That say a lot about you π π π
what else am I meant to do before xpac drops
I thought I had my main picked out (sin rogue) and decided to check out balance and love it

JOND
god I forgot about him, it should've been him though 
Yeah itβs a bit like that. Not the biggest fan of Eclipses but otherwise itβs good
what are you a fan of?
this
isn't it beautiful
taking kindling and incarn for single target
true
@lucid olive link me a quicksim
I like how you can apply or refresh dots on the move and how they spread to other mobs. Allows you to move and also gives you something to cast if you have to move. I just need to get used to paying more attention to eclipse uptime
no convoke is poggers but also holy fuck i will fall asleep raiding now
1:48
and yeah can prob move the "starsurge if ascendant stars" up one so it doesnt spend it on a free starfall
if thats what you mean
Am I missing something here, or how does starlord stack to 3?
magic..
prob a sim bug
it looks like solar eclipse is giving 1 stack of starlord
happens here too
that is not what i mean no
so we're even worse than the sims 
but its playing good there
@vital hound whys he talkin
I have more time left @ work
ud want it to do more of this
aka wrath surge for touch fishing
but its just using boat window
not used to eg ap reduction on surges
23.236 Player 'Base' performs Action 'sylvan_beckoning_starfall' (1264671) (69.488)
23.236 Player 'Base' gains Buff 'starlord' (279709) (stacks=1) (value=0.04, time_duration_multiplier=1)
so it sounded weird for it to just do that but it has a lot of ap
@normal pilot
@lucid olive drop the moonfire on pull tho
i dont need it
also eclipse after sunfire
using eclipse before incarn on pull was a loss every time i tried it
after u fixed asc eclipses
are you pooling in between eclipses
solar bolts
no every time i tried to add astral_power.deficit stuff to eclipse it was a loss
that sounds wrong esp with incarn
eclipse is just buff.starlord.stack<3&((!buff.solstice.up&(buff.touch_the_cosmos.up|buff.starweavers_weft.up|buff.starweavers_warp.up))|(cooldown.force_of_nature.remains>15|buff.harmony_of_the_grove.up))|
did u check eclipse cd as well
this sounds wrong
it wont matter on 5min maybe
but it will matter on longer fights
yeah for sure
he is not teaching anyone anything yet

because ur basing everything on not pooling
so stuff will differ
the module was updated
chickentude
and i spent a few hours writing an apl
how am i attituding
im just telling dsune hes wrong
i think first goal has to be
(aka ur or you is not personal)
figure out 5min APL baseline
what is worth doing or not
then u can iterate from there
i think you need the fun control check here btw. would be fine to press eclipse right as trees come up for example if you had control
think thats wrong with this iteration
(and a CA charge)
yeah but more eclipse > less eclipse
the goal will always be to maximize eclipse count
even then its technically not wrong to find whatever is best in a 5min sim
even if you would play differently on longer fights
assuming any of that is even the case
what trinkets is sim using
guess lower eclipse uptime is what pushes incarn to be good
1.5 min araz-like and voidcore-like
well
bicotti derived that
incarn good because it means u get more time inside eclipse
meaning that how u use ur time outside of eclipse matters less
meaning that if u dont pool with apl = incarn better than convoke
if u pool with apl = convoke better
because it cant just decide on the spot if u make it onedimensional
incarn better than convoke?
because if u play convoke it will prob brick eclipse in the 5:30+ fights
73% eclipse uptime
you do realize that in actual play you will still be using convoke...
yea well thats not relevant right?
and longer sustained combat is diffy...
unless ur not pooling at all
then u can say
yea this uptime number matters or it doesnt
because u will naturally generate downtime if u pool
u need to count wasted ap and/or spenders outside of elcipse
yea if u pool ca will become better
if u dont then u artificially inflate incarn
and other way around ig
yeah convoke is
missing a tree cast entirely
and it has control so should have held for eclipse
criminal

Donβt wanna
Now that we're (likely) playing 60 sec trees, and CA is 120 instead of 110 or whatever it was, is there a huge benefit to control of the dream? Or is it just for flexibility?
but it needs to wait for eclipse cycles
yet again
I guess the other option on the choice node isn't strong enough to want to send trees and CA on CD regardless of eclipse state
apl will be some cringe fat line
unreadable nonsense
well
what option on the choice node do u mean
The extra charge of wrath splody thing
oh u mean
Instead of Control
control
Yeah so playing strict 1 min timer
idk how that plays i lowk dont even want to think about it
Instead of flexible with Control
but its not going to play 1minute
becuase of eclipses
u cant just force it to ca on 1min it wont line up
u always need to hold ca a bit
lemme dig dsune dms maybe i can find the ss i cooked up
but this is assuming u play convoke
and assuming u play eclipse on pull
and u pool 5sec per eclipse
for starlord window
Trying to build the best talent tree for lvling if anyone has an idea haha
Also crit scaling I guess
ill give u gimme 5min
its basically just any cd paired with as many spenders as possible
questing is so much combat downtime cds are v good
something along these lines
take trees can taunt and ur fine
u can drop mushrooms and/or foe if u dont want ot click 50 active buttons
u can get stellar amp and firmament or orbit breaker
"50"

well u have
oneth
foe
fon
mushrooms 3 charges
eclipse
me and bicotti argued foe fon feels bad alone just in a raid fight
and u add mushrooms on top it will feel too much prob
esp if ur leveling
and we were playing rattle on oneth ur even more starved
for globals
ive never needed taunt trees leveling idk
Well yea then u dont need trents
Why would u level as anything other than guardian
Or pay like 10k gold for iranian boost
What
Might be hard to get one soon
just like it has been. gamz trying to fight the fact that its still gonna be cursed
but oh well
Maybe u should help him make it not shit
was around 68% eclipse uptime for a 495s (8min 30s approx) fight
Biggest downtime 30s
β WCL
β
Excel
Wild to specify 495 seconds and then also approximate that to a round number like 30
Guys what is giving me both eclipses outisde of cds when i manually enter it ?
Talent in the lower right-ish
Oh total eclipse right, ty
/pray
lb
weaver is goated
What does lb mean
little bitch?
no u
Moon i love u
That's toxic
lie buzzer
Ok not bad
the fuck is a lie buzzer
i also would like fullmoon to see some play but they sadly cant get it right
bro it's okay, we get pedals and blast wrath ss all the way through midnight
but what if it did do massive damage
Ye what if
Question for you guys
Do you guys vibe with eclipse being a button? It feels so ass
it's just a button
it's ok not much too say
zero feelings attached to it if hones
t
you just press it and you do a bit more damage
i just beg for a convoke remove
I liked it way more when it was the two spells activation thing
now that, imo, feels ass
Pressing eclipse now feels so fucking dumb
You liked having to sit there casting a spell and potentially losing uptime vs instant cd with zero uptime loss?
Ye
I dunno, it's on-demand damage
Smolder Crit thingy
dunno how that would feel ass
Well bolts are bad too
Felt like a more interesting playstyle
I dont like buttons that are just press this to % damage more
So u don't like CA or incarn?
WoD eclpise was good ? i just starded the game at this moment and was playing rogue
or any cooldown for that matter
Me either honestly
It was already like that tho. Now you just press once
Its more interesting because the cd is longer so you plan around
U plan around ur eclipses too
But its on a way shorter cd
... Ur doing 1m fights
Having 100% uptime on a cd
When u do a 5m fight and have 70%
If a cd has this high of a uptime it should be a passive thing
So fury of elune should be passive
Or do something else besides just do more damage
they attached apex talents to eclipse :3
I just don't think u played more than 12 minutes with it tbf
Actually I can agree with that. I think that when we press eclipse, the enemies die
I dunno. Seems a bit useless to connect fun interactions to filler spells
Or played content in which it was annoying as fuck to press Starfire while doing mechanics
Do yah get a 'double dip' of bolts if you use that 10% proc talent for the duel eclipse?
Lets just assume shit now
wrath and starfire exist to generate* astral power
Easier to do so yes
Evidently
I mean, if u don't see the value in an instant cast eclipse vs casting 2 starfires... Idk what to tell u
It's objectively better
eclipse button shouldnt incur a gcd imo
It doesnt, it's half π
At least this
I also want this
so you can macro it to wrath or starfire
now that's way more exciting gameplay amirite
idk the button just doesnt feel good
If its something you basically will turn your brain off to keep up it should just be off the gcd
it's not supposed to feel good
why not
Idk man throw some flying wolves when you press it
it's supposed to fix the fact you were forced to cast 2x wrath / 2x starfire
I dunno it's pretty simple?
Do u turn ur brain off when pressing CA or incarn?
u wont turn your brain off to keep it up
but i wanna press and blast like in ca
you will be figuring out how many eclipse uses you can get while juggling trees and CA
in a fight or phase
Quick maff
and use eclipse on specific moments you need a tiny bit of extra damage
the only "bad" feeling about current eclipses is the random downtime after 2 CA's + 3/4 eclipses. When you sit in that ~20s limbo with no eclipse lol
there's more thought going into pressing eclipse button than just casting 2 wraths to go lunar
objectively
What if during eclipse u feel good
And no eclipse u just don't feel anything
i love the eclipse feeling, i just find the no eclipse time a bit long - think 5s downtime is fine, but 20s is so shit lmao
Have you tried pooling a bit of astral power sir
tf is pooling
i mean atleast in raid it will pretty much be scripted when you press eclipse
is it like drooling
Rather pessimistic to think it's bad to not be in eclipse rather than good to be in it
Instant of pressing shit as soon as possible
correct
aka more control
When u gain asp and sit around a certain amount for ur cds
So u can press surge more
sorry, i was just memeing
Kk I'll go back to being an asshole then
i was taking pooling into account when i said 20s
because if you press on CD
think it's a 32s no eclipse thing
but don't quote me
I won't be quoting u
π
arctic making new boomies quit again smh
@lofty depot say it back
If there's less boomies, there should be less bad ideas
but also less good ones 
Same % of bad ideas to good, but less
Not sure where the 20 seconds of downtime comes in
Hi Mr sir, how r u
That CA is wrong
Idk chicken just sent this earlier
idk 68% uptime seems like 20s downtime
You're not using that excel as data are you
70% of 300s is 90s
bro changed his pfp mid convo
nah, using me hitting a dummy
who?
Yes
Good how are u
Well u said downtime
Did my first heroic raid on my new spec yesterday
its 2nd charge ca at 90s
And I think Iβm gonna be the goat
Is longer cd, more downtime
Well u can press 2nd one w.e. the 90s press wasn't the issue
90s CD...
Which is now 120 - control if used
Told vinter to fix, he said next week
O well
That math checks outβ¦.
yea its a custom one
Arctic, thoughts?
i told dsune that shits wrong like
2months ago
(he din give a fuk and said make custom)
Oh is ur custom then
yes
Sorry dad
Can u do 145-78
yea sure

It works
It took me like full 2 minutes to make sure i didnt fuck up the substraction ngl
β€οΈβπ©Ή
cotti is that griffith?
Yes
when new chapter β€οΈβπ©Ή
yea i was talking to a friend about it, if this guy is gonna die on us aswell we wont ever see the end of the story its just cursed
Isn't it like 4% now after the crit fix?
and our ai overlords can finish it
you just made the eclipse sound like a dream
painting new pictures of hell
i know im vibe coding hard right now
Uhh my sim has it at 2.6
Real
not on ec
cause lunar bolt is kinda shit for some reason
for any st or reasonable content u will play them
maybe u drop on council fight but theres not really much better alternatives unless that fight is 8+minutes
and u pick eclipse cdr
I just said bolts were shit
or u pick that anyways and force more eclipse uptime for starfall dots dmg
Wanting them to be considered powerful
cause they cant be 10% either
why not
Why can't they
u want a flat shit proc to be 10% of ur dmg?
i press eclipse nice
so skilled of me
That's big dam
better have a flat shit proc to be 10% dmg and a random proc be either 1 or 20
dont put skill into the equation
when u get a trinket proc
nothing about this spec has anything to do with skill
and u cant cancel eclipse anyways
im not diego?
no ur iqnious
What's a bosstoilet
disgusting pig
how many mechanics have u done
Oh, you right. Remembered it wrong. Though it's slightly higher due to smolder
I r1 prog kill
in the 3 tiers ive played
games / lp
0
1v1
Smolder for those 2 points is 8%... So if 1 and 4 are supposed to be the most powerful.....
werent u
why would i want to be asigned to mechanics
leperchaun?
So nerfed smolder ig. But seems worse
whatever is discussed
That's crazy
More win %, less lp

im not blaimg
#truthnuke
Hmm he's making space
so its fine
d2 actually
He's giving enemy team bounty so u get more gold when u kill them
so i could run him down
bet
U get Kesha nunu jg
Kesha is the goat
at least nunu is op
and that guy doesnt run it down that much even
but u get bardinette
his mid picks bard
cause he hovered bard
then hes like
mmm yea lets pick
lissandra bandlepipes top
that was
wp bro
very criminal
new player?


Someone have plater mod to track moonfire and sunfire with plater color change?
That no work
sad
Was a crutch time to grow up
I have eye problem, you know some tips to track more easy?
realistically u only need to dot 1 time
u can tab spam a bit and look for ur dot on ur cdm
if dot not there then tab again
its kinda dogshit but thats what i do rn
it used to tab to non moonfired targets before idk when they bricked it
It's also likely u dot the prio shit and not everything with moonfire, but idk
But seeing moonfire on 8 mobs easier than 20
So shrug
It's also rather easy to dot them while being gathered and see what's missing
If ur waiting for them to be stacked that's probably an issue
u can usually dot in the front if ur waiting for them to be stacked
u just need to pay attention to what ur tank hit
or u need to know what he will pull and pull between u and him
but yea thats more if u know ur tank
but if mobs are too far away from that guy u will also not get twin moons hit so yea who knows
dotting depends on a lot of things to do it properly
Obviously easier if u know what ur tank is doing and where he's pulling to
i think twin moons hits closest nowadays
so u kind of know in a pack i need to click this guy then this guy
if its a 4mob pack
f.e.
so u click the 2 extremities u dont even need to click the nameplates u can click the mob itself
thx, Guys
need a good plater defo for boomie
Jundies platynator
why did people swap to playnator anyway
Just better
I think it had better performance when I last checked
(using plater ofc)
and the editing is way clearer
if better performance it's def worth swapping
Platynator was faster on updates and plater didn't update the debuff thing right away
with a given image of how your plates will look
Or yet even
but ye Plater just got left in the dust
Platers menu is also just always been giga fucked
My plater is just broken af
I disabled all script/mods and it works fine for me
but Imma put some effort in platynator
see what's up
that's factual
but I have that with so many addons atm
literal minefield
I only ever had one script for plater, I deleted it. And I still getspammed in chat by plater errors idk
Lol the scripts I had were for small adds being invisible
That was mine too
I think it's mostly that plater still has all the options that may partially not even be available anymore just like details because it wasn't built to comply with midnight API from the ground up like platynator.. since they also want to maintain the feature set for other flavors than retail without forking I guess
Also platynator pioneered some of the features we "got back" like mob type coloring and interrupt aware cast bar stuff
And it is just easier to get into for the less hardcore nerds
(Real conclusion: people have no patience)
Well, platynator is well-made with better UX (subjective ofc)
real real reason: platynator is aislop and people love whenever ai is used #aiforlife

Is it now

is it all aislop?
plater gang
platynator isnt aislop
silly goose
oiui is not aislop..
kapap
handcrafted (=shit code)
are you sure
nice joke dsuneai
whens ainight coming
Tomorrow
hmm
So if we don't get any buffs we blame tettles for not sandbagging enough in max tierlist
True or true
wdym he said he was playing an entire other class no?
Did he?
I don't recall xd
Tierlist still needs to finish or
π
for the state of the spec
Im fine with being blamed
I expect all eclipse likers to play the spec
Ill just laugh harder
psycho
I know there is a lot of drama for eclipse going on rn but since I never played any retail before I don't really have the basis to compare it to something that was there previously
Are you surprised
But I will say being outside of eclipse feels bad at moments
Placeboβs are strong indeed
in or out its not the mechanic that makes it poor
There's not drama
There's people that think it's a good change and theres people with a wrong opinion
Sure but while it's nice to hold on to eclipse in some downtime moments, it does feel bad because the difference between damage in or out of eclipse is massive and for how things are now sometimes you just are outside of it nomatter what
What do you mean its massive
it means like really big
Three fiddy about
Sixty seven about
Pretty sure people have about 0 clue how much damage they lose if theyβre outside of eclipse
Hmm which people
-_
Queue the men in black clip
Idk either and im turbo smart
So you're saying it's not that big?
I know how much
And I think you can only label something massive if you know numbers
Or maybe I am wrong
Could also be true
I'll hazard a guess mastery is back to being as tasteful as sandpaper though
(As a reference, CA used to be a 15% increase and thats our major cd)
Just simply looking at the eclipse tooltip gives you a general idea of how massive it is
That does sound unmassive

I mean I said massive but now we're going into somantics that's not the point, the point is I personally feel like it's noticable. To that I will add: as it should be....? It makes sense to do more damage during eclipse or else what's the point
15% is absolutely massive
Whats 15% of 30
He mentioned tooltip
45
Also implies ur doing anything outside of eclipse besides building asp
I could show u guys something massive on g
I mean, if you are vibe-based thats fine
Do think losing 0.5% is less bad versus 50%
Wow bold statement
U may think it's massive but it might not be, we call that feelycraft
So controversial
I'm "vibe-based" because I'm new and I'm learning everyday π never said I was an expert, was just expressing my pov as someone of "the general public"
if you're a wet noodle outside of eclipse then..eclipse should be impactful to compensate
Bro relax I am not attacking you
I try to read what you guys talk about here to learn as well
Chill I'm not feeling attacked π
We just talking
guys calm tf down
Donβt get why deux is attacking u for just wondering about simple things
We just need to wait for numbers thats all
Like calm down bud
Thereβs always downtime jf you play with cooldowns
I am calm wtf xd
Dreamgrove toxic as always
How about you play with 
Not you the other guy needs to calm down
Okay I kid
Someone rip a copypasta
This βDeuxβ character
lol
Deux giving ex dreamgrove mod vibes low key...
And I am just saying that you have no data to back up such a claim and that I think that it's more epistemologically sane to adopt a position of agnosticism towards things for which there is no good data
Is he respectable tho?
Im almost home
Walking and typing hard
Cant flame kekkers in well enough this way
Where when
Pistache
The best ice cream flavour is the basic mcdonald ice cream on god
Only 4.5% diffy is fine
is it pronounced 'doo-pectable' or 'doos-pectable'
Implying ur not spamming asp outside
Doos
2nd one is closer
thats a leaf, boss
Whatβ¦
PISTACHE
that's a weed at best
But deux more of a dβeugh sound than doo
i only eat the fruits of the pistachia vera tree
you starting a garden?
wtf is a pistache
Are you american?
Ohh wait I think

Fastes respec to resto in his life
can i ask if 60k overall in a 17 eco dome is good or will i get flamed
Suuuuuuuuuuure
you'l get flamed for asking
Bad cuz playing wrong spec
uh that doesnβt really sound that good but I think balance Druid is dog shit
So maybe itβs good
Are you on a demo warlock
Cause then its bad
playing the m+ build for ec on wowhead
Itβs probably fine
Were you the only one doing damage
More than enough
cant be, the machine is always broke
Ive been doing 14s on my busted ass dev only capping at about 45k. Granted its a 14 but im routinely doing yhe most damage
well we were carrying my friend's 130 ilvl arcane mage and there was a feral doing like ~3k more overall, but i beat him on the last boss
he went insane in the first pack though
Feral strong
I just cant see boomkin doing 60k overall in a key rn
feral #1
Depends how u pull the 2nd and 3rd area
He's carrying his friend now, so they can carry him later

The second worst spec in the game 
what's the worst
Boomkin
bala Dudu
fuck
Arent you listening
fun?
Im enjoying ddh
How do u know ita weak
Its got dogshit easy rotation and does good dam
Maybe we're strong

Good question! Iβve played it!
Liar
I'll be as oblivious to devourer as I still am to every monk spec
Are we doomed
Ugly lock
Prepatch pog
buried
But that was probably more me than the spec
Sounds like a u problem
Respectable tired of pressing defensives gonna play lock
whats the curling drama
Canada a bunch of cheaters
They be double touching the rock
what does that even mean bro
Have u ever gone bowling
It would be like if u started rolling the ball and then after u released it went and pushed it a little more
nice metaphor
shrek understand
That was a great metaphor for sure
@quiet drift check ur dms (idk if i'm spam filtered)
green for green logs
hello what talents are ppl using for m+ beta these days
Can someone explain to me like a little baby π€ π₯ kin why Tettles said we now have a really good defensive? Will we not be sitting bear form anymore ?
Am I crazy, or was NE starfire cast animation just updated in glyph of stars? looks different
Previously it was similar to regrowth, it's not anymore
CYGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWoMbNjxMDwsMzMzMLmBjxYZsYmZmNWmZZmZmZsgBAjttZGMmtBwEAAAgFmZmZwmhxYAAYmBGA
Something like that
Hotw is a good defensive
It however does require u to go to bear form to press, but 30% HP inc in any form
FF big value
Forcing us out of moonkin should be a hate crime
boomy doesnt have hotw-ff i fear

My disappointment is immeasurable
You're missing out guardian is using it to do more damage than both feral and balance atm
what is reducing my solar beam cd
No, crackhead
Hey guys - random elvui question - Does anyone know what could be wrong - I have party frames disabled, but its still showing the party frames?
Before March 17, that is my solemn vow.
seems rather late
whos ready for 2 weeks of normal dungeons
is our apex considered strong
ok
unless youre playing elunes chosen on single target
cause the bolts from lunar eclipse do negative dam
oh god is elunes looking to be played on st?
nah
