getting a lot of passive aggression from people in pugs

like they view me as a liability

In my experience Apb, the complainer is usually the problem lol

I agree just feel a bit demoralized when prot pal seemingly really does do everything better than prot warr right now

i was ok with bdk being immortal in sl

The only problem Prot paladin has is it’s the wrong Prot

toxic pewter

but this pink tank.. i cannot help but draw similarities

uneven mason
thin phoenix
#

bdk is the 2nd highest represented tank lol

toxic pewter
#

well yeah i know but theyre not like s3/s4 sl bdk

daring marlin
#

The similarities begin and end with having a shield bro

thin phoenix

but weirdly on my MW i have yet to play with one all the way to KSM

#

how can you guys talk about other tank in our holy arena of blood?!

uneven mason
#

Paladins just do everything, you're not wrong, it's a marketing ploy to get all the anime lovers back to wow

#

i was a sicko shadowlands enjoyer but public perception of warriors was way worse than it is now

uneven mason
toxic pewter
#

its just frustrating, I find tank group utility wildly imbalanced

I guess

well there is a real situation occurring

uneven mason
#

Not really

toxic pewter
#

I mean I can go and list it all

#

but now prot pal mitigate and cant die better than us

#

that used to be their weakness

mighty valley
#

if we did more damage than prot paladins, suddenly the "utility" arguments would wash away

yo does anyone else struggle with dps/healers dying to the magmawave on elephant boss in neltharus? :/

Are y’all actually having a bad pug experience compared to Prot pally?

i just don't pug.

I dunno. First two weeks I would strugglebus through a 20 but at this point if the group seems like it's gonna waste my time I just say nah, next group

always a struggle to decide between crit and haste enchants heh

You guys take for granted being in this discord

The negative stigma for prot warriors is 100% justified

modern brook

10% is 10% bull

daring marlin
#

It's like THE proactive tank

fresh igloo
modern brook
#

Remember like 2 years ago when 90% of discourse was "no please stop IPing, you need to use shield block" and now its only like 40%? and thats only cause its so beyond free to maintain 100% uptime

daring marlin
#

Have you seen clueless warriors in the wild?

toxic pewter
#

ya I have

fresh igloo
#

I mean there's clueless everything in the wild, not sure if that's making a serious point?

toxic pewter
#

when I play arms, the prot warriors I see are usually kinda bad

dusky canopy
#

I love that we don’t have to actively choose between ip and sb

#

So much better

#

S1 SL

latent steppe
modern brook
#

like IP and sb exist on it

#

both compete with the same resource too

fresh igloo
#

i mean I GUESS... but blocking everything you can when you have a shield just makes sense to me

modern brook
#

If you walk into prot war with no background you can very easily just fold to everything

daring marlin
modern brook
#

other tanks are way easier to just pick up

daring marlin
#

I don't expect it considering you started with I mean like a contrarian douchebag.

fresh igloo
#

or maybe you could be more clear about your point? it's kinda tough to tell between the jokes and the serious here some times.

#

ah. ok. so it's like that.

daring marlin
#

Bro. People think it's a choice between IP and SB.

I’ve only done that for parsing

All bad tanks are bad

It's just more easier to see a bad prot warrior than a bad other tank

Negative stigma is fine guys

Buffs when?

#

Remember in the middle of BFA when we were actually gods and then they gigabuffed our tank passive by like 30%

modern brook

That's why they did that

uneven mason

Bring back melee range heroic throw and gag order

Anytime my co tank bear and I discuss things I’m just like reflect bro

Hi guys, i don't understand how do you get 35% hast. On our tier set there is not so much hast on it. Other parts only have 200-300 hast. Some parts have close to 1k hast but one or two.

dusky canopy
#

Healers we’re getting away with slack before

#

Much harder to slack now

final mist
#

"But Sal look at the IP amount thats too strong" and I'm just proving a point to the healer arguing with me by flipping back and further between not using IP and not using SB in like a 23

dusky canopy

And or otherwise completely ignore stats and sim every single piece you get and equip what the robot tells you

cinder nova

"like wow looka t how much healing IP is doing bro its so busted"

Tanks can and should be doing as much damage as they can when they aren't under duress.

modern brook
final mist
#

Unless there's some real degenerate parsewhore strat, it's just how good you push button + maybe how lucky you are

cinder nova
#

And if you're playing right and have the right gear, you should rarely be under duress except for some real ballbreaking content.

Echo is just parsing

If your dps suck at aoe you parse good

If tank trinkets did good damage based on mitigation while also being designed to prevent degenerate tactics like deliberately standing in shit, then they'd be good to use.

For amalgamation chamber mythic, do you run into the other tank to reset stacks? Or..prob not no? Too much boss overlap. Maybe just a melee? Cause I believe that’s the mythic mechanic

damn near 0% chance your average +14 pug dps is doing 150k dps

#

If you play properly

cerulean copper
#

Got it.

dusky canopy
#

And as blordfango said

#

Good info

cerulean copper
#

And in the situation where I'm the tank that has a boss stack, which deals magic damage, but I'm not tanking the boss.

dusky canopy
#

Then you don’t need SB active so you would press ip

#

But only ip to not cap rage

modern brook
#

SB should still be maintained for its offensive benefits

dusky canopy
#

Otherwise you prefer revenge

modern brook
#

but you would still be IPing

cinder nova
#

Am I high or should we be trying to stun stomp on 3rd boss of Uld

dusky canopy
#

Wo wo wo

#

Since when are you keeping block up when off tanking

#

Am I really miss playing that hard?

modern brook
#

since it became free to maintain block 100%

dusky canopy
#

Oh well yeah that’s true

cinder nova
#

But also damage.

#

30% SS damage

i read about wowhead, nothing wrong with that BUT this trinket kinda feels stronk. can use it for progress mythic bosses?

My priorities are getting trinkets and tier in my video game

DAMNIT

#

Are there any Warriors that are having difficulty keeping aggro tanking along with a DH?

daring marlin
#

I just need to kill heroic sark, not get beacon so I can take the beacon out of my vault

dusky canopy
#

They blast with 4set but I haven’t encountered an issue yet

daring marlin
#

like damn bro

dusky canopy
#

My bear can’t either we started tricksing him

Lmao

Yeah I always tip threat in pugs

uneven mason
#

wtf

dusky canopy
#

He’s like 90-95%

daring marlin
#

What in the actual fuck

#

Tell that guy to press his buttons

vital arch
#

why do you even want threat that bad just taunt when you need to swap and let a zug zug boy old the boss

dusky canopy
vital arch
#

my grapple goes brrrrrr

#

I tell pug tanks to let me go first

#

prot warrior opener just pumps, but if you’re ripping threat midfight then your off tank is wasting resources or GCDs on bullshit defensive abilities or just not clicking his buttons.

cinder nova
#

My pal cotank rips me in the first 30s critcake

daring marlin
#

WoW just needs to nab Shirk from XIV.

cinder nova
#

I'm actually salty how good paladin is this patch

latent steppe
#

BIG INFO: If you are a dwarf warrior then hammering this anvil grants you +%20 versa and bonus beard beauty

vital arch
cinder nova
#

I'm not unhappy with warrior, because we got through the rebalance and talents pretty clean, but the rework on paladins is so laughably overtuned.

#

Maybe it's just Chaos that's enabling it

daring marlin
#

negative

#

It's prolly 2/4pc, might(maybe?) and speccing full ST for raid.

#

They have some absolutely cracked ST talents

#

just lose a fuckton of tankiness

cinder nova
#

Their passive survivability is pretty stupid

vital arch
#

lol I just swap shockwave, for SS cooldown, and shout for imp heroic leap like an idiot and pug heroic. How bad is that lol

cinder nova
#

Nobody takes shockwave for raid

vital arch
#

I’m still on s1 2pc so I keep revenge spamming so I don’t spec in to execute

cinder nova
#

I dunno what you mean by "speccing" execute

quiet minnow
#

Idk how bear would lose threat

#

Also lots of tanks have a weird mentality with just sucking shit at dps and thinking it doesn’t matter idk

#

Dh does good enough dam you shouldn’t be ripping off them if they taunt and then follow it up with basically any decent dps button

#

If they taunt and then just stand there and maybe hit 1 defensive then when taunt falls off sometimes you could rip it again

uneven mason
daring marlin
#

Even doing subpar damage having threat ripped off you is so weird. There's still a 300% threat modifier for three seconds after you taunt!

#

Like you gotta actually be semi afk

near steppe
#

Suviving is secondary. Dead bosses dont do dmg

uneven mason
#

But there are exceptions everywhere, I was ripping off a paladin in a normal pug

#

Like bruh, hit your buttons

toxic pewter
#

i ripped aggro off vdh pretty hard last night on heroic sark, he kept saying i was taunting im like yeah.... no. did double his damage lmao. he blemished my name to the raid with lies

you get gear from world content

use that to get a foothold into m+

lusty grotto
#

are we taking void slash down to the void on heroic or just yolo mit it like normal? or what are we doing

#

i might as well get a kill this week

dusky canopy
#

Uh probably buy crafted gear, jump straight into +11s and normal/heroic raid for tier

torn gulch
#

crafted gear still requires him to get some whelpling crests

dusky canopy
#

Huh?

#

Just craft pieces straight to 437

#

Or 447

torn gulch
#

he just came back

quiet minnow
#

you can get 411 gear from random heroics

torn gulch
#

did youa ctually read?

quiet minnow
#

just do random heroics till like 400+ then do +2s

#

move on from there

dusky canopy
#

Bruh you can just craft straight to the higher tier

#

It doesn’t matter if he just came back

torn gulch
#

dusky canopy
#

Battle

won't this cause me to take too much damage?

dusky canopy

In low level content especially you will never die because you were not in d stance

Nope, you really only go into defensive stance during bursts

Like, during the breath in HoI? DStance that shit

dusky canopy

Or walk out of it

you can walk out of breath?

I actually strafe it yeah

are there any good auras for managing stances?

But sense has been saying S key lol

That’s why I did

A lot of people say you can "backstep" things in here when you actually can't, so it's important to clarify.

Fair enough yes you are correct
