Blizzard AE in BRD

[MiRai]

Sidenote:
any chance we could go back to using the good old trusty / tried and true since 2006 "aoe " = "area of effect", instead of "ae". AE can mean a lot of things.. and can be confusing

The one thing we may agree on.

how do you avoid healer aggro on the pull? been trying it a bit and healer gets aggro while tank is tryuing to build aggro for me )

There's a number of things that can help you with aggro:

1) Make sure your imp is buffing you with fire shield (if you have a warlock)
2) Put a spike on your shield
3) Make sure your warrior has talent points in improved demo shout / battle shout
4) Make sure your healer has the threat reduction talent points
5) Make sure your tank is specced protection and is using defensive stance

If you have that covered and your healer is still pulling aggro, make sure your tank has decent gear (doesn't have to be great) and that you're doing level appropriate content. Most of the time, when doing big AoE pulls, you'll want to work on green mobs.

awesome videos! what add ons are you using? mainly interested in the party cast bar, cooldown, and buff tracker you have set up. I've been looking for something to do that, but classic add ons have been hit or miss so far..thanks in advance!

I would love to know as well, for now me personally im using classic castbars for party castbars but his setup just looks so much cleaner.

Also are thoose vuhdo clickbars with videoFx next to them, it looks super clean in your setup did you do anything special?. My setup looks super janky although it does the same as yours but im wondering how to get it closer to yours.

AOE = Area of Effect AE = Arcane Explosion

Isn't AE an AoE?

Nop. Ae is Arcane Explosion and has always been.

I typed the above "pun intended" but regardless I was pretty sure Arcane Explosion (AE) is an Area of Effect (AoE)...

Yeah, but when talkin inchat about AE it's referred as ARcane ExpLOsion:P regardless aoe or not :P
Happens to the best of us

Thanks - Could you share your lock and warrior full builds as well? I run same team comp but not using blizzard/rain at all - might be loosing out
