  1. A great number of us have been playing since 2005 and evolved with the game. It’s a time investment. If you want high io, you have to sacrifice time and money. I love my guild. We have pushed keys and I’ve gotten in good pug groups too. I just don’t have all day to play like when I was 16. Thanks for helping the new guys out.

  2. 8th rule, don't pull if you are not the tank. That said, I'm a tank and it is often frustrating having some players which think we can go faster and pull. When I wait a few seconds as a tank, this is with the intention to wait that a cd for a proper pull is coming up again. E.g pulling as a port pala out having my shield of avenger on cd is a very bad idea, especially in larger groups. same for other cds.
    9th rule, please look around not pulling accidentally patrol groups that are not on the list. This often causes a wipe or one or more players need to use cds that are planned for another purpose. So, I think sometimes it's better to wipe than having cds for the next tyrannical boss.
    What do you think?

  3. Thanks for these principles/advice. What I would like to know is the name of the object underneath (and/or surrounding) your druid healers that shows "wild growth" in the center of it? It looks cool — does it take much effort?

  4. While I find this very helpful, none of this matters if your main source of keys is through dungeon finder and you can't really make progress.
    Just yesterday I spent 4 hours looking at dungeon finder and applying to almost all +10-11 groups without getting into any of them. I play meta dps and my score should be more than enough for average group leader (I avoided those elitist kind of groups since they are always a waste of time). And it wasn't even that I would get instant declined like last week, but there is so many dps players trying to find a group that unless you are super high ilvl or score, it's nearly impossible to even get in.

  5. Hi! I liked what you said about the damage and how it all matters. As a resto shaman, I feel as if I could be doing more damage but Im not certain how to approach it. Usually, I try to keep flame shock, lava burst, and chain lightning in the rotation as much possible. Any tips?

    Is there a significant difference in the potential damage output from different healer specs? Say, holy paladin vs resto shaman?

  6. In "Damage matters" i notice you tried too much to explain it, I think a good way to say it is basicly: if the objective die faster, it won't be able to kill you. It literally happened to me yesterday doing DOE with the gnomes, after doing it with literally 3 groups and all of them failing on killing them until someone left (we couldn't stun the female gnome when casting the bombs), we finnally did it when I decide to use my last drums because none of us had hero, so instead of actually stop her casting we just killed her. So they cannot kill you if they're dead 🙂

  7. As funny as it might sound I think I make less mistake than I think I do, I am decently new to the game, I’ve only started playing since shadowlands launch, I am a healer main, and since I’m new, when every time someone dies I always think it’s my fault. I always apologizes. Until some of my guild member started telling me that it’s those people’s fault for prioritizing dps over dodging ability……

  8. Even tho all my friends play wow a'd we re always chillin on discord, most of the time i play solo mythic + like it doesnt really bother to play with new people everytime i think it's so much fun.

  9. LoL I said avoid Azralon player. They are the dumbest player of all and will always rage quit and leave your key. Same goes for rag and Illidan server. They want people who are above ilvl to carry them. 😄🤣😂😆😄

  10. Great tips man this is my first xpac doing mythic+ I started WoW during legion have not done 10’s yet got 8’s and 9’s plan to step it up soon I started on 2’s and moved up slowly on every dungeon

  11. i agree on many points of this video, except the number 2… i mean u can do a dungeon u already did just for fun or to farm a piace of gear but apart from that i always try to do new staff but i only queque for dungeons if i know i can tank it, i would never try a key that i'm not 100% sure i can handle. The thing is that if u don't play dh rn u are not allowed to tank in pug and so if me and a dh has the same rio they will pick him and so his score will go higher and so they will keep taking him… it's very frustrating… Today i spent 2 hors in oribos trying to go into a 17 with 2 17s done and all the 16s… so fun 🙂

  12. Just discovered this video and your channel and it all makes sense honestly, the acceptance of the bench is something a lot of newer players won’t understand and to a point that’s a good thing, nothing was worse in vanilla/tbc than sitting on the bench as my hunter unable to leave or log off and I just had to sit outside waiting to be called up, no playing alts nothing, the one thing I will never miss about vanilla

  13. very informative and good video! allthought i do have a question: how do you deal with tyrannical weeks? for most part it feels like people refuse to do dungeons on tyrannical weeks, especielly when there is really nasty affixes like necrotic and bolstering. Is there a way to motivate people to do keys in despite of this? I was pushing a bit in BFA (only got to +19s done with pugs, didnt have a dedicated team) and even then for example most people werent too hyped about trying to push during tyrannical weeks. any advice or thoughts on this?

  14. I agreed with mostly everything except when you said stay away from people who only do keys that give them score. Nobody is playing a game to waste time on something that wont progress them. 40 minutes just for something that doesnt benefit you makes 0 sense. + you won't be making friends in pug groups so it still doesnt matter to do them
