hows that possible

dusk hinge
#

its working dont ask me

lyric geode
#

Does he have shield?

weary saddle
#

naked pwar is dead pwar

lyric geode
#

Also, one question.

dusk hinge
#

shield weapon neck fingers and trinkets, everything else is unequipped

lyric geode
#

Well to be honest

dusk hinge
#

his gear

lyric geode
#

Tank damage from CoS is a joke.

dusk hinge
#

sure but still he has only 200k hp and legit no armor

lyric geode
#

True true

tender cove
#

ohh you cant?

dusk hinge
#

naowh is just insane I dont know

lyric geode
dusk hinge
#

he is taking less dmg with no armor than me with 405 in 18s XD

limpid anchor
tender cove
lyric geode
#

I still dont understand why he plays his dk

limpid anchor
lyric geode
#

I want to believe that bdk is a dead spec.

oblique garnet
#

Its almost like all warrior needs is good shield

#

As long as the damage is blockable rest doesnt mean as much

lyric geode
#

I mean, given that SL bdk was a beast. To feel like karmic, i want bdks to be monk tier shit.

broken tusk
#

doesn't block + IP mitigate most physical damage anyway

ionic fern
broken tusk
#

armor is just more of a bonus

ionic fern
#

Naowh is playing with top tier DPS'ers.

#

Doubt you can pull it off with your random pugs doing 40-50k overall.

#

🙂

lyric geode
#

I did 40k overall. But it was low key with battle stance up all the time. sadge

cerulean urchin
#

brother he's still 200 ilvl thats SL lol

#

and he's living

oblique garnet
ionic fern
#

Ok, that's on me - i don't watch streams. I just thought he's playing with his usual group.

lyric geode
#

Usually I am 35k

cerulean urchin
#

no he's full pug group

dusk hinge
ionic fern
#

Well, just looking at my last +20 cos.

cerulean urchin
#

Hunter doest even have BL pet

ionic fern
#

I had 5k EHRPS.

dusk hinge
#

he will fcking time this 20+ COS what the hell x)

ionic fern
#

So atleast he chose the right dungeon for it.

oblique garnet
#

smartly skipping the one mob that can actually kill him

dusk hinge
#

I told him to do my 20+ TJS 😉 dont think he will do it hehe

limpid anchor
#

He might die to the last boss tho

dusk hinge
#

i dont know

oblique garnet
#

why

#

it does no damage

dusk hinge
#

pally can pump him, others dont take that much dmg

oblique garnet
#

all you have to do is avoid

limpid anchor
#

Idk heal depended

#

For the aoe thing

dusk hinge
#

well the pulsating dmg is not avoidable

limpid anchor
#

Actually nvm

ionic fern
#

The pulsating does 0 damage tho.

tropic cobalt
#

Where do you guys get your M+ routes from?

limpid anchor
#

Shouldn’t be an issue

limpid anchor
dusk hinge
#

with enough stamina it does no dmg, yes

oblique garnet
#

he is perma sitting on dstance

topaz leaf
oblique garnet
#

he will not die to last boss

ionic fern
#

You will also have IV for pretty much all of them.

dusk hinge
#

he depleted it x)

limpid anchor
#

What was the issue?

valid terrace
#

no kicks

limpid anchor
#

Buff war

#

We need more kicks :(

dusk hinge
#

last pack is skill check

amber siren
dusk hinge
#

spell block is legit a life safer for TJS

blazing condor
#

just send whatever you can to ensure you live

#

you dont need shit for last boss

I know I am going to loot Whetstone from COS tonight. I can feel it. You know. The Friday 13th feeling.

Thanks guys.

spell block is amazing

#

Quick question; does anything really change for tanks in Raszageth from normal to heroic?

flat jackal
#

Do the champions (the first pack in halls) use a frontal or an out rangeable tank buster?

limpid anchor
#

Only that there are 2 grps on the 3rd platform, so every tank has to tank

sudden gazelle
#

thanks!

hey guys does anyone know how to get cooldowns like Dark Claws showing on enemy nameplates?

for last pack of tjs, you can make them cast dark claw at the same time so SR >stun> SR again

sullen drift
#

should i craft shield with armor spikes or nah?

dusk hinge
#

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?

Anything important to interrup?

That's about it.

There are some interrupts but you should have them covered with the melee group

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

Cool will do the same today. If we deplete I‘ll blame healer obviously.

sterile stirrup
#

With the news about ruby Shell which training would be best for prot? The haste proc or aoe/ST dmg proc?

near notch
#

Can you range the piercing shard cast from the fury’s in azure vault?

median tulip
# topaz leaf Didn't know. That's cool.

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)

icy bane
#

Just use your stops on piercing cast

near notch
#

I don’t have enough stops for 4 fury’s I’m just curious if ranging it is an option

trim hill
#

You can LoS it but the range is pretty much too high that you can’t

near notch
#

Okay cool thank you

bright lion
#

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

Im taking the damage proc on it

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?

dull niche

No - TC spreads it

Thunderclap applies Rend

don't even need it on your bars

quaint folio
#

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?

blazing condor

do you have good wep/shield?

having a high ilvl shield is important

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

how about horn of valor tho? Huge flat versa and primary stat on use for bursts

flat sorrel

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

uneven mason
#

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

amber siren
#

If you're just wondering what does more damage, simming is an option

brittle silo
#

naaah, more like flexibility and overall usability

flat sorrel

More so was just curious of what had the best overall benefits

skipping drake ads is good idea

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

I set increasing limits to rating/ilvl every week to pug ngl

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

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.

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

40 with or wthout ittf?

without

LOL

glacial skiff

wellll fuck im so far off

uneven mason
#

40% unbuffed

jagged pier
#

its always without

glacial skiff
#

i have 19% lmao

uneven mason
#

Literally run hr and not worry about it, iirc the DPS gain in m+ isn't huge

glacial skiff
#

i really wanna find a way to fit bloodborne into my talents

slim dove
#

its garbage, dont bother.

jagged pier
#

bloodborune is 1.5% damage

wheat zenith
#

how good is that shit? How much ilvl would you want to have on trinket in order to switch? Consider only m+ trinkets

jagged pier
#

per point

uneven mason
#

What's the opportunity cost

jagged pier
#

spell block

#

or tough as nails

#

and something else

#

u need to loose

#

to go 2 poitns into bloodbourne

#

its literally pointless

uneven mason
#

Was going to say unless you're moving defensive points only bb is a DPS loss

oak echo
#

And even then those defensive losses won't be worth losing unless you're doing smol content

feral wing
#

Wait are we not defaulting ITF over HR?

rough egret
#

HR makes SB up easy

#

im 10% away from 40 :/

I hate playing with ITF personally

rough egret
#

Why?

feral wing
toxic pewter
#

in raids its fine, just feel much better with HR in m+

feral wing
#

And I don’t have problems with uptime

jagged pier
#

logs.

spark cedar
jagged pier
#

yes

#

u always run ITF in raid

#

because u arent tanking all the time

sick sentinel
#

if im only doing up to 15s 16s whats point of logging

blazing condor
#

?

#

same as the point of everything

toxic pewter
#

I use HR/battering ram build in m+ personally

blazing condor
#

analyze and improve your play

sick sentinel
#

i think enough 9f that information gunna be dead front centre

amber siren
#

Up to you if you want to log or not, but better data is helpful

spring scarab
#

I'm playing around with builds, "one handed weapon spec", how important is that? Especially if I'm going into an aoe build

blazing condor
#

its good

sick sentinel
#

i dont see a point or guiding light in logging

jagged pier
#

its a must take talent

#

u dont drop it

#

for anything

slim dove
#

... its 5% dmg and 5% leech for one talent point

#

how is this even a question keks

amber siren
#

People are new, better to ask than assume

sick sentinel
#

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

strange chasm
#

no idea how to do av 18+ on pug w/o skip avg dps 65k and we miss 1m30sec

amber siren
#

I mean if you theoretically if you play correctly you can beat any content

sick sentinel
#

so, and if im not gojng beyond that,i say whats point of log, i wont be improving much past that

amber siren
#

Because data is helpful

slim dove
#

pull harder, do more dam

#

nothing else to it

amber siren
#

I'm not arguing you should log, it's entirely up to you

#

But there's a reason logging is helpful

strange chasm
#

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.

toxic pewter
#

I timed Av 19 with pug. I don’t bother with skips either

strange chasm
#

but it is liek imp to get 3 packs

toxic pewter
#

I don’t bother with skips most of the time

#

I focus on the fundamentals

No, the boss frontal isnt supposed to hit anyone else but the one tanking it

tyra or forti ?

Skips in a pug always annoying to be honest

problem on dummy is static dont need to move ect

on m+ swaping target avoids ect and ... ye brain farts

toxic pewter
#

yah the stances are critically important to our gameplay

strange chasm
#

i run 70% in battle

#

I am quite nervous about higher keys though. Also it feels like cheating.

strange chasm
#

my biggest problem so far

#

was rlp 17 tyra

#

i did it in tiem but 1st/2nd boss is like

lyric geode
#

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

amber siren
#

Uhh

#

Definitely citation needed on that one

toxic pewter
#

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%

lyric geode
#

You pump more but dds pump less

amber siren
#

You're nearly never pulling based on what the tank can survive, it's what the party can survive

toxic pewter
#

I view defensive stance as basically a defensive cooldown

strange chasm
#

i think my best is academy i did 18 in time

toxic pewter
#

and I swap back as soon as possible

strange chasm
#

and i love tree trash

amber siren
#

There are opportunities where DS is good, no doubt, but it's not something to camp in

strange chasm
#

but still cos/sbg 19++

#

tjs on forti is omfg

#

only timer is good there

lyric geode

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.

Hi! Which is the best place to sim?

blazing condor
#

Raidbots

outer thorn
#

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

strong forum
#

30ish

outer thorn
#

might just be variance then

strong forum
#

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

strange chasm
#

1 more q if i may is prot war 4 set is a big deal ?

noble glacier
#

do you guys prefer sophic or frozen devotion?

Frozen devotion is better if you're not as good of a player

trim hill
# strange chasm tjs on forti is omfg

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)

uneven mason
#

That last trash pack is vile

#

i played more aggresive cos19 42k dps

Hop scotch the claws as well. Makes a huge difference.

ye

#

spell reflect

#

I thought you were supposed to sync the claws so that they get all deflected at the same time

sharp bone
#

on their first cast yeah but afterwards even with spellblock its pretty much ggs in higher keys

uneven mason
#

Tbh TJS makes me want to run IO

tropic tangle
#

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?

fluid shard

fluid shard
ocean bloom
#

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

fluid shard
#

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.

fluid shard
#

oh that view is neat, can you zoom out while viewing it that way

uneven mason
autumn urchin
#

if boss is on farm ip uptime is w.e. if he wants to push dmg

weary idol
#

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

looking at ip uptime =/= what you are saying

True

however yes

both

But IP should be almost 100%

also ur 2 set uptime is kinda low

@fluid shard

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

autumn urchin

make a WA for it somewhere on ur screen if u dont already have one

yes, you overcapped 14 rage in that SS

which is good okayge

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

lofty widget
#

we swapped at 4 and it was np

fluid shard
#

with the nerfs you can tank 5 and it's still ok so not sure what is getting you slapped

limpid anchor
#

Just taunt on add spawn

#

You can’t really die to the slam

untold crow
#

Can you remove an embellishment from a crafted item?

fluid shard
#

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

rugged mural
#

Ok, not sure what happened then. Other tank was a pally and died twice to Zephyr Slam. L2P issue maybe

Does 2p set change our prio´s? Let´s say I´m not rage capped and have bot SS and revenge available.

swift siren

Do I prio revenge to keep 2p up?

#

I´d think not

craggy pilot
#

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?

if you want to only proc haste, you should gem with haste as the second lower stat

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.

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

astral crystal
#

You can dodge both

And in pugs can you really expect the tank to pull that off? I dunno.

astral crystal

Just back step on fast

lyric geode

#

Cast

mossy goblet
#

So should my melee be watching for frontal on breach armor?

astral crystal
#

Hew is a cone though

#

Small cone

lyric geode
#

We have a say in Greece. Either the boat sails wrong or the wing blows wrong.

tropic tangle
#

Can't remember if Breach is frontal cone, but Mortal Hew is what will slap your melee if they're stacking on you

lyric geode
mossy goblet
#

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?

gritty glen
#

Mortal Hew is a cleave. Breach Armor is a single target debuff.

feral wing
#

Is breach armor a fervent?

astral crystal
#

A what

lyric geode
#

Breach armor doesnt affect your dds any way.

blazing condor
#

fervent strike

tropic tangle
#

hmmmm, it may be?

feral wing
#

I thought I spelled it wrong

tropic tangle
#

fervent = if tank is out of range, it hits someone in range

blazing condor
#

which mob does it?

lyric geode
blazing condor
#

in HoV?

lyric geode
#

Yes

blazing condor

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

is it a frontal ?

it doesnt say ive lsot threat

No idea mate

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?

What dungeon you guys playing spell block on? TJS, AV, RLP, NO, SBG?

frosty mango
pulsar sedge
#

You can technically find a use for it on every dung but like.. NO?

toxic pewter
#

I love spell block

unkempt palm
#

@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

toxic pewter
#

At high levels it helps smooth out a lot of magic damage

pulsar sedge
#

I dont think you are loosing a ton by swapping and loosing Tough as nails

toxic pewter
#

Yeah that’s the way I see. Don’t get me wrong I like tough as nails

#

But spell block is really good

unkempt palm
#

Ok so far I’m seeing similar thoughts to me then

sick sentinel
#

do you guys under pull first 2 bosses of TJS as well on fortified vs tyranical week?

pulsar sedge
#

Everytime i swap it off.. Im going "Damn, would be nice to have Spell block up to mitigate that dmg"

sick sentinel
#

still a pretty easy key level but i wiped use on a 12 rlp to pulling 3 mobs too many at start

toxic pewter
unkempt palm
#

Yeah I kinda prefer spell block and just stay in bstance

toxic pewter
#

Can los them but i find they do a lot of dam

sick sentinel
#

so im having slight doubts about what is on my current routes

unkempt palm
#

@toxic pewter I think most of that damage is the small mobs using splash

pulsar sedge
#

Cant really mess up TotJS tho

toxic pewter
#

Yah true

pulsar sedge
#

Only thing i see people skipping is the panda bros

toxic pewter
#

Do you guys pull both water elementals at first full

sick sentinel
#

see, without knowing, i would because cooldowns

unkempt palm
gaunt oar
#

Missive for Lariat?

#

haste/vers?

pulsar sedge
#

I tend to single pull, but i just pug. They are kinda derpa on avoiding the aoe lol

toxic pewter
#

Yah exactly same

pulsar sedge
#

Ill tank right on a corner to make it ez pz.. they still take it to the face lol

sick sentinel
#

i would pull 2 water guys togethger

#

dead start of tjs

toxic pewter
sick sentinel
#

on an average keyt

trim hill
#

In my experience people always fuck up the los so not worth

pulsar sedge
#

If i had a good group, maybe. But the dmg is huge if people arent LoS the pops

trim hill
#

You don’t need to do anything crazy to time tjs

toxic pewter
#

Yah it’s risky

trim hill
#

Unlike HoV or AV

limpid anchor
#

On +20 it’s alright to heal through it on fortified

toxic pewter
#

spell block in hov is really good too in my opinion

sick sentinel
#

i feel alot better this morning so far

pulsar sedge
#

When in doubt with pugs, let them zug zug and pull to where they can just kick and kill

limpid anchor
#

But heal won’t be happy

sick sentinel
#

hopefully key isn't too rough

All the casters

usually casters hit your dds

sick sentinel
#

there is a bunch of lightning dudes before first boss

toxic pewter
#

Yeah I mean lots of magic damage in there

#

I wonder if spell block helps against the dragon I don’t even know

pulsar sedge
#

Dunno, i always pop it there anyways ;D

toxic pewter
#

Same

#

I feel like it helps

pulsar sedge
#

No magic after dragoon anyways

#

dragon*

trim hill
#

I don’t think the 2 lightning dudes ever target the tank before first boss

pulsar sedge
#

Idk, i pop it when i do the triple at the start

#

That dragon is mean ;D

trim hill
#

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

brave jungle
#

Is there a document or similar that says when it is suggested to run SB and when to run Intervene? Please @ me 🙂

tropic tangle
toxic pewter
#

Just checked lightning breath is blockable

#

That alone it’s worth in my opinion

#

That dragon pull can go badly

pulsar sedge
#

I picked up intervene at the start of the xp, and honestly.. I always find a use for it shrug

toxic pewter
#

Yah I never use it but I’d be down to try interven again

blazing condor
#

intervene big qol

toxic pewter
#

So much damage going out

#

It actually makes sense

pulsar sedge
#

Any time you have ranged, it is usefull

#

Anytime your dps zug zug the thundering till last 2 sec, its useful

#

Hov.. Useful

warm plinth
toxic pewter
#

Yes

brave jungle
#

So what do I remove to take intervene?

minor aurora
#

Yeah and the fact you can just block the wolf damage in HoV is insane

Or drop the fear

lyric geode

#

Does the charge / intervene macro still work

pulsar sedge
#

Not if you intervene the target @lyric geode

#showtooltip charge

Thats the one i use

pulsar sedge
#

Yupp

craggy pilot
#

but it will always Shield Charge first

#

which sounds dumb

pulsar sedge
#

Not really. You want to use shield charge on cd?

tawny kiln
#

you want to charge first if you're out of range

craggy pilot
#

but you also wanna use Charge on CD

#

i mean when you get in range after Shield Charge, you cant Charge

tawny kiln
#

so that you start the fight with more rage

warm plinth
#

Oh good this conversation again

blazing condor
pulsar sedge
#

To each their own. Idc. He asked if the old macro worked.

minor aurora
#

Just take out shield charge then and use it when you feel like it

plush pagoda
#

Shield block is nice

minor aurora
#

If you don't want shield charge first

#

Ez pz

pulsar sedge
#

Or if you are nit picky about it, just swap shield charge to second? Then it will prio charge first, shield charge second

minor aurora

Voila

Is there a haste cap/breakpoint?

change stats

and which tier piece is the worst for us?

If i ever could steal an ability from someone.. I want grip ;D

is it helmet? cus of the high mastery?

What’s the % of stats haste and vers should I be going for for m+

prisma crane
craggy pilot
prisma crane
#

cuz helm still has haste right?

craggy pilot
#

was wondering to pick Gloves 418 from vault for Tier

prisma crane
#

cant recall

craggy pilot
#

helm has low haste high mastery

#

gloves is crit + mastery

#

high crit low mastery

prisma crane
#

tbh if the gloves are a bigger upgrade id just go that direction

amber siren
#

More stats is better stats than going for a specific one

prisma crane
#

yea but ilvl

craggy pilot
#

ye

#

its that vs 421 ring

#

and rings dont give main stat

#

so probably better to take Gloves

prisma crane
#

which ring?

alpine solar
#

is it worth to craft shield?

prisma crane
#

though honestly if not AA ring just do the gloves

prisma crane
craggy pilot
prisma crane
#

idk it

craggy pilot
#

haste vers

alpine solar
#

@prisma crane fair haha sorry so im only 385 on this alt

craggy pilot
alpine solar
#

372 shield atm

craggy pilot
#

i haqve 398 COS ring

prisma crane
#

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

prisma crane
alpine solar
#

im debating farming offensive sword and making shield or just making wep and shield

#

atm only crafted i have are lariat and vers wrist

plain turtle
#

for M+ do you guys tank with sophic or frozen devotion?

torn pebble
plain turtle
#

wouldn't shield be more impactful for prot than a 1h weapon?

torn pebble
#

Yeh, but with 2 sparks, do both

#

As he’s only crafted wrist and neck

plain turtle
#

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

craggy pilot
#

now just to figure out my valor 😄

plain turtle
#

oof yeah figuring out valor is my biggest issue right now

#

burning writ for weapon?

tropic tangle
#

yeah, at least get a rank 2 sophic or frozen

#

unless you're holding off to craft a 418?

graceful kite
plain turtle
craggy pilot
#

so i have 2/3 only 😄

fallen apex
#

Seeing that magnificent panda makes me want to dust off mine that's been sitting idle since Throne of Thunder

tropic tangle
#

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.

plain turtle
#

interesting

tropic tangle
#

can also sim yourself

craggy pilot
#

@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

plain turtle
#

isn't COS ring bis for multiple specs too?

craggy pilot
#

for Arms ye i guess

#

but for Prot it isnt i think?

#

isnt BIS Cobalt + Fire?

plain turtle
#

cobalt stays bis even at 389?

craggy pilot
#

think so

#

atleast what i heard

graceful kite
#

Cobalt is good for hard stuff

craggy pilot
#

cobalt is sick for Prot

#

as its just flat dmg

graceful kite
craggy pilot
#

?

graceful kite
#

What

#

Socket is worth a lot on rings

craggy pilot
#

which ring bro?

graceful kite
#

Nokhud ring

i know

craggy pilot

but i have no rings with socket?

So its not a great choice to pick

i can put socket in it

if i get unlucky vault

it has leech though

Id just take gloves to convert em to set

craggy pilot

i alrdy took gloves 😄

#

im talking valor upgrade now

ring or trinket

graceful kite
#

And keep mplusing for socketed rings

craggy pilot
#

but valor is unlimited for next week right?

graceful kite
#

Not sure about that

#

Unlikely

plain turtle
#

do they get to a point where valor is unlimited?..

craggy pilot
#

feel like i just read it the other day

#

that valor will uncap next reset

hard island
#

Hey I'm struggling to sim which has higher value - shield spike or frostfire belt proc

craggy pilot
#

shield spike is probably less in raid

graceful kite
#

Sim it, figure out if you will get the raid ring

craggy pilot
#

since u only tank ~50% of the time

hard island
#

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

craggy pilot
#

hmm bloodmallet profile is Firering + COS ring on Prot

#

maybe Cobalt ring isnt so good after all

graceful kite
#

Cobalt absorb ring is good

graceful kite

With gear compare

then you do low dps if you get that much

i'm 390

and not that good

it should do about 2 to 3% max

ring+ belt

rose oar
#

started tank 2weeks ago

oak echo
#

Do you still take the shield ring over like CoS ring though?

spice radish
#

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
