What is the counterplay to the last pack of Temple?

#

I die through shield wall

torn jay
#

Run

main sable
#

I think I fucked up. I blew my first 1k valor on BIS shield upgrade from M+.
Yet best embellishment aside from lariat looks to be armor spikes. But I'm a weaponsmith and was oging to use one of my sparks on a longsword

mighty valley
#

i'm holding onto valor til i'm getting higher level pieces

deft hazel
#

critcake i did not have fun in azure vaults

urban portal
#

if the tankiness lets you do higher keys

#

then you can get better gear

deft hazel
#

well i wouldnt say for me.. it wasnt fun because group was dead while i was full hp xd

urban portal
#

especailly early in the tier where people cant carry you

main sable
#

True

urban portal
#

you need every bit of power you can get in m+ right now

main sable
urban portal
#

doing 10s are fine

sick sentinel

tell your team to stay far out of combat, solo engage the blazing imp, reflect when they start casting fireball

#

cos

ivory brook
#

What kind of dps should we be pulling in m+ across a dungeon? 30k? 35k?

mighty valley
#

varies a lot depending on dungeon and ilvl is also varying a lot right now

#

simply do your best

lucid dew
#

i carfted both engi goggles and bracers not sure how i feel about flame thrower

deft hazel
#

i feel like right now, i can tank a 10+, but the dps just dont live long lol

mighty valley
#

people don't know how to play the dungeons yet

lucid dew
#

Is anyone else using two tinkers?

onyx marsh
#

hey prot champions, new to the way of the prot, doing about 20-25% total dmg from m+ 7-10s atm should I be closer to the 30% mark?

slender wedge
#

which phial should we use?

mental scarab
#

@deft hazel Yea the dps are squishy as fuuuuk ๐Ÿ˜… only run a 2 vault and 6 ruby, But damn dps dies like kids

tender quartz
#

I see tons of us are running the Primal Ritual Shell Trinket on Subcreation but

#

Damage One didn't seem to proc a lot imo

rare flare
#

Whats everyone doing damage/healing wise?

@limpid pawn craft master's hammers

loud patrol

im watching a warrior doing a 18 ruby and im scared im not good enough

surreal ember
#

Ruby hurts. Whole team just melting around me.

storm estuary
#

Ruby is definitely more harshly tuned than any of the other dungeons.

radiant path
#

Anyone know when you get diminishing returns on Haste?

full venture
#

Pretty sure its 30%

radiant path
#

Thanks!

full venture
#

Donโ€™t quote me

#

In SL I remember vers being 30% dr

#

For pvp

#

But I could be wrong

radiant path
#

"Diminishing Returns for haste is definitely 30%"

ionic fern
#

@warm plinth good morning, ily.

novel temple
novel temple
#

cause like im out dpsing people in raids

#

and it makes me sad

#

also, they should've opened up lfr

ionic fern
loud patrol
#

Nice.

novel temple
#

yeah, dps were blaming on big pulls

#

but no one was interuptting tidal burst in the temple i did

#

besides me on a singular one

#

i also did like 5 more interupts tahn an enhance shaman

#

and then like 13 more than a ret pally

#

and like 12 more than a mage

warm plinth
ionic fern
#

Don't put pressure on the DPS'ers.
They are trying their best to out DPS the tanks, no time to interrupt.

loud patrol
#

lmao

pallid quiver
#

they're too busy yelling at the tank to interrupt to interrupt

#

can confirm that this happened to me earlier

#

like, listen, i can only stop so many casts with pummel, storm bolt, int shout, shockwave, shield charge...

#

i like, need some amount of support

ionic fern
#

And then people go.."Ugh..why do you have Honed Reflexes in your m+ talents??"
This..this is why..cause i've pugged too many times and that 1s off interrupt is big.

pallid quiver
#

the 1s would not have helped me, personally

ionic fern
#

It helped me

#

Enough

pallid quiver
#

yeah i don't blame you for that

ionic fern
#

Using Pummel on CD.

#

God damn DPS'ers.

pallid quiver
#

but it my specific scenario, it would not have helped

mighty valley
#

my gang actually focuses on interrupts and surviving over perfect dps in these early keys, it's incredible

pallid quiver
#

most of the people i know don't even know base mechanics

#

but they do know how to press their defensives, so that's a plus

#

better than about 70% of the DPS playerbase currently

solar blade
#

its funny because now we nozice that dps have their kicks and cc on alt gr numpad 5

#

hence why its so difficult to kick

pallid quiver
#

Mine's on Shift-1, hence why Matta gets mad at me

ionic fern
#

Oo, hey, mine is also shift+1

#

That being said..Ruby Life pools was horrendous.

#

Compared to other keys.

pallid quiver
#

We can both get yelled at by Matta, then! ๐Ÿ™‚

ionic fern
#

Who?

pallid quiver
#

Mattacate, man who made the banner tutorial vid during S4 SL

ionic fern
#

I was AFK most of SL.

pallid quiver
#

100% understandable

ionic fern
#

But, back to Ruby..holy crap.

pallid quiver
#

Oh yeah, Ruby blasts

ionic fern
#

The dragons..the interrupts..the casters.

warm plinth
#

I have heard that Ruby is quite spicy

ionic fern
#

What the hell.

pallid quiver
#

It's like, pretty fine until the area before second boss

warm plinth
#

Is Ruby the one that has the boss that spawns the fire elementals

ionic fern
#

We tried it in a +10..had 41 deaths..still timed tho. xeos

pallid quiver
#

Yeah

full venture
#

Both dungeons where I was asked to pull more mobs (+9) dps would die instantly

#

Shit is annoying

ionic fern
pallid quiver
#

You need to control the flame dancers or DPS just blow up

warm plinth
#

That's my job yep

pallid quiver
#

and if you have enough small elemental friends, you also actually feel it

warm plinth
#

Outlaw rogue life

pallid quiver
#

like, i thought those tiny elementals would be like, fluff enemies

#

but that stacking dot they have kinda hurts

ionic fern
#

They stack a dot?

#

Smh.

#

I'll check logs after work.

warm plinth
#

Mwahi be like that mob has mechanics?! Blasphemy!

ionic fern
#

It diddn't help that our healer in ruby discovered that he was running red gear for like half the dungeon but his UI bugged and diddn't show gear as broken.

pallid quiver
#

Yeah, the small elementals you see wandering around chuck like an ignite thing at you

ionic fern
#

Was wondering why he died to every damage.

#

๐Ÿ˜‚

ionic fern
oblique garnet
#

The small ones arent particularly dangerous

#

The destroyer combined with Cinderweavers tho danderson

pallid quiver
#

they're honestly not, they just hurt more than i expecte-

#

oh yeah that suuuuuuuucks

#

and it's the worst if someone decides to say hi to a dragon

ionic fern
#

HOW DO I NOT PULL DRAGONS?

#

WE HAD 2 yesterday

warm plinth
#

Can't keep up. Am I friends with the dragons or enemies with the dragons smh

woeful cypress
#

are you guys crafting weapon and neck?

pallid quiver
#

just think back to your history classes and you'll get it

ionic fern
#

The second big offender for me was Nokhud's thrash before the last boss.
EVERYTHING needs to be interrupted

#

FeaR? Gotta interrupt.
2x stuns - gotta interrupt
AoE damage - gotta interrupt

#

Wtf

pallid quiver
#

I've been meaning to check the fastest route to hit none of that trash

#

it's not worth it when there's so much other trash you can slap

warm plinth
#

I've only done 3 keys so far, with the highest being a 5

#

Hopefully get to do real shit this weekend

oblique garnet
#

without any specific classes

ionic fern
#

I just W'ed.

#

Diddn't bother to chekc routes/%

oblique garnet
#

yeah thats a mistake

pallid quiver
#

give me the insight, late

compact jackal
#

Well, I just did a pull on heroic Terros.

bleak stump
#

im trying to decide between dh/war tank can anyone tell me some bonuses prot has

compact jackal
#

You'll never guess where I was on DPS

ionic fern
#

Just letting my anger go right now by writing on Discord.

warm plinth
#

Good, that way you won't cap rage

oblique garnet
bleak stump
#

my war/dh are around the same ilvl and my dh is doing way more damage currently

compact jackal
#

Prot is supposed to compete for top DPS in a raid on single target, right?

oblique garnet
#

Repeat till you are on the last 2 mobs before the boss

ionic fern
#

Where did you make up for the trash %?
Cause the trash near the duo boss felt also pretty horrid.

bleak stump
#

im doing around 50-70k on my burst as a DH only around 40 as prot

ionic fern
warm plinth
#

40k burst is uh

#

not good

bleak stump
#

they are only 330 ilvl lol

compact jackal
#

I'm doing like uh

#

90-100k prot burst I think?

ionic fern
#

I think the highest i did was near 200k..but it was a big pack.

compact jackal
#

I know I do like 60-80k sustained AoE

bleak stump
#

can someone send me a guide then lol

compact jackal
#

Remember your ABCs

ionic fern
#

Jeah, we're gonna get pummeled with DPS nerfs.
And then once we actually start doing serious content and go into defensive stance our DPS is trash cause it got balanced around Battle Stance.

compact jackal

ionic fern
pallid quiver
#

Listen to Mwahi on IcyVeins, then press buttons fast

#

also, yeah that

bleak stump
#

lol yeah i was in defensive stance

pallid quiver
#

Don't be in Defensive Stance unless you can't help it

#

It's like an 11% damage difference or something after accounting for the crit

bleak stump
#

can someone link me a talent build

compact jackal
#

IV or WoWhead tbh

pallid quiver
#

Nome's got multiple builds for ya in there, too

bleak stump
#

so once i learn it and gear and everything prot would be better than veng?

pallid quiver
#

in damage? i unno, maybe

#

i don't really track the other tanks that well

ionic fern
bleak stump
#

just in general my dh im doing way more damage on but i have a lot more fun on the warrior lol

#

but i clearly suck with it lol

ionic fern
#

Defensively prot is easy to play.
Offensively you need to put some thought / effort / practice into it.

bleak stump
#

guess im kinda just asking if its worth it to put in the time and work to learn it

#

but thanks for all your feedback everyone that responded

pallid quiver

but yeah that pack is not something i want to mess with

limber prism
#

Is there any good general opinion on what I should spend my Sparks on?

cinder storm
#

From what I can say, shield if you need a higher shield or weapon, most people are going after the neck across all class discords

#

Honestly I think it's safer to wait a bit more, who knows if neck will get nerfed

uneven robin

so

cinder storm
# noble lynx Lust it

I thought about that but the thing is, they rage too fast or the big guy spawns adds and if I kite then one dps will probably run like a headless chicken to the other side of the room

uneven robin

ignore pain should be first right

#

by a huge margin

novel temple
#

Yeah

cinder storm
#

Yes lol

uneven robin
#

aight. was tanking with another prot that was barely poping it

cinder storm

Probably was wasting rage

uneven robin

i mean his IP was at 240k

mine was at 5 million

Lol what

#

That dude popped like 4-6 ignore pains the entire time then

cinder storm

By mistake

novel temple

pallid quiver

they had to spend their rage on IV, don't you see?

uneven robin

idk, that was kinda frustrating to see tbh

loud patrol

imma gonna brag guys

The trinket?

vivid orchid
storm merlin
#

DPS >>> heal >>>>>> tanks for general gearing

novel temple
#

Or just all the other gear?

ionic fern
#

All the gear.

#

That drops

#

Is prioritised for the DPS'ers.

#

Once they don't want any..then healers and tanks.

novel temple
#

Even a trinket that clearly is for tanks?

vivid orchid
#

that thing does sick dps

novel temple
#

It does

cinder storm
#

If it dropped for you it's ok to keep it

ionic fern
#

Oh, no, not tank trinkets.

loud patrol
#

well the whole raid sort of feels like a dps check some way or another

vivid orchid
#

but at least not for raiding so you can keep it ๐Ÿ˜›

novel temple

Still does pretty decent single target

vivid orchid
#

aye

I'm getting almost 1 shot by the Evoker "FLY THROUGH EVERYTHING" ability.

Super fun.

That's why it's called Deep Breath

But no one else seemed to have that issue in my group.

unreal marlin
#

wdo we have new data for helm and SPikes etc. what is the best for M+ now?

warm plinth
#

Thunderlord is fine. FbV is fine. BSV is pointless.

severe steeple
#

this fbv vs bv is getting too pepega

#

how much can be said for sucha minor defensive talent

modern bloom
#

how about Lariat after nerf? still number one embellishment?

warm plinth
#

Probably isn't aware of BSV's major failing is all

long stone
tropic sundial
#

Someone was trying to sell the recipe in trade chat for 7M yesterday on my server lol

prisma crane
#

gonna say this though, BSV is dope AF in PvP

warm plinth
#

I mean idk why he would use it if he did

#

There's 0 use in proccing it when you're full HP with all your CDs available

prisma crane
#

i dont think a warrior like Pika isnt aware of how that talent works

#

that said, even Nerf isnt using it

warm plinth
#

It's not about knowing how the talent works. It's about knowing that it's bugged.

ionic fern
#

Literally over-night.

warm plinth
#

Wouldn't be surprised if he didn't know that since no one recommends even taking it

prisma crane
#

what's the current bug with BSV?

warm plinth
#

It procs based on premitigation damage

#

Which means it can literally proc when you're full HP when your HP does not move

prisma crane
#

sounds almost like a good bug if you can purposefully plan it lol

warm plinth
#

Random question, does anyone have the quaking WA that displays as a faint ring in the center of your screen and makes the sound when you're overlapping someone?

jagged pier
#

what key lvl is he doing?

#

if hes pushing for 20

warm plinth
#

There's like 8 billion quaking WAs on wago so I can't find it

ionic fern
#

Probably..17-18?

jagged pier
#

makes a lot of sense

ionic fern
#

Not sure tho.

jagged pier
#

top key in the world last night was 18

#

so if hes in that lvl

#

BSV is fine

#

like he would have had 2 raid days doesnt mean hes got any gear

sick sentinel
#

Yes he's in that level

jagged pier
#

this is the difference between knowing why and when to use it

ionic fern
jagged pier
#

and not

ionic fern
#

He's already 394.

jagged pier
#

im 390

ionic fern
#

I'm 379.

warm plinth
#

I mean under normal circumstances, sure. I just don't see how it would be particularly useful in its bugged state.

jagged pier
ionic fern
#

Did you get gear from raid? o.o

sick sentinel
#

Nerf: "Taking the season off for the baby."

Also nerf: First 19 of the season.

yer some

ionic fern

๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

No lootcouncil?

jagged pier
#

but i wont get any from HC or mythic cause dps first

warm plinth
jagged pier

so i grabbed all the none tier pieces which was an ilvl increase

warm plinth
ionic fern
#

๐Ÿ˜ฆ

jagged pier
#

and im only one in raid that uses strength 1 handers

ionic fern
#

Lucky.
We had NM lootcouncil already and all went to DPS'ers.

jagged pier
#

and 2 tank trinkets dropped

jagged pier
#

still need a laritat maker on my server

#

damn bugged recipe

ionic fern
#

I think we got one. ๐Ÿ‘€

#

At least i saw someone promoting in trade chat..

wary heath
#

got these bad boys....also I didn't even read the loot and won a 2H by accident, not sure why i was allowed to roll on it. i can't be trusted

ionic fern
jagged pier
#

thats a tier piece slot

wary heath
#

ill just get the other 4 critcake

jagged pier
#

but u want helm for embelishment

#

๐Ÿค”

ionic fern
#

Maybe he wants something else for embelishment.

wary heath
ionic fern
#

I want tier..but i won't get tier.
Pretty sure they are using some excel sheet to see the DPS increase for tier..and tanks aren't there.

jagged pier
#

they arent

#

our teir set is doggo remeber dropping it in execute is a dps increase

ionic fern
#

Jeah, but in m+ it's still a increase.

jagged pier
#

cause they didnt add execute to it

ionic fern
#

Like overall.

blazing condor
#

will we still get tier from vault in m+?

#

or we gotta catalyst something

wary heath
#

can the vault drop raid tier ?

ionic fern
#

๐Ÿคท

gilded zodiac

no

wary heath
jagged pier
#

i believe it still can would be dumb for them not to do that

pliant whale
#

Is BV worth? Or is it overcapping IP?

jagged pier

its bugged

#

and u overcapp IP all the tiem

#

cause u drop rage into IP

ionic fern
jagged pier
#

no

ionic fern
#

Also too lazy and using BrV?

#

๐Ÿ˜‚

jagged pier

ye

#

but i mean i do drop IP somtimes

#

so it does do a little

ionic fern
#

Juh.

calm sapphire

#

As someone who enjoys pushing keys (mostly with pugs), would it be unreasonable to reroll from vdh to pwar? I can't make up my mind.

calm sapphire
#

M+ and PvP vault can drop tier

ionic fern
#

Play what you enjoy.

jagged pier
#

thats down to what class u enjoy more

#

VDH is giga strong

obsidian path
#

Balance comes and goes, play what you like in the first place

ionic fern
#

The most "success" i've had from a "let me save pugs" PoV is probably paladin.

wary heath
#

VDH and PWAR great for pugging keys

jagged pier
#

your gunna have just issues pugging because dungeon are a coordination
nightmare

jagged pier
#

they said they wanted to make it more like a thing to push for ppl that enjoy it

#

but they probably gunna have to nerf alot

ionic fern
#

Jeah..a ton.

wary heath
#

hydrolance hydrolance hydrolance hydrolance

jagged pier
#

like they killed keys in bfa as they added fort and tyran to keys lower than 10 and that killed the casual keys because ppl couldnt cope with the extra damage

grim mural
#

Yeah, I guess you're right. Pugging will be hell either way :D

wary heath
#

it always is, but it's part of the experience

tender quartz
#

Do I understand correct

ionic fern
#

Yes.

tender quartz
#

Running +11 and higher gives you after 10 the

#

lmfao

#

The 405 Itemthingie

#

But how long does the Mythic take from Mythic Bosses, do we know?

ionic fern
wary heath
#

i understand some of these words, but not in the order they are in

tender quartz
#

Ney I meant the thingie where you can craft a 418 out of it

ionic fern
#

According to this, +12 gives you 405 from great vault.

wary heath
#

i think he's talking about farming primal infusions

ionic fern
#

Oo

tender quartz
#

The 2 crafting reagents we can add, my apologies

latent hedge
#

does that only drop in vault or can you get end of dungeon too?

jagged pier
#

the primal infusions i believe they require sparks for most of the gear u can upgrade with it

#

so its kinda

#

held back by that

tender quartz
#

Yea that's the 405 Item Thingie

#

And I was wondering about the Mythic Equivalent

wary heath
#

yes, that can drop in M_

tender quartz
#

If we already know how many Bosskills it'd take

warm plinth
ionic fern
#

I think it's like this:
Primal Infusion = above +15
Primal Focus (combine 10 to convert to Primal Infusion) = 10-15 level

jagged pier
#

it take 10 runs

tender quartz
#

Primal Infusions dropped 100% for +11 for me btw

#

11 and higher*

ionic fern
#

Sure it wasn't Focus?

#

๐Ÿ‘€

warm plinth
#

They're both focus

tender quartz
#

Uh let me check sorry

warm plinth
#

The 405 one is primal focus

jagged pier
#

100% focus

wary heath
#

what do you mean 100%

warm plinth
#

The higher one is concentrated primal focus

#

Primal infusion is just what they're used for

tender quartz
#

But 10 Mythic Bosskills seem alright

warm plinth
tender quartz
#

Oh

#

OH

#

So +11 gives 405 and +15 higher gives the 418 upgrade?

warm plinth
#

Yeah

tender quartz
#

I pulled an allnight I apologize

#

Sorry for the confusion

#

So that's 10 x M15 for a 418 Crafted Item if anyone has the skill for it, correct?

warm plinth
#

+11-15 drops Primal Focus which is for Primal Infusion. +16 and up drops Concentrated Primal Focus which is for Concentrated Primal Infusion.

#

It'd be 16, but yeah I assume it's 1 per dungeon

#

Don't forget you'd need 150 primal chaos too and that's just to make the infusion, not counting what you need for the item itself.

tender quartz
#

Did we need the Spark itself too? I kinda forgot

#

Or could we just add Primal and get it to 405/418

#

Currently not logged in to check

#

Rephrase: Would a spark be required for all items to upgrade them that high

steep wraith
#

Need the spark, but can recraft the 405 later

tender quartz
#

Gotcha

#

Idk should I dump my valor into the Haste Vers Shield although I got a crafted 392 one? I could upgrade the Lariat later I guess...

steep wraith
#

You'll get more sparks soon

tender quartz
#

I guess it would be a neat over-the counter thingie until I can upgrade higher eh?

#

This would be current gear, and Sparks are in Lariat and Shield, but I dropped the Haste / Vers on 389 and it costs only 250per and we're Tanks after all

#

Just dunno if the Valor would be "wasted" or "worth" it

steep wraith
#

Valor only goes to 415, spark can (with the right crafter) go to 418, and +20 vault is 421

mortal brook
#

I'm not spending any valor until 2400 personally, itll be on 405 gear

tender quartz
#

Yea I did not miss the cap at all ._.

steep wraith
#

Being as vault can be rng, I'm going to craft weapon/shield to ensure it's 418 at some point without wasting valor

tender quartz
#

Would I feel a 12+ iLvl higher shield in M+? :/

mortal brook
#

Put your first infusion into the shield to make it 405

steep wraith
#

and if I get lucky with the vault, I've wasted a spark = /

tender quartz
#

Yea fair enough Steve that's better

steep wraith
#

But at least I had a decent weapon/shield

#

after that, probably going to spark bracer/helm from engi, as they can single stat haste with their crafts

is there a way to "farm" the shell trinket <.<?

Hi guys ive been very unlucky with 1h weapon for Prot. I am considering crafting one since you can upgrade it further. Is this a good idea ?

If yes its a good idea what would be the best one for us ?

Uhm...

#

This thing. Apparently 9% Uptime during M+?

#

Saw no other listed buff that associated with it.

warm plinth
#

well it's a shield so

#

it's gonna go away when it's consumed

severe steeple
#

its a 2 ppm proc WHILE taking dmg

warm plinth
#

It would be 20% if the shield lasted the full duration

severe steeple
#

iirc

warm plinth
#

wowhead states that it's 1ppm

do i think of the other scale? same icon?

And i don't count them even close to high.

wet jungle
#

Wow ok lol

ionic fern
#

If you're really-really new to dungeons then you can probably find a lot of videos on youtube explaining mechanics and things.

blazing condor

yeah its very relative but historically you can hold W without any complicated strats or routes up to like 20s

#

gonna be hard of course to do that week one but

when you catch up on gear

I don't actively swap between them. I've mostly defaulted to Honed and Battering Ram for m+.
TL will probably be once i feel like i need more DS up-time.
Honed is more of a "use this point on w/e".

I will swap from ITF to HR once i need more block up-time.

No idea if it's a place where i'll get my answer but tonight, we are going back to the raid and are now on Dathea (normal). Since on Normal, both adds spawn on platform, do you have one tank on boss and the other tank on the two adds while you kill them one at a time?

Correct, kill adds one at a time, close to a edge so the whole raid doesn't fly off

and as Warrior, i can insta charge on boss knockback i'm guessing?

no; it has to be dispelled
