does that big chunk of vers help negate spening rage on anythhing but execute eg shhield block?

chilly brook
#

Sigil vs phial is largely down to fight timings

strong forum
#

even if you only get 1 use

chilly brook
#

Since when is rage an issue

vestal moat
#

Should we get Sigil over ows

strong forum
#

if a boss is in execute, you dont press IP unless you fear for your life

chilly brook
#

And every execute is like 4% hp back anyways

dry spear
#

We start progress tomorrow on ryga. Fight is over 5 min?

strong forum
chilly brook
#

Depends on your group

strong forum
#

ryg is just over 5min if youre mad pump

#

5:40 to 7min boss

#

so you use Sigil on pull

#

then hold until execute

chilly brook
minor helm
#

Sigil owns

chilly brook
#

It’s actually so nice to have the flexibility

strong forum
#

its rare to have a trinket with such a long CD be so strong

#

but only in raid for tank*

#

in m+ its not good

chilly brook
#

I’m sure it has it’s uses in m+ but I would just use something else that’s generally better in all cases

strong forum
#

for bosses its ofc sick for execute still in m+

#

but its hard to get value out of packs for it as tank

chilly brook
strong forum
#

idk bout that

chilly brook
#

But again you’re talking niche cases for something like sigil in keys

strong forum
#

keys are so much more than just bosses on high levels

#

80% of the key is still trash mobs

chilly brook
#

I know

strong forum
#

lots of HP to chew through

chilly brook
#

But high tyran keys there’s usually one boss that will brick your run as opposed to a trash pull

strong forum
#

well yeah sure

#

and theres tanks timing keys despite having codex equipped

chilly brook
#

Big facts

#

Tldr the cases you’d consider using sigil in keys are so highly situational you’re better off running something that does something for you the whole run and doesn’t require any extra thinking

strong forum
#

yup

#

stat sticks usually translate the best into keys these days cuz trinket swapping is illegal

#

which im still medge about

chilly brook
#

I miss gear/legendary swapping

strong forum
#

Imagine actually being able to unequip a defensive trinket when you don't need it and instead be able to equip a dps trinket

#

:gasp:

#

And then equip said defensive trinket for dangerous pull X

#

:gasp:

oblique garnet
#

No

strong forum
#

Just make it so you can only have 2 diff set of trinkets

#

Boom done

#

No hardcore trinket rotating

#

If that's gonna be your argument

waxen orbit
#

That I’d totally be fine with

#

Thwump approved

oblique garnet
#

Yeah ok so youd switch between seismic and reprisal aswell in keys because well thats the sort of degeneracy that comes out of it assuming 0 limitations

blazing condor
#

yes xeos

strong forum
#

Nah only trinkets

oblique garnet
#

It would be good for a while but turn into a major hassle in less than couple of weeks

urban portal
#

and cant swap if on cd

#

would be great

#

be more punishing

strong forum
#

Nah the swapping if on CD is good

urban portal
#

and dont need to optimize

strong forum
#

Only 2 set of trinkets, not legendary swapping

#

Would already be amazing for tanks

oblique garnet
#

Then its pointless

strong forum
#

Cuz 8/10 pulls you don't need defensive trinkets

#

How is it pointless

#

You can rotate between 2 dmg trinkets as dps

mighty valley
#

this is not a thought through take but some days i want trinkets removed. or redesigned so heavily that they're just something else

strong forum
#

And tank between dmg and defensive

oblique garnet
#

How long the cd would be?

strong forum
#

0

strong forum
#

Only out of combat

#

Just like normal

oblique garnet
#

Yeah so 30 seconds then in on use trinkets

strong forum
#

Pmuch

#

Or make it 1min after combat ends

oblique garnet
#

Yeah no

strong forum
#

So you can swap every 2 packs or w/e

#

Or a 5min idk

#

I just hate the idea of running a defensive trinket and just blanket use it for the fuck of it cuz I don't need it for 90%of the key

sand pebble
#

give us a passive damage and passive def trinket that hhas an on use swap

strong forum
#

I'm fine with 1 on use trinket

sand pebble
#

same i like 1 use 1 passive

strong forum
#

But I just don't wanna be in the situation of not having the need of a defensive trinket but still needing to run it for very specific scenarios in key X so you have a semi dead slot for the majority of a key

#

When in raid I can easily opt out of said trinket based on the boss

chilly brook
#

that's how it was in legion and it made 0 difference in the success rate of 95% of peoples keys

oblique garnet
#

Ofc not

strong forum
#

It also didn't hurt anybody

chilly brook
#

Anyone who complained about it wasn't even in a position where it mattered to care

strong forum
#

Exactly

#

Just lemme switch my trinkeys

ionic fern
chilly brook
#

The people who did it and were in a position to care didn't because they automatically wanted to do whatever gave them an edge anyways

#

And OPie made it so painless

strong forum
#

Except shadow priest bug abusing

#

That was true exploiting

chilly brook
strong forum
#

Gear swapping 5x a sec so you'd keep your stacks up out of combat cuz of legendary

#

So you'd be in perma ramp

minor helm
#

Sounds like jealous cause they are so skilled

oblique garnet
#

Why is it always the shadow priests who find the dumbest cheeses and abuse them the most

strong forum
#

Well that was blatant exploiting

oblique garnet
#

What is it about that class

minor helm
#

Too much spaghetti in their class code

strong forum
#

But everyone else only had the avoidance set and just trinket rotation

#

And 99%of players did neither

#

And it didn't hurt anybody except forum people's feelings

chilly brook
minor helm
#

Wow forum players are the pinnacle

chilly brook
#

never had these issues when they were a spend the orb class

minor helm

CE and AOtC are gone next week

strong forum
#

Ah well

minor helm
#

Just got posted in news

chrome falcon
#

i really need to stick to my gut feeling that i've had since legion that i'm the only person in this discord who knows what they're actually talking about

strong forum
#

Dun care about CE or aotc

minor helm
mighty valley
#

the s3 raids are gonna be a huge joke next patch so CE wouldn't really make sense

strong forum
#

I just assumed they'd stay

#

Cuz the mounts do

minor helm
#

Cause of ilvl upping they didn’t wanna keep it

oblique garnet
#

They posted long ago that ce aotc would go away with s4

strong forum
#

I skipped over that part

#

I only want the aotc mount

cinder storm
#

that's why they made jailer a joke

minor helm
#

They said it wouldn’t be fair to the players who got it in s3

oblique garnet
#

In my defense @chrome falcon i was under the impression that s4 would start now but guess i was lied to

minor helm
#

I actually lied to Late

#

And GG lied to me

Imagine caring bout cheevos tho

Yeah but i dont get color with it only access to cross server emojis

cinder storm

back when you could do unlimited international calls from msn

The objectively correct move was ventillo->teamspeak

sand pebble
#

vent -> discord

drifting fable
#

i liked ts alot

modern brook
#

And u used Skype with your normy friends who just found out what video calls were

drifting fable
#

compared to mumb/vent

modern brook
#

Yeah ventrillo sucked ass

#

Which is why it was so great

#

It acted as it's own gate keeping

oblique garnet
#

We used to use skype with irls

strong forum
#

Same

oblique garnet
#

The call quality was based on whoever was calling and since we are not a 3rd world nation everyone had good internet

#

Now everything is done on discord sadge

vestal moat
#

I was in a 'hardcore' raid once where the RL didnt want the rest of the raid to hear our tanks talking with one another so made us get on a skype with just each other as well as discord.

strong forum
#

I don't miss Skype

strong forum
#

Healers also do that

modern brook
urban portal
#

i think on halon they made everyone sit in a discord channel

#

and then also in a private duo room

#

at least thats what bdgg did

oblique garnet
#

Our first halondrus kill was great

#

No speaking whatsoever until last 10% theres couple of calls

mighty valley
#

i went teamspeak -> vent -> (teamspeak got better but we didn't care and stayed on vent) -> mumble for the last days

chrome falcon
#

yeah if you're in an actual real hardcore/bleeding edge guild exiling the tanks is reasonable

oblique garnet
#

No

chrome falcon
oblique garnet
#

Why would you exile your tanks

#

What

distant crystal
#

we had a couple nights of pulls before the timer nerf

chrome falcon
#

not literally kicking them off discord obviously

distant crystal
#

such a different fight

chrome falcon
#

but making them do all their tank-based comms alone

minor helm
#

Nah don’t just exile them send em straight to hell

oblique garnet
#

Every melee will hate you if you dont give any headsup that you are moving

minor helm
#

Yeah I hate you already for suggesting it

chrome falcon
#

i didn't say movement sir you said that

#

like tank swaps/figuring out mechanics/CD callouts

#

there's a lot of comms to do when you're very early in a tier and low geared tanking shit

#

raid doesn't need to hear any of it

modern brook
#

Smh I love that talk

oblique garnet
#

I dont agree with that at all

modern brook
#

It let's me know when the pulls are going to be ended by the dame 4 dps who refuse to learn rather than the tanks learning the fight

chrome falcon
#

well you're welcome to not agree with it but it's what all the top top top guilds do

modern brook
#

It's a good marker for when I cab start being a rager

oblique garnet
#

Discussing fights as a raid is better

#

Tanks speaking about w/e tank shit gets tuned out unless it involves movement or they call for externals

distant crystal
#

just not discussing with the other tank and winging it poorly is the move hmmNod

urban portal
#

or something like that

oblique garnet
#

Also afaik both meeres and naowh were openly communicating to the raid during wf race

distant crystal
#

that'd be a nice discord feature, some kinda multi-channel setup with diff binds for PTT in diff channels

oblique garnet
#

Halondrus might have been the exception because people couldnt do their own jobs without talking to their partner despite it being fully scripted fight

chrome falcon
#

nah idk tanking at that level in like dogshit gear absolutely requires constant communication about what CDs you have and when you're taunting

#

they're doing a lot of talking in a private channel

oblique garnet
#

It doesnt need as intense comms as people make it out to be

dawn canyon
#

274 average iirc

#

a very early skolex probably was fucky

#

but it died in 3 pulls

#

so kinda whatever

oblique garnet
#

Yeah

chrome falcon
#

last boss of this tier ok yeah sure

#

what about week 1 denathrius

#

i mean you're disagreeing with me here as if this isn't like

#

a documented thing that we know they do and they say they do

oblique garnet
#

Week 1 denathrius they were stacked too but as for a tank cn generally was a tier where you had to play properly as tank

#

You actually got to play the game

#

Then sod happened

#

Genuienly tho id like to see where they have said that tanks are just chilling together during raids

Does this actually mean anything? M skolex btw

#

yes its means your not pressing TC when u can press it

#

u still want to press it as close to CD as possible

undone verge
#

Still tho isn’t SS a higher prio off cd and even when it’s on cd I revenge for SS procs?

jagged pier
#

TC also procs SS

#

u missed over 2 outburst procs from not press TC btw

#

something like that

undone verge
#

hmm ok then ig, so SS>TC>Revenge?

jagged pier
#

no TC is still lowest prio but u still want to press it on CD

#

maybe consider is TC is off CD u IP and TC instead of just revenge

dawn canyon
#

pressing stuff>>not pressing stuff

strong forum
#

It's quite a hard thing to just outright name

#

TC only hits 10% weaker than revenge and generates rage instead of spends it

So you gotta find the right balance

guys is the first week of new season also starts at item levels capped at m+ 10?

strong forum
#

Potentially

#

But nothing that says either or the other

I reckon you're uncapped from day1

#

And raids are also open

#

Logically speaking locking ilvl makes no sense, there's no story progression, no lore, no new quests or zone

There’s no valor cap so I doubt there’s an ilvl cap

youll be waiting for your raid to try and figure out grim portent

Dausegene's dissonant halo better changed to a set item or should keep it as it is

i already have a 5 set but if i were to change it ill up the ilvl

Putting it in the CC doesn’t increase the ilvl

oh no em my set helm is LFR and this one i have is from normal so

higher ilvl

im just wondering if i should change it or keep it as it is

as long as you keep your 4set then ilvl will be better

5 set doesnt give you anything

how does that even work

not even execute

and you're ripping aggro??

My cotank has to get misdirect on cd and taunt on cd to even try to keep threat

surely just press buttons or?

Pretty much

#

Dont fall asleep at keyboard is hard

#

Hopefully next tier when they have 2x cruci itll help threat

sweet summit

surely

carmine pine

Its passive dmg at least. Even if they have empty globals itll still help

Or I could go back to playing vdh so theres no way I can rip

If you open a log of theirs

What is their cpm

whats funny is our 3rd tank that fills in when one of us is gone is even worse

hard out there for a tank looking for a guild

Then was asked to go prot after that fiasco
