Reroll same boss same week

Ive heard different opinions about this. If a player has 2 or more voidcore bonus roll tokens. Can he clear the same boss on hc on the same week and roll multiple times?

Valeera is broken.... again....

?? Nemesis pulls. Might as well not even try it as a healer right now. Basically all of her dmg is coming from corrosive bilespear. Valeera is doing trash damage. I have tried all the usual things...

- Change random curios ( tried basically all the combinations)

- Change her roles

- Reset the instance (running in/out)

- Changed own spec

- Went into ? difficulty, same thing.

- Etc.

Nothing works. She is absolutely broken. Took her to a delve, 700k dps on 3 mobs... and corrosive bilespear was 4th on dmg.

P.S. my valeera is lvl 80

Undocumented and ham-fisted nerf to Deathbringer Blood DK has been discovered on live with a sluggish rotational change rather than number tuning.

Deathbringer BDK now no longer gets a stack of exterminate when casting reapers mark. This is a measly 3% damage nerf that is unlikely to affect DB Blood's standing amongst the tanks.

While the power budget effects will be small, this change represents a severe rotational damper put on by blizzard for no good reason. Any blood player would have gladly taken a 3% tuning nerf on exterminate over this change. It makes the rotation feel far more awkward, sharply reduces the fluency of aggro in mythic+, and makes it more difficult to obtain max stacks of reapers mark before the buff's expiration. But most importantly, it makes Deathbringer feel *way* less fun to play

Edit: It is now documented. Still cringe

Tips/Tricks to improve FPS

I play on a gaming laptop that includes a 4070 https://www.bestbuy.com/product/asus-rog-zephyrus-g16-16-oled-qhd-240hz-gaming-laptop-intel-core-ultra-9-16gb-lpddr5x-nvidia-rtx-4070-1tb-ssd-eclipse-gray/JJGGLRZ4R6/sku/6570222

When sitting in Silvermoon I usually get around 45-60 FPS. Last night in raid I was dipping down as low as 25 FPS.

I play on a base game setting of 3 and have most things on low. I use big wigs/little wigs and platynator.

Is there any tips/tricks out there to help boost up FPS when in heavy settings like raid bosses?

Would love to hear what people have done to help improve it.

Thank you

2x bonus roll next week?

To my surprise I see we are able to pick 6x "Thalassian token of merit" from the vault this week. The vendor seeling items in exchange for these tokens, does not yet have bonus rolls in his list.

Do you guys think we can hold these for next week and have another bonus roll. So spending 12 tokens for 2 rolls?

Best updated addons for m+

Hi, i've been using EXboss in S1 for M+ and it's been great with sound queues and additional assistance. It will be updated for S2, but too late for first day progression.

Littlewigs out of box isn't the best if you're used to more hand-holding.

Are there any updated alternatives out there?
Or do any of you have any other useful M+ tools?

Prepping for nemesis ?? HoF

Just curious what everyone is doing to prepare for this delve boss come reset.

Obviously some gamers won’t need to do anything and will beat it within a few pulls. But for the avg player trying to squeeze out as many advantages as possible what would you consider high to low priority?

So far I’ve been able to accrue 64 souls which unlocks the ability to use two powers at once. I’ve gotten Valeera to lvl 80. Done the delve with map across a ton of toons to unlock and upgrade most all of my curios (many are still 3/4.. I haven’t 4/4 any yet)

What else am I missing? Multiple toons are 290+ that I will give it serious attempts with (bdk, havoc, guardian druid, prot pally)

Warcraft Recorder: Auto-Record Your Mythic+ and Raids in the 12.1: The Curse of Ula'tek

Hey r/CompetitiveWoW!

I'm back once again to share that Warcraft Recorder is updated to support the latest content in Midnight Season 2, including the Venomous Abyss raid and the new Mythic+ dungeon pool.

I won't rehash my previous posts, hopefully most people here have heard of Warcraft Recorder by now, but if you haven't feel free to check out the website.

I'm also excited to have some new features in the application that have recently launched (some in today's release, some since my last post here). The headliners are:

  • Instant replay: you can now watch your video recording before the activity has finished. Not sure why you died and have no CR available? You don't need to wait till the pull ends to look.
  • Audio track control: you can now route audio to specific tracks in the output MP4 to isolate different audio sources, making subsequent video editing easier.

A few months ago Warcraft Recorder was acquired by Warcraft Logs, which I shared in my post here. I also recently shared an update on YouTube about the future roadmap for Warcraft Recorder and Archon Cloud Video. Since then, we've also launched Archon Cloud Video.

You can find lots more details on the above (and ask any questions you might have) in the Warcraft Recorder Discord server.

Thanks for reading, and good luck in Season 2!

RWF characters tracker

I don’t recall if it was in manaforge or midnight s1, but there used to be a website where you could see every character being used by the big 3 for raiding and do all sorts of operations to it ( sort , filter )
I know you can search manually and try to find it yourself on raiderio but it was something else .
I can’t seem to find it . Any1 remembers this or am I tripping ?

Boss Cheat sheet for M+ Dungeons

EVERY DUNGEON VIDEO thats why i made the cheat sheets -https://youtu.be/HP20FYYNn88

I made a boss cheat sheet for all the M+ Dungeons. I used the sheets as part of my video guide for healers. But i think the cheat sheets are useful on their own. The whole cheat sheet can be found at the imgur link.

Let me know if this helps or I need some edits or something is unclear so I can learn and get better for next time.

Alt reroll/catchup mid-season 2?

So the general consensus going around is taking the bonus roll from the vault each week.

However, in case someone decided to reroll mid-season, how alt catchup on number of bonus rolls will be possible?

I know generally you’d roll the raid boss once per week anyways, but with extra bonus rolls you can simultaneously roll the other bosses for a faster ilvl catchup
