unlucky, that should be an option not macros
if you have mutiple speccs saved (e.g. one with ravager the other with shockwave) you can switch between them and your bars are updated
your bars save per talent lay out
thats what i meant 😄
what do u mean if i switch talents my bars change?
can't see that
only active/disabled part
you can save your talent tree as a layout (bottom left) and you can switch between layouts
@rustic belfry can u screenshot that for me? 😄
yeah but thats only talent layout
yeah and your bars update to your layout
is it possible to use mouse wheel up /down as hotkey when using the wow default ui?
yes
u just need to set them to a keybind
oh okay thanks i see!
well i think so
yeah that works
@rustic belfry so I have layout with and without spell block, if I switch between them it becomes active/disabled. I want it to disappear
i accidently bound scroll wheel to somehting on alpha
yer remove it from your bars on the layout which isnt using it
it wont show up then
yeah works now thanks!
Might be stupid, but will we run defensive stance now?
u can if u want
and in content u find hurts or difficult for sure u will
but its really where you feel comfortable and on a player to player basis what stance u use
and when
as a general rule of thumb if your tanking
like activly tanking
be in def stance
Cool thanks! See that we have WW as spell now aswell, is it a thing?
same as slam?
yes same as slam
@jagged pier also I've just now deleted all my talent layouts and created a new one and everything from my bars is gone, is there a way to prevent that and create new layout base on different one?
Thx!
I dont know, i would suggest not deleting all your layouts
just have a default one with the spells u always want in the correct places i guees
🤷
ye
You can checkmark a box that says "don't swap Action bars with talent setup"
Smth along those lines
Ya that
Any one got the new rotation and talent build ?
CDs > SS > tc > revenge
no slam right?
I said what I said
Slam as a prot warrior? Cmon man you're making me nervous
yeh I mean I loged and saw it on my spellbook, wanted to puke
it even replaced revenge on my bar for some reason
At the risk of asking a dumb question, do you use execute when available?
SS ? TC ?
Only on pure single target
As soon as there is more than 1 target, revenge > execute
Easy, thanks.
Really dumb question what is SS and tc
When do you use slam and rend ?
Never
rend is now applied by tc if talented
only if 1 target hit is rended, no?
I thought it was that way too
No
but tc just appplies rend if you have the talent
You don't need to ever press rend
Just talent into rend, TC manually applies it
Has anyone noticed that Unbreakable Will's passive is applying despite picking Impenetrable Wall? Every time I Avatar, I'm giving the party a 4 second Shield Wall.
Sometimes talents don't update

But, I'm still getting the 5 second reduction on Shield Wall when Slamming. :/
Not even 100% feelsbadman@oblique garnet
18.7k
Which key
Mh aight
F
Thats less than I imagined
Oh stance dance gonna be important again? Sweet
no
Not important
Oh
just be in battlestance cause SB is better we have like the same EHP in bstance as we did yesterday
you just stay battle stance and forget till you cant
Sadge
It's just an 11% dmg diff between stances
So late woulda done close to 21k if he was in bstance
from talents u got for sonic boom or unstoppable force?
Can't wait to start playing again xD didn't do since like season 2
its with the brain afk build
thats what im gonna call this
sidearms 
Lol
thats aweful
Hi hi, if i play prot/arms, what covenant should i run for prepatch?
fuck covenants
Necro for prot, NF/kyrian for arms
all my bros hates covenants
doesnt matter u can switch freely
I never leveled up Venthyr D:
idk extra autoattack speed aint much either
Oh snap forgot about that item ty
idk ill test
true
is there a way to make buttons glow while buff is active? I thought they've added this or am I tripping
anyone have a good WA or Plater profile or addon or anything like that, that screams in my face if a spell is being casted that i can reflect?
anyone else have any issue with loading weakauras?
the mod isn't loading at all no matter how many times I reinstall it
F
we dont ever use slam og ww, right? they booth look disgusting.
no slam no ww.. those are badies
big baddies
and rend
ye i got that
ive seen the purpose
i wish they had deactivated legendaries and covenants bullshit with prepatch
im so done
Thunderclap applying Rend without an existing Rend is intended?
yes
🤤
tooltip says so
it was changed from spreading rend to applying it
New to Prot. Just wanted to say thanks for having me and answering my questions in the future! 🫶
So no rend in bars?
yes no rend no ww no slam
Great
Oh, I see. The wording confused me I guess they mean, if you've talented Rend it will spread Rend.
Thanks. 🙂
so ive tried to look as much in to professions as i can. What are you guys guys with? seems legit, if you care to spend time on it (i do) to go BS (and probably mining idc yet) ? (I only m+)
So we use Seismic rn?
in m+ yer
can someone share a nice m+ build? lets just assume i dont have any legendaries.. 😛

YEA WELL
PINS ASSUME I HAVE LEGENDARY
Pins assume you can read
Worth talenting in to seismic as i dont have lego?
For m+? Yes.
is this a bug or?
outbuest was bugged as tier set as well 6 stack + ip = outburst, which ever of the 2 evolved version is cuz ???? reasons
yes
i have full confidence in blizzard to fix outburst
we have assured the administrator that nothing will go wrong
can someone give me offensive m+ build

no
okay thanks
So, where do we craft our leggos now?
the same place as always i would presume
alright
Hold to cast doesnt work on retail, atleast for me. On Beta it does work on SS and TC
Can somone please check if it is working for them?
Why would you hold cast ss or tc
just playing around
And a but confused why its working on beta realm but not prepatch
So btw, since we use seismic, we can spec it off from the tree, right?
yes
You should
Or the lego stops working
is necrolord or kyrian best for prot now?
necrolord
Any good prepatch yt guide out there?
yea but those talents linked to wowhead calculator are not updated i think
Kinda bad answer ngl xD
no because anyone thats put one out there has no spent enough time with the talents and stuff to know all the good and back things about the spec
go test and find out for yourself what works for u
they are updated for prepatch
Inc this feels wrong
they dont match the ingame talents 100%
only thing thats different is barbaric placement
yes
and that literally doesnt matter
u ither put it to the right or the left
and thats because the wowhead talents are from beta not pre patch the lay outs are different
but it doesnt mean anything the point still goes to that talent
literally
changes
nothing
What would be bigger value for my ungeared prot (looking to jump into keys and get 20s done before end of the prepatch), OWS or Aegis
Have s1 gear besides a couple pieces, but ty I will get ows
i dont think u understand how strong prot is now due to them giving us block time and making block 30% better
I'm excited to find out in the next days :)
Keep in mind
Trinkets that have straight number values like absorbs and dmg effects got buffed by 65%
So aegis and rdm have just gotten 65% stronger
Pinned
wowhead the wall build?
true
This isnt battlegrounds
Can't outrun your problems


There are 2 St builds pinned, 1 with the wall, 1 with reprisal
Pick the one you like more, or which legendary you like to play more
yeeted reprisal as soon i logged today, feelsgood 
damage is damage tho
Emphasis on can

thx for answer ❤️
anyone knows the Tough as Nails avg overall damage in m+?
ok ty
Ah so you cant solo shared suffering anymore
why
oh no my whole UI is fucked up
yeah i did not expect to die through wall + fleshcraft and reflect
Did you still have mortal strike debuff
No
How much dmg did it do?
138K
What key lvl was it
22
ehm, so updated elvui in tukui client and it just straight deleted it?? What? 😒
Stuff not working properly on pre patch
wow thats news
And people are surprized
I'm not suprised shit is not working, im suprised it deleted the entire addon instead of updating it
why the fuck is my main bar this size?
So you dont miss ss casts
but the icons itself are smol
Taking a backup before starting today...would have been a somewhat intelligent decision 😒
Was talking about myself and elvui... But after reinstalling everything, it actually works like before. I'm impressed.
can we stack conduits with talents? brutal vitality for example
No
meh
Does the dance of death talent for protection stack over 2 minutes?
any prot guide updated?
so if you pull loads of mobs you can stack it for the increasxe 20% dmg per kill
is the wowhead talent build for m+ good, it has no ravger and shield charge?
well u cant get there u only have limited points
Outburst + Indom is just straight up better
guessing BV is also better than Ravager 🤔
alright ill use it, just wanted to ask ty
Test it out figure it yourself which performs the best 🙂
Interesting. Blizz chooses a default build for you. Didnt expect that
Also interesting to see THEIR choices for us
Any idea what the hell is doing this
Disable all addons
I do
Its the mission table addon
forgot name
I did, and everything was clean
Oh yeah it snuck itself back on
perfect, was losing my mind but somehow it turned itself back on after I had a functional UI
Have to say, smoothest prepatch in history for me. Took less than 10 minutes and my UI looks and work almost exactly like it did before prepatch. Just missing some QOL wa's and stuff
TLDR missiontable ye?
I really can't remember the name, I deleted mine after he ended support. I just saw it posted in another discord and they said it was the mission table addon.
What's the recommended conduits for the Mythic + Build Pinned and would you say could still use it kyrian too or just necro?
Can confirm it’s that addon, atleast was for me
Covenant Mission Helper
damn son, prot dps is no joke rn
Its in the same spot for me unless i'm blind. I do feel something have changed, the points are off.
.
Beta / Live are not synced. PTR / Live are.
Yes, Sidearm changed spots with Barbaric Training on PTR/Live.
No, this change is not on Beta.
Have they increased points needed for the last tier on the warrior tree?
I cant put my finger on it but something is very different
TIL that if you use Reprisal with Shield Charge talents, you can keep 100% uptime on Shield Block with extra 1-2 charges of Shield Block on the erady
You're a late learner.
Do i win something now? Also, nice
how do i get this shit to line up like in the old ui :<
👀
check the grid icon when you edit your ui
am i forced to have my Action Bar 3 outside of the gryphon?
Go into edit mode and move them?
Hey are we playing seismic leggy or is the wall with the group buff a option? I didn’t came to test it. I’m at work.
can i move the gryphons?
i dont want to remove them, i want to move them
i don't think so
You can move anything in wow.
in the new ui? how?
Moveanything addon.
gryphon is overlapping my buttons
ohh that, disable blizz artwork. Not sure if you can in the default UI, if you do, i dont know where. but several addons can do it.
i dont want to remove the gryphons
i want it on the side of my bar3
you can remove them but not move them
lul
Try changing the scaling
2 things hardcoded deep into game: bag and bank stuff (slots/size) and griphons/wind riders
Is anyone using KUI and got it to work? I freakin hate plater
I just swapped because KUI is broken atm
Welcome to pre patch baby
big shock addons broken on patch day
I can't believe blizzard shipped prepatch with broken addons 😂
Dying = dstance, Not dying = bstance
Does defensive stance still effect threat?
If it does it hardly matters. I tanked a few keys last night with no threat issues in bstance
No
Threat is tied to "tank specialization".
I see a m+ build with a specific legendary and another build 'without shield specialisation'. Is that second one the one to go for if you have no lego's?
The pin doesn't say it's for people without lego's .. it says maybe it will be good without shield specialisation
X-legendary just means you don't pick the talent Version of the legendary
Seismic and the wall are on the talent tree, so you skip using those and instead use the legendary
Now you gotta make a 3rd build @strong forum "No legendary".
Nobody asked blizz to update the ui… this is dumb, we should have a choice not to use it
The no legendary build is the same as seismic
you do have a choice
Wdym, new UI is great.
It’s not really
u can literally make the new ui like the old ui
it literally doesnt matter
they are just putting some functionallity addons have been giving for years
what would you recommend dropping in favour of seismic?
Sure.
But the 50 new people asking it every hour don't know it. 😂
How am i supposed to hit them with the "
"

wild strikes id say
People have asked blizzard to modernize the UI the last 15 years lol
😂 literally no downside for the new UI, only when addons are broken first few days. For new players or casual players who don't use any addons it's a huge upgrade, and for those who use the addons its a non factor and if you really are set in stone in old ways you can use the setting linked above as I was typing xD
dont know what your build is so cant say
@sand pebble that doesn’t change the stupid bag and map changes
the seismic m+ one from the pins
map and bag changes are great
Addons break every expansion. The code changes behind the scenes on many things.
finally not using a bag and map addon
Why are my bag icons so damn big and take up so much space
Done
No legendary m+ build
Thanks @strong forum

u can scale them down
Elvui works perfectly and makes everything look like you are used to if you run that.
literally everything can be scaled
@strong forum what did you drop to make way for the seismic ?
wild strikes..
I dropped pain and gain
ok thanks
u aint dropping wild strikes for it
You can also opt to not have overwhelming rage
But overwhelming rage is surprisingly nice to play with
It's huge QoL
yah i will follow your link 🙂 QoL sounds fun. Thanks!
Just 1 point in overwhelming rage is such a big difference. 2 points is a little much.
ive found i dont really need it
just gives me a slightly bigger buffer before capping, no need
Dunno abt prepatch but in DF you can feel it.
Are you from Northern Ireland?
Almost
?
I thought you're Norwegian.
"so you do" is a very northern ireland thing to say lol
did erga escape the matrix
yo
😮
irl shit sorry
wait, how do we know it's really him?
yikes

It might be rosjen
that's exactly what a kidnapper would say
U rite

@sweet summit thoughts on bleach new season
The what?
ok weeb

Could it be that the talent guide for prot is a bit outdated?
"Not a weeb".
visual bug
this is not the up to date talent tree thow
Wowhead is using the beta talent build

so you're saying
orange man bad at job
ah
Ptr build is 1 build behind beta
orange man should update
Not my ploblem
so the health change is a deepening bond thing you think?
ofc it is
Nah, vanguard has been nerfed
mwahi is retired blue man
To make up for the talents we get
you're the punching bag now
oloooo that makes sense ty
If yiu pick all stamina nodes on the tree, you should be right back where you left off
ah wtf is mael doing here

Eh maybe so, I for one had zero fun playing pwarrior at the beginning
Mael being naeno
then sorry, you bad
say that to my face in felhammer nerd
i dare you
And I'm sad that we go a bit back to bfa playstyle
what was bfa play style?
u cant fit it in
You said Prot was bad in 9.0..and then said it wasn't "fun". 👀
Fun != good/bad.
ah ok
ye, clap clap clap
10% w/e
And 1% Heroic Throw.
avatar up? clap even harder
Now atleast we have more CDs and revenge actually does big damage
which build do you prefer at the moment?
it is to some ppl, probably him
it was 90% clap 10% make sure you make clap 90%
i just got a /w "dude prot warrior is unkillable. Too good to be true." in game
I'll prolly play the "no shield specialisation" build
Literal max dam
im probably gunna play the wall build cause i only log to raid
i have nerd
@strong forum is that no shield spec build for ppl with very good gear or a very good healer?
no legendary required?
Cuz you still have 100% block uptime
i want to blast!
No legendary required
which guide do you follow?
pins
I follow my own guide, if you're asking me
ha
he makes the guides
ah sorry
orange man funny
if your asking
does elvui not work anymore?
He travels forward in time and asks his future self for guidance
I did
i updated it, restarted wow, nothing happened
Still doesn't load 😦
wierd
Yeah. Elvui 12.93 😦
im looking at the no shield spec build and the no lego build and just wanting to see the difference. I'll look more careflyy using a very wide screen monitor
Double checked to make sure it's in retail
I need to be told which one i prefer.
Double checked to download retail
please no use brain figure out yourself
its game
mwahi going completely different to everyone in DF
i appreciate you @strong forum
Has anyone Reyes any M+ today if so can you link me a set up talent wise. ☺️
Tried*
@jagged pier you gotta realise that for some people just the basic ability set is new so comparing variants of them is very hard to do.

then dont worry about whats best get used to the basic stuff then compare.
i relly like how the talents; for a large part; speaks to your preference. Ofc there are some talents you just want to have, but still so many small tweaks you can change to depending on your style or t he dungeon you are about to jump in to
i promise you will get and be so much better at a class or spec if u try things out
they did a great job.
not just follow what your told
ok i will do that in DF. In the past i've alted like crazy so blindly followed the meta. In DF i say NO to altoholic behaviour so i will have time to do this. **disclaimer: I say this every patch and expansion but really really mean it.
thats what i said in BFA when i went prot warrior season 1.
ps it's you're.
u dont need to spend much time on alts anymore theres no borrowed power so if anything alting is easier next expansion
how did that turn out?
absolutely terrible. I was stubborn so i didnt reroll fast enough and was behind. I obviously did reroll eventually
why did you reroll at all though?
I personnaly like playing warr tank more defensivly then dmg wise so talents giving me self healing and absorb is more fun then picking dmg talents.
i plan not to reroll come hell or high water
It wasnt great at all

truth is the truth
i said i would not alt and now i have 3 warriors, 2 monks and every other class at 60 plus 6 more at 50 which are repeats also. This has to stop.
dude u need to touch some grass
i would but i have plate boots on now and. a desire to smash stuff in the face
Didnt matter how good i was, im 99% a solo player and it was straight up impossible for me to find m+ groups.
there are more things than just the game
i will live the warrior life
okay i didnt have an issue
and i pug all my m+
cause my guild hated going m+ at the time
i literally decided on warrior for the class fantasy. I don't care how it stacks up against other stuff. I know for my level of play it will be good enough and as a tank I won't be a slave to the meta as people are always desperate for tanks in m+ (raid i will dps)
the only time meta slave is a thing is if your top 50 guild or your pushing the highest possible keys
exactly right
otherwise there is literally 0 need to play the meta
but for some reason ppl dont understand that
i think for 20's i will be fine as ANY tank spec even if i am pugging them.
for sure
well if you are a dps player you literally won't get invited if you are the 'wrong spec'... tanks have it easier.
although you can 'push your own key'
lol yea gl with that. But it is true, people are slaves to the meta on others behalf. "why would i take a subpar spec in to MY KEY" mentality.
anyone have a good working wa pack
i heard luxthos updated but i got a bunch of lua errors caught by bugcatcher
he has also gone from 3 to 1 wa now which is a bonus
everything ive tried so far is absolutely slamming the errors
yeah liked that about luxthos
thanks for all the advice guys - can't wait to try it out later.
I'm using Afenar's and it doesn't seem to have any issues
im using naowhs and that seems to work fine
Im using noms and it works fine
After bot playing since feb my ui is a disaster but got plenty if time to sort it out since prob wont actually start playing til the event
I haven't watched the talents super hard in beta, but the 4 secs from Immovable Object feels weak...
The point of that is, if you have predictable dmg income
It's massively overpowered
You can hold your avatars for a bit to send it just before a tank buster
And be literally a god
Granted, this requires actual dmg intake
Yeah, that is fair... Understanding group damage spikes then mitigating it
Don't focus too much on unbreakable will
Glad to hear that
im using my own scuffed one
it works for me
nomes i tested on beta i did not gel with it, just not for me
but ui is a very subjective thing
Ive always done my own uis for that reason
Is thunderlord a decent leggo to swap out with reprisal for this post s4?
thats a talent, does it stack?
They disable all set bonuses but not the leggos? Seems bit odd, why not just disable both?
So overall how are we feeling in prepatch? good? bad? break even?
talents, conduits and leggos do not stack with each other
honestly can't decide if I want to bother playing yet after grinding beta
Nah, no point burning out a month before launch. I'm planning on just casually keeping my muscle memory up and taking this month as a form of break mentally so I can go ham all winter.
Been off for a year and still just plan to work on ui, keybinds, and maybe do a couple off things to shake off cobwebs, never reallt felt like playing right before new expansions
Am I retarded or are the pinned builds not matching live? Sidearm and barbaric training swapped spots?
yea thats the only difference
yer wowhead used beta build
which is ahead of the ptr/pre patch build
doesnt matter at all tho
How has the new talents been treating people?
wowheads build is 1 ahead of retails because it uses beta's build
well; its nice having access to all the powerful tools we had locked behind other, more powerful tools without losing those tools
Bull is a fun guy

That mostly makes sense
Df pwar is like SL pwar
Except you get to wear 4 more legendaries
That's how I'd describe it
And reprisal gets to sit in timeout of course
what conduits do u even play in m+ now? execute is trash
and cant play show of force
thank christ

But only on bosses
It was so nice not having to think about charge weaving and intervene
There’s a lot of different builds floating around and some are using punish some ain’t. And I know the talent is better but there’s a lot of good points that have to be given up to get SoF I feel like
the alternatives are bad it looks like and the SoF in talent is better than conduit
How good is the default build?
aweful
Anyone have a decent alternative for M+?

tyty
missing a lot of the fun toys which are at the bottom of the trees 😦
That's just level 60 stuff tho right?
so ima chill in beta till release for gameplay 🙂
Blizzard gives 0 fucks abt peoples lvl 60 talents lol
It’s all balanced around having 11 extra points
^
just get shield spec, indom and VO
once you hit 70 youll get shockwave, dragons roar, ravager, shield charge
the m+ build that "should be good for necrolord".. is it also good/decent as kyrian?
lots of fun stuff
I actually gotta make more keybinds with so many more buttons to press
Well once get to 70
wait... thats a good thing 
Wait, the TC and outburst on 7 stacks is still a bug in prepatch even after they fixed it on the beta last build?
Right now its less
In beta I feel like I have less
ptr was a build behind beta
so yes
They fixed the other bug on the PTR before fixing it on beta though
Facepalm
:Shrug:
Necro still better but it’s not like kyrian is useless. Banner uptime is just so much easier at the moment and more valuable. You should give it a try. 100% uptime on Movement speed increase is BiS anyways.
The beta they push to ptr is often not the same as they have internally, iterative development means they often a couple builds ahead already
So prepatch/beta/internal all different builds
thx dude, will give it a try
the real question is what TMOG is everyone strutting into DF with? Im still looking for a good looking shield.... but I cant seem to find one that I really like
For the last week or 2 they have alternated between fixing bugs on the PTR before the beta and then the other way around.
I like the one illidan drops in black temple but it never drops for me
Ill keep using what ive used for a while a furry using bulwark and s1 sl pvp set
Theres a boe from i think wod? Thats a hd remodel of illidans
I prefer the original still but honestly they so close that unless back and forth comparison cant really see the diff
I have that; idk, it looks alright, but its almost too big for my tiny blood elf
is thunder clap consuming outburst on the 7th charge and not 8th?
is it a known bug?
Fixed on beta but not this build of PTR apparently
(Live now)
i've been rocking the legion hidden appearance since forever and i still love it. it's almost fitting again for DF even 😛
Where you get that Botato
Cos I have no originality
Jealous of the flail -_-
https://warcraft-secrets.com/guides/warrior-hidden-artifacts-appearances-and-effects prot is at the bottom
You wanna see some clipping?
those shoulders devouring that poor shield
nom nom nom
haven't played s4 yet, what's our go-to-stat or seasonal affix?
much appreciated 🙂
😦
Versatility, cause you keep on forgetting to set it to something else

did condemn always have a CD for protection or did they break it in the prepatch
outstanding work
So with Seismic Reverberation, do you ever use WW or is that trolling?
why use WW when it procs off revenge as well?
u aint ever gunna use WW
That's what I was assuming, but wanted to check incase the damage is like insane in certain situations
use it for style points
Man, even if numbers go in the dumpster, prot is just straight fun
Flex on the lesser classes by not even using your good abilities
i would say look at the damage of ww and the damage of revenge and compare what damage amps we have for both. and youll see
Slam, whirlwind, rend build let's go
talent into rend, not even on my bar
spin
to
win
hey, execute hit like a wet noddle right now ?
My friend, you see this leaf next to my name? I am new to this discord, which means I've just joined on a whim after prepatch to scavenge some builds. If you think my demographic is going to do any thinking then you are sorely mistaken 😝
They nerfed execute by 40%
5 even
Great.
Fresh minds that i can mess with and you need to listen to me because i'm a colored name which instantly means i know things.
-Always use WW
-IP is your primary mitigation tool
-Never use Shield Slam, only use Slam
Welcome to the discord.
holy shit
the best way for you to learn is to ask questions and to go and see for yourself bud we can tell you all the information but the best path to learning is figuring stuff out for yourself

Thanks haha, I'm mostly joking but appreciate the positivity
🤔 I see, I see... Thanks for the sound advice
for half a second i was rerading this like what in gods green earth has been let into this discord
Brown is a color, listen to me!
He should pin it
I've been unleashed.
I'm not gonna lie I've not done a lot of tanking and the point about IP has got me legit questioning things
your missing like a few buttons still tho
thanks to not being 70

Don't.
Yea, 70 prot warrior is a blast 😄

Yeah, but I meant as is now the core rotation for the most part reminds me of the good ol’ glory days hah
Obviously it’s not complete but still
stance dance is back ? -.-
Is there something that reduces shield block CD? I feel like I get shield block back so fast. I sometimes sit at 28 sec shield block duration and have one charge
no
if your not safe be in dstance
if u are be in bstance
No.
Reprisal/ED/HR/Bolster tho. Depending on what you have.
We are overloaded currently.
theres a lot of ways to get SB
I just followed the build from the pin
honestly, feel like the idea is we should be at 100% uptime on SB
Tbh I still like running bulwark at 60.
And if you aren't totally sure then don't be in either, right?
then be in dstance
yea, ED and HR are more then enough
but with cds on ht in bstance max out my dmg ?
None of those mean anything to me. I admit I’ve taken a long break from wow
Of about a month
your really over thinking stances
Legit just switch to battlestance and then remove it from your bars
in prepatch you're already unkillable with 40s cd shieldwall, reprisal and unlimited shield block so just go bstance
Atleast in SL
Heavy repercussions and enduring defenses (2 talents)
i hate stances but i will max out the prot
Ooooh
Don't even think about stances.
They are there for the cool visuals when you pop one.
Best way to think about bstance; much like how we have WW and Slam in our spellbook, its there if you really want to use it
@strong forum why are u gaslighting me with this ravager build in pins
3% crit feels underwhelming being in battle stance
I'll play it
Cuz it's phat dam
10% damage too technically no?
yeah but dstance is 10% less dmg
IT WAS MY SUGGESTION 😠 😦 and i got yelled at for " no ndom is trolling xd"
It's more the "not reduced damage from Defensive stance".
id rather stay inDstance and pull more mobs tbh but i like the lazy approach
20% less taken, 10% less done in Dstance
20% less damage taken, 10% less dealt
I think it might be good to change stance in raid when you’re off tanking
Can they bring back gladiator pls? Ty
Just think of dstance as tanking a key 2 levels higher.
until you forget to turn it on after you taunt
or maybe you just macro dstance to taunt
yea raid for sure
I just got one of the hidden artifact abilities, it shows under apperances, but cant tmog into it, anyone run into this before?
got it, simple relog fixed it...lol
try relogging. If that dont work, bring your artifact wep to your class hall and look at the artifact forgey thing
They killed that dream when they dropped shield charge in how they did
Thanks August
I still think we should have gotten a talent to let us wield a 2h
Then they need to give us titan’s grip with shield ty
but thats just me
How many talent points do we have at 60 ?
Seriously 40% how am I supposed to insult my dps in execute phase now.
u just use SS it does more damage
theres like 3 talents that interact with execute
dont know how good they are though
oooof unlucky
25/26
so the 100% uptime build does more damage
after playing for a while on Beta, sure feels a bit stale playing without Shield Charge, Thunderous Roar, Ravager and Shockwave lol
i already deleted reprisal hehe
You can just keep playing beta
How tf do you change the size of your map and bags
I cant even think about my SL legos.... all the gold spent....

I mean yeah doesn't mean I won't miss the fat execute damage.
with an addon
the new UI is pretty good, but theres still a number of things they need to address
minimap, cast bars, moving interfaces, and micro bar are the ones that come to mind
I use plater for most buffs and debuffs so not really a issue for me
it just doubles information on my screen
but yea, still some work to be done on the UI
Thankfully there is a macro to hide blizzard buffs if you have another tracker
I'm not a game developer, but I hope whoever designed the new UI made it robust enough to make relatively easy edits to the options
more options, happier players 🙂
It looks like the Edit UI of SWTOR
Im giving the new UI a honest try; if it really starts to bug me, I have my old UI saved
What do you think about war tank in pre patch ? He is good ?
Pwar is very strong, but all tanks are extremely strong currently
Don't say shit like that. It attracts bears.
Vdh is probably the strongest tank in pre-patch
Which legendary/build are people finding most fun/strongest currently?
perfectly viable in prepatch and in DF tbh
they just play like garbage
as usual
Wich tank has the best damage currently ?
Paladin?
Probably Brew.
but also makes your healer want to cry
brew, paladin,
Vengeance, Pally, Warrior are all close.
health drops faster then a BDKs
Its still hard to tell what will be the 'meta' tank for season 1, but you got a 16% chance of being right, so play what you think plays well and itll probably be a good choice
Meta is irrelevant always play what you most enjoy and beat flavor of the month players
So seeing red still resets on 7 if you TC ?
The only thing more annoying that people chasing the meta is people complaining about people chasing the meta.
Mastery of the spec will always be better than swapping every month and never fully understanding the spec you play
If I demo shout after a dot is applied to me, will it still reduce the dmg or do I have to shout before it is applied?
its a bug that was fixed on beta
well its happening to me on live 😦
I am assuming the Prot War lego suggestion for pre-patch is solid?
Which legendary/build are people finding most fun/strongest currently?
exactly it was fixed on beta not on live or PTR
You can try a lot of things; a lot of the good legos became talents (minus reprisal, but you can mimic it with other SB talents if you choose) so if you use lets say "The Wall" dont use the talent that does the exact same thing. The base build on Wowhead is a pretty good place to start, and they even have a tab that tells you which talents are necessary, great, good, and poop so you can make some personal choices from there.
Beta build is ahead of prepatch :^)
guess we're about to be the godclass of DF s1
stack arms in raid for execute, prot in m+
theyre only 10k right now
Wish that were the case 8 months ago
is there any prot builds that are nice?
omg i cant wait to bust out my prot and veng tonight LETS GO
@strong forum for your no shield spec ungabunga big dam build will you play kyrian? 🙂
necro
theres 5 in the pins
how is everyone feeling about stand dancing again?
u dont stance dance
if your in toruble u use dstance otherwise your in bstance
so in prepatch more than likely youll be in bstance
for prog in DF and pushing keys
dstance
good to know.
For keys just think abt dstance as a 2 key level difference. If 25s are you limit for dying/damage intake in dstance then you would feel the same in a 23 in bstance.
okay we are way too fing strong
Compared to what?
nope its prepatch tuning
i just soloed antros the world boss after 30 mins... soloed, meaning just myself
does anyone know why my keybindings change when I went in a dungeon?
Imagine prepatch balance meaning anything
for some reason ppl think it does
Is anyone else not using Execute? SS seems to outdamage it by a lot.
From now on if people ask we should just recommend they use the blizzard approved starter builds.
no
i used to execute in lik packs of 4-5 lmao. gonna miss it
Even ST it looked like it was doing less... My team died on the Saberon boss in ID at 34%, I remained and solo'd it til its death. Never touched Execute at that time as I needed the Rage to survive it.
it doesnt even have SR @mellow quartz
Then they will learn on their own what they are missing.
well ive been told today apprently ppl cant do that
