sry for spam i thought out loud

and its not possible to have 100% uptime on shield block right?

it is

only if sc available at start tho right?

deft mortar

I think u might go shield slam +1 sec to block over IoF if u want 100% uptime SB

but why

oak echo

between SC, 2 SB charges, and heavy repercussions you can definitely have 100% with proper play

my logs feel pretty lame. sometimes i'll hit somewhere in the 80% for my ilvl. sometimes kinda sad. i think I was in the 60% for mythic eranog. Comparing a high log, with a fight during same duration, I noticed they had way more casts of revenge, and maybe 10 or more shield slams. Any ideas? Besides just...play better lol? I honestly feel like I hit my buttons rightt but I guess not. I feel like I dump a lot of rage into ignore pain, but if I dont I feel like ima rage cap

if you doing LFr just go by that tbh

so i did that on raz when mod told me to taunt

is 80 to 90% melee blocked on logs a "good enough" number? or are we actively supposed to work towards 100%

"takes away 3sec of dps time" lol

90% of the time if the tank dies it's the tanks fault. We have to take a massive amount to out damage our defenses. But even if that weren't the case looking for external blame will only get you so far, you can only control you in these elements so it's best to find what you can do better in it 🙂

#

@strong forum often during my play i just always want more opportunities to hit revenge, but feel like i rarely get them, rage isnt the issue, its all my other abilities off CD, primarily SS and TC, that prevent me from hitting it

deft mortar
#

Its useless because it doesnt stop a fatal dmg

Like blood dk spells do

Or rogue or whatever

if I drop below 30% im usually dead anyway

maybe dumb question . but wich spell is it that can spell reflect on Teera and maruuk for big dmg exactly

viscid plaza

There aren't many situationswhere it would proc anyway

deft mortar
#

even if it stopped fatal dmg the other choices pump too muchdps

viscid plaza
#

You shouldn't be routinely dropping to 30%, so even if it functioned as intended you're losing damage or other survivability to take a talent that you'd only sometimes get use out of.

@strong forum so i had a question about that. often when i get the proc. i have TC ready to use, but no SS....so the right move is just let TC linger? until SS is off CD?

@strong forum So when you get outburst, but no SS, and TC is avail...you just spam revenge until SS is up and use?

strong forum
#

Yes

frozen rose
#

okay. thank you for the help

strong forum
#

Revenge is your filler ability

#

It's like ss>tc>revenge

#

And outburst should be used at a 4:1 ratio between SS and TC

#

Ideally you wanna send almost all outbursts into shield slam

#

It's your bread and butter for single target dps

deft mortar
#

does TC do rends initial dmg?

frozen rose
#

got it. Do you actually typically go SS,TC,then revenge? Feel like if I did that...i'm ignoring procs of TC and SS, and hitting revenge. my rotation is def not a balanced weave between them lol. I feel like I don't have many opportunities to hit revenge

No

So guys ty for nice spell prio. clarification ^^
If i may regarding my item / stat choice, atm i have stats:

Crit - 21%
Haste - 27%
Versa - 18%

Would it be smart to craft Eng. head with full haste to reach that 30% ''cap'' + ress tinker?
P.s. in that case i am losing aprox. 2% crit from existing head item.

You're nowhere near the "cap"

Oi peeps, Im slowly finishing all 22's and kinda wonder... ( was too scared to ask but I see its about time )
Do I assume correct we shout to help heal out when group is low, but we shout before certain casts like 4th Craw AOE so group doesn't drop too low?

strong forum
#

You need 7.2k haste before you reach the point where wanna hardstop getting haste

#

Gl with that okayge

icy citrus

So, go for it would be conslucion? 😄

#

Since i lack a lot of haste then

tender quartz
#

So i wasn't off by too much then, thanks :D

strong forum
#

You have more haste than me, but I'm not gonna go and craft the engi helmet

You want a healthy spread of stats, with focus on haste

#

Rn you're just gotta make do with what hand you're dealt, if you absolutely want to, sure you can craft engi helm, it's not a detriment

tender quartz
#

Also ( I know, Overall is a bad metric, depending on dungeons and pulls ) but am I generally okay with 65-70k for 22's as Tank, or would I be able to go safer? DPS in pugs do vary alot and I don't like that offensive playstyle anymore in certain dungeons...

what do you think about talenting into barbaric training on rasza hc?

plush tendon
#

you generally have CDs on first set, Challenging Shout second

#

and just do damage on third

#

like Demo+SC does the trick for me

is it good or back fire again?

plush tendon

you dont get aggro for secodn intermission

those adds just run across

its on DPS to ring/stun em when they get to the center and blow em up

Since my dodge is at a huge, massive 3 percent, I'm glad there's no downside for parry.

#

I just look at subcreation; Haste/Vers gems seem to be most popular

jagged pier
#

ew

plush tendon
#

good chance they may also be geared for arms or fury

jagged pier
#

we dont go there

plush tendon
#

and its also recommended to go haste/vers in wowhead

strong forum
#

Subcreation is just a popularity chart

#

Nothing else

jagged pier
#

well its also worse because ppl just copy the top person

#

then it filters down and down

rough egret
#

Im gemin haste crit

plush tendon
#

therefore, I just say crit and vers relatively equal so people can make up their own mind

rough egret
#

Lariat procs more crit

jagged pier
#

well there are equal if anything crit is better as 90% of ppl in here just run m+

modest gulch
jagged pier
#

where crit is actually better

#

its 👏 almost 👏 like 👏 stats 👏 dont 👏 matter 👏

modest gulch
#

Why would they be so deliberately min/maxing crit over vers if it didn't matter? Follow up question, why are there no inverse examples of tanks minimizing crit and preferring vers in those top logs?

strong forum
#

Cuz ilvl is king

plush tendon
#

bro, you thinking way too hard about this

jagged pier
#

your really over thinking stats

crit is more fun, tanks dont die so why not spec crit?

Some also play arms in raid

vers wont save u from dying anyway

crit actually might if u parry the right thing

stoic elm

is mage tower easier as prot or fury

daring marlin
#

crazy how trash people can't clear thundering during the big trash pack before first boss of HoV

plush tendon
#

it really just comes down to gem enchant haste+thing, slap on highest I level, and let it ride

#

granted, my Eggnog ring gives me like 900 Vers XD

#

its where it all comes from

#

otherwise, just a smattering of stats of whatever gear I got

modest gulch
#

I have Vers/Haste air gems atm, for Lauriat to proc haste... but strongly considering a swap to haste/crit air

plush tendon
#

personal choice

#

im haste/crit on lariat

#

works well for dps specs

strong forum
#

But a fury main might say that fury is one of the easiest

plush tendon
#

Fury is real easy

its just a back and forth

Also, based on stuff learned here I cleared 3rd boss on TJS yesterday +17 for the first time without needing externals. Huge progress in terms of learning the class lol

Is it easier to have arms or fury as an off spec for prot?

plush tendon

by like a smidge

#

im also particular to arms

so im on diurna and im second tank designed for adds,so 1 grp of adds spawned,got agro on them,immidietly 5 sec later another 3 adds spawned,is that normal xD?

#

you need to grab aggro and move

plush tendon
#

10/10 would recommend

sick sentinel
#

oh i love azure vaults

void marten
#

after the first set which is only 1 pack, both sides spawn 2 sets of adds within 10 seconds of each other

languid wind
plush tendon
#

I actually dont think Azure is that bad now

sick sentinel
#

i still mess up many parts of that dungeon

plush tendon
#

just have to recognize what are the dangerous things in each pack, and some coordination also goes a long way

#

oh, and your WW has to not have his gear break right before the second boss with no auto hammer

try again i guess

can u spwan the AV adds with the 2 welps at different times? i feel like even if i attack 1 welp, the other one goes off too

You can check their repairs via details?

Vanilla is harder cause we were all dumbasses in 2004

and had potato cpus

# sick sentinel try again i guess

Get your route down- I skip first three lashers, pull 1 group with pat on second ring along with the 4 knock back dudes, pull everything else

I cant wait to do the big pull at the beginning with no bolstering

screw that rock guy

I'm actually tilting at how people flame when I'm sweating to make sure the group doesn't get detonated only to watch a WW monk hold sweep for the next key

we skip him to

wtf do you just wait 5 minutes

plush tendon

pathing can be a cuck sometimes

cinder nova
#

How are you taking that long to clear up to him or are you rogue shrouding the 2nd

amber siren
#

You can wait for the pat, 10-15 seconds is better than a minute fighting him

plush tendon

depends if we have a rogue

sometimes we do, in which case he distracts

when we finishing up

can you do double packs first pull in tjs on +23?

You mean elemental + caster + blobs?

my last tjs 23 I did 2 elementals + caster

but for most people, prob not worth the risk

I thinki ts pretty good place to save some timer

yea, but for a 21 or 22 timer isnt really the big issue

its just wiping to things

Is anyone an expert on timewalking? namely mage tower, i'm struggling with and feel stat checked

#

Thanks Augusto, so pay more attention to SB basically^^

And a question for the last boss AV I know I can SR the big Dragon Strike thing but sometimes it's not ready before he does it again, do his timers change or do I have to pre SR?

plush tendon
#

then rotate defensive CDs

#

if you have nothing, hop into D Stance and Impending or something

#

depending on how fast you phase, you could get doulbe use of spell reflect

#

before needing Wall or Last Stand

Does spell block just give the chance to block spells or does it block all spells for 20 seconds?

blocks all spells

as long as you have block up

which you should have

tanking 18s at 398 this week was a pain with bolstering and fortified

But don’t you have to get some count around 2nd boss

errant root

You do the first 2 whelp stone packs and the whole 2nd boss room yes

Do you do the two you have to drop down on before third boss or try to pull them away so your group can skip and then get a rez?

That’s the last pull

Need it for count, wouldn’t advise doing the 5 stone pack before ring 1

tulip kelp
#

He probably saw people skipping the minis with meld vanish or FD

#

I mean if it’s a rogue just have him aggro first and vanish after you pull boss and can still skip

sick sentinel
#

boss casts shard at 75 50 25%, and other casts(breath & orb) have priority over dragon strike

#

meaning if they come up at the same time he will cast the other spells first

#

in other cases, pop reflect 2 seconds before you know for sure hes about to cast dragon strike

#

pre casting reflect will let you to have it back for the next cast

#

and if you fuck it up dont panic just use cd

#

bottom line is to make sure you have reflect up if youre about to leap away for positioning

#

everything else is bonus mark

for 418 crafting does it make sense to prioritize weapon, shield, or something else? I am 402 on weapon and shield and 405 on lariat.

If you want more dam, go weap if a bit more def, go shield

Whetstone in AoE is better than grief, so definitely great for m+

I think ST dpsers were below 65k

I did 60k overall xd

Which was low too

+21 RLP is always the same deaths to 2nd Boss, DPS dont know how to bait properly

60k overall is plenty for cos as tank.

Absolutely no shame on D-stance

I got comfy with shifting stances but

I think the main thing I can improve on is using my defensives better and more

And keep all totem

I tunnel dps and dump all my rage into revenge heheh

currently sitting on ruby whelp shell (5/6 trained), alltotem 395 and decoration 389, what trinket combo would yall use of those?
