I pray bear gets nuked
This, hard this
bro you are way too attached to your spec being your entire personality
if people playing it first time cus its good and easy
to prove that claim is actually rocket science though, if you are gonng claim mangle > moonfire there needs to be math to be back it up
makes you wish it was 'nuked
the point is the gain in beam uptime is much much higher than the gain in incarn uptime and that makes it generally better, but sometimes the later is still preferable if you need it for a specific pull
so people can GET OFF MY SPEC
Ya cause fotmers are legit the worst type of player
And like
I want the game to be balanced
deal with it, its a video game and people like to have fun not tie their identities with their specs
blame blizz

There is math
for making obvious fotm choices
There is also
Some people hyperfixate on being THE BEST SPEC IN THE GAME WHY NERF US WHEN WE'RE JUST OVERPOWERED???
Log reviews showing its usefulness
and log reviews showing also its not usefulness
so which one
of the two
is correct?
literally doing more dps than dps
and people said bear was unplayable when they got the (needed) nerf
maybe you can say both, but if you're saying mangle only is correct you need some other data
We've been nerfed 4 times
And we're still a top tank
All I saw was a bunch of logs with a bunch of useless uptime on lunar beam
trust me I know
Cause it’s being casted when mobs are about to die
All I saw was a bunch of logs with a bunch of useless uptime on incarn
Cause it’s being casted when mobs are about to die
Bro, is aldrachi playable for vdh?
So
Show proof?
Instead of throwing a bad argument
Aldrachi is poop from a butt
Do not play
F
"it goes both ways" only works when it ACTUALLY goes both ways
there is no proof, i made it up
Then im not gearing vdh

That’s funny
I know
I didn’t make my claim up
nah do it its fun
We’ve just discussed logs
It's funny
there's similar wasted beam uptime on the logs with less casts
vdh actually fun
I absolute hate how anhilator works
it's a very stupid argument
You're slamming us for being "too attached to their playstyle"
i fail to see how beam uptime is wasted but incarn isnt
:) showing useless lunar beam uptime
But then you're doing this
what part exactly? i like meta procs and cdr personally
but also feels bad cuz if you dont get a decent proc you might be deadge
No no I get it
This version of vdh is def less fun than tww or df
Felscarred slapped
bro I miss shadowlands vdh
Anni slaps but not in the same way
dont @ me
Meta procs is apex, what i mean is all ur dmg comes from being in meta dropping meteors like wtf
right but those meta procs give u cdr on your meta
Feels so fucking good
Tww aldrachi was so goated
bc u get max stacks voidfall
this is how felscarred was too
its gross
they need to just like
remove the damage amp from fiery brand or smth
It’s not like that’s new for vdh
Aldrachi had so much prio dmg as tank
That was always its fantasy
it's not new but it's still kinda shitty design
Idk I find it okay
But it’s not for everyone and that’s fine
Being hyper aggressive cause most of your dr/ sustain kit comes from being aggressive and trying to shit out as much damage as possible
Is pretty neat
I'd say I much preferred alrachi but even then
Also immoaura doing 0 dmg for the millionth season for vdh is so bad
without s2 tier set for the resets vdh aldrachi always felt worse than havoc aldrachi (rip)
take me back to shadowlands man thats what imsa ying
Nah fel dev shitty button now
spam fel dev immo aura and spiritbomb
I understand why they did it but like
i dont even wanna press it
Nah
Gotta make fel dev do a ton of damage and make it interact with both hero trees
idk maybe meta uptime would be too high
So they can add a rng version of it to the apex 
idfk
keep both smh
vdh is my 2nd fav tank after blood
I miss felscarred
Vdh should have kept felscarred and reaver
I used to love vdh in legion but never liked it that much since
Havoc should have lost reaver cause fuck soul tracking on havoc
Tbh who the f asked for a void theme dh in the first place
I mean people asked for a third range spec on dh for awhile
Making void doesn’t really matter to much
Shaman tank pog
Tho they kinda make it sucky
IM DOWN
Story wise
Literally any new tank man Im STARVED
Sorry, my warden shaman sense tingled
I knew you'd react
Imma go back to work now

Instead of you devouring a void monster like normal dh do with demons
You just eat void
Yay
Even tho we’ve seen a fel corrupted void beast in wod
Granted midnight isn’t my highlight for story
Ngl
whenever legion came out
Legion was 2016
think it was 2016
Ye
Shadowlands> Xalatoes saga in terms of story
What month?
November I think
Ye, so bit to go before I update
We Gucci
Oh shit son
And DH came in pre-patch
^
so true bestie
Nvm i change my statement, who the f asked for a support spec
Sadly Aug could have been great
maybe more
It would make sense if many specs would have gotten one, cause having only 1 means its always op as f
honestly think aug in it's current state is pretty neat, but we do definitely need another tank
as it works currently it's just a dps that functions differently
Aug got changed to be much less of a support spec
just make shaman tank
Which helps
its overdue
as the extra utility got taken out back
Well I mean
Honestly
the armor talent being completely useless for example
With the new apex
Tinker
Aug has CC out the ass again
true
Idk aug perma knocking adds is broken as hell
Engineering being a thing prevents this, and they don't want to kill engineering despite it not actually being useful anymore
Add tinkerer in the game
Boo
Although
They did add bows to inscription now
So maybe there's a chance they murder engineering
but they don't have the shield from rescue or strong scales anymore
Yet they put chemistry or whatever in a survey
i dont see why engineering and tinker compete

Which competes with alchemy
Brother
btw this dosent mean more incarn, cause u dont always press incarn on cd, more mangle more r age for IF for sure, but I think the incarn thing is overestimated tbh
they're thematically similar but obviously it doesn't make engi useless
Let it be over
Booo, stop bringing up old topics
You mean thematically identical
I’m taking that bait
But ya
Idc
Bring tinkerer
I want to be in a big mech
Imagine your big tank cd
Is just hopping in your mech
well not exactly
had my brunch, not over for me 
tinker would have many things engi doesn't
And then like
as in, enough things to fill in a rotation of 3 specs
Funny, you think tinker would have a tank spec?
Some of your rotational skills become mech versions of it
That would be cool
Tbh if they went that way I think you’d just always be in the mech
It would have a healer spec, a pet turret/bot spec and a rocket/flamethrower spec
To tank while in a big robot
That’s fine with me tbh
Like bear
But robot
mech would probably be a cd
blizzard loves their cds
if they made druid now the forms would all be cds
??
Brother, druids haven't had CDs on their shapeshifts since warcraft 3
that would be what I'm saying
if blizzard were to make druid as a new class in 2026, they'd probably make the shapeshifts cd
The smoke alarm is going off
feral would cast wrath for 10k dps and every 2 mins go cat form for 20s for 500k dps

pure dps class, take or leave it
Healer spec design for tinker could be fun - drones that drop healing air strikes, nanobot injections, the classic tf2 healing ray
rocket ranged, the gazlowe hots melee talent, and turret ranged
Tank lives in its mech, dps plays around with explosives and turrets
I don't know if I'm meant to talk about this in here but
take it or leave it
Conquest of Azeroth
What’s that
pserver
why do the class icons look AI
release by 2036 huge
Dunno if they are, they used some ai stuff for talent backgrounds in early alpha just to have placeholder art
I don't think they are because 5 years ago they would have looked a lot worse if ai gened
they just look like it
Well if they use Ai
Then no ty
Also
I like some of these concepts
A lich spec would go hard
I think it was just placeholder art (if they had any) and has long been replaced
Does someone knows the macro for incarn that uses trash before and after in the same keybind??
There's no significant gain to macroing like that over just pressing thrash, incarn, thrash
You have the whole global cooldown of the first thrash to press incarn and be ready to press thrash again
Is there a way to see what raidbots is pressing?
It says my dotc apex build is 60k more dps (10 targets) than the ec thrash build but actual running dungeons im very close to same dps for both builds
btw what talent setup u run with EC Apex
Is there a macro for regrowth that can not accidentaly demorph you
Do you need the two rings from Nexus Point for the equip effect to trigger?
as a bear?
embelish works too
i see no embelish he uses here with shadow dmg
ahhhh ye
my bad
but i guess the dmg from neck is, let's say "not here" XD
but the stats are gucci
nice
@lucid arrow Naowh using DoC btw
waits for the "ah yes i can see how its clearly the superior option now"
Its always been that 🤷♂️ But DG is reasonably close to serve as a lazy option.
with nopex build, during a pull, when both thrash and lb are off cooldown what is the better global?
i answered you yesterday, moonfire
no, hes asking should he press thrash or lunar beam
off coldown. not on cooldown
Press Lunar beam
Hi ! 🙂 Quick question about craft why do they craft Crit/hast and not versa Haste ? or mastery
dont panick fellas
if im tanking in m+ as dotc, whats the move if im getting hit a lot and i have a ravage proc and i already have like 1 ironfur? is a second layer of ironfur better or do i let rip the ravage?
ravage also has a defensive benefit
ravage gives flat dr
yeah i think 15% thingy
ok! also if i have a ravage proc and im like 20 or so points away from 80 rage, do i wait or do i ravage at that moment too
u dont need ever to wait 80
scenario where i pulled a whole ass room
just send it at 60
oh i always think at 80 for the harness thingy
quick question, I checked pins but didn't find this info, where can I find on which dungeons to use my bonus role?
ok thanks!
as long as u benefit full killing blow
new char?
you use on whatever dungeon you get the loot you need
if its a fresh one I suggest windrunner
every item there is good
windrunner spire is good one for fresh
and it has a wep, and good trinkets
no, at 283 rn I have mythic weapon (not bis) but my tanking trinks are all hero, I have heart and plume (do have box at 298 but holding on using it atm)
ouzzle is for kitty paw paw lol
Ive had puzzlebox since the beginning, ive never unequipped lol
also nxp rings are good ones too
good chance you might want to drop harnessed rage anyways tbf
it was already optimal to opt out of it for damage before the thrash buff, after it it's become quite meh
97 for my ilvl on heroic imperator without warri buff, please be proud of me

well my weapon is the one from windrunner spire lol so trinks and i could also use that neck on mythic as well
If you have a myth weapon they're all pretty equivalent for Guardian. Might check the loot tables to see if there are any dungeons that drop myth slots you need too.
did you bribe the other tank to let you get adds every time? 
(but gz)
not pink 


says bro who doesnt even raid
great tks
oh i just copied it from the compendium. but if i do it would be a lot easier for me i think
it's still a gain st but aoe you get gore so much it does nothing almost
right ill see if it feels good moving it somewhere else. thanks!
double FC if you don't have it
ye double fc is must
talking about dotc so
ik
and I'd prob run guardian of elune over the mastery talent
guardian is good if u play raze
without raze i would go mastery instead
even with raze on dotc I'd rather just have higher uptime on more if stacks than that
raze point almost useless for current dotc keys. At the bottom of the tree you always have 2 FC, then you choose between Moonless night(damage) or Harnessed Rage(tankyness
so WN is absolute useless for DotC?
no, it does a few % damage, you just do more damage with MN
realistically I'm not sure hr even gives you that much extra tankiness on multi target situations
oki
its more ironfur + healing
do significantly more mangle healing with hr
what I mean is that you get so much gore it's not that many more mangles
if you look at just aoe
st sure it's pretty big
you'd be surprised how often you have to swipe without it
I thought the same thing
but, the issue with it is that its a useless talent point during incarn
Brybear and I have switched with it a couple times
maybe ill move my harness to fc 2/2! feels good multi proccing this thang
You 100% should have 2/2 fc
ooh this is the pic i copied from compendium
yeah that's what we were discussing, a couple options would prob be best swapped
i specifically tried looking for one that uses raze cus i like it, and not elunes chosen cus i feel icky pressing moonfire as filler
careful, someone's gonna execute him for picking ursol's warding
Though I take a point out of reinvig and put it back into bark cd
thanks! ill do another pass at recent convo so i understand better
There are elune's chosen builds that press raze and don't use moonfire as a filler if you prefer that
It basically plays identical to DOTC, except you don't get ravage procs
oh, where is it? might have missed it. im prone to skimming
https://www.dreamgrove.gg/blog/guardian/compendium#mythic-talents This section of the compendium has 3 builds for each hero tree. Only the one called "Nopex" under Elune's Chosen is without maul
The other 2 play the same (ish) as druid of the claw
Just if you wanted an Elune's Chosen option
ok ty!
for that build it might be worth swapping elune's favored to moonless, unless you really feel the need for that extra healing
The maul builds have moonless
tbh EF, FoN and moonless all good ones
for the apex build elune's is particularly weak
After the MN nerf
this is the build where moonless is strongest too
actually hadn't realized until now how tight ec raze feels on talent points, compared to other builds
idk FoN kinda boosts everything even in apex build, does MN really push through it
raze is like half your damage with apex build
actually nvm
not quite that much
1 point in FoN, MN and EF are all options for the build
can't sim atm but should be easy to compare there (though sim is slightly biased in mn's favor, since you'll raze targets without moonfire sometimes)
MN should be more burst damage, especially against prio targets
But it's close either way
ok sorry last question for now, during incarn with the flood of ravage procs, i just let it rip right? no care about killing blow?
yeh
preferably you still send buffed by kb but rather send unbuffed than risk wasting a proc
ok last last question, how do i deal with wild guardian and ravage? i make sure to use my 2 wild guardian on ravages?
preferably
ok i think i asked everything i was curious about. thanks! really helpful friends here
im glad someone is playing apex too and having fun with it
3700 breaked, 19 resil soon (tm)
anyone else have trouble with The Light of Elune on mythic paladins? I've had the Fury of Elune proc on Senn while she's far away on her aura and get silenced 🙂
do you just switch to Astral Insight not to deal with this?
That would be the option, yes
feels super dumb but it is what it is I guess
yeah I'm not too bummed about that, it just feels dumb that a random proc can silence you when you're not doing anything wrong
Is getting hit in the back an issue for bear?
Does anyone have issues with remove curses as guardian? Specifically this macro is not working on the duo boss in Windrunner
#showtooltip Remove Corruption
/cast [target=mouseover,help,nodead][target=target] Remove Corruption
You cannot dodge while getting hit in the back. So while you dont technically take bonus damage, the more swings at your back the more damage you take overall
I don't know if target=mouseover works, but @mouseover works
less so than block tanks but still something to be avoided when you can
I'd have to recheck but I'm pretty sure you only send ravages with 60+ rage
@vagrant python tagging you too because it's an answer to your question
Because sending at 40 rage is 100% of a ravage, sending at 50 rage is 135% of a ravage and sending at 60 rage is 170% of a ravage
So even if you sometimes risk clipping, you're still very unlikely to clip
And getting effectively 2x ravage per proc is much better than maybe sometimes not clipping
This is also why you try to hover around max rage in DOTC, even during incarn
To limit the amount of times you have less than 60 rage and a ravage proc
ah yeah thats a good avenue for improvement for me i havent even thought of that at my level
rage control mmm
Does ironfur even do anything on mythic paladins
I feel like most of tbe damahe is just holy
Damage
Most of the damage is holy yeah
But they still melee hard
You can probably survive the encounter without ironfur
Ive noticed im only in danger when whatserbitch is meleeing me
And ironfur seems to do mostly nothing
Im also tanking senn most of the fight
So im taking nearly double the damage from the other tank but its almost all magic
They both melee equally hard, about 900k before mitigation if not empowered by anythjing
I'd still keep up 1 stack of IF
Because why not
Bellamy shield definitely hits harder than the ret guys swing
Hello Guys. I thin kthere was an addon or macro so i dont switch out of bear when i dont have proc for healing. can u link pls? thanks!
I think ideally you always have enough rage for it but if the situation comes up where you don't have enough you send it rather than risk override it with claw rampage
Not according to logs
Everything not a melee is holy damage
The taunt swap thing
that said it's not a situation that comes up on sims because the sim won't make that rage management mistake
I can live venel swap easily with just fregen up,
Bellamy swap one shots me if i dont have anything up
This is the physical damage taken by this bear I'm looking at
This is not-physical damage
Ye but just logically speaking, you're incredibly unlikely to get a proc on any given auto attack, and claw rampage is only 20%
Sorry triple
outside of incarn the choice is obvious and it's build before sending
I haven't checked if they fucked up the taunts at any point
I guess I was misremembering 
Na shield definitely just does more damage
You get one shot unless you have bark si incarn and an external up
If you take the shield plus judgment
Its like 3milli
Unless you can cheese it somehow
Maybe dks can live the hit
The numbers aren't super different
Its 3 vs 6 hits
Look at the "U: " values
timed my first 15. was AA. only done it on 12 before. living that first pull is dope ass mean
Does damage reduced by barkskin count as unmitigated
okay so im pretty much geared for guardian rn, if I wanted to feral dps sometimes how rough will my dps be with guardian gear
Idk how hes taking less unmitigated some hits
Unmitigated is calculated backwards
I believe
So it takes the actual damage taken, and the mitigation and absorbs amount the tank has, then calculates the unmitigated amount
It's not perfect, but it's close enough on magic damage like this
So he had like si instead of bark on the 500k hits
The bosses have periods of increased damage done
Im wondering if I should take RF on that fight
The 43% mitigation hits are probably bark, and the 67% is probably SI
I took off brambles cuz healers were struggle bussing but i put it in the magic dr which doesnt seem too helpful
Its like 2% dr most times
UW I think is what its called
Im playing dotc, basically saving 1 stack of si for emergencies and saving ironfur for every swap
Err barkskin
Not ironfur
So i think the extra dr on swap would help a bit
But idk

Im also saving incarn for swaps when I need to double taunt
The senn pull out mostly
Though it usually lines up pretty perfectly
Are there any talents you can think of that would help with just reducing the overall magic damage im taking
UW seems minor but might add up
I think there is something wrong with logs maybe for guardian though looking at paladin logs. Like this one for example the shield of the righteous dmg (unmitigated) varies very wildly from 944k to 560k https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/QHVJYFfghpxD729K?fight=27&type=damage-taken&source=11&target=397&ability=1251859&view=events
no taunt misses
I think it has to do with on target mitigation like moonfire and thrash
the first one that supposedly hits for 944k doesnt have moonfire and only 1 thrash stack
the next one for 560k has moonfire and 5 thrash stacks
maybe wclogs doesnt calculate those dmg reductions correctly?
And idk if its a healer externalling me or if the ability just wildly varies in damage
well if you look at the dk
So is it just guardian bug? Or logs being weird
so the wclogs damage calculation is off or bear mitigation breaks in that fight., But I would guess it's a log problem
Its not a health % based hit right?
It seems to be a lot more on us
Ive looked at desth logs and its hit me for more before
well it could be just that you usually swap when he is coming back from aura
and dont have moonfire or any thrash stacks
those are already a 25% mititgation
I'm not running red moon on that fight
For crafts, is it better to use 289 gear over embelish?
maybe it's a bit more damage but that's far from the problem we're having
red moon feels clunky and sometimes forces me to swipe so I tend to avoid it more than most
Moonfire does nothing for dotc so
I guess its split on who is running rm on tjat fight
Its just so much upfront damage idk
yeah looking at the fight timings now it's pretty clear. General does the tankbuster almost instantly when returning (no mf or thrash stacks), Commander does his 20s after returning meaning full stacks
Yeah
So basically General easily does up to 33% more dmg just because you dont have time to put thrash and mf mitigation up. Logs don't seem to work correctly for those mitigations
Shes a ho
I hate her
So much
Is it okay to have venel die when the others are around 30%
I feel like the loss of the mechanics makes up for the slow ramp
Healing wise
Our biggest issue is just healers going oom
Sometimes we fuck up the taunt swaps. It gets messy when the charge baits are in Narnia
I see all the best tanks using fluent form, yet I have no clue why. Anyone care to fill me in? dont we jsut sit in bearform all the time anyway, aside from when we use Hotw?
So should we kill venel first and just do the other 2 at 30%
Cuz they stop doing mechanics when one dies right
It is nice for removing snares too
It's a little bit more dmg when using HotW (no other dmg talents to replace it in the class tree). There is a useful hidden interaction with fluid form as well (a bug). If you manually switch to bear form you get the same rage as if you used mangle (if you used mangle at least once in your previous bear form)
So for example you end a pack, run to next pack in travel form, switch to bear manually before pull, you have 42 rage instead of 25
Pretty useful to have that one ironfur up on pull
hello guys im kinda a imortal bear with 290ilvl but for some reason in boss fights i struggle to get 50k dps :x i see guardians do 70/80/90k dps whats the secret? :x kinda new to tanking and dps always was healer main
Are you using apex
Are you taling raid or m+ bosses?
Oh true
m+ nopex build doesnt deal more than 50-60k on bosses
raids!
well you need to play a raid build for starters
and it's hard to say after that without a log
if you have the correct buiild the next step is linking a log
Is healer top prio to use symbio relationship or like some melee dps? Dont know on who to click it on higher keys tbh
So how could a bear do 100k dps ST in a m+?
they arent
Play a ST raid build in M+
And have said boss die veryyyyyyyy quickly
I mean even with apex in m+ I am around 50-60kish
Cause that's an AoE build, and you presumably have AoE talents and trinkets
throw it on the squishiest dps
for the meta comp it's aug all the way
Probably, I can do over 100k for sometime, but until boss dies it gets down
one of my biggest questions if its worth it losing 60 haste to have the 4 tier set, i had the hero piece and got the boe
Your stats don't matter
+60 haste is not going to make or break anything
I'd rather just have 4p on in case you decide to press maul once ever with the buff up
if you lose 60 haste you will do 30% less damage
If you never ever ever ever EVER plan on pressing maul, you can just run 2p
But you don't really gain anything
Specific* stats aren't that important for bear
ok im gonna convert it then
In raid you 100% should play with maul, apex and 4p
People playing no apex in raid 
Dont forget mangle and not if bound
nah damage doesn't matter in raid /s
survivability is king!
I used to be first 
Survival is fun but I prefer MM generally
They keep nerfing my boy
beast master languishing
Which is your favorite survival ability
the thing is i barely need to use defensives in raid i wanted to deal more dmg :x
Then you 100000% want 4p
Then play apex lol
oh yeah i'm just being silly
With maul, apex and all that
who said i wanst playing apex?
Man, I'm just covering all the bases since you asked about wearing 4p
Which feels like an entry-level question
Well if u are why would you drop 4p lol
And a lot of flavour of the month bears are running the no-maul M+ build in raids (this is not good)
guys like i said im a noob i was just asking questions x)
Think of all the damage you do on void orbs and alleria adds tho
I was just covering all the bases in one reply instead of possibly going through 8 replies
I'm over here wondering why it's so easy to get oranges this tier on bear... I suppose that explains a lot.
A lot of tanks in general don't believe in doing damage
(Ignore the 30k damage on boss)
So just showing up with a mindset of doing damage nets you purple parses
they got buffed like every hotfix so far
I got a 94 on chimmy 
the bear population has also just been famously awful
so like if you kind of know your rotation, raid parsing has always been soooo easy
My 97 hasn't locked in yet. 🙁
that's just tank parsing in general
Yeah, it's a problem that "plagues" all tanks, but bears are especially hit by it with the reputation of the "easy tank for noobs"
not just bear
99 on dragons as blood, ahh
like in tww I think s1 pala was one of the biggest offenders
When DRW and procs all line up for orbs
because the m+ build did negative st

yes i prog as blood, guild didnt need bear
and you'd see people run it in raid and it was just painful
sanlayn is fcking op with execute death strikes
I have yet to get a 99 in mythic. But I did get a 99 on my first clear of HC L'ura which I was pretty happy about, given it's kinda-sorta difficult (But not for tanks)
Lura is nap pov for tanks
It really is to be fair
That's great, and I don't want to rain on your parade or anything
Im looking forward to it on mythic
But a LOT of higher end guilds skipped heroic l'ura entirely
That was us, to be fair. We skipped it and eventually came back to it, lol
ye i hate that boss
Crown is easy for tanks outside of P1 at least
Fucking dps
I'm perma on for P1
But then p2 + p3 come and it's so chill
we're about to start mythic l'ura prog only like 2-3 people on the roster have curve
very funny
When healers and tanks have to fucking do 50x the work of dps on paladins
if u pay a little attention.. its always dps who complain huh
We take the shit out for you, we stack shit for you, we plant the soaks for you.
All you have to do is soak and bait
Stack for soaks, and bait the charge
That's it
And they cant do the bait
Ever
Its too hard
I get that complaint every time
Like fuck off
And dps yelling for me to stack the bosses
While theyre fucking channeling
spit it out brotha, spit it out here, let ur soul calm down after all the filth is out
Lmao yep, that was definitely a fun time for me as well
Cuz he was bitching the bosses werent pixel stacked for 2 seconds
Like really man
Just shut up
Anywyas
I hate dps
let me guess, devourer dh
well that was my next guess
During raid dps should stfu
Funny, frost mage cleave is insanely lenient these days
Im aware
Alright chill buddy
tehn u can spi out what u want and say whats wrong
lmao
but hes right tho...
And where they were stacked melee could cleave them
hes fkin right...
So i just went off on him
He's not really
Dps telling tanks how to tank mid prog when they've never experienced the tank mechs should be quiet lol.
I don't want to waste a night of prog if a dps has figured something out but they're not allowed to talk
yes dps part is the most important, but i guess... tanks know better how to tank
Bro didnt know the bosses cant move while theyre casting
agree
but i mean
Mid pull?
I will let them know what I think and why it's a bad idea if it is
i tell them theyre a bunch of morons
It's better to mute the raiders and listen to some chill music
and to let me go
Unfortunately there are also a lot of situations where tanks are like this
And they're just flatout wrong about it
agree too
Sure
I don't need arrogant tanks who think they're flawless
I had to come in for alleria and beloran and I hated every minute of it
but if tank does the right, and mechanic was executed
why would some1 complain? just for purpose?
In the case of a boss not being stacked because it's channeling, I would laugh at the raider telling the boss to move
complaining about something such minor like inch of boss wasnt aligned.. i mean
Some people are just complainers
There's no real dps check on paladins anymore anyway
Im talking mid pull
It can be a valid complaint
Yes
hard this
Idc if they talk between pulls
You can spot the type often by how they complain about someone failing. Then next pull they fail the same mechanic and complete silence
Yeah we call those people morons and they quickly stop
Or ''Don't hit my crystal with your beam!'' into ''Don't drop your crystal where I need to move in with my beams''
Sounds like a range parselord 
Personally, I will never understand the people who treat raid as a single-player game
only time i almost lost my mind when our dps players told to move salhadar away from orb when he is CASTING THE TANK BUSTER
That goes for arrogant dps who thinks the world revolves around them just as much as people who mute everyone and blast music
I raid because I like having fun with friends and killing bosses as a team
If I had to sit in silence mid pull without being allowed banter (within reason) then I would rather just quit
if playing m+ nopex EC build, how reliable topgear sims are if u never cast maul but sims use it?
Your preferred stats don't change between using maul or not
The gear comparison on top gear is still fine
sorry i meant the lack of fans here
I like BM too, but MM goes pew pew
i like my pet army
So jealous. Last time raiding felt like it was fun was during Sepulcher iirc. Has become more and more of a burden, despite sticking to social guilds. I'm currently at the point of 'if I could get 4pc similarly fast without raiding I'd ditch it entirely"
my most fun raid has to be amirdrassil, soloing fyrakk as blood every time
Did the same on sylvanas with bear, some memories are strong 👍
eww sanctum
yeah i'm on PL now and it's like whatever i do not care about rexxars pets
black arrow is cool but im worried the talent for darkhounds will override my dire stable glyph
i should probably just test to see
Our RL unfortunately is a rdps and often does this lol
Hes gotten better about it after me and my co tank talked to him about it
But we still get blamed for shit outside our control on newer prog bosses
An add lived at 4% from the middle of the room to chimmy and tanks got blamed for not having the boss at the very edge of the platform lol
We have 3 Monks and 3 druids, I typhooned and ursol'd it
Still made it to boss lmao
Could you have prevented it walking in by taking a few steps though?
Because that is sort of your job on chim, regardless of if the rest of the raid team fucked up too
Not on my bear i had moved to be closer to the add to vortex, I mightve been able to if i dashed?
But taking a back shot with dash on the off chance it didnt die vs dps not doing 4% to a smally
I definitely could've done SOMETHING, and i already had with typhoon and vortex. But yeah i weighed it and just thought it would die
If i was made aware no one was gunna hit it i could've moved it before hand
It was also an awkward point where I would've had to put people at risk by walking into dissonance range
Basically there are 3 types of mistakes in raid and m+.
- Someone else fucked up and there was nothing I could do to save it
2.Someone else fucked up but I could save it by playing better myself - I fucked up
Many lump 2 into 1 and blame others for failing
best improvement comes from focusing on turning mistakes of those sorts into saves
I think there's reasonable reason to not have to burden one role with other peoples fuck ups though. Moving chimmy far away from adds should be a last ditch effort and called out. Particularly when trying to get the big add on the boss during consume.
Cuz you lose a lot of uptime on boss when you move him away from big guy
You wouldn't die to a backshot, that's not how bear works
Moving boss away during small adds and then back to the big add once smallies are dead is pretty normal
Well sure that is the optimal situation. But your situation as follows: 1. Move the boss and risk some raid dmg and loss of uptime 2. Dont move and hope that add gets killed in time
For me option 2 is a lot safer
after pull/wipe you can discuss that hey guys maybe kill the add further so i dont have to go to africa
? Spec persistence?
but saying that wow the dps players are failing and there was nothing I could do is a bit of a copout
If backshots were dangerous for bears, you would be dead on any regular auto where you happen to not dodge
I think I move the boss away like 50% of time on our farm kills
Anyway if you play with competent people the big add can get out of the realm so fast that you have to kite the whole time
No, I am aware, my sus emote was for your accidental innuendo lol
Thats not how that mech works lol
If you have him in the right spot he will always reach the boss
same in m+, instead of ''wow dps players are shit they didnt interrupt the add they marked and we wiped'' instead it sometimes could be ''Incap, ping add, typhoon if still not kicked, maybe manage to interrupt yourself, save pull''
Within the consume
That is exactly how that works, actually
If you bring the add out super fast it instantly starts walking with half the raid still inside
If you break it out towards the end of the inside phase it doesn't start walking early, and the entire raid can hit it
Ah yes having the add walk 10 more seconds towards the boss doesn't mean you have to move the boss
Big brain time
it's a none-issue because you can just kite if you need it
If youre late you have to move the boss towards the big add
You don't, though?
If its killed instantly it reaches the boss on its spot
There's no dps check on the fight
You don't have to care about min-maxxing killing boss
This might have been true week 1 or 2
have mythic raids become 10 times easier or ppl i raided with during shadowlands were aids?
You right I can interrupt/cc every add set so I should do it
Ya know I feel like using frenzied regen pre dungeon key is really slept on
Just because you have the ability to do something doesnt mean you should be required to
Or expected to
Its reasonable imo to expect others to do their job
FR then Berserk and enjoy your free shield with your charge back up
Well that wasnt really the point of the discussion. Of course you should cc every add set or move the boss if it's a choice between wiping or not
It is, but if I can prevent a wipe I will
Is there a bug with the current Guardian Druid taunt? I don't use mouseover, but the target I'm hovering over is being taunted.
And actually if you look it from optimization point of view, it should be you or healers doing the cc while dps only cleave
Wiping on purpose (which is not what you did) just because "well the dps didn't do their job!" isn't good
first M bosses in shadowlands were easy as well - its also much easier to gear right now so we're overgearing raids much faster
Shades from waking nightmare occasionally will spawn/hit things you are targeting out of pull. But there isn’t a taunt bug if you are sure you taunted them
Definitely not lol
Is everyone on the midnset that ''We will vortex the adds and all dps should kill them before they get out''
or
cleave adds and tank will probably move if they get close
if you are on the first mindset and others on second, obviously they feel like you fucked up
We only cleave the big add
Thats our plan
We have 3 Monks 2 locks a frost mage 3 druids
Either you have a macro, or an addon enabling mouseover in the settings
This wasn't just about taunt, but there was also an issue where silence suddenly occurred even at distances that were out of range.
I just tell everyone to "hit the fucking adds, nobody cares about your boss damage if we wipe"
Yeah
Although we're not rekilling it anytime soon most likely
I'm not using any add-ons except nsrt. Does nsrt have provocation-related features?
Which is wild
The thing is that there are so many dps players that many will have the mindset that someone else will do something. Usually that someone else is tank in that situation because tank can move the boss
So it might be a bit unfair to only blame you
No, it wouldn't be about taunt. It would be about mouseover itself
Quick question please, when pulling with moonkin hotw on spread pulls atm I'm mf on each pack then hit it, but I've seen people to say hotw then start hitting them with mf. If I do it that way round would it still get full value if all the packs aren't in combat with me when I first cast it?
And then they'll complain the boss wasnt on top of the big add 
Which is my fault as well
Lul
Double check your settings here
anyone got regrowth macro so it doesnt change your form and works only when proc ?
but it's the reality what will happen if you dont go through expectations
Are you playing reinvigoration?
dream of cenarius
In our plan moving the boss was supposed to be called out and never expected unless it was the big add
Yeah I know, I'm asking if you're playing with reinvigoration
And i still called that out
Then my quick-fix doesn't work
Since we have infinite rops and knocks
DoC stacks up to 4 though, and is confused by frenzied regen for a big heal
It makes sense
Do you often shift out of form by pressing regrowth when you don't have a proc?
it automatically shifts me out of form if its not proc
Yes, does that happen to you often?
It's not checked. That's strange.
not many times
I dont get why boomies can just cast regrowth and not leave form
But we cant
And feral cant
Without shitty procs
We can use moonfire
Thank you for your opinion. I changed my character to a Death Knight and cleared it without a problem, but I don't know why this problem only occurs in Guardian Druid.
moonfire hasnt been a caster thing since legion
Your options are:
1: Make it more visible when it's safe to press regrowth through the cooldown manager
2: Rely solely on frenzied regen using your Dream of Cenarius procs
3: Swap the point out of reinvigoration, and swap dream of cenarius to dreamguide
Yeah unsure, there's one more place where you can do mouseover stuff but I genuinely can't remember where it is at the moment
Vanilla
What was broken about it
Food is done and I don't know if I can quickly find it again
But they had like super-macros that would correctly choose to power shift and mana pot and stuff
And we were hit in the crossfire
No official explanation from blizz, but this is the most likely thing to have prompted it
Weird
It was just a form macro
And checked if you had a proc
And were in form or not
If you were in cat and had a proc: regrowth was cast, if not in form and no proc it was also cast, but if you had no proc and in form it just did nothing
One weird form thing i wish theyd fix is the owl form hearthstone toy bug where it just
Doesnt work
algathar is a nice place to spend my rolls on a fresh bear right?
has puzzlebox too
Yeah AA is good for the fast powerspike. But for a fresh bear alt, nothing beats emptying windrunner loot table.
Idk i dont like either of those trinkets
Neither are good for raid
But it is a good table
I personally like seat
If ur just emptying a table
It gets you a bunch of tier
If you like puzzlebox, AA is good
hmm now I have too much choice 🙁
If you don't WRS is better
it's bis for raid right? its just a raid alt
Basically if you plan on raiding i would do aa until you get pbox
Then yes, AA for puzzlebox
If you got a weapon in that process, go seat imo
Only one trinket and its not that bad
Its that 90second damage on use isnt it
If you empty out seat its a full armor set and the rings are decent
That or the globule for a defensive option in keys
You'll want gaze/plume for your static anyways
The dps one seems decently tuned, was surprised how close it is to similar ilvl statsticks.
Yeah
Its very good for mass aoe
Uncapped iirc
I never ended up getting it to test but seems good for damage option for weekly keys
whats the fasest way to get myth crests?
witch achive
the hero achievement is what let's you convert
it's possible to have the myth one and not the hero one 
because one is based on average ilvl and the other is by slot
Yeah its cuz embellishments exist
my chud dragon at 285 ilvl with champ gloves not being able to uptrade
