yeah i can see the HPS and DTPS on clears is so much higher
roughly 50% more damage taken between heroic and mythic from what i'm seeing
no the logic here is wrong, face2face pointed it out to me a week or two ago and I thought I fixed it but I guess I just never put up a PR for it 
your log with the fix would look more like
you guys know how Loom'ithar Primal Spellstorm baits were bugged and would target Rogues and DKs despite being ranged mechs?
@proven phoenix put together a commentary of his week 1 Vorasius kill. I think it is a very good watch if you are struggling with the spec
is that same thing happening on Crown with the void zone baits?
i was always under the impression the first void zone is always baited on ranged, but that the purple arrows for the 2nd and 3rd zones can appear on anyone
i'm trying to figure out if it's a ranged-only mech or not
Have you read this channel lately, this is going to help many
Phased you’re the goat
oh god the thick accent
I'm convinced commentary videos are the best way to improve
I agree lol
Fits the channel. Everyone who has a guide on there has a non-US accent
Where am I going wrong if I’m going oom in keys? 12/14’s. Like I can make it to each boss but gotta fully drink
sometimes peoples UI is so hard to see
Are you running ws for keys?
Yeah
Next time we are gonna hire some Irish dude from the countryside to narrate this shit and you will cry
This is the Vorasius content channel now
Omg it’s so good
Gonna try and team up with Phased for the other bosses too. Particularly Dragons ->
yes
Surely such a huge contribution deserves a green or orange name
lmfao is that all u can think of man

I will try and speak slower though next time....
l o l
you could get me to yap a 3000 word essay on any boss
First question is he to soak regrowth on players with mastery stacks, does that mean players with rejuv?
It's hard isn't it, there are too many things you want to say
yes
mastery stacks are just hots
K
Yeah that’s in the first min lol
good work by that guy then, presenting crucial information early
Yes
I tend to only use rg when it procs unless I absolutely have to in keys. That is usually a mana eater.
and I keep rejuv out and wild growth
Careful with that, Regrowth with a few rejuvs out is actually very cheap
loved the commentary
do more please
then swiftmend rejuv everytime it is up
and nature swift with convoke for my get out of jail heals
yes it was something I had to unlearn this tier, I still have muscle memory to only regrowth between 8-12 stacks
You can only get the add once so after the first fixate you get, you can just go mid instantly 
but even at 6 regrowth is very good
this was 3 weeks ago
Oh
we didnt have such tech yet
this is the kind of info i love
I just find people are taking constant dmg. Maybe they just stand in too much shit I’d
It says 11 min ago
ty
well I meant our kill
Oh
but yeah maybe I should've mentioned that
that is real lore tho
u can only get picked once
Oh yeah we can add stuff to video description if we want
I suppose one of us can just comment on it
yeah well that too lol was in a 13+ and they didn't know how to do the piles in the last boss in pit 😭
BE AWARE: YOU CAN ONLY GET FIXATED ONCE PER FIGHT
we are the vorasius channel after all
Sym tank and keep lifebloom stack on them or the squishy of the group, then wildgrowth, swiftmend and rejuvs across the board. Use rg when it procs. Then if you need the emergency heals I have a macro for nature swift/convoke
i so agree ya
i was watching vick's earlier
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/ptGgJTxawB36AVP8?fight=last&type=summary
anything i can do better healing wise?
well you are spamming rejuvs into full hp bars
oh wait wowlog has this, that's awesome wtf. i guess there's enough logs on that site to split into ilvl brackets
It's basically a useless metric, I'd avoid
Yup, was it your vid for pres evoker i saw? Either way that helped loads
worse players and people just take it less seriously
good that i mentionned it then
Ok I give up what raid frames are you guys using?
gotcha
grid2
Just did dragons with the cell fork and the private auras are a mess
yes we are the premier vorasius channel now
that boss doesnt stand a chance
Yep 
why it showing paladin spell instead of the breath bro
I think thats just a bad way to show private auras now because a lot of bosses have more than 1 on each player
Yeah
I'm just curious how I'm meant to have room for half of these damn spells on frames lmfao
how come these embellished boots dont show any hps or dps increase?
My frames are just increasingly a mess
Yea pres evoker is definitely an interesting thing to try and learn when you are new to healing, but i enjoy both evoker and druid so just been watching vids and combing logs to improve. Long ways to go but these commentary videos are very good considering these are the fights im on
Just haven't been implemented yet. I can add to my list
These effects that require you to look for an orb and then grab it are almost always bad
can you send me your grid2 profile? Does it handle priv auras better?
I use nsrt to handle private auras
it has an option to make private aura anchors on raid frames
that's not a bad shout
Yea super useful for 1st boss voidspire for dispelling
anythign else
I mean you d find plenty wrong, if you go by the timeline. You re slamming 10 rejuvs before pulls. Thats simply not how you should play keys.
Do you know how much does aracanoweave lining increase primary stats and for how much? Is it 24 like its shown on website tooltip?
im scared of people getting 1 tapped 🙁
24 is correct but that's the average. While it's active it's higher
Well, you have to learn to trust your hots and your group to not get 1 tapped
Spend more time helping with cc and doing damage
Slamming heals into full hp bars is not proper gameplay
noted 🙂
if youre scared you should lower the key level and pay attention to cast timers and mob abilities
if you know when damage occurs you know how much to expect based on key level, and you can heal accordingly
I keep forgetting to log personally lol. I have personally felt better holding back heals and not keeping hots up unless it's just rough and they don't know what to do or not stand in.
I just ran a key with verdancy+photo and something real weird seems to be happening with who Verdancy hits...
- My efflo hit the tank 655 times and me 79 times (i.e. I usually wasn't standing in it)
- Meanwhile verd hit me 1398 times and the tank only 339 times?
I havent verified it every single patch but that is known from since Verdancy was added, you the caster always seem to count as a valid target and it prefers yourself
Huh. Fair enough.
Tank at 339 sounds weird tho. Were they not in efflo often?
Efflo hit them 655 times. They were my LB target
Ig it isnt weird
If most of the group is in
Cuz then it's like always you vs the other 4 splitting procs
But yeah this verdancy quirk is old
1st image Efflo, 2nd image Verdancy
Ok that maybe just buggy as hell haha
Can you link the log?
I'm in the pooper rn but I wanna look at the events later
Just watched it for druid. Yea main takeaway for me is regrowth more and stop overly rejuving. Its a habit I have to break for sure. I did get an unlucky pull where i needed to tranq the last add spawn but got an add on me and couldn’t move freely enough to get off a meaningful tranq
How to go oom 101
now ur spoiled
i don't have to drink ever anymore..
rip
Yeah this ain't right lol... I wonder if it's Blooming Frenzy doing this?
At 00:37:308 I apparently got hit with all three verd procs
Looks like it's going on pets a TON, even when players in Efflo are missing HP
@main timber this looks worth investigatin / reporting, warrior for instance is clearly in Efflo and missing HP, not getting overhealed, but 2 of these Blooms here the Verdancy goes on a pet instead
oh? What is best then? This is just kinda an overall. Not what I do at once. I don't usually have issues with mana.
You should be pressing regrowth, like a lot
but that drains my mana the most
I might be missing something in my current tree setup
With like 5 rejuvs out it's cheaper than rejuv
hmm let me login and look
Why is liveliness always picked in top m+ builds over MS? Is the dps loss that much? Like 60% increase to rip seems like a lot to me and you never have to worry about mana. I get that liveliness gives a bump to rake, sunfire, and moonfire but if you run starfall and starsurge, you'll never run out of mana and the damage drop can't be that bad.
hmm idk this is my M+ tree I have setup right now
Because you should never have to worry about mana anyways
why does consuming soul of the forest with a swiftmend at the end of the regrowth cast not consistant anymore?
it still happens, but it's not consistant
chinese druid Lota on his stream does it almost consistantly
thought maybe there was some tech
im ngl it is always consistent for me still
Mostly because mana shouldnt be an issue so far, the spec's been able to last >4 min of the hardest bosses to heal up to +20s, everything else doesnt have enough healing uptime to drain your mana like that + you drop combat and regen more than in combat, or drink as a last resort
if I want to do it I can manage it every single time
I can still do it consistently too
I guess, when I started m+ I was only 250s and was going oom (likely skill issue) but when I swaped to MS no more oom. I'm 268 now and don't think I have mana issues now but the what from MS to liveliness doesn't seem worth it but I'm not sure what I'm missing
Livliness about 2-3% healing, and some dps
maybe ping/spellQueue window issues, spellQueue for me is on 180
I can not replicate that at all, are we talking about the same spell queue gimmick?
yes
idk i tested 25 casts in a row, i got like 5
I can double SOTF with Regrowth into Rejuv
I cant do Regrowth into Swiftmend and back buff
the damage drop is that bad
i also noticed its much better with the double swiftmend talent
the extension swiftmend barely works
Spell queue 400
if youre playing starfire+starsurge in keys instead of playing in melee, sure take MS
So I don’t queue it
but it's a big loss and it's not recommended
Isn't your whole keyboard already bound to regrowth
1 bind for swiftmend 1 bind for swiftmend cqs
Wym barely works
I take ripe and rake for single target and starfall for aoe pulls.

Weird. I only take VI and can do it every time
correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't Starfire doing 2x aoe damage a bug we expect them to fix?
If you're trying to pad with Starfire, MS is not bad. It's just a discussion whether that is worth talenting into or not. But in this case, MS is potentially a DPS gain.
Depends how high on their priority list it is lol
I'm also doing the rake rip Starfire moonkin tech and my DPS has increased a fair bit
what if I take MS for mana
But I don't expect it to stay
Feature*
Was Dread Breath not made a regular debuff? I still don't see my dispell glow when someone has it. Same with first buff dispells :/
I see my dispel glow on it just fine
the target is private still
only the fear is different
What frames are you using? Danders?
grid
I mean I'm not super try hard and just want a safe and robost build that keeps everyone alive in my +10-12 runs I've been doing. But I've been starfire moonkin for trash aoe pulls and for boss I'll rake,ripe, and bite for damage I dropped innervate since I never need it now.
Oh I might have to try it
I see it on danders fine too
Do ya all have any must haves for addons that are best for healing?
honestly, didn't even know it was bugged.
I'll try resetting my Danders settings idk
Yeah sure, that isnt something I do but it isnt the end of the world mate, all g
Starfire is cleaving 2x as much as the tooltip says / is intended. Wcyd.
yeah that's kind of why i'm hesitant to say, "yeah, that's a great idea!"
if MS does more damage than Liveliness with Starfire, go ahead and take it. be prepared for them to fix it and that to no longer be true.
i think Starfire is a clunky ability and it feels like shit to use, and my dps in melee is fine anyways
im also not trying to pad on AoE when my DPS are ending the pull at 500k
I like the thrash weave much better than canceling starfire casts to move out of aoe
Or otherwise just banging down the caster / dangerous mob faster
gotcha I get that feeling about starfire. I get the sense is that the biggest drawback from taking MS over liviliness I'm leaving some healing on the table but it isn't all that much.
guys serious question, how do rest druids even heal very high keys? I have do admint that i have my problems in some keys on around 13-14 where I cant seem to top ppl up quickly enough. Its easy when you have cds but sometimes ppl just die and It seems like I cant do anything against it
Apex and SOTF are broken effects
I had never considered using thrash.
It isnt worth much if you're taking MS
But it's nice to fill time / do some padding without swapping 1 class tree talent and 1 spec tree talent to use Starfire
Was there a secret hotfix to reforestation this week? Last week I was able to build up stacks before a boss pull and pop my ToL right before
Yes but not secret, I think they posted it in hotfixes no?
chinese players do a lot of things that go against conventional wisdom. the language barrier and separation between publishers makes it difficult to recommend following any of their players. they also have accelerated progression/increased reset frequency, so it's like they're playing an entirely different game.
It's in the patch notes
Ahh….i thought it was my addons or game so I kept restarting. lol
LB/Rejuvs/WG out, hit regrowth. Pretty easy gameplay
yea, I guess I'll experiment with liveliness. MS has been my safety net and scared to drop it. I know I'm not playing optimally, but with MS I can just constantly refresh rejuvs and never have to worry about mana. It's been useful for when I didn't know all the damage sources but now that I've learned a lot of them I guess I can be a little more mindful
weekly keys aren't a big deal, so play how you want. just know that mana issues indicate gameplay issues, so if you want to get better then you should assess what's wrong. dropping MS would be the first step.
Yep that makes sense
I think it's important to get a sense of the timing of things, and mentally noting down what is dangerous about each dungeon
any1 know how to get imperator mythic debuffs on grid2, i have private auras enabled but still having to switch to danders just to see them
add an indicator with private auras
oh so just have nothing enabled there? i had unit types enabled
what addon do you guys use for targeted abilities now?
real
exwindtools has kickable cast ability tracker
Can you link it? I’ve been searching through the most recent ones and don’t see it.
Mythic Dungeon Casts
i don't use targeted casts, my casting bars on nameplates are noticeable enough
i've felt a lot more comfortable this season because i put a ton of effort into learning each key and pull during preseason
Thank you!
Just abuse china build teehee
I keep losing to the chinese in pokemon dont even
It's ok I'm about to xfer my shinies from Z-A and it'll be goated again
Cant lose with shiny Delphox
hi noob question, does anyone have a "good" video for checking out details of resto? new to it
Taking any hps loss to do more dps as a healer is trolling your team
Why I would never take MS
A lot of video content is immediately outdated, so it’s not your best content to consume to learn
its like news, you should be getting your gameplay tips from multiple sources
yeahhh thats waht i was noticing lol
ill just use Dreamgrove
the best videos to watch are just povs
and vods
there are a few vids that aren't bad and will explain relevant basics, but you should consult guides and ask questions here to learn more when you feel like you're starting to struggle
phased has a good commentary video on voracius
ill check it out, ty!
Credit to Phasedruid for the video. He ran the no-Apex build with Convoke instead of Incarnation.
You can find his log of the fight here: https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/x8dZm6HcvrG1QKyC?fight=66&type=healing
For more content, consider joining the QE discord: https://discord.gg/8arZt4vfc4
well damn don't spoil me now lol, thank you!
phased 
I'm like scared to ask anything now lol.. So you'd go regrowth and wildgrowth more over swiftmend rejuv and rejuv?
Phased should make more content
I been pressing regrowths buddy
You should see the light too
ao
ao
how does it not just drain your mana lol
awawa
Cause rg costs less than rejuv at 4 stacks of abundance
And just using VI and sotf rejuvs you can maintain 5 perma
ahh I see now
what causes abundance to fall off? or does it do it after X amount of time? I can't seem to see what is triggering it
Real
8 perma almost
this is like a life hack lmao
i noticed that during Nicks RWF, there were plenty of times he just sat around 5 stacks
Try pressing regrowth on different people
They need to buff nb by 100%
With convoke and tranq you have 9 average abundance stacks.
you definitely get some healing value out of extra RJ if you manage to time your ramp perfectly, so more is better, but spamming RG gets you a ton of NB cleave
Or remove it im done
yeah, i tried just relying on SotF + Rejuv and convoke but preramping RG didn't seem to net more than ramping with RJ, it was just more mana efficient
the extra rejuvs definitely make a difference in HPS during the actual damage event
You dont preramp rg tho
then call it a ramp, whatever you like
its just pressing RG before damage instead of after
I really dont know if rejuving more is more hps
the most I do is one sotf rg before tranq
So I notice Rejuv -> sometimes stacks 1-2 abundance Swiftmend -> Rejuv 4-5 stacks of abundance then RG like crazy lol
then WG here and there and your mana barely moves
excited for keys later lol
i'm trying to become a VI enjoyer so it was exclusively sotf RJ
but i want to understand when sotf RG is better
Only after tranq or your mana just dissapears
Hey some advice what I should pick? Trinket or ring?
Or in very short fights
sim with QE live
yeah it was crazy, i always thought my mana depleted because i wasnt regrowthing enough
but there is such a thing as not using rejuv enough
isn't that a haste/mastery ring
ending fights at 60% mana means i should have rejuv'd more
You just send the sotf on rejuvs
Or regrowthed more
With sotf 🙂
big true
it's this one
Must be nice
could be better but i was proud of it

but i was struggling to burn mana
like my bar just wouldnt go down
definitely could have dropped MS i think
but what would i take? HB? liveliness?
I see it going down tho?
If you did lura you would just not be able to heal with that many wgs
yeah ik, i'm only thinking for shorter fights
what are yall using to know when to start ramping? Just DBM or wow timer, or something else? i'm struggling with raid healing but i'm thinking i'm probably just doing ramp ineffectively/at the wrong times and i possibly just need to know dmg profile of the fights better
this was Vorasius and my guild is actually trash, so our kills are longer than average
i'm playing with people who have never gotten CE before and failed to get it every season last expac
I got this from weekly. I am an idiot and did not craft my weapon early on. I have sparks currently to craft a 1 hander. Would the play be to craft Magisters ritual knife and just this off hand with it?
question , what should be the highest Healing Output on resto at midnight ? didnt play him since s2 last addon
even though my main hand would be 285
what does highesto output mean
yes it is haste high mastery
yes just craft a 2h, there is no point using a heroic offhand
take it
from details HP meter
(285+276) / 2 is 280
so what is normally the 1st,2nd and 3rd best healing outpout overall in a dungeon
why would you settle for a 280 ilvl weapon combo
rejuv/regrowth top 2
True
I can just wait the extra week for another spark
yeah if you didnt craft a weapon at all and you sent your sparks, gg
with no myth weapon in vault you played yourself
right now ws is far behind kotg or?
tried some some fights on random pug
and cant get near to my kotg hps
in raid there's no question
just save up 4 sparks in case you don't get any myth weapon options in the next few weeks, and if you get a myth 1h/oh then you can craft a 1h/oh instead
kotg is massively ahead
i saw a top log running WS
yeah seems like log pushing or smth 😛
my friend was looking at it so i didnt go too deep but i thought it was weird
ws blooms doesnt heal any good imho
Llorgs
was random on chim
I dont know, maybe with tol
tol is more rejuv oriented
why would you not want to buff rejuvs
you also spawn treants
yeah actually
I said maybe with tol
That was a 180k pull
Look at your kotg logs
Plus it will buff the new apex more
With implant vi on you
strategic infusion is crazy what the fuck
squish said the module isnt working atm
he didnt submit the PR for it but it should be much lower
Even if its not
it can't be 9%
- just raw healing on the hot and buesting growth
?
Root network did 4.5%
And creepers did another 5
Its literally the same lmao
hmm
sylvan beckoning is pretty massive too
Dont at me
3.6% on my alleria kill
losing the duration on refo and the CDR on SM will hurt overall, idk how you calculate for that
And dream bloom?
I guess it's not that far behind
Im seeing its ahead
Except you lose the cool shit
Cdr, control, longer refo which u wont play next patch
overall ws talents did more hps then kotg
if you're playing heavy RG you also should have higher rate of Blooms
Sm cdr and control of the dream is important i think if you are cancelaura maxing
Am I reading this right? WS raid is back?
control of the dream is so good
wait till 12.0.5 and ppl test lol
i couldn't pl ay without it
Control is mandatory if you play bird and convoke
No because heavy rg comes with a lot of talents that blocks you from taking ms
🙁
The extra rg is not even close to as important as the wg you can’t afford to cast
Tree 
Bird is just too good for voke
show tree
disagree
Tree wont cover solo color swaps
ToL would be amazing with Apex in 12.0.5, if you could only play ToL + cenarius guidance + reforestation.
And the intermission is just soloed by the mw anyway
I’m on my phone but you’re simply not spamming regrowth and taking ms
Idk how that’s hard to understand
it's not hard, i just want to understand more
you get away with saying cryptic shit and not sharing info way too much
Lmao he can do what he wants


Tree on second color swap?
I kinda blast intermission im ngl
The one with evang and conduit
Even without tree

yeah why not
Tree is for noobs
what evang
Because its double cded by the disc and monk
the one at 0:51?
The 2nd one yes
disc pops on pull
Sounds weird
and intermission
Same
Maybe I move the disc to that
You don’t need a cd on 3rd color swap?
it's up
4th
Right after the double tick at the end of egg
Oh after intermission?
good amz point
We had the disc move the evang there because me and mw cover egg
Empty the bad again
And then we are dry
And people just flop to the double tick at the end plus insta color swap and soak orbs
Cause theres no cds
So if you move disc for that part
Making him cd opener is pointless
Just move the evang to 2nd
And you cover first with monk
And then you can probably tree 3rd and it would last whole egg?
That shit is so funny lol
genuinely if there was one of these for every healing class i would watch them
HAHAHA
alright guys empty another bag
Nah the most fun shit is
Personals
Everyone personal and personal again
Then personal again
15 seconds apart
Called by a dk

meanwhile my players are pressing personals when we have healing CDs assigned and they dont have shit when they get targeted by a mech
my personal favorite is "EVERYTHING TO LIVE"
I always call that
what food should i drink between pulls if i dont have mage food?
i dont wanna do the follower dungeon trick to get mage food , i just wanna buy and have some in my bag, but i dont know which one is "best"
Sanguithorn tea
Dps get scared too easily
My favorite is get crown heal absorb and insta self dispel
the crap inkeeper sells. it is better than mage food
and also does hp too
wish it stacked to 200
theres a tea does 8% thats the best, iirc
a lot of them are just bad bc they do it in keys too. they take the damage and press their defensive after.
its just hard playing with a group thats not that capable but wants to be, all you can really do is yell at them to get better and put callouts in their note but they'll still press at the wrong time.
anyone got a grid2 profile they can send me
look at what they actually are
like look at some pov or screenshots before just taking someones profile
have you tried dander frames
@main timber are icyveins and wowhead the same info or you like to spice it up and say different things to cause more chaos ?

Ideally they should match
But they don't update at the same speed so sometimes one will lag behind a little bit
which one is more cancer with their internal markdown ?
its wrong atm
Trying to get my abundance from betterCD manager to a more visible spot, ive trying moving anchors x and y I see where its supposed to be in the 2nd picture but it always reverts back behind my frame, does anyone know how to fix t hat?
phased for President
just got the lightblind wrath trinket, is there anything I should macro it under or just use it on cd/with convoke?
I would make a good president
Hey guys, coming back to rDruid since Legion... I have a couple questions... I read the WoWhead page and everything, been healing +11's but all the time I have been wondering why Wildstalker is more used than KotG in m+? aside from the damage that wildstalker can provide (I can catweave but I'm not very good at it)
And... is there any addon you guys recommend to keep track of HotS? (I mainly rely on animations but sometimes i miss the tick and I reapply the hot)
do not rely on animations
use raid frames
I use grid you can use whatever you want
Cause it does more healing
Simple as
Read the talents
Yeah it's mostly for the mastery and hot bonuses but Ive also done 16s as kotg so it ain't bad and you get to unbind moonfire
I use a lifebloom tracker, tremendous help, lifebloom uptime is now at 99%
@thorn plover check dm
Ok so basically, use grid to track the hots, and Wildstalker helps more with the hots... okay
thanks for the clarification
Great pov video on QE channel bro I watched it and dropped a comment to support your presence
What dragon buff do we take in Algeth'ar? Haste?
hey all, has any1 found a way to add time stamps to the death recap logs ?
I dont know but I suggest you just log everything and check deaths in the log
In-game death recape is very rough
Yeah. The mastery buff has something weird or low with it iirc
yeah, looks like that's what I'm going to have to do. ty
Understatement lol.
Yesterday I clicked recap, showed I died to X. Closed it and reopened it, and it had completely different things in it. Closed it and reopened it again and it had spells from a different boss completely
Seems like a pretty important feature for them to screw up so badly
Myth head to upgrade hero or occlusion?
bright af
Lmao, accidentally copied from snip tool so it's brighter than usual
Is QE live sim back? I haven't used since midnight cause I thought it wasn't working
Oh bless, appreciate it
if you dont have mythic tier you just take the helm its not even close
Yeah, wish it was omission tbh, and sin'dorei came out of my emissary box. Almost like they want me to be crit druid
Ty guys
Hey guys, question was probably asked a million times already, but whar are we thinking of the Crucible of Erratic Energies ? QE says it better thant my 263 Vaelgor, just wanting a second opinion
as long as you've upgraded it in voidstorm, just listen to qe
Ok, will do then, thx for the quick answer !
Wrong ring
If it was the other nexus ring it would be big
Did they change it again
Are we buffed
Did 2 also get nerfed?
a couple days a go it was hotfixed from 5 --> 8 with rank 3 getting nerfed
then they nerfed rank 2 again
probably 30 more changes before the 21st
holy shit is that THE phasedruid from the qelive vorasius video?
the original design was just absurdly overtuned though
still think they're going the wrong way if they want to make us better in raid and worse in m+...
oh yeah they're going to make this spec fucking galactic monster tier in keys and we still wont touch that crap in raids outside of maybe 10 man fights like lura and chim
at least spring blossoms is dead
thank god
hey... i beat a disc priest and an evoker on salad prog kill last night... obv druid is fine
Apex nerfed one day after we notice the new version and call it OP
pres seems to pump throughput this tier
I'm onto you dev in the channel
lmao
i thought @queen marsh was feral only
wait what changed with the apex?
just ptr things
oh
yo-yo tuning daily on the ptr
what is the ptr change?
for the new apex
i see
It was 5++ cuz it supposedly scaled up past 5 still, just not linearly.
But yeah
Needed to nerf it anyways
new apex.. are they reworking it or just tuning numbers?
its different... but same
its still more group healing <_<
ah that's what I was missing, they removed the square root scaling on it
interesting
for m+, which 2 would you run? (currently doing 18s)
not the rank 3? or does rank 2 increase the rank 3 heal by 50%?
its less direct healing on the target and way way more splash
oh cool, thats what i typically want anywya
then i can just keep lifebloom on my tank and care less about juggling it haha
Ah yes just what resto Druids needed to be stronger in 5 man content
right? (shhh)
would be cool if they could reduce cooldown on barkskin and ironbark
When did this happen?
kekw
There was no bluepost.
its ptr...
Does the cdm pandemic alert work for lifebloom?
wowhead is slow
i tried it and it wasn't working so i switched back to 'on expiry' or whatever
dunno
i wish pandemic worked, could keep better uptime probbaly
they've changed the ptr version without a blue post several times now
Interesting. Thanks for sharing.
this looks to be close to where they want it to be, it's still significantly stronger than live
if the dev knew what he was doing he wouldve already made a blue post or reworked our apex
napkin math wise
back in beeta
the only thing thats really grim is next tier or the one after we're going to have an apex oriented tier set
and thats when things get dark
non square root has more of a chance for overhealing otoh
curious to see where it ends up
definitely makes the apex "harder", I guess, to correctly use
since timing sotf is slightly more important
I think it’s good that they changed it this way. It was too overpowered before.
yeah, the original one was just absurdly overtuned
obv feelycraft incoming, but I don't particularly like that photosynthesis seems like extreme value for the talent point spent now though
First all allies, then 8 allies, now 6 allies before you know it we will be at the revolutionary number of 2 allies!
there is a lot of imbalance in talent tree. sucks. feels like you can't make real choices
if its not all allies, im 100% sure we wont use it in raid
and classic spam rg
will be better
I highly doubt that
The splash also hits the target of LB tho, so it's 4.5x Blooms from 5, not much worse
doesnt this happen every time there is a diff build 
The previous version was a 20% healing increase or something and Lexa would have dropped because it only hit 8 
yeah the original version was like 300% ish stronger in raid than the current apex
lmao
Well, in M+ I suppose is what I'm thinking of here, since in raid it still might not hit main target
I'm not sure
I just dont believe any version of this thats blatantly overpowered doesnt get neutered by next tier release back into being useless
the likely outcome is it will get hotfixed if it's extremely out of line, or it will get lumped in with their balance changes (which they originally stated would be monthly, but who knows)
it's changing almost daily on ptr
so
but at least ill have an op talent while im working on lura I guess
i'm just happy they're looking at the class. better than some other seasons when it just felt like whatever was going wasn't changing
also with the whole voidforge thing, does anyone whose been on top of ptr know if I need to loot a real weapon or will there still be stuff for crafted weps?
it works for crafted weapons
tyvm
dont worry the apex tier set will save it, just like the hero tree tier set 'saved' kotg
lux soil apex <_<
kill me
lolol
cant wait to get nerfhammered cause my class is op in bloodlust again
actually we're still fucking broken in bloodlust/pot
but like we dont have much else going on
my paladins kill is just like 'wow guess where he pressed potion?'
flourish when
coulda pressed potion twice smh
yeah our priest tried to have me do it on pull, but the 3 min one was just working out better
especially when we were 5 healing, then we went back to 6 heal cause it turns out a sub rogue on that fight is marginally more damage than a holy priest and PI on a hunter
no wonder dps hate council fights
the balance is always so atrocious for them on em
so pretty
@gentle nova
do you have any number of rgs
you aim
soft aim
yall ever just keep lifebloom on yourself during a whole prog fight
yep
ok word
depending on the fight
Do you maintain a number of rg 
does astral influence add range to the extra hots from sotf?
How does tracking number of regrowth hots benefit?
just positive feedback to make ego go up
its for when they rework our apex to give us regrowth version of abundance

im gonna add a counter for the total number of blooms since the start of the fight
it will be called redundance
Yeah I don't get this part
Unsure how the number of regrowths will impact my decision making at any point
its been asked for a couple times so i built it, i dont ask questions
Very noble of you
Im just curious if he does since i dont see the point of tracking them otherwise
nice to know only
so you can juice the tranq
If you need help in the future, I'm quite a graphic designer myself (I made my own profile pic here)
It doesn't really change how you play, but it technically means your regrowth is slightly more efficient due to Nature's Bounty. I can see why people would track it, even if it isn't all that impactful.
Bounty Maxing
is there a way to edit the size and position of the number in that addon btw? i've been looking for it. thanks for making it
for the rejuv counter
QELive is saying the ones on the right sim higher if I put the same gem in. Am I just getting messed with?
It’s important to get feedback on the effect of how you pressed your buttons I think. Same way you read a breakdown and it influences your decision making and what buttons you press between fights, you can hit the fatty 12+ regrowth sotf ns rg heal 
Yes if you type /hot it's all there
did they change being able to stack up reforestation before pull? Not sure if im bugged but i cant seem to get stacks before pull anymore
yep its not possible anymore, they changed that a few days ago
You can do it with critters in like vorasius's room because it's not even a boss combat check.
Taunt a critter press swiftmend the devs can't stop me
yeah you're gettin messed with.
insert 'they're the same picture' meme
I dont believe anything without a report nowadays
oh ok thanks!
i miss targeted spells on frames so much
@polar thicket hey man
leave me alone
guys qq - my guardian druid friend falls over on the first 4 guys in maisara cavern +12 - hes 269 ilvl, as a resto druid, i ironbark, lifebloom and soothe one of them - is there anything else i should be doing?
obviously rejuv, regrowth, etc. during the pull
get a better tank?
Can i have your icons
Its useful when its chaotic and youre gonna tranq
Aka egg
I have to look at frames and at floor

jokes aside, is there anything else i should be potentially doing?
ok cool
i heard @molten gull has nicer ones
Nah this is mostly for cds
And when i have to move a lot
And tranq
Mostly last bosses i guess
Having couple rgs out makes a lot of a difference
If I ask for when the regrowth tracker gets to 12 it just reads “Niko” and plays pedrolust?
How do you not have couple of rgs running constantly though
sure
Between color swap and waiting for gate for egg all my regrowths fallnoff and im ramping rejuvs
Then i want regtowths out too before my tranq
And i gotta watch the floor
Its a mess
All the bear guides rn give terrible builds for tankiness, get that man on some bristling fur scintillating moonlight type shit
Sometimes i flourish 8 rgs sometimes i flourish 2 and that makes for 100k hps difference between pulls
My bounty healing is pretty insane .
Yeah I noticed that too with regrowths
I think I started valuing regrowth ramps more
I have Myth track Heart of Wind, Hero track Alnseer and Hero track Litany of Lightblind Wrath. Which combo is better?
I'd rather go into tranq with 10 rejuvs and few regrowths than 15 rejuvs and no regrowths
throw em in qelive and itll tell ya
Thats what im doing
And look at this
Holy nb
Convoke or tree?
Voke
I kinda struggle with this cuz alleria has way too much movement
Constant bait, back, forward, bait, back, forward
Yeah it sucks when u move
Playing this way is worse than wwr
are we catweaving this season or playing with moonkin? i haven't played since dragonflight, for m+
Literally 0 mobility
Yeah the mobility issues are insane
is it worth it to just play incarn on alleria? ive only had time to pull it like 5 times and die in p1? or is convoke still good for the shields and p3 breaks?
just for the mobility mostly?
I tried it on dragons farm and really liked it
for those that have done mythic paladins, did you run convoke or tree? just curious. looking over some, it seemed like a ton were still using voke, just wondering if anyone felt one was better specifically for paladins.
I ran convoke, it lines up really well with senn's ticking damage
you can convoke every searing radiance
but if you're just getting more casts in with tree then run tree
nexus 2nd boss (right boss): This happened, how to dodge that shit? Is that on tank or on us?
Convoke is too much mana
Are you playing MS or what
looks like you stepped into the yellow beam early
It can just give 5 rejuvs for free
What do I take here ? 🙂
It never gives 5 rejuvs, that's one in twenty convokes maybe
@thorn plover should wait a while?
2 from natty, 3 from a random lucky sotf rejuv
Im not even sure I get 5 rejuvs while ranging bosses with convoke
you cant step into it until its like glowing
not as soon as the add comes down
It will cast 1-3 sm in average and its 1/2 chance it will spend it on rejuv
@grand herald I just input my simc into QE, select Healing Focused and press Go? I'm mainly thinking about best combo for M+, not for Raid. Does it take this into account? Any way to know for M+?
Check you abundance when yoy convoke
also you still get plenty of mana discount with incarn, just they arent cast for you
theres a button at the top dungeon or raid
Im not sure if tree is more mana than convoke honestly
@thorn plover oooh, thanks, I didn't see that one
Just for the rejuvs casted by it wvery min
catweave
So if convoke is 2 sm average, 2 rejuv average and 2 rejuv average
Wouldnt that average 1 sotf rejuv every convoke?
Apex looks kinda shit here btw
Like what, 10-11%?
10
Might be a drop angle
Ill try going no apex
But i think i need to stop casting that many wgs
The mana is too much
Spec MS
Are you guys talking about raid builds?
it still spawns a tree even as WS, just not a good one
im genuinely not even sure what the difference between our hero trees is, they feel like they just do slightly different amounts of borderline invisible healing
Spec 2 ug instead of a treant
if haste is already your main stat, what do you pick for m+ here

left ez
The difference is
Convoke is unplayable on some fighrs without control
Thats the worst part of all
oh god then you still need trees for the incarn refund dont you? lmao
Convoke on bird is unplayable without control unless you just hold it 300 seconds
Litany sims better than Gaze by 298 HPS (0.21%). Seeing as there's no way that I'll be able to get perfect play like a sim with Litany, would I just be better off going with Gaze?
I mean ws vs keeper now is a meaningless difference
Both are completely passive
I like that sometimes while on a regrowth spam target i just hit a 80k regrowth because it had 1-2 blooms
Instead of a 50k one
thats actaully pretty poggers
If you spend the NS on yourself rg as ws does 150k
And that hits for 25k on everyone

Yeah that's pretty powerful
Instead of 10
honestly paladins and alleria have me really loving my ability to throw up a 40% healing amp on myself
im down for that
thats simming dungeon... so the damage value is whats putting it ahead.
theres probably some poor guild out there asking a a dps druid to talent into forestwalk on those 2 fights
@fervent mica yeah, I'm trying to figure out which trinket would be better for m+ mainly
how often are you plaing WS in raid?
if you play ws theres pretty cool minmax you can do
(I'm a noob at resto, first time maining it this season)
Ill give it a shot next bird night
show cd timings without control
cool
Yeah thats fucked

Im convoking all of the color swaps
Thats impossible without control
litany is a pain to use now... gaze is more healing overall.
Is Embrace still holding up? It feels strong, but not sure
You dont think new apex just makes ws the go to?
Implant for the mastery stack, 20%+ on vigorous creepers on you plus passive 24% healing amp everytime you vi yourself and proc the apex
Plus whatever rootnetwork does
Plus if we play phosy its another hot to proc it
Pretty damn sure ws is the play
with all the changes they've been making to our apex rework it could be 99% weaker by release
so who knows
i expect the notes a week from now...
then it should be locked in
Non crit
better, for sure
It def doesnt make it shit
but... maybe not good
Break down the math to understand
25k * 60% * 8 people * 3 blooms
new ones today?
50% and 6 people now
ah
so 225,000 ish
when did that change, last 10 hours?
Where’d they post that?
people on ptr
none of this is posted, were seeing it on ptr
Atp just make it proc off convoke to have a realish cd
linked earlier.
ya 225k per sm
its all still changing
225k is still a lot
yeah
For a gcd you need to use anyway
the splash wouldn't be effected by mastery, right?
like having hots on the people it heals won't double dip?
it probably won't be by the time they stop fiddling
it'll be weaker in M+ and about the same in raid imo
i'm expecting them to lower the splash value and increase the targets
they've already severely cut down the target twice since their proposed change, why do you think they'd reverse that?
its the only way they can really make it better in raid without buffing m+ to the moon /-:
Yeah or just rework it to lux soil apex
wait how big did you say your blooms were
Still useful in both content
Definitely is. I think the main difference is it makes the 4th point fully locked in, but it's definitely better numerically rn.
@fervent mica Sorry for the late response: how is it a pain to use, specifically? Just want to understand
how are you getting 25k blooms
fully stacked mastery bombs
