What’s the point of Emerald gem on opulence? is there any scenario where this one increases your damage more than the opal?
Short kills. Needing more damage on first set of adds.
Unless you get molten gold you don’t really need to move at all. Pretty much everyone should be stacked for coin showers, and your DPS should be able to wreck the adds before they get out of a resto vortex.
Stationary DPS, that isn’t going to be using Topaz, and usually if your raid is in a situation where you need damage for the adds but don’t have the luxury of being able to meet checks without the gem benefits so you give a few emerald and the rest opal. I don’t see any benefit to it this early in the tier for Mythic guilds (because you can’t just grip adds and kill them in Mythic) and I don’t see an benefit to it on lower raid difficulties at the moment because your typically getting enough waves to decimate them at a certain point in the fight.
I could be wrong it’s not like I’m continually researching various fight strategies after the PTR / week 1 raiding cycle ends.
If I’m not mistaken it’s the second set of adds where emeralds damage rotation peaks and is the most beneficial
Stack for healing but immune coin shower if you can on normal/heroic and definitely do it on Mythic because it’s like 90% of your health bar with a full stack and it’s devastating.
