Hi, Ive currently upgraded my gear and i have less then 400 passive arp so im gemmed full agility.
Now im sitting at around 1500+ agility.
A guildy mentioned to me that going above 1000 agility was a waste and that he had heard that Attack power / Strengh was more viable.
Rwar advises me to gem some Agility / Crit gems instead of pure agaility.
should I stick with the agility or is it best to get rid of some of this agility and gem other stats.
Im about 300 passive ARP and 37% crit with 2000 melle attack power not in form.

Note: Im missing my new head enchant (will be on tonight)

Ok,
first thing:37% crit with 2000 melle attack power not in form.is UTTERLY IRRELEVANT. Your crit and AP
in cat form matter for feral DPS. Nothing else.
Second, regardless of what that n00b told you, agility is the best stat to stack for feral DPS. The only stat that *
can* be more valuable is armor penetration, but only if stacked at least to ~1000 passive (including gems) or Soft Cap (usually 750-800) + ArP trinket like Grim Toll or Mjolnir Runestone.
If you don't want to stress yourself out with that much armor penetration gear, simply gem agility. It. Is. The. Best. Period.
Third. RAWR told you to use some agility/crit gems. Sometimes using such a gem is the better choice when the socket bonus is *
really* worth it. For instance in your helmet,
232 Feral T9, the socket bonus is 8 agility. Gemming 20 agility will give 20 agility. Gemming 10 agility+10 crit will give 18 agility and 10 crit, which is better than 20 agility alone. But such situations are rare. Generally you are better off using pure agility gems.
Last, but not least, about the play style of pussy cats I recommend that you read:
Good luck!
