It has been a long time since I have seen an updated Balance Druid Routine. As of rite now PureRotation is not horrible, but there is definitely room for improvement. I know the Balance Druid class very well and have played it for a very long time and would be willing to put in as much time as necessary to help in the development of a combat routine for Balance Druid. I know a few popular websites which I will list below which provide a nice outline of how the Balance Druid is played, but I will be able to inform on what needs to be changed as well as a close to "perfect rotation". If I knew how to make my own combat routines I would take a shot at this myself. If anyone would like to try and set this up just PM me and I will get back to you as soon as possible. I currently have a 512+ ilvl Balance Druid which it can be tested on.
Not sure if you're still looking but there's 2 more rotations that's currently out PewPewPew -- Handnavi YourRaidingBuddy -- Mine I recently updated to support Boomkin (multidot included with all the defensive cooldowns etc), it's still a rotation in progress. But you can go over to either of these two topics and give your feedback
PewPewPew -- Handnavi ----> Good work for multidot mechanic YourRaidingBuddy -- Alxaw--------> Very good DPS but no multidot mechanic (him add soon ) Stars -- Mirabis-------> is in beta phase and is released only for donor For now my suggest is use PewPewPew because multidot For Balance is very important when Alxaw add this on Cr run very fast to use YourRaidingBuddy
Finally i have tested all 4 CR (star - YRB - Pewpewpew - Purerotation 2) and my opinion is: Purerotation 2 This because have a good damage, cast in movemet starsurge proc, and (for me fundamental) multidot with starfire and sunfire everything in combat area around the target and reflash the dots in all mob affected. ( for exemple in Soo Boss: Klaxxi, Spoils, Galakras, Dark shaman...) Star and YRB have a good damage and "logic intelligence" but is in "beta" and miss the multidot all in combat and reflash the dots. Pewpewpew is good but is old and don't has a good intelligence compared with others supported cr. This is MY opinion, if Stars and YRB add this feature (multidots intelligence) make the Moonkin cr the best!
which PR2 did u test? cause in the current version (avaiable on SVN) are terrible bugs related to multidotting and casting while moving I fixed them already in a costum edition, for some (2-3) peoples, but haven't commited the changes so far
boh.... for me working good, what is the bug? my suggest is when Starsurge proc add stopcasting for prioritize starsurge cast. Whn i run and proc starsuge - starfall is istant casted... and reflash the dots... boh O_O ... Tell me the bug pls... My rev is 1787 ( last public svn)
the bug is that it does wrong multidotting currently (it does not recognize the correct state(lunar/solar), starsurge while moving in some specific situations isn't casted, multidotting has in general the wrong condition (when to multidot, when to refresh)) and some more bugs, well ... i think i'll commit the changes in the evening before my raid starts. if it is currently working for ya, it won't change that much, since the bugs are very specific
Yes is moooore specific... but for me now PR2 Balance work great, if you want add the change i'm happy! aaaaaah... I have report on PR2 main topic that amber ( Encase in amber on Soo 13/14 is not recognized and not cast nothing. But is more specific Now I go to test last YRB rev ( hope for multidotting work great )
Max, what ur raid exp if its not secret? for my close to 14 heroic best is PewPew, next going YRB one PR2 showed not bad for flex etc raiders, who dont want maximize their dps and ofc worst one is Stars with good config options and really bad rotation logic Fallin Protectors Heroic: PewPew - 545k dps YRB - 520k dps, good thing is YRB got settings so I can turn on/off cd usage on specific fights
my exp is 11/14 hm with PR2. for me is good. this night test pewpewpew but is work great in aoe. in single?? Have tested YRB and multidot NOT work...
PewPew when change phase like norushen-garrosh not work. Multidot in YRB not work again tell me your config for multidot pls...or you select npc manual or is possible that i have wrong config...boh...
