[4.5] The Hot Pot

Post by Hokhmah »

Copy/Paste from my original forum guide.

Long time ago, back when BoS wasn't out, primalist players played an easier QuackBack spec.
It was easier because it had an instant scald for easier movement , but the downside was it was dealing less dps than the QuackBack spec.

We recently tried it again in our raid group , and after some Buff stacking fixes this spec is now at the same dps as QuackBack.

I'm not the creator of this spec , we were lot's of primalist player finding it back in the days , everyone playing in their own way but doing about the same things. There is no guide for it atm so i decided to do one , since our test were very good in our last BoS raid.

So let's start the guide now :

Soul tree :
https://rift.magelo.com/en/soultree#Rm1 ... !3k0w|__Tw

61 : Exhileration
62 : Steadfast Rejuvenation
63 : Vulpine cunning
64 : Elemental Affinity
65 : Spiritualism

Legendaries :
Rage of the beast
Scything strike
Fury blast
Molten wave
Scald

Macros :

SS macro :
#show Scything Strike
suppressmacrofailures
cast Rage of the Beast
cast Scything Strike
cast Serpent Tooth

FB macro :
#show Fury Blast

targetlasttarget

Easy rotation :

Start at 100 Fury (spam Scorpion pierce or use avatar from tank spec / don't forget to unequip and re equip the Omnox trinket scorpion pierce will proc it),
Use Flashpoint beacon so you already have stacks at pull,
Scald x2 ,
SS macro -> FB macro -> spam to 80 or 100 fury ( 2 or 3 time the macro depending on cd) -> SS -> MW -> spam to 80 or 100 fury -> repeat
Use spiritualism on cd.
Keep beacon close to you.

Hard rotation , more dps :

Start at 100 Fury (spam Scorpion pierce or use avatar from tank spec / don't forget to unequip and re equip the Omnox trinket scorpion pierce will proc it),
Use Flashpoint beacon so you already have stacks at pull,
Use Rage of the beast at best 30sec before pull (not always doable use it at soon as countdown start otherwise),
Scald x2 ,
(engage only) SS macro -> FB macro -> Spam to 40 fury -> SS -> MW -> Spam to 80 fury
(rotation) SS -> FB -> Spam to 40 fury -> MW -> spam 1 time (20 cunning) -> Scald -> Spam to 80 or 100 fury -> repeat the rotation part.
Use Spiritualism when you don't have stacks of Rage of the Beast and no procced SS.
Keep beacon close to you.

Thx for reading , as usual feel free to improve it , to change it to fit your playstyle , and have fun.
