he could with re-crafts

marble hemlock
#

recrafting is the main feature of professions, few people use it properly

thorn crater
#

he doesnt ahve any hammer control points

royal lantern
#

many people dont know that i gues, the raw skill for a t5 is REALLY high, you mostly get t5 by fishing for procs

thorn crater
#

have to wait for him to raise his skill

marble hemlock
#

ive had so many people order something with 3star materials which cost 3-5x as much, when they could just use lower quality materials, recraft 2-3 times for the same result

#

save a lot of mats. the only extra cost is artisans mettle, but you typically get a lot of that anyway

thorn crater
marble hemlock
#

sure

#

but why spend

royal lantern
#

only ah mats

marble hemlock
#

15k gold on 3-star alloys

#

to slightly increase base skill

#

when you could just spend 2k instead

#

the crafter needs inspiration proc either way

#

i have 36% chance to proc inspiration on my blacksmith

thorn crater
#

but tier 2 mats lower the chance of the procc right?

#

since the overall difficulty increases

#

or am i wrong

royal lantern
#

^ people think that crafters will make t5 stuff baseline, when the reality is "t4 when maxed out, let them re-craft 2-3x for a proc and t5"

kindred oriole
#

Yeah I was thinking you upgrade the mats if you are really close and it will tilt you over to the next highest level

thorn crater
#

i mean my guy couldnt get embellish and missive to tier 4 without rank 3 mats

marble hemlock
#

but people want the 5star quality on first craft and spend 40k in mats for it, and only people who hard committed to +skill can do that. once you add missives or other stuff, they no longer have enough skill, since +skill is limited in availability on the tree.

or you can spend 5k, recraft for 2k cost 3-4times, and then get much better gear.

marble hemlock
#

get inspiration 🙂

#

id might still be cheaper

#

to basecraft the item with shit mats

royal lantern
#

or skill more lol

marble hemlock
#

and then recraft with t3

#

i.e. dagger costs 17 alloy to craft. you can buy 17 3-star alloy, which cost like 3k each, so ~45k. or you can buy 17 2star alloy, which are 300g, and then recraft with just 7 3-star alloy instead, so 21k.

thorn crater
#

i mean if u recraft an inspired rank 4 for example with tier 3 mats u still need yet another inspiration procc for rank 5

#

im understanding this correctly right?

marble hemlock
#

you need an inspiration proc either way

#

theres not enough +skill

thorn crater
#

and how do u raise inspiration

#

is it from the ahmmer control?

marble hemlock
#

ye

royal lantern
#

can probably only finish my inspiriation tree next week sucksman only 50% done

thorn crater
#

hammer control and the poyant thing?

marble hemlock
#

like, my 392 dagger i crated for myself

#

i couldnt even craft it at 4star

royal lantern
marble hemlock
#

but i got so much inspiration from a proc

#

(and obviously i was close to 4star already)

#

that i just skipped 2 quality levels

royal lantern
#

i have enough to make t4 daggers baseline

#

cus i have weaponsmith/blades maxed out and small blades at 25

#

and hammer controll 15

#

but yeha, inspiriation is wherenthe endgame is

marble hemlock
royal lantern
#

get that tree maxed fast and you can do most crafts

marble hemlock
#

as an example

#

i cant even craft it 4star

#

but with proc

#

its enough skill to be 5star

royal lantern
#

you have 100blacksmith?

marble hemlock
#

ye

#

blacksmithing is piss easy to get to 100

royal lantern
#

how, im stuck at 64 cus no orders lol

marble hemlock
#

put 30 into any specialization

#

get masters hammer craft

#

do that until 100

royal lantern
#

hmmm

#

well, next 5points into small weapons then i gues

sick edge
marble hemlock
#

crafting them is kinda expensive but ye

marble hemlock
#

but none of them were inspired

#

makes no difference tho, the point im trying to make is that you cannot reach 345 skill, not even with illustrious insight

#

you can get 90 skill from weapon spec, another 30 from hammer control, and thats it. all the other specialization talents only give skill for stuff that doesnt apply to weapons, or give other stats entirely

royal lantern
#

^

marble hemlock
#

once the base recipe cost becomes high enough, theres basically no way to get a guaranteed 5star (or 3star for materials/enchants etc.) craft. it will always be a chance based on inspiration

royal lantern
#

its ALL inspiriation procs in the end

#

people want that guranteed t5 craft that doesnt exist

sick edge
#

High quality materials also increase the skill, that’s why the crafting grade increases with better materials. Pretty sure that’s how it works. I have no idea if that means you can reach the skill rating you mentioned, just saying that that is another way to increase the skill

marble hemlock
#

and it makes everything 5x more expensive

royal lantern
#

high quality mats are not big impact

marble hemlock
#

so even if you could get a guaranteed craft at 5x the cost

#

why would you do that

royal lantern
#

like, using ah rank3 alloys over my own rank1 alloys

#

is not even 1/4

#

its like 1/8 of the bar

marble hemlock
#

when you can use much cheaper materials and just get an inspiration proc instead. just using inspiration tool gives you >20% inspiration

#

average cost is gonna be cheaper by then

royal lantern
#

inspiriation hammer with inspiriation enchant

marble hemlock
#

need to re-do mine at some point

#

but this shit is 450 recipe difficulty

thorn crater
marble hemlock
#

ye

#

its 100% skill-up all the way to 100

royal lantern
#

using a blue hammer 🙂

marble hemlock
#

might just go hammer spec next

#

just to get a 5star one eventually

royal lantern
#

gotta kill forgemaster again today sucksman

marble hemlock
#

cuz this shit expensive

#

i just bought the recipe for like 20k when it was cheap

opaque sigil
#

how much did it cost you to spam master’s hammer to 100 Seli?

royal lantern
#

they are expensive iirc

#

need obsidian alloy?

marble hemlock
#

fair amount

swift dagger
#

I read what u guys discussed earlier but im just making sure: If I want 392 dagger (5 star) with embellishment from random dude over Trade, I just get it crafted first with T2 mats and embellishment+missive and then recraft with T3 mats until they proc to 5 star?

marble hemlock
#

i crafted alloys myself, sold the 3star ones i got

#

with high inspiration that kinda makes up for it, or well, it did when it was still super expensive

swift dagger
#

what if it initially rolls 3 star, can I get to 5 star with few recrafts or is it first inspire to 4 star and then again need a proc to 5 star

marble hemlock
#

doesnt matter what quality you had before

swift dagger
#

(I kinda hate how confusing this is as a non-crafter myself...)

opaque sigil
marble hemlock
#

every recipe has a recipe difficulty. thats the one you see in the window. adding additional reagents like ilvl increase or missives increases that difficulty. the difficulty shown is what you need for max quality (3 for materials, 5 for gear)

every crafter has a base skill, that is the sum of his profession skill (so i.e. 80/100 enchanting = 80 skill), plus his tools (with rare tools thatd be 6+6+10 so 22) and whatever talents he chose on the profession tree. say someone allocated 70 knowledge into talents that gave him skill for the craft he wants to do.

he'd end up with 80+22+77 skill, so 179

you then add a certain amount of skill for the quality of the materials used. i dont think theres a solid formula (that we know off yet, but higher quality = more skill added)

#

game then looks at the final skill vs difficulty, say you have 179 skill, reagents add 50, so 229, and the recipe difficulty is 300. that would put you at 4star (since the breakpoints for a 300difficult craft would be 2star 75, 3star 150, 4star 225)

swift dagger
#

and then you would rely on a inspiration proc to make it 5 star with embellisment+missive on it

#

I think I understand that part now

marble hemlock
#

inspiration proc baseline adds 66% of what a level requires. so 66% of 75. so youd get 49skill from that. would put you at 229+49, so 278. that menas youre still 22skill short

#

its only at this point, imo, that you should consider using higher quality materials

#

because these numbers are all static

swift dagger
#

Thank you Seliathan. Did Blizz address the Embellishment thing in pins yet?

marble hemlock
#

the skill of the crafter is a constant (although a changeable one, ofc). the skill from tools is a constant. the inspiration proc based on recipe cost is a constant

#

the only variable you can fiddle with is the reagent quality, so you should change that last

#

idk anything about a bug, ill be honest

#

i can just remove an embellishment and recraft with a new one if i wanted to

swift dagger
#

One more question: is there any way I can brick my item from random crafter or is it safe to craft lets say 382 Spark dagger with Embellishment+Missive and just get it re-crafted at a later point by someone else. As long as I have corret Missive on it its not brickable?

#

recraft to try to get it to that 5 star mark.

marble hemlock
#

you cant brick an item, no

#

any optional reagent (ilvl increase, missive, embellishment) are basically "enchants" that stay with the item unless you do smth to remove it. recreafting at a later point, theyll still have those modifiers active

swift dagger
#

Thanks thats what I was most worried about. Thanks again!

marble hemlock
#

but yeah, for smth like blacksmithing, inspiration is really big. for others, like engi, its kinda trash

#

but engi also has like 6 different profession talents that all give +all skill

thorn crater
#

so what you're saying is that you can get the initial craft at rank 3 and the recraft can get to 5 with an inspiration proc

marble hemlock
#

yes

dusk harness
#

I might be stupid, but what poison are we using, deadly or amplifying poison?

marble hemlock
#

check the FAQ

royal lantern
#

if you skill amplifying

#

why would you NOT use it

marble hemlock
dusk harness
#

ty

marble hemlock
#

the FAQ have lots of useful information, recommend checking it for general information. the pins in each spec channel have more recent info on hotfixes or similar stuff, recommend checking those as well

spice spire
#

Maybe I just wanted to see nova more

dusk harness
#

yeah, I checked the pins, but couldn't find anythign there. I'll check the faq, I missed it

#

Thanks

marble hemlock
#

odds are most basic questions are covered in either of them 🙂

#

but yeah, crafting is a bit convoluted, but i love it

#

hope they do more with the system in the future

#

only thing id like more transparency on, is how material quality affects skill

distant cypress
#

Is there a build with kingsbane without exang?

marble hemlock
#

there is, its not the best, but its not much worse either

distant cypress
#

Can you show me where I can see it? I don't see it in the faq for raiding

marble hemlock
#

theres no "guide" for it because, well, no one would make a guide for smth thats numerically inferior 😄

spice spire
#

You literally roll the same build

#

And just swap ttb on the left side

#

For Exsang

marble hemlock
#

you just swap exsang for any other talent that gives DPS

#

think best choice atm is TTB, yeah. like 1% worse than exsang iirc?

#

there was a pic floating around comparing differences

distant cypress
#

Thanks a lot!

marble hemlock
#

cant find it anymore tho

spice spire
#

No worries, good luck! Yeah it’s like 1.2 again post nerf

#

Iirc, don’t hold me on that tho

distant cypress
#

1-2% won't be much of a difference to me, I got used to be inferior as night fae sin rogue (I took a break before they made all legendaries available regardless of covenant)

#

XD

#

Good times

thorn crater
#

seli how many points do you have in BS?

marble hemlock
#

you mean knowledge?

#

150

spice spire
marble hemlock
#

if the fucking expedition npc would stop scamming me for my knowledge, that'd be swell

royal lantern
thorn crater
#

i have 107 on LW and i thought its a lot

#

lmao

#

how did u get so high

#

how do u get so much knowledge

#

cause ive been digging for example

#

but i dont find more than 1 per day

night perch
#

Anyone knows which blessing i should use ?

copper hazel
#

mastery

limber lion
#

!whispyr

prisma monolithBOT
marble hemlock
#

daily/weekly stuff

#

dunno if you did all the treasures that give 3 each

#

craft a bunch of stuff for the first tiem bonus

limber lion
marble hemlock
#

unlocking recipes etc.

thorn crater
#

i think the issue might be

#

that i went full on leather spec

#

and noone crafts teh leather set

marble hemlock
#

yeah its like

thorn crater
#

so all orange first time crafts left are the life bound pieces

marble hemlock
#

if you unlcok recipes that no one wants to craft

#

its a bit awkward to gain skill

thorn crater
#

i mean i didnt expect everyone would lose their minds over the primal 3 pieces

#

only thing anyone crafts are the bracers

#

guess i need to get renown 18 to progress

#

with the profession gear

marble hemlock
#

which is fucing stupid

#

cuz like

#

why would you ever craft LW bracers instead of engi ones

#

when engi ones have tinker socket

thorn crater
#

ok so i put things down. the only life bound piece that MIGHT be worth investing into

#

is prolly gonna be the boots

#

cause the rest have either embellished shit sets

#

engineering

#

or the tier set

marble hemlock
#

yeah

thorn crater
#

so i am maxing out the boots and just left the rest to just craft

#

this is my tree

marble hemlock
#

LW in general is just... meh

#

wouldve probably been best to invest in bow kekdog

thorn crater
#

i truly thought some of thep ieces would be useful

marble hemlock
#

they might be later

#

but rn when sparks are rare

#

its gonna be meh

#

and since you cant use crafted gear and use crucible on them for set pieces

thorn crater
#

i just need the illustrious crafting recipe

#

so i had to max one piece of anything

marble hemlock
#

itll be difficult to justify stuff like chest or pants craft

#

when sparks are limited and unrecoverable

thorn crater
#

i mean, why would anyone bother crafting a piece of that high of a cost

marble hemlock
#

but yeah

thorn crater
#

even if u could transform it

marble hemlock
#

the 30/30 split definitely isnt ideal

thorn crater
#

taht would negate the purpose of crafting it in the first place if it turns into a different item

marble hemlock
#

the system really is designed around specializing in one particular thing

thorn crater
#

its not but i can craft everything

#

next is maxing inspiration

#

and then into primal

marble hemlock
#

you can craft evrything, but not as well as others

#

why would anyone come to you for anything instead of going to a specialist for each item thats craftable

thorn crater
#

cause they can get it crafted for cheaper mats and then go to a specialized one for the recraft

marble hemlock
#

but why wouldnt they just get the cheaper mat craft with that specialist already?

thorn crater
#

i mean im not out there actively seeking work tbf. its just for the guild

marble hemlock
#

aight

#

but yeah idk

#

like

thorn crater
#

the problem is that whats done is done

marble hemlock
#

yep

thorn crater
#

i watched avideo, the guy said oh wait u can get to 280 difficulty with max rank mats

royal lantern
#

there should be SOME form of bad reskilling imo

thorn crater
#

so u can unlock every piece

marble hemlock
#

thats the main issue really. either swap professions or deal with the fact that you wont be the go-to guy for high ilvl items for a while

thorn crater
#

and i was like " bet thats what ill do"

royal lantern
#

like, take 2 or 3 points out and get 1 in return

marble hemlock
#

couldve honestly just done

royal lantern
#

no full respec cus that would make it pointless

marble hemlock
#

the conduit system kekdog

#

conduit energy for profession reskills

#

say you wanna reskill, you click button, after 7days it actually happens

thorn crater
#

the worst part about this is

marble hemlock
#

so you cant just switch quickly to minmx or anything

thorn crater
#

the SAME SHIT

royal lantern
#

the "all points are final lmao sucker" feels somewhat bad if you didnt check everything 10x

thorn crater
#

happened to me with inscription

#

cause teh darkmoon decks were shit

#

i was like ok bet they are gonna buff them no way they stay like that

marble hemlock
#

yeah i mean

thorn crater
#

then rip

marble hemlock
#

my alt cant skill inscription

#

he has no items unlocked that grant skill

#

but then again, the system isnt designed around people having 100skill immediately anyway

thorn crater
#

now im stuck with having water and fire decks

#

and thay re fuckin useless

marble hemlock
#

but itd be nice to have some item to gain skill at least on a weekly basis, ya know

thorn crater
#

cause they are undertuned af

marble hemlock
#

similar to DMF

thorn crater
#

so i had to stop skilling the decks and moved to missives and treatises

marble hemlock
#

im guessing a lot of people completely fucked their profession trees. i know i did, its why i swapped to blacksmithing to start fresh on a profession, after i knew what i was doing

thorn crater
#

and now im like, ok great i am 300k down the drain cause i didnt have herb and wanted to get it up asap

royal lantern
#

the entire prof/work order system is a really good base, its like 70%done good, just need to fix the last few problems with it and its perfect imo

thorn crater
#

might as well swap inscription to blacksmithing

#

since they share renown rep with LW on the ponies

#

@marble hemlock can u link me ur tree pls?

#

i am SERIOUSLY considering throwing away a 74 inscritpion

#

cause the tree is abyssmal

#

i have points in fuckin darkmoon decks

royal lantern
#

he really did just

thorn crater
#

and just unlocked treatise

random fossil
#

I got baited by wyrmhole generator 😦 but managed to recover and have my brez wrists now

royal lantern
#

go small blades

thorn crater
#

oh did he

#

sorry

#

i mean the point split

marble hemlock
royal lantern
#

and then grabbed all insipration things in hammer control

#

its like, unlock the craft plans in the trees->slamm inspiration tree full

#

then grab all the +skill nodes for your craft

#

aka hammer controll, weapon smith, blades, small weapons

marble hemlock
winter gale
#

1 off subject question but its simple yes/no 😄

#

Is renown connected to any sort of player power?

marble hemlock
#

yes and no. you can buy some higher ilvl items atm, but theyll quickly become outdated when raid/M+ open up

royal lantern
#

just the order is somewhat important, seli went inspiriation full first, i did all +skills first, selis approach was somewhat better, but i can still make the same weapons then him

winter gale
#

So long term no

marble hemlock
#

the biggest powergain you can get from renown, is hitting maximum renown with iskaara/maruuk/expedition. you will get a primal infusion, which can be used to upgrade a crafted item to 405 ilvl

winter gale
#

Good, Im under RNWN 10 on each of them atm 😄

marble hemlock
#

yeah, i wouldnt worry too much about it

winter gale
#

Ill do em slower a bit

#

Ty and sry for coming here with it

marble hemlock
#

its very low effort atm, and will remain so for a while

#

no apologies necessary, we're here to help 🙂

marble hemlock
#

so even just for crafting tools or alloys at higher quality, inspiration is neat

#

inspiration will lose value later down the line, but atm its often the difference maker of whether you need to commit another 20 knowledge into a tree, or can start opening up other stuff

sterile torrent
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
royal lantern
#

i mean yeha, but its like

#

i have all weapo stuff for small blades maxed

#

aka 25 small, 30blades, 30weaponsmith

#

and inspiriation is allready half done

marble hemlock
#

ye

royal lantern
#

soooo, its not a big "lost" i had there

marble hemlock
#

ive just seen people go like 30/30/30 in weaponsmithing and its a waste

royal lantern
#

will finish inspiriation

#

and the finish hammer controll

marble hemlock
#

gotta be as conservative as you can be with knowledge

#

i always hold ~5 knowledge in reserve as well in case i ever need some

royal lantern
#

thats all +skill for weapons possible then

thorn crater
#

why finish off hammer control though

#

just so u use less mats?

royal lantern
#

hammer Control gives skill

thorn crater
#

oh wait

#

u mean the base ability

#

i meant the whole tree

royal lantern
#

skill=you make EVERYTHING better

thorn crater
#

for safety smithing

royal lantern
#

hammer controll is the generic "you smith all better" tree

thorn crater
#

yeye all good i just thhought that safety smithing isnt all that much

#

might as well go into specialty and alloys

#

to prep for the future

royal lantern
#

safety/resourcfull stuff is going to be for sharpening/weightstones

#

use less mats, stack multicraft, slamm those sharpeningstones out

thorn crater
#

and make profit where others cry on the cost

#

i get it

marble hemlock
#

ye theres +all skill as i like to call it

#

and a shitton of +skill for specific types

#

engi has like

#

5 nodes that give all skill

royal lantern
#

i probably go for sharpening stones OR tools when all my weapon knowledge is done

!fuu

marble hemlock
#

hammer+tools to craft 5star epic hammer imo

royal lantern
#

ye, thats what i probs gonna do

#

dunno how many specs will use stones

thorn crater
#

is that masters hammer that good?

royal lantern
#

rogue doesnt

marble hemlock
#

not only does it give a shitload of inspiration or multicraft

thorn crater
#

is it profession equipment?

#

ah i see

marble hemlock
#

but also gives 15% more skill from inspiration

royal lantern
#

master hammer from going 30into a tree is NOT a smith hammer btw, its a repair hammdr with endless uses

#

seli means the epic smith hammer

marble hemlock
royal lantern
#

^ that one

#

its a drop/buy recipee

thorn crater
#

sigh why doesnt teh fuckin leatherworking have something similar for the equipment

royal lantern
#

it 100% has

thorn crater
#

oh

#

oh

marble hemlock
#

afaik its only BS that has an epic tool atm

thorn crater
#

i thought it was teh master hammer

#

is the recipe bop?

marble hemlock
#

nah, masters hammer is just an item thatallows you to repair your weapon for free

thorn crater
#

so basically

#

the final 5 points are useless

#

no?

#

u can skip them and leave it at 25

royal lantern
#

its +5 skill for that specific weapon/armor type

#

thats it

thorn crater
#

which u can get from the general

royal lantern
#

oh, and you can use the master hammer to push 100bs at a VERY high price

thorn crater
#

so u can go for it to hammer control

royal lantern
#

yes

#

trust me, it sounds complicated

#

but if you understood it once, its actually really simple

thorn crater
#

so 10-10-25 for daggers, then 10-30 in hammer control

#

then max hammer control and then blades?

#

and at that point u can max daggers if u want to get the masters hammer to possibly get to 75 skill

#

to unlock the third tree

marble hemlock
thorn crater
#

for specialty smithing

marble hemlock
#

most important one is the 30 in blades/hafted

#

to be able to use quenching fluid

thorn crater
#

i mean 25 gives u access to illustrious insight

marble hemlock
#

fuck that

#

you dont need that

#

not as blacksmith

#

you might need it for crafting 418 wep

thorn crater
#

i mean then ure definitely not getting the masters hammer

marble hemlock
#

but if i did my math right, its not necessary

thorn crater
#

and if u wanna unlock a 3rd tree u need 75/100

marble hemlock
#

well yeah

thorn crater
#

and u cant really easily get to 75

marble hemlock
#

you unlock masters hammer in one

#

but then you dont do it in others

thorn crater
#

no for sure i meant

#

just go 10-10-25

#

not 30

#

them 30-30 in hammer control

#

and then what?

marble hemlock
#

10-10-30 > 10-30-30 > 10-30-30-other spec

drifting cloud
#

its been like 90min of 3 people talking about professions surely you could just do this in wow-gen or

marble hemlock
#

you wnat the quenching fluid unlock

thorn crater
#

ty

marble hemlock
#

between that, hammer bonus, and getting 10-30-30, you can craft 418 wep with t3 missive+embellishment without needing insight

thorn crater
sour hinge
#

Is the opener in the FAQ no longer correct if we're not taking exsang and shrouded suffocation?

marble hemlock
#

which is good, cuz insight is one-time use and its BoP, so if you craft it for someone else, you still have to use your own mettle

marble hemlock
#

cant really go wrong with ss>snd>ambush

might not be best, but were talking about single individual GCDs here in a 5min fight

Then you had the talent that does it lol

@peak bobcat what do you mean when do you think?

Iron wire made it longer

Have you chosen IW Kappa

and when I take off Iron wire. The tooltip doesn't change.

#

Either I'm bugged or garrote is bugged

trying to find out which one

slim hamlet

Garrote doesnt silence without iron wire

Is this a dragonflight change?

garrote only has a silence with IW now

it was a talent option in SL

This is the last patch that Garrote silenced

2014

But clearly you know better than me because you did it in SL

So, I let it slide

#

palmer.

#

You dont know what ur talking about .But ok

alpine latch
#

You can keep saying my name - but you're still wrong

spice spire
#

In SL you left the talent row alone so you probably had iron wire 24/7

alpine latch
#

It hasn't silenced by default in a very long time

talent in SL

alpine latch
#

Everyone here is basically telling you the same thing

Yeah - it was a talent, that came back inLegion

#

@high nacelle So it's a dragonflight change. thank you.

by 1 second

not by 3 as it says in the tooltip. the talent was worthless

royal lantern

@spice spire dog pic?

#

So when people here come at me saying Garrote didn't silence in shadowlands. Can't argue with people that clearly didn't play assa.

spice spire
#

Eh it was decent enough for packs. It’s clear PvE was here because you only noticed when you took subterfuge as you wouldn’t open with garrote otherwise. And 95% of the time in St you used MA

# alpine latch Yeah - it was a talent, that came back inLegion

This is not true. Iron Wire, or previously known as Thuggee, did not do that. In Legion it had a garrote-reset mechanic tied to it. Iron Wire like we know was introduced in BFA and even back then Iron Wire extended the Garrote silence duration and the DR. Dragonflight is the first expansion/patch where Garrote does not silence and Iron Wire is required to enable it.

Silence probably came from a higher rank and not base rank 1

#

base garrote hasn't silenced in a very long time - it must have been a higher level rank

alpine latch

Which, looking at it, it 100% was. Rank 1 didn't silence, rank 2 did

limber lion
#

You linked a picture of Wowhead that clearly states what it does

I also said specific dates which came from wowpedia

Why are you still talking about iron wire

IDK, I'm the one being tagged for simply repeating was a tooltip on a website says

If it's wrong, okay

#

guys, should i use Serrated Bone Spike when its ready, instead of mutilate? or apply just 1 time for the dot?

spice spire
#

Apply once, and then use where it makes sense. Don’t overcap on charges either

tame slate
#

Use to avoid cap yeah

spice spire
#

The second part is kind of weird so there’s a quick explanation

tropic spoke
#

so if i have 3 charges, then use it?

spice spire
#

Before sbs had rules due to soulbinds, use to extend Kevin or use during gemstone windows. Those exist no longer, so say you need to run away from the boss but don’t want to overcap on energy, charges, whatever. Toss one out, it makes sense.
Boss is about to die and you’re a bit starved/out of tea? Send it, it’s a cheap builder

#

I’m sure there are optimization rules that can be done

But fraction of a % compared to constant changes - makes 0 sense to prioritize it on the APL

hi

mighty lance

#

That’s how is handled in game

mighty lance
#

no, they stop showing as charged in the default UI once you gain a combo point after the buff fades - the charged frame just doesn't disappear until the UI updates

#

It's another bug >.>

balmy condor
#

I know, but they are still technically charged

mighty lance
#

No, they're not charged once the charge buff fades...

balmy condor
#

I’m informing you that they are

#

It’s been a bug all of shadowlands all of beta and it persisted into launch

#

Unless it got hotfixed in the last 3-4 days and was undocumented

The behavior should still work like that

mighty lance
# balmy condor The behavior should still work like that

my god, you're right, the charge just doesn't seem to expire... so... the UI is actually glitched in the other direction ...? - it needs to preserve a charge that it doesn't have the data to show? How long can you just sandbag these buffless charged combo points then?

balmy condor
#

It usually doesn’t matter cause they expire and you just press ER again and the new charges have a timer and it’s fine

#

But if you just hit er and walk away

#

Those points will be there forever

mighty lance
#

we have 7 CPs now, ER doesn't charge all of them - it only charges 4 of the middle 5. So if you have one left over from the last round, it can be relevant to know the "skipped" one from the new round of ER is still charged

slim hamlet

we only have 6cp

But anyways, if you didn't want to abuse it, having the UI track the intended behavior would be good no? And if you did want to abuse it, having the UI track its actual behavior would be a useful reminder (since it's not like you have a buff)? The current UI state where the charged combo points are sticky until you do a builder/finisher is just wrong on all counts, reflecting neither reality nor intent
