cleared a +2 jade serpent in like 10 mins wicked

wary heath
#

yeah jade serpent timer is nuts. the mobs SLAP though i felt

#

maybe it's me

arctic sinew
#

Wait can you do any mythic dungeon for current lvl gear now?

loud patrol
#

yeah season has started

#

at least for na

feral wing
#

How is the Alchemy Trinket for us? Im thinking about spending my Spark before Season

arctic sinew
#

What I'm asking is about old content dungeons are now on the current m+ list for current ilvl gear?

feral wing
#

The one with haste I guess

wary heath
#

craft the shield

#

thank me later

feral wing
#

Which shield?

heavy temple
#

Is there a text option for IP to show the % isntead of the value?

heavy temple
#

I have one in my UI, and Id like to adjust it

#

it currently shows the absorb amount, but id like to change it to a % amount

modern brook
#

% of what

heavy temple
#

% of max

#

IP absorb

modern brook
#

The max is dynamic so that sounds like a headache

#

But I'm sure wago has it somewhere

#

Also pro ably not worth the effort to track ip values

heavy temple
#

yeah, value is irrelevant

modern brook
#

% also irrelevant

heavy temple
#

but id still like the option to check if it is full or not

#

Are you really never in a situation with like 40 rage, where you could Revenge or IP depending on your IP value?

modern brook
#

Not really

mighty valley
#

it's really really rare that i'd let a GCD be unfilled

heavy temple
#

hmm, even with barbaric training?

mighty valley
#

don't run barbaric training until your stats let you run it without missing GCDs

heavy temple
#

okay

mighty valley
#

maximizing shield slam resets is everything

modern brook
#

^ that harrow fast typer

arctic sinew
#

It might be a waste, but I hit IP like every other thunder clap unless I'm taking alot of dmg, so I never really worry about it

mighty valley
#

yeah, the reality is if you're successfully managing your rage economy by filling every GCD and never overcapping, IP just takes care of itself

feral wing
#

Would you guys go with the shield with customizable stats or the one with the vers proc?

mighty valley
#

it's not until a situation like mythic jailer tankbusters or whatever that you might sacrifice that to ensure a maxed IP

edgy widget
#

Sup guys, there is a wa that shows when use spell reflect? thanks

modern brook
#

Ip gets maintained as a byproduct of playing the rotation right you generate more rage than you can spend with revenge or that you need to spend on block

#

Ip gets the rest because capping is cringe

#

That why tracking it is irrelevant, you're just always going to press it if you're going to cap rage

#

Oh harrow said that too sorry I'm on mobile and trying to be useful

mighty valley
arctic sinew
#

I haven't noticed too much difference in dmg taken since the nerf, I still feel pretty solid but haven't done any keys yet. What about you all?

modern brook
#

The 2nd nerf was always pretty inconsequential tbh

eager schooner
#

No no, pwar is unplayable now - the nerf was massive!

arctic sinew
#

Lol

modern brook
#

Doomers just doomin cause they don't have content to fail at yet

arctic sinew
#

I stopped playing warrior in cata and only started playing again in the prepatch. Pretty much love it more now than during wrath when I had to tank without pants to get rage

wary heath
#

highest i've done so far is +6 , what i've noticed is when I do giant pulls, my group dies to random targeting of magic spells and AOE, is the limiting factor, i don't die though

#

but they get massacred

#

even with my aggro being held

sick sentinel
#

I had like 900 healing deficit in a +8 hov and thats with me pulling all of the wolves in 1 pull

#

shits hilarious

arctic sinew
#

I try not to do pulls like that because dps have very fragile egos

edgy grail
wary heath
#

i made a big first pull in jade serpent, the 3 waterkin, the tital lurker, and the pack after it, my group instantly evaporated, leaving just me

weary python
#

Poof

wary heath
#

probably my fault, but yeah, the magic just targets everyone but you

weary python
#

Gone like a fart in the wind

regal blaze
#

Hey, quick question. What exactly puts rend onto the enemies with thunder clap? The description of thuderclap or rend doenst help and im not sure if i overlooked something in the talents.

wary heath
#

timers are also really lenient (at least at the difficulty i've done so far), talking like 15-20 minutes left

arctic sinew
#

So I asked and it was never answered. What's the deal with old content dungeons? They get keys now or just certain ones?

weary python
#

Do we need to run a m0 for the first key? Or can we grab a key somewhere?

edgy grail
wary heath
#

skip the m0, just join someone elses's key

#

it will be a +2 for you

sick sentinel
#

dude this shit is so bad lol

#

392 btw

regal blaze
wary heath
#

armor spikes doing about 1.2 to 1.5% of my damage, overall OK

edgy grail
#

Yea works for like everything, neat new feature

slim dove
#

I do like consistently being top dam and top healing every key

wary heath
#

i haven't been top dam, but i'm doing about 35k-40k overall

slim dove
#

Been pugging cuz my team is raiding like nerds

loud patrol
#

im wating for my team to come to start doing

pallid quiver
slim dove
#

The scaling feels great. 5s already killing bad dps very quickly

pallid quiver
#

You may also notice that lack of 4 DF dungeons, as well. Those will be next season with 4 more other dungeons

wary heath
#

the mob damage is definitely going up, HP moves, i've noticed party damage is obviously much higher

#

people gotta adapt from m0

lusty tiger
wary heath
#

jade serpent has some wipe level AOE fears

lusty tiger
#

But I’m like “this is the fastest waaaay”

slim dove
#

Jade serpent you just assign 1 kick to each fear mob

#

Not bad but 1 missed kick is gg

wary heath
#

yeah i got feared in the final room, like 40 mobs pulled

lusty tiger
#

Jade serpent

wary heath
#

i laughed

lusty tiger
#

I don’t remember that at all

lusty tiger
#

Are there packs in jade serpent with multiple fear mobs?

slim dove
#

Last pull has 2

#

Room with 3rd boss you have 4 separate packs with 1 each

dusty stump
#

Best horde race for Prot warrior?

grave crane
#

Orc for mog

lusty tiger
#

🧌

#

If you’re going horde, whatever you think is most cool

edgy grail
#

has BV been fixed yet?

solar crown
#

Vulpera it is then

edgy grail
#

or should we still be using FBV?

arctic sinew
#

If my warrior wasn't human from day 1 vanilla, I'd probably be a dwarf for the heritage armor or a gnome for the lols

wary heath
#

i don't think it's been fixed, i'm still using BV in keys, but FBV might be objectively better for the moment

#

it's not like it doesn't work at all

#

it just resets once you cap out

arctic sinew
#

As far as horde I'd make a vulpera tank for the laugh value

sleek echo
#

Whats gonna be our go to flask for m+?

long stone
#

@strong forum which build will you run for raid ? 1 specific or change between bosses?

open gazelle
#

I just did a 9 bad dps kept dieing

oblique badger
#

primal molten defender vs shield of the hearth?

heavy temple
#

is the primal ritual shell any good?

long stone
heavy temple
#

bcs hearth is ass stats

oblique badger
#

yeah, i just wasnt sure on the vers proc

pearl tinsel
#

Which one should I use?

lusty grotto
#

vers proc is ok but it locks you out to having 1 embelished item

oblique badger
stiff linden
#

do armor spikes stack or is it a unique equip/can only have one?

young tartan
#

what stats to go on shield

#

crit haste or haste vers

#

for M+

loud patrol
#

i did haste vers

stiff linden
#

same

wary heath
#

i did haste vers

#

armor spikes

#

haste crit is also great

young tartan
#

yeah

#

im new to the crafting order, does the quality of the primal molten alloy do anything for me?

#

or just r1 is fine?

lucid dew

has anyone crafted the neck yet?

Why no monk tho?

loud patrol
#

monks keks

lusty grotto
#

why are you laughing

#

monks are the highest dps tank in the game

craggy pilot
#

plka farming +10s 🤔

#

or whats going on?

#

they were in +15 earlier, now +10?

lusty grotto
#

need to gear up my dude

errant sedge
#

Farming gear in 10s for an easy push later

lusty grotto
#

did you think they would step in an do 15s with m0 or super rare gear or something?

edgy grail
#

You can

#

In ptr people did 20s with 392 gear

#

So surely with 380 you can do a 15

lusty grotto
#

uh huh

#

in beta you had tier

lyric elm
#

they made 20s harder, they are in line with 16s now

lusty grotto
#

and max ilvl gear

#

in case you completely forgot about it

edgy grail
#

You didnt have max ilvl

lyric elm
#

yes and that too. sets are pretty big

edgy grail
#

You were scaled to 392

#

But yes you had tier

lusty grotto
#

ok ill wait for your 15s run

#

please post

lyric elm
#

at least 5% more mit with sets

hot ore
craggy pilot
lusty grotto
#

its not weird at all

craggy pilot
#

since +11 drops the craft item

lyric elm
#

why is +10 weird? its a good place to be

lusty grotto
#

fast keys easy valor cap

wary heath
#

good place to practice and farm

lusty grotto
#

did you farm valor in 20s in s4?

#

cause i didnt

craggy pilot
lusty grotto
#

i farmed valor in 10 to 15s

lyric elm
#

well 11 is plenty harder than 10

craggy pilot
#

but no clue how big the crafting item is 🤷‍♂️

wary heath
#

Is the bonus loot M+ system still the same from shadowlands? 1 2 3 chest = 15% additional item ?

#

per chest

neon elk
#

U are still caped by sparks for crafted items tho

lusty grotto
#

for the most part yes

craggy pilot
lusty grotto
#

yes, which is why they'll get them after

neon elk
lusty grotto
#

correct

craggy pilot
#

oh ye true

#

forgot the renown thing

#

dunno if plka did that though?

#

he would have to have 2x Renown 25

lusty grotto
#

for 2 items sure

#

but maybe hes waiting out on what to upgrade on his 2nd spark

tender cove
#

I know nobody asked but my own plan tomorrow is to spam 10s :p
I'll mostly pug and banging my head against extra hard content taking extra long time is just not worth it.

lyric elm
#

yea easiest way to get 392

wary heath
#

anyone fail a key yet ?

lyric elm
#

feels EU man

craggy pilot
#

should we do 5man plate grp spamming +10s? 😄

tender cove
lyric elm
#

okayge yup

#

no need to spam 11s since youll be capped on sparks anyway

tender cove
craggy pilot
#

first week is Enraging Quaking it looks like

#

not too bad i guess

wary heath
#

yes very easy

craggy pilot
#

is it Fort?

stark jewel
#

yup

#

its fort

wary heath
#

they gave us easy week on purpose

craggy pilot
#

fort raging hmm

lyric elm
lusty grotto
lyric elm
#

ez pez

craggy pilot
#

how does the Thuindering work?

#
  • goes to - or something right?
lyric elm
#

you get a dmg increase but have to move to another person within 10s or you get stunned for 7s

#

yea +-

craggy pilot
#

ok, is there an idea to do it first sec or last sec?

#

or is it just yolo fast chug it?

lyric elm
#

as the tank you kinda want to clear it fast

#

cuz dps dont want to get into cleaves n shit

craggy pilot
#

but i guess i just do nothing, and let them clear it on me

lyric elm
#

yep

craggy pilot
#

will we get 5 +/- tho?

lyric elm
#

so usually healer will go to you

craggy pilot
#

so 3 + 2 - fx?

lyric elm
#

3+2 so 1 person will be left

#

they will not be stunned however

craggy pilot
#

ye so i guess healer or tank will be left usually?

lyric elm
#

preferably dps but sometimes tank needs to be left yes

jade pulsar
#

No u want big pumper dps to be left

lyric elm
#

theres a lot of cleaving guys in nohkud for example

#

sure you want but its not always possible

main sable
#

Anyone use a specific WA to track show of force or is tracking it not needed?

craggy pilot
craggy pilot
pallid quiver
lyric elm
#

the person left gets the buff for the full duration

jade pulsar
#

U have the dmg buff while u havent cleared it, so the longer u hold the longer dps increase

brave temple
#

strongest tank still?

lyric elm
#

tank does good dps so its not the worst choice

brave temple
#

or is blood dk XD

craggy pilot
jade pulsar

Has talent based macro's been developed yet for this system?

#showtooltip
/cast [known:Thunder Clap] Thunder Clap

#

this one makes more sense 😄

polar raptor
#

I was trying to do one this morning for a pvp specific talent changes, just made new macro, but would rather make them multi spec/build

craggy pilot
#

multi spec doesnt make a lot of sense though

#

i think it complicates it a bit much

polar raptor
#

I just don't have enough macro space for character specific

craggy pilot
#

just flow into the General Macros

polar raptor
#

I could, it's currently filled with mage macro's from OG wrath

craggy pilot
main sable
craggy pilot
#

wouldnt do this Macro in Prot at all

#

but its my best example for what he wanted 🙂

main sable
#

Understood.

#

I'm using a SS IP macro I think found in the macro list in guide or it was in the pins. Can't remember

craggy pilot
mighty valley
#

the idea of the macro is that your IP button also casts SS

#

not the other way around

craggy pilot
#

honestly its a scary macro to show in pins 😄 because people will do this instead of SS 😄

mighty valley
#

yeah, people always asking what they can macro SB into

craggy pilot
#

if you want easy macro for this season, just do
#showtooltip Shield Slam
/cast Shield Block
/cast Shield Slam

#

this usually doesnt work, but it kinda does with the amount of uptime we have now + HR

#

i was considering doing that but didnt go there yet 😄

fathom pine
#

Guys have you found any tank guides for raid? Im checking tanknotes usually. Do you suggest something else?

main sable
#

Correct me if I'm wrong nielsen but I think the macro is to snipe SS procs while being able to get IP going and it supposedly casts it before any rage is spent?

craggy pilot
#

its to save on globals once in a while

#

not sure how often its relevant

#

usually for me i press IP before SS by instinct during the previous global

#

Do we have anything on spark usage?

craggy pilot
#

how fun

hearty terrace
craggy pilot
#

the best one was supposedly nerfed, so theyre all kinda the same

#

its more about which slot you want to keep open for other stuff

#

so you can make shield, neck, ring, bracer, belt, boots

#

all up to you

#

or trinket even

weapon is also an option

a lot of healing

bitter parrot
#

5% is a lot? didnt realize

lyric geode
#

We can easily reach 10%

bitter parrot
#

cool

craggy pilot
#

and Shockwave is not a dmg CD

#

so Sonic Boom is kinda pointless

bitter parrot
#

40k on a pack of 8 mobs

what ilvl it will be btw on max qiality?

fringe fjord
#

i am on EU so no M+ yet

lyric geode
craggy pilot
#

you can upgrade it later to 405, then 418

hearty terrace

#

Also, leech is huge.

fringe fjord
#

oh so its 392 anyways

craggy pilot
lyric geode
#

Lets say you have 20% leech.

hearty terrace
craggy pilot
lyric geode
#

Means that if you do 40kdps overall. You will have a maximum passive hps of 8khps

craggy pilot
#

you can slap either Armor Spikes on it, or the Food embellishment

hearty terrace
#

Fabulous thank you brother xoxo

craggy pilot
#

food embellishment doesnt count as an embellishment though

lyric geode
#

It isnt on demand. For sure, but it is quite handy.

craggy pilot
#

so its free bonus equip

#

why do i always forget if its Leech or Avoidance for M+ 🤔

lyric geode
#

What you say? Does leech feel op?

tender cove
#

ol? old? op? oily?

#

Seeing how much it heals me for, i'd say its gonna be bit OP with lucky gear, yeh.

Also, my question that nobody answered. Would you picked a 4 ilvl lower gear but with leech?

ilvl is king on Str slots

Otherwise m+ replaces both

delicate kraken
#

Always that one random mob in a dungeon that does mortal strike

tulip kelp
#

What's this infusion?

mortal brook
#

Correct. Dont spend sparks without knowing about infusions

warm plinth
#

You do +11-15 keys and get primal focus and combine 10 with 100 primal chaos and it acts like a superpowered titan matrix and you can get up to a 405 item

#

There's a higher one that drops from +16-20 keys but not sure how realistic it is to get those this week for most people. Those go up to like 418 I think?

reef haven
#

Can't you just recraft the spark items with the infusions?

warm plinth
#

As far as I'm aware, yes

#

But at this point if he already has a 382, it's probably worth just waiting til you have the infusion

#

to save some mats

I'm more worried about enchanting my items than some mats sadge

wtf are the weapon enchants prices

warm plinth
#

Are you raiding like heroic or mythic this week?

reef haven
#

heroic yes

Gotcha. I was gonna say if you're not then I probably wouldn't worry about it but I imagine your guild probably wouldn't like that 😂

Because I didn't stick around long in WoD

wary heath
#

Jade is super easy. It's also linear and you have to pull basically everything

#

I hear the 2nd to last boss is pretty brutal in Jade but yeah routing-wise it's a no-brainer

oak echo
wary heath
#

The panda girl? It's very simple fight

warm plinth
#

Court can be a bit daunting at first route-wise because you need to pull either enforcers or clear trash to the mini-boss activators

So you have to get used to where everything is

dont think Liquid started HC yet?

or is it HC currently streamed?

#

looks like quite a lot of the high key US Warriors have 405 Wep with Fang Adornments

tender cove
#

and having LFG tool flood them with people willing to just come and give their gear away for a chance at fame :p

tender cove
#

they should pin the reward structure from m+, just my 5 cents 😄

royal coral

its the effect that proc physical dmg pretty sure

#

tender cove
#

So gotta push at least one key to 16 first week,, go get a proper 415 piece in vault

Is there some weapon+shield we want above others now?

royal coral

Yummy crafted shield

tender cove
#

is there some list for that?

#

Just keep upgrading it is what you say?

#

and eventually you get it 415 or what?

royal coral
#

Tis my plan, but im also a shield spec BS so its on me to upgrade my own shield :p

#

418

tender cove
#

already?

royal coral
#

405 is hc upgrade with 419 max mythic upgrade

Ok, got it confused. I can help you sort this out.

#

What are you doing? Explain when it happems

paper coral
#

Uh, he just does a lot of damage?

tender cove
#

and what are you doing?

#

is it in raid or m+?

paper coral
#

Dragons roar, avatar, shockwave, ravager, tclap, revenge, shield charge

#

raid, why would there be two tanks in an M+?

tender cove
#

I often 2-3 tank with some people but nvm that

#

Is that also the order you send it?

paper coral
#

We're logging, so i'll go ver them after i'm done

#

no.

tender cove
#

Like, how does a pull look for you?

paper coral
#

i'm just slapping them on CD.

#

I run in, avatar, tclap, roar, demo, ravager

tender cove
#

Can you give us the logs? Much easier.

tender cove

So i should have a 100% uptime on shield block in m+ right

I was looking for that

i knew there was one that extended

cinder nova
#

I'm doing less DPS than top parses but my CPM is several grades higher on everything.

craggy pilot
#

But also u might wanna swap those Shockwave talents for dragon roar

sacred flare
#

My avg in m+ of the 2 i ran is about 30k

craggy pilot
#

But up to you tbh

sacred flare
#

M shockwave ends up 2nd damage and alot of interupts

cinder nova
#

It's not that good.

craggy pilot
#

Yea if you like the playstyle keep it

sacred flare
cinder nova
#

Roar is going to do more damage every time.

craggy pilot
#

But dragons roar would do more

#

Since it buffs rend

cinder nova
#

And DW

#

And itself

He's critting maul for 60k on pull lmao

but just not sure about the movement

'everyone rolls with it' what?

It shows like versatility and crit has higher valuation over mastery? Not sure if this is correct

Man you must use every second of them timers

slim dove

go away

Im not starting anything sir just pointing out our health bars do in fact move when you time keys

by "time keys" do you mean +3 with half the timer remaining?

yeah yeah your an absolute gigachad doing 20s with lfg pugs

good meme

anybody come across a windfury value table across specs?

blazing idol

If you are capable than of course

royal coral
#

let me get my dark souls meme out

blazing idol
#

I didn’t say that; If you are timing a 9 than your health bar is moving , I think over exaggeration of warriors power starts a bad rumor

slim dove
#

and your wrong, play your class better

blazing idol
#

I’d love to see a log or anything

royal coral
#

of what? you came in here saying you cant time any keys if u dont giga pull everything, followed by saying if you cant your not "capable"

blazing idol
#

You need to read a little better than

#

Personal problem

slim dove
#

salty brm im guessing

digital frigate
#

There is a CD in our talent tree now right which turns spell reflect into a magic deduction, right?

#

Is there anytime we would take this?

blazing idol
#

No I’m a prot warrior with self awareness , we handle damage very well and steady with minimal self healing. We surely don’t take zero damage and exaggerating starts rumors

digital frigate
#

Am I making sense? I think it’s like 20% less magic damage or something…

mighty valley
digital frigate
sick sentinel
#

👀

mighty valley
#

you might be thinking of spell block, a separate defensive talent that applies your block to magic damage

digital frigate
#

Yeah!! That one.

mighty valley
#

but it's on a choice node with tough as nails, so unless you really really need the magic survivability, it's not usually a great tradeoff

#

we'll learn in time which situations might warrant it, wouldn't put it in your all purpose build

digital frigate
#

I see. Thanks for explaining.

royal coral
#

Guess if theres a raid fight with high magicly dmg proberly

digital frigate
#

I was curious if anyone had discovered a use for it.

warm plinth
#

It has plenty of use but it's just largely unnecessary 99% of the time

#

One of those things that's giga strong but niche

mighty valley
#

yeah it's less "where is this useful" and more "where is this really gonna be the difference between winning or losing"

digital frigate
#

Got it. Thank you

grave crane

I could see spell block in some raid fights since your only tanking 50% of the time

why does the valor say 1500 season maximum? What?

did they change how valor worked or smt? Feels extremely low, no?

Seems like blood spattered right?

sharp night

it's much worse than that

the shield refreshes, doesn't stack

so if you don't time it between hits, you lose half the value instantly

lucid dew

Ohhh shit

#

That is kind of lame

vernal vale
#

well shit i hadnt seen that

sharp night
#

yeah, and it's tuned around getting full value out of the shield

lucid dew
#

Gross

sharp night
#

like, it's comparable to other trinkets IF you get 100% value out of the shield, but that's unlikely

lucid dew
#

I feel let down ha

it will basically be a tank buster button then

I was more focused on the affix than the mobs

I'm just 475, ran with a hunter 460 and a disc 465, a mm and another random, mostly helping people out. One or two DHs will make a difference and you will barely need to tank

Saying “20-30k” is an enormous range and like you said, dungeons and pull sizes matter so much
