I have a group that I run mythics with in my guild on Azuremyst, and it consists of a balance/feral druid, a mistweaver/brewmaster monk, an outlaw rogue, and a ret/holy pally. I have a windwalker monk and a ret pally at 120, and am planning on leveling a shaman (unsure on spec at the moment) and was hoping for help deciding which class to play? I am one of our DPS mains btw.
Triple melee is generally not ideal for most weeks. Just based on that I would say ele shaman. That way you can bring a ranged and full lust/hero to the group.
Sorry I missed that you have a boomy. I still say ele but windwalker and ret are good in keys as well.
I am not an expert on mythic+ but have been watching some YouTube videos on the runs and it looks like the key to Mythic+ success is skipping. Skip the mobs that are too painful to kill and kill the easier mobs basically.
For skipping,
- Rogue = cloak of shadow = AOE stealth
- Druid = can go ahead in stealth, everybody else on their mount and cross over to the other side for Druid’s mass rez
- Shaman = All can ride to the other side and die, shaman self rezes and rezes all.
- Warlock soul stone on the healer
- DH has none of those but still a preferred DPS in Mythic+ cuz they are so good in BFA
This is what I know.
Be a DK or Pally tank if you like tanking.
Ideally a dream team would be like
DK tank = got battle rez
Druid healer = can go stealth for skipping
Rogue = good DPS + AOE stealth
DH = Good AOE dps
- all other classes fighting for the last spot.
elemental shaman. haste buff and rock rock guys for reaping/dangerous trash pulls are awesome utility.
Ele shaman DPS is subpar to other ranged classes.
I personally suggest to bring either a mage or a Hunter for RDPS
Ele shaman is one of the top, if not the top dps in m+ currently. Their sustained aoe is insane.
Edit: not the top because Demo Locks are busted atm.
This is an strategy when you have a good chunk of time left, try it in a 10 and it mostly loses its value.
Not only this but they are amazingly broken in keys
Yeah but they shine mostly on trash tbh.
Not saying they’re bad, just that you could take better for less risk
The dungeons are 95% trash
What about Tyrannical weeks?
Even when dealing with trash they’re not the only class that can dispatch them easily
OP here, this is my main, I forgot to mention that I have a 110 pyro mage I can level up that I’ve had since Legion. It won’t let me edit so I’m just putting it down here.
On tyrannical weeks you can pull more packs at a time to blow them up and get to the bosses faster. Ele shines there too.
Not sure what keys you run. But in the 15+ range I definitely prefer an ele to a mage/hunter/lock.
To each their own I guess
We’re being led by our friend Mistrix who runs a lot of higher keys, his highest is a +23. We all recently got back together after a long break and are getting into mythics now and gearing up so we’re doing upwards of +7.
Actually going tank right now is warrior… if your going to play a druid go balance or resto as feral is complete garbage and gets kicked the second i see he is feral spec from my groups, mistweaver is always a good pick for heals… frost mage is great for killing big AOE packs like every reaping, rouge is solid right now but unsure of the going spec, and blood DK even though it is second choice for tank i enjoy mine and still plenty viable… NEVER play a feral druid or enhance shammy they are both trash and just shiny objects blizz put into the game for 13 year olds
Actually our feral druid pulls more DPS than any other player we’ve grouped with so far. It’s not a trash spec, it’s just in a weird state rn.
