In the Compendium you are talking about Jundies Plater Profile "since it changes the color of a mobs nameplate based on what DoT effects are currently active". I just tested the profile in some m+ and for me it didn't change the nameplates accordingly. Is there anything you have to set up in plater for that feature to work?
@@besmen42 There should be a script or mod for it as far as I know? I don't use it personally, I just know it's used and requested a lot. The Wago profile for it should have a discord link at the top, you could maybe go there and ask about it?
@@besmen42 I know there is some mod or script that makes it work, but I'm unsure on the details of it. There is a Discord link on the top of the Wago profile linked there, you could go and ask there?

I would LOVE an in depth guide for each of the character classes like this. I know Boomkin is your jam, but you explain it so thoroughly that it would be super beneficial for the rest of the classes and specs.
Thank you! This is my first season playing Moonkin and all the guides that I have looked at, never told me “Why?” We did things a certain way. This is a great guide!
Druid is a very versatile class which is why I rock two Druid alts. I tend to wing it and that was good enough for me get the cat forms from the Tower during Legion. Though I'm sure that reading up on things would make me a better druid. My two problems are that I'm both lazy and suffer from chronic fatigue which is a bad combo.
Most guides say on 2 targets we should be in solar eclipse, casting wrath. Increased to 3 targets when CA is up. This one however says anything above 1 is lunar window.
If we really wanna minmax we cast regrowth between each pull for the insta starfire cast with 100% increased dmg i guess ? Also use the insta regrowth castes. ( For the treant hero talent)
From a new boomkin player perspective, the rotation segment and opener segment was really confusing, instead of saying all the names of the spells, could we get something more visual, like a picture of spells of the opener? Like you did in the beginning fo the video? I had no idea what orbital strike was and no idea what star lord was, I learned it, but would be nice if there were pictures of the spells or talents when saying the names for new people of the class/spec. Everything else like stat and consumables was prefect. And I did learn how to play boomkin because of the video thanks
Thanks for the great video, how are we supposed to live lol? I feel like everything in 11's is a one shot. Spending so much time in bear form and casting regrowth.
I'm a bit confused about Starfall: It doesn't stack at all? If I cast Startfall one after the other - It will do the same amount of damage as casting 1 Starfall at a time?
imagine the starfall buff would not stacc than every starfall you press gives you a new 8 second AOE seperatly. It is just seen as one buff with staccs to reduce the amount of buffs you see
@@Kngkat you are spamming the button as much as possible in AOE situations. Every starfall does damage individually. if you have 3 starfalls running at once they do 3x the damage of 1 starfall.
Does distance matter when casting convoke? I vaguely remember that casting it from a distance could cast heals, and up close does the bleeds and thrashes. Idk how true that is tho.
That Evoker was casting in combat as their human form. Is that something they can just do now or were they using some sort of transformation toy / potion?
Do we want to get 3 starsurges out ideally at the start of an ecliples or before for the 3 stacks of starlord? or does it not matter, we just need to refresh the 3 stacks whenever it falls off?
When going through mobs, keeping finishers ready - liking opening with the 'full' moon, mushroom, starsurge, moonfire,(they can hit at almost the same time, and apply that slow). And if they have health maybe starsurge (if you got it), sunfire, etc. It's great having the slows built in. Like a 'bring me my loot and die build'. And if it's a group do the two wraths and then starfire, but switch targets to the strongest in health after one or two, wears them down more evenly.
Out of curiosity, how does Boomkins ST and AoE compare to Elemental? I PvE main Ele, I just started doing the same for Boomy after only PvPing on it (I’m in haste/verse gear which kinda sucks but guess it’s better than nothing)
Just spam it, there is no any complicated stuff behind it. If we consider starfall alone, no minmaxing our talent starlord, u can just press it as soon as u have AP for it. Stacking or not, as long as u get full value of it(mobs won't die), u can use it however u want, no dmg loss.
Okay, I may be stupid, but I want to clarify that starfall casts do not stack? I have seen a lot of vague/confusing things trying to search online about this to make sure that I should not spam starfall in AOE content. It seems like having multiple instances of starfall up would do more damage and I've looked at a few top dps logs that show starfall cast back to back. So how does the overlap actually work?
Stacking implies that they interact with eachother, but they don’t. You can have as many starfalls up as you want, they are all their individual instances of damage not connected to one another So you want to cast as many as you can on AoE ofc, it’s basically the same as starsurge Its just the word “stacking” that is not quite correct, you can have multiple starfalls up simultaneously though
When you use the word "stacking", it most of the time implies that you can refresh it with another cast. Atm it doesnt work like that. Your starfall wont do 2x damage when you use 2 starfalls. You will have 2 seperate starfalls doing 1x damage. Same thing damage-wise but changing how the timers would work.
@@Naguura Thanks for the clarification and response! I think I got confused because it SEEMED like you were implying that having more up was not beneficial in the faq section of the video. Have a great day!
This helped a lot to understand the class/spec. But you mentioned there was an exception to using sunfire as single target but you never got back to that :) I'm guessing by now everything changes again with the new patch, so really looking forward to your updated guide! :D
keeper of the grove is best for single target/AOE rn and will still be after patch these talents are also not "top performing" talents from what i instantly seen looking at them.
Sim your talents is must. Lunar is bad for m+. Also for the trinkets this one from mists (red one) is better than arakara. For food the best for m+ is hearty Beledars Bounty.
Great video but not I can understand why so few people play balance druid. So many macros etc just to make the class work better because its so poorly designed. When we finally get a rework its going to be a great day.
Now i remember why i rerolled off my beloved boomy at the end of bfa, you need a phd to play it. Still seems like a very awkward to play spec. Put dots, cancel this, precast this, do that, put more dots, then press this and that if this and do damage pack is already deadge. Just play melee boys, press cooldown, mash buttons do damage, DONE.
I think Boomie is the easiest caster class to play. The only thing that sucks is you do almost no damage during movement phases, while mages can still do full rotation.
@@anthonyzarfati3579 why do you have to enter an eclipse state? Why do you have to cancel some buff before you pull? Why do you have to cancel starlord?
It’s probably because I’m 50 years old but this is way too fast for me. I play boomkin but I don’t understand 40% of what’s being said because it’s so fast even when I rewind! 🤣
you start by explaining the spec in the most basic way, and immediately jump to nuances of a single target opener by namedropping hero talent buffs and other CDs. if the goal is to start from basics and build up to a full understanding of moonkin, this jump is definitely a miss. if you are aiming at people who already know what convoke, on-hit buff consumption etc is, then the first part of the guide, especially as you explain what a filler is, isn't needed at all
LoL...dont worry balance druid is just bad at the moment. Until they implement personal M+ affix so everyone do their own affix so your dps dont suffer doing it all alone.
Me and other people put a lot of effort into writing the Compendium guide for this season, really appreciate you shouting it out. Love the video! 👑

I'm maining Boomkin for this expansion so need all of the help I can get. Thank you! and thanks to Dreamsgrove for the Balance Druid Compendium
Let me cum inside
I've always had problems playing Balance/Feral well. Thank you for this guide!
Thank you! Ive been waiting 3 weeks for this ❤️
Thank you! This is my first season playing Moonkin and all the guides that I have looked at, never told me “Why?” We did things a certain way. This is a great guide!
Thank you Naguura, your guides are a must for every boomkin, always clear and precise 😊👍🏻
easiest sub in my life, great content and just what i was looking for with my search!
Thank you! I just started gearing my boomkin. This helps a lot!
thanks for this I just started with moonkin. Its a blast
Wow, super in-depth guide, ty very much.
Naguura is happiest when she's talking about Moonkins, One might even say she lights up like the moon
cringe
@@ghozter1😂😂right, I read that and my it made me cringe hard
Awkward comment..
very underrated tutorial . keep up the work !!!
Thank you for the guide, it was awesome and clear
thank you for explaining why every druid i see is prepulling the fucking boss. thought i was losing my mind or something

From all the Frkn Chkn out there, ty for this🙏🙌
Great video as always Have a nice weekend.
Wow this Guide is good!! Not new wow Player but new boomie Player. You should do more Class Guides
Very helpful, thank you!!
finally .... I was waiting for that ,,, cheers
Great guide!
Hi, thanks for the guide! Where can I find your UI?
If we really wanna minmax we cast regrowth between each pull for the insta starfire cast with 100% increased dmg i guess ? Also use the insta regrowth castes. ( For the treant hero talent)
thank you very much for the guide :)
You give the best reviews, so detailed. Do you have one for tank Druid?
Hi Nagurra! Thanks for the great video. Could I ask what you use for your plater profile? Thanks!

@@Kngkat I still have no idea, I assume it stacks twice only but I'm not sure.
@@ksilebo ty
i glad for this video, but am i the only one who does bigger damage in M+ with trees?
Does distance matter when casting convoke? I vaguely remember that casting it from a distance could cast heals, and up close does the bleeds and thrashes. Idk how true that is tho.
Thanks for the guide 😊 never played moonkin in TWW but i try it now.
Can i get youre nameplates? They look so clean
Keeper is better for M+ also
nice vid.
Nice Guie, I'm now doing more damage with my druid
u share WEAKAURA, thanks
What does this mean "EC" and "KotG"?
is this trinket any good Imperfect Ascendancy Serum it SIMs pretty good
Tried to turn my bear druid into a balance druid. Lol I did negative damage. Prob just going to lvl up a new character for balance
what are we supposed to be using for M+ Keeper of the Grove or Elune's Chosen
Would you recommend one of the M+ builds for Delves?
What's the best way to use Spymasters?
That Evoker was casting in combat as their human form.
Is that something they can just do now or were they using some sort of transformation toy / potion?
Anyone know the Weakaura in the middle of the screen ?
Do we want to get 3 starsurges out ideally at the start of an ecliples or before for the 3 stacks of starlord? or does it not matter, we just need to refresh the 3 stacks whenever it falls off?
Dumb question but is there a way to auto the application of the dots on multiple targets
When going through mobs, keeping finishers ready - liking opening with the 'full' moon, mushroom, starsurge, moonfire,(they can hit at almost the same time, and apply that slow). And if they have health maybe starsurge (if you got it), sunfire, etc. It's great having the slows built in. Like a 'bring me my loot and die build'.

Im not sure if understand it correctly. how does one use starfall in m+. do I just keep up one starrfall or do i stack it?
Just spam it, there is no any complicated stuff behind it. If we consider starfall alone, no minmaxing our talent starlord, u can just press it as soon as u have AP for it. Stacking or not, as long as u get full value of it(mobs won't die), u can use it however u want, no dmg loss.

isnbt m+ keeper of the grove also now again?

This helped a lot to understand the class/spec. But you mentioned there was an exception to using sunfire as single target but you never got back to that :) I'm guessing by now everything changes again with the new patch, so really looking forward to your updated guide! :D
Can anyone explain to me why moonkin starts with entering Lunar Eclipse while in a single target fight?
U didn’t mentioned treacherous transmitter trincket. Is it bad for balance ?
Most people i see, run Keeper in Mythic+ as well... Is this only for high keys?
Jeez, where do I find a girl like you? Anyway, great guide video. Really helped me as a new druid player
Is moonkin going to be bad after the changes of the 0.5?
How do you sim for M+?
Any changes with the new update
Lunar talents for M+? I thought it was KoG. Is this updated?
KotG is still better in every scenario
Authority of the Depths seems to be MEH and buggy. Radiant Power, for me, has worked really well.
keeper of the grove is best for single target/AOE rn and will still be after patch these talents are also not "top performing" talents from what i instantly seen looking at them.
So dont stack starfalls?
Hey ! We don't play keeper of the grove in Mythic+?
Elune's is better ? Are you sure ? O_o
thats my questions. Archon has KoG as ST and Multi
nice guide. but i dondt really get how you are dotting all mobs at 9:22 same time. :(
talents make it apply to multiple
Anyone know a good delves guide
my brain omg
Sim your talents is must. Lunar is bad for m+. Also for the trinkets this one from mists (red one) is better than arakara. For food the best for m+ is hearty Beledars Bounty.

does anyone actually show the talent tree

is this still current?

What lol? Boomie just using your cds and builder spender pretty straightforward imo
I think Boomie is the easiest caster class to play. The only thing that sucks is you do almost no damage during movement phases, while mages can still do full rotation.
Are you talking about needing to enter an eclipse state?

very low efford video i didnt understand crap. reading from a script with br-roll
Why is she this pretty 😅 its distracting
why on earth would anyone play this mess :D
Boomkin are way too complicated....keeping track of all of this plus boss mechanics is murder. It actually feels more like punishment.
