i have a question about spell block btw
what exactly does it work on? and in what dungeons would you actually run it
I just got booted from a mythic eranog because apparently us dying on the chains is my fault
what the fuck is this game lmao
only works on hits, not on dots
TJS, RLP, AV, SMBG are the best contenders for SpellBlock
some use it in HoV aswell for hyrja
Stay in def stance less, AA only has a few scary adds that can be interrupted, elemental one hits hard, dracthyr adds when they do their whirlwind but you don't tank that
yeah planning on changing that
its borderline useless in NO, AA and HoV however
which one did i forget
๐ค
CoS
ye dont play it in cos
PRetty chill in NO if you pug tbh
Hmm, I would say spellblock has equal use in smb than it does in NO
cotank raging at me on eranog cause I didn't drag eranog out of the center at the start
as if it matters
SMBG has a dangerous first boss
in NO its used for less than SMBG
cuz everything in NO can be interrupted/outranged which you can use it on
does warrior struggle on smbg first?
"struggle"
yea ok
you can get fucked by RNG just like every other tank
but we can reflect 1 deathspike everytime
i find the shadow melee on that boss likes to come out after every eclipse, so i just plan a spell reflect there
it often comes after the add dies
same
the worst part is
is when you pop SW, and then you just parry all deathspikes

same with voidslash

parry good
i guess
parry good
I feel like these pug tanks in raids can't adapt to anything
The moment one things go bad, they splat
or they start tilting and blame me even tho they literally griefed me
Pugging is depression
its insane how much you gotta play around inept raid tanks
Dude said to me "don't get on my nerves with your attitude" cause I said it doesn't matter if the first fucking adds spawn in the middle
When you literally have to afk because you grab aggro just by doing your rotation
Literally do not understand how moving eranog to the side at the start does anything but make it harder for everyone to pump
pug strats are wild
had that too where they just kited it all around the edge instead of just outward from the middle
Yeah we died on the chains every time cause of a lack of dps and yet I got booted cause the other tank went to a different add on the chain lmao
idiot proof
the one that was behind fire
Yeah thank fucking god
if they fail on eragon theyre not gonna manage council
Yeah it's a blessing in disguise lmao
kinda like on CD
mostly as a heal i assume?
its comparable to a 30% DR
after a big hit or something
so you can just pop it on boss mechanics
ah
yea makes sense
better to use it than not use it
havent tanked high enough keys to really feel in danger on this guy yet
so that button has gone underused
We were talking about spell block
๐
and not press that either
but gotta make sure to not generate RP with heartstrike either
that talent they're dropping for rune tap is like 15% of total RP generated across a key
yeah its wild
from a pwar pov, dropping resource generation is literal blasphemy
worst sin you can commit
Just press deathstrike 4head
i dont even know if there's a comparison for warriors
Why worry about anything else when you can heal yourself for 500k in one global
in how bad of a decision that is
bloodsurge vs idk
there isn't a button like RT for u guys
yeah
but there's no button that's just pure placebo
thunderlord
that actively harms you whenever you press it
is pretty placebo
Doesnt Thunderlord Even cuck your dps?
cuz it actively desyncs CDs, thus a detriment to your DPS output
very weak on bosses
do I HOLD ravager and tr for adds on eranog
and if you dont use demo on CD, you actively waste CDR from the talent making it worse
for parsing, yes
and play 1min roar
I don't, dps merc them instantly anyways.
lines up with almost all adds
for the ppl who dont know what rune tap does to ur resource generation
naw my groups never kill them fast
imagine dropping bloodsurge
for a button that costs 10-15 rage for a 20% dr for 4s
Then yeah hold and play 1min roar like nom say
that's rune tap
fucking sick button
Should I replace 2 points in bloodborne for Tough as Nails + Instigate?
Wonder if the 20% extra is less or more overall
Yes.
what's the point you would drop for intervene in hov
if intervene is even worth running
pain and gain or intim shout
uuuh for parsing bloodborne is better cuz of add pad
but
lemme see what i ran
oh, i ran what you ran
neat
and on council you drop punish for bloodsurge and change SD to SoF
altho i think if youre gonna tank 2-3 bosses on council perma, youre better to go 1 BB and tough as nails
that should be more pad
how do i check my apm in logs?
Casts
or cpm?
casts tab
looking at logs is a humbling experience
does more haste help have more cpm?
yes, but 56 is not a haste problem
any suggestions for steps to take to increase?
press button in better order

nothing else i can say
its all just press button gud
SS > TC > Revenge
treat revenge as SS reset tool
press IP to prevent rage capping
press offensive CDs on CD
use outburst on SS
keep up SB
thats the mega ultra crashcourse
oh I parsed like shit on council cause I forgot to change my talents
nooooo
I wonder if Barbaric Training might be good on adds on brood
I know that's like a sin but yeah
adds on brood is only about prio dmg
the small adds (atleast on heroic) die instantly
and then youre left with 1 or 2 chunkier mobs
That's true
There's really not that many mobs
would be a more fun fight if there was
Man, I have to tell cotanks "be careful about me stealing your aggro at the start"
and I feel like I'm coming across as arrogant or something
man
dropping BT made a massive difference
cant believe i played with that thing without realizing

was using it on accident man
I blame wowhead
and not familiar with pwarr enough to know the difference
it feels so different tanking tjs on a warrior vs a dk
the struggle points are just different
yep
if you are in discord with the healer and you have enough to cover each hits.. esp this week on fort.. that boss is no problem at all
yeah it's a non issue on fort weeks if you just do the bare minimum CD rotation
omg
I was literally
29 dps from a 99 parse on brood
lmao
seeing reflect! is very satisfying
doing like 60k on the stormboss feels really good
I really want to get two warriors in NO and find out how much damage the followup ability does when the boss already has the conductive debuff but I have found anyone willing to try
you mean last boss?
ya
it's a debuff on the player
so it wouldn't do any more damage than it already does
the boss gets the debuff
you would just have reflect on every strike with 2 warriors, rather than only most of them
when you reflect it
you can get them all if you game it
if you hit reflect 3 seconds before he casts it
on the very first one, then it lines up

after those 3 failed runs in a row yesterday i really needed that
A friend asked me yesterday to tank his cos 23, after a long day on the road and a couple of days not in keys, I depleted the key miserably , I've timed a bunch of 21-23 cos
Sometimes it's us sometimes it's them
But most of the time is them
Hi all, is Unstable Frostfire Belt still better for prot even if we dont have the ring from raid (Seal of Filial Duty)?
It's basically the same as any other embellishment
no hands
well almost timed a 20 rlp first try if feral didnt get hit by 1st boss breath
i did the key i just showed with all 411's and 4set piece and 405 lariat, companion bracers, i also have dmg fire ring and FF belt
My personal hell is everything in the AV rings
Every mf has an unkickable cast that I swear they hold until something around it dies
Sanguine is trash
i stil disagree slightly
sanguie is feels good for good players and feels bad for bad players
It's sanguine week, invite 1-2 people with knockbacks, affix nullified.
Hey guys. So 10.0.7 is soon here and i was wondering if there has been any sims/theory crafting for which primordial Stones we should use. Any idea how big dps gain we can expect?
just play well and LOS shit around corners/down stairs
All of them iirc are actually worse then the secondary stats provided by current rings.
Someone may correct me, but this is what I recall reading on the spriest discord.
Can't really do that in AV on the rings or nok at all.
No one ever fucking does it
The amount of times I type in /say to tell people to interrupt something
is a joke
It feels like when I recruit people, ask them if they can do X/Y/Z etc before the dungeon starts
They say "yeah sure np" etc but in reality it's just gone in through one ear and out the other
gunna keep running sbg 16 for greater infusions probably and until my gloves drop at a decent ilvl or i hit 4k valor
whichever comes first, the 4k is 379-411 gloves
Yogi first 20 when?
yogi after +20 cuz heart attack
What coulda been 
where at?
Teach me your ways
I can't parse for shit on that fight, got a 95
I think it's just a gamble on whether or not the group kills the adds too fast ๐ค
that's 2 16's ive timed tho today sbg or not, everything lower than a 14 i like insta 3 chest, should really work on push
you gotta walk into the fire to pad b4 they die
that fuckin hurts
high risk high reward
Yeeeeah I guess
i olny did 1.10 m dmg spelel reflect in the 16 i just ran
this was a 24 No
put the bear on adds
pwar will handle boss stuff better
but like, whoever is more comfy doing whichever role, tbh
sigh seems like im trying to surpass dalunk's plight, 4 runs of azure vault barely failed in a row
run seemed perfect too only 2 deaths during first trash pull and we wipe on umbrelskul once and it wipes our key
it's not the hardest dungeon but it's the most unforgiving timer
dathea is ass v2
holy shit were repping the 1 platform strat on mythic dathea 
Nah, just gotta have a good route. Timed a decent AV with a full wipe on 2nd boss
Froggos are good count 
And circles are bad 
sure, there are better routes, but compared to most of the other hold W dungeons it's still the tightest dungeon lol
AA and TJS a lot tighter on timer, at least on higher keys
The issue with AV is that it's not easy to just chain pull the packs if you're not used to it or have a wonky route. A lot of groups lose a lot of time due to idling about or running around for packs
Once you get used to the dungeon and have a good route, always being in combat becomes a lot easier and saves ridiculous time
I try to do the crystal fury packs but oh man does it get spicy in pugs
Me in a cos 19 where I just wanted to go straight without no shenanigans and people trying to coerce me into other type of pulls idling around and typing, result was deplete with 20 secs
Yeah, in most scenarios the simpler solution/route is the best one
As long as you dont wipe or half wipe and drag a group/boss to oblivion, simple solutions should be enough for until 20
Assuming very very little idle/downtime and semiagressive pulls not just one mob at a time
yeah. yesterday 22AV hell of a time waste due simple things like dds/healer were not los when i told/mark them or not able to dont do damage on last 2 dracs to skip them. today easy almost 4mins left when final boss died
yes, just be aware of sanguine and dracs (in fortified I usally dont pull 2 dracs due to their aoe)
but in general you have one drac and tons of "we dont do anything"-mobs you just cleave
does anyone have a log for m razageth that I can use as a orientation to prepare?
I only ever find different things that confuse me.. thanks in advance 
does the worm boss do ANYTHIING at all sbg
fought him twice on 16's, both times timed the key and tht boss in particular was just like a total joke
dmg from the eclipse shit that i very clearly failed first boss didnt really hit for that much either it seemed like, matybe 50% hp
No not really
only time i ever died that i can think of was either fort spider breathes and i touched the bone wall once
he needs to have his mechanics or speed or something redone if hes ever going to come back to mythic + the snake/worm
i think the group was even saying to me that when the 2 little adds pop up, im still supposed to just stick on the boss
Yup
thats really, truely, honestly the most underwhelming boss in dungeons in wow i feel
zero threat on TW, zero threat on a 16, assuming not a threat even at 20
probably only even remotely scary at 23/24
the worms melee hits have basically no animation, on tyrannical two hits back to back due to wonky spell queuing is dangerous and can't be predicted.
Hey guys! I had an experience in a mythic+ dungeon where our healer complained I was going โtoo slowโโฆ I normally do single pulls when running pugs just to minimize the chance of accidents. Am I doing something wrong? Iโm not looking for validation, I just want to make sure Iโm providing my group with the best experience I can. The guy was a jerk, but maybe he has a point. Thanks in advance ๐
I could probably push 2 pulls in most dungeons, but Iโm trying to take it easy on my guys.
he means pulling to small when the group has cooldowns ready to kill things
and pulling small on easy groups
i think it depends quite strongly too on if you're having lots of downtime between packs
How would I be able to know when the group has CDs? Is there actually something I can do for that? But yes, when pulling easy groups, you may have a point.
No downtime, Iโm always positioned to pull the next group immediately / right before the old group dies
theres addons that can track cds like omni cd
for example after wise mari in TJS on way to second boss first hallway with adds there is 2 groups of 1 adds, and 1 group of 2 adds, and its almos rude to pull only 3 or only just the first add there
cuz everyone was out of combat for a long time, everything was cooling down
you can always try to group some safer pulls as a chance to improve as a player yourself
i personally use Ability Team Tracker showing my groups CD's i don't really pay attention to that shit and hold W, gets me in tons of trouble with "tank doesn't wait for my mana!"-healer
its only a pain because All The Things, Abillity Team Tracker ATT vs att.... ffs
but dont gimp yourself to appease a pug you'll never play with again
always say hello when invited, but not much else when joning a key, keep real chat/jokes to a minimum, always say GG, thx after a completed key, this is the rules for pugging
Of course not. But I do genuinely hate to ruin someoneโs experience. I came from classic so Iโm still unlearning a lot of that
Thanks for your help guys!
๐ jogi
Most people skip those first 3 mobs after first boss, as they absolutely truck with the dot they apply, so pulling 4 is pretty brave if you're killing them
just gotta kick the 2 sha's really
Well yes, and stun their tank buster, and hope the dots go on good targets
Maybe on a 15/16 it's not an issue
The only moment you should pay attention to your team cds is when you can pull something else to make a big pull on the fly like in nokhud 3rd area, for more scripted keys most people use the same route and the dps should play around what's gonna be pulled not the reversal
goddamn it for the last day ive been trying to improve cpm. ive made to to use outburst on ss, using ip to rage dump, keeping block up, and pushing buttons and trying to be smart about cd usage
but i cant get into 60 cpm the last 4 runs ive done
Anyways at the key levels you're playing a lot of people just save their 2 minutes cds for 5 minutes and have no idea what a defensive is so even less reason to play around them
M+ logs count the time you're doing nothing or walking as active
i didnt realize that. but other dudes are getting 70+ and i'm nowhere near that
im thinking i have a fundamental, core problem i'm doing wrong
If you give me like, 10-ish minutes, I can look into it
take yer time i'm gonna do sbg17 ill tab over and look
At a quick glance, your SS casts seem low, and you're not wasting too much rage, so I'm wagering you're missing pressing SS on CD
er, specifically, missing SS resets
i did realize that i used tc during ss reset procs
thats one thing ive been working to do better. be less button mashy to get the resets every time
You're also not pressing your CDs on cooldown; on top of that, you pressed Demo more than Shield Charge. I haven't checked talents yet, but that should only ever happen if you have Thunderlord
i dont
Yeah, they have the same CD, so their uses should generally be the exact same unless you vitally need Demo Shout for something
in which case you would potentially end up with less demo casts than ravager
ill try to use them more
lets see how this goes
thanks for the tips
tbh its kinda embarassing to not be using all cd's
and i didnt even realize it. so thanks again
lets see if i can make some impreovements this run
at least i'm not over capping and wasting rage a lot. so there's that
Well, you're not generating enough to waste
okay, call's done, so I can hit the rest of more in-depth stuff
Yeah, the pinned M+ build's super solid and carries everything you need
guys in academy when u do big pull around tree, is it my fault that ppl overaggro me before all mobs come middle? i can say it before dungeon, let me make big pull mid, yet half lashers are red before they come mid and im jsut leaping/charging around like idiot
if it was in low keys well whatever but 22/23 ppl still dont know or its rly me? im starting be confused
like i stay mid, heroic throwing, it doesnt even come mdidle all and stack, like never, is it because ppl braindeadly dmg it before it stack up?
I put a marker down on the stairs and stay mounted until I pull the far side packs, then tell the group to meet me about 75% of the way back to the stairs.
oh so u aggro it all in mount hmm
do u pull it even with first 3 flies or u do the separately?
You can let the first flies pass so that you can stay mounted, pull the other side and run back through
It's hard for me to tell without really digging into the log, but you pretty much always want to send Outburst on SS. The reason I say it this way is that Academy is one of the few dungeons where the target counts in a pull can actually pass the point where it's better damage wise to send Outburst on TC over SS, which is at like 8 or 9 mobs or something silly high, so I'd have to see where you're spending outbursts instead of just what you're sending them on. That's also a major change in your rage economy influx
There's a few other things I noted, but I think those that I've mentioned are the main go to's. Also, while not wasting a ton of rage even now, that number can still drop, so remember to slap IP to avoid overcapping more
i wont say i like it more, but wow up works better than curseforge for me for addons
What is your overall DPS in 22-24 keys like ? I don't know why but i feel like my overall damage gets worse the more I am focusing on surviving
Have keys ranging from 45-60k only
Did that 7 ilvls ago allready
If your pulling 45-60 you are pumping
60-70k
45-60 in AA? Is that pumping?
Ye but i asked if that involves AA
AA is 85+
No but i am not around 85 in aa
Maybe in a lower key where I sit way more in bstance
Gotta improve somehow I guess
Tree boss melts this week for us
Then key is too low 
In ultra keys dps will focus on tree dps, not pad on adds
So your dmg will increase significantly
Cuz of rend and deepwounds
Should rend be top dmg in AA?
Shield slam is mostly my top DPS x)
It should firmly sit at 3rd place
Yeah big AOE dungeons it is there
Ive had rend top dmg in AA
Then you didn't press enough buttons
22 AA did 85k
If rend is that high, it means you didn't play well
Ok ๐
2BB?
2 points in Bloodborne
Na
should be 0
Hey guys is there a list somewhere for all the %s needed in m+?
Like Nokhud 94%
HOV 90% (if taking the last two) 92% (if not)
Whats MDT?
Mythic Dungeon Tools.
protesting running 4k valor worth of m+
is there any SBG timer that shows when will void spawn rotate between left and right? I went left bc it was empty and literally 2sec before engaging it spawned back
4k is total and worst case scenario, have 600 valor on me
could possibly do a ring in bags same idea soon ill be done farming valor for sure

I canโt be bothered to farm valor. Capped on all pieces I need.
i could do gloves ring, and double 2 hand weapons
but that shit is 1k a tap for 3 ilvl.....
Ok so dumb question here I have just started tanking on a warrior in keys been using defensive stance felt sluggish and hard to keep agro in packs with big dps just ran a 14 with battle stance felt a hell of a lot better both offensively and defensively so I though I should ask what stance should I use
don't use defensive stance
rotate stances
you will slow your group down if you leave it on
if you feel like you can take the damage go battle
if the pack is hard to tank for you, use def
I felt less squishy in battle stance
if your new to tanking, you never need to take it out of defensive stance until you run about a 15 16 + probably more like 20 key
Coming from a monk tank
I'm 90% of the time in battle stance, I only change it for more challenging bosses (crawth) or when I know I'll be taking big damage
I tank 20s on my monk but way different to warrior tank
monk is kinda similiar to warrior tank, not really
Iโm only just hitting 400 ilvl so a ways to go
your doing keys?
okay, and whats ur ilvl
397
you should be able to run a +10 to +15 no problem
Yeah
Thatโs not the issue
Itโs when I run with my wife who is a 417 ret pally that just tears agro lol
But was more curious about the stances tbh
that's, ... that's fine, jus have to use taunt and big taunt early on trash pulls
to hold against dps burst while u start rotation
Yeah aoe taunt is awesome
417 ret pally will have giga threat spikes vs u
threat gets way better once you get a decent weapon and shield and just push buttons
Any ty for info battle stance
it becomes non issue with a good weapon/shield (and play)
like, you can use defensive stance temporarily for the blast that hyrja smakcs you with between phases
cuz that deals a giant lump sum of dmg
Yeah
Did temple 15 earlier
Was so scared of 3rd boss
But just pumped ip
I out healed the healer
For that boss
but you are trolling tho
frfr no cap
say ong 1 time

is there a working/existing macro for shield charge + charge in one button that doesnt use a stack of charge too when shield charge is up and being used?^^
not that i know
its not recommended to macro them together
as they 2 serve entirely different purposes
Why would it be a trap its bis ring
tyty
i wasn't sure, thought id ask
damn that ring + hate enchant pushed me to 24%
why hate enchant? make love enchants!
xD moment
lmao
Like 24% haste puts sb at 12 s recharge
does spell block work on void slash
yes
what crafted piece is best to get to 418 first?
shield > weapon > lariat > belt > rest
good day, quick question for progress raiding: i am thinking of moving 1 point from ravager to battle-scarred veteran? or battering ram? is that valid? or is battle-scarred veteran bugged still? (i think i read it somewhen months ago, early DF)
upgrade crafted weapon or crafted shield first which has better priority
defensively shield, offensively weapon
BSV is defo big butt ass.
God this will make me a boomer, but what do people mean with the word inting as Nome did above?
Intentionally feeding = dying on purpose
Playing badly on purpose essentially.
is it 34% haste to be able to run ITF over HR in M+?
i mean you can always run ITF
but its more risky to play
for little gain
but around feelycrafted 35% unbuffed haste is when ITF gets really close to full SB uptime
i had 33% haste with or without haste food buff (thats my second/third priority food buff)
tried ITF for a few keys, sometimes im getting the 90%+ block with it, some times not, so, ill still to HR til i have 35% haste
ok thanks nom and yogi
i'm at 33% and i've been running HR because it makes it easy mode for uptime but I wanted to start squeezing out damage
Guys whatโs itf and hr please? Ty
How do they skip? Rogue?
Into the Fray, and Heavy Repercussions
Invis pot or shroud.
Pandas on high fort weeks is big troll, always skip
Bet, ty
It's basically a guaranteed death + they give same % as the double pack north of 3rd boss but have 3x the hp.
thanks for asking so I didn't have to ๐
into fray up to 10% haste based on nearby allies, heavy reprecusion SS extends your active Shield Block by + 1.0 seconds
you can locate those 2 talents here
Can you spell block death claw in tjs and skely slash in sbg, right?
hey guys quick question, were currently progressing diurna and i tend to die on the 4th or 5th solosoak. i dont know if its me not playing correctly with cds and externals or if i should call for people to help soak. how are u guys doing it?
Good to know
But if spell block can enable their blocking then it means I can basically facetank them for the duration, i usually just step back like a little girl and scream but it gets punishing for dps
if your dps know not to do ST stuns at the beginning, you can shockwave the last pack at the beginning to sync up dark claws, reflect all 3, then spell block once any of them start casting again
iirc pwar cant solo soak all of them, thats just reality
Very good tip
Quick question, can you spell block raszageth's breath in final phase as tank?
yes
also, im not sure why, but if i select hone reflexes, i only gain 0.7 seconds from 6.1 to 5.4s cd on SS
thats with passive 47% haste from 5 ITF and haste cheese gear
prioritise 4set over anything?
i'd say its something at top of shopping list, but not the reason you went to go to the store in first place
its a really good idea pick it up soon as you can, just, don't stress if you cant get it
i got 395 head that i can replace for 415 but then i don't get 4set
trying to pug high AV keys has been the most pain ive ever felt
did almost 100 runs for the shield from there
ya nom, i can't explain it in words, but some how wowup is a bit better than CF
just trying to get pugs to do a stop rotation has been just pain

Can Dark Claws be outranged?
Yes. 8yd range
About the same as the bird's peck in TJS?
yes 8 yard on that as well, i looked up the spell on wowhead
bro
no, that one is shorter
Which path do you guys tale for the 9th and 10th rows in the warrior side if the tree for a all around build?
I was thinking avatar and somthing else?
The players on 23s+ and under 22s+ are light night and day, so you still have +2 key levels of that
Take Nome's build, its foolproof
Where can i find that?
In the pins
which stats on crafted items? crit/haste?
Haste/crit or haste/vers, to taste
4 set or 20ilvl increase on headpiece?
head piece has socket ๐
and will be transformed next week
i only have 2
how
one from previous week
ive used alot on my transmog heroic set
one from this
i have all heroic set except for cape
nah i started again playing last week
They only stack until 6 Nome. They changed it cause they didnโt want us to have 65 charges at some point again
Oh, yeah. Thatโs what u meant
then still pick helmet
1 charge every 2 weeks with RNG spark like chance to recieve a catalyst orb i would be fore
after you use ur 6
you dont skip out on actual upgrades just because of setbonus
should i wait for helm and get 4set now or get 4 next week?
surely
i feel like 6 is too small of a number if its a hard cap, 12 would be nicer
you wont do godlevel keys
wil transform the head to tier now then
in the next 2/3 days
allows for mistakes and transmog, or like i said, it rechages
yes
the fact that its capped to begin with is unnecessary
serves no purpose
yes but no, make it something that makes sense
there is always cost to things, mainly time
Wait does the catalyst not have a catch-up mechanic? Like can you get all 6 in one day if you just came back or somethin
I dont think so
same way as the upgrade items from m+ dont have catchup
buddy is farming 50 16+ keys this week cuz hes supposed to tank 8/8M tomorrow on fresh toon
the new item upgrade thing is, i'll have to see it first lol
Dang
in 10.1 the thingy ive been told is basically a combination of 10.0 crafting system and conquest
you still get it passively just by playing
but i didnt waste brainpower on it yet cuz no point
can you link me spell reflect wa?
i dont use any so no idea what people use besides the one linked in pins
wait thats removed
its in #268491842637660160
i mean, i dunno, but i think you have power to pin that shit
Original WA: https://wago.io/IkerOKywU Tells you when to reflect in Dragonflight dungeons and raids. Triggers only when
this one?
I think the new upgrading system seems cool from what Iโve read so far
sounds confusing, i will wait till it drops
It's not confusing
I will say I think items from end of dungeon before +17 cannot be upgraded to max ilvl as far as I know unless I misread
So like if you get an item from a +13 it canโt be upgraded all the way
yeah im just doing 20s, might push higher than that next season
one left
is there a trick to get the Piercing Shard casts from the Crystal Furies in AV to line up? In the whelp pulls I get destroyed because they are staggered and we were running out of stops or into stun immune way too soon
They will never line up cause they are coded in a way that always only 1 will cast at a time
Spell block works and worth taking on higher keys (imo)
oh, that's interesting, thanks
any suggestions on how to deal with those packs as a group?
You can also stop the first 4 Frontals all on your own. SC first, Stormbolt 2nd, Shockwave 3rd, Fear 4th and then other people need to do stops
Engi belt knock back the 5th ๐ฉ
chat gpt is the best thing ever (open in new browser to read probably)
truly an amazing piece of fiction
"the rogue kept getting hit by traps and taking too much damage."
Can make a move script about prot warr too lol
whats worrrying is i could see someone saying exactly this and iut sounds believable
So I need to spec into DPS to get the Whetstone?
Yep
Thanks and SOB. Wondering why it didnโt drop.
Made me tear up
every part is on point except for "the hunter was running out of arrows"
potentially a no brez group
i have solved the mystery, our hero, Thorgar, did not invite a class with battle rez, wait no, he joined into a group that was wanting to run it, so someone didnt check for brez
What are the thoughts on spiteful storm in m+? Currently i'm running icon/totem or icon/boon, depending on the dungeon.
If I dont have totem and whetstone, what would be better to open the vault? Arms or prot(have 418 wep/shield)
Totem would be hc level, whetstone 418
Probably prot if youre going for totem
Easier to farm whetstone + chance of higher ilvl weps/shield
I'll bank my chances on prot then
I really want that all totem trinket
gettin there i suppose
too bad have to delete those 405 ones
Anyone progged Raz on Blue Side any tips for I1 on raz?
hit the boss until its hp goes to 0
tell them more specifically where you have problems there
Interested in healing through shrouds 1/3
Last stand one, IV etc
But not sure if there are any other tricks there.
It's a healer issue honestly
Pop shield wall
Get heals
I'm progging blue side and never even considered using last stand or hs or pot unless they specifically say to use
guys is there something like sated debuff? shaman should use bl on odyn but didnt, but he said he has bl on cd
so how he can have bl on cd but we didnt get bl?
like i want to know so ppl dont gaslight me
ability has a CD like any button that has a CD. this is separate from exhaustion/sated.
or he used it too early when we had debuff?
if you were over time and shaman was the only lust option, you all used it, then cleared sated w/ the sandman, and expected to have lust again, that might be the problem.
I'm speculating with a lack of info here.
no over time
maybe they used it before sated fell off on accident. i dunno, i'm guessing lol
Is there a point where you stop going for crit/haste. Currently 35% crit and haste
All of the lust effects have a 5m CD on the spell as well as the sated debuff
You'll start to get into serious diminishing returns at 40% (not including raw % gained from talents)
well im writing into my notepad next stupid idiotic thing how ruin key, shaman bl accidentally with sated debuff
Ohh sweet Iโm not there yet. Whatโs usually best for AA buff?
Haste
Sweet ty
people make mistakes, shit happens.
I've done that myself on my Shammie; shit happens
@fresh igloo ye bro thats what im hearing each key i go in
Whatโs some good trinkets if I am only doing keys?
Tyty
I have blazehoof and some shield thing from NO
my gloves dropped, but for the paladin who it was ilvl for
i see some top wars even with rumbling ruby
NO shield trinket is bleh
its even worse when its a tiny shield that only procs once per minute
What gems do we wanna use and is there a way to sim/check what you should go for? Im asking since i thought high Versa/low haste is good, so it sometimes procs haste, but then i see quite a few people running the opposite
Just had the healer leave on last boss of temple second the timer went over wouldnt spend 2 minutes finishing the damn dungeon
I use decoration of flame for additional AOE aggro on click and then a stat stick / whetstone / torch / icon depending on situation and group
Whats your guys lust timing for Temple this week? My group did first pull, big aoe pull before last boss but i feel like that waisted a lust
First pack, 2nd boss or trash after second boss, lust last boss unless you are scared of the big pack, but if you mismanage your CDs and wipe there its a wasted lust
It's better to just handle that pack without lust and lust boss after add phase
why tf cant i reset my instance
all players need to be outside
Think ill wait until next week to time this temple, last pack on trash week is horrid
is the eranog ring worth more than the crafted ring?
stats alright?
mastery seems high, crit seems low
hmm
what should i be aiming mastery/crit
I am able to tweek stats
gain 17% crit and 20% mast
that is in Battle Stance
I'm very late to this but there is a WA you can get that announces when someone uses lust. Might at least give you a heads up that you won't have it in the future if that happens again.
proud of you
standaard here seems to be haste > crit
I know wohead guide says haste > vers though, but its definitely less damage
i like sitting battle stance so iwas aiming more haste/mastery/vers
It doesn't really matter. More stats is what we want, with prioritizing haste as a secondary. Ideally you'd want more crit and less mastery but it absolutely isn't going to hold you back.
stance doesnt change stat priority tbh
ilevel>haste>crit=vers>mastery (this doesn't mean mastery is bad, just that it's the least preferred secondary)
Yeah, haste is a good offensive stat and our best defensive secondary
You can't really get 40% realistically. You'd have to run suboptimal trinkets to get it
It's just predictive text-vomit.
And there isn't like a haste goal per se. Just get haste where you can without sacrificing ilevel
sure, procedural garbage in garbage out
i mean, thats really what it is
died to final boss twice
stopped getting invites 16 sbg some reaaon and then got in one with hunter and after 2 minutes he dropped group or kicked me or something
๐ค
spent like 20 minutes just now looking for one
Are you farming SBG or something?
its got greater infusions and my hands, so, yep
free greater infusions that is
cuz none of the bosses or trash do a single thing if you do kicks and mechanic
i have 8 greater fragments right now, thats 2 runs and i can recraft 405 shield into hopefuly at least 4 star 415 i think it is
yuge
No reason you shouldn't be able to find a person to make 418 for cheap at this point, especially if you have mettle to use for recrafts
hi team
qq
how does "spell block" work exactly?
the tooltip says "You are able to block spells for 20 sec."
Does it mean that when I use this CD I block all incoming spells for the next 20 seconds (that are blockable)?
i got full points into shield crafter
No. Normally you can't block spells, this ability let's you do that
it makesfire balls blockable equal to current block chance
Shield block will give you 100% block chance with it
Step 1. Use Shield Block (all through the duration of Spell Block; this should be easy since you should be doing it anyway)
Step 2. Use Spell Block
Step 3. Block blockable magic attacks for 20 seconds.
Step 4. ???
Step 5. Profit
can I block the stoneslam detonation on mythic diurna for reduced dmg?
whatever dude
What does that mean lol. I was explaining how it worked
tyvm, all clear
no reason not recraft my own shield, it has my name on it after all
thats just most recent knowledge pic i have, i got at least 7-9 in belts now
Whatโs the best race for prot warrior for alliance and why? Iโve done independent research but wanna know peoples opinions.
Dwarf/DID for debuff/bleed removals since those are generally the most dangerous things we experience as prot warriors.
Do people usually equip both blazehoof and whetstone together? Im dumb and farmed for both only to realize you can't use them at the same time
Not ideally, no
most of on-use trinkets cant be used at once
That being said, I use two on-use trinkets on my rogue; it's not that bad
Yeah its been a while since Ive had two on use trinkets lol
What should I aim for for my two slots together then? ideally
Whetstone and something passive. If you don't raid, idol of trampling hooves is probably your best option for the other slot
Ruby whelp shell isn't a bad option either once it's trained for ST
Cool, I do also have a rws trained. Thanks
on mythic?
Very much appreciated. Thank you for your assistance.
Any time my friend
Man warrior has a ton of abilities I'm out of room for keybinds
Anyone have a list of useful shift modifier macros you may use
Ty
pack and totem
My keybinds are weird
1+6, ctrl1-6, shift1-6, alt1-6
And qerf with those modifiers too
It's really shit for some things, like how my avatar is on alt+5 and charge is on ctrl+3 and taunt is shift+5 so the finger gymnastics I have to do for my opener is ridiculous
so i just have for keybinds 4 on mouse (plus mouse wheel up and down)
then i have Q E R T Y F G Z X C V
might rebind b to like I and lfg to L
since quest log is now basically m anyways
HOW SIT THO
using /sit
That is sacrilege
The bear person asking how to sit is a shock to my entire world and how I perceive things
man i dont have enough keybinds
there's just like, an ingrained part of me that has understood that everyone who plays bear has a sit/stand macro for the sheer purpose of teabagging people who died
this blows
ima have to shift modify a ton of stuff
or replace my trusty logitech hero g502
i don't care how much of meme or in response to other people it is
g502 is so overrated ๐ค
the words combined is just wrong
if your calling the g502 a spaceship looking mouse
charge is definitely q
i have charge and shield charge to G
for gotta go fast
it was between g and R for ricky bobby
Charge is C smh
yes, I'm calling the g502 a spaceship looking mouse
well here is what the G600 is then
ima have to work on these keybinds tomorrow
or figure out what i really need
warrior has like a million and 1 defensives
got nowhere else to brag but i thought id do AV +20 as my last timed key but here i am, timing it as my 2nd dungeon in a vault completion group lmao
really need to do court of stars, overtimed my last +20 by 1min and we had like 17 deaths (one death at the start of each boss with no brez) and 10% interrupt rate on charging station casts. Seems too free of a key if nobody dies
Charge is mousewheel up and intervene is mousewheel down when talented 
I put revenge on down and slam on up since I spam them
What do you have slam and revenge bound to and thunderclap and ignore pain I'm curious
I hope you mean Shield Slam,not just Slam
The g600 is not even big ๐ค
SS,1
Revenge,3
TC,2
IP,ctrl+f
Yes
I use ESDF to move.
1 Taunt (commanding)
2 SS. (Avatar)
3 Revenge. (Demo shout)
4 IP. (Last stand)
5 dragon roar (shield wall)
A reflect
Z spell block
Q TC (intim shout)
W SB. (Shield charge)
R pummel
T heroic throw
G shockwave. (Storm bolt)
V Victory Rush (ravager)
Mouse wheel up charge (heroic leap)
Shift modifier in ()
People who bind their mousewheel can't be trusted

I use Ctrl plus mouse to cycle through pressed positions
Ctrl mouse wheel up is close mwd is far and click is in between
pressed positions?
Like camera positions?
In-game you can now save camera positions
That's actually pretty cool
I also use control mouse wheel to zoom. No presets
I use just regular mousewheel to zoom
Shift mouse down is intervene target of target
Idk when they added it but I noticed it in keybinds some time after df
Toxic
If I bound something to mousewheel it would probably get spammed
I change camera a lot
So I temporarily set Ctrl and f1 f2 and f3 to save defines positions and call them with the mouse wheel
Defined
Oh I got two side buttons on my mouse too. One is PTT the other is for my trinkets. And belt knockback (engi) is shift + ` (aka ~)
Potions and health stones on C. Stance swap on x
Execute is 6
Idk how you guys can use 1-6
My hands and maybe cause I'm older and was hard on them when I was younger with mechanics and stuff can't stretch up there anymore without taking my hand off home row anymore
6 is heroic throw so it's not like I'm spamming it
does intervene help reduce damage from Hyrja's Eye of the Storm?
I knew that. Shame it doesn't help on Hyrja. I run with a MM hunter a lot. They get kinda squishy at higher keys. Just trying to find ways to help them survive
Just do reverse strat
Well yeah
Tell him to start getting avoidance gear
They have turtle, self heal and the self-mini-rally (dont know the exact mini talent), health por. And then there is you with a rally (In general I pop this in 2nd storm as healer hast BL for first in general) and a healer. That should be enough as a 4th storm means that you have far too less dps anyway
Another day, another 40 wipes on Dathea 
We are in the same boat mate
Heads up, youll do it. We wiped on Painsmith 300 times before kill as we had 3 players who were always desd before 1st intermission.
Somehow glad that I dont raid anymore. Having more time to wipe in m+ keys with pugsโฆbut finally did all fortified 22 and sbg/cos 23 at the werkend. So now 23ff and 22tyra next on list
I donโt mind wiping so much as Iโm worried if weโre wiping this bad on Dathea weโre gonna really struggle on rasz. Now we were missing like 4 core members this week, but itโs still frustrating
You'll really struggle on Diurna*
And only then Rasz.

From everything Iโve heard diurna is easier than Dathea
I mean we have the dps for diurna itโs just gonna be up to personal responsibility ๐คทโโ๏ธ
It's always personal responsibility tho.

But hey, maybe your guild is not as backwards as mine and Diurna is actually easier for you.
Who knows.

Idk, hopefully. Honestly CE probably gonna be more up to us killing diurna in a timely manner. Hopefully itโs 2-1/2 weeks max and we can grind rasz out
I know a guild who is selling 6/8 but they sell Diurna instead of Dathea
Wait what are they selling? Dathea+rasz lockout?
No like, 6/8 bosses
But it's all but Dathea and Rasz instead of all but diurna and rasz
They full clear the raid; they just don't sell dathea or rasz
idk. You can buy individual bosses too. It's not like you have to buy all 6
I was just mentioning it because Mwahi implied Diurna was harder than Dathea, but this guild doesn't sell Dathea because she's a pain in the ass
yeah
Early boss generally means cheaper, so they probably just don't make enough money on her to be worth it, like you say
does anyone know if there is a way to get alerts in bigwigs for breach armour and power attack in hov?
Does it not have them in the options?
it's not showing up in the list of abilities in little wigs under trash in the dungeon
shieldmaidens i know do breach armour as well as mortal hew
it behaves like mortal hew, just faster
but it also doesn't really matter
it is really hard to avoid
you sure?
yes
Yeah breach is just as avoidable as mortal hew
hey guys, my guild tank have that shield block up time in a mythic +20, he is complaint about healing. Is that really bad?
That means nothing. Give us logs.
He is in dstance and running ITF which is a big yikes on a +20.
But. ๐คท
Blocked hits is the number to have a look at
For ras mythic: i looked up subcreation and some loadouts got the interrupting shout. For what part of the fight i need it? We only are on p1 progress. Do i ae taunt when the sparks spawns and i already have aggro on ras or is it for the intermission?
hi guys wassup
i,m new in wow 11rd day to playing ,,,
i reech m+15 shadow moon burial and that skeletons in erly one shot me with void slash from front of my hero
and befor i die i was activated shild block and ignore pain and avatar
what should i do there ?
i watched youtube how tank protection played in they dangen m+
i tryed to ply like him and do the spells one by one and i died
they're worth to use defensives on if you wanna face-tank them (shield wall / last stand)
otherwise you can step away from the void slash and it wont hit you
just back off cus it has a short range
they're easy to kite
you can also use spellblock for those mobs to heavyly reduce the voidslash dmg for 20 seconds
and you should start kiting when your out of cds - those mobs hurt specially on fortified weeks ๐
Intermission and the Sparks.
BIg toe vs blaze vs Horn of valor, which 1 would you use?
hmm make sens
cuz i,m new ,, i thinked TANKS is one man army can hold anything anywhere ,,,
but in m+13 more up ,,, only Tactic matter
u mean this can save me ?
i will try it soo
it works like shield block but for magic damage
interesting
also spell reflection give me 20% magic rressist for 5 s
i didnt know that ,,,
this one ?
or this ?
Started writing this earlier and got distracted but, void slash can't be backpedaled. The mob keeps moving while casting it, so without a significant slow on the mob, you have to full on kite the ability to get out of range in time
i know i chos that ,,
i ask about avatar talents
Don't swap UF to IO.
cd tunder clap is better ?
Yes.
ok
also i have revenge tlnt for tunder clap
when i use revenge give me 1 s cd or tunder thats cool
i think i need more haste
cuz my tunder clap cd is 4.2 s in avatar
๐
i mean i need use it fast but i need use my defensive too or shield slam for rage
Thunder Clap is every other GCD in Avatar. Your haste doesn't matter.
Then you're not using UF atm.
I tanked a +16 this week on my prot paladin at 367 and I tank 16ish keys every week on my warrior at like 397?
Think you'll be fine
Just do low-ish keys to start, figure out where you're messing up (logs help immensely for this), and then once you iron out the fundamentals, work your way up
