How close to oab kill? i'd probaly buy bis or wax/skardyn in your situation, but i'd sim first
Far
684 wax and skardyn was simming higher than hc muggers for me
Still using champion hoc atm too
Skardyn is in the pool ?
I havn't checked ptr, but the vendor is probably similar to the old one where you just buy the normal iL item and upgrade it to max iL. With the upgrade track just being gated til you get the kill/requirement.
so not like buying a heroic mug (if it sims ok to do so,) will be a huge downside if you're going to kill mugzee eventually. But just wait and see, and sim it when it's out
Could also just wait for oab kill
I assume you have wep emb rn
Sim with 2x duskthread and bis
myth priory trinket or hero house of cards for m+?
small minmax to allow for 1 stack dreamstate when you enter your ecl after a pull
don't really gotta play around it, just happens or doesn't, for tiny gain sometimes
This is not the case iirc
if you wrath with no dreamstate, then wrath with dreamstate, you enter ecl, but have 1 left
when you enter combat, it will give you 2 stacker
so it's just an out of combat, precast min max
Gn
Hi there
did any of you guys figure out a way to not suffer (or reduce the pain to a minimum) from the immune drones in MugZee encounter ? Both my trees and my convoke are going full stupid mode on them and it's hurting me to my core
depends if you want the pad answer, or the ethical answer.
pad? theyre immune
I mean tree melee dmg is whatever and convoke sends starsurges and moons to your primary target
pad answer is hold 1:15 treants for 1:45 and voke into the adds when they get broken, instead of 2m when the new set comes down. Can target boss while doing this for half ethical.
So a random wrath or moonfire on them is whatever
Bro it is. You can't lose your mind over min maxing convoking on that fight where you're supposed to have specific positioning
Pad dmg lol
not getting my moonfire refreshed on the boss is also very triggering
That it is
doing this i can't cd on the 4min lust 😢
sure you can
if you want to CD 4m lust, you're holding CD either way
oh yeah i read it too fast, the idea is lose a tree to get 30sec early convoke
i'm...not ?
voke pull + 2min + 4min
are you not running control of the dream?
Your convoke is back up at 1:45
yeah
ok, well your CD is 0, 1:45, 3:45
Then 3:45
3:45 + 15 sec is?
@vital hound 
pull = trees/ca/voke
30sec trees back again -> send with ca
1min15 trees -> send
-> 2min trees -> send with convoke (been up for 15sec, just the control amount) + CA
next voke up at 3.45, get 15sec of control, tadaaaa voke at 4min no loss
Recruitie is talking about being unethical and doing 0, 30, 1:45 then whatever trees into convoke at 4min
If you convoke at 1:45 or 2:00 you still have convoke back at 3:45 and you can then hold it for 15 seconds until 4 min
yeah yeah, i agreed to that earlier,
well, tbh, if you're pushing boss correctly or stopping dps, p1 boss dmg is irrelevant. So technically ethical is subjective here
here's the CDs I did for my kill
with a boost it's kinda sketch when we have a death tbh
had 2 CA+voke+hoc in lust
hence the dps hunt
yeah i dont want to hold my 2nd ca charge cause we are tight being 19
surely next reset you won't be
wont be tight next reset
with all the iL+vendor
but i had hoped some of you had a secret take "spawn trees facing the sun and it'll go well"
but yea, that 2nd CA is more minor last phase boss dam vs first phase, so doesn't matter which you choose
true that
in prog i kept my 2 charges for the 5min burst ofc
only thing that will help is positioning. In opener you can stand far away from them on dirt side, if you voke at 1:45 you can stand far from the furthest one so it only hits the close add while it's broken, and it dies pfast anyways, so might not even get 1 cast on it
last phase is wonky since the bombs can still be up around like 6:30ish iirc, but I try to wait til after those bombs are soaked, and the adds are broken
[known:inserttalentnamehere] iirc
what on earth
is that yap
but might even skip that part of the fight next week
arguing with recruitie over boss dam 
i am this dog
imagine EC there
he doesnt know
defs not a knower 
just lose a bit of uptime but you dont seem to mind since you're looking for a @player
i mean
it does damage
@target might work 🤷
doesnt since end of MOP iirc
hopefully end of this week
try it
no need for ;
gg
am I suppose to know?
I would hope so
people arguing with a multi r1 boss dammer about boss dam
prob just drops half damage in the worst case scenario so not catastrophic (15M in a 9min encounter), still a minmax
hope so, else it's not much of a job
i guess not, but a man can dream : with turbo boost will very rares be auto upgraded to the 8/8 track ?
doubt it
god, have mercy

I'm in the mood for 100 +12 keys
With us having to recraft basically everything, was there any definitive route for embellishments if you're pretty much a m+ player at this point? I've been ascendance since the start, figured i'd check if I go dawnthread now or something
also yay heroic jastor (because no deep mythic prog
)
i believe duskthread is in order
might be yea
about that, does anyone know how it works if you buy a hero track jastor for instance, then kill Myth Gally, can you freely upgrade the jastor to MM or do you have to spend 3 coins on another jastor ?
are u rank 1 boomie yet
I don't think its intuitive(?)
I'm going with the assumption that its not
however I could be wrong
Forced to play resto gg
so am i
its just better that way imo
assume the worst if its not the case neat
whats funny is I was just wondering about circlet, but its already been updated lol
the last vendor sold normal iL items that you had to upgrade. But we shall see when it goes live
it would make sense that it would be the same, with boss kills unlocking the items track to be upgradable, but never know with them.
I hope they are same ilvl as raid drops
So i dont have to upgrade jastor
Otherwise im fuked
just wouldn't make sense for ppl who havn't already done the content
making ppl buy the same item 2 times, or hold their coins forever is silly
Blizz is silly tho
wouldn't your upgrade be free? or I guess valorstones only
if that's how it's implemented, gg noobs
Pi is still in the game and aug too

Why would it
true but then again, this being a bad luck protection instead of a catch up mechanic, i'm afraid they wont go deep into the "let's not have friction"
simply craft ring. I wonder if that recraft "feature" still exists
doesnt
I have crafted 1 already
But still my 2nd best is 658
It is what it is tho, gonna find out soon
it's right there
If i have to do 10 extra dungeons to upgrade the ring or not 
free crests just waiting for you to loot
I want the cauldron ring tho, buyer stole it last time 
On god
kinda funny our entire raid wanted to be on one armed bandit reclear until we got a buyer then its like nahh no point lmao
it was me
I was the buyer
I knew it
this is the command :
you shall not spam
Very helpful
Ur already were without buying......
damn twist
/castsequence reset=3 celestial alignment; null Should work
Ok thanks !
Are there any buffs/nerfs coming to Boomy with the patch today?
No
Been so long since I played boomy, just getting back into it. Is there a plater profile that shows a different color for mobs that don't have sunfire/moonfire?
Very helpful

Is this before or after love thy neighbor?
you must love your neighbor as you love your feathers
unconditionnaly
Has anyone been able to test around a bit with the belt? Will it be good enough to take a slot and should we craft somewhere else
belt and gloves/feet have the same stat budget, so you could craft either of these
and the final ilvl of the belt is 700 iirc ? will most probably be bis but it's too early to tell, with the tuning still being in progress
what is my chinese tank doing
he just dunked the 6 bombs alone there
they spawned on the same place
Goat
Bros tryna push keys and doesn't know the tech....
they dont tank there ususally
also i learned that u can sigil of chains the bombs
to put them all in the same place
he did it
damn does it mean we can vortex them too ?
probably
they do spawn from the boss, right ?
yea
Are you sure he sigil'd them?
Doesn't seem to me like they are tagged as mobs at all
Well neither are the bombs on Gally adds and vortex works on those
i mean
they do have a health bar
at least in Mythic
So what's everybody's plans for their dinars?
heroic jastor diamond
you have the recommended general order pined by Gamz 😉
but ultimatly it will depend on what gear you have missing and what you can buy
Bis in slots, id buy mythic jastor if i had it unlocked tho
I simmed mine a few days ago, but, I wanted to see if there was emerging wisdom. I think my sims align with Gamz
I got Best in Slot from kill (currently on Mugzee) and had planned to grab first dinar House of Cards, then last two on Moxie and Jester ring
RL saying though he's looking at folks to vent a dinar on Heroic Jester ring since it could be a bigger deal for those folks, and those that do wil lget prio on the mythic one if it drops, super confused
wut
if you're going for the rankings, i guess he has a point
it's an incentive to not wait too long before redeeming your dinar, and end the progress asap
ig using dinar on the best upgrade possible is smart if you are looking at it short-mid term
You could literally see only handful of rings through all of farm
I wouldnt take that gamble
If you're close to starting gally prog or going to kill gally soon, no point buying a heroic one
you need gear to kill these bosses though
Spend your first dinar on something else and by the time you've got second dinar you probably already killed gally
for MugZee sure, for Gally i'd argue not
Nah just saying you probably have better first dinar options on mythic track compared to sending your first dinar on a heroic item
What's the diff in upgrade between M HoC and H jastor tho
defo, what i said before was as a short/mid term option, heroic jastor is a go imo
but I also think
that there's no rush at all
any rank you would get rn is irrelevant
and you still get boost from ilvl + raid buff
All ranks are irrelevant
ranks help you recruit tho
there's zero rush in getting these items
getting heroic jastor on people won't net you 200 ranks extra
Bribe them
i need the money to buy full t3
basically; the usage of dinars on heroic item is just a feelsbad moment
and won't actually affect your prog
gl
Need is a very strong word there
T3 is garbonzo

u dont actually need Myth track stuff to get a r1 or do r1 keys
so if u dont have access to myth just take hc
bis sprocket and roulette wheel
sprocket what?
Cloak
cloakk probs
ah
Isn't wheel not on the vendor
true isn't it only like effect stuff
Nah
It's basically all raid weapons, trinkets, cantrips and very rares
normal jewelry isn't on the list
How long is the extendo gonna be today chat
too long
but roulette wheel isnt normal
it gives +1 Luck
Where is the new vendor?
hi
is there a Dinar purchase guide for boomie?
just sim yourself on whats best to get
ok i just saw the pinned message. ty
Hey guys, what's better: Myth track priory trinket or hero track House of Cards for m+ ?
Did u sim it
Don't sims for m+ not really tell you anything?
Tells you ST but nothing else
You can sim ST, AoE, and you can even do advanced M+ sims with specific routes. Lots of ways to get data and triangulate an answer.
"nothing else" is certainly a way of taking it I guess
U can run a st sim and take context from it pretty easily
I suppose Buddy isn't gonna answer tho
how would you know

Twist only does r1 keys
how would YOU know
My body is a machine that turns wow content into rank 1s
You guys should grow up
Just banter innit
I was respectables number one fan and groupie yesterday during stream on gally prog

are these boss dmg
You don’t wanna see boss dmg
respectable is a known padder
who cares about encounter dmg tbh
Floor pov merchant
except one one armed bandit
I padded that boss cuz I was always out of range
I don’t know how to play that class!
you do not beat me on Bandit padding
I "padded" p1 cuz i was boomy for add dmg
Ur trolling in my heroic pug?
i mean on this boss, the prio are the assistant so it's kinda the only one where a good player would have a better overall parse than a boss dmg parse ig
those Dynamite booties get DESTROYED
single target p2 with sunfire on presents because boss needed dead

My assistant damage is okay
I just hit whatever was in range while I ran around kicking coins
Boomy just feels like a discount shadow priest on that fight
but I'm probably just bad so
What's sad, it's more like a goodwill shadow priest
idk about discount
i think i did our SP's damage on prog
you don't top assistant damage and you don't top boss damage but both of them together you're pretty solid
on the assistants at least. boss dmg was... horrid
Maybe ur sp is bad
nah i'm just him
but our evoker has started playing aug on reclear so damage is back to being fake
look at the aug getting PI
he still beats me
@wraith kiln 
Why does the other do less dam
no he is very based
He miss like 1 set or
thats criminal
How
i mean i did so to kill the boss, assistants were a pain
kept everything everytime for them
that’s bad ass
Did you drop dots on boss for half the fight ?
ofc not, was playing kindling
Beat by the tank is criminal
Kindling is not enough on that fight to keep dots up in my experience
Blud probably convokes the adds
didnt play voke in OAB prog
Terrorism
Make one of ur locks make a sacrifice then u all could do boss dam
Big gamer
whatever it takes to kill right
No
Yes
who cares about boss damage anyway, we were doing a stop dps iirc
Don’t listen to arctic he’s a padder
Lock wasn't doing whatever it takes
Incorrect
Arctic right
I was actively not padding as a firemage
Lock loses way less playing Destro than whatever you've done to your boomie there lmao
Those make us die
That's not pad
Also, I promise I'm not looking at that timing and just sending CDs on cooldown
Not pressing flamestrike or anything that's just spread ignite
you dont have to explain yourself
Lmao
not sure if it was asked or answered: in compendium it says myth track, but my guild is nowhere near myth mugzee, would it be smart to use chips on hero tracks?
no seriously u genuinely do not have to explain yourself
Gear during prog is better then gear after prog
it will depend on your character and its gear. It will probs be better to get a m+ myth track trinket if you dont have one
If you buy the heroic version can you upgrade the dinar item to mythic
not that we've been told
Is this confirmed ?
I’m asking
he was asking
not best-in-slots but the other ones are probably fine, can sim yourself to find out
Oh I need to put on my damn glasses
well anyway, if you look at boomy parses on OAB it's all bombs padd, unsufferable
could never be one of those
Contacts mate
there hasnt been any mention from blizzard about upgrading hero to myth track
De way
The upgrade heroic to mythic is something they will add later when enough people cry ofc
questions usually end with question marks?
One ounce of comprehension
u familiar with the word 'can'?
You’re asking a lot from me
soda can
To switch to a different keyboard
there was verb-subject inversion tho
For one question mark
What kind of keyboard doesn’t have question marks ? Chinese ?
Oh yeah makes sense
thank you for info!
I’m trying to set good examples
If I’m gonna type in a cringe class discord I might as well spread positivity
Who you calling cringe
I will not be slandered
arctic could never
So true

That's Lakers role


ayyo this recolor kinda hard
yes that's a hard yes
i absolutely hated the anniversary one but at least this one has pants
finally a pant
who needs pants
Me when they only make feral mogs and the shoulders are some big ass claws
Holy Knight Sommers
arctic stop padding with fire mage istg
i didnt see anywhere mentioned, are cartel chips retroactive: aka i killed with guild heroic gally or do i need to do it again when it is released?
looks sick on female nelf too
???
prob dont have to kill it agai
Like the fuck is that suppose to be
Dratnos and Xyronic gave my transmog a 8/10 I am the transmog genius I will for sure get good use of this set
That headpiece is absolutely trash
How u have moose antlers and claw shoulders like holy fuck
can definitely trust the opinion of dratnose and xyronic...
top tier boomkin haters
looks dumb af

Toxic
they will hit you with the "your transmog looks very VOLATILE"
Type shit
bro what is this
So true
What someone who has never seen a moose thinks antlers look like
yeah that guy is dumb
"i identify as a moose and as a bear"
Why does the moose have claws
malfurion is like dumbest lore character or
Those are bear paws homie
U might be spectrum
Malfurion was as dumb for fighting Illidan as we are dumb for fighting Iridikron

Holy based mog
What’s wrong with liking men 
None of this matters cause CM druid set is still the best xmog in the game
my guy looks like she's ready for a fight
Nice shoulders man
CM ?

Bro equipped some footsoldiers gear, slapped a tabard on and called it good looking 😭
I think it’s called lovely black dress?

Dripped out the wazoo
Yea but he's restarted
reference directly above your message, I am doubling down... looks even more so in the astral form
Wax myth or Jug hero for m+?
to be fair we typed it at the same time 👀
probs jug but sim it
probably heroic jug but also sim it
i'd say myth wax
you could also play both
facts
Is sim called Dungeon Slice for simming m+?
if you are pugging, or there are some survivability checks the wax may come in clutch, but if its a raw dps comparison the jug Heroic wins
1 target 5 minute patchwerk or MDT sim
no, sim in 1t5m or use MDT sim
All the option other than patchwerk are beans
the musical fruit?
they are both proc based, honestly can you take advantage of whichever one more than the other is dependant on the procs, pulls, and the cds you have avail/running.
M+ so variable typically just lean into the more consistent option (H jug for dps vs Wax for less dps but more ofset verse for survivability)
This is why arctic just says sim it
/me when I take a trinket for more survivability
Trinket for survivability is a heck of a cook
Killing faster is survivability
survivability and damage tho

One PI = one Aug nerf surely 
if you die just blame the healer and or tank 👀
dying = less dps than the ofset of the other trinket xD
but correct just misdirect blame for getting killed always
we are never the problem as a paper spec which tears in a slightly fast breeze
it is the healers fault
Vers is a shit survivability stat anyway
It’s not that it’s shit. It’s just that other trinkets are better if you have the choice
I mean just look at murlok.io 10 ppl are running candle, it all depends on drops, vaults and what you can get your hands on
opportunity for choice is the determining factor you are correct there
What the heck is murlock io
I'm so glad we use murlok
LOL
I wonder why someone would use candle and not jug hmmm
Jug >
Having to stand still for the vers is also cringe
Prob bc Frexa doesnt raid
Have you started raiding yet? Tuned in a couple weeks ago and you said you were going back
Yeah

bro im just walking around like an NPC trying to not run into people
im 0-2 on living on that boss so far
Same but I progged it 
Yeah in prog you just learn every movement and it’s pretty easy to stay safe
yeah if you learn the movement one move at a time it's pretty easy im sure
Until someone under-moves the suck and poor you trying to get enough space to finish a cast gets catapulted into death
I was thrown into mythic queen last season after switching guild for trial and it was hella confusing to not have progged anything past p1
Just put squisheis graphic on 2nd monitor
That’s on you for being greedy 
i have it up, but i feel like it's hard to looka t in the middle of the boss
or at least understand where tf we are in the sequence

Im sure ill live someday
i built the great wall of china w/ drills on my first kill
Classic m+er comes to raid and dies on repeat
was supposed to be the L set in mid, but i def dropped it incorrectly
Did you join an 8/8 raid team tets?
yes
He's jastor so he can poosh
wtf is the L set
H to m is only a 0.7% for me
The pre beams set
is that a thing, we just go far every time idk
Since you don’t have time to make a line and come back
Last set before 2nd knock
Whats the server eta ?
idk we just drop every drill set the same every time instead of switching it up on 1 random set near the end
Requires everyone eligible for drills to move out in time
It’s tight at
Most groups stay stacked then do behind, side one, then up one
Seems easier to have only the people selected move slightly different for one set but depends on your raiders ig
Liquid did the L set to minimize movement and optimize DPS but probably isn't necessary at this point
11 PST sooo 2.5ish more hours?
what else is going on at that point
melee are doing that mine soak anyway
Yes but movement = lost dps
And if you have people who won't move or move slow they fuck everyone else over
What are the chances servers back in time AND work properly
I’d be surprised if the vendor worked on server launch
I am pretty sure we have wiped a lot less at that point of the fight than the guilds who do L formation drills
and the boss hasn't been a damage check since week 2
Think I had to pop a mine right before getting those drills last night
Oh okay so, instead of everyone having 5+ seconds to move out to bait location, you have everyone stacked and then assume the guy insta moves out to not drill the raid?
Id say my guild is pretty shit right, and we didn't wipe to drills there
We wiped to mine people and th lazers
yeah that can happen but that would happen no matter what strat you pick
Ye it was fine
It's the same as every other set where people eligible take one step back
But your strat requires 8 people to big move and do the right thing at the right time
Vs 3 people to make one minor adjustment to the same way of doing the mech throughout the rest of the fight
?
You don't move to bait if you're not eligible?
Not 8, should be 3-4 people that are eligible
Yes but one step back to bait off the stack vs move 15 yards away
it's the same people moving out, just sacrificing 2 globals more to move and makes the drills a lot more consistent
Because it's the last drills
You just move out on the conveyor belts or move in the conveyor belts depending on which side you’re on.. Your weak aura will tell you if you’re eligible for drills or not.
Don’t over complicate it, why risk the whole raid getting stunned when you can just mitigate it with extremely predictable movement
idk seems omega troll to have different rules for different drill sets
we do same movement and baits every drill set
You either move different to bait or you move different to drop the last drill
I mean every drill is different
The only inconsistency is who has gotten the drills already and who hasn’t lol
On that set one side goes out on the belt and drops then move in for lazer and the other can drop then move in with belt for lazer as they spawn
And given the state of auras today an "l drill set" or RL call is entirely standard and clearly not an issue for guilds
Ultimately it's what do you value more, smaller movement or "simpler" drop patterns
A weak aura pops onto your screen and says “NO DRILLS” or “BAIT DRILLS” depending on if you’ve had it or not
yeah and if it says NO DRILLS you just stand in the group, and if it says BAIT DRILLS you move out to bait
Yup
It’s the simplest fight of the tier cause it’s always the same outside of minor inconsistencies ie different players getting different drill sets or bombs being different based on colour composition
and you move out to the same position every time relative to what quadrant the boss is in
You can basically get full uptime as a caster if you just utilise the belts
but apparently the most popular strat is to change up the rules of where you go to bait on a random drill set at the most hectic part of the fight

some drills are directly followed by laser beams, hence the L tech
to come back to the group soon enough
Do you prefer minor movements or simpler drop patterns though that’s the real questions
I actually prefer both weirdly enough but what would we know
simpler drop patterns
yeah we were more of a "use the conveyer belt" team
wtf is movement gonna get you on a fight without a dmg check
Just cast while moving when you starfall smh
mmmh, if you can kill the boss before purple orbs, you make the fight way easier, so it's not a proper dps check but gaining dps can surely make the progress shorter (and easier)
but this move is nice i like it
The first purple orbs are pretty braindead
I mean guilds do ever decreasing amounts of damage as you go down the ranks so damage optimization is always relevant
The argument of "boss isn't a damage check" is irrelevant. non-HoF guilds aren't going to beat first orbs, and optimizing DPS could be the difference between beating second orbs
Yeah but as you go down the ranks over complication is also a huge problem
^
also man this is not true
Right but what I'm telling you is the complication of the overlap is the same either way
I was doing a VOD review earlier of someone who killed Sprocket last week
they had 4 people dead for half the fight
You either change movement pattern on the drill baits or the drill drops
Either way it's different patterns
3 of us died to the gateway being cooked like 6 weeks ago and we killed it
The only inconsistency is the players getting it. The pattern never, ever changes
And I’m pretty sure that bomb set before big purple beams is a healer bomb set iirc
Do u always go outside in?
Every single drill bait is just "go to the wall, wait for drill, walk back to the group" every time
yes
Ok, so there's the disconnect
So you're telling me blue side first drill drop you're moving out to bait instead of just stepping back onto conveyor if you get drills?
Cuz it's not always the same if u don't do that
Cause that's crazy nonsense
That drill set is free af with my movement and grief with yours
Blue side first drill is the most free of them all
Was blue inner or outer at that point
Yes, but not with the movement you're telling me is the same every time
So is it the same every time or is that one different?
Most the drills if ur blue are going right from either middle of conveyor or from far left to right
Because then you're changing drill patterns and the argument about changing for the L set is a total non starter
The one ur doing there is far right to left, which isn't done anywhere else
The way they do it, it's the same
Cuz they always go outside in
Not middle of conveyor out, or far left to middle conveyor
Which means basically every other drill set on the fight is harder all so you can do the same pattern on the bad overlap instead of changing pattern for that one set
Idk, both are clearly functional strategies but to say one is obviously better than the other is weird.
Unless, his blue side does do it while riding conveyor
And he lied hmm
But shrug doesn't really matte
do not recommend playing moonkin on this boss it is horrible
boss is really cool though
for UI related questions just DM me on discord @itsgamz
first drill blue side
free af
Are we really going to be using this new belt? 😦
just step on conveyor and ride it until it stops
no clue but yeah probably
So sad it's my crafted with socket
GG
The belt wont come out for like 6 weeks youll be fine
Bro why are we arguing boss 5 strats just copy good boomy video like gamz video and stop trying new things
Oh, sick
But we LOVE borrowed power
apparently my guild is the one with the new things since Liquid killed it with weird strat
and people see Liquid doing optimized strat with the best players in the world
and then do that and risk wiping to bad drills
Wait you didn’t watch the 45 minute dratnos video??
instead of making it consistently the same every time
I follow raidplan 
Okay just don't answer the question I guess lmao
We did but it’s not the answer you want
Lmao
So yea ur 2nd blue ones in p2
No you haven't
U go far then have blue run to melee
You've said the first blue drop doesn't move out to bait, I've asked how you reconcile that with the "same drop every time" claim
And crickets
What we said that the people who are eligible move out to bait
I never said that first blue doesn't move out?
And then they run in with drills as the bomb goes off and then you stack for purple
Hello I have come to mediate
The approach I gave my raiders boils down to this: "GO TO THE FUCKING WALL WITH DRILLS THEN WALK BACK TO THE GROUP"
this never changes
it is entirely consistent across every single bait
Based

yeah the conveyor is on the wall?
you can start the fight on the wall even
Stepping back onto conveyor is not the pre-move out so you're dropping on the way back to the boss you do on the overlap
One conveyor goes to wall one goes to boss, blue can ride it out, red needs to be out and rides it in
The conveyor literally can take you to the spot you need to be
U can ride it as red,
I don’t remember the colours but one goes in one goes out
mm our red side just moves natty with them
There's negative things going on at 30 seconds into the fight lol
Okay if we're not gonna read what I'm typing and just keep repeating the same thing
https://youtu.be/_6gwmuntqDQ?t=8
https://youtu.be/uk4rcSucf-I?t=12
These are our initial drills from either side 
do not recommend playing moonkin on this boss it is horrible
boss is really cool though
for UI related questions just DM me on discord @itsgamz
I'm just not gonna bother
Ahahaha ok
Maybe we make Draco and gamz make echoes raid guide
why is Draco in here
videos are for losers
i hate when i dont read what someone is typing and continue to repeat the same thing

What the
He’s here educating the masses deux
hungry for chicken deux
very S U S
Gamz wasn’t doing a good enough job explaining so he bought in the cavalry
that's fair
Hi guys, noob question maybe. On really large CD pulls, if I cap on power while moonfiring everything, should I just send a starfall and go back to moonfiring? Or should I go into CA/incarn and go for the usual rotation and go back to moonfiring after it’s over
Assuming the pack lives long enough
Definitely not the 2nd option
@fervent merlin HUH
You can send a starfall but realistically it just means you are delaying your CDs
I think most people just default to dotting everything into FoE into incarn
U can send a Starfall if u want
Draco is used to explaining raid mechanics all day, he does it in rle
Nah I didn't even know that people did the drills differently to us and thought it was funny
First two drill baits on this are double the necessary movement
Yeah that’s what I do. Feels yuck overcapping and sometimes it’ll bother me enough to send a starfall but if I don’t dot everything it means my cds are later and it means my disgusting dps allies in my key can take my dmg
So I'll repeat myself, it's clearly a functional strategy, but to say it's objectively better is wierd
Yeah and I never really gave much of a crap about that, I wanted to keep it simple and consistent because the boss had no dps check post nerf as long as everyone lived
and less chaos means more living
Ahhhh I see so literally just dot everything even if it means overcapping
I’m starting to think we did it wrong and tytherius is onto something with how confident he is
To get into cds faster
Generally, yessem
It's not me homoe
It's literally liquids strat lmao
So if you wanna argue with Max and their analysts you go crazy
@maximum
Unless they’re fodder mobs like the ones as you enter the church in priory, lil kobolds at start of dfc etc a sunfire will suffice usually cause melee meat grinder just kills them
Where does yellow healer go if they get drills?
I don't doubt that
On first set
But their drill baits aren't one of them
Let it out
im already crazy
they will not, popping order is that green and purple gets them during drills
Max has actually acknowledged their starts being not optimal once normal guilds start killing jt
iirc
Thanks guys!
I appreciate accepting suboptimal movement patterns for consistency, but I was literally asking whether it was consistent and not getting answers
yellow is always first
yellow is always first ye
If I recall correct I calculated that we had a 1 in 36(?) chance of the green potentially being an issue with our MW+hpally setup, but in the 50 pulls it took us to kill it
Ah for us purple was first, yellow was 2nd and doesn't really have time to go back
we never lowrolled that chance
only green can get sus
so 
on the first set
Wtf is yellow
Oh NS markers?
if you have more ranged healers that is
also drailbaits on first few sets are really whatever, if you try to optimize movement there
you're missing the point
yeah, it goes purple->yellow->green->orange in popping order, the only one there who has an issue is green, orange can pop after drills, yellow+purple pops before drills (and because of our 2x melee healer setup, we had an incredibly low chance of green overlapping anything)
Well it started with the last drill set being an L
only dangerous drillbaits are the ones with big beams
But I then asked if he always goes outside in and they do
you can actually see our priest Mikey return to come bait red side drills from yellow here @dry compass https://youtu.be/uk4rcSucf-I?t=13
we started out with draco's, evolved into a mix of liquid/draco
hes being a lazy bastard and not fully moving onto the raid 
as long as you don't cut off people and don't put drills on group you gucci
yep, I just fully went with "if we can do the exact same thing everywhere, it's worth losing a global or two"
people know when we call to bait drills it means "run to wall, walk to group"
bonus here is that having done this in alt raids with groups where they do the whole "just step out behind lol" strategy, you're not at the mercy of your slowest raider greeding a global
and putting a drill in your asshole
or trying to move from one side of the room to the other while slaloming drills

if someones slow doing this, the worst they've done is put drills far away from the group and force the baiting range to run around them 
the real struggle btw
is how both NS and liquid
has decided
that the red marker goes on blue side
and the blue marker goes on red side
https://youtu.be/XI97ISEAgP4?si=-pX4CufKdEjkmKEy
@worldly matrix how can star not be at risk of bad drills 🤨 am I missing something. I would have to BEELINE back to the other side or is this order just different to yours
your first guys slow I think
can watch mikey do it here
Actually so true
then idk, mikey has enough time to make it back to us if he wanted, he stops a bit earlier though in the video
Altought it looks like we all banded together with blue left and red right
you have to
the way mines are laid out
or there'd be uh
incidents

well, the way mines and the WA's are laid out I guess
if you flipflopped the WA assigns I guess the other way could work too 
Ah ig as the drills debuff comes out here's nowhere near but the delay on first drill spawn allows it to be fine
Sheesh stonks is up to bad I can’t sell
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2456237673?t=1h20m51s oh he has a pov of it
mikeyeast went live on Twitch. Catch up on their World of Warcraft VOD now.
from this weeks raid
he does drop one drill cos no speedy
Damn bros FPS is insane
welcome to a guild with an elvui dev
we just actually follow his guidelines
and for some reason
our fps aint shit

But yeah ig you almost always spawn one "bad" but it doesn't fuck it up ever for anyone
Yo where's the guidelines
yeah it's at the spot where literally no one will ever go 
and he still does go back to the group
Can I get that kind of FPS with aui or am I cooked chat
idk what the shit aui is
Atrocity
oh
no

he hates that thing with a passion
says its hot garbage for performance
GG time to remake Ui
Where's his guidelines tho
uuh
ngl I do not remember
Gatekeepers......
Is there "unseen" value in having an on use trinket vs 2 passive ones? In sims for me a 678 signet is .3% better than alch trinket. However I feel like the prio dmg from being able to choose when u have this increased dmg is worth a lot more than .3%. Is that right or would u guys just stick with alch trinket and go for a jastors or something with cartel chip
Just follow the guidelines guys
Guidelines 
Need atrocity UI, cuz who ever makes mage weakauras are fucking artistic
you are terminally on Twitter
if you haven't seen the guidelines
that's on you, maya
Convoke does damage in a burst window, on use gives on demand stats in that window
Alch trinket, as in the profession one?
Not sure what you mean by "unseen" value, it's very much seen
Show sim
I say unseen because in a sim its only marginally stronger. And yes I mean the alchemy trinket
Aoe talents, ST sim
Elunes isn't bursty on ST, on use is good in raid to pair with big pulls
I only care about m+ so should I sim dungeon slice or something instead?
For all intents and purposes elune is all that matters to me
MDT sim / a combination of other sims
There's no real one sim for moonkin in m+, MDT is often the preferred one though
It's also just a little bit of common sense right. Often around every 2 mins or so a tank will do a big pull in higher keys to line up with DPS cooldowns / their defensives. Having an on use for stuff like that is very good
Yeah thats the exact point I was trying to get at but worded poorly. I think theres just a lot of extra value in choosing when I get my stat buff, so its value is even larger than what a sim would say.
Some good feelycraft
Well a sim would tell you that, you're just not doing the sim that would
Idk gear compare surely the problem
If I dont actually have the signet to sim it how else would I do it?
You can add an item in top gear
