Yeah the stat squish isn't as big as people think

Was wanting to try out druid for midnight, as its the one healer-available class I havent tried in a long time and I like the themes of balance. Essentially the logic behind balance in midnight is build astral power, and then dump using starsurge in eclipses for the bonus%...or do I have this reversed since it also increases wrath/starfire in eclipse as well

lofty depot
#

that logic is also correct currently

#

build asp, spend surge in eclipse

#

on a ST boss, u wont be casting starfire in midnight, u would be casting wrath as your builder then spending surges in eclipse

lavish hedge
#

Okay seems simple enough, the wowhead/icyvein guides for rotation/cooldowns look seemingly the same

meager storm
#

the playstyle will barely change

#

unless we somehow pick moons or weaver

but the idea is to use your cds with each other

Hey, my guild is currently progging mythic Salhadaar and im playing boomie, when we wipe i cant shapeshift / buff / mount, i get a red blizzard message saying "you cant do that right now"

you can cancelform while stunned apparently and it might prevent it as well

even when i dont get mc'd i get the bug

its every wipe

craggy sonnet

how do you know its every wipe when you didnt know how to fix it 10mins ago?

but if it is indeed every wipe then no clue

i have only ever heard of it being connected to getting mc'd (and mostly during a shapeshift)

im not that shit that i get mc'd every pull

Might sound like a dumb q but should I just go elunes in m+ even if I am just going to do up to 10s? Kind of want to learn it well but the guides say might be better to do the other simpler one.

Just was wondering since it seems interesting to learn but might not be valuable in lower keys at first.

Been playing the beta, I love the balance changes a lot. To me personally , a lot better then it’s been, I love the choice of when to eclipse, pretty cool

I'm afraid im going to have to quit balance druid. I simply cannot manage all of these buffs and spells without Hekili telling me which spell to cast. Goodbye everyone.

Just cool spells , fat chickens and mad stars

Whats the point of using Control the Dream if Araz's fucks your cooldown timers and you're waiting anyways?

lucid olive
#

it's more for treants than anything else

#

you get 2nd set of trees at 30 seconds instead of 45 seconds

#

and you're able to hold treants for a fresh Eclipse without risking losing a use

lofty depot
#

U could sim it without and see the diff

azure sand
#

Would the sim even account for Araz being 15 seconds behind convoke and wait on it?

meager storm
#

u have to wait for trees anyways

#

if u dont use control u will have to wait 15s as well so at 2:15 u have ur trees up

azure sand
#

Ah well, ok that makes sense.

craggy sonnet

I don't know thats why I asked

I legit did not touch talents other than potent / grove

It also supposed to mean overlords, or?

I have the following Trinkets: Araz 8/8 Hero, Parapodia 8/8 Myth, Soleahs 8/8 Hero, Prio Sigil 8/8 Myth, Antenna 8/8 Hero. And regardless of whether it's for M+ or Raid, he always recommends the same combination of Araz + Soleahs (mastery) at raidbots.

craggy sonnet
#

you probably have a high miss chance selected for antenna

#

and idk how you are simming m+

latent trout
craggy sonnet
#

those arent really useful sims for m+

latent trout
craggy sonnet
#

(still surprised soleahs would come out on top)

#

you either just do 1t5m for m+ as well since stats barely change with target count (there are some exceptions with effects from trinkets or cantrips that dont scale in aoe) or you do a dungeonroute sim - there's a quick explanation on that in the faq on dreamgrove.gg

#

but still, you should link the sim if you have questions about the results

#

cause even that st result doesnt sound right

latent trout
#

Okay, thank you very much.

latent trout
craggy sonnet
#

i dont see why soleahs should come out on top

craggy sonnet
#

but since you refuse to link your sim, i wont try to reverse engineer what you might have done or not

craggy sonnet

missing em all

delicate perch
#

bro is NOT getting hit

craggy sonnet
#

also is the parapodia even in the sim?

latent trout
craggy sonnet
#

even in the 40s one?

#

regardless

#

as i said, these are not super valuable

#

or actionable

#

since as you can see its gonna favor active trinkets

delicate perch
#

these are some interesting sim settings though

craggy sonnet
#

disproportionally

latent trout
#

In all sims, I have parapodia, seal of the priory, araz, soleahs, and antenna.

delicate perch
#
  • even worse for a good haste stick like parapodia that does require procs/time
craggy sonnet
#

just do a 1t5m sim for m+ if you cba'd with the dungeonroute one

delicate perch
#

ya you're picking shit items for your hero talent and forcing them to be good then being surprised by them being good

craggy sonnet
#

if you do 5min, do enable lust

delicate perch
#

bros got a raid team for his m+ sims kinda based

craggy sonnet
#

can look at the raid spec sim tho, if you got that

latent trout
craggy sonnet
craggy sonnet
#

the thing you have been simming is only ever somewhat true for the first pull of a dungeon

craggy sonnet
#

and basically never afterwards

latent trout
#

If I don't use Dungeon Route Sim or the weak aura described in the FAQ, I should also use M+ 1T 5m sim. Is that correct?

craggy sonnet
#

correct

lucid olive
#

If you go through the hassle of changing settings for every sim and running like 4 different sims for m+ you might as well make a dungeonroute sim

#

Keystone guru is very easy

craggy sonnet
#

you can do another higher target 5min sim just to confirm that you are not missing stuff that is only relevant in ST (e.g. the voidglass cantrip / set is way better in ST)

It's for havoc but that doesn't matter, it's the same concept

latent trout
#

However, my ST sim is in KoG. Should I also make an ST sim as Elune? Because you play Elune in M+.

craggy sonnet
#

if you want to sim for m+, you sim your m+ talents

k

craggy sonnet
#

you should redo your kotg st sim tho .. since you prolly also did that with 100% miss chance

latent trout

craggy sonnet

you have your antenna set up to never collect an orb

latent trout
#

oh okay

#

🤦‍♂️ thanks

craggy sonnet
#

thats why i wanted you to link the sim right off the bat .. btw

latent trout
#

That explains a lot about why my Sims never use the antenna.

craggy sonnet
#

since thats not uncommon that you miss some setting that affects the result heavily

#

and you would prolly never think about by yourself again

latent trout
#

yeah

#

That's why I'm always happy to be here in the community.

#

It's looking better already.

craggy sonnet
craggy sonnet
#

for that one, another neck would be huge. oh remains a good upgrade if crafted

latent trout

I'll simulate both again, only with the trinkets that are currently displayed, and add my hero weapons. I thought my myth weapon would be better anyway.

craggy sonnet
#

oh yeah, your myth weapon should be decently ahead

#

upgrading the oh to 727 crafted would be a good dps bump tho

Apparently its a bug, and hopefully they gonna fix it by next week 💀

round field
#

I rly love what they did with the ui tbh

#

Instead of downloading a nice class wa you have to combine like 5 addons for the same functionality

twin lotus
#

so right now in PTR, kotg raid boomie has 4 cds. 30 sec eclipse (2 charges), 45 (or 60) sec trees, 100 (or 120) CA (2 charges) and 120 convoke , and then the control of the dream applies to all of those? What the actual fuck

round field
#

Yep

#

Welcome back shadowlands unholy dk

lucid olive
#

and then you add trinkets with different timers to that

#

but i think it's easy to look at it and think that Control of the Dream or Whirling Stars is the issue when that's not the case, the issue is all the disconnected CDR talents

#

If your CDs were all on intervals of 15, 30. 60, 90, 120 timers it would not be as big of an issue because the timers would make sense naturally, and Control of the Dream could fulfill the function it's designed to

#

it's the second one of your cooldowns fall outside of that cadence that it gets confusing, like CA being 100 seconds and Treants being 45 seconds

jade flume
#

more cds = more dmg

#

its good

round field
#

It does kinda line up naturally without double ca shenanigins

#

On a 2 min timer

#

As it was back in undermine

#

Hit cd on cd and its fine

lucid olive
#

yeah you don't end up losing uses

#

but hitting cd on cd makes control of the dream useless

#

but it was still played

#

the value of it was more in letting you delay treants for a new eclipse

#

and the decision on when to send your floating CA charge with Whirling can also be cool, like on Vexie where you held the it until the amp to get both rounds during the amp

round field
#

Well the 15 sec buffer from control still puts it under "on cd"

lucid olive
#

yeah but if you dont play control you dont have the freedom to hold for a new eclipse

round field
#

Oh no without control its fucking unplayable lmao

lucid olive
#

control is used to force your CDs to align without losing uses when the design is meant to allow you to shift your CD windows as a whole for spots in the fight

#

like your cooldowns are puzzle pieces meant to fit together to form a picture, but all the pieces are from different pictures and of different sizes and control is super glue

latent trout

Youd get 4 min lineup at 255 sec

Which is within control range

#

Except trinket

#

Trinket would be held for 15 sec

In other words it doesn't line up

#

Ok

eager raft

Sounds like it lines up fine to me

craggy sonnet

At that point you are losing CD on convoke already

#

It just doesn't line

If it’s not losing you a usage that’s irrelevant

Cuz u sent trees at like 330 prob

craggy sonnet
#

Yep, no issues with our CDs. Very straightforward. Got it guys. Basically lines up natty. Except you hold convoke for 30s

eager raft
#

If your idea of lining up is everything being identical cooldowns then sure. But when you’re actually playing the game it doesn’t matter if the line up is at 4 min exactly or at 4:20 if it’s not losing you a usage

round field
#

If you press trees on cd

#

You can press everything on cd when it lines up without much thinking

round field
#

Thats the point

lofty depot
#

So natty that frogs come in here, show logs, and I see them use trees + CA at 130

round field
#

You dont have to think about it

craggy sonnet
#

Obv that's not true because people mess it up and have been messing it up all of tww

round field
#

Cause its unintuitive to grasp

craggy sonnet
#

Which was the entire point of what gamz had been saying

round field
#

Im not defending it it sucks

craggy sonnet
#

Of course it's playable. Still requires you to visualize first or sim to know what you should be holding

round field
#

But if you understand how it works last patch it was fine without much thinking

#

Now its a pain regardless

craggy sonnet
#

Idk, it's still the same now. You basically play around trinket cd

round field
#

Nah

craggy sonnet
#

Yah

lofty depot
round field
#

Double single double or whatever variation on fight length is way worse than press trees on cd within control window and then pop cds when convoke trinket is up

craggy sonnet
#

How. It's legit the same.

round field
#

No its not lmao

lofty depot
#

It's the same

craggy sonnet
#

You just press the 2nd CA if it's up

lofty depot
#

Ca comes up earlier than convoke

craggy sonnet
#

And don't press it sometime random in between

exotic perch
#

the solution to all of this is simple guys

craggy sonnet
#

You still press trees on cd

exotic perch
#

just play EC

round field
#

Its like you dont play the game lmao

lucid olive
#

this tier is definitely way worse for CD planning than Undermine and Nerubar was

craggy sonnet
#

You don't play the game or the spec right now

round field
#

Cds this patch are way worsethan they were in undermine

#

Because of double ca tier

#

During tier it was dumb

#

Oh do i double single double

#

Or double double

craggy sonnet
#

The thing that's dumb is looking at which cdr talent you gotta pick before the fight

round field
#

Oh also timings are diff because talents

craggy sonnet
#

Actually playing a fight is not really hard

lucid olive
#

do I double single double with groves or with potent

round field
#

Ok i pop cd at 2 min

#

Oh shit boss dead

lucid olive
#

is the fight timer and stars aligned just enough for me to play groves or do i do potent

round field
#

Rip my dmg

exotic perch
#

idk man i enjoy this tier of how to do dmg

round field
#

Theres a lot of variance with talents and fight length

exotic perch
#

reminds me of venthyr where you dump your load and afk

round field
#

Which wasnt a thing last patch

#

Where you cd the same on every boss

lucid olive
#

the only variance last patch was bandit phases

craggy sonnet
#

Talent choice is the issue mostly. And yea you lose a lot of dmg if you don't get another CD window

#

But it's not super different rule wise

#

It's all anchored around forge

round field
#

Its not

#

But if you pick the wrong rule

#

Magic 8 ball how long will boss last

#

Hope i got it right hehe

lofty depot
craggy sonnet
#

You can press trees on cd other than the very last one

round field
#

Did someone randomly run off the ledge

#

And now im in wrong tslents for kill time

#

Yay

craggy sonnet
#

I mean, that's the issue of us doing no dmg other than during ca

#

I'm just saying the rule didn't drastically change

round field
#

It didnt

#

But it requires way more planning

#

And has way more variance than last patch

exotic perch
#

less time spend in farm

craggy sonnet
#

The only question that's ever relevant is, how many more trinkets do I get. If I don't get another one, I'll hold until I can fill blast

craggy sonnet
#

Harder*

round field
#

Playing isnt hard

#

Spec is piss easy

#

Planning cds is just horseshit overcomplicated for no reason

craggy sonnet
#

But the issues that folks are facing that do not have full knowledge of the spec are basically still the same and are gonna remain so

#

You even have another CD to play around and line up with trees

#

Ofc they do not naturally align

round field
#

Ye spec is very unintuitive for new frogs

craggy sonnet
#

That would be too easy

round field
#

While generally considered simple

craggy sonnet
#

Ye

#

And it's also very counterintuitive to what you learn from other specs where you usually get told to never hold CDs

#

And most of them also don't have charges

#

Which also seem confusing to a lot of people

#

whyd you craft at 714

latent trout
lucid olive
#

yes you can

#

you just didn't do it right

#

you can also do this

latent trout
lucid olive
#

just look up the english name instead

latent trout
#

and on 714 no more augment

lucid olive
#

yeah must be a german name bug

#

the english one works just fine

latent trout
#

i try it

lucid olive
#

idk I put my raidbots to german and it works just fine for me

latent trout
#

same in english

lucid olive
#

yeah must be a you issue

#

refresh and start again

latent trout
craggy sonnet
#

Prolly cause they don't have the resource?

#

Actually, should still show

lucid olive
#

no you can still ahve the option it'll just error after saying you dont have the resource

craggy sonnet

(I think?)

lucid olive
#

u cna upgrade it there aswell

it will be if u keep pressing the +

lofty depot
#

silly matrixes

latent trout
#

I didn't do anything else.

craggy sonnet
#

Silly game

latent trout
#

I even closed the browser and reopened everything.

lucid olive
#

yeah its not your browser

#

cause when I take your original sim and re-do it your 593 ring does the same for me

#

but it works fine when I add a new one

latent trout
#

Even if I do exactly as shown in the video, it doesn't become 691 but 593, and I still only have the option 707, not 720 or 727. 🙁

lucid olive
#

just put 727 in the box then

latent trout
#

like this?

lucid olive
#

yes then click the item

latent trout
#

same shit again

lucid olive
#

lol

latent trout
#

yeah

lucid olive
#

go ask on raidbots discord

latent trout
#

That doesn't happen with Gear Compare, because it works up to 727.

lucid olive
#

the problem isn't gear compare or top gear

latent trout
lucid olive
#

you probably have some setting wrong or some browser cache setting messing it up, but i'm not smart enough to figure out what so the raidbots discord might be more help

lofty depot
lucid olive
#

no it wouldn't use any gilded

lucid olive
lofty depot
#

that sounds like a lot of work

#

im setting up my beta ui

#

707 ring

lucid olive
#

yeah but that doesn't work with the ring thats already in there

lofty depot
#

yea but i make new ring cuz his ring is clearly german engineered and broken

latent trout
lofty depot
#

ruining the good name of germany

latent trout
#

I set my game to English and then used the sim string. Now it even goes directly to 727.🤣 🤦‍♂️

#

no words needed xD

lofty depot
#

might have to fix something here tho

kind raptor
#

Going to try some balance in keys don't think I have ever really done that lol. Wish me luck haha. I guess main difference in elune is you never use solar even on ST which isn't the same for grove. I guess will try grove since the guides seem to say it's probably more efficient for pug / lower keys.

lofty depot
#

it says that but that assumes u have 5 people with hands

#

and in most lower keys theres 1 or 2 people without

kind raptor
#

lol. right 🙂

lofty depot
# kind raptor lol. right 🙂

but ec is very easy to pick up... dot things that live long enough. foe incarn spam starfire and use starfall so u can spam more starfires

kind raptor
#

Yeah seems like it will be fun. So far did aff/destro survival, unholy and feral. Kind of neat to play a caster druid with some of the perks of feral.

lofty depot
#

perks of feral

#

....

lucid olive
#

cause theyre all off the perc

latent trout
lucid olive
#

yes you have to add another

craggy sonnet
#

the ring you have is already basically a better crafted

#

so no reason to try really

lucid olive

yeah it probably wont beat the eco dome ring

cant tell if its good cuz i dont have sim

go test some shit

woven flint

u test how it plays

#

test some talents to see what they do and how they interact

#

and u can see how much damage they do...

#

u just cant see it in a sim

woven flint
#

true

#

i have no idea if this is even worth it

#

also why is entering eclipse on the gcd

#

that feels so awfull

lofty depot
#

it used to be 2 gcds

lofty depot
#

sounds pog no?

woven flint

but my ui is a potato to

#

free ca sounds pog though

lofty depot
#

20% chance, not deck

#

soooooooo yea u can just get unlucky

#

granted its CA without the haste..... its gonna suck not having say trees when it proc

lucid olive
#

you see how much dmg its doing by running the sim

#

but in order for the sim to be built you need to test how individual talents work

#

if theyre functioning properly or are bugged

#

thats why you test, thats what alpha and beta are for

#

if you want to see how much dmg youre doing you can also just log

you know what you do in the edit mode

probably but its not hard to just place stuff where you want it

MidnightSimpleUnitFrames is the blacked out health bar and target frame, the Resource Bar addon you can find and configure in edit mode

woven flint

i cant get the icons close to eachother

#

there is always a small place

thats open

#

yours seem directly next to eachother

lucid olive
#

Cooldown Manager Tweaks addon lets you change the gap between the icons

#

the addon looks weird at first, but in the box that says like 1,3,4,3 you just put 8 instead

#

and then the horizontal and vertical gap is at the bottom of the addon settings

woven flint

lucid olive

the bar below and above the health bar are just normal action bars that i put there just to mimic how my live UI looks

woven flint
#

will fix it tommorow going out soon

#

so we basically have 4-5 addons

#

to do what elv ui did 🤔

craggy sonnet
#

Elvui does a few more things

lucid olive
#

yeah it also mines bitcoin

craggy sonnet
#

But surely there is gonna be replacement suite addon in case they are really not going to continue elvui

woven flint
# lucid olive gg

also your buff tracker seems also kinda stacke dis that also from the cd manager tweaks ?

lucid olive
#

sure, but its also just 3 icons in there

#

so it doesnt get off center

#

i just track solar, starlord, lunar

#

and cosmos is tracked in a bar next to it with the width at the lowest

lofty depot
lucid olive

the tracked bars look hideous though

Whatever u say

Finally took the time to learn how to balance even a little bit - it's awesome. KOTG is way more fun than EC for me, though - hiding behind the trees keeps me safe. Also, without glyph of stars, this spec is unplayable

delicate perch

I got too many questions about all that and I’m scared of every answer

exotic perch

Well glyph of stars is heresy

If you want to play moonkin you must be ok looking like a dumbass chicken

P sure in beta you can tho

lofty depot

in midnight maybe.... but its not like u should be deleting buttons on ur bar cuz u dont use it

junior spear

yeah i was thinking about midnight : the question was more wether i keep wrath on a usable binding or not

#

like switch from ctrl-1 to ctrl-alt-shift-f12

lofty depot

lol cuz ctrl 1 is a usable bind for a spammable button like wrath

junior spear

1 is usable and ctrl is a mouse button so yes 😔

So are we just supposed to like… CA -> Eclipse -> CA -> Eclipse -> repeat on beta? I know it was mentioned in some feedback on forums, but that seems weird. If their goal was to have eclipse be less of a maintence buff… it looks like our time in eclipse is still going to be insanely high

lofty depot

for the first minute it might look high

it is still high

if ur a top player u play multiple classes

and why play a worse one

lime pelican

just speaks of how low the skillcap of the game is if you're not rewarded for sticking to teh same class

#

since u can just reroll and master a new class in any given season

maybe the skill cap is good and if you can play multiple classes its better than maining and rolling the dice on 1
