Cutoff gna be like 3.1k, maybe more
thats stil llow
maybe for eu xd
nah
Yes
unless people dont play alts
its already 2.9k
week 10 not too bad
This week it'll go above 3k
it's gonna stagnate after this week
100%
people haven't do shit with alts
People won't do shit with alts, and the last tyr week is gonna be massive
For the last people tryna push for max score and lots of people pushing for cutoff
what's the last tyr week
Scroll up like 5 messages
is it confirmed that the season is 12 weeks total?
No
No but its heavily speculated
Given that DF is supposed to release this year
so then the answer to "what is the last tyr week" is: "nobody knows"
And that this is supposed to be a short season
If season is 12 weeks that gives us 7 more weeks of this season
@sick sentinel Wanna come do some for fun keys?
That math doesn’t check out
Why wouldn't it, it lines up with 2 weeks pre-patch + df release this year

stop poach 
Im gonna speedrun this grimrail real quick
if gg leaves me i will go play league, this is a threat
ngl
didnt notice
i looked at top of leaderboard
usually u are there

Isn't leg in bracer also better for banner uptime with more neck haste?
thats an irrelevant amount of haste for banner
overthinking stats
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.
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
can you still use stygia socket for legendaries?
dont legendaries come with sockets
legendaries that can get sockets get them free
@sick sentinel Aight what am i inviting
a paladin 
@sick sentinel What is your bnet
how is the garrosh trinket from sanctum
probably is bugged
there was also a bunch of cn items that didnt wanna get socketed
will be fixed soonish ig
did he improve his banner uptime yet

not sure
Zamn
kept 100% uptime on the miniboss in streets
Full bis
right before last boss
also this is gamer asf
No mainstat :/ and crit
theres 3 other trinkets in sanctum youd much rather have
well 4
lmao i was thinking of OWS as the "garrosh trinket"
For lower keys its fine for doing more damage
smh
whats the fourth
thats saurfang 
the auto attack one?
i love sfa 
wonder if it sims weird
doesnt seem like it would
jk

LMFAO
should I dinar/upgrade defense matrix or the nine aegis
depends
if ur doing really high keys then do aegis
if ur not do matrix
really high as in like 26+
Disgusting, I want it
close enough :Sadge:
Disgusting, I want it
Well apart from that
one of our best ST apprently
Oof
What would you guys recommend for my 2nd trinket? I have OWS. Plan on doing a few early mythic bosses and maybe some keys in the 20-22 range.
RDM
smh
Bruh why being warr is bad for ppl , im having hard time into geting to 22 keys dk swarm is real
people want comfort meta picks
Absolutely not
Just don’t tell them to watch sense if he’s in upper
22 should be a cakewalk
lord have mercy
baby keys once again but i did a 12 ID just now some chad warrior
the most tragic thing i saw is m16 key names DK TANK for 16 WTF??????
very easy except he got really mad that with shaman and mage in group no lust for like, 20 seonds on first boss
yeah people demand meta dps for like, a 15 lmao
thats why ppal cant do streets above 13 !!!!!!
easiest big pulls in any dungeon
Hm
In our 24 nobody was even close to 20k
But yeah you cant do maiden corridor as 5 tanks XD
broom

Nvm apparently I had 19k, cro had 20 and klly 22k
lost to cro
sounding kinda washed there nomer
Hi guys did the pelagos souldbind change, it doesnt look the same as icyveins
pelagos is kyrian
doesnt matter go necro

kyrian is bad
To be precise, it was 20.4k from me, 21k vdh, 23.7k bdk
why number go up now

sussy
only 600 behind the purple class
Kyrian my fav tho just for flavor
Cuz I checked active dps

kyrian tastes like damage loss
also
massive one at that
if you really insist on playing the worse covenant
Uncapped aoe says hi
at least play the right soulbind
pelagos is stinky
at least play mik for spear CD
Pelagos is insanely weaker than mikanikos
Ok I will swap to Mikan
If you play kyrian, you literally can't play anything but mikan
ty

I like kyrian haha
Which is fine
But
Necro is inarguably better, but also harder and more demanding
But it's a game afterall
Ya
Can't do much wrong there
No
ok ty
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
How do I dismiss
Right click his buff
right click the buff
Bron is just a buff
ty 🙂
He can only pull by knocking mobs into other mobs by spawning
Or when you try to skip something and don't dismiss him
i think you can just ignore bron's aggro on stealth skips most of the time
he doesn't get you in combat iirc
Is there a free quest nowadays to just unlock all soulbinds without doing kyrian campaign
i'm 80 renown but 2/9 campaign
o
you haven't even tried kyrian warrior but you're committing to it
i respect the uhh
dedication i guess
love watching 30 tyrannical wreck rude sense's hp to... 95%
tanks are so insane right now that abilities either do literally 0 damage, or reduce you to 5% hp but it doesn't matter because you immediately full heal

Necro? No I don't think so, to hard for me
pff im still trynna get good at banner uptime
real warriors play venthyr
video in the pins helps
how good is the shield from junkyard?
ilevel only
so with mechagon rings giving verse, how much verse do we want to be sitting at ? im struggling to be above 450
effect is garbage and doesnt have stats
aww the effect sounds so fun too
but if its ilevel increase take it
shame its garbage
aparently it only procs like once per minute
i have the arrowbreaker shield from gd higher ilvl
ah that would make sense
there is no vers threshold
thought it would be amazing reading the tooltip about the blocking
dont worry about stats too much, really only stat we care about going for is haste. You DR on haste at around 40% unbuffed
so even if we only had 400 verse in a 25 key we would be ok ?
at lvl 300 item lvl ?
Is there a penalty for tanking the second boss in workshop directly next to a box?
I dont do 25 keys, but probably
im pushing 20s on it rn.
starting to get rekt. thought i might need more verse somehow
1200 unbuffed
thats pretty good, are you necro?
im doing +20 with 14 % verse
to check if i needed more verse somehow cause 400 feels like such a small number
whats your banner uptime?
idealy you want to move it away just to minimize risk of breaking box
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
idk banner uptime tbh
ye but how can the box explode i thought it was proximity based but it didnt happen
did it change?
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
and if one box falls directly into another is that a dps fail or rng
its rng but it coulda been prevented
It targets a random player
So could be anyone, including you if you were tanking close to the previous box
are you guys pulling all 4 packs in ukara this week on +20
or should i play it safe two pulls
ty for help adrednalin + coconut cat 🙂
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
ye just need to do two invis pot skips
grimrail and upper are both insanely forgiving timers
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
why do people call things "aids"
it's not like anyone's saying "damn this dungeon is pure syphilis"
totally chlamydia boss
Because using actual big words makes you sound like a snob
yeah but why an std at all
did I win big with that trinket?
Honestly no idea what the uptime is
But probably no
generally the no perma mainstat trinkets aren't worth looking at
ill have you know ive said something along those lines before damn you
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
Hey prot friends. when pushing 20+ mythic keys how do we choose between Aegis & RDM ?
Like what is the pros / cons of each
RDM's damage. You don't use Aegis unless you need it
and if you need to ask, you don't need it
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
i think the offical term is paladin

oh yeah, paladin's a slur i can get behind
🤝
Cant use that one from warriors
the only instances of aids i was ever related to in life was in heterosexual members of society, so it's literally just like
i don't understand how even though i know how
so what. RDM does damagge but Aegis is better defense ?
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
good on manaman
how so ? just more ST less ads ?
Medivh is scary
Man that dungeon is acquired immune deficiency syndrome
😂
7 stacks big sweet spot to be able to sustain yourself atleast on 25 fort
No one is falling for your shit lady
kk ty
may I ask some opinion on trinkets if I may be so bolster?
Sure
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?
Sack and soleahs probably depending on which of pieces can you upgrade?
@shadow haven
gloves, chest and wrist
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
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
Ye you can keep it as is and just upgrade your other pieces and while you do content you naturally get more ^^
would you really go 262 so'leahs over the other 2? im suprised
I think sack is 100%
Thats just me personally i prefer having soleahs instead of on use trinket
is it really a on use
when it doesn't share cd with trinket and you can just macro on something
Idk? You have to think when to use it tho
you only have to think if you wanna skip anything
soul cage is not on use either
Yeah but the effect is not high uptime so soleahs just gives more strength
And sack actually does good damage
if you macro scars it's pretty easy to randomly lose the final rune effect on rp or at the end of pulls etc
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
Its worldboss loot right?
ye
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
You can break that shield?
chimmi was saying something earlier that locks were like bugging it out or something
maybe thats actually what it is
It can cast it again, with two demos it just kept disappearing, with one it took a bit longer but it happened as long as imps were facing the shield
Probably takes like 20 hits to break but nobody is dumb enough to do it 
onlyimps 
missiles isn't THAT many damage instances, not much gets up to the size of a really big implosion
after they've all been shooting
yo what's Decanter of Endless Howling like on prot?
exactly as good as it sims
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
If it recasts it there is no other mechanics
Ye pmuch
Makes the fight a training dummy 
It's a training dummy anyway
almost all of the mechanics are physical damage
big yawn
does SR reduce the dmg of second boss Workshops big aoe?
Yes
it's surely magic damage yeah?
You can just los it
there's a positioning
where you can still hit it and be out of los
for your whole party
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
ill have to look into that one later
yeah practice it on a smaller key maybe
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
Kyrian or Necro for more damage in keys ?
necro
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
Ikr it seems like Itd be, but necros str mastery and constant rage feed into outburst is better
Thanks guys, i will go necro
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.
Gavel for off spec arms

Why play arms when you can play fury
DPS specs are too slow for me and I really dont enjoy it.
In comparison to Prot it is to me.
I don't have alts, just this Prot War.
About the same tbh
Prot is around 80
Scars
80 at least
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
i accidentally went into a 25 ws with scars
honestly didnt feel that bad since i never needed aegis

but it was awkward
I am liking my RDM, OWS is great as well.
If u are tanking its more easy to use scars than dps, because you know when u are doing a big pull
Tanks and pugs always pull just 3 mobs
Some bad groups you doing
its so easy to use scars as dps
Guild runs?
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
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?
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
for aegis its when there are a lot of damage instances hitting you
its pretty mid on ST slow hitting monsters like jailer
I got it from raid this week. Got OWS with dinars. Felt silly buying a 3rd trinket
Damn, actually got kinda close to @chrome falcon on mythic eye
One conduit I would kinda like to have is distrub the peace but that doesn't seem to be a thing?
my group couldnt get m eye last week doing it this weekend I think so we'll see
Oh, parses have been wild colors for us all tier lol.
was is so superior in the merilith soulbind?
Good luck we had roster issues or we would have been working on soulrender.
Marileth has Kevin.
But in all honesty hiemer and marileth are very close
any major issues with running this?
what would I lose / gain so to speak
or for me gain is conduits and some of the perks felt nice too
Inspiring Presence instead of disturb the peace.
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
Disturb the peace isn't actually all that great compared to a group CD
Safeguard is also superior to disturb the peace.
is there no scenario soulbind where I can get it without picking bad?
Not really.
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
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.
about that, the tooltip says nothing about gaining rage from intervene
is that some conduit or smt?
We will never give up our potency slots for another finesse
That's from reprisal our legendary
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
´first time necro, playng prot pala main, and both venthyr and kyrian have super relaxed options
Marileth is also technically tankier in the choices you have.
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 ❤️
Your welcome. Yeah I think everyone is looking forward to options with Dragonflight to avoid cookie cutter.
Also on another note I really did like Night Fae for Ancient Aftershock as a form of control on trash in M+
Necro is just so good with tier and double legendary now.
Enjoy
it happened
Go against the machine. Make your own build.

ye post it on reddit or wowforums
I saw goatface played with heavy repercussions in lower kara +29(dont remember)
I wonder whats the reason
No idea who that is.
Ask them.
They will probably give you some generic answer like "Uh, i felt like i needed more SB up-time".
Profit.
Ye i wish i knew who that is
Very talented player plays every tank at the 0.1% level
Oooook.
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
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.
Alright cool, thanks for the heads-up.
At what key level does it become necessary to run Sun King's trink?
🙂
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.
🤷
i like using old mans soul and shard
Can you macro victory rush, healthstone and health potion together?
probably but I wouldn't advise doing it
it will cast everything? aren't both vr and hs on the global?
If more than one of those is on the GCD, you can't do it.
I dont think healthstone is on the gcd
Maybe with a modifier?
I know healthpots are but im not certain about healthstones
never paid attention to that before
I mean, it would make sense since prot doesn't have any reliable self heal and its either hs or pots
Like Coconutcat said though, it's highly inadvisable to blow all your sustainability in one huge self-nuke heal when you may need one of them in a later pull or at a later stage in a raid boss fight
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?
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
You could actually bind them to the same key and set modifiers for each different thing, such as unmodified for victory rush, alt + key for pot and ctrl + key for HS
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
you talking like a priority cast?
victory rush, if not healthstone, if not healthpot
well victory rush isn't guranteed to be up when i need it
You can do it then. You're going to end up basically overhealing and wasting a lot of consumables in the process if there is no control mechanism in place to make sure that doesn't happen
I just told you that end results doesn't work for me either.
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?
I get that it isn't working to have it perfect like that but any middle ground?
if that would work? Epic
The macro is thus:
#showtooltip Victory Rush
/cast Victory Rush
/cast Healthstone
/cast <pot's name>
and bind that macro to a single button
sick, ty bro 🙂
thats the one that casts all 3 right
yeah
and it wont spam all 3 abilities at once?
does those castsequence macros work anymore?
Nope
they nuked them in BC or something
ahh, sucks 😦
cause there was a one button hunter cast sequence macro
yeah I cant really think of anything that would do the t rick
Disclaimer: This is fully assuming that the pot is actually on the GCD. If it is not, literally everything will pop at once
healing pot isnt on gcd
if they were on the gcd it would probably work tbh lol
bruh tanks use healing pots?
I usually dont cause that costs gold and im broke
Currently tanking 20's, have yet to use a heal pot. I do use cookies now and then though
ofc you use healing pots
ypu don't necesarily need them
but they are an improvement
so are strength potions
pre pot is something else
I would actually argue for str pots over heal pots
just healing pots
every time you die to a missed heal cast is a time you couldve survived with a healing pot
should have both
¯_(ツ)_/¯
But.... I don't die
ans use accordingly
This char is only 5 days old
110 days on my warrior 👀

Was this your main from cataclysm or MoP?
definitely not bfa
tbf I dont play really any alts
I actually played a warrior before that just didnt want to pay for a race change
I've lost count of my alts... but I still remember the character that started my journey back in Wrath. You never forget your first...
Is this applied by ST abilities or thunderclap as well?
new healing record
Should apply on any dmg sourced from you
on oshir we blinded rylak but when the boss reached 10 % blind timed out and we couldnt trap it
is that a bug?
did the trap timer end?
Did the mob have any debuff on it
so the mob has dr?
i guess someone just dotted it in panic
ok i heard if you are 9/9 covenant campaign on your main
lotta dps classes can dot with just an auto attack
then on your ALT, you can insta unlock all the soulbinds?
yep, that's right
Good morning, i gotta jump in as tank for my guild cause or main tank got sick. My GS should be more then enough for HC Raid. But i havent tanked with any class yet. Should i run Reprisal or The Wall? I checked the FAQ but just asking you what legendary you would recommend a new new tank player.
i'm 9/9 kyrian on my rogue, buit 2/9 on my weaerrior
but i want the last soulbind guy (mikos" on my warrior
you should just be able to talk to the soulbind NPCs and immediately turn in their quests
(this has to be on the same covenant)
Might as well start with Reprisal, it's overall much more powerful
Thats reprisal right?
thats the icon
Yeah
is there any must have macro for prot warri?

there is one must have macro
#showtooltip Spell Reflection
/cast Spell Reflection
/s istg if one of you dps kicks the goddamn cast
on who should i intervene as tank? the other tank?
tank or melee in range
either the other tank if you're currently tanking and it's ok for you to take a hit, or a melee
just intervene a range to pull boss out of wildspirits easier
ah right i was thinking like he gets the dmg i get. but its other way around
Shhh
curser heroic leap macro is pretty good tbh
haha got this dw
now i just gotta find out in 24H how 2play prot. which skills are my most importan etc
What does that macro do
isn't this thing super bad? it doesn't even proc every pull or smth iirc
getting yourself banned for spamming
yeah no one's gonna read your chat spam macro in time to not interrupt a spell
Not a bug, the rylak is flying so it never goes through the trap just flies over
forgot about the max1, yeah its terrible xD


They probably just missed the trap
It’s awkward
all of my abilities are macro'd to target @ your heart
execute my heart pls
its a coal train thats contributing to worsened climate
be the change you want to see in the world
boycott
Why? Best dungeon. I even voted for it and not playing s4 my self at all. Ahh great power of freedom.
but we're stopping the train and blowing it up
domestic terrorism isn't the solution
grimrail is completely aids and not because its hard because the entire dungeon is like being crammed in a locker with someones smelly gym clothes
thats better
ty
I think ill do gambit instead
murloc genocide is completely fine 
absolutely
Grimrail is very short and linear
Which is better than everbloom I guess
What were the other options
Ravager/Leap/Spear for me.
if i didnt move with mouse i probably would have them
but its just janky
and works fine without
i still backpedal otherwise i move with mouse ye
Aa.
I have right click held like 95% of the time
^
gambit obliterated
we 2 chested
coulda been a 3 tbh but there were a few mistakes
now I need lower and grimrail for my 20s 
im not really worried about either but it just sounds eh
ive done grimrail the least and lower is just about people not being idiots
I have these 2 to choose from. Overall, what will benefit me more?
More tankiness for magic dmg or more pew pew?
Always more pewpew. Thought you want the haste one ideally.
can any1 tell me right left middle?
Huh?
Change Unstoppable Force to Ravager (for m+) or Into the Fray (for raid) and you're good.
ty
Also
German (?) names are great
What's the full name for Anger Management in german?
That word looks long as hell.
"Aggressionsman.."
😂

I Cant use that spell.. why?
no shield or rage maybe?
oh it uses rage? ok
That's one of the benefits of playing Reprisal. Instant shield block with Charge.
If he didn't have a shield equipped the icon would be red
good to know... when i switch speccs i automatically equip shield, so never seen it
Hm, i would love a WA/Addon that tracks kicks but also lets you post in party whos off cd with like a Shiftclick
just like dbm/bigwigs bar shiftclicking
I cant really see the point in that
Unless youre trying to prevent people kicking at the same time
But still thats a hell to try and micro manage
My dps mates thinks that they should get shock bots first. Any truth to that statement?
The one with the most haste should get bots first
Yupp
But it doesn't matter if you play the good route, you'll get 4 bots instantly
Also true
5 if you have a person that can CC and drop combat
Noticed that a lot of healers don’t pick bots at all in low keys 😦
Lots of people don't
they are probably told dps need rhem to pump is my guess
Friend did a 21 where only 2 people had shockbots
Wow
i did junkyard like 2 or 3 times as mage baby keys below 15, and i got a shock bots max of 3 times total
like total bots, not dungeons spent hunting and collecting them
im already low dps as is, dont wanna get confused with the timer going bork it
MW?
I know a lot of healers that hate the idea of doing dps
under 15 dps healer does not exist
medivh, tyrannical weeks 🥲
"LETS MAKE A KICK ORDER HAR HAR DURR DURR"
never works
under 15 key is unga bunga 4head me tank u healer them dps hold w brrr gg
gave up on wat
prot warrior atm
y tho
because this is all i played from 8.0 to now effectively
does this include the tank?
yeah
merci
im gunna go nuts if i dont try something else or classic
it passively procs in combat
I had more haste than a SP in my last gambt 24, not sure if there are any classes with more unbuffed haste than us? 😄
oh I thought it procced off attacks
nice
Bdk has more haste
either that or proccs from healers healing
i think that bdks and pwars are the best bot holders
i usually have the most shock bot damage at the end of the key
so it's not a proc from damage? It's just a passive incombat rppm?
not sure, healers deal big damage just from doing almost nothing
and priests just press smite and holy fire so, not much clicks per minute or apm or much to procc from
idk i pressing my buttons a lot on my resto druid
disgusting how hard i have to work to match the dmg of vesper totem
bro wtf i've put en engineer invis on my belt and now I can't put a socket on it ? Was this ever a thing ?
nah that shouldnt be a problem
what conduits do we use as prot?
i'm using the item to make a socket in the belt so i can put a gem in it
On one belt that isn't being enchant with the invis engineer thingi t says that i can (on theb ag)
on the other belt that i currently equipepd BUT i've put the invis engineer enchant on it it says that i can't
i mean
that should not be a problem but what i know
it's black/grey whatever
Bugged utem
u can have a socket and a belt enchant, yes
it will not override the socket and vica verca, you putting gem in belt won't remove engineer enchant.
it may require you to take the belt off into your bags and then use the item in your bags to add socket to the belt in your bags then equip
doesn't work sadly
perhaps u have to buy a mount first
Yeah, try to buy a mount from the store dude

yeah i think i get a lvl 70 boost with my free mount if i like classic enough
cuz the joke is i'd only buy that for the mount
how much tankier does necro banner make you, is the difference that huge compared to like kyrian?
Haven't had the time to actually practise my rotation for uptime on banner, so i just went with kyrian for my 15/16 keys, which went fine, but I definetly wanna go conq banner
idk that it's even that different from kyrian
I think you're still trying to cycle rage as fast as you can as kyrian there's just less gain from it compared to NL
You don’t need a covenant, tier, or legendaries for 15s
very true
But necrolord makes you massively tankier
that big of a difference if i actually learn to play it?
24% str is a huge amount of tankiness
will be practising tonight
It def feels different to me
It’s a big difference compared to
fair
Sucks when I have to run from pack to pack and it drops 😔
… no defensive benefit
last time i played i had like 36% and was like, i need to practise this before i will actually benifit from it hah
That’s why you bring the pack closer to the next one
Well the thing is
Yea just def gotta get better about that
sitll new to prot, always played arms
Havent tanked in a long time
Generating and spending rage is all you need to do on this class to start with
The playstyle is the exact same
For sure for sure
just have to play more : P
less punishing?
ah
It’s just worse

The idea that Kyrian is for bad players and necro is for good ones is just false
Bad necro lord players get 40% banner uptime
Kyrian players get 0% banner uptime
Wow don’t gotta come at my banner uptime like that 👀
Nah I’m getting closer to around 80?
Still not great 😔
My biggest mistake
Is def reprisal
Shit is hard 😔
Your warlock must be disappointed that he doesn't have 100% uptime on his flag mastery buff
Normally I am the warlock so I know the feeling and feel ashamed
right in the feels but i know its true 😂
fuck
gotta git gud
Don't use slam
to just get the rotation into my head
and muscles
should help massively
worked for every other class / spec so far
u will see that playing necrolord makes a lot more sense with regard to tier set
Yea just meant go use it 😂
its a really fun and strong tier set since it rewards playing well
no it doesnt count towards your covernant lego
but indirectly yes
since u have chance for SS reset
Do I buy RDM or Aegis with my Dinars? I mainly M+ tank but do some raid tanking.
What key lvls?
Running like 20-25 at the moment
rdm is more braindead
No need for aegis at that key lvl
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).
sorry kind of big question. idk if this was right way to ask.
0 need for ageis at that lvl
Codex is a %, RDM is a flat amount
The pin already explains alot
That’s the very short answer
Rdm has a fixed value for a full absorb codex is only a drop into the bucket
I’m not sure I totally understand your question about aegis
Shield block/ IP will reduce the hit, aegis absorbs whatever is left
At what level does Aegis become better than RDM? I am looking to push higher on my warrior, just at that level for now.
Idk, 28?29?
so when using aegis, for tanks that are doing like 30's and i see atone of prots using aegis in those. do they use aegis when they do have shield block up or when shield block is down?
The 2 are diff trinkets
Aegis is pure defense
Rdm is decent defense and alot of dps
47k dtps at 50% codex uptime and zero hasted pp on rdm.
is when codex can compete
so uh
good luck
heh
You wanna use both, but aegis helps also cover the downtime
u said hasted peepee
big pp
Depends on situation
tru
You really never want to get hit without SB up but aegis can sometimes cover downtime
hasted pp can lead to big pp
Like 28-30, probably has value in a 24 tyran upper tho for mediveh and just mediveh
esp with this seazon's bounty
Aegis is also good on mana devourer*
You can’t really just make an equation for when to use what trinket active
Big shtackies
It’s all reactive and situational
Sometimes you need to use it during SB sometimes you don’t
It All comes down to preference
you 100% can, on offensive trinkets
just sim

its basically when you know youre gonna get fucking slapped
someone hit this guy with a chatting I don’t have it
a defensive trinket is used in place of a class cd
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.
Big dam incoming? Use aegis
Aegis should be used similar ly to wall
Anyone using codex at any level on this class is just wrong
^
On cd except if big pull is coming up
Period
@clever heart do you do 28 or 30+ keys?
There is no level where codex is good
codex is never good on prot warrior
It's just a pit that most of the high rio people fell into
"alot of high rio people use codex, so I also must use codex"
it is or it isn't
That situation got out of hand
context is everything
the limiting factor in m+ is always the damage output in the griup
lol nope. im hard capped at 22's on blood dk rn. im just curoius why i see a player using it when the math says they shouldnt.
if you can increase the damage by pulling bigger or faster by using a suboptimal trinket
Cuz they don't know, and don't trust those that have done the math
Good at keys =/= good at theory/class
It's a vicious cycle
then overall it can be a viable choice
technically u never want to use aegis over rdm and ows but u will have to eventually
mostly misinformed or feelycraft things
lol ok ya makes sense just checking.
Codex has gotten to the point of becoming a political discussion
difference doesnt really make or break the key just minor optimzation
It's real sad
