I'm wondering how to properly use Fury of the Eagle after the opener. I read that it should only be used when you only have 6 stacks of Mongoose Fury. The problem is that there are times that I can only get around 4-5 on average while FotE is up and the stacks are about to fall off. Do I really not use it until I get 6, or should I use it on CD with whatever stacks I have? What takes more priority here?

I think the point is to generally use it when you're at 6 or when your buff is almost gone (thereby extending the duration through the cast, but without taking away the potential to cast more mongoose bites). I'm not sure where it's priority lies though, and that could honestly change based on how many stacks you have

Agreed. That was basically how I saw it. When you have 6, it's amazing and a huge priority, but below 6 stacks, I imagine the priority must vary a lot, also depending on what the next 45 seconds of the fight will hold.

Hey, quick question about potions...

Should I use Deadly grace or Old War during encounters? Can't really decide which one is the best.

Old war for sure. Deadly grace doesn't last as long if you're up close. Old war is designed specifically for melee

What do you mean?

The opener is only for the start of the fight, as your group pulls the boss. As soon as you finish the opener sequence, you use the Single Target one.

The opening sequence is meant to be followed in the order 1 - 2 - 3 etc.

The rotation is a priority rotation, in which you go down the list until you can do one of those things. If you can't do 1, you do 2. If you can't do 1 or 2, you do 3. If you can't do 1,2,3, you do 4.

I've tried it and it doesn't work at all!

The two soldiers just spawn and then run away without doing any damage. I'll stick to Grace until it's fixed.

Something to mention...I notice how this build doesn't emphasize Flanking attack or Animal instincts, If you make Flanking attack your 2nd priority to mongoose bite I have noticed a dps increase. With flanking attack in the rotation the buff it gives will be a permanent +3.33% mastery/haste and a 6.66% move speed. Also the attack that it does doubles the effect chance on hunting companion so it stacks mongoose bite faster. plus the pet haste/mastery is also beneficial for stacking mongoose bite.

Hello guys. I'm not entirely sure if it is because of the flanking strike buff we received a few weeks ago, but it seems to me that animal instincts is giving a higher dps than throwing axes. I've tried a few fights with it and my dps has gotten 10-20k higher than with the usage of TA. It also makes the rotation feels a little more fluid than with TA (sometimes you will get both 10% haste and mastery at the same time for like 3 seconds, thats amazing!). Have any1 else noticed the same?

Thanks in advance.

For MM content is it better to stick to the +375 versatility food or to get the 200 agility bonus from the Lavish Suramar Feast?

What do you mean by MM content?

For the comments concerning Flanking Strike, could you show a log of your testing of FS, as well as your use of the Throwing Axes and how it performed for you previously?

Animal Instincts still sims below Throwing Axes at the moment. The guide was updated a while ago to push Flanking Strike on cooldown to a higher priority given the damage buff. I might do more sims to figure out if prioritizing it even higher (like above Throwing Axes) is a better choice.

I have one very important question...there is a cap for stats? i mean there is a start point from all stats? like haste 3000 or mastery 2000 etc..

surv is not my MS but I'd love it to be.

 

Having limited AP and keeping in mind the buffs in 7.1 , I wonder if value of Sharpened Fang and My Beloved Monster doesn't warrant picking them up first before Fluffy, go and EotA and Bird of Prey

 

Thoughts?

Have the 7.1 buffs altered choices or rotation at all that you've noticed?  None of the buffed abilities really feature heavily in the rotation currently, but notably I wonder about Carve being pushed up in AOE, and if the animal instinct redesign might make it viable against throwing axes.  It seems nice, but I worry about any benefit being lost to desynching the cooldowns on Aspect and Snake Hunter.

Trailblazer also seems a bit weak, but in the face of the posthaste nerf (seriously why?  we're already so slow compared to in the past), it seems maybe possibly useful =/

Unless Trailblazer stacks with mount speed it seems like a complete joke, which is not too bad considering it's replacing another joke talent.

The new Animal Instincts mechanic is not in SimCraft yet. Any data/information pertaining to

1) How often it reduces the cooldown of abilities
2) How much it reduces the cooldown
3) If it reduces the cooldown of some ability more and/or more often than others.

would be super useful.

It may be that Raptor Strike actually doing damage now means that there's no penalty for using it on a single target, which will in turn make using it second nature, which in turn will make maintaining Way of the Mok'Nathal something inherent in the rotation, instead of something you have to go out of your way to do. I suspect the difference between Throwing Axes and Way of the Mok'Nathal will be small. I am not yet able to sim it in a desirable way, but I should be able to in a day or two.

      We have quite a few changes coming for healers in Season 4 with next week's reset, as Blizzard detail the overall reduction of throughput for some specs, as well as buffs to others. 
      Healer Tuning (Source)
      In Season 4, we’re reducing the overall throughput of some healers to better align with our tuning goals. At the same time, we’re increasing the comparative power of Holy Paladin, Preservation Evoker, and Holy Priest without needing to further escalate the capabilities of healers.
      The following adjustments are now deployed to the 10.2.6 PTR, and will go live with the beginning of Season 4 next week.
      Monk
      Mistweaver All healing done reduced by 13%. Does not apply in PvP combat. Druid
      Restoration All healing done reduced by 5%. Does not apply in PvP combat. Shaman
      Restoration All healing done reduced by 5%. Does not apply in PvP combat. Priest
      Discipline Developers’ notes: As part of our goal for balancing healers in raids, we would like to reduce raid healing output for Discipline Priest without affecting them in other content. Atonement transfers 35% of damage to healing (was 40%). Atonement healing increased by 70% outside of raids (was 50%). Atonement healing increased by 35% in PvP (was 15%). Player vs. Player
      Monk
      Mistweaver Ancient Teachings healing transfer amount reduced to 375% in PvP combat (was 412%).

      In this post, we’ll update the score required to earn the Dreaming Hero title for Dragonflight Season 3. As a reminder, the title will go to all players who end Dragonflight Mythic+ Season 3 with a Mythic+ Rating in the top 0.1% in each region.
      If the season ended today, in this region, the title would go to those who scored at least:

      Hoist the sails and batten the hatches; a Plundersurge begins this week with weekly maintenance!
      The Plunderstorm event is ending on April 30, but until then, pirating players can double the amount of Renown earned from all sources of Plunder by taking the Plundersurge. 
      Set Sail for the Plunderstorm
      Plunge into a challenging battle that earns excellent rewards for World of Warcraft® Modern and Classic progression realms. All you have to do is survive…and plunder. Can't seem to stay in the realm of the living? No problem. Plunderers still gain progression that helps unlock new rewards.

      Prepare to Plunder
      Plunderstorm is perfect for pick-up and play! No expansion purchase is required, but a World of Warcraft Subscription or Game Time is needed to participate in a high-stakes, play-by-the-seat-your-pants match. This means that Classic players can also participate in a plethora of plundering fun by simply installing the modern (Live) World of Warcraft client:
      Launch the Battle.net desktop app. Click the World of Warcraft icon at the top. If the icon is missing, click on All Games and select the game from the list. On top of the Install button is a drop-down menu. Confirm that you wish to install World of Warcraft. Click Install. Once you’re in modern WoW:
      Select Plunderstorm2 from the World of Warcraft game menu to get into the action. Create a new, ready-to-play character—player characters are unique to this event. You don't need previous knowledge of races and classes to chart your course for mayhem. Choose between Solo or—to play with your Battle.net friends—make a group from the Plunderstorm character screen and select Duo. If queued for a Duo without a partner, you'll be automatically matched with one. You can also access chat, customize characters, and see the queue from the Character Select Screen. Action Bar and Abilities, Worthy Mates
      Discover lootable spells, abilities, and upgrades as you plunder treasure chests and defeat enemies. Upon picking up, spells and abilities are automatically added to your Action Bar, with two slots dedicated to offensive skills and two for utilities such as leaps, speed boosts, and crowd-control.
      Some abilities are more action-based and require good positioning and player targeting. Have fun discovering and experimenting with different combinations to find what works for you.
      Upgrades to Your Spells and Abilities
      Your spells and abilities can be upgraded by discovering higher-quality versions from treasure chests or finding the same ability elsewhere and stacking it to Rank 3 (epic). There are also plenty of plundering opportunities—various treasure chests with different rarities that harbor all types of abilities are stashed around the map. Always stay on the lookout for better loot and upgrades.
      Spectating Spectre
      Upon death, keep watching the match from the perspective of your teammates (if they're still alive) or other players, including their loadout.
      Rewards A-Plenty for Plundering Pirates
      Players can earn cosmetics, pets, titles, and mounts as they progress through the reward track. These include the majestic Polly Roger parrot mount, Bubbles the crab pet, swashbuckling cosmetics, 750 Trader's Tender from "Keg Leg's Crew" for use on the Trading Post, and more. 3 A victory is not required to claim the spoils of a well-fought fight.
      To view Renown and apply the Plunderstorm weapon and transmog customizations, change titles, or summon pets, swabbies can click on Da'kash Grimledger standing directly in front of the spawn point in the Plunderstorm lobby.
      Customization unlocks are simultaneously unlocked for Dragonflight characters and can be found in your Collection. Each Renown level unlock is noted in colored text under the reward name, whether the reward is for Dragonflight, Plunderstorm, or Classic.

      Check out our first look at MoP Remix coming in Patch 10.2.7!
      When Patch 10.2.7 goes live, you will be greeted by the following screen, informing you about the MoP Remix event and its objectives. There will be a button that lets you create your Timerunner (character).


      Similar to Plunderstorm, there will be an icon on the character screen for MoP Remix with the number of days remaining.

      Timerunners will be marked with a special icon next to their name on the character selection screen.

      When you first enter the game, you'll start with a short intro quest on the Timeless Shore. Your character will be affected with the Pandaria: Remix buff.

      The quest intro features a few unique quests before you start replaying MoP from the very beginning. It introduces you to Bronze, the event's currency used to buy items and upgrade gear.  
      Throughout your journey you will come across some very unique gear just like this cloak (Cloak of Infinite Potential) that permanently increases in power (Timerunner's Advantage).

      Your char will have access to two important Timerunning abilities.
      Extract Gem - Extract a gem from one of your socketed items. Unraveling Sands - Summon Unraveling Sands that transforms your unwanted items into Bronze. Gems offer a lot of customization in MoP Remix and you want to extract them with Extract Gem, because placing a new gem on top of a socketed one will make you lose it.
      If you come across unneeded gear, you can scrap it for Bronze with Unraveling Sands.
