Feral DPS slightly OP?

58% crit chance raid buffed makes me puke. I'll have to start stacking ArP. :D
My current list of BiS gear for kitties has them at 63% crit gemming for agi and 60% gemming for ArP.... scary...
Part of the problem is that feral kitties will be doing ~7.2-4k dps in BiS gear and not many of the other class will be keeping up. Certaintly not your class mates the boomkin. *grumbles*

To be fair there isnt a large difference in dps charts,
( the way i feel about recount is that it creates resentment about other classes being more overpowered )
some classes just have a far more easier rotation setup than other but im guessing played right the difference between overall damage isnt really anything to get worked up over

In actual response to the OP (shocking, I know): skilled and equally geared players of all classes in my guild meet or exceed my numbers on fights that favor them as do I them on fights that favor me. Specifically, I'm vying for position with Warlocks, Rogues and Mages, usually.
Ulduar is pretty friendly to melee DPS overall with many situations where we're able to basically follow the boss around and DPS nonstop while the ranged has to make more significant adjustments or deal with interruptions. On Ignis, for example, when I'm tossed up in the air, I can still attack him all the way up and all the way down. On Hodir, I have nearly 100% DPS time as long as I'm spatially aware and pre-position for upcoming events. On Mimiron, with (again) situational awareness, I can have probably 92-95% DPS time on all active phases of the fight. The list goes on.

im a hunter,and tbh i dont think our dps needs a buff/nerf but when i first saw some movies i was like "WTF?" because in the raids,im usualy at 3,2k overall and around 3,8k-4,2k on bosses(10 man) and in hc,more..but when i saw this druid at 8,8k on wcm,i was srsly confused..ive never raided with a feral druid whos topping the dps atm in our guild,but rogues/mages/warlocks usualy top the dps in the pugs i am in..atm its a lock topping our dps meter,and then me,then a shammy and so on..alltho whatever i do i cant reach higher dps on normal bosses...exept on thaddius for example...

Actually 7.5 is the calculated avg :P You can burst higher and as with all things reliant on RNG you can be lower as well on it's whim alone. :(

WoL's graphs can be nice to look at to see point-in-time DPS information.

Feel free to sift through my guild's logs if you want examples of WoL parses. It's such an amazing site.

yea Im still trying to get a handle on wol, Im to used to wws and in comparison wol seems kind alien.
Dig around in my guild's stuff if you want. With WoL, always hover everything, click everything, try everything. The data-presentation is very dense and there's a ton of it. After a few weeks ago, you'll start seeing data from shield-procs on Val'anyr that one of our priests (Thordy) got. Very interesting to see that. From the parses it accounts for an addition 3-6% effective healing which is pretty amazing for just equipping a weapon.

I like the changes. In theory it was designed to reduce low geared kitties dps with out significantly nerfing top geared kitties. And hitting the base vaules was definately the best way to do this I'd say since they are the part that does not scale.

and your DPS falls like a lead balloon.
I wonder how the lead balloon was floating in the first place...

It was in a pool of Mercury. Don't ask why it sank.

would it not depend on the ballons size, the thickness of the lead, and what gas filled it?
o.O capcha was iousx
LOL @ that CAPTCHA. That's one of the best I've seen.
As to the lead balloon thing ... wasn't there a Mythbusters episode on this? They used ridiculously thin (less than paper) sheets of lead and filled up a closed shape with helium...
...hmm, and here I was just trying to make a joke.
