Isn't HPS like a copium metric, though? 🤔

onyx vessel
#

Train trash in sang

#

Rough for sure

urban portal
#

your EHR is still going to be lower

cinder nova
#

Grimrail is gonna swing between the most fun in the rotation to the worst fucking slog depending on affixes

urban portal
#

because you are healing yourself more

#

and IP is "true healing" because you are not stealing the heals from your healer

#

and your healer cant steal that heal from you

onyx vessel
#

Basically sang it sucks

#

Anything else meh

cinder nova
#

I suppose, but on paper this doesn't seem as big as you're making it. Like I said, maybe I'm just a fucking pessimistic smoothbrain cunt.

onyx vessel
#

Tyran maybe spicy

cinder nova
#

I'll have to feel it in the new season.

urban portal
#

ive noticed that about you over the months

#

you said it not me

onyx vessel
#

Probably barely noticeable

urban portal
#

i definitely think its less than 30%

#

i dont disagree with you on that

#

but its definitely not 0

onyx vessel
#

New dungeons will be exciting for the 1st week

cinder nova
#

Yeah, like, I'll take any buff. If they gave us +1% DR I wouldn't turn it down.

onyx vessel
#

Getting to those dungeons copium

cinder nova
#

But it's not really changing anything.

urban portal
#

its like a 10% dr buff

onyx vessel
#

I have kara ring teleport mechagon oof

urban portal
#

but im not exactly the most well versed on tank theorycrafting

#

and all the good TCers are in bedge

onyx vessel
#

Probably half your group or more didnt do the entry quest for mechagon so that's critcake

urban portal
#

what does that mean

#

you actually have to do the whole mechagon stuff just to get there

#

?

onyx vessel
#

How do you get there then

#

Nope

#

Fly to it

#

Can be done

urban portal
#

whats the entry quest for then

onyx vessel
#

Takes a while if i remember

cinder nova
#

Okay, so, break down the math for me how it's 10% DR? I had like ~61% uptime on my best Sang key.

#

For IP.

drifting fable
#

theres portals in oribos to those zones

onyx vessel
#

O shit

#

Thank fuck that would be so much wasted time

cinder nova
#

You seem pretty sure about this and I'm trying to see it.

onyx vessel
#

Just thinking out loud

cinder nova
#

Oh, I meant the IP changes.

#

Talking to Hekili

urban portal
#

ish

#

im not sure

#

but its definitely not 0

#

but its not a 30% buff like some are suggesting

#

im having some discussion with some other TCers to figure it out

#

its only a 30% buff to your IP HPS if your IP is being constantly drained

#

which may be true only in high keys

onyx vessel
#

If your ip isnt draining fast pull more

urban portal
#

^

onyx vessel
#

When your healer tells you to stop pulling

#

You post healing done

#

Last week i pulled all the slimes infront of 1st boss on bursing

#

20 stacks of bursting

#

Everyone died but me

cinder nova
#

That's the funniest feeling.

#

"Bro stop pulling"

just don't die 4hed

onyx vessel
#

Most 2head comment i had from a healer

#

Was him complaining about my explosive dmg

#

The hpally

#

Actual special case

#

Healers job not mine

open gazelle
#

I stg IP used to be based off health pool in legion or something? When did it change to attack power bullshit? I remember popping last stand and getting bigger ignore pains

onyx vessel
#

Legion was the insane ignore pains

#

Now it is a shadow of its former self

#

For obvious reasons

urban portal
#

attack power is honestly not bad

#

i think stamina is kin dof cringe

open gazelle
#

% needs buffed too imo

urban portal
#

they are just functions of the same thing

#

na

#

buff the cap

#

the % could be a bit higher

onyx vessel
#

End of legion you would be bottom damage taken overall

#

Even solo tanking

#

In raid

cinder nova
#

Bro

#

Mythic Taesch

#

Just crit blocking the second whack

#

Barely moving HP

#

felt so huge

#

Made my shield so god damn hard

onyx vessel
#

Someone had a picture of crit blocking 119m or something in legion

cinder nova
#

Yeah, that's the 2nd swing from Taesch

onyx vessel
#

100% mastery build was dumb

cinder nova
#

Didn't even need mastery to do that

#

The guaranteed crit block made it so potent

onyx vessel
#

True artifact ability being balanced

#

I hated it so much

cinder nova
#

The amount of fun I derived from the fantasy of that actual man-moding of the mechanic made me feel like I needed dick veins on my shield mog

#

Because it was so cashmunny

onyx vessel
#

Me and my friends were wondering how kara will work if we will get weapon drops in kara

#

Legion had no weapon drops

open gazelle
#

Unfortunately I played mostly arms in legion but the ravager+battlecry +blade storm on m+ trash felt sooooo good

onyx vessel
#

If you look from the dungeons theres not many weapons

#

Legion was very fun as prot

open gazelle
#

Legion BIS expac

onyx vessel
#

But prot warrior peaked in bfa last 2 seasons of m+

#

Some would beg to differ

open gazelle
#

Yeah I was there for AM UF Bolster synergy I loved it

onyx vessel
#

But legion is strong

cinder nova
#

Hard pass that's lame

open gazelle
#

But I’m glad it went away

cinder nova
#

Legion FR spec was way better

#

need it back

onyx vessel
#

90% ignore pains

#

1st tier outhealing everyone easily

open gazelle
#

Everyone knows IP needs to be 75%

#

It will be strong but not overpowering

cinder nova
#

Mitigation % is really not the issue, it's the size.

onyx vessel
#

Right now its fine at 50%

cinder nova
#

55%.

onyx vessel
#

Shields too small

open gazelle
#

In DF I’m saying

cinder nova
#

Ah.

open gazelle
#

It needs to be 75%

onyx vessel
#

Not released talent tree

#

Probably still gonna be 55

open gazelle
#

It shouldn’t be

#

We are the tank that needs buffed defensive imo

onyx vessel
#

Shields too small and right now our rage gen is insane so it would be even more wasted

open gazelle
#

Avatar should be DR along with increased damage

onyx vessel
#

We dont

urban portal
#

the shield itself is big, its kind of hard to eat it

onyx vessel
#

We need a better legendary

urban portal
#

with tier

onyx vessel
#

Reprisal sucks ass but is so strong

open gazelle
#

I’m saying without tier

urban portal
#

but yeah

open gazelle
#

Reds to carry on

#

Needs to

urban portal
#

its pretty cringe that only prot has an purely offensive cd

onyx vessel
#

We arent losing tier in s4

urban portal
#

though i also find it cringe that vdh cd is 90% defensive

onyx vessel
#

Vdh bear have a press button become unkillable

urban portal
#

niuzao, wings, DRW are all both

#

incarn is also both

cinder nova
onyx vessel
#

We got nothing

urban portal
#

wings

#

wings has increased healing

cinder nova
#

It... it isn't damage anymore?

#

Massive oof.

urban portal
#

its both

#

its damage healing crit chance

#

so its both offensive and defensive

onyx vessel
#

Avatar is 30% raw dmg increase

urban portal
#

20, 30 with tier

onyx vessel
#

10% dr

#

Crack

urban portal
#

but tier also gives dr

#

but yeah ava being purly offensive outside of the rage it gives you

#

is weird

onyx vessel
#

And it gives a ignore pain

urban portal
#

without borrowed power

onyx vessel
#

Cuz of tier

#

Without tier its fine

#

Without reprisal

lime plaza
#

How big of a change is this new IP?

cinder nova
#

Not very, but it's a buff..? Sorta?

urban portal
#

to be determined

#

the main theorycrafter says its pretty big

forest meadow
urban portal
#

its definitely at least couple hundred HPS

#

and yeah VDH can die during meta for sure

#

but thats only very high fort

forest meadow
#

And nizhao is "defensive", but it's used offensively, and you basically try to take more damage during it, so it's like the opposite of defensive basically

onyx vessel
#

Yeah nizhao is pure offense

urban portal
#

vs melees

#

theres literally nothign you can do about that

#

you can play as bad as you want to take more damage

#

but 25% of the dam is still sucked in by niuzao

forest meadow
#

True. It comes out to more like 22%
, but yeah true.

sand pebble
#

Codex bis for s4 for increased stam for bigger ip?

slim zinc
#

Well it would make your ips smaller, just raise the cap by a tiny bit

static aspen
#

Why press ip when you can dps. If you die its always healers fault

graceful kite
sand pebble
#

Nf also for increased hp stacks!

woven laurel
#

so is the 30% absorption buff added to the 55% reduced dmg taken or the total damage reduced value?

tough inlet
#

total damage reduced value, if i read the pinned message right

woven laurel
#

ok cool thanks

topaz field
#

am i reading it wrong or doesnt the ip change tell how much the cap is?

ionic fern
#

30 percent max hp

topaz field
#

decent

#

thank you

#

with the affix of season 4 and ppl running haste 90 % (thats what i assume at least) is there even a point in going for ows?

#

or will i play matrix/aegis for higher keys?

jagged pier
#

u can get all 3

topaz field
#

is there nothing else we aim for?

#

i was more looking at the vendor tbh

#

stone legion might also be decent

chilly brook
#

vers, especially that small amount is poop compared to OWS

topaz field
#

but what does the affix do? infinite haste right?

jagged pier
#

the vendor only sells trinkets and weps u have far more chances to get wep and shield u can upgrade than trinkets

topaz field
#

i think ows is int

tough inlet
#

OWS is str

chilly brook
#

OWS is literally the most over stat budget item in the world

jagged pier
#

again i dont know how many times we have to say it

#

there is no cap

#

on haste

#

u want as much as possible

chilly brook
#

you use OWS

#

and if you really want to go crazy with stats

#

that means you're opened to stacking other stats much easier

#

simply because OWS is so much haste

topaz field
#

ye will have to see whether aegis is necessary to live the highest keys or if i get away with matrix ows

#

thank you guys

jagged pier
#

for highest keys mostly likely its needed

#

as its an 8 second immune

chilly brook
#

I mean no point in buying aegis either tbh

jagged pier
#

and its probably gunna be bis in S1 of DF

chilly brook
#

it's such an easy boss to kill

jagged pier
chilly brook
jagged pier
#

if they were gunna nerf it they would have done it now

tough inlet
#

Anyone knows if the questline for the tokens is separated, so you get one at a time or if we get those 3 tokens at once at the end?

ionic fern
#

One at a time afaik

tough inlet
#

thanks

topaz field
#

3 at a time xD imagine blizzard not holding back loot

tough inlet
#

3 at a time would have been after 6 weeks 😉

stuck lava
#

on highest keys u will most likely need double on use anyways, sigil + aegis perhaps, as necro sigil is very strong

jagged pier
#

sigil is aweful for keys

stuck lava
#

no its not

#

its extremly strong

jagged pier
#

yes it is

stuck lava
#

well ur wrong sir

jagged pier
#

im not

stuck lava
#

guess we are done here then

topaz field
#

sigil is not awful when you are coordinated but its for sure not the best trinket on a tank

stuck lava
#

if u get hit by a SD Sentinel Bleed on Fort 27 or 28 and dont have SW or Sigil or Aegis/Scale rdy u ded son

topaz field
#

i press dwarf then

#

but ye sure

stuck lava
#

well u can dwarf one

#

what about the other 2 or 3

#

until its dead^^

topaz field
#

no problem

#

u communicate

#

with your heal

#

and its super doable

#

not that hard on prot tbh

#

2nd i parry

#

ez pz

#

i dont see where sigil has any good use for that

#

you must be trolling

#

based on your argumentation u can only pull sentinel every 5 minutes then

#

which makes a horrible route

stuck lava
#

they are usually that far away, and if you think its NP u havent done very high keys i guess. But yeah im trolling

topaz field
#

well im a brew on high keys

#

i just stand still and press my buttons

uncut notch
stuck lava
#

so ur talking about it beeing np on prot, while not playing prot on high keys

topaz field
#

if only i wouldnt have to play reprisal i would enjoy prot a lot

stuck lava
#

what are we talking about then

topaz field
#

ah bro dont get me wrong

spiral crypt
#

like 10 ppl timed fort 27 or higher on prot in the world xD

topaz field
#

i played 24 s 25s on prot

#

but im just bad at it

#

so i think its super fine

stuck lava
topaz field
#

with better management by me

#

one troll is running sigil hes the same not running ashen juggernaut get me out

strong forum
#

So... 15% DR on 5min CD is good in keys?

topaz field
#

he timed it in 27 he is right

#

im getting my sigil right now guys see you later

sand pebble
#

Get it next week and upgrade it

#

Well in 4 weeks

brazen lion
#

i need sigil now to be good soz

strong forum
#

If you had made any argument for the offensive power of sigil, sure then yes its good if you can absolutely plan around it

sand pebble
#

Sigil is good in execute phase so you get 15% dr and 30% damage with the additional dr allowing for less rahe soent on mitigation - does that work?

strong forum
#

But trying to invent a niche scenario where you don't have any CDs and then say that the 15% DR on a 5min CD is good...

#

Is a bit far fetched

sand pebble
#

Also - i better stop shit posting things before i get boited

stuck lava
#

my point is that double on use is almost required, because shildwall + 1 onuse is usually not enough, and sigil is a very powerful def CD on necrolord. its not a niche scenario sad to say

strong forum
#

Double on use is almost required yet no skilled tank plays it besides vdh

#

And there are people debating not even using 1 on use cuz you can barely find use in it

#

🤔

#

But go off

jagged pier
#

if your saving sigil for a bleed from a sentiel why not just use demo its more dr and a shorter cd?

topaz field
#

hes not allowed to bring up any offensive argument

#

couz hes not running ashen juggernaut

#

complete troll

stuck lava
#

i was running Show the Force this week because of necrotic and kiting, in fort AJ is at least less good

sand pebble
#

Wait - aj in sd?

jagged pier
#

aj always

strong forum
#

Sof is not super terrible for threat, but since the Execute buff, AJ, especially in high keys is nuts

#

This week is kinda w/e

stuck lava
#

puhh, i guess there is really no point arguing with you, you are all experts running the 30 keys

strong forum
#

So I wouldn't judge anything

topaz field
#

ye plz cry

#

baby

stuck lava
#

alot of the time you cant use execute in trashpacks because u need every ip

jagged pier
#

i mean Nomes running 25s with no healers

#

so take from that what u will

#

🤷

stuck lava
strong forum
#

What dps

jagged pier
#

like all season dude

#

no just this week

topaz field
#

healer is key this week

jagged pier
#

man just pushs with tanks

strong forum
#

I've not had a healer in months

topaz field
#

thats why you can run 27s

strong forum
topaz field
#

couz u have a good healer

#

who tracks your stacks

#

and has an idea how bad necrotic is for tanks

strong forum
#

Necrotic shouldn't be an issue at all

#

It's just annoying to reset stacks

topaz field
#

ye in sd necrotic is irrelevant

#

especially with dwarf

strong forum
#

I always forget necrotic is a thing

#

Until I have 45 stacks

#

Then I press Dorf and I'm fine again

#

Like lmao

stuck lava
#

its crazy to me that you talk and advice people about high keys, while ignoring and laughing about someone who did them. with alot of trial and error. Im no expert for sure, but for example while AJ is alot better dps wise, ur own dps usually doesnt matter much, u just have to live. and 25 keys you can probably run without any def trinkets at all, or without healer for that matter

#

but it gets alot harder

topaz field
#

nobody was advising you in any way

#

you were making the statement that sigil is necessary

#

to live for high keys which is completly wrong

stuck lava
#

no i didnt i said that double on use is, and sigil is a viable one

topaz field
#

ye thats still wrong

#

it makes it easier

jagged pier
#

well going by subcreation which does take into account ppl running keys literally no one is using sigil

topaz field
#

ye exactly

jagged pier
#

they are using aegis, scale, soleash, phial and codex(which is wrong)

topaz field
#

i dont see a reason at all to ever play sigil on tank

jagged pier
#

but ppl dont want to listen to advice thats fine you do you

#

but sigil is bad in keys it just is

topaz field
#

sigil is made for dps classes and huge pulls

#

and to come up with your juice

#

your tank dps

#

with sigil is completely irrelevant

#

if a ww is oing 200k

silk pine
#

Well I agree that Sigil makes u way tankier and with a 3 min cd it would be probably good but 5min is way to long

jagged pier
#

like sigil is great in raid

#

its amazing there

#

thats its niche

topaz field
#

sigil on tank rlly only is viable for st dmg

jagged pier
#

in keys its just not good unless u gunna do an uber pull and wanna boost dps

#

its a 15% DR on a 5 min cd

silk pine
jagged pier
#

u get 5 demos in in that time which is more DR in itself alone

topaz field
#

its crap because its so inconsistent

#

and high keys is all about consistency

stuck lava
#

usually every dungeon has 2-3 very hard pulls for you, for one reason or another. and i tell you sigil is great for them. ofc u you can use whatever you want. but it is a very viable option

jagged pier
#

but scale and aegis will deal with those pulls and are better for those pulls and the rest of the dungeon as u can use them more often

#

even soleash or ows is better

#

because over a key youll get more mitigation through the haste they give u

#

than like the total minuteish u get of sigil buff through a key

silk pine
cobalt seal
stuck lava
jagged pier
#

i mean also this whole conversation has talked like tanks are on their own in dungeons when u can use other ppls cds to deal with things, like healer externals havent been mentioned at all which you 100% should be using

cobalt seal
#

BSS is shit

silk pine
cobalt seal
#

it is

jagged pier
#

i mean it is

cobalt seal
#

imagine a shield every 2m

jagged pier
#

i would still say it does more than sigil tho because u can use it more

cobalt seal
#

how bad could it be lol

silk pine
cobalt seal
silk pine
#

aegis has 30 lower cd but cant help when u are low on health

#

scale can help you

cobalt seal
jagged pier
#

it literally is an immune to damage

#

of course it can help u at low hp

topaz field
#

it even ignores necrotic

cobalt seal
#

after codex. BSS is the most overrated trinket of SL

jagged pier
#

codex :residentsleeper:

cobalt seal

for tanks*

stuck lava

BSS is better in Tyr weeks if you want/need to mitigate bigger hits

silk pine

no your not using scale in raid?

jagged pier
#

well yer if u have an oh shit moment u are playing wrong

brittle owl
#

accounting for oh shit moments and having a save can be relevant when going into uknown territory peepoHappy

silk pine
#

So in high keys where Naowh or Pika dies they plays wrong?

brittle owl
#

can't just blanket statement like that

#

also

#

can't just namedrop and expect it to validate your argument

silk pine
#

Sure I can

jagged pier
#

well from what i save as plka he ither gets one shot or dies over a long period of time which

#

the one shot he played incorrectly or his party did

#

no inturpts not giving cds etc

#

the long death is fine and what i'd expect to see

brittle owl

also like

that most people cc

til 1st boss

topaz field
#

obviously his teammates could not use their kicks or boss 2 wouldnt go through so i thinks it was a realistic scenario i described to u

static aspen
#

I really wana play dk, but im always so bad at edging

silk pine
#

and u are playing warrior? 😄

#

ups my bad misread edging

static aspen
#

Isn't warrior not that edging in hp spikes than dk?

topaz field
#

prot war is a lot harder to play than dk

#

forget about their dmg income profile

#

prot doesnt have a death strike

#

if u understand how your tank works im telling u dk is 10 times more forgiving

ionic fern
#

Just play IV.

#

Are we now more forgiving in your head?

topaz field
#

did u read all 4 sentences of me?

#

and put them together in your head?

#

to have a conclusion what i was expressing

ionic fern
#

No, but then again it doesn't really look like that you're reading what you're typing.

#

So here we are.

topaz field
#

if somebody is telling me that dk is harder to play than prot warrior

#

yes sure xD

ionic fern

😂
I got no idea

How you got that

out of my sentence

But you do you buddy.

i wasnt talking to u in first place

ionic fern

Oh imagine

It's a PUBLIC chyannel

I'm answering to your illogical takes. 🙂

u wouldnt do that in public would u

sick sentinel

i was telling the person that dk is so more forgiving than prot

if u played incorrectly the last few seconds

bart how much % of max hp will count towards the new ip cap, will nf+codex be bis due to increased hp levels AND will it replace bdk as meta comp for m+?

Dk and warrior both have different type of dealing with dmg they take

World of Warcraft Forums

Hello everyone. We made the following clarifications to the update notes: CLASSES WARRIOR PROTECTION Ignore Pain’s absorption increased by 30%, and the absorption cap is now 30% of maximum Health (was twice the Ignore Pain absorb value). ITEMS AND REWARDS GREAT VAULT RAID REWARDS All 3 Shadowlands Raid rewards will be available...

drifting socket

Thank you brudda

#

pretty sizeable buff to IP

cursive bridge

It’s not bad, I’ll take it

drifting socket

60-70% increase on ignore pain shielding for me at least

strong forum
#

Na it's 30%

drifting socket

also means stamina trinkets aren't terrible

It does

Stop

Stop

It's not godlike all of a sudden.

Getting 1% more HP doesn't make IP any better

You won't be stacking STM trinkets

Or STM pots

Nothing changes

Shield is bigger, ggwp.

Yeah more stam just increases the cap which is eh

Yeah I wasn't trying to say we should stack stamina

cursive bridge

The per press increase is nice though

drifting socket

I was saying that we get more value out of stamina

than we did previously

You get about 3% more value

Okay 3% sorry

3%? yuge

The only way to generate more rage is? More haste?

strong forum

Pressing alot of buttons

Not overcapping rage, prioritising gaining rage

Abusing the fuck out of reprisal

Using outbursts primarily on SS

Keeping up Banner 100%

Codex is alright for bdk on 29+

Codex is pretty nice

drifting socket
#

just to clarify with the patch notes, it's a 30% buff to the initial ignore pain shield and now the max cap is 30% of your max HP

Veng dh hp spikes a lot

Solid save Jakey.

I don't chain them.

And the new IP cap is also ~30% larger than currently

ionic fern

I want my Revenge procs.

strong forum
#

If you intervene out-charge back in

#

You lose 50% of the intervened reprisal

#

2sec off of SB, and 1 revenge proc

#

The traveltime is what makes you lose too much for it to be good

#

You basically get 6sec of SB for the cost for 8sec of SB

hoary bough

ah, how do you get that 2nd charge then if your pack is tightly stacked? do you shockwave + run for a charge?
