New song is bangers
shit I gotta catch up
Is manon coming back
hmm I didn't get any
other guildies hadn't yet either
but it seems to be trickling in
like they're going server by server
they were auto looted when i swapped character
i coined nexus on wednesday, and coined it again today and got the same cloak :))))
yeah, thats why they were refunding the ones used before they sent the fix. it wasn't checking off items on the list
my litany trinket isnt procing unless i spam wrath
wait i didnt get any extra
any alterations to talents for m+ been discovered?
i got a mail from blizzard saying i had things lost in the nether, but there was nothing in it
ill log back in and have a looksie
They shoulda taken back the rolled items fr
lmao
i put one of mine on...
is the nexus ring pair good for us?
idk i just want the haste mastery one
the crit ring isn't
we killed it.. but i died 🙁
one day
i did lots of regrowths though and i was 137k
the other healer was 138k .. i think they know our secrets
How we did not get nerf with this current hot fix. Prise the Blizzard lord
i know right!
ah its still blue! even though i died https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/f2V74QP6ChnrXRdY?fight=7&type=healing
not my night for keys
awe
hmmm, I had 2 void cores from bad vaults and two normal weekly ones. this message says it won't bring above the cap... I used 2 of my cores in dungeons and was saving the last two for M Chim..... I wonder if i'll go badck to 4/2
if you didn't get any when you got the mail... probably not
Anyone have a good guide on owl weaving? I want to try it out
my alts still haven't gotten them either. even though same server... soon™
huh, so we still catweave and owlweave? Or am i reading that post wrong
its worse than just pressing starfire
For what?
W gaslight
😂
if we're even a litle bit strong people seem confused we don't get nuked
you better hope we get a nerf
iodeally in like 2 weeks after we kill lura
or we won't be rebuffed in time for next season
i told the other druid the secret and they went from 80k heals to 107k heals!
which tech
just lifebloom?
the secret of spamming the regrowth while you put lifebloom on yourself, swiftmend yourself on cd and use the swiftmend proc to do the revju
thats the secret
push buttons hard after chugging red bull and listening to edm
the swiftmend on cd and regrowth regrowth
😹
its like a lightblub moment
im not using my litany trinket though it takes away from my regrowth potential
Dont wear that
i dont have many options..
Is it hero litany?
yeah
Just buy a pvp insignia for 750 conquest
i got volatile void suffuser which will give me more haste.. or i have whisper of duskwraith
i have a feather.. but its only 263
seat 19 is gonna be the death of me
Void suffuser is better than litany
okay im gonna upgrade it and put it on and try
At last boss in magisters, is it better to keep lb on a squishy dps or the tank
Move it as needed.
This was me ngl, except I figured it out from here 😂
It’s a pretty long fight so it behooves you to put it on a DPS with dot for effective healing
Yeah been doing that, but i still struggled in a 19
well 19s are supposed to be hard
ahh they called the raid before i could try the other trinket
what level are you doing?
17s
i havnt tried anything harder than 13
i wanted to go to that website to see what i can survive, to what level
i could prob heal anything that wont 1 shot me
you can survive basically anything without anything til 17 or 18
couple shadow bolt kicks got missed in this 17 spire and it dropped the hunter to like 10%
Whats this website
Not Even Close is a tool for World of Warcraft that will determine if you will live or die to enemy abilities in Mythic+ dungeon keys, given your stats and defensives
yes that one!
i prob wont push anything higher than 15 bc you get the mount at 15
You can survive anything with bear form and frenzied regen
yeah but how do i know when to go into bear form!
you should be practicing that in 13s lol
You have to know which mechanics need bear forming or defensives
3400 is 16s isn’t that the mount?
right before something bad hits you
yes
i think it was 10 years ago i pushed high keys i played with this mage that would basically tell me how to play my character and would tell me when to go into bear and when to interrupt he basically raid lead the m+
it was awesome
it was a lot easier when we had trash timers too
You just gotta do each dungeon like 10 times and you should have everything memorized.
he ws like an add on before addons called all that stuff out
Thats awesome but you have to learn how do to it yourself, and once you learn every dungeon’s dmg pattern, you’ll find it easier to heal and use defensives. Bear form and frenzied means more globals on other ppl
Sometimes you just need the extra hp
yeah im getting better when learning where the puddles happen
Learn the names and icons of trash and boss abillities, so that u can prepare in advance
Is there something that people use to track lifebloom to ensure the hot doesn't drop off/ lose stacks?
LifebloomAlert
Ty
did this and timed my first key of the night
Try to use bearform for big dmg stuff even if you’d survive without it, to get the hang of it. Throw a trash as well 😄
Some pad dmg
haha you think im pro look at u!
im like good enough to do mythic bosses but not good enough to get in a good guild
and i learn a little slower, takes me more attempts to understand. but once i understand im good
i came back to the game at the start of dragonflight... mythic didn't exist when i had raided before that. joined a guild that was planning to start mythic raiding that tier.
Was very bad. played a lot, got better. still mostly bad.
knowing you need to work is the best thing to get better
now ce is an expectation instead of a goal
Join heroic pugs to practice raid healing
I’ve been playing since cata but only started mythic raiding in dragonflight. Until then it was mounts, reputations, flowers and finding wc3 characters
Nexus kings and chimaerus and just focus on your healing not so much on mechanics
Youll learn a lot
I think i have like 50 hero kills on both bosses this season
hello friends
Beloren is for radiant plume and then most his loot as after that is bad.
And plume is kind of sim bait for some specs anyways if they have to hold a CD for adds or something, but I think most bosses still line up well.
The ring might be a good boomy flex piece since you probably have no crit on resto set and boomy still wants some.
ah my pally got a plume out of a box!
Meowdy
saame
we are the lucky ones!
guys, is there a nice addon to customize sound effects whenever your CDs are up? for instance, a waterdrop sound when swiftmend is up, things like that
There's a few sfx in the base game but I think PulseCD can do that?
I'll check that out thx
if you go to advanced cooldown manager you can add new ones for your abilities
its in the blizard ui
if I have gaze and locus already (hc) where should i roll my bonus?
huh so you never actually go into moonkin form for owl weaving m+
depends on the rest of your gear... but a lot of people have chosen nexus point
why nexus ?
And Nexus have boots to
a friend is mentioned trying to save bonus rolls for myth gaze is it worth the 2 roll ?
it also has boots/cloak
Yes
you can only roll once per kill, so saving multiple sets doesn't do much
You Can always sim in upgrade finder to
what was the sim website again please?
questionablyepic
yeah moonkin form v minor dmg increase. 4% haste is v strong
cheers thanks
For the Lithany trinket, does ticks of moonfire/sunfire count? And do the cast have to be to the same target?
Okay, but for instance can I apply moonfire to different targets? Does that count?
No
So only to the same target?
Is people still catweaving in m+ ? Can see alot of talents where rip and rake is still active
is druid asks about mounts
that too
Where bro
give me a cool flight form for achievments
I tjecked murlock Io
thats old shit
Hmm im tjecking raider io on top 100 druid slot still spec into Rip and rake

that doesnt mean theyre keys done since 12.0.5
raider.io also just shows last talents they logged out with
Good point
useless data
Is there a better site to track?
Cat weaving is still better right? Don’t you lose a fair bit of healing as well with moonkin spec?
logs
aggregate sites are notoriously bad
no
No
Catweaving vs boomboxing is different than Wildstalker vs KOTG
wildstalker isn't a cat spec
You can sacrifice healing to buff your damage more but that's not unique to either damage build
Is shoulder or chest our off piece for set? I assume chest, right?
Chest
ty
chest and gloves 😏
What’s the new rotation with moonkin build? Damage felt lower when I tried moonkin vs cat weaving
So don’t even bother with the dots?
only if you need to move
Thx friend ❤️
woo drugs?
What advice was that?
Does seem like good advice haha
redbull and edm\
Bruh it didnt even give me anythign back
How many did you use?
2
Currencies are just auto added, they dont show up on mail as an item mate
yeah check your currency tab
Tough
rip
Relog maybe
when did you use them?
ez

doing +11 delves at 156 ilvl is a choice I'm doing but its working I guess
lmao
Did anyone have 3 or more Voidcores and get them refunded?
yeah my alt did
ok so you'll get refunded over the 2/2 max
seems so
Thanks Purr
i was stressed about haveing to run two dungeons real quick to use two more cores
I got 1 refunded that I spent before the bug fix
your alt got them already? both of mine that used still waiting. lol
So if we spendt 1 before bug fix We Got refound ?
youll get 1 back
Also if you Only spended 1 bonus Roll ?
Is NB really better that HB? just did an 11 seat and NB was 1.6% of my healing no idea if thats good or bad
i dont take either
hb is really bad... nb is really bad when you don't have to heal much
this is for m+ btw
yes
i find HB to be cluth when i need to swap LB
i havent been swapping it at all since the patch
not nearly as much value in swapping it now
Is there a written guide to this new KoTG boomkin resto build?
Yeah i just spam regrowth instead of swapping now lol. Better to just keep it rolling at 3 stacks instead of swapping and force bloom with SM
Easier to just regrowth em up when they're blanketed with a WG and rejuv from sotf anyway
the kotg build is less healing, more damage
play is the same
i tried the kotg build was not a fan
twin sprouts vs implant? for M+
implant 4lif
hello guys, can anyone explain why the best build changed to wild stalker in raids?
i cant find any info about it
simply because it synergizes with the new apex better
yes sir, im going to try my first heroic with the wow head build - thank you so much for the reply!
keep lifebloom up on yourself, 2 rejuvs, swiftmend yourself = profit
- your normal stuff
gotcha
whats the wild growth swiftmend combo again
swiftmend + rejuv + wildgrowth?
I think it's funny watching a bunch of treants spawn during convoke
theres no combo anymore
ive been living a lie
so just wg on cd as much as possible
but wont swiftmend extend the wg hot on everyone a bit?
only the target you swiftmend
and only if you're spec'd into verdent infusion
and the huge lifebloom double rejuv stack on yourself
do you do that in m+ too or just raid
not usually on yourself
in m+ it can either be tank or yourself, ive been starting to lean a lot more to myself
apex just does so much work
i was watching jb do 20s/21s earlier and he had it on himself most of the run too, but hes playing a completely different game than i am lol
How many targets do we Starfire on? 2+?
if i am playing with brew i have it on myself
anyone have a talent export for the new boomkinweave build? I've seen some people using each hero talent, which is better?
on self is the play yeah
forestwalk, bond with nature, verdant heart
Can someone give me a TLDR for high keys? Keep one rejuv on everyone, use Swiftmend on regrowth if everyone just took a ton of dmg, otherwise rejuv? pop wild growth on cd or AOE dmg?
bond with nature better then Harnonious constitution?
keeping rejuvs on people isnt really a goal
its really just, know incoming damage, hot up as much as you need pre damage event, use spot healing during damage event
the only maintainence you really have is LB and you can SM RJ when no dmg is incoming
tyty
harmonius
yeh i think its better even if you LB yourself
i like to swiftmend rejuv for big hits (if i have time ill regrowth) and then spam heal the other person ignoring the person wtih lifebloom bc the blooms should proc and heal them
yeah for keys lb on whoever is squishy
does anyone have a way to track the cooldown for call of the elderdruid, not the buff
it sucks when your tank is squishy bc i like it when i can put lb on the range dps bc they NEVER stand in my circle
and you also said "high keys" so honestly i dont do anything higher than a 13 right now so take what i say with some ignorance
hello, i am lazy, where am i bonusrolling? spire? 🙂
chimaerus
mythic chimaerus ideally
its puggable content
your trinkets are not good
aint u missing a craft? or am i blind
yes I think so
craft boots and roll chim
I dont think boots, ring craft is better
boots/wrist/cloak craft is stinky
jewellery is good
why
DM me for rotation secrets is crazy lmao
Bro just allergic to people questioning what he says
“Rotation secrets”
Maybe he meant “rotisserie secrets”
Dm him then post the response
he’s gonna block me, im already on thin ice
Oh..
Anyone else notice that even if you click off lifebloom or let it expire, you can still continue to proc everbloom with sotf
Yeah
odd. Not sure if there’s any real way to take advantage of that since you also really want photo blooms but maybe someone smarter than I
I noticed this and subconsciously gaslit myself into thinking it made it
Hello good people who's running a build like this one after 12.0.5? I'm watching the last Dorki vid, seems interesting
got duplicate nice. This is why i got 2 extra rolls
its kinda troll
are we sending LB on ourselves in raid now? perma?
Hey guys, is there any healing in going boomkin and using heart of the wild in any way or is it just for damage?
pretty much
the DoC build is kinda troll
DoC?
dream of cenarius
Ah I see. I saw like high rank m+ players playing with boomkin but no DoC. Is that just for damage then on big packs?
yes
Cool, makes sense. Do you risk pulling nearby packs or will it starfire only on aggroed packs?
if they are close enough to get hit, then they are gonna be aggrod by distance anyways
aight, thanks
is there anything to speciallyto do or is it just have it urself so it proccs in raid rather on tanks?
you have increased self healing
50% of the damage done by starfire into healing seems kinda big tho ngl
but yeah i dont really see which two points to take away to spec into that
so rdruid does insane damage now? i though these buffs were to make them a bit better bc they were doing zdps (even for healer numbers)
i mean you are doing shit dps to prio/st
Yes
finally blizzard realized it's really off putting to play melee feral as a healer
no clue how this ever became the standard
because its fun and interesting?
I mean at least make the other option more viable (which they did now). I always played restokin ofc and not furry. did not matter for keys on +10 anyway
Wildstalker is the only druid fully using fluid form and it's great
Rake, thrash, heal
Just swapping forms non stop
I'm playing wildstalker with casting talents
Its taking me a while to get used to new keybinds with caster dps instead of cat ngl
same
are we keeper of grove now for m+ with new caster talents?
The consensus seems to be, wildstalker does more healing and thats more important so stick with that. But if you feel you are doing enough healing to keep groups alive then you can go kotg for more dps (its just healer dps tends not to be that important)
even with dorkis new build?

Don't forget to like and subscribe so that you're notified of my new videos! Read more below:
MDT Routes: https://wago.io/p/DorkiRoute
I will continue to provide tank and general content as long as people remain in...
Dunno aboit that
Does it exploit the starfire cleave bug?
If so I imagine that will get fixed at some point but could be worth for a bit
New build
Actually so funny
FYI I will be taking annual leave from this channel in response to this video's release
He literally says not to run it in pugs

its not pug friendly?

Watch the video instead of asking us.
but you guys are the experts
sry ppl are mean its usually nice ppl here
It doesn’t respond well to unexpected damage which you tend to have more of in pugs where kicks are missed / people stand in shit / doesn’t hit their defensives / etc
Seems like you need to play it perfectly as well, just seems too much stress to do some more damage
It'll also just suck on actually hard bosses
This build does not deal with non trash healing checks well
is there a build then that's does caster dps but keeps our healing and is it alot less than cat - as being feral really puts me off
Caster dps is best atm, no need to cat weave
Except for using hotw cat form on priority targets
i did look there but couldnt see any talents builds though i could be blind
Wowhead m+ build is up to date and written by the same author
ahh thank you
sorry i'm new
and im trying to learn and did try it before found it hard to focus on cat and healing
so gave up for a bit
Yes I think so
starsurge is pretty decent damage
I dropped boomie and sun fire for rake and rip
So I can rip after hotw
Not a terrible shout
And with WS you randomly come up on 5 combo points sometimes too from dispeling

Its definitely hard for me to transition to caster after so long doing catweaving
But I guess will feel natural in a few days
Did we get new coins? blizzard refounded all my coins
Yes
If you use your coins before they fixed them, you get the refund. At least as far as I understood it.
i used 1 in dungeon and 2 in raid
its safe to use them right? i get 2 new next week to?
This last point from the QE guide on 12.0.5:
"Are there any major playstyle changes? Lifebloom uptime becomes extremely crucial. Make sure your Lifebloom target also has two Rejuvenation buffs and a Regrowth and Swiftmend them off cooldown. Check your Lifebloom uptime with WowAnalyzer after every pull until you are sitting at 95%+ uptime."
Is it better to spend GCDs keeping these things up in periods of lower damage than spending GCDs on starfire etc?
You should get 2 new ones next week
yeah maybe actually
but then I need to play fluid form instead
drop lycara 2nd node I guess?
I like this build
I have 2/2 TV instead of NB but will swap later and have a play
NB is better imo
I'm just fully catweaving tbh fuck this shit
It’s the cleave healing range in pugs that bothers me
Cba starfiring full time, I'm taking the talent just in case there's some meme pull but
Tried JDs build with Dream of Cenarius and its insane fun on 18s pulling 200k+ dps in AOE pulls
does this look?
Is ST still better for cat
cuz then I think i'll just go back cat
I believe I read on QE or wowhead guide that they are about equal, cat maybe slightly behind
Its only really on aoe where cat falls behind
hey ppl! looking at the changes, in raid is it still the same build or is there any other popular build to go?
apex with wildstalker
The gameplay remained the same
so this is the new raid build to go for?
I heard there are some changes to keeper and m+ content. Does anyone have experiences with that in keys + 10-15?
yes
So you don't go caster in raid only M+?
you don't dps in raid
ty for the help!!:)
With high damage uptime no, but realistically on bosses with stuff to heal, yeah it should be a bit better
gotcha
I'm untalenting starfire too tbh fuck this padding
How the mighty have fallen
I'll pad with thrash idk
It's really crazy how much stronger Call is for caster damage
Than for catweaving
Ig lining up with HOTW gives it a good boost on the cat side
But otherwise the combo points are really piss
i am new to m+.. should i always lifebloom on myself?
you lifebloom the person about to take heavy damage or tanks
if you recall it was stronger for cat a few patches ago iirc
No I dont think so
how do i know which target is about to take heavy damage
I mean it's always been the same situation it's just that now with Starfire being gigantic it's more in your face
that's just dungeon knowledge and seeing what mob casts its heavy dot on who
But old HOTW / Call effect is a ~72% DPS gain for Starfire spam
It's like 30% DPS gain catweaving before factoring in Feral Frenzy
Speaking of this
On lower keys you can probbaly just keep lifebloom on tank most of the time but yea as you get more knowledge try swapping it at sensible times
Needing to read target names on spell cast bars
To figure out who to prehot on a cast
Is the worst thing I've ever done in this game
Yea its annoying
do you not have this addon
I have an addon it just puts the bars in a more convenient spot
Instead of nameplates
It's still shit
whats that addons name
First time healer who usually does DPS trying to figure out where I should spend my voidcores
what addon is this vrocas?
Maybe they're workign on the same feature for base UI
Usually I'd just sim but now I have no idea. Any pointers?
Danders has it, TargetedSpells is the addon I have
Targeted spells is one addon. That does it yeah
Is there a way to track when Call of the elder druid is ready to be used (1 min cd)?
Hey this might be a stupid question but does our Mastery work based on unique IDs or do multiple stacks of a HoT contribute?
Like I'm assuming:
Rejuvenation + Germination = 2 stacks
Lifebloom with Everbloom (stacked to 3) = 1 stack (without Harmonious Blooming)
Or does the triple stacked Lifebloom count towards our Mastery threefold? Even before Harmonious Blooming?
You're right
Everbloom stacks arent more mastery stacks
Same with symbiotic bloom multiple stacks
Okay thanks, yeah I figured that'd make more sense but wasn't sure
It puts a debuff on you that acts as the cooldown, not much of a convenient way to track it unless you use ArcUI, could make a custom bar for it
Mythic Chimaerus, Nexus Point Xenas, Skyreach are good shouts, it just depends on the gear you already have too
you can sim still too. qe live upgrade finder is droptimizer for healers.
Is there anything bis in skyreach?
staff/chest
the chest is basically the same as the one from npx
slightly less haste
Shoulder for catalyst fodder
There isnt any haste mastery boots right? So boots also for catalyst fodder
only the boe boots
Any way to track call of elder druid cooldown?
1st question to ask is: do you have crests to upgrade
then ye roll anywhere you get most upgrades
Just craft ingi boots with 120 haste.
I have 3 items from nexus point which are trash and i know im getting duplicates therer
so i have to dodge that
Is it worth switching champion Vibrant Winderloop for Heroic Occlusion of Void (loosing 167 mastery for 75 haste 98 CS 28 stamina) with those stats ?
You can also GB or FR them.
yeah idk what gb or fr means
how do u rolled 4 times ? I has jkust 2 rolls
Great Britain and France.
if ur rerolled before the fix they refund back ur 2 rolls
Hey guys! Is vaelgors final stare really so far down the trinket BIS list? I feel like it's so impactful
Yeah I think I will eventually, not a bad idea
It feels like a CD in itself haha
dont use this
refer to qelive top gear or at minimum the qelive trinket list
Ahhhh ok!
does anyone know if I can kill a boss I'm saved on, again, just to bonus roll 
Not on mythic, no
This is not a BiS list. It’s a list of what people are using. Basically a list of items that people have gotten already.
This does not show whether these players would like to play those trinkets or if this is the only (or highest ilvl) trinket they got.
Avoid that website if you want to optimise.
yay
Grats
is it safe to disnechant the bonus rolls
did you get 2 of those before they fixed it?
You can literally do anything for a 10
can you track the cooldown of Call of ELder Druid somehow?
turning off your monitor won't help you track it trust me
what did i miss xD
in m+ using caster talents do we use heart of wild on the boomy starfall or on the cat dot thing?
It's a debuff so I see it on my dander's frame
Kitty
even on trash
Can maybe make a weakaura and put it next to your cdm
I saw dorki had a giant icon next to his bars
wait im so out of loop theres weakauras again?
But I saw that it shows in dander's which was fine for me
There are a few clones you can download
I don't personally use them
i think it's m33kauras or something
Ngl dorkis build looks pretty op...
It's pretty fun
Im about to try it. Sick of mana issues in WS
I've only done 3 m+ so far though
mana issues 
Pugging is rough on mana lol
Then you get some great pugs.
i don't think there is a ceiling of hps where you could oom on this spec
not possible
and i guarantee your pugs arent pulling at a pace that requires you to do that and simultaneously failing all mechanics
other than by playing bad
When you need to pump 100k for 15 mins straight due to tank chain pulling? Yeah theres mana issues
this spec can do 100k while semi afk
Tried the dorku build, did 150k dps on first pull on seat on a 17. But healing bleeds etc was ass with the build so... think im staying wildstalker.
No one is pumping 100k for 15 mins straight
but also yeah that is just not real
Thats just coming up with excuses for poor gameplay
Yeah this is what im worried about
QUESTION: How to get the most healing from everbloom in raid? I have full uptime on my lifebloom, consume soul of the forest on every proc (usually with rejuv), and end up having 1/3 of other dudus healing from everbloom??
You re not pressing swiftmend enough then
Send a log
Think i will only play it if im doings 10-15s for the vault. Small pulls with dots or bleeds it felt ass.
timing matters, and is this heroic?
mythic
is your lb target stacked with hots?
share logs
Dont have logs i think, but will check - 2 sec
Stack ur lb target with all hots possible
Yeah I was exaggerating a bit, but it is hard when people stand in bad when theres no other damage and you dont have much for hots up besides on lb target
Whats the dps rotation in m+? The caster one, should I go into monkin form? Is it good to use starsurge on cd?
Dorkis build is going to make that 10x worse
self lifebloom with vi, but using swiftmend on everyone else?
Yeah, thats why im coming in here for opinions on it lol
What u mean?
I mean even jb and him both tell you to not use it unless in a coordinated group or a weekly key
In top keys does healer damage even matter?
Thats my thinking on jt lol. Like yeah with a coordinated group, pumping 40k would be nice. But everyone needs to be on their shit
you have lifebloom on yourself, spec'd into verdant infusion... but are using sm on anyone but yourself. you aren't extending your hots on the target that matters
And one wrong move without the right hots out is game over
Yeah ws seems more forgiving.
the other druid is the proper spec, and is swiftmending their lb target
if they were doing the rest of it right... they'd have other healing to go with the everbloom
I think the fun will wear off
The dorku build?
It's a fun change of pace for vault keys
It looks fun for weeky vault keys ngl
dreamgroove shenanigans, fun but felt shit in high key pugs.
Thanks! Will look into it
Lol indeed
Im just having trouble accepting the fact I cant do shit for damage anymore since tww 😭
You contribute 5-6% on bosses, thats around ~10 seconds on some bossfights
Id say I average about 5-15k. Healing 14s. Idk how that compares lol.
Awesome. Thanks
im jus happy to see the dotc gaslighters finally loose control over the narrative
kotg has been better for "low" keys the entire expansion
so tired of seeing every single rdruid pugger doing 1100 dps and running oom 24/7
I've literally never gone oom
I don't understand what people are saying, haha
Are they never using their cooldowns or something?
ran into a couple of people that refused to spec into apex for m+... they drank a lot
but it has nothing to do with how terrible doc is or isn't
No. I get into groups where multiple people are taking 1m+ avoidable damage..
Not sure if this works on mythic but i could bonus loot a heroic boss i already killed before
you can't get into an instance where a mythic boss you killed is alive
both of my sets of bonus rolls have given me one upgrade and one item i already had on myth. lol
Do you always use NS with Convoke ? Or better to have 2 separate heal CD ? Is the answer the same in M+ and Raid ?
Doesnt work a nymore
NS no longer buffs during Convoke
No that’s not true.
On 14-15 keys I already get 100k hps overall. Some pulls with >200k hps.
I never drop below 80% mana.
And I never drink.
Oh wow thx guys !
In ws? I might be stacking too much haste ngl then
This has nothing to do with haste. In keys like academy I have 45%.
Otherwise ~40 with flask.
Also Wildstalker has nothing to do with it either.
There is no mana difference between Wildstalker and kotg.
Interesting. Imma have to upload a log on here to see wassup ngl.
Ive been using wow analyzer and hitting around 90÷ efficiency
What do you mean?
When i play kotg I never go oom. Lol
I have no idea what these percentages should tell me.
how much mana you end a pack with
Those hero talents do the exact same thing for your mana - nothing.
You have the same playstyle, unless you change some other talents.
hey you have +5% more maxmana in kotg lmao
And that one second on swiftmend CD is not having a big enough impact on your abundance stack to actually make a difference for your mana.
That is completely irrelevant.
you play shapeshifter in this kotg build and liveliness in ws
It doesnt matter
There is no reason to play liveliness right now. Don’t do that.
what is the best for a beginner? "keeper of the grove" or "wildstalker" ?
Also then that’s a diff between MS vs liveliness, not of ws vs kotg
Same playstyle basically.
Then thats my problem with mana. Ive been playing liveliness
You should not have issues with liveliness though.
But as I said, there is no reason to play liveliness currently.
Thats just wrong
Then whats my problem?
More damage. 🤷♂️
You re oom because you re not playing properly
As long as our starfire bugs persist, MS is providing more damage than liveliness, even on Wildstalker.
You play ms for sure
Ms ?
Master shapeshifter
Is liveliness a net heal increase at all or do I not understand what "hots tick faster" means? I think I had that issue with feral. I switched last night to liveliness and kept going oom lol so I appreciate this discussion, I'ma switch back
That’s right.
nahhhh i was wrathing my lil heart out for that mana :<
what does people going oom have to do with
It’s a heal increase of around 2%. In raid if you pick embrace that would be double the value though.
Any MS provides mana and dmg.
Faulty gameplay.
Usually pressing way too many rejuvs.
Yeah it's true I was rejuv too much lol
How do you guys play longer bosses in mythic without the regen from MS? or is the mana management fine?
Some wraths and you Are good to go!😉
If you mean mythic raids: MS provides you round about 10% extra mana. So if you fight 5min (300s) you gain an extra 30s until you oom.
Round about that.
Unless you have 10min fights mana shouldnt be a concern.
Don’t do that in raid.
This costs an extreme amount of hps and gives barely no mana.
MS gives most of its mana through convokes and otherwise by pressing hotw (feral frenzy) and a cat finisher
why is winkstalker now the main pick ?
i see it on logs and other rdruids using it. is it new for this week?
I think the biggest Problem is when ppl miss the 8-12 stacks abundance Thats a huge manasaver when you cast your regrowth
do i change my rotation at all for windstalker
@lyric otter yes they buffed the owl casts (all of them) go visit wowhead its Fine for anythjng around +1 - +15‘s
what about raid? i mostly do raid, always did windstalker for m+
but i noticed in raid windstalker is now the pick
They changed the apex talent so for now looks Like wildstalker ist better for raids
i should learn the talents more tbh, i hate to be a bother but can you tell me why? i thought windstalker was for m+ cuz we got time to go cat
how is it better for raid if we cant go cat
You dont have to be in catform if you play wildstalker
For raid it is better cause they changed the apex talent
is keeping abundance up on everyone still good for m+? or no need?
whats the apex change
Everbloom heals 40y for 50% of the Last Bloom…THIS IS HUGE
Would someone have a link to a good Call of The Elder druid M+ build?
No
Thats how you end up oom
You ll have enough abudance just by spreading rejuvs through sotf
Yes
Its not something you hard track in keys
Thanks - just been looking through things since I normally do pres evoker and my alt is druid and want to start doing keys on her
whats the rotation change for windstalker for raid?
i copied top builds but idk what the change is lol
Everbloom : what is this "last bloom" ? When you override LB in pandemic window ?
There is no change
The gameplay is exactly the same
No change right
so i can do more hps as windstalker without ever going catform?
Yes
yes
You play wildstalker because it does the most healing
Swiftmend has to be!!!!!!! casted dont miss it
If you actively go for 12 stacks, you will lose mana. The rejuvs you have to spend for it will be more expensive than the regrowth you could have casted instead.
Idk
i see. hmm
Nothing
Yeah thats definitely why I was going oom. Just ran one with working on having 4-6 rejuvs out, worked way better
It just increases your healing
do i just keep lifebloom on myself
Is switching lifebloom target worth losing stacks for the added healing boost in high keys?
This is raid advice
This doesnt account for your m+ problems
Well it just worked in my last dungeon lol
What Kaelon said was raid advice
That was just raidtalk btw. But If you play VI in M+ and use it for rejuvs a lot of times, you will have enough abundance stacks anyways.
You cant have 12 abundancei n a key
Ik its 10 max.
If you're tracking targeted spells, then 100%
Like if someone is about to eat a channel
I'll swap it to them before it goes out
Sounds good
Right
If you‘d play prosperity in M+ it gets a bit more complex because you will here and there use sotf for regrowths and will cast some extra rejuvs. Getting oom with prosperity in M+ can happen really fast if you‘re not very experienced on resto.
can anyone give me some advice regarding resto druid mana in raid?? im always oom halfway through the fight and way before any other healer?
Link a log and i ll tell you why
what part of windstalker is better hps? anything I can try to proc on purpose for more hps?
You are not casting regrowth and swiftmend enough, so your mana saving through abundance is very low
If you re constantly going out of mana, its because you only rejuv people
Your overall cpm is also very bad
And you need to press more buttons
ohhh okay thank you yes i only spam rejuv thought it was best
You should have like 4 times the amount of Regrowth casts. And 50% more swiftmend.
we have a random buff that also makes regrowth free sometimes is part of this
ive only ever tanked standing still to cast feels so off
and just cheaper thru abundance in general
abudance caps at 12 right?
Yes
yes
okay get to 12 & focus more on swiftmend + regrowth?
Aim for a 1:1 rejuv to regrowth ratio and more swiftmending
if youre using arcUI you can track abundance stacks as a cute bar that turns bright red if youre not doing a good job with rejuv
Also pressing your buttons a lot more
will do
Overall cpm is recommended to be at least >50 and you re at 42
ill get this too
didnt know about that how to activate this?
it's very custom
ahhh okay my 40 regrowths to 210 rejuvs not the best then
Make sure you play Verdant Infusion and use swiftmend on the player with Lifebloom and 2 rejuvs (mostly on yourself!).
Most of the time you should use rejuvs with sotf.
i put conditional and tickmarks on it
Yeah its very bad
sorry what does sotf mean ?
soul of the forest buff
Soul of the forest. The proc you get for casting swiftmend.
ahaa okay
There is a big mistake in your lb casts
so that means lifebloom on myslef in raids?
was just gonna ask this too
13/15 times you are not refreshing 3 stacks
Its also only at 55% uptime
That kills a lot of your apex healing
Mostly. You can switch it to someone with an absorb. But that should make sense in your group comp. If you have 2 holy pallys for example, I wouldn’t switch.
A macro helped me …
Swiftmend+rejuv+wildgrowth
(For the Soul of the Forest)
ohh i totally forgot about this
Wild growth is independent from swiftmend.
Y
With wild growth you also control your mana.
Your everbloom is healing 12% while with proper play that should be over 20%
But it is effecient for mana
this is kind of a bad habit macro
thank you i wouldve never realized that
Yeah its a bad macro
Youre welcome. Feel free to ask if you need anything. We‘re here to help.
Very suspect of how many people that wg is hitting
i just track sotf and i put it under my hotbar and the text says SOUL so i get dopamine for using it up
i dont need to but i do it anyway
Morning all, I am running the kotg caster build for M+ and having better results (personally) than the ws caster build. but i was looking for a way to track the Call of the Elder Druid's 1min cd before it can be triggered again. i am finding myself triggering it while finishing off a pack and losing almost half the up time for it where i could be saving this for the next pack
I have added the buff to the CDM and i can see when i have it active but unable to see how long the CD has left before i can proc the buff again
❤️ honestlyt so simple!
So I've been using that to know when to press it
how can I track the "3" stacks proper?
why swiftmend on lifebloom? with the new apex talent I think it's better to swiftmend a random rejuv player and let lifebloom drop so I can pandemic it
if I swiftmend lifebloom the bloom never comes since it's always refreshed
and I want to profit from everbloom a lot
does anyone know if the 3rd boss in WR still damages adds with his bladestorm?
soo in raid max 12 abundance and in m+6-10?
Anyone got the link for the kotg caster build? Hoping to try it out
Refreshing lifebloom in pandemic would lead to ~10% more bloom procs. But that needs an extra GCD. If you use swiftmend with VI on that target, it will receive +8s duration. So a fully buffed target gets +24s of duration combined for rejuvs and lifebloom.
Also you apply a Wildstalker symbiotic bloom to that target (with the implant talent).
It therefore receives another mastery stack and +20% healing.
And you usually do that on yourself because you receive +24-44% extra healing by other talents as well.
And don’t let Lifebloom drop ever. Have 100% uptime in raid.
does swiftmending LB after bloom allow it to bloom again when it reaches that window
After reviewing my Log, how to make this 7 awful casts good?
I've been using Nem's for the audio cues to remind me of the pandemic windows
Don’t switch lifebloom around and don’t refresh it too early with the lifebloom cast itself. The pandemic range is 4.5s.
How can it only be 10% more everbloom procs? I pandemic every 10 seconds, Vi fucks it up so hard. Also you are telling me things I know below, but not explaining why it's better
can you tell me hwo to set this up?
Everbloom healing comes from Photosynthesis and Apex 4, not refreshes
But that metric is not very relevant. Situational a red one could even be good. For example on heavy dots where you swap LB or for big absorbs in raid.
oh thanks that means i manually switched LB to other targets?
He did explain
just need to download the addon, most of it is predone since the guy who made it plays RDruid, you can then customize the audio cues and timing for the pandemic windows in the options
Lifebloom lasts 15s. So by refreshing it you can pandemic refresh it once every 15s on average.
In the meantime you also use more than one swiftmend that gives 3 blooms each time and you have a lot of photosynthesis procs.
If you aim for 10 Abundance in a key, you’re gonna be OoM constantly.
so 4-6 abundance its ok?
Most likely, yes. Or you let it drop.
4-6 abundance is usually all you will need, yes.
cant find Nem´s in Wago?
At 4 stacks, Regrowth becomes cheaper than Rejuv.
Apex talent says Everbloom is on LB's "final bloom", what is that "final bloom" ?
Basically whenever it blooms
curseforge
But you have a bunch of talents that make it bloom early
refreshing in pandemic, photo, sotf use
this one
Use lifebloomalert
Oh what a poor wording. Gotcha thx !
yea!
you can customize to remind you when Swift is off CD as well, really helpful
ok thanks, and by using sm on lb does it prolong the pandemic? dont understand else
is it just me or the kotg m+ build feels amazing in terms of dps but lackluster in terms of healing output?
Extends lb, but pandemic stays 4.5s
top answer as always thanks!
Anyone know of any additional bonus rolls blizzard have given out I just did a random 10 and got another 2 bonus rolls
it's great if you're in a coordinated group pulling big
I’ve already used mine for the week
If you're in a pug pulling 4 mobs it's pretty bad
Just realized that too
There’s a reason that no one here is recommending it for your average player.
they gave back the rolls u used before the "fix"
I’ll take that 😂
Is it just better in terms of damage then? And just to be used if you're sure you're not gonna have issues healing ever?
do you guys have any addon/way to remind when to recast lifebloom? I forget always
I'ts great for damage, but also good for healing if your starfire is hitting like 10 things
Lifebloom glow
Lifebloomalert
thank you 🙏
any1 know how i can set up stagger in danders frames?
use grid2 😛
had the same issue and couldnt find a fix showing just stagger
if you cast starfire in base form with fluid form do you get the bonuses from moonkin casting?
Anyone able to look over my logs tell me what I can do better?
if so, id appreciate it... https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/f1X7W9FaRDpyzdYV?fight=last&type=healing&source=156
You're still saving the global
You're just losing a little damage on your first starfire
I like how i got shit on for my kotg balance spec post before patch and it turns out that's the actual wowhead build now lol
its literally not but go off king
sounds good
Its a meme build for your weekly keys
I don't take it since I like standing in my efflo anyways
Everyone expected our two major bugs around starfire to get fixed.
If they buff a spell that is bugged twice and already does doubled damage of what it should do, it’s getting a bit out of control.
For padding starfire was better before 12.0.5 anyways.
They should have buffed cat spells.
its very close in hps
I think you need to be critical of what keys you're doing. If it's sub like12-13 (where you can play whatever) or you're coordinated in comms pushing 19+ there are certainly (dungeon dependent) applications for doc. If you are doing 15-19 keys and pugging, on average, you will fail more keys than playing ws which is a safer pick
Depends on how extreme you play it. With some builds and playstyles you definitely hurt your healing a lot.
Sometimes even in a 12 people almost die. But you do 60k dps. 🤷♂️
if you almost die in a 12
you are almost dying cause u didnt press a single heal button
Druid can heal 12s w rejuv 2/2 tv and apex
That’s the thing about this build. You almost don’t press healing buttons. You press regrowths to optimise your starfire damage.
Barely even rg
Depends on what you talent.
you are taking 1 extra talent that carries rotting dmg in aoe
And how you play.
People playing doc have 230 starfires in a dungeon can't really act like they aren't totally changing how they play tho 😂
You’re casting Rejuv way too much, you need to play around Abundance more. You had a couple deaths to avoidable mechanics. You’re not using WG or Swiftmend enough.
Your class tree is kind of a mess (sunfire but taking cat talents? very few defensive talents and no incap roar). You’re not using Ursine Vigor which is fine in a 13 but why take the talent just to not use it.
does anyone have a way to track call of the elder druid, i like the build but dislike that i cant tell when i can proc it again
watch ur debuff
when its gone u can
wait am i blind i didnt see debuff let me check again
535 Rejuvs in a +13 is insanity
they should introduce a catchup mechanic for dawncrests, I dinged 90 on my 3rd alt and now I somehow have to farm 600 hero+mythic dawncrests
crazy
and it's only 10 per key
wtf
yeah the tree is something i literally juist cnpd for that run to try it out lmao
should i be casting wg on CD? i wait to cast it when 3 or more people are hurt
Not really but there’s also no point in it sitting there off CD for lengths of time. Need to get better knowing when a WG will give you enough mastery stacks to get through healing and back to dpsing.
I've never done real caster dps as resto before. Do I enter Moonkin form or do I just cast my damage spells in caster form? The post linked in resources calls it Owlweaving but doesn't actually mention what to do in terms of moonkin form
just got a Myth Echo of L'ura trinket, worth anything for resto?
not particularly
You don’t go into boomkin form. If you are using the DOC build then you probably have fluid form and it will put you into owl when you cast dmg spells
I imported the wowhead build and it doesn't have fluid
But with the recommended builds, don’t shift
M+ build that is
The wowhead doesn’t use doc
