You can’t now btw
yes that's why would is past tense
So to high level players cause I am aspiring to be is it normal to have the healing and dps the same spec to become a master of the class verses I heal on Druid and I dps on hunter for example
Like does the gear kinda match if I went resto/boom
Ele is fine
I have been healing resto shaman on beta as a returning player I like
Resto shaman is a bit weird but big ass totems is fun
But I see what the long time players are saying about skill expression missing
Overall I’m happy with resto shaman but so unsure about Ele
I played totemic and it was fun but I have been testing faseer more
Hey thanks guys I may try Druid and test it out on beta
Hmmm does whirling stars cd nerf actually fixes balance cd mess?
its a bug with dominos
good one
omgbruh
action bar addons are almost all dead
idk what the patch did but its stayin off till that shit fixed lmao
are we dead in 12.0
Kotg just got slapped, EC got QoL, overall it’s fine still
Umbral being useable now and meteorites buffed there might be a real difference between aoe and ST builds now lol

what is your obsession with umbral?
?? It needing challenge node was sad and it was never going to be pick now at least it’s open as option

i turbo fucked my spotify wrapped
more like a beautiful fart
thanks I'll snapshot this feeling for the next few months
yea u would do it at the end of eclipse and starlord would have starlord for 15s or the start of the next eclipse
sorry late reply
is this like ST with weaver lmao
sadly deleting my starlord macro
yes

yeah pressiong starfall
mayhaps
lower AP gen = starweaver buff
ye
lower burst on treants windows = weaver buff


no thanks
the day ec is fun to play in raid is when they make starfire not a 5 year long cast
i like it
get so much work done
press starfire
go empty washing machine
press starfire
take out the trash
press starfall
its really funny when they cant balance something they just remove it
too much work, gonna delete
man, you press Starfire and you have enough time to acquire a chimpanzee, teach him video game controls, have him level a druid to max level and press Wrath before youir Starfire is done casting
Bro idk I just felt like doomposting
wait a second, we now starfall at ST in 12.0?
maybe
well u wouldve always done that if u playd weaver but nonetheless its 4 months til midnight is out and sims dont exists so grain of salt
Meteorites probably get nerfed by like 25% lol
did u read the notes or
You haven’t read chat if you asking that
What on earth is the sum of all these changes
The 150% was probably too much lol
added to the mastery
but too much?
that talent is behind like 3 others
and is always dogshit
It was 150% on top of adding to the mastery
EC is weird I dont hate it in keys but I dont think I'd like it in raid, maybe its because of the warrior of elune type effect which gives some decent mobility in bursts
"i dont like it because it gives some decent mobility" ???
my brother if thats the problem what are you smpoking
EC should make moons viable it’s what’s sad
there was plenty of times to try it in raid
shouldve
I didn't word that very well, I have used it on the odd fight here and there this xpac but I don't think I'd like it be the main raid hero talent
in midnight I mean
is memekin back?
Changes are good 🙂
That to me is what memekin is whenever we press Starfall over surge in st I think I remember it happening in legion for a short time
they gotta buff starsurge by 50% thanks
i was talking about dad buil;d in legion yes
I forget was it shooting stars giving a ton of ap that caused that build been long enough I've forgotten most of the details outside of that it happened in legion
IS IT BACK!?
Btw faerie dragons buffed again, just put the damm things in KotG already lol
might be more than 20% watch out
no shot do they let us keep this lmao
maybe the person tuning moonkin will conveniently leave to tune other classes and not make it back in time
I just want to be followed by 2-4 faerie dragons lol
nah hes locked in
hes making boomkin better day by day
hopefully next patch
To be fair stars might not need to be nerfed if goldrinn gets buffed
i will be casting only starfall during mythic raid testing
yes
@terse egret
anyone got a M+ build for EC updated?
go test some shit and let us know?
Didn’t you kill it week 498
2nd reclear
he killed it
type shit

like 20 fucking ranks ahead of us

shit
3 days 
why does blud only have 1 kill?
There should be a wr limit on coloured names
"us"
folty sat him
^
real
not take vacation during prog prob
yeah smh @cursive mirage bad leader
shit was planned 7 months prior
should have killed the boss earlier
idk dont play ass
oop
maybe dont bitch about not getting healed while you are taking ticks of the puddles? seems simple
mythic daycare drama in dreamgrove get your popcorns
looool

maybe on every other pull
have the healers heal me above 50% for 14 seconds
💯
yeah heal his character
i need IRL healing ngl too
he is Jesus H. Pepsi after all
@cursive mirage seems like a guy who would have podcasts on his Spotify wrapped
100% he is
Always remember an advantage of being a boomkin is that u can heal urself if anything fails lol
I havent even killed it you racist
I’m from Australia how can I be racist
don’t answer that



youre white name in spirit we all know
thats toxic
you would know
that youre toxic? yes i do
takes one to know one
Thanks buddy

You’ve spent more time doing side missions than playing wow man
Time to give it in
Im living proof that nepotism and fanboy dicksucking cant get you places in video game class discords
nepoloria
True and real

Guys why is everyone using diamantine voidcore? When I sim it it is less dps
proof?
maybe he doesnt miss his antenna orbs
@dense steeple do I masterball mewtwo
oh I guess M for mewtwo is goated
I tried so much shit for that little rock fairy and I eventually gave up
made me so mad
scared? just throw a reg ball
How is chicken looking in midnight beta ?
Me when I don’t read
you paying me to read huh?
Bro fell for a kekkers post
fuck

@dense steeple I'm so done farming this dog ass fox man
wtf is red moon and lunar wrath
some bear shit pretty sure
oh
was confused cause its in the balance section of the patchnotes
but guess that aura they buffed/nerfed there just has all of that for some reason
there's a bunch of that stuff that they never really bother with
yea i thinks they clicked some moonfires
old abilities still stuck in some template or copypaste
and for some reason lunar guardian or whatever the free moonfire proc is on bear
is counted as balance spec on wowhead
something something random shit
the bug/feature with us getting bear aggro generation when we press bearform is probably just the tip of the iceberg
didnt they fix that

idk did they?
i thought it was in notes
im not playing the game 😄
oh lol
mine is fancy af, first big room has a massive moonwell and trees and plants it feels like you're in a dark forest
a guildie yesterday made the exit door mega small and hid it somewhere in his house - some people got trapped cause they didnt know about the leave house button 😄

is it normal im not hitting dryad cap after convoke
im getting like 20m short sometimes
are you perhaps pressing literally anything with it
no i had not tried that
rip
Based
Potential Chicken Ambulance dream???
no mate
this is not shadowlands or bfa
ur regrowth hits for 1/16th of ur hp bar or something

its a blessing that keeping yourself alive via regrowthing during rot is not a thing
can just blame healers that way
i dread the days when fuckers had the audacity to tell me "just regrowth yourself" after i complained about healing
god bless its over
i still do that when i have the instant
the heal is nothing tho
but i aint castin it
ya
aint no
next to my name
thoughts for mplus keys on beta ?
just testin shit out
im so happy they adjusted the cds so they line up now
i mean sometimes when i dont have shit or when raid is not so healthy i even hardcast it for the dr
but at least im not sitting there and spamming it for 5-10 casts straight anymore
fuck that
i'd probably play kindling instead of that other talent
oh really ok
ill do that
what is the other talent?
100% faster starfall damage
the talent makes Starfall have a 4 second duration but do full damage
so if you're in a pack that lasts for more than 8 seconds there's no real point taking it
sounds pog for low keys
or for stuff like Araz
makes sesne
ty
How is the feeling on beta rn for balance ? Too good like in undermine ?
wat
You heard him
you still have 45s trees technically
well .. it did go from 24% down to 16% amp 🙃
thats already part of the 16
im just talking nonsense
but im not sure if this is technically even a buff to bounteous
as som1 that didnt check beta yet i just assumed it was pretty much just gonna do double damage
lol
rip
shooting stars is doin work tho
well there is a point u condense ur dmg more
also ur not perma in eclipse
boat also exists
the question is more
do u need to redot moonfire
if yes u pick kindling
yeah
Bro I'm scared to start
am i looking at the wrong notes or did they change alot of talent positions
(havent seen shit about midnight yet)
you can open talent calculator on wowhead and see the new spec tree
there's talents removed and reshuffled
Cant fall mewtwo or diancie anyway. If you kill it they cutscene it back alive and say go next lmao
impossible to grasp the scope of changes just from reading notes
they have changed a lot of talent positions this patch and in prior patches yes
they fixed them not benefiting from anything (at least they say so in patch)
The 20% burn is whatever
as in it's tuning dependent and not very interesting
idk astral smolder is probably the best talent out of those 3
Chance to play 1m convoke with new changes?
its pretty interesting because it makes u play good
well correctly
So far from the numbers, it looked like majority of dmg is starsurge, but they buffed some passive sources to make the dmg spread more even
and that meteorites buff is 😋
every other fight has spread cleave
we will eat good
meteorites isnt spread cleave
Yes, it's cleave
meteorites is single target
it's decent as long as u press starfall
so more dmg on fight that we do that anyways
lightblinded and the two drakes
Did you peeps play EC or KOTG on the lightblinded
So is this every tick or is it every instance of dmg ( scaling with targets?)
Pretty ambivalent
its every tick on your main target mate
this talent's best use would be something like oi 2target or something
or some cooked burst spend in starfall oi build with some prio dmg needed
on st oi spend in starsurge ec it was like 0.8%
which was not really worth a point
they buffed it by like 2.2x
so it would be worth in that build barely
actually they are also buffed by eclipse n shit now
so yea might be ok talent now
As someone who’s never played balance (outside of classic/tbc and that doesn’t count) what kind of spec does it feel most similar to?
Most of the specs kinda don't build/spend the same .... But frost mage without blinks
Weaver my beloved
1m convoke my beloved
Alright ban this guy
Parsed based on having total eclipse proc correctly on trees or not
destro
think its
autopilot nerf everything other than dots and spenders
ive not actually looked at how good or bad moons are
Not good
probably
they havent been good in a while
Source?
@lofty depot tldr yesterdays patch notes for me
There's no Sims to tell which are best
Find an on use with int or mastery and find/fuck around with a passive
It's raid testing, go test some shit
I pick the pretty looking ones
Half the people playing are playing sub optimal doesn't matter
@lofty depot tldr yesterdays patch notes for me
Moonkin saved
🙏
What does new whirling stars change bring CAs cd to
Idk how long it is currently tbh
0'd out the aura buff and buffed other shit
But u dont have a frame of reference to what that means really
The interesting parts are the changes to whirling, potent, and bot
Well 2m - control
But if u run 2m trinket, ur always sending at 2m
Back to the s2 ish playstyle
Uhhhh, idk.... They hate us having burst damage
If total eclipse is taken I'm gonna tilt prob :/
Just a far worse version of the pulsar idk idea
I gotta log into beta tonight and try it out. I’ve not really played it much so far
Oh yeah?
but you now always get the full moon dmg buff in EC
kotg as a whole just nerfed
early springs -15s vs bounteous 4th tree come out as the same dmg amp on average

so arguably the one thats less regular but bigger is prolly better
early spring should just be replaced tbh
Define nerfed
made less gooder
harmony got cut in half?
As tuning is not as relevant rn
I see
You didnt get the point
But yes thats a nerf to trees
Also got an aura nerf
i mean, they are balancing numbers between specs and abilities within a spec
but the harmony change is deliberately cutting down on the overall power level of kotg
as of now
I didnt dive into details, but it seemed they wanted to make it easier to align cd’s
idk if our hero trees somehow contributed to our overall more than for other specs for them to want to tune them down
I think the kotg nerf is more a sign thing for blizzard they clearly want less burst
This also might be easier for them to tune us
If there's a damage amp flight bot maybe better
Bot is the talent dork
probably. just curious how big the impact is relative to EC and other specs hero talents in general
Also just made aura 0 so we can see how bad we are throughout the expac ezpz
bot is what talent
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN
Ya zeroing out our aura is good for sure
It's called bottenous bloom or whatever
bounteous
Learn to read
maybe you should try
No
bounteous is just gonna be the default now
the only reason to run early springs is for stupid timing reasons again
which
i dont even wanna deal with
so delete that isht
Yest
Just make FoN 30s cd already
I want them to make EG good so we play 1m convoke
Can you please @ me or reply to my message when you wanna chat
I didn’t see this til now I would have loved to chat with you 🙂
Maybe I didnt tag you for a reason
Gotta live in the moment, else its gone past
Remember them words
🤮
toxic sarcasm
Deux is so full of himself he probably believed it too
I am a softy for deux ftfy
I do, yes

hmmm what would be the buff?
just take the duration and number of spells reduction out?
Mmmm salmon
The watermelon really just said that it may have came up in it a little bit self centered but did I kill a queen? Now Alexander McQueen got the wrist on glow and the bottles is on pour got the shimmy shimmy yeah shimmy yeah shimmy
If you don’t understand what I just typed that’s because it’s Nicki Minaj lyrics
the queen
Slay
well, no
i mean thats too much lol
Still the peak of all the " food" you've been posting recently
depending on where archon is in the states, it's still in season
Isn't ravec EU
yes
Growing crops after November scares them
It's funny cause once you get far enough north then it's just greenhouses and you're back to year round growing
I fuck with potatoes and onions though
still in season then
ah
yup
Are your winters like 30 degrees instead of 50?
oh sorry idk what that is in freedom units
potatoes the best thing to come out of colonizing south america
Wait yall get 20 F in croc county?
imagine if the spanish didn't go over there we wouldn't have baked potatoes
I figured it's just never below like 70-80 there
if it's 20 do the gators just freeze solid and wait it out?
IIRC they just sleep on the bottom of the swamp or w/e
i need an housing expert
@dense steeple this looks like you
my guild is on horde island or whatever but im alliance how do i get there
Damn soma getting called out for being Dreamgrove resident casual gamer
did i lie tho
I will choose to believe this
you drop a 20 and join the real faction
They poke their nose above the surface for air and literally sleep in the ice
That is so fucking metal
Apparently if you cruise gator territory when it's frozen you can see little snouts poking out
Pretty sure Floridians wither into husks if exposed to ice
Surely sunlight and 100% humidity will bring them back though
Not anymore unfortunately
press H .. teleport in
and if it puts you in a public, you can go to the guy near the activity board in town center and ask him to show other options hich opens the neighbourhood browser
there is a new button in the micro menu
can also just bind it to something in settings i guess?
but you can also just go to alliance neighbourhood manually
through portal
and then talk to the dude
The lil house button on the menu ui thingy
Did they kill elune chosen?
No
wanna see my outside
Yes
idk bro really weird to h ave to go out to buy shit
they should have the store on a window
They’re saving that for the next $120 store nount
Looks good man
Keep me updated as you add more 🙂
I’ve been focusing more on the inside of mine
havent done the inside yet
proper druid house entrance room
have a guy on my friend list who made a spiral staircase out of a bunch of the silvermoon pillars
looked sick
pog
Tell him to go touch grass prob
I think the majority of people that housing appeals would be the same people that enjoy having to go get stuff from different zones
To unlock stuff I guess
Yes
Idk the answer to barbie stream house simulator
I built my horde house before I joined my alliance guild house
Try theneighborhood finder
Ye but u gotta remember which sells what
yes im saying its absolute dogshit
as per usual
let me RP fly to a vendor to buy shit
very interactive
so i am trying to learn balance druid on beta, never played it before. Trying out Elune's Chosen for M+, does the rotation go kinda like this for aoe? Apply Moonfire twice to cover all targets, i.e. at the dummies i have to tab cast to apply to all, then Sunfire, then Fury of the Flame, Eclipse, Starfire then instant Starsurge, Starfall to extend dots, then what lol
I mean the whole housing in general is shit. No one is gonna use that after midnight releases
I dont even know why people asked for it
do we have a pin? or anything with general rotation described
no
learning how to play druid on a beta is definitely an interesting angle
you just press filler then spender
what u said is like correct
ok i will keep at it
why when its my first time ever playing the class would i want to learn it in retail
i do have a level 80 druid i could if its better to learn on retail but i don't have my tier set
cause there will be quite a lot of changes, and core druid is the same on retail
less buggy
I dunno, tons of differences
but ultimately it's up to you
hmm i just was thinking it would be better to learn as changes are being made so when midnight releases i have a foundation but if you think its better to try it out on retail i can do that
yeah I get the thoughtprocess
i am playing shaman on beta but i have one already maxed out on retail
there's just tons more guides that are actually useful out there, for retail
i know the class really well
that kinda thing
lol true
Perhaps
Sometimes yes
Not often
oh so lunar eclispe use to require you to proc it reading AI says use two wraths to enter lunar so now i skip that and just press the button?
Stop reading ai
But yes, it's based off ur last builder cast... That being Starfire = lunar
ok
gonne use AI and see if it's smarter than gammiez
lol i don't prefer AI but i don't exactly see a beta rotation guide anywhere i will just keep playing with it
Well we don't know what is the correct way to play
And so is taking information from current resources for retail
i completely understand, ok well i will take that approach watch some videos on retail play and then find out what changed and craft from there
The problem is the spec right now plays a little different than say s2, which is more likely how we will play in midnight
The spec itself plays the same, but the nuances around sequencing in CDs and eclipse gameplay are different
rotation is probably going to be same just replace the 2 spells for eclipse for the 1 instant now
rest will depend if aoe or st (as now)
i guess kotg and EC will also determine it
would be funny if EC does end up using moons somehow
Idk if u know what the word fun means
chat gpt said im better than gamz
its hypothesizing things that gamz may have studied
if its only a hypothesis
it means he doesnt believe it to be true
Haven't simmed a stat weight since 2021
ew
this is how the psychosis starts
ur fucking ELITE
absolutely cracked
Call him a bitchass and tell him to do better
Why is it lying?
.....
Wait, 10mil deeps what the helly
i just realised its normal
I thought people started killing plexus under a min somehow
i just needed the robot to tell me i'm better than gamz
"micro-optimizing eclipse transitions"
the way you always go into Solar no matter in all fights all the time
cinema
i guess just having starfire and not using moons is fun for u
simming stat weights so I can be better than gamz
Incorrect, m+ and playing EC is not fun
right lmao
@lucid olive pookie login, it's a starfall fight again
gamz attendance check
type 1
1
just another reason i'm a better moonkin
no one can press starfall like gamz I'm afraid
doctors hate him for this one weird trick to do the same damage as another dps
with just a single keystroke
bald
jealous
Negatory
thank god i disabled privacy settings. wont know how much of a degenerate i am on discord
yea don't do it
heard adept was top 0.03% discord user
twitter users are already degenerate no need for a yearly recap to know that
I slept like 2 hours last night, I'm not logging in until tomorrow, just trying to stay awake a bit more so I don't wake up middle of the night

zero shot
crack
try crack
close enough yeah
drugs r bad
People r bad
incorrect
stoned ape theory
hey guys... i asked for more talents like Elune's Challenge(Elune-themed) in the beta and they straight removed it in the last update ig >_>
i dont see it anywhere.. gonna double check in the notes
nvm i found it!
we can get it much earlier now so that's neat- sorry false alarm
Why do you want more talents like that
they said it .. its elune themed
elune adore !
can someone send me a talent string to import for beta? the one in the pins isnt loading
Yeah I made the pin before the latest changes
I'll update it tomorrow
Just press some talents tbh
Is the mid beta eclipse broken, i cant seem to change to solar
challenge is weird
so many ppl are going to flip tables when missing challenge requirement over and over
its also useless for like the first minute of every fight
cast wrath first
i was spamming it, eclipse wouldnt change from lunar
u playing EC?
ya
EC is only lunar eclipse
xd
Oh i didnt see it say that anywhere wwwwow
its in the talent tree you ignored
would you even use wrath then
reason? and what could be done to be ''fun'' in ur eyes?
i guess its mostly starfire being slow as hell
no in EC you dont wrath really
cuz m+ is cringe
i do feel like m+ is more problems than anything else
id rather raid than m+ lol
then again what would make EC ''fun''
didnt you start pushing a bit and said you had a blast .. smh
i feel like it making moons good would be amazing since u have to starfire less
it feels like ap got nerfed on beta hard
Unless they make atmospheric pressure from Moons have 2-3x longer duration its never being played
ap regen
this is a good thing
whyy
when u get too much free asp, funny talents that give free asp and or abilties for free become worse
ya but sp[penders are doin more damage so doesnt that equal to less
i suppose they can tune
not if u cast less fillers cuz youre casting more free spenders
maybe i should take cosmos
?!?!?!?!?!?1
i think my builds off is all
i show one sec
i do feel like that should be half moon also
ok
CYGAQTZSEPz3dYY8IzFyVGEN9BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWoMbNjxMDwsYmZmZhBzMmZbsNMDjlZMGzYWwwAMALbjFMNzsMCAAAwGzMzMYzYGjZAgZGAMzAsA
idk if goldrinn worth
think u take OB
stellar amp for something aswell
is this for st?
it could be for everything
interesting cook for sure
not a cook
yippee
gj bub
gz
Gratz!
Grats on that spark man, you can make something cool now
the sims do point towards a crafted ring slightly..
What trinkets should I use for SH? Sim recommends antenna but feels like bait with the amount of crazy running around and movement restrictions on that fight.
Naazindhri also sims rly high but seems like simabait.
Right, figured I would be better serve just asking.
You think voidcore+parap or Voidcore+araz?
i said void core or parapod
Right, I have two trinket slots tho.
Your wording made it seem like
Trinket 1-Void/parapod
Trinket 2-???
trinket 2 would be lily or araz depending on what u had
I have void, and araz, but also a spare dinar lying around that could be any of the other things.
Seems like I can just keep playing araz/void and be fine?
ye
Ty for the feedback. ❤️
Do people play KoTG in M+ much anymore?
not really no
@lofty depoti tried ur cook hard pass in keys
maybe for st idk but that was a bad cook for keys
i think ec is better
It's not bait
for keys it was
u said it was for everything
U asked if it was for st or aoe
I have never and will never be the arbiter of m+
M+ is dawgshit
And will always be, dawgshit
The best thing fellowship can do is steal all the m+ers so m+ can die
I pray
To be fair ur an idiot
Trying arctics cooks is like trying indian street food
Idk why u expect it to be good
to be fair i didnt actually try it i looked at it and said fk this
i was about to try it then i thought about it
i tried it on dummy only
but ya it was horrific

This is still THE build
Total Eclipse
KotG FoE
🤢
foe goated
it's smooth :3
m+ 
30s ecl if ak
over eg lowk
if ur meteor storm u dont need
but u brick at like 5-7min
also they hella buffed denizens its like 3% now
m+
maybe like
nah should be
correct
maybe 30s eclipse still correct
can maybe abuse like
boat a bit
u cancel on purpose after boat with incarn
depends how much downtime u have ig in between stuff
and how high the key is
higher key more u need sculpt the stars
calm down buddy
(jk minigamers are fucking idiots)

congrats on being a newbie
It's not my cook
bruh
Shutup

mad?
you tell em A man
alright updated the pin
“Log out.”
Starfall in st???
Dejavu
Cant wait for that to get shot in the head and leave the spec in the dirt until it gets buffed 2 months after hof closes

Lol, I like buttons to press that aren't wrath and Starfire spam
Need more sandbaggers
Always better to be at the top, get nerfed by 3%, and still be top 10. Rather than be at the bottom, buffed by 5%, and still be bottom 10
That’s why moons are needed
So you spam something else lol
Ehh buff accordingly
FM cast while I make a coffee, drive to work, work my 7-4, and cast a wrath
Don’t need to be insane just competitive enough
buff what
FM doesn't feel good unless it does like 3 surge worth of dam
There has to be something that can be done to justify using moons
It's a 45s CD and it takes a year to cast.... If it doesn't do damage fuck off
even if EC would be better in raid, you'd probably still pick kotg for movement
as an example
I mean the cast time is its main problem true it’s why I do think it should be lower
would be a generational change
Nah leave the cast time, make it hit like the buffed surges
(aka highly unlikely)
Pay off >
But really EC could even have have a talent that makes the 2nd charge they give be instant cast but do only like 50% it would look flashy at least
Ehh let me use moons in PvP also lol
real
did you test druid in last few rounds arctic
This isn't hard
its okay
We have pvp tuning, we can make things worse in pvp
hrm
cast a bit more Wrath than i did last week
On dummy yes
but AP gen on alpha and start of beta was a bit much
I cant raid test cuz I work
But yeah reduce its cast time or add something with talent that makes it good (outside of obvious dmg increase)
the treants not giving AP from Moonfire is a little odd to get used to
