dusk bluff
#

Anyone using the natural orders Will as balance druid in 2v2 or 3v3?

#

I want to try it for 2v2 with a rogue.

edgy shale
#

sorry im in an RBG, but sure u can get outta combat sometimes, but i was gonna say why not just stealth but i fuess ur not feral

dusk bluff
#

Having trouble staying alive for resets.

rich crag
#

@vestal citrus Would you find it any good for worlds or random bgs and nonsense like that ?

#

i guess it depends on playstyle also

fathom oxide
#

it works in duel

#

i will be bunny

#

it just seems weird

#

why hasnt anyone tried or talked about it

edgy shale
#

well u can't go potency w/ that and also koryan is kinda unexplored in general cuz its not great until the last talent thing

fathom oxide
#

yea sure

#

but i was playing dreamweaver

#

cuz i have that in pve

#

i now i look what i can get from koryan

edgy shale
#

maybe its good for resto i have no idea

fathom oxide
#

ok so the stun is alittle awkward

#

cuz its 2gcd

#

u need to pop soulshape first and then charge

clear pulsar
#

Its terrible u have to blink twice for the stun

#

So u come out of stealth and get put in combat before u have a chance

#

To actually use it

#

Sry this msg

#

The stun sucks

fathom oxide
#

ok

#

why

clear pulsar
#

Read up

#

???

#

3 messages above

fathom oxide
#

oh

#

didnt see x)

viscid quest
#

Anyone has a good guardian rbg fc guide there?

fathom oxide
#

or are u niya for 2x potency

#

(if nightfae)

edgy shale
#

i mean tomorrow koryan gets double potency

fathom oxide
#

i cant really change all my conduits for arena sinse i need to minmax for pve in my guild

#

so think ill have to run with korayn for pvp

#

surely must be better than dreamweaver lmao

exotic wolf
#

I like dreamweaver against melees

#

the slow after stuns, roots is great

fathom oxide
#

wait what

#

what ability is that

edgy shale
#

the passive on endurance

#

or is it potency? i forget

fathom oxide
#

oh yeah looks good for pvp

#

but i cant really keep swapping it

#

for pvp and pve

#

because of conduit energy

queen copper
#

you can swap between paths for free

#

just not the actual conduits

exotic wolf
#

exactly

#

yo master @vestal citrus
how many socket slots do you have? how much versa do you have?

clear pulsar
fathom oxide
#

sry i dont understand ;::(

clear pulsar
#

Conflux is best potency for evrything and everything else kinda sucks equally

exotic wolf
#

im missing like 2 or 3 sockets. am at 29.75% versa. is there any benefit of going over 30%? I heard there's a dr at 30%
@vestal citrus

restive cairn
#

What do u guys think about convoke nerf

fathom oxide
#

if i go dreamwavert i have to go to soothing boice

restive cairn
#

No full moon is it still legit?

fathom oxide
#

voice

clear pulsar
#

You can swap paths anytime

#

It doesnt cost a shard

#

Lol

fathom oxide
#

we need unstopple growth

#

in raids

clear pulsar
#

Idk what you're talking about swapping idk what spec you play or anything

fathom oxide
#

resto

clear pulsar
#

Then go niya

#

It doesnt matter idk

restive cairn
fathom oxide
#

korayn that bad?

clear pulsar
#

Conflux is bis for everything

#

Isnt it

fathom oxide
#

its 2nd for raids

#

first is wg

clear pulsar
#

Korayn is pretty pointless for healing compared to 400 mastery every 2 mins

#

I mean just read the powers

fathom oxide
#

yeah i understand, but i cant keep changeing between them

clear pulsar
#

What tree do u use in pve?

fathom oxide
#

i use both niya and dreamweaver

#

depending on fight

clear pulsar
fathom oxide
#

ask torty

#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

i could go niya but then i cant pick the last potency conduit

#

should i do that?

#

just to be clear im not here to argue with you i just want help :p

clear pulsar
#

Just do it like these and swap if you must idk potencies do so little lmao

errant blaze
#

Why is it that a balance doesnt wanna bond with the partner in arena? Says everwhere to bond with yourself but not why

#

Its purgable?

edgy shale
clear pulsar
#

Because bonding with partner = damage is wasted if either of you get ccd or peeled or isnt bursting

edgy shale
#

when people come in here expecting kyrian bind to be a reasonable ability that makse sense

errant blaze
#

Yea okay good point

fathom oxide
clear pulsar
#

If you bond with a healer it becomes purely a defensive spell and not a very good one at all either @errant blaze

clear pulsar
#

Ns cdr better imo

fathom oxide
#

was that sarcasm

edgy shale
fathom oxide
#

now this guy shows the necro conduits

#

so its not really the same

#

but he picked floral

clear pulsar
#

No he didnt

#

He says it in the guide

#

But his character has NS cdr equipped

#

And the adaptive swarm conduit

#

I mean he is a rdru main mostly and a great player but he has barely played rdru this season anyway

#

He streams everyday just ask him

#

Always playing disc priest his druid is like 195 ilvl. But has NS cdr equipped :)

fathom oxide
#

okey, i asked in this discord before what source i should be using and everyone said wowhead

clear pulsar
#

Yeah ofc

#

Like I said

#

Potencu conduits are weak

#

Very weak

#

Floral recycling is fine

fathom oxide
#

(for pvp)

clear pulsar
#

It doesnt matter

fathom oxide
#

okey

clear pulsar
#

Just copy kubxy

#

Kubzy

#

:))

#

Wowhead guide is good

#

But as u can see it was last updated december 7th

fathom oxide
#

where can i find what kubzy is using

clear pulsar
#

No written guide is maintained fully all the time

fathom oxide
#

:p

clear pulsar
#

Check-pvp. Can also ask a bunch of the streamers pinned.

#

It'll probably all be the same thing. Endurance conduits are more important, floral recycling is fine, ns cdr is fine, conflux is fine, whatever doesnt rly matter much in winning or losing games

#

Ns cdr feels the most impactful for me

fathom oxide
#

its 8 sec cd reduction

#

i could go endurance instead of potency

clear pulsar
#

Flop is evolved swarm, well honed, ready for anything
Kubzy same thing
Fnoberz same thing
Gilysel is evolved swarm, well honed, floral recycling
Nogard same thing
Minpojke same thing

#

There, 3 resto druid multi rank 1s playing one or the other

fathom oxide
#

with korayn

clear pulsar
#

Bruh lmao

fathom oxide
#

dont be mad at me ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

i dont even know what that swarm is

edgy shale
#

๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

lol yes u do

fathom oxide
#

its the necro thing?

clear pulsar
#

Its just a bit absurd in my head that u think going korayn over niya should be the play cuz u think 1 potency is more important or something

fathom oxide
#

no im going korayn so i dont have to use conduit engery, not because of potencies

clear pulsar
#

But i'm sure korayn is fine. 10% extra heal under 35% sounds decent. I wouldnt imagine it's better than grove invigoration but pretty decent.

clear pulsar
#

Ok bro

#

Good talk

#

I'm going to sleep more until my vault

fathom oxide
#

i think u missunderstood what i was going for

#

but im sorry for the trouble

#

good night

ashen smelt
#

tbh korayn's power is in that 15% physical DR at the bottom (which would be comp specific anyway)

errant blaze
lime light
#

Guys iam tired

#

Tired of trolling

#

Iam leaving bye

edgy shale
fickle junco
#

finally got 1600 gear upgrade~ ComfyBear

celest plume
#

Can (read as "should I instead of an off-spec") I bring a guardian to random BG's?

desert leaf
#

Are there certain races better than others for feral druid? (Alliance) I'm mainly considering the new races to see if they're worth unlocking

bitter harness
#

guardian druid is very good at defending bases and carrying flags :)

#

especially with the sleeper legendary (immune to CC during Berserk/incarn)

exotic wolf
desert leaf
#

alright, cool thanks

#

my favourite race anyways

bitter harness
#

shadowmeld rake

rich crag
#

some thoughts on taking strength of the wild over ferocious wound? (feral) seems neat in random bgs and world stuff anyway

tulip falcon
#

it's worth it if you pair with guardian aff

clear pulsar
#

It's good for 2 things yeah, surviving 1 shots like rogue+mage, rets, etc, and offhealing

tulip falcon
#

my duel/random build at the start of season was sotw/guardian/hotw

clear pulsar
#

Idk I don't feel sotw for duels

#

But I'd probably always take it in rbgs

tulip falcon
#

this was when everyone was just oneshotting early expac tho

#

haven't dueled since so idk

clear pulsar
#

Maybe not always!? Idk

#

Lotp fero sotw is my default for pmuch everything

#

But thorns can be great too

tulip falcon
#

it was the only way i survived rogues lmao

#

before reprimand nerf

clear pulsar
#

Like especially if you actually remember to use up your PS

#

It adds up to a lot of extra offhealing

tulip falcon
#

ye leader procs pretty much when its off cd

#

since theres so many crits

clear pulsar
#

I meant sotw

tulip falcon
#

ah

clear pulsar
#

Leader is great but more so for the crit? Idk not a whole lot of melees in rbgs for lotp to heal other people

tulip falcon
#

ye thought you meant about duels still

clear pulsar
#

But 5% crit for everyone is big juice

#

And yeah for yourself too ofc

#

The selfhealing is deeeecent

#

It's not as good as in bfa

#

But still pretty strong as a talent

tulip falcon
#

ye it adds up to a lot

clear pulsar
#

Bro swear to you I do same total healing as healers

#

Between barkskin leggo and sotw offheal crits

#

It's ridonk

#

And hilarious

tulip falcon
#

i was doing feral/boomkin 2s to help my friend in blues

#

i was out healing enemy healers

#

some games lasted like nearly 10 mins

#

as double dps

celest plume
bitter harness
clear pulsar
#

Yeah I feel like I can justify taking resto aff way more often with barkskin leggo too

#

Or even balance aff

#

Typhoon is no joke in some maps

tulip falcon
#

yea for sure

#

i just feel gimped without resto aff atm

clear pulsar
#

Vortex is my fav utility spell in druid

#

It's tremendous

#

And when you have a 25k hp bait on your team

#

You don't get trained

tulip falcon
#

lmao yeah

bitter harness
#

vortex is pog true

rich crag
#

i actually sometimes like to take the mass roots so i can run away and kite fuckers lol

#

I dunno i wish they would make typhoon something you can have no matter what....

bitter harness
#

@vestal citrus will Korayn be the play at some point for boomies in RBG?

cold escarp
#

BOAT goes on pants or feet?

bitter harness
#

yes

cold escarp
#

i mean which one

#

im guessing legs?

bitter harness
#

I made legs because 235 legs + 226 boots > 226 legs + 235 boots I think

#

budget wise

tulip falcon
#

idk vortex just ruins a melee trains' day and its so satisfying

#

it's just so useful since it can be used in shit ton of diff ways

#

good offensively too

wraith totem
#

highest stam/int stat weight will always be in head chest and legs so try and choose them for the highest value at 235

clear pulsar
#

Korayn for the 15% dr may be good in big tf maps for boomie yeah

#

Like eots or gilneas!?

#

But there's so little physical damage that's relevant in rbgs I feel

#

Niya is just too much dam imo

#

And maybe even dreamweaver with the haste proc at your feet

tulip falcon
#

idk i feel like standing still in rbg with a melee train on you isnt a good idea still even with 15% reduction

#

it probably wont feel like a whole lot in that situation

clear pulsar
#

Yeah probably

tulip falcon
#

you need to kite back and force them to overextend or pull back

clear pulsar
#

Compared to just running and dragging people out of position and wild charging away etc

tulip falcon
#

only option really

#

ye

#

i also want to know how first strike works properly

#

like if it resets if you break combat or what

#

and if it works on targets that are in combat but just haven't hit you

#

that would be big for boomkin

#

dot healers and whatever hasnt hit you and chain for 25% crit procs back to back

clear pulsar
#

It probably does work to be cheesed like that and could be good, idk tho Niya is so much dam in CA

tulip falcon
#

true

#

imagine if you could cheese first strike like that

#

then meld to reset it again

clear pulsar
#

Kinda nasty

tulip falcon
#

but the description is so vague who knows

clear pulsar
#

Tho I could totally see it being like a debuff on the target ykno?

#

So cheesing on a healer to hit someone else wouldn't work

tulip falcon
#

idk normally in those types of spells it will say "chance to critical strike on the target" i think

#

whereas it just says your chance to critical to strike

#

fuck who knows

clear pulsar
#

Ok wowhead says it's a self buff

#

That's not purgeable

#

Good stuff

#

I mean I think niya is too good for boomie but as feral I think korayn will be insane

#

For sure

#

Like you get such a fast opener if you guarantee a crit on shreds

tulip falcon
#

this is true

#

and 5 secs is the right amount of time

ashen smelt
tulip falcon
#

well it takes 5 sec to proc so the stuns will basically be over if you were moving beforehand

clear pulsar
#

You only need basically 10% crit from gear + 5% from lotp and then you have 50% with korayn buff, Shred doubles in Berserk, and your opener is suddenly very fast, Rake Shred Bite Shred Bite guaranteed 5 cp bites basically.

tulip falcon
#

and most of the damage will come in at the start of it

#

ye

clear pulsar
#

Without needing Symmetry or FF

ashen smelt
#

yeah i agree

tulip falcon
#

and it's guaranteed every opener

clear pulsar
#

Yeah

#

Like a budget rogue with them crits

#

Half a master assassin

tulip falcon
#

lol yep

#

plus the first trait is quite nice

#

10% above 75% and below 35%

#

oh wait nvm its healing below 35%

#

thought it was dam too

clear pulsar
#

That would be insane lol

#

Imagine warriors

#

In pve anyway

tulip falcon
#

ye

#

execute rip

ashen smelt
#

would that be enough to swap warriors to fae tho

clear pulsar
#

Yes

#

Absolutely

jovial pine
#

wait, is it common knowledge you can proc boat twice rapidly?

clear pulsar
#

For pve I mean

#

Aftershock is already bis aoe

jovial pine
#

atleast for boomkin

ashen smelt
#

pve def, pvp idk

vapid nexus
#

nothing will outdo condemn, single target is all that matters in raid

clear pulsar
#

Give it doubled in fact since 2 eclipses

#

So you can get single boat from regular eclipse, dump 2 surges, then CA Convoke

jovial pine
#

oh shit

clear pulsar
#

Which is what people do in pve

#

Since forever

#

Wrath wrath surge surge dots CA Convoke is the single target pve opener afaik

jovial pine
#

i just figured out that you can do normal eclipse convoke into ca starsurges

clear pulsar
#

Nah CA Convoke is bis cuz you get doubled BOAT ye!?

#

So 80% crit first second

#

And between Conflux and Niya mastery proc

#

Convoke does way more damage than non-Convoke

clear pulsar
#

Tho it is a bit of overkill ofc

#

Kinda

#

It's funny as shit

jovial pine
#

damn

#

i learned something very valuable about my spec today

candid moth
#

not trying to be toxic but that is day1 knowledge of the spec you play

#

if you read at least 1 guide

ashen smelt
clear pulsar
candid moth
#

they do, yes

jovial pine
#

haha

#

day 1, riiight

#

as a casual pleb who sought advice at icy veins

#

i digress

safe wind
#

I was 1 win away from hitting my second Vault item in an arena, and there was 45 seconds left until restart

#

The enemy mage uses Alter Time and Ice Block despite 0 incoming damage just to wait for the restart so we don't win...

woven mural
#

what are the best boomkin comps for 3s

haughty compass
#

Ele hpal

foggy ravine
#

i've been playing warrior hpal boomy some and its fun

glacial current
#

So are most boomies going kyrian now? or is fae still worth it in some scenarios

foggy ravine
#

convoke nerf is barely a nerf but I play kyrian cuz its awesome

safe wind
#

I have a hard time believing night fae's not still* best

foggy ravine
#

idk literally every minute as kyrian you have a substantial go

clear pulsar
#

Night fae wasn't really this bis thing to begin with

#

But the nerf doesnt really change much at all

stone nest
#

consistent dam will always beat out a burst window that has counters

clear pulsar
#

In terms of how good or bad the covenants are

foggy ravine
#

while NF you are either A; holding convoke too much or B: praying to the gods it doesn't get kicked cuz you don't know how to use it

safe wind
#

Or C; using it well cause you're a good player?

#

Although I main 2's

stone nest
#

do you not think the people you play are good players?

foggy ravine
#

ya but any decent team will have a kick or cc ready for it

safe wind
stone nest
#

good players save their stuff for convoke

safe wind
#

Then it's a 2v2 where I don't have convoke and they don't have cds

foggy ravine
#

I hold my beam for convoke, and after its kicked I still get a go with a beam

safe wind
#

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

stone nest
#

why in a 2v2 would someone not have something for convoke

safe wind
#

People act like convoke is so easily countered

#

You just aren't good with cc

stone nest
#

terrible argument because its easier to have stuff for it in 2s

safe wind
#

It depends on the comp

foggy ravine
#

ya 2s cc the dps and its ez convoke

safe wind
#

Your entire premise is a "terrible argument" lmao

#

Just use your cc better

clear pulsar
#

Yeah this entire idea that convoke is bad cuz it's easy to stop is kinda silly idk

safe wind
#

^

clear pulsar
#

It's not this great spell some people rave about but it's sooooo usable every game bro

safe wind
#

If you think convoke is too easy to stop, YOURE the one who is too easy to stop

clear pulsar
#

It's all on you for getting it off proper

foggy ravine
#

I didn't say its bad just that kyrian is better

glacial current
#

i know convoke wont hit your rooted targets, but if you setup into a root beam healer and stun, it should all hit the stunned target right? or will it cast only heals

clear pulsar
#

It ignores CC that breaks

#

Hits into stuns just fine

glacial current
#

alright thanks

stone nest
#

at the top level it gets stopped enough to make a good percentage play kyrian

safe wind
#

Roots, incaps, etc.

candid moth
safe wind
#

They reverted the revert

clear pulsar
#

People trading cds to stop convoke doesn't make the spell bad tho

#

Like

glacial current
#

no its what they reverted to

candid moth
#

ah right

stone nest
#

no but people treat it like a press and win and its not

safe wind
#

At first it ignored, then they made it not, then they reverted it

clear pulsar
# candid moth didnt they revert that ?

It was the other way around. Always ignored cc that breaks, then they made it ignore cyclone but hit into cc that breaks, then they reverted it back to first.

candid moth
#

got confused, thanks

clear pulsar
stone nest
#

yeah rng is rng for sure

foggy ravine
#

yes convoke is strong, it just requires more setup to use it properly

stone nest
#

im not arguing its bad

safe wind
#

Like I said, it's up to the comp you're against

stone nest
#

i play it

foggy ravine
#

and personally I like kyrian mastery buff and 15% damage buff every minute

stone nest
#

but im resto and it takes a set up

safe wind
#

If you're against arms/hpal, what are they gonna do if you ursol's+beam+convoke

clear pulsar
#

Well you're playing resto

#

Wrong emote sorry

#

That was unnecessarily mean

#

This was the one

stone nest
#

all im saying is at the top level unless youre cdew people handle it well

foggy ravine
#

you are also talking 2s

#

so ofc its easier to set up

safe wind
#

^

stone nest
#

im talking in general

foggy ravine
#

ya jay I got you I was talking about adam

safe wind
#

In 3's it will be difficult to get a "press-to-win" convoke off

dreamy hornet
#

I play with priest and pala. Sometimes we play around my Convoke

safe wind
#

It's absolutely possible in 2's

candid moth
#

I was Kyrian at the start of the expansion. I hated how I had to link, get pot, send pet away every single game and also how garbage it felt in Mythic+ which I ocassionally do with friends

stone nest
#

i mean convoke is way more fun imo and for most people i think that the important thiing

#

they think they waant to climb but they really want to have fun playing pvp

safe wind
#

Yeah as long as convoke isn't dogshit, I'm staying NF

clear pulsar
#

Nah like

#

You can always get it off

#

If you're at your appropriate cr like

#

Ofc a 2k player will get danced around and not get a proper setup vs glads

#

But any proper match like people make even mistakes

#

I don't think it's a good argument

candid moth
#

if the enemy team holds all their cds in case I convoke it fine for me

clear pulsar
#

Formy is literally 3k

#

As night fae feral of all things, in melee range so easier to stop

dreamy hornet
#

Holy Word: Concentration helps a lot

candid moth
#

BoP is also nice against ww/warr

clear pulsar
#

Now sure he's a rank 1 player, but he's also playing against rank 1 players ye!? So naturally me being at duelist I'm not playing against rank 1 players, the argument that 'good players will know how to stop it' is a bit silly cuz good players will run circles around me regardless of my covenant.

dreamy hornet
#

Sometimes we run Holy Ward too

dreamy hornet
clear pulsar
#

Holy priest

candid moth
#

fkin holy priest

#

had one last week who had the rezz legendary

#

in the enemy team

#

never been so triggered

turbid jolt
#

can they use that and night fae pod

#

like, while angel can htey heal their pod

#

then come back from pod then die again and come back from lego

candid moth
#

idk, he wasnt nightfae as far I could tell

#

but he came back after dying. First he was an angel like normally and then just rezzed

turbid jolt
#

yeah kind of annoying but they're way easier to kill right

candid moth
#

you dont have that much time as most double dps combs in 2s

#

to kill them, wait 15sec for them to actually die and then kill them again

#

I'll just go on their dps in the future in case they have it but it shouldnt work in arena period

pure marsh
#

is Draught of Deep Focus really good in 2v for Rdruid ? i mostly alway hear about circle of life for dpsing as resto

clear pulsar
#

It triggers a cheat death like rogue cheat death on you

#

And then you die if the pod dies

#

So you dont have angel while pod is up

#

You get the angel only if the pod dies

turbid jolt
#

rgr

#

so only going to happen with good peels / offheals from team

safe wind
#

Healing pod does nothing anyway, it's a damage threshold. It's health bar doesn't actually matter

clear pulsar
harsh jasper
#

I think I missed the discussion on removing FF from Convoke, doesn't that seem like a buff since it may cast a FB instead?

formal girder
#

I believe so Durwyn. FF is a higher level cast, right? so chances are it'll be replaced by bites

safe heart
#

i swapped to kyrian today and im scared lol

formal girder
#

casting convoke and seeing FF go off 3 times was not fun

clear pulsar
clear pulsar
#

Convoke didn't use FF more than once lmao

junior plover
#

Chances are that removing FF will actually just double the chance to get Berserk

#

From convoke

#

We literally don't know

formal girder
#

Im fairly sure ive had feral frenzy be cast multiple times on a target

junior plover
#

4% chance for full Convoke to FF twice I think?

#

But I've never seen it

tiny oar
#

HA thatd be sick

junior plover
#

Never noticed at least

safe wind
#

I'm looking into it more rn

junior plover
#

The seed ends

#

Enemy is at low hp

#

He gets popped instantly

#

Not sure why sometimes people in seed get 0 healing tho

formal girder
#

Ive definitely offhealed pods through a lot of damage

junior plover
#

Yes, pods don't die until they drop to 0

formal girder
#

Stopped running pod myself though. Niya feels much better to run

tiny oar
#

@clear pulsar i won a match on my hpal earlier cuz i ult sac'ed a seed SavageRoar

safe wind
#

I haven't tried to heal or seen people heal seed to keep it alive in a long time, I know as an absolute fact that it was at one point a damage threshold

formal girder
#

60% mastery for 20 -30 seconds? yes please

junior plover
#

It never was

safe wind
#

I tested it with someone near beginning of xpac

junior plover
#

I've been playing seed since it was available

#

And my healer has outhealed many times

safe wind
#

I don't have any proof, it's just my eyewitness account

junior plover
#

Seed is buggy so that's probably why

#

There are times when I die with seed

#

And I just die

safe wind
#

But I KNOW I've killed a seed at close to full hp multiple times, we tested it pretty vigorously a couple weeks after xpac came out

junior plover
#

And the seed drops

#

But i won't res

#

Among other things

safe wind
#

Could have been what happened, I know it's been buggy since it came out

haughty compass
#

Donโ€™t play seed

formal girder
#

Ever had the seed bug where an arena ends and you're permanently stunned?

junior plover
#

Yes

#

Yeah seed is buggy as all fuck

#

@tiny oar pepeSpit

junior plover
#

Lost 2 games to that before I learned to check and log out

#

Had it happen 20+ times at this point

formal girder
#

logging out didnt solve it for me

junior plover
#

It didn't the 1st time for me but does now

#

Not sure

formal girder
#

I got a random person to pull me out of org as a priest then kill me in a duel on a dk

#

that was the only thing that solved it

clear pulsar
#

But yeah happens a lot

#

Just play niya

#

BIS anyway

junior plover
#

Worst case you can use the unstuck

formal girder
#

for sure. can't turn down that extra hp and mastery

#

but then it resets me to org and my easyframes reset ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

junior plover
#

Me when I dropped 30 rating by going 25-24

haughty compass
#

I see people with 2100 in rbg with a win/loss of like 100-120

#

Iโ€™m playing the wrong game

junior plover
#

I went all the way from +16 to -15 in two sessions

#

With a 50% winrate

placid mirage
#

Anyone else get offered pvp gear with no vers from vault

junior plover
#

Yeah it's a pretty kekw moment

#

I still rock my mastery crit cloak

placid mirage
#

It's a 226 crit mast cloak

safe wind
junior plover
#

Exaaactly

placid mirage
#

Nice grays

junior plover
placid mirage
#

Grats*

safe wind
#

hahaha

junior plover
placid mirage
#

I bought my wep last week and blizz didn't even troll me by offering one this week

safe wind
#

Still new to druid, that's my first vault reward. Pretty much the absolute best I could hope for, right? BiS and most expensive?

junior plover
#

Yep

safe wind
#

I was so hyped when I saw it

junior plover
#

Well aside for maybe a 2h wep

#

Because slightly more expensive

clear pulsar
#

Alright boys

safe wind
#

2h can't have vers/mast tho right?

clear pulsar
#

We got the item we wanted out of vault

#

SICK bracers

junior plover
#

No clue I'm kitty

clear pulsar
junior plover
#

But this is still goood

safe wind
#

Imagine not getting a good item from the vault

#

couldn't be me ๐Ÿ˜Ž

placid mirage
#

I got a ring which I needed but it's crit vers...sadge

clear pulsar
#

LOL yeah nice first vault brother

clear pulsar
junior plover
#

ThumbsUp no vault for me but at least I'm not American

safe wind
#

Good trade off tbh

clear pulsar
#

Cuz if you don't pve then vers mast + vers crit is bis for feral

placid mirage
#

I'm boomer I can see how u might think otherwise

junior plover
#

Lol

clear pulsar
#

LOL

#

Yeah you are a traiter

#

Cats eat chickens for breakfast

#

It is known

junior plover
#

It is actually known

placid mirage
#

Cat was too confusing for my small brain

junior plover
#

He's not lying

placid mirage
#

Boomie simple for simple player

junior plover
#

Feral Druid made top4 of ladder % representation

#

Good job bois

#

Representation being the key word

placid mirage
#

I already have a crit vers ring w/vers socket so idk

junior plover
#

Assasination rogue was 5th ThumbsUp

placid mirage
#

Maybe I will get hyperlight band this week

#

What u think guys

junior plover
#

U should get

#

A nice agility polearm

placid mirage
#

For guardian fc? Ya :)

safe wind
junior plover
placid mirage
#

Gottem

junior plover
#

It is known pterodactyl things are just chicken ancestors

#

You can't escape

placid mirage
#

Crit becomes significantly better if u run dreambinder and not boat right

junior plover
#

SuspiciousChicken sir there's no boomers here

placid mirage
#

Hello team boomer

safe heart
#

wtb kyrian yoda to ask some dumb questions to if anyone is willing

#

can dm me ๐Ÿ™‚

junior plover
#

Bind to self always

haughty compass
#

Socket haste vers belt. Wewww

junior plover
#

That's all i know

safe heart
#

thats all i know as well pretty much lol, i wanna understand exactly how to maximize this buff

foggy ravine
#

ya I tried binding to someone else

#

not worth

#

I stack all my 1m cds with the kyrian empowerment

#

so foe and badge and beam

#

pool your power up to like 90 before your 1m goes

#

you'll be a lot scarrier

placid mirage
#

Are there mastery boots?

clear pulsar
#

I am ready to rumble BOYYYe

placid mirage
#

Conq mastery boots*

safe heart
#

@foggy ravine im feral but i assume im doing the same thing kinda? ive been told to combo TF+FF+Trinket+kyrian

clear pulsar
#

It depends on covenant @placid mirage

#

I don't think Night Fae has vers mastery boots no

placid mirage
#

Wtf

#

Ur covenant determines stats?

foggy ravine
#

ya from what I know about feral you wanna stack them together too

#

TF / trink / kyrian just stack so well together

clear pulsar
placid mirage
#

That's the dumbest thing in this xpac

foggy ravine
#

cov only determines wep stats I thought

safe heart
#

im wondering if im supposed to use TF to pump energy or if i just pop them at the same time for 15%+15% for 10s

clear pulsar
#

Could be only weapon, but 2h staff for instance is the same for all

#

Haste vers

#

For all covenants

placid mirage
#

I want vers mast every slot thx

foggy ravine
#

I feel like you'd want the energy gain from TF but I am not feral main

clear pulsar
#

I definitely want some crit personally

#

Cuz I want to get to 20% base from gear

#

For korayn opener

placid mirage
#

I mean yeah I want some crit some haste

foggy ravine
#

kyrian 1H is crit/vers NF 1H is mas/vers

placid mirage
#

But for nf almost every piece is haste or crit

#

Of armor

tulip falcon
#

ye

#

i got like 2 pieces with mastery

#

and one of them is a pve piece

placid mirage
#

Sad face

#

I'm still using huntsman neck

#

For 150 mastery

clear pulsar
#

Wuuut no way bro

tulip falcon
#

not the 150 vers?

#

or 165 actually

clear pulsar
#

Wait thats actually true I think

tulip falcon
#

at 226

placid mirage
#

I've been upgrading other pieces

#

That are worse than my 213 neck

clear pulsar
#

165 vers form neck, 147 from each ring. It's such BIG FUCKING DAM bro

junior plover
#

Definitely macro trinket to Kyrian @safe heart

clear pulsar
#

11.5% vers from 3 slots

#

16% with trinket bonus

placid mirage
#

I can double upgrade ring this week with vault + conquest

#

For a total of like 50 ilvls

clear pulsar
#

Delicious upgrade

tulip falcon
#

i was so far behind on gear until the honor thing got bumped up

safe heart
clear pulsar
junior plover
#

The TF energy gain is nice wdym

clear pulsar
#

Yeah you definitely want to maximize the energy gain bro

junior plover
#

Imagine getting a 50 energy bite instead of 25

#

Ah sorry

#

Misread

#

Ye u probably wanna

#

Maim -> FF -> TF Bite

#

Kyrian before maim i suppose

#

That should put you at close to no energy lost

#

But I'm not kyrian

safe heart
#

the way i figured you play it is go in with 5cbs, pop everything, bite, FF, bite, then TF your way up to another bite

junior plover
#

Too much damage missed that way

clear pulsar
#

TF along with FF probably

junior plover
#

You want faster damage

clear pulsar
#

Like

junior plover
#

Not longer damage

clear pulsar
#

Maim TF FF Bite

tiny oar
#

main druid is 220 equipped now PogCat @clear pulsar time to reroll hpal SavageRoar

junior plover
#

Maim only costs 10 energy

clear pulsar
#

Main druid is 220 so now I go full arms warr

junior plover
#

So if you tf on FF

#

You get 0 energy from tf

clear pulsar
#

Yeah then don't sit on full energy before you go

junior plover
safe heart
#

see thats why im asking cuz it seemed like maybe a slip up to miss out on the bonus energy but 30% dmg increase is significant

junior plover
#

I don't think there's a considerable difference between TF FF and FF TF

unique cairn
#

what conduits do u use as balance druid?

unique cairn
#

in pvp?

junior plover
#

But you definitely wanna have tf up for your bites

safe heart
#

didnt wanna hijack the convo with my newb questions

junior plover
#

Point of Kyrian is to deal huge damage fast

tulip falcon
#

easy solution

#

play bloodtalons like a man

safe heart
#

so shove as much bite/dmg into that 10s window as i cna

junior plover
#

If you spread it out for too many gcds you'd just get outhealed

#

Or your cc will end

#

Yeah you wanna Maim and tf before ff or right after

safe heart
#

some ppl mentioned doing like 5cb Bite/4cb/4cb

junior plover
#

I'm assuming

#

That's symmetry

clear pulsar
#

That's wiht berserk up and symmetry yeah

safe heart
#

im playing symmertry yea

junior plover
#

Yeah if you're going on berserk

clear pulsar
#

Only with berserk up

#

Cuz you do 3 globals in a row

junior plover
#

You can do 5 4 4

safe heart
#

ahh okay they didnt say with only berserk

junior plover
#

Or 5 5 5 if you have time

clear pulsar
#

That's the point yeah!? You want to deal damage fast, spreding it over 7 globals isnt so useful

safe heart
#

im specifically talking about the technique for the "1minute go"

#

no yeah you guys are right

junior plover
#

Then you wanna do something like maim ff TF bite

#

Into more bites as you get them

safe heart
#

and press kyrian with FF

junior plover
#

Kyrian is longer right?

safe heart
#

same duration

#

10s

junior plover
#

Ah

#

Then yeah you can press it on tf or on FF

safe heart
#

it does sound pretty strong for raising your consistant damage

#

not as flashy as convoke and itll probbaly should me how much convoke carried me but maybe itll make me suck less playing this way lol

junior plover
#

I really wanna try cat eye Kyrian and just go every 30s

safe heart
#

๐Ÿ˜ป

junior plover
#

I really don't wanna spend 14h getting 2nd druid to 60

#

What do

vast vapor
#

only spend 8 hours then

tulip falcon
#

i got my 2nd druid to 60 then cba gearing it and doing torghast etc

#

too much

#

can barely find the willpower to do it on my main

junior plover
#

Oh thanks for the reminder

#

Got thorgast to do today

#

At least feral torghast is piss easy

#

And fast

placid mirage
#

I skipped 2 weeks of torghast now I can't make r4 dreambinder

#

Pepega

clear pulsar
#

If you have gear from bfa and just spam dgs with a group

tulip falcon
#

i just did the threads of fate thing and had a lot of renown by the time i hit 60

#

which saved grinding later

clear pulsar
#

Yeah you get renown from each zone's quest

#

And spamming dungeons is really good for it

#

You get to max lvl at like 75% or 80% each

#

If you get an even split of dungeons

bright tundra
#

Anyone played both NF and Kyrian for feral and prefer Kyrian at >2.4k rating (2.4-2.6)

#

?*

livid wasp
#

its ridiculous how hard it is to even get 2.1k as jungle

haughty compass
#

Just paladins man

livid wasp
#

first almost 2.2k then dropping to 2k

#

now hard to get to 2.1k

haughty compass
#

Ret / holy just so much better than everything else

loud wedge
#

is agi really important on guardian druid for rbg?

#

wondering if i should use 213 staff with int or 197 agi staff

haughty compass
#

Yea it is lol

livid wasp
#

and im not sure if I should force my hunter to go MM he just likes to play surv

loud wedge
#

i would usually advice against forcing people to change speccs

#

unless he plays bm

livid wasp
#

he played bm first lol

dawn flame
#

So will convoke no longer one shot

placid mirage
#

You guys think crit becomes a lot more valuable as a stat running dreambinder over boat?

remote zealot
#

oath of the elder druid a good all around legendary for balance/resto?

stable otter
#

i mean moon was never guaranteed anyway

sick monolith
#

I think good rng on convoke is still super important for one shots

stable otter
#

yeah

#

i mean if you get 3 good crit starsurges in a row yeah itโ€™s still a one shot

safe wind
#

You definitely don't need full moon to get a one shot, it just made it happen more often

sick monolith
#

yeah and if you play with a rogue you might only need 1 starsurge in a kidnney

stable otter
#

yeah the sap kidney convoke combo still def works

#

tbh it really doesnโ€™t change much

#

was fun af when it proced in rbgs tho

unique cairn
#

RBG do i go for "stellar drift" or twin moons"??

nova cypress
#

anything to do with extra honor, can't upgrade any gear quite yet

foggy ravine
#

your AP should be for surges on kill target

spice pilot
#

Hello what's the best convoke legendary and slot?

loud wedge
#

someone wants to pop incarn convoke from stealth in 1k mmr arenas :p

spice pilot
#

Yep just loved to 60 on Sunday

what do you guys think might be a good healer with boomking for 2v2s?

foggy ravine
#

hpal

#

Ret pal

wanton parcel
#

rdruid all day

haughty compass
#

Pretty much any of them

#

Hpal best

#

Iโ€™m 1900 pretty easy with a disc. Dark arc convoke dirty

wanton parcel
#

an rdruid who can weave cat form and heal well is a lot more complimentary than any other healer imo

tiny oar

feral rdruid fucking RIPS

Anyone know if Draught of Deep Focus works with Germination?

ruby walrus
#

Anyone know what the increased rate is for BG's this week is? And does it stack with enlistment bonuses?

north wharf
#

50% increased honor from objectives and kills

#

basically just not the bonus honor at the end

bleak vault
#

Hi, how do I prevent myself from tilting off the face of the planet in a double dps 2v2 against a team that hard trains on me without stopping and not CCing my partner but my partner is unable to kill or CC any of them

north wharf
#

I mean, you're describing a situation with a partner who is not being useful

bleak vault
#

Yes but it's more the training part

#

Getting trained makes me want to quit the game

#

always been like that and I don't know how to stop

#

Should probably not play balance druid in arenas

north wharf
#

boomies (and most casters) should expect to be trained

quick root
#

Best boomkin legendary for RBGs exclusively?

north wharf
#

BOAT

foggy ravine
#

GOAT

north wharf
#

when in doubt, make BOAT

quick root
#

BOAT Boots?

shadow dagger
#

wrong channel mb

north wharf
#

BOAT legs probably slightly better for the increased stat weight - you can get haste/vers boots

chrome panther
#

binder is fine too and works better against comps with lots of ranged interrupts.

quick root
#

im pretty torn between feet and legs...

north wharf
#

in a vacuum, make legs

#

with that said, I made feet myself because I had decent legs

lean zinc
#

so maybe you donโ€™t like playing a caster (or, alternatively, would prefer playing with a healer or in 3s)

chrome panther
#

sit bear and laugh as your ret/ww/fmage globals someone

north wharf
clear pulsar
#

I meant the nice legs

ruby walrus
#

Just pick whatever your lower ILVL is, and all things equal pick pants b/c I believe they cost more conquest

tiny oar
drifting burrow
#

is symmetry still best for feral pvp?

ruby walrus
#

Man Iโ€™m debating on grabbing the guardian legg for a backup just in case we ever need a tank, but god do I hate FCโ€™ing

north wharf
#

I've seen boomies (straight up boomies) FCing at 2200 mmr for what it's worth

unique cairn
#

@foggy ravine soul or incarn ? same solstace or fury?

foggy ravine
#

im kyrian so I play fury, but solstice synergizes well with boat, I run incarn for ctf maps and starlord for everything else

#

treants for node maps to spin flag

#

otherwise nature balance

unique cairn
#

im night fea running the dreamcatcher for those surges

ruby walrus
#

Yeah Iโ€™ve ran off FC as resto sometimes with some cheese specs, but Iโ€™m making the change to boomy to help team comp rn

foggy ravine
unique cairn
#

ahh ๐Ÿ˜„ well im NF so might be diff, but gues it works, im running RBG atm

foggy ravine
#

you have dreambinder legendary you said?

unique cairn
#

yeah

#

got both dream and boat 235

foggy ravine
#

either solstice or fury of elune works for you probably thats just preference, if you run boat solstice >

#

incarn is nice for CTF maps for the extra burst, and force of nature is nice for nodes to spin flags

#

can swap dying stars ( pvp talent ) if you have an afl warlock too

ruby walrus
#

@drifting burrow itโ€™s whatever the tigers fury one is in all pvp, except some play oath but that might be some kind of next level cheese idk about

#

For RBGโ€™s

atomic pulsar
#

boomkin pvp. rbg preffered. which wep enchant?

junior plover
ruby walrus
#

@atomic pulsar celestial for all content

sick monolith
#

does anyone else whos using convoke think that incarn isnt worth it ? for 10s extra celestrial and 10% crit it doesnt seem worth it when we can get like 12% haste every 15s

ruby walrus
#

@foggy ravine why starlord over Incarn, I swap between the two a lot and I canโ€™t get a good feel for it tbh

unique cairn
#

the extra haste is nice ๐Ÿ˜„

foggy ravine
#

fatty haste buff

unique cairn
#

12% is big ๐Ÿ˜›

foggy ravine
#

more haste -> faster clones / dot ticks / AP generation

unique cairn
#

im only at 14% atm but managed to get 25% vers

sick monolith
#

i dont get much damage in incarn anyways i get immediately cc'd / trained

safe heart
#

ppl are popping lone empowerment with their berserk goes as well right? no reason not to?

foggy ravine
#

I'd imagien so

#

with my CA goes as boomy I pop empowerment and trinket too

#

every 3m is a "big go" and every 1m is a go

safe heart
#

roger

sick monolith
#

yeah the 1min go is huge, i find with NF i'm a one trick pony

stable otter
#

how long does it take to learn feral in 2s

#

iโ€™ve only played boomie ever

stable otter
sick monolith
#

i am yeah

stable otter
#

50% extra crit chance + whatever your crit chance already is

sick monolith
#

40%

stable otter
#

yeah so 90% crit chance lol

#

wait 40?

sick monolith
#

it got nerfed a while ago

north wharf
#

40 + 40

stable otter
#

yeah ik

north wharf
#

+10

stable otter
#

your base crit is 40% iโ€™m saying?

sick monolith
#

nono from boat

stable otter
#

ya lol

sick monolith
#

my crit is 8% its a dead stat for me

stable otter
#

so yeah 40 + 8 + 10 is 58%

#

so more than half your convoke should crit

sick monolith
#

does it snapshot the crit from the beginning of the channel?

stable otter
#

i donโ€™t think so but

#

boat lasts 5 sec and convoke lasts 4 so like you get it for the entirety of the channel

#

even though it goes down every sec

#

so yeah actually less than half should crit but

#

incarn helps when boat is lower

#

like if boat is at 24% your crit is still 42%

sick monolith
#

yeah i guess it depends if you're banking on the extra push or want the consistent haste

stable otter
#

i mean if youโ€™re like kyrian take starlord

#

but itโ€™s def worth it for the burst

#

with convoke

#

itโ€™s more even in rbgs i would think

#

but when you need big single target burst incarn is better

north wharf
#

the haste from starlord helps outside of convoke - but the whole deal with convoke is that you want things to die while you convoke

stable otter
#

yeah exactly

north wharf
#

we're not talking about sustained dps - we're talking about winning team fights, whether it's a large teamfight or a 3v3 at a node

foggy ravine
#

Incarn would be 80% crit with boat ya?

#

40% for each eclipse

north wharf
#

yeah

sick monolith
#

yeah thats what i thought

north wharf
#

should be 80 to starsurge

drifting burrow
#

whos performing better in arenas rn, feral or boom?

foggy ravine
#

There are more boonies than ferals 2200+ currently

stable otter
#

in 2s i think feral prob better right

#

but def boomies in 3s

sick monolith
#

and if you like having fun boomkin rogue is a blast

north wharf
#

depends on if you have friends and what they want to play!

stable otter
#

oh right yeah facts incarn is 90% with boat

#

so

sick monolith
foggy ravine
#

Crit damage is reduced in pvp also

#

So thereโ€™s that

stable otter
#

i still think itโ€™s worse

#

starlord that is

#

the meta is popping cooldowns

#

like everyone does shit damage outside of their cooldowns

#

so anything that empowers a cd helps

proven hollow
#

Worth going resto right now?

north wharf
#

here's another thing I consider: incarn puts you right into moonkin form from another form, while you need to swap if you CA outside of form

#

so you can incarn --> convoke from stealth

#

as a cat

sick monolith
#

you cant as a moonkin

#

theres a gcd in the middle

stable otter
north wharf
#

no there isn't

#

I'm doing it right now

stable otter
#

yeah you can pop incarn from cat

north wharf
#

incarn ---> convoke without gcd, and from cat

foggy ravine
#

Heโ€™s saying without incarn with just CA

#

as in just tryna stealth convoke

north wharf
#

yeah but I'm sayign another benefit of incarn OVER CA

foggy ravine
#

Personally I prefer the haste for the 1.3/1.4s clones

north wharf
#

you're kyrian though, we were talking about convoke boomies

stable otter
#

yeah exactly

#

for kyrian starlord def better

#

but i think incarn is def the way to go for nf

foggy ravine
#

Ya even when I was NF I still preferred it tbh

stable otter
#

i mean 1.3 second clone is nice but that 10% + insta shift could be the diff between a kill or not in arena

#

i think starlord has more applications in rbgs

north wharf
#

funny - I'm talking about rbgs - I've snuck up on FCs or 1v1 at nodes just with incarn convoke

#

this is at 2100 mmr; it probably doesnt work as well at higher

spice pilot
#

for 3v3 build, convoke/boat, is it vers>haste>mastery>crit?

sick monolith
#

i think its haste = mastery

spice pilot
#

okie

stable otter
#

nah itโ€™s mastery>haste

#

haste doesnโ€™t matter during convoke

#

cause it all just casts

sick monolith
#

yeah mastery is def a good stat

north wharf
#

get enough haste so your clones don't feel like they take forever

spice pilot
#

ok

stable otter
#

yeah obvi you donโ€™t want low haste

#

but prioritize mastery for convoke strats

vagrant plume
#

hey im very new and im sorry if this is a stupid question

#

are prismatic sockets on pvp gear rare?

#

I got some in my great vault

foggy ravine
#

ye I haven't gotten any sockets on any of my gear from the vault yet

#

and cba with the maw grind for sockets

teal hinge
#

@vagrant plume if it's something you can't socket then yes I'd say it's worth

green valve
#

How does the swiftmend conduit work with the swiftmend leggo?

#

Does it still pick a hot to base off?

vagrant plume
#

@teal hinge I think it was a necklace

#

It had a prismatic socket

teal hinge
#

Maybe not so worth then since you can socket if there was a better piece

vagrant plume
#

Oh okay for sure, I already have that piece and the piece with the socket was Crit instead of Mastery

#

I didn't know there was pieces u could socket yourself

foggy ravine
#

ya helms, necks, bracers, belts and rings I believe

#

7.2k stygia per each

teal hinge
#

Looks right

vagrant plume
#

Jeeeeeez thats a lot

foggy ravine
#

ya and you gotta be exalted with venari lol

teal hinge
#

You can do it in about a month or so? Starting from scratch doing it everyday

vagrant plume
#

Yeah this necklace is vers crit

#

instead of vers mastery anyways

#

but thats a lot of time for a socket too... hmm

#

i might just keep it for a boomie set

teal hinge
#

Crit meh for boom

vagrant plume
#

Oh then it might just be useless for me

teal hinge
#

Lol

vagrant plume
#

well thanks to all of u that explained it to me

#

im really new to this game and it helped a lot

teal hinge
#

I believe crit good for kitty though

junior plover
#

Crit is decent for kitty

wary thicket
#

is night fae dead for balance?

junior plover
#

no more than it was pre nerf

#

kyrian was better and still is better

#

convoke is still fine

#

as it was

echo crescent
#

anyone missing this spell?

foggy ravine
echo crescent
#

which spec get it?

#

this is discrimination T_T

#

i don't have it as feral

no the old one was beter
