I think I know what's hamstringing my damage though
yea but i have annulet and eranog's
Do we still send OB on TC in aoe with 4p
which does suck for secondaries
Even with SoF?
Doesn't OB TC do more damage than an SS after a point?
that said, i hate when i want to use OB on SS and im just watching it NEVER reset CD
like in mega target count
then i send it on TC and insta SS reset
yes OB TC is good for dmg
That's what I mean, usually when I'm in a huge pack that we're lusting and it's like a triple or quad
but it not very frequent that its that good
nobody said anything about issues
but like i said, i rarely send it into TC
unless its an oversized pull
i find there's a shitload of prio targets anyways
How do you check only OB use
where i pulled like an absolute mongo cuz i wanted 120k overall
do that
it shows casts done with outburst active
and well, you cant cast TC or SS with outburst being active and not consume it
WCL aura filter is top tier
And I know my overall is dookie
Probably gonna watch the replay
Seeing how people operate helps me
But I hate streamers
Can't suffer more than a couple minutes of them at a time.
thats without aura filter
depends on who though, some are pretty good
like im undersending TC and revenge a tiny bit i guess
if i wanted pure overall maybe?
but like
still r1 log so
I feel like pulling like that means you’re just fulfilling your true war rpdream tho no?
I almost never pot keys beyond HP/invis
thats my whole reason of playing wow
doing fat overalls as tank
and living my raidboss life
Haha
And I see storm gem, was this an older key?
2 days ago
Is it genuinely still worth using annulet in M+?
wait Shadowed Impact Buckler?
this is what i miss about Legion wpvp as prot (before the mega dmg taken nerf we got)
annulet wins for me until 7 targets
ignore that part
Literal garbage, stay away from it like the plague
i could do like 5k dps more
Yeah lmao
sitting outside of kara with 15 ppl on me not doing shit was so much fucking fun
by just getting better embellishs
Pots are massive though 👀
that's why im baffled
How do you check target breakpoints
okay well 3-4
i sim it 🙂
alot
very annoying
aoe apl is also updated
so should be within reason
i wish i had a reason to not wear it or eranog ring, but i dont >.<
I don't want to go all the way to the dracthyr start zone to swap for raid
just make 2 rings
i just dont swap for raid
Yeah
yes
ya
what
you can have 7
Bro what the fuck how
just buy another one on the stone vendor
Yep vendor that sells stones sells it
you buy another one near the anvil shit
So, you said 7 targets is your breakpoint for storm-specced annulet
dude huge i just found out you can buy another annulet
I could probably assume most people are gonna be around there.
well fwiw it's not intuitive to know you can
yes
mine
yeah tbf i learned about it at the start of 10.1
with my gear
but healers often have 2
on 7 targets
its equal to 441 + 437 crit haste ring
on 5 targets its 2k dps gain over 441 ring
Yeah, but I can probably wager there's not enormous variance, although I'm only 442.
i cant reliably replace annulet until i get a 2nd socket crit haste ring for m+
what about eranog ring w/ socket?
So you're telling me I need a socket on both my 441s to finally be rid of this thing?
At least for M+
"only 442"
i've simmed a bit, but not as extensively
eranog ring gets replaced by 437+socket ring
im 436
with wrong/shit embellishs
i need to get fat rings, ugh
Then I'm definitely lowballing myself.
FML just let me get like 4 more sparks already
I'm in meme mode rn
Oh yeah that's today huh
you mean in 13 hours after the 12 hours it will take to get in due to server issues/congestion
You guys wanna know something insane?
I have had people compliment a Skyhold emoji
The server without global emojis
It's actually 
diablo 2 and possibly diablo 1 (i didn't play it) are the only good diablo's
I can't imagine there's enormous swing in it, though?
Like maybe up or down a target, maybe two
Or am I just totally off
not an enourmous swing no
Have you played the other two?
at best 1 target diff
What's the DPS loss if you use it at the "wrong" threshold?
diablo 1 seems................................................. primiitive. is the word taht comes to mind
but like, in an endearing way
3-4k on 3 targets then -1k per any additional target
annulet caps at 3 targets with storm
Quick question. The boss from halls of infusion where you need to destroy the shield with the adds that Spawn, you need to get out from the yellow circles from them?
The WA says to get out but don't understand why
dont they fuck you up
if you tank the circle explosion of the orbs
i swear they would just destroy your ass
no?
they do a non-zero amount of damage iirc, yeah
the size of their circle is a non-zero amount of annoying as well
im absolutely getting the fire horse and horns from trading post
Honestly. I'm pretty sick of these affix's at this point. I've been in moments where everyone has died, I'm left with the boss, it's got 2mil health I could solo it easy and boom... Incorporal... Boom... Afflicted. Just urgh
yeah its really nice that blizz is all for inclusivity except well
except for a few classes
Exactly. Livid mate, absolutely livid.
agreed
ppl say its nice cuz we can ignore them
meanwhile im here thinking its shit cuz i can do nothing but watch the car crash
Yeah mate! Echo'd.
hey friends. im doing some sims just trying to compare if i put shadowflame on my shield or my shoulders if it would make a difference.
I have the same exact items on for both sim options, just moving the shadowflame enchant from one piece to another.
Same stats + gems + enchants + and 4 set on each.
For some reason Shield emblished is simming 3k damage higher than shoulders emblished. can anyone tell me why ?
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/oXqdSYV1qH4P8w6G6Kckgj
i knew one would obviously beat the other sure, but by that much ? BIG difference.
I died in stormwind and used spirit to rez and cost me 1600g to repair
issa bug that it sims that high
if you slap shadowflame on shield + somewhere else
it just bugs out and oversims by 3k
Yeah I was gonna say some of it is the 6 ilevel on shield but it should be like a couple hundred dps at most lol
LMAO ok ty friend <3.
So in ur view, does it matter where u put your 2nd shadowflame ? i have on on waist & choosing 2nd next.
❤️ kk ty god
And professionally 
Always forget I'm Blacksmith and can repair most of my gear for free
@strong forum 5 MINS
im in
Brits aren't even in the EU 
damn, i didnt realize frog boys did a 10 and you die thing, i didn do the key but
Are you dense?
Must be.
🤔
I mean we're not in the EU but we are in Europe. 😂
Britain literally isn't in the EU
I just assumed the best and that's what he meant.
Who said I was talking about THE EU.
Like, well ackshually people are unironically the most annoying people.
He made a joke about them not being in the EU though.
bruh lmao
i lost brain cells looking at this other screen
Calm down breadbin.
It was just a joke
What are the 2 best embellishments For tanking?
It's all in the pins of this channel. 🙂
Shadowflame
Just got my prot war to max level and first heroic dungeon I ran dropped forgestorm 🍀
Hadn’t checked bis lists yet and had to bring the dungeon to a halt while I read the proc like “is this real life”
Nice!
Hello, quick help I'm having troubles dealing with the refti custodian ads in Uldaman ? The ones that apply the jagged bite bleed
Trucks
Ty
You can't quite backstep it but if you semi-kite it you can avoid it. I just pull them around the room in a circle at a slowish pace
hey, whats up with homelands raid horn? Its shown to be good but when I use it it does next to nothing (I hit the puddles)
it splits dmg with everybody whos in it, including you
ah maybe thats it I actually just tanked it^^
but is it still that good its BIS for M+ on the guide
I run with both NL trinkets atm Dargrul and the shield one
idk what guide you're looking at, but it's definitely not bis
wowhead guy is cool but he doesnt really frequent this chat iirc,
so
check out icey veins
ok
thats our very active @ionic fern
is icy veins better in general atm? I used it in the past and was told wowhead is better^^
The most up-to-date information will almost always be in this channel/discord.
Idk what that is
Is this that weird murlok site
it not necessarily "Better" its just that mwahi is active here him and nome communicate
no wowhead
if you go on the prot warri
and just scroll down
and press mythic+ at top right of talents
otherwise like Gnash said this disc is the most up to date information
The Faq + Pins will give you everything you need to know
if it doesnt ask
For basically every class it’s discord > whichever guide is written by someone on the discord > the other guide
only 23 gold for repair after a dungeon in which i didn't die + some WQ
I've gotten more BoEs from raid than Tier pieces
anyone else having weird threat issues with Zskarn? My co-tank keeps taunting off of me only to have the boss stay on me, and vice versa--no idea what we're doing wrong
our DPS is relatively even so not sure what the issue is
i have actually had that happen on a couple bosses
Need logs to know for sure
rashok fun fight
@warm plinth i'm 3/4 tier pieces!!!
GL J!
heck nope

do catalyst'd pieces keep tiertiaries?
yes
save my old pants it is then
does anyone know why on Forgotten Experiments when the Deep Breath guy spawns he immediately casts Deep Breath? Is it like a timing thing?
thats certainly odd
i havent had that happen
in either normal or heroic
did you guys just delete p2 or something?
i dont have mythic exp so if that's the difficulty then maybe someone else can chime in
but from what i can tell it shouldn't happen in mythic either
I don't think we're ahead in dps personally
or at least the videos ive seen
and yeah its mythic, all the videos its not happening but it happens to us sometimes
hmmm...
the only thing that rings a bell
and kinda goes with what you mentioned about timing
is if you dont think dps is ahead, maybe its too slow
kinda like SBGs 1st boss (dps too slow on adds, abilities overlap -- same with dps being way too fast on adds)
is talisman of the cragshaper deedee megadoodoo?
its good defensive wise
hmm ok i dont see anyone even using it on subcreation
see pins
yeah cause most people don't care about defensive trinkets until they do a boss that giga fucks them
worth keeping at least
i miss when trinkets were bis for dmg and defense
just in case you run into that situation and then can plan beforehand
Hey everyone, I have a question, I just opened my Vault and have "Overseer's Tactical Cleaver" and "Baumaul's Putrid Splinters" in it. The question for me now is, should I take the weapon or the trinket to 441. Since my weapon is currently "Tongue Picker" and my trinkets are "Ominous Chromatic Essence" and "Protection of Faceless Wrath. Which makes more sense to take? Thank you in advance for the help
it wasn't
I don't even know what those trinkets are besides essence, so that's not a good sign
Even wowhead doesn't know what Baumaul's Putrid Splinters is
Or the faceless wrath one
Baumaul is Treemouth
Protection is ward
and Tactical Cleaver is the Haste Mastery weapon off of zskarn
Are you German?
ahhh
Yes sry 😅
I was like how does this dude list two trinkets I've never heard of
good old google translate is how
Anyone got a plater profile that shows the CD's on mob abilities? I had one like that for S1 but it isn't doing it anymore 
it's not a profile it's a wa
If both weapons go to 441 then no real reason to take the weapon. And idk, the trinket could be better than what you have but still a defensive trinket, which we don't need. Might be a socket vault, unless you want the treemouth trinket just to have it as an option.
Yeah you're just gonna swap ward and splinter if anything based on situation, it's really not a great vault either way.
I figured due to baumaul lol
Ah found it thank you jordan
yw
Treemouth trinket is solid if you’re in a situation where you’re getting pounded
what is your weapon's current ilvl and can it be upgraded to 441?
its a timing thing i believe
i dont know the exact timing for it but theres a few good push points for that fight
sounds good ty
yeah that's what i mentioned above
it makes sense because its a 3 boss fight i suppose
where one goes inactive so its abilities can get delayed or end up overlapping
so gotta watch out for slow dps and/or fast dps
obviously there shouldn't be any overlaps in that fight
so stuff just ends up happening sooner and/or later depending on your perspective
No, the current weapon only goes up to 437.
What.
That's a lie.
I'm a silent stalker.
Mwahi doesnt even play warrior 
Jep.
Oh, Late is still alive
Hello Late
Late woke up cause D4.


same
i might play it later if it goes on sale, which probably wont happen for a while
just for the story if anything
im not a big arpg player
hi ily
Friend of mine bought it for me a while back but I'm probably not gonna end up playing it for a while
16? Damn.
any WA u recommend for warrior ? one that track abilities mainly
ive fucking hated the latest single player FFs
but this one is in good hands
since yoship is producing and the ffxiv music guy is doing the score
I like Sense's personally.
I know a lot of people also like Nomes.
i suggest trying a lot of the WAs in wago
i use nome
yeah its giga personal
thanks

using that one currently, its a bit messy .. just hate looking at it
dont get me wrong it effective with all those huge icons, but come on its so ugly
Do some people/would that make sense to precast last stand with 4p
I kinda vibe with sense's buff bars
You know what else is personal @lusty grotto
Oy lads does race mean a ton now n days or..
His love for classic?
No point min-maxing it.
okay glad we are on the same page
Has race ever mattered outside of PvP?
now to decide what looks best with a shield
If you're not playing a dwarf with heritage armor, skovald shield, and a flail, are you even playing the game?
Blood elf for mm+
Pretty much it afaik
Yeah but it was never actually required outside of giga high keys, and that hasn't been a thing since Legion
Thanks :)
Top tier warrior races are dwarf, orc, Tauren, human
dwarf and vulpera you mean
Pick one of those 4 (I don’t count ally races)
Oh ot doesn't silence anymore? ._.
No, it purges now
Mechagnome
It was changed going into BFA
They should give the silence to mechagnome lol

prob just going orc here
Even if it's single target
So wr can play pretty races again! :D
But yeah it should be like
Just so I can see a bunch of people hate life
Electromagnetic Pulse
have never been able to do te hooves on the cow

Vulpera are too much of a meme to be taken seriously
Tauren is awesome because your shoulders look huuuuuuuuge.
I love Tauren in plate, but they're so damn big
What? This little fox dood is your tank?
Honestly though, if you're going to play a short race, play goblin
They look sick as pwar
is this serious
Taurens lack of shoes and insane size makes em ewww towards them
Goblin deez
Goblin is awesome
I remember being a gnome in Siege of Bolarus and getting hit by the 3rd bosses frontal because apparently gnomes were short enough that while other races WALKED in the pool, gnomes SWAM in the pool.
Lesson learned.
Short races are bis
Can't find my short classes in big packs
doesnt matter, DR on first hit is pretty big
If you can't find your character..then neither can the enemies.
Look at this cool motherfucker
Some of the water in De Other Side was the same saj.
I mean he's not mogged
Pffff looking at racials to decide race is so warlords of draenor
It's fine.
i guess we should throw dwarves away then
I'm the most basic warrior there is.
Naw, dwarves look swag
Human?
Human is a solid race for anything
appreciate it all but going orc without the back issues
Dwarves are dumb and ugly
It’s a one size fits all race
Bald like you!
Not slander. Imagine being the only short race I dislike
Worst
Do it
Ignored.
I like dwarf warrior and hunter
I can't, i'm too much of a nice guy.
Not a fan of dwarf casters
except dwarf shamans you mean
Everything else is a bit sus
Or there’s a way better option
Like paladin is belf or human
And I guess Draenei, but who plays Draenei
I played Draenei paladin.
But i got stuck when using my steed in doorways.
Which tilted me too much.
this is why i sympathize with the spacers so much as a lifelong tauren
doors are overpowered
I have every class that a gnome can play at 60. Waiting for the next xp buff in the middle of the month
what's the most braindead better than average dps right now?
Evoker
I had a feeling that would be the case
id dissagree tbh - i find their rotation somewhat challenging.
How do yall choose defensive trinkets without simming and using your brain
or do we just as a rule of thumb go for 2 offensives
"Am i playing well and still dying?"
"Am i using externals?"
-Yes? Use a defensive trinket.
-No? Don't use a defensive trinket.
yeah i asked 4 discords they all said evoker
HAAAAAAAAAAAAARD.
41 APM , half of which is one ability.

And that's the R1 evoker on the first boss.
yep that's how i judge it. If you spend almost half your time hitting one button, you're my type of dps.
Def trinkets should be more appealing and maybe only works for tank speccs. I like the idea of the first boss trinket but it rarely does damage.
ok size queen
ok thats bad
Should be some option if you open the settings for that specific WA.
Like "GRoup size" or something.
Can't remember what it's called.
Damnit you deleted it
thank you alot
yes

DPS some mobs, make some pancakes, think about world peace, all in the space of a minute
Ghash
dont forget to aspire to form Nazsuro the unbound legacy number 48th billion
🐲 A 🎺 triumphant 🎷 roar 🐅 echoes 🔊 from 😤 atop 🔝 the 🤘🤣 Seat 💺 of the 🫵 Aspects as Nasz'uro, the 🫵🤘 Unbound Legacy is formed. 🐲
I'm uncomfortable
warrior 4pc set bonus is nuts, just did a 18bh with 90k overall
I am still confused with the nullifying devices on the boss of halls.
We need at least 3 to destroy the barrier, while we are destroying them we can be inside them circle? It does damage or we need to put the devices on the boss and keep moving to not be inside of too many circles?
No idea if it does any actual damage. I usually just pull them into boss and SHockwave stun them while they are exploding while running out.
There is damage, quite a bit when it explodes and if you're in the explosion it silences you for 4 sec.
Upon being destroyed, a Nullification Device will fire off a Nullification Pulse. This pulse inflicts 147748 Arcane damage and silences all players within 12 yards for 4 sec.Nullification Pulse also removes one application of Ablative Shield if it strikes Watcher Irideus.
There are two casts that the orbs do. Purifying Blast while they are alive, and Nullifying Pulse when they are dead. The circle is the radius of the Nullifying Pulse. It is perfectly safe to be in while they're alive; just make sure you move out of it after they're dead before the Pulse goes off.
So just pull all 4 orbs on to the boss, and as they die, just move far enough that you're out of that one's circle. I usually just kinda make a circle around the boss as they die to make sure at least 3 stay on him the whole time.
Thank you very much
what did you guys craft as third item? was thinking about crit/haste ring or cr-wrists
neck
crit/haste ?
ye
the catchup feels very fast
i played my alt for like 2 hours worth of actual content (keys/weekly wq stuff) and got all 5 catchup sparks last week
yer mwahi doesnt play
Shield and belt were first two. Made a ring this week and next week probably engi wrists. Have a 447 neck already or id craft that
I'm going to craft a belt today, but still doubting if frostfirebelt or primal molten + shadowflame, i check pins but still not sure haha
🎵 In the end, it doesn't even matter 🎵
Probably i Will take frostfire cause is cheaper
wtf do DHs just have global threat or what
just did Assault and a DH was on the opposite platform
and he kept getting agro on the new mobs that spawn
imagine being in a fortified week and dd's are still to slow to switch to totems in brackenhide 😄 its just crazy
welcome to pugs
ye
but on a 21, how can this still be something i have to progress again and again 😄
cause zugzug
the amount of random BL presses are insane atm - every other dungeon someone fatfingers it
I don't get it.. I just simmed my 421 Icon and 434 iridius fragment vs a 441 magmammoth scale and the ones I have equipped won out
it also simmed my current trinkets as better than Neltharion's Call to Chaos which I got on Heroic
Hey guys, quick question. At what point should i stop hard prioritizing haste? I'm at a comfortable 35% without into the fray right now. (m+)
It feels like a waste stacking more of it since i reached the soft cap
7100 rating is when u stop
Allright, so a ways to go then. Thanks!
Are you simming Icon with all the buffs?
Because i'm fairly sure you won't get all the buffs.
I think it also got nerfed a while back?
is P1 of Neltharion based on DPS or time?
ither or
not good for us
Wdym P1? Like when it ends?
yes
70%
yea ok
so the amount of "rooms" is based on how good the grp dps is
if we get 3rd calamity strike in P1, means dps is bad i guess
3rd fissure
it doesnt matter
u should ahve enough room to do a lot of it
like 4-5 fire circles tbh
ye but i wanna start P2 on the add right?
i mean u dont have too
u can just break a wall so u can get through
also on phase all the walls drops
so u can just move to an add spawn point
most of what I do is M+. I have Magmammoth Scale, Iridius Fragment, Icon, And Neltharion's Call
what do you think I should mix and match
scale and call
in pug this will get a shit ton of people seperated 😄
but ye
am i wrong if i think the walls are different in P1 than P2?
maybe im just seeing things
they are different
as I said the walls go down so u can move to the adds
then new ones spawn in
same in P3
yea
Hello, quick question regarding the recommended build, it recommends dropping bloodsurge/punish over battering ram to gain spell block. Is this for dps or is battering ram more mandatory defensively than it appears?
u dont drop battering ram
yes i'm not sure why though
because its really strong
u can drop it if u want
but just like punish and BS u loose something for spell block
ha fair enough
and BS and punish are recommended because they are the least impactful to drop
well BS is
punish is pretty substaional but in m+ your mosting only stacking it up on 1 target anywa
Glad to help
51 Vortex runs later, I got myself the trinket!
ye
maybe he just likes flaming tentacles?
Since Heart can't really sim (as you don't take dmg), how can I find out the best offtrinket for dps?
Would it be Neltharion or Magmammoth scale?
Or should I sim with one trinket and fix the other slot
because SB isnt something u just press without thought
IP u use alot
if u macro them together your just going to be sending SB and not have it for when u need it
Ok ty
I just have them on 2 & 3 if I need to press both for some reason it's easy
But you can already have SB 100% of the time (and even more easily with bolster now), why caring with this then ?
show me alog with 100% blocked hits
also
just because u can
doesnt mean u shouldnt
bad habits are bad habits
get used to them now and they nerf any talent we have
ggs
now u have bad habits
and cant keep shield block up near enough
and complain that u keep dying
If you know this then you adapt
I don't use addon so I can't show you but the duration of SB is always high thanks to heavy repercussion
im srry but your never going to convice me that having a macro for SB and IP is ever going to be a good idea regardless of if u need to press SB once a fight its still a dumb tthing to do as u use SB in different context to IP
u dont run this anymore
and its not an addon
its not hard to log
also if u sont have an addon hwo do u know that u have 100% uptime?
ppl tell me they have 100% uptime all the time i look at a log they dont even have 70% blocked hits
Because every time I see the duration in my buffs the duration is +10s (sometimes less but never less than 4s)
so they couldnt have had 100% uptime
I do
In BFA what i did to learn was: Incoming melee dmg the screen flashes red, incoming magic damage the screen flashed blue. If it was block-able it had a bite sound effect attached to it, if it was reflectable it had a banana peel slip sound
I am sure that two weeks ago the recommanded build runned it, but it seems it is not the case anymore
now, todays weak auras i use just displays IP if my rage is "too high" and makes a noise if rage is way too high (a beeping noise)
Did you do this manually?
Thankfully there's a wa that calls out all reflect able spells
But it would be nice to have a better feel for magic vs physical dmg
the banana peel really helped me
cuz im slightly more auditory in some regards compared to visual
There's already so much visual clutter that having weird audio cues like that is really helpful
This is stupid
like, if you explain something to me with words, that makes the least sense of the 3, audio is something i can memorize easily
Rage economy is a real thing
Why would I waste 70 rage in one go
If I didn’t need to press shield block
Or if I only needed to press shield block
Not to mention it’s one extra bind
We don’t have that many keybinds
Shield block is a super intentional button to press
wait is the current argument that they don't want to have a separate shield block keybind

it very common
You’re literally just wasting casts of it. Especially if you’re in a raid environment
ppl think warrior has too many
not really sure you can engage with this since it's not really on good faith terms
not to mention he has no logs
or very misaligned expectations on how seriously the game is meant to be taken
Actually there is more than these two skills in my macro
And about rage, shield block is only 30 rage every 12 seconds, it is not a big deal at all
Then they have never played Brewmaster, Prot Warrior has so few keybinds
more than just those two
Wtf
Brother what
bro what is in your macro?
LMAO
What the hell are you macroing

Someone check the year and if this guy's IGN is swifty
I don't want to tell it anymore... 😔
It isnt bad for the rage tho isnt it? Its just bad because you dont want to waste SB just like that I guess. Whenever I find miyself spamming it I always come short at the end of the fight.
It can be bad for the rage
Like let’s be real. You have charge, shield charge, shield slam, thunder clap, revenge, shield block, ignore pain, shield wall, demoralizing shout, heroic leap, dragon roar, and last stand. That’s 12 binds
That's just one additional reason
avatar
Ok 15

fear
Griff...
channeling shout
If current builds don't run heavy repercussion then I agree
But the last time I looked it was still used and so I could just use it on cd and have 100% duration time
'wrecking throw /shattering'
Sorry I just woke up a few minutes ago
Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should do something
Or as my mother put it
I’m just talking things you’re gonna press rotationally. You can literally be lazy and not press those
I use 28 buttons and have only a Laststand+Shieldwall Macro (wich i dont really like but im used to it) and a Stanceswap macro
again regardless of what u preseeve we cant actually tell as u dont log ive seen logs with ppl with all 4 block talents and they could get more blocked hits than me with 2
Just because you can jump off a bridge doesn't mean you should
This is my first mmo and I am here since november I just can't sorry
Which honestly is better to me than using a macro
so please if your going to come in with a disagreement please provide proof
and not well u already ahve 100% blah blah blah
That’s just a poor excuse
youll get used to it tho if you get a mouse with extrabuttons but in my case i even vound hamstring GS healthpots trinkets etc.
You’re never going to improve if you “just can’t”
i used to be a clicker and a bad one at that
Stance Swap macro is fine, a lot of people use them
Macros aren't inherently bad
if u dont want to improve thats fine
Sometimes you have to push yourself and add more buttons to see what works
but then im sorry that kind of invalidates your input into how and best practices to be learnt
But you have to understand what macros work and which ones don't
I don't know how to log
But I am sure that if you try heavy repercussion you will habe 100% as well

Yeah its good I just meant the last stand and wall macro^^ The stancemacro is the best think, ever i think It just swaps between your 2 stances I use it on all specs
Upload to WCL
i already have the shoulders 🤔
It's easy
i have 90-95% blocked hits without HR
and boots is mastery hmm
i dont need it
i was thinking Neck, and then craft Shadowflame Wrist maybe
so i get rid of Lariat
@jagged pier
Exactly, using them to reduce button bloat is a real thing. But stacking buttons that are intentional presses that shouldn’t be combined is a different story than something along the lines of using one button for transcendence and transcendence transfer depending on your modifier.
the neck is garbage
I've added double my keybinds since Legion because of adjusting dumb things I was doing.
ye ok so any other neck is better?
so i guess its a socket angle 🤔
the crafted one
what is HR?
Heavy Repurcussions
So why you don't believe me if I do run HR
I’ve never seen an HR log with 100%
the crafted neck? wdym?
because ive seen the logs
Like literally never
of ppl with all 4 block talents
the cap stone for SC ED HR and bolster
and they still all
gm
had less blocked hits than me
By 100% you don't count the off combat part right ?
Ty King
Correct
wait my belt lost my S1 socket 😄 didnt even notice
Not to mention you're cucking yourself with your macro, it doesn't matter that you're running HR
yes
Why would I count time not in combat for block
even tho they told me that they had 100% uptime
Ahhh I have to admit tho when i was bad ad managing shieldblock i was afraid to drop HR too but the haste ist so much better
Well, taking logs aside, you also said your evidence for this was "well whenever I look at my buff bar, SB is always there". That's not exactly solid, sure proof to back up your argument.
Haste directly helps shield block uptime
right and that takes us back to the original point of the arguement @urban bramble its bad to macro IP and SB together because its creates a bad habit of managing SB
It's always there with a lot of time remaining, it's not like it was close
yeah its just git gut i guess? its time to get used to and just play it
anicdotal
literally anicdotal evidence
and your whole disagreement with me is ah there no point in managing thing because x y z
I’d be very sure that your uptime is lower than you think
but u literally have provided no proof
and said yourself uve just started
why disagree with me when i literally im trying to help someone to get better and not form a bad habit
i dont get
Tbf, for a lot of games, playing for 7 months is an incredible amount of time
it just so happens that for mmorpgs/wow, it's nothing
Not trying to be a dick, but you’re literally hamstringing yourself
Let me tell you a story @ashen coral , Jakey and I disagree a lot, but right now I've never agreed with him more.
So you're in trouble.
Bit of a different mindset since this guy says himself he is relatively new to mmos
Like you’re going to be way overcasting IP or shield Block and killing rage economy for less revenges meaning less shield slams
It's good to train yourself out of bad habits, but you have to be willing and understanding that it might be more difficult at first because you aren't used to it. Ex. I used to be a keyboard turning clicker and trained myself out of it mainly by rebinding A and D to be ability buttons and not having a keyboard turn option available to me at all. Made me much better in the long run, but getting used to it was hard at first.
Hardest part is not just saying "fuck it" and falling back into old, bad habits.
Because I thought it was admitted that 100% uptime was achieved since I saw other peiple tell it and myself never see my shield block off
So for me, even though I get the point to bad habits if there are nerfs, I don't see the problem to bind the two together for now
We all started somewhere I was a shitty keyboard turning clicker too at one point
but can you even run sidewards then?^^
Strafe was never rebound
Werent we all keyboardclickers at start?^^
What's your toon name?
I just told you a problem even if it isn’t a problem for shield block uptime
the other ppl telling if 99% of the time are lying because we find their logs
and they arent even close
ah ok I forgot q and e are strafe i have abilitiies on those
See this message
Having bad habits in general is... bad. I'm not sure why the disconnect.
u never ever start out just because u can
u need to get the basics correct first
Arceried
My uptime is usually around 90% to 97%. I rarely see 100%
starting out giving yourself a crutch just because u can
That's like in dreamgrove when people swear up and down they're playing right and then they link a log and they're swiping more than mangle and thrash.
its literally pointless
Not even pointless, it's actively harmful even now considering it impacts rage economy
"It's only 30 rage" that might be rage that would've been spent on a revenge to pop a SS reset
^^^^
It's easier to focus on the dungeon if you don't have to focus on binds
So in the case when you can (apparently I was mistaken) I think it's beneficial
I feel like a broken record since I’ve been saying that for the last 20 minutes lol
well taking the rage side out its pointless to just learn to play the incorrect way from the start like u arent going to start a platformer and then keybind so your dash and jump keys are on the same bind
its not going to help
Unless you have arthritis or carpal tunnel you should bind everything and just get used to it. Haha
You shouldn’t have to focus on it long term
That's habit and playing. I don't think about my keybinds.
And I'm doing 20+ solely
u get used to dungeons after your used to the class imo
It's not that hard
or learn at the same time
Ya
I could tell you all of my keybinds and what ability they're tied to without even logging into WoW. It's second nature.
I found a log
just to get used to keybiinds
And you were 90% uptime vs. melees. @ashen coral
I don't have problem for a lot of bind when it's cd
But when it's part of the rotation it's harder
Except I found one from last season
There will be some growing pains and just uncomfort when adjusting to getting used to keybinds
But long term?
Where's he running HR
Totally worth it
How much was I ?
...is that big macro literally just every GCD button thrown together?
No because it wouldn't work
Just because he didn't log doesn't mean someone else in his dungeons didn't
My macro is Avatar + demoralizing shout + SB + IP (and it used to have last stand as well before)
That's a macro
1-6, qer, cxf, middle mouse click, shift middle mouse click, side clicks of mouse and mouse wheel. Shift mouse wheel up/down.
Boom
Just added a ton of binds that are easy to get to
When IP's duration is low or when SB can be used
Or if I have one of the cd
How do you track all of them
If you've got the money buy a 12 button mouse. Takes a minute to get used to but, makes life nice and simple
How long have you had this macro @ashen coral ?
Did you have it for this key? https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/F8fqYzm7jVMxXQhH#fight=47&type=summary&translate=true
I still have the spells in my spell bar, they just aren't binded (except with the macro)
Since the beginning
Approximately

If your question is if your log is relevant, then yes it is
Yes
Well there ya go @jagged pier
Indeed I didn't think of mouse wheel up/down
To add to Griff's. You can use ty, g and z as well.
I'm shocked you have wasted rage with this macro, but you do which means it's not even serving it's purpose.
What is ty ?
T and Y
Some one else gunna need to look through it logs on phone is garbage
Oh, you were right
Strange that
well yes, you're not the first person who has ever thought that they could just macro all their off GCD things together and make it work
who woulda thunk it.
what you need to understand is
this game has been around for a really long time
and there have been many reds (everyone was, at one point)
Hey i was worse than a macro er i clicked everything
i never did that but i was definitely a keyboard turner
@ashen coral just so you can see a sample of my keybinds
1=free bind (literally never replaced it since legion after devastator)
2=shield slam
3=revenge
4=ravager
5=dragon roar
Q=storm bolt
Shift+Q=shockwave
E=thunder clap
R=shield block
X=avatar
C=charge
F=demoralizing shout
Shift+F=intimidating shout
Middle mouse click=shield wall
Shift middle mouse=last stand
Middle mouse left click=spell reflect
Shift mouse wheel down=rallying shout
hell I was a touchpad gamer at one point.
This isn’t all of them
When I first started playing wow it was touchpad gaming baby
But it’s all the ones that are easily accessible to pretty much anyone
Thats worse
Not including mouse keybinds for people who don’t have a 12 button mouse
point being, pretty much this exact discussion has happened before and it'll happen again in the future
everyone goes through the same learning mistakes more or less
Thank you for the advice, but how do you move ?
^
If anything get used to that first
I forgot a word sorry
Then start on key binds
i wish I could relearn ESDF keybinds instead of WASD but it's way too awkward to change now
You don’t even need to rebind strafe to a+d just getting used to holding right click is enough
ESDF such a based keybind set smh
OK so the reason why this specifically is bad is because you're going to inevitably send shit when you should hold onto it (because you're going to be hitting it for IP and SB). Even disregarding the rage economy points, there are times where you should be sending shit on cooldown, and times you shouldn't. If you have two mobs left in a pack, and they've got like 5 seconds of life left, you're going to waste Avatar and DS when they would have been much more useful going into the next pack. Or send DS when it would've helped holding it 10 seconds for a big non-physical damage spike you're about to take. Etc. I can think of 30 different reasons to not include all that in a macro.
If you'd like help setting up different keybindings, we all have different ones so just try shit out that works for you. You want to have binds that are most comfortable and easiest to hit with some other ones. I have like 40 and shift/control mods for all of them but I rarely use all of them.
That being said I’m converting to just rebinding a/d to strafe because being able to mouseover and heal and move completely while not requiring my mouse is kinda big
U should
Been messing with prevoker and it’s changing how I do things a bit
I'm a q/e strafer
but i'm also a poe/league gamer so i'm way more used to my hands starting there
I've been turning into a Valorant Andy lately 
LEAGUE
qwe movement. 12345rtfgadvb are my binds + shift
I see your point
But for avatar and demo, is it really bad if I bind them together (but without IP and SB this time) ?
Yes
I use zqsd movement because it's azerty and not qwerty in france
You should have the option to hold CDs if you can if that will be beneficial
See above
It might make your life easier at the beginning but if you want to improve at the spec you will have to remove it anyway so don’t even start
WSQE for movement, and then AD`1-6, RTYFGHZXCV, 6 mouse buttons, and Shift/Control modifiers for all of them
Ideally you bind together only things that have the same effect with the same timer that you will always use together. Let’s say a dps trinket with 90s CD and a 90s Offensive CD outside of this there is scenarios in which you should delay some use etc. For avatar/Demo the problem is they don’t fill the same role and not have the same CD. While Demo can be use for damage most of the time you might need it for the DR and delay it’s use by a few sec because you already have Shield wall running.
To use an example of a good macro
WASD, qerty, fg, zxcv, 1-6, ctrl+1-0, MB3,4,5.
I've got plenty. I camera strafe.
Fury doesn't have cooldown reduction on Avatar, and the Vial trinket from Underrot shares the same cooldown, so that trinket with Avatar in a macro is perfectly fine
fuck
You're never using one without the other snyways
the shadowflame patch is better 1 or 2 ?
You can have one or you can have two, yes
On the same vein, you have the same CdR on Ravager and Recklessness so binding then together is fine as well
If you raid I would recommend 2, the damage is quite strong
I have a Ravager macro to drop it on top of myself. Wound me up having to click it down.
