So yeah kinda like shorting bit band doing 1.1% lol

sand pebble
#

im unsure how to compare the increased parry = more revenge though

cursive bridge
#

Memes only

sick sentinel
#

is that the 91% increase thing

#

some m+ item buffed by 91% i think i want to sag it was shield mechagon

sand pebble
#

yeah bracers were buffed 100%

#

still dogshit and will put unity on there and convert these in catalyst

#

but low key fun

sick sentinel
#

cuz it was an absorbs is waphat i remember cuz soneone gere said about its defebsive value is still terrible cuz its long cd once it goes off like 45 seconds and its defensive value which is mostly nill

sand pebble
#

the bracer is 30sec cd

#

i macroed it to shield slam

sick sentinel
#

might be better than real shock wave on bosses cuz cd and dmg

#

im wondering if there is a gotcha gimmick to it like you have to wait the full 6 seconds cancelling may not give effect

warm plinth
#

The shield got buffed by like 90% or something as well. Still bad yep

sand pebble
shut summit
#

Ghostly Philanthropist will no longer cast Throw Coin.

Are you guys just running reprisal on UP kara?

#

Seismic seems kinda useless with target counts

sweet summit
#

when are they adding an actual indicator to spear cast on last boss grimrail danderson

#

i am too blind for that shit

shut summit

#

Idk its an arrow

sweet summit
#

no shot

dreamy wedge
#

Looked at the mechagon shield, at 304 it's like...12.3k absorbed. That didn't sound terrible until I realized that's like...an ignore pain cast, on a 1 ppm proc.

sand pebble
#

pre buff ip

dreamy wedge
#

Basically. The damage is almost 2k which is actually pretty high, so I guess maybe if you could protect the absorb with something like Aegis? Still sounds meh

oblique garnet

#

I thought Ignore Pain can stack up to 100% of our health now?

urban portal
pallid hollow
#

cringe.

toxic pewter
#

its fine at 30%

pallid quiver
#

it's still just a consume rage button

we just happen to take slightly less damage now

toxic pewter
#

if it was 100% it would be way op

chrome falcon
#

you can really tell the m+ team is just a bunch of different people these days

#

we spent HALF OF LEGION dying to throw coin

#

but this time it was kind of rough on tyrannical and they just

#

yeet that shit into the SUN

pallid quiver
#

damn, when you said that i thought they dropped the damage or something

#

nah

#

shit's just banned

chrome falcon
#

ghostly philanthropists broke as hell man

#

gotta get they money up

pallid quiver
#

they invested too much into their community

chrome falcon
#

and cinderseers also banned from casting lava wreath

#

was it really that annoying

pallid quiver
#

i haven't noticed any issues with lava wreath

#

but then again, i ran depot, uh, once, and that's my only M+ this season so far

chrome falcon
#

well

#

we wouldn't notice issues with lava wreath

#

considering it doesn't target melee or tanks

pallid quiver
#

i was trying to keep an eye on the party's HP since i got told to DPS when i queued as tank ( 🙂 ) to get an idea how bad the dungeon was

#

so at least in terms of HP go down i didn't notice anything

until lightning breath

worn bear
#

flame wreath dam was real tough from what little i saw before

#

lock had a rough time on a 16

chrome falcon
#

nah it doesn't do much damage luerce but it silences them for up to 12 seconds until they spread out

#

so i guess if you have 2+ ranged it's giga fucked mechanic

#

30% flame wreath nerf is a lot

#

so that'll help

pallid quiver
#

damn, imagine getting silenced and losing access to your damage abilities

#

didn't silences used to stop t clap for whatever reason or am i getting old

oblique garnet
#

@sweet summit Time to do high keys log in

chrome falcon
#

yeah tclap used to count as a spell for those purposes

#

specifically a nature spell

sweet summit
pallid quiver
#

Okay, cool, I am remembering right

oblique garnet
chrome falcon
#

unless we stand in 4 successive casts of shrapnel blast

#

i am scared of that mechanic on fort sang

pallid quiver
#

Garrote nerfs will also be pretty convenient overall, I wager

chrome falcon
#

maybe

dreamy wedge
#

I mean he spreads garrote pretty damn fast to the party already

pallid quiver
#

I wager it's for routing purposes

dreamy wedge
#

I feel like it's just gonna mean 1 person at a time doesn't have it by the end or smth like that

chrome falcon
#

i might be remembering wrong but i THINK moroes will always try to garotte someone with the fewst stacks

pallid quiver
#

so you don't need to super fuss over it in a pug

chrome falcon
#

so i think everyones should reset after a minute

#

but it's still gonna suck

pallid quiver
#

Pretty sure you're right on that

oblique garnet
#

Can you still intervene it ?

chrome falcon
#

haven't tried

#

only done one lower kara

shut summit
#

cant intervene

chrome falcon
#

and will continue to only do one per week

shut summit
#

he recasts it every 20secs

chrome falcon
shut summit
#

and ya goes after people with no debuff first, starting with healer

oblique garnet
#

I saw you were gaming Sense

#

Big 26

shut summit
#

so should only be 3-4 dots out at a time i think

dreamy wedge
#

Is Fusion Hacker any good? I know no stats but they just buffed the proc damage

pallid quiver
#

moroes gotta pump them damage meters, he ain't got time to "focus prio targets" or some nerd jazz

chrome falcon
#

fusion hacker is fine on ST but not good aoe

waxen orbit
#

New nerfs but spear throwers in Iron Docks are still unblockable

#

55k damage a hurl

pallid quiver

magical physical attacks, i call 'em

waxen orbit
#

Unnerfed

pallid quiver
#

ranged attacks

waxen orbit
#

Love to see it

dreamy wedge
#

Funnily we're supposed to be able to block ranged attacks but not those ones

chrome falcon
#

yeah

#

the change to let us block ranged attacks wasn't a change to block

#

they just made any new future ranged attacks have the "blockable" tag

#

but all the only ones still pierce

pallid hollow
#

holy spell reflect batman

dreamy wedge
#

So in other words they coded in like, the worst way they could've lol

pallid hollow
#

i missed 2 cast because dps interupt last second

warm plinth
#

Hey @oblique garnet did you hear? Prot warriors get to survive Lower Karazhan next week

pallid quiver
#

With the base infrastructure, it makes sense, and old content isn't particularly a focus of this game until recently, so I don't blame them for it

oblique garnet
#

Idk pulled pack by pack in lower kara had 0 issues with anything on a 17

warm plinth
#

Fortified throw coins were gonna be scary

oblique garnet
#

I dont even know where the mobs are that did them

warm plinth
#

unblockable projectiles 😱

oblique garnet
#

Is it in front of the council boss?

warm plinth
#

No, on the way to opera

oblique garnet
warm plinth
#

The ones that do the swirlies on the ground

dreamy wedge
#

You've been able to block ranged attacks since like Wrath (or earlier, can't remember), it makes less sense for attacks to go through block than for them to ignore it

warm plinth
#

They also do a throw coin cast that bypasses armor and is unblockable

warm plinth
#

Yeah it hasn't been since wrath XD

oblique garnet
#

Throw Rock

chrome falcon
#

the funniest part of how it took 14 years to be able to block arrows, and how we still can't block some

#

is that the icon

warm plinth
#

It was a change in BFA so that prot warriors could actually tank Tol Dagor

chrome falcon
#

for shield block

#

IS LITERALLY ARROWS BOUNCING OFF A SHIELD

oblique garnet
#

Throw Wrench was another banger

warm plinth
#

Yeah, though at least you could LoS that one XD

oblique garnet
#

S1 keys in bfa were rough

warm plinth
#

1-time cast

chrome falcon
#

do you guys remember throw ore

#

from the first trash packs in BRF

oblique garnet
warm plinth
#

Didn't do WoD shit at all so no deswind

chrome falcon
#

my god dude we're so hard countered by random plebs who have a good throwing arm

oblique garnet
#

What can you do when they are pitching curveballs past your shield with old spaghetti coding

chrome falcon
#

block an arrow? nope that sounds way too hard

dreamy wedge
#

Literally on the Wrath pre-patch PTR atm; you used to be able to shield block against hunters in PvP to prevent getting murdered (less). If we couldn't block ranged attacks after wrath they changed it again later

chrome falcon
#

block aggramar's ultimate technique? no problem boss i got you

#

nah the point zalin is that no mob abilities were actually coded as "ranged attacks"

#

they were spells that did physical damage

oblique garnet
#

^

chrome falcon
#

the only things that actually counted as ranged attacks were hunter autos

oblique garnet
#

Yes you could block in PVP

#

But just not in pve

dreamy wedge
chrome falcon
#

it just never really mattered until m+

#

because stuff in raids never did that

#

and that was the only pve content in the game

#

but for some reason for all of legion they just let us get murdered by every fucker with a bow, rock, or pocket change

#

BRH archers

warm plinth
#

Though tbf the BRH archers were random target shoots were they not

#

I distinctly recall melee DPS having to los around corners to not get 1-shot

dreamy wedge
#

A lot of ranged mobs like that are

chrome falcon
#

true maybe i'm thinking of different archers

pallid hollow
#

just line of sight

#

4head

#

Almost all range mob ignore aggro yes, Neltharion rock thrower melting cloth wearer

M+ Mechagon can't drop the punchcards, right?

sweet summit
#

nop

dreamy wedge
#

snaps finger darn. Ilvl 304 lazer beam device?

#

Woulda been funny

sweet summit
#

recal >>>>

chrome falcon
#

it would have to be pretty impressively broken to beat 9.1 trinkets

#

but honestly laser punchcard could probably do it

dreamy wedge
#

Laser punch card was insane, they had to nerf it what, 3 times?

chrome falcon
#

yep

sweet summit
#

was only broken when you could use abilities during it tbh

chrome falcon
#

once to nerf the ability to do other stuff while channelling, then a damage nerf, then another damage nerf

dreamy wedge
chrome falcon
#

idk erga people used that shit on nyalotha wf prog for tanks and healers i think

#

it was kinda nuts

sand pebble
#

has anyone tested what kind of fun we can have with the hijack circut in mecha m+?

#

3 mins of a super buffed fort mob

So you just get a "normal mythic" mob

Those GD nerfs were def needed

Was expecting this to happen but surprised so soon

#

"Moroes’ Garrote duration reduced to 1 minute (was permanent)"

vernal vale
#

I'm a bad

#

No Sire kill for me

warm plinth
#

I think moroes nerf means only like 3 people will have bleed at once?

toxic pewter
#

I couldn’t kill sire either

#

Tried many times but every pug failed

shut summit
#

20sec between casts

vernal vale
#

So anyone good at Sims know about how much more they need to buff the mechagon bracers before they are worth our time?

sand pebble
#

i been meming with them and id say about another 500% - the def isnt noticable and the damage is a joke

mighty valley
#

God it's so sad when you forget to pick haste at the start

I always thought they where cool and I got a lower ilvl drop this week just not worth thr Valor based on how menial the on use is.

yeah I was two packs in before I realize

so is that the only person who casted that ability? the lava wreath

#

or does it just cut down on them

I believe so

well god damn

goodbye obnoxious silence

Which just makes it so much easier.

queen hemlock

eye of command is good?

#

oh damn sack sure

ripe copper
#

I am losing threat in AOE pulls how many globals on avg you guys spend on Revenge when the pull starts.

sweet summit
#

usually like 2-3 revenges then start prioing SS but still slapping revenge

#

you could use outburst on TC for additional AoE threat at the start of a pull, and also remember you can intervene a dps if they pull aggro and you also have challenging shout in dire situations

sweet summit
# queen hemlock eye of command is good?

forgot to add to this
it's really good when you can maintain stacks on it, but if you're constantly target swapping auto attack targets it quickly loses a lot of value

queen hemlock
#

oke will consider it thanks, thought crit is abit of a waste

sweet summit
#

crit is really good for damage and adds a bit of defensive value through increased parry chance

lofty widget
#

Yea lol

vestal moat
#

Any tips for proccing the attack enemy from behind ring?

sweet summit

if you're in that 270 degree arc yea

summer pelican
zealous willow

if ur dps is kiling and slowing/stun the forks

u wont get that big dmg

but if they let the dinner time to be cast u get wrekt with shield wall

jagged pier
zealous willow
#

actualy i think they should nerf more things

#

im sure like in 1-2 weeks more nerfs will come

#

iron docs timer is rly slim

#

we need like 1-2 min more

#

for example

jagged pier
#

Iron docks timer isnt slim at all

#

I dont know where these nerfs are comig from havent been in any trouble anywhere but 🤷 ill take them

brittle owl
#

9/10 times reason why people struggle with shit is a skill issue

#

blizz very rarely overtunes stuff

#

more often than not they undertune

zealous willow
#

if u watch

#

27 keys u will see that

#

timer is slim

#

i dont even talk from my prespective

brittle owl
#

why is that relevant to anything

#

do you do 27 keys

jagged pier
#

Okay its 27 week one

lofty widget
#

Timer is always gonna be slim in top keys

jagged pier
#

Of course its tight

#

Ppl dont have the gear

#

What an absoultly dumb statement

lofty widget
#

If they added 2 mins timer would just be tight in 29s instead

zealous willow
#

then why they increased timer on de other side and hoa

#

if they are perfect ?

#

i wont argue

brittle owl
#

because people like you cry, generally speaking

zealous willow
#

time will show

#

and i will pin it here when they do it

jagged pier
#

They oncreased hoa and dos timer because ppl were struggling in normal keys to time

#

Not 27s

zealous willow
#

have u done iron docs 20?

jagged pier
#

Usually at this point in a season ppl arent even doing 27s

#

No i 3 chested a 16 i believe

zealous willow
#

90% of the ppl dont even know that u can bomb trash using cannons

#

i hope ur right

#

for me it feels like slim timer

jagged pier
#

Yer most ppl dont know mechanics for any dungeon because they joined this exapnsion

brittle owl
#

i mean

#

people who played legion, even at a higher level, don't know mechanics cause you cheesed them

#

even a ring such as sire? damn ok

you always want 4set regardless of ilvl and stats

#

can you deflect dent armour in kara with spell reflect?

#

i feel like sometimes when i use it

#

it deflects, other times it doesnt

#

unless im just actually parrying it with rng

#

sheet says blockable but im not sure what it must be proccing on otherwise

#

cos i've definitely been "dented" with it up

Blockable just means block will reduce the damage it does

uneven wagon
#

is it just me or is it really easy to find a group as a tank but way harder to find a guild

#

most active guilds already have 2 tanks cus you can't really raid without them

drifting fable
#

nah thats pretty much it

#

only 2 spots

zealous willow
#

most serious guilds tanks are guildmaster + close fr officer or 2 officers

#

its hard to find a good guild with tank , cus its important role for raids progress and mostly ppl make tanks officers or even gm himself is tank

uneven wagon
#

rip

#

the only solution is to be better than the current tanks and replace them wicked

drifting fable
#

or start your own guild okayge

zealous willow
#

from my exp when i played healer main it was ez to perform and replace healers , cus ppl rly hate bad healers and its weak spot in guilds

#

for tanks i cant say

vernal vale
#

What guilds classify as underpreforming is normally way higher than it should be as well because as mentioned a lot of the time it's the GM or an officer in guild.

You see the dungeon nerf @chrome falcon ?

chrome falcon
#

Yup

#

They didn’t nerf that ability for all of legion

#

And now they did it in literally a week

#

Lmao

vernal vale
#

I was laughing so hard that it's just gone now.

drifting fable

didnt even nerf it man lol

just got rid of it

yeah not complaining

zealous willow

they said its fun season , so probably more nerfs are coming , they just want to keep ppl playing till new expansion

right ?

Rolled people over in legion all the time. Now it's too much and let's gut it to make that trash a face roll.

“fixed” we dont know if they intend to scale it up

Just whack scaling

i will keep it in my bag and wait 😦

vernal vale
#

Hell they buffed mechagon shit but not enough to make most of it compelling at all

#

I have the bracers at a 268 ilvl from doing a lower run with my spouse and I was going to just vendor them but they might buff them to relevance.... with another 300-500٪ buff

#

Shield is still garbage bait at 1ppm and an absorb that's still much to small to last any amount of time.

I thought all of them were fun

tarra takes like 15 minutes for first pull

Wasn’t taragru like a 4-5 min fight?

Damn really

#

and people wanna optmize powers for no reason

viral flume
#

SoD was recent enough that most people will remember mechanics I assume so with that sense it'll be easier, but generally alot of people hate SoD so there will be less runs vs cn which is hands down the favored raid this expansion

zealous willow
#

i dont like this raid feels depresing inside , ugly , bad bosses and taking long fights

toxic pewter
#

Is there a lot of trash mobs

viral flume
#

Lol

#

It's not alot of trash like sepulcher

toxic pewter
#

Ok

#

The raid overall was gloomy but I think the reason people hate it sooo much was because we dealt with it for almost a year

#

Throw coin should have just been made physical and blockable/dodgeable

undone verge
#

The raid wasn’t very good, but I didn’t think it was horrible

viral flume

Imo

undone verge
#

What they really need to do is make some of the mechanics on huntsman more visible

viral flume

Like nathria huntsman?

undone verge

That makes more sense

Also the horses charge being a cone makes no sense

#

can someone dm me where the spell reflect guide goes to please. url shorteners are blocked for me right now

undone verge
#

Also on moroes, does the cc break randomly for anyone else, or does it not show up under cc breaks

#

Cause I’ve had multiple groups ruined cause moroes guests just randomly breaks cc

zealous willow
#

he release them at 60% hp

plain vapor
#

or just paste it in here

undone verge
#

But like before that

#

Like this is happening it 70-80%

zealous willow
#

nah , for me not

undone verge
#

Does the ghost trap being broken not appear under cc breaks then?

#

Cause it’s either them randomly breaking or it doesn’t appear there and some hunter is tab targeting them

plain vapor
#

probably, the ghost trap doesnt last for that long either i dont think too

plain vapor
#

thank you

zealous willow
#

the trap must be used right before pull

#

so u can have time to clear them 1 by 1

undone verge
#

I know it’s a minute, but this is still like 20-30 seconds into the pull

drifting fable
#

you can use long cc too

undone verge
#

Idk it’s weird

#

I’m guessing it’s probably some dumbass ranged dps

#

Cause it only happens in some groups

zealous willow
#

if u have hunter why u guess ? keks

#

have u guys seen affly warlock

#

i had 1 recently doing rly good and i think the way they nerf destro , affly might be playable soon

south zealot
#

havent seen an aff lock in any key at all since s2

drifting fable

nerfing destro does not affect the playability of aff lol

south zealot
#

yeah destro is still fine

south bone
south zealot
#

only does like 33k it doesnt do that mich

drifting fable
#

more that one does not correlate to the other

south bone
#

Destro might be in a bad place but the survival nerfs might crank

south zealot
#

i always throw but its def not that good

south bone
#

The fact that the CD is so long isn’t great

#

But nice to use once

chrome falcon
#

Shattering into outburst SS does a huge chunk of dam to shield if you can set it up

south bone
#

Particularly if it’s one of the pulls where he’s in a big pack

silver fable

quick question: can you eat the bleed on moroes like you could with the boss in SoA?

#

with intervene*

south zealot

surv nerfs are negligible

chrome falcon

You could in legion

south bone

Yes

chrome falcon

Idk if you can anymore

No harm in trying

He always does it on someone without stacks

And starts on the healer

I did the other day but a lot of things right now seem inconsistent

Survival is still going to be fine. We lost 4% AoE damage, but gained 2.1% ST damage.

bursting 140k instead of 148k smh dandy

survival is less ridiculous than destro

also this is the first time ever that survival is viable

In regards to the guild search, I am the GM of my guild and the main tank. My raid roster has been obliterated because of lack of content and when New World came out. I literally fill a raid every Sunday with PUGs and Real ID friends. I would Real ID players that you get along with and join their raids/mythic+ until you find a guild. My guild didn't get AotC for the first time since SoO. Not because we didn't kill heroic Jailer but because I didn't have enough guildies in the raid for it to count. I am sure there are a lot of guild in the same spot as mine and I have many PUGs that join every Sunday.

chrome falcon
#

^ this is good advice

#

Networking is the best way to find a spot as a tank

#

Or just accept that you have to join as dps and prove you can tank in keys

#

And then maybe one of the guilds tanks wants to reroll or quit and you take their spot

#

90% of good guild tanks are either officers or long term members

#

You can’t really just apply to get that spot

#

Or just chad up and make your own guild

jagged pier
#

Tbh right now there is a massive shortage of players

#

Like theres more guilds look for tanks now than i have ever seen

#

Thats how i found my new one

hazy edge
#

healed for the raid, but tanked all the keys. Tanks quit after we got CE in SoD and I was the first person they asked to replace them.

pale roost
#

how are prot warrior in s4 =)? was thinking of trying it out

sweet summit
#

very strong

royal lodge
#

I'm doing well. I PUG a lot of my keys, so trying to break the stigma against warriors is some times annoying. I've timed up to a +17 the first week. I couldn't do that in the last tier.

pale roost
#

is it worth starting with necro at start. should say i have decent gear atlwast with 4set. just never played the spec alot. if that matters

#

What my guild did is we turned our fun raid where we cleared normal into a recruiting event where we pugged 3-8 people every week that were interesting in a new group to raid with

#

Worked pretty well, we have over 20 people right now for raid, but the main issue is most of them def aren’t mythic raiders. So heroic seems to be in our future

drifting fable
#

impressive tbh

sweet summit
#

thanks

vernal vale
undone verge
#

Yeah, tis the plan

#

I originally joined this guild in nyalotha cause they were super close to CE

#

Then I took a break and came back and the guild had split and now we can barely clear a few bosses into mythic

#

So I was scammed

oblique garnet
undone verge
#

But I like the ppl in the guild, and CE isn’t something I need so Ima stick with them and try to get back to that level

#

Problem is it’s super hard to get ppl to improve when they barely want to show up in the first place

#

So hopefully come DF ppl are more motivated

sweet summit

Or is it because dragonflight talent reveal ratge

The meme is people swapping to prot from other tanks

modern brook
#

Ce isn't hard but the idea that anyone can do it is flat wrong. People absolutely suck at world of warcraft. Literal dog water. Getting ce requires you to play your role correctly. That's literally it. And finding 20 people to do that and mechanics at the same time is hard.

face tanking +20 workshop dog vent flames with just DS+SR+IP Spam wicked

seismic is bugged yea

chrome falcon

why wouldn't i

#

i need to have like 30 seconds left on banner after that dog to keep it up for the next pack

#

can't do that by hiding behind a box like a lil baby

sweet summit
#

cos u can hit the boss and still have the "los" buff

chrome falcon

but if i do that

#

the dps will try to do it too

and they'll fuck it up and die

vernal vale

Hahahaba

Banner is all important

modern brook

I use thay mechanic as an excuse to eat chips

plus it makes the rest of the group say "wow chad prot warrior wtf" at the end of the key

how can i maximize banner uptime

chrome falcon

generate a bunch of rage

and spend it

south zealot

i always drop it between pulls

median tulip

Kite to your next pull so you can chain pull. Generate more rage and spend more rage.

muted nexus
#

chargeweave

south zealot
#

yeah ig i should kite more

muted nexus
#

anything that generates rage should basically be cycled in as efficiently as possible. except thunder clap cuz fuck that ability

chrome falcon

dame isn't saying you should kite mods to avoid damage

he's saying you need to chain pull

always be in combat

13k overall?

7k overall?

dont recall i just stared at % after awhile

eg soleah street, every pull he does like 25-28% of the damage

while like maybe 31-32

has anyone gotten the thorns neck from kara yet and is it worth the stat hustle 🤔

25% of the overall damage means very different things if you have a resto shaman doing 10% as well

im waiting for a neck dmg buff , but seems like they wont buff it

they buffed the ring dmg from last boss 2 times alrdy

vernal vale
#

I mean they buffed mechagon shit and it's still awful... so

stable valve
chrome falcon
#

the mechagon shit is still awful because it has no stats

#

the kara neck proc is literally free value

vernal vale
#

Even if they biff neck it needs huge gains to be worth.

chrome falcon
#

so if the proc was actually good damage it would be insane

vernal vale
#

Fair enough

queen hemlock
#

maybe cause he using codex of the first technique and decanter of anima-charged winds, not clue if those rack up good damage or not
