Haven't clicked the links. Am on phone
Not sure if we can trust wowhead tooltip.
But I also only looked at qelive which says it's not scaling
it also doesn't matter
the difference in weapon sims are more or less the same regardless of voidforge upgrades or not
sir thats not a tooltip
Sir, you are a tool
dont hate the player..
that's not very nice
i let it go when you called me a dork behind my back but you don't call someone a tool unprovoked
conclusion: Clankz was wrong
anyway, the difference between 2x hunt, 2x arcanoweave or 1x arcano+1x hunt is all within like 0.1% of each other
so whatever one is best depends on what you have available
if you crafted gloves for prog early you probably want to go 2x arcanoweave, but when you have maxed out myth gloves it increases the value of a crafted off-hand etc
if you wanna be optimal and do 2x arcano you need to socket a crafted belt and crafted wrists
which is still a few weeks away assuming you crafted for prog
Oh. Actually might have a theory why it was simming that much better.
Also I didn't claim it was true, but I had sims indicating in that direction.
(Spoiler: it might have been hunt messing up recklessness potion)
Isn't belt and hands the same?
yeah i guess they are
you just craft a cloak then instead
i keep forgetting cloaks exist since we did a tier of reshii wraps
Also just wanna say that arcanoweave does grant stats to an ally
yes
without voidforge upgrades
with voidforge upgrades
results are basically identical in regards to weapons/embellishments
should just show this to anyone asking about "ultimate bis list"
none of this shit matters
btw .. so these are the sims i was looking at yday
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/i37HLX6KtrYvZ3AiYTzMZX
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/fXueWYnEh7X4jAfwcEYTJD
guess it wasnt recklessness
ok .. raidbots just dumb? i guess it didnt properly upgrade the offhand
even though tooltip says so
you should change out your item IDs
stupid gear strings
those are the same ones i used on beta
when top gear was bugged
that's also the reason why that one profile had 2x meta gems forever
the bonus IDs on them are fucked because of the top gear error
Doesn't Lura proc the wrong hunt
you know where i got that string from, yeah?
Hello, which combat potion is best for mm+ ?
light's potential
ty
Mickey mouse +?
german probably
they usually say mm for mythic mode or something
same with nhc for normal
yeah, sorry. just wanted to elude to the fact these are probably whats commited to simc as default gear profile
i think its only the french
definitely not true
that do mm
well
i don't think anyone has come in here asking why the bloodmallet profile has 2 primary stat gems
at least i dont think the germans do (i dont, no one i know does)
Good, that means no one is looking at it
it's made up for by the fact that the neck only has 1 gem in it despite having 2 sockets
Revolution was worth it
yes but not in the profile i commited to simc github
those are template profiles anyway
literally who cares
wasn't gonna commit one either but too many people asked me about it
actually despise interacting with it
idk. i dont really.
sorry to disappoint you but average bloodmallet user just look at the chart, never open the profile
they're still using it
true nhc is a thing. but mm idk (for germans)
i think at least according to the sim report, hunt doesnt scale with voidforging (if that is also true ingame, idk)
Theres at least 1 person asking about trinkets on blood mallet in here every week bro
That's a stark difference from before when it was once an hour
non heroic 
Which is good
But that doesn't mean no ones using it
I just switched to Boomie and havent really played it since Undermine. When reading through a lot of the priority lists I see we always want to cast Starfall with Touch of the Cosmos, why is this? Is it 'simply' the 40% chance for a starsurge proc?
Also, I feel my damage is really lackluster (still working on getting more uptime, was at around 85% last raid), how huge is the Gaze/Vaelgor trinkets? I doubt it's a 'this will fix everything' kind of thing. I currently have a Myth Soulcatcher and Hero Emberwing (hope to get either of the others from a HC raid tomorrow).
it will fix everything
You can sim how much you gain from gaze/vaelgor
also 85% uptime is very bad, 100% full focus on that part
yeah, Starfall gives more free Starsurge procs which gives more Solstice uptime and Shooting Stars procs
the gear will come by itself
it's only really worth it if you take a Starfall talent to go with it, but most Starweaver builds take at least Meteor Storm/Kindling or Meteorites
Yea, I was also thinking of the starweaver builds, and yea I really am trying to get the uptime up. I tried to compare my logs to others, and just simply found they were also using almost double amount of starfalls that I was.
sometimes i just press starfall for fun
😄 I am having fun, until I look at my 13% parses, then I really just want to figure out what the heck I am doing. But rather get a starfall too much than too little then.
What in the case when you have a Touch of the Cosmos proc and a Starweaver proc. Is that just 'u bad that shouldnt happen'?
you spend the starweaver proc first
You mention amount of starfalls and parses
if you're talking about m+ parses, they dont matter a whole lot
also don't tell you much either
Nah, this is raid
if you want, you can post a log
and we can zoom in on the timeline
for obvious 'errors'
I'd be happy to try and learn some more, as my current approach was the 'compare' tool from logs, and I try look at stuff like this:
This being imperator myth, and I just see I do waay too little damage with everything, but in comparison not enough on starfall
your opener is wrong
Yea, I saw that when looking into it today aswell.
I completely fk'ed getting dots up, and thought I could take a lot on experience from back in Undermine
you entered Eclipse and then spent 5 globals reapplying dots to the boss instead of spending your resources inside the damage window
shouldve held your 2nd use for the add spawn 10 seconds after
not worth dotting all these adds
just hit boss with CDs up and press Starfall
Oh really
never dash unless you're in an actual pickle, use pre-positioning and wildcharge
Alright! The dash was a we need to move from NW to SE corner
should have reapplied Sunfire before using force of nature instead of as your first global
travel form wild charge
basically every boss except lura is outside
travel form is OP for repositioning
Noted! Thank you!
Ive done the movement from corner to corner, you can pre-move and make it with moonkin wildcharge too
(or just gate if you have a warlock)
shouldve saved these CDs for your trinket and FoE to be up
remember Control of the Dream lets you hold for 15 seconds without losing a use
sometimes its worth holding beyond that for specific mechanics
Yea, I cant remember why we didnt have a gate, but we didnt.
Okay, my setup for CDs, and work on timings
I think you're too used to thinking of Eclipse as "this is available so I should press it" from the old system when it was a passive
the current Eclipse is only similar in the name, how you treat it and plan around it is just like any other damage cooldown in the game
You want to use your damage cooldown when you have the most amount of high value spells available
Yes, most likely. I was asked to go druid as our regular druid wasnt there today, and I've been playing rogue all expansion.
And it just feels like it has changed so much.
should maybe read this message
Thank you! I was going through pins and looking at the compendium.
yeah I just wrote that as a spur of the moment thing a few days ago and just remembered now that it's relevant
can prob add it to an FAQ somewhere
this was a great read but i think it needs more metaphors and a splash of colour
Yes, it's really nice.
I just felt terrible and tried to go through the discord (but honestly, there is hella lot), so tried sticking to the pins.
Personally I easily get confused in the spur of the moment, so I need to try and analyze what I do wrong and prepare. I tried with wowanalyzer for the log, but all I got from that is I need more uptime.
casting the wrong spell is better than not casting a spell
i remember log reviewing someone who was hitting dummies
and he canceled a cast..
Yes, I am very aware, and I know that is a huge flaw I need to work on. But pressing right stuff would also help.
But just looking at this I get a bit 'eh, there I could be pressing stuff'
yeah
moonkin is a proactive spec so analyzing which spots in the fight you could have planned better movement is good
Well, that was Chim, and the big drop is when he flies away afaik, this would be the Imperator that is not as bad, but still bad
that's actually worse you ahve more cancelled casts
That is a really good point.
like on Vorasius why are you standing here perma
just get in the stack bro
wait for tank slam to happen and then spend 1 Starsurge as you take a step left or right into the safe zone from the quakes
I, dont know. You are right.
Where do you get that data? I need to have a look at that
! Thank you!
Why be in melee if he's range, smh
also highly recommend recording your gameplay
yes
its godsend for reducing these mistakes
youll be stupefied by how pointless most cancelled casts/movement is
it's also a godsend for getting advice
people DM me logs to look at sometimes and i rarely respond, but if someone sends me a whole ass VOD
then im all up in that
cap
its so much easier to identify what issues someone are having by watching them play instead of looking at their casts and trying to deduce whats going wrong
vod reviewing takes time bro...
its not cap, it just never happens..
proper reviewing that is
think i've had 2 people send me vods
Maybe I could actually catch a lot of my own mistakes.
Well, thank you very much. I will look at if I cant get a recording of myself, and then after watching it and I cant pinpoint the obvious I might ask again
warcraftrecorder is really good for it, though i personally just use obs cuz its already set up
But just what I gathered now I have a whole ass notepad to go over.
Aight, I was thinking of just getting my GPU software to do it
think you can link warcraftrecorder to logs even
you can yes
even easier to pinpoint crazy shizzle
I need to get a look at that. Because I know I do a lot of crazy shizzle, but I also need to reflect on what the hell the crazy is to try and fix it
recommend checking the option in warcraftrecorder to use GPU encoding for the recording if you end up using that
assuming you have a GPU from this decade
we all do honestly
there's always something you can do better or fix in your gameplay
everybody has (weird) habits
his weird habit is existing

If this was 2 weeks ago I wouldnt be able to record shit, but just upgraded CPU and GPU to battle 10 fps raids
So I got a 9070 XT now, should be able to handle it
But thank you, very valuable with a little log breakdown and some pointers on how to improve myself 🙂
i can relate i guess, i hit 20 frames in a 30 man heroic in Manaforge Omega and impulse bought a new CPU after raid
Kinda what I did aswell
My mobo is old and can only handle DDR4 ram (and I am not going to buy RAM atm), so bought a Ryzen 9 5950X. That gave me 50 FPS or so, and now the GPU gave me another 50 or so
So now I cant blame shitty hardware on my low dps, so now I better actually work on improving

now you can do like everyone else does and blame your dps on blizzard for badly optimized game
all of my deaths are to bugged visual effects!!!
Yea, that was also what everyone else was telling me when i said I needed hardware to play wow
x3d does help immensely for wow
yeah x3d is crazy
unlucky timing tho, 5800x3d re-release prolly isn't for a month or more
yeah for wow
but its done and paid for 
Well, I did go above and beyond for the CPU. I dont need a workstation one, but there was 3 weeks delivery on 5700X
yeah just bad timing if you need a gaming am4 cpu right now. 5600/5700x3ds are bascially impossible to find unless used
missed out on the 9800 all because I ordered my 780 3days earlier
not knowing it was coming out

eh you didn't miss out much unless you wanted to overpay to eke out the highst performance
think it was like 9days from order to delivery, checked halfway through when the new one got added to the list
it was £4 more
FOUR
altho i guess depends on how much you paid ya
best thing about 9800x3d is it tanked price of 7800x3d
listen, I cant even be bothered to do a key this week, it sure as shit aint for wow
funny how I got the bonus rolls and still havent used one
ive used mine in raid and have gotten 3 upgrades so far
proud owner of the myth crest achievement as a healer
all my vaults have been good
I got a mythic weapon from nexus..
i'm .5 ilvl off
Hey deux
hello
bonus rolled a gaze this week
point and laugh at this user
If I hit a usable bonus roll on beloren tonight then I can get myth achievement tmrw
whats myth achiev like 285?
Yes
yes but from a more trustworthy source
Everybody knows white name is more credibility than green
everybody also knows that respectable isnt credible
Oh we’re being hurtful
alright……
we build with starfire on mythic dragons?
nope
Ayeeeeee
I doubt you’d want to starfire at all on dragons
other than to spend apex talent insta cast I suppose
so just dot/mushroom them on cd, wrath to build and starfall
U don't mushroom on CD no
bonus rolled a Undreamt God's Oozing Vestige this week
when do you use it then
On orbs generally when theyre stacked
U can send 1 on opener cuz the first orbs are later
U can also just not use mushrooms if ur not playing 2 bdks
Hey man no offense but how
y are we bonus rolling in feral loot spec……
well sometimes it just be like that
Helloo! How does targetting on Wild Mushrooms work? Should I be switching on orbs (or macro mouseover) ooor do I send them on my main target? Looked at logs but it says "X casts Wild Mushroom" but in game it needs a target so it's kinda confusing 😅
we are but I don't really wanna play them 😄
thanks for tips
U don't really have to
say less
It's at target
So yes if ur trying to do more damage to orbs u should likely target the stack
So I would need to cast them on the bundled up orbs gotcha
If I get an umbral embrace proc early into an eclipse before I've capped starlord, is it worth sending it? Or should I hold until Starlord caps
Starlord isn't the reason u wouldn't do it
Casting spenders at the start of eclipse is just more beneficial
I promise u don't think about that proc
Alrighty just make no rotational changes based off it?
is there a blooming infusion m33kaura or addon i can get to track when i have the free regrowth
U don't not spend asp because of it no
U'll use the proc as ur doing normal rotation
I just track the buff with AyjieCDM
adding regrowth to the CDM makes it glow when its instant
oh thanks ❤️
Ty for the answer, how do you know this? Is it just playing with the APL and seeing the results?
I made it up
yes
i was checking a few days ago to spend umbral embrace and couldnt make it be a gain at least
maybe its a gain with like "spend if remaining duration on umbral embrace is less than a gcd and you have instant builder"
Should I just remove the proc from my CDM altogether then?
yes no maybe
Per chance
Per maybe
U could track solstice and gain more damage that tracking that
Both those numbers are near 0 tho
Pos on screen, -9999999x, -999999y
no theyre right there
A block of icons there is unsettling
So are his parses

idk it all looks weird when you have cdm buff thing open
so they all show
and idk i probably track some useless shit
but its all spread around different anchors
hey i have a lot of friends getting into the game, one is playing boomie and I'm trying teach him to import gamz cdm profile, but its not importing the AP bar
Don't think the Ap bar is default cdm profile
the AP bar isnt part of the regular CDM
i think the thing off wowhead is old by now as well
i should update that
rip, is there a quick way I can give him a good profile
if you wanna read about addons there a little blurt in there yeah
ty
idk there are plenty of creators who have their UIs on wago for free
plenty of different addons for resource bars out there
or whole CDM suites
I hope this resorce bar breaks the resorce addons
that would be very on theme with this xpac
prob
yo guys quick question , sending 3 wild shrooms asap , dmg stacks ? or
yes
Are there any good streamers/youtubers that are doing high keys on boomy? I know about canexx but it seems he isn’t playing anymore
Krona, dwilkz
Boomkin isn't exactly good at high keys, u'll likely see both of them play not boomkin soon aswell
could just leave it at boomkin isnt good
in your hands maybe
Can’t even find a basic guide on YouTube lmao
wdym doesnt tettles have one
Spec is 
well good thing you can reroll any time !
I’ll check this one out. Thanks
It's not like the m+ build or rotation for boomkin has changed
?
The key is to cut it before it gets nerf
i dont think so
portal into tether
well clearly your guild struggles with it? or?
Typical Pull Count: 74 — 111 yee
This
Anyone got a good M33kaura for innervate? (a whisper wa)
we stuck portal into tether
Tethers 3 4 and 5 are all hard
The last 30% of that fight is definitely a whole lot harder than anything before it
yuh
But after the nerfs tomorrow you won’t even have to play the 5th set
What if they have 5 dead and don't do damage
Alright good question I hadn’t considered that
you can try this if you want, made it the other day https://wago.io/1-RN1y3A0
Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements
I need somethign thats just a permanent icon for my color
you got any of that
bigwigs has a sound for it baseline when you get swapped during the cast i think
i just changed the sound
whats the opinion on rattle vs starweaver in m+ with ec, is the latter miles ahead or are they both fine?
it does yeah
linked in nsrt
its just a link to a WA yeah
I raid natty
but im shadow priest
so like
im always purple idk
it doesnt register
THIS JUST GIVES ME A LINK HELLO
now what
oh that's also a meekaura
smh
yes
the old fashion way
that should work
cba with fking wowup
worst thing ever made
just give in use curse discord is selling all your data anyways
hold your tongue wtf
...
I give vinter my data too now
one day it'll be the end of me
thx
when does rogue get good
yes
Thank you!
ok now how do i put the aura in the meek
the addon is just weakauras
same shortcut too
@lucid olive focus on lura instead
/wa
you guys take breaks after every pull..
you playing d4?
absolutely not
government mandated break
@lucid olive /focus lura i hope that helps
is arctic kills before gamz im never letting him live it down
know anyone with a stash of heavy junkbox they want to sell?
euro pilled
damn he realized insta
you cant trade, youre an ironman
ye that was quick
i doubt theres a world we do
arcty you on lura?
wanna come tank a key 

WHY WOULD YOU EVER DO NOT 10?
for one its my war thats behind my druid
you dont understand the question
I know full well I can do a 10
your item level could be 200
I know it, you know it
do a 10
actual decline simulator
there's zero reason not to
do your own key
why isnt it a 10
smh
not true
tanks do not exist
this season i made my own key 10 on my first char in 1 hour
what am I on my war..like
1987, basically 2k
yes I can do a 10
but fucknuggets with the 10keys
will perma decline
for 14years

big shock you get tank compression
when it doesnt filter into raid
idk what you want from me I've..half? 10s done alt is never getting into a 10

rather tww s1 over this season

well yeah
hence why tww s1 is massively prefered over ..this
easy season, tanks (and healers) rise faster
for the underrepsented role
and they are, numbers wise
before you even get to the translation to raid comps
which is a disaster in itself
its actually been really easy to get into keys so far as dps
just list ur own key go afk for 5mins come back accept go
again, I'm not even massively undergeared on war to even do 10s, mid 260s but its yet to do a 10
like if I was 240 w/e
like 5 different ways the uptick in tanking could be improved
but just isnt
not even a new problem, it's a recurring one
just did that 30mins, 0 tanks, so clearly not

unironically ..valorstones good?
atleast tanks would dip down into lower keys for them

hell I'd tank myself ..if I didnt have a like 180 shield
how do they manage to pop treant at 00:01 and again on 00:37 on Dragons ?
early spring
dont even say that shit
ooooh right , thanks
only blizz could make a more dogshit sysmte
just simply do not do keystones
i guess there is no way to make burst macro work with incarn, right?
as you need to press repeatedly and you risk using bot stacks of incarn
would it be a good idea to do it with force of nature?
no
u press incarn at the end of that gcd not the start
wasting gcds in incarn not poggers
my warlock brain is mentally unable to use burst on another button than the main one xD
what does gcd means ? i've created the druid this friday as an alt char
global cool down
ur burst isnt actually incarn
its trees
but marco brain just needs to turn off
rate my mog
druid player 
😔
is it fun
druid? idk im like level 7
I seen the pit tiers and druid seems down bad
But D4 is good now

that boss is stupid
skill issue
on t12
big skill issue
killed him on t10 easy
(I'm like level 40)
(it wasnt easy)
Mephisto is genuinely maybe the hardest boss ever in arpg if you fight him at appropriate difficulty level
Like where mechanics can't be tanked
and you don't burst him down in 3 seconds
it took me like 80 pulls
is that not just like pre nerf lillith or w/e
its like lilith
but with 3x more mechanics
but slightly more time to react
at the cost of just more happening simultaneously
Asides from one overlap in P2, it's genuinely a super good fight tho. Very fun
But I need some pro to help me with my build because I can only do like pit 120
I'm running a triple greater demon build, full abyss
build is probably fine if you find a decent one online
I make my own

I did take a peek but nobody has done it yet
Like being able to kill mephisto means I did SOMETHING right
But then you see a WW barb kill it in 3.5 seconds
(my kill was 6 minutes)
are you changing build for pits/bossing
eye + rampage + laalish + abaddon
For T12 mephisto I change my unique charm to this
and I add totem
but I have like 100% crit and 600% crit dmg, I dont know how else to scale my dmg
paragonparagonparagonparagonparagonparagon
look at this ring
hand it over
and this amulet
like my gear is fire
I want to do a quad demon setup by adding the turret demon, but the turret demon doesn't have auto targetting so if a boss moves 1 step it stops doing dmg
It's like INSANELY dogshit design
Literally worthless
Well there's no choice in the matter right
Amulet you can use the unique reagent to spam roll for a good aspect
Every other piece of gear you just press it and pray
But yeah every piece is non protected transfigured
and then once you get what you need, transfigure it again without the reagent
time to transfigure my grandfather
Disrespectful to your ancestors tbh
fuck em
Goddamn
for a second i thought we were in the diablo channel
have you had corndog nuggets
you mean like mini corndogs
can't use the name sorry unless that's a cup of mustard then yo'uve got bigger problems
the abandoned 9 where every dps was average 35-40k
is why I'm asking
I've never thought about it
because I have hands and dont do 40k
overall
my bad for trying to heal a key I guess
just wanted crests smh
abandoned 9 is crazy work kekkers whats going on over there..
wiped to rukhmar twice, tank let me take 2 melees post firestorm as he refused to get back into melee range
and the birbs werent cced/killed
like atall


knew something was wrong when there were like 5 birds
40k would be why
now the comp was bad for bird cc but..eh
just swap idk
someone uses EXWIND addon ?
many people use the addon
how do i get astral form
yes
pep
its a glyph, glyph of stars
can just buy it from ah
my server has no glyphs of any kind?
jk
i had some ah filter on im stupid
ignore me
goodbye
ignoring
racist, wtf
chat spam on illidan is insane
/leave 5, there you go, fix
and yes it's an abomination its a defaulted channel
blizzard scum

@vital hound


Why the heck can't I get into solar eclipse? I thought you cast wrath and it changes your elcipse button to solar?
ur playing elunes chosen and are spec'd into lunar calling
so do i just starfire in ST?
if ur playing elunes chosen, ya
elunes chosen uses lunar eclipse and starfire in ST
and aoe
You wrath in ST if youre not in eclipse
But once you turn on any eclipse you starfire
ya that one
Why would they ask these questions in balance discord?
not reading that essay
sorry that happened or congratulations
said the guy that needed help installing m33kauras

those are were outrageous lol
whats the power level strat from like 64 onwards
warplans
buffdruid the warlock needs to blast
warplans helltides and NMDs I think

I did the no-brick transfigure on my mythics but otherwise I’m letting it rip
nah u dont do that
This is legit my first brick in like 30 items
It NEVER bricks
ya but I didn’t have backups and really didn’t want to play without them so I went safe on the first two
tbh I have no clue about the transfigure shit but we ball
The worst case scenario normally is this: "indestructible"
yolo sounds way more fun
that happens a lot
you just finish an item (dont forget gem sockets) and then you press chaos orb
that's all there is to it
use the unique material on neck to give it 1 extra aspect first
all I get are doombringers and eldruins
oh ez
btw
3:1 all useless armor pieces, this gives you a chance to get greater affix
I've gotten loads of double GA that way
ya I’m 3:1ing all my Night Terrors to try and find one with two mults
closest I got was vuln and fire, needed shadow
like the nr1 strat is 3:1 ancestral blue/yellows
fish for 1/2/3 GA
Then craft the rest
mhm
the rate of GA on your temper is also really high feels like
I’ve never had to spend more than a few scrolls and a lot of the time I get it before needing scrolls
Mandatory on classic ptr
classic ptr 
Did a lot of sunwell testing a few years ago, it was legit 15 messages to 1 in English xD
To make sure everything in the spaghetti code functions like intended

I'm looking to push on bear but raid miffic on boomy. Am I straight up inting speccing into leech enchants raiding on boomy? 
No, tertiaries are overrated
Cheers
Terts are also irrelevant for bear
Pick whichever, they're all meh
Speed is unironically probably the best one for bear
Leech believer 
Avoidance usually the go-to but depends on the raid tier and how the worst spells are sourced
Leech is overall fine
The cheapest option 💸
the voice is no more in english , chinese only
guys I need to understand the fluid form, why tf do we need this?. If I am on bear form and i cast any spell it does it as normal form not as kfc form
it shifts you into moonkin when the cast ends
shifts you into human form as the cast starts
but the damage is as human
inst it just better to change to kfc and then deal damage
not really
the difference isn't massive though, you can skip the talent if you want
i personally don't like playing it
but it definitely has value
you can also cancel your current form during a cast
so if you get rooted by a mechanic you can do Wrath -> Cancel form -> Cast ends
biggest issue with it is that most cases you want it after a roar
and then youre already moving

so cant cast it
thats why i don't rly take it as well
it's that + it's capstone talent and there are other talents worth taking
capstone let me chek
capstone = its at the bottom
smh not taking the 3% avoidance talent
i like to stampede
its hotw good
will try to play without it lets see
i like it but i might be overestimating its value
I usually press HOTW during my Roar assignment
like on Paladins i roar before healer soaks and have it up
roar for tethers on alleria
etc
Hello everyone, I have a question about my rotation for the single-target Boomy build at the end of the eclipse (the last 3 seconds). Should I:
1 - Spend all my astral power until the end of the eclipse (to make the most of the eclipse buff) and then cast Wrath at the end of the eclipse to replenish my astral power so I can cast another eclipse once my astral power has been replenished
or
2 - In the last 3 seconds of my eclipse, cast Wraths to replenish my astral power and immediately follow the end of my current eclipse with a new one, as my astral power will already be replenished. (But I won’t be making the most of the eclipse buff in that case.)
Thanks for your feedback 😉
Realistically it's a little bit of both, depending on whatever the fight wants from you and whatever your current cooldown is on Eclipse or CA/Incarn
Ideally you do number 1 where you pool AP and procs for your Eclipse window and then make sure to end your Eclipse with as little resources as possible
But imagine you're currently in Eclipse, the buff is gonna last 5 more seconds, your current recharge on Eclipse is sub-20 seconds and you also have Incarn+Trinket ready
the variables there can get a little confusing so sticking to a single rule of "pool in Eclipse and spend at end of Eclipse" can be wrong
I think, when your Eclipse is about to end, you should be aware of what your next cooldown use is of CA/Incarn or Eclipse
and then treat the time between according to that
if it was up to me I'd make it so CA/Incarn extends your current Eclipse, is castable while casting, and re-procs every "entering Eclipse does X" effect
think that would fix most of the CD struggles the spec has


<@&114146878353833984> this guy typed this in like 3-4 channels
kinda sus i'd keep an eye out
fluid form
do i press fury of elune whenever it's available ? even outside of eclipse ?
and do i dot things up before going into eclipse
or after?
it depends how many charges you have
let's say first pull of the dungeon
if you're sitting capped at 2 charges at the start of an m+ pull you can just press Eclipse during your dots
and then incarn once the pack is gathered
since you're specifying dungeons I'll assume you play Elune's Chosen
in which case you FoE off cooldown
and when im doing a boss fight and have the free starfall and free starsurge
do i press starfall?
because it costs more
yes but not because it costs more
you press Starfall because it has a 40% chance of giving a free Starsurge
which leads to more free procs and more Solstice uptime and more Shooting Stars damage
i dont know why i felt shy to ask all these questions until now ><
which leads to more AP which leads to more spenders used overall which leads to more procs of your 4set
isn't it great how they made every class simple and easy to understand in this expansion
Maybe you’re just a little baby
thats rude
My bad
one last thing
for example the boss with the 2 pets
do i use aoe rotation or do i focus the boss?
im confused because they all take the same dmg
Oooh I love that sticker
applies to every boss of this type? even the ghost and the big guy?
the sticker loves you back
"derelict duo"
the only exception is if 1 target is somehow immune to damage, which i don't think is anyone
ick and krick for example
you should read the Compendium guide linked in channel description and pinned messages
ok ok
or wowhead guide
i think i read it but it didnt talk about bosses that share the dmg
you don't change any priority with bosses that share health
its just a 2 target fight regardless of if they share hp or not
alrighty
thank you 
i know sim it but eternal voidsong chain or eye of midnight ever worth? something boomies generally go after?
just looking for any other answer than sim it, it's just an objective question is all
i can sim it but it's unrelated, genuinely curious if voidsong chain n eye of midnight is something boomies like to go after
I didn't see either on the bis list which I find interesting considering both have haste


none of these are very good no
the neck is worse than Pit of Saron neck and the ring is worse than Nexus Point 2set
you can for sure wear them though if the alternative is dogshit
smh low numbers
wrong
it means i simmed in different talents
cause stat weights are not to be trusted
stat weight's will just change with every piece of gear you equip
what's wrong with keeping things dynamic
you know
keeps you on edge...
actually @quiet drift you should try and sim the crit effect meta gem with max gem colors
if you haven't checked it already
for me it's a gain with 5 total sockets
Might be better if I swapped to crit flask
But I just had Haste on for vibes
yeah thats true
W
have you looked at SOTF for Lura btw
i saw you take off UE for Communion
think SOTF is good way to get some more movement globals in Eclipse
with Incarn it doesn't sim that much worse than other stuff on ST either
AC does the same no
Just picked AC for Crystal vibes
Even tho im just missplaying it still
and not consistatly being close to cap on spawn
I just do Recruitie build
now im full cosmetic
1 min convoke with weaver and meteorites
yeah idk
Rattle also makes
i played incarn for the first night and it felt dogshit
sus
starweaver most fun part
highrolling spender procs when you move from the beams
mmmm
yeha
or munching procs in convoke
I tried Rattle for a couple pulls but just had 0 fun
Convoke munches procs?
ye I tried Convoke SW for two pulls
convoke and starweaver are both effects from before Dragonflight so i imagine they're consistent like that
Convoke procs Cosmos and doesn't consume it, that one I am 100% on
Ok
but Cosmos is from War Within so makes sense that one would be inconsistent
Weaver convoke seems like it could be pretty annoying to not be able to dump ap and delay convoke because of it
every 30th shooting star
Trying to get out of combat with the tank dummies?
Oh? Thought it was just if clip a tank dummy with something
Either way, these dudes are persistent.
who knows
idk why they take all the dummies and then cram them into the tighest circle possible
one thing im curious about is mastery/haste vs adding in some crit, looking at most mythic prog logs a lot of boomies in both raid and keys are running a shitload of mastery, a lot of haste and a little squirt of crit like in the 500-600 range, is that ideally the amount of crit we should be going for? Because it seems like mastery/haste dominates otherwise
Okay so the first 4 words of the post I replied to was "i know sim it"
I would refer back to that for whatever else you're curious about
fussing around with stats can be fun but is time wasted when you could be spending it doing a key
also not sure where you get it from that "most mythic prog logs" have haste higher than crit
A lot of boomkins slam haste/mastery and don't think about things
that sounds like you either made it up or you misunderstood what you were watching
That doesn't mean it's correct
It's why u don't look at people's gear, u look at a sim
also, just for clarity; following "top mythic prog logs" and "mythic+ key doers" and valuing that information as equal or better information than your sim is bad
those players you're following just sim their character and wear whatever it says
and then log in and play the game
Oh well I didn't say otherwise, I said a shitload of mastery, a lot of haste and a little squirt of crit in the 500-600 range. I'm not in the business of making things up
well
Thats not a little squirt though
i'm progging lura and i have 100 more crit than mastery
Can we stop saying little squirt
and like 500 more crit than haste
Irrelevant, not the main point whatsoever

Before I little squirt on ur back
Yeah, it's infuriating in sm for sure
No. It is in fact irrelevant because it's not the main point whatsoever
Then dont use it as a way to describe something
I clearly outlined 500-600 crit, which isn't wrong, arguing over choice of words is childish tbh
Move on
what data are you looking at to get that information anyway
Hm, I actually thought that at the very least with vaelgors stats other than vers are pretty balanced
They are yeah
I was looking at archon, which no I don't use that as an absolute reference point for data but it does outline that on average it's about 1.1k mastery, 750 haste and about 500-600 crit. Of course I would sim anyways, that's what I already do, conversation was just more based around what boomies most favorable stats are because objectively speaking it appears to be mastery/haste, which brings me back to my original question about whether or not voidsong chain or eye of midnight are worth getting hype about or not, but I think likely not
Hmm
Correct I don't use it as an absolute reference point
objectively speaking the only objective information you can get on the topic is from simming your own character
well
U shouldn't use it as any reference point
They should probably shut the website down then since it's widely misleading for everyone
Well if u stop opening it, they might
Because no one should be using it as a reference point
you said
i was looking at archon = stating your source
i don't use that as an absolute reference point = disclaimer because you know data is bad
objectively speaking the best stats appear to be mastery and haste = saying the stats presented on the website is objective, despite saying you know data is bad
But instead u click it and they get ad rev
