missing enchants?
no change
still have the old gear?
thats weird
Hi. Is there a new up-to-date Blockable/Reflectable Spells Sheet ?
in pins
does anyone have the spell ID for vanguard's determination buff?
Compare items to items
Show screenshots of the items side by side. Show before and after screenshots when swapping. I have a hard time believing an "upgrade" will cause loss of HP.
nvm got it
i mean it might be a bug with the gearr or a ui bug
but no i havent seen anything of the sort
More likely he just fucked something up lol
faction swapped to alliance now i cant find a single person to recraft my lariat to 405
trade chat literally dead
what do

same talents
Shows lower ilvl in the one with lower hp?
no
higher ilvl has lower hp
i got the same shield at 402
but that shield gives me lower hp
What items are you swapping
why is one 130 rage and the other 100 rage
This
i didnt change talents
Something else is changing that you aren't showing or aware of
Are you saying that when you swap in the higher ilvl shield and NOTHING else, your HP goes down?
yeah but it looks like my rage is also changing
almost like its not counting 500 stam
like im doing nothing other than changing out the shield
puyt higher shield on and relog
yeah
thats busted lol
Overwhelming Rage talent is activating somehow
you're also dropping 3% haste, but not gaining any other secondaries
oh wait, you get 1% crit
WAIt
2 on terros, I don't think you reset stacks if you swap on 1
do you have pvp gear, wm on and somehow activated pvp combat causing your gear to goto pvp ilvl
aight no but fr how do i get my lariat recrafted if my battlegroup is dead for the faction i just swapped to
Heey, im out of the warrior loop, and need to gear one for next week, is worth crafting the lariat and the helmet?
Shield
Don't craft tier slots
and healer trinket
cant you send private work orders to the opposite faction?
Weapon/shield probably more noticeable
my only drop until now is a 402 weapon
maybe lariat and shield? or the lariat is not worth
You can send work orders to opposite faction, just need to find a guy there
Okay, so lariat and shield. That sounds solid. I was just about to ask this question.
Yeah okay, probably not weapon then unless you can do 418
And I'd probably send shield 418 first
oh my god you can
you just cant whisper them directly
Yeah I have a horde alt to find horde crafters
its absurd we dont just have full cross faction everything at this point
guys how do you handle with temple of jade serpent 3rd boss? (liu flameheart). healing absorb hits hard
Cds and cds from heal
You survive or die that's about it
Time dilation is strong
Is there any pins/should there be any pins on recommended talents for m+
We either need cross faction trade, or be able to select quality on public orders
Yes there are pins
No
The quality on public order is so scuffed
Idk why you can’t select it
Makes them kinda obsolete
thats kinda alot of work for pins - thats more an indepth guide
You can't guarantee a 5 quality maybe that's why
Then no one can fulfill it, that’s alright
yet* ^^
But if I would want a craft and I get a tier 1 lariat for example, it would be the biggest scam
Talent double wall and spell block. Use CDs for each hit. You have 2x wall, spell block, LS and can/should use SR together with both spell block and LS as they are not proper defensives on that hit.
Worst case use rally for yourself as well after all CDs are done together with SR.
hopped on a horde alt and got 6 messages within 10 seconds of posting in trade
stupid
alliance feels like a dead realm for me in comparison.
Also helps to IV or health pot after the hit
Depends heavily on your realm
What realm are you on Varugh?
mal'ganis (im leaving soon, same battlegroup as oce is cursed)
Stormrage I was able to get crafter pretty quickly as alliance
Is prot war getting nerfs after RWF?
Maybe? Nobody can know for sure
wouldnt be suprised if there are
It would make sense in terms of timing
What would they even nerf? Why not buff other tanks
Literally the largest Alliance server in NA so no shit lol
Our st DPS
😴
I didnt look at the stats lmao but yeah makes sense
People get more butthurt over warriors when they do well over any other class
Maybe
Like bdk can be immortal and top DPS and people are like "well duh, they're a hero class"
If they buffed another tank- I’d want to try a tank alt
as they said in there statement 'having strong tanks is unfun for other players' or somthing alone those lines so buffing the other tanks is very unlikely. besides that teh other tanks are just as strong as us defenisvly pretty much theres not much leyway but we stronger. and in terms of what they could nerf. could be a talent rework nerf some talents like sheild spec or moves things around
and also nerf our damage
👍
"strong tanks ruins my fun"
That would be depressing
Echo might kill today
Ok enjoy waiting 3 hours for tanks for your m+ because no one wants to play one
Lol I’d rather them die like the floor pov shmuck melee dps they always wanted to be
i explained it yesterday its a weird situations they made us stronger against physical damage then made more things do physical damage
🤷
Toxicity is what make ppl not play tanks not nerfs
Tru
Both
No, if I feel like I'm 100% reliant on a healer to perform my role it ruins the feeling of being a tank
How much value is leech in ilvl?
None
how are you guys tanking the last boss of azure vault
Toxicity I literally just ignore the turd and move on
it gets me down to 20% with big hit from last boss on a 17
Until he dies?
Use cooldowns?
I do
Use SR on his tank hit
does it through a cd
spell reflect does??
Yes
Yeah
jesus crist
Literally since beta
thanks for the tip
Also slaps
If u don't wanna depend on healer play dh or dk
You can wall every hit where SR is on CD
Other than that tanks will depend at a point on their healer
insane, never knew
That's not how tanks work
this will be big for pushing above 17
This guy making me depressed
Is this our tank future?
Healer dependency
You'll be shocked that the tanks are all really close for external healing
You are dependent on your healer now if you do hard enough content 🤷♂️
This
He's dead easy once you get used to the idea that you have to not move for 4s to drop stacks.
WHAT

I can easily do everything easily
it was just the tankbuster that was screwing me
but spell reflect is a cheat
so it will be a breeze
Assuming I'm thinking often right boss. The crystal dragon, right?
ye
Except monks
aint no way your not trolling me rn
Either don't move, or move big. I use Heroic Leap and Charge a bunch on that boss.
I've only done it on like a 14 or something mind
Yeah I can imagine
Save heroic leap and stand still as much as possible
One guy asked abt tank hit other guy responds abt movement ref slow debuff 🤷♂️
You shouldn’t need a dispel as a warrior tbh. Move, stand still move. Heroic leap as an emergency if needed. Should be all you need.
Charge at crystals. If you really still have problems, spec intervene
Hi guys, any one know what the best shield to craft is? the vers proc one or the other one 🙂 ?
play gnome lol
Whichever has highest ilvl
then are the same ilvl
Is the Vers proc an embellishment?
its a "pre" embellish yes
vers proc counts as embellish yeah, craft the primal molten
the "other" one you can chouse your embellish
You can't choose the stats on the proc sheild and it doesn't have haste on it
ah cool thx
Vorpal makes a solid point about Haste
and the best embelish is the spike thingy right?
All of the Embellishments are pretty much as good as each other
should we have haste vers in all piece of gear?
Optional
or theres a breakpoint to start invest in other stats?
is there a spot you guys feel you have too much haste
Ilvl >> haste > crit >= vers
or like you can chill on haste
Priority order is Tier > iLvl > Haste
Never chill in haste unless it’s for mainstat
Itf is ok for some content
But guarantees not 100% block uptime
From what I’ve read
Been looking at talent builds from a bunch of tanks and guides and not many are consitent. anyone have a good option for raiding and M+. I feel like rage generation is kinda slow somtimes
im not doing high enough keys to warrant repercussions
When?
Sure you are
Actually technically Tier > Strength > Haste, 'cos it's sometimes better to lower ilvl on jewelry to get Haste
lol i truly am not
Ok
Crit is not >= vers it’s just =
It’s just equal
That off?
Into The Fray doesn't count towards the level at which diminishing returns kicks in anyway
Well it’s greater for some things no?
On some fights i feel like my rotation isnt keeping ignore pain up all the time
Like parrying dark claw
Says who? Not the pins for example.
Ok sorry
I've got like 30% crit, it makes bad DPS players cry
No but it’s equal to 30% vers
It’s all very much in ‘who cares’ territory though for the 2nd secondary stat.
I care about parrying dark claw tbh
And if you don’t it gains you nothing
It gains me crit chance
Nothing defensive
Mobs die faster
Since you talked abt parrying stuff
It’s a free get out of damage chance
Vers also gives damage and Dr
Ye
Just different
Versa is probably a better stat in Raid, but Crit is just fun in M+
Does brutal vitality basically mean unless my active ignore pain absorb hits 0, I don't have to renew it ever?
When they fix the bug yes
It's bugged
When they fix the bug 
Depends on the content you do.
Yea blizz sucks
Whats the bug?
Pins
If you cap IP then Brutal Vitality stops working until IP totally falls off, IIRC
Well, assuming I deal damage before the timer runs out, it should never run out, right? I guess I'm just asking if it the timer on ignore pain renews when my damage done adds to the absorb
Ah, I see. And people are assuming this wont be fixed by blizz? since someone mentioned tier fixing it I mean
Would u say this is better than 411 haste/vers
Where did those drop?
You lose strength armor stamina and secondary stats to get like an extra 2 percent healing on a tclap
It's bad
So bascially i swap those if i have higher ilvl?
Ilvl >all
Even if u have socket? socket value should rank high no?
Sim I guess
That’s bugged since beta
So the hope is low
Not on armor slots
gotcha
Every tertiary roll is a trade off of main stat for blank
Defensively speaking, rarely worth it
Offensively speaking
Sim it
If they fix it it'll be viewed as a buff to warriors and the feelycrafts crowd are already up in arms that they can see our mitigation epeen in display
Gearing warrior is the simplest thing in the universe
stupid question, but, i find things come off cooldown so fast, that i don't have time to Revenge (since it invokes GCD) to dump rage in order to hit shield slam or TC... so i just IP to dump so i can hit SS/TC. is that okay? or should I just revenge to dump and ignore the fact that SS/TC will sit off cd for a second?
if they can do all of mythic raid with ~402 ilvl
i do very much believe that "defensive" gearing for raid is absolutely worthless
not like i ever believed that defensive gearing for raid is much of a thing to begin with
Ss and tc always
Thanks Ikarikaze; so just IP so i can hit SS/TC, and only revenge to dump IP if those badboys are on CD.
beauty, so I'm doing this right. thanks!
Yeah press IP to avoid capping
Well no hang onnvm I can't read
My thinking was more that Crit is less useful as a damage component of a whole raid
Ss hits so hard that it beats revenge under 5 targets anyway
Crit and verse will avg out to be equal offensively
Because of dr
i mean
just look at the talent tree
we have like 5 talents that benefit off of crit
We have alot of crot interact now
I was getting called out because pins don’t say that
I mean, in M+ with nearly 30% crit I make bad DPS cry
No one reads that shit anyways who cares
i made a compromise when i made that stat prio for pins
@mellow quartz
Yea right
Anyone know where to put GCD on a WA so i see the gcd over a spell? I took an UI but it doesn't show the GCD on revenge, I wanna see it
the more crit you have the less you need def stance cuz you reduce the physical portion of dmg intake
is joke
What is ‘better’? Depends on your priority and goals.
It's a party parry
I said >=
and therefor your capped mitigation like IP and Indom do more work for the dangerous parts
The more crit you have the less you need def stance because you kill everything faster
It you also did not know why
I am a strong believer in the "dead is the best form of crowd control" school of thought
I can come up with like wild strikes off memory.
wild strikes is the big one yes
then you have execute crit dmg, shield charge crit dmg, shield slam crit dmg
no thats only arms
Game sucks
I didnt know we were counting crit damage talents smh
That's cheating because I forgot
Sadly. If we had that it would be amazing

Still prefer vers myself but as I said earlier it’s all nitpicking.
ye it doesnt matter much
ok thanks for the tip, that last boss did nothing after I spell reflected his stuff
Verse more like werse lmao
Poggies
Just wanna replace my 379 weapon already and will take all secondaries.
Versa ain't bad. At least it's not Mastery.
What lvl does rf drop?
i bought the 385 primal storms weapon yesterday

ive done like 30 keys that can drop weapon but nah man
I got my 402 twice strike last week
here have this ring
What slot has the fire damage embellishment
belt
belt
No
I forgot to swap to fury loot spec for COS the first 5 runs
Swapped and got trinket 2nd run after
Windscar Whetstone huge for us?
Yes
very
Was like 9% of my dam in a key lol
Oh damn
Helps its tyrannical
Wind scar is flat damage no matter what.
actually it does increase per target up to 5
funnily enough
but old tooltip be old
Not when I tested it in beta
Fury loot spec?
yes
i've done 2 baby keys this week
a 4 academy, and a 5 vaults
on 5 targets
Does whetstone not drop as prot?
O I c
So I have a question if I have 3 trinkets, the heroic one off eranog, whetstone and the super rare one off council
Which 2 do I use
whetstone + vengeful thingy
Not at my computer but isn’t 360k the norm for ST as well?
no ill show when CD is back up
@strong forum does the super rare one take prio of I have other people in raid with one?
specifically in your group*
it doesnt work raid wide
Well I could easily have a group swapped around me but does it take prio at that point nomen?
Must have changed it to be even better then (or worse) as I tested it on 4 dummies and tank dummy separately on beta and it did the same total dam.
If other people in my group have the trinket is that one better to prio over 1 of the other ones
ye i also thought that up until a few days ago
time to lvl this war
Wonder if they lowered the ST though
nah proc is the same
It was abt 360k on beta
Hmm
gonna aim to make nom and mawhi proud
Nah the 4 dummies in BFA horde land and the tank dummy
Lol til
that plays a role
Yes vendor one
Makes sense
yeah alot of testing on beta went out the window for some RWF guilds
cuz they did their testings on the wrong dummy
Nice buff then to that trinket that was already great.

So for prot In normal and maybe heroic raid can I sit in battle stance for a lot of the fights? Feel like I o ly need def stance for fights like terroa
how do you live the frontal on valor boss
you sit in b-stance until you feel like you cant anymore
I feel like In mythic plus I can also do it
if you need to sit Dstance in normal terros either healers are AFK or something is up with your SB uptime ngl
i rarely ever go into d-stance in m+
Although I've only done like +13 so far
ever
It doesn’t hurt?
which frontal
literally takes me to 3%
U got method to keep u up
Heimdal?
eyir sheild of light prolyl
why is this good for m+? i thought the shockwave one i badge for tyrannical
@silk cliff that was mostly meant for heroic
sir i also "pugged" with a diff top 20 guild
hyrja frontal
hyrja frontal is rotate CDs
ehh you could but first rotation of debuffs is Shield wall
Ahah I’m just being jealous
SR and wall
Is block value only determined by the stat on your shield?
Yea
eww
What can you shield block this week?
There is a gem that gives shield block value %
Spel block
A whole 1%
If my block value is 8k, then I mitigate 8k damage or 16k with block crit?
Same as other weeks
Ooh
its not good at all
Anyone know what nerf they're talking about on scripe stream? 🤔
@mellow quartz what in particular? I'm not as knowledgeable so idk
Spreadsheet in pins
@strong forum how good is mastery really defensively.
Is it not technically more value than vers
Against physical
vs physical, sure its better than vers
but since we have such strong block already through talents
the relative gain from crit blocking is worth less than in previous xpacs
that being said
im convinced they stealth nerfed block from beta
Thinking if you block for 2x the damage then that leaves a larger part of your IP to absorb magic
cuz i can reach 60% block despite 418 shield
well its not 2x
since the cap is 85%
Yeah yeah
Still the higher it gets the relative damage taken from physical gets progressively smaller.
So IP won’t be eaten by physical as much
Which I am thinking gives more magic DR than vers
depends on dmg profile really
cuz the only dungeon where "magic dmg" is scary is in temple
and there is a full on split
there is hardly mixed dmg
its 1 or the other
If magic damage was not scary then mastery would be even better
wait vers is trash now?
its not trash
Like last season crit build on bdk as an example you could go so high that your parry made your physical damage intake so small that the larger magic damage taken could more easily get healed up.
but people severely overstate the importance of it
is that good on lariot for prot war?
Thinking same kinda applies here with IP
ya ik alyrion i was part of the conversation when it got created
or well, first made public
I was running it before that already and even swapped NE to get 2% more dodge to get into 80% avoidance range 🙂
i mean those are gems alright
I think u just wanna go 3x full haste
Rasz nerfs live
I see some prot going 2x vers and haste, but im not doing high keys yet
those are mine
Eye in the storm or glacial fury for m+
glacial fury
Bet ty
eye of storm is a bit more defensive and better in aoe
your really helpful! what kinda keys do u do with those gems?
but glacial fury is consistently good
isnt that raiding gems?
17-18s havent really pushed anything
Why the crit tho?
cuz its good
Ref the mastery discussion I guess it also depend on how much you gain per percentage point vs other
hmm
Is crit really that good
always was
are ur stats haste-vers-crit?
tldr all stats good
most to least
no
Mastery % is high base
Some of the tank hits in dungs on tyrannical are chunking me real hard, and im at 4-5%... But feel it might be more with proper def stance usage 🤔
i have 3250 crit 3250 haste 1100 mastery 1240 vers
hmm
Which ones and which key?
Meanwhile I am struggling to get into 15 keys or time them.
I am not dying at all but people are. This is hell to pug...
I am 394 do I should have no issues.
they liiterally dont matter
just get haste cus it feels nice
just follow the prio of ilvl > haste > crit = vers
and live your life
shit don matter
Raid dps?
Hyrja frontal, 1st and 2nd boss azure vault, bird boss academy, just to name a few
wtf lmao
@hard timber Higher keys literally only depends on CC/Interuppts and ofc mechanics
Use SR on the azure vault bosses
SR?
Spell reflect
Ohboy
I did ofc 😂
ohh
Don't think 2nd boss frontal is reflectable
I mean I dont die and do them. What people in pug groups do.. I sadly cannot control. It is just coinflipping heh
Still chunked 50% HP through SR
How do they chunk you? First boss it completely negates the hit.
But I keep trying. At least I managed to get 2k score already. Thats something
Ye first boss i know
2nd is just DR
Hyrja also takes over 50% of my hp, even with SR and def stance
In a 16
I feel like is hard to get into 15+ keys lmao
Do ur own +15
Only keys I have done this week are from a laptop while traveling for Xmas
Getting them is another thing (:
Did +16 halls, and got a +17 rlp 😂 so just went on Christmas break now
Then push it
What you mean grevious and bursting isn't fun for the whole family
Just a dumb question which i've been thinking about. Do we have any cap on shield block timer?
as a upper roof
3x duration
Without bolster
ah so basically impossible to cap
18sec without enduring defense, 24sec with enduring defense
Is it just me or 2 next weeks look kinda easy? 🤔
Very ez to cap
Essentially there is no cap
bolster adds +15sec ontop of the cap when active
I'm stuck at a 16 nokhud atm
Btw what bosses can u reflect in azure? I know the last boss dragonstrike
Incap it all the time
when you play HR you sit at 20+sec all the time
There is a spreadsheet in the pins
This
Oi! Thanks!
Remember to use SR even if you can't reflect, it's big DR on low CD
Fx on 2nd boss azure vault
@uneven mason So SR the dragon Strike in AZ did 40% of ur overall dmg?
or was it something else?
Spell reflect in azure vault and nokhud are amazing
still very very good tho
Last boss nokhud is insane for reflext
ofc its super good
its borderline unfair
cuz other tanks just get 1shot from the inital hit
Shh
So the pinned SR shit is not updated?
That's Khan, but the point is sr very good
Paladins can block it
nah like they need to nerf that ability
And not mine
Dks just heal it
but like you gotta live it first
i do love completely invalidating boss mechs with 1 ability
So sr as many Conductive Strike + Thunder strike?
The real challenge for monks atm
i mean stuff like this gets other parts of the kit nerfed
I love having reflect stuff on bosses, makes playing warr so much more fun
Sr has been doing this since uh forever
Mainly Conductive
It does more dam
its very easy for them to simply make an ability not reflectable.
such as conductive strike.
Last boss in upper kara
Aight so prio only conductive?
yeah if you aren't reflecting conductive your trolling
its millions of damage over the course of the fight
You can't SR both anyway, and Conductive is more dam
I see, cheers
It's 250k dmg pr cast in a 14
Got like 4 casts during the boss
So that's free 1 mil dmg
Conductive leaves a dot which you also reflect
Last boss in azure used to work exactly the same way with the reflect
Kinda want something to make reflecting correctly worth more
Are there any dungeon bosses you should not use shield block for at all?
Like you deflect the dot onto the boss nokhud, but you can't deflect the next thunder hit to do 500% dmg 😂
Wat
That would be nutty
Yo first time HoV +13 tonight, any special tips ?
No
No dwarf if I need to pick bleeding cleanse
interrupt the holy radiance
Block is the core of what we do
other than that
2nd boss temple is a candidate, but probably still use SB for SS dmg
have fun
First boss in Nokhud 🤷♂️ edit: never mind he said shield block, not spell reflect
OK, thanks
Aight thx
dont get blasted by the mini boss pre hyrjia
and use beers on last mini bosses to save an obscene amount of time.
If he doesn’t even know the dungeon he is not going to use beers lol
Are prot war like really above all other tanks?
No
no?
our phys DR is quite phenomenal
you saying kinda like oviously? lol
It always is
ofc
Don’t look at those guys being 410 ilvl or anything
We're just not struggling with sb uptime for the first time ever
rasz ded
ive seen warrior as s tier tank, my issue is it feels like the utility is lacking lol
lol first p3 pull after nerf
echo wf
But to answer the question, warriors are strong and will get nerfed into the dirt because the bdk crowd cries until they're meta every time
that was a massive nerf tbh
kind of a disappointing end to the race
Bdk has not been close to m+ meta for most of bfa and SL until s3 and s4. Not sure what you mean.
guys if i wanna sim my dungeon output, is Dslice a thing for us ? or do i just sim 5 targets
1t 3min + lust
5t 1.5min no lust
10t 1.5min no lust
Mix it up
then draw a conclusion from that
i hope wars dont get nerfed anymore lol
Lol what did they nerf the boss just before liquid woke up? 🤔
yeah, kind of a silly end. honestly think Liquid got the shaft with all the nerf timings.
we wont know for sure
until everybody is fully kitted out
and people reach their peaks
pwar is easy
pwar is solid
It’s always the same thing.
therefor its perceived meta
but my take is, pally will be top tier tank cuz of their offhealing and utility capabilities
If you go first in RWf you get stuck on many things that later get changed 🤷♂️
scripe with big brain strats
warrior is just the brick wall running into things adn cant save members lol
Very true, but man, it's kind of hilarious how bad the tuning was.
but so strong
How is rwf such a big event, and still so horrible 😂
yeah especially this week i hate how i cant help my group on bosses
cuz its not unified nielsen
if it was 1 mega stream
1 mega venue
it would be much better
prot war defintiely easier than bdk tho yeah
but since it 3 different camps
If they just do unified raid release 🤷
Pwar is just more forgiving
its very secluded
what buff are you taking in algethar academy guys?
haste
Just release raid at the same time
They don’t care and it fucks with timezones
Total 180 from how it generally is
This is the only real solution.
Who cares about timezones, only rwf are playing insta raid anyway
Imagine if they did rwf like a MDI rvent
If your reset is 8pm your time you won’t find that fun
NA just need to git gud
Then that's just part of it for your org, you can just not participate
The spell block spreadsheet is amazing.
Let them roll a coin or some shit about when the reset will be 😂
I meant for regular people
I don't get the emotional frenzy for us vs eu
Spell block isnt a guarantee for stopping the dmg on hyjra or whatever in halls
To be fair I think half of liquids team was eu
is it?
How many people go into raid instant at the reset?
it might have been better if they had scheduled the nerf a day or 2 in advance so that all guilds in the race could have a chance to make themselves available after the change
Only pugs i guess?
Then you watch m+ and splits for two days
If you have to set 1 global time for reset and raid release then some time zone will be fucked with reset and maintenance in the middle of regular people’s raid nights.
Or just don't watch any
is the bone really better than trample/blazebinder? O.o
I have watched like 20 mins of Raz just to see the fight 🤷♂️
What was the boss nerf even?
I'm not even raiding this season probably
apparently 5% hp nerf
And then they instantly kill it
Pretty huge with a 5% nerf when they were at 10% already
Seems suspicious
Oh thank you for removing the last part 🙂
Where is this
Preach going ‘where did that come from’. Well from the hp nerf obviously lol
What is best weapon to craft with my spark?>
A big one
X)
-Slightly adjusted the timing of events at the start of phase 3.
-Reduced the rate at which motes of Storm-Energy are spawned.
-Slowed the rate that the Raging Storm closes in.
no hp nerf
Slowing the rate of the storm seems huge for p3 though depending on how much.
That was literally the sticking point
Sucks that it happened on a nerf but the better team still won. Echos best pulls were so much cleaner than liquids
such is life
noticeable diff for sure
Now they can go home and actually spend time with family and shit
yeah nah they're WF raiders
boss > family
is heroic raz really any harder from a tank perspective?
did normal and it was a snoozefest
no
ive seen tanks get oneshot but idk if thats messed up tank swaps or not
Is prot warr threat lower than other tanks? Im often losing threat at the beginning of new pull trying to grp mobs
Then your dps sucks
In the pins
no might be an ilvl issue
So I learned the spell reflect trick on first boss in RLP but struggled to kill the boss at all in a 12. Are there any other tips for that boss and for RLP in general to make it easier?
is there a way to load these mdt routes into a browser? i want to have the route on my other monitor
Screen shot and mspainte
You struggle or your group struggles?
How much haste do we need for m+ ?
as much as possible without giving up strength
all of it
|———————|
Won’t there be a point haste is at dr and we want vers to survive ?
Ic
Ofc
i have extremely limited complaints about DF so far
its giga meh
is the world rare drop trinket (primal ritual shell) good for prot? I assume mastery proc?
Which tanking trinket is good for us from m+?
I just looted the trinket from raidfinder and try a key with it. It felt turbo bad dmg and healing wise l, maybe I use it wrong(used on cd)
No and its fire if u have it
none
both of them are super underwhelming
im using heroic decoration of flame, it is strictly OKAY
thats what I have been doing but some duingeons have different floors
or the map is massive and hard to see without zooming in like NO
I use flame in dungeons to help with big pulls, I'm reaching a ceiling where healers can't handle tyran bosses and can't go higher. 😕
"It's a gear issue" for 17s when we are at 397 to 400. 😕
Just bad players more likely
I just got scale I might pump it's ilvl to be over my 408 all totem to use it
It is, stands on other side of room during whelp boss, wonders why whelp eat their face while we are all at boss for shield
Teaching healers keys in 17 and 18s is clearly the perfect time D:
dungeon slice sim from raidbots can be trusted?
Believe health nerf on raz was old. It's just bigger delay at start of p3 to just pump, then less storms to soak and the creeping storm on the outside comes in slower giving more time before soft enrage
Nah
im thinking
since the aoe apl is somewhat close to reality
wouldnt dungeon slice be kinda usable?
My fellow Protection experienced m+ tanks Please tell me why our pinned talents avoid barbaric training. I get why you want avoid it in 2 or 4 set scenario but isnt it too much of dps decrease?
If you dont have set ofc
barbaric training is not a big dps increase
youll rage starve yourself when you play it
and thus be squishier
especially on single target
I play it now and i dont feel i have problem but maybe i need check that
And see if it is true 🙂
Or im just used to
Isnt it 50% rage cost increase and 25% dmg increase? So less dmg per rage than without the talent
And less ss resets too
yes it makes the spell wildly less efficient
mage tower is not yet back up
because its not tuned around new talent trees
anyone else notice dragon dps randomly pulling threat off?
i notice struggling dying healers all this past 2 weeks
even more so this week now,
just, poof, dead
yes this week is SUPER hard for healers
the only time i ever lose threat is when a dragon dps is on my team
alot of the really good players that get KSM may never play again until s2
KSM is not a measure of good players.
i mean, you cant use flying mou nts in any dungeon minus nokhud
? the ksm mount is useless in the expansion
i'd rather have a nice ground mount high rez for when im always limited to ground mounting say in dungeon
glad mount is also an actual reward
If we follow the logic u get it from dungeon so u use it in dungeon
if a mount is 100% drop rate from all difficulties
you cant compare a mount you get for doing your weekly no leavers
to a glad mount
It’s from all difficulties?
yes
What a joke
What is actual reward for 2500 rio?
is it 2k or 3k io for the mount this time
2k got it last night
2k is mount
Raid meta mount is a ground mount too, did wf in that cuz we sweaty
Raz mount is def not 100%
we didn’t have a single one drop in our raid this week
We got 2 on heroic last night, and I think 1 each normal kill
I’d agree it’s super high drop rate but not guarantee
Idk what’s this gleaming incarnate stuff
Oh that is actually nice for some1 who’s not gonna touch mythic raiding anymore
2500 is what, 19s and 20s?
yeah, unlocks cosmetics for certain pieces
‘Only’ around 400 rio more and it’s mine
@strong forum and last question i want to ask 🙂 I also see in pinned messages that recomended M+ build from Thunderlord too Battering Ram? Wont it affect too much of Shout uptime? Did you test both and have some thoughts?
battering ram is more rage and more dmg
especially in low target situations
if you play TL you desync CDs from demo shout
effectively losing some dmg there, you lose shout uptime but that doesnt matter
Stupid questions: with what CDs shout i line up shout?
I removed thunderlord recently and it feels much better
Ok guys thanks for tweaks ill test it 🙂
just because the synergy exists
doesnt mean you have to use it
between Unstoppable force, thunderlord and booming voice*
its really one of those good on paper, bad in practice things, or meh at best
its not bad
but i dont see any real value in it
when battering ram nets you so much more all the time
id rather drop the talent and take something else personally
with or without thunderlord youll still get 2 demo shouts per pack
Battering ram seems so good while people dont know what to interrupt, so can't really do 2-3 packs yet
talking about thunderlord to be clear
Kinda sad the ravager talents aren't really worth anything 🙃
opinion? Don't wanna sim, too lazy 😐
its weapon ilvl, so yes
Sorry for asking guys, do we have any way to properly handle the healing absorb strike from 3rd boss of Jade Serpent?(maybe some key talent) because today a monk was struggling super hard to remove it in a 16
the more dps number = you hit harder
thought maybe stats might be better tho...
you always equip ilvl shield / weapon regardless of stats
you can defo outdps your dps players because you play around your own damage
impending victory helps a bunch
Last stand, healing pot, wall, def stance, imp victory
except i play around their CDs with omnicd
its not my fault the DH held meta until the sun went blackhole.
yeah, i take rank 3 healing potions to every dungeon i go to
Last stand should negate one application of the debuff
heals for 128k or somethin
Pot + imp victory is huge heal
its always the tank's fault
ok the basics then, nothing in particular
i dont even have whetstone or boon and i top every key i pug, help me nom
get me out of this abyss
i wish they had attached inedllible victory to IV, but whatever (whenever you did IV it would, i forget if this is replace or additive, but it did a heal over time, like, it was like, 400% over X seconds somethin)
get more tanks
