***World of Warcraft : Warlords of Draenor***

[Puppetmaster]

It wasn't a hybrid when I was playing in Cata! Was a healer focused more on absorbs and damage prevention back then. It's more healing through damage now..?

I recently leveled my priest to 100 playing disc and having a blast.

I've healed on a Shaman since Vanilla, Druid on and off since vanilla and a pala on and off since LK and Disc is mega fun to play.

Majority of your heals comes from your damage. You can still shield a bit but its not a major part of it. Its probably the most engaging of all the healing specs because of the damage component. I've been really enjoying it.

I don't usually PVP but did some the other day and enjoyed my self a lot.

Kara confirmed as a Dungeon in 7.1

...afaik Shaman are not in a good place right now for their specs...

From general forum reading, considered 2nd best healer (behind druid) and Ele does good PvE damage.

Not so good for PvP apparently.

But anywhoo - Do some class trials - Apparently you can test chars at lvl100 (one spec only) to see if you like 'em Then apply the boost if you want to keep 'em.

 

[Newbfail]

i think the whole Kara thing is something to do with either Sargeras or Medivh.

it was the place where Medivh was originally taken over by Sargeras.

Kara confirmed as a Dungeon in 7.1

Why is this a bad thing?

Karazhan was the first proper raiding I did in Wow, I'm quite looking forward to seeing it again (aside from when I was farming the mount I mean!).

aside from when I was farming the mount I mean!).

i still am!

 

[[HB]Rugrat]

i still am!

I did OK on that one actually - farmed it infrequently on one character and got it after 20-30 attempts. Invincible on the other hand...

That's handy, I just looked into it, this should go live with the launch of Legion so.

I've subbed again and had a quick spell with my old druid. After so long away I've been doing some reading on icy veins and they say they use ElvUI as the interface. I've never used it myself so is it worth using and easy to set up?

Super simple man, really good UI - I use it myself.

 

[Rexxar]

I use it, just having trouble with getting enemy nameplates to show with their health.

 

[Scotty123]

I resubbed. Disc is so weird. As a disc pvp healer of many years, I now have no idea what to do. The damage thing doesn't feel "right".

I might make a monk and go mistweaver pvp. That looks fun. I have a holy paly but it's too faceroll and not so fun.

 

[Gee]

Tried pressing Ctrl & V? Think that's the default keybind to get them to show.

 

[Captain Fizz]

Just V is the "Show Nameplates"

Also the Shadow & Light addition to ElvUI is very nice - Not keen on the built in profiles (skip that bit) but armoury stype char pane etc is good.

 

[Makhaira]

Levelling a druid at the moment and trying really hard to like it because I want to have a "one char fits all" setup. I've only played as a tank so far, and getting a bit put off by the sheer number of tanking abilities for druid, it seems massively complicated vs. the nice simple world of a blood DK. Am I doing it wrong, or is druid tank not for me?

 

[Captain Fizz]

I have both a DK and a Druid.
Going by Keybinds...
1 = Nothing / Pull in taunt thing
2 = Taunt / Taunt
Q = Mangle / Blood Boil
E = Thrash / Marromend
F = Swipe / Heart Strike
R = Moonfire / Death Strike
3 = Ironfur / Vampiric
Need to press 3 much more often as a druid though.

Both have Ursoc / AntiMagic Shell
Incarnation if talented / Dancing Blades
Both have interrupts (DK has a ranged one)
DK Has Gore Grip + Ranged Blood Boil + Wraith Walk (between mob packs)

About the same for me?

 

[Makhaira]

That's really useful, thanks.

I rarely use AntiMagic on my DK, and tend to only use Dancing Blades when panicked as it's such a short duration. I think I'm muddling quite a few more abilities into druid than I need to - Frenzied Regen, Survival Instincts, Barkskin, Roar, Entanglement, etc.

 

[Captain Fizz]

FR after a big hit, or having taken a lot of DMG in the last 5 secs (like Death Strike).
Barkskin good for initially grabbing a pack of mobs or boss.
SI is main "Urk" CD. If HP staying around 50% or a 2nd pack gets pulled... Use it then - Or a big hit inc.
Ignore entanglement!
Disrupting Roar is only good as an additional interrupt. (Shift + interrupt key)

Edit - Roar is for mobility... So raid needs to move from A -> B... Roar.
In 5-mans I use it as one boss is dead to speed up getting to the next pack.

Is there a list of where people play?
