60k? did u not use cds?

#

17aa i finished 140k on tree boss today (with the pot tho)

alpine solar
#

what is name of main stat vers gem?

steep wraith
#

Is the jeweled signet of melandrus auto attack effect worth much for us?

merry umbra
#

beside being bis stats, yes

#

run it with a haste/versa ring

steep wraith
#

got a choice in vault between that and bracers of same ilvl, but bracers are crit/mast, so was leaning on ring and getting some other bracers instead

merry umbra
#

you can always get bracers, but

#

one ring to rule them all

#

how are we doing bois, we still gud

slim dove
#

very gud

#

too gud probably

#

Guys what Embellisment we use for ring craft?

#

We're still likely to get nerfed, tbh

#

@merry umbra idk bro I’m 2100 io ofc I hit cooldowns

#

I’m still new to prot total scrub I know 😦

solar sandal
#

can you hit buttons while using storm eater's or do we just die b/c we cant use defensives lmao

Oh, I should buy shocking disclosure for council next week.

How do we feel about engineer head with only haste stat as second crafted item?

#

Any opinions?

lets GOOOOOO

wary heath
#

the tree boss still feels impossible

#

just failed twice, 15 and 14

#

all dps and me were over 80k

#

some 120k

merry umbra
#

just pushed through 17aa tree boss, 140k me, the rest were more

#

and failed on the mana boss

#

lol 😄

polar smelt
#

has anyone used fang adornments? is it still bugged and not proccing very often?

wary heath
#

12 aa it is for me then

south zealot
#

the tree boss isnt that hard with a decent level of coordination

#

bring a poison dispel, have everyone stack on tank the best they can and make sure they clear bleed

uneven mason
#

It's the clearing bleed which everyone derps on

wary heath
#

i think the tyrannical vaguely psuedo cancels out the nerf, so if you were struggling last week, it doesn't actually make it easier

#

next week it might feel visibily easier

#

I am pugging it so that's also some of the equation

oak echo
#

you also need to not just nuke the tree add because otherwise you'll be trying to clear while a germinate is going out

#

it doesn't have to instantly die

south zealot
#

the boss in a way is a little harder on medium key levels like 13-14

#

bc the tree will likely die at a bad time during herminate

wary heath
#

the dps just go zug zug

#

so delay killing the treant until after 2nd germinate ?

uneven mason
#

If you kill it during germ or the burst forth you won't be able to get in the circle

proud dock
#

is spell block the only talent that needs to be considered to swap for keys or are there others?

uneven mason
#

Plenty

#

Pick and choose utility based on comp

#

And your trust level of your group

#

In a pug? - take anything that can interrupt

#

Or don't because thusvfar I haven't seen a real interruptable that actually threatens the tank..... DPS on the other hand

#

Tend to get 1 shot

mighty valley
#

still worth taking the stops for non-interruptible tankbusters

#

especially since they can't be kicked

#

dark claws etc

#

i'm sometimes tempted to try and make room for the aoe fear break for nokhud since half the time my groups are mostly melee? just for more uptime on the boss fear and/or missed kick insurance for the last trash

uneven mason
#

Yeah and that arcing douchnuke from NO

mighty valley
#

but it's competing with int shout so it's tough

edgy grail
vagrant relic
#

do u guys ever use battle stance in mythic+?

blazing condor
#

Almost always

#

Question should be other way around

vagrant relic
#

really?

vernal vale
blazing condor
#

Defensive stance is more of a situational defensive cooldown

#

You use when needed

vagrant relic
#

and what do your heals say about that

blazing condor
#

Nothing cus i dont take any damage anyway

#

I just pump more dmg

vagrant relic
#

fair enough

vernal vale
#

My heals don't know how to warrior. They can't say shit as I'm not dying

blazing condor
#

With that said if you feel like you need the extra defensives then go ahead and use it

#

Obviously the higher you go the more you’d use it

vagrant relic
#

So I have to use def stance only when I'm feeling a bit dying right?

chilly brook
#

It’s like being an arms warrior in the past like 3 xpacs

#

You hop into it before damage comes out

#

Hop out after

vernal vale
vagrant relic
#

Damn I've been playing with def stance since the launch and nobody said me a single thing

#

hahah

#

thanks

dusk rain
#

very noob question. Can you enchant shield or only weapon?

chilly brook
#

Or you hop in during periods of high intake and leave as soon as it’s gone

vagrant relic
#

btw is it a good place to ask u to roast my talent tree?

blazing condor
#

Yes

chilly brook
#

If it’s not a build from the guides I’m gonna be very disappointed

vagrant relic
#

it's not

#

I don't think it is

#

any thoughts? mythic+

blazing condor
#

Not terrible but not what most people run

vernal vale
mighty valley
#

this is an extremely normal talent tree except you should really grab the strength node above Shield Charge

#

insane stats for the point investment

vagrant relic
#

but what do i sacrifice?

nimble laurel
#

Is there a haste soft cap where Heavy Repercussions is better than Into the Fray?

prisma echo
#

Ok what im doing wrong with my ruby whelp shell? Its considered A tier trinket meanwhile from SBG 11 dungeon it makes 200k overall dmg, where shitty dragon game did 1kk

mighty valley
#

personally don't find that many uses for the aoe interrupt shout

light lynx
#

Has anyone been running anything with armor spikes and have logs for it? Been trying to track down some data about how much damage it's actually doing

uneven mason
#

The last stand rage node is meh as well

light lynx
mighty valley
#

yeah it ain't what it used to be

prisma echo
chilly brook
#

No

#

Just know that the mainstat proc is big dam

#

And defense as well

#

I mean you could check the buff uptime

light lynx
#

You probably can see the uptime in details, logs might be more insightful

mighty valley
#

1% overall damage is pretty decent gravy on top of a mainstat proc

chilly brook

this looks better?

Is my stats bad why my dps I low?

And what “help” are you looking for?

My stats

#

What can I change for more dps

chilly brook

Aw dang

Haste is fine?

tropic tangle
#

bruh, maybe just read the pins first

chilly brook
#

If you’re thinking your stats are the problem for your DPS you’re not playing properly

vagrant relic
#

cuz I personally need to damage the mobs for a big to get them taunted

mighty valley
chilly brook
#

Press your buttons better

edgy grail
vagrant relic
#

but when a dps pulls mobs with something damaging it's not always easy to instantly get them on ya

#

isn't it?

edgy grail
#

What yiu do is one pull you use offensive CDs

vagrant relic
edgy grail
#

Snd the other you use something like wall and shout

ruby elbow
#

Yeah it’s fine, I have shouts and stubs

#

Stuns

edgy grail
#

There id challenging and disrupting

vagrant relic
#

oh

oak vine
#

guys, has anyone tried maxing out the Bloodborne talent? Im rly surprised its not a big dps gain

vagrant relic
#

I remembered why I took it

#

it reduces the cd of the shout

chilly brook
#

We’ve talked about this before, blood borne is a good talent

vagrant relic
#

doesn't it?

ruby elbow
#

What’s like average prot dps in 15 and higher normally?

chilly brook
#

However what you give up for it isn’t worth it

vagrant relic
#

but not worth it in your opinion guys?

edgy grail
#

Battering ram is a lot lf damsge

#

If you need bc your team sucks at int and cc

#

Then sure

vagrant relic
#

looking good now?

chilly brook
edgy grail
#

But you shouldn’t need it

ruby elbow
#

What about thunder lord ?

oak vine

raw parcel
#

The major sites have Ruby Shell as BiS trinket, people here say it's bad without elaborating. Why would wowhead/icyveins post it as bis if it's a turd?

ruby elbow
#

And even bolster for the threat thing

chilly brook
#

I’ve yet to see someone say it’s bad

vagrant relic
#

to have mass taunt faster?

ruby elbow
#

Don’t really need tough as nails if you don’t have threat issues anyway, last stand reductions cool tho

#

Yeah cause screw threat loss, we got shouts and stuns 😛

#

Jk I’m a noob don’t listen to me

raw parcel
edgy grail
#

Battering Ram is a ton of damage

#

Snd TL desyncs your shout

vagrant relic
vagrant relic
#

and tough as nails on a pack of mobs that are biting in block sounds pretty good doesn't it

edgy grail
#

ST with no WF

chilly brook
#

Interesting

edgy grail
#

Yes take tough as nails not bolster

chilly brook
vagrant relic
#

it is to me? because I already have tough as nails

#

is spell block worth it tho?

chilly brook
#

It can be

#

Depends on dungeon

edgy grail
#

depends on the content

#

yep

chilly brook
#

And situation

edgy grail
#

I take spell block and defenders aegis in TOJS

#

and spell block in RLP

vagrant relic
#

but as a universal to go talent?

edgy grail
#

No

round pendant
#

What's the best Primal Ritual Shell buff bois?

#

Mastery or more shields?

chilly brook
#

It’s like spell warding for paladin in previous xpacs

icy bane
#

Fire

chilly brook
#

Great talent

#

But only take it in specific content

edgy grail
#

spell block like spellwarding?

chilly brook
#

In terms of it’s not a universal pick

#

In past xpacs

#

Idk how it is this xpac since they can get it and BoP now

round pendant
vagrant relic
#

what about this one guys?

#

looks pretty cool innit?

chilly brook
#

Idk

#

Just run the talent build in the pins

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

vagrant relic
#

what if I want something of my own

sick sentinel
#

BB is a trap

vagrant relic
#

a bit of being unique

#

bb bad?

#

it's a nice game tho

chilly brook
#

We just talked about this

urban portal
#

spiked shield is just more damage

chilly brook
#

It’s a good talent

vagrant relic
#

where is but

chilly brook
#

It’s just not worth the talent investment for the loss

#

You lose too much to talent it

urban portal
#

sorry its called tough as nails

#

take that over bloodborne

vagrant relic
#

oh

#

so get it back

#

ok

chilly brook
ruby elbow
#

Oh 25k overall?

chilly brook
ruby elbow
#

Dang I thought I was told 50 was low, it’s not pushing it tho you can still keep decent threat my friend no worries

chilly brook
#

It’s a game after all, no one can force you to do anything

vagrant relic
#

I can try it

sick sentinel
#

got my cloak

chilly brook
#

But IMO the concept of pushing against a solved problem (where to invest talent points) just to be “unique” is weird

vagrant relic
#

where do i find it

#

this is the one?

chilly brook
vagrant relic
#

It was there

chilly brook
#

Idk the talent investment off the top of my head

edgy grail
#

That one is good only thing Id change is TL for battering ram

chilly brook
#

Just know that it would be under the “m+” section in the guides

quaint zodiac
#

A couple points differing for preference can be expected but if the goal is 'best' or 'optimal' then it will always come down to the maths

Is it a Gameplay goal to try and do as much damage as possible to keep the Ignore Pain up through the Brutal Vitality talent?

chilly brook
#

I mean

mighty valley
#

It's a gameplay goal to do as much damage as possible because damage kills enemies haha

chilly brook
#

IP isn’t a focus

dawn vault
chilly brook
#

Deal damage

lusty tiger
#

IP is a byproduct of good rotation

chilly brook
#

Use IP as needed to either 1) not cap rage and 2) smooth damage if intake is extremely high

why do my sims keep telling me to get crit/mastery gear >.>

uneven mason
#

It's a trap

inland mesa
#

yeah it keeps telling me get jade serpent boots and not court boots

#

actually on everything, any plate piece that's crit mastery sims higher than crit haste pieces wut

uneven mason
#

What's the sim

inland mesa
#

droptimizer at 20s

uneven mason
#

20s?

mighty valley
#

sims can't account for all situations and it's also raw damage, not survivability

inland mesa
#

yeah 405 gear

uneven mason
#

Oh lol I was like

You're doing 20 second windows?

there's barely any actual patchwerk encounters in the game rn

inland mesa
#

mythic terros check, seeing what gear I can get to up single target

uneven mason
#

So like my single brain wrinkle tells me that Crit mastery is probably pumpers for st

mighty valley
#

so yeah it might be right, crit/mast might be your best st damage

inland mesa
#

my haste is only at 18% so it just seemed like an odd thing to spit back

uneven mason
#

But mastery falls way behind in ae and survival

#

Well not way behind

Trinket recommendation, is the battle scared one good ?

Hi guys, i receive trinket from world boss, Static-charged scale, 50% uptime on Temple of jade and im wondering if its worth vs dragon games 392, 395 scale

inland mesa
#

dragon games is just a sim trap isn't it?

#

where are people getting 392 and 395 BSS?

sturdy sable
#

Naw it does alot of dmaahe

sturdy sable
runic merlin

inland mesa

fire turtle best turtle, unless you really need survive, but I'd drop the shell

idle inlet
#

Aight, thanks for the quick responses

sturdy sable
#

The extra str alone makes up for that 10%

if it did 90% of my damage i wouldn't suddenly think 90 cents is a lot either??

i agree it's not a good trinket but what was that analogy lol

stiff gate
#

for violent outburst, do you guys hold thunderclap and wait for a SS proc to not waste it, or do you just continue the normal prio and let it get used on whichever ability is up at the time

#

(on less than 4/6 targets that is, where its better value to SS than TClap with it)

sick sentinel
#

i have what i consider to be fairly good reputations

inland mesa
#

I've started to try to hold for SS on outbursts, feels weird, but my numbers are significantly better this week

sick sentinel
#

not the best, but im pretty happy with all that except for tuskarr

ocean bloom
inland mesa

and it's totally not just being in raid talents instead of m+ talents and not noticing....

sick sentinel
#

6 more i think and i can get a 389 helmet

uneven mason
#

But yeah don't "hold" the GCD, always be pumping

mighty valley
#

try not to burn rage for no reason when outburst is coming up so you can revenge if you need to fish for reset

#

but then you need to burn rage before actually hitting the SS to avoid overcapping

stiff gate
#

yeah i wasnt afking for the gcd, just meant spamming revenge instead and letting tclap sit off cooldown, thanks for the answers

onyx marsh
#

question gentleman and ladies, I used raidbots to compare the items. the ilvl difference between the slots is basically the same, trinket is a few more and has leech. But my question is, I have from the vault Algethar's Puzzle Box, the mastery on use trinket, which is not very useful for us. And my other slot is Skoldiir Breastplate. Trinket sims 500more dps I assume from the STR increase. But longer use I would say the chest is better correct since I will be upgrading that trinket? I will also upgrade the chest to tier in the future. Not really sure tbh the correct play. Thanks again

true

sick sentinel
#

everyone stands on tank at boss at max melee, healer heals, and then with the time for adds come team spreads like minimum so they don't get hit , everyone shifts to left or right (you all just agree on it before hand) and if done right all the adds are in such a small pile they can easily be killed by basic aoe rotations

I just picked up Last Breath of the Worldbreaker from the gold pile and activated it. How do i actually unlock it as a transmog for other shields?

Ravager is also a solid

The adds were in a radius wider than a tc could reach

#

or ravager

uneven mason
#

Yeah also don't murder the tree mid germination otherwise you'll miss the bleed clear

if you do that, you can kill the adds befor the branch comes in and that makes it easier to focus it down

For those poo pooing the Ruby Shell, are you aware that you don't get just one of the benefits, you just set a weighted preference? I have mine set to heal me (was an accident, honestly, didn't know how to tune him and it has a long cooldown), but he still gives secondary buffs and damage, just more rarely, and the amount of healing is not trivial.

or is it always haste/vers

For damage windows, is the only ability that will line up with avatar (aside from opener where you hit everything), thunderous roar?

pallid quiver
twilit jungle
#

ravager lines up as well

pallid quiver

Due to Anger Management, it's active often

prisma crane

imo vers is probably better at that point though

twilit jungle

that makes sense

@pallid quiver ok. I’m trying to better time my damage abilities. Do you ever hold off using something to time it with avatar?

Lol. I like it

If you'd get better damage on an upcoming pull, just add that pull to your current one, ezpz

frozen rose
#

So aside from like…super opportune damage windows like lust, always just hit everything off cd? @pallid quiver

zealous grove
#

what gems do i put in my lariat?

pallid quiver
#

If you absolutely can't for whatever reason and have to take them separately and you'd get minimal use out of the damage cd, that's the only time to hold. Otherwise send

pallid quiver
frozen rose
#

I’m speaking of raid scenarios

pallid quiver
#

Lust lasts a ehile and your cds either don't really benefit much from lust's haste themselves (shield charge) or have enough uptime for it to not matter so much (avatar)

#

And worst of all, holding things like Avatar costs you extra uses due to wasting anger management

frozen rose
#

@pallid quiver ok thank you. Full sending then at all times

Yeah, barring anything like "these adds need to be murdered instantly" in a raid encounter or something, always send

even did it with guildgroup that are 2.2k io score

best u can do is stay alive, do damage and make sure small adds spawn close to the boss by making the group run with you during germinate

#

so they die faster

edgy grail
#

Maybe a bit harder than other bosses sure

#

You want to CD on pull

#

So you have them for the 2nd add phase

Drag the boss around the first so you can kill as many adds as possible before they activate

Frankly people put way too much thought and effort into what amounts to a very small part of your DPS. You should craft things based on what will serve you best. If you have a low ilevel weapon, make a weapon. If you have a low ilevel shield, make a shield. If you're good on both, make lariat.
