On this page, we list the best gems, enchants, flasks, potions, and food you can get for your Feral Druid, based on your stat priority. We also give budget alternatives. This page is updated for World of Warcraft Patch 12.0.5.

1.

The recommended choices for all content are:

  • Use Indecipherable Eversong Diamond Icon Indecipherable Eversong Diamond in your first socket.
  • All other sockets should have Flawless Masterful Peridot Icon Flawless Masterful Peridot or Flawless Quick Amethyst Icon Flawless Quick Amethyst.

However, it is generally advised that you simulate your character for gems, as individual gear pieces have a big influence on which gem might be your best ones. The above one-size-fits-all approach will serve you well in all types of content though.

Optimal Consumables

In addition to enchants and improvements to your gear, making sure you come prepared with the right consumables to endgame content has a big impact on your performance.

3.1.

Flask

Flasks are a good way to adjust your secondary stats if you're lacking in a particular area with your gear setup. While you can pick any of the four secondaries with your choice, we generally recommend:

  • Flask of the Magisters Icon Flask of the Magisters — provides Mastery, consistently the strongest secondary.

You can also obtain a flask of your choice from Cauldron of Sin'dorei Flasks Icon Cauldron of Sin'dorei Flaskss provided by Alchemists.

3.2.

Potions

Light's Potential Icon Light's Potential is your best option, and should be paired with major cooldowns and Bloodlust Icon Bloodlust / Heroism Icon Heroism. You can also obtain Fleeting Light's Potential Icon Fleeting Light's Potential from Voidlight Potion Cauldron Icon Voidlight Potion Cauldron provided by Alchemists.

A note on Draught of Rampant Abandon Icon Draught of Rampant Abandon is that, while it's technically stronger, one wrong step will pacify you inside the void zone that it occasionally spawns. It only takes 1-2 GCDs (or a cancelled Convoke the Spirits Icon Convoke the Spirits!) inside this to wipe out the extra value, so playing this potion generally isn't worth it.

Silvermoon Health Potion Icon Silvermoon Health Potion is the current best healing potion. Using this has a 5-minute cooldown, but multiple can be consumed in an extended boss fight should it go on long enough. Additionally, Warlock's Healthstone Icon Healthstones do not share a cooldown with other healing consumables. Remember to use it as well if you are holding one!

3.3.

Food Buff

As Agility is back to being the most valuable stat in Midnight, you should be eating a Silvermoon Parade Icon Silvermoon Parade or other primary stat Feast if possible. If this isn't provided by your group, stick to Royal Roast Icon Royal Roast personal food instead.

3.4.

Augment Rune

In addition, if you can afford it, you should use Void-Touched Augment Rune Icon Void-Touched Augment Runes to increase your primary stat. These can be obtained through the weekly housing quest, but remember: Augment Runes are expensive and disappear on death, so use them wisely!

3.5.

Other Consumables

Alongside standard buff consumables, there are a handful of other items worth keeping hold of - especially in Mythic+:

  • Gateway Control Shard Icon Gateway Control Shard — allows you to auto-interact with nearby Warlock Demonic Gateway Icon Demonic Gateways.
  • Void-Touched Drums Icon Void-Touched Drums — grants a weaker 15% Haste Bloodlust Icon Bloodlust effect on your party when used. These are still affected by Sated Icon Sated, so should only be used if you have no party member that provides it naturally.
  • Void-Shrouded Tincture Icon Void-Shrouded Tincture — Midnight's invisibility potion, which can be used to skip certain trash pulls in Mythic+ if a pack will detect you during Prowl Icon Prowl. Bear in mind this does share a cooldown with your offensive potion Light's Potential Icon Light's Potential.
