Scroll up like 5 messages

is it confirmed that the season is 12 weeks total?

oblique garnet
#

No

strong forum
#

No but its heavily speculated

minor helm
strong forum
#

Given that DF is supposed to release this year

rotund sluice
#

so then the answer to "what is the last tyr week" is: "nobody knows"

strong forum
#

And that this is supposed to be a short season

minor helm
#

If season is 12 weeks that gives us 7 more weeks of this season

Isn't leg in bracer also better for banner uptime with more neck haste?

lofty widget
#

thats an irrelevant amount of haste for banner

coral marsh
#

And while you don't want haste verse in every slot, weapons, rings, 2 tier sets, cloak and bracer can already not be 304 dungeon haste verse.

cobalt seal
#

if you spend less time looking at what stats drops from dungeon and go to a dummy and increase banner uptime. It would be 100% better time spent

No

ok ty

mighty valley

if you jump down platforms or whatever you can dismiss him

so his weird pathing doesn't pull anything

The only time bron can aggro is during stealth skips

edgy bone

How do I dismiss

strong forum
#

Right click his buff

mighty valley
#

right click the buff

strong forum
#

Bron is just a buff

edgy bone
#

ty 🙂

strong forum
#

He can only pull by knocking mobs into other mobs by spawning

#

Or when you try to skip something and don't dismiss him

edgy bone
#

oh i dont have anyone but pelagos unlocked

#

dang

distant crystal
#

i think you can just ignore bron's aggro on stealth skips most of the time

#

he doesn't get you in combat iirc

edgy bone
#

Is there a free quest nowadays to just unlock all soulbinds without doing kyrian campaign

i'm 80 renown but 2/9 campaign

if you've done the campaign on another toon yes

if not no

Is there a penalty for tanking the second boss in workshop directly next to a box?

undone verge

im pushing 20s on it rn.

starting to get rekt. thought i might need more verse somehow

currently im doing 20s with 13% verse without issues

whats ur haste?

1200 unbuffed

thats pretty good, are you necro?

clever heart

ya

im sure its a sskill issue nota stat issue

but i jus wanted

coral marsh

im doing +20 with 14 % verse

clever heart

to check if i needed more verse somehow cause 400 feels like such a small number

undone verge
#

whats your banner uptime?

undone verge
#

and there might be something about it exploding doing dmg to nearby players but I dont know for sure on that

#

safer to just pull it away

clever heart
#

idk banner uptime tbh

coral marsh
#

ye but how can the box explode i thought it was proximity based but it didnt happen

#

did it change?

mighty valley
#

Pull it away so your dps don’t have to walk too far to avoid exploding it

#

It’s just the leap that breaks it

coral marsh
#

and if one box falls directly into another is that a dps fail or rng

undone verge
#

its rng but it coulda been prevented

mighty valley
#

It targets a random player

#

So could be anyone, including you if you were tanking close to the previous box

coral marsh
#

are you guys pulling all 4 packs in ukara this week on +20

#

or should i play it safe two pulls

clever heart
#

ty for help adrednalin + coconut cat 🙂

undone verge
#

np

#

4 is probably doable this week just watch out for raging

#

I just do them separate since upper kara timer is a joke

#

we timed a 20 Upper kara after full wiping on mana devo with 50k health left

coral marsh
#

ye just need to do two invis pot skips

mighty valley
#

grimrail and upper are both insanely forgiving timers

undone verge
#

lowers timer is pretty good too

#

wouldnt say its on grim and uppers level tho

sick sentinel
#

feels pretty easy this week

#

should be a good week if you want to push

undone verge
#

lowers pretty easy

#

forks on first boss are a bit scary but nothing else really sticks out on it

#

I did not ask for this

coral marsh
#

uppers is just fortified

#

on tyrannical its pure aids

mighty valley
#

why do people call things "aids"

#

it's not like anyone's saying "damn this dungeon is pure syphilis"

#

totally chlamydia boss

oblique garnet
mighty valley
#

yeah but why an std at all

shadow haven
#

did I win big with that trinket?

mighty valley
#

and then there's people that say "wheelchair"

#

that shit sucks

oblique garnet
#

But probably no

mighty valley
#

generally the no perma mainstat trinkets aren't worth looking at

pallid quiver
mighty valley
#

yknow, i respect it more than saying "aids"

#

clown's good

#

evocative

pallid quiver
#

i start with aids, then spin off into other STDs as necessary from there to distinguish things

#

because aids is the everyday common one to say, so it sets the tone

#

then i get to flex creativity

clever heart
#

Hey prot friends. when pushing 20+ mythic keys how do we choose between Aegis & RDM ?
Like what is the pros / cons of each

pallid quiver
#

RDM's damage. You don't use Aegis unless you need it

#

and if you need to ask, you don't need it

mighty valley
#

i just grew up when people would mostly talk about aids to make fun of gay people, so it still feels pretty shitty to me

dawn canyon

#

oh yeah, paladin's a slur i can get behind

damn pinks

oblique garnet
#

Cant use that one from warriors

pallid quiver
clever heart
pallid quiver
#

Aegis is pretty much 8 seconds of invulnerability

#

you need it if you need it; if you don't need it, RDM's better due to clearing faster and making the run more likely to time

Aegis big value in upper

shadow haven
#

may I ask some opinion on trinkets if I may be so bolster?

oblique garnet
#

Sure

shadow haven
#

So I got the trinket I just posted, 291 ticking sack of horror which I cant upgrade more since I need rating, 272 scars of fraternal strife and 262 so'leahs technique which I could upgrade to 291 but the valor could also be spent on plenty of other sutff, what would you do in this situation?

oblique garnet
#

Sack and soleahs probably depending on which of pieces can you upgrade?

#

@shadow haven

shadow haven
oblique garnet
#

Id upgrade chest first and then w/e you have left spend on gloves

#

Use the soleahs in dungeons and raids to get haste from someone

shadow haven
#

but I have to choose

#

soleahs is 262 and I only have so much valor

#

I can go farm ofc

#

but for the time being

oblique garnet
#

Ye you can keep it as is and just upgrade your other pieces and while you do content you naturally get more ^^

shadow haven
#

would you really go 262 so'leahs over the other 2? im suprised

#

I think sack is 100%

oblique garnet
#

Thats just me personally i prefer having soleahs instead of on use trinket

cobalt seal
#

when it doesn't share cd with trinket and you can just macro on something

oblique garnet
cobalt seal
#

you only have to think if you wanna skip anything

shadow haven
#

soul cage is not on use either

oblique garnet
#

Yeah but the effect is not high uptime so soleahs just gives more strength

#

And sack actually does good damage

mighty valley
#

if you macro scars it's pretty easy to randomly lose the final rune effect on rp or at the end of pulls etc

shadow haven
#

they could have easily made the trinket just automatically swap but they made it on use on purpose so you could control the final rune and so on

#

this soul cage trinket is apperantly so irellevant its not on any sims or guides but regular mythic trinkets from shadowlands dungeons and legion timewalking trinkets are there

oblique garnet
#

Its worldboss loot right?

shadow haven
#

ye

cinder storm
#

So I think I have an idea about streets first boss, it's shield breaks on hits taken, demon locks keep resetting it, with two demo it's almost non existent

#

You can see the imps going pew pew on the shield then it breaks

chrome falcon
#

You can break that shield?

drifting fable
#

chimmi was saying something earlier that locks were like bugging it out or something

#

maybe thats actually what it is

cinder storm
oblique garnet
#

Probably takes like 20 hits to break but nobody is dumb enough to do it keksquad

#

missiles isn't THAT many damage instances, not much gets up to the size of a really big implosion

Doesnt it reflect tho

Isnt the name like reflective barrier or smth

median tulip
#

It's called "rotary body armor"

#

you can break it (it work on damage, not hits), but TBQH it's easier just to move to where it's not

oblique garnet
#

If it recasts it there is no other mechanics

#

Ye pmuch

#

Makes the fight a training dummy yep

median tulip
#

It's a training dummy anyway

#

almost all of the mechanics are physical damage

#

big yawn

undone verge
#

does SR reduce the dmg of second boss Workshops big aoe?

oblique garnet
#

Yes

mighty valley
#

it's surely magic damage yeah?

oblique garnet
#

You can just los it

undone verge
#

well yes but thats a dps loss

#

I much prefer to just IP through it

mighty valley
#

there's a positioning

#

where you can still hit it and be out of los

#

for your whole party

delicate iron
#

It's not typical LOS, if you're close to box you get a buff which makes you immune to dmg and you can still attack

#

Same way if you try to LOS but you are too far away from box you still get hit

undone verge
#

ill have to look into that one later

mighty valley
#

yeah practice it on a smaller key maybe

delicate iron
#

You want boss in 1 corner and you stand near the other corner along the same edge, a few videos on YT explain it in details but you're basically fishing for a buff which makes you immune (same icon as shadowmeld). There's a WA for that too obviously

olive rock
#

Kyrian or Necro for more damage in keys ?

drifting fable
#

necro

olive rock
#

Really ? i tought that kyrian was so much stronger for damage

#

Thanks man

nah, if you play correctly you get a constant strength buff from banner which is huge for tanking and damage

#

check the vids in the pins for tips

undone verge
olive rock
#

Thanks guys, i will go necro

undone verge
#

Plus it allows you to get avatar more often which is straight 30% increased dmg

Think highest buff uptime I’ve gotten from avatar is 60%

I bought OWS and RDM with my first two Dinars. Not sure what to buy with my third. I do not Mythic raid nor push keys above high teens.

Why play arms when you can play fury

Fury is slow

In comparison to Prot it is to me.

Highest apm dps class

About the same tbh

Idk if fury is 90-100 APM

It’s up there but idk if it’s prot levels

onyx vessel
#

Prot is around 80

undone verge
#

80 at least

onyx vessel
#

Scars is too hard to use

#

Rdm would probably do more dmg

#

Free dmg and healing

Kinda crack

#

5% of dmg overall at 278 in a key

10% healing

its so easy to use scars as dps

Why would you wanna use a use trinket when you can run rdm and ows

Pull more then

By tanking keys

Thats is what im trying

sonic crag
#

What's the best way to get value from aegis? Just like a delayed scale from before?

#

Like, clearly only use when it's going to break the absorb, right?

mighty valley
#

The cap part doesn't matter at all, that's just when it triggers damage

#

It's literally just, am I taking a lot of damage in the next 8 seconds? would i rather be invincible?

#

slap that button

urban portal
#

for aegis its when there are a lot of damage instances hitting you

#

its pretty mid on ST slow hitting monsters like jailer

was is so superior in the merilith soulbind?

vernal vale
vernal vale
#

But in all honesty hiemer and marileth are very close

tender cove
#

what would I lose / gain so to speak

#

or for me gain is conduits and some of the perks felt nice too

vernal vale
#

Inspiring Presence instead of disturb the peace.

tender cove
#

fuck, i didnt even see it myself. I tried to get both of those. I want the 11s cd on shockwave

#

would make it really nice

vernal vale
#

Disturb the peace isn't actually all that great compared to a group CD

tender cove
#

what about swithing the internve one for shockwave one?

#

and keep inspiring?

vernal vale
#

Safeguard is also superior to disturb the peace.

tender cove
#

is there no scenario soulbind where I can get it without picking bad?

vernal vale
#

Not really.

tender cove
#

and we would never pick the talent either. I just feel like 28sec shockwave would be pretty ideal toolkit in m+

#

can you explain why its not? So i learn. Its new alt for me but old main from many expos ago

vernal vale
#

It is great but it's just outclassed. Inspiring makes a group CD stronger.
Safeguard is amazing because we use intervene on CD for reprisal.

tender cove
#

about that, the tooltip says nothing about gaining rage from intervene

#

is that some conduit or smt?

vernal vale
#

We will never give up our potency slots for another finesse

vernal vale
tender cove
#

ohh, my bad

#

and why is the merlitih one superior to the others?

vernal vale
#

Marileth has 3 potency.

#

Hiemer technically Sims higher but you need to play good to actually do it and it's only by a few hundred dps

tender cove
#

´first time necro, playng prot pala main, and both venthyr and kyrian have super relaxed options

vernal vale
#

Marileth is also technically tankier in the choices you have.

tender cove
#

okok, i'll just not try to reinvent the wheel or try and play around with my own thoughts and just follow the cookie cutter, bit sad but def smartest and best

#

Thanks for the crash course @vernal vale ❤️

Old Warrior's Soul is touted as a great trinket, which it probably is, but why do I see a ton of prot warriors running the Sun King cheat death trinket? Does Old Warrior's Soul still win above that trinket in 20+? In a strictly M+ context

ionic fern
#

Okay, lets think this through together.
-One of them provides haste which is a overall great stat for us in all situation
-The other one prevents you from dying

Am i doing content that is dangerous enough where i need the cheat death trinket? - If yes, use it.
Otherwise don't use it.

20 keys are definitely not warranting cheat death trinket.

#

Why they think they need it, idk.
People are also using codex although it's crap.

queen stag
#

Alright cool, thanks for the heads-up.

At what key level does it become necessary to run Sun King's trink?

ionic fern
#

🙂

#

There is no set key level for it.

#

You really don't NEED it - it's just a failsafe.

#

Sense is doing keys in the 25-30 area and he's not using it.

Can you macro victory rush, healthstone and health potion together?

undone verge
#

probably but I wouldn't advise doing it

tender cove
#

it will cast everything? aren't both vr and hs on the global?

queen stag
undone verge
#

I dont think healthstone is on the gcd

cinder storm
#

Maybe with a modifier?

lament shell
#

wtf

#

pots are off of gcd

undone verge
#

I know healthpots are but im not certain about healthstones

#

never paid attention to that before

tender cove
#

I mean, it would make sense since prot doesn't have any reliable self heal and its either hs or pots

queen stag
tender cove
#

and having them in one button, and use VR if its there, if not HS, and if not available, use potion, dont matter if I would have to spam button several times

#

is that possible?

undone verge
#

problem is for the situation where you have healthpot healthstones but you just want to use victory rush to go from 70-100 and you end up overhealing by 80% of your health

#

or when your at 50 and want to healthstone back to full for some high incoming dmg and end up in the same situation

queen stag
tender cove
#

yeh, ofc it cant use all 3 at once, that would be retaraded

#

Nah, i wanted it to just be 1 keybind since warrior healing doesnt really exist

undone verge
#

you talking like a priority cast?

#

victory rush, if not healthstone, if not healthpot

tender cove
#

well victory rush isn't guranteed to be up when i need it

queen stag
tender cove
undone verge
#

well thats the if not, so like if VR is available it casts only Victory rush, but if its not it casts health pot, but if thats not available it casts healthstone?

tender cove
#

I get that it isn't working to have it perfect like that but any middle ground?

queen stag
#

The macro is thus:

#showtooltip Victory Rush
/cast Victory Rush
/cast Healthstone
/cast <pot's name>

and bind that macro to a single button

tender cove
#

sick, ty bro 🙂

undone verge
#

thats the one that casts all 3 right

queen stag
tender cove
#

and it wont spam all 3 abilities at once?

queen stag
#

It will if they are not on GCD

#

That's the issue

undone verge
#

im pretty sure healthstone isnt on gcd

#

VR is the only one I believe

queen stag
#

Yeah so it will use VR + HS

#

If you tap again, it will use the pot

tender cove
#

does those castsequence macros work anymore?

queen stag
#

Nope

undone verge
#

they nuked them in BC or something

tender cove
#

ahh, sucks 😦

#

queen stag
undone verge

healing pot isnt on gcd

That's why I add modifiers when I macro bind

I would actually argue for str pots over heal pots

Wait can someone explain to me why Streets trinket is bad on Prot warrior but RDM is somehow good ? Wasnt Streets trinket bad cause the damage wouldnt work with shield block. but doesnt RDM work same way ?

Also even though I know we dont use Aegis as often as other tanks can anyone explain to me how Aegis interacts with abilities like Shield block + Ignore pain ?
If we use Aegis at the same time that we have Shield block up & ignore pain shield up, does the incoming damage we take get absorbed by Aegis or does it get blocked by shield block ?

(currently doing 20's on warrior and hoping to do up to 25's alt keys this season on him. really confused about some of these interactions though, I main other tank specs).

ok. and just checking, I've read the pin and understand streets trinket is way worse on prot warrior than other tanks. but when i check top rated prot warrior keys on raider io, there were a few 28+ keys where a prot warrior used a streets trinket.
Obviously codex scales on key level cause it is uncapped.
basically im just curious if this player likely only used streets cause he doesn't have anything better yet OR if for the people doing 30+ keys if codex can become legitimately the correct choice.
