ok thanks - and how are most prot warriors training their ruby whelp if they use one?

sand mason
#

Also make sure your talents are right. It feels like you don’t have rend and/or blood and thunder with that dps

steep condor
#

for whch buff i mean

oak heart
#

if you're doing 20+ keys, you might wanna use defensive stance on a single boss (tjs 3rd boss for example) but it's often not needed

steep condor
whole vortex
#

You use dstance as another defensive CD when you need it

sand mason
#

Nice

whole vortex
#

Oh discord wasn't scrolled for me peepohide

steep condor
#

should i train my ruby whelp shell for haste buff?

You :
Are playing on defensive stance, dont.
Have rend and slam on your bars, remove those.
Are not mantaining shield block.
Are giving your back to the pull on multiple times.
Are clicking the abilities to cast them.
Seem to be pressing the keys from 2 to 6 and the same time everytime you want to attack.
Focus on using only shield slam, revenge and thunderclap, you dont need rend, slam.
You are pressing shield on melee range (doesnt do anything) because you are pressing keys randomly.
This is all on the first pull.

TLDR: You made me cry.

sick sentinel
#

disregard it find another

oak ivy
#

Has rend and slam bound 😢

sick sentinel
#

they offer blatantly false information that is not true (you get 10% DR from hitting avatar, whic hwas SL set bonus)

#

and they suggest to use barbaric training which fucks up your rotation for lack of better term

oak ivy
#

oh lord the details window critcake

yea fair

sick sentinel

rend on bars

#

Wait wait

A clicker?!

SLAM

sick sentinel
#

thats rend im 99%

odd tree
#

For shame sir

oak ivy
#

he also has slam bound

sick sentinel
#

OH GOD

oak heart
#

be a bit more constructive, he asked how he could do better, not to be shamed

sick sentinel
#

i didnt even see slam right beside it

left hollow
#

I use use it for extra dps 😁

sick sentinel
#

noooooo

#

noooooooooo

oak ivy
#

slam is dps loss

sick sentinel
#

NOOOOOO plz sotp

odd tree
#

Don't click abilities, fixed it

sick sentinel
#

@left hollow listen to what everyone here without flower new player says 🙂

left hollow
#

Rend for dps too

oak heart
#

thunderclap applys rend

autumn marsh
#

I mean its not all bad he COULD have whirlwind bound as well

sick sentinel
#

thunderclap automatically applies rend

dusky canopy
#

Betting he does have WW bound

autumn marsh
#

^ this

sick sentinel
#

you never need to hit rend ever

oak ivy
#

Unbind slam (It's DPS Loss, just press revenge)
Unbind rend (auto applied by Thunderclap)
Be in battle stance
Use shield block
Your keyboard has buttons on it, use them, clicking is cringe
press one button at a time
Keep your face toward the mobs

#

quick question regarding Sadana Bloodfury's Deathspike in SBG: is that blockable?

dusky canopy
#

No

zinc marten
#

Any1 has a WA thats says "Frontal on me" ?

left hollow
#

I click ravager is that fine?

dusky canopy
#

Make sure your at least in one of your defensive options for each one

autumn marsh
#

Ideally shouldnt be clicking any buttons

oak ivy
#

in an ideal world you would click nothing

sick sentinel
dusky canopy
#

I like to throw on DS* for them as well because it’s free dr basically

autumn marsh
#

Is defensive stance ever used these days?

oak heart
#

ravager is probably the worst thing to click 😛

odd tree
#

I feel dbm says if a frontal targets you, no?

thorny stone
left hollow
#

I try not to use it, Ravager doesn't give me enough damage, but if I switched to offensive it prob would

dusky canopy
#

Yes cyber

oak ivy
thorny stone
#

check the pins and get the build from there

dusky canopy
#

You literally have to use it in some scenarios

sick sentinel
#

i only get mad when ravager goes on the fucking roof

dusky canopy
#

Example TJS 3rd boss

odd tree
sick sentinel
#

that shit makes me not want to play

#

cuz its like a major cd that does dmg and gives rage

#

and its just a giant fuck you

oak ivy
autumn marsh
#

I have ravager maccrod to dump at my feet

oak ivy
#

^

sick sentinel
#

when it goes on some place it can never ever deal dmagae

dusky canopy
#

Yoooo that works

#

I gotta get on that wagon

autumn marsh
#

I have the same for ravager and spear when im fury

left hollow
#

Well, alr thanks for the criticism

oak ivy
#

/cast [@player] Ravager

#

@dusky canopy

dusky canopy
#

Thanks homie

#

I’m on it

odd tree
#

Wait, wait, wait... ravager also gives rage. Use it

#

All the time

autumn marsh
sick sentinel
#

i like being able to place ravager and other AOE spells on the ground, but you should not be able to place it on walls and ceiling and chandeliers

left hollow
#

Also I'm really struggling with taunting enemies, so I heroic throw and stack trash up and ravager, so I need to learn warrior taunt

dusky canopy
#

I use it for the rage

sick sentinel
#

or like the top of a lampost iin the street

dusky canopy
#

When you need to live the rage gen into ip is huge

oak ivy
#

thunderclap

odd tree
#

Quick tip, heroic leap resets taunt

sick sentinel
#

thats only thing i get mad about with ravager and similiar

#

total bullshit it can do thta

thorny stone
autumn marsh
dusky canopy
#

Ravager actually slaps if you can send it on enough targets

left hollow
#

and it reduced damage dealt to you

lament bramble
autumn marsh
dusky canopy
#

And if the key is high enough you also need to go into dstance

lofty widget
#

reflect 1, IV next, let healer top you off after 3rd

thorny stone
odd tree
#

This week will probably see more dstance use. Dps love making raid bosses from bolstering stacks

thorny stone
#

the biggest advice, calm down and dont slam that keyboard as much, focus on your 3 main buttons for now, shield slam, thunderclap and revenge

dusky canopy
#

^^^^

left hollow
#

Alright, I was kind of panicking with the trash pulls, so I popped cds like hell

#

I thought I was gonna die

sick sentinel
#

SS and revenge will constantly be lighting up for you

oak ivy
#

Sort of related to the SBG conversation, what notable packs are there where spell block comes in handy? I know the shadow slash skeletons in SBG, the claw something or others in TJS.. what else wwe got

sick sentinel
#

any time they light up, hit that button

autumn marsh
sick sentinel
#

thats first thing you want to do if one of them lights up

i decided not to be friends with mr dk any more again, but, i saw his UI

We lose 16% block value with 10.0.5 right ?

sick sentinel

and the buttnos he used wer as big, or bigger than that

craggy pilot

and i dont understand people using Party Style frames

2 rows at the bottom of his screen

1440p is the resolution of discerning tanks

#

Or ultrawide if you want ot be a gigachad

craggy pilot
odd tree
#

Yup, server maintenance til 3

sick sentinel
#

1440p in 2023 is the new standard

odd tree
#

Then rolling DCs till 10

sick sentinel
#

also 16 gb minimum

#

no longer 8 gb

oak echo
#

idk if someone said it but your action buttons being on the side of the screen for some of them seems very hard to manage when you have a ton of open space on the bars at the bottom

sick sentinel
#

you cant do gaming AND something else on 8gb ram with a 2020+ released game

left hollow
craggy pilot
fallen pulsar
#

The secret to ultrawides is using window management tools to perfectly split things on em. I have mine split into 4 quadrants. Main screen I play wow on isnt the ultrawide though.

sick sentinel
#

do you know about the edit mode feature @left hollow

#

this is about your UI

left hollow
autumn marsh
#

Using a 1440p horizontal for wow and vertical for browsing, mainly due to space constraints

fallen pulsar
#

Having one massively wide thing is only good for video imo

sick sentinel
#

okay, we need to teach @left hollow how to use UI editing mode

#

he doesn't know

left hollow
#

is a tank not knowing taboo?

wispy radish

Hey everyone, ive been playing around with my prot warrior and an addon called GSE that allows your rotation to be condensed to one button plus the few off CDs you might end up needing. works very well. https://youtu.be/HbH0DDvO7kM if anyone wants help setting it up for themselves message me and ill help as best I can

hardy siren
#

as a non-raiding M+ player, how good are the crafted trinkets for me as a prot warrior? looks like loads of haste but .... do they actually do well in practice?

uncut thunder
wispy radish
#

if its an upgrade get it

fallen pulsar
#

There are general guidelines to good UIs, but at the end of the day the best UI is the one you get the most information from, and thats a very subjective thing

wispy radish
#

the best UI is the one that doesnt block your sight of what crap you're standing in

fallen pulsar
#

Crap you’re standing in is information 😉

#

And being able to get that information is part of a good ui

hardy siren
#

@wispy radish is that reply directed at me? if so the issue is oppertunity cost - I could get something else instead, and im looking to workout where the crafted trinket stands relative to the other non-raid trinkets

left hollow
#

I'm glad sanguine is over idk about doing that as a prot warrior

wispy radish
#

yeah but too many people have too much clutter and it causes a lot of deaths

uneven mason
oak echo
# left hollow is a tank not knowing taboo?

idk it doesn't really matter. at the end of the day you make it look how you want to. just know it's an option to move things around if you don't like where things are or if the default UI just makes your life harder than it needs to be. my only real gripe with your UI as it as in that video is you have very important buttons out in australia compared to the rest of your bars and there's no reason to have to move your eyes around that much in combat

fallen pulsar
#

Idk, I’ve seen some incredible players that have the weirdest UI setups

wispy radish
#

@hardy siren if you're not running keys or raiding crafting is your next best bet UNNLESSS you're into PvP

oak heart
fallen pulsar
#

That seem tailored for a spider with 8 eyes instead of a person

sick sentinel
hardy siren
#

I'm running keys exclusively

fallen pulsar

At the end of the day UI setup is subjective

Damn I thought I was the ultimate prot warrior during that 3

craggy pilot
lethal warren
#

is there situation where you guys use defensive stance?

wispy radish
#

nobody plays as well as sim data, thats 100% uptime on everything perfectly, if you're doing that ingame you're using 3rd party software

fallen pulsar
#

Sims serve as good benchmarks for your optimal play

oak heart
fallen pulsar
#

So you know that you shouldnt be like 20k under your sim lol

oak ivy
uneven mason
deft mortar
#

is sim act optimal rotation or just optimal MS

#

and uptime

left hollow
#

I do a minimum of 15k

#

30k as Guardian

craggy pilot
oak ivy
#

yeah fair enough

fallen pulsar
#

Optimal everything @deft mortar its just simming you slapping 1 target without needing to move or defend. Just damage

#

Under optimal buffs and setup

deft mortar
#

cuz I've seen the spells it pops idk

fallen pulsar
#

Supposedly the sim runs the optimal prio

#

I assume it does

uneven mason
#

It does

deft mortar
#

probs does better than I do anyway kekw

fallen pulsar
#

But it also doesnt care about defending

wispy radish
#

the only reason I ever use sims is to check guildmates to see if the top spells in DETAILS ADDON is somewhat close to what it should be, if its not ill message them advice on what they could be doing better. On an individual level, try rotation priority addons like "ConRo" for a visual overlay on top of your action bars, this well help drill your prioritized rotation into your head.

deft mortar
#

neither do I omegalul

#

except a few mechanics here and there

#

like everything in temple T^T

uneven mason
#

Seeing as the folks who wrote the apl are some of the highest parsers...

fallen pulsar
#

I mean, it will definitely ignore pain less than a human probably would

deft mortar
#

Is there a 5 target sim

uneven mason
oak echo
fallen pulsar
#

Ye

deft mortar
#

I wish there was a 5 target sim + ST sim where 5 targets make up 65% of the total hp pool and ST made up 35%

oak ivy
fallen pulsar
#

But in a fight where you’re getting hit, you would also be trying to keep up IP

sick sentinel
#

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ma2tDpFMduU this is a better video of what i was trying to show, but its older

fallen pulsar
#

Whereas its just preventing rage cap in sim

craggy pilot
#

seems like he doesnt rly want to play Warrior in the end

deft mortar
#

I touch IP mostly when I am doing much higher dmg taken than I am comfy with or rage cap rly

#

Almost dont touch it

oak ivy
#

but nielsen, it'll help you drill a well prioritized rotation into your head

dense ledge
#

wouldn't a rotation helper just be mad for warrior, changing the order nonstop and making you mad?

craggy pilot
#

pressing 1 button will help you memorize the rotation?

Doing a 1 min sim for aoe is kinda silly to me. You're basically just testing your burst with a sim that short. I'd rather sim like 2-3 minutes like if I were chaining a couple packs together.

You'll sim lower with a longer sim because it's not all burst.

Yes

80% of the key is trash

Hmmm fair enough

But sims aren't about trying to find out how much DPS you should do

In Tyra week I felt like 50% of the key was boss HP ngl

They're for comparison

fallen pulsar

Yeah lol, tyra always makes me feel like the bosses take eons

warm plinth

Sims operate in a vacuum, it's generally not realistic to assume you're going to match your sim DPS

fallen pulsar

But objectively you probably spend a lot more time on trash

fallen pulsar

Yeah I always assume I’ll do around 5k less than my sim depending on the fight

You have 6 hidden "currency" to use on the trinket. 6 uses = 6 points.

I pressed it 7 but I guess I overwrote the first then

in that case it only takes 5 days or what

Yeah I mean, if you press it a 7th time on the same thing, it's not like it's gonna matter.

So what I was told, by a TC friend, is that RWS has a fucked proc rate in the first minute of combat. That's why if you look at its performance in dungeon logs, it's very lackluster because you're stopping/restarting combat a lot.

One more question, I'm running out of rage a lot and letting block drop occasionally . I end up spamming IP to 0 rage, should I try to keep rage above a certain number at all times ?

strong forum

it uses exactly 1 outburst on thunderclap on the APL

pallid quiver
#

Using SS extends Shield Block, for starters, which should carry you to the next cast of shield charge/shield block, and you shouldn't run that low on rage

#

You're probably not pressing enough revenge and too much IP

#

But we can't tell specifically without a log

warm plinth
#

Gotcha, ty

limber fable
warm plinth
limber fable
#

I can work with that

fallen pulsar
#

Barb makes you rage starved if you’re not careful

pallid quiver
#

Revenge's rage cost over time is less than the tooltip, because it has a chance to reset SS cooldown

limber fable
#

This is for keys btw. Not raid

pallid quiver
#

While IP does not

#

And yeah, Barbaric Training is not currently recommended since we don't generate enough rage in order to fuel the less efficient casts

limber fable
#

Got it. And should I keep ip flowing or just make sure I have enough ip up when big damage is coming out ?

fallen pulsar
#

Barb in keys is ok, but makes bosses a lot harder to manage rage wise imo. Since you get a lot of bleed proc rage in packs assuming you pull like 5 or more constantly

pallid quiver
#

You by and large only press IP to avoid overcapping, which is a lot more often than people think

limber fable
#

Ya that makes sense actually... I'm fine during trash but crawth was my issue

cedar trench
#

barb is "bad"

#

no play

pallid quiver
#

You should also have a decently sized IP for whenever something scary and predictable is coming your way, but that's usually naturally covered

fallen pulsar
#

Barb, is generally bad. I do think it can have it’s place tho. Just very niche

limber fable
#

Okay I'll play with it more. I think im overusing ip and not using enough revenge

fallen pulsar
#

Like, in raid I run barb for council since you get tons of rage from 4 boss bleeding

limber fable
#

What's the best way to see rage usage and waste ? Does details show it by default or do I need a plug in

fallen pulsar
#

And never get starved tbh

sudden osprey

when i started out i would just dump all rage into IP... but now that i got 4 set and am doing harder stuff i try and not waste so much

why kill explosives if u can just let a druid handle the explosives

pallid quiver

Optimally, healer should be able to get all or almost all of the explosives, depending on pull size

in practice, you will have to get 100% of them in pugs because pugs don't even know their rotation, let alone interrupts, let alone affix mechanics

Is spell block valued in RLP?

cedar trench

yes

fluid beacon

100%

#

SB is almost mandatory there

fallen pulsar

In coordinated group, healer gets most of them and you pick up the few that cant be hit by healer in time since optimally your dps does the dps. In pugs, everyone should try to help with explosive because its pugs and you cant trust shit
