UF eh.... interesting....

#

is that the new play

queen hemlock
#

Anyone used leash of bargast prior

urban portal
#

practice for df

urban portal
queen hemlock
#

Is it viable to give it to a dps and maybe that guy lives

#

Maybe

urban portal
#

its the other way around

#

you are making someone else take your damage

delicate kraken
#

Put it on dps to troll

#

Kill someone with it

urban portal
#

^

#

its 31k damage at 200 ilvl

#

probably way higher now

#

can definitely one shot someone thats low

queen hemlock
#

Wtf

delicate kraken
#

Ruin someones parce

queen hemlock
#

Why would they make this kinda shit
It doesnt even seen that viable even when raiding

urban portal
#

well

#

technically

#

its a 25% dr

#

if you just put it on your off tank

#

while you are getting blasted

delicate kraken
#

I had it for mythic nathria prog

urban portal
#

i can see the logic behidn it

queen hemlock
#

What if off tank also getting smacked

urban portal
#

its just bad

queen hemlock
#

Then in that moment its a trink that gibs stats

urban portal
#

thats why its bad

median tulip
queen hemlock
#

Y tehy do dis

urban portal
#

cuz they dont know what tanks want in a tank trinket

#

again, its TECHNICALLY the highest hps trinket

queen hemlock
#

Thought maybe next week i can roll for it if maybe its not so bad if i can give a dps

urban portal
#

for you

#

but in practice its useless because it doesnt generate hp out of thin air

queen hemlock
#

Very sadge

#

Maybe in df a similar one will be releasd

#

Where they give your ally a shield that youre linked to

pallid quiver
#

yo wait there's a trinket I can kill my DPS with? Where? What? I need this sweet revenge

queen hemlock
#

Then youll say why not give yourself a shield instead

pallid quiver
#

i wanna just target a "friendly" mage and just be like, "Die, scum"

queen hemlock
#

Imagine it goes through ice block

delicate kraken
#

If I remember it absorbs like 200k

dawn canyon
#

yank em into shit

delicate kraken
#

Pop bargast and use zero defensives and game wicked

pallid quiver
#

yo im boutta become the inting master of my friend group

specifically towards one person in particular

#

i brought friends ass, i panicked and dropped a void zone in melee ass...

urban portal
queen hemlock
#

All in all maybe its a hidden op trink later in the season as they rework it just you waitcopium

urban portal
#

its unique

#

at least

queen hemlock
#

Me thinks its just sad that it isnt techincally even niche

#

Like that stone somethink trink

#

More people use more vers

urban portal
#

well it is niche

#

you are putting healer stress on another person

#

you arent reducing healer stress

#

but its technically a huge amount of hp saved on YOURSELF

delicate kraken
#

Plausible deniability if someone else is dying and not you

queen hemlock
#

Like playing dota and sundering you ally as you know youre getting globaled

#

And the guy dies with your remark being there are 3/14 of you and only 1/2 of me

#

I'm more important

vapid lynx
#

is that neck from lower that barbed one any decent?

urban portal
#

no

toxic pewter
#

In iron docks Is grouping up packs for iron stars difficult? Groups starting to ask me to do it but never done it before anyone have any tips

chrome falcon
#

i'd watch some videos

toxic pewter
#

Ok

chrome falcon
#

generally the easy plan is to get 3 ogrons and 1 pack into the first star

#

then everything else that's easily visible into the second

#

and then clean up with the third

toxic pewter
#

Ok that sounds good I just don’t want to die as I do it

#

I should go practice

dawn canyon
toxic pewter
#

Yeah I feel like in a pug it can all go to shit really fast

sick sentinel
#

tc #1 dmg, WW casts and spear of bastion

#

we have failed

dawn canyon
#

luldex

delicate kraken
#

is that a codex I see

sick sentinel
#

look closer there is more things

mighty valley
#

dragon roar let's go

sick sentinel
#

3.4k dps on a 288 warrior

#

holy shit i didn't even see DR

delicate kraken
#

touch of the grave?

#

tf is that

#

wtf is this breakdown

sick sentinel
#

UD racial

delicate kraken
sick sentinel
#

it does a dot/heal u thingy when u deal dmg

mighty valley
#

i haven't actually thought if shattering throw is worth on the miniboss dreadlord

#

maybe i can learn from this 3k dps warrior

sick sentinel
#

wtf is anodized deflection

mighty valley
#

what on earth is going on with whirlwind. i really hope they're like, at least trying the WW conduit

dawn canyon
#

dragon roar

delicate kraken
#

codex doing more dmg than ravager

sick sentinel
#

here he is i found him on armory

#

the 210 queensgaurd vigil trinket checks out, shows dmg from it

#

WTF he's got vitality sacrifice head

#

and only 1 legendary

lusty grotto
#

awww yisss a talent roast

delicate kraken
#

The unconventional warrior

lusty grotto
#

its been a while since ive seen one

mighty valley
#

never surrender...

#

this... is so beautiful...

lusty grotto
#

GOAT war honestly

sick sentinel
#

bolster

lusty grotto
#

what a champ

#

lmao

sick sentinel
#

we have failed

sweet summit
#

what the

lusty grotto
#

nay, this is a big success

sick sentinel
#

maybe somebody should send this guy a guiding hand

mighty valley
#

this person probably has a more fulfilling life outside of wow than any of us

#

what a champion

sick sentinel
#

god hope its an alt

lusty grotto
#

giga champ

delicate kraken
#

Now

#

I must try this loadout

#

In a +15

lusty grotto
#

that deserves a pin honestly

sick sentinel
#

could be a troll

#

that seems very troll load out

delicate kraken
#

Bro works a 9-5, has a wife and 2 kids and drives a honda civic

lusty grotto
#

hey

#

hol up

#

that's unwarranted

delicate kraken
#

Man is living life

sick sentinel
#

seems like, hes focusing on trying to make his thunderclap better and have better AOE and then a bunch of talents to ruduce damag

#

thus the VR lego helm no unity and bolster

delicate kraken
#

The no unity is kinda odd

#

It gives it to you for just questing

lusty grotto
#

thats a giga leggo he has

chrome falcon
sick sentinel
#

he had 4 set and did 9 charges for 1 and a half bosses of trash

#

so i'll give him credit better than i'd have done there

delicate kraken
#

This is his beginner arc

#

He just doesn't know yet

mighty valley
#

has AOTCs going back to WoD

#

which i think reinforces the idea this is a middle aged guy with a job and a family

sick sentinel
#

his highest key lvl for some of these is like a 9

lusty grotto
#

a tried and true champion

royal lodge
#

LoL, I feel called out also.

sick sentinel
#

which leads me to believe he isn't a MDI/KSM player

lusty grotto
#

i commend his attitude of not giving a fuck lmao

delicate kraken
#

Not giving a fuck = More personal fun

royal lodge
#

Middle aged is in 40s?

sick sentinel
#

oh well, im not here to dog on some guy in his 40's bad at a video game

#

i am him

delicate kraken
#

I like to believe most warrior players are either middle aged dads or college students

royal lodge
#

LoL, this is important because I am 38.

#

And have kids

#

And a career

sick sentinel
#

crackheads as well if they are DPS

#

they like to yell in guild voice discord

delicate kraken
#

DPS warriors talk a lot of shit

dawn canyon
#

real.

delicate kraken
#

Had a fury warrior friend always talking shit

#

no matter what

dawn canyon
#

its in our blood

sick sentinel
#

warlocks always talk shit too

royal lodge
#

This is true.

sick sentinel
#

mages don't talk shit or make you look stupid

sick sentinel
#

what is this, embeds for ants?

royal lodge
#

The warlocks and DPS warriors talk the most shit in my raid.

autumn pendant
#

@strong forum

#

For good old memories

sick sentinel
#

he didnt leave did he?

dawn canyon
#

i want lists and mango plants

delicate kraken
#

its the personification of being a warrior player

#

angry all the time lmao

mighty valley
#

damage doesn't really kill the boss, it just makes it take less time. that's the issue with dps

dawn canyon
sick sentinel
#

or, its like 1 am in gemany now maybe i think

dawn canyon
#

yep

#

00:50

autumn pendant
#

I remember when he argued with half of skyhold

delicate kraken
dawn canyon
#

gromnak is my hero

#

he is an irl fury warrior

autumn pendant
#

Pretty sure i have screenshots of that too

plush prism
#

Hi cuties, what do y'all think of replacing Inspiring Presence with Disturb the Peace? Shockwave is so stupidly useful and 29s vs 40s is pretty useful in M+ it seems

sick sentinel
#

it wouldn't be warrior discord without a bunch of angry screaming middle aged bald men

mellow bridge
#

You normally take safeguard in m+ and not inspiring presence

sweet summit
#

^

plush prism
#

but yeah, same question

delicate kraken
sick sentinel
#

priest is a girl IRL

delicate kraken
#

Balance druids have ego's higher than mountains and can't cope with not being the best spec 24/7

sick sentinel
#

probably druid too or a furry guy

#

paladin is a guy that goes to curch

dawn canyon
#

sexuality has nothing to do with moonkins

#

let em do whatever

delicate kraken
#

Paladins are the one friend who does all the work but no one notices, Unless you're ret then you get bullied instead

hollow sun
delicate kraken
#

Reminds me of my fury warrior friend

#

Bro would get mad at anything

dawn canyon
#

check out his youtube

#

its like 300 clips of him getting mad

delicate kraken
#

Is he duel wielding the fury artifact weapons lmao

hollow sun
#

i guess its not his yt channel lol

dawn canyon
#

prof gromnak is his

fallen belfry
#

I've been trying UF since I saw you pumping with it. Gotta say it flows much nicer with similar dps.

hollow sun
#

so he is posting all that? i guess being shameless is a good trait to have

lusty grotto
#

haha this guy is a certified champ

south zealot
#

every single time i EVER see him

#

do anything EVER

#

hes complaining about some shit that is almost always his fault

#

cant kill his gavel?

#

blizzards fault

#

cant go through the workshop maze

#

blizzards fault

lusty grotto
#

lmaooo

south zealot
#

how the fuck do u fail the bot area as a venthyr

sick sentinel
lusty grotto
#

yea

sick sentinel
#

more viewers more ads more money

south zealot
#

i could never watch

#

its so fucking annoying to hear a man scream that much

sick sentinel
#

same, but it works

#

so he gunna do it

south zealot
#

i guess so

#

if it pays the bills right

sick sentinel
#

i guess

#

he seems like he'll get cancelled eventually

#

just a bit too willing to pop off over nothing

thick salmon
#

hello im new to discord and trying out Prot warrior since legion. 1 quick question...can u still get the hidden appearance for prot? for weapon artifact?

dawn canyon
#

yep

thick salmon
#

anything in particular i need to do?

#

i know about finding it in the cave but can't seem to have it appear

dawn canyon
#

id check the wowhead page

warm plinth
#

Nothing special. Have the artifact, go to the cave once a day after reset, see if you get the emote

#

If you do, go find it. If you don't, better luck tomorrow

thick salmon
#

artifact weapon needs to be equipped?

chrome falcon
#

no

#

you get one try a day

thick salmon
#

okay thank you

warm plinth
#

Like you need to have it somewhere, whether it's in the bank or void storage or whatever. But you have to have done the quest line for it is all I was saying.

thick salmon
#

ahhh cool yeah ive had that since legion

#

and that macro people talking about

#

is it worth doing?

queen hemlock
#

Ive never heard of this hidden thing before

#

What do i google to find it

#

Just legion hidden artifact transmog,m,

#

?*

warm plinth
# thick salmon is it worth doing?

If you're camping the area, then it can be good to have because the emote can get spammed out by addon messages when you log in. If you're going back there each day, then you don't really need it

#

Yeah

queen hemlock
#

Thanks

paper coral
#

How is prot in torghast btw?

dawn canyon
#

can do 16s or whatever is higfhest now

#

but why would u

paper coral
#

i haven't played since shadowlands came out, i don't know what that means

#

Oh ok.

dawn canyon
#

torg went up from 8

#

but you dont have to do it

paper coral
#

Is that 16s or whatever solo or in groups?

dawn canyon
#

can solo them, but the play is to get rep in ZM

#

spend 2k flux and get 5500 ash + new mat for lego

#

in a bag

#

essentially you dont go to torg unless u craft a lego

paper coral
#

Also, here's a dumb question, how do I know when to use SB vs IP, or is that mostly a matter of knowing when something is blockable or not

dawn canyon
#

IP is just to prevent rage overcap

paper coral
#

Phil, thanks for that. I need to get cracking. I might 50 boost for a warrior, i just have to actually play him.

dawn canyon
paper coral
#

I have a 60 warrior on another server from my buddies. I might xfer him, but he's tauren and I'd like to be orc, so I'd ahve to race change too. i dunno if it's worth the money lol

dawn canyon
#

appearance is a dps increase

paper coral
#

xmog is definitely a dps increase.

#

more importantly i could bring my gold over tho lol

dawn canyon
#

depends on how much you like leveling, but why not make ur orc on ur main server

paper coral
#

and then move him over or not even bothe with that since cross realm?

#

I dont mind leveling.

dawn canyon
#

i personally hate having gold but not access to it

#

all my gold is on my old ally war and i cant reach it

#

while im broke on my orc

paper coral
#

I have a bunch of gold. I got my longneck whenit was available

#

but its on my main server

#

I used to multibox before it was bannable

dawn canyon
#

stay on ur main server so u can grab all the 291 legos and consumes u want

#

imo

coral marsh
#

why should reprisal be crafted on boots?

plush prism
#

Thoughts on protecting bit band? Magic absorb is always nice...

chrome falcon
chrome falcon
coral marsh
#

unity is bis in bracers i assume for the same reason

chrome falcon
#

you got it

icy flax
#

(Still very new to learning to play necro prot) When do y'all find the time to press Fleshcraft

plush prism
#

any time

#

you get an absorb

urban portal
#

whenever you feel like it

plush prism
#

20% absorb while channeling

#

it's like another defensive

sick sentinel
#

utlimate form renders you immune to CC, so you can use it early to avoid some mechanics

sharp night
#

just tap it for a split sec whenever it's off cd for the buff, unless you want to use it to DR/immune something

icy flax
#

Well, Yes But in those moments I'm trying to keep spamming rage consume for banner

sick sentinel
#

you still take damage, but you don't get sleeped by the circle

sharp night
#

like if it comes off cd in a trash pack i'm literally just tapping it and insta-cancel

#

the shield doesn't matter, just want the mastery buff

icy flax
#

That's what I assumed ita

plush prism
#

there are also great specific applications, like using it while soaking a pool during Rygelon etc

urban portal
#

its a dps down to tap it

#

just fyi

#

you use it whenever you have downtime

sick sentinel
#

to my knowledge thats the first time i've seen a tank use vitality sacrifice leggo

#

those are the types of 3rd option triple legendaries i spoke of would have consisted of, all those low tier trash ones

#

lure, eye, norg, eonar, judgement

agile pumice
#

They should've let us have leaper as a 3rd lego

sick sentinel
#

my belief is if we started with 9.0 double legendary and then 9.1 we get sets and 9.2 we get 3rd leggo, bit more dreadlords, could have been really good time in shadowlands

coral marsh
#

is there a good reason for low level legendaries costing more than 291?

chrome falcon
#

no

toxic pewter
#

ah is messed up big time on NA at least

#

a lot of prices including legendaries are all messed up

#

almost makes me wonder if they will do an ah reset or something at least items posted when since these issues started

undone verge
urban portal
#

people just want to scam people

hazy edge
#

right you can't block/parry/dodge while channeling, wrong it is worth using

#

wait we are talking about fleshcraft right?

#

I just kinda assumed

cobalt seal
#

I dont think you have any channel stuff

chrome falcon
#

asa

cobalt seal
#

outside of shat

chrome falcon
#

you can block during FC

shut summit
#

you can block

chrome falcon
#

idk about parry or dodge but you can 100% block

#

since 9.1

#

or maybe even since 9.0.5

cobalt seal
#

why is FC dif than every other channel?

undone verge
#

Yeah you def can block I found an article about it. It was changed in the buff around then

chrome falcon
#

because blizz said so cro

#

idk

undone verge
#

To make it viable

chrome falcon
#

^

hazy edge
#

Oh didn't know that

#

just assumed you couldn't like very other channel

chrome falcon
#

yeah it used to be that way

#

but then they realised it was just dogshit for tanks so

hazy edge
#

Ye that makes sense

cobalt seal
#

just make a 1s channel for tanks

#

because its still kinda dogshit for tanks

chrome falcon
#

there are defo situations where i press it

#

but not very often

#

normally i'd rather be pressing buttons

cobalt seal
#

I hope it isnt mid pack xD

chrome falcon
#

but if i see a brackish bolt i can't deal with coming i'll throw it up

cobalt seal
#

or a full channel

chrome falcon
#

or if the healer is dead/slept

#

i'll leap out and start channeling

undone verge
#

And in terms of viability, we had a little debate about this earlier, and during combat, at least in ST, it’s a very slight dps increase spending a gcd on it, but optimizing it’s usage is so complicated unless you want the headache of figuring out if you should use it now or wait till a forced downtime state, it’s probably not worth worrying about. And in Aoe I’d assume it’s similar situations.

chrome falcon
#

it is not a dps increase

#

if you're only getting the 120 mastery

cobalt seal
#

I'm gonna go to bed

#

so I dont pop my eyeballs from what I just saw

chrome falcon
#

which part

undone verge
#

Its a slight dps increase

chrome falcon
#

it is not

#

unless there are new numbers out

#

but it wasn't for all of 9.2

hazy edge
#

If you're only getting the mastery it isn't

#

if you're getting something else it is

chrome falcon
#

it was worth to have it on CD

cobalt seal
#

you still dont channel it

chrome falcon
#

for the whole dungeon

#

in 9.2

cobalt seal
#

you simply tap

#

and get the mastery

chrome falcon
#

because getting the urh buff was huge gaming

#

5% magic dr was nice

undone verge
#

You do tap not channel

hazy edge
cobalt seal
#

insta tap before pull

chrome falcon
#

yeah you should keep it on CD at all times if you can

#

by tapping outside of combat

cobalt seal
#

or if in a boss fight there is a downtime

chrome falcon
#

but in combat just press buttons

cobalt seal
#

and channel FC

chrome falcon
#

it's to buy time while i have no healer

#

because they're bedge

cobalt seal
#

when are healers needed except rare situations for tanks?

chrome falcon
#

...

#

i feel like you just answered your own question

#

my guy

#

rare situations

cobalt seal
#

your situations was 1 bolt

chrome falcon
#

no?

#

i said or

#

O R

cobalt seal
#

that or is still so RARE

#

you are tankier than VDH

#

and I rarely need a healer

raw void
#

i just got this belt do i move unity for it?

chrome falcon
#

i was in a 26 gambit earlier today, tanking 5 enraged burly pirates and a caster plus two dreadlords

cobalt seal
#

by rarely

chrome falcon
#

if my healer is asleep

cobalt seal
#

I mean I survive 1m

chrome falcon
#

i don't want to facetank that

cobalt seal
#

without them

hazy edge
cobalt seal
#

or any stop at all

chrome falcon
#

yes because on a 26 with pugs who don't save all CDs for that pull

#

you only have to stop that cast once

#

"hey sometimes i do this"

cobalt seal
#

5+1 is at least 2 groups

#

if dps didn't have cd's

chrome falcon
#

"um actually you should only do that in rare situations"

cobalt seal
#

why pull both?

chrome falcon
#

do you realise

#

this is why

#

i call you argumentative

#

we're not longer talking about fleshcraft

cobalt seal
#

because you are giving reasons to channel FC

chrome falcon
#

you're just trying to bicker about a random situation i mentioned i was taking a lot of damage

cobalt seal
#

that as prot war happen like 1/10k situations

chrome falcon
#

OK

#

SO

#

MORE THAN ZERO

#

SO SOMETIMES IT'S CORRECT

urban portal
#

i SWEAR that tapping was a dps down

chrome falcon
#

GOOD TALK BRUV 🙂

#

it is 100% a dps down

lusty grotto
#

are dps players going for the same ring combo as us? i see them farming mechagon as well and talking about the ring

#

rings*

chrome falcon
#

pretty much nim yes

toxic pewter
#

I sometimes channel fleshcraft

chrome falcon
#

i think some of them want the dps proc

raw void
toxic pewter
#

its usally one of the last resort buttons i would press

lusty grotto
#

aw shit, well no trades i guess

toxic pewter
#

does that anti cc effect fleshcraft does also effect knockbacks? anyone know

urban portal
#

yes

toxic pewter
#

oh damn I can think of other times that may be useful perhaps

paper coral
#

I've heard it mentioned, whats this reprisal build?

lusty grotto
#

the same build we've done since s1

#

since reprisal was the leggo we used then

chrome falcon
#

it's not a build

#

it's just the only viable legendary for most content

lusty grotto
#

i guess he has to be more specific

chrome falcon
#

unless you wanna call reprisal+double time a build which i guess is technically true

paper coral
#

Oh, ok. I didn't know about that legendary

lusty grotto
#

oof my dude

paper coral
#

so you're basically charging/intervening on CD?

#

I HAVENT PLAYED PROT WAR

#

I have the leaf.

chrome falcon
#

oh hey there's a leaf now?

#

is that a skyhold thing or a discord thing?

lusty grotto
#

wait i dont see the leaf

chrome falcon
#

he has a leaf next to his user

lusty grotto
#

its just a gigantic blank space

paper coral
chrome falcon
lusty grotto
chrome falcon
#

charge isn't on CD but you should always have one charge running

paper coral
#

Mattacate, what do we intervene to, random person and then go back?

chrome falcon
#

ah might be because mobile nim i'm on pc

lusty grotto
#

melee is safer

chrome falcon
#

99% of the time you want to intervene to melee

vapid lynx
#

so i did an ID and my top 5 damage abitiltes were, SS, Revenge, Execute, Deep Wounds, Melee. In that order that seem decent?

lusty grotto
#

but if none in party then whoever is closest

paper coral
#

That seems kind of annoying, constantly pulling you out of position.

chrome falcon
#

top 5 in terms of damage storm? i mean it's hard to say without logs

vapid lynx
#

yeah

chrome falcon
#

but TC should be in there i think

lusty grotto
#

you can intervene in melee range to melee so you basically dont move

chrome falcon
#

how close were SS and revenge?

chrome falcon
#

but yes it's pretty fucking annoying sometimes

lusty grotto
#

it is a different playstyle from other playstyles though

chrome falcon
#

🙂

vapid lynx
#

here this will be easier to break it down

#

i didnt log it :9 cause i forgot to

chrome falcon
#

that's a lot of execute i like that

#

uh it's really hard to say without logs though

#

i feel like TC is low there but i might just be making that up

vapid lynx
#

yeah i meant to log it

#

and just forgot to turn it on 😦

chrome falcon
#

we go agane

vapid lynx
#

been just running 15s trying to fix some stuff, cause my execute has been way low in the past

#

like #6/#7

chrome falcon
#

tyran execute should definitely be stonks

#

especially in docks

#

where there are 9 combined "boss" mobs

#

tfw ahri'ok casts sanguine sphere in execute

vapid lynx
#

yeah i changed my nameplates, and remembered to put my mouseover execute macro on, so i can execute low hp mobs easier in AoE too

cobalt seal
#

if you didn't log

chrome falcon
vapid lynx
cobalt seal
#

can you show buff uptime at least

chrome falcon
vapid lynx
#

74% on conq banner, kidna low it felt like

chrome falcon
#

99% of the time if you're in a pug that shield is just getting yeeted

#

docks can be rough for banner because the iron stars are basically forced downtime, and you might be doing a skip

vapid lynx
#

well i play Pwar and MM, and like as pwar i execute it, as MM my Aimed hsots just bounce anyway

chrome falcon
#

74% is probably a bit lower than full potential

vapid lynx
#

its betetr than ive been doing

#

been doing sub 65% normally

chrome falcon
cobalt seal
#

Not that SB uptime matter (blocked hits do) but for ID seems "low"

vapid lynx
#

is there a way to check blocked hits without logging

lusty grotto
#

no

cobalt seal
#

I dont think details has that

vapid lynx
#

dammit

lusty grotto
#

just enable auto logging in dbm

vapid lynx
#

welp ill be running more tomorrow and with it being fort ill start logging

#

i wanna get good enough to run 25s at some point, even though i dont tank main

chrome falcon
#

you can tag me if you post logs

lusty grotto
#

well youre def doing better than i am

#

so keep at it

chrome falcon
vapid lynx
#

thanks mattacate ❤️

#

def gonna post

#

prob gonna do like a big AoE dg and a more ST dungeon log

cobalt seal
#

A gambit is good enough

#

for that

chrome falcon
#

gambit's a real good dungeon

vapid lynx
#

gambit i have issues with first pull, DPS liek to just insta yeet aggro before i even get stuff pulled

pallid quiver
#

unless people try their absolute damndest to let the scalebinders roam free

#

that one DK who gripped it to the outer reaches of space and let it just cast fish stick i'm lookin' at you

chrome falcon
#

yeah first pull gambit can be rough if you have mongo dps

#

my best advice is to chuck ravager on the first pack then focus on the second

#

and challenging shout is good

vapid lynx
#

yeah ive started figuring thats the play

chrome falcon
#

biggest thing is to not let fishmancers cast waterbolt on them

vapid lynx
#

just yeet ravager at one of the packs

pallid quiver
#

chucking ravager at the start of a pull od

#

even if we still miss that first tick of rage

chrome falcon
#

somehow yesterday i lost a boomie to aggro on that first pull

with a rogue and hunter both MDing me

#

so idk

#

you just have to be careful

It does work like that for raid bosses

So if they ever give us all 3 raids doable in 1 week

rotund sluice

i figured if that was a thing it'd be talked about everywhere 😦 just figured i'd double check

onyx vessel
#

Could just do the ones you want

#

So for raid since you need only 8

#

Skip 2 bosses you dont want gear from

#

Aka 1st 2 bosses

#

If you care

#

I just do em all

rotund sluice
#

if you had a decently geared alt you could probably hit 8/10 on one and then swap for last bosses with higher ilvl loot

onyx vessel
#

Sadly you only get 1 chance

#

Better to have 3 chances

rotund sluice
#

1 chance with guaranteed 311 isn't so bad tho

onyx vessel
#

Rather then 1 at bosses you want drops from

#

Well for mythic yeah

#

For heroic or under hell nah

rotund sluice
#

well if not targetting mythic raid then just hit M+ and forget raids :p

onyx vessel
#

But remember this season you can buy em

#

And upgrade it

#

3 peices

ya in theory i guess that would be worth it for some pieces especially if you like raiding

Ows shield and another sanctum trinket

Hey guys. Piercing missiles from mevidh when I reflect it I sometimes still get the debuff? Is there any reason why that is? Or is that meant to happen

Or am I just bad

coral marsh
#

Is it better to craft tier on chest or hands? Hands give neither haste nor verse + there is a hasteverse hand in dungeons, chest gives haste at least but also shitty mastery + there is a hasteverse chest in dungeons and chest gives most stats. I know guides recommend chest over hands but it seems like hands would be better? Less haste but better stats overall.

How do you deal with medivh missiles, on 15 my whole pool just gets pretty much deleted, is there some secret I don't know? I try to be full rage and up on ignore pain and spam it during and reflect last tick but if god forbid I get 2 in a row im dead, otherwise I only nearly die.

strong forum

If you need to, just kick

pallid quiver
#

Well, the goal is to definitely not take two like that without CDs in any way

#

And the above

#

You can also spell reflect the last tick to dodge the debuff

#

Which goes a long way towards reducing your damage taken

sour olive
#

Yeah I try to do that part still dmg seems insane so thought there's maybe some way to mitigate ^^

pallid quiver
#

Damage to the tank isn't particularly massive outside of piercing missiles usually, so you can plan SW use around that

If you really need to, you can Fleshcraft as a CD

Is heroic only guilds a thing? Or its just self kicking in a knee knowing that you just cant do heroic for 12 months with no new content right

strong forum
#

It also won't show up on logs cuz it applies the reduction on the enemy, so people will never have the face-on value of it without reverse engineering it

#

Basically, count together every single hit of dmg you took and subtract 900 dmg from it, over the course of a key it'll amount to several million

The ideal scenario is not a guild that needs to prog heroic and instead just clears it, but doesn't care enough to go into mythic

@strong forum is a 50/50 haste verse belt or 60/40 haste mastery belt better for m+?

strong forum

Haste vers

river fiber
#

Maybe this is not the thread, so apologies in advance, but I have been playing with a frost DK and DH for a little while and I am pretty close in DPS to them. Is prot warrior DPS that good, are those specs underperforming or is it a rotation issue?

strong forum
#

It's just bad dps players

#

A tank should not be able to beat any dps player

coral marsh
#

@strong forum how did icy vein determine that 60/40 crit haste cloak is better than the 100 verse for the mythic+ bis?

strong forum
#

Cuz it just is?

#

Doesn't take a genius to figure out that a haste cloak is better than a cloak without any haste

coral marsh
#

so the piece should always have haste as a minor stat at least, but major/equal verse to haste is better than major haste with crit/mastery

strong forum
#

It's been established for years that haste is our best stat, why would we suddenly forsake haste on cloak

#

Nah, the point is

#

Ilvl > haste > vers >= crit > mastery

#

And a haste vers item is better than haste mastery

#

As mastery provides very little damage compared to vers

coral marsh
#

ye but the haste-mastery-item has more haste than the haste-verse-item, that was just the thing that made me unsure

#

and also the guides need an update because the mechagon cloak gives a little more haste than crit than the tazavesh one

strong forum
#

The 10 haste isn't gonna make it better than picking a worse stat

#

Just because there's slightly more haste on an item, doesn't mean it's the best item

#

You also dont want heavy haste in literally every item to get 50% haste and barely anything else, you want a healthy balance of stats

#

Which is why I for example run tier gloves and normal pants with crit/vers cuz it's more overall dmg

coral marsh
#

so your chest isnt tier?

strong forum
#

My chest is tier

#

I might turn my legs into tier however cuz I'm starting to have a little low haste

#

But I'll let the sim decide

coral marsh
#

ye i thought that head, shoulders, gloves and pants might be best for tier to get haste verse on the chest for free, but someone told me its not worth it to max out the chest for not getting haste on gloves

strong forum
#

It plays little to no role

#

You don't want haste/vers in every slot

coral marsh
#

ye i just need to plan ahead

strong forum

#

you dont want to convert your 304 haste verse chest to tier if its a fail

Why are guides recommending belt unity as bis instead of bracers which has less stats?

#

is it just not updated for crafted unity?

dawn canyon
#

probably not accounting for s4 ilvl

strong forum
#

Different people diff opinion

#

Belt is the only slot that you can't get at 311

#

So in the ultimate ilvl gain game, belt unity is best

#

But that requires you to fullclear every raid on mythic

#

Or well, get LOADS of mythic tokens and upgrade hc gear

#

So assmuning you can get easy access to 311s,belt is indeed best

coral marsh
#

how many bosses are required for one upgrade token

strong forum
#

20

#

Once all raids will be open you can get 1.5 upgrade tokens per week

#

Assuming you're on crack

#

And full clearing 3 mythic raids a week

#

But at that point half or 3/4th of the season will be already over

you get the new quest as soon as you finish the earlier one
