What’s your M+ secret?

Mine is that I want a shaman in every single group I make. So lovable, usually good people.

They lust so I don’t have to (MM), they have the shortest interrupt in the game and it’s ranged, they bring an AoE stun. Shamans are the pug essential.

If I’m filling the last spot and there’s no shaman, I’ll keep waiting until we get a good shaman. 135 applicants, there will be more and one of them will be a good shaman. I take resto shaman over any other healer regardless of the meta. I’ll take elemental over even a destro lock (and now fire mage). I’ve grouped with many solid enhancement players over the last few expansions and I’ve always been pleased.

I love shamans!

In keys I list I want bloodlust and battle rez primarily. The class doing lust I don’t care I pick hunters or shamans. I do like a warlock as they can provide healthstones and battle rez. In fortified keys (as tank) the healthstone is very nice. If it’s quaking and I already have melee DPS I go for a ranged healer (same with volcanic). If there’s a lot of interrupts needed I pick classes with short interrupts.

I take people better than me so I can chest the key. Works great.

I used to love inviting nonmeta classes (don’t pug much anymore), just for the feeling of giving them a chance when many wouldn’t.

I also pay a lot of attention to names. A funny name might get you an invite over someone else better suited to the group. A stupid name will pretty much guarantee I will ignore the application, even if they’re 5k IO :smiley:

When healing, I give PI to whoever has the funniest name.

I won’t invite someone with an offensive name.

dude signed up for my key last night named “Siegheil”

clicking that X never felt so good.

Well im a blood dk so thats kind of a meta tank, but i usually just pick what ever really. I enjoy giving people who don’t get usually picked a chance. They tend to whisper me at the end thanking me for letting them get into a key.

I speak Spanish also, so if i have a ragnaros player I try to make it all “Latino servers” that way everyone can understand each other for the most part.

My secrets:

I want a rSham because I like the splashy water :ocean:

I actually love having a good hunter that I can trust to pull for me to help.

I’m only pretending to know what I’m doing.

My secret is, unfortunately, the more melee you have on your team the harder the key gets.

I’m only pretending to know what I’m doing as the tank when I pull a bunch of packs.

I’m as surprised as you are when we get through it with no deaths.

Secrets?

I avoid Mistweaver Monks, Shaman DPS, and anyone who has a bad timed/untimed ratio.

That’s like avoiding Bigfoot on your camping trip, I feel. Not that hard to do :face_with_spiral_eyes:

they are def last on my list, unless they’re someone I know.

They just dont synergize well with Paladin tanks in my experience as well as other classes.

I looked at my RIO season recap and played with druid healers the most, by far.

When we’re running high keys (around 25+ usually), I will basically run a full on background check on people (I’ll look up their IO, past IO, raid logs and check their names against some of public blacklists shared). A few times we’ve contacted some guild officers to ask about someone’s performance and/or attitude. It seems like alot but it’s saved us so much frustration.

I love inviting non meta classes. I know if I see a ret paladin with higher IO, they had to work twice as hard as alot of people for it and will pump and use their utility like crazy.

I have a 3k rshaman and 3k mwmonk and you can feel the community lol.

Mw just lacking in everything other than hps when compared to Shamans.
