Guardian druid insane dps

[smusen]

I don't know if this works in in dungs, it's very possible it works, but it works in raids at least. If you got [Luffa Wrappings] and spec feral when you enter a raid, then respec guardian when you get inside, you'll keep the feral thresh damage.

Here is a hc run with this insane abuse Warcraft Logs - Combat Analysis for Warcraft

so legendary effects are considered exploits now? because the effects aren't spec specific.

This is not explait. Legendary effects work on other specs too. Im using balance druids healing boots on resto specc and they work normaly

[smusen]

You're right, its not an exploit if you don't understand what it does.

So you are doing the dmg of a ferals thrash as guardian

yes i edited because i read the comments before your post

Correct.
Just look at the logs and compare it to other others using same leg, who didn't do this.

[zuuu]

that legendary increase 75% trash and aoe distance on a feral

and it normally decrease to 25% both if you switch to guardian.

are you saying it was kept at 75% after switch?

That's correct, which explains the huge thrash damage compare to other logs.

Full rep to smusen for the idea and zuuu for getting to the heart of the matter. Great work.

Not an exploit, look at the other Legendary he's wearing. Elize's Everlasting Encasement - Thrash can stack up to 2 more times.

It's the most OP 2 legendary combo for Guardian DPS. Has nothing to do with exploiting and using the feral dmg.

As a guardian druid main. I can confirm this. The legs themselves, do increase trash damage by ALOT! And its the top damage spell for every guardian druid who runs mememto+chrono shard combo.


Memento boosts trash damage by an absolute ****ton because of all the mastery, and chrono shard gives another 2-3 ticks. I think Pumps is the only one who has the actual wrist+legs combo, thus the "extreme" looks at first sight. Inb4 blizzard nerf though.


He is playing with feral affinity alot, through the fight, and sits in catform, to also boost his dps alot.

People still don't understand what the original post means. Go look at logs of druids with bracers. The INITIAL hit of thrash is that of bracers doing 75% buff to Thrash instead of the 25% Bears are supposed to have. Just because someone has pants for 2 more stacks doesn't mean anything when the dot itself isn't what hits for 700k.

[Eryx]

This is within OwnedCore's definition of an exploit.
Thrash is not INTENDED to do this much damage, and with this trick you do more damage than you are supposed to.

Lets just end the discussion if this is an exploit or not right now.

@OP - thanks for sharing! +10 rep
