And get banner to 2m
Leap resets taunt
Take some time to dummy train
Banner will be your trial
Since its a ez way to know if you are progessing
For 2 days till you lose it ;D
It's just an indicator that you're playing right
It doesn't require you to change the playstyle
just tpend stuff?
Spam more
Unity lego
Press more buttons
Repeat
You only have a cpm on IP of like 8.5 or something it was, which, even with wipes, is probably a bit too low for the rage you generated
Liberally apply forehead to keyboard en nauseum
can someone explain it
;D
It's just
/cast Ignore Pain
/cast Shield Slam
iirc
Makes ot so you make sure to spend rage before generating
And lets you use other stuff
It goes on your IP button, not your SS button, to clarify
I put it on IP button but thanks @warm plinth xD
Anyhow, I gotta stop looking at phone, but give a holler if you want any other advice/help. i didn't look at talents or amything as a heads up, so no comments on those
Yes
im only tracking shield block atm
They were saying use banner as an indicator of doing the rotation well on a dummy is all
Never
naah
Nor do we use whirlwind
no slam no ww
sweet
You can also remove rend if you have blood and thunder talent
can someone link me a banner WA? 😄
xD
NGL havent even read what it did untill now
appernalty it gives me mastery
pog
I used it for movement speed inbetween packs ❤️
It sounds like you are starting from square 1 on prot. You may want to read up on a rotation and basic guide
not square one, just havent gone over DF stuff yet
No, that was meant for brew

does spell reflect work on shared suffering on huntsman altimor boss?
Spell reflect works on rolls dice some stuff
wheres the s4 spreadsheet
we usedto have one for spell reflect in dungeons, i swear it did before
St or aoe?
on the training dummy u told me to hit
So aoe
Good n'uff
Keep going
Thats better than
despite all your rage
and i use charge to gain some stuff
Make sure you are also utilizing DN to generate more rage
DEEZ NUTS?
Yes
or is DN something else
a man of culture
any WA kings out here btw?
need help fixing a WA I just downloaded to make it have a touch of claptin on it
brewtin*
nvm i fixed it
I just realized, the defensive stance says it reducses your damage by 10%
I tought it increased my dam ❤️
this is pgo
pog
Wait wtf? Thought I had to apply rend on one target and thunder clap to spread to everything else
Nope. Thunderclap puts rend on your target as long as you’re talented into rend.
So basically remove rend from hotbar, correct?
Correct
Ungabunga time, less buttons to press
best time of ungabunga
weirdpog
Are slam or whirlwind ever used as prot?
No sir
So can remove from bars? No scenario ever when I'd use? 😄
Correct
Thank ye lad/lass
yeeteth them away
Prob a weird question, but anyone got a solid prot PvP? Gonna play bodyguard for my buddy lol
Our resident prot @zenith vale is running this. BkEAR5QSZgdnGefDo4ho9ZGXKLgAAAAASSikkgUSKikWBRICkAlkENgAQLkEBCEJAAAAAAAAAAoUKA
@paper iron
I'll take a look, appreciate it bud
Will I ever really use hamstring realistically? Even in PvP Prot has an absurd amount of cc
Nearly free, 100% maintainable 50% snare seems silly to not use
So is leap the only option outside of nitro boosts and goblin racial that warriors have for movement?
well, you're leaving out other mobility racials but yeah, leap is the only unassisted mobility option that warriors have
yeah walking places alone is suffering sometimes as a result
it feels really bad to have a massive, bungo jump
and then you just
hobble over to the next spot
need to have leaper baseline
Gave the lego to us twice, couldn't give it to us baseline 
Should i leveling as prot or switch to fury till 70?
Yeah, and you can get a lot of instant damage and cleave from Shield Charge between mobs.
true, prot leveling is fun and easy
glad nobody is 1v1'ing mobs anymore
its you vs the world
Really? Not even doing the pose.
Didn't he drop dead from juicing
heart attack in sauna
Born with a heart problem#rip
drugs and sauna in thailand
He fainted cause he had an erection in the sauna and his cock was too massive
Careful how you speak about our lord, he was a warrior main
Juicing not even once
no
epic
Does anyone heave a Weakaura that Shows If we are in Battle or Defensive stance but ALSO shows the 3 second Cooldown timer on it when switching between stances? Cant get that timer thing to work ><
haha still seems reasonable to use it as a defensive now and then no? :p
Healers have def cds also 
Huhu
Dps have dps cds wich kinda is a def cd when trash dies faster
Yeah, we want to use Def stance probably when we're undergeared in the first tier and during prog where tanks get hammered
Have I been messing myself over running in defensive stance lol?
And in high keys
Since DPS usually is timing keys if you aren't being a clown, not you
Not really but you don't really need it until really really high keys
Plus surviving smoother makes bigger pulls easier and therefore means more cleave and faster clears
So
It's kind of like stacking HP. Generally, not necessary unless you're absolutely getting destroyed.
Even with a 10% damage nerf, you'll be doing plenty, and the missing 10% will be irrelevant in all but the highest bleeding edge of content, which 99.9% of us will not be doing.
If you wanna turtle you're not missing out much unless you're a parse monkey
Gotcha gotcha. Yeah I’m trying to figure out what prob out. I can’t from an to server and plan on taking end game content seriously next xpac, so everything helps
Well my frends call me ape But prty close
Did they fix the bug for prot warriors where Brutal Vitality doesnt continue to add absorb to Ignore Pain after youve hit the cap once?
Owh yeah test of might is backkk
3,180 primeval essence and 145.5k anima later...all 38 specs are 226+
Holy shit son. I just got one tapped by an ele shaman in PvP
how many m+ bossess in 10.0 will have an extra camera affix, like half of SoA was in Slands?
Can't think of any?
PvP "balance" in a prepatch.
I remember when Ret during the Wrath prepatch was fucking eating entire teams alive.
It was actually stupid amounts of damage
in academy on the last boss the camera can clip behind the banners
Hey, how do you guys survive solo Shared Suffering in lower Kara? I seem to always die unless ppl stack
leap
Keep in mind that you can only "solo" it via leap jukes if he's about to phase anyway. Otherwise, he'll just wind it up right after he stomps over and put his sword up your ass sideways.
You are, quite literally, waiting to be saved by the bell.
Thank you!
You can usually tolerate it with one other melee and a couple of big CDs, though.
You can also juke it with Intervene, but I'd advise against it unless you're very confident in your timings. Improper timings can either kill you or hack apart whatever poor sod you're zipping to if you go too early.
So then they're not ready to throw CDs to endure a 2-man soak, and will typically get bodied.
At least with leap you can aim somewhere that'll take him away from allies so if you do fuck it up, they can hopefully scrape you before it gets completely out of hand.
Divine storm piped
where can i download mdt imports from for routes?
Hi, i'm having some rage issues, i think that is because i usually spam ignore pain "on CD" (when is on 0, i mean)
but i see streamers and they're not pushing the botton all the time
do you guys use on cd? cd for me means when ignore pain dissapear, use it again
i'm doing mithyc plus so are AoE situations normale
normaly
what does SS/TC means? i'm spanish and i don't understand some spells name
sorry ^^'
not really ^^'
i use block with shield ignore pain and revenge to waste the rage
but in some situations i want a ignore pain/block with shield but i'm out
maybe is not 100% necesary, maybe i just scares a bit, could be
i'll do some runs and try to give you some info
You use ignore pain to dump extra rage not "on cd"
You should be casting shield slam and thunderclap on cooldown (including the shield slam resets) to generate that rage
seems to be a problem with your timers on spells? or does every other cd gets displayed?
You SHOULD be casting revenge to dump as much rage as you can with ignore pain being used for the "extra"
The only time you actively use ignore pain is to set up for a massive hit
with IP talent youll cast it once an your cd dmg will pump it up also
Actively meaning outside of using it to dump rages
Regardless of what talents you have ignore pain usage stays the same
Its a tool to allow you to not waste rage by over capping
shield slam
7.4 seconds on shield slam?
Just look at your haste % in the character sheet
you have this talent so youll never actually wait 7.4 seconds between shield slams
If your spending rage youll get shield slame resets
Your not spending rage properly if your not getting resets
does matter in which spell do you waste your rage? or is just rage wasting?
read the talent, one of those 4 spells
sorry i'm idiot
Don’t run barbaric training either.
In general seems you are just pressing IP to much instead of using it to avoid capping.
looking for a a DKB playstile, healing my self
you are just muscle memoring wrong shit
just have shield block up and you wont need it
This might be a case of pressing the wrong keys
but we would know for sure with a log
many people have charge on 1 or 2 or mouse button for example but stop putting uselesa abilities on prime keybinds for god sake
it's all preference tbf
keybinds are personal pref
not really
the problem right here isn't keybinds
well. we dont know the problem we just trow darts at a wall
blind*
sure 2 is a good bind thats not the thing
but he puts weird non rotational stuff on it
for no reason at all
is a mix of both of you
like 2 is easier to press then P or K for example
How do i log ?
So, if you have been here for a while, you may have noticed that whenever somebody ask for advice we ask them for a log, and if you’re new you might have no idea what that means or how to get one so :
🔸First, download Loggerhead (https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/loggerhead) or ERT (https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/exorsus-raid-tools)
Once you have one of these any time you enter a zone where you might want a log (ie dungeon/raid/pvp) these addons will automatically start logging (in the case of ERT you have to activate automated logging in the options).
Alternatively if you don’t want to install an addon for it, whenever you are going to do an activity you want to log type /combatlog in chat to start logging said activity.
Remember to activate advanced logging in the options
All these options will store your logs in your wow file inside the retail folder and the log file.
🔸Second, go here (https://www.warcraftlogs.com/client/download) download the client. Select the live section of the client, select the upload a log button and select the fight you’re interested in putting up as a log and boom(kin) you’re done.
🔸Third, once you’ve done all this, your log is uploaded you can put it up here and we can look at it together to see if you’re doing something wrong.
do that
post it here
overusing mousebuttons wont save you
and people will help you
....
and people will help you out figuring what's wrong
doing that
🙂
but ye, i'm aggre that i'm not pushing the good keys
press Shield Slam press Thunderclap press Revenge press IP once in a while
press your "bigger"cd's on CD
repeat
i hope 6 is on his mouse or that he has massive big dick hands
If they are bound to an mmo mouse it means nothing.
yep
i've 1-12
shift 1-12, control 1-12 (not all binded)
but 1-6 is the confy zone even with a mmo mouse
i've the charge in the 5 cause i've it from The burning crusade XDD
imposible to not be there
Whatever works for you 🤷♂️
thunderclap icon is horrible btw
why Execute on 4 though 🤔
My execute is on 3 tbh
hahaha
execute is barely used on Prot
It used to be used a lot
i'll but all buffs on 1-4
i have it on some weird shit like Ctrl+5
The good ole days
Might even just unbind it tbh
You don't use it in Execute zone?
Execute prob shouldn’t be used as much in df though from what I gather though yea
not even a push?
No you do im memeing
you can, but its such a small gain
Better off just opening the spell book and clicking to cast it maybe
saw Nome say something like in ST its a 600 dps loss to not click Execute, unless you get Sudden Death proc
it's only a dps increase to use it on 1 target, at 2+ targets revenge is more dmg
and even in ST its only 600dps
yep 
so should probably just click it when procced, or if you really like the animation

So basically unbind it?
not asking anything else or asking anything else but how long will the silence last
Fucking WOOOF man
been close to 24 hours so figured i'd ask that
Howd you get silenced yogi
stop
asking
dumb
questions
and trying to bait me into getting re-banned again
Damn you bout to get your alt account silenced as well
No im actually curious i dont troll this disc 24/7 and usually your pretty wholesome so
when i laid out im not interested asking/answering otheer questions related to question i asked
You could even DM me if you want im legit just curious
okay, well if you know nothing at all of the situation our conversation is closed
No problem With any other timer. Think my problem is I'm tracking the defensive or battle stance aura/buff but that doesn't have the cooldown of switching stances attached to it
Once we get set bonus we're going to be pressing revenge every few seconds to keep the buff up even in ST right? So does that mean even in pure ST execute phase it will often be better to spend rage on revenge instead of execute?
That's so sad lmaooo

I think timed but they can overlap?
Im sure you can try to ping everyone again to figured it out again
why don't you ask a mod
cough jakey appears,
not a mod
ask specific moderation question
im not a mod
🤔
The execute situation actually feels bad
When do you want to execute then
on single target to spend rage offensively
when Sudden Death is procced
No I mean apparently it’s not good to use with tier set or something
we don't have tier sets now
True
yes, for a small gain
When does it feel good
very small
Would it feel good as a gain on 5 targets?
wdym?
Execute is not more dmg than a 5 target Revenge
I guess I was referring to the tier set and execute situation. Seems awkward
Jesus
probably as it was in SL, but thats hard to balance without making our ST way too crazy
Yes that was fun
it does, and its the same situation for other specs unfortunately, fx Arms press Cleave in ST because of Tier
at least is should be a dps increase on like 1-3 targets imo
We'd have to reduce it to 15% range or something to make it a gain on 5
Ya true I do that in beta when I was playing arms. Used cleave over slam
And make it giga deeps
giga weird tbh
Read everything I said and you will find enlightenment
Execute was better on 3 or less targets
It’s because of the tier set… certain builds you cleave over slam. It depends on the situation (m+ build mostly if I recall correctly)
And that was the perfect split
i know, but its a weird design is what i mean
Oh right. Yea agreed
So should i remove execute from bars / move it to something more out of hand ?
It's a gain on ST
Is it worth to farm the dragon glyphs first befor you start grinding quests at the start of df?
there really isn't a whole lot to do until 2 weeks after launch besides a m0 world tour or two
do whatever you like imo
yup
Because someone said you play until you get the dragon riding skill and then you farm those first and then start questing in two days
Unless I missed a vital piece of info somewhere, there really isn't any need to be giga sweaty the first 2 weeks
there isnt any need to be giga sweaty... period
Because release is in two days?
Think that's just bad grammar
👌
by giga sweat i just mean stressing over being optimal.
level to 70 in 6 hours, go do stuff, do m0 tour, afk for 2 weeks
or do the same on alts
👍
stuff
is the hammer from the m0 dun dun worth waiting and stacking a tradable group for?
forgething
What hammer?
was doing crazy damage for me on beta
Forgestorm.
This blue one-handed mace has an item level of 250. It is looted from Forgemaster Gorek. In the One-Handed Maces category. Added in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight.
I mean if it continues doing crazy damage into live and gets past first tuning pass, why not
what % of your damage was it doing over dungeons?
I really hope it gets trashed by nerfs but if its that strong, dont got much of a choice
Explore the open world (turn off quest tracker and take it easssssy)
Will take the 2 weeks to level up
Are professions any good except alchemy?
Also. Since Neltharus isnt on m+ yet, I fail to see how it is a problem.
For Forgestorm
but yeah, if it was on m+ it would be awesome
Professions for cos
thats good, glad to hear
Do we have a rotation guide for dragonflight yet? Or is most things relatively the same.
Hey guys, why do we need Slam if Revenge costs the same, deals more damage and AOE's? Thanks in advance for the answer
we dont need slam
So get rid of it?
Danks
theres no defined rotation for the sspec its a prio that changes depending on many factors eg number of mobs around, current rage, what is on and off cd etc etc
theoretically speaking, if you had a way to change defensive stance to be double it's current effect.. would you do it?
no
hrmm ok.
20% dr is good enough for a toggle tbh and we don’t even really use D stance yet
perma 40% dr is just broken
You could theoritcally pull the entire dungeon.
tbh it feels like prot warrior is tuned around actually being in d stance
err
battle stance**
i dont think we arent tuned around d stance tbh anymore, well our damage isnt anyway
The thing with -% is that, its exponential value. Meaning from 10-20 isnt a lot but a 40-50 is. Learned it from eu4.
Excuse me for bothering you but what's the point of whirlwind if revenge damages about the same and costs 1/3 less
there isnt one
so just spam revenge?
I'd personally love if you had to toggle between the stances like there was some insentive to swap maybe the effect of the stance is doubled for say 10 seconds then you get a reduced effect so you're encouraged to weave both stances and you don't just sit in b stance for low keys and d stance in high keys
that and IP
what profs yall going and why?
find a person using their ip to have a revenge on them or what
Blacksmith so i can sure up my shield/wep slot
mining and engineer because ive benen that since classic
There is an incentive. If you tank swap and you dont have any mob to tank. You can go battle stance.
herbalism alchemy for the flavor of no-magic man covering up weaknesses with performance enhancing drugs
You probably wont use d stance in raid much
On mythic raiding?
Maybe busters
on the last few bosses of mythic in prog u will
As far we know for the current tuning, you'd mostly be in battle stance
Prog on harder hitting bosses it might see use
Dstance woulda been nice for sire D prog lol
but you're not always actively tanking in raid and a lot of the hardest hitting stuff is generally scripted, so
Which you should already be covering with a cooldown which we have a plethora of
Just adding to what you said luerce
we say the same thing.
Yeah, so outside of probably last few bosses, it won't see much use
Rend is good? Sounds like twice the damage of revenge for the same price isn't it?
I cant believe we dont agree on something that we all agree.
unless they also hit like wet noodle, in which case lmao dstance for nerds
You talent into it but dont press it
why tho?
Iirc the talents name is blood and thunder (i dont look at names jusg effects) and that casts rend for you
because tclap applies it
blood and thunder makes t clap apply
With blood and thunder talent, TC puts rend on everything
read your talents lol
Oh thanks]
Basically.. Take it off your bars and free rends with TC ;D
But you need the point in rend for blood and thunder to work
Guys, dont be harsh. We are all in this channel to learn from each other.
And where is that talent if u don't mind me asking?
No people should really read talents before asking questions
yo bois, at what rage amount is execute worth pressing?
Rather than reading talents, it's in the pins
nobody was harsh
The damage scaling is linier it doesnt matter how much
"------------Rend------------
How does Blood and Thunder work?
With Blood and Thunder and
Rend talented, Thunderclap
automatically applies Rend to 5 targets it hits.
- No you dont need
Rend on your bars"
from nome
Thanks
Someone could explain ne how spellblock works to non Blockanke Hits ?
ok, I get it. But sometimes, information is in your face but you cant see it.
it doesnt matter about rage it matters about what else in on cd and if your teir set is about to drop
#skill issue
You could block magic dmg. You dont spell reflect.
I mean for example the missiles of medivh
I hope there are big damage spells to reflect, I love watching mobs nuke themselves
Check the pins, there is a SR chart up
I dont know what it is. But if it is magic dmg, spell block and shield block.
it just reduces the damage like blocking
How much?
i usually press execute only if im on ST (or Prio target) and nothing else is rdy, thats the way to go, right?
The other guy was asking about spell block. As I said, we are all here to learn.
Pros or Noobs.
Ah nice ty
u press it when both SS and TC are on cooldown, and your tier set isnt going to drop so its very niche, u dont just spam it like before
When talent tree was first revealed I seen juggernaut and the crit/execute damage nodes and was really excited to try a big execute build as prot but 
yer it was tested
did less damage
than SS sb uptime
because of all the nerfs to execute
"You have been weighed, measured, and found wanting"
Wait did i read that right? We are primarily using battle stance over defensive stance? Maybe switching to defensive during big hitting raid mechanics?
no its dependant on how comfortable u are
but 99% of ppl will not do content where d stance is needed
but its a very personal thing
Battle stance is more dmg. If can keep yourself alive with battle stance, why not?
Yeah true. I dunno why i never really thought about it.
Makes alot of sense to just sit in battle stance if you arent dying haha.
Yeah, and with how much survivability prot warrior has. It is really too much the defensive stance.
The age old "Why do i need more defense if i just hit it harder and it dies faster" 😄
They make a tank that doesnt use tank buff. - Wow balance and dev team.
I always suggest ppl who learn tanking do it with the least amount of extra defensive things taken that way when you do hit a wall you have extra options to try
remove the 10% or balance our damage around and ill be in it all the time
Agree
Good advice.
Start with defensive stance when you try something new. Switch to battle stance when you are comfy.
To be honest. When m+ goes live and forgestorm would be available on m+, there is going to be a big flame on wow community of how broken it is.
Is forgestorm available in the current m+ pool?
no
can you valor upgrade m0 drops?
And is it right that execute isnt looking worth it in dragonflight?
it is worth it
It will still be worth using
But when you get your tier set, you will have to juggle revenge and execute during execute phase to keep your 2/4 piece from falling off
There is no reason to have blacksmithing anymore because nothing is BOP. Is that right?
Thanks for answering my questions guys.
I mean.. if you want to craft stuff without the AH.. Then yes, you still need BS
yes and no. you can do work orders to get any BOP item made. but you can't guarantee you're going to get the highest quality (ilvl) pieces
Nor can you guarantee they wont charge an arm and a leg ;D
true
so the cheapest and only guaranteed way to get the highest possible crafted items is still to be that profession
^
and recrafting it if your stat priorities change
Havent been paying attention whatsoever the past monthish... How happy or sad I am? How is everything looking and feeling?
Who gets to be top dog and who is bottom of the barrel going live tomorrow?
very happy
Sad. Was hoping i just misread the timezones or smt. Guess its another 24 hours 😦
who's ontop tomorrow is turbo irrelevant as there is no real content to do
Do you think they will balance all tanks a lot before raids open?
Or will it mostly stay as it is?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I will play warr, regardless. I'm just curious 🙂
probably more tuning to come
Trying to predict what blizz will do is a futile endeavor lol
There is always tuning after first week of heroic
Not predict as looking into a crystal ball but I sorta expect the community to have good enough grasp to know the outliners, if any. And what is likely to come.
everything opens same week
first week of heroic is also first week of mythic
Oh lord. So when raids open you can do mythic?
ye
yup
all but lfr opens at the same time
Lets be honest, unless they are SEVERELY undertuned, they wont be doing mythic day 1 tho
you never know
They probably will. Mix and match gear for what they can get
What is it, 50 ilvl difference from M0 gear to mythic boss drops?
Nobody wants to be behind just as much as nobody wants to hit the wall
def, but I'm also 99% certain we'll see at least one boss dead on day 1
I mean the “claim” they aren’t tuning around longer world first racing anymore, so the difficulty for those players might be easier now etc
372 for M0, 415 first boss mythic
i won't deny that it's possible but i doubt it
my warrior still has a 272 shield
Funneling for tier will be better for their time than attempting content above them tbh
previous xpac launches you had a full weekly reset to do normal, heroic and limited m+ for gear before mythic release - which is a huge step up from m0
I doubt rwf will bother with the time investment on day one. But it will be a huge thing to get the world first kill. Its a reputation booster, specially if you're in the 50-100 world bracket.
cant even valor up the shield i have now
don't think any real competitive guilds care about first boss world rank lol
@sick sentinel uhh.. THere is a 278 shield in uld?
yeh. but how many are competitive after first page? Thats what, 25 guilds?
How many names do you know outside the first 10?
Out of them all was the point. Even if it means very little on the context of rwf, it's still a huge achivement that will make a nobody guild get their 15 minutes of fame. Thats why im sure it will happen on day 1
i guess yeah
Eh.. after 15min, they are still nobody tho...
Tbh, most people dont even care what the bigs do
wasnt this the case in sepulcher
They care about advice the bigs give about bosses and strategy.. Other than that, most dont care
so this might be a BIG what if but do yall think bliz will nerf prot wars defense wise?
Eh idk. We arent godlike or anything
true true
didnt shadowlands servers open up a bit early? or was it spot on?
Guys is BSV broken?
Trying to test it out to make wa’s and stuff
And it just refuses to proc
On live sever not beta, using tanking dummy
is it really two weeks before m+
Yes
same as always
gonna be rough lol
i'm happy to have time to juice alts and proffs tbh
m0 at least right?
Yes, you can do m0s
you can still join m0 groups even if youre locked out of loot right? just to get used to mechanics etc
havent really kept track of professions. is it something i should pay more attention to?
Yes, no loot tho
I figured I might aswell help some friends do their world tours
update, no, after 5000 attempts it procs
Uhh not sure what you mean. Just popped it on and pulled some mobs.. Procced right at 30% @uncut notch
It does have a cd of 3min tho
I ended up sending a bug report in anyway for my previous question as nice as it is.. there could be other warriors in a similar state.
ie: you can have legacy defensive stance and current defensive stance active at teh same time, and they stack.
had a permanent shield wall basically, and it persists through logout.
they must have messed something up in consolidating the buffs, because you can't even remove the legacy buff. You could just be in both battle and defensive at the same time
Battensive stance new meta
I mean I had fun for 48 hours with it lol
RIP your damage, though
well it was 20% less damage.. but 40% DR (shield wall) could have helped push content early on lol
I asked a random warrior last night what he saw.. but for a short time I could have been a super warrior
how old is that legacy defensive stance
I hadn't played since shadowlands season 1.. so then? hah
it is yeah
epic
I couldn't remove it, couldn't click it off etc.. was just always active hah
they disabled the spell but didn't purge people who had it currently on is my guess
what if you spec arms and then swap
persisted, I only lost it when I died earlier really pushing the limits of what I could pull while solo lol
but I've had it for the last 3 days and couldn't get rid of it hah
love that for you
Any good links on general thoughts where prot will be? Been thinking of maining prot next expansion instead of fury.
it will be a tank that's for sure
nate said tanks are pretty well balanced atm so i trust him 
they are, shouldnt matter anyway, just play what u enjoy
real lore
what professions are you all leveling and why ?
mining eng because that's the ones I always lvl
engi alch because that's the ones I always lvl
because they dont really matter

They added a real AH to the main city this xp, so dropping eng for inscription to play with the darkmoon decks early
how do you recraft gear - just find a blacksmith?
( not a cool kid with the bronto )
Can someone link me the bluepost where it says dinars will be deleted in dragonflight?
also did they say what else will be deleted, like honor and conquest?
or flux
honor, valor and conquest usually get reset when a new patch releases
idk if they are nuking dinars, i see no reason to do so
ok ill be a tank i guess
pretty much everything thats currency gets deleted

Hi everyone. I’m trying to learn how to tank as war in DF. I run out of rage fast then I try to have IP and SB op all the time so can someone here help me a bit? I’m coming from prot pala and other tanks so I’m not new to tanking
IP is not a maintenance buff
it's a way to dump rage defensively and/or an off gcd rage spender
what is the right time to dump rage on IP
When you'd cap rage otherwise is the closest thing
Which is quite often
It doesn't sound like it, but we can gen a lot of rage
you just kinda use it to avoid overcapping, or you smooth out rough incoming damage
xD
tank rotation is mostly on the spot decisions
outside of the general rotation of 123
well it makes sense to think of it as more of a priority list than a rotation
i mean it's just a regular priority list like any other spec but you have to think a bit more about defensive cooldowns
mods help can we ban cro for bringing up my ptsd of tank rotations in ff14 for like 70% of levels
the 123, it haunts me
idk what that means but no
123
FF14 tank rotations are literally pressing 123 over and over for most of the levelling experience
Since buttons "combo" into each other
The worst part is you often get dragged into low level instances where your rotation is limited to that of the intended level for the dungeon
hey can u solo tank jailor on normal
yeah it's fine at max
im pretty sure there's a tank swap mechanic based around destroying pylons last i checked
damn
u can ignore that mechanic and phase early
but that requires a bit of raid dps
and externals for the tank
its a shit pug
i would not bank on it then
Okay. Then I die people say I need to have IP up more then I do so are SB better to have up then IP? Else I need som help to the basic thinks
I have not tried yet
don't listen to people that don't know how to play the spec
SB is way better than IP as mitigation (assuming the damage you take is blockable (which is the majority of damage)
How are prot warriors in m+ environment in terms of stops and utility compared to other tanks?
idk what other tanks have but warrior has:
AP shout
Spell reflect
Rally
Spear of bastion
Intervene
1 low cd ranged st stun
1 low cd aoe stun
1 high cd 5 target fear
So I need to have SB up as much as possible? How do you keep rage up? I can only find spender ability’s
No
You need to block as much damage as possible
There’s a difference
you generate rage through shield slam and thunder clap as well as some passive generators
we dont run spear in m+
Shield slam and thunderclap
it's niche and idk the dungeons
Is intervene useful at all?
Plus your bleeds generate rage
so better safe than sorry
missed inturpt shout 
Yes
not really without safeguard
Not as much as it is with reprisal but it can be
It’s an extra mobility button and it can be used to delete mechanics
I used it a fair bit on Temple 3rd boss to get out of circle but otherwise 🤷
I think I have to try it out in keys and open space
If you only have 4 proffesions to pick (2 chars) and the goal is useful and try to stay gold neutral (getting what I need without spending gold, i dont have to make massive amounts)
What would you pick and why?
mining engi
herb alch
QoL
no bs?
you can if you want it
You don’t need to do any profs tbh
Just thinking about the trade orders stuff for crafted gear
Can't you just work order the pieces you'd want anyway?
need wormhole,,,
still gives the double duration bonus i suppose?
if/when you go phial spec ye
they brought back the specializations for each proff? Like elixirs mastery or w/e they were called back in the day?
Intervene is nice for arms still
kinda yea but you unlock all of them eventually
Can cheese mechanics by popping dbts and intervening the target of a melee attack
Hello and goodevening/day/morning
been wondering what professions to pick up (raiding and m+ currently)
Alch(flask duration) + engi (for portal)
would you skip 1 and go gathering for 1 of them and pick X up later in patch when prices are not giga ?
herb/alch or mining/engi
might be wrong forum but 🤷♂️ playing warr so 😛
wormhole overrated
but engi can do mass rez now so worth thinking about. (think its bound unlike brez one)
Rezzing is a healer problem
Only soft power comes from alchemy/engi as far as I'm aware
Anything else would be more suited to a wow economy discord
im just thinking of the pulls where tank is last alive and finishes the pull and just waiting for others.
^ agreed
Do you have to choose phial spec over potion spec to get the double flask duration?
mainly interested in alch trinket potentially + the alch passive
guess engi is just for some items ? hearing gear is coming back ?
craftable *
Cause potion spec gives you extra potion duration right? Seems hard to choose double flask over that
just get to 50 skill and get both
also its only noncombat pots that extend
Last I checked potion spec seemed pretty underwhelming
what is gonna be your leveling talent build ?
nice video about prot warrior pinned 🙂 abit nice to listen about the talents etc. Can reccomend if you are still figureing out all talents and so on.
Black smithing seems cool if you can keep the ILVL relevant. The special things some of the armor gets seem really good for Prot
Go Mining/Herbing. Find friends that do Alchemy/Blacksmith/JC/etc. and send them mats or provide mats for their work orders. winning 🙂
Brace for impact and unnerving focus not as good as previously thought thanks to rextroy
Are there any soulboune gear specific to profession in DF or no? Besides alchemist stone
Soul bound *
engi goggles
Engi helm
Hello fellow wurriers
im gonna run alch/herb because herb talent tree seems interesting
Was looking at blacksmithing but it seemed underwhelming
I have mining and always an engineer but was wondering if I should drop mining for alch, probably going to do herb/blacksmithing on my alt
I feel like engineering is going to be lots of fun
It always is
do we have a sick leveling build
Yeah go prot and AoE pull kek
🙂
Maybe the heroic throw talent would actually ve useful to pull more shit at once while running around
titan throw ur wat to 70 
Tag all the things 
tomorrow will be only 1 hour of maintenance for NA servers?
Well the launch isn't until like 9 hours after that maintenance so I'm sure it's probably last minute prep shit
Oh ok, thxx
There is nothing they need to roll out. It’s already in the client.
Its like shadowlands, we'll receive a quest yeah?
I'm talking about back-end shit, not game changes
Like SL was just the time hit the mark and a quest popped up.
yep, thxx
we already get the quest now
We just can't finish the whole thing
They just throw a switch an you can.
the quest that sent you to the zeppelin tower outside of Org or the docks in Stormwind is the intro to Dragonflight. Only difference is there will actually be a zeppelin/boat tomorrow
Oh no.. I'll be honest I never looked into the crafting stuff.
Anyone have any idea how long it will take an average Joe like me to hit 70?
Read it is supposed te be quite fast compared to earlier releases?
I sell bridges
6-10 hours depending on how you quest
So <1 hour per level, that is quick yea
Yessssssss
I just realized this gif would be hilarious if they all yelled UwU
wait when did they nerf warrior rage gen
can anyone gimme a link i cant find it anywhere
but its recent?
Uhhh like early November
Good idea to get all the dragonriding glyphs as you level, no rush besides tinkering with profs and doing m0 world tours
Pretty sure the only recent one was when they stealth nerfed blood surge to 7% instead of 10. That got reverted recently.
oh cool
anyone here leveling as prot?
I’ll prob level as prot, not super fast, but it’s honest leveling
as what else can you llevel as? .-.
Just means pull bigger and big clapping
arms idk
don't they have victory rush still
I run prot, wife runs ele. Not much risk in open world with that
I won’t lie though, I do like pulling like everything on my screen and just laughing as I mitigate and clap em to death, unless it’s a bunch of casters, then I cry.
Plus I feel like a god when I kill elites/super tough world enemies- even if the battle takings like 30 mins 
I prefer prot 9/10 times. Can't pinpoint what expansion that truly sucked but for most part? It's not THAT bad, its just slower.
This time, i'll lvl as prot to practice muscle memory and new mmo mouse.
Maybe you gain 1-2 lvls in speed by going arms or fury but if you're used to pulling everything? It could end up with you spending more time dead too 😛
Yeah I am just much more comfortable with the prot rotation.
yea I am fine leveling as prot but I'm still probably playing the other specs as max level
if arms has victory rush then I think that's also pretty good t level as
Same, i've always played all 3 specs off warrior, they're usally on the good to great level in terms of fun, at least to me and 100% in comparison to the other melee specs 😛
Makes me want to have glad spec back, bit redundant but it was decent idea.
what time is launch tomorrow? still have to work till 5 pm
damn im too slow
damn is perfect
Launch is in 23hrs25minutes
5 pm CST

for me
Gonna be logged in from like noon on and hope I can dodge a queue since I work from home
Same! Will get online soon as I get back from my dentist appt
Novocained up for the launch
Ohh, this will be my first expo as horde and while i've been on high pop never really been on full realms. Any idea how bad dreanor or eu overall will be in that regard?
insane
tarren mill, draenor etc
Oh I'm in NA. No idea
I get home at around 10pm from the gym, will 2 hours be good enough to just start 23.59?
Ive only ever had queue problems with Classic since their server infrastructure is different, cant remember last time I was in queue for Retail
Dumb question, I tried to search and didn’t get the exact answer. But Reprisal is dead in DF yeah? There’s no talent to replace it - it’s just Shield Charge now?
easiest way to badlands?
no clue, was a complete fiesta when shadowlands released is all i remember. might be enough, might not be enough
guys u have any link for prot bis ?
is there some addon that can keep me logged in? Or is that breaking tos?
@tender cove you can have the game running at home and control it remotely via teamviewer or a similar app on your phone
2 hrs should be fine
its one mouseclick per 29 minutes right?
I dont know the exact requirements
pretty sure its 30 min to logout and another 15 minute to exit from login screen but dont qoute me on it
im not suire how TOS compliant it is either to be fair
Once every 2 years should be fine, i hope lol
I personally don’t see how you could get in trouble for remote playing a game.
Not that I would put much stock into it but Towelliee publicly talks about using a remote app to stay logged in.
That is no problem. I used todo that daily for years when I was making a career. I was thinking about preventing logout, i think they won't like that, at least not regularly.
Now if you’re talking about auto clicking? You’re flirting with botting versus you manually clicking from your phone.
Yeah. I honestly don’t remember how Shadowlands release was. Can’t remember huge issues with launch but I could be out of touch.
just get off of work early bro lol
tell them you really need to go home because you don't feel well
Its gym time, can't compromise on that lol
wake up at 5 am like I do
every day to the gym
problem solved
I dont wanna go full OT but i'll just say this, there's something wrong with you, no offense bro ❤️
5 am? xD
Yea, I wake up at 5 am, walk my dog, eat my pre workout shake and Im there by 6:30
I wake up at 6am to work out before work. But I start work at 8
I could never do that. i'm a zombie until AT LEAST 2 hours after I wake up.
Kick the caffeine. It'll make a world of difference
yeh, its a known issue, specially all the coke zero i drink. With the preworkout, think i average 350mg per day.
I pop 2 scoops of citrulline mallate, 1 scoop beta alanine and 400 mg of caffeine
that's my pre-workout drink
wait what? 400mg in one preworkout? Thats crazy high bro. Mine was over the entire day xD
no fancy pre workouts here
yea I usually workout 60-70 minutes
I've been 0 caf for about a year now. First two weeks were rough but now I fall asleep easier and wake up usually 5-10 mins before my alarm
I have high caffeine tolerance
easily 1000+ on heavy days/peak weeks, no issues sleeping or waking up on time
it's no bad really, too much caffeine is maybe 600+ mg
yea I come back and drink my large Americano after that
no problems
Im impressed by those numbers, I get caffeine anxiety, really badly, if I go above 200-250mg in one go.
then also my intra workout drink has 2 additional scoops of citrilline mallate
for a total of 4
You're more coffee than blood at that point lol
I have family history with heart disease. Lost my grandpa at 59, Lost my aunt at 45 and dad survived a heart attack at 58
my workouts are hard so the caffeine I drink gets washed up in that
I am extremely active person so it doesn't affect me
I do like 15k to 20k steps daily on top of my workouts
A friendly tip (ask a doctor first) but try go donating blood. Will keep haematocrit levels (blood viscosity levels) lower and less chances for stroke, heart attacks, blod clots etc, and you're also potentially helping to save a life. win win.
How do you have time to prot war? 🙂
that's because I walk my dog 3 times a day
I just came back to the game
day 1 for me
so we will see
Our dogs get gassed about what is 3k steps for me.
I train on average 90 min per day, 6 days a week. Now during winter i walk considerably less but I still avg 10k step, usually its double on summers. I'd die on 600mg caffeine xD
I am an old man with bad knees. Trying to drop weight. Was at 285lbs in July and now down to 250. 30 minutes of rowing every other day and 40ish mins of walking the dogs
Great work bro! Keep it up. Remember its a marathon and not a sprint, lots of life choices come into it aswell 🙂
make sure you strengthen your bones with resistance training, even bodyweight ones
Oh yeah lots of dietary changes.
most people are under muscled it's not really about having too much weight
If you need help or have questions about anything diet or training really. Just DM me 🙂
yup, for 90% its just a matter of doing anything to be honest 😛
❤️ Deadlifts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWUcHKAj_tc
Awesome. What a badass.
Yeah mostly I needed to be better at doing push aways more than push ups.
And COVID didn't help. Moved to working from home, not going out as much so would do boredom visits to the kitchen 🙂
Jirsa gave great advice above tbh. Focus on strengthen bones with resistance training, its a fantastic start, specially if you have any issues with joints, doesn't matter knee, elbow, rotary cuffs etc.
Yeah I got a rowing machine in the basement. It's been great so far.
If you can, invest in a set of resistance rubber bands, they usually come in packs of 5, in colors depending on resistance , usually from 1 kilo up to 20. You can do a complete body workout at home with that and progressivly focusing on gently overloading.
What’s the highest Ilvl we can craft a shield in DF
I'm sorry. I always get to passionate about training but i get its the wrong forum for that. Love y'll ❤️
@thin cedar S1 unless they changed it in the past week it will be 418, but that is baring in mind the materials needed such as Primal Infusions.
Holy shit guys. I though 450 caffeine a day was bad. I low key feel better about my caffeine consumption haha. I’ve been trying to cut down cause my high blood pressure
I’m sure tanking lfg isn’t helping with the blood pressure though 😂
So this Calling the Storms daily is just to try to farm gear right
yeah... the goal is to change your diet so you can tank pugs without risking your health 🙂
Not sure what other things I should prep for
prior to tomorrow
got that early event done
@copper lion you can get a heirloom trinket and a reagent bag from the event too
Hardest thing for me is bread and chips, I hate sugar so that helps man Cheetos, I ironically are my weakness
I’m taking a break until tomorrow myself
