#

does it look like the spec is competitive in raid and keys atm on beta cause on live it doesnt seem like it is

lofty depot
#

define competitive

spice roost
#

competing with other range in dps

lofty depot
#

ull probably not be last

lucid olive

if youre good you compete with anybody

if its one that gamz sent you, probably

Retail newb here… my boomie is ilvl 144. What kind of damage should I be seeing in lower M+? Ran a 7 ECO dome earlier to relearn rotation and the dungeons. Overall DPS was like 20k. Feels low, but I know nothing

wintry valve

#

nah i mean like

#

boomy aint gonna crank in low content

#

especially end of xpac ppl will just curb stomp everything

#

dps is prolly fine considering its low key pug end of xpac etc etc

#

give it a couple weeks until we're in midnight and then come back and we have a better barometer of success

#

So for Elune's Chosen do I press Wrath at all right now?

no

Gotcha, thanks

20k probs insane

#

Hey! So I made a new balance Druid in Lemix after not playing my old boomie for several years. Really enjoyed the way Eclipse worked… so naturally they changed it again Facepaw

#

Question I have is: Is solar eclipse just gone? Or if not how do I trigger it outside of celestial alignment?

#

(Aside from that new total eclipse talent)

grizzled shoal
#

but outside of that it's still athing

stiff nova
#

Ah, that’s what I missed - didn’t really look at the hero talents too closely when I was resetting stuff

heres a screenshot of my shopping list that i sent to a friend who i made it with maybe thats proof enough

drifting nova
#

I dont speak dutch

livid jay
#

thats not dutch grrrr

drifting nova
royal zenith
#

it's the inferior germanic language

drifting nova
#

you buy ears from the shop?

#

the non swamp german language?

royal zenith

its bavarian

kekker's brain is also not that frisch anymore

I also do not speak frisian

royal zenith

that would be something

livid jay
#

no way u know what frisian is

royal zenith
#

he kinda gets credits for that

#

ngl

livid jay
#

thats actual swamp german

drifting nova
#

the closest language to old english

royal zenith
#

is old english not derived from germanic?

drifting nova
#

atleast in understanding it

royal zenith
#

isnt *

drifting nova
#

wdym..

#

it IS germanic

royal zenith
#

😮

drifting nova
#

just frisian isnt real dutch

royal zenith
#

"a set of Anglo-Frisian or Ingvaeonic dialects originally spoken by Germanic tribes"

drifting nova
#

and frisian is closest to old english

royal zenith
#

ye

drifting nova
#

before the NORMANS

#

came

royal zenith
#

they're actually making it a rule in the north of the NL for kids in school to now study frisian language

drifting nova
#

or the vikings (also where egg came from)

livid jay
#

why do u know history

drifting nova
#

I..like it?

royal zenith
#

history is fun

drifting nova
#

I did my degree in history

livid jay
#

yea ok but did u study something with it or is it just random

#

ah ye

#

ok

drifting nova
#

even after a massive roadbump in mandatory education

#

massivley put me off history

#

for a while

livid jay
#

i always hated history in school

#

was just boring af

#

now i find myself watching history videos on youtube and reading wikipedia articles quite often

drifting nova
#

for the end of school exams, the history ones were specifically on two subjects I hated

#

they werent even real history

livid jay
#

cause its more interesting than i thought in school

royal zenith
#

well it kinda is boring from a young person's pov

#

versus let's say

drifting nova
#

turns out if you're not engaged with the content you'l do worse

livid jay
#

history in germany was so shit aswell

royal zenith
#

PE :>

livid jay
#

we did world war 2 like 50 times

drifting nova
#

3years of the history of medicine (boring) and something about the native americans (also boring)

#

not real history

livid jay
#

little bit of holy roman empire, some german reich shit, some colonialism, some usa

drifting nova
#

yeah..the hre didnt pop up once

#

ww1/ww2 about it

#

hell, not even the fun parts of english/british history

#

like the civil war

#

the glorious revolution

royal zenith
#

the roman empire and shit is way more interesting than what you get at a base-level in school

#

(if you dont study history ofc)

livid jay
#

we barely learned anything about other countries besides the colonialism phase and usa

drifting nova
#

the roman empire wasnt even mentioned explicitly

livid jay
#

bit cringe tbh

craggy sonnet
#

sounds like you are just not remembering

drifting nova
#

only from the outset of ancient greece and ancient egypt (both covered when we were like 8)

#

nope

livid jay
#

i mean we did roman empire aswell

drifting nova
#

I can look at a curriculum from back then right now

royal zenith
#

you'd get taught that pompei existed

#

and gladiators

livid jay
#

holy roman empire was just to cope with german history a bit i guess

craggy sonnet
#

talking about german school

#

the things mentioned are just like 10th grade upwards maybe

#

but sure, you are rather young below that

livid jay
#

i might just not be remembering some stuff ye but it felt like we went through the same stuff 3 times

#

are u german clankz??

craggy sonnet
#

ye

livid jay
#

hooly

drifting nova
#

ancient greece+egypt, romans in britain (not the roman empire itself), early dark ages, aethelstan, vikings, normans, 11-1400s kinda just didnt exist bar the tudor period (and there was alot of tudor history)

royal zenith
#

that explains so much...

drifting nova
#

way way too much time was spent on ww2

#

I know that for sure

craggy sonnet
royal zenith
#

I can't remember

drifting nova
#

having the latter years of school reduced to the history of medicine and native americans was just zzz

craggy sonnet
#

yeah, thats weird

  1. The Timeline (Chronological Approach)

The curriculum followed a traditional chronological path, starting in Grade 6 and ending with the Abitur (Grade 12).

Grade 6: Antiquity and Early Middle Ages

    Prehistory and early civilizations (Egypt and the Nile).

    Greek Polis (Democracy in Athens, Alexander the Great).

    The Roman Empire (Republic, Rise of Augustus, Romanization, and Christianity).

Grade 7 & 8: Middle Ages to the 19th Century

    The Middle Ages (Feudalism, the Church, and life in cities).

    The Transition to Modernity (Renaissance, Reformation, and the "New World").

    Absolutism and the Enlightenment.

    The French Revolution and its impact on Europe.

    The Industrial Revolution and the "Social Question."

    The 1848 Revolution and the German Empire (1871).

Grade 9 & 10: The 20th Century

    Imperialism and World War I.

    The Weimar Republic (the first German democracy and why it failed).

    National Socialism and WWII: This was (and is) a massive pillar of the curriculum, covering the Holocaust, the "Führer" cult, and the war of annihilation.

    Cold War and Divided Germany (BRD vs. DDR).

    The Peaceful Revolution of 1989 and German Reunification.

Grade 11 & 12 (Kursstufe): Deep Dives

    Students focused on specific "Schwerpunktthemen" (major topics) for the Abitur. These often included the development of human rights, the modernization of Germany, and international relations in the 20th century.

still remember the teacher saying "these 2 cases are the easiest and we chose for you"

royal zenith
#

I mean medicine is also interesting...

craggy sonnet
#

im not sure i've ever heard anything about the history of medicine

livid jay
#

ok yea i guess we did france aswell

drifting nova
#

..not in a history lesson its not

royal zenith
#

of course it is

#

like the origins of cocaine!

drifting nova
#

funnily enough wasnt covered

royal zenith
drifting nova
#

the whole the teachers choosing those topics because they on paper were easiest still sits with me

#

easiest on paper maybe but also the least engaging

#

and an unengaged student isnt a good student

craggy sonnet
royal zenith
#

teachers are basically always vibe-coding

livid jay
jaunty blaze
#

It definitely is right

craggy sonnet
#

you probably did ww2 as a schwerpunkt in 11 or 12

#

and thats why it stuck with you

#

as doing it over and over

jaunty blaze
#

You just remember ww2 because we get bombarded with it

#

But history lessons actually cover a lot

livid jay
#

i mean what also stuck with me is visiting KZ and shit like that but that was earlier, like 7th or 8th grade?

#

so we must have done some ww2 there aswell

craggy sonnet
#

granted, whatever you do in 5th or 6th grade .. that stuff may not stick that much

jaunty blaze
#

Which one have you been out of curiosity

royal zenith
#

ww2 do be kinda important in EU's history lessons

drifting nova
craggy sonnet
livid jay
drifting nova
#

met the very same teacher in the pub tettleslul

jaunty blaze
#

We went to Bergen-Belsen

royal zenith
livid jay
royal zenith
#

so it would've always been made more important when we got taught history

livid jay
#

im from Heidelberg so alsace it is

royal zenith
#

well it's not really an issue but ye

craggy sonnet
#

its history you actually still encounter and have to deal with in "everyday" life

#

so yeah

royal zenith
#

wonder how gen z thinks about ww2

#

who's a youngster (born in 2006 or above)

drifting nova
#

when do you think gen z starts

livid jay
#

hmm, never knew my grandpa's, all my great uncles died in ww2 except one of em and one of my grandmas still has some questionable pov's in her head sometimes thats all i got from them

#

i mean im technically gen z with 1998 i think

#

but not really

#

i think like 2002-2003-2004 is really the breakpoint

royal zenith
drifting nova
#

at this point idk whats more commonly seen for grouping, the birth year or X event

#

shifts it 5years atleast

lucid olive
#

history of medicine is interesting

The one thing I hate with the redesign, is that Eclipse does not have a pandemic window. I cannot recast an Eclipse before the previous one has dropped off entirely.

_A more powerful spell is already in effect. _
_A more powerful spell is already in effect. _

No, even if I'm in Celestial Alignment, it's just two different Eclipse buffs. Why can't I cast Solar Eclipse to extend the duration of the Solar Eclipse part of Celestial Alignment before it falls off entirely?
The beauty of old Balance was that you could time your Wrath/Starfire casts to enter a new Eclipse the moment the old one fell off.

_A more powerful spell is already in effect. _
_A more powerful spell is already in effect. _

Now you have to spam the Eclipse button until it can activate in that GCD.

u dont really wanna do that anyways

lucid olive
#

@teal sphinx

lucid olive
#

that one doesn't even need interactions, that's just a certified banger

#

idk if he tried to word it like a serious forum post, real feedback or a poem

#

i am confused

drifting nova
#

another year, no love rocket

royal zenith
#

imagine what people think if they read your content @lucid olive

#

OHHHHHH SNAPPPP

#

tbh it is kinda annoying you get that msg

#

but it's good you can't clip your major cd's

#

probably also better for OBR :3

lucid olive
#

yeah you probably wouldn't wanna cancel or extend your Eclipse like that anyway

livid jay
#

also with old system u still couldnt chain them instantly

#

was always at least one natty builder outside

royal zenith
#

well you can't really cue it like a cast so yea

lucid olive
#

you also shouldn't chain them instantly since things like Dreamstate proc outside

drifting nova
#

dont worry, they'l fix eclipse by the time the last titan comes out

lucid olive
#

I do get the idea though of pressing Solar when you're already in CA so effectively the Solar part of CA would last 15s longer

#

but you would still just never do that

drifting nova
#

I would

lucid olive
#

wouldn't proc bolts, dryad, dreamstate, BOAT, Starlord etc..

royal zenith
#

you get used to it anyway

#

especially when it will be linked to what you said

#

and you actively try to not clip

#

(you can't either way)

lucid olive
#

I think what is the most confusing to people is that it's still named Eclipse

drifting nova
#

what else would it be called

#

it does the exact same as the last eclipse

lucid olive
#

So people approach it in the same way they would the Eclipse system they have gotten used to since SL

drifting nova
#

that was a passive

lucid olive
#

when it's a completely different ability

drifting nova
#

except it isnt?

royal zenith
#

fundamentally it is

lucid olive
#

I'm not gonna get baited by Kekkers

drifting nova
#

it does 90% of what old eclipse did

royal zenith
#

yeah so that means it has changed

livid jay
#

are we pooling outside eclipse now btw? It just feels better to do it imo but do we know what the numbers say?

royal zenith
#

and is now a button

#

kekker being wrong again, what's new?

drifting nova
#

no, the other 10% is its now a cumbersome button

lucid olive
drifting nova
#

and stole warrior of elune at next max level

royal zenith
#

There's camp "spend instantly when eclipse" which is very loud

livid jay
lucid olive
#

I haven't managed to make a sim where pooling for Eclipse is a gain

#

but I still think it's the best way to approach it

livid jay
#

guess just pool if u can and keep eclipse cooldowning

drifting nova
lucid olive
#

yeah, aim for as high uptime on Eclipse as possible

#

that's also partly why Incarn is simming well

royal zenith
#

can you even pool properly with the ap gen we have

livid jay
#

it feels a bit weird when i have two eclipse charges and one ca charge
tank pulls a big pack and i wanna pump but for uptime it feels more worth to go eclipse first to get it cooldowning and then press ca after if the pack lives long enough

royal zenith
#

going into midnight, statsquish etc

lucid olive
lucid olive
#

also Starlord duration

#

and how aggressively you're spending at the end of Eclipse

livid jay
#

yea i usually try to pool some during starlord, some passive pooling while redotting or running around and then eclipse once im set

royal zenith
livid jay
#

cause i been spending quite agressively towards the end but i guess in aoe you wouldnt cause starfall just carries outside

lucid olive
#

Like you spend a lot at the end of Eclipse and you're trying to pool for 90+ before enterring Eclipse again you're probably losing Starlord uptime in the process, and it's hard to tell which is better there

royal zenith
#

at least sims will work sometime soon...

lucid olive
#

sims are working ish

livid jay
#

if its an aoe situation it might be better to not spend at the end if u dont overcap until starlord is gone cause u can use the ap on a starfall that gets buffed by eclipse and not on one that will be up outside?

lucid olive
#

the APL is just not that great yet cause it's just me and arctic right now and we're both idiots

royal zenith
#

curiosity question

lucid olive
#

not yet

royal zenith
#

I really wonder how much it will struggle

lucid olive
#

I think the APL needs a re-shuffle on how it spends and gens AP for pooling to be worth it

royal zenith
#

with starlord uptime and what not

placid olive
#

Can’t wait to race swap to Haranir!!! Really enjoy those new forms!! The red-ish/blue boomie form is my fav!!!

lucid olive
#

Cause just putting a simple "press Eclipse if above 70 AP and you have procs of free spenders" in the APL was a loss compared to just sending it when Starlord falls off and you overlap with Treants

royal zenith
#

it will starve

#

with rules like that

lucid olive
#

idk

#

Starweaver just chain procs

royal zenith
#

Interesting either way

lucid olive
#

like you still end up with moments like this

placid olive
livid jay
#

its just ugly šŸ˜„

royal zenith
lucid olive
#

here too

royal zenith
#

that means our spenders actually have value

livid jay
#

it means the apl thinks our spenders have value šŸ˜„

lucid olive
#

yeah they proc 4pc and they proc starweaver that gives more solstice uptime which gives more AP gen and more Orbit Breaker procs

royal zenith
lucid olive
#

it's a fun feedback loop imo

royal zenith
#

it's not sentient...

#

(thank god)

livid jay
#

maybe its time

#

for starsurges...

lucid olive
#

big breakdown

craggy sonnet
# lucid olive here too

damn.. that actually looks like you'd have to wrath into trees into incarn to try and snipe at least one dream burst in there

lucid olive
royal zenith
lucid olive
#

should prob make it Wrath for Dream Burst too

royal zenith
#

I will have it added to the server...

lucid olive
#

fishes for Cosmos procs too

royal zenith
#

is the instant wrath like actually number wise a gain

#

versus starsurge

craggy sonnet
#

ye true. but im saying precast wrath before trees

#

for stupid no-gain

misty forge
#

@livid jay bro u at work or u working here fulltime wtf

livid jay
#

let a man yap xD

misty forge
#

yap is one thing, bro's holding a shift down

misty forge
royal zenith
#

that would be great

#

oh

#

bad timing

craggy sonnet
#

or UE if you play that

royal zenith
#

yeah that's fair

craggy sonnet
#

and its free mobility in any case

lucid olive
royal zenith
#

doesn't it consume on cast

#

not on hit

craggy sonnet
#

oh?

lucid olive
#

yeha

#

they changed that like halfway into nerubar cause it dictated our opener

royal zenith
#

you would basically have to force it to use wrath in that specific scenario if we think it's a gain (that is IF you have the proc/etc.)

#

which I think gamz did rn?

#

Im not well-versed in APL, just applying logic

lucid olive
#

i just logged in to double check if Wrath -> Treants consumed dream burst before replying to him

#

i didn't sim it to check

craggy sonnet
royal zenith
#

you can check via logs no

#

visual feedback is not that great in wow either way

craggy sonnet
#

so like, you may not be able to do wrath > trees to consume.
but i always felt like the stack at least gets consumed only after the dream burst actually popped

lucid olive
#

yes that's true

#

it's consumed when the Wrath hits the target

#

but not a Wrath cast before Treants

livid jay
#

should turn the wrath green

#

spell designers slacking

lucid olive
#

it should be Starsurge and not Wrath

royal zenith
#

that does not read as something you can predict

lucid olive
#

the talent is called Dream Surge..

royal zenith
#

(the situation that is)

lucid olive
#

"casting force of nature replaces your Starsurge with Dream Surge, dealing increased nature damage to nearby targets up to 5"

#

imagine

livid jay
#

that with weaver

#

šŸ”©

craggy sonnet
#

would be nice, yeah

#

btw, since you are probably using the AP prediction variable for pooling and stuff .. i think i had done some potential improvements to that one

#

maybe changes the outcome in some cases

craggy sonnet
#

ye

#

could work with a pool_for_cdvariable again as well

reminds me of the PTR before Undermine

"oh but look at the dungeon journal, every boss has an add, surely we don't play all ST talents all the time"

lofty depot

Well weaver is better on st, so u play AOE talents anyway

Well it’s a little different now with mastery changes

lucid olive
#

is it

lofty depot
#

Yes and I'm gonna sandbag the convoke sim

stone ledge
#

Feels like we aren’t completely useless on fast small adds

#

Definitely still not good tho

lucid olive
#

so you're blasting pargoth platform or

#

I think that in a vacuum the mastery change is good, but the power they removed from Sunfire/Moonfire because of mastery they just fed into Shooting Stars instead

lofty depot
#

Blasting the little adds on bosses 2-4

lucid olive
#

you'd probably still want to dot adds like Loomithar rings so it's all the same thing in the end

#

shooting stars gets weird with AoE though so who knows really

#

i think you'll still be single target merchant while the melee meat grinder and better ranged specs handle aoe

lofty depot
#

Well it's likely u would do it up to a certain point. Most of the time during prog ur dotting those adds. But later on when they die fast ur not

You don't automagically do more damage in those situations because of the mastery change

Yea prob

Unless u catch a stix like boss

we may not be good on meat grinder adds still

Hello, I used to play healer since 10 years and try to get my grasp onto boomy (ironic I know). Are there any tips what to keep track off? awwh
I am rather casual in raiding and maybe do keys around the 15ish range when the expansion progresses shyduck

Boomy looked pretty in terms of spells on beta, so I really want to try that.

Best suggestion is reading the guide and asking questions

I mainly meant in a special way. The aura I used to use was the eclipse hud icon that procs but puts the timer in the middle of it. The icon that only displays for a couple seconds. As far as I can tell the cdm is just going to be like pulling the buff out from the buff bar and putting it in a more obvious and less cluttered spot. Which is fine - was just curious if there was a more stylized way of doing it

We would need a log with casts measured where we could see target counts and shit

great, would do it next run i guess

I assume youre playing EC, is beam on CD? are you starfalling basically on CD? Are you hitting Starfire alot?

ancient harbor

but overall, 150ilvl and 27k overall dps is like good, bad, mid ?

If yes to all of those then youre doing fine

Yeah I'm kinda thinking of not logging on again until midnight actually drops 'cause even farming gear seems kinda pointless since once we level it's gonna get replaced anyways

Would you rather struggle killing mobs starting at 81 or 88?

thanks anyway for the "fake" lesson, i guess its like warrior discord here

jaunty blaze

i mean you are asking something the answer to has a million variables

without any data to go off

while the game is not balanced

#

and noone knows what any spec is doing in terms of optimal dps

#

and we dont know what your group did

ancient harbor
#

i don't want the exact number of what the dps are on that ilvl, i wanted to know if 27kish dps is ok or bad or good

jaunty blaze

boomie will also always be on the lower end of damage in lower keys when things die too fast

ancient harbor
#

my concern is, thing wasn't diying fast

glad helm

that was your basic key

the only answer to your question is dont think about it too much

but i'm not asking for minmax T_T

thats a raid

dense steeple
#

Damage isn't real

glad helm
ancient harbor
#

should i ask, how much damage are boomie doing that are actually playing ?

dense steeple
#

Yes its a raid but consider this:

Raid is used more as a measure due to the scripted nature. Less things can just be variably wrong. In a key it will never be the same thing, its always varying

ancient harbor
#

maybe you're right, i'll just go on log and see

dense steeple
#

Please log:) we can check your rotational play with a log and tell you if youre doing well

quiet drift
ancient harbor
#

i won't post it here, i mean, the first thing was "fake" "fake", i throug the discord would be more friendly but i'm wrong

wooden oak
#

thats the wrong mindset to have

#

People are very friendly

quiet drift
#

There is a 150k timed runs this reset, people just arent playing

wooden oak
#

Theyre also just used to seeing posts like yours 50 times a day, etc etc

#

a better word than fake would be… disneyland

#

The balancing right now is not very… real? Good? Etc. but thats because its prepatch

#

So damage numbers alone wont say much of anything

#

If you make a log and post it, it lets people see your rotation, which does matter a lot more

ancient harbor
#

i don't care about the balancing for real, i just want to know, what a balance druid is doing at this moment... maybe my english is to bad to be understand 😢

wooden oak
#

and they can tell you what buttons you need to press more or less

wooden oak
#

If you have issues remembering to log before you go into content, like me, you can download an addon like Loggerhead to automatically do it for you

I promise you friend we are not trying to be unkind or unhelpful.

3 weeks ago, a fully geared m+ boomkin could slam like 100k overall in a key where things live. Since prepatch those same boomkins dont do damage so they dont play. You come in with 30 ilvl below the cap in a low key where things dont live.

What you gave us is not measurable. Its not about us being unfriendly. Its about we need more data.
