I want to see if I can do a 15 in a full group with no legendaries, covenants or trinkets

topaz field
#

u can see it in some logs even 31 codex is a dps loss over other trinkets (and im speaking of bdk)

chrome falcon
#

Just to show how little it all matters

brittle owl
#

buying super high end gear to just start playing a sport

strong forum
#

I can confidently say that alot of the Super high end people are actually playing based on feelycraft

#

That's how the whole vers and codex thing came to be

#

It's pure feelycraft

distant crystal
#

who needs sims when you can just look at the meters and disregard the lack of primary stat

brittle owl
#

feelycraft > theorycraft don't @ me

clever heart
#

i just kinda wanted to check because when you ask the blood discord they tell you, never use codex RDM is always better.
but then when you look at what trinkets tanks are using in 26+ keys as blood dk they almost all use codex instead of rdm. so obviously the answer isnt that rdm is always better, and that if you were to do high enough keys codex can become more beneficial especially on fortified weeks.

strong forum
#

Uhm

#

Rdm is always better for bdk

#

Sorry to burst that bubble

clever heart
#

lol wait wat

strong forum
#

Yes.

distant crystal
strong forum
#

Codex is only actually good for vdh

topaz field
#

to give u an example in 31 gambit (fortifide)

#

a bdk did 6 % of his overall with codex

#

and lost 7 % mainstat

strong forum
#

^

south zealot
#

yeah no mainstat makes it super sadge

topaz field
#

not to mention the defensive benefit he loses

strong forum
#

For bdk, if you run codex, you lose 6-7% dps and survivability

distant crystal
#

our bdk in raid was saying he wants rdm beacause it beats codex in single target

#

i'm like my man it beats codex everywhere

clever heart
# strong forum Codex is only actually good for vdh

wait 100% not even trying to correct you. i just want to become a better player and use what loot i think will help me most.
if RDM is always better than why are players using Codex instead ? like the vast majority on here are.
just trying to understand.

distant crystal
#

but he pushed 30s and i push 22s so there's no shot he's gonna hear it

strong forum
#

Yes the vast majority of bdk players is in the wrong to use codex, as said in my updated pin. Its a comfort pick

distant crystal
#
  1. codex is easier to get, by a lot
hazy edge
chrome falcon
#

Because they’re wrong

topaz field
#

but i dont understand how literally every single tank in TGP played codex

distant crystal
#
  1. codex looks better on the meters
south zealot
#

codex was super hyped last season

topaz field
#

i was expecting more brains there

strong forum
#

Nah

chrome falcon
#

You see the majority of people on codex so you would use codex and become part of the majority

misinformed and/or stubborn

everyone last season was like omg this tank trinket is so good

shut summit

so then ppl started using it and it went up the food chain

Like I said

distant crystal

reminds me of the top outlaws in BFA vs the outlaw TCs

It's a vicious cycle of "well if everybody uses it, I must do so too"

#

Go ask anybody why they use codex

errant oriole
#

is there a spread sheet for the blockable and spell reflect spells?

strong forum
#

They can't give any answer but "i feel tankier"

lofty widget
#

"it does huge dmg"

distant crystal
#

I guess there could be a case in like high tyrannical with tankbuster mechanics if the codex stam makes the difference but seems sus

topaz field
#

thats also feelycraft

errant oriole
#

thanks you

clever heart
topaz field
#

why should flat health save u if u have less defensive power

toxic pewter
#

I did this same argument months ago- its just wrong- just because someone is 'at the top' using codex does not make it correct

distant crystal
#

i mean RDM isn't much defensive power for a single attack

drifting fable
#

yeah thats already been said like 3 times too so not sure what else theyre missing

distant crystal
#

it's more of a tank dps trinket than anything lol

#

that also does some cool trickle healing throughout the dungeon

#

but so is codex

shut summit
distant crystal
#

i'm just trying to steelman/play devils advocate for the codex enjoyers

south zealot
#

20h total and stl brought it in tgp

distant crystal
#

one single big hit tankbuster that just barely overkills you without codex's stamina would be the best case for it over RDM

topaz field
#

ive seen rdm doing 1-2 % less overall (pure dmg output) then if u count in the massive primariy stat increase over codex u have your answer

How long does banner have to last to over take bastion spear?

15 seconds

I go necro for tank good or bad

#

Can I just say. Ravenger is a cool ass ability

minor helm
#

Disgusting

oblique garnet

#

When playing ravager and merciless bonegrinder, is it a dps loss to (on st) whirlwind over revenge because of less SS resets?

strong forum
#

It's even a dps loss to do so in aoe

#

So yeah, don't play bonegrinder

lusty tiger
#

Whirlwind on prot

#

New meta

jagged pier
#

its not new

#

we tried it already

#

it does the same if not less

#

and the play style is ass

strong forum
#

I played like 1-2 keys with it, it's fun to press WW with the proc up, but your overall dmg will suffer and your banner uptime is gonna be omega hard to manage cuz you gotta pool rage for the bonegrinder proc for it to be not a complete dps loss

#

Very hard to maintain banner for 2min with playing bonegrinder

south zealot
lusty tiger
#

Certainly just some casual chatting

#

Whirlwind can smd

wintry nymph
#

this a good setup?

#

or go i get other ones / go marileth

chrome falcon
#

If you can’t keep banner up then you know you’re already doing a lot of stuff wrong

wintry nymph
#

and where does this fucker drop cuz level 200 is definetly not high enough

#

got the rest atleast 265+

chrome falcon

Can buy it at 278 for 10k flux

south zealot

Let’s be real there are some long rp or intermissions

south zealot

name those bosses

vernal vale
lusty tiger
#

Ur mom

south zealot
#

you can have full uptime for wgen it matters on sylv

#

i think

#

maybe switch between p2 and p3 it might drop

vernal vale
#

since it was gonna be forced to drop anyways while they RP talk

lusty tiger
#

I’m not claiming u can’t on every boss, but since I’ve only done most bosses 1-2 times I don’t have my timing planned out well yet, like on blood council I can’t tell u how many times I popped a fresh banner before we danced

Do we have dinar prio posted anywhere?

toxic pewter
#

on warcraftlogs, anyone know what "Key %" means in the rankings tab?

#

is it similar to raid ilvl %

south zealot
#

parsing

#

for your key

#

level

#

like compared to other people at the same key level

toxic pewter
#

then what is the ranking mean

south zealot
#

wdym

toxic pewter
#

rank %

#

vs key %

south zealot
#

parsing for all keys i think

#

all key levels

toxic pewter
#

i see

#

so the key % is really what matters

south zealot
#

neither really matters honestly

toxic pewter
#

if judging a single run for a key

vernal vale
south zealot
#

your banner uptime and blocked hits % will tell you if you did good

toxic pewter
#

ok

#

the ranking is purely dps right

vernal vale
#

So you can play like ass in a 25 and rank incredibly well since most players never go above 15

south zealot
#

if you selected dps

#

theres points dps healing speed

fervent kestrel
#

Does anybody have a list for Dinar priority? D:

south zealot
#

old warrior soul then reactive defense matrix

vernal vale
#

third is preferance

south zealot
#

then a shield or shard of annhyldes aegis probably

vernal vale
#

aegis really only if you plan to run high keys

#

like 25+

jagged pier
#

please dont waste dinars on aegis

#

its so easy to get

south zealot
#

yeah ows and rdm are the two best

#

after those 2 id probably grab gavel or jaithys for offspec personally

fervent kestrel
#

I haven’t touched a DPS or healing spec in 17 years 😬

vernal vale
#

got a 304 shield already so that means i need a mythic upgrade token before shield would have been worth

#

still have a normal run this week to try and get aegis

im doing something wrong in rotation

Mattacate does an excellent job explaining it.

wintry nymph

i have, but will do again

vernal vale
#

all about making use of last stand and just masshing the rage spenders/generators

mighty valley
#

It is slightly easier in reality when you can intervene

vernal vale
#

Also true

mighty valley
#

Although you're more likely to mess things up with more stuff to think about

drifting fable
#

if you have a log that can help pinpoint specifics

tender cove

Stupid question, but where do I find dummies SL?

ah didn't see that macro that he uses there, that one is sweet

#

im such a noob on prot 😂

vernal vale
drifting fable
#

the macro is fine for pull but yeah you absolutely dont need it

vernal vale
#

It can definitely help as you are figuring it out though

chrome falcon
#

^

#

it says me like 2 buttons presses every 10 minutes

tender cove
#

The macro made my pulls a lot easier tbh, its so much to think about.

chrome falcon
#

just comfy

drifting fable
#

if youre saying youre forgetting to avatar and LS on banner in general, that could be an issue

tender cove
#

And the video was really good matta, you make it look so easy xD

drifting fable
#

but again after a certain point youll just need a log to really figure out where youre going wrong

tender cove
vernal vale
#

I've found getting used to hitting all your rage generators with a CD should just be second nature gotta feed the rage machine

drifting fable
#

it helps for sure. just dont forget to be pressing LS and avatar when you dont need that macro

lusty tiger
#

Kinda feels like pressing covenant ability on prot pala (banner/ls/avatar on war)

tender cove
lusty tiger
#

Where ur rotation is spend spend spend

tender cove
lusty tiger
#

Why not

tender cove
#

Because there's no real setup, you just pop wings+DT and spam sotrs.

lusty tiger
#

Ok

toxic pewter
#

I really really hate shade of medivh

lusty tiger
#

Pop banner/ls/avatar spam spenders and ss procs

drifting fable
#

theres not really setup to slamming LS and avatar immediately to be fair

#

hence why you can just macro it lol

south zealot
#

i wouldnt macro any ability together

drifting fable
#

eh

lofty widget
#

Its fine

drifting fable
#

that macro is fine

lusty tiger
#

It is very clutch

south zealot
#

ls and avatar??

drifting fable
#

intervene/charge is the only macro i hard recommend

south zealot
#

thats super wirdo honestly

drifting fable
#

LS avatar and banner

south zealot
#

weird

lofty widget
#

As long as you have access to the individual spells on other keybinds

drifting fable
#

for on pull only

lusty tiger
#

No banner,ls,avatar

drifting fable
#

if you were reading

south zealot
#

ph if you have different buttons for each ability that makes sense

#

i thought u meant just macro tthose together and call it a day

lusty tiger
#

Nahhh

drifting fable
#

ya oh god dont make that your only way to hit those

lusty tiger
#

Trolling

#

Lmao

#

Ascended banner gameplay isn’t looking for your next banner in 2 min it’s looking for your next LS in a pack with banner up

Getting to that last boss every dungeon on prot is pure dopamine

Just baseline lust

south zealot

zul gamux is so bedge

lusty tiger

But he has important haste for me

And skipping with pugs is the best way to deplete keys I have found

Idk man topping dps is fun

toxic pewter

I like zul gamux personally

I like the stats

south zealot

i hate it

its so fucking boring

lusty tiger
#

It is boring

#

And the leech is cringe

toxic pewter
#

im convinced the skipping of zul gamux is not as much of a time saver as one may think

#

the 6% stats on every member is no joke

south zealot

especially when dps save cds for boss

lusty tiger
south zealot

the mandatory arms

south zealot
#

arms is pretty fun rn

#

i remember hating it in legion

lusty tiger
#

Yea I wish I played arms more

minor helm
#

Yeah I remember week 1 when zul sucked a lot of ass he never felt that bad cause of the lower healing

lusty tiger
#

But I hate dps in pugs it is the worst role to pug 99% time

minor helm
#

But I’d watch guildies have him heal for like 20% each time

lusty tiger
#

Healer or a tank with ass dps and tank or ass dps and heal can still be fun, but a dps with ass tank or heal sucks

edgy grail
#

Tanking is the most influential role across most key levels

#

Which feels very nice

#

You can easily carry keys

Yea that too there were a ton of stacks in this route

edgy grail

16 stacks and 2 chest pace was neat

lusty tiger

1phase tyrannical last boss

edgy grail

Should be able to one phase like 26+

Prob higher with a mage

south zealot

28 you can 1 phase

without renormalizer

lusty tiger
#

Well we had boomkin and 2 hunters

#

Pugs lol

edgy grail
#

Yea we did on ours and had plenty of time too

#

But it was fort

gaunt ocean
#

Think Surv Arms and WW have the same 50% rn in PvE

#

Demo is 25% still I think? Or maybe they changed that one too

edgy grail
#

20% but ye

#

Im assuming none of those stack yea?

urban portal
#

shouldnt stack

#

else pvp seems unplayalbe

lament shell
#

pugs dont invite prot warriors :v wth

#

its a free boost for them kekw

gaunt ocean
#

Ye doesn't stack

#

I believe your own debuff disappears if someone else applies it but not 100% sure

edgy grail

I’d think it’s the highest buff?

On my warlock legion strike is auto cast

yea thats the sad part

hey for gambit, what is considered the best path for this week

#

for high keys

#

and is going right generally accepted as superior to left?

#

(on the beach)

zinc shale
#

actually im gonna change that to the right side

limpid pawn
#

ok, and you invis all the way to first boss?

zinc shale
#

ye whatever u do

#

dont do zulgamux

limpid pawn
#

how high of a key do you do on this just curiously

zinc shale
#

24-25 atm

limpid pawn
#

do you skip zulgamux in every key if possible

#

or just this one

zinc shale
#

every week

#

its a huge timesink for gambit

merry pond
#

@limpid pawn

zinc shale
#

might steal that one

#

didnt know you hung out here tattman ^^

merry pond
#

@zinc shale I don't usually, just had to check in ^^

#

also considered (incase you have a rogue) to just do first pull with lust, then go boss, and clear rest after last boss again. This is all just since you have Nathrezim stacks.

zinc shale
#

Couldnt you go the right side for the extra buff though?

#

Like this

#

maybe not the giant there

limpid pawn
#

but then you're skipping the buff on the left side

zinc shale
#

Yeah i guess it doesnt matter by a huge margin which you go, as long as you get the double buff pack

merry pond
#

Hm IDK, on higher keys I wouldn't do more than one giant, perhaps late on if you have planned for it and know cds line up perfectly.

zinc shale
#

yeah thats true

south zealot
#

i personally pull the one giant and one demon

#

but skip the first 2 guardians

zinc shale
#

are the guardians played? always skip them entirely

south zealot
#

i think doing the one and demon is pretty free

lofty widget
#

Just only pull the infiltrator

merry pond
#

Yeah, you can pull the Nathrezim solo if you just taunt it. It will trigger it

lofty widget
#

Theyre not linked if you ht the infiltrator mob

south zealot
#

oh you can just pull the nathrezim?

#

damn

merry pond
#

yeah, we usually take it with boss. Can be naughty if people aren't used to checking for frontals and sleep puddles tho.

lofty widget
#

Works in streets too with zulgamux

zinc shale
south zealot
#

good to know you can just pull the demon

merry pond
#

lul

zinc shale
#

meme in my premade

#

frontal is frontpiss

lusty tiger
#

Frontdeez

merry pond
#

pull 1,2,3 is kind of chained tho IMO. You can pull #2 when the goliath is dead basically, then when low mobs are dead you can take the Nathrezim pack in #3 so forth so forth.

hey lets gather for a link guys

I'm playing a different video game from everyone else until stacks are down

#

i ain't standin' in that link unless you put it in my way

urban bane
#

I hate shaman healers because most use earth ele at the worst moments

zinc shale
#

yeah

#

when we're like

#

SOO MUUCH RAAAAAAGE

#

suddenly a fucking elemental stealing the aggro and its all gone

urban portal
#

i dont think thats how it works

#

some blizz employee specifically said its not an aoe taunt

zinc shale
#

well then explain losing aggro of 6 mobs all of a sudden

urban portal
#

lemme find the post

#

its some complicated stuff

#

i mean im not saying they dont pulse threat

#

but its not a fat taunt

lusty tiger
#

is it just a 1000000x threat modified earthquake?

#

Because I have pulled off earth eles before lol

merry pond
#

Basically it's a massive threat generator which can happen after specific scenarios.... Can't remember them all, but for example if the tank drops low, it does it.

urban portal
#

yeah

#

dropping low

#

or kiting away

#

and some other stuff

#

are you the real tattman

#

o shi you are

merry pond
#

I guess I am ^^

south zealot
#

yes its a ton of pulsing threat

dawn canyon
#

very nice cat mr tattman

zinc shale
#

and you expect X rage, suddenly you dont get that 😄

dawn canyon
#

or you do it urself gladge

#

wish you could intervene him

oblique garnet
#

its beneficial for both you and the group unless you are doing it specifically to get reset from something i.e necrotic or w/e

#

That way earth ele lives longer and you still generate the additional extra threat from taunting

zinc shale
#

of course

#

long cd though 😄 useful elsewhere sometimes

oblique garnet
#

True

#

But rarely happens unless you die that you dont have threat

zinc shale
#

always some mage pulling ahead

#

and we miss that pullthreat

#

for example

serene steppe

Can you leap over balls on Painsmith?

chrome falcon
#

yeah

#

it's hard though

serene steppe
#

how come?

#

Is there a variable?

dawn canyon
#

yea

#

you need the zenith of the leap above the ball

#

and its pretty precise

serene steppe
#

ah okay, thanks

distant crystal
#

so it needs to be like a max ranged leap with the balls halfway through it?

#

i heard jumping before you leap helps y/n?

chrome falcon

limpid pawn
#

ok so i just did a grimrail depot, timed it thankfully

#

but first boss, group was complaining about "not stacking bosses" or something

#

like we are supposed to try and kill them evenly right?

#

b/c big guy enrages if little one dies?

dawn canyon
#

its very hard to stack em as the guy just jumps all the time

#

but trying to drag the big one on the smaller is generally helpful

limpid pawn
#

ok thats waht iw as doing

#

little guy died way earlier though

#

and we had to deal with enraged big guy doing humongous stomps

drifting fable
undone verge
#

I usually just charge the little guy when its up for the rage and SB

coral marsh
#

Guys how exactly do i tankswap + soak + dispelled in phase 3 sylvanas?

#

Do I just wait for the arrow to jump to next platform and then soak, dispell and taunt?

chrome falcon
#

on heroic or mythic

undone verge
#

I usually just clean platforms, dispell, swap, then swap whenever arrow happens, but thats probably not the optimal way

coral marsh
#

heroic

#

When do you clean current and when next platform?

#

Next only on arrow?

chrome falcon
#

on first platform you need to get dispeled before you go next

#

but yes mostly you need to clear next during arrow

#

just be careful if fury comes out while you clean

#

because you'll wipe raid

coral marsh
#

can i clean before arrow goes off?

#

but already marked

chrome falcon
#

i mean

#

sure?

#

i wouldn't

steel mist
#

guys i got this out of sylvanas

#

is it good or should i still get crest of lordareon

dawn canyon
#

@wintry nymph peepostudy this you?

cinder nova
#

Dos Tarra have a short cast on his tankbuster? Yeah, it's 2s.

coral marsh
#

I just cant soak on sylvanas

#

it destroys me

#

what can i do

#

whenever i soak i just die instantly

chrome falcon
#

instantly? idk

#

logs?

#

how many are soaking

#

i can soak like 15 stacks on heroic without noticing it's happening

steel mist
#

which soaks are you talking about ?

#

the puddless?

dawn canyon
#

yes

oblique garnet
#

Ah yes then use it

#

The stats on the other one are better but thats about it

coral marsh
#

When i go to next platform with arrow

#

i just get destroyed after

#

and cant soak the other platform

#

what can i do there

#

after the arrow hits

chrome falcon
#

cooldown the arrow

#

i'm not sure what answer you're expecting

#

use cooldowns to take less damage from the arrow

#

think about what buttons you have on your bar and press them

#

if soaking will kill you then don't soak

chrome falcon
#

Grimrail Bombardier's Double Slash will no longer be cast on a nearby target if their current target is out of range.

How do you get debuffs in sylv p3 without running into pools?

Anyone know if you can check logs for people that got hit by abilities but immuned the hit? Thinking of mythic Guardian specifically

ocean yoke
vernal vale
desert solstice
#

So whats the difference between Aegis and RDM? I bought RDM and upgraded to heroic

#

Did i make the wrong buy?

vernal vale
#

RDM is passive consistant damage and absorb

desert solstice
#

So im pushing 20-23 keys....So Aegis would probably be better cause of the defensive then?

vernal vale
#

Unless your doing keys 25+ you really don't need it

desert solstice
#

Im gonna start pushing higher keys here soon

#

like this weekend

vernal vale
#

Some better Warriors than me will say like 28+before aegis

desert solstice
#

oh wow

vernal vale
#

RDM is typically better for raid too

#

This tbh

vernal vale
desert solstice
#

Makes sense

vernal vale
#

It also comes off a super early boss.

#

So it's easy to try and get in all 4 difficulties.

desert solstice
#

Im actually going for it rn lol

vernal vale
#

I plugged through the nine during the sanctum tier on mythic

desert solstice
#

i bet its easy

vernal vale
#

I think eye is harder than 9

chrome falcon
#

my ret paladin who plays prot in keys

#

got aegis on normal

#

then heroic

#

then mythic

#

and couldn't trade me any of them

Yeah

static aspen
#

His item, he does what he wants with it

vernal vale
#

Blood dk with gavel and aegis I would hope but I think he's just a 15s for vault guy

sturdy sable
#

I mean this season I don't blame anyone for not pushing

vernal vale
#

I want my portals and keystone hero achiements

#

After that I'll only push if I can actually put a group together instead of pugs

static aspen
sturdy sable
#

I think what he said was more in response to what i said

vernal vale
#

It's purely about my personal goals for pushing as minor as they are.

sturdy sable
#

And sure its his item but what happened to the days of trying to get your tanks the bis trinkets that most players wont ever use and basically only have for rare use cases?

#

Like i swap to dps spec to try and help my dps as it is expected

#

Why is the reverse not true

vernal vale
#

If the dps do more damage then we can kill bosses easier.

remote dawn
#

what die best trinkest for keys around 22-25?

chrome falcon
#

RDM OWS

onyx vessel
#

Which one out of the 2 to upgrade 1st?

chrome falcon
#

RDM

#

scales so insanely hard with ilvl

onyx vessel
vernal vale
#

OWS doesn't scale as great

chrome falcon
#

you get 20 more haste

#

from 259 to 311 OWS

#

whereas RDM proc is twice as strong

vernal vale
remote dawn
#

but rdm can i only have on 291 wayne or other one?

chrome falcon
#

what?

remote dawn
#

i can rdm only have on 291, is this okay or i a other one higher from dungeon better?

vernal vale
#

Better than any dungeon trinket.

foggy lynx
#

rdm or faulty countermeasure ?

onyx vessel
#

Rdm cuz not a use trinket

onyx vessel
plush prism
#

y'all like lightless force or celestial guidance?

#

mostly M+, some heroic raiding

jagged pier
#

celestial

strong forum
#

Lightless force grants about the same dmg overall in a key as celestial guidance, but CG also makes you a bit tankier so you just default to that

onyx vessel

What about sinful

alright yeah thats what i was doing, apparently sfa sims higher than matrix on high target counts as well peepostudy

mellow bridge
#

I dont think matrix sims all that well

lofty widget
#

maybe not. did matrix scale with key lvl or is that just codex?

strong forum
#

Matrix requires high dmg intake

#

We take so little dmg that often the absorb of a matrix proc doesn't get fully consumed

#

So, yes matrix "scales" with key level

#

And on Sims dmg intake is very little compared to real scenarios

#

Which is why monks sim less than they could actually deal dmg, cuz of niuzao

Depends entirely on the group

If everybody knows half of what they're doing the raid will be destroyed in 1-2hrs

Parses this season are weird since some affixes are much much stronger than others and it looks like they're changing each time we see a raid

sonic crag
#

Yeah, we got the barrier this week for Sylv, which is basically 2% of her health every time they pop. Thats damage you don't get to do to her, so your parse will suck

What is the gladiator build I keep seeing people mention? Tried googling and it’s all old info about some stance no longer in game
