on the void adds

tame jasper
#

they destroy me too so often 😦

lone eagle
#

It also makes the meta pull easier too

tame jasper
#

Even with kiting

drifting needle
#

What I’m getting at, is that by taking it. It’s not like you’re capping for the key

limpid anchor
#

Yea definitely not

lone eagle
#

where you skip first pack and then go right and get the void add w/ the 4 mobs

#

bukama if you kite and they are slowed theyll never cast

void marten
#

maintenance extended for 1 more hour

warm plinth
#

Yes, 1 second

#

btw why is the void add sometimes on the left? its rare but do u trigger the side by stepping somewhere?

warm plinth
#

It's just timing

#

You can wait and it'll go away

limpid anchor
#

It goes in a circle

cloud umbra
#

its always on the left at the start.. at least from my experience

Hey guys - just a quick one - which section of raidbots do you use for simming which stat increases would be most beneficial? Or do you do this by comparing gear?

robust lark
#

Q - I've got my first concentrated infusion, and 405 Lariat/Shield/Sword/Ring/Frostfire Belt...should use it on the shield first?

Never sim stats, always just items

went arms for trinkets, ofcourse i got a 421 2h weapon..
I got 402 tier shoulders, 402 decoration of flame and a 398 blazebinder's hoof currently equipped. what would you recommend i pick from here?

modern crypt
#

ok guys lets start the opinions:
WHICH ONE, All-totem master is more used but it is not upgradable and "only" 408

woeful trellis
#

some infos to totem

#

Can anyone explain to me how opening with taunt works? In my mind it places you on top of the meter for 3 secs. But does it build aggro in itself?

strong forum
#

taunt doesnt build threat

modern crypt
strong forum
#

it only puts you ontop of the list, BUT during the 3sec taunt window you do generate +400% with all the dmg you deal

robust lark
#

if it was me I'd take the 421 2hander and go ham in arms

#

it's nice to take a break from tankin from time to time XD

should i open vault as dps or tank? i already have a 421 shield

Cause a 421 2hander is pretty rare, rest of your options pretty easy to get

#

Like you could go rest of season without seeing another wep

what do we want our lariat to proc? haste?

So do i pick 411 tier set helm non upgradeable,or do i pick 411 mythic pants upgradeable and make them set pieces but using 1 catalyst on them?

A trained whelp shell is as good as trample

Theyre both the same trinket technically speaking

The proc rate on shell is garbage in keys though. Very often procs like half as much as it should due to the weird proc bug

idk i find trample way more reliable

its consistently around 3%

shell is weird

I have Idol in my vault and the rest are garbage so deciding between that or a gem slot lol

strong forum
#

Rppm mean relative procs per minute, meaning it can go 7 minutes without a proc, then proc 7 times in 1 minute

#

Hooves is exactly the same

warm plinth

Of course, but that doesn't mean it should proc literally half as many times as it should in a key

This vault drives me insane: 421 haste/versa shield (wearing 418 haste/versa + embellishment), broodmother HC-ring (wearing 415 craft with socket and auto attack ring with socket) and HC-Totem-Trinket (wearing normal decoration of flame and 418 Granyths shit trinket -_-

You also wasted a fair bit of rage, you generated 17.9k rage, wasted 800

# sweet summit they own

Yeah. I did an overhaul for arms apl. I made gains in hac, dslice and patchwerk. Learned a lot gladge

That's almost 5% wasted ragec

#

You wanna be 1% or lower

oblique wharf
#

by wasted u mean inefficient usage or overcapping?

strong forum
#

Overcapping

oblique wharf
#

so it's better to use IP even if i dont need than overcap?

strong forum
#

Yes

potent anvil
#

Rage spent also means more cdr via AM. So yeah, you dump into ignore pain even if you cap out on IP

strong forum
#

Also means more outbursts

#

Which means in turn more rage gen again

#

In my run I generated 19k rage only wasted 240

#

And thus almost used a full 2k more rage than you did

#

Despite the run only being 30seconds longer

#

It's all about the rage feedback loop

#

And using outbursts primarily on shield slam

I thought you said 6.6k for a second there

But you mean 6.6% ye?

tame jasper
#

yeah 6,6% (16.615 gained, 110x wasted)

Yeah wasting 1.1k rage is alot

# strong forum And using outbursts primarily on shield slam

You want to use outburst on shield slam even on AOE situation if not under Avatar buff ?
Shield slam is topically bread and butter for protec warrior ? You never sit on it no matter the situation ? You just have to make a way not to cap rage ?

Not really a Prot question specifically, but I constantly seem to interrupt my Grieftorch with queued spells. Get like 1 stick off them it just stops.

Its gotta be Strike Twice or Icon. Icon is big for your raid if neither tank is wearing it, but Strike Twice is big for you. You can (albeit expensively) move embellishments off your weapon to somewhere else to not lose value there, "just" gold, and get a big upgrade

lime urchin

No sim the stat-stick

lone eagle

The shield will do a decent amount but nothing crazy.

If you have one, you absolutely should craft a Frostfire belt though.

#

on M Kurog, it did ~7.3% of my healing for about 1m damage absorb.

so, im at around 4,5 haste should i let my lariat procc for a different stat now than haste?

Hey, I struggle to comprehend how much shield slam is important in AOE situation (5 target)
When I have both thunder clap and shield slam up, and let's say I'm about to cap rage and I don't need IP :
I should revenge, thunderclap, Shield slam ?
If I'm not about to cap rage :
Thunderclap, shield slam, revenge ?

Always shield slam first bc of interaction with the rest of the kit ? (CDR and proc reset shield slam cd). As long as I don't cap rage ?

I feel like I should spam IP more to avoid caping because I often don't have the time to use revenge without delaying shield slam and thunderclap for numerous GCDs. Or I should stop trying to dump ~80 rage at the same time when I don't need to

So as far as weather or not you should catalyst something it depends on what level content you cap out at, right like apply some discretion. Are you realistically going to be filling your vault with +20 options if your answer is yes then probably hold your charges
