the main issue is relatively simple though, you can take 90% physical melee hits but if the 10% magic damage is burstier you're more worried about that

This is how u get people to do it :p

What? Who is declining you?

I suspect on the first day, people will ask for keymaster or no invite.

like it'd be make sense if I was dps #48

"where are all the tanks" in a week

prisma crane

#

i don't think a player who isn't pressing SB is thinking that hard about where the damage is coming from

fossil sparrow

all I know so far is shield charge is good dopamine

fair, but it all contributes

Could be worse... You could be in dk channel.

hopefully DF is alt friendly and I'll get to play more than just my druid this time, back to the og wariror

tbh thinking status in a class discord channel matters is the bigger joke

fossil sparrow
lyric geode
#

Btw. I want to ask this. Is it true that in classic wow, the more dmg you took, the more rage you gained? How it worked?

fossil sparrow
#

yes

#

wasnt just classic, but yes

lyric geode

Ok

lusty grotto

sounds good on paper, sucked in practice, towards end of an expansion you'd be rage starved

last mason
#

vdh has that as a pvp talent lol

fossil sparrow
#

your inability to get hit cucking you was..something

royal coral
#

Have to start taking gear off when fighting bosses

lyric geode
#

I remember a guy today, telling that he wanted to get more dmg taken so he had bigger rage generation.

What do you think about the alchemy and darkmoon trinket? I was thinking about buying the 372 darkmoon one since it's cheap af right now and my trinkets are bad as f*#k

tank nerfs? oh no

they all also cry when they cant find tanks kekw

People get comfy playing bdks and they are bored switching between bdks and druids.

maybe I overvalued it back in the day idk

royal coral
lyric geode
#

If you look at the whole sphere. Druids are still better tanks than us. More utility and quite good survivibility.

mighty valley
#

blood and thunder is great, just absolutely no brain, your first TC basically locks down the pack

fossil sparrow
#

passive leech is a godsend tho

oak echo
#

what feels off about it? plz don't be rending before you tclap

fossil sparrow
#

WHAT DO YOU MEAN

#

THAT'S HOW IT USED TO WORK

lusty grotto
#

i mean people complain about tanks too because some of you cant help fucking pulling the entire dungeon KNOWING FULL WELL that DF dungeons were designed to punish groups more than tanks

fossil sparrow
#

๐Ÿ˜ก

oak echo
#

yeah read the tooltip lol

deft mortar
#

DPS players don't know they have defensives kekw

oak echo
#

it applies rend for you

fossil sparrow
#

oh

#

I was treating it

#

like the wrath blood and thunder

#

fuck

regal estuary
# lyric geode And enchants for some reason....

The reason is that for example, even fully speccing into say Frost devotion, basically top prof gear, I cannot guarantee a 3 star craft. I HAVE to spec into inspiration, make 5 enchants, and 1/4ish will be 3star, the others will be 2 star. It costs 30k to do a single Frost devotion craft. So I gotta risk a ton of upfront money and pray to RNG

oak echo
#

lmao

lyric geode
fossil sparrow
#

that makes it alot smoother

lusty grotto
#

so go into m0 solo

#

the fuck you need a group for

deft mortar
#

I don't

lusty grotto
#

to kill them?

oak echo
#

it was like taht in early DF beta but they changed it a while back

deft mortar
#

It's still same drop chance

#

If it didnt I wouldn't bother

fossil sparrow

dont imagine blood and thunder has been about since like wrath either, thought it was just the same

clearly reading isnt my strong suit

at M+ I will need DPS

@lusty grotto not gonna lie, I kinda enjoyed watching my group getting rekt bc I pulled like a monkey in m0s. They died sometimes and I clapped and chilled ๐Ÿฅน

lusty grotto
deft mortar
#

no because there is 10 dps players for every tank

fossil sparrow
#

I mean he's got a point

deft mortar
#

And they all complain bit too much

fossil sparrow
#

dps players have become lax on using defensives

lyric geode
lusty grotto
#

there's a line that defensives wont help you with if you pull an entire dungeon, sorry

deft mortar
#

a fury warr shouldn't die to mob aoe

#

DKs neither

lusty grotto
#

oh?

#

are you sure?

deft mortar
#

yes I can sustain 10k HPS on my fury lol

lyric geode

You cant use those? Dont expect from me to pull big pulls at m+.

lusty grotto

to one, 2, 3 mob's AOEs maybe

maybe i'm a sick freak but i play this multiplayer game with people i know and like and we learn together how big we can pull and how to control packs

why would someone pug something that's rewardless

tropic sundial
#

the fact that the bad get filtered before that doesn't mean that the vast majority of pugs are not...well...great

mighty valley
#

people complete five dungeons in a row in pugs with no issues then have one fall apart after someone makes a mistake and says "all pugs are bad"

oh and they'll probably say it was because of someone speaking a foreign language

can you all stop queueing heroics, I need cta to pop back up, kthx

if you count every single pug member in your groups

which is why most world quests are just better if someone hits you

like the boss ones

where everyone is hostile to each other

the problem is when youre only pve'ing

and youre hard stuck in 340 pve ilvl base or 353 at 3/5

but timmy the shaman let loose a chain lightning and it happened to hit me? instant 411

stark jewel
#

in mostly ST situations (raid), would FbV be better than BV?

#

in the pinned builds, the 100% SB uptime build has BV, and the parse one has FbV

#

not sure which option to go for

lusty grotto
#

in ST fights rage income is not as great

#

thats why BV is kind of a difficult pick

stark jewel
#

yeah I thought so

lusty grotto
#

since you wont be using IP nearly as much

#

as AOE situations

odd tree
stark jewel
#

although if ur not main tanking, theres no reason to pop SB or IP right?

#

u'd just IP to dump rage if that were to happen

lusty grotto
#

SB no

#

IP yes to dump

stark jewel
#

alright

odd tree
#

SB for SS dmg

lusty grotto
#

but yes

#

you want to boost SS dmg

#

defensivewise you don't but offensivewise you do

#

luckily, while off tanking rage income is better on raids

#

since you can step away and charge for rage gen

and you should

But details never showed the whelp shell working even when I tried using it on an enemy on combat.

cobalt mesa

is there any theorycraft on which items to put embelishment for m+ content as protection war ?

Don't you have to activate it first otherwise the whelp will just derp around

just making sure it is reported to details

cerulean spear
#

any reason enduring Alacrity is not being taken in all builds? seems strong or am i missing something

#

M+ context

strong forum
#

what about it seems strong?

cerulean spear
#

5% armor

mighty valley
#

it would be a decent point but look at everything it's competing with on that tier

strong forum
#

and that 5% armor is better than getting more dps?

cerulean spear
#

i am only asking as i am new to the class

#

wanted to know the reasoning

strong forum
#

yeah thats fine

#

and im asking those question specifically

#

so you can come up with the answer

cerulean spear
#

ok so doing more DPS is more valued than i thought

strong forum
#

its not just "yeah i get these things"

#

its "im getting these things, at the cost of other things"

lusty grotto
#

you wont die to not having 5% more armor

strong forum
#

and its a very low value node

cerulean spear
#

and im guessing mitigating physical isnt an issue for us

strong forum
#

compared to others

#

pwar is BY FAR

#

the best physical tank

#

by a landslide

modern brook
strong forum
#

like the only thing stronger than pwar vs physical damage

cerulean spear
#

thanks for taking the time to explain the thought process

modern brook
#

5% armor is like....1? % str? i think? i cant do math that well

#

from the calss talent

strong forum
#

is a bear in incarn with 11 stacks of ironfur

#

enduring alacrity is the lowest dps node of all the nodes on the pwar tree

#

and also one of the lowest defensive nodes

cerulean spear
#

is bloodborne rank 2 good but too expensive to get in any build?

strong forum
#

not good

cerulean spear
#

since we are valuing dps so highly

strong forum
#

and too expensive

#

its the worst of both worlds

#

bloodborne competes with tough as nails

#

tough as nails is a 1 point node, which does 3-4% of your overall dmg in m+

#

bloodborne is a 2 point node, each point in bloodborne is roughly 1.5% dps gain

#

both nodes are entirely passive

#

but nails does alot more for alot less points

i just noticed

ok and as for trinekts if i have an option between similar Ilvl absorb shield trinkets and Damage proc trinkets should prioritize DPS?

#

or are absorb shields needed for magic

dawn marsh
#

Is using a spark actually a waste rn? Got a 372 shield, asked the guild if someone could guarantee ilvl 392 primal defender and got told it's a waste to use one now. I'm planning to try do normal raids but mostly m+, should I just wait until I get more drops to use the spark?

right, hence focused vigor over enduring alacrity

focused vigor grants armor and strength

as it increases all dmg done

I guess the difference between spikes 2 and 3 is negligible and you can recraft later anyway if need be? Also heard that embellishments are 1% anyway am I correct? Tried to find the numerical difference but can't see it in the UI.
