Feral Tank Druid Basics In Wrath Classic
Despite falling into the B tier on ourWotLK PvE Tank Tier List, Feral Druids still do an excellent job tanking inClassic Wrath of the Lich King.While they received a slight nerf when it comes to diminishing returns on avoidance, the biggest issue with their “demise” and I’m using that term lightly, is the buffs other tank specs received. Make no mistake about it, if you’re tanking as a Bear inClassic Wrath, you’re going to do a great job.
This guide will focus specifically on level 80 content and abilities. It will be updated throughout theWrath of the Lich Kingexpansion as more content rolls out.

Feral Bear Druid Skill Rotation and Cooldowns
As a tank, you have to ensure that you maintain aggro on the enemy targets while also staying alive. Sure, the healers can help you out on that second part, but you have to make sure you’re using your survivability cooldowns as well. When not actively tanking, it’s important to also ensure you’re doing the most DPS you can, especially since you’ll be inCat Form.
We’re going to split up the rotations by each raid scenario.
Feral Druid Single Target Tanking Rotation
Feral Druid AOE Tanking Rotation
If the fight only requires one tank or you have an opportunity to deal more damage the rotation is the same as the Feral DPS Cat rotation.
For more information, take a look at ourFeral DPS Guide.
