Depends on fight specific stuff and if you're using cooldowns right after etc but generally yeah
But you don't want to overcap the Eclipse cd either
Gotchya, anytime i have an eclipe or incarn available as the one i am on i try to pull to re enter right away. If i don't have something available i will try and dump asp.
Is that generally the correct mindset not assuming you are trying to hold for a damage amp or an intermissions or whatnot.
Sure yeah
you try to pair eclipse with either trees or FoE right?
Yea, if i have foe coming up i will keep hold on eclipse and try to pool even more ( itry going into a foe/elcipse combo with 100+ asp). No idea if that is correct though.
boomies should have double charge of wild charge cause they have wings
just saying
well opposite way
u pair trees with eclipse or ca
ah, okay so i should look at trees as a kinda anchor cd (idk if im using that word right)
I believe FOE is your main CD and you want to make sure you have an incarn or eclipse to send with it right away
kidna... u trees kinda on cd
theres a lot of places where u can hold on these bosses tho
i can never decide if i should hold on the last boss of p1 H crown
sometimes the timings workout but i dont notice any consistency
getting put in the first group 
being put in first group feels preferred
really? i send cds and it feels like a decent portion of lust + pot gets taken up by swapping
but i have nothing confirming that and ive only done heroic
We are holding lust to p3
Crown
o
hey guys, i am pretty new to balance, first season ever maining it and was wondering a few things. in M+ would KOG be better if the group isnt pulling massive, and should i use starfall for 6+ mobs?
no such thing as padding
all enemies must die I will not let them harm my friends
well i dont send cds on pull

if u go down on first group, u dont send cds on pull
ya that seems like a choice
What do you mean group 1 on Crown?
u starfall at 3
they are nott talking about crown lol
im talking about chimaerus
keeper and ec probably good on either :/
Gothcya i am dumb
speaking of which i need to tech some shit out with grieftorch
this thing is gonna bang on chimaerus surely
wrong log off
are u prefer starweaver in raid?
do you send after downstairs then?
why would u send after downstairs
lmfao
IM TRYING TO DO MASSIVE DAMAGE
im new to the spec man give me a break
do u want to do damage or not
im not talking to you there
oh
woof
we did first 3

then went chimaerus
I hope I skip salad
like 8 pulls
I do not want that loot in my vault
arctic are ur logs private
no
i wants check
gaze slams
sim fixed
but im never getting it
so need in vault
no I have doggo loot in my vault
o
I don't want salad loot
actually salad would be 2nd choice
someone do the math
extra loot table vs 2 choices
266 charm v 263 gaze
lol
gaze is better
renown trinket better than both at 263

oh simming
ribbon .9 gaze .4 
would stare change it 
hm mine was just drop ilvl
so im just fucked
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/58vKuiNWKWSwVuh5MFESJ5
Am I simming wrong
probably
the champ one for me was like 2.3
The pin says Vaelgor, Locus Walker and Gaze are the best trinkets. The new highspeed LiquidArmory says Valegor, Soulcatcher and Emberwing. Any one know who is lying?
weaver convoke login
do u not have the buffs
ur also simming this
fix it
weave convoke good
peoepl were slammming on vor
yuck
yea get mad

i did 38 keys and need 2 items now
neck and boots
but next week i get pvp neck
so why bother
I did 15-20 times nexus but i didnt loot void ring..
ive done....
21
but i was slammign with 2-3 other people and we could trade
i had the void one and the others had light/void
and we just kept trading

and it was easy
it's friday wheres ur ilvl
bro i got hard shafted
i was just saying "4p will blast"
ya welcome to lfg, they suck and they assume you do too
0 tier
bear kinda a vibe if you have dps with hands
@dull dust found a group that might take you

Toxic

Hey, seeing surge on two targets, for a boss like dragons am I just slamming surges into the one dragon or am I trying to maintain uptime of stellar amp on both dragons? Or whatever the one that increases dot dam on surge targets
And would that apply to P2 alleria as well?
surge swap target on either
during the 2t yes
Sweet thanks
seems like the top 2 boomkins are using starweaver in m+ , v interesting!
as ec?
yes\
at least the 2 highest keys timed by a balance druid
they are both also using Orbit Breaker over Sundered Firmament
talents in case someone is curious CYGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWoMbNjxMDwsMzMzMLMMMLzsMziZmZ2YZmlxMDWwwAMW2mZwY2GAzAAAAYhZmZGsZYMGAAmZgHA
this might be a dumb question, but i was given the bracers from mythic vorasius - do i send myth crests and max them even though they're a low budget slot? i'm crafting gloves probably next week so 80 crests are spoken for but yeah
alright that was my inclination but i wasn't sure. tytyty
Hey on gemellus in Magisters Terrance, should I be dotting and starfalling? or focus starsurge on one, just maintain dots
What the boomkins should craft first with the sparks ?? Weapon or gloves ?
can starfall
ty birddad
@delicate perch rank 4 in highest amount of keys done in the guild, rank 22 out of 27 for ilvl. and the tank has 2 toons and both are higher ilvl
Dont understand why ?
Oh ok thx artic !
Is that only once you get tier?
np
Made it to 269 ilvl still need a couple heroic pieces
I feel like I did more damage just no brain star falling since I don't have tier yet
Saw top parse just spamming starfall so I thought I'd try it
Lol
is that not a glyph
This has probably been asked before so I apologies, but is there a way to track this?
debuffs are tracked
u cant filter ti tho
giga cringe
Boosted a Druid to try it for the first time and holy moly knowing what goes in what form etc is overwhelming
you ll only need a monkin and a bear 
realistically you only need the other forms for 1 or 2 buttons
and many abilities automatically shift you into them
u cant track in cdm
but u can track on boss frame
granted u ahve like 6 debbuffs
yes thats what i did on dragon boss
so normally theyre like 20 ilvls or w.e. off of max
theyre like 14 off
insane gearing more like
Which stats you guys Go for ? My sim say Go more crit then I go for more crit I do less dmg then hast mastery
why do u think u do less damage if u go more crit
I do that was the sim say and my dmg is lower
when liquid killed ansurek they were 14 ilvls below
400 pulls
blizz knows they have heroic week
they did a shit job no question
theyre gonna be like 7 ilvls off when theyh kill midnight falls kek
why r u playing worse
they're also 19 ilvls off right now not 14
they will not gain 12 ilvls next week
stop disinfo my dood
many of them are 272
what is this new slur i am unaware
new member
sorry harrison
im here with a vault question and feel free to yell at me
I have 1. Tier piece (shoulders) 1 catalyst charge and hopefully a second one this weekend... I cleared lfr, normal and heroic (not crown)
Do I try to gaslight my lootmaster for token from crown on sunday so I can get vaelgor's or just get a tier now and be done with it #
I assume by token u mean the curios which normally drop of last bosses
yeah
isnt that kinda wild
everyone basicly will just have tier before thats even out anyway

guys
....
๐ฅ
Didnโt watch clip but let me guess you wild charged and thought you were safe and instead got yeeted into the abyss
no way you didn't know that
how would i know that
yea turning cam doesnt turn char even on way down there ๐
just not how the game works u would notice first time u charge with turned camera
anyone have gamz CDM ?
nah i just want the cdm
ty babe
mots get this fiend out of here
wtfffff
I'm going to be rich
How do people do personal shit now without WA. I wanna track Solstice but its not in cooldown manager
Cause its important and i wanna see it
I want to make sure its in my life
this is why pruning and deleting addons is a good thing
meanwhile people ignore the debuffs that matter..
is it tho
dont u need like
35 addons now
to do the same things you could with like 3
Oh we had pruning ? Didn't they give us another button as a way of pruning ?
not really
for actual raid-stuff you don't need a lot
big wigs alone is enough
but isnt cdm dog
Just need DBM that bugs one boss out of two with 0 alerts and shit xD
I really have to try Big Wigs
Is there no way to have free reign on what buff or debuff i want to track?
guys whats your overall on a nexus point for example? xD
you can track/do what blizzard allows you to track/do
I'm always second/third in damage ๐ข on my 10-12s
define dog
well indeed forgot that i can also check dungeons there LOL
it's mostly visually not something people prefer
its way easier
people in here tend to romanticize their damage or overall
140k
especially if more geared than average
Guys i have a question, i used to play wow back in the days, i just returend. But somehow my macro to cancel starlord doesn't work anymore. Any tips?
(cause ego)
you cant cancel starlord anymore
๐
yeah, balance is not that great
I do think 4pc matters a lot for overall
Nahhh now i have to wait till its over to spend astral on right timing..
no
so you do have to compare the same type of bamkin
I do have 4pc already
Ecplise auto? ๐ฎ
and i can do that overall aswell
yes read the talent
but you'll have people believe it's good cause they get pi like @round field
there you go
point proven
this u > 
lol actually im rank 96 on warcraft logs ahah
wrong
the average balance player is dogshit at the game
even the above average ones
that's a different discussion
ah this is key level rank ok
nope
So i really cant track Solstice (The actual buff and not the passive) cause blizz said nuh
blegh
its just being held back by skill issue
there is literally not point in tracking it
I only got one no and it was from you, and thanks.
I was just complaining now
๐
I dont get the eyes, i meant that sincerely, thanks for replying ๐
nah I mean more like
thanks deux
why does it bother you so much
what decision making do you do based off of solstice
Cause i havent played since Novemeber and i spent the first month of the game making gold and now that ive been thrust into Mythic i dont have the muscle memory for the spec ๐
I dont want to overwrite eclipse with CA before Solstice is over, figured its easier if i can just look at a buff for now
Hey guys, I can't figure out how to do the opener when Nature's Balance is not talented. Do we keep spamming Wrath and delay the first Eclipse until we have enough to use 3xStarsurge or we just send it after 3 Wraths anyways?
smh
before you decide to do this, I would actually like sim if it makes any difference
if it's net-neutral you're overcomplicating your gameplay
@dull dust time to get to work!!
"During the first 6 sec of every Eclipse, Shooting Stars fall 200% more often."
so only overwrite it after 6 seconds!


poor chancel
To be fair, Ive just assumed that min/maxing uptime on Solstice is important
but this is just wrong
you dont play around solstice at all
just ignore it
ya I get it, hence my question
but if it's just a habit, like cancelling starlord
kinda have to know if it's actually a gain else what's the point
even a dps loss...
you've been gimping yourself hearts... cause of assumptions and habits.....
tbf its probably just causing timing issues
Still, thanks ๐
I wouldnt have done it, been too long since i played with the sims
I "almost" gimped myself. ๐
it's good for discussion anyway
maybe lurkers also learn a thing or two
who knows
would also
not be the first time someone suggested something that sounded stupid and was a gain
happens sometimes

Still impossible to do Nullaeus in boomkin, and killed in tree healing for the first time from 3rd pull
Wtf
Even without damaging in cat, just spamming HoTs
Blizzard tuning
someone got a clean arcui setup for boomie?
did u try it with tank as boomie?
found it pretty simple when i put the companion on heal with the emergency shield skill
guys if I go into eclipse after pressing elune, does elune still get the 15% arcane buff from eclipse?
does nightmare prey itself give heroic gear or does it give the item that lets you get a map in delve that is heroic itself
you cannot do it if i got you right
you meant fury of elune?
it doesnt snapshot i think
I think what he means is "does Elune still take 15% buff if casted before eclipse? Elune > eclipse"
But solstice is in the CDM unless they removed it.
Also you get +3s with every free spender. Not sure if you or chancel even considered that
Yes
No snapshotting on foe
That is the reason, i dont know if its optimal but im running all the talents that gives instant starsurge/starfall purely cause its fun
BCM at least tracks the passive talent, not the active buff
They're the same buff
What's the passive vs active?
It's also no point in tracking it
how do i move gamz his cdm?
spellID is not the same
How about you try it?
Edit mode
But i did just try it lol and tracks it
ty
anyway, moot point ๐
If I am not wrong nothing snapshot anymore, right?
Hail of Stars isn't a buff
moonkin doesnt have snapshotting
I assume that's the other spellid you're looking at
only feral does
Only if specifically stated by a mechanic
The spellID of the one listed in CDM is the talent, the actual buff yo get was another but the CDM tracks the buff you get. Hail of Stars just extends Solstice so thats the same
It was removed after MoP. Haven't played feral, so I assume it is staded
Spells can have more than one spellid flagged
CDM /BCM is showing me the wrong spellID but its tracking the correct one
M+ question:
Should I try to have maximum uptime on my Eclipse which results in holding 1 charge of my Incarn until I spend my Lunar Eclipse CD just so I don't overcap on Lunar Eclipse
Feral bleeds change icon when they can snapshot (it's really annoying)
If your incarn charges aren't capped you're not wasting anything
ahah ok i was checking a log for vaelgor
and literally everyone was 100 parse
on ilvl and general
then i noticed its mythic
do u guys do any stellar amplification managing?
On 2 targets yes
urgh
seems like a nightmare xD
so on dragons you keep starsurging different targets?
Yeah just swap target every time
can always bind focus surge and focus the other drag
frost mage style
i did it now , kinda weird
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/1mJPn7FcDBv8L9kG?fight=last&type=damage-done idk 58 ilvl it was still very messy and weird to track, kinda did it randomly
@lucid olive Hey Gamz i downloaded your UI pack and it's great but the action bars do not show CD unless i mouse over the actual button, any idea why that is?
Im not gonna lie iv no idea what im doing, just copy and paste builds till it reigns supreme ๐คฃ
Hey guys, I can't figure out how to do the opener when Nature's Balance is not talented. Do we keep spamming Wrath and delay the first Eclipse until we have enough to use 3xStarsurge or we just send it after 3 Wraths anyways?
disgusting amount of padding king keep it up
I'm not sure it was simmed recently, but I'm pretty sure you just send eclipse
ahaha pug life
It also probably depends on whether you have touch of cosmos talented
i mean you are between both dragons so you kind of have your back to one of them
Mmm missing an ElvUI update if I were to guess
with m+ ec build, there's only lunar eclipse. When am I supposed to use wrath? never?
if I am out of eclipses and there's 1 target, do I just wrath only then?
never
I am also having hard time finding the exact talent that makes eclipse blue only, which one is it?
Lunar calling

oh oky thanks โค๏ธ
Do you have like a clipboard for these or do you copypaste them every time
I have a server with them as emotes
be elune's chosen
Crescent Burn 
Mass converted .tga files from the acidweb high-res icon pack into .PNG and uploaded them as emotes
Yeah I just keep the actual icon name for most of them
Yeah I know just funny
Funny how Blizzard misspelled it tho 
Oh wait 
it's elune

under a blanket trying to find her way out
The BOAT icon is also a face
The Flourish icon is a gnome
Fucking wowhead preventing me from copypasting the icons on phone
Muh intellectual property
Get lost
did you do that yourself or with some kind of llm?
Myself
I don't use LLM's or AI outside of "hey show me how to solve this math problem"
And then watch the AI get it wrong
they can code bretty good though if it's not high-end stuff you are missing out
I'm not a programmer so I don't give a shit
Let them code for you but dry out 3 rivers and 5 lakes in the process
Fuck outta here

Not going into this today, need to move boxes
Just have a robot do it since you love them so much

bro stopped reading after first sentence
wtf green name being rude?
Not really
I guess taking that as rude is a self report..
No wait you were right
The short answer: it synergizes extremely well with the new Eclipse rework and Ascendant Eclipses apex talents.
In Midnight, Astral Communion was redesigned โ it now increases your maximum Astral Power by 20, and entering an Eclipse causes your next Starsurge or Starfall to cost 15 less Astral Power.
This matters because of two things stacking together:
Eclipse is now an active button โ it changed from a passive buff triggered by your last 2 builders to a button you press, based on your previously cast builder. You're entering Eclipse deliberately and frequently.
Ascendant Eclipses rewards immediate spending โ activating an Eclipse makes your next Wrath or Starfire instant, and the first three spenders you cast during each Eclipse deal 20% increased damage. So you want to fire off spenders ASAP after entering Eclipse.
Astral Communion greases that wheel: the 15 AP discount on your first spender means you can get to your buffed Starsurge/Starfall sooner after entering Eclipse, and the +20 max AP ceiling helps you pool more aggressively before pressing Eclipse so you can dump multiple buffed spenders in sequence.
Yeah see
Just have the robot make some shit up
It's just as accurate or wrong as someone else would make up
When the answer is that players just play whatever talents they vibe with
Specifically the last like 3-4 points spent are on talents that equate to around 1% and your choice is just which dogshit to step in
UE, Goldrinn, FoE, Meteorites, Communion.. all the same
AWOO
well well well..
in 7.5 min encounter this "set bonus" done 182k for me
definitely worth it
really? how much dps does 75 mastery net you?
idk
but does it tell for a twilight barrage proc
Good ring combo
But depends on your other stats whether it's better than other stuff
when crafting staff, should I be using crit/mastery missive?
Sure
why not haste/mastery
Could anyone have a look and tell me if there are any obvious mistakes during this key?
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/GvRtTjk2Kp6ZAVPL?fight=last&type=summary
0 tiers, also champion weapon, but I could have done better I think
either im blind or the first time you ever use eclipse is over 2 minutes into the key
this is a read guide angle
Looks like you are blasting eclipses back to back sometimes and not building ASP going into them
it doesnt matter
you can make up the difference with different gems or enchants
crit and haste are also about equal value
oh i see, ty
how much dps gain 4 set is?
also my trinkets poo i guess
It's a good %. But still, it means you're almost definitely spending outside incarn or eclipse which is gonna hurt more overall
gear is the least of your problems
follow guides
do i wanna pool before popping eclipse and spend inside eclipse?
yes
Can anyone tell me what to improve?
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/character/eu/twisting-nether/futsz
posture
You never use a pot that I could find. Which means you probably also don't have enchants on gear. And maybe don't have a flask
That's all free damage being left on the table
you can 95 parse heroic without consumables idk how thats relevant
Is he doing that?
This is a waste, you should have either entered Eclipse and played out the entire 15 second duration before using Treants -> Incarn, or you should have used Treants->Incarn at the 0:50 mark when it comes up.
You can technically skip the Moonfire in opener now since it's not part of Mastery anymore, but it doesn't matter much. Your opener is also kinda slow.
Your active time and cancelled casts are really bad
Almost 20% of the casts you start are cancelled
No, but blanket telling someone to use consumables when they ask how they can improve on the spec is like telling a student driver to use the steering wheel
You wasted a noticeable amount of Astral Power
Your Eclipse uptime could be better (could be around 75% probably) and you let your Sunfire fall off the boss
Heard
if they didnt know to use the steering wheel thats good advice though
it was also completely made up
he saw him not using potion and then assumed
then its not a car..
unless..

if we get the 4piece tier ist a 11% damage gain?
Not sure how to phrase this but, is it **really **worth to go thru all this, instead of 2-3x wrath, dots and then treants/foe/incarn on pull ? or we're talking about a minor dps increase ?
you can do what you want tbh
i been meaning to change it
I don't see many people doing this first part ever (at least in hc)
its better with Incarn to enter Eclipse first
but you could just go Eclipse -> Treants -> Incarn without the spending in between
it all just depends on fight timer
what's the dps increase anyway if you do that gamz
edit : let me check some stuff before i say random shit
on internet, of all places !
the thing I don't understand is that we enter eclipse with incarn anyway, so why do we want to enter our "normal" eclipse first?
to get the ability on cooldown
any time spent with Eclipse at 2 charges is essentially wasting uptime
alright, I'll try and see if it changes somethign ๐
I feel like on fights with AOE it's worth to be in eclipse first, get some Starfalls falling and then carry them over into the incarn
but are you entering incarn with like 0 AP then or
Thank you, I just started playing so I'm currently still learning openers and how to use cd's
Nah it's a gamble if u get weaver procs otherwise your hard casting 2-3 times before incarn and the benefit is gone
Wdym, the Starfalls will be doing more damage once you enter eclipse? If it snapshotted it would be bad no?
I think with Incarn and without Natures Balance you probably go Eclipse -> Wrath x3 -> Treants -> Incarn

what's your definition of 'carry over'
do u guys find that ur sometimes just hard casting starfire in keys with no eclipse or incarn available? am i doing something wrong?
it's a slow cast, that's correct
So I should always pair incarn with treants
Not treants with eclipse
if i build AP first the packs are 50% hp and my eclipse is wasted
Press starfall (free maybe from weaver), get AP back, press incarn -> starfall up with a couple seconds of it left and incarn up too
if i dont do it i run out of eclipse/incarn sometimes
so not sure what is the right move
Well if you're talking m+ it's doomed anyways atm just blast asap
and why not just cast wrath's, generate asp and cast starfalls
what's the difference for you
if damage is dynamic
i really fucking hate the new eclipse tbh like i see 0 positive sides to it
I don't think it's possible to have 100% eclipse uptime on the whole key, and it's better to be casting starfire (or dots) outside of eclipse than any spender
no like im so out of eclipse and incarn cds that i even overcap on ap and starfall with no eclipse/incarn
for some keys
not all
well, apex talents are linked to it
that's the benefit I guess
gameplay wise it's pretty shit ye
In once case u go into incarn with full AP and no Starfalls falling, in the other case u got Starfalls up and go into incarn with full AP as well and eclipse on CD and that Starfall is buffed from the eclipses first 3 spenders big effect aswell
could just grant us the same buffs from entering eclipse via the old 2 cast system
the fact that it's on a gcd is also frustrating
based and true
feels like the worst button to press in the whole kit
didn't you say it's based off of procs aka rng
anyway, can just sim it
and you'll know
feel like people are grasping for some sort of minmax for whatever reason
but it doesn't really impact anything?
yea its a gamba sometimes it feels great sometimes its shit
gamba :S
just vibe it out
real
it's useful on crown though
like i just watched a vod of mine and i did something different aswell there ๐
gives you time to wait for adds to get debuff from droplets
sotf is in such a unfortunate spot i feel like
and it dosnt give you AP outside of eclipse
https://www.twitch.tv/mahranaka/clip/PowerfulCrazyPoxDatBoi-I7gZwSJRRVFxO4o_
see here my ap is almost full the second i press incarn, if i had spent the touch proc on a starfall instead of a surge it would have carried into eclipse ๐
Oh, that could be a thing. Eclipse first global of combat. Will try later
I don't think 1 starfall does a whole lot of damage
yea but 40% chance it gives u another surge for free ๐
pretty sure you need like 5/6 starfalls to even get the same value as 1 starfall back in the Stellar Drift times
yeah but same goes for starsurge
ya
the value/worth of dps per gcd kinda matters
especially if you need 8 gcd's before you pop actual cd's
but eh, like oi said
just vibe
very situational anyway
its funny to me that almost all top logs on dragons choose to manually redot all the time for more pad on the adds xD
can it be? starfall ticking faster doesnt change how much damage it does right
No but you get the dmg in faster which matter if the mob lives 5 secs
yea exactly so its just for pad
"Pad" but ye if thats the only way to get dmg on them that is what you do
I honestly just don't think balance is good for anything else atm
so just press starfall
who
one of the big bois
(was not a real question)
did clecia cook a custom apl again
church of clecia is back??
Umbral Embrace has same issue
Does piss dmg and only consumed in Eclipse
SOTF could be made better by removing the Eclipse part as well for sure
Especially with Starweaver you don't really cast many fillers in Eclipse

these bosses are pad fiesta

yea
was gonna drop my puddle ethically on saladsbar
watching streamers contemplate if they can pad on these mobs with their shrooms without griefing the raid is peak
same exact thing happened to me
I was like "how fucking long is this debuff, drop the shit already..."

Lmao we were 3 ranged trying this on first heroic kill
that's actually pathetic af
!!
Then we walked after the boss and dropped in the middle 
3 bone headed ranged players in a line
using manual shroom...
everyone padded so much on first boss
we failed to killed the add before he transformed
you know what would save bamkin

actual funnel
Were you bottom dps on the first boss like me tho
fml

Which talent builds are people using for m+ (higher than +10s)
I'm currently using the Elune Chosen from Dreamgrove
wait feral bottom dps??
no i was 2nd or 3rd
savage..
after hunter
my spec is cooked....
it's more painful
to actually ask "why am I perma-silenced"
my cope is im like 8 ilvls below everyone else atm xd
I use frozen orb on my mage right before the silence lady went aura mode
i mean i was defo out of the circle in the end
you're running around with starfall up...
do i need to read the mechanic
(does that actually proc silence?)
or dots
recruitie will know
kinda tempted to level/gear a mage
Frost mage is very boring
A few lol
i think it was the fury of elune
Boomy ain't much better
does anyone else have issues deselecting their target?
on boomie i at least have to think about usage of 3 cds
on frost mage u send everything all the time and spam icelance
Anyone a boomy log master down to help a new boomy
"boomy" and "thinking" have never been used in the same sentence before
Both are easy
just send em someone will look
probably not a master tho
Most fights you just rip double CA early and then sync with convoke after
Not back to back, but 2 before 2nd convoke
Only one you need to prep for is dragons adds
Frost might be easier, but both are relatively piss easy

chimaerus add spawns, vanguard boss stacks / no dr'd bosses, vorasius adds if u wanna pad,...
but yea
it aint that hard
but i dont know any hard specs tbh
I mean all classes, including frost, needs to be conscientious about add spawns
Not just limited to boomy
How big of a deal is 4 piece this season? I have yet to see a tier piece through LFR, normal and heroic both weeks..... I feel like when I compare other ilvls I'm underperforming.
yea 4 piece is pretty massive
sim it on your toon
I think they have one of the biggest 0 to 4 set gains
That would have been the smart place to start.
Hi
Hi
If someone is interested in helping ping me please
i said send your log
I need to copy someoneโs bars the forms and abilities is overwhelming as a new Druid lolol
Just use single button assist ๐
nah dont ๐
Ok
learn the spec properly
Just kidding lol
have u played other specs?
well surely u have a preference for like your big spenders, your filler, your cooldowns etc
Yeah
i just have the forms on f1 to f5 but thats not that optimal i guess
remember that your shapeshifting changes your bar aswell
so its actually not that deep
just put moonkin form on the same keybind in every off-spec-form
not for me cause i cba with that
fresh new boomkin here , do we ever press wrath in our mplus build ? dont see it mentioned in the guides
(don't think he's playing kotg)
well
still xD
thats crazy actually
if i griefed and have no eclipse for 15 seconds but theres 10 mobs surely i starfire
Maybe I made it up, but on pull are you meant to enter a solar eclipse -> spend your instant wrath/starfire + ascendant skies procs, then pop cds (trees/foe/incarn etc)?
The compendium has a note that you use trees if "incarn is available, and you do not have an active solar eclipse"
this is for just standard ST
i thought i saw somewhere you wanna enter solar eclipse first on pulls, spend the buffs and stuff, then enter incarn (to get solar eclipse cd rolling since sitting on 2 charges is not good)
theres an opener section on dreamgrove
ah okay so i did not make it up
am i just reading the prio wrong
or doesn't apply for opener specific scenario
nono, priolist is for mid rotation, the opener is special on top so to say
but theres some discussions on whether u actually have to do the eclipse before incarn stuff in your opener
so just do whatever feels better i guess
atm im doing it boss per boss basis (if i need the extra timing) but yeh okay sounds good
like fallen king mythic i think it's better to incarn asap personally...
yea thats what u should do, it really depends on the situation
Openers usually end with "continue with regular rotation"
Any one know if there is any timeline on updating the boomkin api to bloodmallet
how good is PI with keeper of the grove?
Has anyone got a macro for Vaelgor and Incarn i can quickly snipe
#showtooltip
/use 13
/use 14
/cast [@cursor] Celestial Alignment
Thanks!
swap use 13 or use 14 depending on what slot your trinket is in
and if you equip all your on-use trinkets in the same slot in the future you will never have to swap out the macro ๐
yeah I would have written out the entire incarn ability when making it
how come it works with CA ?
they are the same spell
and you add the [@cursor] in case you ever talent into Orbital Strike
since that has a targeting reticle that is very annoying
One day they will make it useful and rename it Syzygy again
but you also need to remember to actually aim Orbital Strike if you ever talent it...
do you not remember when they decoupled orbital from CA in amirdrassil
and then reverted the change a week after cause PvPers complained
Yeah, i 'member
Thanks so much @lucid olive ๐ works great
Can't believe the 3 players total got it reverted
yeah crazy
if orbital strike was in choice node with mushrooms we would never have gotten sunseeker...
and maybe the Undermine jackpot tier set would launch an Orbital Strike when you use CA and make spenders do more dam to Stellar Flare targets...
what couldve been 
What if they just added a small selection of special talents you could grab specifically for pvp?
That would be neat
idea accepted
orbital strike is now exclusively a pvp talent
monkey paw curls
what do you need to know
it is
I have 2 set and 2 charges currently
I am struggling to decide if I send these 2 charges on champ track items(i have had zero luck getting any loot from M+/raid)
I know you get the unbound thing after getting 4-set, but is there also a season maximum of charges that would make not upgrading Champ track pieces a bad idea?
Unsure if there's a max cap
I still dont believe that
you should send for 4set instantly tho
okay too bad
knew there was something wrong when I was getting pi every time

what am I gonna do with it? regrowth faster?
idk my overall was balls yday getting beat by a friend that swapped chars and got 4p on his mage before me
arcane smh
but above all else, fuck algathar

unless you want to spam 8s for hero pieces this week then no not really
I have seen poeple that have got 4 cata charges in a week after getting their 4set
so its definitely worth to send it asap
same, they can drop fast
the 4set is also very powerful
me, still on 1p, the worst piece, the hands

I aint found shit
hm is 2p worth getting
you can get guaranteed 2pc if you get KSM..
KSM takes 4 hours bud
wait not toorrow, sunday
atp I only do dungs with friends or they wont play
I know they wont
sucks we're triple dps 
Im playing EC in M+ atm, if im getting it right I should dot the mobs, then press fury of elune with CA, after that go in eclipse? Donโt wanna press fury of elune while in eclipse r?Always sync it with CA?
Im strugling with overall dmg on 10s with 4pc and want to find what Im doing wrong 
Fury is before you hit cds
moonfire mobs when they are getting grouped
sunfire them grouped
fury then hit ca/eclipse and spam starfall/starfire
you press fury on CD too
Hi Guys - would like some guidance on a 'cookie cutter' build for EC in M+. Each build I've read up on within the compendium, wowhead and icy veins is different. Noticed some builds are taking shrooms some aren't. What y'all running with?
If you want cookie cutter then grab any EC build
The deviations in the build between guides are not that relevant
They all take the core talents to make the build work
The other stuff are just 1% swings back and forth and don't really matter
Alrighty, thanks for the info - not been playing much since expac launch so didn't know how much of a difference shrooms would be making across M+
Core talents for EC in m+ is Aetherial Kindling, Fury of Elune, Radiant Moonlight, Sundered Firmament/Orbit Breaker and Incarn
the difference in those talents mushrooms fights with isnt as big as u think
the rest are kinda whatever
Has been the same since the new talent pages came in Dragonflight
You have a handful of "build defining talents" that matter
and then the rest are low value swings either direction and don't matter that much
I didn't play much in DF so was just looking for some info and you guys have provided that, thanks. I appreciate it
Build defining talents are like Whirling Stars/Orbital Strike, Rattle/Starweaver, Convoke/Incarn, FoE/Full Moon
ok gotcha, just stick to the rule that fury always before entering eclipse when CA is on cd r?
Just FoE off cd
soon as its up you press button
in a key like Algethar maybe you want to use it before spreading dots as well
depends how efficient you are at dotting though
yeah and the fury before was really just a thing of like first pull maybe or if you are going into a boss fight
value of dots on big AoE packs is less than previous 2 expansions and casting Moonfire while FoE is available loses Lunation value
in packs that keep going you dont care when just keep it on cd
I have just been letting the vibe decide when I stop dotting
and the vibe usually decides it when the mobs are stacked
foe isnt for the damage its for the astral power gen and the dmg amp it gives your other spells
hence use it on cd
god i remember that one beta cycle when it was like old breath on sindy
big laser beam gameplay
aye it depends on the tank tho from pov, how much they chain pulling
does anyone know a video guide that outlines what you need to do to become better at playing caster in wow? Not specifically boomkin but more like any ABC uptime caster
something i can link this person
not really but i've been wanting to make one
maybe during the summer when i don't have studies
cant really find anything that just covers the basic things and not goes into minmaxing
but also like how hard is the advice here
yea
"just cast more"
i typed some paragraphs saying ABC blabla
like i don't even know what you would put in a video guide except for maybe "save instant casts for when you have to move and plan ahead"
think i would just try to put it as plainly as possible
without using terms and definitions of stuff
