Ferocious Availability and Range
Ferocious is listed as a World 10 only perk for weapons and pets. Weapon Ferocious has a higher range than pet Ferocious.
Type | Availability | Range |
|---|---|---|
Weapon | World 10 Weapons | 20% - 40% |
Pet | World 10 Pets | 5% - 15% |
Perfect Ferocious Rolls
A perfect Ferocious roll is the highest value in its range. Since the weapon and pet ranges are different, the perfect values are also different.
Ferocious Type | Perfect Roll |
|---|---|
Weapon Ferocious | 40% |

Ferocious and Untouchable Interaction
Ferocious requires the player to take damage before the effect activates. The supplied data specifically states that Ferocious does not activate if the damage is dodged with Untouchable.
This means Ferocious and Untouchable can have a tradeoff. Untouchable can help avoid direct damage, but a dodged attack will not trigger Ferocious from that hit.

Is Ferocious Worth It?
Ferocious can be worth using for players who want extra damage and are comfortable with a perk that activates after taking damage. A high weapon roll can provide a large damage boost, especially when the player can keep fighting safely after being hit.
It may be less comfortable for players who avoid damage consistently or rely heavily on Untouchable, because dodged attacks do not trigger Ferocious. The perk is best evaluated based on the player's build, survivability, and how often they are actually taking direct damage.
