#

that's a burst aoe talent, which is useless in high keys when mobs live for the full duration of starfall anyways.

jovial grotto
#

where can u read this?

lucid olive
#

theyre making meteorites a 2 target talent instead of a 1 target talent

#

and then nerfing the damage

jovial grotto
#

cant find it on wowhead

lucid olive
#

and the reason they stated is that they changed it because its easier than fixing the tooltip

jovial grotto
#

do u have link to the article?

obsidian jetty

ah ty

Hi guys, I remember there used to be a way to put a buff or debuff in the center of the screen to remind you if it's active or not, I want to put one for "Starlord" buff to know if it's fully charged or not, anyone knows how?

delicate perch
#

with cooldown manager or a various addon giving extra features to that

obsidian fox
drifting nova
#

addons were banned in the great purge

obsidian fox
lucid olive
#

theres several addons that interact with the CDM

#

but they are all built around the default in-game one

#

they just let you customize it

obsidian fox
lucid olive
#

any of them

proper mica
#

do the eyes of the eagle enchant work? they say they are best for me but i put them on and had no stat change

lucid olive
#

the enchant doesnt give stats that are on the stat panel

obsidian fox
lucid olive
#

wago

#

tons of profiles and imports from different addons

proper mica
#

oooh ty

lucid olive
#

several good free ui packs as well on there

craggy sonnet
lucid olive
#

yes he said it was buggy

craggy sonnet
#

i mean usually

#

other than looking at it for this now

#

because if not, just putting the starlord buff icon in the otherwise empty buff group should be easy enough

#

doesnt require an addon or anything

drifting nova
#

whoever made the aa puzzle box needs to find a new job wtf

#

this is cursed

#

it's eclipse in item form

exotic perch
#

yeah it sucks to use

#

but damn is it good

drifting nova
#

cant remember if the cursed idol was a stationary channel now

#

barely got to use it as never got it til end

#

atleast that was half the casttime

meager storm
#

only took them a gazillion years OOOO

#

W

craggy sonnet
#

couldnt you select from a dropdown before anyways?

lucid olive
#

yeah 1 per sim

craggy sonnet
#

ohhh

#

its combinations

#

sorry

#

ofc

#

fried

meager storm
#

prob should remove the dropdown one

#

since its getting ignored

craggy sonnet
#

its the fallback if you dont select anything

#

or?

meager storm
#

i had haste on the dropdown one and then i selected haste too on the new options and added like 3 mil combinations

#

so i think the dropdown one is literally just not counting at all

#

same for food and pot

meager storm
craggy sonnet
#

it also is gonna always sim your base with the option from the dropdown i think

meager storm
#

if u have nothing selected it uses the drop down ones, but if u choose from the combinations it uses those exclusively and ignores the dropdown

#

W

craggy sonnet
#

i think it sims your base (current) with the dropdown one

#

since it adds a single combination worth of iterations

#

if you select just one from the new thing

meager storm
#

nah i selected vers and ignored the haste from the dropdown

#

unless only base gear is the haste one

craggy sonnet
#

yes, thats what i mean

#

the "Current Gear" one

#

is with the dropdown option

#

Hey guys sorry a bit of a noob question but, on crown of the cosmos, is there any indicator for who is being targeted by the first void expulsion cast?

#

It seems like the purple arrows only appear for the subsequent 2 targets?

lucid olive
#

isnt that a debuff

ancient lodge
#

I actually didn't check my raid frames to verify if a debuff appears hmm

#

I was hoping there would be a indicator, like I would grow big or get a purple arrows.

But those seem to appear on the follow up cast rather than the initial cast haha? Not sure if I'm wrong hmm

exotic perch
#

the first one is not targetted

#

the next 3 are you get the debuff

meager storm
#

first one is baited, then the other ones are debuffs on people pretty sure

exotic perch
#

hence why stacking is good

lofty depot
#

u also turn big no?

dull dust
#

arctic

lofty depot
#

hi

ancient lodge
#

What is nsrt haha?

dull dust
#

hi

lofty depot
#

northern sky raid tools

#

its in bigwigs too i think

ancient lodge
#

I think bigwigs has the countdown, but I didn't see it saying who's the one who's gonna bait the first poop ball haha

#

But I'm likely wrong haha!

lofty depot
#

just enable it surely

ancient lodge
#

Ahh ok let me double check that hmm

#

Thanks guys!:)

digital berry
#

Btw what is this meek thing and why are weak auras back

#

Is that a bit coin miner that I just put into my addon folder ?

somber path
#

its a fork of weakauras that has less functionality then the original but works for midnight

gloomy spruce
dull dust
#

hi

meager storm
ancient lodge
#

Uh oh no wonderr

#

I may have been unintentionally messing up the raid

#

I always thought I only had to bait it if I had a purple arrow

delicate perch
#

fuck em

ancient lodge
#

Ofc

#

It'll let me out parse them more

untold ice
#

it was like that very briefly

#

then it got bugged or reverted or something

bleak kiln
#

Are log analysis chill here?

#

Need to figure out what I could be doing better

lofty depot
#

arctic = chill

grim crater
#

Lightblinded fight I just did

#

felt better, still not great

#

at moments I peaked for 100+ dps but fell off a bit in this run, other attempts in the same instance I kept a more stable amount of dmg

unreal bridge
#

those are the talents i used, i was doing 135k

#

im 272 not at all decent trinkets

ivory talon
#

Yo quick question in AA what buff are people taking for say a +15ish

lofty depot
#

if were not worried about that we shall just work through it

lofty depot
#
  1. this sunfire in incarn is not ok
#
  1. that surge prior to incarn, were just wasting asp prior to our big cds
#
  1. you dotted everything and sat casting wrath for 5 seconds.... either send cds after the dots or enter eclipse then do that
#
  1. foe prior to trees
grim crater
#

that has an explanation

#

fkn team wouldn' t dispell paladins

#

all the fkn fight

#

so they would lust and in order not to waste my whole rotation I just kept spamming wrath to do something

grim crater
#

when bubbles went down thats when I would throw Trees Foes and Incarn

lofty depot
#

do u mean "wouldnt" dispell?

#

or

grim crater
#

yeah exactly, just corrected it

lofty depot
#

ok so i would suggest next time.. telling them to seek help

grim crater
#

ik

lofty depot
#

what we doing here

grim crater
#

I was so mad

grim crater
lofty depot
#

assumption being its the move

#

(idk timings cba)

#

but press wild charge for it :/

#

the problem with this sequence is ur delayed and now foe doesnt line up

grim crater
#

as in, I waited too much or didnt wait for them to go off cd?

lofty depot
#

yea so cds are fun

#

generally u align them up

#

i need u to stop pressing regrwoth in ca

#

uhh also i didnt really think about it til now

#

when theres only 2 targets ur starfire will hit, u shouldve been in solar and wrathing

#

but 3t boss can be funny

#

sorry got busy

#

ur essentially not preparing for movement and having major gaps

#

paladins has a big move like every minute

#

all the rest of them are out of group side step stuff

#

u shouldve also crafted staff by now

ripe depot
#

Hello. Does anyone have a plater profile or plater mod that updates colors based on if moonfire and sunfire is on the target? I can’t get any mods Iv found on wago to work.

lucid olive
#

that function doesnt work anymore

lofty depot
#

ive seen people start taking crit

ripe depot
grim crater
#

I could be casting but I'm not cause I have nothing

grim crater
#

like the nam

#

I thought our bis was the one hander from Belo'ren

#

nevermind I got it

lofty depot
#

idk go lok at wowhead

#

somehting cane

static sluice
lofty depot
#

just cuz something is bis later doesnt mean its the best option early

red nymph
#

did they fix the cheap feast reset?

delicate perch
#

sure (I have no idea what that means)

red nymph
#

if you ate a hearty feast you could refresh the duration with a non hearty feast

lofty depot
#

not that im aware

#

it worked last raid

delicate perch
#

sounds like poor activites

sonic mica
#

errr anyone knows the stat priority for balance? Wowhead says haste>crit>mastery>vers.........icyveins is mastery>haste>crit>vers

delicate perch
lofty depot
#

depends on ur gear... what ur doing and plenty of other things

#

sim your dude

Hello guys

#

Anyone has northern sky raid tool profile with vocal reminders so i can copy / post it plz ?

lofty depot
#

shows like spell and text tts

#

check the boxes

tight cypress
#

Hey there, just had a look at some guides and came across something weird. In the single target priority for elunes chosen with starweaver it seems like you dont enter solar eclipse? Do you just cast Starfire as builder?

jaunty blaze
#

You cant even enter solar in elunes chosen

tight cypress
#

Oh yeah i just noticed

#

sounds like a fun version to try out for M+

rain prairie
jaunty blaze
#

Read the lunar calling talent and it will become clear why starfire is your main builder

#

You only wrath in st while playing elunes chosen when you aren't in eclipse

rain prairie
#

Oh thank you

#

That's really helpful

stable frigate
delicate perch
#

Huh you sure about that? Do you EVER cast wrath in elune's besides maybe prepulling?

molten ember
#

Huh you sure about that? Do you EVER cast wrath in elune's besides maybe prepulling?

jolly delta
#

I am not sure of anything

slender island
#

that is a very a healthy approach to things

jolly delta
#

ok maybe there are two things of which I am sure

vital hound
#

Huh you sure about that? Do you EVER cast wrath in elune's besides maybe prepulling?

copper valve
#

I thought it was a thing that Star Cascade procs when the projectile hits the target OMEGALOOOOOOL

#

Didn't know it was an actual bug

wise aurora
#

Does anyone have an add on or a good time setup for tracking free starsurge/starfall procs. I find I have to stare at small icons currently and miss so many.

#

I feel like they should be our pop up icons around our character like eclipses

hushed jetty
#

Is there somewhere I can see what % of my DPS is expected to come from each ability?

I understand in AoE it will differ on the amount of enemies, but in single target maybe.

I just want to know if I'm optimizing my DoTs really

slender island
#

but no point really in targetting %s of dps per ability, so best to just practice your rotation ThumbsUp

sleek dirge
#

Hey, im not entirely sure which gems to get. I've simed several times my character and it seems to change all the time. Mastery/haste seems to be the classical combo but i've seen a lot of Crit/Haste on some top warcraft logs profile.

What are your thoughts on that?

raven obsidian
round field
#

Just chose one and stick with it

#

It wont make a relevant difference

fiery kindle
#

what do u prefer in m+? i dont want play EC..

jaunty blaze
#

Then dont

fiery kindle
jaunty blaze
#

Idk you can just not play it?

#

Noone forcing you

fiery kindle
jaunty blaze
#

Ok but bm is actually good in m+ what's your point

fiery kindle
#

I was just asking a question

jaunty blaze
#

I answered it tho

#

But you already have your mind made up

atomic cove
#

Big boomies

#

are there any boomie goats to watch good pov videos or explanation of rotation?

jaunty blaze
#

Don't think there is anyone for educational content but ppl stream boomie gameplay

slender island
#

but boomies are moonkin, not goats

jaunty blaze
#

Krona canexx dwilkz

atomic cove
#

Hahaha

#

right you are

#

ok ty guys i will check em out

#

does any of them do raid too?

jaunty blaze
#

They do but idk if they stream it

gentle patio
#

or another talent

jaunty blaze
#

Ye you can also just not talent lunar calling

gentle patio
#

yep

jaunty blaze
#

Do you ever do that

viscid ermine
#

After starfall buffs, we starfalling 2 targets now?

#

Like dragons or p2 alleria

grand galleon
#

Whats like a good overall to be aiming for in M+?

stable hawk
#

depends on the dungeon you're pushing

#

like what lvl

grand galleon

12-14's playing trees as well

#

Hi. How do you guys track sun/moonfire and when do I need to cast those?

twin lotus
#

ashamas, open the pins of the discord and read carefuly the rotation on dreamgrove.gg

#

practice it on a dummy until u feel comfortable

#

You can use the cooldown manager to track them

copper gate
#

Good morning my fellow moons and suns

ivory barn
#

we dont use fury of elune in raids anymore? I musta missed something

fair pasture
wise aurora
#

Where is the best place to see good talent loadout for specific raid encounters?

storm karma
#

Archon shows common builds for boss encounters with alternatives

#

Is it the best. Idk lol

wise aurora
#

Thanks, at least a starting point for things for me to consider

craggy sonnet
#

can also see whats being played on warcraftlogs

grand galleon
#

Yeah warcraft logs is really good for that I find

lucid olive
#

nah

#

only deivations like that are in class tree

#

can look at what top logs do

#

for spec and hero talents it depends what dmg profile your group needs

leaden birch
#

No one runs convoke anymore sadge

lofty depot
#

Down with convoke

leaden birch
#

What's wrong with the voke

#

Voke goes brr

#

Kinda

wise aurora
#

At least it's not run Kyrian instead of convole this time

lofty depot
#

When all ur damage is front loaded and/or comes from 1 ability, and necessarily an ability only good at st.....it's shit

#

Look at feral

leaden birch
#

I don't even look in the direction of feral

lofty depot
#

Skill expression >

red nymph
#

?? boss is still impossible for balance

lofty depot
#

Correct

red nymph
#

but actually free as resto

lofty depot
#

Go play as bear/resto or go do it with a group of 5

red nymph
#

resto you can just put 3 hots on alleria and afk until dispell

lucid olive
#

just find a group in lfg

#

theres loads of em doing it for the crests

red nymph
#

i tried it as bear as well, got him to like 7% then got hit got 900k?

jade flume
#

man pugging dreamrift

#

is some crazy shit

#

and its such a bitchass boss too

lofty depot
red nymph
#

Well when every other one hits you for like 200k and then a 900k comes out of nowhere, its kind of hard to plan for without any warning that its going to for 4x as much damage

lofty depot
#

End up sending incarn prior to intermission 3

#

Then having it in the last 25%, pop it and slam as much as possible

red nymph
#

Why would I even worry about that tho? I can just go resto and use 1% of the brainpower

drifting nova
#

you know why

lofty depot
#

So u plan out ur CDs a bit to do things to not die

red nymph
#

Sure yess but when a mechanic goes from doing 200k damage one hit to 900k the next without any warning, like an enrage, there is no planning. Its unforeseen.

lofty depot
#

Well no, it's foreseen cuz p3 it hits harder

#

U just lacked knowledge

red nymph
#

They were both in p3

#

Correct. I lacked the knowledge that it could randomly hit 4x harder

lofty depot
#

Valeera give u shield or w.e. sometimes

#

Sometimes u have cheat

#

Wcyd

red nymph
#

Go resto

lofty depot
#

Lol well u knew that before and didn't do it

#

So confusion

red nymph
#

But I didnt. Tried balance, still bugged. Tried guardian, RNG one shot. Tried resto, sat there while Alleria killed. I learned each pull

lucid olive
#

Resto is easier but guardian makes you feel like you did something

#

If you're doing as resto might as well go in LFG and find a group so it's 15 minutes faster

hushed jetty
#

Got all purples yesterday :d

bitter hedge
hushed jetty
analog moat
#

Holy shit you weren't kidding. Haven't played resto in like over a year, one shot it.

ebon parcel
#

in 2 target boss fights such as Vaelgor
do i still use starfall when there are no adds or still starsurge on 2 targets?

red nymph
#

Starfall

craggy sonnet
#

yeah, it was a lie from big sim

#

target swapping still better

#

unless you dont play goldrinn

ebon parcel
craggy sonnet
#

this was the previous sim on the topic by @pallid bay just taking the default APL and modifying it.
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/wzSLt5X6sHMFv2bdvHJFLH

i just included a check to always surge the target with lowest stellar amp duration (though you might argue to not take stellar amp at all but that requires some more talent combination sims)
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/b7NAZmxnn2wjKG1QX9DTJd

last breach
#

so starfall > starsurge 2 targets?

red nymph
craggy sonnet
#

about what?

red nymph
#

steller amp and refresshing the lowest target each starsurge

#

shit like that is sooo impractical esp for people learning the class itself

#

sooo min max that has a greater chance of just being less damage if you mess up rather then just slamming starfall

craggy sonnet
#

im just giving you information. you can do with it whatever you want

#

(though i think the setup of that sim is not fair .. now that i look at it, it is straight up removing points .. so definitely need to run some talent combinations)

lofty depot
lofty depot
lofty depot
#

It might be impractical for some. And plenty of people were slamming starfalls on dragons regardless

#

Some of us do minmax shit

#

There's all ways of life here

craggy sonnet
#

why is this talent combination sim taking meteor storm πŸ’€

lofty depot
#

Lock in

#

I wonder if I take meteor storm for cosmos maybe droplets die faster we get amp faster

#

Take makes sense surely

craggy sonnet
#

AK probably only worth over it if there are consistently more targets (or them being spread) to require more than a single cast of mf/sf to upkeep and them living long enough as well

lofty depot
#

I've been casting Sunfire moonfire on morium during the 2nd interrupt cast

#

Reupping it at that time

#

But I'm not getting I'm not actually getting many starfalls sometimes :/ in that 10ish second window :/

#

Just slamming surges

proper mica
#

What talents yalls running for dragons

craggy sonnet
#

ok, so after actually applying fair talent combinations to these 2t options (including target swapping for stellar amp):
default starfall - cosmos starfall
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/hgNMX7ozTiPtexmGZNcf3F
default starfall - cosmos surge
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/kRgYJPkPM7wmhhdPZ1v3Ze
default surge - cosmos starfall
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/j6Vee85KhjbFQX2bkDHWPx
default surge - cosmos surge
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/1XztWBBrCW1EiM8mbyGCzg

#

it does indeed seem that starfall is quite handily ahead

analog moat
#

I thought meteorites was just terrible in every context, but it's ok on dragons?

craggy sonnet
#

yes

lofty depot
#

It's not terrible

#

It's terrible in context of spam casting surge vs starfall

#

Ur now casting Starfall at 2, so it looks better

craggy sonnet
#

and it is going to be even better in two weeks

#

on 2t+

lofty depot
#

Hellya

#

Is ptr live

craggy sonnet
#

think so

lofty depot
#

Wanna test it this weekend

craggy sonnet
#

test pressing starfall?

lofty depot
#

Ye

dull dust
drifting nova
#

SuspiciousChicken whys the top dude on chim using it

dull dust
#

soon we remove all the pad from logs

lucid olive
#

meteorites is a very good 1 target talent if you press starfall a bunch

#

it just doesn't make sense to have a starfall talent that is only good on low target counts, but that doesn't mean it's a bad talent

analog moat
# lucid olive what made you think that

Eh, the other day I remember people talking about it. And that it doesn't proc from each hit like the tooltip says, only like once every 2 seconds or something.

lucid olive
#

yes

#

the tooltip doesn't say that it procs from every hit

#

it says it procs whenever Starfall deals damage

#

it just doesn't tell you anywhere how Starfall does damage

#

and Starfall tooltip says it calls down "waves of falling stars over 8 seconds"

#

it's a little confusing maybe but the wording for Meteorites is exactly what the talent does

analog moat
#

That's fair.

lucid olive
#

Starfall does its damage in waves and for each wave it's +1 proc on a random target

#

I assume Meteorites only proc on stuff in Starfall now instead of "any target regardless of combat state and range as long as you're targeting it"

#

like it did on beta

twin lotus
#

good change for meteorites

lucid olive
#

idk

#

not sure i agree

twin lotus
#

Was there a scenario where you would get meteorites over goldryns in ST?

lucid olive
#

look at current raid bosses

#

and then define ST for me in that scenario

twin lotus
#

yeah ...

lucid olive
#

is ST boss dmg on alleria and salhadaar

#

or is ST talents for beloren

#

cause those are vastly different

#

i think regardless of meteorites hitting 1 or 2 targets it can still hit shit like 99% DR'd adds on Imperator

#

or ball that's about to die on Salhadaar

#

maybe it's hitting NPCs on Vaelgor and nobody has realized

twin lotus
#

It's a bad talent overall, the change is imo towards a good direction

#

but very underwhelming talent

lucid olive
#

i disagree on it being a bad talent

#

make it proc on current target and it's a really good boss dmg talent

twin lotus
#

I am calling it bad in terms of how it feels.

#

It's not very satisfying to press starfall, and the talent doesnt help

lucid olive
#

i guess that's where we differ

#

i think pressing Starfall to fish for Starweaver procs is the single most fun thing I've done on this spec

#

since Dragonflight season 1

#

where I pressed Starfall to fish for Starweaver procs

#

I might be contrarian but if you read the developer note for why Meteorites is getting changed

twin lotus
#

as in using ur cosmos procs to get starweaver procs?

lucid olive
#

it's because the talent needed to "clarify Meteorite's role and how it works"

#

which they could have done by just writing a clearer tooltip

#

and maybe specifying Meteorites hitting your current target instead of piss random probably immune target

#

but the talent is being removed in 12.1 anyway so we only get this season to play it

#

it's going the same exact route as Lunar Shrapnel did

#

and the one before that and the one after that

twin lotus
#

what is it getting replaced with?

lucid olive
#

who knows

#

I am making shit up

#

but knowing how these things usually go

#

that talent is not meant for this world

#

even tho it's by far the best talent they've made to make Starweaver a viable option on ST cleave bosses

dull dust
#

wtf lying on the interwebs

twin lotus
#

starweaver is very fun though, I agree

lucid olive
#

Starweaver being fun is the reason it's taking me a while to figure out how to write a feedback post

twin lotus
#

I am just a bit bummed in M+ where I am playing KotG with rattle. Pop all CDs and spam 500 starfalls and dmg isnt even taht good

lucid olive
#

I am a big fan of the current version of the spec even though I know some people feel the exact opposite

#

so posting objective feedback is difficult

dull dust
#

I kinda want generators to generate more

#

10 wrath aint it chief

lucid olive
#

thats what i've been saying for months

#

but people freak out if you mention a talent that increases value of filler casts

kindred sluice
#

I would rather not all our damage be focus on spenders and give wrath and starfire more power back

lucid olive
#

okay i'm freaking out

twin lotus
#

Thats an extremely hot take Nights

#

lmao

dull dust
lucid olive
#

i can't say my true opinion on that take

#

auto mod will get me

#

I think the biggest thing that has to get changed is Hail of Stars, but providing that feedback to Blizzard is very scary since that talent is the only thing holding Starweaver up

dull dust
#

3x wrath ap Gen an lower its dmg and mabey spender dmg a bit

#

spec would feel 2x better

lucid olive
#

I really like having a talent that interacts with free spenders like Cosmos and Starweaver

#

but Hail of Stars giving Solstice duration is just a big gaping hole of dogshit

dull dust
#

well I guess starfall too

#

fire*

#

imagine if starfire wasn't a shit ass cast time

lucid olive
#

you can take SOTF for more active AP gen

dull dust
#

isnt it tho

lucid olive
#

nobody is playing it

#

we've been through this route entirety of TWW

#

its really not that easy

dull dust
#

make sotf number bigger and they will

lucid olive
#

the talents that increase active AP gen are competing against a bunch of passive AP+dmg talents

#

astral communion, stellar amp, nature's balance, wild mushroom

#

celestial fire (idk why they made this talent)

#

shooting stars

#

solstice

dull dust
#

we could just delete like 10 talents

lucid olive
#

all passive AP gen talents that lower the value of filler casts

dull dust

gamz is bullying me again

#

mods help

lucid olive
#

it's fun to think about like "oh if they changed this 1 little thing the spec would be better"

#

but its not that easy

#

also need to somehow maintain balance between talents

#

and that's where current moonkin is actually really good

#

not a lot of specs have the same amount of choice

#

moonkin players manage to paint that as a bad thing, but i think that's more of a comment on the community than the spec

analog moat
#

Anyone got a good plater profile tehy like? I'm using Jundies but it's kinda smalla nd hard to see the buffs.

you can also get jundies for platynator its easier to adjust to your liking there

how does it not have choice

Are people actually playing those? I've only played Incarn kotg and EC for vanguard

cause orbital strike in isolated scenario is bigger value

@lofty depot

@sudden flame i see u

hushed jetty
#

Could someone explain how the free crest upgrade thing works on slots that have two items like trinkets and rings?

I thought upgrading one ring would mean the second ring would be free but that doesn't seem to be the case

analog moat
#

You need both slots to be at the level for example 3/6 hero. Then any future items you find in that slot get upgraded to 3/6 hero with gold.

#

It's for if you get a shitty piece that you want to replace, you can upgrade it and not worry about wasting crests when you find an upgrade.

hushed jetty
#

okay I understand, the double slots were confusing me a bit but it makes sense that you need both

lucid olive
#

for Weapons it also counts a two-hander as both slots

#

So if you upgrade a Staff you can upgrade both main hand + off hand for free

hushed jetty
#

Thats good to know, although my staff is crafted :p

#

working on the 80 hero crests right now

lucid olive
#

yeah, just good information to have anyway

wispy lake
#

what stats you will put in the craft stafft?

analog moat
#

Sim it but generally haste/mast

sleek dirge
hushed jetty

Idk if they can see my mythic+ rating or if it's just my ilvl but anything above +6 is insta decline, or has been so far

#

Although I am playing healer haha

#

Seems to get me more groups

sleek dirge
#

hushed jetty
#

Lots of grass

drifting nova
hushed jetty
#

Is there a general priority in which to upgrade items? like if both my chest and my trinket are the right stats should I do chest first because I get more stats per crest?

drifting nova
#

jewellery

sleek dirge
#

yes. big stuff pieces : head, chest, legs give more intellect stats so give them a boost.
then medium size pieces such as boots, gloves
then small pieces : cloak, bracers
rings and neck don't give intellect, only endurance and secondary stats.
im not qualified to judge where that goes in the prio list, but big pieces go first for sure

chilly python
#

Stats over the rest, trinket is debatable

is balance more viable for pve content? raid and m+

normal pilot

you're gonna have to explain what you mean by viable because every spec is viable

#

say what you're really looking for. easy pug, chart dps, or something else

drifting nova
#

neither are viable to title push

wise scroll
#

chart dps and competitive dps also easy pug. doing all content with pug

normal pilot

if you want to pug then balance. pugs are dumb and they'll pick balance even if feral is actually better

drifting nova

not like theyl know til you turn up

in cat form

lucid olive

talent into moonkin form so you can pretend youre a chicken until key has started

then they know you're a chicken

turn up as cat, pretend to be cat

convinced a large percentage of players have dinosaur vision

they only see you when you move

or do the much easier route and use a toy

Am I wrong to forfeit trees and make my rotation easier by playing Elune in raids ? I know it's more punishing but I believe making mistakes would hinder my DPS more (I'm still learning so I will make mistakes)

lofty depot
#

i think ur overcomplicating it and should just learn how to play it

#

i feel like pressing trees with your ca isnt that hard

wicked shuttle
#

I think trees are much easier than EC in raid due to the globals attached to starfire

chilly python

why do u dislike solar eclipse

true viper

Guys mr beast is giving away $10k to anyone who plays ec in single target

Aside from council

Can’t relate. I’m afk in silver moon

Need to learn what bosses do then. I expected needing to cleave once in a while and having actually balance between both eclipse

lucid olive
#

perma free globals

#

feels like BM hunter

lofty depot
lucid olive
#

Its not just "use Lunar Eclipse whenever 3 targets are alive"

#

they should ideally live for a bit of Lunar duration + be in range to get cleaved from Starfire

#

and in raid that rarely happens so its safer to just enter Solar instead

#

unless youre on bosses where you can do prolonged cleave, like council bosses

wispy lynx

Hello, is there a guide to which items pref to craft for balance druid?

lucid olive
#

wowhead

#

gear page, scroll down and there is "late crafts" and "early crafts"

fickle pier
lofty depot
#

well i still want to know why he dislikes solar

normal pilot
#

maybe he thinks you need lunar to starfall

spice roost
normal pilot
#

it's a common mistake ppl make

lucid olive
#

yeah i never understood that one

normal pilot
#

starfall is blue/white icon = lunar eclipse

fickle pier
#

10 years of having to cast two unempowered starfires in ST. They yearn for the useless, slow casts I guess

unborn perch
#

Basement dwellers shun the light

chilly python
#

Felt weaker and during leveling having an instant Starfire made me want to click lunar to increase it's damage

fickle pier
#

This is how little damage wrath and starfire do

chilly python
fickle pier
#

ya spenders do the same damage in either eclipse

normal pilot
#

it is kind of badly explained

fickle pier
#

it is

normal pilot
#

or i guess just not explained at all

fickle pier
#

you aren't casting starfire in raid outside of paladins as EC, or your first filler after entering CA is a starfire because its instant and just hits harder than a wrath while you have both eclipses

craggy sonnet
#

wdym?! you cant deduct astral being both nature and arcane?

lofty depot
#

theres things u do at low level that u just dont at max

#

but yea assumption was that he thought lunar meant starfall

#

and why would u press starfall in solar cuz "im st-ing"

dull dust
#

because its good

#

make circle circle cool

fickle pier
#

most scenarios in raid where you're dumping starfalls, starfire would only hit like 2 targets anyways

#

anything that is actually stack cleave gets obliterated by prolapsing star

i couldnt get a dps number for arcanoweave on sim thingy

weapon should be the biggest upgrade (though you could have tried not to invest hero crests into crafting your staff initially, since these are just "wasted" now)

fair pasture

yeah

should be able to sim arcanoweave, you can right-click the item in the selection thing and add an embellishment
