Team, how do i sim for M+ on raidbots?
says unsupported/unreliable fight styles when i put dungeon slice or should i just be doing patchwerk+5

royal zenith
#

if you want, yeah

#

you'll never get perfect sims for m+

#

they are just a tool/indication

#

can also just sim ST and swap to aoe talents in m+

digital berry
#

Deux when did you cut off your hair ?

#

Looking good man !

royal zenith
#

uhh a while back already?

#

but ty

digital berry
#

Haven’t noticed till just now with the profile pic

#

Anyone know how often we will get a catalyst charge after we have 4 set completed?

wheat rivet
#

hey yall, i was hoping for a little guidance for the crafted items/embellishments

#

i was gonna craft a 2hander tonight before raid

#

do i embellish that? and a crafted waist later?

#

or waist and boots?

coarse lodge
#

is there a macro that makes Trees spawn on target or is cursor the only option?

# wheat rivet do i embellish that? and a crafted waist later?

Craft staff with darkmoon sigil hunt first. I'm crafting 285 Hands with Arcanoweave next reset since that's the off-piece for tier and I don't really want to send myth crests on low stat budget slots, and gambling RNG for specific myth track gloves isn't worth it

#

@lucid olive thank you so much!!

lucid olive

#

i got all the mats ready for the weapon craft

#

just gonna buy the darkmoon sigil hunt now

tropic prism
#

Is Lunar Eclipse entered through 3 wraths or by pressing the ability as Elune's Chosen. The opener on dreamgrove states something contrary to what i read in the talent tree?

wheat rivet
#

and the best enchant to have is Acuity of the Ren'dorei?

Alright, ty

reef mist
#

Sorry if this was asked already, but this Worldbos trinket sims higher than almost every 266 trinket i can farm in m+ rn... Is this actually right?

lofty depot
#

its a stat stick

#

why would that be weird

reef mist
#

since it doesn't show anywhere and everyone is talking about the other trinket options 😄
But alright, will just trust sims and be happy to have it 🙂

copper gate
#

How decent is this with raid not really being that ST oriented

lofty depot
#

its good

#

ur renown trinket is better until they fix it

#

or until u upgrade it to like 276

molten yoke
#

is keeper better in M+? @lofty depot

#

?

earnest flame
#

I have a bit of a question that I'm not sure the compendium answers or at least I want to ensure im understanding correctly.

In keeper spec.

1 target - use solar eclipse and starsurge
2 - 3 targets - use solar eclipse and starfall
4+ - use lunar eclipse and starfall

#

just trying to make sure im understanding properly :)

stone terrace
#

this feels so wrong

#

does this still apply with aetherial kindling?

lucid olive
#

Yes

#

For the dragon boss and Alleria p2 you Starsurge both and then Starfall a few seconds prior to whenever the adds spawn

#

It's a little cringe but it's optimal to swap what target you Starsurge so that you keep up Stellar Amp on both targets

stone terrace
#

i was just thinking about that. forgot about it before

stone ledge
#

Realistically the damage loss of just starfalling 2t doesn’t seem massive from my raids

#

Prolly just degen optimization stuff

stone terrace
#

yeah i was doing dragons with starfall spam but i def should have talented out of amp

stone ledge
#

Imo play what you feel you do the most damage on til you are used to the fights then you can do weird optimizations unless you are like hof raiding

stone terrace
#

wish i could spam a few kills of dragons on the same diff lol

nova ocean
stone ledge
#

You can. Just in pugs, ngl I take 100% faster starfall and just perma starfall lmao

stone terrace
#

thats good for pad on the orbs but dot extension is chefs kiss

lucid olive
#

I tried orbital strike with meteor storm on dragon boss, was kinda fun but not very good

lofty depot
stone terrace
#

my dmg was good until the tank died and i had to offtank for a moment

otherwise was doing top 5 dmg with things like frost

nova ocean

Ahhh

Ngl I kinda just used the compendium and got like top 500 on my 1st season then @lofty depot log reviewed me a few times in mana forge and im top 100 now

You can probably skip foe and take mushrooms too

#

but i procced some leech shit in m+ and did like 4m healing with it

lucid olive

#

prolly hit a critter maybe

maiden pasture
#

it was happening like

#

once or twice a dungeon in our group

#

a dps would randomly just top hps and it would just be void leech

pseudo merlin

When I desync my treants from eclipse, should I hold treants for eclipse/incarn to come back or just send it without? I'm struggling to decipher from dreamgrove

drifting nova
livid jay
#

Yo gang

lofty depot
#

it shouldnt be dsynced ever and or that much

livid jay
#

What we pumping with in 10s? I'd say keeper weaver feels pretty nice, EC felt ass when I tested it first, shit dies too fast

stone ledge
#

Shit will always die fast in 10’s now and forever if they don’t you need a new group

livid jay
#

You also playing keeper then?

lofty depot
#

idk im slamming keeper

stone ledge
#

I don’t mind ec so I just play it and footpedal starfire and watch Netflix

unkempt ore
# lofty depot how long is that "hold"

variable, i guess im asking what is an acceptable time to hold it for. It happens for example in like p2 of crown where i dont have 2 incarn stacks yet. havent been able to practice it that much

stone ledge
unkempt ore
unkempt ore
#

if it helps this is the time line of incarn/eclipse and fon from crown tonight, i've highlighted spots where they desync, i guess on basically all of them i probably should have held the previous eclipse for longer to sync it rather than potentially needing to delay FoN to line up with the next?

#

The first non-highlighted FoN, lorrgs basically says i should have held incarn for 1 min to line it up too, that one is easier to fix

lofty depot
#

u should never not have trees for incarn

hey all, am I supposed to keep these 3 checked off when I run a sim? I'm not sure I have a full understanding of this trinket. It's currently simming over everything, even the heroic vessel I just looted.

reef ocean
#

do alleria and rift simulac share hp in p2, or is it just 1-way?

celest isle
#

How difficult is balance, my kings and queens?

normal pilot
lucid olive
#

You stack entire raid on the edge of the platform except one tank playing near the middle

#

The bosses jump to the target when tanks taunt swap

#

The only time it doesn't share HP is when the Simulacrum has the shield

#

So you hard swap to it when the shield is up

#

Except for the very last shield of the phase cause at that point it's better to just push Alleria

for m+, during boss fight.. the opener says to use eclipse then use incarn rigth after?

well eclipse then dump starsurgers then incarn

i feel like i'ms pending more tinme out of eclipse

barely any charges of eclipse or incarn left when i get to boss

and for me waste both back to back feels rough and long interim without eclipse

but yea the sim changed back to jsut entering incarn without enter eclipse

#

u can play either way

nimble tangle
#

For M+ boss fights no way you gonna eclipse then CA

#

EC already slow asf

Cuz you gonna waste a lot of ecplise up time though

is there an easy way to do that? i didn't used to have to because my abilities would light up i have a big eclipse icon on my screen using cooldown manager

To at least get some feedback

Other then that; prob some addon blocking shit? Using bartender? Didnt update maybe etc.

if the icon in my bars is supposed to go opaque when i have eclipse active it does not

Do you starfall 2+ targets or 3+ targets with Rattle the Stars EC?

The Compendium says 2+ targets = AoE Prio which only mentions to starfall, but in "Rotational details" it says you fall at 3+ targets (if you don't have starweaver)

Do you guys go KOTG or EC for +10s ? Do they die too fast for EC?

restive garden
#

Hi there! I am running Elune AoE build for m+. Was playing +8s keys yesterday. Playing with mage and unholy. I was struggling with keeping up with DPS. The guides offer different rotations.

  1. Do you always pop Celestial Alignment at the opening?
  2. Do you empty the astral power clip always while in Eclipse / Celestial?
#

Like, every time in Eclipse do you fire instant 3x Star Surge. / empty the clip. then go star fire.

loud narwhal
#

Keeper is better on low keys level, once you hit +11/12 you can play elune but you'll struggle before due to the fact that adds dont have enough hp to bring value

restive garden
#

I was juggeling between Celestial Alignment and Eclipse to have them both on cooldown.

#

Ah, so Keeper is better for now.. ?

loud narwhal
#

Only for low keys

restive garden
#

What is the difference in dps between Elune and Keeper?

loud narwhal
#

EC needs time/stats to perform its a constant dps
Keeper is burst session so its better for packs that dont survive long enough

restive garden
#

Hmm. Will try it tonight.

loud narwhal
#

Once you get to 2P and 11+ you can play EC since stars deal tons of dmg

restive garden
#

What is 2P? 😄

loud narwhal
#

It's your set, when ppl say 2P it stands for 2 parts wich gives you a bonus (40% on falling stars)

restive garden
#

Lol, thanks for the spoon feed.. 😄

loud narwhal
#

Np mate anytime

restive garden
#

Can a keeper balance druid keep up with a frost mage in dps?

#

Afraid that the problem worsens.

loud narwhal
#

You'll still be below but it can compete on bosses

#

But the spec is actually fun to play right now and once you get to play EC it really feals like pressing spells do something 😂

restive garden
#

Are there any in-depth guides around for Keeper?

loud narwhal
#

Maybe on YT but not sure

restive garden
#

Gotcha. In AoE do you always empty the astral clip when in Eclipse or Celestial?

dull dust
#

wowhead or the compendium is most accurate likely

loud narwhal
#

track your dots, presse CA, trees, convoke and spend AP

#

main thing is starlord, you wanna get to 3 stacks asap so eclipse when you have some ap

drifting nova

#

Clip = magasine = The Astral Power 😅

#

restive garden
#

Thanks for the help! will try later on 😄

loud narwhal
#

Sure thing ! let me know

#

Last question for now 😄 Do you always throw either Star Fire or Wrath as first thing after Eclipse? As you get Ascendant Eclipses? Or do you go directly to spend AP?

atomic sequoia
#

spend AP asap

Hey guys, I am checking the opener on Dreamgrove, one thing that confuses me is that it seems to assume we are always talenting into Nature's balance? If we aee not talented into it, we can't starsurge x3 on first solar eclipse, can we?

Hello i was wondering if Boomy atm were "weak" in teamfight since my mate die a lot of time even on barkskin on 7-10 key, he also turn bear to mitigate big damage

#

but he frequently die, or lose too much dps cause he turn bear a lot of time to survive

loud narwhal
#

Use the free instant cast of regrowth as a cd def

royal zenith
#

weaker*

#

I've felt more than comfortable doing 11's, with 'low' ilvl

#

maybe a heal-issue

normal cloud
royal zenith
#

are you the healer @normal cloud

loud narwhal
#

As keeper, when you do 5 starsurge or starfall you get a free regrowth instant

normal cloud
#

Nop i'm the tank

loud narwhal
#

and it gives like 8% DR

royal zenith
#

the free RG is not something to rely on frequently, but you can use it as a defensive ye

normal cloud
royal zenith
#

you also play EC in higher keys

loud narwhal
royal zenith
#

what keylvl are we talking about anyway

normal cloud
#

8-10 atm

royal zenith

those keylevels should only require a bark

as defensive

And I wonder what exactly do they check

they go off vibes

i would say

in heroic

normal logs they wont care about probably

just depends on what grp ur joining

I was wondering because I'm currently staying at ~70

Who check the logs

But your observation isn't rly wrong

ember dock
#

as a noob raid boomie most important things are probably to improve active time and avoid cancelling casts right? I was melee all of WOW and purple hc logs feel just bad...my unc brain is taking long to adapt 😄

lofty depot
#

Ye, abc

#

Always be casting

nova willow
#

Is there any optimization I'm missing for delves? As far as I understand, i just do some 8's until I get a map for a hero item, and then do 11's if I want to farm crests?
Sry if wrong channel

lucid olive
#

that should be correct yeah

lofty depot
#

Farm crests the fuck

lucid olive
#

the 11s for crests is not worth it if you can just do m+ though

nova willow
#

Thank god

lucid olive
#

you should do at least 1 t11 delve to get the cracked keystone quest

#

but thats a 1 time thing per character

nova willow
#

So just the hero item, and we're done. Was afraid there was more to it

ember dock
# lofty depot Always be casting

yeah my positioning is just not on point...and to be fair raid buddies also mess it up when they run into me with mechanics 😄

naive siren
#

if i have a free starfall/starsurge proc but no eclipse/incarn available, do i just wait until i have eclipse or do i send it without eclipse?

lofty depot
lofty depot
lucid olive
#

basically what arctic said

naive siren
#

so when i spam wrath i send it to get amy a new one (cosmos)

lucid olive
#

but if you have a Cosmos proc and you're going to be casting Wrath/Starfire then you should spend it in case you munch a proc

#

if you have a Starweaver proc you can hold it while casting Wrath/Starfire

naive siren
#

ok thanks, sounds very logic now when i read it again ^^

dense steeple
#

So the ABC thing is good, but it especially matters during big movements. If you know a movement is coming, you need to be prepared and not be left high and dry without starsurges ready

lucid olive
#

yeah I think the closest melee spec you get to that is Enhance

naive siren
#

talent meteorites reads pretty good for m+. why is it not taken (often)? is it just bad number wise?

lofty depot
#

It's not an AOE talent

#

And it gets beat out in st

naive siren
#

oooh, it does it only to 1 target?

lofty depot
#

Yes

naive siren
#

just thought a meteorite would hit more targets ^^

lofty depot
#

It says A meteor hits A target silly

#

(tooltips are fake)

round field

starfall hits multiple

naive siren
#

yes, i just asumed from the top of my head

meteors hit multiple

therefore

metors aoe talent

naive siren
#

multiple targets, but always only one at a time? 😉

multiple targets = aoe

(I haven't crafted my myth 2h, didnt upgrade shit, didn't get my heroic items for 4pc)

lucid olive
#

yeha thatll do it

#

why do you need heroic items for 4pc

royal zenith
#

seems more valuable with m+ being farmable

lucid olive
#

just rip any track items to get 4pc and then collect catalyst charges

royal zenith
#

oh you get infinite now?

lucid olive
#

since finishing 4pc makes catalyst charges drop from content

#

there's no information on if it's infinite and the chance gets lower every time you get one or if it's a weekly cap

#

but i've seen people get at least 2 catalyst charges a week

the most common mistakes are related to doing cooldown sequences wrong, not spreading Sunfire/Moonfire quick enough on pull, not planning for movement and CD use and cancelling casts

eager raft

good morning druid family

You’re almost definitely right

lucid olive

#

the waves of suicidal thoughts when the keystone gets put in

lucid olive
#

Improving in all video games is basically the same thing

#

That's why some people get high ranks in most games they play; they innately know the better ways to improve

#

It's all just repetition

#

Put on your favorite anime, ASMR streamer or mukbang content creator on your secondary monitor and watch it while you're hitting target dummies until the rotation becomes muscle memory

molten yoke
#

Can someone check my H boss log and offer any guidance? Been trying to find some help but have been unsuccessful in this discord

lucid olive
#

Then open LFG and just start queueing for normal pugs and try to limit test and greed as much as possible to get used to stuff like "what's the furthest distance I can cover without losing a cast?"

#

You might feel bad about fucking some random LFG pugs over if you're already saved but who cares

molten yoke
proven sail
#

i still feel like im improving, havent played a looong while

lucid olive
#

I always liked the analogy that improving at video games is like getting your drivers license. You need to know how to accelerate, break, shift gears if manual and to check your mirrors before you can safely drive on the road. Same thing with other games; you learn how to play your character before you can learn how to safely operate on the road.

proven sail
#

and what about dots on m+?

#

any way to cast them faster

#

or tap target to a non affected mob?

lucid olive
#

Click nameplates

#

Dot while tank is pulling and not after he has already gathered them

#

Run after your tank, look at what mob he is pulling and then start pressing Moonfire on them as he goes

#

then Sunfire when the pull is stacked

proven sail
#

kk i think the biggest fuck up was moonfire + sunfire while he is pulling

lucid olive
#

67.9% uptime is abysmally low

#

71.3% at the point you died

#

12.8% cancelled casts

#

you let your dots fall off

#

Lost a cast of Incarn

#

You should have used Incarn on your 2nd Force of Nature cast

#

really low uptime during your Incarnation window as well

#

Idk, to me it seems like you have the main idea of your cooldowns figured out, you just need to not second guess yourself between every cast

#

Go hit a training dummy and try to play your rotation while jumping or moving in a circle around the dummy

#

Good way to get used to handling movement

#

You could also just be moving too much as well, playing a caster in general is about positioning. Knowing where you can stand to be in a better position for upcoming mechanics while also not dropping shit on the floor in a bad position, like debuff circles on Salhadaar

#

This is your Vorasius

#

this is mine

#

~713 yards still a lot to move and I could have played that better

i'm asking about adds that spawn and die quickly, is it worth using GCDs on DoTs, or should I skip them if they die in under ~10 seconds?

lucid olive
#

Oh like that

#

honestly just vibe it out

#

For 10 seconds its definitely worth dotting

#

5-6 seconds as well probably

#

Also depends on how many adds there are and if they are stacked

#

If there's like 6 mobs all stacked that will die in under 5 seconds it's still worth to Sunfire them since that's 1 global applying the DoT to everyone

#

with Moonfire it gets more dodgy

hasty phoenix
#

look this compare, my moonfire on adds :

#

another player

#

so i'm doing this wrong. he just do st and do 100k dps

#

The adds die so fast that I don’t really need to spend GCDs applying DoTs. Looking at the logs, the difference is huge. I used to think it was always worth using DoTs, no matter what.

lucid olive
analog moat

I know that’s what I’m saying.

#

To be clear the dh is the tank. The flex dps is usually 100k+

lucid olive
#

Follow your tank between pulls, go cat form or whatever to keep up with him

#

Look at the tanks character as he throws a spell to a mob to pull it

#

Moonfire that mob

#

And then you just Moonfire each mob as the tank pulls them

#

If you get aggro on the mob then use Wild Charge to reposition yourself so the mob has to walk through the tank

livid jay
#

so are we still eclipsing during opener on single target or nah?

lucid olive
#

And when all the mobs are gathered you Sunfire since they're stacked at that point

#

and then do your dam

#

After the Mastery change its probably not as important to DoT shitter mobs

analog moat
#

I’ll try being better with dots and see tonight.

lucid olive
#

Get a nameplate profile that has different color nameplates based on what the mob is - caster mobs and higher priority elite mobs usually have different colors and that way you know which are the important mobs

analog moat
#

Yeah I need to do that. I’m using default.

plucky valley
#

Worth noting that efficient dotting = using the least amount of globals to dot everything that’s worth dotting. Especially for sunfire, when in a perfect scenario you don’t have to cast sun fire more than once or twice

royal zenith
#

yeah just wait till tomorrow for the perfect scenario

Hey fellow druids. Long time player that took a long break and I'm kind of lost at what I'm doing wrong with my DPS.

I've read through the resources, I've done Sims for my gear, I've read through rotations, but when I go to put it all together to work in actual m+/raids, I feel mediocre. I almost feel like it's not clicking for me. I've tried to find videos (cause sometimes seeing is better than reading), but no luck. Anyone out there that's willing to share some tips/help keep my raiding spot?
