can some1 update me on how boomy is looking for the tier in terms of raid dps. In terms of just getting a raid spot for buff doesnt matter but more in terms of numbers. Is the spec far behind, middle, ahead in terms of ST/cleave/AOE?

delicate perch
#

yep I can, shit

lofty depot

#

With the patch coming out next week you have to look at the bright side. You just cleared up 2 to potentially 3 days a week to do whatever you want for the next couple months!

lofty depot

if were 10% behind the middle, we will get buffed

#

just like last tier

past knot
#

we might get another buff

#

on ST dont know if it still good or meh

lofty depot
#

well ur talking about m+

past knot
#

yeah i know, i mean in raid, we usually not the best spec

#

if you have decent damage, solarbeam going to carry us to keys

lofty depot

Solar Beam is so overrated

AOE silence on a 45sec/1min CD...

sheezz, not feeling weak my friend

lofty depot

roar such good utl

so true

wild dune
#

beam without chain sigil is meh

got em all AOE stops

and coordinating that in pugs is awful.

yeah dog 2 gcds to press beam

I'd rather eat glass

still better that getting casted on the face and killing the key

by the time you press vortex and typhoon the cast got off

#

sorry pal, not trying to fight ❤️

#

just love balance

#

i see it strong for those reasons.

#

damage is not i see off right now, maybe more could be more fun, but going to play it anyways

exotic perch
#

wdym damage is not off

#

at the moment is certainly is way way lower

lucid olive
#

Every season it's the same just different spec

#

"oh shadow priest utility is so fucking good you NEED IT FOR EVERY KEY", next season psychic link nerfed 5% "oh shadow is so garbage it just has nothing in a key"

#

Every fucking time man..

exotic perch
#

turns out utility doesnt matter when one spec just does 20% more damage

lucid olive
#

Now it's Solar Beam and Vortex, in Midnight it's probably supernova and mass poly

exotic perch
#

death is best cc

lucid olive
#

Yee you bring whoever does the most damage and then you find a way to best utilize whatever CC they have

past knot
#

i find CC more important in high keys depending on which could be side turner

#

dispel been something that made priest OP in past seasons.

wild dune
lofty depot
#

god i hate them

past knot
#

LMAO

wild dune
#

Those are some numbies

lofty depot
#

did they lower the cap

wild dune
#

Other specs got set changes too I assume?

normal pilot
#

no idea you'll have to test cap in game

lofty depot
#

ok ❤️

#

thanks for ur hard work

normal pilot
#

if they didn't touch the cap i guess it's not horrible

#

if they did then it'd be awful depending

lofty depot
#

1% of my damage x 11

#

massive surely

normal pilot
#

~1.2% nerf if they didn't touch the cap

lofty depot
#

so then im getting aura buffed surely

#

another 8% send it

misty glade
normal pilot
#

hm taza trinket buffs too

lucid olive
#

That's why the cap is so low

normal pilot
#

well cap needs to be confirmed in game

misty glade
#

Oh. My brain is smooth. How is it a nerf then

dense steeple
normal pilot
#

just how awful they made it who knows

#

huh they buffed sacbrood by 20% wasn't that a good trinket

wild dune
#

It was

normal pilot
#

house of cards nerf 10%

#

looks like a bunch of undermine trinkets got nerfed

lucid olive
#

This PTR it's been subpar

normal pilot
#

ritual forge nerfed 10%

lucid olive
#

Makes sense

normal pilot
#

altho i guess that's more a melee one?

lucid olive
#

Nah that trinket is busted for us

#

Intellect on use

#

Intellect increases the cap

craggy sonnet
#

do we reach current cap easily?

lofty depot
#

easily, no

normal pilot
#

if they chagned cap then it won't be a prolem now

#

but if they lowered it then maybe

#

you hit cap currently

#

or well pre-change

craggy sonnet
#

so this is just straight up a nerf to the set

#

4p*

normal pilot
#

depends on the cap

craggy sonnet
#

that is

#

why does it depend on the cap?

normal pilot
#

oh it's a nerf to 4pc ya

#

buff to 2pc

craggy sonnet
#

unless you are saying that with lower contribution we could still reach a higher cap

lofty depot
#

currently its 25x... if thye lower it to 10x its less damage stores

#

25x = 3.2m
10x = 1.28m

normal pilot
#

also every time you hit the cap it's bad since you lose haste scaling

craggy sonnet
#

oh no. guess the convo was a bit misleading .. i was only talking about the 4p

#

that is likely a straight nerf even if they were to increase the cap

lucid olive
#

It's a straight nerf

#

It's a gigantic nerf in fact

#

I thought they would send the other shit and not also reduce the pool from 3% to 2%

craggy sonnet
#

surely they would only do this and compensate for baseline surge dmg or something?

lucid olive
#

Irrelevant

#

You'd just play EC

wild dune
craggy sonnet
#

oh

#

well, thats unfortunate

wild dune
#

ec in raid, lock the fuck in

meager storm
#

well

#

it was a pleasure im going MM

lofty depot
#

yea if they dont buff keeper u just dont paly it

meager storm
#

see u on farm

lofty depot
#

shrimple

normal pilot
#

13% nerf

#

it's dead

#

time to move on

wild dune
#

wonder if it was intentional or they just fucked up

lucid olive
#

Blizzard just pushed hotfixes on PTR with changes to the Keeper of the Grove tier set, effectively killing it in all content

2pc
Dryad Starsurge damage buffed by 1100%
Dryad Starfall damage buffed by 700%

4pc
Dryads Favor cap is reduced from 25x spell power (intellect) to 6x spell power (intellect)
The damage attributed to the cap is now 2% reduced from 3%

This is about a 14% nerf Keeper of the Grove.

This is an immense nerf and has effectively killed the hero talent in all content for the coming season unless it gets reverted. An incoming aura buff to the spec will just result in you playing EC for all content in the upcoming raid.

you know it's bad when dakd joins in the dooming

they're afraid of boomkin not being bottom 2-3 specs in the game

there is no dooming

im locked in mm hunter

didn't mm get slapped

meager storm

on raid not really

so like, we were underperforming, and they nerfed us further?

that's fun

lofty depot
lofty depot

i was not rerolling if these changes didnt happen

delicate perch
thorn nebula
#

we were very middle of the pack

meager storm
#

but i refuse to play the unfun hero talent and also do tank talent

#

kotg had such a good set

dusty bluff
#

oh, all the logs I saw showed us pretty low before this

thorn nebula
#

but tbh some other specs were sandbagging sims

#

arcane sims were not fully optimized gear

wild dune
#

seems like an intentional change to lower the burst of the tier set and they just forgot to also buff the spec to compensate.

thorn nebula
#

shit like that makes the overall results kinda meaningless

wild dune
#

shrug

meager storm
#

if they aura buff we still play ec

#

i dont think u get it

wild dune
#

they buff wrath ez

thorn nebula
#

let's not go back to where builders were doing more damage than spenders

lofty depot
thorn nebula
#

fuckin stupid design

delicate perch

buff wrath then we take other talent so we can wrath in EC

no dedicated person to help oversee our class so they made an AI bot and gave it a prompt:

class tuning clearly a problem and challenge for blizzard and then they decide to add hero talents and 2 tier sets per class

We're unwinding a lot this patch - tuning coherency, class design, ethereals, sanity, general development best practices. Really the whole gamut if things that can be unwound will be unwound.

About 14% worse

true viper

incoming 15% aura buff

drifting nova

with my 1 functional eye is it a "let's force minigamers into raid" angle

ionic oak
#

Yeah. If any other raider is below you (the boomkin) they suck ass

#

Gkick them

lucid olive
ionic oak
#

Lol

lucid olive
#

Like every possible compensation buff they can think of doesn't matter

#

Cause you just play EC

Oh man this isnt real

Unless they buff like

"force of nature treants now melee for 10m per tree"

drifting nova

is this it, every patch having a mandatory given item now

Yeah but youd just play force of nature in EC

drifting nova

top 3.... longest now

not counting pyroblast if fire even has that still

#

dont hardcast it

lucid olive
#

It's not just casting Starfire

#

It's that you can't have any downtime between casting Starfire

#

You have to manually apply dots

drifting nova
#

..what if we moved while casting

lucid olive
#

Starfall does 0 dmg so you have no actual cleave in raid

#

Cause everything dies to melee meat grinder

iron chasm
lucid olive
#

You have no real cooldowns with damage spikes, it's just flat dmg profile with FoE being an activator for your 4pc and Atmos Exposure

#

If there are any adds that spawn they get put on boss and melee kills them before you can finish Moonfiring them and casting Starfire

So how bout that runescape

lucid olive
#

FoE does no damage cause it gets turned low since it's a damage activator

iron chasm
lofty depot
lucid olive
#

Also Starfire is a long enough cast for it to matter in raid

iron chasm
lucid olive
#

Cause Blizzard has admitted that Weakauras existing means they have to fill every mechanic with swirlies and snappy movement to make challenging bosses

#

And EC's worst enemy is movement

tranquil plank
lucid olive
#

Yeah it'll be all "go here, soak this, dispell that guy, kill the add, kill the boss"

tranquil plank
#

Forgot drop this at marker :)

merry ibex
#

What % nerf to the ST do you think these KoTG changes are?

tranquil plank
#

-99%

true viper
#

-14% to what was before the hotfix

edgy coral
#

dropping the largest moons ST EC build, kotg was wack anyway, cut the fuckin forest down

lucid olive
#

I tried to see what was the most dmg I could make a Full Moon do

#

It's still less than a Starsurge from nerfed Keeper set

#

But a long cast time

merry ibex
#

I'm sorry are we sure this is real? We took a massive ST nerf? I thought we were already simming like at the bottom for ST

#

Even for blizzard that doesnt make much sense

lucid olive
#

It is real unfortunately

#

We likely are going to get an aura buff sometime

dense steeple
lucid olive
#

But the aura buff will just solidify EC as better

solemn idol
#

Nerf the wrong things, buff the wrong things, panic aura buff...rinse repeat

#

circle of life

dense steeple
merry ibex
#

I mean EC in raid seems really bad because you dont have the freedom of wrath spam

edgy coral
#

play havoc, zero patch notes gg ez

merry ibex
#

you get mega punished with movement fights

#

but maybe Im wrong?

normal pilot
#

not wrong in that. only place you're wrong is expecting any diff from the game

#

but maybe you haven't been playing long, in which case now you know better

dense steeple
#

gas please bully the balance dev

maiden garden
#

when i read 1200% buff thought it was an april fools pin

lucid olive
#

ionic oak
#

does this mean we can do the 1 button rotation then. in EC raid

#

lol

#

bright side?

lucid olive
#

2pc is dogshit too

ionic oak

lucid olive
#

1200% buff sounds like a lot until you realize it was doing 100k per Starsurge before and it casts 5 of them

stone ledge
#

can someone send me some ptr talent builds to test

dense steeple
#

honestly thats the most infuriating part

#

people are going to see the 1200%

#

and think its a buff

#

and that we're just crying

lofty depot
#

if it seems like its small, it is

maiden garden
#

but isnt it weird that you pushed something that needed a 1200% buff which is still dogwater

merry ibex

So is boomie gonna be decent next patch or nah. I mainly do m+ probably gonna go helaing for raid since boomie doesn't feel good in raid imo

#

Does the first part of the EC 4 set just have zero value on ST?

#

It just says it launches them at nearby targets

lucid olive
#

It launches it at your target and then splits to nearby targets

normal pilot
#

the 4pc gives you a buff

#

so it's not useless in st

stone ledge
#

didnt even realize kotg was nerfed even more before i sent that btw wtb raid ec talents now

delicate perch
#

Wish they pinned info here

merry ibex
#

I get the parts that give some value but I was just wondering if the part that launches additional SSs that hit other targets

#

does anything in ST

delicate perch
lucid olive
#

Wowhead hasn't posted datamine so nobody will know the set is nerfed

#

Blizzard don't write development notes for moonkin

delicate perch
#

Waste of time really

#

Who’s going to read them? @iron chasm is the only balance Druid player left

stone ledge
#

i waas actually checking pins hoping for something good then i remembered what spec i play

delicate perch
#

That’ll teach ya

normal pilot
#

if you can't get 4pc but only 2pc, then you got a buff

stone ledge
#

idk if it is a buff over old 4pc

#

doubt it tbh

normal pilot
#

it wil lbe they'll nerf old 4pc so it is

stone ledge
#

thats like 3 weeks into the season thing

ionic oak
#

liquid and echo gonna roll in with 3 boomkins. we gonna be fine

stone ledge
#

like they nerfed augs nerubar palace 2 piece what 3 months into the season?

lucid olive
#

Changing the cap to 6x spell power means the 4pc adds about a Starsurge worth of damage at the end of your ramp

thorn nebula
#

hmm anyone else getting this notification while trying to log onto their druids?

ionic oak
#

how much we thinking damage is for keeper and elune right now with the changes? napkin math?

lucid olive
#

Keeper sims like 4.6m ish

#

EC is like 5.2m

#

Feral is 5.7m which is what you should be playing anyway

ionic oak
#
