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 I’m doing AoE most of the time, I don’t really care about the free Starsurge β€” I’d rather have Starfall hit harder. Am I missing something? πŸ˜„

jaunty blaze
#

Procs are fun

elfin beacon
#

thats it? xD

jaunty blaze
#

Yes

tawny nest
#

I think it’s better in single target or smth
And gets benefit from tier set

jaunty blaze
#

You can argue it's better prio damage

round field
#

Prio dmg is for losers

#

gotta top details

elfin beacon
#

xD

tawny nest
#

Just feels a lot better to play too imo

jaunty blaze
#

Just get more procs

#

Easy more dmgur

elfin beacon
#

ok I'll try this. thx πŸ™‚

Very susge

livid jay
#

idk i really got bored of these weaver procs and reacting to them got quite annoying now

#

just playing rattle in keys now

round field
#

i too hate when my spec is more fun and interactive

livid jay
#

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

round field
#

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

ruby badger
#

I just don't like pressing starsurge in big target counts / munching that proc

#

In raid though love starweaver

livid jay
#

weaver on dragons feels ass

#

(if u wanna pad)

#

weaver haters overlapping with frenzy haters

#

coincidence?

#

i think not

livid jay
#

i liked frenzy

round field
#

ur lying

jaunty blaze
round field
#

lowkey

#

frenzy is back in the game anways

#

dev dh scratches the frenzy itch

livid jay
#

bis boomkin was tww prepatch with new talents so we had pulsar which triggered syzygy

#

that was some dopamine

round field
#

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

jaunty blaze
#

Can't have fun in this god forsaken videogame

round field
#

Fun detected stop

livid jay
#

it was absurd amounts of damage πŸ˜„

#

but i think it would have also been fun wiht less damage

#

too hard for nowadays philosophy tho

round field
#

i genuinely dont think so tbh

#

venthyr wasnt that hard

#

you needed to not be afk

livid jay
#

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

no way bloodtalon bar died after 5k hours

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+??

round field
#

ignorance not excused

jaunty blaze
#

You can play either

livid jay
#

same question was asked here

#

maybe the following messaged help you

royal zenith
#

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

mental zephyr
#

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

livid jay
#

have you used raidbots before?

mental zephyr
#

not yet just icy veins wowhead and archon

livid jay
#

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.

mental zephyr
#

simc version on weekly? or latest

livid jay
#

Doesnt really matter

mental zephyr
#

how do he tell me what to craft

livid jay
#

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

mental zephyr
#

okey i gonna try that thx man

livid jay
#

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

craggy sonnet
# mental zephyr okey i gonna try that thx man

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

livid jay
#

yea u cant even do topgear without that it just comes up with explanation when u press topgear

pliant tiger
#

is there a way to macro hotw with bearform?

livid jay
#

not in one button press cause bear form triggers a global cooldown

celest rampart
#

are we just not using convoke at all now in raids?

livid jay
#

using it on mythic bird

celest rampart
#

going through lorrgs.io and none is taking or use convoke like t all

#

thats it yeah bird

livid jay
#

yea everything else has cringe add pad

celest rampart
#

why on bird, what makesi it useful on bird?

livid jay
#

massive brust damage

#

in egg window

celest rampart
#

ahh yeah ofc

livid jay
#

burst*

celest rampart
#

so we just taking elune to padd dmg on adds

livid jay
#

nah

#

adds dont live ling enough

#

its cringe keeper weaver add pad with sometimes taking the talent that makes your starfall tick faster

jaunty blaze
#

You can also play ethical convoke on saladar

livid jay
#

if your orbs are dying sure

jaunty blaze
#

Dunno got bored competing for orb dmg

livid jay
#

really

#

in our raid we always need more orb dmg

jaunty blaze
#

Ethical raid

livid jay
#

nah

#

3 healthbars are not enough to trigger the padders

lofty depot
royal zenith
#

everything we do is padding

#

that's balance druid

#

regardless of hero spec!!

celest rampart
round field
#

theres nothing to do in the raid other than pad anyways

royal zenith

well you can try and kill bosses iqni

I know that's a weird concept for you..

In cosmos raid?

there's not much to make fun of in my case

craggy sonnet

I played convoke

craggy sonnet
#

Oh

lofty depot
#

There's a few degens playing incarn

royal zenith
#

it's better damage..

craggy sonnet
#

Wth, not even following your own sim

royal zenith
#

but probably movement kinda ass

lofty depot
#

I wasn't getting pi at the start

#

And yea movement during pie is fucked

round field
#

if its better damage why is no one in top 100 with it...

lofty depot
#

Wouldn't try that shit

royal zenith
round field
#

because its bad for u...

lofty depot
#

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

royal zenith
#

if working out is good for you, why does it wear out your body?

round field

no it doesnt

royal zenith

yes, it does

it only does if ur built like a lil bitch

There's some uhh weird temperature thing

celest rampart
#

DOH

round field
#

convoke kinda dookie poopoo with how much aoe is in the raid

lofty depot
#

Funny wowhead talents said convoke and 1m and no one looks past that to see actual fight talents

#

Down with the wowhead writer

celest rampart
#

and now looking into specs we are playing

lofty depot
#

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

round field
#

but why is wowhead spreading misinformation then..

craggy sonnet
#

cause who cares about padding add dmg in heroic

lofty depot
#

Its not like the build doesn't do damage or u can't do damage.

lucid olive
celest rampart
lofty depot
#

So it's not misinformation, it's just an easy indicator that they didn't look at logs

celest rampart
#

Like where do we stand

fossil hemlock
#

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

royal zenith
#

there's no one-size fits all this tier

lofty depot
#

U go to warcraft logs and u copy the build for what ur doing

lucid olive
celest rampart
lofty depot
#

No

#

Well what u mean terrible

celest rampart
lofty depot
#

U think it's hard, or u think we're bad at it

#

Why is it bad?

celest rampart
#

the word padding is negative no?

royal zenith
#

it's literally called padding

fossil hemlock
#

Define padding in this case

lofty depot
#

Why is it negative

#

What the helly

royal zenith
#

it's not called "killing smallies with zero hp"

#

it's called padding

lofty depot
#

Propaganda man

royal zenith
#

thoughts

livid jay
#

padding is negative imo cause imo it means u do damage thats not needed to up your number

celest rampart
#

wait ill define it

fossil hemlock
lofty depot
#

But its padding

livid jay
#

no its not padding if its needed

royal zenith
#

it's still padding

livid jay
#

ok

lofty depot
#

Ok so what's padding in the raid if it's not needed

celest rampart
#

this may be wrong, but to me "padding" is doing damaege that isnt needed to PAD your own dps numbers

royal zenith
#

cause your spec is SHIT at killing the small orbs

fossil hemlock
#

Padding is just going out of your way to overkill something that passive damage could have killed

lofty depot
celest rampart
#

so as an example doing dmg to adds when your class is bad at it and its not needed

royal zenith
#

if you have one balance druid focusing all his efforts into the small orbs, you'd be done tomorrow

#

with killing the boss

#

thoughts?

lofty depot
livid jay
#

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

celest rampart
#

if other classes lose less dps than us or gain dps

royal zenith
lofty depot
#

What makes u think I do less damage?

royal zenith
#

so that kinda proves my point

#

if we were good for killing smallies, we would get stacked this raid

#

thoughts??

celest rampart
lofty depot
#

I am my class

celest rampart
#

Like I don't know anything really about what classes are good at what

livid jay
celest rampart
#

we lose single target when we aoe, and other classes, gain dmg or lose less

royal zenith
#

therefore

#

it's padding

livid jay
#

ye

celest rampart
#

so they should be killing adds

royal zenith
#

and arctic is wrong

lucid olive
royal zenith
lucid olive
#

grass = green

royal zenith
#

truee

lofty depot
celest rampart
#

and if we dont have the dps to kill adds then more less efficent classes should do it

livid jay
#

i jumped into this convo and im gonna jump out agian bb

drifting nova

real council fight when

lofty depot
royal zenith

"hey guys we can pad without losing the minimal boss damage we do, isn't that epic?"

no...

celest rampart

which is why im posting here

drifting nova
#

bold move

#

lets see how it plays out

lofty depot
#

Well u have preconceived assumptions for some reason

royal zenith
#

poor grimzzy

lofty depot
#

U assume we're bad at it

drifting nova
#

a single word in here

#

reduces damage by 50%

lofty depot
#

And idk why

royal zenith
#

I don't think he's assuming anything he's just trying to understand

celest rampart
#

not that we are bad

#

I guess its the same thing

drifting nova
#

what we really need

#

is to turn into asol from league

royal zenith
#

is god

drifting nova
#

with moons floating around us

royal zenith
#

oh

fossil hemlock
#

Arctic do you use meteor storm on dragons?

drifting nova
#

and we can manipulate them

royal zenith
#

meteor storm is good on saladbar

#

go

crude cargo
#

can i get an amen

fossil hemlock
#

Meteor storm is the definition of a pad talent

lofty depot
fossil hemlock
#

You lose boss damage to do add damage faster

drifting nova
#

meteor what now

fossil hemlock
celest rampart
royal zenith
#

sorry I meant meteorites..

lofty depot
drifting nova
#

tf you mean pad talent

#

starfall without it

#

is giga dog

#

14 business days to do damage

#

if anything it should be passive

lofty depot
#

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

fossil hemlock
royal zenith
#

theoratically you also have to use extra gcd's to redot

#

if you play meteor storm

drifting nova
#

(not that I did)

lofty depot
#

Mmhm mmhm

fossil hemlock
celest rampart
royal zenith
#

is that why you play manual shrooms too

lofty depot
#

Good at padding

royal zenith
#

cause there's sooooo much movement

fossil hemlock
lofty depot
royal zenith
#

(maximum 5 yards of moving)

#

(wildcharging out of tether woowww)

lofty depot
#

Well there's tether right

#

So I need to move back after wild charginf

#

Mmhm mmhm

#

A lot of movement, hard fight

lucid olive
#

why

#

what tether are you moving back on

lofty depot
#

So my DK can grip them silly

celest rampart
fossil hemlock
#

Can't believe we're entertaining Arctics excuse for wanting to pad

#

If you want to pad, just pad

lofty depot
#

πŸ™‚

lucid olive
#

i read tether and thought alleria

lofty depot
#

I do and I will

lucid olive
#

why are we talking about a 3rd boss

lofty depot
lucid olive
#

its the 2nd month of the tier

lofty depot
#

can pad on alleria too

#

Lock that in

lucid olive
#

yeah lets minmax the boss you kill in 3 minutes

lofty depot
#

Who's killing dragon in 3min

#

Ain't no way

lucid olive
#

worry about killing lura instead

lofty depot
#

I am, with wild mushroom

mint cosmos
#

does solar beam kick all three adds on mythic lura?

lofty depot
#

Lock that in

#

No

mint cosmos
#

thank you

tender elbow
royal zenith
drifting nova
royal zenith
#

even though Im against padding

lucid olive
royal zenith
#

this tier it matters so little for balance druid

lucid olive
#

it's the same usefulness as all the other kicks are on that boss

fossil hemlock
lucid olive
#

if you're assigned a kick and nobody steals it you have kick back up for next round of the mechanic

fossil hemlock
#

If your raid doesn't have hands then bursting down adds on saladbar or dragons isn't awful

lofty depot
lucid olive
#

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

celest rampart
drifting nova

lucid olive
#

arctic will mental gymnastics for hours to justify being unethical

fossil hemlock
lucid olive
#

do not engage

celest rampart
drifting nova
#

only white names speak sense, orange and green are fake

royal zenith
#

technically we are not really good this tier

#

we just do decent damage

celest rampart
drifting nova
#

really doesnt help rotato is booty

fossil hemlock
#

Are you still mad about eclipse being a button?

lucid olive
fossil hemlock
#

Yes

lucid olive
#

don't get baited

#

not worth it

celest rampart
#

Ok so we are good at spread aoe cleave and we should lean into that on fights with spread aoe cleave

lucid olive
#

just ignore kekkers posts

fossil hemlock
#

Realest and truest advice

lucid olive
#

it's salhadaar and then what

#

some moments on Alleria

royal zenith
#

dragons on mythic is also just not spread cleave

fossil hemlock
#

Dragons when your DKs and Vengeance DH is on vacation

royal zenith
#

ye..

tawny nest
#

You can hit both sides of adds on voracious

royal zenith
#

that's true

lucid olive
#

not if you're targeted by one

tawny nest
#

Just don’t be

fossil hemlock
royal zenith
#

meld it off

lucid olive
#

and not on the first set

fossil hemlock
#

Send a few cheeky starfalls and keep hitting boss

lucid olive
#

cause the first set should ideally die all the way back

#

which is more than 80yds apart and out of your range

celest rampart
lucid olive
#

not that it matters anymore when the boss is a walkover

celest rampart
#

Convoke is just a bad raid talent then and we should only take it for egg phase dps on beloran

lucid olive
#

no

#

convoke is good

drifting nova
#

its the only good raid talent

lofty depot
#

I said that

#

Mmhm mmhm

celest rampart
lucid olive
lucid olive
#

its also not true?

celest rampart

recruitie plays 1m convoke every boss

celest rampart

yes yes not the best

Recruitie kinda mid

craggy sonnet

craggy sonnet

that doesnt mean it is the best at helping your raid kill the boss

celest rampart
craggy sonnet
#

or the best for the average player to perform on that boss

lucid olive
#

just take some shit

#

see what works

#

trial and error

lofty depot
lucid olive
#

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

lucid olive
#

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

lofty depot
lucid olive
#

so why not just change talents around and find out what works best for that fight and your team

royal zenith
#

there's only a few talents you actually swap

#

(manual shrooms goated btw, dont tell anyone else)

lucid olive
#

manual shrooms good but i hate it with FoE

#

FoE prob bad though so who cares

lofty depot

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

royal zenith

any tips on how to get this down 2 points..

lucid olive

since having actual choices is a good thing

celest rampart
craggy sonnet
lofty depot
craggy sonnet
#

why bother with foe

royal zenith
#

yeah foe is ass

#

stinky

royal zenith
#

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"

lucid olive
#

LF anyone wanting to sit down and write talent explanations for compendium πŸ™‚

lofty depot
#

He wants to pad, but not feel bad about it

#

I'm here to help

lofty depot

I play meteor storm for adds cuz Starfall is like an a-10 warthog.... Brrrrrrrerrrrrrrrttt

celest rampart
lofty depot
#

Grimzzy if u saw this. Would u think that dh was padding

#

The only ethical people here are the locks prob

celest rampart
#

is the boomkin starfalling

lofty depot
#

Yes

celest rampart
#

if so then yeah hes a filthy padder

lofty depot
#

The adds need to die before castbar go off

#

That's not true

royal zenith
#

"all npcs" -> shows garyeet

#

sounds about right

celest rampart
#

this is matrix no?

#

not the adds

#

ohh excluded xD

lofty depot
#

One is boss one is adds

lofty depot
#

Hehe

celest rampart
#

and you go down in order till they die

#

having as few people as required to kill them consintantly

lofty depot
#

Logically u kill the adds and change ur talents when they stop being a problem

#

Move pots around

#

Boomkin has CDs for every set

celest rampart
#

so they should be doing it

#

I have no fucking clue

#

becuaase how do you know that

lofty depot
#

I can also move my pot to either first set or 2nd and still have up for lust p3

lofty depot
celest rampart
lofty depot
#

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

lucid olive
lucid olive
#

so why not just have people sac some ST and make sure adds die consistently

lofty depot
vale pebble
#

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

lofty depot
#

Is curious

#

Cuz yea I think it's the difference between essentially 0 and that

vale pebble
#

id tell my mage to go fire but insecure and carrying seed and thats ok

#

comfort on seed better

lofty depot

Tough seed carrier

#

Jeez chicken always changing roles

#

Not saying it's worth for your guy to go fire tho just a blanket question

vale pebble
#

yea but u have like

#

2block 2barr

#

on frost

#

but yea on paper yes

#

caut goog

lucid olive
#

Yeah more on-demand defensives for frost for sure

vale pebble
#

but also u dont rly die?

#

with seed

#

u blow it up more?

lofty depot
#

Gonna propaganda cotti into playing wild mushroom

vale pebble
#

i thinks?

#

u cant

#

gl

#

ive been trying that the whole tier

lofty depot
#

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

royal zenith
#

I dont think you struggle with mobility spamming ice lance

vale pebble
#

in bust its easy fb pyro

#

out of bust is more esoteric

#

frost more mobile in general

#

?

what is this btw

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

he was also arguing

but yea its just arguable

inner plover
#

Hello question, on Myth Beloren, do you SFall birds and eggs or you just ST your one ?

lofty depot
#

Starfall generally

lucid olive
#

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

lofty depot
#

Do that on third set, I be spamming wrarh

#

Should move boss, never do

inner plover
#

So basically depends on timers

lucid olive
#

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

lofty depot
#

We waited for quills to come out

#

Which always seemed sus

lucid olive
#

we pushed boss after the 3rd soak in p2

#

but it did get quills off

royal zenith
#

I think you still want 3min

lucid olive
#

that stretch is the most stressful part of the fight imo

royal zenith
#

Especially if groups have worse dps

#

But depends

lofty depot
#

3m would depend on having an ele sham no?

lucid olive
#

yeah maybe

royal zenith
#

They do like absurd dps on egg

lucid olive
#

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

lofty depot
#

Sure, just implies every guild 300+ has an ele

#

Eventually they probably swap to 2m asc

royal zenith
#

Eventually ye

#

We’re talking rn

lofty depot
#

Wonder when someone will 1 phase

lucid olive
#

we were discussing doing 2m phase when we were like 40 pulls in or something

royal zenith
#

And 3min only ever really matter in a situation where you have ele

lucid olive
#

idk how much it wouldve changed things tbh

#

if ele goes 2m then we'd send PI on someone else

royal zenith
#

So it shouldnt be part of the discussion if you move the goalpost

lucid olive
#

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

lofty depot
#

well u would want to use a route on guru to sim dungeons

#

theres not some default setting to sim dungeons

golden narwhal
#

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 fist…

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

dense steeple
#

ec big dam in egg window

edgy quarry
#

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 πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ but egg damage are more important

dense steeple
#

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

edgy quarry
#

I see … thank you !!

dense steeple
#

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

round field
#

but what if boss lives at 0%..

dense steeple
#

then someone in your raid needed to just play better

round field
dense steeple
#

probably the devourers

drifting nova
#

just crit more

exotic perch
#

get more ele shamans really

drifting nova
#

bring back spec buffs

#

thats the solution

royal zenith
#

make innervate balance druid only

drifting nova
#

bring back the spell crit

Question about vanguard talents: Is there a reason to take Stellar Amplifcation over Nature's Grace?

covert coyote
#

is this correct in raidbots? crafted items will upgrade to 295 and not 294?

covert coyote
#

thanks team

lucid olive
#

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

royal zenith
#

when do we get upgrade shit actually?

#

Im so not in the know..

eager raft
#

Week after next

lucid olive
#

talk to decimus and he says how many more things he needs to make the hammer

exotic perch
#

takes 4 weeks ye

eager raft
#

Wait

lucid olive
#

presumably when the hammer finishes you start getting the voidcore items from any content

exotic perch
#

decimus is really slow at blacksmithing

lucid olive
#

but who knows

eager raft
#

May 13

exotic perch
#

didnt spend any of his KP

lucid olive
#

everything was untested anyway

#

maybe using one of the items actually makes it scale to manaforge ilvl numbers

exotic perch
#

i wouldnt be surprised

lucid olive
#

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 fellas birdo. Is there a way to input "fully stacked AP" on raidbot ?

clever heart
#

Is there a way to sim what buff to take in Algethar Academy?

dry heron
#

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

lucid olive
#

and its annoying

dry heron
#

ok, thats fine, i'm not griping, i just wanted to make sure I wasn't misremebering something important

lofty depot
#

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

royal zenith
#

you now have to spend 2 eclipse charges and at least 14 wraths...

dull dust

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

lofty depot

Lol

wheat crown
#

when are they going to buff boomkin

lucid olive
#

sometime next season i think

#

spec doesnt rly need any buffs

wheat crown
#

just a little bit to starfire and wrath would be nice

#

hits like dry noodle

#

not even wet pool noodle

lofty depot
#

wouldnt u wrather ur spenders do damage

wheat crown
#

i would, but also that may be like asking santa for a PS5 and the new Xbox

#

ask small... get 30% to builders

#

enjoy

lofty depot
#

ur not getting that

#

but ur also not getting the ps5 and new xbox so theres that

wheat crown
#

u know... i dont like you

lucid olive
#

idk why youd wanna take the fun away

exotic perch
#

yeah playign ele shaman is real fun when tempest is insane dmg

#

where procs

craggy sonnet
dull dust
#

buff kotg explosion 300%

#

theres ur proc

#

dream burst

craggy sonnet
#

dude .. remove dream burst

#

wtf proc

#

there is no proc

dull dust
#

u dont like it?

exotic perch
#

dreamburst should just proc on starsurge too

dull dust
#

real

#

lowkey does starweaver nerf dream burst

craggy sonnet
#

yes

dull dust
#

u just get too lucky sometimes

#

but if it buffs surge its just another apex

craggy sonnet
#

but waaay way back i was trying to make the sim force spend all dream burst stacks

#

even if you get a proc

lucid olive
craggy sonnet
#

and it wasnt better

#

remove *current dream burst

dull dust
#

I think u could make dream burst a actual proc

#

and it would be better

craggy sonnet
#

idk about better

lucid olive
#

well you see

#

the talent is called dream surge

dull dust
#

make the treeants autos proc the explosion

craggy sonnet
#

bring back s3 surges

#

but better

lucid olive
#

and if you look at specs across Midnight they seem to love procs that change icons and spell IDs of some spells

dull dust
#

where

craggy sonnet
#

feral

lucid olive
#

uuh

#

havoc

#

devourer

#

bear

#

dull dust
#

all specs i dont play

#

unluggi

#

I guess glacial yea

#

ok continue the cook

lofty depot
#

gonna make dremasurge get proc'd by surge and then were gonna be surging at 8t again

dull dust
#

dream surge makes starsurge hit 8t

#

splitting

lucid olive
#

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

craggy sonnet
#

lowkey would like it to be some kinda payoff tho

lucid olive
#

Honestly should just remove Force of Nature as a damage CD or make it a cycling proc ala Diabolist warlock

craggy sonnet
#

like the manaforge tier set

lucid olive
#

thats asking for too much

wheat crown
#

i want my damn trees to cast spells

#

like the rdruids get

craggy sonnet
#

instead of just here is another deterministic dmg thing

lucid olive
lofty depot
craggy sonnet
#

but detaching it from builders for sure better

wheat crown
#

mine just run in and slap lol

craggy sonnet
#

that window is far too congested / contended

lucid olive
#

its not as noticeable anymore i guess since it doesnt gen AP

craggy sonnet
#

speaking of .. can we riot that they bricked twin moons working for trees?

lucid olive
#

yeah idk what happened there

#

just seems inconsistent

craggy sonnet
#

you mean its working sometime?

#

cause i couldnt get it to do so

lucid olive
#

yeah i guess it doesnt hm

#

i could've seen the 4th moonfire and assumed it was twin moons

#

but its bounteous bloom treant

craggy sonnet
#

that makes sense, yeah

lucid olive
#

might have been intentional when they made the moonfire not give AP

#

probably more modifiers taken off it

#

hm

craggy sonnet
#

at least they never said so anywhere

lucid olive
#

need to double check if treant moonfires give shooting star

craggy sonnet
#

and i feel like its part of the appeal for kotg in aoe

lucid olive
dull dust
#

makes the choice interesting

lucid olive
#

if shooting stars wasnt on piss random targets the starweaver prio dam would be good

dull dust
#

true

lucid olive
#

okay treant moonfires proc shooting stars

dull dust
#

ec actually does a decent bit more prio last i looked

#

lunar calling is a mistake

craggy sonnet
#

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

dull dust
#

i might just like kotg

lucid olive
#

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%

dull dust
royal zenith
#

new hero talents when

lucid olive
#

is moonkin among the specs who have gotten the least changes to their hero talents

royal zenith
#

not sure

lucid olive
#

i think it is but i'm not well versed enough in all the hero talent choices..

royal zenith
#

but it would be more fun if they completely do new hero talents but yeah

#

evergreen content ecksdee

lucid olive
#

yeah for sure

#

give me druid of the flame

#

insane we killed tindral and then ignored his whole schtick

craggy sonnet
#

if you consider that ours were one of the first

#

and didnt get much iteration early on

#

probably?

lucid olive
#

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

craggy sonnet
#

they locked that shit in real early

lofty depot
#

ur gonna delete hero talents and were gonna just as shit dont worry

drifting nova
#

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

delicate perch
#

we'll just get super hero talents WICKED

drifting nova
#

wonder which if any hero talents got the most changes

craggy sonnet
#

i think they reworked rogue stuff at least 3 times

#

hunter as well

drifting nova
#

I dont even know whats in the 4th branch

#

1% X stat > the new hero talents

lucid olive
craggy sonnet
#

pack leader as well

#

got reworked probably 2 times

delicate perch
#

everyone but druid is a safe bet

drifting nova

is the 4th branch new?

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

lofty depot

u would likely target gaze

#

can also farm a hero trinket until u get h/m gaze

Am i bad or are we squishy on Paladins? I feel really squishy

Will 12.0.7 have a tuning? I don’t feel there will be one

lucid olive
#

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

normal pilot
#

ya it's just power creep + single boss

lucid olive
#

and the 11.0.5 one was just stuff they didnt have time to push in beta, like hail of stars etc

normal pilot
#

12.1 for new stuff

lucid olive
#

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

nimble tangle
#

So we are where we stand right now and will be like this until 12.1

#

Can’t be worse anymore

lofty depot

why do u think were bad

copper gate

We’re in a good spot

nova ocean
#

I can't wait for them to buff devourer in the next major patch

glacial oar
#

And dk

#

Both clearly need it

nova ocean
#

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

dull dust
#

i dont think our st is bad

#

if were allowed to just spec st

lucid olive
#

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

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

arcane sf also does like 15% less then ss

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

Based what I found in Chinese forum

But u have to make crit way higher than mastery first

stark trellis
#

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

rough flax
obsidian jetty
#

and on 3 add sets can rng 2 full moons as well from 1m voke

rough flax
# stark trellis 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

stark trellis
#

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

craggy sonnet
#

well yes, but you cant

#

you never CA/incarn without trees

stark trellis
#

yeah ok

#

thats why we're holding 1 charge of incarn for when trees are up again

#

i assume

#

makes sense

craggy sonnet
#

you never convoke without trees and at least eclipse (upgrades to never without ca/incarn if you play 2min convoke)

craggy sonnet
stark trellis

yeah basically all cds together, seems fairly reasonable
