to figure out what i have to do

#

so dropping BSV to get Battering Ram

strong forum
#

oh you didnt even touch the boss yet?

broken juniper
#

nah

strong forum
#

then going full turtle is the worst idea imo

#

always go max damage

#

until you cant

waxen frigate
#

Based as fuck

broken juniper
#

lolol

waxen frigate
#

And true

strong forum
#

cuz that way youll figure out the ACTUAL breaking points

broken juniper
#

not sure my guild leader would like that tbh

plush tendon
#

honestly, just can probably get away with a lot by just swapping to DStance during combo

waxen frigate
#

Why use defensive if you don’t need defensive

jagged pier
#

if your not comfortable calling and cordinating externals u only need spell block

plush tendon
#

use spell reflect for the fire slash

jagged pier
#

nothing else

SR on its own isnt enough

Does earth strike do shit to warr

It slapped me good as brew

strong forum
#

nah

jagged pier

no

#

u block it

waxen frigate
#

Nice

strong forum
#

with a lucky critblock you could eat 2x phys

#

probably

jagged pier
#

no it does like 10 mil nome

waxen frigate
#

And you can wall once every set at least right

dusky canopy
#

Shit I have to do the weekly for the half spark item don’t I

plush tendon
#

yea, its a one shot if you take two in a row

waxen frigate
dusky canopy

…….

plush tendon
#

theres no living it

waxen frigate
#

I don’t think ur living that

strong forum
#

10mil, reduced to 2.5mil, then LS+SW

#

could be close

jagged pier
#

its 10 mil after block

#

im pretty sure

#

like its dumb

modern brook
#

just block it again jake

strong forum
#

10mil after critblock?

jagged pier
#

not after crit block

waxen frigate
#

15mil after stagger on brew fwiw

waxen frigate
jagged pier
#

but i took double earth once i had block up and im sure the damage was like 9 mil

strong forum
#

anybody got a log of it im curious

jagged pier
#

can have a look from last monday for me

#

we had 4 ppl quit so havent raided this week

waxen frigate
#

on Zskarn?

jagged pier
#

nope

#

didnt kill rashok

plush tendon
#

and D4

strong forum
#

jakey went back to his more casual guild

plush tendon
#

is slowly killing guilds

jagged pier
#

i actually dont regret it

#

less time raiding

#

more time bedge

waxen frigate
#

RuneScape and D4 have taken over

broken juniper
#

for Earthen Crush = Shield Block, Ignore Pain + one CD like Demo Shout or Shield Wall or Last Stand

for Flaminsh/blazing slash (well the other attack) = Ignore Pain + Spell Reflect, Spell Block + one CD like Demo Shout or Shield Wall or Last Stand (shield block will also probably up)

am i forgetting something?

dusky canopy
#

Pretty sure last I looked at “today in wow” less than 100 guilds have cleared mythic still

#

Good game

red otter
#

This season just isnt as fun as last tbh, kinda burnt out. And been playing more alts then ever.

jagged pier
#

no u can take earthen crush with just SB

dusky canopy

strong forum
#

the only scary part is legit just the flame slash

waxen frigate
broken juniper
#

Rn my stat build is Haste/Vers, with a bit of Crit

jagged pier
#

like flame slash will kill u

#

thats it

broken juniper
jagged pier
#

if only it could be parried

waxen frigate
#

Fix stagger pls

broken juniper
#

Thank you all for the recommandations/tips!

waxen frigate
#

Also what the fuck how did I only take 2

broken juniper
#

Is there anything tricky for Prot Warrior in Mythic Rashok asides from the flame slash?

jagged pier
#

no

red otter
#

Hey btw quick stupid question, started playing prot warrior actively just the other week and Im coming into one issue consistently.

How do I deal with big large incoming hits (Primarly bosses)?

With how cd's are on prot warrior the large defensives are on massive timers.

broken juniper
waxen frigate
#

Don’t get double flame slashed 🙂

dusky canopy
#

So basically you just react quickly if you see flame slash going on you

#

Doesn’t sound to terrible

jagged pier
#

no

#

u just use the same stuff every combo

#

cause its rng if u get flame shlash or not

#

so i d stnace SR TD first

#

SW SR second

#

SR ironbark d stance stoneform 3rd

waxen frigate
#

Yeah you want to have whoever is actively tanking it eat the first whatever it is

broken juniper
waxen frigate
#

Then the rng on the second determines who takes 2

#

You never taunt back mid combo

dusky canopy
#

Yea jakey typical gameplay makes sense

jagged pier
modern brook

@strong forum u dont live a second

Gotcha gotcha

SW is on a min CD when playing correctly

broken juniper
#

i never tried it but, does Stoneform remove the debuff from Rashok's tankbuster?

jagged pier
#

no

#

buts its DR

broken juniper
#

ahh damn, in case I wanted to play the hero

#

yeah still 8% i think DR

Between BFA and this season I've done the first pull in Underrot hundreds of times. I used to pull the ticks but my guild mates requested that I don't pull those. So, this whole season so far I've pulled the worm and Matron up to the group on the center platform. Never had an issue with either type of pull until this week. Suddenly the worm is casting on the group instead of following me to be grouped up with the rest of the pull before it casts. I'm not 100% sure but pretty close to it that they are hitting it before I finish the pull and they're blaming me for it.

jagged pier
#

it casts on a random member of the group

#

and should be stunned anyway

subtle peak
#

What’s the general consensus on drogbar rocks for prot?

jagged pier
#

good

#

depending on what trinkets u have

wheat glacier
#

I was 430 and still using Drogbar Rock and Stone.

Mostly because no other trinket would drop though

jagged pier
#

u shouldnt be using stonre

#

stone*

#

like any trinket from last season is better than that

subtle peak
#

I gots a 437 beacon and a 441 anvil

jagged pier
#

so u dont use rocks

subtle peak
#

Ahhh cool cool

but on your own ye you die

just tried durin a wipe back in prog few weeks ago

well if u have a priest i suppose

#

but fair enough i stand corrected

modern brook
#

now thats a b value lmao

crystal mauve
#

For Rashiok Mythic I've tried to use IO for a few pulls and I've noticed that the avatar CD aligned somewhat well with the tank buster. It was kinda cool to use the SW from Avatar for something useful for one 🙂

uneven mason
shut summit
#

actually GS didnt even proc

#

lookin at log

#

so ya just crit block xd

uneven mason
#

Block 18million

toxic pewter
#

is there an amount of mastery we generally want to get to at least as a bare minimum

jagged pier
#
  • rally and LS

That block though.

crystal mauve
urban portal

youll get some mastery from tier

#

so thats your minimum

toxic pewter

Yah but I heard there is like a breakpoint we may want to hit

no

unless you go the crit mastery unbind shield block build

(let's be clear for anyone listening, this is a meme bluid)

uneven mason
#

Can we get rid of bsv and replace it with neltharions fury

jagged pier
#

it did no damage compared to the other tank artifacts

strong forum
#

replace ravager with nelth fury, buff nelth fury to do fat dam

#

thx

uneven mason
#

Oh I just mean an ability that assures a crit block, not exactly the actual channel

toxic pewter
#

wait is nelth fury the legion ability

uneven mason
#

Yeah crit block channel

toxic pewter
#

that would own

strong forum
#

give it 2 actual choice talents

#

not what abomination ravager has currently

uneven mason
#

I mean it's mostly to log cheese for blocking more HP than the raid has combined

#

Although combined with splock okayge

jagged pier
#

in a world where u drop BV and outburst because the cap stones for the third capstone is actually good

drifting socket
#

Did i read that someone was able to survive 2 rashok crush's?

#

by critically blocking

uneven mason
#

🦄

strong forum
#

i wouldnt mind a world where you drop BV to get a good talent

jagged pier
#

well not just crit blocking

emphasis on good talent

u need LS and rally

shield wall as well?

no

uneven mason

#

does GS have damage reduction in it?

and d stance

#

i want a world where bloodborne is more towards the middle of the tree atttached to a bleed talent in the prot tree and it only costs one

just increased healing iirc

thats what i want

helps to get topped inbetween i suppose

Wait which tanks don't have their artifact in their tree?

#

I looted my chest prior the m+ no affix bug, I quit out and did a key yesterday, I thought the bug fix was also retroactive but was fun to do a non affix key

toxic pewter
#

ngl, I have been doing legion content lately cuz im bored and it makes me sad dragonflight does not come close to order hall and the questlines and things to actually do.. its almost like a lot people today dont know what it was like

#

doing balance of power questline

crude notch
#

I mean that can be said about every old expansion's system

toxic pewter
#

Yeah I cant lie I actually miss a lot of the stuff people apparently dont want

#

I guess I am the odd one out though

sick sentinel
#

so, i just want to hear the strategy for the first boss lair involving the adds

#

cuz theres at least 2 things, but mostly 2 ways i can think of handling adds that fight

cinder storm
#

I miss twilight devastation, the visual was really neat

toxic pewter
subtle peak
#

Yeah i try my best to not aggro the adds and it works out well for the melee

#

Though it’s pretty inconsistent because you can’t guarantee that they won’t be aggroed all the time

sick sentinel
#

unmakyr = prenerf infnite stars, bfg = twilgiht dev

cinder storm
#

I'm actually practicing for my ultra nightmare runs, I have to send my ps5 for repairs

sick sentinel
#

why not on pc

modern brook
#

n the last 8 years discord never updates properly

cinder storm
#

eh, I have it on pc, just wanted to try it on console as well, which is slightly harder = less dps

sick sentinel
#

doom on controller and limited to 60 fps when you can have it m+ KB unlimited FPS

i get it though i cant play GTA style games on KB mouse, my brain is programmed to triangle robs the car

#

Good thing you can get a ps5 type controller for pc

#

I havent been to zaralek cavern much, is there anything to do there?

#

Non mandatory new zone, easy gear upgrade

uneven mason
#

It's certainly catering toward getting the 90% of people who never touch raid or m+ into that content

#

Like I've had a lot of "teaching opportunities" pugging alt keys

sick sentinel
#

i think alot of people do mythic +

#

just not at a +20 lvl

#

tons of keys below 10 listed constantly when i look up groups

cinder storm
#

This next few weeks with catalyst 20+s will open to many people, I personally only have one tier on my pala and 3 on my war

dense verge
#

Forgestorm still good?

cinder storm
#

always been good

sick sentinel
#

yeah but don't bend over backwards and snap your spine trying to get it

uneven mason
#

Lot more people without previous season raiderio

I've not had a weapon drop I've been using a 415 Strike Twice lol

#

Aye only wondered as a mate says for his ppala a 447crafted is better than FS and just got me wondering if it was still good for PWar, I've only 2-3 hours play time a week

sudden sable
#

yes, forgestorm is better on pwar than ppal.

cinder storm
#

If you don't have that much time to play or farm or raid, you can craft a weap, not a bad slot to craft

toxic pewter
#

why is forgestorm better for prot warr than prot pal

sullen gust
#

My money says the stats

#

Think the ol forgestorm is Haste Crit

#

We love Haste and we are fans of extra crit

#

I wanna say pallys like mastery?

mighty valley
#

maybe they just lose more without main stat

torn gulch
#

Strenght is more important on pala than on war

#

It is important on war but not as important as pala

#

Plus forgestorm is statted well for us

#

But you can t do wrong with 447 crafted

modern brook
mighty valley
#

would've thought procs like this were normalized these days

modern brook
#

to my knowledge forgestorm is not rppm

strong forum
#

for mega keys forgestorm is not bis, it only wins until 4 targets

#

and tbh for me aswell its barely a gain

#

it needs to do well over 3% overall to be a dps gain

#

i specifically name the % cuz thats exactly what it needs to beat

river creek
#

Is Forgemaster 437 a better tank wep then 441 Scholar's Thinking Cudgel

toxic pewter
#

tomorrow can craft an item, is 447 weapon the pick?!?!

strong forum
#

also after recent dmg changes, theres a chance that its no longer as good, given that we benefit 8% more off of str now

strong forum
#

for m+, unless youre regularily pulling 100k overalls, also yes

river creek
#

lol not at 100k

strong forum
#

then its good for you

mighty valley
#

it still sims as better damage for me at 7-8 targets but the rest of my gear is kinda lacking

strong forum
#

for me its only until 4

#

and that was pre-buff

#

so it may very well be 3 now for me

loud cave
#

Should I be trying to pull all adds on Rokmora boss?

dusky canopy
#

Glad I took socket over 447 main hand this week

vestal canopy
#

To ask a dumb question, threat on a pull tends to be an issue outside of Charge, Avatar, SB, TC opener, do I just rotate Avatar and Dragon Roar between pulls for initial snap threat? (admittedly I do play with 440 Ret paladins who love to use CDs as I charge, knowing I'm sub 420 ilvl)

plush tendon
#

threat shouldnt be an issue and you shouldn't have to plan a CD for each pull.... thats the rets problem

#

slam everything you got on CD

dusky canopy
#

I typically Titanic throw > Charge/Ravager > thunderclap
If I’m worried about threat

vestal canopy
#

Thanks for the response 👍

dusky canopy
#

Threats not really an issue unless you’re in the situation you described

#

Behind on ilvl significantly

fresh igloo
#

and of course if you haven't actually hit 'em then the dps will instantly pull threat.

dusky canopy
#

Also note too, If a dps blows there load on 3-5 mobs while you’re still gathering the 2nd pack that’s a them problem

#

Weather they want to accept it or not

fresh igloo
#

yeah heh

vestal canopy
#

They're really chill about it knowing I'm just getting back to tanking since Cata, just wanted to make sure it wasn't me being a dumbo

#

To pick up titanic throw btw from the default m+ build in the pins, guessing I just drop Sidearm?

fresh igloo
#

pain and gain or sidearm are two good flex points if you need QoL

toxic pewter
#

just simmed 3 targets and forgestorm is even with 447 weapon

dusky canopy
#

I drop pain and gain

#

It’s very lack luster

#

Most of the time you’re sitting at max hp with a fatty absorb shield

fresh igloo
#

yeah. both of them contribute fairly minimal benefits. I like bounding stride and titanic throw more than the small contributions of healing or minimal extra damage.

vestal canopy
#

Was also considering dropping Rallying Cry for intervene based on what you guys were saying in here the other day 👀

crystal mauve
vestal canopy
#

iirc, that in M+ depending on the dungeon, some found they got more value out of intervene than Rally

crystal mauve
#

Only the focus in brackenhide comes to mind for intervene but even then it should be stopped rather than intervene, people won't notice and they will run away. IF they even notice there is a raging mob on them lol

dusky canopy
#

Maybe it’s just me but intervene has zero interest for me. No super stand out benefit too it in this round of dungeons

#

However

#

Rally

#

Can be used on almost every boss between a healer cd

vestal canopy
#

Glad I asked!

dusky canopy
#

Or even trash packs that do back to back party damage

vestal canopy
#

Well, mentioned it

crystal mauve
#

I use it when things starts to get triky to make sure my group has a little bit of a buffer and not get clapped by a cast or two

#

bosses or trash regardless. If I see some people below 30% and it seems dangerous I just send it

dusky canopy
#

Yeah I practically send really on cd too if it appears like it’ll be useful

sick sentinel
dusky canopy
#

I also save it for some specific overlaps

sick sentinel
#

im not gettin that stupid talsman in a reasonable time i know it

#

i got the shard for now, it could be worse. doesn't do magic i think

dusky canopy
#

Shard is uhhh

The real question is, do you really need the talisman? What key level are you aiming at

sick sentinel

the bubbel it gives is massive.

theres a macro for switch stance with 1 bind in the pins

upset I realized I upgraded my ashkandur to 441 before equipping the heroic version to get the mog.. feelsbadman

lusty grotto
#

you should have gotten it while upgrading

toxic pewter
#

apparently doesnt work that way if the item is still 'tradeable' within that 4 hour limit

#

so like i put it in to upgrade and didnt get heroic appearance

#

and blizzard knows about it theres an article about it and everything

lusty grotto
#

thats certainly odd, because i heard allthethings doing the sound effect when you loot, and then after upgrading it

#

even if its tradeable

#

it does the negative sound effect if you trade it

#

as in, the appearance is gone

plush tendon
#

I submitted a ticket 😦 for mine

#

its stupid

#

please fix Ion

#

or better yet... also add in if you get the full mog of a certain difficulty; you also get everything below that difficulty

#

dont make me steal some kids LFR tier for my TMOG

toxic pewter
#

For an appearance to be permanently added to your transmogrification collection any trade or refund timer must run out, or be removed (by equipping the item for example). Upgrading an item that still has a timer on it to an item level with a different appearance will remove the initial appearance from the wardrobe.

To make sure that this does not happen, remove the timer by equipping the item before upgrading it.

If you accidentally upgrade an non-soulbound item and lose the original transmog you will need to reobtain that item in order to gain the transmog via equipping the item. We cannot provide any replacement items, or wardrobe appearances due to this game function.

#

So be sure to equip stuff before upgrading it

with a big crit buff

What about dragon scale?

urban portal
#

its not that we dont have the ability to proc it

#

its that stat trinkets are a bit worse than damage trinkets for tanks

strong forum
#

dragon scale is worse than nelth call

#

and just because we have buttons in our rotation that are aoe, doesnt mean the trinket procs any more often than it should

procs ~twice per minute

It do be like that

#

You can legit pull up to like 92-94% before treemouth and it be a normal route

#

you need soothe, but it's not only doable but a pretty good route

tired girder
#

To pull that quantity we need a lot of skip correct?

sick sentinel
#

So between zaquil, OCE and dargul what combo would you guys run??

plush tendon
#

Dargul and OCE for M+

#

swap OCE for Zaquil for raid

proper roost

🤨

silk sandal
#

Is using the NL defensive trinket on zskarn a good idea for the brutal magic dot? Having a really hard time staying alive lol (meanwhile our other boss tank who is an unholy main survives going to 20 stacks 🫠)

#

Not quite sure what else to try to beat survive it lol. Also using a 447 vers/crit mh over forgestorm for just that tiny extra bit of stats and vers lol

#

Feels like my 425 ilvl paladin would be able to tank it easier Condemned

#

I was also considering playing around with swapping out annulet with a 441 haste vers ring or potentially defensive annulet (but I’ll be honest and say I haven’t gotten very far on that front and have no idea what the defensive ring gems do so idk if they’ll help at all lol )

sick sentinel
#

ran that again, healer really struggled on basic things

#

i think it was an offspec healer or alt

#

or new, they didn't lust the first time we attempted first boss

fervent bramble
#

forgestorm or crafted wep for m+?

mighty valley
mighty valley
silk sandal
#

The 5-6 is only because of dragging the boss across the room so he isn’t meleeing

mighty valley
#

yeah 9-10 feels untenable to me generally, not sure why movement would mean you can't swap?

silk sandal
#

No, no, during movement (with leap too) the boss stops moving to cast and stuff so I get away from him. Which means he isn’t meleeing me to give me stacks. So the other tank’s dot falls off and he taunts leaving me at 5-6

#

When we are positioning to bait specific traps, there isn’t any movement so the boss is constantly meleeing. So when the other tank’s stacks fall off, I will be around 9-10

uneven mason
#

Feels something isn't lining up

mighty valley
#

oh hm, with normal debuff timings i never feel i get that high

silk sandal
#

Hmm, really? how high does your go?

mighty valley
#

this is from memory but we can usually swap at or before 7

#

have you got logs?

silk sandal
#

I do, but they were pretty messy. We weren't expecting to get rashok down as quickly as we did last raid so like all the pulls are 2.5 mins long lol.

#

Actually, looking at some of the better pulls, looks like we could reliably swap at 8

lusty grotto
#

that sounds about right

#

to me

#

just play double wall imo

so thats 350k every 2s for the entire fight lol

sooo many deaths on a +7 while im trying to farm drake crests

#

and fury gear

lusty grotto
#

yeah LS and unnerving is really good there

#

for IP spam

#

it goes against everything we do but, staying alive and minimizing damage intake is important

silk sandal
#

I discovered that on a bunch of vault fights, i could delay the first demo a tiny bit and then that let me use it defensively and not even lose a cast (or 1 max)

#

yeah i mean, damage is good and all, but id rather kill the boss 😛

mighty valley
#

have you got a curse of weakness effect

lusty grotto
#

yeah so double wall and unnerving and hope for the best

#

if anything call for externals and/or use defensive trinkets

silk sandal
#

alrighty, yeah ill give it a shot

lusty grotto
#

like faceless ire and cragshaper

silk sandal
#

do they still stack?

mighty valley
#

yeah check it's actually being applied, one of the few times when attack speed is a major part of damage

lusty grotto
#

i wouldnt stack them lol

silk sandal
#

I remember on raszageth they all stacked

lusty grotto
#

oh

#

are we talking about curse of weakness ?

silk sandal
#

yeah

lusty grotto
#

oh idk about it

mighty valley
#

they stacked on raszageth?!

silk sandal
#

yeah they did

#

multiplicatively, but still

#

someone noticed and posted an analysis about it a couple weeks before the end of the tier

#

and her melees hurt just a little bit lol so it could have been huge

lusty grotto
#

interesting

silk sandal
#

and curse of weakness is warlock, then theres a poison from rogue, and some dk ability right?

lusty grotto
#

atrophic?

#

idk about the dk one

silk sandal
#

insidious chill is the dk one, we had that one up

lusty grotto
#

ah

#

insidious is slower attack

mighty valley
#

ok, can't really miss casting that

silk sandal
#

yeah, thats what weakness is too

lusty grotto
#

numbing slows attack speed

#

atrophic lowers damage

silk sandal
#

so then its curse of weakness from lock, numbing poison from rogue, and insidious chill from dk

lusty grotto
#

thunderclap used to do that too 😢

sick sentinel
#

do you gotta do 2 rings to 437 for the upgrade without crests to work

#

or whatever your targeted ilvl is

#

both is champion

lusty grotto
#

yes

#

both rings, both trinkets

#

or at least 2 of each

silk sandal
#

Anyways, thanks a lot for the good talk! I appreciate it

#

Gotta be the 31st prot warrior to kill this stupid boss 👀

#

I was actually going to reroll to prot paladin and was going to swap in starting from zskarn but then tears of the kingdom and then diablo so that just didnt happen lol

sick sentinel
#

i need to get the sennath normal cloak for my fire transmog

#

might throw a group together for that 10.2./3

silk sandal
lusty grotto
#

not really iirc

silk sandal
#

Its not like there is downtime to just regen charges on double wall. Impenetrable wall gives shield wall ~1min cd

lusty grotto
#

yeah

silk sandal
#

So it seems like alternating LS and SW might be enough to cover each time

#

I think you're right on unnerving focus for sure though. That should help LS actually be able to keep me up there

lusty grotto
#

right if you can manage swapping and rage consistently and theres little to no "oh shit" scenarios IW is better

mighty valley
#

imp wall isn't at its best if you're occasionally running around for bombs

#

but i'd hazard a guess that it's still more total SWs

silk sandal
#

Im not doing bombs

mighty valley
#

alrighty then

silk sandal
#

Yeah, thats what the 3rd tank and dps immunities are for haha

mighty valley
#

we somehow have no paladins, so

#

and no hunters! incredible

silk sandal
#

but yeah, even on heroic, bombs werent super easy

#

a bunch of stacks + physical dot + no rage generation = bad

mighty valley
#

they giganerfed heroic bombs, kind of a joke now

silk sandal
#

ah

lusty grotto
#

in fact id argue that unnerving can make IW better in that fight

silk sandal
#

the only time i did bombs in heroic was the first week when we were just yoloing it. And i just straight up died on the first set lol

lusty grotto
#

can do IO i guess, just in case

silk sandal
#

Then we threw our army of hunters and paladins at it 😛

lusty grotto
#

idk just spitballing

silk sandal
#

idk abbout that haha

#

what i am wondering about though is fueled by violence vs brutal vitality

mighty valley
#

they nerfed bomb initial + tick damage both by 50%

lusty grotto
#

bv imo

#

fbv wont help much there

silk sandal
#

i usually prefer bv, im just worried about the dot eating IP. So if I don't have IP up, it doesnt do anything

#

each IP gets a tiny bit stronger right when i hit it, but then is completely taken off

lusty grotto
#

VO also gives you an IP

silk sandal
#

sure, but im casting it way more often than vo is giving it

lusty grotto
#

yeah so fbv is kinda eh cause it takes away from leech and other sources of self healing

silk sandal
#

im assuming

#

for sure

mighty valley
#

that node is always gonna be kinda feelycraft

silk sandal
#

If you're at near max hp most of the time, healing is weaker vs ip

lusty grotto
#

well that's what nome said a while ago

mighty valley
#

BruV was nerfed but I'm guessing that's increasingly offset by our rage income getting higher

lusty grotto
#

@strong forum thoughts?

silk sandal
#

for instance, my hp on a random pull

#

its rarely actually capped

#

and you can see how messy the pull was with all the deaths lol

mighty valley
#

imagine this with 1-2 less stacks of the dot though haha

lusty grotto
#

yeah idk i wouldnt touch it tbh

silk sandal
#

Was swap at 8 every time

#

and neither tank got a stack while the other tank didnt have the debuff

strong forum
#

Getting 2k extra hps surely changes anything there clueless

#

And not the potential 7k hps from extra IP

silk sandal
#

Gotcha, so thats the numbers then

#

Does that 7k account for IP being removed immediately?

lusty grotto
#

also arent zskarn's hit parryable?

#

im pretty sure they are

silk sandal
#

or does that assume you have some uptime

strong forum
#

If your IP is being removed instantly

#

Literally with 0 uptime

#

Fbv isn't gonna do shit either

#

Cuz you're removed from the screen 2sec later

silk sandal
#

totally fair

strong forum
#

Anytime you're not full HP, BrV gets the same or more traction than fbv

#

That being said

silk sandal
#

yeah, like i said i didnt know what the numbers were so seeing that data BrV def is the play

strong forum
#

Zskarn is just a bitch

#

Can't get more anti warrior

#

That cunt is 90% unblockable magic dmg dot

mighty valley
#

yeah the real solution to all of this is clean up the pulls so healers can actually look at you occasionally

toxic pewter
#

kinda wish spell block just blocked dots

#

I know sark one is blockable

strong forum
#

It needs to

silk sandal
strong forum
#

On zskarn it really should be blockable

#

Makes no sense that that boss exists in the way it does

silk sandal
#

while we're at it, experiments too please lol

strong forum
#

Experiments you can power through way more easily than zskarn

toxic pewter
#

they should of made spell block work how prot pala magic/dot block works, make it even work on bleeds/ dot effects in general

strong forum
#

But zskarn is just ram ranch through and through

#

No breathing

crystal mauve
#

zskarn is one of the reason why I'm sitting and letting an alt prot pal take care of this boss on mythic lol I was comparing logs and we require on average 30-50k HPS more thank other tanks

craggy pilot
#

what are you supposed to do vs Rescind on the Sarkareth adds in P3? 🤔 (Heroic)

lusty grotto
#

take em to pools

strong forum
#

Yeah like, pwar is absolutely cucked vs zskarn idk why it's being allowed from blizz

mighty valley
#

the insult on zskarn is that the first kills got to do the broken strat lmao

crystal mauve

#

So they have to reprogress

mighty valley
#

oh damn

silk sandal

oh that hurt lol

craggy pilot

is what i mean

silk sandal
mellow bridge
#

that's not true

craggy pilot
#

so you júst have to burn through them or what?

silk sandal
#

Unless there was a previous broken strat

#

The people who cheesed it in the corner 100% did NOT get their lockout reset

mellow bridge
#

yea

strong forum
#

Didn't the bluepost literally state that

lusty grotto
#

yeah you just burn adds in p3

toxic pewter
#

yeah phase 3 just kill them/ cc

silk sandal
#

I have friends that cheesed it and are progging neltharion now. They have just kept extending

strong forum
#

I swear I read somewhere that the IDs wouldn't be extendable

#

Ah well

silk sandal
#

I wish 😛

strong forum
#

Rude awakening should they ever not extend

silk sandal
#

We got punished for taking a tiny bit too long sadge

strong forum
#

That boss is just pure pain

silk sandal
#

I don't think anyone is not extending anyways. Since the gearing system this patch is bonkers. There isn't really a reason to reclear the earlier bosses

crystal mauve
#

Is there a world in which they would patch zskarn and make the dot blockable with Spell block? Does anyone know if Pally can spell block it naturally&

silk sandal
#

More likely they would just nerf the dot itself

toxic pewter
#

blizzard just needs to make spell block work like prot paladins, can block all periodic damage effects too, then we would be feeling good

strong forum
toxic pewter
#

the arbitraryness of how it is now is awful

crystal mauve
#

I understand it's good to have different tank shine on different fights but when you only have two in the raid it feels bad to be stuck on a boss cause your tanks are not the right class

strong forum
#

It's the first time in a while where 1 tank is this much worse than any other in raid for a specific boss

silk sandal
#

Sometimes you're just a paladin and you have sac, and bop, and freedom, and spell warding, and a IMMUNITY THAT JUST WORKS ON RASHOK TANK MECHANIC, and kick+shield of the righteous, and the ability to block periodic damage with 100% block uptime

crystal mauve

hazy bronze

i have a trusted badge for nothing lol

crystal mauve
silk sandal
lusty grotto
silk sandal
#

I was also demo shouting each one. Then on the first combo per phase, I would spell block if I was getting hit by the magic one

#

And if I used spell block, call for sac on the third combo

crystal mauve
silk sandal
#

Well, also keep in mind many proably swapped away from prot warrior this patch

#

So in addition to it being weak here, its also probabbly underrepresented

lusty grotto
#

yeah numbers dont mean much

silk sandal
#

Pages and pages of paladins, but everyone is playing paladin

lusty grotto
#

i mean in terms of how many warriors vs other tanks

#

damage numbers do mean a lot

Really? I thought paladin was still overwhelmingly ahead for m+ too

Kicks are much less important this season sure, but prot warrior struggles in a few spots in m+ too I thought

I am probably wrong haha. I fell behind paying attention anymore once tears of the kingdom and diablo4 came out =X

strong forum
#

like the only tank thats lagging a bit behind rn

#

is actually bdk

mighty valley
#

stay punished for sl s3-4

strong forum
#

besides that, all 5 other tanks are great

#

and even bdk isnt that bad off in m+

hazy bronze
silk sandal
#

only 2 prot warriors in top 100 tanks though =X

strong forum
#

so

silk sandal
#

I guess I would imagine that the top ranks would be dominated by the strongest classes

hazy bronze
#

none of the famous streamers are playing brown class :pepega:

mighty valley
#

sometimes representation doesn't change just due to inertia

toxic pewter
#

For now

silk sandal
#

I guess its relevant to ask, when did they reroll?

#

With this week's buff?

strong forum
#

andy prepped his war to be ready for this week

#

but like

mighty valley
#

if you bought into hype and geared a paladin, and then it turned out you weren't a million years better but still fine, are you gonna reroll? probably not

strong forum
#

just because not alot of people full main pwar

#

doesnt mean pwar isnt strong or competetive

#

there are 4 different tanks on the top 20 alone

#

surely if 1 specific tank would be best by a large margin

#

it would stand out ALOT more

echo egret
#

437 Forgestorm or 441 Proctor's ?

strong forum
#

okay 3 diff tanks

lusty grotto

we've had a lot of seasons where streamers dont play warriors

same as radio music is popular and listened to by millions

#

but whenever i ask somebody, most people still hate radio music

#

just because something isnt popular doesnt mean its not good

toxic pewter
#

Heh sounds about right

#

Do you think if we actually kept skull banner this perception of prot warrior bringing least amount of group utility would be different

strong forum
#

unique group buffs are toxic and should not exist

toxic pewter
#

Does that include raid buffs too or you mean group ones

strong forum
#

all of them

#

theyre all toxic

#

we're still the only tank that brings a real raid wide/group wide defensive CD

#

somehow that isnt utility though

toxic pewter
#

Yah to be honest rally is deeply undervalued by most people

strong forum
#

cuz utility is only an argument made for the current perceived best class

remember when rsham was being called having good utility last season

Damn you’re right. The utility argument is a major fallacy it’s just a way to discredit tanks that aren’t deemed meta

first and foremost, any class that is meta, their MAIN argument is almost exclusively, good numbers

Ok

strong forum
#

their healing isnt any more based on rotation than any other tank

toxic pewter
#

I always feel like bdk is like a fine line or something they’re either weak or meta

strong forum
#

BDK was always just weak cuz they sucked offensively

#

theyve not been good offensively outside of SL s3/s4

#

in 3 full expacs

#

their kit in general isnt made for ultra keys

#

theyre the tank thats the most prone to dying to lack of mitigation in m+

#

besides VDH but thats another issue

#

the design of BDK is take big dmg, heal big dmg

#

which doesnt really align with ultra keys

toxic pewter
#

Yah eventually the hits just so hard they can get 1 shot right

Or close to 1 shot

not anymore, but thats eventually whats gonna happen

if you crafted with aspect crest, you wont have to reuse a crest to recraft

youll die to lack of DPS or lack of group survival first

if you dont kill adds the smash will kill you

one thing that would be nice in dungeron finder is you can see if the group has lust and battle rez or not

craggy pilot
#

this time i even tried to walk the Skitters out from under the boss, whenever he wasnt about to do Frontal

#

so my monk could do some DMG

prisma crane
#

they need to cut the hp and dmg boost from the adds by like 50% if they dont want to have set timers wrt his aoe

craggy pilot
#

yet he was doing less Skitter dmg than me 😦

toxic pewter
#

Did they make the warglaives from illidan actual warglaives or are they 1h sword still

prisma crane
#

i dont see why they cant just give X amount of time per add to kill it before the shatter

#

or at least have a blackout zone where no more adds can spawn within like 8 seconds of shatter or something

#

its just such an annoying fight

#

and it wasnt nearly as bad in legion

#

though would still wipe groups from time to time

#

the only other issue i have in that place is no clear way to know which puddles are old on the worm

#

and on the last boss, imo, its not intuitive at all to always have the add insta spawn on the wall and vice versa if ppl take too long to kill it

#

because now it's a fucking party wide NUKE if you dont do that

#

not that it's hard to do that, but its far from clear in the mechanics of the fight

i did NL 21 20 19

cinder nova
#

Dropped a 22 ULD because the fire mage did less than 200K to the totem because it'd look bad on a meter.

craggy pilot
#

all 3 failed on 1st boss because DPS cant swap to add 🙂

cinder nova
#

im fire bro

#

Like that makes a fuckin' difference.

lusty grotto
#

jesus

cinder nova
#

Not to mention I was top totem damage anyway, at least the other two DPS were like within 30K but holy shit

#

Are you kidding me?

craggy pilot
#

how are "swap to add" bosses to hard for people 😄

lusty grotto
#

just bacon them

warm plinth
#

idk, Rokmora isn't even a swap to adds boss. It's a kill adds and cleave the boss.

lusty grotto
#

😄

cinder nova
#

Because smoothbrain morons give a fuck more about how they look on a meter than getting io

warm plinth

It's like Cragmaw. Damage to the boss doesn't matter; your damage is going to suck. That's okay. Squish the goddamn ticks.

Not wasting another 25 minutes with a gaggle of clowns that can't figure out something as easy as Bromach.

bromach is

rage inducing

People actually just not swapping on totem is baffling to me.

#

It's so low HP.

lusty grotto
#

the amount of people that cannot press a kick on the dumb add so he gets fucked by the totem

cinder nova
#

It evaporates.

craggy pilot
#

like just had a grp with 1 guy doing the same dmg to adds as the 2 other combined 🙂

lusty grotto
#

also irritates me

warm plinth
#

A lot of melee complain about "I can't reach the adds because they're on the tank"

#

Like bro he does the frontal like 4 times a fight

cinder nova
#

I'm just so utterly confused why DPS think it isn't their job to handle a mechanic that will almost certainly kill the group

warm plinth
#

Just fucking come over here and killi t

mighty valley
#

to be fair even if the fire mage hard swapped to the totem it wouldn't even look that different unless they had CDs available

craggy pilot
#

hunter doing same dmg as the tank on adds in 1st boss NL 🙂

mighty valley
#

not a very good spec at hard swapping

cinder nova
#

Better than 200K

#

They can do a lot more than 200K

#

Don't even try to bullshit me.

#

And there were two deaths because we didn't land it before the AOE.

craggy pilot
#

and tthen i go away before frontal

cinder nova
#

This is indefensible.

lusty grotto
#

to be fairrrr
