I don't know the exact range but you can get a feel at it by testing on target dummy and see when is your Lunar proc happening. And while I mentionned range, boomie have a magic range, where flight time of wrath is so that Lunar proc is as late as it can be in the next GCD, yielding shorter eclipse rotation (by up to 1 second). And when you don't have multiple target, Focus is a net DPS loss. Close call, and it also provides near-perfect idol uptime, lower the range requirements, so I'd go Glyph of Moonfire anyday, over Focus. Glyph of MF, by extending MF by 2x ticks will yield two ticks per eclipse rotation (in my case, and eclipse rotation is averaging 36s), yielding around 8.8k damage per 112s. This is a 166 DPS increase for strong positioncal requirements, and stronlgy jeopardizing idol uptime. Glyph of focus will yield 10k damage per 60s of fight. If you can use the 20 stars (requires at least 2 targets) then your Starfall damage can go around 100k per use. P.S: Many of those ideas are not mine, simply ones I've gathered over the ages, I claim no originality of any sort with this post.Ī second idea was swapping out Glyph of Moonfire for Glyph of Focus Please do not tell me to keep 100% uptime on IS to give 3% avoidance to the tank, I am aware that the Owl is considered a support class and I should go mage if all I care about is dps, im just curious about every bit of minmax people feel like sharing. I hope this thread generates some discussion and anyone who feels like pulling out the math will be most apreciated, as I dont believe myself good enough a theorycrafter to consider this. Oh and it seems foolish to ask but do you folks believe starfire outperforms even Eclipsed Wrath during BL? I usualy do not wish to break my cycle but if there is an offchance might as well ask. Do you believe this a worthy point? I have no issue sacrificing the pushback resistence on wrath you would usually get with these points, due to OF making you pushback immune. I had qualms about Gale Winds but then again I usually heal VDW so. Insect Swarm which is not that great a talent tbh. Is that as clear a dps gain as it seems?Īnd as far as talents are concerned - Owlkin Frenzy seems to proc rather often on fights such as Marrow and LoD infest used to proc it around 10 months ago when I was still a LoD raider, to obtain all 3 points I would sacrifice Gale Winds and 1 point from Imp. If however you disregard this idea and simply MF when running out of solar or to maintain your stacks you will find yourself at a point where your mf has faded and lunar has just faded as well, would you use IS then? When would it be worthy? I simply cast it due to not wanting to risk my idol stacks but some more informed opinions would be great.Ī second idea was swapping out Glyph of Moonfire for Glyph of Focus, most fights do not penalise you for being in focused Starfall range, and while many can argue that numbers on Marrow or DBS dont matter its still a nice point to discuss IMO.Īnother one - Idol swapping the Resto Idol with rejuv as a form of prepot, then swapping to Lunar Eclipse Idol, then back to Resto for the last tick of rejuv and then its business as usual. (Is that correct or is it simply suboptimal gameplay that would risc the idol?) Not getting a crit in 5 Wraths is not that uncommon(It isnt seen often but it exists) combine that with not getting a Starfire crit right off the bat and you are putting your stacks in jeopardy. However even if the assertion in this post is correct (which is that you've 6s of your MF left at the end of a Lunar Eclipse) this would require some good RNG to instantly proc your Solar eclipse and would only leave you with 5s of Vicious(Idol Stacks) left once you leave the eclipse. Only refreshing MF after a wrath cast that procs Nature's Grace. from this thread (User NainVert's post) I saw a very interesting idea. (Figuring that losing my 5% crit for several seconds is better than losing a gcd while under a near 1k SP boost) I prepot speed though, due to having lunar as my first eclipse to make best use of Engi gloves.)Ģ) I let dots drop during trinket procs (PotNL and CTS both HC) even if it means losing my Idol stacks.
(My Idea here is that spellpower is better than haste, and the devaluation of crit that stems from it being useless during Lunar Eclipse is not a factor.
I have been utilising several ideas but as to their correctness I am unsure:ġ) Using Potion of Wild Magic during Solar Eclipse instead of Speed during Lunar.
How do you people maximise your dps on boomkin? I've been meaning to pose this thread for something like 5 years now so here goes.
