what lenght is a good target?

fallen pulsar
#

for dungeons 2 minutes 5 target patchwork with no lust is my preferred setting

dusky canopy
#

You could do 5T patchwork 1minute to simulate your damage on an average pull but it’s not perfectly accurate

#

Pull lengths vary and mob count Varys

plush tendon
#

yea, a 1 min will give you with all CDs

#

you can always just do a 5 min

north dew
#

im inspired by the Warri Shuhwar. He does alot of dmg and i see he uses crit, so i like to try it too

inland raft
#

I do 2/3/5 min st and 5 target and then draw parallels

north dew
#

Thanks for your tips, i will try it out

dusky canopy
#

Also I would turn off raid buffs and lust as nando suggested

#

Give yourself ap since you always have that

fallen pulsar
#

I'm too lazy to unlclick all the buffs lol, but yeah in a realistic scenario you wont have all the buffs

dusky canopy
#

Sims give you a general idea you have to apply logic as well

#

At least for aoe sims

inland raft
#

Only select buffs tou always have so bs, and if run on a static, any you get from them

north dew
#

alright

#

Thank you all guys. Now i test it 🙂

dusky canopy
#

In general it’s safe to trust the orange men’s advice

dusky canopy
#

They spend hours and hours playing with sims

fallen pulsar
#

(ily)

inland raft
#

Never played ff in my life

#

Ive used the term static for longer then can remember

errant brook
#

FF2 ftw.

fallen pulsar
inland raft
#

I warched like 30 mins of gameplay of ff and got bored

fallen pulsar
#

first time I ever heard it was in ff14

inland raft
#

Maybe it actually is more fun then looked but just never tried it

fallen pulsar
#

I loved the story in ff, but the gameplay was soooo Zzzzzz... to me

#

idk, the combo system just feels so boring

inland raft
#

Guild wars 1/2, swtor for like 6 months when first launched, and lost ark recently when dropped sl are only other mmos ive spent any real time in

dusky canopy
#

That game just isn’t for me the combat feel compared to wow is just ass imo

#

But we went over this yesterday lulul

fallen pulsar
#

Wildstar was the first MMO I ever tried hard in, rip

pine lotus
#

I see some warriors are taking into the fray (haste buff) and then most are taking heavy repercussions. For m+, what causes you to take one over the other

dusky canopy
#

Itf is technical higher damage

#

But as nando said

inland raft
#

But sim assumes 100% uptime on 5 stacks too so while it is higher damage it isnt as mucj as sim will lead you to believe

dusky canopy
#

Also don’t run itf with 4 ranged

inland raft
#

And if not playing it perfectly itll fall behind anyways, really just play hr at least til maybe next season when we sitting at significantly higher haste values

fallen pulsar
#

yeah, itf is very dependent on consistently being at max stacks

dusky canopy
#

Honestly just run hr and bask in permanent block glory

silent anchor
silent anchor
#

Sane with raid ig

fallen pulsar
#

HR is much safer and has much less room for error

#

in raid ITF is the clear choice

pine lotus
inland raft
#

With hr you often can go long times not spending rage on block at all cuz its just always up

dusky canopy
#

Block recharge

silent anchor
#

I play ITF in keys sometimes. Depends how I feel.

fallen pulsar
#

add shield charge, and now you have 100% uptime

silent anchor
pine lotus
#

Thank you nando, that makes sense

inland raft
#

I played it for a while and went back to hr, my overall is within margin of variance wither way literally feels the same and just safer

#

St actually went up in pugs since dont always have 5 stacks on bosses with pugs

fallen pulsar
#

idk, I'm at 34% haste pre itf at the moment. Going to give it a shot once I can move around a bit more stats

hexed crescent
#

How good is diurna ring? i got eranog and cos one at 415, should i get it from vault? only other option is cloak

fallen pulsar
deft mortar
#

nice

inland raft
#

I agree with andybrew that itf is kinda trolling tbh

neon sparrow
#

Are there any NON mythic dungeon guides?..... or it quest and straight to Mythic +?

fallen pulsar
#

the shield is ok

deft mortar
#

Azure Vault first pull

#

nobody interrupted the big tree

#

I got polyd and dide

dusky canopy
#

Just do it

#

That’s what I do

fallen pulsar
#

its better than non CoS or eranog rings tho

deft mortar
#

I was trying to position the packs togtehr

#

first 3 saplings and the 4

#

I fkn hate drone dps players who just pump

#

And not even wait for me to position

hexed crescent
dusky canopy
#

They rip off you before pack is settled that’s on them

#

Not you

dusky canopy
#

DH critcake

fallen pulsar
#

its still a good ring, but I love pumping

vast goblet
#

as a DH main I can say that it is possible to wait for the tank to set up before you go wild

#

its tempting to rip but it is possible

dusky canopy
hexed crescent
#

yeah forgot to mention im rocking the belt

dusky canopy
#

Lmao

fallen pulsar
#

the shield isn't too great iirc from convos here. It's still useful probably mostly in M+

#

like, in m+ some defensive stuff is better as a take than offensive

dusky canopy
#

It’s not desirable because of stats

#

If it’s your highest ilvl run it

#

If you have better options though you don’t need it

plush tendon
#

it really only becomes desirable since it drops at 431 in Mythic and 418 in Heroic

#

huge I levels

deft mortar
#

What's funny is that

#

If they wait 2 secs

#

They will do more dps

#

cuz mobs will be together

vast goblet
#

@dusky canopy you'd think that by the time you get to the point where youre running 20 youve died enough times by ripping aggro off the tank to know better

dusky canopy
#

Nope

icy bane
#

Dps players and learning…

dusky canopy
#

Steady bursting off the rip

vast goblet
#

they love going wild on the tree boss trash in AA too

#

just cant resist

deft mortar
#

What's funny is vs trash packs they barely beat my dps or maybe match it

dusky canopy
#

Ranged kep saying “that poor DH”

fallen pulsar
#

idk, I still get melee that walk into the HoV add cleaves lmao

dusky canopy
#

Lmao

daring marlin
#

I managed to get my DH buddy to wait on tree boss trash last time I was in there.

vast goblet
#

omg i had this WW the other day in HoV die 15 times cause he just couldnt figure out what a cleave was lol

daring marlin
#

goofy bitch

dusky canopy
#

I just laugh when they try to bitch at me for cleaves

icy bane
daring marlin
#

like bruh I'm pulling all of the lashers just chill for a couple seconds

dusky canopy
#

It’s like bro you have 85% of the targets surrounding

#

Fek off

fallen pulsar
sick sentinel
#

thats a big rule i constantly forget, face enemies away from group, and stun mobs that can be stunned in trash pulls

deft mortar
#

melees dying to frontals in HoV trash

daring marlin
deft mortar
#

when u move in 1 direction only

#

but they still gotta dance around

dusky canopy
daring marlin
#

They don't realize how wide the cleave is, somehow

dusky canopy
#

I even cuck the camera if I have too

vast goblet
#

@sick sentinel stunning mobs with tankbusters becomes a necessity not just for the tank but for everyone in the party at higher keys

sick sentinel
fallen pulsar
icy bane
#

Still get dps that stun off the rip, dr mobs and eating their stops in 20s lol

fallen pulsar
#

I can handle em on my own

vast goblet
#

yeah man even after the nerfs

dusky canopy
#

Prime example is AV shards

fallen pulsar
#

but my god, no dps ever does anything on em

#

ever

vast goblet
#

last pack in TJS

dusky canopy
#

Dps just zug zug while your clenching cheeks sending everything you got to survive

daring marlin
#

Spellblock so nice for that final TJS pack tho

icy bane
#

lol tank made of paper

sick sentinel
#

do you guys take inting shout fear in keys, because, it is a different school off CC fear

dusky canopy
#

Just don’t let all 4 claws line up and you’re chillin

fallen pulsar
#

yeah spellblock is legit SSSS tier for last TJS pack

icy bane
#

Illidanxlord has left the party

dusky canopy
#

If they line up at once you dead homie

#

I run fear yogi

sick sentinel
#

cuz i've stopped taking that talent, too much chaos in a pug

dusky canopy
#

But I also pug

fallen pulsar
#

I use int shout, then tclap immediately

spark gazelle
#

Anyone can tell ideally how our stats should be looking guys?

dusky canopy
#

I plan the key like I’m soloing it basically

#

Best chance of success pugging

vast goblet
#

yeah

icy bane
#

Ye int shout should almost be broken right away, so a good stop CD

sick sentinel
#

i get that its strong, but it just don't trust it without cow stomp after and they can be stunnedd

dusky canopy
#

Don’t worry about following up

spark gazelle
#

this is how my stats are looking atm whoever can answer tnx in advance!

dusky canopy
#

Fear drops almost instantly

fallen pulsar
sick sentinel
#

and they have to be together

dusky canopy
#

From damage

fallen pulsar
#

int shout has saved me a lot because people use all their stuns together and ruin the stun DR 🙃

dusky canopy
fallen pulsar
#

yeah your stats look fine

dusky canopy
spark gazelle
fallen pulsar
#

I prefer more crit, but crit and vers are equal value for us

spark gazelle
#

aright if they are ideal sounds good to me

dusky canopy
#

35% Crit gamer thanks game

vast goblet
#

i got mastery coming out of my ears

fallen pulsar
#

some mastery is good tho tbh

vast goblet
#

every piece seems to have mastery in M+

fallen pulsar
#

crit block does a lot of work

icy bane
#

Crit synergy with all totem right? So crit god tier stat

last nova

how to proc broodkeeper ring without belt?

dusky canopy

Buy the belt

Flame cap

You don’t

icy bane
#

Spam flame cap

fallen pulsar
#

you can proc it

#

just much more annoying

last nova
#

flame cap?

hollow hill
#

For raid, especially single target fights, is it worth pressing TC on CD? Wowanalyzer seems to think so but I'm not sure

icy bane
#

TBC consume for 1min gives you chance on hit to proc fire damage

spark gazelle
#

Dont you need engineering for the belt guys?

dusky canopy
#

Yes In general

#

SS> TC > Rev

hollow hill
#

👍

vast goblet
#

i dont think frostfire belt is a engineering specific belt

jagged pier
icy bane
#

It’s mostly just a jest because it’s expensive and lasts 1 min

vast goblet
hollow hill
spark gazelle
#

How do u get Frost and fiery soul then?

fallen pulsar
#

you need to buy an engi item on auction house

#

and soul cages

jagged pier
#

u got to go get them

spark gazelle
#

Oh.

#

fml

fallen pulsar
#

its not that bad

#

the engi item is permanent and reusable

#

the soul cages are consumes

#

but you only need 2

uneven ice
spark gazelle
fallen pulsar
#

it's got a weird name lmao

uneven ice
#

Search for a elite elemental and suck the life out of it

spark gazelle
#

pog

uneven ice
#

The soul you should get in no time

#

And the belt finally yours will be, just fine

spark gazelle
#

how do i find the item though

fallen pulsar
#

I think they made it easier to do the soul suck

#

but could be wrong and its for next patch

spark gazelle
#

googled it all good

fallen pulsar
#

but anyhow after you get the soul make sure to wait until the soul is happy in its new home

#

otherwise you dont get a soul

uneven ice
#

Important, don’t open the cage before 15 minutes or you will have to do it again

deep spade
#

Does Avatar affect trinket damage? Like Whetstone?

fallen pulsar
#

no

jagged pier
#

it shouldnt

fallen pulsar
#

neither does demo shout with the talent iirc

deep spade
#

But Demo shout does yeah?

spark gazelle
#

Thanks a lot guys

#

ill just suck and wait

vast goblet
#

took me 30 mins to get the souls i needed for the belt

fallen pulsar
#

I dont think demo shout affects whetstone damage

uneven ice
#

Is not hard, the soul thing

#

The trick for me was throw ravager when they have 5% and start sucking

fallen pulsar
#

sidenote: NA wont get to use trading post today 😦 looks like we have to wait for some hotfix

#

have to wait for flail

uneven ice
#

No celestial mount for them deadge

fallen pulsar

eh? who cares about an ancient store mount. F L A I L

hardy snow
jagged pier
fallen pulsar
#

but is your flail hot and spicy

jagged pier
#

yes

hardy snow
#

you should be able to farm enough tokens for both items

fallen pulsar
#

they should give us 500 more trader tendies for our troubles 😉

hardy snow

that flail suits nicely pvp elite set from current season, wish i was good at arenas copium

All of our damage increases (and, in fact, the vast majority of damage increases caused by players) are whitelisted, meaning they only work on a fixed list of spells that are specifically warrior spells.

What do you currently have crafted, so you have the fire rings if not how easy is it for you to obtain them

lucid pasture
#

for brood add tanking, how bad is it not playing punish and going bt?

#

how good or bad is that

#

also not going battering ram 😅

icy bane
#

Why

plush tendon
#

battering ram is da shit though

toxic pewter
#

i never leave home without battering ram

fallen pulsar
#

I'm always boss tank, so no idea

plush tendon
#

boss tank is lame

#

add tank more fun

icy bane
#

Lucky my OT is a BDK so he is boss tank

fallen pulsar

shrug, prot pally gets slapped around by the constant tank buster

toxic pewter

yah everyone want add

icy bane
#

I get to run around and kill adds

fallen pulsar

I can just SR every single cast

toxic pewter

but everyone knows the true glory is boss tank

leaden imp
lucid pasture

idk my tank isnt going punish or battering ram

#

i told him isnt that kinda weird

#

he told me he needs other stuff

#

🤷‍♂️

fallen pulsar
#

I run battering every raid fight

warm dune
#

is strike twice better than 418 weapon with embel in this case so i can add unstable frostfire belt?

fallen pulsar
#

yes

icy bane
leaden imp
#

y

icy bane
#

421 strike twice is bis weapon

modern brook
#

soyou'd need a 424 weapon to beat that

icy bane
#

I’d either do crit haste pvp bracers or you can do belt if you have chance at fire rings

#

Can also do CR bracers if you do m+

warm dune
#

yeah i mainly do mm+ so i sacrifice the raza heroic bracer for cr bracers? better than frotfire belt?

deft mortar
#

Ngl this SBG 21 was difficult

#

more cuz the shitty dps and their 55k overalls

#

highest did 55k overall

icy bane
#

Belt only good if you have rings

deft mortar
#

We had no CR either

#

Cuz clowns

lucid pasture
#

55k overall is tank overall

deft mortar
#

Mine was EVEN worse at 36k overall

#

Because every boss fight wa 5 min

#

was*

#

Not even kidding

fallen pulsar
#

oof

leaden imp
#

are the cr wrists considered as an embelish slot?

deft mortar
#

All 4 bosses took 4-5 mins

echo scarab
# warm plinth Yes, it's still possible

thanks then im the problem. I also heard about people saying the keep Hyrja exclusively on the sanctify side since only her sanctify damage gets empowered and expel light doesnt (although dungeon guide says so). You know anything about that?

icy bane
#

Still cleared tho

deft mortar
#

CR is absolutely garbage on warr tank

echo scarab
#

Havent seen anybody do that

deft mortar
#

Only worth tank CR if healer is dead

#

If healer is dead u will die before u cast it

icy bane
#

Not every group is gonna have a CR

fallen pulsar
#

4-5 minutes on 2nd boss sounds so sadgers

toxic pewter
#

I am engineer with full malfunction prevention and I think CR bracers are super valuable personally

deft mortar
#

Yeah wait until ur healer dies in jade temple 3rd boss 2nd phase

solemn current
warm dune
#

ahhaahhaha @deft mortar with the green thingy ahhahahaha

toxic pewter

I mean they aren't valuable in every situation but when they are they are clutch

Your healer shouldn’t be dying there

#

Bro you are talking out your ass lol

fallen pulsar
deft mortar
#

So u leap

#

u move

#

U cast for 4 seconds

#

A dps should do it

#

or the healer

fallen pulsar
#

nothing stopping a healer from eating flames 😛

All the frontal mechanics etc

icy bane
toxic pewter

well yeah, you have to use your best judgment in the situation..

solemn current

But I may or may not have had to leap out and brez during jade phase of Temple as a tank

fallen pulsar

how much do the flame circles hit for on COS boss 2 this week at 15, yes i know not to stand in them, its because i died to them last week ate 32 3

1 shot?

dont stand in them, like 1 prob wont one shot you

Yeah that boss can own groups on tyran thats for sure. things can go wrong really, really fast

warm plinth

It buffs both Sanctify and Expel Light; why tf would anyone do the fight any other way if it didn't keksquad

hard vector
sick sentinel
#

having quaking and thundering, and a few bosses that pull your team to a location is a bit trolling

toxic pewter
#

id prob make a 418 shield I guess

echo scarab
warm plinth
#

You have 2 embellishments already so makes no sense to have to recraft other shit to make lariat or belt or helm. I'd make a shield probably

hard vector
#

3ilvl diff is that big block wise?

sick sentinel
#

yes

warm plinth
#

It's significant, yes

fallen pulsar
#

the choker seems like an interesting choice, but uh, I'd say upgrading wep and shield is good

sick sentinel
#

shield is no exception

fallen pulsar
#

woops nvm on wep

#

its 418

toxic pewter
#

cloak is low ilvl but such a low stat item, helm will lose you 4 pc unless you have another 4th item?

fallen pulsar
#

misread as 415

hard vector
#

gonna remove the food buff embellishment if it stacks, I understood that food buff doesnt count as one of the 2 embellishment restriction

#

im 5piece now

#

its not updated

toxic pewter
#

food thing def does not count as an embellishment

sick sentinel
#

always ilvl in weapon slot, regardless anything at all unless doesnt have your main stat

hard vector
#

I can remove any of the pieces

toxic pewter
#

Oh cool u have 5 piece, I mean I personally prefer belt over helm myself.

#

do u have fire dam ring

sick sentinel
#

the ONLY thing the matters when it comes to weapon first thing, is its item level

#

once you have another similiar weapon, only then can you start to compare

spark patrol
#

that strike twice is 1.9% st and 1.7% dungeon slice increase

#

over my 418 crafted weapon

toxic pewter
#

wat pants u using

warm plinth
#

Dungeon slice should not be used. But you should take the weapon

spark patrol
#

415 tier pants

fallen pulsar
#

the weapon seems like the best choice tbh

but its a free ~1%

toxic pewter
#

yah but thats literally free damage

sand mason
#

Thats not an insane proc imo

warm plinth
#

If the argument is that it's only around 1% then don't get any embellishments

#

Because they're only 1% what a waste

toxic pewter
#

i mean what are you expecting though

sand mason
#

I want some poxstorm lvl proc

toxic pewter
#

its a proc no other 1h can do and still get to keep stats

If you want a better proc play havoc ig

yah its not OP by any means

I'm excited for the nelth mace next season 👀

My haste is actually shit. I got big huge ilvl but haste is sufferdge

dim crescent
#

Is it worth crafting a 415-418 shield if my current is a 411? I have 407 itemlevel and could bring up some other pieces. But curious if shield is more important

toxic pewter
#

hell yea

#

might as well craft a 418 shield I mean we have 5 sparks at this point and can get more via drops albeit low drop rate

wind lotus
#

are allied bracers worth crafting if you only play M+?

would you recommend the shield of hearth over the molten one? I have neck and belt embellishments

the difference is negligible damage wise

no one wants to stack germinate so you cant cleave/aoe the saplings and its harder to pull aggro on the 2nd germinate so its a potential wipe

fallen pulsar

whenever it actually works

deft mortar

Its only harder to pull aggro on 2nd germinate because dps players are drones

you can AoE taunt

deft mortar

Bet u will have AoE taunt every 2nd germinate

fallen pulsar
#

@modest gulch I think you're also not keeping shield block up while tanking the boss, looks like only 66% blocked hits

deft mortar
#

Also getting 3% vers and CR from Resto lmao its not comparable

fallen pulsar
#

looks like shield block was only cast 4 times that fight, which is really low for a 2:41 kill

uneven ice
#

Yeah, resto is lit

#

I have a Pala friend, and it’s also smooth

deft mortar

they also have CR so it good

idk I see 2 high value for healer having CR on Ttyra week atleast

uneven ice

CR?

deft mortar

Ah! Gotcha

#

Ye, superuseful

#

Worst ones has to be disc and monk

#

For my experience, at least

deft mortar
#

I never had a monk or shaman healer this expansion yet

#

The priest I had was for a low key I was just boosting

#

only did high keys with prevokers and rdruids

fallen pulsar
#

@modest gulch I'd say overall practice your rotation more. Your main issues from just looking at eranog are: low cpm, low shield slam cpm, not using your cooldowns on cooldown (could have demo shouted more, could have shield charged more), and some talent jank

#

you should also be maintaining shield block more as having it up makes shield slam do 30% more damage. and doubly making sure you have it up while tanking the boss

deft mortar
#

dang im not getting invited to any 20 key

toxic pewter

why not

might be lack of timed 20s on tyran.

tyran is a big tank tester on some bosses, so might be more selective

everything is controlled by dps

I see you havent timed multiple runs... time to get back to basics. I would recommend getting HR, grabbing some stops

you could literally drop pain and gain and honed reflexes, drop em into intimidating shout and stormbolt and be way more useful lmao

# deft mortar I mean stop what

Interrupts especially group wiping ones and healing ones, anything that needs to be stopped and can’t be interrupted especially stuff that will kill you. And if pain and gain is doing 10% of your healing you probably aren’t playing correctly. It’s maybe 5% of mine.

deft mortar

There is usually 2 things to interupt in any given pull

pallid quiver

it's 0% of mine because i don't even use pain and gain

so many bugs lately..

Well, there's conflicting info on what it REALLY is.

Some say that it's a "this is how much it costs to convert" icon.

I mean if it's not behaving as intended, it's a bug.

#

What that bug is may vary.

errant brook
#

But there's no other place to see how much of the currency you actually have.

#

So, it's very confusing.

#

But if you turned in the quest, you got an additional charge from last week.

#

There’s a script someone posted earlier to check I think

fallen pulsar

if you click the catalyst engine it should show you how many you have

but you have to go to tyrhold
