Freehold is also cool, pull 180% of trash just because it does nothing and you like big pulls.

blazing condor
#

oh yeah we get FH and UR back

ionic fern
#

Someone told me you can't tank the last boss in the corner anymore since it resets.

#

Yes/No?

blazing condor
#

in the beginning i didnt see people do it

#

like when they tested it

jagged pier
#

i dunno im just killing that pack before the boss anyway

blazing condor
#

you have to pull pack before boss

#

now

#

so maybe thats why

blazing condor
#

more space and shit

#

pack pulls with boss now

ionic fern
#

Ewww.

blazing condor
#

will people still do the whole BL 1st, 2nd and Ring strat

#

harlan 3rd and sharkfist or whatever his name was last

jagged pier
#

u can

#

but harlan is now a joke

#

they changed the fight

blazing condor
#

makes sense to do him without BL then

jagged pier
#

i mean the only hard boss is the second

blazing condor
#

ye

#

i only really played in 8.2 so idk how the meta shifted but youd just clear shit towards the ring to get BL back

#

then do 2nd

cinder nova
#

holy fuck DPS are braindead

blazing condor

When can i drop T29 Tier piece??
You can drop 4pc once you have 2 items which are 15+ilvl upgrade each or to get new T30 2pc
You can drop 2pc once you have T30 2pc/4pc and/or if you sim higher without it

hardy snow
#

why specifically two itesm 15+? and does it matter if its chest/helm/legs vs gloves/shoulders?

strong forum

cuz 4pc is quite alot of value

I heard this recently, and thought it was a nifty fact: Joe Biden's date of birth is closer to the end of Lincoln's presidency than the beginning of his own. (78 years, 2 months from birth to inauguration, 77 years, 7 months from birth to Lincoln's assassination)

forgestorm rly that good? I have a 437 forgestorm (got to upgrade it after crafting a 447 shield - the rules for upgrades are kind of bizarre but I'll take it).

#

Hopefully the shadowflame patch isn't overhyped as well, stuck that on my new shiny shield

#

That feel when you run a 16 Nelth instead of a 17 Nelth and can't upgrade to 441 tho 😱

crude notch
#

wait what

jagged pier
#

yer but it doesnt matter

crude notch
#

a 447 shield made it so you could upgrade your 1h?

jagged pier
#

thats not how it works

#

i believe

#

u need to have upgraded a wep to the same ilvl

crude notch
#

yeah no that goes against the dw rules

#

ye

old sinew
jagged pier
#

did it cost u crests tho?

old sinew
#

It did not

jagged pier
#

🤷

old sinew
#

It would have cost crests before I crafted shield and then didn't after

crude notch
#

that seems, wrong

#

i wonder if it works for OHs in general then?

jagged pier
#

yer that seems wrong because u they arent the same slot or wep

#

u didnt get a higher ilvl wep at some point even 2h?

toxic gyro
#

Sounds wrong bc I upgraded my weapon to 437 and shield im working on atm requires crests

old sinew
#

I had a 437 one-hand axe, and upgrading forgestorm said it required crests to upgrade. Then I crafted the shield, and the crest requirement to upgrade forgestorm went away.

strong forum
#

did you get a 2h weapon

crude notch
#

wait

#

that's why

strong forum
#

cuz you didnt have both slots filled

crude notch
#

You had a 437 one hand axe and then got the shield

#

so you got 437 in both

strong forum
#

^

#

its either 2h or both mainhand + offhand

#

same is with rings and trinkets now

#

you need 2 items

#

before its free

old sinew
#

upgrade shield ---> discount hammer. 🤷‍♂️

strong forum
#

because you had

#

a

#

437

#

weapon

#

you need

#

both

#

before its free

toxic gyro
old sinew
#

I mean either way we take it. Getting to craft my shield and then upgrade my hammer is two birds with one stone

crude notch
#

except it's not

#

you already spent the crests on a weapon

#

Or looted it at 437

#

You didn't kill 2 birds with one stone, it's two stones.

#

If you just had that shield and no 1h that was already 437, you wouldn't have been able to upgrade your forgestorm

strong forum
#

well if he had upgraded forgestorm before crafting shield, hed have to pay twice

#

just got lucky he did it the other way around

crude notch
#

lol right

#

almost had to kill 2 birds with 3 stones

Now we pray to Ion for tier in Vault

I've just read discussion about upgrading onehand after crafting shield, so Im reading it correctly that If i've already upgraded my wep to 437, Ive wasted some crest as I wouldnt have to use them if I had already crafted 447/437 shield?

Q:Which Embellishments should I use/Spark should I craft on??
Sparks:

  • First craft should be Shield to get a 447 Shield as it is your most important defensive item
  • ilvl upgrades that arent tierslots

Embellishments:

  • 2x Shadowflame Armor Patch (Boots/Belt/Wrists/Shield)
    or
  • 1x Shadowflame Armor Patch (Boots/Wrists/Shield) + Unstable Frostfire Belt

The difference between the 2 options is negligible, Belt grants the slow, Shadowflame does a TINY bit more dmg depending on your gear.

Q: I want a bis list!
BiS lists are a thing of the past because of the RNG of Vault and depending on how much of the raid you can clear on mythic.
The only notable things that are listable are as follows:

  • Any 450 pieces from raid
  • [Treemouth's Festering Splinter] from Brackenhide Hollow
  • [Beacon to the Beyond], [Elementium Pocket Anvil], [Zaqali Chaos Grapnel] (offensive ST trinkets) and [Neltharion's Call to Chaos] [Ominous Chromatic Essence] (offensive aoe trinkets) from Abberus
  • any ilvl upgrade

Q: Which dungeons should i play Spellblock?

  • Neltharus and Uldaman
    Most keys have little to no magic dmg aimed at the tank so Spellblock is hardly useful outside of those 2 Keys. Halls of Infusion it can potentially be somewhat useful on the section between 2nd and 3rd boss around the heavy caster area, but outside of that theres not alot going on either. Same goes for Brackenhide

you gotta keep in mind that you do give up defensive capabilites so its not just a pure sim question

raven zealot

do you think a 424 enduring dreadplate is worth it over a 405 whetstone?

there was an argument that if you were bad at pressing button, that annulet was better for you, how does this come in to factor

with what you have just discussed

because, with nomer, i know he's expecting top level or high level game play

Don’t trust RIO - 2 things a) they’re not showing your actual top runs and B) they’re retroactively imposing the new timers on your finished keys

Regardless this shit is a huge tangent. My pointwas that 17s are easy, saying that BH is too easy because you can finish a 17 with melee dps because of the boss nerf is a pepegus take

strong forum
#

for those that clear mythic, you dont want to craft it on shield

old sinew

There might be a shield from raid

I would say not applicable unless you plan on farming the raid on mythic

#

Shield is big value early on

brave jungle
#

How long do we expect that the primordial finger is going to be viable for?

dusky canopy
#

I agree,
shield+shadowflame makes a lot of sense for most prot mains that don’t mythic raid or won’t even have a chance at the 450 shield until towards the end of the tier.
However if you like to multi spec war then putting it on an off piece as suggested also can make sense because obviously you wouldn’t use the shield in off spec.

#

Kinda gotta use some of your own common sense to determine what’s best for your situation

brave jungle
#

@dusky canopy Mythic +?

#

Probably a long time too?

dusky canopy
#

I will probably run it on tyrannical weeks for a while yeah

#

Stats are technically better in aoe though

#

I’m assuming the same stipulations apply this season, if you’re not consistently doing “top tier” dps then the ring is an upgrade

#

This is because you wouldn’t be able to get optimal value from the stats otherwise

#

Ultimately sim it against whatever rings you get

#

Use your best judgment or post the sim here and ask

old sinew
#

Just use the ring because early on you will make mistakes more often and have to divert resources to defense more often and therefore a proc will get more value than stats. Imo

dusky canopy
#

Well tbf

#

Stats are better defensively

#

The ring is only for padding

#

But yes I agree

#

Chances are the ring will give you the most value

#

Unless you’re one of the 40 people who can play better with a stats ring lol

I’m not saying you need stats to live

i have a question - how do you maximise damage of thunderous roar in m+ pulls? as in: stack it with demo shout&booming voice of course, but:

  • do you revenge first? (10.0 setbonus)
  • do you (e.g. with trinkets) stack main stat? any secondary stat?
  • ???

i seem to get anything between 6.9k until 11k per tick quite randomly...

Whetstone is cracked but 441 or a 447 heart should be beating whetstone for sure
