personally don't think it's good if the game tells you you should play a gajillion hours to be at max power

thoughts/opinions

#

is it good? anyone else using it?

oblique garnet
#

its ok

#

Nothing good not too bad

errant nimbus
#

worth removing a 272 bloodscale?

oblique garnet
#

Probably not

#

I dont remember how big the nerf was to bloodscale

chrome falcon
#

2nd on dps

#

for kujo

#

i'm gonna shut this hunters

#

fuckin mouth

#

until 11.0

oblique garnet
#

#

No toxic

real fossil
#

grimrail with sanguine is atrocious

pallid musk
#

It was avrage nerf plus Aegis does more. They nerfed the amount dam + absorb shield on BSS

#

Aegis 1.30 min cd has more value now but how big i don’t know exactly

tough cloud
#

So is codex really that bad for warrior ?

pallid musk
#

Yes

tough cloud
#

So sad man

#

What if

#

i never click Ignore pain

#

hell yea

lofty widget
#

it's not possible to never press IP anyway

oblique garnet
#

I mean it is

drifting fable
#

matta out there changing minds

oblique garnet
#

But you would waste all your rage

lofty widget
#

right

#

youd play the class very inefficiently

grave crane
mighty valley
#

makes me wonder if they've played with bad prot warriors or if they watched one video and decided that was enough

chrome falcon
#

tbh the gear thing is what annoys me most

#

yeah 280 is kinda low

#

but i'm wearing 2 trinkets that are 50 ilvls lower

#

than the rest

#

and 280 is enough for these joke dungeons anyway

median tulip
chrome falcon
#

it's a 19

#

so i assume some basic understanding

#

i really need to remember

#

to change off prot

#

for this key.

chrome falcon
quaint linden
#

Don't know anything about this shield.
Is the proc worth the loss in stats?

mighty valley
#

worse than another shield at same ilvl

pallid quiver
naive panther
#

anodized deflectors still bad after buff?

chrome falcon
#

it's worse than a real shield at equal ilvl

#

and also worse than sepulchre shield at equal ilvl

#

anodized deflectors might be fine now

#

they're like 1.5% of your damage

#

but

#

atm i'm just wearing real bracers

oblique garnet
#

@chrome falcon show overall

chrome falcon
#

logged out but was like 13k

#

6k hps

oblique garnet
#

Did the hunter atleast dps well

chrome falcon
#

he was like 13.5k

#

because he died early on kujo

#

which is why i was 2nd on that

mighty valley
#

maybe should switch class to handle flame jets better

chrome falcon
#

i can't believe this mf was like

#

"we can't bring you because you'll die to group damage from flame vents"

#

whatever at least he admitted he was wrong

#

spreading the good word of execute

grave crane
#

just walk away from the vents

chrome falcon
#

you just stand behind it lol

grave crane
#

you dont take any damage lol

#

like what?

chrome falcon
#

dps commenting on key mechanics

#

tilts me

#

like all they need to know is how to do basic rotation

#

and maybe 1 mechanic per boss

#

everything else is literally tank job

grave crane
#

i had a resto druid who ran out of mana at the halfway point of the king mechagon fight

#

and everyone but me died with like 5ish % and i died to the balls

#

that tilted me

mighty valley
#

how do you run out of mana there

chrome falcon
#

sometimes those balls are annoying as hell

mighty valley
#

what was everyone doing

chrome falcon
#

but yeah that fight does nothing

#

giga zap is light ST damage

#

and then there's heavy group damage once per 45 seconds or smth

#

that's it

grave crane
#

idk but that wipe tilted me unbelievably and we would have timed it easy peasy. proceed to just get knocked off by balls the next two times and get told im a shit tank cause i died lol that one had to just stop playing and chill

oblique garnet
#

Giga zap dot hurts

#

Also @patent osprey regarding the warrior being tankier now our rage generation atm is around the same as it was with lucid up in bfa

#

You can notice the difference in workshop really easily

#

Hp hardly drops

#

Last boss p1 that is

chrome falcon
#

that boss used to be pretty brutal

patent osprey
#

we had Conflict and strife, we were unkillable :)

oblique garnet
#

Yeah until you hit stuff like zul or workshop p1 or ml

#

Those bosses on tyrannical were pain

chrome falcon

Hi everyone, I am fortunate enough to have a completed set of the Mechagon rings. I have the proc activator from hitting an enemy from behind as well as the haste buff.

I wanted to test the buff uptime and am happy to report it is a very high uptime with NO EFFORT required. I completely ignored trying to game it, wiggle, or stun plus angle in any way and simply played as I normally would.

53% uptime in upper Kara
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/ntApYzQ6rm9X2PbN/#fight=2&type=auras&source=5

66% uptime in Grimrail

Probably both would be higher with any kind of effort at all but i didnt want to troll my groups too hard.

overclocking from vault

#

serious gaming

#

desperately resisting the urge to analyse the log

grand locust
#

regarding vent jets, ive found it does a tiny bit of damage from behind, but ignore pain + indomitable able to basically make it negligible (@15)

chrome falcon
#

yep

#

that's just the regular group-wide damage

#

that hits everyone

grand locust
#

ahhh gotcha

#

so it really does do not damage from behind hten

chrome falcon
#

nope

vestal moat
#

related to that, can we stand in and attack during cutting beam from king mechagon

chrome falcon
#

it 1 shots you if you're in front

#

and does light damage to everyone else

grand locust
#

but sometimes ive gotten away with iut not sure how

chrome falcon
#

i've had no issues with it

oblique garnet
#

Its blockable

chrome falcon
#

i just run behind it

oblique garnet
#

If you have sb up

chrome falcon
#

charge it and that'll put you at max hitbox range

#

as long as your ranged doesn't troll and make it 180 instantly you should have 0 downtime

oblique garnet
#

Oh no not cutting beam

chrome falcon
#

outside of the lift off

grand locust
#

oh i think i drop SB during that phase, didnt think i could block that

oblique garnet
#

You just have to be behind it

#

If you go in front you will get chunked

#

Was thinking of different mechanic

#

I.e the spin on 1st boss in mechagon

chrome falcon
#

yeah you just facetank that

#

well i use it for a rep proc normally

#

but you can just tank it

warm plinth
#

cutting beam doesn't matter where you are as long as you're max melee. Can be tricky though so be careful 😱

3 fucking shields

#

I got a shield from the vault, got the same shield from the weekly

yes

Yo, I got Sanguine Vintage heroic (sire trink) in box, currently running 252 shard and 259 OWS, do I take the trinket or run heroic SOD in hope of getting higher Shard / OWS?

#

I did get 304 belt that can replace 278 if thats the case

shouldnt bracers be unity?

tropic ember

Is this worth ?

hasty quest
#

What’s than?

solar willow
#

I've been averaging 6k, but I ran a 17 YARD yesterday and went ham on bigger pulls and got 8k, so should I be pulling like.... even bigger packs? 🤣

mighty valley
#

eh, you should be doing more than that even with single pack pulls

zealous willow
#

i got specter of brutality , but still stuck with 226 shield bro wtffff

#

i rlyt must do pvp for shield now like wtf

you can get a better shield from m0s

#

Does intervene work in that way.. so if i intervene the other tank, will i Get the potensial debuff the boss would give the tank thats having aggro? Or would i just Get the dmg from the hit and he Get the debuff?

mighty valley
#

if the debuff comes from a melee swing, you'll get it

vocal cave
mighty valley
solar willow
mighty valley
#

a lot of people play with all really average or worse players

and pulling big just makes everyone die because they don't know what to do

solar willow
#

I want the big dick numbers 🤣🤣🤣

jagged pier
solar willow
#

I wouldn't mind so much if there was a smaller gap between my dps and yours 😅

mighty valley
#

you need to pull big to get high dps

#

and if all the players are bad, they die in big pulls and can't manage them

strong forum
#

Pwar doesn't need to pull big to get high dps

#

That's copium

solar willow
#

Well, I posted the dungeon from last night in #449510248579858432 in which I did pull big and we managed

jagged pier
#

i dont pull over 6 mobs tbh

#

ask nomer im one of the safest pullers out there

strong forum
#

Our dmg peaks at 6-8 targets

#

We are softcapped to 5 targets, pulling big doesn't mean huge dmg for us, we are consistent we don't burst

solar willow
#

Im definitely missing something 🤔

finite arch
#

means, pulling 8k dps isnt necessarily bad or wrong

strong forum
#

8k is early s2 dps

brittle owl
#

it's defo bad

finite arch
#

if u pull just group by group, then u land 6-8k dps

strong forum
#

No?

finite arch
#

considering gear and pull size

brittle owl
#

groups are generally 5+ or 4+ targets

solar willow
#

I was doing double pack pulls throughout

zealous willow
#

i think some ppl just dont do execute on trash and they lose dps ?

solar willow
#

And I'm 287

finite arch
#

uff

jagged pier
strong forum
#

Ya with 287 you should 100% pull minimum 11k

In every key

No matter how you pull

OK ok

I haven't got a replacemenntttt

Lol yesterday I was like "hey 8k is higher for me!"

strong forum
#

All of your buttons need to be pressed more

#

You're literally pressing only half of the amount that you should press

#

You don't charge weave enough, you don't use intervene

solar willow
#

HALF?! WAH

zealous willow

7k with zap ? 😄

You don't press ignore pain enough , you don't press execute enough

4 intervene casts is wild

zealous willow

#

yer your casts are not what they should be @solar willow your SS CPM is 9.4 where it should be around 15 CPM TC is low u dont intervene ever or barely charge

u wasted about 10% of your rage

I'm still learning dungeons tbh

is there WA to show when u have SS active ?

Can pick 291 Heart, 304 Codex or 304 shoulders (got 278) this week and not sure what to pick

Shoulders

#

Cheat death trinket is good for an oh shit moment but that doesnt really happen unless its wranglers

lilac minnow
#

alrighty, thanks.. was my thinking too but always good with a second opinion 😄

emphasis on wranglers

Cheat death trinket is fun to kill your off tank with >=D

if u love stamina wotlk is near, wotlk u can stack stamina np-

So you’re still losing out on a lot of free damage from literally any other trinket

cobalt seal
#

unless you misplay like hell

chilly brook
#

Not to mention it’s a shit trinket as far as defense is concerned

chilly brook
dusk jay
cobalt seal
#

and see if codex does 5% dmg

#

or healing

chilly brook
#

?

cobalt seal
#

it prob does like 3% dmg

#

and healing

chilly brook
#

……

#

Do you think that I’m somehow saying codex’s proc is better than strength?

#

Because you might want to reread….

sick sentinel
#

And then it goes on a 5 min cd right after a 2nd use

cobalt seal
chilly brook
#

….

cobalt seal
#

you might want to edit that

#

because that means codex proc= str loss

solar willow

Wah
Just double checked the mech rings, you need both right to have them be useful?

No you might just not want to be a dumbass

I'm guessing spike is bait? How good is it for fury, since I play that as well.

#

solar willow
#

I'll just wait till I have both rings then 🤣

queen bobcat
#

was thinking about taking SLG trinket

chilly brook
#

Aka the proc is maybe only worth the strength value of a trinket, minus literally every other good thing from any other trinket

cobalt seal
#

but it isn't

#

worth the str value

#

of the trinket

oblique garnet
#

yep guess its time to get rank 1 so people will stop listening to bad players

sick sentinel
#

Wait boots is leggo

queen bobcat
cobalt seal
#

codex is like 50% of str value of trinket

queen bobcat
sick sentinel
#

much better trinkets you can get

chilly brook

Codex probably does ~300dps

queen bobcat

#

Str is around 2dps per point

Also i watched tattman do some keys and well greenbear

yer that was my reaction

#

maybe i should stream me just pumping low junkyards and workshop for rings

because once i have them my gear comes from raid

🤔

sand pebble

only if you have high io so people will watch, it wont matter if you are good or not

i dont because i hate m+

sand pebble

guess that means you know sfa about tanking

jagged pier
sand pebble
#

thats how my guildy thinks of you

#

i disagree

jagged pier
#

why does your guild care about io surely it should care about what raid experience u have

#

🤔

sand pebble
#

because he was 3.6k io last tier and his word is final

#

so now when i say things like - yeah ill come to wshop because i want the ring - he jumpos in out of nowhere and tells me no thats wrong because the highest io tanks in the world said so

Legit had to disprove that no you did not need vers amps to time keys

Is codex even equal to str value loss in dps?

No

Guessing its the same this tier that stacking vers is worthless

jagged pier

strong forum

Codex is only equal to Str if you do literally everything wrong

cobalt seal

about how much?

like 50% or less

am I stupid to pass on mythic heart of alar with avoidance and 6 ilvl upgrade tier legs with leech to get a 6 ilvl upgrade high haste/vers gloves?

It’s a shit trinket but take your W for me saying the proc itself accounts for just the str of a regular trinket

it seems rare to get

strong forum
#

Given that m+ can award up to 298 from just doing the dungeon, I'd unironically suggest getting alars even if you're not going to get value out of it

#

Unless you ofc won't get KSM in the near future

#

Alars, as chimmi said, will only find optimal use if you're actually doing top end keys

vault has 304 soleahs and then just 2 random gear pieces that are 13 ilvl upgrades

garbage

giving serious thought to just taking sockets

but i guess 13 ilvls on shoulders is ok

sick sentinel

i only did the LFR and it was this, a ring or a helmet mog :S, pretty sure i can get the helmet on another run

How good is soleahs for us?

chrome falcon

last season it was fine

because all the trinkets suck

What do you guys think?

chrome falcon

kara neck has good stats

Im thinking the neck

chrome falcon

but if the legs or feet or are big ilvl upgrades take them

long term the neck is one of our best ones though

neon fossil

Legs is leggo

chrome falcon

you'll move reprisal to feet when you can

but just grab neck tbh

eh well

if you're not mythic raiding actually

maybe the extra stats are better

guys for someone just learning prot, would you recommend the wall or reprisal ? for Raid tanking

jagged pier

rep

cunning pecan
#

I'd recommend just using Reprisal. I didn't start tanking or playing warrior until last season though. But that's how I started and it's really good to get into the habit of using Intervene and Charge weaving.

yea i thought it sounded cool anyways might just grab that thanks!

play first pack after 2nd boss and the last back before third boss

skip everything in between

can you walk past

come back at it again, get deleted again (stuns)

not at a player?

the owl is also much more terrifying when you are gnome, twice as big

Glad its ceasing to exist in df

Tbf charge weaving itself is optimal, even without reprisal

Why doesn't it matter?

stat % are irrelevant

survivability comes from gameplay

sick sentinel

he's saying vers doesn't matter if you play well and don't get hit by shit and kill it before it has chance to do 17 attacks to kill you instead of 4 because you killed it

primal ruin

Ofc... but you can still max out your stuff with haste and vers

lofty widget

cause any arbitrary % vers isnt gonna save you

correct play is

You can, but it doesn't play a big role

primal ruin

Why does most tanks want haste vers then ? If it doesn't matter 🤔😉

strong forum
#

Want =/= need

Sure you want haste vers, in an ideal world, but you don't have access to perfect stat allocation

vers is just a good stat for dmg that also happens to reduce the dmg we take

From what I know mastery isn't bad, it provides more tankiness than crit but crit is more dam and more dam feelsgood

Heyo, I had a question about Haste for Protection. With the new season I've had a lot of upgrades which has led to me having pretty low haste values. How important is it to be around the 30-35% haste mark ub, should I be dropping significant ilvl upgrades to keep the Haste up there?
