Sorry for the dumb question, but why is everyone using Starweaver? On every sim I run, that build performs worse for me. Since on M+ keys Iβm doing AoE most of the time, I donβt really care about the free Starsurge β Iβd rather have Starfall hit harder. Am I missing something? π
Procs are fun
thats it? xD
Yes
I think itβs better in single target or smth
And gets benefit from tier set
You can argue it's better prio damage
xD
Just feels a lot better to play too imo
ok I'll try this. thx π
I donβt even want to ask what simβs they are but this made me laugh thank you
π
Very susge
idk i really got bored of these weaver procs and reacting to them got quite annoying now
just playing rattle in keys now
i too hate when my spec is more fun and interactive
its not more fun bro
staring at a proc icon every global and alternating between two spenders instead of spamming one is just more effort but not more fun imo
sure can be nice because its something different than what we had for ages for a couple dungeons
but not in my 8 weeklies i gotta bang out on a tuesday evening
this just proves the average player just prefes a braindead 1 button rotation and blizzard will keep nuking class design until every spec is classic frost mage
I just don't like pressing starsurge in big target counts / munching that proc
In raid though love starweaver
I completely agree with you
i liked frenzy
ur lying

bis boomkin was tww prepatch with new talents so we had pulsar which triggered syzygy
that was some dopamine
True
Frenzy pulsar
Should have kept it in game and just tuned the numbers down a lil
And youd have the most fun spec in the entire game
Can't have fun in this god forsaken videogame
Fun detected 
it was absurd amounts of damage π
but i think it would have also been fun wiht less damage
too hard for nowadays philosophy tho
timing pulsar right in keys and if u wanna line all that up adds some difficulty
and yea not being afk aswell
but youre right on top of that there wasnt much to it
pressing the right things at the right times in frenzy was solved by wa back then
but can just use brain
i like seeing the solstice buff going up with the procs
we try again
Real peak gameplay was moons with pulsar
Felt good to get the rhythm down to minmaxing moons during pulsar windows
Please excuse my ignorance.
But why are we taking Starweaver over Rattle of the Stars in M+??
ignorance not excused
You can play either
same question was asked here
maybe the following messaged help you
the following msg's literally tell you jackshit wdym
weaver is better for several reasons; prio damage, proccing free damage (starfall/starsurge), hail of stars, movement, etc.
in extended or larger AOE pulls rattle will probably be better
Hey guys i got 6 Sparks left for crafting isome ppl say Haste/mastery/crit some say crit haste mastery.. i wanna craft a ring and neck or wairst or smth can some1 help me pls which stats i have to prio and caps and stuff? i didjnt find any good guide for stats cap
have you used raidbots before?
not yet just icy veins wowhead and archon
Ok. So nowadays there isnt really a stat priority cause it heavily depends on what gear you already have. Mastery, Crit and Haste are all good for boomkin. What we do to figure out what to craft is use raidbots to simulate our characters in a raid encounter.
simc version on weekly? or latest
Doesnt really matter
how do he tell me what to craft
Use a topgear sim, in topgear you can add custom items in the top and then add embellishments to those items
then you choose all of them and it will simulate and find out the best combination of all items for you
okey i gonna try that thx man
as a hint: its easier if you add for example a crafted belt at correct ilvl, add embellishment with the + icon (unselect original item so it doesnt use sim iterations/combinations) and then you can change the stats of the item with the + icon aswell to have multiple different versions of it going into your sim
Mahra forgot to mention that you can import your own character and stuff in bags by using the simulationcraft addon and typing /simc ingame. That produces a string you can paste in the box on the top gear page on raidbots
yea u cant even do topgear without that it just comes up with explanation when u press topgear
Better than a green boy
quite a lot above average = bad 
correct
Very true
fair. havent actively read any of these disclaimers in a while
saaame i was gonna say he needs to do that but then saw its not even possible wihtout
is there a way to macro hotw with bearform?
not in one button press cause bear form triggers a global cooldown
are we just not using convoke at all now in raids?
using it on mythic bird
going through lorrgs.io and none is taking or use convoke like t all
thats it yeah bird
yea everything else has cringe add pad
why on bird, what makesi it useful on bird?
ahh yeah ofc
burst*
so we just taking elune to padd dmg on adds
nah
adds dont live ling enough
its cringe keeper weaver add pad with sometimes taking the talent that makes your starfall tick faster
You can also play ethical convoke on saladar
if your orbs are dying sure
Dunno got bored competing for orb dmg
Ethical raid
Elune's doesn't mean you're only padding on adds. You can do that just fine with keeper.
its just better than convoke for every fight in Cosmos raid?
theres nothing to do in the raid other than pad anyways
Presumably when u said elune's u meant Incarn?
They mean incarn, not the hero tree
maybe english is not their first language
tbf
any other insult is just w.e.
the average dutch person has better english than the average american
been born and bred on the internet...
Bred online π
Gotta make money somehow
Make money breding π
Didn't you play ec incarn on belo?
Unless I'm stupid, wcl says that 100% played convoke
I played convoke
Oh
There's a few degens playing incarn
it's better damage..
Wth, not even following your own sim
but probably movement kinda ass
if its better damage why is no one in top 100 with it...
Wouldn't try that shit
if the sun is good for you, then why do we use sunscreen?
because its bad for u...
Also, need to figure out how did 9.5m on a bunch without pi and then got pi and neve hit above 9
Gotta cope about that a little
if working out is good for you, why does it wear out your body?
no it doesnt
yes, it does
it only does if ur built like a lil bitch
?

If u use fire to cook your food to make it edible, why does it hurt when hot
yeah sorry
There's some uhh weird temperature thing
yeah no one is taking convoke, I thought it was still the main raid spec we use
DOH
convoke kinda dookie poopoo with how much aoe is in the raid
Funny wowhead talents said convoke and 1m and no one looks past that to see actual fight talents
Down with the wowhead writer
tbh Ive not had much time to play at all, just sorted my UI now finally
and now looking into specs we are playing
When people come in here post logs and I see 1m convoke, at least ik they did no looking at logs they just copied wowhead
but why is wowhead spreading misinformation then..
cause who cares about padding add dmg in heroic
Its not like the build doesn't do damage or u can't do damage.
It's not
Its hard to know what spec to actually play
So it's not misinformation, it's just an easy indicator that they didn't look at logs
Like where do we stand
Sorting through the logs to see which ones only did high damage because they bribed the rest of their team to ignore adds is not a fun activity
there's no one-size fits all this tier
U go to warcraft logs and u copy the build for what ur doing
Yeah it's this more than anything else
padding add dmg is mythic is just terrible as well no?
Padding is inherently bad tho?
the word padding is negative no?
it's literally called padding
Define padding in this case
Propaganda man
thoughts
padding is negative imo cause imo it means u do damage thats not needed to up your number
wait ill define it
Padding means "making something small look bigger than it is"
So if u don't kill the orbs on saladbar u die
But its padding
no its not padding if its needed
it's still padding
ok
Ok so what's padding in the raid if it's not needed
this may be wrong, but to me "padding" is doing damaege that isnt needed to PAD your own dps numbers
cause your spec is SHIT at killing the small orbs
Padding is just going out of your way to overkill something that passive damage could have killed
Ok what adds don't need to die in raid
so as an example doing dmg to adds when your class is bad at it and its not needed
if you have one balance druid focusing all his efforts into the small orbs, you'd be done tomorrow
with killing the boss
thoughts?
Our class isn't bad at doing damage to adds
im padding on dragons cause im prestarfalling, running a talent that makes my starfall tick faster and playing shrooms to maximize add damage meanwhile destroying everyone elses logs cause they cant keep up with the aoe burst
they all need to die, should we be the one to do it tho?
if other classes lose less dps than us or gain dps
your group can't kill voidorbs
What makes u think I do less damage?
so that kinda proves my point
if we were good for killing smallies, we would get stacked this raid
thoughts??
Im not saying you, im saying as a class
I am my class
Like I don't know anything really about what classes are good at what
cause the smallies are usually mega overkilled and not needed
we lose single target when we aoe, and other classes, gain dmg or lose less
ye
so they should be killing adds
and arctic is wrong
thats the most cringe shit i ever read

truee
Go look at ur boss damage and then compare to the "non-padders" and then explain to me how ur number is higher while doing "pad add damage"
and if we dont have the dps to kill adds then more less efficent classes should do it
i jumped into this convo and im gonna jump out agian bb
real council fight when
Kek
"hey guys we can pad without losing the minimal boss damage we do, isn't that epic?"
good argument bro
I don't see a wrong part of that statement so get mad
Im not making an argument, Im posting my understanding, which is poor
arent u a mage
No
π
no dw Im talking to arctic
you are gucci
I'm just baiting him..
pretty sure he's grimzzy
truths
Yea deux is wrong so he baits
need to get your eyes checked
no I have to fill my last 20 minutes of the work-day
im on my last 3 minutes
Out of context is great
speed this up pls
Ezpz reply speed
last 20 minutes of the work week 
idk if he can hes in the caribbean
Think u misunderstand our damage but to each their own
no...
I have no idea about our damaege
which is why im posting here
Well u have preconceived assumptions for some reason
poor grimzzy
U assume we're bad at it
And idk why
I don't think he's assuming anything he's just trying to understand
I assume other classes are better
not that we are bad
I guess its the same thing
is god
with moons floating around us
oh
Arctic do you use meteor storm on dragons?
and we can manipulate them
can i get an amen
Meteor storm is the definition of a pad talent
Why do u assume that tho
You lose boss damage to do add damage faster
meteor what now
This
IM regarded maybe?
sorry I meant meteorites..
Why do I lose damage to boss with it?
tf you mean pad talent
starfall without it
is giga dog
14 business days to do damage
if anything it should be passive

Theoretically u could gain damage if u press starfall at 5s remaining on incarn, a normal Starfall would lose 3s of time outside of incarn
That's maff
Now you're grasping at straws
rather cancelaura again
(not that I did)
Yea but those are movement globals on a hard fight
Mmhm mmhm
More like meth
can you clarify for me, what are we good at, what are we bad at?
is that why you play manual shrooms too
Good at padding
cause there's sooooo much movement
He's just arguing because bored
Yea mmhmm mmhm
Well there's tether right
So I need to move back after wild charginf
Mmhm mmhm
A lot of movement, hard fight
So my DK can grip them silly
Im asking the question still tho as I have no idea
Can't believe we're entertaining Arctics excuse for wanting to pad
If you want to pad, just pad
π
i read tether and thought alleria
I do and I will
why are we talking about a 3rd boss
Smh
its the 2nd month of the tier
yeah lets minmax the boss you kill in 3 minutes
worry about killing lura instead
I am, with wild mushroom
does solar beam kick all three adds on mythic lura?
no
thank you
so boomie beam is useless
if Im honest
always has been
even though Im against padding
no
this tier it matters so little for balance druid
it's the same usefulness as all the other kicks are on that boss
The term padding also depends entirely on how few hands you have between all your dps players
if you're assigned a kick and nobody steals it you have kick back up for next round of the mechanic
If your raid doesn't have hands then bursting down adds on saladbar or dragons isn't awful
We are actually really good at killing a lot of shitter adds. We do lose damage, but ur not being brought for your boss damage. You're being brought cuz u don't have a bear or resto, and feral is beans
solar beam is just as useful as any other kick on that fight
honestly probably more useful since its among the only kicks that shows your team a visual that you pressed it at all
so our priority should be, killing shitter adds, and spec accordingly to kill shitter adds without destryoing your single target
which surely raids should rotate pad weeks

honestly this would be a useful summary to have on wowhead and dreamgrove
dont listen to the chief padder
arctic will mental gymnastics for hours to justify being unethical
Assuming arctic is right because he has a funny colour on discord is not it
do not engage
can you answer the question then, what are we good at, what are we bad at?
only white names speak sense, orange and green are fake
yes I know
really doesnt help rotato is booty
Are you still mad about eclipse being a button?
are you asking kekkers
Yes
Ok so we are good at spread aoe cleave and we should lean into that on fights with spread aoe cleave
just ignore kekkers posts
Realest and truest advice
ye we should
yes, but also what fights have spread aoe cleave
it's salhadaar and then what
some moments on Alleria
dragons on mythic is also just not spread cleave
Dragons when your DKs and Vengeance DH is on vacation
ye..
You can hit both sides of adds on voracious
that's true
not if you're targeted by one
Just donβt be
I'm not gonna lie, Vorasius is so free on the adds that I just stay full ST on the fight
meld it off
and not on the first set
Send a few cheeky starfalls and keep hitting boss
cause the first set should ideally die all the way back
which is more than 80yds apart and out of your range
second boss and salhadaar
not that it matters anymore when the boss is a walkover
Convoke is just a bad raid talent then and we should only take it for egg phase dps on beloran
its the only good raid talent
no one is playing it on Lorrgs top 50 apart from on Beloran
does that make it bad
Well ur suppose to do both
its also not true?
if the best players arent using it? probably
recruitie plays 1m convoke every boss
Recruitie kinda mid
best players can be just as stupid as everyone else
top 50 lorrgs only tells you what nets you the most overall
big nob?
Doesnt even reroll to devourer..
that doesnt mean it is the best at helping your raid kill the boss
then how is it a dumb pleb like me meant to decide what to play xD
or the best for the average player to perform on that boss
don't overthink it
just take some shit
see what works
trial and error
Yea but he's a degenerate
who cares if you swap talents around every pull when your team is still wiping to the first 2 minutes worth of mechanics on a fight
true
on any hard boss the first day of prog is earmarked wiping to the first phases worth of mechanics
and theyre not a damage check
Ur minmaxing around like 3 talents that only effect a few presses instead of learning what u would prefer
so why not just change talents around and find out what works best for that fight and your team
there's only a few talents you actually swap
(manual shrooms goated btw, dont tell anyone else)
i spec out of foe miore and more
Mushroom more dam
cringe gcd
Pew pew
I mean Im not a good player so convoke probably as its so easy to play
on EC it's nice tho
Moonkin has like a ton of viable builds that can all perform close to each other
and the players go crazy cause there isnt a binary 1 choice fits all
its so funny
any tips on how to get this down 2 points..
since having actual choices is a good thing
its just lack of knowledge
Play better
why bother with foe
what are you trying to understand anyway
like do you want to know how specific talents work
if one hero talent is better than the other
what scenario you play what build
Like I said, it's not a one size fits all
you have to be specific
if you ask a blanket question "is convoke better?" you will get a blanket statement/answer
aka "depends"
LF anyone wanting to sit down and write talent explanations for compendium π
π
I play meteor storm for adds cuz Starfall is like an a-10 warthog.... Brrrrrrrerrrrrrrrttt
yeah deffo, will make sure im clearer with my questions
Grimzzy if u saw this. Would u think that dh was padding
The only ethical people here are the locks prob
no idea how DH work
is the boomkin starfalling
Yes
if so then yeah hes a filthy padder
One is boss one is adds
Logically, you assign the classes who gain dps from killing the adds, or lose the least
and you go down in order till they die
having as few people as required to kill them consintantly
Logically u kill the adds and change ur talents when they stop being a problem
Move pots around
Boomkin has CDs for every set
so yeah maybe boomkin would be high on that list of people that lose the least from it
so they should be doing it
I have no fucking clue
becuaase how do you know that
I can also move my pot to either first set or 2nd and still have up for lust p3
Well true, but is about looking into the fight. Like hunters playing mm
how do you mean looking into the fight?
Looking at logs of classes and kills that are similar comp structure and then seeing what people do and how they play
@dull dust u think preheat was playing fire cuz it was better ST or
That makes sense, but also the overall dmg check on the boss is nonexistant outside of Phase 1
it was for adds mate
so why not just have people sac some ST and make sure adds die consistently

ye i mean its good for that
we are swapping a bm for mm cause we dont have add dmg

so for sure something u can do me thinks
id tell my mage to go fire but insecure and carrying seed and thats ok
comfort on seed better
vro leave me alone
Fire is naturally good seed holder cause of caut or?
Not saying it's worth for your guy to go fire tho just a blanket question
eh
yea but u have like
2block 2barr
on frost
but yea on paper yes
caut goog
Yeah more on-demand defensives for frost for sure
Gonna propaganda cotti into playing wild mushroom
Was gonna ask is it just a comfort/mobility thing
Like most mages haven't played frost in years
Fire more mobile easier to play maybe
@dull dust ask mage person
Allo please respond
I dont think you struggle with mobility spamming ice lance
yea but uve played frost the whole tier?
in bust its easy fb pyro
out of bust is more esoteric
frost more mobile in general
?
XD
what is this btw
π
Yezzir
Sure I played fire all of undermine eventually learned sure
yea same
I also didn't look into frost mages million cast icelance so now it doesn't make sense lol
Back to don't understand just swap BM to mm territory
i mean yea thats why hes the only guy
that plays it
he was also arguing
caut gooder
but yea its just arguable
Hello question, on Myth Beloren, do you SFall birds and eggs or you just ST your one ?
Starfall generally
I just Starsurge one of the eggs so the bird doesn't push early
but you probably do more overall dam if you Starfall when birds or eggs are up
So basically depends on timers
eh sure but also not really
you're always gonna end up stopping DPS on that fight
think guilds play some different timers on when they push into 2nd egg phase
by now most people probably do 2m push instead of 3m
I think you still want 3min
that stretch is the most stressful part of the fight imo
3m would depend on having an ele sham no?
yeah maybe
Correct
They do like absurd dps on egg
youd also have to probably send some more CDs in p2 to make the 2m phase
which could be less dmg on egg depending which CD it is
Sure, just implies every guild 300+ has an ele
Eventually they probably swap to 2m asc
Wonder when someone will 1 phase
we were discussing doing 2m phase when we were like 40 pulls in or something
And 3min only ever really matter in a situation where you have ele
idk how much it wouldve changed things tbh
if ele goes 2m then we'd send PI on someone else
So it shouldnt be part of the discussion if you move the goalpost
and maybe make back dmg
but wasn't rly worth trying it in case it failed when 3m was more of a sure thing
which settings do you use when siming on raidbots for higher dungeons? i want to avoid going through specific routes with guru
well u would want to use a route on guru to sim dungeons
theres not some default setting to sim dungeons
i see. im back to boomkin after a far too big break and im not familiar with guru
Do you guys ever wonder if simc and raidbots is what Paul Atreides was warning us about? Thinking machines ruling over us with an iron fistβ¦
ur not familiar with it but knew what it was?
ive never used it to sim, only to grab routes
ty!
whats my bis omnium folio rune
probably one that gives crit effect or mastery
Sheesh, watch them all be defensive
All open world only
do i use my bonus rolls on nexus?
It says against void, so if the sporefall boss isn't void,.....
If u don't have vaelgors prob not
Hi guys ! I hope you are doing well
Just a quick question! I look at WL for build on belo Mm I saw lot of EC + convok seem good !
I wanted your opinion about that
Wish u a beautiful day
ec big dam in egg window
Yeah we have 2 incarn + 1 convok
During try when I do it correctly I can do first incarn + concovok in and 2nd incarn
Between egg I feel less powerful π€·ββοΈ but egg damage are more important
thats fine
egg damage is all that matters
p1 is mechanical failure
p2 is dps race
do the mechanics, burst the dps
EC is the choice for that here
I see β¦ thank you !!
the real fun part is, if you dont want to, you dont have to
you squeezing out an extra 10% dam minmaxing will not be the cause of you killing the boss or not
but what if boss lives at 0%..
then someone in your raid needed to just play better

probably the devourers
just crit more
get more ele shamans really
make innervate balance druid only
Question about vanguard talents: Is there a reason to take Stellar Amplifcation over Nature's Grace?
Nvm that's assuming they will be grouped all the time I guess
Could someone please help explain Starfall? Do you spam it?
Ng kinda beans
"stacks multiple times"
Ah so its a spamable ability. Thanks alot!
yeah so basically Starfall Calls down waves of falling stars upon enemies within 40 yds, dealing [9 * (25.3% of Spell Power)] Astral damage over 8 sec. Multiple uses of this ability may overlap. [Aetherial Kindling: Extends the duration of active Moonfires and Sunfires by 3 sec]
Thank you kindly!
is this correct in raidbots? crafted items will upgrade to 295 and not 294?
yeah probably
yes
thanks team
crafted items go +10 and other items go +9
you probably dont have any crafted items to spend it on whenever the system comes out tho i think
maybe if you use off-hand with hunt instead of 2x arcanoweave
but unsure whether hunt scales off ilvl
i know arcanoweave does but only weapons and trinkets are eligible to upgrade anyway
Week after next
talk to decimus and he says how many more things he needs to make the hammer
takes 4 weeks ye
Wait
presumably when the hammer finishes you start getting the voidcore items from any content
decimus is really slow at blacksmithing
but who knows
May 13
didnt spend any of his KP
everything was untested anyway
maybe using one of the items actually makes it scale to manaforge ilvl numbers
i wouldnt be surprised
saying same thing i said for bonus rolls, this shit is untested so you could be better off avoiding interacting with it until the bugs are fixed
this entire patch was vibe coded
Hey deux may 13th just in case you didnβt see my message before
π₯Ή
you donβt have to thank me Iβm just doin my job
Hey fellas birdo. Is there a way to input "fully stacked AP" on raidbot ?
Is there a way to sim what buff to take in Algethar Academy?
https://www.github.com/simulationcraft/simc/wiki/ExpansionOptions if there are it's in here
hey, so i'm just messing around with an alt boomie, i havn't touched it since I used it for splits. Has the recommended rotation on the compendium changed since then? I could have sworn it said to - in a KOTG opener - go into an ecipise first and spender your asendant stacks before going into incarn, but what i'm seeing here seems way simpler, just to kinda dot and go
did it change or am i completely misremembering what I read at the start of the season
it's changed mostly because doing a 16 step opener is not something you can do for every boss
and its annoying
ok, thats fine, i'm not griping, i just wanted to make sure I wasn't misremebering something important
druid.initial_astral_power=100
Depending on what ur doing that number can change, that's not 100% it's 100asp.
Also it resets to 50 if ur running NB
you now have to spend 2 eclipse charges and at least 14 wraths...
Thank you vm
allo
preheat played fire because his item craft bugged out and what he had left was better for fire
and he figured it it felt p good for adds so he just kept playing it

Lol
when are they going to buff boomkin
just a little bit to starfire and wrath would be nice
hits like dry noodle
not even wet pool noodle
wouldnt u wrather ur spenders do damage
i would, but also that may be like asking santa for a PS5 and the new Xbox
ask small... get 30% to builders
enjoy
u know... i dont like you
spec is fun? 
spec is good? 
spec is S tier? 
buff builders by 30?
spec is fun? 
spec is good? 
spec is S tier? 
idk why youd wanna take the fun away
always resorting to QELive for this .. and at least according to that, it does not
u dont like it?
dreamburst should just proc on starsurge too
yes
but waaay way back i was trying to make the sim force spend all dream burst stacks
even if you get a proc
no i have idea for redesign
idk about better
make the treeants autos proc the explosion
and if you look at specs across Midnight they seem to love procs that change icons and spell IDs of some spells
feral
gonna make dremasurge get proc'd by surge and then were gonna be surging at 8t again
why isn't dream surge "using force of nature transforms your Starsurge into Dream Surge, making it do additional Nature damage to nearby targets capped to 5"
so like
basically same as it does now
but is consumed by spender instead of builder
lowkey would like it to be some kinda payoff tho
Honestly should just remove Force of Nature as a damage CD or make it a cycling proc ala Diabolist warlock
like the manaforge tier set
thats asking for too much
instead of just here is another deterministic dmg thing
they cast moonfire
they do cast spells
but detaching it from builders for sure better
mine just run in and slap lol
that window is far too congested / contended
they still cast moonfire
its not as noticeable anymore i guess since it doesnt gen AP
speaking of .. can we riot that they bricked twin moons working for trees?
yeah i guess it doesnt hm
i could've seen the 4th moonfire and assumed it was twin moons
but its bounteous bloom treant
that makes sense, yeah
might have been intentional when they made the moonfire not give AP
probably more modifiers taken off it
hm
at least they never said so anywhere
need to double check if treant moonfires give shooting star
and i feel like its part of the appeal for kotg in aoe
yeah they just said about the AP stuff during beta
ngl i like pushing one hero talent towards prio damage
makes the choice interesting
if shooting stars wasnt on piss random targets the starweaver prio dam would be good
true
okay treant moonfires proc shooting stars
and star cascade
but like .. you are saying you like one of them being more prio
only you want it on the one you like to play
hmmm
dsune's word still ring true
2 years later
"what are you gonna do? just Starfire all the time?"
guy is an oracle
also crazy to think the first version of Lunar Calling was 40%
and by end of TWW it was 160%


new hero talents when
is moonkin among the specs who have gotten the least changes to their hero talents
not sure
i think it is but i'm not well versed enough in all the hero talent choices..
but it would be more fun if they completely do new hero talents but yeah
evergreen content ecksdee
yeah for sure
give me druid of the flame
insane we killed tindral and then ignored his whole schtick
if you consider that ours were one of the first
and didnt get much iteration early on
probably?
i think they only replaced 1 talent from our hero trees between blizzcon and tww release
and it was the only spender point in keeper
they locked that shit in real early
ur gonna delete hero talents and were gonna just as shit dont worry
cant wait for the last titan
to have no real changes to hero talents
and we'l get uber talents
ontop of apex

was surprised to find out apex talents arent a 3rd talent
we'll just get super hero talents 
wonder which if any hero talents got the most changes
dark ranger as well for hunter got a bunch of stuff iirc
everyone but druid is a safe bet
is the 4th branch new?
I cant even tell
warrior didnt get shit

no way sporefall flex loot is randomised
vers/crit bracers enter the room
what trinkets are people using for mythic plus, I have a Heroic final stare and a heroic Locus walker, but thinking Locus could be really bad in M+ as the buff falls of between pulls, does anyone know if it is worth keeping or would you targeting a different trinket
Am i bad or are we squishy on Paladins? I feel really squishy
it might feel that way at the start of ur healers figuring out how to press their buttons
but no
hotw 2:24 and 5:04... bark for fun
Were on reclear π Without a defensive on some sacred tolls im dead and because Avengers shield hates me it usually means bear form often
tell your healers to press their buttons better
Barkskin is enough but its on CD often
ur on reclear and they cant heal not poggers
what would you target farm over heroic Locus-Walker, I guess just heart of wind
prob
cheers
ur not using resto hotw dawg
u can sit in hotw bear form if ur scared
or u can pre hotw the hit and go back to dps
sort of wish frenzied regen worked out of bear
already have the bear tax going into it
Will 12.0.7 have a tuning? I donβt feel there will be one
tuning probably not, but class changes might be
they didnt really do any class changes in .5 or .7 patches in TWW outside of 11.0.5 and some visual stuff iirc
ya it's just power creep + single boss
and the 11.0.5 one was just stuff they didnt have time to push in beta, like hail of stars etc
12.1 for new stuff
can also argue the 12.0.5 stuff we got last week were also just class changes they didnt have time to do in beta
So we are where we stand right now and will be like this until 12.1

Canβt be worse anymore
why do u think were bad
Weβre in a good spot
I can't wait for them to buff devourer in the next major patch
Also we are in a good spot for the current raid design we could be bad if it's more st focused next tier which is likely
only issue is you'll be playing convoke
i guess 1m convoke is a little more fun than what we did in the past tho

did i hear ec?

just plant and pump
ec AA gogogoog
btw, the character string didnt have the crit dmg enchants .. hoooly
add crit flask while ur at it
could be worse
could be most other specs where one of their hero trees makes u do less then tanks
is there any reason to take a mythic 2h over a mythic 1 h and crafted OH, they sim the same
you mean like the hero tree frost mage vs hero tree arcane mage
i crashed out a ton already about it
i just moved onto a diff class where hes kinda stuck

i have 289 feather and 289 stare but no other trinkets (not even heroic gaze) is double on use ever the play ?
it always sims higher lol xd
Reckless potion + mastery flask isnβt better?
Based what I found in Chinese forum
probably ok in m+ but too much of a headache in raid imo
But u have to make crit way higher than mastery first
Hey guys! I'm rying to get into balance a bit and ive done some keys and i think im grasping the concept pretty smoothly, but for raid i checked wowhead and there were some more nuance to it there with CD timings and the fact that we play keeper there and whatnot, it's just seemed like a bit much. Am I overthinking it? I feel like it's easy and it should come with time, at least the CD usage part
I always thought balance was straight forward, but i guess there is some minmaxing to it
Check compendium in the channel header might go more in depth the. What you were looking for in wowhead
feels good to me, causes dreamburst pops on the adds
and on 3 add sets can rng 2 full moons as well from 1m voke
will do, thanks!
And for keeper the tldr is that you want to align all the cds together. Best to use the planner or copy another good log and have it as a note to get reminded
how im understanding it is you wanna use trees with celestial everytime
yeah ok so trees convoke and celestial together and inbetween those big cds normal eclipses until its all back together so ucan line them again
yeah ok
thats why we're holding 1 charge of incarn for when trees are up again
i assume
makes sense
you never convoke without trees and at least eclipse (upgrades to never without ca/incarn if you play 2min convoke)
yes. but after the first 3 trees, ca/incarn wont be up again in time .. so you will have to send one with eclipse
yeah basically all cds together, seems fairly reasonable
ah ok
So are we still kotg raid EC m+? EC seems to be doing better ST than kotg
seems
we looking at sims and drawing conclusions or
make it work

the gear compare in simc
can i ask why there is a starfire before incarn on the opener for elunes chosen in the compendium?
free damage
ok also @jolly delta im doing better today π thx for the help π
Glad to hear! You're welcome
Just to be clear, since it has cast time it's just free damage that you can send prepull
yeah went from dead last in damage to top 4 almost every pull
crazy what reading and askign questions can do
theres always been that, its precasting for free damage
theres wraths before that too
Im looking at Mythic Keys and see most Bommies running Elune. I've tried a 3 builds and the suggested rotations but i have yet to out DPS the SBA build i got from Davlin
The rotation i've had the best DPS with is "Moon fire, Sunfire, Incarnation, Fury of Elune, Starfall and spaming Starfire
idk what SBA or Davlin is
idk what sba is
Single Button Assist
this is almost correct though
FoE before incarn
gj buddy
but also if someone is using the single button rotation it doesnt really matter right...
i did my job 16.19m to egg
at ilvl 261 im doing about 68-74K with the Dvalin SBA build. With the build and rotation i got from Murlok im doing about the same, just a tad less. 62-68K. Any suggestions? Thats without popping trinkets
If you truly want to improve, you should read an actual guide and probably log your runs and post them to get feedback
