Two dungeons still only have a +26 as their record.

Comment by AverichThere is a mistake in the dungeon runs table. New record for Seat reads +27, but is linked to a +26 run (which would correspond with 2 dungeons having +26 as their maximum).Comment by perculiaShould be fixed now!Comment by fluffyburritoFor dps, how vital is team comp compared to team familiarity?

For example, if your ranged slot is always an arcane mage and you’ve been grouping with the guy for a long time is it more important that they level another class or is it more important that you’re used to what they’re capable of?Comment by 1801230This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by buscavaIf you're going to be pushing some of the keys like the above, then it starts getting to a point where familiarity and comfort with a person isn't going to get you the completions like having the right spec/class will. Even just checking out the new records, the healer is a Holy paladin, and there's always a Warlock. Tanks were blood DK or prot paladin. For the super high levels, there's a lot less flex on comp.

However, as lots of guides and posts have said, if you aren't the super elite or pushing these nuts keys then pretty much any comp, any spec/class, is gonna get results with practice, execution, and teamwork. You just probably won't set records unless you're in the more ideal comps.Comment by MorvangorBring the player, not the cla... the Ghost of the Crawler is gone! ;)Comment by JaliscienseThis question is I guess more specially aimed at Jdotb, since he plays a rest druid.

As you start scaling the mythic+ ladder and start getting to those higher up dungeons. How do you deal with the high burst dmg. Especially when such affix are active during a given week.?
Do you feel that Resto Druid doesn't have the hard output for burst healing when needed?Comment by heyshannaHey there! Just to add some clarity here for Papasmuurff, Method the guild doesn't sponsor anyone. The guild, or specifically the main raid team, is one of many professional teams that are sponsored by Method the organization. Method has teams that compete in Rocket League, PUBG, H1Z1, Fortnite and more -- and of course our WoW Esports teams. So to address your concern directly, we of course have esports professionals from outside the WoW guild that are involved with Method.

You can learn more about how Method has grown since our days as just being a guild on our website (method.gg) if you're interested.

Kind regards,
