Maybe they'll shoot for the moon and plus up some classic stuff lol
spires was my most hated by far. those archers such a pain
I think MOP with big changes is the furthest they'll go
at this stage
if they give some old old ones the uldaman treatment i could see it
MYTHIC+ DEADMINES
I'd do it
give me stonecore.
I'd do that all day
BREAK UPON MY BODY
thing about cata dungs is there isnt much going on
they'd have to put a lot of effort into making new stuff
i mean it does compared to some Cata ones LUL
Dire friggin Maul π
M+ Deadmines shudders
halls of origination was amazing
@solar shadow Hi Mr. Whirlwind
Hello
How is the warrior coming
Yea i agree, i think Vortex with some DF dung work would be insanely fun
How we doing today
I'm good, my team won 
though ZA mega dungeon would be...neat maybe
Iβve been on vacation so on a break atm
Aww
Will get back to it after the 6th
Managed to get a +20 in on my pre evoker with a MacBook trackpad so proud of that
Canβt miss a vault you know
Hell yeah, I did my first 20 this week on my rogue
It wasn't pretty
Weekly no leaver +20 Nokhud
Someone in blood channel said that blood dk is more engaging to play than prot warr
Im lost for words
Depends on your definition of engaging I guess. There's definitely more to worry about on a Blood DK
But warrior is just fun. The buttons feel better to press and are just thematically more exciting than blood DK's imo.
shield slam lights up, dopamine is created
SLAM THAT BUTTON AND FEEL THE EUPHORIA
shield slam lights up 3 times in a row, dopamine is exploding
shield slam crits for 200k? erect.
uncapped AoE? Avatar + Thunderclap? Out DPS everyone?
r a v a g e r
spinning and winning
I'm a simple man. I like slamming things with my shield and telling damage that it doesn't get to happen.
shield charge also just sounds so good and crunchy
Like I just squashed someone and broke all their bones.
Freight train mode: activated
Yeah all it took is for me to hear the name of that talent and I was like class fantasy activated
i hate inspiring so fucking much holy shit tilted
idk, I also find proactive tanking more fun than reactive tanking. Planning my defensives before taking damage feels more satisfying than getting punched in the face and needing to quickly heal it all back
There's something simple and clean about just being the good ol fashion sword-n-board fighter, but in the most badass way possible
I assume you mean bolstering
Blood dk being a reactionary tank is a misconception tbf. If anything they're more proactive than we are.
are they? I guess I'm still living on the old blood
Yeah, I came into this expansion off a ret main in SL, decided I wanted to try my hand at tanking for the first time since Legion and remembered that I really dislike Pally tanking compared to Warrior
It used to basically be, don't get one shot and then death strike back to full hp
That's the blood I remember from last time I played it
You could be godlike, but your health bar was a ping pong match
They were more reactionary when they were more resource starved
DS was basically rotational to prevent capping in S3/S4, and DF BDK has a lot more resources and a cheaper DS than times previous to S3
people like double shield wall for jade or is it spell block?
They don't really compete
You should take Spell Block there though.
Tons of useful spell blocks
Mostly just Dark Claws and stuff, and low target counts dslightly devalues tough as nails
SB more or less dramatically simplifies the last pack
Double shield wall is definitely a choice you can make for 3rd boss but, idk hasn't felt necessary
Only so much you can do on that boss, at some point your healer just has to juice
I typically only eat one or two of those straight up before Jade Dragon comes out.
Lots of variations on p2 timing based on group cds, key level and lust timing
On the 22s I did a while ago I'd usually have to eat 4-5
I only consider them reactionary insofar as their main mitigation tool (the closest equivalent to Shield Block) works in reaction to health going down, even if you're (at least should) planning its biggest uses or if it just gets full sent
Healer DPS low for AA but probably not the issue, should be closer to 35-45k
Must be pathing/wipes?
The largest limiter on pulling big after bird is axes
I recommend Vex β> Bird β> Tree, lusts on Bridge, bird boss or itβs trash & final boss where you pull the door pack into the boss
i gotta get ksm, even have my durrent transmog based around when i get that mount
obviously kicks can't get off, but you want to really use stops on severing slice
So thats one thing I'd change in your automarker
I personally brong both double shield wall and spell block for Temple; I get more use on average out of two back to back shield walls than I do more frequent shield walls in there. Like, I don't really need shield wall for the pack that has the single dark claw sha pack before 3rd boss, but it can be nice to have two shield walls in case DPS things happen for the pack with both a haunting and dark claw
Mark the axes, have someone sit on an axe, per axe
i have never ran 2x sw
Yeah, I like double shield wall for temple
I kinda like it on Crawth too in AA, but I don't know if it's worth taking just for that fight
Hello it says my character parse for m+ is 87.5 best perf avg on Warcraft logs. what does this mean?
Best perf avg means it's averaging your best parse from each dungeon. But parses in general for M+ are basically worth nothing because they are based on key level.
Meaning I could do half your DPS but do a key level higher than you and I would parse higher for that dungeon

Anyone know a way to get the tuskarr tackleboxes off the minimap?
Invent time machine, dont hit renown 27
yeah, if i had only known
what to craft question ... I"m 390ish gear, can craft a couple 405, one 418 next week, will be couple weeks before next 418. Should i craft neck (lariot) or weapon at 418, the other at 405? My sheild is 402 now. Or is shield bigger prio than neck or weap?? bascially, do I want neck or weapon 418 first ?
shield to 418 first
Shield>weapon>other should be your upgrade order. Lariat is insignificant compared to those.
ok, guide didn't mention shield, had lariat first. so shield before weapon even?
Yes
Hey mythic plus welp Shellers what build are you running on ur trink?
You shouldn't use whelp shell in mythic+
Oh? Even if it 415?
It's bugged currently. It has a very low proc rate in the first minute or so of combat. So it procs half as much as it should in keys.
Ahhh
It's not trash but it's very low-mid of the pack
Would be quite a bit better if they fixed it
can you recraft from 402 straight to 418? or is skill req too unreasonable
Yes you can
The skill requirement isn't any different than just making it 418 to begin with as far as I'm aware.
Hmm I wonder what trink I should run with my current build
k ty
Depends on what you have available
hm, probably all-totem and ruby or all-totem and deco
Or all-totem and boon if you're feeling really adventurous
dope dope ive been running ruby and deco so far. I wonder if i should build it off ST and go haste or heals
what buff you get for AA as prot?
Haste
tyty
Sad moments.. 19HOV healer fake DC after fenryrβ¦ in 18HOV hyrja bugged and jumped back to the platformβ¦ π¦ back to 17 π

π¦
@ionic fern hi ily
I wanna go home 
Same..and i just got to work.
oof
RIP cobalt leveling
Timewalking seems pretty good
Friend was getting ~88k per dungeon which is like 10 quests or something
just from completion
Can confirm tw spam is fast provided you get a tank that knows what's up
And the reason was that i was going too fast.
My 411 prot warr timed some big-ish keys today 

I have 21 NO and 22 vault vods, yeah
I'm actually proud of myself on the 22 temple last pull. I stood still and actually tanked them 
What a gamer
I still don't have 4p, but that doesn't add damage so I'm okay about that for awhile
INto?
It's solid in AoE tbh.
Stop Using Barbaric Training 
Well it's just free ignore pain, yeah?
Ya.
Yeah, I didn't bother doing heroic to get 4p. I'll get it eventually
Don't upload the Nokhud one to YT please. We don't want SR to get fixed there.

:kekw
It was actually my third highest dmg done 
Just cut half the dung out
Just have technical difficulties on last boss
Woops sorry guys footage corrupted sorry
Ya, it's hilarious.
My overall in the 22 NO, I don't have good aoe trinkets yet so could be higher
Trying to get dathea boon
I gave up on boon after a while. π¦
It has some weird things going on when i boon and then the enemies go FURTHER away from me or re-position behind me.
Yeah, I'm using haste idol from JC and whetstone
No idea why.
tfw Deswind is doing higher DPS on pwar than I do on my rogue

Where's that damage breakdown?
Uh, I didn't record the part where I hovered over it to look... so I don't have it

It's like thunder clap, shield slam, spell reflect or something. Don't quite recall
Both are good

Arms better on bigger aoe

I think arms is better overall, but I could be bias because arms owns
Nope, arms is pretty gcd locked
And you thunderclap and ignore pain on ST... so it's basically prot
Uh, maybe i should try it.
I tried it in SL and it felt so sluggish,.
Battlelord build is pretty locked, yeah
Any arms m+ builds please? 
Pretty sure you can make a mortal strike macro but have the shield slam icon... literally can't tell the difference 
I guess i can just poke Arms channel. but dps channels are full of weird people.
π
Good. Then i can just re-do my SS "boink" sound macro into the Mortal Strike one.,
https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/warrior/arms/DAPAURUUUEZRQRpRQVBAOVVBRURFBUWRVAVDREQ
I like this one
Thanks.
Can pick up shockwave, if your group needs more aoe stuns
If you need stuns, you need stuns. But yeah, it's always about trading dmg for utility
Which reminds me.
Doing AV on a VDH was a nightmare with the route i usually do..i'm so used to being able to solo stun most of the Fury's Piercing Shards..
Tried it on a VDH and died almost instantly..no stuns.

I'm spoiled with spell block
Oh, ya. That's broken.
I attempted a 23 first pull, and lived like 3 volleys with spell block
Then I play BDK

Actually have to LoS as some other tanks. π¦
Luckily you can LoS most of those packs.
Only the platform one might be spicy.
Oh, I also lived a 6 bolstered drake lightning breath in a 21 hov, but that's spell block + time dilation 
I dunno if I needed dilate, but didn't want to risk

Meanwhile, my 17 NO:
My health actually didn't move
That's pretty good 
You did 72K... I'm not even 50k
Helps if your group are blasters too. Killing packs fast enough where you have avatar+demo ready for every pull is nice
Jeah, it's even more amazing when Hyrja does her beam and you crit block with Spell Block mitigating pretty much 100% of the damage.

You guys got any tips for jade ( 3 boss p2 ) I did a 20 + and got rect from the healing debuff.
As long as you time keys. I play pretty aggressive/greedy... so I sometimes floorpov
In pins
You wanna play double shield wall and spell block and then rotate your CDs. Check the pins
If you wanna play it real safe tell your team to hold BL and dps CDs for phase 2, so you get less tank busters
Yea, we did +1 it. Only 4 deaths total. 3 of which were during a totem pull in 2nd boss area. Just not enough kicks went out
Ty πͺ I try that
Had 57.5K CPM, increase from usuall

Battle stance for first 25%, then went defensive.
I haven't hit a key level high enough where I'd sit in defensive majority of the time. I'll probably feel it in 23+ for sure though. I was watching Naowh attempt 25-26 HoV and he just kinda sat in dstance for a lot of the pulls.
I believe I went dstance after getting chonked a bit. Then really jus forgot to switch back.
Also was drinking a heavy double IPA during the key, Had to slap myself last boss, "ok, focus up"
23 is still in the realm of "i'll use dstance for only certain pulls/boss mechanics".
E.g RLP first pulls / TJS some pulls etc.
If I get chunked, my first response is to last stand+impending victory. I use dstance more as a pre-plan mini shield wall
Yeah, certain pulls definitely dstance
But ideally, I'll have a general cd plan for the scary pulls that if I die unexpectedly it's just misplay on my end.
Talking of HoV...i'd be so happy if i got into a HoV key where a melee diddn't get frontaled.

Tell me about it... melee in my group love to dps 90 degrees to my left or right, instead of just directly behind the pack

Idk if they are monging or is it a reality but sometimes the bodies legit ARE behind the packs and they get frontaled.
I got no idea how.
Some mobs have their frontal attack hitboxes start from inside their model
so they might be way too close
Ya, probably.
It's our Feral who mostly gets slapped.
It's such a time waste tho. π¦
Death time..running back time..if it's a bigger pull with thunder boys + 2 mystics then you're missing interrupts...
I've seen monks that play skyreach just zip right into the model and get frontaled

I'm just trying to tank and make sure I don't die 
I facetanked the first pull... I ain't moving 

I think the only times i've died to the first pull is when i get Thundering stunned..which has happened wayyyy too often.
I need revenge to hit everything, tough as nails to proc as much as possible, can't move
I'm running Spell Block in every dungeon right now. 
Mostly because i'm too lazy to swap out of it.
I usually only run it in temple, AV and sometimes HoV if I feel scared. Didn't find much uses on the other dungeons
Maybe academy? For manafiend surges if they don't get kicked
I got mortal hewed the other day as our tank was pulling a pack out of the hall and I was very obviously behind the pack
True, I like tough as nails in there though. Does quite a bit I think
Ya.
Sometimes it just hates people I guess
Yeah, I can't tell if fervent strike mechanics exist in halls. I got mauled by a bear as a dps where I had 0 aggro
So I suspect they'll hit nearest
rending claw is a frontal, like mortal hew
^
We had a DPS die to that as well.
Never knew it before.
π
But i think they only cast it if the tank is "near enough" ?
Honestly frontals shouldn't exist... unless it has cleave in the name of it. Change my mind
yeah, both the rending claw and the armor crunch are both just backpedals
just like power attack, breach armor, mortal hew
lotta that crap in halls
Never backpedal, just tank 
And i recently discovered that i can just back pedal the Nokhud Arcing Strike's as well.
Feel a bit shame about that one.
π
My warr probably gonna hit 3k io before my dk 
Oh, that's probably one of the few mechanics I do backpedal
That mechanic humbled me on a 23 attempt

I actually learned i can do it by playing VDH cause i got blasted by it.
A lot of things i've learned i can outrange by playing VDH..
Because i can't facetank for shit.

oof
I don't have a vod, but 1 arcing strike on a 23 did like 60% of my health in bstance... and I took two at once and went 100-0 
Can confirm that the same will happen on a +22 when they are both bolstered.

Are you tanking on BDK?
I've seen them do fairly well in keys tbh.
I did early in the season... then I started hating it 
So geared my warr and it's already gonna have more io than my dk after I get tyran keys in
I also just do more damage as prot warr
But it will spoil you when it comes to facetanking.
I pugged a 20 academy for fun trying to do as much dmg as possible

no lust even

I also don't have eye of skovald on my DK either
I gave up farming that
Do I run whetsone + boon for max aoe? Or do I just run boon + stat stick? 
grieftorch then aim at ppl using boon


I would like to see the vod to this π
If you have grieftorch and you don't have that WA then what are you even doing with your life

I have a vod on a 21 coming out, not quite as good as the 20 in terms of dmg though. The 20 was scuffed because people died so I end up dps'ing most of the pulls which propped up my overall more than it should have 
Okay ππ
Ye im not so sure its possible anymore
I'm still missing like eye of skovald... and my stats are haste/mast, which I dunno is bis for damage as blood
Since I main unholy
I'd imagine something like crit/vers or something
Mastery at least is pretty big iirc
I figured since bdk dmg breakdown is basically trinkets, vers is good. But, yeah honestly I dunno
Once I get extra sparks, I'll redo my gear for blood
Wtf warrior damage broken, I did 65k as a bdk playing sweaty in +20 AA
It's not that warri dmg is broken, it's that bdk dmg is that bad
And im 414 4set with whetstone/dogshit rumbling ruby
Ruby is good for AA padding
I've done over 70k as bdk in a 20 academy before, but I play like no purg... full dmg talents, potting on cooldown and pulling aggressively big 
Ruby does like 2.5% overall
I mean bdk only has 1 talent build tbf
This week can be rough for big pulls
Well, I just play w/e gives me dmg... I don't talent into purg
And we had bad dps so shit died long long
So bloodworms, bloodshot, heartrender or w/e the DS dmg proc is
Yes, that's the build
And just 1 point into red thirst
I know the purg build is losing heartbreaker to pick up foul bulwark (just to move down) and purg
I think mastery is strong bc of this
But rp gen feels like molasses without it for me
Mastery is your biggest offensive stat cuz of bloodshot ye
Depends on how you look at it, bdk loves all secondary stats. For me atm crit/vers sims highest
I suppose so, yeah. But since it applies on the death strike itself doesn't feel too bad to upkeep blood shield. I suppose healing breakdown is kinda 1:1 to uptime. Bloodshield is generally like 55%~ or so of my healing
Stupid question but what does blocking do eg how much does it decrease damage from a hit by
I'm not at my PC rn and yeah the calculation if poss
Just started tanking on warr alt
BlockDR=BlockAmount/(BlockAmount+K)
Level 70 Base/open world: 11766.000 (Level 70 Armor mitigation constants (K-values))
Level 70 M0/M+: 12824.94 (ExpectedStatModID: 216; ArmorConstMod: 1.09)
Vault of the Incarnates LFR: 13083.792 (ExpectedStatModID: 212; ArmorConstMod: 1.112)
Vault of the Incarnates Normal: 14025.072 (ExpectedStatModID: 213; ArmorConstMod: 1.192)
Vault of the Incarnates Heroic: 15084.012 (ExpectedStatModID: 214; ArmorConstMod: 1.282)
Vault of the Incarnates Mythic: 16284.144 (ExpectedStatModID: 215; ArmorConstMod: 1.384)

The BlockAmount in that calculation is 2.5*ShieldArmor
When is double wall needed in keys? I've seen warriors run 2 charges in like 23-24+ but I dunno... I'm still progging into 22-23s. Don't feel like it's necessary yet? Maybe I need to pull bigger 
healed when a friend tanked HoV and he was one tapped by breach armor while just having 1 stack of it. i mean you should be able to have 1 stack or?
Most ppl donβt run double wall unless you plan for it
The talent it competes with is generally better
Think it's more for certain bosses than a key level. And I think a lot of it is more erring on the side of caution than absolutely necessary
Lot of these dudes are rerollers after all
I don't think
Because double wall means you get less uses throughout the dungeon
A single key
Hmm, which boss? I can't think of many where I'd contemplate it.
Lot of people I've seen in here running it for Crawth, Flameheart, and Blazehoof because they want to feel safer.
yeah
Double wall is only good if you have a short encounter that requires say 2-3 usages in a very very tight window
Well, Flameheart maybe okay. But the other two you're actually losing uses
I've done 23 academy attempts, and didn't feel the need for a 2nd charge of shield wall. 1 min cd of it is generally enough to just rotate along with healer externals
Yes
If DPS are holding CDs and you're lusting p2 flameheart it's probably fine to use it there
Wall just wins in any non-panic scenario
I personally do it 3rd tjs cause pug canβt wait with cds for p2
But yeah 1 min CD wall is just so good 
You can do Sw-spellB-SpellB-LS+Demo-SW
You can almost just rotate wall - healer external - wall - external, on some bosses. If anything, dstance+demo covers a lot of stuff
If you're quicker, you can do SW for the 4th
Now I feel dumb that I use spellB only for one π€£
Yeah she casts them like ~16 seconds apart so it should cover 2 in a row
Good to know π
I watch some warrs take double wall for first boss smbg in like 24-25s... but I don't see it. Dunno
Yeah was actually crazy to see how small Andys dmg intake on crawth on 25 was
He only had to eat like 1 or 2 bleeds naked
Everything else had any CD or cleanse up
evoker literally godsend for that fight and RLP 2nd boss
Yeah, I generally have no issues with Crawth whatsoever. Tyran might feel different though, but I'll get to that point
What a gamer
Maybe it was 4 idk
4 still pretty good lol
But it felt like 2minutes
I'll eventually go dwarf on my warr. My friends bullied me and picked my race when I went back horde. Now I'm vulpera (was goblin just 2 weeks ago) 
lol
Okay it was 1min 20sec without a healer
The problem really is that we have too many good races for warrior
It's just too hard to pick
I wanna be all of them
I healed someone with my bag of tricks for like 71k crit 
wow lol
I'm a healer now
ngl I was really bad about using that when I was vulpera
I'm troll currently (I was fury for the last expansion)
Best thing ever tbh
Just being able to safe someone with it
But
Yeah, it's pretty good. Especially scaling with ap
Mouseover macro for bag of tricks and boom
Super satisfying Button to snipe heal your party member
If LF draenei racial still giga for aoe? I remember it being kinda strong.
It was my 2nd most damage taken ability on a +22 Tyrannical.
55% were melees..14.9% was the Crawth bleed..The next one was 4% from some mobs.
π
Probably less strong than it has been in the past since you don't really do massive pulls this expansion. I think it's main claim to fame was that it's uncapped
π 19 fort with a 2% wipe on crawth
Learn to mitigate.

Jk, we had a Evoker so it was pretty chill.
I lowkey love Evokers.
I hate pug evokers
Oh, je..pug ones can suck one.
Cuz 99% of them suck
Mine's on Discord with me.
All of my evoker experience is this "can't outheal grievous - wipe"
Iβm drunk in the mountains. Anyone want a good take on prot warriors
This π
Not seen one of those yet
Ah yes
the DPS spec where you nap in between spells
Devastation might be the fucking death of me on my leveling challenge
Look impressive on huge pulls early on with their mastery
It's so fucking boring
Be curious to see at higher levels but probably not the worst out there
Jeh, they are pretty "fine".
Not on the level of a good spriest/outlaw tho.
Also, fuck spriest.
Holy crap how much DPS.
I'm surprised i haven't seen more of them.
Cuz they only deal that dmg since last week
Massive ones
Never Seen a good one even if they βgoodβ
Yeah they got giga buffed. You'll probably start seeing some shit ones before long
Because they do require a brain to play
Yeh spriest is so juiced right now
the spriest

Spriest in Method. Has been there forever (pre-Josh gate too)
Ah, i don't really follow such things.
I know most of the tanks but the DPS'er/Healer names mean nothing to me.
π
oh he's not in method anymore
Was gonna say, think he left pre DF
Priest buffs in 10.0.5 are huge though. Disc actually feels good to play in m+ for the first time ever.
Zaelia literally started playing disc in 24/25 immediately
bars actually move when buttons get pressed. It's magical.
Previously the group just slowly withered away in a race against the priests mana bar.
does this mean the amount blocked varies by content type?
Yes
You block less dmg in a mythic raid than in m+
That has always been the case
The same thing applies to armor and stagger
I'm quite new to warrior but i've seen some stuff high level warriors do and I was wondering why:
- not pressing shield charge (like keeping it for almost the whole cd of the spell)
- doing like avatar and ravager and after roar + demo shout
Is that intended or its the way of playing it?
so the good is pressing avatar > ravager > roar and demo? and when is it good to press shield charge
Avatar+ravager>demo>roar>sc
That's the optimal order
And just send everything on CD
Unless the pack is dying in less than 10 seconds
yeah im the 20s range on warrior so nothing is dying quickly
yeah im playing thunderlord as it feels quite good to have avatar and demo on cd, then rotate the second with ravager and roar
although i've seen a lot of people play without thunderlord
Cuz it's a dmg loss
I prefer Battering Ram over Thunderlord. Makes things smoother because Demo always lines up with Shield Charge and every other Demo lines up with TR and Ravager. It's more damage too.
also i find ppl that play with TLs tend to not send demo on CD
ive had more casts of demo than ppl running TLs
some how
Yeah, same.
Ye, lots of people just waste thunderlords
People don't realize just how short the CD becomes and they lose track and don't press it
thunderlord is a damage loss?
Yeah, assuming you take Battering Ram in its place
You also desync demo shout from your offensive CDs
If you use demo shout on CD
But if you don't use demoshout on CD with TL
What's the point of TL, ykno
yerp
yeah maybe because i'm not that comfortable with warrior, coming from dk, but i use TL for defensive purpose sometimes just to get some rage for IP
Are you doing what my nickname says not to
no im not using barbaric
i'm just using TL instead of battering and using last stand talent instead of punish, the rest is just default
i'm barely touching the left side of the tree
i take it on tyrannical weeks usually
Idk why you wouldn't want it perma
can swap to it, was just primarily using the last stand talent
but
more defensive i guess
ah thats because of spell block, forgot that thats there
but i started dropping that as well, apart from jade
so basically this - https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/warrior/protection/DAPAURUUUkRRERpFRRBBNVUVEVFVFUYVUQCQB with swapping tough as nails for punish
but as i said, i'm not that comfortable with warrior so i might be misunderstanding stuff
so just drop that and run punish?
yes
aight, thank you, appreciated
Bolster is nice for raids when ran with ITF. Otherwise meh
no
u dont need to have shield block up all the time in raid
only when your tanking
ED+SC is enough for raids.
its good on mythic kurog
but what about for the SS dam
but apart form that
You'd only use bolster with ItF if you were running it in keys, which you shouldn't. In raid you have enough downtime when not tanking that it's not a concern.
round down to 90. which rounds down to 80. which rounds down to 60. which rounds down to 50. which rounds down to zero shield block uptime smh my head
That's a weird SB count. o.o
Under casts it's 30
extends wont count
means 11 gaps or whatever
I knew i sucked.

Mwahi owns
Oh, no.
Thatβs also the reason why everything below a 95 parse is shit :>
97.6
Also..down with Storming.
The amount of times i'm thinking "I'll leap to kite/pull the next pack" just to get my leap cancelled by a storming which was forming under the enemies is mindboggering.
Yeah fuck storming
I also ironically killed a melee in Nokhud with storming since i got knocked up and the knockup moved me enough in the air to get a melee frontaled with the horsie.

Exactly.
You don't know that they prefer "Centaur" over "Horsie".
Storming knocked me off of the first bridge today vex in AA yesterday, I've never been so embarrassed in a key before
We used lust and everything man 
Happens to the best of us
hit a storming on the plant pull in AA. into a 5s disorient. into a 5s disorient. into a 5s disorient, into a 5s disorient....
i wasnt tanking at the time so it was relatively safe
Ah,okay-.
Storming on shield maidens group goes also brrr
The group, however, was not safe.
exactly the sort of reason i bring a tankadin with me to my runs
keeps the bear safe
Melees gone

hi guys, can someone please explain why the recommended tier pieces take gloves over chest? when gloves has rly poopy stats
yeah chest is crit/vers but it's a matter of do you take the high stat thing with less than great stats or the low stat thing with less than great stats.
that's fair
cause mastery is really bad i thought we'd just try to avoid it
at least crit=vers
Mastery isn't really bad. It's fine
It's our least preferred stat but you don't actively avoid any stats
just because it our worst stat doesnt mean its bad
I cant look it up bc i am on work, but is there a good chest with high ilvl in raid?
Dathea has a high haste/vers chest
Same ilvl as Kurog
So ideally you use that with the tier set in the other slots.
Take it you didn't play Legion 
got 1
π€·
legion was the best expansion they've had
change my mind
just saying
Didn't get the good leggo till halfway through tomb, shit sucked
The wpvp was great tho
Also bears were brought for their strength and utility
Which is yknow 6 years dead
I liked legion before they blanket nerfed tanks in all pvp content
I remember getting the boots as my first leggo. Sad times
Running so fast I outran my dps
i did get lucky tho
got gloves and bracers as 2nd and third leggo
and im pretty sure i got belt 4th
like i was giga lucky
XD
Any1 knows what's more (approximately) dam in M+ on fort weeks for pwar - battering ram or 1 point in bloodborne?
Not home rn so can't sim myself
battering
Any % or just feelycraft?
well BB is 1.5 %
battering i dont know
but its more rage
more SS casts
more everything to fuel the AM loop
Aite, thanks. Will give it a try
darkmoon dance hype apply to pwar?
for me it simmed better than 415 whetstone but worse than a 421 one
i haven't crafted tho because gold
it's not really rng at all
doesnt it specifically bounce enemy - ally - enemy?
maybe im wrong
doesn't it shuffle until it hits the ace?
so that can take a longer or shorter time
are you simming it with the added thingy?
yes
i dont think it resets when you use it
i think it resets when you unequip it
so it will always be on the ace
no but i think it might reset when you pull raidbosses
it's also an on use
oh hm im not sure about that
I thought it was just permanently on the ace
anyone have a workign macro for heathstone and health potion prioing hs?
you should just be able to use a regular castsequence macro I think
Would probably have to do something like
/castsequence reset=60 Healthstone, Healing Potion
Though I'm not 100% you can use castsequence for items
not ideal though since if it resets before you want to pot it wont work right?
Yeah, it's not ideal but I don't think there's a way to make it ideal.
nop i dont think so either
probably the best way would be a mod
Its only me which hΓ’te this week afixes ans pretty happy to be on wenesday shortly ?
Nobody ever likes bolstering fortified
I mean, it's not great, but not the worst either
because, at worst,
I hate sanguine more, its a pain in the dickhole
you sit there with your thumb up your ass for bloated HP pools
Tornado can be ignored but fortifed+ boosting hp is pain in the ass xD
Sanguine you just had to aoe cleave and moove your mob is not a big deal
In the majority of keys this holds true.
Going up the key level it becomes a pain, especially in pugs.
got called paper tank for this
was good fun
hey it is what it is
What keylevel?
20
i bricked mine today for this as well
no one inturpted after mine
or they inturpt bomb for some reason
instead of putting it on mobs
I've just stumbled on the text of this https://www.wowhead.com/spell=385391/spell-reflection . (Causes an enemy to take 20% increased Physical damage for 5 sec.) I think this procs from spell reflect once you take a damage in it. Is this thing legit? I cannot find anything about this on google.
Causes an enemy to take 20% increased Physical damage for 5 sec. In the Uncategorized Spells category. Requires Warrior. Added in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight.
π¦
AA?
π
literally everything one shot dps
I just assign colors in pugs.
"X = kick red".
On the 22 key level most of them listen.
idk man it feels like amazons in NA pugs
π¦
The only spicy pull that requires proper kicks is on the Vex platform tho.
If you do the double pack into single pack.
Other than that it's w/e.
Je, but that's ALMOST solo interruptable/kickable.
the caster double is cancer as fuck
Depending on which packs you pull together.
im prob just not gonna do double there like i said
I did a 18AA today, and that pack was the only issue π because my druid healer moonfired other pack π
and pull the 4 pack with boss
That and the Piercing guys in AV are the 2 places where i DON'T use SC on CD.
But keep it as an interrupt.
The pack before the boss?
yea
Jeh.
its not that bad
That's "standard" tho, no?
a lot of people pull double 4+3 and lust
Ah,okay.
Is there any trick to not get slaped by the windy elemental?
Other than avoid tornados and los
Just SR/DS + IP.
Even on a 22 it was w/e.
It's just 1 single nuke that hurts so you just plan for it..
if youre struggling there just use wall you dont need it for bird packs, not supposed to use any cd for bird packs anyway
the big birds arent the issue its the peck from small birds, just kite them
We timed it, but i guess i should do some bigger pulls after bird boss, we went to the arcane one as 3rd
how do you deal with the battleaxe? just try to stop it every time it tries to cast the bleed thing, can't outrange it or?
Also i wanted to ask, someone told me that drake breath can be outrangwe somehow
I'm pretty sure you can outrange it.
cant reliably out range it
π
Leap.
you dont really have to until its bolstered to the tits
In 18 today it did like 60% of my hp
But they convinced me to do big pull before Hymdal, was kinda afraid od bolstering there but we managed
Yeah I will take it there next time
Have to do my 17HOV
there will be a point that last breath with like 8 bolster stack one shots you thru everything
Was19 π¦
Battleaxes got longer arms than spiteful 
That sounds like bad priority damage.
Keep Thunder interrupted, nuke drake.
nah they removed the heal on melee trash now its not realistic to kill dragon first
you could do it before because the melee mob healed themselves
Idk, we just did it in a 21.
Can CC a thunder caller also to make it a tad less hectic but fully sending and banging drake as prio is all g
Yeah we CCβd one
I yoinked this route from andybrew, worked really good, but last pull before bossi I split up in 2 since I didn't trust
idk i guess my dps lied to me then
We do similar in 23, will see how 24 looks tomorrow
but dragon has like 2* the hp so idk
Ty, i did the bridge in my route
Just need better funnel/priority damage into drake, dps be lying 
those pulls are super comfy there
I tried doing left + right textbook packs and it was always a mess
Assign interrupts, use a defensive on pull.
And you gucci.
We were doing 9, and mid fight dudu moonfired 11 π
eww
Yeh we grab it with lust and use stops for axe/books and kick surges
how do you ahve lust there? do you shroud there and do it as first pull?
Yup
ah
We had a wipe on HoV first pull on a 23 because Arcane mage said "I CAN'T INTERRUPT WHEN I BURST!!!!".

π
If no shroud I tend to go tree first
the first pull in hov my biggest enemy has been thundering
Mine's been arcane mages apparently.

arcane mage is high risk meh reward
Mine was trust on intereupts π
if you invite a mage you accepte the affix it comes with
On average I have more luck with frost mages.
brain dmg 
I rarely see mages. π¦
Last time i gave a mage shot to my group, he went fire
Usually all monks/rogues/DH's.
So kinda poopy
i love metaslavinfg
He'll do omega burst for one boss pull, for some reason, and then proceed not to do anything for the rest of the key
I had a lock in COS, that was eating every hit during the run, and aleays complaining that out healer is not healing but dpsing
But he was the only one loosing health..
Burning rush?
Something else was burning there π
But i made a fury war happy in that run
He got the stone π
He didnt even reply to the standard question, Do you need??
Insta hs π
Do you already have it?
No
He looted it
sometimes the best way to help yourself
Oh.
is to help someone else
Smh.
No.
But I was there
Not in a pug.
You know
cranky mwahi 
I saw it
The only way to be successful in a pug is to do everything yourself.
I saw the stone
DPS too mongs.



Council is a heavy "stupid parsing build" fight.
so ITF i guess π
can i have 100% SB with ITF without Bolster?
why would u need it
oh HR for brood, thats a good shout ty
u arent tanking all the time
We've honestly only swapped Opal.
yer
and its the second boss
i mean i usually tank them all
cause damage
but its boss 2
its not supposed to hurt
is the timer of the fire debuff off? like it doesnt stack up infinite?
I mean this is where i tanked all 4 last time with ITF and ED and Bulwark
lol
Hi guys I was wondering, should I upgrade my shield or my weapon first. They are both 405 ilvl and i can upgrade one at 418 (405.19 ilvl)
Shield π‘οΈ
Thx !
hmm, 80k dps on Council π€
wtf top parsing PWarr on Council has 3 tanks in the grp π€£
Ill do shiled this week too, so I dont have to open in prot but fury π
Upgrade the shield is better than the lariat right ?
yes
