Fish fingers like Doctor Who?
I heard Kanye loves fish sticks
Are you calling Kanye a gay fish
Nah I'm just saying he loves putting fish sticks in his mouth
making the ...fish? gay
what do you reckon is the easiest key this season? Gambit is probably my pick if i were to choose one
dome
ohh also true
u get a myth item
more not reading
Wasn’t that for deathless ?
I didn’t have time to prep on ptr or have 4 other friends that I’m even 10% confident won’t die instantly
So why even bother
Is it very different from the first time we had TV HM?
First time around our friend group cleared it with like 60 deaths 
Not everyone is an S tier gamer okay 😖
No
Only mage anyone plays among us is me on fire and that seems to not be doing so hot currently 😐
Also a thing I noticed is balance seems to be one of the best specs to play with high ping
Everything else I tried felt off but balance is whatever. Probably can throw in like 100 more ping , the only thing feeling off will be form switching
how high are you at
Like 190-ish
Have to use a meme “gaming traffic router” though so not sure if that ping is accurate
Without one it routs via US and its 380
ouch
Yeah but fire mage procs appear way too late
Or like rogue combo points are noticeably laggy so you end up pressing a builder on full cp
I played a lot of fire in keys on last beta, wasn't too bad imo
With balance you can play with your eyes closed There’s nothing to react to really
My eyes-to-brain and brain-to-hands ping is like 500 though so every little bit helps
how big is the difference between ec and kotg in m+?
depends on the key
kotg does piss outside of cds
ah dang
also super simple
Anyone else feel like KOTG is clunky on dimensius? treants in p2 seem to go wild
what part of treants in p2 is clunky
they seem to not focus the specific "mob-in-the-wall", convoke just doesn't focus attacks properly
in that situation u dont care what ur trees are doing
ur using them for the buff
convoke sends wraths randomly, but surges get sent at target
and ur cds should be up when u land on platform
so send them faster idk
i guess my main problem is that for the last 15 years i've played boomkin, it's played more like elune than KOTG, and i just need to convince myself i like that playstyle better and it's ok to do less dps
i think u think trees are supposed to do soemthing more than what we use them for
KOTG doesn't turn boomie into a pet spec
ok, then my next problem is i hate the circle, so i gotta figure out a macro to just place the treants by hitting "G" and not need to click on the ground
Macro [@cursor] into every skill with a targetting reticle
#showtooltip
/cast [known:205636,@cursor] Force of Nature;
/cast [known:202425] Warrior of Elune;
very shrimple
all u had to do was ask
playing with reticles is trolling unless you need to be hyper precise or are still learning
is it like bad to spend runed crests this week?
unless you get some insane HC item I probably wouldnt
i got heroic araz
id spend on that
tempted to just 6/6 it
send all the 701 pieces u get to 704
really hope your guild isnt going to also give you the mythic araz
so you probably have a good while before you get that
i guess no need to spend now anyway
no more prog / raids this week
just a bunch of keys
but like assuming you farmed max hc ilv from m+ we are done with runed crests next reset right
did something change from last season
just gotta use em wisely like
said
kotg 4 set is not the most easy thing to play...
i think a lotta raid moonkins are gonna like
not play moonkin this season
tough initial bump with the set bonus + not good
the difficulty of the tier set is definitely why
after a few hundred reps of the dryad kotg opener it'll be kinda simple but until then...
if ur not splitting and got hero araz the last thing ur liekly getting is mythic araz first lol
yee
kinda weird to dinar a #4 boss
but idk what other items we dinar
kris is the only late item
ig saladbar neck / waist
but likeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
^
o
only the "rare items" or whatever
but since there are none
so yea its just kris, antenna, araz
Idk man o have received a total of 0 tier pieces from raid this week
I had champ track chest in vault and I Cata’d hero track pants
So like i am still wearing a ton of low ilvl shit
Just gonna grind some droptimizer dungeons for the rest of the week
Im done with my 10s so 8s it is
Dick and tired of waiting 15 minutes to get into a 10
Idk if anyone can explain. Was checking top logs for certain fights. Saw some druid NOT use trees with convoke - any reason they might do that. This was like a 99 parse player for that fight.
2p2p slams in keys
show log
(generally tahts dumb)
yeah sometimes people do dumb shit, and when you're playing in week 1 logs are like 99.99% gear based
good rng is good rng
Buh I have to re-find it
The only reason you’d ever convoke without trees is if trees are not up, convoke is, and fight will not last until trees are up
Hey guys, how are you doing?
How are you managing to generate enough Astral Power to cast two Starsurges before summoning the trees?
just spamming wrath?
I think judging by the time this was their 2nd convoke in the fight was over soon anyways.
So yea that makes sense
The second convoke, if you fit third trees before it, will have you wait like 10 seconds for trees so they greeded probably
Natures balance
Now did the fight end within 10 seconds of them convoking? Doubt it tbh
oh my bad i've copied an wrong build for st tho
Im not good enough to know to be greedy yet.
The fight had at least 20-25s left after their 2nd convoke.
It was most likely just a mistake and they were uber geared so they still 99d
Well in this case the greed was a mistake
Heroic btw if that changes anything but felt worth mentioning. It was a pure st no cleave fight. Maybe fractillus or mothman.
Neither of those fights are 2 minutes fight tho
2nd convoke would mean at least a 4min fight minimum or nah?
Am dumb or convoke not 2nin?
Again, convoke should always be paired with ca and trees, unless either of those isn’t gonna come off cd before fight ends and convoke is up
Which only ever really happens with trees
Wish trees would cast themselves
Stopped with H fractillus prog 2nd raid night so just browsing logs to understand things.
More H frac tomorrow
What log were you looking at?
Oh one more: is the opener the same for Keeper in raid aoe as it is for Keeper raid st?
Anyone in the top 20 on any boss.
There’s some add fights but they are intermittent spawns
Im pretty sure most people play ec on soul hunters
Wanna post this because it's my first 100 parse, heroic soulbinder
Now ignore me and continue your good talks
Also, if you have some logs you’d like to share and have people look at, feel free to send them. Tho I’m not sure if there’s many people on who do log reviews at this moment
Why would we play Kotg on soulbinder H vs EC?
I played EC
EC performed really well since it's heroic and add canisters were not going to be broken perfectly
farmed a shit ton of damage from all the adds coming in anmass
I'd assume KoTG is for coordinated groups of perfect breaking
Soulbinder adds evaporate
They doooooo
cant even pad there 🙁
Much annoy
Yea so you cant really play ec in those conditions ya?
Cant or shouldnt?
that boss will prob get deleted at some point from all stars
Semantics
No I was joking but hard to tell
Well nothing is literally stopping you from speccing into EC
Every spec has a degen way and an ethical way
Ec in soulbinder is just shameless padding
Gotta warcrime
And you’re shooting urself in the foot most likely if your team is even remotely competent
Watching my team sandbag their wowaudits
its more about the group being bad and missing canisters than the spec itself
So yea warcrimes it is
mhm, EC is only really for pugs that are gonna fail
I will shamelessly admit I FULL degened for that shit lol
Saving cd's specifically for it
is the shutting down the compendium real?
No
no
I dont think degens get shamed here?
Ehh
whew
./s means sarcasm
There’s levels to the Degen
Degens get shamed if they are proud of it
Whats good levels vs bad levels?
like genuinely proud of it
Throwing convoke onto the dmg amped add on mugzee was not very shamed
Hence why it was removed from logs
Speccing ec to do negative boss dmg and holding cds for parses ? Cringe
Or like what the Chinese guilds did on one armed
Taking turns padding on adds
Im probably not allowed to post my emoji
Bc I see parse sluts and I want some parses too
(TBF to my parse, I'm also rank 17 for boss damage so I wasn't full war crime add pad)
But my parse is 100% war crime add pad
Thats how you cover it up so no one looks at your breakdown.
lol

You can parse 99 by just simply playing the character properly with good gear
True
You can parse 99 by fucking UP still
Did it on loomithar, fucked my trees/dryad/convoke window twice and still hit 99
Is there an updated dryad weak aura for the stored damage, I need some dopamine
If you want dopamine I’d recommend rerolling
True
try gambling
Play mage, mage always has dopamine
its week 1 most people are doing raids before sending 4 set
Can we just steal some of it?
As boomkin, nah
You will have your dryad and you will like it
And by some I mean all
Whats 4 set life like?
I still don’t have 4p so I’m convinced when I get it it’ll be real bad to get used to new opener and timing windows for double cas
Wish 4 set meant 4x as much dmg
opener is pretty easy
Yeah
It took me like 3? attempts on dummy to unlearn the old memory
Kinda just send two surges after CA then pop trees
same rotation as before besides saving 2 surges for after dryad is gone
2 years from now everyone is going to be like "remember dryad? That shit was so fun, bring back dryad"
just like RF
How many gcds do you get after convoke in opener before dryad expires
I want dryad+pulsar+rf
Wtf do you do just wrath?
I'm still learning so I hold my sends a bit
Surge wrath wrath?
That's probably not the efficient way to do it
but I am
I'm just playing it safe till I can do it in my sleep
Like I fucked my window HARD
missed a CA'ed surge
due to not having enough astral
Missed a dryad surge entirely
so yeah probably, Convoke -> Surge, Wrath till you send the 2 surges after dryad
Like 50% of our dmg season 3
Still a 99 lol
4 piece broken for parsing when 79% of people don't have it
Surge, Wrath x2, Surge x2. Cry until your next Dryad window
¯_(ツ)_/¯
And out of the 21% that do probably 80% don’t know how to use it

I don't like it tbh
What in tarnation
I'd take a gamble of hitting that crit and having CA up for my second dryad window
I'm not good at this game lol.
I just kinda did what felt right
You mean trees

24% extra damage on the second dryad
99 parser btw
Must have crit every dryad window by sheer luck
Double ca is what the tc believe to be the correct play afaik
Yeah, tbh they are probably correct
But until I see mythic parses and read through logs I'm just doing what feels right
I think last i asked it was a 100k dps diff
oof
yeah, if it's correct I'll do it
when it matters, but for week 1 I'm doing what's easily repeatable without like thinking for myself
Im just gonna pull timings from lorrgs and do the pew pew ing without doing the thinking
Since with double ca you have to hold and delay and shit based off of fight length and amp phases
mhm
Can’t wait to do 2/1/2/1/2 on dimensius
I'm gonna miss my 1 and a half on use
2 minute on use hurts my brain with Control of the Dream
why is my cloak 707 on an alt
cuz 707 is LOL upside downand backwards
it's blizzard making fun of you for playing moonkin
kotg 4 set feels like subtlety rogue man
quintupled down on the bursty nature of kotg
go upgrade it
mess it up or get a bad mechanic or don't crit starsurge and you get owned
do it properly and you get to be mid-low dps
anyone has some good plater profile?
was wondering if anyone can help me out. I tried to use the dreamgrove mdt sim link to try and get the weakaura to sim my self in m+ but that link no longer works, was wondering if people are still using weakaura for this, or if there is a new method i am just not aware of. like perhaps its part of raidbots or mdt and i dont need the weak aura anymore.
the weakaura hasnt been updated
how many starsurge procs do you usually get between elunes furys when using 4set?
are they're any dryad wa's?
Hello ! I got a question
4p EC can infinite stack ?
I’ve updated my set today with the sets
can copy from there
can just grab the dryad tracker?
yes
im using krona's
but that ones doesn't have a dryad tracker
ik
it was what i used before this season
TY
pin that wa?
no
can be added to compendium if @lucid olive is feeling it
can someone share a good plater profile?
Jundies good
thanks. will look it up
I do not understand my droptimizer here. can somebody explain to me why the DB ring sims higher than the HOA ring??? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/n1JAzjdHMvBQLUn92eUzMr
They're different stats
cause your character currently likes crit more than matery
Its only odd if youre stuck in 2010 and care about stat weights
wdym
what do you need clarified
just because mastery is our best stats
doesnt mean you just auto equip something because it has mastery on it
welcome to 11.2 boomkin
what do you find odd
What pieces do we pick between when crafting?
depends if I get mythic mace from first boss
the one that sims the highest
or hero kris
but whos giving that to boomkin kek
my guild
hopefully the vault xD
we split mythic first 2 bosses
Got the mace from 1st mythic and crafted OH. Funny ~400k sim dps jump from best in slots
is mace BiS from 1st myth?
not bis but good
if i got hero kris, what to craft
oh
off hand you GOOSE

the desperate renewal 😁
when do we stop using
no longer have premium raidbots
sims dead to me
had to do all dungeons individually... almost cried
just look up the name of some rings you think work well and add them to top-gear
Probably only have enough interations to do one ring + gems though on the free sim
Haha
It Sims worse than most hero rings for me
Is droptimiser a premium only thing???
the all dungeon selection is i believe
Anyone have a link to the wowhead bis list sim?
no, cause we don't really support bis lists
and it matters more what drops for your character
there's only a few things that can be considerd 'bis' like your weapon or trinkets
more so just curious what absolute bis #'s sim around
ty
10 mins of trying to add https://www.wowhead.com/item=178824/signet-of-the-false-accuser?bonus=3248 to my raidbots sim
This blue ring of item level 158 goes in the "Finger" slot. It is looted from Lord Chamberlain. In the Rings category. Added in World of Warcraft: Shadowlands.
help.
where in raid bots was that?
topgear
How do we sim for gems? Any special settings to account for blasphemite bonus, or dont bother and go for same color gems as indicated by standard sim? I've not found the answer in the compendium.
check all the boxes
always use, only max colors
thank you 🙏
if every ones sims pointing them to more of a mastery/haste/vers type split? lots of mastery/vers & haste/vers items being simmed as highest options right now
what about it?
already have 7k vers, just seems odd that is the type of item being focused.
why?
Balance druid typically cares most for Intellect and Mastery
the other secondaries are very situational
also depends on hero talent/talents in general
that's why you don't stack stats
If you have new 4p and you're simming kotg on ST your sim will want a lot more crit/vers and a lot less haste
this is what im simming
yeah it will want more crit/vers for your Cd window
cause convoke is not hasted
you want to slap phat starsurges
And when you drop Moxie jug you'll also want a lot more crit since it gives like 15k+ when it's up
thanks, this is helpful to know
on my EC loadout it equips lily (mastery) and on KOTG loadout it adds a second crit trinket
yes
That also gives a bunch of crit from the orbs
wowhead is just misleading a bit then. confused as to why the sudden change in secondaries but pointing me in the direction of 4s cleared it up.
It's not really misleading, as it's prefaced with "always sim" and/or disclaimers telling you to check
but people still have the "what is stat priority?" question loaded into their brain, from 10 years ago
wowhead caters to that
have you looked at it?
ye
So either y'all are wrong, or this is misleading.
yup, and both mastery/haste are good for balance in general
it really depends on what you think virtually the same means
you can also just equip a ring with completely different stats and sim the difference, to see how much it affects your guy
anyone here tried hardmode? can we shapeshift the mailboss?
I think i saw someone say we could yesterday
i mean we can without the root aswell
Does anyone have a weak aura for the free proc from wrath during eclipse
flight form not work on Dimensius?
How balance looking in m+ now?
no
while we run 2+2p the KOTG ST opener is really the same as last tier right? the CA->x2 surge->GGs etc come in play only with 4p?
too bad I'm doing it without
jks I have 4pc 
only 3.8
haste filled gear been afk all weekend
hbu
I lied 3.9
kinda insane

someone has to press mark
lucky
jks we have 2 druids 
Hi guys is m+ deserter still in the game ?
I’m also like 40% haste, wild. But haven’t done much yet, ilvl 686 only
Rotation question (because my normal parses are grey and green) - do you hit CA as soon as it’s available or wait until your current eclipse ends?
y
Hi guys its normal that with new 4 set all sims remove all haste from gear? I have now like 8k only and i feel like so slow now
thanks
haste stinky
(I still cant do a shitbreaker key without SOME bug)
"omg guys Im not even getting invited to m0"
- Kekkers 569 ilvl
not like it'l change anything, look at league for example
blizzard cant even learn from other games
how can I see the tier set pooling numbers when on the training dummy?
You can't
But some quick math you can figure it out
You can not pool for more than 10x your intellect
So if you have 100k intellect that's 1 million, 1 million is 3% of 33.3 million, meaning that any damage you do over that number in CDs does not count towards the pool
do we even pool EC 4pc or do we just send Fury on CD?
On cd
so its kinda irrelevant to track it in a m+ or raid scenario, right? cause... why do i care?
truely a masterpiece of a tierset
does it refresh? i just got 2pc lol
tyvm
this is what I saw on tettles vod that made me think of the question, maybe I'm just incorrect of what I thought those numbers represent
Yeah that's a Weakaura we used on PTR to test the cap
Idk if it's updated for the 10x cap
ooh ok, so I guess the blizz API for that isn't doable in live?
Nah you can probably do it with a Weakaura
Just nobody has bothered doing it cause there's no point
that's fair haha, I think I'm looking for like a visual thing I can see for myself
does the WA still exist somewhere?
Maybe on Dsune's wago somewhere
You could also just make a simple Weakaura that shows the value in the dryads favor tooltip
But it's useless information and visual clutter
not like I'd use this for content
yeah
so the tooltip contains that info? of course it does, I was thinking of the buff/debuff tooltips
(in terms of dynamic numbers)
totally rubber ducking here
I guess I'd have to wait till tuesday for 4pc and see the buff for myself
@pallid bay can you paste the PTR WA for ya boi, I'm curious for myself
Could we blackmail some popular streamer into making a tier list where boomkin is S+ tier so we get invited in groups again?
thanks homie
When is it good to drop 4set? on 4 set from the new?
I've just been simming differences
With the kriss dagger on hero track, do i still opt for crafting a 2h next week?
also same thing, sim it for the content you're doing
holding out for the set bonus would be good with the kriss, and just take the offhand craft
I think the idea behind getting the kriss is that you have 2 slots for crafted gear that aren't boots, belt, or cloak
Is it even worth it playing the set bonus with kriss, u need to play with the trinket right?
yeah I actually walked it back a bit there on the set bonus
I think there's other trinkets that are better than having the set bonus
but also you can sim the scenarios
so wait a weak and craft 2h unless i can get kriss on myth track
is what makes the most sense i think
the trinket kinda stinks compared to other options
cool cool
so yeah, the main idea is to make sure that your crafted slots don't fuck with the rest of the non optional gear pieces (at least for right now)
cause if you craft a 2H, where is your other nerubian embellishment going?
I dont think anyone answered, but you can break old 4 set as soon as you can get new 2pc and go 2p/2p
Thanks was just simming it 😛
np, that question is asked a lot in here.
this is not boomkin related as such
BUT why do i only have 2 fractured (1 whole) spark and people are out here crafting this week?
I gave a paladin discord answer
massive.
maybe they're crafting bracers or off hand with a m+ dagger
you should only have 1 spark and 1/2 fractured sparks this week
AHHhh im a fool! thought people out here crafting weapons haha welp
i am still missing the half which is weird
oh I mean like, you have 1 fractured spark this week
the other half to make a full spark
thank you ❤️
yeah so I belive on tuesday you'll get the other fractured spark to make another full spark
then you can craft 2 things ( bracers and off hand ) or a single 2H
Does anyone have a list of the optimal talent builds for each boss? I raid tonight and I was just wondering, if not not I guess I'll go rip it off warcraftlogs.
honestly if you're down bad check archon.gg
made by the same people as warcraftlogs, you can check what people are using per boss/difficulty
from a quick glance, it's like the same as last season, except some people seem to have fun with the other hero talent on some bosses (which is honestly cool to me)
if you're just rawdogging it, just be in the mindset that you're the same as last season with a 16% aura buff
Thank you
possibly look at lycera's blessing in the druid talent tree and see if that applies to how your group/content is.
I will say that Soulbinder, Forgeweaver, and the Soul Hunters are cleave fights (in my experience) so play those fights as you did last season
it just uses data from warcraftlogs, so it's not really curated by anyone but a computer
I see. Where should I start looking then?
well it's not a bad place to look
it's like getting a vibe from what people are doing on bosses in their specs
I think a combo of archon and lorrgs.io could be a introspective
Yeah, I figured it would be somewhat legit. But honestly im not so good with all the talents and numbers, and just want to enjoy the game, so looking for the easy way 🤣
lorrgs falls apart the later the content goes on because groups just kill the boss in like 20 seconds and it ruins the site
oh well shit, just enjoy the damn game
Yeah well I raid mythic and i do bad numbers so trying to improve this season. So im trying to learn and suck in all the knowleage i can
is leech on one item better than having a socket?
wow is in honestly a good spot right now, yeah people have quirks with it, but it's good
You cam have both? Leech is an extra random stat
yes but I can choose shoulders with leech from vault that I can catalyse, or socket
leech is whatever
I am hopefully going to try H forgeweaver araz again today, but yesterday didn't go very well but got him to 16%. Very new to DPSing as balance, but I see that the main talent build used for forgeweaver on archon seems to be different than the standard cleave build. Very hard to tell if this is people padding or actually doing the fight as intended/trying to push it xD
I'm also trying to figure out if I should keep the collectors dotted through the fight - or only dot the boss/echo until the intermission? I do more damage when dotting everything, but I'm not sure it's actually useful to succeed at the fight
These are the logs from yesterday (yes I know I am very bad xD, just trying to improve, I haven't played Balance since Shadowlands): https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/C1kqWXGDBFJVhrHN
archon won't have mythic stuff for a while, but honestly heroic could be a decent indicator. if you're doing mythic right now then IDK what to tell you (I haven't stepped into mythic yet, only heroic)
What i did was focus one with wraths, and dot all 3 up and spamm starfall and near center to hit all of them.. No idea ig it was smart or not
Ah we are clearing Hc first. We are 4/8 after 1 raid. So we pick up the rest tomorrow. So not fuzzed with mythc speccs yet
ah yeah so honestly just #balance message
but yeah archon should be a good enough vibe since it's based off of logs that have actually defeated the boss
I will emphasize a bit here on how archon is a suggestion tool.
the Forgeweaver experience I have, sometimes (you) have to figure our if you need to need more ADD damage or more boss damage (most likely) (adds die faster, more people are on the boss. etc)
We were told to get more single target dmg because we had like 15% left on boss when we got sucked in. And when we changed we got him after 2 pulls or so. So yeah that boss is a little depending of groupesetup
that boss is a huge DPS check imo, wouldn't be surprised I we saw nerfs after RWF
if you have other classes that are absolutely cranking their hog on adds then I would pump into the boss to make up for it
I dont know all the short terms of stuff. Whats RWF and Hog? 😅
DPS is always a 'check' when you're undergeared
lmao 😄
Oink oink
I think u meant hoj
oh like "raid world first" and "cranking your hog" low key jerkin it
u feel
Whats our off piece this tier?
hog is 🍆
wdym?
We equip 4 tier pieces.
Which one we dont equip as tier
sim everything, but our long johns probably
Legs?
one of them gives us verse and crit, thats the worst of them
yeah
Okie ty
bless up
its legs
just forgetting it the totally niche term of "long johns" is covered in what's left of the american education system
Hello friends, I have a problem with the Hectiv Add Cleave sims in Raidbots. Is there any information?
real
Don’t use that sim option
you preferably don't want shoulders
Vers and crit are the best stats for us this season aside mastery
i want sims for "M+"
mdt sim is probably your best bet
Well that’s not an m+ sim and it doesn’t actually work
what do u want to know for m+?
what ur overall should look like?
or what the best gear is?
do it ig
why's that? (I'm looking up the shoulders atm)
i could sim myself
but this link gives me nothing
all the other pieces gives mastery
must've missed your completed sim link
it's not that important anyway
badass
sec i will fixed itz
can always compensate by equipping different rings etc.
for m+ if u play EC u can just fully stack Mastery haste
How easy is it to replace jastors?
ur not wrong but thats just EC
Again don’t use hectic add cleave
It’s not supported for balance
i mean hectic add cleave + 5mins + 5bosses is not the best to sim for sure
yeah sim for your different specs
To sim for m+ most people either just sim patchwerk 5m1t and call it a day or use mdt sims
oka ythanks, i wil check the MDT Sims
Ok but deathless hm pug? Impossible
I understand why they would be so selective
I haven’t even cleared hm for heroic drops this week
if I had a dollar everytime someone failed to list their group properly
I'd be rich
Bro the one thing that pisses me off about lfg is those groups up for 15 minutes for a 10, like bro how selective can you be
these people need banning
one for the group reasoning
two for failure to put it under mythic
and three, above all else
LISTING EVERY KEY NUMBER
so it comes up
That’s criminal indeed
plus, 50k is poor hours
As if people interested in higher keys are going to see that and think yeah you know what I’ll join this guy
Wtf are you running 4s for
me bad
gear bad
and pug
so have to do the rating ladder
whats hero gear, 6s?
is 2x2p rentable?
I somehow managed to skip a bunch or the ladder climb this week by just forcefully applying to 9s and 10s with like no key timed
sure but my pisslow rating would never get me in so why bother
yeah you see..I'm a warrior
It’s better then s2 4p
okay thanks
i just hit 700 ilvl, and now i get instant invites to 10s again, people love that 7 lol
i cant decide if i should just send a staff craft next week with 2nd spark or just wait
any advice
Wait for vault, possibly first mythic kill if you raid mythic
craft is bis, i went 1h dagger for the aforementioned 700 ilvl week 1 lol

IS Dagger+Offhand bis or Staff Bis?
That’s actually the first time i see a wrong decision
@crafting
ok I'm taking mine off
I think sims put dagger from fract + crafted oh above 2h
i mean crafted i start in 2-3 Weeks in Mythic
it's 1 catalyst a week right?
wondering if crafted 2h is just better to start with to avoid competition for voidglass weapons
No every 2 weeks I’m pretty sure
alternates between spark and catalyst every week
next week is spark, week after is catalyst
not run norm yet but itd be a pug and idk if just easier to catalyse for 2p lol
Hello guys, with 4p how do we use 3rd CA ? Do we wait an other stack to double CA ? Or we just send on like 2 mins ?
You send at 2 so you don’t sit on convoke
Seems logic ty
do not use that third catalyst unless it gives you 4 piece no matter how tempting it is lol
You gotta be trolling to not have 4p by week 3
On this 3rd CA should I send dryad's surge at the very end of CA or should i wait next eclipse for boat ?
you can be really unlucky
Well dryad buff is 15 se ones
If you’re in a guild running heroic / normal and preparing for mythic, you’ll get one tier piece from raid by week 2 almost guaranteed
there is a non zero chance that 0 druid tier pieces drop lol
There’s a 100% chance that curios drop from both normal and heroic
what if you have mages
I mean if your loot council hates you i guess it’s gg
at the end of the CA
pool AP to make sure you can cast it there
What if you only pug raid and vault hates you 
thank u
3 vaults + 2 cata + 3 normal/ heroic/ lfr reclears
Its very very unlikely you don’t have 4p
Oh boy my key rolled into floodgate #365,788 of this week
Bout to crash out
Coulda been halls
but naw
So more unlucky than trolling
Well if you’re out here picking random shit from vault instead of tier set pieces when youre pugging all raids you’re trolling
2 second wrath casts going hard
there goes a bricked gambit
sometimes I think tanking is easy
then I see these people
How do you guys solo t8 delves? Even with Brann as tank, I die once mobs get on me. (ilvl 662)
healer brann better
remember to pick up the health pots he throws around
take treants that taunt and play around your cooldowns
use vortex/typhoon well
Hey guys, need a little help with a macro! I actually use a Brez macro with mouseover, but if i was shift in bear form, i can't use it. How i can add something to swap form and lauch it (only if i was in Bear Form). thanks 🙂
i think casting rebirth shifts you out unless you're specced into guardian no?
Do youtank brann as tank or dps?
you only make brann tank if you're a healer tbh
think so, but i had the issue just now in a dungeon, tooltip say i need rage when i shift bear
tooltips lie
you need 30 rage to rebirth in bear right
Y, can't do without rage 🙁 So, what i can add in macro (/cast [@mouseover,exists] brez ) to avoid brain lag when my brez don't go 😄
you'd want to cancel bear form in the macro, but really if you're in bear form as balance and need to res you're probably dead shorlty anyway
doesnt casting rebirth in bear just auto shift you
Are you tuning the APL by hand or utilizing machine learning?
is that with fluid form
didnt know rebirth was considering a human form
AI doesn't know APL well enough
no clue i'm just curious
cause im p sure you shift out if you do it in cat
but bear has a rez just costs rage
the ferals are prob pissed about that
yeah but unsure if that version of rebirth is flagged just for guardian spec
and the tooltip sucks
How much has it been explored? Genetic algorithm probably do at least as good as the hand tuning?
i remember being pissed having to rez on fyrakk cause it took 3 gcds
doubtful
it could only be situationally useful for helping you write specific logic
you know you dont have to have AI do everything for you
you can in fact use your brain to do things
machine learning != AI
you can probably start feeding the machine a bunch of APL and see what it cooks up
but without basic understand of what specific rotation you are trying to accomplish it would surely just be doing weird stuff
im pretty sure the first thing it would do is ignore eclipse or think it sucks
need to feed it the current version of SimC with the class module and conintously update it as the modules get updated
Thanks for ur answer, i just add something to change me in moonkin form if i'm in bear form 🙂 But ive no idead before today it doesn't auto shift me
Clanker knows it well enough
I just tested in bear
had someone die next to dummy in Dornogal, mangled Dummy to hit 30 rage and pressed Rebirth, insta shifted me out and didn't consume the rage
so... raidbots isnt letting me sim for multi target. anyway to fix this. it says is not supported for the class/spec?
so its a guardian code then yep
Yes, sim patchwerk and don't use fight styles that aren't supported
If by multi target u mean dungeon slice, yea because it's not supported
Dungeon Slice has never been supported for Balance, but people never bothered reading the big yellow warning saying it doesn't work, so Raidbots disabled the button instead
Gastank*
he is mr raidbot
Mr Raidbot 👀
ok, weird, so patchwork got it!

hey guys i just killed mythic plexus sentinel, can somebody tell me why i don't gain my 4pc in intermission 2 & 3, respectively at the 4min and 6min marks
o/
Morning boomies, got a trink question. This Diamantine Voidcore, is it good cause you're constantly inting mana prepull or during, or just good in general?
Or ig for the set bonus.
i imagine it's either bugged ( Which sucks massive dick ) or the log just didn't pick it up?
this is the opener for the second parse on plexus M
what the actual fuck is this
We gain too much mana to effectively stay at 25%
ARCTIC i need you to exbalin why he didnt get dryad buff i am confusion
I'm at costco
i have vod but its negative fps
is potent entchantments getting morer relevanz now
depends on fight timers
aight thx
can just generally lower spell density / particle density i believe
ty
Are we cranking in keys right now? I’m wearing my old gear(haven’t gotten anything new minus cape) and I’m destroying people overall or atleast being close to geared players
Go to summary and click the export button
ty ty
U got a 16% buff and others need tier to get that kind of buff
Youre also pugging with people who are most likely missing fingers
how is balance rn? worth trying? (maining resto)
What would be "worth it" in ur eyes
fun, and not always the lowest dps
Fun is subjective, not always the lowest dps depends on how you play and who you play with
It’s technically not very good in st scenarios numbers wise and it’s ok in m+
fun is subjective (its not very fun)
stupid question - does top gear account for embelish? reckons i should drop my ring with the lens embelish for a 701 ring haste/mastery
it does yes
I am having fun and not the lowest dps
But that fun will slowly fade away
Because once everyone gets gear and tier u will start losing
oh :/
Hopefully when Araz gets nuked u can delete p3
Arctic are you still at Costco
I am getting gas
Hi how od you feel about KOTG in Mplus? is it much worse there then Elunes? I have such a hardtime not getting mad about the Elunes 4 piece
Why r u getting mad at the 4p
And keeper does zdps outside of cds
Where EC can generally stick with people
SOmetimes i just sit on stacks and they run out before we can pull another group
I mean ok
Tell ur tank to pull
It’a not smth you have control over so don’t stress about it
I see will try to get more used to it then
It's also week 1 of people learning routes and ability to pull
Worrying about the min max of shit is kinda crazy
lol EC’s 4pc is a joke, I cant have it every mob from start, even sometimes 40% trigger cant stop the buff stop
20sec duration rly too short need buff
skill issh
But u don’t agree the 20sec buff is too short? Once one of ur team died , the time waiting him and go to next wave. Ur buff is end
And u need even pay 4-8sec to dot before foe
Stonebound Artistry out performing Radiant Power in ST and AoE sims for anyone else? Dont see it suggested in any guides
a lot of talents are within margin
for me councils guile outsims in st with new 4pc
councils and artistry pretty close for me, both ahead of radiant power
Well it should out perform it in st
Pulsar plz
yeah you lost dryad buff at 4:10
it didn't empowered your surges
you can see the dryad afk
hm unlucky maybe forced back to EC due to bugs
she stopped casting when convok ends and then disappear
it stops casting after 5 that's normal
happened on previous pulls as well at the same timing
and again at 6 mins
both during intermissions
Damn imagine if you couldn’t los your dryad without losing dmg that’d be insane
it was doing damage so
wonder what caused it
ya the dryad buff expires at the right time, 10s later
something prevented the favor buff from applying
it lasted for the right amount so doubt it died
nvm it doesnt go off before
ya that dryad doesn't take damage or get stunned in hte log
if it got stunned that could be it, they often forget proper flags to allow stunned actors to act
it fades before those go off tho
why is droptimizer showing me that new tier is less dps then last seasons tier set
it sims items seperately
ah i see
u dont use droptimizer for that
ty
2p2p is good
wonder if it dies to aoe
aight. i just dont know if 20% increase from shrooms is worse then 2 new pieces
@normal pilot so the dryad can take damage no?
for aoe
2p 2p good for keys
the Starfire buff from 2p better than Undermine 4p
@lucid olive ok thanks 😉
In st with kotg. If you enter lunar eclipse by mistake. Is it better to still spam wrath? For those 12 seconds.
yes
Ty
yes it had finished its 5 surges
anti scaling
