Ayoo?
Just get a 10$ third party connector?
damn my pwar damage is so bad.. only doing 18k in 18 gambit?
Nom I'll go sub if you get this made into a emoji
get whatever the hell they got then
It at all, their AIB’s sell them.
What’s sketch is that batch nvidia made that is cheap as shit
I'm on it, I actually have a gal
The other ones are much more solid build
Nvidia kinda lost me as soon as evga cut ties
What got bad?
EVGA bailed because they got tired of getting treated like shit
They've been pulling this shit since the gt 660 which was actually the 650 low end card
i used to have a computer so shit at one point in 2016 or so i went to play hearthstone cuz that was a game i could play, and even fucking hearthstone told me "ah your gpu is too shit to play this game, u cant play"
Every AMD experience I've had has been saving 300 dollars
followed by like
12 hours of work fixing all the stupid horseshit that comes from using an amd card
Not with labeling 60 series memory bus width as 80 series cards
and i just buy nvidia now

fuck work
5700xt has been good to me
If you wanna use ray tracing buy 40 series nvidia if you don’t buy amd. GG
@modern brook the IKEA experience of spending 3 days less pay on furniture just to spend 3 days assembling said furniture
bro
Outside of some of the drivers when I first picked it up but it’s been Gucci since they finally hired engineers or something
Was literally it, they issued the specs as a 256b pipe and the card had a 192
Still got mine

5700XT bros
Card still pulling its weight
Mine is
Cyberpunk at 144fps @ 2k
Runs hot but that’s more a problem with my case having terrible airflow
Mine runs crazy hot
Gonna just completely rebuild at this point
Mine tops at 95c when I overvolt a bit max my CPU bottleneck
2600x is showing it's age
Gave my sapphire to my gf when I went up to a 3070

Was a good card
Been waiting for DDR5 and now it's here so

I have a 2080 and will probably buy a 4090 when there is availability again 🤷♂️
Remember to modernize your psu if you get a 4090
Got a 1000w psu already
Psu drops about 5% throughput per year
Yeah so that 4090 under load will eat that thing
Founders edition recommends 850w
Hahaha
And all the independent treating I have seen shows it actually pulling less than the 3090
@astral atlas just get a modular one
Under load and with less transient spikes
It can, it can also draw over 600w
Thus, the melting
The melting is bad soldering on a batch of those connectors
Nothing else, would just get one from Corsair
kinda damage r people doing in retail atm?
Synthetic tests will do that for ya
Nome does like 30k
The meeting has to do with the connector itself not power draw
At least from the testing I’ve seen
how lol
@strong forum how
Hitting buttons and pulling big
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paqZHzOr58E ...ouch brew is looking rough
Hey guys just wanted to make a vid about if Brewmaster is worth playing in Dragonflight. I try to be as objective as possible so I hope you learn something.
Socials
https://twitter.com/equinoxmonk
https://www.twitch.tv/equinox
Community Discord: http://discord.gg/BbW8dX6PHH
TLDR, there’s varying QC on the adapter and there are connections that are breaking on some of them causing more resistance meaning excessive heat
500w pulling through is approximately 120c which is well within range to start melting cheap solder
Not sure I would call brew rough. Did you see the other video he did the other day doing 96k overall dps in a 15 AA?
Doomers gonna doom, brew will be fine
interesting 😄
Brew is good
I forgot what German dude did the testing but ye basically the connector just isn’t a good idea and the QC problems shouldn’t be a thing
Der bauer
we did get a lot of buffs in s3, not gonna say all the doomer videos didn't contribute to that at all
Ye that guy
The only tank really suffering is druids
And that's less tankyness and more shit design
All the 3rd party connectors are fine as their are more solidly made. Simple as that. Nvidia were just being cheap.
That is kinda their thing
Or it was their supplier doing a bad job as it’s only a small number so might be a bad batch etc
The fact remains is the 12 pin or whatever just wasn’t necessary
Going with, Nvidia being cheap on hiring a company with bad QC
It would have looked bad with 4 8 pins so new solutions had to be found.
All those cables!
Iirc it would have run off 2 8 pins
And it’s only an issue until ATX 3 PSU’s come
Nah that is 2x 150W
An 8 pin has an official spec of 150w iirc
I guess we side tracked the prot warrior channel a bit though.
Did RDM get buffed in prepatch? Did it always absorb 26k? seems way higher than it was. thought the value was like 17k before
Believe so yes
protection warrior tech support
More like protection warriors showing how rage fuels us irl
Is Ashen juggernaut bugged?
do we not have berserker rage in df? 
we just generally don't pick it up because there's, like
not any scary fears or incaps
It will be useful in S2 in the brackenridge dungeon.
press many button

(also its lower kara)
and i guess gamba
JY doesnt count
Reflect
I have 17% base crit, ashen jugg on tree and conduit but I only crit 9%? Am I just super unlucky
Gonna see what SR damage you can get from 2nd boss in Shadowmoon with the 40% buff now.
45 hits isnt a large enough sample size
i have 35% crit baseline +15% crit chance every now and again from heirmir
this is what it looks like on overall
seems fine to me 
Wise words 😅 I will play more as never really played warr till now
Do you use jugg in talents and conduit?
no i play heirmir
AAF + Cov
execute talents are dead
literally a trash ass button
Maybe I just got unlucky but had low crit rate on next boss also
I think maybe using them together is bugged but idk for sure
If you have both only Talent version works, right?
How low is our rage regeneration gonna be in dragonflight Compared to like s3 with banner? 50% of it?
dang, really?
talent Brutal Vitality: 30% of damage you deal adds to your active Ignore Pain. This works just fine when I press Ignore Pain for the first time but when I press Ignore Pain for the second time while having Ignore Pain up, my damage doesn't add anything to my Ignore Pain shield. Is this a known bug or feature?
10-20%
Nome should know better
Its better on aoe
But worst on st i think
overall banner makes up for 25% of our rage gen in m+ currently
in st its practically the same
prot gets about 20% slower in DF with this and obv the lower haste levels
That much lower, not that much of
Do we get still big fat shield slams in DF?
we get phatter ones
OK so that's why there is every tank on every server playing prot Warr now
personally, im sick of BDK after shadowlands, was looking into druid but thats just a trainwreck right now so I decided to pick up pwar again
Ye BDK is fun now
im sure ill revisit it at some point, but the pwar kit is really fun to play
It was way more fun in s3 shadowlands
s3/4 bdk was boring and lost all of the BDK soul imo
can anyone link me the paladin discord? i cant find a working invite link
Where do you find this?
Can someone experienced please msg me private, I got a few questions I’d like to get help with.
logs
We don't do that sort of thing here, not for free anyway... maybe @modern brook
@sly perch if its about what I think it is: 1. Manage your personal hygiene. 2. Work on your social skills 3. Get in shape
Just ask away
🤘
You can’t teach a old dog to sit
People here are used to question like, I'm dying, why? So don't worry
I’m a 1st timer tanker, I tried Druid and I could keep aggro really good. But with warrior I seem to loose it every single time no matter what I do.
But if you ask a question in this channel @strong forum is magically compelled to answer
I can screen my talents and maybe get some input… I keep rotation shield slam, rend, thunder clap, execute and impending victory when need go
Raid m+?
Don't press rend
Where are you losing aggro
Blood and thunder auto applies it with thunderclap
Normal dungeons 😂🤦
Revenge
Everywhere. On small groups of mobs, boss
You're missing revenge
Okay
Our #1 slapper
Let me check them
It's the filler
Whats your ilvl
229
You need to find revenge
I don’t wanna go into a dungeon until I solved this. Yea I’m looking
Thunderclap
Dont press rend press more revenge
Kk
That should help
Yeah alright I got it and I’m usually using it whenever I can, I misses it when I named my rotation
im also thinking maybe spending too much rage on ignore pain instead of shield block / revenge
Even megapumpers at 300 shouldn't be pulling off of a war
@sly perch remove Rend, Whirlwind and Slam from your bars entirely
But yeah not enough revenge span
No. Shield Slam is good. Slam is bad.
Yeah got it
Slam:
Don’t even use it
So, you don't have ravager or shield charge, let's us direct you to the 📌and check the builds in there
Alright so I’m missing out on some skills
Why am I pinged:(
What you have there is kinda half of one build and half of another and neither works
I don't do anything
Someone needed someone "experienced" for a private session
I just annoy nom mostly and flirt with erga when he's here
Alright! I really appreciate the help, ima sort out my talents and get sc and ravager
dont get SC in pre-patch
But it's fun
I told you nom was magically compelled to correct, day or night
this is pretty much the best build to run
well except for zerker rage in top left
that point you can putwhever you want
I would try to get UF/BV/TL going, myself
if you wanna go for max dmg but a bit more squishy you move the point from indomitable to ravager
Alright I’ll try this out now, sorted out my talents according to your guys expertise:)
this is why one of my talent builds is just named "i wanna press shield charge"
It feels so good to hit
Muuuuuuuch better !!!
The Neltharus dungeon in S2 has some nutty gear, the mutated trinket does over 5% or your damage on 4 dummies and the 1h sword forgestorm is 5% as well from the proc alone
I think I have the gist of it
But mathematically how does a critical block work
If you are blocking 50% normally and then crit block, is it 50% of the remainder?
So 75%
Neltharus wont be in s1 m+ right ?
s2 dungeon
sims not implemented for prot
not with accurate sims, no
you can manually add the string
and remove the 2 dragon roar lines
then you can sim, but ill just take the SL sim
SL sim ?
the sim used in shadowlands
how
wait im confused
because the APL isnt written for dragonflight yet
lmao
sims are done and written by humans
i just went to raidbots and tried to im
sim
how do i change it to SL sim
sorry im kinda new to this
you have to manually edit the APL^
@strong forum re: my question above
a critblock isnt a block after a block
its just a 2x as strong block
cap is 85%
what legendary do you equip with that build?
i played signet
Ahh same as armor then
but you dont need any
I've been playing with SC and Ravager to get practiced up for DF - just an idea to get used to them, as pre-patch doesn't really matter.
Anyone else like me and have trouble not taking shockwave - so handy for controlling packs. I don't put more points into it, just the single one.
on moroes normally i get a ranged class to interrupt the trapped mob i release, so it comes to me. Alternatively, if we have no ranged interrupt i line of sight to the right of the platform. Is that right? Can I just run up there and interrupt it myself? I seem to remember when i run up there all the trapped mobs get released.
what's the reasoning on overwhelming rage? does it help throughput somehow?
its just huge QoL
cool, thank you
the talent for hunter is the same way, +10 +20 maximum focus (rage) 2 talents for 20 total resource, adding to pool of 100
Overwhelming Rage is way way more important for Arms, compared to us.
With the last stand conduit the way it is now, you’re almost always gonna overcap a little in big aoe with everything popped, OR is prob effectively generating rage
Won’t be as big a deal after DF launches
How are VDH, warrior, and bdk feeling now? How to they compare? Any quick pro/con and ease of play breakdown?
pwar easiest, vdh middle, bdk hard
vdh more dmg and can be insanely tanky, has aoe silence + 5% magic dmg
pwar very good dmg, very tanky, rally + aoe interrupt + battleshout
bdk immortal but less aoe dmg, very good ST damage, has grip
every tank but vdh and bear are high apm now
if played well
all tanks are around 69cpm
besides vdh and bear
I was about to say, feels like playing Fury lol
fury is way slower
And I realize that 70cpm just means you have a few bursts, and some times when you're pushign simultaneous buttons
LOL, my son plays fury and he probably hits the keys far more than 80-90cpm
his keyboard sounds like a god damn woodchipper
well yeah
if you dont want to miss globals
you press the buttons like 7-8 times per second
but the difference is that he's good at this game and Im not 😄
actual keypresses of me are probably close to like 300 per minute
5 clicks every single second?
sounds about right
you want to minimum hit your keys 3times a second
with a spellqueuewindow of 400 ms
i set mine to 150ms
so i need to hit it 7 times per second
to not miss a gcd
i feel like i'm being trolled by reading this
?
Lol
i hit everything once and seem to not miss any gcd
well "seem" to
is your latency higher than normal
if you only press your button once its ready
you miss alot of fucking milliseconds
per gcd
that shit adds up
if you arent fast enough to hit a spell when its ready asap
you miss milliseconds each time you do that
lets say you miss GCD by 100milliseconds each time
(which is already very fast reaction timing)
over 10 minutes
thats 40000ms
ya^
this
i have 20 ping
ping +100 is recommended
what's CPM and how can you see it mate ?
in logs
logs
casts per minute
Cents per mile
Until you have over 90% GCD usage I don’t think anyone should mess with spell queue stuff
the average player shouldnt no
Until then, it’s not the cause of you being bad…it’s everything else
It’s not just the average player it’s so much higher of a bar
"slow instance"
m8, your ping doesnt increase because you got an unlucky instance
idk what kinda 2007 tech youre talking about, latency only gets fucked if theres a gigantic load of the server, or if your own internet is giving out
When you play with OCE players in NA : 🤮
Yeah isnt nom EU?
Hello 400 ping
im EU we dont have those "unlucky" instances
Im.oce, 19ms usually, na lead its straight to 150
Did you go individually on each player to check that or is there a link in wlog that literally rank cpm ?
OCE players will actually list OCE in groups to let ppl know they might lag and to join at your own risk if you yourself arnt OCE
on beta you have to indivually check logs or you can see it with sims
theres no ranking list
Idk I just mash my buttons real good
I suppose 300cpm isn't actually as fast as I thought.
how you pressing it 7 times per gcd though
I definitely spell queue but dontb think I've changed the window
7 isnt even that much
speedrunners can hit 1 button up to 23 times a second
if not faster
Have it register on button press and release
Can Shield Charge and Charge be macro'd together so it uses Shield Charge first?
I play 200sqw
This is how https://streamable.com/p1jx99
It SOUNDS really fast but I just did a quick test with all my key binds and I hit 465 cpm my first go.
Can hear my keyboard
is it necessary though ? Most of the clicks aren't actually qeueing up anything, it's just one of them
if you only send a button when its ready
youre intentionally lowering your dps
for no reason other than being lazy
you have to pre-spam the next button you wanna send
is it logs that show how many gcds you missed? how would it even track it though, there's down time in fights where you sometimes aren't really needing to press anything
theres no easy way to check for it
but your human reaction speed
will never be quick enough
I play at default 150ms
like im watching malakars video right now, he starts spamming buttons before he's in even remotely near the boss, i get he's trying to maximize, but it's also egregiously overkill
hes sending the button before its usable to setup the queue
so that the game will send the button instantly
as soon as its literally ready
to not miss precious milliseconds each time
this is primarily to prevent latency lag
so people who have worse ping, arent getting fucked over
i deifnitely do this to some extent, dont get me wrong, i just didnt realize people spam this to an ungodly level of cpm
maybe it's the mechanical keyboard that makes it sound absurd, a lot of my keypresses are on a mouse, so my fingers would explode
well
I'm also not perfect at it
But I did have a scuffed kill pull later than that clip

Don't worry the feeling is mutual, it's only recent that the m+ servers have bee shit for latency. We used to be fine and now the input latency is just terrible
thatd be news to me
that you cant overwrite the queue
if you do it before the GCD comes up
That's my experience in overriding a queued tclap
I play exclusively with voice commands
i changed mine because sending revenge in BFA was dogshit if you happen to just get an SS proc right before
I do motion controls
and i noticed that often times revenge would go through instead of SS
I have to shield slam the nearest person irl whenever I want to send it
Flash backs to awful awful skyward sword controls
SQW on beta is omega awful
you cant snipe anything
cuz 150ping
often times beta is just outright unplayable
Low-key use foot petals
I've thought about getting some
Put shield slam on the Brake
We all have that slam on the brake reflex right
i can't remember the 18 top off hand sadly
Why
I dont like being locked into a cast for 200ms looking at a ss proc
And i changed it to 200ms
Yeah cause i olay oce and get grouped with na so i need it higher
So does prot still feel like the "safest" option then? Like, you're not likely to die from a mistake you made 10 seconds ago.
on my old ui i couldnt accept soulstones
so im happy with this update, i don't get that error any more
Your base mitigation is passive so I guess so
would like to attempt to get the allied race heritage easily while i can, all the alliance ones are done, need 4 on horde, past that i can just transfer toons and race change, then its just small rep grind and quests, can do those base races after 50% xp gone
these dungeons are a LOT more spicy now btw
Good
good
I want to pick a healer on their ability to heal, not based on damage they deal
soaking orbs on first boss in AA
before didnt even feel it, now if you are not dispelled it 1 shots
you actually lose hp now?
(randoms)
Ilvl of testing?
dungeons were massively too easy
392
sounds alot more fun now
Good
first part of HOV is super easy now doing triple pull
but double after heimdal you cant do without kick order
well maybe you can doing right side
1 less caster
now that they dont bleed anymore
I only know how to play Demolock
i didnt have chaos blast on my bars for 2 lvls ish got placed on a bad keybind for it
the race you want to play really
best racial/transmogs xD im playing blood elf and my character model seems so small i lose track of myself
Female orc
best racial - vulp in m+, tauren in raid
eww vulp
best tmog - belf, fem orc, troll
chose the race that looks good to you and or fits the racial ability you want, i like tauren, imagine i'd like high mountain tauren as well
yeah i guess i dont wanna spend the $25 on a race change until i know for certain but im heavily leaning towards orc, i created a new warr and leveled it to see how it felt
Highmountain tauren is clearly the best
human, dwarflight foge, orcl all good options , kultiran,
cant sympathise with male orc and tauren
An extra charge that stuns, hell yea!
we already have a charge thing, i might like that on a paladin, if they can be that
we have many charge things and zoom zoom abilities
Male orc either looks very dope and scary of clunky as fuck
@strong forum
Worthit~
malle orc also gets hit for less stun duration base line
which, stun can suck my ass as tank
Femorc best tank
nothing worse as tank, just stuck there cant block or attack or nothin,
Hell yeah
Dwarf stoneform bis and the extra crit damage is nice, plate transmogs can look a little weird though
transmog looks just fine on dwarf
Bru, you can't beat this, all the positives of male orcs with none of the clipping shit and walking like you got saddle sores
Dwarf > any other races > elves
Actually used the highmountain charge for reprisal, was pretty clutch
i dunno what ur talking about
any tips on how to deal with piercing missles on second boss of upper kara? Im using IP, Shield block, Fleshcraft, Spell reflect
Except you do lose control, so flying off of ledges was a thing
A man of culture
hooves, can't make boots for hooves apparnely, nobody has the technlogy
Oh, tmog is awful, haven't warn a helm in years
Spell Block
Spell reflect the last 0.5sec of the cast to not get the debuff
If you wanna be ultra safe you can play immovable object aswell
im going out on a limb and assuming if guy casts burning on you and you spell block it, you take less dmg per tick
The alliance main war
Yes but... Sword...
he thinks hes a paladin with all that gold shit on his armor
guys, i have serious trouble understanding exactly what spell block does.
i use it and for 12sec i have a chance to block the magic spells?
it just takes your normal physical block effect and makes it affect spells too
i think you jave to point at enemy like normal block
on beta are some macros broken on prot war? like mouseover/target heroic throw or taunt : e.g. /cast [@mouseover][] Heroic Throw
I mean t he armor set from the MT challenge looks dope... Just seeing a sword on a dwarf is weird
ohhhhh i found a fun game crash anyone can replicate
open hunter pets, drag individual pet to r keybind, if the pet is out and you hit the button the game crashes and ejects you out alt f4
I didnt choose mage tower recolour, i had tos green with green shield and maiden mace before
far as i know happened with no to little addons, was not a macro
@strong forum ok its definitely still fine, timed 15 and 16s now but you can feel the increased damage done for sure
when it comes to Dwarf I prefer these two mogs
sadly I still need to find a shield that won't clip
yeah those are hard to find
i wonder if in a year from now we all go..... mannnn dude, dragon isles sucks dragon deez nuts more like it, hey remsmber shadow lands and the jailer and tprghast, those were the days
"Man I wish I was in DoS farming scale rn"
like some time loop paradox
Hahaha dos trap
@mellow quartz pretend you dont know and give drjay some helpful mage tips 🙂
Haha
he is playing DH
would be strange to randomly give mage tips
🙂
Would it

Also if you rub your head and pat your belly and say Nomeratur three times backwards he'll magically appear and hold your hand through playing a warrior for season 1
I saw the L60 builds, is this the right channel?
You mostly just move to grab Roar/Shockwave in class tree and Shield Charge + Bulwark/Ravager in Spec tree to extend from the 60 builds
got it, thanks!
That, pretty much
Few points are abled to be nudged in case you need like Berserker Rage or something
all those cooldowns.
Ruby?
academy
oh the elemental
the big solo guy with the whirlwinds
1 hit takes your whole IP and drops you to 40% hp
on a 16 fort
in a 15?
I kinda like the damage change
things hurt now
but also a little hard to judge as there is some super annoying lag on beta despite my ping not being crazy high
a high cpm class with lag is not that fun
Nah not at 4 am
not that big of a deal on those but in aoe half the time it feels like revenge or TC doesnt go off
its a bit sad
Compared HoV +15 w Thundering+Fort. VDH and Warrior. Mained VDH before, 1st time war. C'est incroyable. VDH are good but Warriors are vastly superior. Struggled to survive with my VDH, PWar a +15 seemed a +10.
I'm convinced. Its warrior time.
@oblique garnet 🚿 🛏️ 👨🏿🏭
first hall to boss, then going left till the 1-shotting hunter (1-shotting on my vdh, ofc)
🍺 🪥 
you mean the guy who you have to step out of his frontal empowered arrow cast so you dont get hit?
"Penetrating shot"
How does Prot feel to level with in the open world on beta?
good?
It's not really a question, prot slaps in OW leveling
Anyone have a Weakaura for Shield Block and Ignore pain
IP tracker in pins should still work
Thanks
As someone who groups with friends to level and quests, I stay Prot and round up mobs so others can pew pew
do we know if its worth keeping up tier buff in execute yet
Tier buff as in the talent that replaced it?
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/418899842388197386/1038306375748562974/unknown.png got this tnt. I have 1 dinar to spend too, what should I pair this trinket with for M+ content
Thinking ows
So leahs does nothing solo so look for beyter leveling trinkets
ows / rdm are good choices
what trinkets you go when not raiding?
Never cause sb uptime is so high
Only if you dont use the sb extending talents
Eg in a raid with taunt swaps often enough you might use those talents somewhere else so bolster gains value as a defensive
You just grab Tough As Nails to get through that row, it's a decent 5% of total dps
Trinket question: only have this dd trinkets: grenade 298,soleha 298,decanter 291,eye 304, sack 298, whats the best for me? 😄
i'd normally say "sim it" but sims aren't super up to date yet
can you dinar any of the op sanctum trinkets?
no raiding, decanter was luck from friends guild 1 perrso. left and i play 2 bosses and loot it
Grenade is pretty big as both a dps and a defensive, decanter is decent with the str proc but rng is rng - id run soleahs n grenade in group content and swap soleas for decanter for solo
yea sounds good for this last weeks 😊
Heyo did anything happen to the beta tab ? wanted to try some prot m+ and just copy a build
Dragonflight channels got taken out back
70 M+ trees are likely gonna be the same-ish as live, so something like this-ish
https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/warrior/protection/DAPAURUVUgVRARpFRRBBNVUVEVFUFVYVUQCRE
play with it as you will
Thanks homie

Is there a bug with conduits and mythic + dungeons where they don’t work
My HP is higher outside of the dg
Is that normal or am I not noticing something that impacts stats during mythic
No conduits overlapping either
They gave us +10% stam outside of SL to make up for the lack renown hp increase
Ah nice didn’t realize that was active was definitely wondering what was goin on
do i play necro in prepatch?
Hi ! When the talent battle scared veteran proc i don’t see a debuff or something like that to track the 3min CD ?
And the second question the talent Tough as nails is a good DPS increase or no ?
How are we looking in DF compared to SL and BFA? Good? Fun? (M+ mostly)
Both good and fun @ruby nexus
Considering they were good in sl and bfa and fun is a person thing
I would say the same?
Tough as nails is very good for dps yes, alot better than bloodborne, and yes BSV doesn't show its CD anywhere
Ill ask a friend to make a WA that tracks its CD
Ok thank you for your answer 😁
I did a 29 streets in time no issues, very defensive build, never fell below 70ish % health, wondering if going for more of a dps build would help the keys go smoother or if that would be the death of me lol
Try and see?
What even is a very defensive build
Do you guys go shockwave in gambit?
Why gambit?
Idk if I'd go shockwave in any key, losing 5% dmg and 5% leech is a big deal
Basically said fuck 30 rate revenge, iron shield spike whatever, fuck the wall went with double shield wall to help party out, grabbed intervene for reprisal, grabbed shockwave, grabbed bolster @strong forum
Bolster is overkill
Might drop shockwave probably don’t need it, nice that it does good dam and gives rage though @strong forum
Bolster is nice to have to not think and do other things
And 30 rage revenge is kinda stupid not to pick
Yes, the spell gets more expensive, but you're so overloaded with rage through banner
That its worthwhile
Even in ST
I went with more defensive talents is all I’m saying, felt beefy in that +29 felt good
Ya, stuff don't hurt
Do u guys think that 40% life dmg increase changed something for prot warr?
I had more fun in bfa less so in sl, but maybe that's jus sl thing in general
Might drop shockwave going to miss it til DF
I know it sucks not having it, and obv it's not detrimental to pick it if its actually gonna help your group
But I find it hard to justify to lose so much dmg and a good chunk of self healing
What's your talent tree?
ehy guys, im new to pwar. just looking for ignore pain and checking his meccanics but nothing aroud explain it. If i understood well, ignore pain can have a max value that is around 30% of my max HP, right?
on wowhead there are comment only from bfa XD and it was totally different
Looking at a 15 AA 2 weeks ago vs a 16 AA now my EHRPS doubled 🤔
It was especially different in legion
3k to 6k
That's maybe just the healer having more hots up, sniping you own hwals
Dtps 25k EHRPS 6k. Still a good ration.
Just check what exactly were the heals
fuck i didnt log my 15AA
Dtps was 15k 2 weeks ago
Damn
IP being bugged is VERY noticeable btw
Stuff like soaking orbs on first boss in AA can do 200k damage now at high stacks. Boss frontal winds channel is also 200-250k
Orbs are working now
90k on that 18 fort
Before or after the increase?
before
Should be 105 no?
Might just have buffed the ability by itself like they did a lot of things.
Spellbound battleaxe melee’s for 160k unmitigated
Thinking melee hits combined with the rest
When we mitigate 95% of it it’s not a big deal but wonder abt others.
Seems like all the tanks are getting absolutely jacked now
ya the bleed is blockable
so tanks that cant block
will have fun
actualy no
its just IP
183k lol
You don’t pull him with 7 other mobs lol
I am not saying these hits by themselves do anything as you can see only took 4.5k damage
But others with no block and less mitigation taking 5-6 hits like this plus a surge etc will feel it
really bad progress tank
Taking breaks between hitting the tank
Last boss kinda does nothing now in AA with the increase to 4 stacks
Unless group were monkies and got hit by everything and dropped a million puddles
On a 16 the frontal managed to 1 shot 3 people in my group so had to solo it for 1.5 minutes. Still 2 chested though.
Were we 392 ilvl last weekend or was that 396?
392 last weekend
guys, being that I've been playing warrior tank recently, and I just do some 22-23 as a key, what trinket combo would you use? I only have these, and I have seen that many use old soul warrior + so'leah, full haste
ya this mob
idk
its so garbage
it should be 4 small ones with smaller circles imo
as a warrior you dont need to run out so thats good
just get knocked and charge back in mid air
every tank just tanks it in the corner
hits for 100k on a 16 the knock
and gets knocked into the corner
nah I get knocked off platform
so I have room to charge 🙂
free rage
also 5 melee players on that mob is troll as hell
all whirlwinds spawn in melee
seems legit to change the profession system again after they just changed it
Very, and we can “buld “ an airship
ughhhhhh there is no way im gunna complete the 4 remaining lvl up races for heritage (before 50% goes away)
at least the other main races i can just change faction/race
i had heard it lasts until the evoker patch on 15th ish
also source?
ohhh so im gettin 68% tomorrow then, that's good i suppose
this is how i knew it was total fucking bullshit
remember seige mode and flying combat or whatever they said for VOA in wrath on the box?
Guys is there every a point that toooo much haste is bad? With into up, im sitting around 45%
or it turned into only at VOA
I am only 263 ilvl so catchig up VERY quickly but
Whats the targeted (beyond is bad) % prot war is aiming at?
Doesnt matter
40%
So pack as much as i can?
Your stats dont matter
damn ok
most sane protection warriors stop actively seeking haste after 40%
you start to lose a small fraction of haste after 40% and probablty even after 30%
Interesting - my BDK is what my Mythic prog was done on so my cap knowledge for warrior esp (as it was not as good for ages) is pretty lacking. But generally ilvl and whatever i can find
right now is the time to fool around, find out
and to try out new inventive builds
Its the same thing for all tanks
Ilvl king
thats gaming 101 tbh
equip the armor with the most armor and stats, like no shit lol
oh i don't take as much dmg now and have way more hp, how could that possibly be helpful
Yeah obviously - ima prob just stack crit at this point and be as glass cannon as i can get away with
im fully expecting someone to make "who took interupt/dispell talents caller-outer" addon like the food/rune/flask on
I think a wa already exists
more that i don't want to lvl 3.5 toons, started on warlock but gave up at lvl 22, should have gone to at least lvl 25 or 30 or 35
If not following the wowhead talent build get kicked from pugs 🤡
i had to finished 5 lvls on LFD so, that ate into it, but i'm jus stopping caring about leveling TBH, aleady lvled like 8 toons
you don't matter
Lu2
please take your romance to DMs
If I only do M+, what current trinkets shoul I try to pick as prot?
Secret Technique?
soleahs is pretty good yeah cuiz its basically a stat stick
And the 2nd one?
how do i show my block dmg reduction
second trinket something with strength and probably offensive
I cant find one honestly
That is all I can find from current M+
Do the LFR raids, buy a shard or OWS
Codex it is then 🙂
I also don't raid....doing the LFRs for shard/OWS is very worth it
Thanks for your advice 🙂
I sense the passive aggressive. You do you then boo. 2 weeks left in prepatch, you'll replace anything you gear now.
soleahs and grenade are the 2 "best" trinkets from m+
they pale in comparison with raid trinkets
but you wont get better trinkets from m+
600k damage in 2 seconds
Horde Players, what race are you playing and does it matter much? I'm playing BELF atm, but i feel like T-mog looks better on Vulpera xD
Because of dmg/healing "pot"?
and because of nose for trouble
its practically negates the first melee hit we take from every single mob
Havnt played in a long time but ya i remember over course of key it mitigated about as much as something like scale or aegis, a racial thats about same power as a trinket is pretty strong given how small most racials are
seems like extremely small to me, like i remember there was a similiar argument about some ability or item
the HMT passive is extremely small
vulpera one is 5% of your max hp reduction on every first hit you take from a mob
at 400k hp, thats a 20k absorb
If all I care about is dps, then while offtanking is shield block more dps than revenge in ST due to the 30% shield slam buff?
i cant remember what we talked about but it basically came down to the thing was dog shit because it instantly evaporated on a tank
it was like a trinket or something the mechagon armor one possibly, but i think probably something else some absorb crap
high mountain is for heritage for me only, i thought about naming him "forheritage"
so somehow my deep wounds done 1.5m damage yet i was healed for 300k with FV
ît doesnt heal if youre full hp
that would explain it
3rd boss in jade temple is absurd
have to be in defensive stance for the tank hit and have enough rage banked to fully IP before first hit and in between the 2 hit tank combo to live
and barely live even then
Tyran?
water boss will be very telling of player skill easy gauge
cuz, you get acheivement for doing it correctly and its a personal one
water boss is easy once you just get the timing down
it has adds going on, a jump mechanic even, avoid beam, avoid dead add zone, has it all really
whats the part he gets killed by
the tank combo
the cross flame?
in jade phase primarily
cross jade flame circles is kind of easy, just have to off set the lines a bit and not stand in shit, don't specifically remember a tank combo
you talking abt the circles at the end when he is a dragon?
I am talking abt the kick and strike combo
Thanks man! Really appreciate Your wok!
thats what i mean, its been a long time since i've done that fight
When blocks occur the dr they provide is based off of your shield's block rating, right? Does that wind up being a percentage of the attack you take or is it just flat and not based on the hit
%
dope ty
when u realize the alliance warrior u have been playing is a boosted and you find your original one in another server
im sad now...
casual damage intake
try spell block that maybe i think its a fire dmg isn't it?
it would
but he does like 4-5 jade combos
LS, wall, spell block and healer cd maybe
if coordinated
spell block and externals would be my uneducated guess
Demo shout
but as I said I found I could live it on a 17 by going defensive stance and banking rage so I spammed IP before and in between the combo
spell reflect also reduces Mdmg by 20%
yup
there is no adds
what are you talking about
now add tyr to a key and you will face another 2-4 combos lol
ohhh very interested
dungeon is reworked
im still 100% blind 99% on DF
you know the achiv
theres gunna be dragons, thats about all i know for sure
can be done in HC?
oh and I ran BSV in that dungeon
chance to add it to the dungeon meta achievements for DF hero i think its called
ready for raiding part whatever
Hello, I’m leveling my first prot warrior and my first character in WoW tbh, what professions should I get with Prot Warrior?
whatever you like, prof are just a bonus. some like alchemy and engi some like to make armor or just be a gatherer it has no impact on the class
Ohh, thought the bonuses where important
Well, then I’ll go with some gathering for gold
in general, anything the professions can make you can just buy off the auction house
i do think it would be cool as hell if you could make a 1/2 hand sword mace as blacksmith, and then upgrade it 10 times total over entire expansion maybe so it keeps up with item lvl
How is Kyrian tank now? still okay to play ?
Okay yes
so from peeps that played on beta what is your second trinket after decoration of flame?
@strong forum have u seen or play with the trinket that is called toe something , u summon a feast or something and increase your crit
nice
silly question, the "shield block increases your shield slam damage" thing, is that a talent, passive, something else? I'm trying to find it in game atm (and in the case of it being a talent, trying to make sure I didn't miss it)
should be an extra passive on shield block itself
jeesus, .... learn to look at tooltips before asking something, thanks 😉
just part of block 😄
As Kyrian tank, do i want to focus on crit over vers ?
or do i just get 25% crit and pick crit at the affix
