Oh. Shit. Yes.

oak echo

#

@sick sentinel all tanks get that

sick sentinel
#

#

yh i know.

radiant locust
#

20 first week first seasons seems a bit tough

#

If people is timing the 20's first weeks we could expect 30-35 for the S1 maybe

sick sentinel
#

i know all tanks have 650% im saying if im going pure dps build will i take aggro

tender cove
#

Is there some WA for dungeons? Like the "super secret shadowlands dungeon pack" ?

mellow quartz
oak echo
#

unless your other tank is afk, no

sick sentinel
#

cool

oak echo
#

your other tank better be going dps too

tropic gorge
#

I've had agro ripped from me, but that requires a massive ilvl gap

#

Like a huge, entire tier gap

sick sentinel
#

from a dps or a tank?

mellow quartz
#

It’s what, 20% more to pull aggro from melee?

tender cove
tropic gorge
#

Tank. During sl I ran with a warrior guy in a pug that had a lot of ilvl on me, dude would outright rip it and I couldn't do anything about it lol

mellow quartz
#

Yes obviously

sick sentinel
#

ngl im prob gonna double the other tanks dps they are pretty casual, obviously or they wouldnt let a prot war go dps lol

strong forum
#

threshold to take threat is 110% in melee range 130% in outside of melee range

sick sentinel
#

meh that kinda sucks i dont wanna play fury/arms in vers/haste gear and tank trinkits etc

mellow quartz
#

Guess they can taunt on CD

Increased aggro generation during the 3s after taunt

#

That may have changed and I missed it

lucid dew
#

Does anyone know the two bis embellishments

#

The shield seems sick and so does the versa stack on the blacksmith armor

nova cosmos
#

How good is blue silk lining for us? I heard it's around 1k mastery

toxic pewter
#

I hear the helm may be nice, im actually worried the helm might be best and my engi goggle were a mistake 😮

#

i think flame thrower aoe is uncapped i just did a million damage on 10ish mobs

#

in 6 seconds

tropic gorge
#

Holy shit

toxic pewter
#

but the 10 min cooldown is a big downside

tropic gorge
#

So, do really, really big pulls:)

toxic pewter
#

Yah I think if everyone in a group has a flamethrower it could be kinda cool

Is asmongold going to get prot warrior nerfed all my friends r telling me it’s op

strong forum

every tank is OP

#

#

lmao

lusty tiger
#

Good

#

The way it should be

#

Attracts 5head dps players

paper coral
#

It comes down to preference of playstyle.

#

Nome, can we speak about BRM? Is their lack of self sustain compared to other tanks possibly an issue? I've spoken with healers and for M0s they dont like BRM because they actually have to heal them.

#

I asume that will change in higher content as far as everybody needing to be healed

#

Can emblelishments be recrafted? Thinking to use my spark on a shield not sure if its a good idea

uneven mason
#

Every X-Pac before df

uneven mason
#

BRM is slapping right now

tropic gorge
#

Don't take much of anything a streamer or YouTube person says terribly seriously

sick sentinel
#

i enjoyed 9.3 BRM

#

nf

tropic gorge
#

Not all of them are always wrong, but most of them are wrong 100 percent of the time

paper coral
# uneven mason BRM is slapping right now

totally anecdotally, I ws doing a WQ last night and a 370+ BRM pulled a bunch of mobs and was super low HP and trying to run away and I popped in as my 364 self, aoe taunted and cleared the pack and my HP didn't move.

#

I realize that doesn't translate to ANYTHING in real content

#

but it was kind of surprising

uneven mason
#

They have to press buttons and sadly BRM mains are not used to pressing buttons

..... I just said all I can find on wago throw errors. would love a link to one that someone currently uses and can verify doesnt. maybe its something in my addons causing it but I dont think so. im specifically looking for some sort of indicator whether its capped or when its not up

uneven mason

Ok but why

mellow quartz

There is an IP WA in the pins

found it. but thanks!

#

I see what you mean about being a bit wide lol

tender cove
#

yeh, i honestly cover that under my bars cuz its so wide but I like the overall feel so i stick with it

hollow mesa
#

@candid path the new infographic page on wowhead is super cool, but might be worth adding weapon enchants/consumables to that page also?

modern brook
#

IDT llarold designed the infographic fwiw

#

as in the actual layout of it

hollow mesa
#

oh rip. mb lol

dusty prairie
#

are armor spikes any good as an embelishment?

#

not sure of proc chance

orchid torrent
#

hey dudes, when should i refresh shield block? 2 secs left?

slim dove
#

absolute doggy dog shit

dusty prairie
#

oof

sick sentinel
#

1.5% is a lot higher than mine

modern brook
sick sentinel
#

Was like 0.5% for me

modern brook
#

and with rec'd talents 100% uptime is not only feasible its expected

sick sentinel
#

Get the food enhance packet

toxic pewter
#

just did a uldaman m0 flame thrower was 5% of my overall damage, 2 casts done, not a great 2nd pull either

modern brook
#

so the short answer here is really "it doesnt matter just keep it up"

sick sentinel
#

It’s goated

orchid torrent
modern brook
#

yeahp

#

I think it caps at 3x duration?

orchid torrent
#

right right

#

makes it much more easy

modern brook
#

but actually hitting that is pretty hard to do naturally

orchid torrent
#

thnks!

modern brook
#

np

dusty prairie
next burrow
#

what did u prot wars spend ur sparks on?

lucid dew
#

I don’t know what we are supposed to craft

#

I’m thinking about engi items for tinkers too

ocean bloom
modern brook
#

the Bolster bonus also increases the cap too

ocean bloom
#

yeah

modern brook
#

And Shield charge is the only method i can think of

#

which agian probably isnt getting you to cap

ocean bloom
#

well you can doubled SB + SC but thats still not going to overcap

toxic pewter
#

yah better to wait and save spark

lucid dew
#

My hypothesis is 2 engi items and the 2 bis embellishments whatever those end up being

#

The shield and BS belt look good

toxic pewter
#

yah thats basically wat im aiming for currently got my goggles today

#

the embellished helm may end up being good

#

so not sure what happens with that in regards to goggles

lucid dew
#

I think the helm is the same proc as belt

toxic pewter
#

oh cool then

lucid dew
#

Checking now

#

The shield looks good though

dusty prairie
#

shield of the hearth right?

#

or primal molten with an embelish?

toxic pewter
#

plate pants seem good just get more haste

lucid dew
#

Shit it’s wrists not belr

#

Belt

#

But tier

#

Can’t take pants and helm

toxic pewter
#

yeah prob true

dusty prairie
lucid dew
#

The one with the proc

#

Shield of the hearth

dusty prairie
#

ah, was wondering since you can't embelish that one and was wondering if maybe an embelished primal molten was what you were talking about

lucid dew
#

No it has an embellishment built in

#

That counts towards one of your two

dusty prairie
#

o it counts as one? thought it was just a equip effect

lucid dew
#

Unstable frost fire belt could be good in mplus

#

Nope it counts

dusty prairie
#

might try and craft a quality 4 one of that one then if primal moltens embelishments are lackluster

lucid dew
#

I think the only embellishment that could be good is armor spikes

dusty prairie
#

i asked a bit earlier but a lot responded saying it wasnt doing to well

#

so guessing hearth is the better

lucid dew
#

Yea I heard that too

#

Can’t go wrong with versa

loud patrol
#

perfect for prog

lucid dew
#

Why it just saves gold

loud patrol
#

yeah

#

gold spec bis spec

lucid dew

Haha

#

Look at the neck

#

Could be good as well

dusty prairie

rotund thicket

what else should we take then?

sick sentinel
#

i had a 2hand sword int drop earlier for me

dusty prairie
#

could craft a piece of gear with one on it already or maybe food buff to save gold?

uneven mason

gold doesnt matter, asking for actual combat power @strong forum any suggestions?

This neck

It's the most busted out of them all so far.

paper coral

Ahh, ok, so my first spark should go to either helm or neck probably?

pallid quiver
#

Mine's going helm because it's one of two slots that are not at least 372 at this point

#

convenient it was on an actually decent slot to craft for

paper coral
#

I dont think I have a 372 helm yet either. should i use a titan matrix on it? the big one.

pallid quiver
#

But neck, helm, shield, and engi bracers are the four things I've seen people regularly craft

can safely use the matrix we got this week for free

i sued it for sword

but it doesn't seem siming good

wispy kite

It's also saying that scale does more than Ruby whelp which is hilariously wrong

#

I had teh Arena World quest with a free titan matrix

dusty prairie
#

is blood of the khansguard good to use? 899 primary for party seems neat

strong forum
#

I think it's just a case of Ruby whelp not being implemented really well

It's only armor for your party

#

Not the primary

dusty prairie

o

#

nvm then

worldly ember
#

been proccing crit alot with the welp

dusty prairie

the "and" being in there threw me off

strong forum

It should say additionally it grants armor to your party

#

Look at craft

#

See empty slots

#

Look what empty slot offers

#

Find matrix to put into slot

#

Yes

Same fucking thing

Go check out how a craft order works

Literally just talk to dude, click on item you want and it will explain itself seanbee

#

If that trinket procced mainstat to the party it would be the most broken trinket in the game

Technically no as they share the same reward table. However, if you are looking to max both reps out, it could be advantageous to switch loyalty back and forth each week since you gather rep concurrently and at more of a clip for your loyalty chosen. The goal is to try and max both at the same time to minimize the grind.

I was thinking about what Ion said in the Preach interview that they want to make more evergreen content, I think we will see some style Fated Raids system where we go back to old raids for certain seasons, a more developed version of Timewalking Raids if you will.

you have tier legs with ideal stats

my opinion is that you might want to wait for at least a raid clear and possible even first vault

and then craft a spark item
