Or maybe the raid wasn’t just turbo rot

hi,how big of an increase is best in slot weapon from bandit compared to crafted weapon ?

#

St and aoe

sudden flame
#

dps loss if its heroic

ebon parcel
#

Hi
How does my rotation changes with best in slots and on use trinket?

sudden flame
#

on use trinket with first ca/incarn convoke, best in slot with second incarn/ca

crisp scaffold
sudden flame
#

so you are chosing what to buy with the dinar or what?

#

might aswell just sim it

#

its definitely a damage increase

crisp scaffold
sudden flame
#

Ye i mean its definitley a sim angle

#

Can't tell you the dps increase off hand because it will be different for everyone

crisp scaffold

#

That's not entirely true

delicate perch
#

ya that's a take and a half

severe hollow
crisp scaffold
#

Wouldnt balance want mastery haste gear ?whats the difference ?

delicate perch
#

access to gear would play an insane role in that

#

tier gloves were suddenly an increase over my crit mast m+ myth gloves after ditching crafted weapon

crisp scaffold
delicate perch
#

ya always sim anyway, tiny upgrades are still upgrades Stonks

#

A few weeks back my sims were screaming at me to get vers

sudden flame
#

hitting that mastery dr range

#

have same on feral all my gems are vers

lyric junco
#

Should I stagger my incarns more to try and ensure I have either HoC or Best-in-Slots for every incarn in M+?

I've found that after the first 2 incarns of the dungeon, which I usually do 20 seconds apart to account for the icd from trinket to weapon, my incarns are just with HoC and BiS just kinda sits unused unless I manually send it without cds.

fossil hemlock
#

Saw a log of someone sending hoc with incarn and just sort of sending BiS on CD

scenic mist
fossil hemlock
#

And if it happened to line up with a non-hoc incarn, great

lyric junco
#

Aight, so basically just send BiS as and when I can outside of the second one?

scenic mist
#

just press BIS on cd when you enter eclipse

#

unless you have no HoC and will incarn in like 10sec

Hello! I need a log guru that can help me out. As I got into pushing 19 keys I find my damage really lacking. I put my logs into wowanalyzer and they seem fine on paper but I must be doing mistakes I don't realize. Anyone can help?

empty locust
scenic mist
#

this is big mistake

#

this part

#

you wasted 2 stacks of nature's grace

#

and its biiiiiiiiiiiiiiig dam loss

#

incarn, then 2x starfire, then press WoE

empty locust
#

Oh let me try to understand it

scenic mist
#

this is also very damaging to your dps, inside incarn your only gcds should be starfire and starfall

scenic mist
empty locust
#

Dotting huh? And the first thing u mention is the reduced cast time of starfire

#

Yeeeeah I see ur point here

scenic mist
empty locust
#

Thanksssss I'll change that

#

Also the second thing is doting in incarn which I already try to minimize (unless tanks go unpredictable)

scenic mist
#

this is no good either

#

FoE needs to be pressed the gcd before incarn, not after

#

incarn is so short you really really really need to make the most of it every time

empty locust
#

Is this damage loss even when I don't have cap AP?

scenic mist
#

yeah huge

#

cause FoE doesnt do a lot of dam by itself

empty locust
#

So I always align incarn with foe, I keep incarn till foe is up

#

Wow big mistakes here

#

I wasn't doing this

scenic mist
empty locust
#

Yeah definitely

scenic mist
#

and this is nice tech too :

#

gives more FoE procs during the dung, so more astronomical impact, and more asp, so more starfall, more 6% dam

empty locust
#

Ok I will start tracking firmament too

#

And do I need to also align woe with incarn or not?

scenic mist
#

no real need to track it, just precast 2x wrath if you're out of combat when tank is pulling

empty locust
#

I'm sending woe on cd

scenic mist
empty locust
#

Ok ok

scenic mist
#

i mean, you can delay for 10sec ofc

empty locust
#

Ah ic yeah so no matter the state of firmament I just go on eclipse before I send incarn for the rotation

#

Got ya

crisp scaffold
#

Ok ,let me understand too ,whenever u start a pull u 2x wrath and then dot everything ,FoE , incarn ,starfall spam and starfire ?

scenic mist
#

do the 2x wrath only if out of combat when you start the 1st wrath cast

#

if not go straight to the dot part

crisp scaffold
#

Nice ,good to know ,never did that

empty locust
#

Same @scenic mist your help is invaluable thanks a ton! I'ma work on all those right away

scenic mist
#

main thing is having 2 NG stacks when you press incarn

#

NG stacks in M+ work like in raid, see your ST opener where you precast 2x wrath ?

crisp scaffold
#

Ofc ,in general u are out of combat while tank gets things ,only when they start casting on you I think u get in combat

empty locust
#

Yeah

scenic mist
#

you get 2 NG stacks refunded on the beggining of the encounter

#

same vibe

empty locust
#

When I use 2 NG stacks , and enter eclipse, and then press incarn , I get refunded those 2 NG stacks?

maiden pasture
#

No

scenic mist
maiden pasture
#

You get NG for eclipse ending, entering incarn while in eclipse is not an eclipse ending

scenic mist
#

out of combat, 0 NG stacks
precast 1x wrath
at the end of the cast, you enter combat, so you get 2x NG stacks
if you succesfully queue up the 2nd wrath after the 1st, like in ST opener, the 2nd wrath WILL NOT consume 1 NG stack
--> you successfully entered eclipse (thus cycling firmament) while keeping 2 NG stacks

maiden pasture
scenic mist
#

if you cant do it reliably, just focus on the 2 NG stacks rather than firmament cycling

empty locust
#

I understand yeah maybe u fk it up and then waste the incarn + NG infused starfires

#

Which I didn't get advantage of anyway 😂

maiden pasture
#

Just don't spend dreamstate stacks if you're entering eclipse immediately after it's as simple as that.

Don't bother thinking about the boundless moonlight damage as much. You're better off starting dotting tbh

#

It's also not even known / tested for if it's a dps gain

#

They don't think about it in R1 keys, you can focus on other things instead

scenic mist
scenic mist
empty locust
#

Yargi is so fking good man even mdi casters were like how this guy does 400k more DPS on st than the rest of dudus xd

scenic mist
#

but it's the end of the road, focus on NG stacks to begin with, and not wasting gcds inside incarn

maiden pasture
#

How often are you in m+ and the following is true:

You're able to cast 2x wrath before you get in combat
You don't have to move so you can plant for 2x wrath
You're at a range where pressing 2x wrath is fine because the first won't hit by the end of second cast

scenic mist
#

Queue up the 2nd wrath and it wont consume NG stacks

#

Watch NG stacks behavior

empty locust
#

@scenic mist so basically the really bad stuff was not using NG stacks before sending incarn, and doting while in incarn from what u saw?

scenic mist
#

you DONT want to use NG stacks before incarn

#

you want to use them inside

empty locust
#

Eeh yeah

scenic mist
#

the bad thing is pressing WoE before using them

empty locust
#

I mean inside my bad

#

Yes completely got that

scenic mist
#

if NG and WoE are both up, starfire will consume both

empty locust
#

I phrased it wrong 😛

#

Yeah

maiden pasture
#

When are they gonna make owlkin frenzy proc be used before woe stacks

#

That's the real question

scenic mist
empty locust
#

My canceled casts are also huge but I play like a bitch on prog keys so that will naturally lower

scenic mist
#

the less the better ofc

empty locust
#

Goats have like 4-5%

#

Such things I could compare against but the details like ones u mentioned I'd never figure out myself

lyric junco
#

Most of the time I find myself using NG charges on Wrath to get back into Lunar Eclipse. That's unavoidable right?

scenic mist
#

by precasting wrath before the end of lunar eclipse

#

but doesnt matter much

#

outside of incarn

lyric junco
#

Yeah I do that sometimes, but I never really realised how it's happening

scenic mist
#

if you start wrath cast before you have the NG stack, it wont consume it eventhough you got them before the end of the cast (cause you ended lunar eclipse during the cast)

#

this was particularly critical when NG stacks also gave dmg amp to the builder, but now it's juste haste so, meh

lyric junco
#

I was thinking it was because the wrath cast only moves you towards eclipse when it does damage

#

but your explanation makes sense

#

Is there a WA that tell me when I won't get another Starfire off in Lunar so should cast wrath instead?

scenic mist
#

yes

#

Oi pack has one, on the left

#

shows you a wrath icon when it's time to wrath

#

and this is the same thing but when in ST (KotG), telling you when to starfire instead of wrath

lyric junco
#

Amazing, thank you so much

scenic mist
lyric junco
#

I use Atrocity's whole UI atm and it feels fine, so I'll probably stick with that and just import individual auras like those 2 that I feel are helpful

#

But ty for the recommendation anyway

empty locust
#

@scenic mist by what youre saying i think ive found another mistake , some times i press incarn at 0 seconds of last eclipse , or during it. I should never do that and let it end to refresh stacks of NG ?

empty locust
#

damn nice i will from now on

#

i basically never thought so much of NG. now ima track it hell lot more

lyric junco
#

I also didn't think it was that valuable either xD Learning a lot here

scenic mist
#

faster cast = more casts = more starfire dam and more asp meaning more starfall meaning bigdam + starlord uptime + arcanes spells so cdr on FoE so more astronomical impact uptime, more dam from FoE, more asp from FoE so more starfall, etc etc

#

moonkin is really a class with a lot of propagation

empty locust
#

thank god i parsed so low that actually made me think i have rotational mistakes, people so bad at 17-18 that u parse like 70 even with all those mistakes

scenic mist
#

so he stole your thunder

#

quite litteraly

empty locust
#

yeah ik ik

#

u should see fauni 😄

#

noone else is allowed to dps

#

even pulls from his tank are curated spesifically around his cds 😄

scenic mist
#

you will have a hard time parsing when going into the key with 2 other burst aoe classes

#

cause i dont believe this ret paladin was all about ethical damage

#

as none of them are

#

lacking prio target damage also means you end every pack with 1-2 targets alive for a bit longer, so your overall also drops

#

not that it matters, but it's the metric you chose

empty locust
#

naaah he wasnt 😄

#

yeah i took consideration of all this but i try not to find excuses , when its low , its low for a reason 😄

Well u have to look it from vault for that

scenic mist
lofty depot
#

It doesn't just upgrade mythic because u have it at 8/8 hero

neon fossil
#

well yes thats also not my intention

cloud lion
#

U can put any item in top gear or u can find in string to change ilvl

neon fossil
#

I obviously want it to be max available path for it, so 8/8 Heroic.

lofty depot
#

So since u don't have a ring on mythic track, yes crafted is better

orchid ember
#

^

lofty depot
#

And if u want to upgrade the ring, do it in top gear

neon fossil
#

Is the stat gain that juicy from Circet?

orchid ember
#

Yes

#

It scales with how much mastery you have

lofty depot
#

If u have not high ilvl ring yes

little cove
neon fossil
#

I probably have to avoid crafting the belt, right? So I can just craft the ring and swap rings around when I get a myth track ring or Heroic Jastor

lofty depot
#

Sure

cloud lion

#

Do we have some sims on how worth the belt will be on Boomkin? I mean it will get buffed anyway I reckon but well

this is probably a really dumb question... forgive me i'm a resto main ... is there any good way to line up CA, trees and convoke? i obviously hit them all in the opener thats easy... i was the like 15 seconds to send 2nd CA with trees... but after that i feel like the timings are always wonky off and i do a bad job of lining them up.. is it worth min maxing those overlaps? Also is micro managing Starlord stacks worth it? Thx for the help!

leaden birch
#

hold something

#

thats it really

#

there's some rules out there like hold trees if < 20 seconds or something but I can't remember tbh

sturdy perch
#

ok so just some rules to learn.... i think i saw somethign like that on dreamgrove ill check it again

#

i figured the advice was lul get good 😛

pseudo merlin
#

Define SL stack micromanaging

#

You don't cancelaura anymore

#

But otherwise I wouldnt call building up to 3 stacks micro managing

sturdy perch
#

oh ok thats what i was asking... i haven't been but didtn know if it was better to

pseudo merlin
#

Like it's pretty important

sturdy perch
#

ya in past patches ppl used to cancel aura then dump 3

pseudo merlin
#

To like plan for it dropping off with sufficient ASP to get back up asap

#

yeah no cancelling anymore

sturdy perch
#

ah ok thx... ya it used to be like a tiny tiny increase didnt' know what the standard was atm

lucid olive
sturdy perch
#

@lucid olive oh shit didnt' think about Control... ok makes way more sense to hold

#

this is why i ask lol way less proficient at balance

lucid olive
#

In some raid fights it's worth holding the 3rd set of treants for the overlap too

#

esp if you play House of Cards

sturdy perch
#

ya i know obviously some fights you aren't patchworking

#

i'm hoping to get a sprocket mythic kill this week so i can buy my myth trinket and then get a heroic HoC for off spec

lucid olive
#

on Vexie for example you hold 2nd CA and 3rd trees for the burn phase so you have 2 sets of treants+CA and 1 Convoke

leaden birch
lucid olive
#

on Sprocket you just send natty

#

maybe hold on Sprocket if I get the color that has to take gateway on the first knockback since your CDs come up almost right as the knock happens

sturdy perch
#

i guess hodling a CA for awhile doesnt' really hurt at all since it has 2 stacks now

lucid olive
#

but if I'm the color that gets knocked instead of taking gateway I just send cooldowns while flying

sturdy perch
#

ok that makes alot of sense

#

i think i've bene ove pressing CA ... but you basically have 2 whole minutes you can hold it and not lose any potential casts

lucid olive
#

yeah

#

I like to think of the cooldowns like holding for anchor points

sturdy perch
#

also this is pretty obvious... but before your CA-convoke lineup... dumb astral power... CA then slam convoke then dump ap again

lucid olive
#

Convoke is usually the longest CD so you hold things to line up with that and follow the specific rules

#

don't dump AP before using CA generally

sturdy perch
#

any worry about overcap with convoke?

lucid olive
#

if you're gonna be overcapped by the Force of Nature AP + the CA AP from proccing 2pc then you can probably send a Starsurge

#

you dump AP before the Convoke inside CA

#

so like

sturdy perch
#

CA... dump... convoke

#

treants - CA+Surge - Surge - Surge - Convoke

ok that makes sense... little tweaks but its getting 15% dmg on the surge spam

Doesn't have it at 684

p sure when i grab a moxie jug i get over the hump

lucid olive

yeah for sure

exotic perch
#

just need to dinar it

#

the candle is cool but mug better

lucid olive
#

think i sim over 3m on 3 classes

exotic perch
#

kinda funny that feral isnt close to 3m at full bis

lucid olive
#

yeah theyre down bad

exotic perch
#

that class should be 150k above everyone ST

lucid olive
#

hope they keep feral bad until they make tigers fury be perma uptime again

exotic perch
#

i just wish the amirdrassil tier was baked into class

#

would fit with the new tigers fury well

#

that shit was great

lucid olive
#

yeah amirdrassil feral was a lot of fun

feral frenzy was 30sec cd and caused you to do 20% more dam during its duration

pseudo merlin
#

ohhhh

exotic perch
#

(2) Set Bonus: Feral Frenzy grants Smoldering Frenzy, increasing all damage you deal by 20% for 8 sec.
(4) Set Bonus: Feral Frenzy's cooldown is reduced by 15 sec. During Smoldering Frenzy, enemies burn for 10% of damage you deal as Fire over 10 sec.

loud kettle
#

was a good tier set bonus

pseudo merlin
#

yeah that's good stuff

lucid olive
#

gave you mini cooldown burst phases and aligned well with convoke

#

now spec is boring gg

exotic perch
#

ye now playing feral frenzy is so odd cause its 45s with 2min cds

#

like cmon blizz

lucid olive

Evening @lucid olive ! What was that macro you made for wrath and the cancel aura for dreamstate again

lucid olive
#
#showtooltip
/cast Wrath
/cancelaura [nocombat] dreamstate
scenic mist
lucid olive
#

yur

#

i also have /cancelaura [nocombat] Blooming Infusion in there

#

just so I can regrowth myself after a wipe to full health and not pull the boss with an instant Wrath by mistake xdd

scenic mist
lucid olive
#

yeah theres no real tech in cancelling it

scenic mist
#

there is in gally tbf
during prog i wanted the dr from regrowth on the pull, but had to manually cancelaura the damn proc to not prepull with an instant wrath

#

i might do the macro

scenic mist
#

(same question for the blooming cancelaura)

lucid olive
#

having 2nd one after doesnt matter

#

probably better to have cancelaura last

#

cause then the 1st wrath is faster

#

but you cancel it and then gain 2 stacks when the cast ends

#

also i just usually press the macro in downtime before pull

scenic mist
#

#showtooltip Wrath /cancelaura [nocombat] Blooming infusion /cast Wrath /cancelaura [nocombat] Dreamstate

#

something like this then

lucid olive
#

yeah basically

scenic mist
#

mmh, seems to not work
the blooming infusion isnt canceled and the wrath goes instant, at least on dummies

lucid olive
#

yeah i told you there's no real tech to the instant wrath

#

i just wanted a cancelaura for it so i didn't accidentally pull the boss with an instant wrath without realizing

scenic mist
#

yeah so just a standalone cancelaura macro on the side

lucid olive
#

because i spammed regrowth to heal myself up after a wipe

#

and less button = less headache

#

havent used it a whole lot this tier anyway cause i just yoink mage food now

scenic mist
lucid olive
#

nah its just same button innit

#

but it doesn't matter really there's no point discussing it

#

people will see this and get confused thinking cancelling blooming is tech

scenic mist
#

just forget everything i wrote

#

i'm dumb as a truck

#

did the macro but kept using regular wrath

#

macro actually works like a charm

lucid olive

this is not a lfg channel

Should I follow wowhead in getting 684 signet/candle over heroic HoC and mug's jug?

#

bloodmallet is saying otherwise (kinda)

jovial hare
#

Sim your own character

lucid olive
#

both wowhead bis lists and bloodmallet are resources you should not trust

lucid olive
#

you could have added "also don't see anyone using it on murlok.io" and youd have the hit the trifecta of useless resources

scenic mist
lucid olive
#

now that sounds like a terrible idea

usually heroic jug is better than myth wax

I am trying to min max stats for mythic raiding. And I don’t know how to use the sim program to help make decisions. I have a mythic chest vers/mast and I could transform it into tier crit/haste. and then craft a 681 helmet. But how do I know this is better? And do I convert all my vers gear into crit? Isn’t some vers good? I just don’t know how to make these decisions. Also my current helmet has a socket will the crafted one come with one? :: current stats unbuff= crit 8.92, haste 28.57, vers 4.23, mast 22.95 leech 1% avoidance 3.36. I am 680 ilvl

digital berry

#

Oh then I need to find new gloves

digital berry
#

but when it comes to simming, since you seem to be very very new at it, i would recommend checking out a video guide like Naguuras

it's ok to go around wearing 5 piece

pretty common

does anyone here use afenar's WA?

how can I add the BIS cd to it

does anyone have a list of what classes the BIS is best for them so i can see if im highest prio for it next

half fern

when playing BIS and house. im assuming you send house with first incarn and bis with second?

or is it other way around?

#

Hi! I am new to retail wow. the new crafting system looks very complicated I want to craft a 681 craft gear. what reagents do i use for my 681?

candid mason
#

Aside from the normal stuff, you use the two gilded crest items to boost to 681

#

The merchant is beside the crafting order person

#

Its 90 gilded per piece to max it out

fiery harness
#

what about stats prio?

#

i can add some extra reagents to it right?

digital berry
#

missives yeah

candid mason
#

Yeah you can add set stats, and embellishments

#

2 embellishments max per character

#

(1 per item)

fiery harness

what embellishments do i use? i want to play m+

@digital berry ST EZ

#

oh LMAO

digital berry
#

disgusting aug players over there i see

digital berry
#

this is not the way

#

you never CA without trees

#

you hold that ca

#

also starfire is not a spell you should cast that much of

lofty depot
#

macro nv to incarn

#

idk why were starfalling on st

#

ur likely capped asp at the sunfires

#

but u should be spamming starfralls

#

but because of u using cds opn pull u dont have trees

#

boomkins being very smart

#

lower than i figuyred

lucid olive
#

It doesn't matter if you send on pull or not

#

You're not gonna wipe to not breaking out the first set of bombshells anyway

#

And there's still people in top 50 on Stix sending on pull

#

If you decide on saving for first set of sorting and then get picked to roll a ball you just forced yourself to hold cooldowns until like 1:40, and you also won't have for one of the later sets

#

Sending on pull makes Incarn cap charges and Control starts counting again so you don't desync as bad on the later sets that are more likely to be the progress points

shrewd pivot
#

is there any trick to convoke on mugzee

#

or just pray it doesn't hit ab ot

lucid olive
#

Yes

#

Look raid guide on Dreamgrove

leaden birch
#

do logs not show when people use BIS

lucid olive
#

Stand on wall on dirt side on pull to outrange the bots during Convoke

#

Hold 3rd set of trees and then send CDs the second Convoke is up before the new bots spawn

real fjord
#

if you had a brand new boomie and wanted to spend your first 3 chips, what would you buy

lucid olive

leaden birch
#

I was curious what dwilkz was doing on his mug kill

lucid olive
#

He was vibing

#

You should do the same

#

Just use BiS whenever it's not on cooldown and you're using treants

#

Can hold trees for up to 15s to line up since control of the dream and stuff

leaden birch
#

so start on the dirt side

#

for convoke

are these important? can i just choose a random one?

So huh, how does hoc / best-in-slots work together?

#

Bind hoc and best-in-slots with incarn, hoc first?

lofty depot

if u were to bind one to ca, it would be hoc

#

u hoc first

does anyone else play on ping for m+ on ping with spellque window 400 its rlly hard to not waste a ng stack on pulls

digital berry
lofty depot
#
  1. the 1 stack ur likely losings isnt that big
  2. u can mess with the spellqueu if u want
digital berry
#

Of course it’s not good but playing on high ping has its limitations

little cove
#

should i just not bother at all if i cant get it consistant

lofty depot
#

sure

little cove
#

would it still be a gain overall in a key with the ng stack lost or would it be better not wasting the 1 stack

lofty depot
#

idk ur asking a very unique question to something that is already a low % gain

#

none of which is the reason u wont time a key

little cove
#

yes but ill take any % i can if we do know the answer if nto all good

#

alright think i got it i swapped how the macro is on dreamgrove to cancel dreamstate first, changed my rapid trigger on wooting and messed with spellq

#

i thin kthe first is what helped most

i love that all these fotm boomkins who still fumble their eclipses try to optimize dreamstate precasting stuff

This for m+ btw

u dont need to cast two wraths to enter lunar if you are pressing incarn anyways

other than that sounds fine

keep playing, watch some other boomkins play

log your dungeons, post a log here and we can look

#

you know the dreamgrove compendium guide ye?

#

'pre cast two wrath’s to enter estate > FoE > Incarn > spam starfalls'

--> also think of "spam starfalls" more as "use starfall to not overcap astral power, and to keep starlord up, mainly spam starfire"

How whould you guys have played this? I dont have HoC or mugjug, and my tier is hero track. I currently have hero HoC in my vault and myth track shoulders. With dinars catchup i can buy a new item this reset.
Should i try my luck in the raid before i make my pick, or should i take HoC and buy Mugjug? 😅

we would have to add couple more splits for that to be viable i think

If i am in this situation on AOE:

  • FOE needs ~3 sec to be ready
  • My previous eclipse has ended
  • Its a good time to send incarn
  • Nothing needs doting - theres no reason to use dots outside of just as a filler spell
    What do i do for those 3 sec ? use starfire although it will consume one Natures Grace ? Use dots to just wait out the FOE ? Whats the better choice here ? Cuz usually i wanna keep 2xNG for the incarn so im confused what to spend on those gcds

Kezan is good if your team is amazing and you can support it

Guess I can't say since I'm not running 21s but I would think top has enough downtime to make it bad

grave charm

i'd think so too

tight osprey

Then again sometimes you give stuff a try to see if you can make it work idk

i guess in a way with Best in slots and card is like having two on use trinkets and that could be clunky , unless you send double incarn

no

you macro it into incarn

well ya but i mean you use Best in slots outside of incarn

do you

I don't because it won't drop

pallid bay

idk your average m+ pusher group probably suck in all regards to the highest key doers

so an on-use has more value

round field

because of more downtime, not keeping the group in combat for kezan, random deaths, pulls that dont live that long and so on

You don't need to do m0, any mythic dungeon (m0 or m+) will give you a keystone

yea but im not sure if i can find a m+ group

Should definitely be more +2s than m0s

whats usually the ilvl for m2

620 enough?

no idea if there's any +2 and what their standards are but 620 is more than enough

is there any addon to show group ilvl?

I’ve a ring versa mastery with avoidance on my vault mythic track. On st it’s a 0,2% gain, but I ll change with crafted ring haste mastery. Is it worth trade 3,8k haste for avoidance and more mastery? Idk how much can impact on m+ scenario.

fossil hemlock
# fiery harness 620 enough?

It sounds like you could get some significant upgrades from just doing things like delves and world content, but yeah 620 is more than enough for +2s

thanks

but i just dont undderstand why
