its working dont ask me
Does he have shield?
naked pwar is dead pwar
Also, one question.
shield weapon neck fingers and trinkets, everything else is unequipped
Well to be honest
Tank damage from CoS is a joke.
sure but still he has only 200k hp and legit no armor
True true
Show me a stream of you doing it with that gear.
ohh you cant?
naowh is just insane I dont know
It doesnt mean that it isnt remarkable.
he is taking less dmg with no armor than me with 405 in 18s XD
You saying that naowh is just that good?
kinda yeh and this is the type of shit that will get warrior nerfed
I still dont understand why he plays his dk
Dk is really good atm
I want to believe that bdk is a dead spec.
Its almost like all warrior needs is good shield
As long as the damage is blockable rest doesnt mean as much
I mean, given that SL bdk was a beast. To feel like karmic, i want bdks to be monk tier shit.
doesn't block + IP mitigate most physical damage anyway
There's a issue tho.
armor is just more of a bonus
Naowh is playing with top tier DPS'ers.
Doubt you can pull it off with your random pugs doing 40-50k overall.
🙂
I did 40k overall. But it was low key with battle stance up all the time. 
hes pugging and his dps are not good 
Ok, that's on me - i don't watch streams. I just thought he's playing with his usual group.
Usually I am 35k
no he's full pug group
thats right x) his Hunter cant even BL XD
Well, just looking at my last +20 cos.
Hunter doest even have BL pet
he will fcking time this 20+ COS what the hell x)
So atleast he chose the right dungeon for it.
smartly skipping the one mob that can actually kill him
I told him to do my 20+ TJS 😉 dont think he will do it hehe
He might die to the last boss tho
i dont know
pally can pump him, others dont take that much dmg
all you have to do is avoid
well the pulsating dmg is not avoidable
Actually nvm
The pulsating does 0 damage tho.
Where do you guys get your M+ routes from?
Shouldn’t be an issue
My smart brain
with enough stamina it does no dmg, yes
he is perma sitting on dstance
How do you live last pack though
he will not die to last boss
You will also have IV for pretty much all of them.
he depleted it x)
What was the issue?
no kicks
spell reflect dark claws and stun them if you cant, then you get no dmg
last pack is skill check
Rotate CD's, take spell block, kite if needed
spell block is legit a life safer for TJS
I know I am going to loot Whetstone from COS tonight. I can feel it. You know. The Friday 13th feeling.
Thanks guys.
Np
spell block is amazing
Quick question; does anything really change for tanks in Raszageth from normal to heroic?
Do the champions (the first pack in halls) use a frontal or an out rangeable tank buster?
No
Only that there are 2 grps on the 3rd platform, so every tank has to tank
thanks!
hey guys does anyone know how to get cooldowns like Dark Claws showing on enemy nameplates?
have seen streamers with it
"Spell CDs on nameplate"
https://wago.io/B-saNwgCJ this one?
Yup, was unsure if I could link 🙂
thanks 🙂
for last pack of tjs, you can make them cast dark claw at the same time so SR >stun> SR again
should i craft shield with armor spikes or nah?
can you destroy an crafted item to get the spark back? no right ?
No
About to tank Broodkeeper heroic adds for the first time, anything i should know?
Only tanked the boss before
3 eggs hurt
#healerproblem
It won't reflect all of the dark claws right?
it will if they cast at the same time
add spawn locations
Adds spawn - go there.
That's about it.
Didn't know. That's cool.
There are some interrupts but you should have them covered with the melee group
alrighty
Some adds have nasty stunning frontal, move away
Hey chads any shield crafter here? 🙂 twisting nether
Yo i have a question about Impending Victory. In m+ i noticed that not all kills resets its cooldown. Do i need to have killing blow on the target or what are the conditions for it to reset?
killing blow yes
If anyone has any tips for mythic kurog that'd be nice. Got spider down last night and about to start prog on Monday. Not 100% sure of the differences and both me and co-tank feel like we are going in blind
guys howling rune or ap for weapon?
Howling, always
Cool will do the same today. If we deplete I‘ll blame healer obviously.
With the news about ruby Shell which training would be best for prot? The haste proc or aoe/ST dmg proc?
Can you range the piercing shard cast from the fury’s in azure vault?
There's a trick to getting them lined up; you either need to aggress all of them at the same time, or stun them so the casts line up correctly. The first is easy to do if you either Heroic Leap into the pack (so they all get hit by the landing), or you charge something else in the pack (not one of the things you are trying to line the casts of, because if you charge one of them they are aggressed a fraction of a second earlier than the rest)
Just use your stops on piercing cast
I don’t have enough stops for 4 fury’s I’m just curious if ranging it is an option
You can LoS it but the range is pretty much too high that you can’t
Okay cool thank you
Now that we know more about whelp shell, do we know how we might want to train it for M+? damage or haste both seem good
There's no shot u have a good boss movement chart like this? or is this pic supposed to be boss movement to keep from the adds? (the arrows in the middle is making me doubt sorry XD )
Still TBD
The boss one we used was a generic one as well, I'll try and find it give me a sec
mvp ty ❤️
This is the boss one
Not make or break but the earth ele adds with the frontal cone cast has a travel time so don't run back in front of them once the cast ends immediately or you'll still get hit
Just wait like 0.5 seconds
Ty so much. I feel as tho im running around like a headless chicken with the boss XD this'll help alot! tyty
CRIT
Probably yes, may get some more juicy shield slam outburst crits 😄
Moar crit
does anyone have a Shockwave 4fun build? I was trying to think of one but I'm having a brain fart.
Morning all. New prot here. one questions, all the builds put points into Rend but none of the priority lists show using rend anywhere in the rotation. ( Icy Veins). Should I be using rend before my thunder clap to spread it?
No - TC spreads it
Thunderclap applies Rend
don't even need it on your bars
ahh, it dosent nee to be applid first?
Nope
makes sense, thnx
If you have Blood and Thunder talented that is
Does Spell Block work for the last trash pack in TJS?
ya, i do. I was wondering if that was 2 wasted points 😛
So, big advice, go through and read the talents. Don't just copy a build and press W, this is how we get warriors who use whirlwind
Sometimes I like to use whirlwind...makes me feel like a beyblade
whatever makes you happy 
I only do M+ content and don't raid, and I currently have the elemental lariat crafted. What should be the second item crafted? I see a lot of posts that it should be the unstable frostfire belt because it interacts with the raid rings, but I don't raid and don't have those. Should I still craft that or is there a better emblishment item?
I should have probably linked my gear. I have a 405 crafted shield , and my belt is my lowEst ilvl item. https://raider.io/characters/us/scilla/Matrixrage
do I want the AA or NO weapon? ppl keep telling me different things
guys , has anyone noticed even though there are alot of prot warriors but the lack quality to tank the spec
Fotm is strong
I wouldn‘t know I only tank and dont see other tanks
It attracts a lot of people
Well
and everyone is gonna be shit at it cus they have never played pwarr before because we've always been "f---" tier
Prot is strong AND fun
thats why id rather pick BRm or dk these days
They should
BfA was strong for pwar
How would macro that casts ravager where is stand look like ?
You want on cursor or at player?
meant for past couple of years
Player
/cast [@heavy mirage] ravager ?
#showtooltip Ravager
/cast [@heavy mirage] Ravager
Yeah
You can have modifier to make it cast on cursor if you want
I used to he it at cursor
Probably
newish tank question... how often are yall rolling around outside of defensive stance?
All the time
99% of the time
unless im either a) taking hella damage
Are these really our best trinkets from m+? This is from Protwar wowhead guide
or b) i know im gonna be taking hella dmaage
I didnt reach the point to be in DS yet
Also im a casual doing 15 range of keys atm 🙂
So i can go full gas no breaks
Every prot warr I’ve seen in public is in defensive stance at all times
It’s really awkward to witness lmao
Yeah its embarrassing
Be at like 100% doing half my damage
i mean they arent doing anything wrong
there job is to mitigate as much damage as possible
and u do more in dstance
so you're telling me that I can humiliate dps even more by switching to dps stance?
like your even more busted in d stance tbh
Oh here comes Jakey completely missing the sarcasm
I only go d stance when I know big dam coming my way
apb
Ofc @brittle silo
who needs dps players anyway
right now the grass out my window is white tyvm
i nearly agreed with you yesterday until it endup being a pug
Noted
Poor mage in my academy key recently was outdamaged by me.
"big pumper 4set and bl" in note on mage
A dps left my group yesterday cause I wasn't holding agro on the spiteful spirit : )
It is yea.
LOL
LUL

Mage Kekw
I had lots of meeles recently trying to meele their own down and die. Than be like: bro
I'm pretty sure that there's a sweetspot that u can do that. At least I used to in SoD
Probably. But if you die from it the 5th time maybe dont
Oh yea ofc, I'm trying to understand the reasoning over there
Nope, the list just hasn't been updated since launch
Is it me or is spiteful just not an affix?
What are the best Trinkets from M+ ?
: (
had a rogue get smacked to death twice (+1 cheat) on bonemaw cus "wtf i cant cloak this??"
😂 lil bro thought he could magic immune
Probably whelp and whet
Thanks
I wouldn't say whelp yet
He wins on adorablness
On that note we did a sbg 19 yesterday and bonemaw would not phase a single time. Anyone had that befire? Like we smacked him to like 50% until the first inhale. And submerge came at like 10%
Big true tbh
Is blazebinders as good as wowhead makes it out to be for us
It's decent if all you can get for trinkets is M+ if you're not raiding
how about horn of valor tho? Huge flat versa and primary stat on use for bursts
Well I have a 402 decoration and 402 rumbling ring however wowhead has it over both of them. Was just curious of everyone’s thoughts
Tbh the best trinket is the storm one from raid because I need a trinket that randomly nukes shit when I'm trying to mount in nokud
If you're just wondering what does more damage, simming is an option
This tbh
naaah, more like flexibility and overall usability
More so was just curious of what had the best overall benefits
did a RLP 19 was ez
But simc doesn't give you snarky but hilarious responses like skyhold
yeah i skip that one too
and the pat after
not by choice but usually cus we've ninjad so many mobs already that we can
I dont skip the big golems b4 first boss
they are very ez tbh
I cleave them with other packs
What I wouldn't give for DPS who moved out of ground effect
Pug life
I set increasing limits to rating/ilvl every week to pug ngl
otherwise its pain
ilvl wont matter as much tho now..
after jan 23 set wont rly be a good way to distinguish either
tbf at that point everyone will be able to do 20s easy so anyway
i didnt know u did any content besides pvp Varughh
i do like 90% pve and que a solo shuffle once a day
thanks for this! actually started on her yesterday and didn't realize you could pop more than 2 eggs. this will help!
how do you survive the shield of light on 2nd boss HoV? shield walled the first 2, third one one shot me thru def stance+spell reflect
demo shout, spell block, last stand
yea i usually jump straight to other side, maybe i should stay closer first so i can demo
yeah just let her ping you over herself.
reflect is up for every shield of light, i think demo shout is also
Anyone know how much haste you need to run into the fray vs HR to get 100% uptime on SB in keys?
36% i think
Go with 40 for safety
40 with or wthout ittf?
without
LOL
wellll fuck im so far off
40% unbuffed
its always without
i have 19% lmao
Literally run hr and not worry about it, iirc the DPS gain in m+ isn't huge
i really wanna find a way to fit bloodborne into my talents
its garbage, dont bother.
bloodborune is 1.5% damage
how good is that shit? How much ilvl would you want to have on trinket in order to switch? Consider only m+ trinkets
per point
What's the opportunity cost
spell block
or tough as nails
and something else
u need to loose
to go 2 poitns into bloodbourne
its literally pointless
Was going to say unless you're moving defensive points only bb is a DPS loss
And even then those defensive losses won't be worth losing unless you're doing smol content
Wait are we not defaulting ITF over HR?
HR makes SB up easy
In raids, yes
im 10% away from 40 :/
I hate playing with ITF personally
Why?
Nah in keys I mean. I never played HR yet
in raids its fine, just feel much better with HR in m+
And I don’t have problems with uptime
logs.
in raids even without the haste 40% breakpoint?
if im only doing up to 15s 16s whats point of logging
I use HR/battering ram build in m+ personally
analyze and improve your play
i think enough 9f that information gunna be dead front centre
Up to you if you want to log or not, but better data is helpful
I'm playing around with builds, "one handed weapon spec", how important is that? Especially if I'm going into an aoe build
its good
i dont see a point or guiding light in logging
People are new, better to ask than assume
^
i just doubt it will be useful to me, it could be useful to you guys, but if i play correctly ill be able to time 15 everytime right
no idea how to do av 18+ on pug w/o skip avg dps 65k and we miss 1m30sec
I mean if you theoretically if you play correctly you can beat any content
so, and if im not gojng beyond that,i say whats point of log, i wont be improving much past that
Because data is helpful
its an absurdly tight timer.
pull harder, do more dam
nothing else to it
I'm not arguing you should log, it's entirely up to you
But there's a reason logging is helpful
only way to pull more is 1st ring
Hey guys I'm new to the discord and had a question.
Was pugging VoI and got to grimtotem. Kept boss facing the wall. Dps kept dying to cone...they kicked me saying I was wrong.
Was I wrong?
Thanks for any advice.
I timed Av 19 with pug. I don’t bother with skips either
but it is liek imp to get 3 packs
No, the boss frontal isnt supposed to hit anyone else but the one tanking it
tyra or forti ?
If he's facing the wall and they get hit by the frontal, they're in the wrong spot
Skips in a pug always annoying to be honest
tyra is ok
i just think a log is gunna be better suited to some gives a crap about improving
i cant fit time on forti
i just want the stupid mount
is liek 5-6 try today 😦
Is your dps doing good damage
Nah, if people run in front it’s on them
Your damage seems a bit low I think
Unless you turn during the boss or some shit
ye it is
@amber siren thanks. Was really confused as the RL flamed me o.o
Azure Vault's timer felt really tight for me. Did a +18 yesterday with every dps being 70k+ and still went overtime by about 19ish seconds... jdimsa
🤷 pugs gonna pug
That’s bad
Okay fair, adding into that do you find sonic boom or thunderous words better?
tw yes
thunderous words is more damage
Thunderous Words always
sb no
and better
Ok thank you!
because our not using your utility as a dps cooldown
i need only 12 more points 😦 to be happy
Should I go into uproar as well then?
@amber siren absolute truth.
I think working to get your damage to at least 40k dps would help you a lot
ye i know i try but my logs are bad i try ddo proper rotation butthere is time i got all on cd and 0 rage
i play like 3.5 week
Could be good time to practice on dummy
problem on dummy is static dont need to move ect
on m+ swaping target avoids ect and ... ye brain farts
i feel i panic to much
Well, i reached this breakthrough by swapping battle with defensive stance.
yah the stances are critically important to our gameplay
i run 70% in battle
I am quite nervous about higher keys though. Also it feels like cheating.
my biggest problem so far
was rlp 17 tyra
i did it in tiem but 1st/2nd boss is like
The problem with battle stance is that it incentive you to get less big pulls and it gets generally less dps from your group overall
I pull the appropriate amount for what the situation calls for even in battle stance
I am in battle stance a lot of the time like 95%
You pump more but dds pump less
You're nearly never pulling based on what the tank can survive, it's what the party can survive
I view defensive stance as basically a defensive cooldown
i think my best is academy i did 18 in time
and I swap back as soon as possible
and i love tree trash
There are opportunities where DS is good, no doubt, but it's not something to camp in
Ofc, since bird tyr is such a hassle
i hope i will hit 2500 today
After I do KSH, I will take a break from wow until next season.
i think after 2500 i will go eazy life and roll dh/rog
Hi! Which is the best place to sim?
Raidbots
what should your lariat uptime be? im using single stat gems to guarantee haste proc but im seeing about 25% uptime but when I look at other logs with multistat gems they sometimes seem to have a combined higher uptime
30ish
might just be variance then
Yes
You can low roll and have 18 and high roll and have like 38
Highest I've had was 43 lowest I've had was 18 iirc
On a raidboss
On longer encounters it'll obv average out much more evenly
1 more q if i may is prot war 4 set is a big deal ?
do you guys prefer sophic or frozen devotion?
In m+, decently so, in raid not so much
You can sim it, but the higher ilvl you have the better sophic becomes
Frozen devotion is better if you're not as good of a player
Cuz it doesn't depend on you pressing buttons well
thanks ^^
I used to agree but tbh if you use spell block well and rotate stops/reflect/shield wall when it isn't up the trash is pretty easy (assuming your group kicks well)
That last trash pack is vile
i played more aggresive cos19 42k dps
Hop scotch the claws as well. Makes a huge difference.
make sure your group or yourself desyncs the trash on the last pack, so not all beams and claws hit at the same time
I thought you were supposed to sync the claws so that they get all deflected at the same time
Then the 2nd cast oneshot
on their first cast yeah but afterwards even with spellblock its pretty much ggs in higher keys
Tbh TJS makes me want to run IO
if you get them synced up, you can use AoE stops when spell reflect is down
reflect 1, shockwave 2, I think you can reflect 3, int shout 4, etc
more options if you have group aoe stops
A question: the alchemy trinket is considered embellishment?
Hey I haven't really done this in the past but would anyone look at my Heroic Kurog log and tell me if they'd recommend something (it went well, just looking for input if anything stands out)? I've been looking around here for a while and listening to people's advice and think there's always room to improve!
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/compare/fzFakCHMNpgqXmhw/self#fight=14,14&type=summary&source=3,-2
Does it have the embellishments flag
there's also a Dathea kill in there in case someone wants to look at it!
you havew some pretty large gaps in shield block uptime, id reccoomend just using HR instead of ITF until you can consistently prevent these gaps
good point, i can't read logs super good but maybe this was when i wasn't tanking? it's an easy swap though, i'll try it next week
maybe i want SB up at all time anyway
i won't lie i'm trying to push damage a little 😅
yep which is why i'll try better uptime, thx
In the time line view under buffs I noticed that there are a lot of times you dont have IP and SB up.
oh that view is neat, can you zoom out while viewing it that way
Shield block big DPS gain
if boss is on farm ip uptime is w.e. if he wants to push dmg
With the 4 piece adding in IP it might help but it does not add on time so it might not help at all?
IP is an offensive spend
yes you can also spend on revenge if gcds allow it
Does anyone read anger management
lol
Yes it shows a lot of data
Or violent outburst

looking at ip uptime =/= what you are saying
True
But IP should be almost 100%
so, SB up i can fix that for sure, now another question, when i go to ressource tab, and look at rage. is that view a good indicator of if i wasted rage, i'm not sure i'm reading it correctly
make a WA for it somewhere on ur screen if u dont already have one
Heroic Dathea - Anyone able to tell me what the initial taunt swaps look like? I thought it was just taunt at 3 and first tank goes up to platform, but second tank just got slapped despite us killing adds quickly
we swapped at 4 and it was np
with the nerfs you can tank 5 and it's still ok so not sure what is getting you slapped
Can you remove an embellishment from a crafted item?
one of the things we changed on our Dathea is now we switch immediately to add on main platform, instead of dragging the add to the edge, the knockback works at all range and you want to interrupt the platform big add asap.
preventing the add channel is the top prio on Dathea
Ok, not sure what happened then. Other tank was a pally and died twice to Zephyr Slam. L2P issue maybe
done! good point, thx
How did you scale out on that? Cause that view is fantastic
Yeah just right click it on recraft
Thanks!
Yes
ey boys, i caved in, what do i need to put in it 
gems
Does 2p set change our prio´s? Let´s say I´m not rage capped and have bot SS and revenge available.
Gratz on the bait neck
ended up having no other choice 😄
since i want something that works for both Arms + Prot
and i already crafted Engi Wrist
would be ilvl waste to craft 418 Allied Wrist
So i only have the elemental lariat, considering either the primal molten defender with armor spikes, or the frostfire belt.... what do you guys think?
shield without armor spike + frostfire belt + lariat
is what im sporting now
Realistically no, it just adds the buff as part of the ‘rotation’, you don’t need to min max it
is 50% uptime on 2pc ok?
kekw
👀
thats a good idea
but i would recommend some hast vers or vers hast and a primary haste
With the lariat and a haste verse gem, will it proc haste verse? Or haste or vers?
Select timelines, then buffs
Counts as an air gem so procs haste
Oh i see!
haste vers gem is a frost gem
it will proc vers
if you want to only proc haste, you should gem with haste as the second lower stat
Is there a document or similar that says when it is suggested to run SB and when to run Intervene? Please @ me 🙂
It's over
gz, you're free from prison
Now for Boots prison
I swear to god I just had the most toxic CoS run. I had like the only stun for imps and everyone kind of expected me to miraculously solo the imps with one shockwave. Then someone ass pulls the second imps like 20 seconds after with shockwave on cd and they start flaming me for not stunning. Dear lord.
What is your best dungeon? Meaning from all m+ dungeons from Legion up to Dragonflight.
That’s kinda cruel lol
Should have jumped in first to reflect, second stun, third fear
100% enough to kill the imps
People just as well to imps to damage them. Watch your team wipe. Experienced that.
Only 31 so not too bad
Yeah ppl have no patience for the spell reflect tech on impa
Team was too close, they casted at random.
Imps*
Hey question
On halls of Valor, the shieldbreakers who cast mortal hew and breach armor
Are both frontal or just mortal hew
Been getting mixed responses
You can dodge both
And in pugs can you really expect the tank to pull that off? I dunno.
Just back step on fast
People flame me that the strat is shit. Maybe they are shit.
Cast
So should my melee be watching for frontal on breach armor?
We have a say in Greece. Either the boat sails wrong or the wing blows wrong.
Can't remember if Breach is frontal cone, but Mortal Hew is what will slap your melee if they're stacking on you
Only mortal hew
That's what I thought
So my melee are getting hit by breach armor well it still says I have threat
Anyone got a reason?
Mortal Hew is a cleave. Breach Armor is a single target debuff.
Is breach armor a fervent?
A what
Breach armor doesnt affect your dds any way.
fervent strike
hmmmm, it may be?
I thought I spelled it wrong
fervent = if tank is out of range, it hits someone in range
which mob does it?
Shieldmaster
in HoV?
Yes
not sure dont think so
but they do have frontals right?
HoV is like what ive done the least
yeah mortal hew forsure is a frontal
Valarjar Shieldmaiden
Use heroic leap to strategically drop stacks of it if you want a more pug friendly approach
but somehow my dmg dealers are getting hit with breach armor and ive been very confsued
Don't be confused. They're idiots. Very simple problem to spot.
Don't stand in front of mob. Ever.
Problem is people are clueless.
but people are saying its not a frontal
Mortal hew is
is it a frontal ?
I've been using boon of the storm-eater to get killed by the tank that side-steped next to me
I ate the next mortals
Breach armor is not
Don't stand in front of the mob and then it's not a problem either way
Aggro problem?
I was talking about the imps in CoS.
The HoV frontals afaik are possible to get hit just by clipping into their model
It’s bigger than just don’t be in front
Breach armor isn't a frontal
Just mortal hew right?
Yes
@strong forum I got better at bdk 
Nice
Someone drop earth elemental? Could have turned mobs
Nice 😎
Is that AA?
Yeah
What dungeon you guys playing spell block on? TJS, AV, RLP, NO, SBG?
Oh, shockwave and clench butt
You can technically find a use for it on every dung but like.. NO?
Honestly I run it in every dungeon at this point and I find some use for it
I love spell block
@pulsar sedge yeah I’m thinking ele boss area and teera moruk area and even on last boss phase 3
@toxic pewter I’m leaning to the same honestly but wanted to see what people are doing here
At high levels it helps smooth out a lot of magic damage
I dont think you are loosing a ton by swapping and loosing Tough as nails
Yeah that’s the way I see. Don’t get me wrong I like tough as nails
But spell block is really good
Ok so far I’m seeing similar thoughts to me then
do you guys under pull first 2 bosses of TJS as well on fortified vs tyranical week?
Everytime i swap it off.. Im going "Damn, would be nice to have Spell block up to mitigate that dmg"
still a pretty easy key level but i wiped use on a 12 rlp to pulling 3 mobs too many at start
Those big water elementals I usually pull one at a time
Yeah I kinda prefer spell block and just stay in bstance
Can los them but i find they do a lot of dam
so im having slight doubts about what is on my current routes
@toxic pewter I think most of that damage is the small mobs using splash
Cant really mess up TotJS tho
Yah true
Only thing i see people skipping is the panda bros
Do you guys pull both water elementals at first full
see, without knowing, i would because cooldowns
Have you seen pulling them and lust for first pull? Saw that before and found it interesting for fort
I tend to single pull, but i just pug. They are kinda derpa on avoiding the aoe lol
Yah exactly same
Ill tank right on a corner to make it ez pz.. they still take it to the face lol
It’s sort of personal pref a lot like haste vers. Some enjoy haste crit
on an average keyt
In my experience people always fuck up the los so not worth
If i had a good group, maybe. But the dmg is huge if people arent LoS the pops
You don’t need to do anything crazy to time tjs
Yah it’s risky
Unlike HoV or AV
On +20 it’s alright to heal through it on fortified
spell block in hov is really good too in my opinion
i feel alot better this morning so far
When in doubt with pugs, let them zug zug and pull to where they can just kick and kill
But heal won’t be happy
hopefully key isn't too rough
for what adds?
All the casters
Mostly hyrja on tyrannical
usually casters hit your dds
there is a bunch of lightning dudes before first boss
Yeah I mean lots of magic damage in there
I wonder if spell block helps against the dragon I don’t even know
Dunno, i always pop it there anyways ;D
I don’t think the 2 lightning dudes ever target the tank before first boss
I also don’t think hyrja blast can be blocked because I ram spell block there and the blast did the same damage but I could be wrong
Is there a document or similar that says when it is suggested to run SB and when to run Intervene? Please @ me 🙂
it's blockable per the spreadsheet
Just checked lightning breath is blockable
That alone it’s worth in my opinion
That dragon pull can go badly
I picked up intervene at the start of the xp, and honestly.. I always find a use for it shrug
Yah I never use it but I’d be down to try interven again
intervene big qol
Any time you have ranged, it is usefull
Anytime your dps zug zug the thundering till last 2 sec, its useful
Hov.. Useful
The lightning breath is blockable with it
Yes
So what do I remove to take intervene?
Yeah and the fact you can just block the wolf damage in HoV is insane
Pain and gain
Or drop the fear
Wolf hits like a truck.
Does the charge / intervene macro still work
Not if you intervene the target @lyric geode
Wolves hit like a truck.
I was referring to the adds.
Boss wolf
#showtooltip charge
/cast [@mouseover, exists, help, nodead] Intervene
/cast [exists,nodead,harm] Shield Charge
/cast [exists, nodead, harm] Charge
Thats the one i use
will this ever Charge?
Yupp
Not really. You want to use shield charge on cd?
you want to charge first if you're out of range
but you also wanna use Charge on CD
i mean when you get in range after Shield Charge, you cant Charge
so that you start the fight with more rage
Oh good this conversation again

To each their own. Idc. He asked if the old macro worked.
Just take out shield charge then and use it when you feel like it
Shield block is nice
Or if you are nit picky about it, just swap shield charge to second? Then it will prio charge first, shield charge second
Voila
Is there a haste cap/breakpoint?
40% when not using ItF from what was said
when i convert M+ item to Tier set, will it keep the Stats or change stats? 🤔
change stats
Maining pwarrior and loving it, but would like an alt tank, can’t decide if pala or dk. What are the pros and cons you think?
and which tier piece is the worst for us?
Dk's are always nice
If i ever could steal an ability from someone.. I want grip ;D
is it helmet? cus of the high mastery?
I'd rather just have gag order back
What’s the % of stats haste and vers should I be going for for m+
most say gloves
hmm ok
cuz helm still has haste right?
was wondering to pick Gloves 418 from vault for Tier
cant recall
tbh if the gloves are a bigger upgrade id just go that direction
No magic numbers on stats
More stats is better stats than going for a specific one
im not sure tbh
haste mastery gloves eeek
yea but ilvl
ye
its that vs 421 ring
and rings dont give main stat
so probably better to take Gloves
which ring?
is it worth to craft shield?
though honestly if not AA ring just do the gloves
in most cases very much so, but without context harder to give you a specific answer
nokhud ring
idk it
haste vers
@prisma crane fair haha sorry so im only 385 on this alt
372 shield atm
i haqve 398 COS ring
solid, but up to you, you prob wont replace that ring, but gloves could get replaced, but only by 3 ilvl
in that scenario, still gloves though cuz itll make your time NOW better, which is better
prob best to still craft shield, its our most important slot and then you dont have to worry about it anymore
im debating farming offensive sword and making shield or just making wep and shield
atm only crafted i have are lariat and vers wrist
for M+ do you guys tank with sophic or frozen devotion?
If you don’t mythic raid (without getting lucky with 421 weapon in vault) - 418 weapon is highest you can get crafted
wouldn't shield be more impactful for prot than a 1h weapon?
i made a wrist a 2h for fury
but i'm finding myself playing prot more so i was leaning towards doing 1h and shield also
but doesn't the 1st mythic boss drop a 415 shield?
seems kinda doable to pug that
thx bro i pulled the trigger
now just to figure out my valor 😄
yeah, at least get a rank 2 sophic or frozen
unless you're holding off to craft a 418?
No socket so meh
how do you choose which? sophic for raid, frozen for M+?
i cant find someone to sell me Diamond
so i have 2/3 only 😄
Seeing that magnificent panda makes me want to dust off mine that's been sitting idle since Throne of Thunder
frozen tends to be better ST, Sophic better in AoE. general consensus is Sophic is the way to go if you're good at pressing your buttons.
interesting
can also sim yourself
❤️
@prisma crane what will i easiest replace? 415 Big Toe, or 415 COS ring 🤔
neither i guess tho
so it doesnt rly matter too much
maybe COS ring gets replaced by Fire ring from HC raid though
and Big Toe gets replaced by 2-3 trinkets
isn't COS ring bis for multiple specs too?
cobalt stays bis even at 389?
Cobalt is good for hard stuff
You dont have a socket in that ring
which ring bro?
Nokhud ring
i know
a fellow male panda enjoyer 🧎🏻♂️
Isn't the TOE trinket from SBG better now ?
So its not a great choice to pick
Id just take gloves to convert em to set
And keep mplusing for socketed rings
but valor is unlimited for next week right?
do they get to a point where valor is unlimited?..
Hey I'm struggling to sim which has higher value - shield spike or frostfire belt proc
same in M+
shield spike is probably less in raid
Sim it, figure out if you will get the raid ring
since u only tank ~50% of the time
That makes sense for raid
I'm struggling to sim it because I already crafted a shield with a spike on it, have lariate, and am looking at the belt now
Cant figure out how to keep the 418 shield in the sim but remove the spike damage
hmm bloodmallet profile is Firering + COS ring on Prot
maybe Cobalt ring isnt so good after all
Cobalt absorb ring is good
Add a random 418 shield
With gear compare
Guys Do you know what is the script or mod in the plater that shows the spells cd of the adds ? like the Arcing strike here? Is the Lepantoe UI.
Ohhh, that's it. Thank you
Most likely the "Spell CDs on Nameplate - Dragonflight Season 1" Weakaura or something similar.
weakaura
i think its called nameplate CDs
melandrus ring + fire ring is bis
Yeah ty
ah ok ty
at what ilvl does it go above Cobalt?
i guess i just sim
opinions on where to spend valor, and whether or not to spend last spark on 418 weapon
get a 418 shield
would take off potion embell from ring and add fang to weapon
and get the melandrus ring to 415
not worth trying to grab shield off mythic eranog?
its what, 411?
no rubies for morshu yet
415 crit vers
418 is better
ilvl is ultra king on shield
and if you wanna upgrade more shit with valour, farm a whetstone
Is there a known amount of crit % needed to maintain 100% uptime on Wild Strikes?
my valors is going in to shield
until shield is maxxed, then weapon, thanfullly got the rgiht weapon shield jus upgradin till somethin real nice comes along
Man, M Kurog slaps
Did an hour of prog on him last night
Any thoughts people who have killed it have?
We’re transition into last phase currently. Great fight
Legitimately find myself sitting in d stance for the end of the Fire section
Might be lack of healer CDs figured out
We just winged it last night to get some data for next week
I just have 1 healer cd and a wall ready for the enrage but you need to kite a few in later transitions like earth boi as he slaps
Timing wise he was only enraging at 5% ish so not too much tanking of it required
I shield walled the fire soak while tanking add
Will have to look at some logs to see CD timings people use
You find yourself in d stance a fair bit on that fight?
got a bollocking from a rogue for not running intervene on 16 Halls. is that actually a thing?
if we are going to craft a 1 hand wep is there a specific one?
or whatever we want to craft
Works wqell on the wolf boss
It's good but not required
Would recommend in higher HOVs
and hes a rogue o.O
It's mostly useful if it goes on heals
ahhh
Esp some healers running while the bleed is out on grievous week
Can really set them behind
How come those monsters after the first boss in shadow burial grounds can oneshot
some dude said that they do it if you interrupt them
death blast?
nono
its in the name
the other ones channelling
i got flamed for stunning/interrupting them
they will hit and mind control people if you stun/kick them, otherwise they just channel and do nothing
is there any trick on reducing the damage from jade serpent kick in temple?
i just shreds me
i think you still want to hit them though, cause the add they control is linked to their threat
You shouldn't stun/interrupt them. They cast a ton if you do, both mind controls and rending voidlash which hits like a truck.
yeah we've been stacking on them AOEing but not kicking the dom
for m+ only is it worth it to go for the crafted fire proc waist when i have this ring? Or do I just replace the ring some time for higher ilvl and go with the normal crafted waist?
For both m+ and raid, you should make the frostfire belt
thanks, so the ring is THAT good?
It's free damage. A lot of it
if you can get the other ring as well then yes
eranog's ring can proc diurna's ring
Damn never thought of that
then you do low dps if you get that much
started tank 2weeks ago
Do you still take the shield ring over like CoS ring though?
yeah makes sense
cos ring is a dps increase only, not even bis stats. if you need a more "defensive" ring the 389 shield one, is as good as a 415 one
there is a vendor for this rep
you can wow head it has plenty of guides
i was using it to all my keys, swapped it this week for
its actually that good
the number of crafted items is not locked to 2 right? only the embelishments?
makes sense
for hov do u guys run spell block?
no
can i link you my charcter to see what pieces i have to change asap ?
sure
raider io ?
love this strongbox every weeek
just get a better set of trinkets
i'm so stressed to go raid dude
baby steps
its only eranog and council you have to sustain
do these 2 everyweek
till you get the trinkets
these 2 are a great start
Keurig grimtotem is actually a great name
xdd
Why? It's rly not that bad
