any1 have bis list for boomkin in ulduar phase?
Moar stats
Figured out that you can infinitely cast tranquility with no mana (dependent on clearcast procs but it's basically infinite unless you have really bad procs), no cooldown, and very little threat in wotlk. Healing as a resto has never been easier.

2/2 improved tranquility
8/8 Tier 1 druid set bonus
Endless mana potion (I'm an alchemist so I suppose you can use runic mana)
Omen of Clarity for clearcasting
Subtlety 3/3 for 30% more reduced threat
Tranquil Spirit 5/5 for reduced mana cost by 10%.
Nature's Focus 3/3 for 70% reduced pushback while channeling (increases proc chance when you're ...
sounds pretty bad
Probably can't be taken past heroics without understand the mechanics of the fight you go into (basically if you are bad, this won't make you better). Not worth getting rid of my raid set, but for some bosses like patchwerk, I could see this being ideal for healing through cleaves.
Although I have read about people doing this setup in naxx with minor issues (mainly on their part of surviving)
while hcs are easy even for those it sounds very bad
cause most of the dmg would be tank
like sure you can prolly do all of ulduar hc with it but thats cause its easy content
not cause its a good spec
Sure if you find a "tank" that gets hit for absurd amounts, this probably is bad lol. Then again, the tank was never viable imo. When you heal 4.5k every 1.4-1.7 seconds, the major thing of concern is immense burst which should be overcome with some sort of HoT or N/S + HT.
Personally I've never considered any wrath (since marrowgar nerf) hard. At least back then. Scripted content is typically just a matter of understanding the mechanics of what you're going into.
I'm not even certain if you can do certain bosses with this gear in Naxx25 given you can be killed nearly instantly. Just a cool theory craft I put together.
I guess to me I dont really understand playing sth like that, its kinda like tank shaman
but I guess people have fun in different ways
Hi guys, im looking for advice on feral minmaxing for parsing, anyone here that would answer a couple questions in private?
Anyone knows where can I check WotlK season 6 bis for PVP? For Resto

@noble forge hello, how do I play druid?
Growly slashy flashy bitey, rinse and repeat?
Why this druid https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/reports/7J8n9YHrP3FqNQg1/#fight=last&type=healing&source=16 wild growth hps so much highter that this druid https://classic.warcraftlogs.com/reports/7J8n9YHrP3FqNQg1/#fight=last&type=healing&source=13
Hes spell power only slightly highter but haste much highter
But haste do not affect hps right?
the hits are very relevant
also looks like the one druid cast it on the sarth tank
a few times
anyone know a good source to look up Bis for resto druid? every site I looked at tells me something different?
questionablyepic.com and icy veins guides are good and explain gear
Can you give a link to this discord? I joined first from google, apparently it is not it.
isnt that literally linked?
No, if I click it just says you cannot access this channel
That one does it, thanks!
perfect, tbh thought that was the thing you responded to but that was just a link to there
you have to be a member of a discord to accept direct links
anyone can give me a good pve raid spec for balance in wtlk?
Anyone who could help me by looking my boomkin over? I think there is room for optimizing, but I have steered myself blind looking at it ><
close the game and walk away for a little while
you need to change your environment or you won't be able to reopen the right side of your brain
Nice
classic wow wotlk wrath of the litch king feral druid phase 2 pvp arena 2v2. insane one shot burst and build huge crit. dragonflight. classic wotlk arena pvp
#worldofwarcraft #game #wow #pvp #arena #wotlk #dragonflight #wrathclassic #feral #gaming #games #funny #2v2 #arena
Does anyone know how I can make Luxthos' druid weak aura pack show the rage and energy bars at the same time regardless of stance?
I’m also looking for some insight on when it would be worth clipping rip if for instance you have some big procs, and does haste affect rip’s damage? What is a good way to track to see if rip is worth clipping based on its snapshotted power level and to see if what your current power level would be more or less
Additionally, aside from idol swapping and snake weaving, is there any sort of considerations I need to make for my melee swing timer with feral? Do I need to adjust when I use abilities in the rotation other than swapping forms wherein it’s more favourable to use them at a certain state of the swing timer?
No idea but I paid for a boost to 70 and it took me a month to get to 80
you prolly did lvl quite slow/didnt have much time 70 to 80 you can do in a day if you go insanly hardcore more realistic is like a weekish
if you dont go too ham
Any guardians here, who can help me with a few questions?
ive been known to be a bear, what can i do for ya brother ^^
any resto fanatics?
prob in resto bro
i got the t8 4set now, but i need a WA for the free starfire procc? does anyone have that?
This might work, but I have 0 idea if it's been updated for this patch
peeps - wheres the spot for classic balance theorycraft/discussion? Is there another discord?
If you google "druid classic discord" it should be the first one that pops up
it's also pinned
hi lakez!
hey
$pb 1050590743036690503 spam

is there a diff discord for wotlk classic druid?
Yeah it's in the pins in here

yo classic
Yo lake
Yo
shocking news
Lake send that, she had my phone ._.
hear me out, do you have sharp objects?
Multiple, always
Yo classic
WTFFFD
So question for y’all, what is better standard haste build (856 haste) or haste build (735 haste) for a resto Druid in classic?
yo guys
how much DPS u guys think Feral can get in Ulduar ?
i'm trying a lot but not passing 4.1~4.5
any vids for help ? 🙂
Anything by beardigo is pretty good
Are you bear weaving and snapshotting
its been a while since i played classic, but youre leaving dps on the table if youre not using the albino snake weakaura if youre bearweaving
I mean, at that point it might be time to consider going boomkin
while true - if they are doing 4k dps I dont think that full on abusing snake and bearweaving is the main thing to fix
<@&114146878353833984> ^^
Very easy to earn that just scam!
How do I outheal disc priests and holy paladins

Hello guys. I want to ask something about powershifting
Can you do it with macro with only 1 click? or you need 2 clicks in order to shift again
i have it keybind but it seems i need to reclick it.
so when im out of energy i go ` (keybind) going human form and then i need to reclick keybind to go kitty
and this way im losing way too much time
Waaait, are you on classic classic or wotlk? Because I thought you just mean for breaking root
Since power shifting for energy isn't a think in wotlk iirc
So to powershift inclassic you have to be out of the GCD, because iirc cat form triggers the GCD, it should work in one press, but only if you're not mid GCD. Also priv servers generally don't have the most accurate action batching, so YMMV
Turtle?
Hello all,
i hope this is the right channel for this topic
I am looking for help to make my druid better.
Our group is having a hard time killing algalon.
I'll send you the log and maybe you can tell me what I'm doing wrong or can do better. The DMG also looks so bad, because I always have to use rebirth and then I can't manage with my already scarce mana (innervate for the healers). Thus, I have mostly at the end of the P1 no more mana. About help I would be very grateful
Moonfire is a manahog
It's damage per mana is dumpster fire, if you're suffering with mana, that's the first thing I'd cut
Also can't check your talents atm
But especially if you give innervates away don't wanna use the cookie cutter ICC build
Ok thx for the answer. I will try it.👍🏼
can't u use lower rank mf
no
that just doesn't seem fair
You don't need to cut mf but you also don't want to have it all the time. You basically want to have it up when you're in lunar eclipse since iis and Starfire glyph make it very worth it. So cast it after solar is done as well as on pull
Thx for the hints. We kill him yesterday. 👍🏼 and thx for your post cog but it was really useless😂
Classical posting in the classic channel
Was thinking about jumping into classic. Not sure how it works or is it just wrath now/did classic get sunset?
There are wotlk which is most of the classic, and then there are seasons of mastery server which are classic only
And I think a few just pure classic
But there's 3 clients
It's fun, but don't expect balance or being able to push cutting edge as just "anything"
There are just some specs that don't work depending on the fight
Well but then the content is piss easy so if you have a group willing to bring you it's gonna be fjne
Depends, like if you have a stacked crew you can afford a crap spec or two, but you won't get some DPS checks done running a dozen off meta specs or lacking major raidbuffs
You likely would still get it unless you intentionally try to get some of the worst comp
Probably biggest issue would be algalon without hpalas
I don't even know what "versions" of classic are out and how they work or don't work together.
And how's the pop
currently you can play either wotlk or vanilla classic
I am playing wotlk - the playerbase at least on big servers is quite high I think thats even more extreme on vanilla
where you have like 2-3 servers with relevant playerbase but I believe they are fairly active (again)
What's this Hardcore Classic people are doing. That peaks my interest. Is it just a self imposed thing or have blizz implemented a version.
Self-imposed afaik
will there be mop classic?
maybe
I cant waiit id love to play it
We literally don't know if they're going to just do "classic with a twist" or continued progression
With Holly Longdale in charge they'll probably do both, because that's how she kept everquest afloat long after that IP should have died
the little rocket? its engineering
If you're doing arena without engineering you're at a massive disadvantage
im level 18 bro
Than you'll be glad to have that advice before you get very far
thats not even true
quite a few people are going BS/JC for s7
engi is way better in pve compared to pvp
Hm tru druids don't have to worry about closers
i wasnt going to take pvp advice from yuou anyway
closers, what you on about?
engi doesnt help you close
its either haste on use or a rocket on use
if you talk about nitro boots - they cant be used in the relevant ranked pvp which is arena if it could be used/if you talk about bgs its obviously by far the best
but 99% of the pvp players dont particularly care about that
hey
Guys for boomkin, is it worth going full SP gems rather than socket reckless/quick for hastecap?
Anyone?
I would try in the classic druid discord
You can find it in the pins if you don't have it
Pretty sure the answer is sp however sockets are relevant cause if you wanted the haste pure haste gema are better anyway assuming socket boni would not be the deciding factor
So for some sockets it will be worth to use sp haste or sp crit depending on your gear
@gentle jolt can you link it to me?
@noble forge I agree, but should SC be reached by gear only or with help by example reckless?
He told you where to find it
And to my ping softcaps aren't things you want to reach it's things where stuff happens
And the thing with moonkin what happens is haste gets worse after that point compared to before
Also assuming you talk about the one around 400 that's kinda something you more or less passively get
With my gear atm I got 262 with 5166 gs. Without gems
is it possible to run from human starting zone to nightelf starting zone in hardcore without dying?
Probably
Weird thing to post in a druid discord
Maybe most of it involves getting 1 shot by the megabuffed ferals?
yes
Ha..."buffed" ferals
I think going from bottom half to top 5 on most bosses might indicate that they got buffed
It got reverted already
Idk I haven't played cat on Classic all wotlk, because tanking
I thought they only got buffed and the nerf was reverted
Like I said, IDK
They had fixed flowerweaving for boomies and nerfed a talent that gave ferals (both cats and bear) a 10% damage so it gives only 5%, then buffed bears threat by like 1.5% to "compensate". Then they got a backlash from the community and reverted the nerfs but kept the buffs.
Basically it's they saying "we have no idea what we are doing"
Like either balance the game or don't
I don't mind they trying to balance the game if they knew what they were doing but they shown they can't really
That nerf was pushed into live without even going through PTR. After they reversed they posted a bluepost saying they should have put it in the PTR... 
Like. No shit! That's the whole purpose of PTR?
Big reason was the bearweaving from what I've seen which they don't like
They went all tbc without addressing the power shifting
Which part?
Pretty sure the real Degen stuff they actually patched no?
Poor one out for the boys 
That seemed like a excuse they had to fix the thousand cats yelling at the forum after ret got buffed.
Now they say they plan messing with the wars.
What was the problem with the psing?
I started playing feral like halfway through tbc, didn't notice anything wrong with it.
The fact we were wearing a level 40 item to facilitate the play style
Yeah that was a problem 
I though it was a problem with the mechanic itself because I liked powershifting over the whatever-weaving they come today. But yeah, helm was bad.
This backlash from the community was very wild to me. The changes were never intended to be buffs, just to remove the bearweaving part. They overshot the mark with the faerie fire proccing OOC thing and went to bring ferals back to where they were through the 10->5% talent change and compensating bears with bonus threat (Unless you can point me to actual data saying 1.5%, I'm going to assume the real number was just a bit higher)
Last I heard ferals are now outsimming shadowmourne wielding fury warriors in ICC
And that's dumb
There wasn't any public statements from Blizzard on how much the buff was. The best there is as far as i know are estimations made by people by brute forcing (attacking the dummy and plotting the values) on the classic discord:
Lot of conversations like.
#952320428494454806 message
And scrolling down. But from what they could conclude they changed the accumulated on bear form from 2.07 to about 2.1021 which gives around a 1.5% value in quick math. Current iterations of the sims shows that:
#952320428494454806 message
(9716/9576=1.0146)
Even if it was a bit higher, 3% lets say. It never compensate for the 5% loss from the nerf on what is somewhat considered the worst threat generating tank
At least for aoe
And I don't disagree ferals needed a nerf. Blizzard just need to make sure that they test the changes before just pulling they live.
Also that was a sneak patch on like monday? If I'm not wrong. They posted they bluepost about two hours after it already was live and people where yelling
Also my threat still feels like shit compared to other tanks in the guild anyway. Not that it matters since the 99 parse pumpers lock end up pulling threat from any tank anyway but there's a few reasons that bear tends to be the least played tank and giving us a nerf is just annoying...
Having to use a crap pvp idol from a leveling area to make swipe so auto attack damage feelsbad
Balancing feels all around bad rn.
I haven't touched much cat tho. No idea which idol they are using.
Oof
I don't like Ulduar that much. I liked tanking it a bit but some bosses tho...
Vezax is annoying
And when dpsing as boomie it just feels like an rngfest
They said they won't really rebalance stuff so we kinda knew that beforehand
Eh. They kinda are trying tho. Buffed pallys to rebalance then, accidentally buffed cats and now they wanting to change warriors.
They said they wouldnt but kinda fell due to the community outcry.
yea currently the only rebalance they did was ret
and actually UH dk nerf
Which, if you ask UH dks, made them UNVIABLE
UH nerf felt more like a bugfix than a nerf as it was just to avoid snapshot abuse. And even after it they still pump hard so 
Not saying it doesn't count as a nerf. Afterall it did decrease their DPS
I've said it before and I'll keep repeating it. I would pay to have a version of classic where they actually tried to balance specs and make clasically unviable specs competitive
But in the same way the feral changes count as a buff. They themselves said they expected a 5%-10% DPS increase on feral.
I should have put unviable in quotes
Agree
Can anyone clarify that with the feral adjustments bear-weaving is no longer a thing? Secondly that would mean to no longer stack strength gear (according to p1 guides). I can’t seem to find any solid info on this.
Haven't noticed our feral bearwave so I assume no. And as far as I'm aware it affects nothing on the build, you still stack armor pen (with runestone/toll) then ilvl/strength.
no reason to go strength if there is no bear weaving
agi would just be better at that point only reason you went strength over agi was for bear
That’s what I figured unless there’s some additional benefit to cat from strength that I’m unaware of
Last time I heard str was still simming higher since it gives more AP (2ap/str)
Overall best you cand do is just sim it
If wowhead is right it's Agi is 1AP+1/83crit and str is 2AP so it depends or not on whether you need the crit
In either case they are gonna be close so feel free to go agi or str. Whichever fits
Unless you're crit capped it sounds like it's equal, but agi also gives crit
You go agi because strength stacking on cats conflicts with RP
Buffed cats 
If only Feral was liked that in this xpac /:
That's feral in ICC
the reign of feral is only just begun
Hello together im kinda new to bear tanking but my current Guild needs a Hybrid bear/cat for some bosses. So I try to get into hybrid Tank. Now my question is, does I do need 2 full gears or therefore I will mainly be in cat form do I use TankGear, sockets and enchants as bear and just make dps in cat form? Or do I prepare my gear as cat and just switch in bear form? Thanks a lot and have a great day.
2 sets
Thank you
hey. can i link a wotlk log somewhere to get a review and some tips on alga?
@keen bane Honestly, you should probably post any logs for analysis on the Druid Classic discord. There’s specific sections for it.
i thought this was it 😮
This is the retail discord which just has a classic channel to keep some conversation isolated and provide a link to the classic discord
Link is in the pins
is there a BiS list out for feral ToC yet?
There should be some on the classic discord pins

Hi there, can anyone help me with anzu on faerlina horde? 
Yo classic enjoyers, any addon that gives simple map location of rares / chests ? RareScanner is no good for me.
I know there's a classic druid server idk if anyone here would reply or why this channel exists anymore
Change to xmog channel
they can't stop us if we just make it the transmog channel

how about xmog channel that's pics only no chat
I haven't played wow since 2018

can anyone tell me if there is a armor pen soft cap ?
yes hardcap - trinket proccs
quick question: how many targets do you use swip vs multidot/just singletarget
there's a classic druid discord u should check it out

feel free to post xmog in this chat
they need to rename this tab
why






no

Nice job
we will break towers wherever they are 

anyone have any ideas on why my faerie fire isnt procing clearcasting state?

Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask but I'm coming back to classic from Phase 1 and just got my feral to 80. Which reps do I need to focus on levelling? Or can someone point me to some resources for these basic things that are relevant in P3? 
wowhead has complete guide for gearing in p3
i think there's a classic specific discord in pins too that's more active 🙂 ❤️
Is druid playable in classic? I never played but wanna start it today
Yes
Any recommandations on which server to play on?
It’s playable but probably the worst classic class.
Bear is just press maul,
Cat is 3x the effort for 2/3 the damage
Resto is a worse priest that brings faerie fire
Play it if you want of course. Enough guilds have issues sustaining their team so you’ll still find a guild
can you force dc to insta logout?
No
you can in certain situations
Hey in classic how does the stats arcane dmg + etc work with dots like moonfire?
Spell coefficient
anyone wanna make toons and level together?
does anyone know if chance on hit works with cat auto in wotlk? I know it didn't back in classic
Guys, one question.
Has anyone sent gold to an alt character in classic HC?
And if so, how long does it take to get the gold?
@quick beacon 1 hour
ty! ^^
Hello everyone. Recently I managed to get the dual talent spec (wotlk) and I really would love to try resto druid (never been resto so far). But as I can see in icy veins and wohead there are two talent builds for resto - thicc resto and celestial focus. My question is can someone explain to me the major differences between these two and which one would be more suitable for off spec? Currently level 70.
Might have better luck asking in the classic Druid discord
I will pm
It's mainly because of haste caps. If you are coming from boomie then Celestial Focus build is probably better because you haven't been building for pure haste like you do in resto. But you might have so much haste that Thicc is a choice, depends on how much haste you have and if you are over the 735 haste cap with current gear.
it's in the pins
With lunar eclipse and solar eclipse, if wrath doesn’t proc into solar eclipse by the time lunar eclipse proc is off cooldown should I stop spamming starfire and start spamming wrath again for lunar eclipse starfire proc?
Or just strictly follow the rotation
anyone know alot about classic druids in detail?
The pinned discord does
ohh thnx
Druid classic discord in the pins has a somewhat active hardcore channel. I don’t know if there is a hardcore specific discord
Do cat abilities such as bleeds scale with int like in Retail? Or is a restocat PVP spec completely unviable?
they dont
okay, thanks, didn't think so
does anyone know if its possible to play on the same account at the same time or is this a dumb question?
you can't have to have two different accounts
depends a bit what you mean when saying account - bnet account yes wow account no
any classic feral players could assist me with stats?
Somehow looking at logs I crit like 10-20% less than other players with shred, but I have more gear than them. Same trinkets- but I have higher crit rating AND higher agility
example:
Log A: 70.6% Shred Crits
Log B: <60% Shred Crits
Log A stats(trinkets same):
Log B stats(trinkets same):
Is setup b too much crit or agility? Contains no agility gems, and no crit gems so confused as to why crits just aren't happening as often.
Well I was hoping there was some difference more so than just luck of the draw as a potential reason.
Cause that doesn't feel too good knowing the potential is all luck based lol
Coming back from a bit of a break and feeling a bit overwhelmed as to what to spend badges on :X
I'm playing resto, sitting at around 4200 gear score. I have gotten 2 pc from random H++ drops.
Any advice of what to go for first?
Yeah the rip I was trying to lose uptime and only snap with dark matter proc, so that worked swimingly well.
But I guess shred is just up to god whether it crits or not.
Sample sizes of 50 are incredibly small
Anybody playing on the hardcore server? What do you think so far?
Defias server is packed and it’s as fun as you make it. It’s just classic w one life
what is the best race in all of wotlk for druid?
you dont really have a choice
Do you like the colour blue or red more
what do you mean are you guys saying it's troll? cuz i think icy veins was saying it's tauren
Go select troll and let us know how that works out for you
You can only select tauren or night elf. The blue and red was referring to horde or alliance
wotlk has meld in combat right now
i forget i never played nelf in classic
i think its just always nelf in every situation? unless ur bear o.o
does tauren get a stam buff at all i forget
at that point just like, check what server ur playing or just play whatever faction u have already 
anyone have a talent guide for wotlk before i get tierset?
Doesn't help you
Both nelf and tauren are essentially useless for pve
not the same value as retail meld
and there isn't a 5% movement speed for stealth
so technically tauren is a little better in pvp with a bigger health pool
sure warstomp isnt bad either for pvp tho
but obviously nightelf will be way better in pvp
but that reason isnt nightelf bonus
its human bonus for your teammates
what why
you can still meld spells
which is the main power of meld
is boomkin a lot more fun to play in wrath than classic
Hey guys I just lost my lvl 10 on defies. I'd love to go again. Does anyone wanna group up? Sorry if I shouldn't post this here.
are there different looking flight forms on wrath classic or just the one
Does a tank druid use a nightmare tear at all? 🙂
When levelling in wotlk, is it worthwhile to use pounce and shred as an opener? I've just been using Rake, Claw, Rip/Bite
id prolly not use pounce/shred at all for leveling - you shoudlnt really use points in shred to begin with and stealth is really slow
with druid/feral leveling kinda have to accept it kinda sucks till you unlock mangle
I ended up leveling as moonkin but I also have double BoA mana trinkets which help a lot
Apply faerie fire, rake and then just claw and bite until mangle like Ent said. Then replace claw w mangle and done
Rake also being somewhat optional depending on kill times
how are feral tanks in classic?
i have a lvl 43 feral tank and it has been hard for me to lvl
I’d just level as cat and go bear when i do a dungeon
@rugged harbor classic wotlk? or era? i find wotlk dungeons easy to tank with feral dps gear but it's not as good as a pally tank, it's definitely slower
but levelling in general will be slower as a tank
I may have to do that
Well I’m lvl 43 but I have wotlk
Really only ever went bear while questing if I was tanking an elite mob or if I pulled 3-4 mobs
Other than that it’s cat

Imo cat level pretty garbage till at least mid 40s
When you unlock infinite mana
As feral I mostly stayed bear before that
Maul Glyph goes hard
So recommend going cat unless I need to tank an elite, should I keep my talents as feral tank or dps
I think there are several talent set ups that make you like a hybrid between both tank and dps /heal
wrong channel
For leveling it's The same talents
if i want to play a druid with my friends in hardcore..is there an easy way for me to play with them?
or will I have to wait until like 20+?
Do you mean specifically about getting to the same continent as night elf?
You can buy a portal (or hope kind people exist) and there are low-risk guides for running to Ironforge.
whats the best classic (not hc) server to play on atm? are any populated?
You can look on ironforge.pro or Warcraft taverns. They are pretty accurate.
For eu idk but for NA the popular WOTLK servers are Pagle, Benediction, Faerlina and I think Mankrik and Grobbulous. The first two being primarily alliance and the other two horde. Grobb is mixed
Thank you 🙂

Am I correct in my conclusion that this effectively does not proc at lvl 80?
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=19288/darkmoon-card-blue-dragon#comments
dunno but it also looks extremly bad
It was so good that in retail they had the patch it so it didn't work above lvl 69 (pre level squish). I just forget when they did that and if that's the case on WotLK classic
in the link you posted
people did napkin math
which assumed like best possible situation for that trinket and its dogshit
for napkin math at least to me
this seems to check out

Regardless, I'm not trying to determine if it is "good" or "dog shit". I'm just trying to determine if it was hotfixed to not proc.
unlikely
because in (again the link you posted)
people from wrath talk about it
and take the 2% into account
Yes, that was my conclusion, but in testing I'm not seeing it proc. Plus, as you said, that's napkin math. Napkin math doesn't account for blizz making it not proc
do you have logs?
like in real gameplay
id assume it proccs on average about once every ~ 2 minutes
maybe every 90s if you cast a lot
eh prolly 90s is more likely
and if it supposedly has no icd it can overwrite itself which makes it even worse
well with a haste capped druid spamming rejuvs, that's 1 spell/ sec. At a 2% proc change, you should see a proc after about 50 casts on average. I've probably hit around 200 casts, and it never procced.
No logs, just spamming heals on myself for testing purposes.
haste cap outside group?
whats that like 1.2k haste or sth
its a stupid amount at least
Haste capped for 1 sec gcd
with talents it's only 735
with talents and raidbuffs
not only talents
you are missing 8%
but sure you should average one procc every minute of straight casting
okay, this is very draining. Regardless, about 200 casts with no proc...
yes sure but without any proof of that happening
no one will believe that claim
people are historically very bad at estimating casts/checking for proccs etc
hence why I am asking if others found similar results...
perhaps, but I still asked.
and I answered - I did just read a bit in the classic druid about the trinket which originally was somewhat recommended in p1 - but very fast they went away from it
and have even an emote with the icon called dogshit
but it sounds like it proccs jus as expected
Thanks. Perhaps I just have back luck.
What is "classic druid"? Is this a website?
Discord in the pins of this channel. Dedicated discord to classic
So I’m trying to join it, but it’s asking for my password. Where do I register an account for that server? Surely it’s not my discord password the are asking for, right?
I didn’t see an open channel for me to ask in that server
It shouldn’t ask for anything as far as I recall. Have a screenshot?
I can join the server and browse, but I can’t talk until 2fa via text (which I did) followed up with this:
Can’t imagine why a user run discord server would need my discord wide password. So I must be missing something. How would they even be able to verify it is valid?
Is it asking you to confirm password to add 2FA to the account? I’ll check if a mod there has seen this before
I don’t think so, the 2fa seemed like a one off thing just to authenticate I wasn’t a bot (if the captcha wasn’t enough I guess lol).
Thank you for looking into it. I wasn’t sure where else to ask.
Taladril = server owner
Ahh, so I just have to add 2fa to my discord account. I been meaning to do that anyway. Thank you for the assistance, will set it up once I get home.
No problem. Egg is a good egg and wouldn’t leave you astray. He is a mod, feral TC since classic, and writes a lot of the feral and tank guides for Wowhead.
Anyone know if Black Duskwood Staff is good for Feral while leveling?
should just grab a viscious hammer instead
are you talking wotlk or vanilla
Vanilla
in that case essentially everything is better
the dps does nothing and the procc doesnt procc
so any item with 1 stat in anything is better
It’s not even a mace so you can’t counterweight it either
Anyone know when we switch out T9? After get 2set or 4set? (resto btw)
What do you mean by counterweight it? Thanks
Best enchant for bear. Still ok for cat. Super cheap
It basically makes all staves but Atiesh bad
Hey bois - Can anyone share their ICC Boomkin specc?
you will have better luck asking on the classic druid discord (check the pins)
@noble forge have you been active in wotlk at all?
I need some help and i cba joining the classic druid discord
yes
sec
do I save for Archon Glaive with scourge stones or buy the Thorim rune? for a major upgrade rn
wait there are classic sims?
yeah its the pvp wep
deadly
Yeah i started gearing yesterday
there is a better one from ulduar 10
archon was p3 bis
id get mjollnir but also prolly doesnt matter much what you buy first
you google feral wotlk sim
and you get prolly to a website looking right out of the 90s
but its likely better then complete guesswork
yeah DV is there
btw if you also wanna gear with gamma dungeons
highly recommend to go bear
and just tank them
insta qs
aggro felt very bad in reg Hs
Hey wrath folks just heard maybe nerf to feral Druid’s today? Any cats feeling it? Haven’t seen any notes or anything
Oh shit I'm feeling it
o/o
I tried doing a random dungeon to queue up for and level. I left within the first 10 minutes 

yeah they are kinda bad in the lower ones
the gamma ones are alot better
also true at max lvl
If it’s more healing I’d be fine
@noble forge can u cheese gammas with dodge gear and the thorns power?
define cheese
like do absurds amount of dmg with thorns
is it possible to get a near 100% dodge chance
ok im learning that the Utgarde gammas blow dick
if i get frostbite and im rooted its gg
convinced a guild to trial my rat druid 
Do they know what they got into
i did okay for my gs i didnt play like a god
but im not gonna be butthurt if they dont want me either im vibing
What do you guys play when you hit 60? HotW in raids or full resto? I wanna try tanking in raids but i hear that the only spot for druid is mainly OT
might have better luck by joining the classic discord. link in pins
Does anyone have the correct profiles for Ratingbuster for Feral-DPS and Feral-Tank?
/cast !Dire Bear Form
Does anyone have a macro to put the water shape, travel and flight shape in one button?
Hi I'm feral returning since p2 so all ulduar 4800gs would trinkets be best thing to spend scourgestone/frost emblems on?
Might get a faster response in the Druid classic discord. Link is in the pins 
mjollnir + deaths choice
oh wait you asked
frost emblems not worth imo
just get 4p early
and scourgestones depends on what gear you have dunno cant really say
one run of wailing caverns on hardcore = 4p fang set

is it important to keep rake uptime close to 100%?
😩
why johnny
why must we suffer
keep all bleeds up
i was looking at some logs, and noticed people dont keep rake up, thats why i asked, maybe it wasnt worth or something, kekw
some things would help to know: what logs you are talking about
and what game you are talking about
wotlk, top logs from warcraftlogs
I looked at marrowgar log for example
basically 100% uptime
as in think log said 80% uptime but you cant have 100% boss uptime to begin with
interesting top log saurfang doesnt rake at all but they dont have t10 4p yet
another question, ive noticed too that some people are tf and berserk after
i know we cant do the opposite, it works this ways?
this way*
yo dumb question, on icy veins it says strength is best main stat, is this right? it seems odd? should i be using strength jewelry?
no tbc moonkin wants spelldamage
how are you guys liking HC?
Hello follow cat's, I have a question to which I can't find an answere.
Is there a macro that let's u use shred and faerie fire as soon as it is off CD?
no
@noble forge do you know why my lvl 30 warlock has 100% mount speed?
I got it at either 29-31 but noticed it today after reset
its 40
thats why im confused LOL i also didnt pay for it
its confirmed cuz its the same speed as my thorns buff druid following me
weird
Something to do w this new phase?
Nah they changed riding
It's now learned automatically and at lower levels I think
Oh wait this is classic
Disregard me lmao

WOTLK plater combo points broken at the moment? Anyone else experiencing this?
anyone know if the resto t10 4 piece applies a normal rejuv or a different spellid?
any suggestions on the best specs for druids atm.
(mostly for leveling to start, but then dungeons)
? This is classic channel
woops.

Feral-DD Question: The ability "cower" is it actively used or is it an ability that is never used in wotlk?
you arent using it
resto for healing, feral (bear) for tanking, balance for ranged dps, feral (cat) for melee dps
is it a good place to ask, was feral good in cata?
@noble forge
no idea but also would be last phase anyway
honestly Cata doesnt look that fun ngl
I have a question regarding the addon GSE: Is it possible to write a macro with it that it should show me Shred when Clearcasting is active and otherwise Mangle (Cat) should be displayed to me?
Bro I did one H dungeon and left mid way
Classic players are so bad
Yeah they are pretty trash
you could do that with a weakaura
no idea if that addon could do that
assuming you only mean display
however
why on earth would you want that to begin with
you dont press mangle just cause you dont have clearcasting
i want use clearcasting for shred but the most time i click other buttons and clearcasting is procing in this time
yes but you usually still shred even without clearcasting
the difference is you dont rake with clearcasting
mangle is always at most once every minute (assuming you dont have a bear or an arms war)
but shred cost so much energy :S
what server you on bro
firemaw and gehennas
have you considered being cool?
I am cool enough
oh you play on EU?
This have probably been answered previously as well. But could someone provide me some details as to the haste caps for resto druids in WOTLK without buffs? I know that with Celestial Focus, Wrath of Air Totem and aither Imp Moonkin Form or Swift retribution I should have 735 rating, while w/o the Celestial it should be 856. But how much haste rating do I need as base (if I expect that the buffs will be added in raid). If I calculate it correctly (856-735 = 121) / 3 = 40,3. which means that each percentage should be 40,3 and w/o celestial focus I can have 616 haste rating if buffs are applied in raid (6% = (40,3*6)) + 616 =~ 857
Looking at Season of Discovery and thinking of rolling this build as a combat healer for the initial level 25 cap, which will allow questing and dpsing when needed, and healing dungeons fine too
https://www.wowhead.com/classic/talent-calc/druid/5--5050001_050f70ja0q
Thoughts?
Im somewhat confused if you expect to have the buffs it's 735
If you don't it gets a bit more complicated pretty sure the buffs are all multiplicatively
@noble forge so yeah if I understand it correctly. I need 735 haste rating if I get those buffs, and 856 (without the celestial focus).
That sounds about right yea
Or well "need" being a bit strong of a word it's more or less the cap
But I don't really understand how you calculated a lower number without the buffs
Hey got a question about power shifting and on use items... I am currently using the this macro to push a little more DPS... Is there any other on use items you all would recommend using other than exploding sheep?
#showtooltip
/cancelform [noform:3]
/cast [form:3] Cat Form
/use Explosive Sheep
/cast [noform:3] !Cat Form
hello, how do you play druid in hardcore classic 10-20? i see people advise on improved wrath 5 , nature's grasp and natural weapons. Does this mean you hit mobs with wrath 2-3 times then bonk them with autoattacks? Is shifting into bear for regular mobs a waste of mana?
I just always did bear until I got cat form
the wowhead guides said to spec balance (maybe even until omen of clarity) until 20's then respec feral. I am not really a fan of faster wraths because you oom very fast, you don't benefit much from casting an extra wrath. And natural weapons aren't that great at low levels.
natural weapons are literally as good as any level
they arent worse at low levels
pretty sure the reason its recommended is for natural weapons only - maybe omen and feral has nothing useful at all
the first decent talent in feral is the cat form movementspeed one
Hey looking at this Season of Discovery stuff and I am trying to figure out it’s mangle working like it normally does and just replacing claw? Or are they making it a cooldown strike?
Feral talents are absolute dog shit until late. Natural Weapons and omen is the correct play.
Doesn’t replace claw outside you should never push claw once you have it
I believe bear is cooldown
can you send gold cross faction in classic?
Don’t think so
ty
whats a good heirloom weapon enchant, if im lvling from 1 ? is fiery still good or ?
wotlk that is
thanks
From wowtbc.gg for instance, it says
Haste Cap 735 Rating with Celestial Focus, Wrath of Air Totem, and Improved Moonkin Form or Swift Retribution
856 Rating with Wrath of Air Totem, and Improved Moonkin Form or Swift Retribution
I think I read it a bit wrong :D I read it as "when you these buffs your haste rating should be this". so I think I am in the clear now. Thank you :)
it says your maxmimum amount of haste should be this
yes
mmm I see! At what point is it worth dropping points in celestial focus? I think I have around 800 in haste rating right now
no idea my guess is if you cant drop haste
unless im mistaken there arent very useful talents instead they are more minor
Hmm so it might be worth to gem more haste to reach 835 instaed of having like 10 extra sp per gem
doubt it
yeah the difference would be either to heal a bit more on the hots I can squeeze in compared to the amount of healed per tick, might be the same
no the difference would be the talents you swap
I like the duck
not quite that easy
but yes
it increases the damage of your spells
8 is kinda crazy tho
for like lv 12 right?
sure its quite a bit
sick
no
@noble forge do you know much of wotlk lock?
some stuff
you can only use one dot
yeah i mean if i recast it and it didnt pop
ok cool i've been retail seeding out of habit and didnt know if it stacked with unpopped seeds
reading the spell explains the spell
it doesnt say if it stacks 
just swap target

i've been spreading dots between seeds
but i get in the habit of big packs just seeding 1 target
unlikely to be worth
hm tyty
but ofc depends on target amount
Boywifexo will become a big blaster eventually even tho i only wanna BG on this toon
yeah
also you affli or demo
not sure at what point you start seeding as affli
as demo after 3 target with same prio you cast nothing but seed
think affli its later
im aff
yea not totally sure for affli esp during execute and shit
but also in ICC doesnt really matter most bosses are mostly ST
I just wanna hit 80 so i can vibe in bgs
b
hi


Im also quacking and shivering

if I place down a target dummy then a mob walks over it, does it get aggro
It’s a pulsing aoe taunt.
@mental crystal @noble forge new level just dropped
HUGE DINGER
lol ''man'' XD I'm a girl XD all good tho
certified XD moment
what teh fuck
@noble forge how comparable is pvp gear in wotlk? like can i compete in full pvp gear as opposed to pve gear?
you lose loads of stats to resilience which is a dead stat in pve
yeah i can see that part but if i just want to casually do pve stuff can i compete in pvp gear
no
"casually compete"?
what do you want to do
ngl you are mostly confusing
okay mr anti
not tank dps
do you have a group which carries you?
like I have no idea what context you talk about anyway
"not tank dps"
in which content
dungeons
....
or old raids
old raids outside togc isnt really a thing outside weekly quest
just do gamma dungeons for gear
and no for dungeons you can do pvp gear okayish
maybe some cheap boes
doesnt really matter
can also just go bear
and tonk
for fast invites
im playing lock
unluck
bribe a tonk
and get fast invites
cause to catch up
you do wanna do
a lot of dungeons
boywife on the rise
yea get your ilvl up enough to queue gammas
and then you prolly wanna farm like ~150 scourgestones or sth in that area
before you can enter ICC
what
and dps trinkets
you cant get offpieces
if you dont raid
you can get someokayish trinkets from gamma at least one - flare
but not nearly as good as dfo/phylactery
you want to be big dmger
well
semi okay dmger
trag
why?
you dont do any content
you wont get great gear
seems not really tragic to me
means i have to socialize
Not really

Will balance druids become viable in SoD?
Another level dropped 

Might even make it to 25 before SoD

hey guys. any bis lists for resto druids SOD yet?
Any druid guides for wotlk (not icy veins or wowhead)
try the druid classic discord - but im interested why dont you want either icy veins or wowhead? (Im aware at least one of them is very outdated forgot which one tho)
are the stats of items even released for SoD?
Not sure tbh. Was trying to be preemptive in my planning. 1-25 should be easy to get
No.
Pre-BiS won’t be worth worrying about. Run some SFK and then clear BFD naked anyway
dont think there is any point planning sth like that
Level 9 waiting room 
When speccing into feral tank leveling, does dps vs tank stats on gear matter? Not sure what one to go with
They’re fine, just looking for a third opinion for rotation. Im like 2k (20%) under my sims and not sure how to improve.
but what does another option do?
if they arent wrong
Believe lvl 10 before sod
Literally 0 chance
If no level 9 by December 1 then it’s joever

so for season of discovery classic, resto druids cannot ressurect out of combat but they can brez?
^ i dont remember if resto druids even have a regular ressurect ability in classic
They do not and there is currently no sign of them getting one. First brez rank is lvl20
I want to go all in as resto druid for season of discovery. Whats a good levelling build?
Probably just go balance and hope wrath rune is an early and easy to get one
Runes get unlocked at 25 afaik.
Really? Because I swear I heard them say in the announcement something about getting a rune or two in the first few levels
From just a regular quest
I see it does say on wowhead it starts at 25
has anyone made a mock gear set for rdruid phase 1 sod?
do i need an app for that? how do i build one
We have no clue what drops in the raid yet. all u can do is PRE-bis assuming the loot is the same as it has been. Wich we dont really know if it is. Esp considering they said "bis" gear is from pvp event in ashenvale.
yeah i meant pre bis
I dont think anyone has taken the time to mock one up yet
Every class has a lvl2 rune quest to introduce the concept. We don’t know what the Druid one is, but it’s probably wrath of starfire with sunfire being a distant 3rd
I havent seen this info 🙂
Ty for info, could u link it?
Pre-BiS for a lvl25 raid is a big waste of time. Just go clear some SFK
Not sure on the source. The two I’ve seen referenced a lot is paladins getting Crusader strike and warriors victory rush. Finding SoD info is a pain right now with all the clickbait
Seems like it was shown at blizzcon at some point so it’s probably just somewhere in the mess of a VoD
While likely true we don't know the tuning
But yea for classic content you won't need pre raid bis in all likelihood
True, but I can confidently say that the casual game for casuals will indeed be accessible to casuals.
you guys dont think 10 man bfd will be difficult?
I think its cleared within 30 hours 😛
dont really think its gonna be a "progress" raid for most players
I hope. But dont think so 😄
i did see that they mentioned phase 2 will come "shortly after"
i dont think it will be like a nax to ulduar type of wait
within 6 months i hope
true
its not a big time investment to get to 25
They want data for tuning etc. Id say phase 1 withing 4-6 months
depending on how they wanna move forward. new runes?
It’s gonna be a few months. Especially with Cata around the corner
i really think they will make SM a raid & BRD
SM is confirmed level 40 raid?
Prob not BRD at level 50 tho. ZF? Sunken?
BRD is so massive i always thought it was supposed to be a raid that they abandoned?
Yeah, feel like BRD was a fail from their side. Its so big
Not fail as in bad. Fail as in they didnt finnish or smthg
around the corner? 😛 summer 2024 is not around a corner 😄
New retail is 2024 also.
I don't think so
If the raid is hard, SoD dies in the first two weeks
no its level 25
They "revealed" the next few raids at the end of blizzcon announcement
I think it was gnomeregan, SM and Karazhan crypts
I think they said afterwards it is 40, 50 and 60 level cap though I'm very unsure if I'm remembering that right
