Which addon would you suggest to keep track of these abilities or buffs? Something that will make it very obvious?

[@Hoxx99]

OmniBar or WeakAura should do that trick.

[@Kyroshi]

Gladiatorlossa is something which you can also play. Gives you a voice saying loud all the major abimities. The number of spells can be tuned down, tho

Isn't Primordial Fury only for healers and not Ele ? or does it modify offensive spell crits too ? 6:50

[@ziggs123]

Ele as well. Has been like that 4 ever

[@BranBronzebeard701]

Its not for healer shamans, but there's a doffremt talent for dmg crit boost to which they were probably intending to show

[@brodyherrmann5746]

Primordial Wave for resto gives you a buff on your next healing wave and can be used offensively to add flameshocks to targets, but I would highly recommend not doing that. Ele it allows the LVB to overload on all targets with Flameshock.

I always figured Emerald Communion got interrupted via fear since it forced movement, and its not castable while moving! Good to know!

[@derpsammich2303]

It's castable while moving

[@Ridingthewaves305]

You can cast it while moving 😂 and it continues to heal even while feared

[@AaRoNiAnnn]

Priests can MC the emerald communion too, except the cast takes forever so if you’re super quick they still get half the channel off..

Yes. Press MC and break the game.

[@frankmanson3]

I had a Druid cast cyclone during emerald dream and it still went through?

[@Avatinfernus]

Yup. You cant move but you're still healing. At this point I legit do it on purpose when I see cyclone come. Cause cyclone is such BS no-CD spammable CC it drives me crazy lol

I really feel like Brock Lesnar is a good representation of a DH. Both are fighting with "advantages".

[@clunkydoo]

Warrior is easier to play

[@mugstep]

I'd just focus the evoker when Emerald Communion comes. They'll use it to heal their teammates in an emergency, but the healing only works if the evoker is at full health. If he's using it to heal his teammates and you keep him below 100% health, his teammates won't be healed at all.

[@MrSeanqueef]

Ohh i didnt know that.

[@jvo6770]

@@MrSeanqueef its not true if he uses verdant embrace like almost every evoker should be doing beforehand, it will transfer 40% of the healing regardless of if hes topped or not. Not good advice

[@ziggs123]

The healing is so strong there is absolutely no point in using cds to pump into it.

[@PeleJenkins]

Yeah... don't do that

[@Avatinfernus]

a good evoker will echo/ve (which will cause lifebind) teammates before and they'll still get healed.

[@Xman305]

[@Skz1337]

Do 10 stacks of wound poison reduce healing by 50%? It seems to be 2 stacks of 5 so I would imagine it doesn't actually change anything

[@CaptainNoobzor]

it does stack to 48%, and when you apply shiv, it replaces one stack of wound poison but not the other, so you get a 24% + 35% for a total of 59% mortal strike

[@Skz1337]

@@CaptainNoobzor Woah that sounds insane

[@CaptainNoobzor]

@@Skz1337 yeah it is, although too bad deathmark doesn't actually exist because everybody and their mom is either an evoker or dwarf

[@piposanchez]

@@CaptainNoobzor assass is S tier. Seems odd to be complaining about another class being OP when yours too is broken. Deathmark does exist, and I'd bet my money your using it wrong by not baiting it out.

[@CaptainNoobzor]

@@piposanchez you're reading my comment wrong. Never said assass wasn't strong, never complained about evoker being OP. I'm complaining about the design of the ability. Throughout shadowlands they've made dark soul, icy veins, arcane power, and combustion undispellable. Why not keep following that line of thinking and add deathmark to the list? I'd gladly trade the wound poison stacking for an undispellable deathmark.

[@MasterWooPing]

You can also Mindgame Emerald Communion. 👍

[@dask7428]

Irrelevant, the spell heals so much that the mg just doesn't matter

[@Avatinfernus]

@@dask7428 yeah i've been mindgamed during EC and found it did nothing.

[@tworadon]

Gouge is classified as an Incapacitate mechanic, so it DRs with incaps, but the "Stun" you see is just its behaviour. Gouge makes t h target not move, just like Paralysis which is also an incap but acts like a stun. Other incaps like Incapacitating Roar apply "Confuse" instead, so the target wanders around instead of being stuck in place as if they were stunned.

[@workeveryday8737]

@@K4113B4113rogue mage is all about resets. Go in get some cds. Reset. Go in again once your stuns are off dr. Reset. And you do this until you win. Get a shadowstep macro on your mage partner is secret to help rogue survive. Rogue and mages are not meant to get hit. So thats why they have so much cc. Mage should also ice block when his sheep is on dr. At this moment the rogue can eat mage food. Once you get the hang of rogue mage and resets. They are pretty hard to kill as they are so slippery. To summarize be mindful of stun and sheep drs. And fight when its convenient for you. So low lvl rogues this is what usually happens. They go in they burst they win. If they dont win in the opener. They get low. They vanish. Then they open again. Then they either win or die. The trick is to use shadowstep macros to create more resets. The mage job is to sheep whoever you arent killing. The mages job is also to sheep the dps to help the rogue run away. Once the kill attemp has failed.

[@K4113B4113]

@@workeveryday8737 This is actually really helpful. I'll tell my rogue buddy he should get a shadowstep macro on me. So when facing a healer, you would burst them on the opener and get them to use CD's and then reset and not care if they heal up? Then go again when DR's are gone? We definitely need to sync up our resets as it often happens we do it one at a time so one has to fight them while the other eats. Not good.

[@Avatinfernus]

I agree Emerald Communion is OP and sort of broken in what it can and can't do. But the 3 cc evasion (shroud) of evoker feels mandatory for being a healer that has to legit be in range of all the kicks/CCs to heal anyone. You're extremely vulnerable to other healer's CCs like hex/cyclone when that thing is out the window.

Nether portal is completely trash. Almost nobody picks it at higher rating, as it is such a meme. But I guess it's good to list here in case you see it and have to counter it. It can be insanely strong if you do literally nothing to stop the ramp, and also do nothing to the pets while letting them hit you.

I'm not sure how they could nerf evokers without completely ruining the class. IMO I think it's fair for a healer to have high throughput that has to play 30 yards from their team at all times. You nerf the throughput and they're just garbage, because of constant CC even with shroud.

@@kklap3219 You can counter the hunt by CCing or rooting the DH while he is mid-air. This puts the ability on cooldown. An incap or ranged stun like asphyx/pet stun works really well, granted that the DH is not directly on top of you as he uses it.
