nah
its old way that whenever a class is busted in m+
it never affected raids
but when raid class is busted, its affecting m+ too
cursed cycle
indeed i didnt play at that time
we were genuinely the most useless healer on the planet and they ignored it cause of keys
then nerfed our damage too
idk though this journey was basically guaranteed the moment blizz said "lets buff druid mastery through the stratosphere"
itll still be good everywhere tbh
I'd rather they have nerfed it more and not taken 3% from everywhere
no they should have aura nerfed more and left apex
yeah idk im more m+ focused
were gonna be back to no apex build
are you sure
I dont think so (sadly)
there is a bit of a chance
would be lame as hell
how wild is the nerf on rDruid in the raid guys?
I think apex will still be about 3% ahead of apex, maybe run apexless on fights where the whole raid is taking very even damage
just pin this nerf math already lmao
but I hate apex and would rather it die
its only been what 15minutes since the news
oh pardon me 1 hour 15 minutes ago
time sure flies fast
crazy that they buffed everbloom by >100% to buff us by 8% then nerfed apex and the rest of our kit by 7% to force us into apex
I would've rather just stayed in the old build, but now even it is nerfed
Yes we do and the last changes are literally in the top pin?
fresh 1,5 week noob
lol
can't just go around pinning random guesses... we aren't warlocks
the actual math is that only the aura nerf counts because everbloom does infinite over heal hps and nerfing it does nothing :^)
what i dont understand is the person in charge of druid. They want us to be good on raid, but then hate it when we are good in raid. Like bruh make up your mind
their math is not mathing
cuz there no way to stop us from being good on M+ unless they destroy the class
like they dont even know how to properly balance uhdk stuff
they using that new math which as 20 step to complete something like 50 divided by 5
not as cooked as belo
dk discord is uproar again in there, it's slowmoded. my god
it's actually a nothingburger this time anyway, it was overbuffed aoe and then nerfed a lil, nbd
really isn't much, still will do well
plagued by dmg bugs and then nerfed after some were fixed
bit of a st hit in raid but still ok, literally a wee bit
Druid devs strike again! Yay Druid buffs….
i liked what they did with the teir tokens this xpac though
On a scale of 1-10, 10 being Diana Russini type shame, how ashamed should I be of only doing like 5k dps on 15+ keys?
its w/e's healer dps on aoe is a joke, but you should be owning shit on bosses
I feel like bad things happen when i start dps'ing
May 5th Tuning: Link
- All healing reduced by 3%
- Everbloom heals for 20%/40% of Lifebloom's bloom healing (down from 25%/50%)
The Apex and aura nerfs add up to a combined 6-7% in raid and a little less in Mythic+. We'll still be very good in both.
No talent changes based on the changes.
I feel like my dps is stronger on aoe rn with the bugged starfire
We'll still be very good in both.
with pugs, this is definitely true
It’s almost a whole 8%
Yeah, and 8% is basically 9.
May as well roundup to 10
7% gg gonna go get my fists ready
they really let there be a whole 2 weeks of this patch where mw wasn't the best healer
can you believe it?
gotta nerf disc and druid immediately
My favorite comment so far on wowhead for Druid buffs
where is everyone spending their bonus rolls
nexus point or mythic alleria
right, myth ring would be nice
if you do no raiding windrunner is an ok place to look too for trinkets
and ofc mythic lura but like, yeah...
i have myth gaze and hero ribbon, we're not on alleria yet
Alleria is probably the biggest bang for your buck
its ring, bis chest, very good/bis weapon
idk what weapon is considered bis but that one is probably pretty close
i do have myth chest too
If you don't have myth gaze and you aren't in a guild you trolling if you don't send on m chim
and am rolling the 285 crafted weapon for now, don't see myself spending more crests on spark crafts for another embelishment so it feels good
can the rolls on aleria give the neck?
2 weeks of rolls is 50% shot at bis trinket which will be second item you upgrade with ascendant cores altho idk how soon after your first you get a second
Sending on alleria is better
Yup
Yeah if you raid
oh yeah i want that haste and mastery haha
Hard to pug m alleria tho I'd wager
Depends on what else you can spend crests on
for me weapon upgrade was definitely worth the crests
have the chest sitting waiting to be crested up
and 4 rolls waiting to be sent
Yeah with 4 rolls you can probably get plenty of items
🐐
hmm I just now realized germination rejuvs count for abundance...
i wasnt talking about rdudu in that context
I love late Friday night tuning 🤪
I was hoping for cat buffs personally
cat is great at like keys and 1 of 9 bosses
does it affect m+ much
but at least its the most important boss that cat is good at
like we could feel it in high keys
also holy crap boomy is going to just giga gap every other class at new bird
80s of egg phase and in incarn for 60s of it
how we feel about the resto druid nerfs team
sell, sell, sell, immediately pivot to a new class and dont look back, the end times are nigh
eh, i think the everbloom nerf was warranted, but not the 3% overall healing nerf lol
just go mw they'll probably be on top for another 4 months+ anyways
yeah im in that same boat
also the disc change just feels like caving into weird community pressure
buffing atonement by 5% in dungeon just cause people are mad about voidweaver being more shit than it already was
Why would they buff resto just to nerf it , are they stupid ?
meanwhile raid atonement is like nerfed by 30% from release in raid now
no
can i LOS the glaves in Magister's TErrace
nah not dooming
just questioning the 3% overall nerf
but i saw it coming as soon as the buff came out, fun detected
is it a big nerf?
3% all healing
check pins
Hey guys do yall have tips for seat of triumvirate tentacle boss? Is it just me or does incap roar not CC the tentacles
Is it mw reroll angle? 🤣
called it. fuckin MW man
Do mws really just spin and heal ?
Pretty much
I mean… before this tuning we are/were pretty ridiculous in raid
Yeah, less so, but yeah.
It seemed pretty overtuned to me I think this will be sweet spot
I want high numbers to be an expression of skill not just gifted and this will probably be closer to that
you don’t have to cc the tentacles just heal through it
Haha somehow I can't keep up with it very sad 🙁
If u cc the tentacles, they might cast 2 or 3 on the same person and it can be an instant death
Ok so the tentacles are more or less a heal check haha?o
trying to cc them is just a waste of globals that you could be healing with instead
Ok thanks guys 🙂
just spread hots and spam regrowth
not much more to it than that
lifebloom yourself or someone squishy there
i like self
idk bout the really high keys tho only done 18
I saved convoke and trink for that ohase but ppl still tumble haha
Gotcha
LOL I'm only at 16 , cooked
make sure you got hots on the people theyre targeting
that shouldnt be the hard part
lol
will this change any of our playstyle?
with lb on us
not really
still optimal to set lb on self for slightly more mastery value/photo blooms
Nah - need to do more math on apex vs non-apex build but nothing else really changes
self lb for raids right?
Yes, generally speaking
only real reason to not lb self is if you're not doing paladins heal absorbs ( you have a permanent 40% self-heal amp and you're inting if you're not), or to put it on a melee in cosmos p2, or lura seeds
maybe dragons if you're doing 2 tanks? does anyone do that?
Nah you lose so much healing on apex by not lbing self
Btw whats the diminishing return for mastery. Is it that worth to double rejuv ppl ?
idk mang, those 2 or 3 melee on crown get fucking destroyed
I know random spells and wildstalker roots prefer us, but is the splash healing from EB affected by all of our dumb heal amps?
I feel like it is affected cuz it heals so much more when i have LB , but i dont have math or proof
yeah it hasnt even been out long enough that I've cared to test it
idk in general I just cant believe how tanky druid is rn
druid and priest both feel crazy when I compare myself to how littly my guildies have
but at least priest has an excuse when I look at how they literally cant move
but also I would kill to have evoker/mw mobility so it's fair I guess
covered dragons prog for a friends guild as mw and jfc
Wdym
The splash is affected because its based of the bloom healing
So yeah
like if I trigger a bloom with forestwalk running? ok yeah I thought it copied the whole thing but hadnt actually checked
If you have 24% perma from forestwalk and talents and then 2+ blooms for mastery + 40%+ from vig creepers its a lot of increase on the bloom therefore the splash
Thats the whole reason we play ws
idk man I just pick one some pulls and pick the other some pulls and see which makes more number
then stick with that
Barkskin also makes blooms stronger
if we did run no apex build we would go back to keeper of the grove right? so part of the calculation of apex vs no apex would have to include the throughput of each hero talent tree. I wonder what the % throughput from each hero talent tree would be, and if that would impact our choice
Ws was better numbers even before apex changes
Kotg is more burst
ah ok
perm forest walk, wat are u casting rg on yourself ever 5 seconds?
Why yourself?
With new tuning, is apex still the best? Or are we apex-less again in raid?
It procs off any casts
might wanna read forest walk again
ant cast?
we dont know yet
my vibemath says it will still be apex but not by much
Basically same talents be ran on reset im guessing?
youll be safe with the same talents
In this log
Apex is 19.5
With the nerf itll go down to 15.5
Thats on pair with no apex
that seems low end for apex tho
idk though I think people will stick to apex since it's just a lot less effort for similar outcome
looking through my paladins logs im consistently 23-24%
also because it encourages the player to make themselves invincible
I played through all of lura with apex, I am not swapping off even if its slightly worse
drops to 18.5
if its equal to no apex im especially not swapping off because apex lb is insane for crystal healing
Goat behavior
is the 3% healing going to set us behind meta for m+? idk 3% doesnt seem like much
do you lifebloom yourself for entire fight?
Yup
yeah im done
especially what
points go into like embrace or whatever ok so the spell youre already casting less of
fuck it just rip through
The % depends on the overall hps
Probably but not sure about apex 4
Apex 4 was 8% iirc
Apex 4 did 6.84 on my log
Yeah that tracks
I dont care if it's kinda fake healing, I will do the infinite self-hps until I start to care again next tier
Man we got to be strong for 1 week… why does blizzard hate us
Its going down to 5.44
and I will eat 50 balls on beloren and do a lura crystal
Afyer nerf. And i can take 1 min voke
What do you take that's 5.44% tho
1 min voke and 2 tv
I already have both those
You drop nb? Xd
Apex in my log wouldve done 15.5% after nerf.
And apex 4 is 5.5
If i keep phosy apex will do 10 but ill get 1 min voke and 2 tv
Seems good trade
Voulks right they shoulda went bigger aura and not touched apex
Yep
Even at 15.5 non apex will still be the same hps
And u get to keep tree for movement
Do you go back kotg then if back to refo
@marsh prism 
Idk
Gross
No
sorry to every single person who was just notified that im no longer giga busy
rip to my dms
I honestly have no clue how many of my blooms are from photo vs r4 apex
but I assume like 15-21 less blooms per minute is bad
I would at least imagine you want all 4 ranks if you take any
i really fuckin hope we dont play treant tree
21 is like on the very high end of convoke and renewing surge throughput
I kinda like kotg, I really dig dryad ironbark laser and doing 25% more healing after convoke
but idk I would just nuke or heavily design both hero trees, they both feel so fucking passive and meaningless
at least it's a little better than like mw where one tree has the class's main cd and the other has fuck all
eww i dont wanna go back to refo
I mean, if you don't like refo, then you definitely just stick to apex right/
cause at that point you're losing it just for 2/2TV and embrace.
and like? swapping out swiftmend healing for the wild growth talent?
idk I was never totally sold on that 4th talent point, nothing felt great for that one
there's like 3 really good points when you drop apex with 2/2 TV, embrace, and refo then you just like do something with the alst one
whether it's drop swiftmend bonus for WG unstoppable growth or like throw it in some other random 1.5-2.5% hps talent
About 1/3 from apex 4
Just count sm casts
huh that's like surprisingly linear value
especially since I feel like I waste a lot of those ones anyways cause I'm just trying to swiftmend as much as possible
Well it accounts to 1/3 of eb healing
Roughly
Looking at 3 logs
Its gonna be a 5% pt after nerf
Refo can be 5
refo can be a 10% talent if you're as bad at movement as I am
my main concern is I feel like with apex we're doing a hell of a lot of fake self-hps, and maybe that's a better reason to play apexless, but also if they keep just putting 2M heal absorbs in every other fight...
Is there any way to check the dungeon history of an applicant on queue?
Like how good have they been doing lately?
But that only tells me the highest keys they've done, no?
warcraftlogs
Nah
You can check last runs
And if it was deplete or no
how
either expand the dungeon drop down menu at the bottom or check their "verified loadouts" drop down on their profile
I’m sure it hasn’t be calculated but does anybody know how much of a nerf we’re supposed to get ?
Feels bad man
So are the nerfs bad for Rdruid for 12.0.7 I’m scared to look
Are they bad 🥹
6-7% is bad no matter how you look at it, but we' are still gonna be good
Why are they doing this 😒
dw about it just reroll monk
I don’t like monk lol
67
Always will
So is the changes going to be noticeable?

about a 6-7% difference id wager
Its ok guys we will do 235k instead of 250k now
mattiu
Is it okay
these guys dont do 250k
Is it
its joever for these sprouts
Oh im sorry guys
So MW nerf when lol?
Im gonna swap to DoC for raid
and also brocc
It’s easier on the mental to think of it as we’ll still be stronger next week than we were before the patch
REAL
My brain doesnt work like that though
its just easier to play the game for the enjoyment
ok well you can also think of it like you already werent playing at 100% efficiency anyway so in all likelihood you still have room and hps to improve anyway (which is a buff to you personally)
Whoa, enjoyment?
hmm
Ratcare
R1 did 250
hps 233 average rdruid lb uptime 2.33%
Joever for him
Ya
P4 is fake tho
So ill say alleria hps is the most non fake
Paladins fake, beloren is a joke
P4 lura is fake
its neutral just a 7% buff in keys
according to saeldur
I'm struggle with spot healing in 16 17 key, like the ravager in AA, if dps dont use defensive, I just cannot top him up in time, any advice for spothealing?
I'm at 277 ilv btw
It’s okay they’re apparently going to be doing 5-7% buff nerfs every single week to multiple specs a week so we’ll be alright
Down one week up the next ez
Ah it shows only completed runs, right? not abandoned ones.
not abandoned ones no but untimeds
Right, that's good enough
But I check myself and I voted to abandon a run like 1 hour ago but it doesn't show up
I think that's for ragequitters
none of you were running raider io possibly
addon data is only refreshed every 8h or so (non-prem)
that too
could be that
You mean like the addon? or is there a way to log runs like wclogs?
i think if you have the addon in game or desktop either way that info gets grabbed
and most groups you do are gonna have at least one person
having it
im not 100% on how that works or if they can just grab that info from blizz api
Nice. Only small ish nerf. We survived.
you're supposed to doom fyi
Apparently it's premium only? that could be it
6/6 Champion Ribbon vs 6/6 Hero Coach Whistle
that premium only for specific levels
all the info is there
you can check entire season
without premium
should i be dooming about rdruid nerfs
nah
we ride the wave, i will never be caught rerolling
how do i best use hotw for damage in keys? in moonkin in aoe and cat ST?
cat st always
Is regenesis worth taking over lifetreading?
Hey all, never really shared logs before so if there is a better way to do this or if you would want the full link to it please lmk, but figured I could share more info on my play than just generally asking "fuck this elemental please give help". Just finished a 15 Algethar (thankfully timed) and am continuing to get my everloving ass beat in by Veximus, iirc we had three deaths on the attempt with a shammy ankh.
Kind of just wanted a quick glance to see if anything stood out as blatantly wrong, I know there's only so much that can be gleamed from a quick glance at the logs. Had two convoke casts iirc, doesn't represent convoke itself but what convoke casted in the logs I believe?
no
Ty
Is that magnitude of nerf justified? Doing a bit of napkin math it looks like MW and Pres will be back on top after the nerfs?
I see, it's weird it won't show my abandoned runs, maybe I just gotta wait.
link the log, hard to give specific actionable advice without it but from a glance your lifebloom usage is illegally bad, it should be 100% uptime and it's at 33%
Lb uptime feeds efflo, splashes onto teammates with everbloom and Blooms a whole bunch of times when you press swiftmend with it up
Idk if it's hyperbole to say that you're losing 40% hps off that alone
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/GZM3Kq8bn694pPXk?fight=last&phase=1&type=healing&source=3
that is very fair lmao, yeah that is god awful. I recognize I have a tendancy to tunnel on Rejuv/Regrowth when I'm feeling panicked and that is definitely demonstrated in the Lifebloom uptime. I wish I was able to have it tracked separately, much larger than the other things being tracked by the Cooldown Manager
Not to say that it would make no difference, I struggle to believe that it would singlehandedly resolve the issues I'm dealing with regarding the Puddles + Knockback aoe nuke, that's the one that really wrecks me
yeah you're pressing rejuv infinitely too much
The only hard overlap in the fight is mana void popping on 3 people -> Fissure nuke as you identified, where you most likely should have sm + rg timed for when mana voids pop, then rip a wg+convoke or wg+ ns regrowth during the run
Voids pop -> top them with sm rg -> wg as boss starts fissure channel -> convoke or ns rg while moving
bait it onto yourself
stack hots on yourself, be the furthest away from it and it'll target you 100% of the time
do we always want LB on ourselves in raid?
yuh
Also leave lb on either dps or yourself in this fight, idk why you're swiftmending tank at all when vexamus barely hurts the tank in this encounter unless they do degen 4/5 ball soaks at which point they should be using personals
Rejuv is my default spam while moving so my casts are probably a little inflated on that, but fair to keep in mind.
I get what you're saying with those three big nuke combos, but I am struggling with execution timing on them I suppose, the window between the pop->fissure is like four seconds and I have difficulties getting all three targets up in time without Convoke available. It realistically is a practice-diff, but it feels bad when my practice comes in increments of one pull per 25+ minutes at the risk of someone else's key lol
boy do we have the addon for you https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/lifebloomalert
keeping tank maxed with all of my hps stuff at all times is a bad habit I taught myself while leveling and doing low keys at the start of the season that I've been trying to wax myself off of, I generally default to putting Lifebloom + Regrowth + Double Rejuv on tank and trying to keep as much uptime on them as possible with Swiftmend.
Figuring out how to actually optimize LB is the next big thing for me I think
oh my god, fucking bless
also m33kauras if you want to download a weakaura fork
If you're struggling that hard with mana void you can ramp rejuv, wg then tranq a set and the hot extension should carry over past the pop into the fissure
I've seen some stuff about m33k but I never got big into using WA during DF or TWW so I'm honestly not sure what all I'm missing out on
I think the absolute best thing you can do based on that log is press lb way more
oh i mean lifebloom alert on it's own is good enough
And extend it with swiftmend
weakauras if u had lb weakauras before and maybe u want them back
The talent setup I'm using isn't speccing into Flourish (the extender), but I like that conceptually
Find whatever addon or setting you need to facilitate you remembering to press lb even if it's a big ass square right in the middle of your screen covering your character and showing a dancing tree

we are so back

nice now that your lb uptime is going to be 100% you should be made aware that moving it around too much is really bad too
Bc it loses its stacks
Referring to the Apex? Sure, that makes sense. Do you have any tips on how to best prioritize LB targets for someone who has kind of been absentmindedly slapping it on the tank for the most wildstalker triggers?
on packs you can probably get away with keeping it on tank most of the time but if there's a lot of party damage, either you (self has a lot of selfhealing amps which translates into party healing via everbloom) or squishiest ally is the right choice
hard to give general rules past that, you gotta learn what does dmg in dungeons to who
is rotation LB worth it to lose 3 stacks?
for sure, Tank >= Me > Paper Mage/Aug is a good enough starting point for me to get to work with it though. I appreciate you taking a look at the logs and walking me through some obvious improvement points I should be looking for
if you're playing an aug comp I'm pretty sure the default target is Aug or mage bc their defensives suck ass
lmao I had the read, yeah
Long time restos, what’s it like playing the spec in worlds where it’s not number 1. (Thinking like DF S2 where bear and hpal were kings). Still easy to get groups because of healer queue?
Attempted a 16 WS earlier with an Aug and it was kind of miserable ngl
might've been a better attempt if I had some of the knowledge I do now though so here's to my next runs with it tomorrow. Appreciate all the help again, hope y'all have a nice night 
can reduce insane amounts of healing req in WS by using stops properly, stops on birds/axe throwers when fire nova overlap and clearing debuffs early on last boss actually reduce key difficulty by like 3 levels
can respond to that rq before I shutdown; when it comes to stops, our only solution for those is Cyclone iirc, yeah? Otherwise it's praying on dps?
incap roar then ursol +typhoon is another
Ursol typhoon has the benefit of stacking axethrowers too
If you're a tauren you can war stomp, then after that it's probably reliant on your dps
Soothe is good after they enrage too, if you're running with brew or bear you can deal with both immediately after enrage
All your focus towards third boss ws and during the fight should be on minimizing axe throws and making sure they're not lining up with other party dmg
Think Typhoon is the one I meant, the aoe knock-back, not the pick-up one, my bad. Also still working on learning what Roar stops and what it doesn't, thats a work in progress
How does the Typhoon Ursol interaction work? Am entirely unfamiliar with that
Ursol pulls them back to the center if they move out -> typhoon moves them out so they snap back to the center of ursol cast, nicely stacked up for your dps
Call it a poor man's death grip
Careful with that, though. It could sync some nasty mobs in certain pulls.
Oh, that's clever, cool. I've had Ursol on my bar forever but I have struggled to find actual uses for it, will keep that in mind
yeah be a little wary with doing that, there are packs where resetting mob swings with that combo will global your tank if you do it without warning
WS is thankfully not one of them
If you're the greatest planner in the world you could also catform, save up some combo points and maim an axe thrower
ain't nobody doing that tho
Maim ?
maim confirmed goated on last boss skyreach
💀
not as goated as having hoj for every single one tho
Oh yeah Maim. Sorry i don’t remember all english spell name
Don’t take maim 😂
Why not
Nothing else to take
It's nice
Yeah meld rake is better but 2 min cd
need to see someone send meld rake into maim on axethrowers bc they're getting a Nobel prize
thoughts on upcoming nerf?
You can comfortably put up Rip and build back 5 combo points during the laser beam part where nobody is taking damage. There's legit nothing else particularly valuable to pick.
Fair enough
yeah kinda bummed but it makes sense
Honestly was expecting them to go harder on the apex nerf
Was expecting them to bring it to the 30% we had before .5
Probably still a net buff from .0
Anyone have something similar to purrformance lifebloom alert for swift mend?
I tried CDM alert but it’s so much louder and I hate it
who the fuck is responsible for class tuning
is it Mr. Claudio Codi
I want their names

Its not like we still wont be the best m+ healer
We dont only heal m+
Phys comp go brrr
I'm not talking about resto specifically
The guardian changes are atrocious however 😂
Resto was arguably a bit too good and it's w/e but my point is that it looks like no one has absolutely any idea of how to approach tuning this season
Brew - Arms - Feral - Outlaw - RSham stonks
True
buff 5
hmmm buff 5 again
no wtf too strong nerf 15
no wait buff 5...
It’s nicer to get small incremental buffs than a big buff and a nerf after
Prot pally +10% armor 
They're great wdym
I look forward to playing much more guardian
The problem has always been the apex talents and guardians burst, its sustain is shite
Ok so they nerf the apex talent and buff the sustained damage
Did we read the same patch notes?
They buffed mangle, nerfed everything else including the apex
It tackles exactly the problematic design part of the spec and nerfs it in situations like Lura while being a minimal numeric change in M+
Just nerf the apex and start there
Sorry thrash not mangle
The flip-flopping on MM hunter is beyond laughable imo :/
I would argue you only needed to nerf the echo, not nerf the rest
Anybody remotely miffed about this guardian tuning really is telling on themselves
idk I think id be ok with them nerfing the echos more and default raze less
but also if they nerf echo by much more than 25% then you just skip it
How do you say it's lazy when you wanted LESS of a change?
I mean the whole saga of them last minute buffing bear apex by 300% a week before xpac release was lazy
You wanted them to change less, so they changed MORE and you say it's lazy
Make it make sense
I’ve always wanted less power tied into guardians incarn window
So they’ve transferred a load of power into thrash, does it achieve that? Yes
I mean thats what the df rework was, just then bear became a 2min too
But did we need 3 sets of nerfs then whatever this is to make thrash no1 press now?
We shall see - how does this effect shields? Will it get nerfed next week?

Long-shot but does anyone in NA have an alt group or something running MChim this weekend? Havent raided at all so far this tier but want my Gaze so I tried pugging today and non-CE groups are… rough. I know mechs/am capable of pushing buttons, just lack CE.
My guild’s team is taking me on Tues but I’d love a voidcore use before then.
You probably want to specify the region
the thrash shield got buffed by about as much as the raze shield got nerfed I think? still a big nerf to their raid st/add burst
but imo the biggest issue with bear is that the guides are horrible and not telling people to pick up middle talents and basically running a raid build in keys
they'd be a really solid 2nd place in dungeons instead of a distant 2nd
Honestly you're right, you can just take out starfire
You lose frenzied regen tho if u were playing that
not that I am
U r very smart. Thanks ❤️
its too late M chim is unpuggable unless you are a prot paladin, lock, dk, or shaman.
(even the CE pugs are that stinky, the best I've found is 3 wipes with mandatory voice)
I've done it every week on some char or another but it feels like it's getting harder.
other weeks it was like an hour but you'd get closer and get it, this week I had to just give up and bail on 2 pugs then find a good one
i mean if someone leave after bad pull then its 50/50 either only 1 person leave or domino where half of raid is gone
like, I don’t mean to be a jerk but, if I’ve literally never seen the fight and then step in and am doing triple the hps of another healer… that’s not good.
I haven’t raided in over a year.
It’s an ez fight.
yeah that's about how any pug raid goes if you're concious of playing the game at all
it's super easy and then you're feared and die
the worst is if you're asked to play boomy or spriest.
(2 kicks in the whole add phase pog)
actually spriest kinda owns if your pug has good dam (just spam shackle)
well 1 time i had healer who said they know how to do madness(he was in group with me) and when i got madness debuff he went to swap me 💀
idk how this works but because of that both of us were outside
leaving our group with no healer
i didnt even know its possible
yeah it stuns and transfers everyone in like 5 yards of you
other time i had tank who went other side on intermission
killing us all
i did 34% parse and was almost top 1 healer there
I had a dps dk manage to live tanking the big add with some externals once (unfortunately not the kill), but that grp at least got the kill later
man do I have to go mw now in keys because pugs wont invite rdrus anymore
yeah idk how you even parse on chim unless you're carrying like 3 50k hps randos
it feels like theres just no healing
and 3 healing it sounds like a logistics nightmare
i was assigned to second consume healing
so in the end other druid got healing
i just used tranq for fun
theres only really 3 consumes but you can still tranq consume 2 and 3
they're just far enough apart for it
it*
Honestly, Resto Sham is the better shout
and i was just keeping it on tank
im new to healing so yeah
now i know to keep LB on myself
that sounds dreadful tbh I never liked playing around healing raid totem
I don’t like it either. Just a lot of people in 20s either trying to run Phys comp or UDK+DDH+Demo.
im close to finishing resi 20 on druid reroll will be pain
im having hard time doing my first 15
im getting 2x shadow bolt to my face every run because no interupts
or dps just get hit by big circle projectile
my least part of healing the few hard keys ive really done this season is just how some dps classes genuinely feel like they're immortal and others feel like they're playing something 5 key levels higher
Is it actually better to raid heal as wildstalker than KOTG?
like I just did an 18 algethar and my job appeared to be to heal the hunter
cause apparently dh and dk and brew dont even need a healer
i got resil 14 and did only like 3 15 keys and didnt time single of them
i gave up lowkey
Yes.
for the most part, it was already pretty good last patch and with the apex setup it's insane, the main benefits of kotg is just the burst from having like 5 trees up after convoke and the extra cd on convoke.
in raid do you guys wait with soul of the forest to heal when raid is +- full hp or use it right away to spread hots?
Yeah but honestly they just last such a short time rn this burst window is barely better than WS with Root Network stacks too. And we dont peak burst healing like that anymore anyways outside of Tranq
Yeah im struggling in 15s-16s aswell. In that weird spot where dps just dont seem to know what really needs kicked or when to use defensives properly. Have 2 rejuv a wg and a regrowth on them they get 1 shot and still say "healer???"
i often have 4 hots on whole party and they somehow die, then i watch some top druids play 20 keys and they rarely have 2 hots on someone

It's the general problem when you get behind the "curve" you start to play with worse players
once i have trinkets, should i in general keep my loot specialization to balance for better chance at other items; i guess i can swap it per M+
As long as you play well you should be able to get out of this hellhole eventually but I know how terrible it feels
just keep sending the swiftmend on cd. blooming frenzy is good, but not losing 40s of rejuvs and lifeblooms good.
so basically just spam on cd even if raid is full hp? also if i keep LB on me i assume i should switfmend myself to extend?
yeah for the most part, you can feel free to send it on someone else, especially if they're low hp, but for the most part just keep extending the hots on yourself for abundance/lb refresh value
last i read, i was told to siftmend on CD on the lifebloom target and then use the next heal proc on rejuv
also does it matter who do i proc soul of the forest on? like do i use hots on myself with soul or i can do someone else?
maybe theres a time to hit regrowth instead
yeah, idk I do feel like there's like maybe 1 damage event in some fights I was getting with that extra sliding convoke window, but I do really have to say that wildstalker is just so good I can't figure out if that's bad at all (and I played ws on alleria before the patch even).
You don't proc SOTF on people
The apex heal procs around you
Or whoever has LB on
so it doesnt matter who do i reju with soul forest?
Nope
it doesn't even matter who you swiftmend
just slap rejuv
(even tho you want to want to SM yourself in raid to extend LB)
Perma SOTF on REjuv is a raid thing
is there a way to track the uptime duration remaining on trinkets with the new ui restrictions?
With addons - yes
whats the play for M+ ?
i often use soul on regrowth when i see few very low hp people with nature swift
EQOL has the option
thanks
Any CD manager addon can yeah
Other CDMs have the option too
what would you guys say a 13 maisara overall hps should be around? I forgot to log mine <.<
Between 60 and 120k
Thats a meaningless question
You cant heal any more than the group took in damage, so that depends just on the damage taken
Better question then: How much damage should the dps take if they do their jobb in a maisara 13 ?
xD
so if i got a multitool from NPX, should i skip crafting the aln hara cane entirely?
its a mythic track tool
i mean we 2 keyed it, so it was not rly a problem just felt like i had to sweat more then i any other key ive ever done.
Yeah then you should just craft 2x Arcanoweave
just got it as i got the crests to craft the cane
so i can either 6/6 it and skip the craft
The sweating difference comes from the competence difference
of the whole group
but i see that cane is overwhelmingly the top druid healing staff, but maybe thats cause its crafted and season started not long ago?
It's very easy to get a group that does no kicks/aoe stuns or just stands in avoidable damage you didnt know existed
And suddenly it feels harder
Correct
im not sure when season started
Everyone crafted cane, not many people dropped the NPX wep
i just started playing again last wednesday, so like 9 days now
how do you guys manage mana in raid? i often oom and have to spam wrath for mana
Corespark Multitool?
lets play without APEX in demonstration against these vile nerf
is there any difference in going for a 1h/oh if i got the corespark maxed?
any difference/reason*
wha
You can/want to use Hero crests to upgrade a Hero item to 6/6 on the slot you have Myth for, this gives you a 20 crest discount to hitting 6/6 Myth, if you can.
Abundance
Ofc if you're still gearing up and dont even have items to use every Myth crest on, this isnt meaningful, just send the upgrades
While having someone look over your log is a great way to improve, learning a few key metrics to look out for can enable you to review your own log - even between pulls. I'd recommend picking one of the below that you're not doing well and focus entirely on improving it for a few pulls. Once you're satisfied with it, add a second bullet point. T...
post log !
thats good to know, cause i literally didnt know but was lucky that i had a 6/6 hero final grade
Yeah so if you can do the same for other slots too. Idk how many hero crests someone gets atp gearing up a new toon or catching up on gear
im actually running thin on hero crests atm
Hero crests is the real bottleneck for gearing alts
which is so fking stupid
Yep you dont regrowth
yep
also i donno how trinkets work
ah bad habbit of mine to overspam reju
i guess i gotta have 2 trinkets at the same tier in track upgrades for it to be free for a new trinket?
Yes, same with rings
same with rings probably
so i get 12 abund stacks and when do i stop using regrowth? at like 10 stacks?
kk
Not really a bad habbit, its more that you dont understand the ramping cycle
which 2 crafted pieces should i go for now that i got the weapon from NPX ?
belt boots?
Yeah I think those are good crafts - Assuming you're coining NPX, you'll most likely get chest
Ramp to 12 and regrowth until 6
the new ritual thing is pretty nice for it. was just spamming rank 5 as quick as possible with 20 per
when i have 6 i apply againt till 12 and repeat over and over?
20 hero crests?!
yeah
God damn time to gear some demons
Yes you cycle
okay thank you very much
Look for a 1:1 ratio
1 reju = 1 regrowth?
got the hero chest from NPX, guess i gotta keep trying for it
okay
i read that bonus rolls remove the loot from the pool of the M+, if i disenchant an item i got from a bonus roll, does it put it back in the pool?
Getting the most out of abundance is very important
do i want to use innervate early in the fight to use as much as possible?
Mostly yep
You want to get most uses out of innervate and to spend it on a ramp
If you look at llorgs you can see when most use it
Rejuv and wg are mana heavy
Which will be just to maximize uses yeah
The chinese getting 10 innervate 
Haha
oh i didnt know about this website thanks
Vrocas is usually a sound llorgs to follow for raid timings
And check for more recent llorgs as most Druids switched from kotg to WS which affected timings a fair bit
alright
Yeah I think if I play other healers gotta be priest or shaman, casters
Might gear them next
After myth achiev
Im up in the air on either resto sham or mistweaver
Dunno what to choose
That or i just go rogue and gear my warlock 🤔 or worse yet start playing feral
The feral discord is unhinged though, scared to go there
I hear so many good things but idk I just can’t get with the whole spinning crane kick spam
i see that people are making the belt for sure as crafted, but is the boots worth it over the bracers?
i only plan to do M+
@gaunt willow when i see someone have 2x innervate within 15 sec that means other druid buffed them?
Yep usually from a friendly balance or feral Druid
oh alright
when i have LB on me i want to have as many hots on me as possible right?
In raid yep your LB target wants 2x rejuv, regrowth hot and wildgrowth hit and then VI them all for a big burst of bloom healing
VI them?
verdant infusion
oh
Verdant
Infusion
extend their hots with swiftmend
Extend the hots
It’s a dumb gameplay at the moment but that’s the deal
Makes the LB target invincible - usually you haha
to apply wildgrowth on myself i must target right?
alright
this llorgs website is great information source
it makes healing so much easier lol
yeah i was often pressing convoke by random and tranq on big aoe
any tips on vorasius phase where he spawn this small bugs?
i often press tranquility when my raid is at like 40% hp but most of the time 1 circle spawn on me and i have to cancel it
How big is nerf rn?
Pre ramp before then and convoke on the move
Get back into position if your not fixated and start regrowthing
Id hold tranq on the next ramp after that once walls break
on this phase when we run from laser?
Yes, once your stood still
okay
How
its over, we gotta reroll to hpal
one more question on raid thing, do i use wild growth on cd?
Really?
6-7% pin says in raid, but less in m+, but we're back to where we were pre apex change, and pre apex change we were still BIS
for m+
We still run apex in raid or?
tbd
Yes
doublemonk aint a thing, we could be benched if brew falls off tho, monks are really really strong
i'd be more cautious if brew gets rekt
whats dg gg @marsh prism
dreamgrove.gg/resto i havent updated it in a bit since ive been busy but i got yelled at so im doing it
what would we be doin without you ❤️
playing kotg doc
Surely they don’t shoot brew though, then the last 3 tank players will quit
do i use wildgrowth on cd on raid?
nance do u have dev connections
to revert this apex change
you use it relatively when it comes off cd
but if nothing is happening
u obv dont press it
if i had dev connections they would ban me
How bad is it
alright thanks
how bad is what
The change
the nerf?
im done fucking swapping
and then they will see it and buff apex again
Just all stop using it and we get buffs ez
i pray we will not go back to playing tree
spec-wide sandbag agreement
just make tree form like moonkin that boost healing thanks
You’re quick lmao 😂 I was trying to use the search bar to find that link again but I suck at mobile
I’m using the grid2 from there but was gonna try something else, or maybe a different preset
im always here to help. tell your friends
i dont know anyone else that has publicly posted profiles other than voulks there
errr, just got a whispers of duskwraith from NPX bonus roll, it doesnt seem to be on any tier list for trinkets im looking at (archon/method) for M+
yeah i made same mistake and didnt change loot spec to balance
Well you got the healer trinket out of the way now
@marsh prism What you think are we done for this patch after coming nerf
do i need to do that before going into the M+ ?
no
i mean now u have trinket so u can keep resto loot spec
though it rarely matters to me as gm
I’m torn on next bonus as non raider. I’ve got wep/chest from NPX and ring/glove from MT. Mahbe try put chim

i forgot do i change loot spec to balance for vault too?
before the loot is chosen. in m+ it happens when you complete it
well my other 2 trinkets on my druid are a 256 4/6champ glorious crusader's keepsake (delve), and 256 4/6 champ light of the cosmis cresendo
this trinket is super bad
so i guess a 272 1/6 myth whispers will just flag out win vs that
you should be looking at qe
not those memey aggregate sites
just saw the nerfs, that will hurt 😛
should i just rule of thumb leave it as balance as default incase i forget in a M+ ?
if u keep rolling npx u dont have to
because u already got trinket
really want to get into the habit of swapping it for each dungeon when you're looking for specific pieces
u can see loot for each spec in adventure guide thing
if i max it then it barely beats out the delve one lol
yeah i wanna get the heart
https://www.archon.gg/wow/builds/restoration/druid/mythic-plus/trinkets/10/all-dungeons/this-week i was checking this website
lol a maxed myth duskwraith is on par with a 6/6 champ crusader and light of cosmis cresendo
via qe
Myth Chim is super puggable and the trinket is OP, especially since we will be upgrading it soon to 298
Yeah but after that
oh okay
Idk how long it takes to replenish the stuff
we can upgrade weapon + trinkets to 298 right?
AOTC/gear enough for an invite you think?
Yes
note that u can do madness + know mechanics
For sure, there's some pickier groups that might not take you without CE but majority are chill
I can’t and don’t, but will (jokes I’ll watch a vid)
its actually very easy to do madness
Hmmm my plans tonight have changed
Especially if you're not mythic raiding, Gaze is so far ahead of the other trinkets you'll have access to
Feel like I’ve had that many in heroic pugs kek
The trinkets that are close are all from pretty deep in Voidspire
only hard part in mythic chim is kicking fear
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/6j7Ap1tLBTQfKW3k?fight=29&position=327603 i did very bad there but kill is a kill, now i know better
Should you be casting more regrowthsand less rejuv or is that because a lot of movement?
i didnt know LB should be on me + i didnt really use abundance that much
i was doing many random things there lol
my only goal was not to die
That’s fair, that’ll be me lol
and since i was doing madness i had less time to heal because i was 100% focused to make sure i do madness correctly
other healer often didnt make it in time to mark and i had to find him lol
How hard will that nerf hurt @spark river
Get your spin and fists ready Druid is dead
its in pinned msg
i should never let LB fall off a target right?
ty
yeah
in M+ should i leave it on the tank or ever swap it to another party member, i figure it resets it to 1 stack if i swap
not sure if worth the trade off
Evokers and Monks must have some dirt on their devs to remain un-nerfed
i often just keep it on tank in m+
but when some mechanic that will hurt a lot go on dps i swap lifebloom to that dps
for example in academy i bait this wyrms jump on me and then i use LB on me
i dont trust dps players there
im a little new this season so i have no idea how to bait that
i started playing m+ this season so yeah im a noob
my journey with wow started in feb this year
before i maybe had like 2-3 months total playtime
shit
im here coming back from being gone for god knows how long (x.2 DF patch for a mont)
and legion before that i guess
how did u never play before feb?
i did play legion for like a month then bfa for maybe 2 weeks and 1-2 months war within
thats my total experience lol
this week i got my first mythic raid boss kill
i wasnt expecting this discord to still exist, last time i was in here was in legion lol
amazed that the resto channel gots a lot of traction too
if u stack in melee and tank a bit further out wyrms will jump only on him:D in higher keys if u do that ur dead in 2 jumps
or are u talking about the big vicious guy
my peak is +14 so it doesnt hurt that much
but baiting it only on u is troll, so many classes can cancel the cast and the nasty dot it leaves
often when i leave it to pug dps they die
heal them
in a 14 it won’t os
not even in a 19 afaik
I saw ragnon streaming raid he had cooldown times visible via an add on on his UI- anyone know what add on can do this?
idk how but when they get shot by it i try to heal them and they get random hit from something
yeah that’s from the wyrms
prob
that’s why u should stack in melee;D
yeah... we caught an aura nerf because they overtuned the apex
