I ain't paying 80k for flavour pocket

evoker has an aoe rage dispel thats on a 1 min cd i think but reduces by x seconds for how many rages it dispels

#

also is there anything i can do as a prot to keep my team alive aside from rallying cry

rough egret

#

I'd still be paying 80k for it since I could just sell it for 80k

Well ehat else is gold for

Dw, kite

lilac jay
#

so we inv hunter again this week? because they cant die on bosses ๐Ÿ˜„

warm plinth
#

Evoker is quite strong if they use their soothe at the right time

#

Because it gets reduced by 20 seconds every target they soothe

#

So 5 targets means it only has a 20 second CD which is plenty of time before next pack rages

remote venture
rough egret
#

Feral/Boomie will be okay too

#

Boomies can ramp

round pendant
#

Every recraft for me is 15-25k

rough egret
#

But you know

#

They had to use the soothie

round pendant
#

And then they disappear so you can't even get them to recraft it again later on if you get a conc or whatever

rough egret
#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

Ah that is okay

#

I ment recraft, in range of one upgrade

Shadow, Boomie, DH + evoker would be nice comp for this week

round pendant

You want to hover over the Melee hits tho

wintry nymph
#

i figured

round pendant
#

Not just all damage taken

wintry nymph
#

i did

blazing condor
#

yeah 55% melee is really bad

round pendant
#

Then yeah 55% is bad, especially on a patchwork lol

blazing condor
#

ur kinda actively inting if you can't achieve higher with all the talents and help you have

wintry nymph
#

i had a feeling

#

it was a guild who wants to recruit me, but have trouble on that kind of stuff

round pendant

I got 82% on Mythic Eranog and I had been awake for 24 hours, playing like crap and learning the fight

Was his weapon broken?

wintry nymph

How do you guys do the last few packs on AA?

#

I usually just do two double pulls

#

Bottom of stairs + top of stairs

#

then mobs on grass + doorway and run inside

#

howeeeever, someone literally always dies to the beyblades

ionic fern
#

2 pulls.

-4 dudes from below + 3 guys from top of stairs;
-Pack infront of door + pack to the right of door.

#

If someone dies to beyblades that's on them.

#

Cba babysitting.

i have to babysit or the people i play with get poopy with the healer and blame them

yo, anyone know if the wolves tricks has been fixed today in HoV

ionic fern
#

Which one?

jaunty sierra

when you put a caster on the fence

ionic fern

I thought that was fixed already a few weeks ago.

๐Ÿ‘€

It didn't work for me last week either, but I was told it wasn't fixed and I just did it wrong

๐Ÿค”

ionic fern
#

Idk, we tried it on a 23 and diddn't work.

#

Last week.

#

But my route doesn't really pull wolves anyways, so irrelevant.

jaunty sierra
#

I did it monday and it worked well so I don't know

ionic plank
#

I think it still works, the caster just has to be right in the middle of the bollard

lilac jay
#

just play wolves after boss and casters jumping on stone behind wolf boss like in mdi

warm plinth
#

It is very finnicky at best.

It worked for me last week, but the ranged had to be on the pillar before we pulled

spell block for skellies in SBG a bad idea?

are crit haste feet our best option?

would you replace brood ring proc vs AA ring?

i have FF Belt

2330 runs is not a large sample size

if we go by that list

rsham is best healer now

RLP NEW SMBG

sorry CoS only C-tier

@strong forum what are your thoughts on my sim if you can look for a sec?

strong forum
#

the data couldnt possibly be wrong

strong forum
dusky fable
#

would you value 1.5k dps vs brood ring shield?

strong forum
#

dps > 418 brood

dusky fable
#

so swap to my AA ring got it

strong forum

once you get a socket

you can replace the crit mastery ring

with brood

pack it up boys

bear better then bdk

dusky fable

xd

wintry nymph
#

such bs

strong forum
#

be a smart person and NEVER look at subcreation for any kind of lists

#

the only thing you can do

#

is copy DPS PLAYERS talent builds and trinkets from there

#

not healer, not tank anything

#

only dps

#

cuz a DPS' goal is 1dimensional

#

tank and healer arent

frosty mango
#

It's literally just a stack ranking of dps

#

Putting it in an s-f rank system skews the data

strong forum
#

The "tierlist" is just a popularity list

#

That's why rlp is so high today

frosty mango
#

That list is based on dps output from parses iirc

strong forum
#

Cuz it's a quick key to get catalyst charges

#

Based on key

#

So if pally is the only class that does 26s

#

Well, it's S tier

#

If everyone else does 25s, they're a, paladin s

#

Regardless of dps

blazing condor
#

5 tanks pog

strong forum
#

It ranks key level done first and foremost

#

If you're doing more dps but on a lower keylevel, get fucked you're still a tier lower

frosty mango
#

That's my problem with tier lists as a whole, they take qualitative data and display it quantitatively and it skews perception. Just because warrior is "first" and bdk is "last" doesn't mean bdk is bad.

It promotes a fallacy to the community, it's actively dangerous and they should just delete them

blazing condor
#

tldr misleading statistics

frosty mango
#

I will die on the "fuck tier lists" hill lol

strong forum
#

Yes

blazing condor
#

preaching to the choir honestly

strong forum
#

Tierlists are never accurate

blazing condor
#

everyone hates tier lists here

frosty mango
strong forum
#

Cuz to write a good list

#

You'd need indepth knowledge of said specs

#

With huge *

frosty mango
#

There's tier lists on wowhead

strong forum
#

Those aren't made by big brains

blazing condor
#

there will be no tier list that you can generalise to the entirety of the playerbase

frosty mango
#

Go look on a per fight basis

strong forum
#

Tettles and Dratnos may be active alot, but they're by no means experts on all specs and classes, nobody is

blazing condor

kungen is

strong forum
#

It's a clickbait post each week

#

To rack in clicks from casuals

frosty mango
#

Yes exactly

#

It's basically wow TikTok

strong forum
#

Which is unfortunate

#

That money speaks louder than burying poor data evaluation

#

It's the same reason why pwar was so popular until now

median tulip
#

If I have to pug, I will usually take people with decent rating but playing an "off-meta" spec; chances are they kn ow their class better than a FOTM reroller

strong forum
#

Misinformation

#

Pally was always the better ultra key tank

#

But people got baited hard by every streamer and their mom screaming that pwar is the OP must play tank

frosty mango
#

Someone with 5 15+ keys and 4 20+ keys is probably not going to be as solid as someone with 50-60 15+ and 4-5 20+ keys

how good is this thing?

good today

#

got

strong forum
#

Very underwhelming

#

If possible replace soon

With icon/all-totem/whetstone/grieftorch

guessing for m+ its decent

uncut helm

No, it's bad all around at least for prot.

It's not decent

ionic plank

but dratnos said it was good sadgers

golden tartan

wowhead scamming me?

strong forum
#

The only tank it's not trash for is brew cuz brew gets 65% larger shields

golden tartan

i mean i have a puzzle box/hoof/whetstone

strong forum

Then just run hoof+whetstone

golden tartan
#

since im more of a fury main

median tulip

Whetstone is the bomb for M+

strong forum
#

If you really want to, you can run deco + whetstone

But yeh

I go Icon/All-totem in Raids

strong forum
#

It's not a trinket I'd Label as "good"

#

For bosses, you just copy top parses from wcl

Not some dumb compilation usage list

In general, if you want to copy, do it from Warcraftlogs

Not from a compilation website

golden tartan
#

is it me or tjs last pack is harsh af

strong forum
#

It's tjs

golden tartan
#

on a +19 i was getting shred

strong forum
#

That pack is the most overpowered pack in the game

uncut helm
#

The third boss and that pack are notoriously strong.

median tulip
ionic plank
#

blizzard really just said "yeah lets just fuck with tanks" when they randomly put that pack in the dungeon

median tulip
#

I don't mine challenging packs; it keeps people on their toes. Putting it right between 2 bosses is a bit harsh tho

uncut helm
#

Well Sbg is pretty on brand as the accepted easiest dungeon, but triple Shadow slash (might be void slash) in the beginning gets me a laugh any time someone isn't ready for it.

#

Temple really is just where they chose to have that pack.

potent harbor
#

hey guys before i start this week m+ madness, i certainly know want mainly classes which can dispel enrage? but which classes actually can?

#

i beleive its priest with md, rsham with purge

#

but theres for sure more, mbe hunt pets?

split remnant
#

When you look at armory profile of prot wars. Is their Haste stat so high because it includes talent "Into the Fray"? (Increase haste by 2% per ally or enemy standing near you up to 10%)

split remnant
potent harbor
#

@split remnant oh ye i have almost 50 with itf, in m+ i feel like im on perma drums

lime urchin
#

Uh oh

split remnant
#

Yes but I want to know if it shows up on their profile permanently

potent harbor
#

how much u saw?

split remnant
#

Because highest rated prot warriors have 35% haste and I have 27% without Into the Frey (I am standing near noone)

potent harbor
#

35 is without itf

split remnant
#

Thats impossible

ionic plank
potent harbor
#

i have 35 aswell

#

5,4k haste

split remnant
#

They have Higher crit then me, same amount of mastery and higher vers while having higher haste?

#

How is that possible?

potent harbor
#

higher ilvl

split remnant
#

I am 417

#

They are too

#

It has to be with the talent activated

potent harbor
#

sockets mbe when they dont find anything in vault

#

also hoof trinket

#

500 haste free

split remnant
#

Hoof trinket?

ionic plank
#

has 500 haste on it

split remnant
#

Oh he doesnt have that

#

Like this guy

ionic plank
#

can you link the 2 armories you're comparing

#

ok

split remnant
#

I am dumb

#

I can just llook at myself ๐Ÿ˜„

#

Yep

#

its wrong

#

I dont have 34% haste

#

In game

#

I have 27.49%

potent harbor
#

well this is propably with itf u could jsut compare his number stat and eprcentage?

#

not rocket science

split remnant
#

I need to put my mastery down and up my crit I think

#

16% is kinda low.

potent harbor
#

but its actually bullshiet

ionic plank
#

but with itf yours should be 37.49 in that case no?

potent harbor
#

4,5k haste is not 35 haste

#

25

#

so he is somehwere in city and get like few percentage itf i would assume

#

when he was screenshoted on armory

split remnant
#

It shows outrageous haste on every prot war on armory

#

I think it just includes talents

potent harbor
#

well

#

u cna also simply look on his gear take calculator and summ haste on gear?

split remnant
#

He has 200 haste more than me

ionic plank
#

I dont think it includes talents because this is a fury warrior

split remnant
#

He doesnt have that talent

#

Fury doesnt have Into the Frey

ionic plank
#

exactly

#

and he has higher haste %

#

lower stat value

#

but my in game value as fury matches my armory one

#

๐Ÿคท

split remnant
#

I mean they can have stats that high

ionic plank
#

will check as prot later

split remnant
#

Math just isnt mathing

#

how does he have every single stat except mastery higher than me

#

While being the same ilvl.

potent harbor
#

i calculated his haste and it must be with rune

#

and food

ionic plank
#

3 extra sockets

#

that's 300 stats

#

his icon

#

likely counts

potent harbor
#

his haste jsut from items is like 3,7k and he is 4,4k so....i would not take stats seriously tbh

split remnant
#

So how many stats people have is calculated based on their last "place" in real worlf of warcraft rather than it just calculating raw stats?

#

Thats weird.

potent harbor
#

i mean u can count all of ur stats together and see result and compare it with him

#

ill do it im curious

ionic plank
#

i did it

#

wait im stupid as fuck

#

scratch that

#

it's exactly right for you

#

4248

ionic plank
#

idk weird

split remnant
#

Btw What flasks and potions are you guys using?

ionic plank
#

oh but howling rune is on his weapon on armory lmao

#

so that's +310

#

and that makes it, or close enough

split remnant
#

I used to use Glacial Fury. Is it still the best or are you guys using something else?

strong forum
#

Eye in the storm in m+

#

Tepid vers in raid

#

Glacial fury gets worse the more ilvl you have

split remnant
#

It scool how much research you guys do

#

I just press buttons and it may work out somehow

potent harbor
#

his total stats 11045, mine total stats 11686 and i have hoof and whetstone so its 11686 - 1063, which is 10623 he has 3 sockets and i have 2 so difference between me and him 11045-10623-103 for hissocket(so we equalize) which is 319 difference, now my item level is 416 his is 419 but it can be also me is 415,8 and he is 419,4, so i believe this is jsut 319 stats diffenrece from those 3 ilvls, mainly because his ring is 431 and mine is 415 which is jsut by ring 150 stat diff

#

ye makes sense to me

#

percentage on haste can be bugged somehow but numbers are total fine

split remnant
#

Fuck rings

Look at my boy

stray dome
#

hi, im about to start m 10 + and is a bit worried about handling the thundeirng affix. is it primarily my job to clear my own debuff?

potent harbor
#

no u tank

stray dome
#

or do you let dps come tp you?

#

*to

potent harbor
#

dps are supose to stack with healer

#

they totaly dont ened you for that mech solv

ionic plank
#

they changed it recently so that the tank is ALWAYS red, and then dps/healer are always 2 blue 2 red

#

so they never need you

potent harbor
#

like im usually helping pugs because last thing i want see is thunder in my face but jsut when its super safe and no cleave

ionic plank
#

melee can clear on you if it's safe/they want to

#

but you shouldnt move for it unless absolutely necessary

stray dome
#

ok, so its fine to let the debuff expire on myself?

ionic plank
#

as long as the rest are cleared, which they should be

potent harbor
#

ye but as i said dont trust pugs, try to do it by urself when u see melee close to you

stray dome
#

if to dangerous for dps

ionic plank
#

I'd recommend a weakaura to track if others have it

potent harbor
#

and theres no cleave

#

uc an sovle it for them, because i never trust pugs

stray dome
#

yea i have the WA installed

#

ok thanks!

potent harbor
#

but its not ur main job rly

#

ur job is tank, route, knowledge, tempo, survive,

#

and decent deeps

hardy snow
#

I usually let dps/healers handle this, as alot of mobs have some kind of frontals/cleaves its not safe to spin around them, but when timer is ticking close, I just jump into them and dont give a single F if they get hit by any of these frontals wicked

@hardy snow exactly i also jump when its 2 seconds or less, if someone dies go fuck urself bro, like i dont udnerstand why so amny people have tendency solve it on last second when u can do it instantly and chill

#

especially for example NO last boss, he cast upheaveal when u have to spread, ye imagine holding thudnering and get upheaveal(happened milion times to me) so people have to stack for thudnering but also spread for upheaveal ye gj bois

hardy snow
#

but they have enough time to use it and then safely clear

i dislike having to try to find aomeone and then move to them to cleae, cuz it can create someone gets cleaved scenario

Idk where the message to me gone

#

but I just wanted to say your hate is 33% because all your other stats are ass

#

haste*

potent harbor
#

i already made math dont know why u still digging into it, i have 5,4k haste, 3,2k crit, 2,1k mastery, 1,1k versa i feel super nice

split remnant
#

My message wasnt to you

#

someone said

#

that he is 413ivl and has 33% haste without ITF

#

So I said that his other stats are lower because of it.

#

I like to keep my balance, 33% haste isnt good I think.

what about blood elf race can arcane torment negate it?

You do not need Vers

im thinking, last week bolstering, when u have mob with 4-5 stack bolstered can it be compared to enrage + forti combo in terms of dmg? i dont know what expect from mobs this week

dusky canopy
#

Crit is second best

#

Mastery doesnโ€™t hurt

#

Crit/haste is the play and then Whatever else you land on

#

And you switch to itf once youโ€™re high haste because you donโ€™t need hr to maintain shield block at that point

crystal mauve

#

So youโ€™ll get more damage from itf

dusky canopy
#

More than Vers

And also has the added chance to parry

@round pendant well ye i have 22 key so dont want fuck up, guess ill try some 18-19 and see

Would u then avoid Seal of Diurna since it gives no haste?

dusky canopy

I mean sure then Vers would survive better than Crit that is still true

#

But that is not the way

potent harbor

@sick sentinel well more dmg more IP aswell, faster boss/mobs death, less dmg taken

dusky canopy

The way is Crit/haste

it was never a thing

Vers was good in bfa because corruptions allowed you to get 40% +

try 80+

You canโ€™t stack it high enough to make it valuable

jsut paly aggresive im 90 percent time battle stance trying kill mobs asap, when mobs dead they cant do dmg

dusky canopy

before it gets good due to DR

crystal mauve

But when I look at all best players and MDI builds they are stacking versโ€ฆ?

potent harbor

it sounds simple but its right mindset i believe

dusky canopy
#

Dps and healers need Vers to survive high keys

#

Tanks do not

#

At least

#

Not us

potent harbor
#

dps need some vers and avoidance to survive aoe stuff

#

we dont

dusky canopy

Also in the mdi they pull every pack to the boss in a +22

@crystal mauve mdi never comapre they have gear from next expansion and cheese special items which does isnane dmg etc dont ever look on it

dusky canopy
#

@crystal mauve put it this way. If a Prot war plays like ass Vers wonโ€™t save you. And it gives you less overall damage than Crit would so why stack it?
The answer is you donโ€™t. okayge

potent harbor

and play special tactics where they need special stats

#

also crit gives parry chance

See, I was new to DF and followed the Wowhead Prot Warrior guide

@vale dust but the thing is, more dmg u do, faster boss is killed, it maybe doesnt look as much but tis diff if i do 45k st and other tank do 30k st, also IP with 4set returns 15 percent dmg u do into shield, again doesnt look much but if i do 55k overall dmg and u do 40k overall dmg it can be for example 5mil more shield on my side form doing more dmg

patent saddle

yea i got lucky on these gloves

#

ok ths guys

dusky canopy
brittle silo
#

I agree that specific uses like cheat death or something are broken on every ilvl and that doesn't change at all with upgrades. But on the other hand u have windscar which is just hugeassdpsonuse where the ilvl upgrade is required

dusky canopy
# patent saddle ok ths guys

Also one more nit pick, that broodkeeper ring is beans get something with better stats, farm cos ring or something

#

Cheers

brittle silo
#

Removing ilvl from trinkets would require to rework trinkets itself. Windscar in that case should have removed any base dmg and just scale off the player stats

round pendant
#

There's various neat trinkets from world content that aren't used because you'll never get them above like 380 ilvl

brittle silo
#

Which would disrupt player progression path a little bit

round pendant
#

Their effects could scale on your mainstat or whatever else

#

Trinkets are supposed to be utility or extra abilties, feels fucking stupid to have that scale on where you got the drop from

brittle silo
round pendant

It's literally a dead item when it could be useful and more fun things, how is that good?

tropic tangle

yeah, farming world content late into a patch for trinket drops would be fucking awful

dusky canopy

Ilvl is good

round pendant

Yeah because farming CoS 50 times for a whetstone is fun?

cloud umbra

yea, i dont believe a casual player should have the same level of power, even if it's just trinkets

no, but having to do both?

cloud umbra

Id be more in line with making OP trinkets easier to get instead of farming dungs 1000 times

than to remove ILVL

dusky canopy

Idk I donโ€™t want easy to get max ilvl gear

It should be hard

Itโ€™s the whole reason gear drops are exciting

round pendant
#

I'm not saying treat them like fuckin maxed out gear for the season

#

I'm saying remove their ilvl and scale their effects to your overall ilvl or mainstat

cloud umbra

I mean, it does feel completely bad when you have a shit vault 6 times in a row trinket wise, and all your friends are getting 421 whetstones and shit

Hey they aren't completely dead, they were being used in the MDI ๐Ÿ™‚

tropic tangle

lol, just thinking like, cool, two trinkets and a sidegrade would be useless because the whetstone from +2 cos is the same as your vault trink

to make it fair

Unless you're talking about like the potential 418/421 trinkets currently

if trinkets have no ilvl, then a cos +2 drop is equivalent to a maxed vault slot

Yeah

#

I getcha

dusky canopy
cloud umbra
#

trinkets from DF dungeons you'd just spam normal to get it which would feel so stupid

tropic tangle
#

or like having to run LFR for chance at icon / eranog ring

round pendant
#

I like trinkets as a concept I just think it's trash how there's like 6 viable ones

#
  • you're acting like they wouldn't just redesign the loot pools for em
tropic tangle
#

not ring

cloud umbra
#

i can agree with that yam. Bringing the shit trinkets up to the insane trinkets would fix a lot of issues

patent saddle
#

1 of nokhund rings has socket it in cos one doesnt

cloud umbra
#

there's a ton of trinkets in the m+ pool that are just throwaway

ionic plank
#

then a world boss trinket becomes bis and you kill it every time it's up for the entire expansion and never get the drop

tropic tangle
#

^

round pendant
#

solution: no trinkets from world bosses

#

world bosses are shit content

patent saddle
#

i either then equip instead cos ring that is crit haste , or nokhund ring with socket that is vers haste,or 1 can craft 1x ring 418 with haste vers ?

ionic plank
#

that is a good solution

#

unstable arcanocrystal was real cool

round pendant
#

I despise world bosses

cloud umbra
#

same its brainless

tropic tangle
#

I mean, again, the content is there for bridging the gap into M+ / raiding much like other open world content

brittle silo
ionic plank
#

I think you'd be surprised how many people never set foot into m+ and raiding and that open world content is their endgame

tropic tangle
#

so you hate world bosses. good news, you don't have to farm them (or other open world content) for an upgrade past a certain point

ionic plank
#

it could be a cool idea if ilvl was irrelevant for trinkets

#

it wouldnt mean "people who dont do raids get the bis gear for free"

#

because their effectiveness would scale with your stats

#

it would just mean some cool effects that get lost within 1 reset might still be usable

#

but there would have to be some big logistical changes to how you acquire some trinkets (like world bosses)

#

(and quite a bit of balancing work on the dev end so it's not happening deadge)

round pendant
vagrant oracle
#

I mean. It canโ€™t be that hard. Make them like PVP gear and just add the scaling factor ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ seems like the foundation is there.

brittle silo
#

I haven't stepped foot into PVP since 15 years so I honestly dont know what you mean

vagrant oracle
#

PVP gear already has 2 sets of stats. Your reg ilvl and then your PVP ilvl and it scales whether youโ€™re in PVP or not.

Foundations wise though, we already get scaling gear from quests and events like timewalking.

#

I think more the reason they wouldnโ€™t do it is because itโ€™s less incentive to farm new content for gear if a trinket you really like can stay relevant.

ionic plank

there is an argument to do that for m+ entirely to separate m+ and raid gearing hmmNod

#

Its bis dmg dealing trinket.

uneven mason
#

We don't use defensive trinkets

#

They're a waste of space

split remnant
#

:3

#

Just imagine dying

#

I cant

patent saddle
#

ah ok

round pendant
#

I'd rather use burgeoning seed than dstance

split remnant
#

Wait. We dont use D stance?

#

Why am I so bad

uneven mason
#

....you'd rather hobble yourself for a whole dungeon rather than use a cd?

round pendant
#

yes

split remnant
#

Wait. Are you unironically saying

#

That using battle stance is the proper way?

#

Unironically now ๐Ÿ˜„

round pendant
#

I am anti-dstance

urban portal
#

its the proper way yeah

#

why would you choose to do 10 % less dmg?

#

when the 15 % DR isnt needed in 99 % of cases

split remnant
#

Because its also 20% less dmg to me?

uneven mason
urban portal
#

but this game really isnt that hard that you need the 15% DR all the tiem

#

wow damage comes in spikes

#

Shield block gives you like a permanent ~40% damage reduction on all melee attacks

#

AND a dps buff

uneven mason
#

Basically the tankbusters in some boss fights and if your healer is sussy when you do a larger pull

round pendant
#

what do you mean wat

#

It lets you block attacks

#

which is like a 40ish % reduction right

urban portal
#

its not

round pendant
#

It's not???

uneven mason
#

Right but 40% isn't accurate it varies based on your sbv

round pendant
#

Well yeah hence the ~

#

maybe a bit on the low side

uncut helm
#

And mastery, and brace for impact.

#

This seems pedantic

urban portal
#

its a function of your shield

daring marlin
#

BORING

uneven mason
#

Right sentiment, but let's be accurate

#

Tbh I thought he had confused sw and sb

round pendant
#

My point was just going to be that @split remnant will become a better tank if he just goes bstance and presses shield block more

split remnant
#

Idk I feel like I am dying enough.

round pendant
#

Cause I doubt he's maintaining 95% blocked hits

split remnant
#

(By dying I mean taking dmg)

urban portal
#

what key level you are doing

round pendant
#

Taking damage is what tanks do peepoHappy

urban portal
#
