Ghostcrawlers words on cat dps and Fb in pvp

Cats might be falling behind other melee classes. This is something we are monitoring and discussing. There are some new glyphs coming in 3.1 which are more PvE-oriented and that might help some.

The cat rotation can be complicated, but at the moment we're okay with that. If you play a little sloppy with the rotation (e.g. ignoring Rake sometimes or not keeping Rip up 100%) you generally just suffer a dps loss rather than the whole thing collapsing down around you.

Swipe (Cat). Yum.

Ferocious Bite is on our list of "probably too bursty in PvP." It's at the bottom of the list, but we will still likely chill it out a little.

Just blue-tagging this in case someone have not read it yet. This post was originally made by Ghostcrawler on the US forums :-)
