ret hyperfocused on aoe doesnt really help

#

but yeah tank shouldnt be top

cinder nova
#

Yeah, these slugbrains think totem isn't prio

warm plinth
#

I don't move adds to melee because I'd rather I'm the only one that has to deal with the gas clouds

cinder nova
#

And mage tried to excuse himself because he's fire

#

Literal clownshoes.

warm plinth
#

That way the melee keep their space

craggy pilot
warm plinth
#

Just...move?

#

to the adds

craggy pilot
#

thats what you just said you wouldnt?

#

now im confused xD

warm plinth
#

No, they should move to you

craggy pilot
#

the adds?

cinder nova
#

The DPS

warm plinth
#

The adds should be picked up by you

#

The DPS go to you to kill the adds

craggy pilot
#

ah ye

#

i auto get them often

lusty grotto
#

or or or

craggy pilot
#

because of random SS tier frontal or Revenge

lusty grotto
#

they can just agro the adds since they hit for absolutely nothing

craggy pilot
warm plinth
#

They hit for like 60k

craggy pilot
#

butt then i cant dmg them

cinder nova
#

I've also bricked two 21 BH this week because people are just not swapping totem

warm plinth
#

That's not nothing

cinder nova
#

Like, I was higher than one of the ranged

#

And like 1/3rd of the them were in the cloud

lusty grotto
#

well i guess thats true ghash

mighty valley
#

fun rokmora fact this week - volcanic knocking you up counts as movement

#

fucked either way

warm plinth
lusty grotto
#

lmao

cinder nova
#

I'm hard pressed to imagine DPS aren't entirely lobotomized

warm plinth
#

Well better to take 1 step than have it count as like 4 steps

mighty valley
#

yeah, just even one step feels brutal on a high tyrannical

#

but you're forced to

warm plinth
#

yeah

sick sentinel
#

did any other mythic + oinly have 3 bosses so far

lusty grotto
#

yes

sick sentinel
#

or is VP a first

lusty grotto
#

CoS

#

MoS?

warm plinth
#

Maw, yes

sick sentinel
#

i guess mists

#

VP seems exccedingly easy to me, i guess thats cuz its f rom what, is it now.... 2010?

#

2013?

warm plinth
#

You're doing like +12s. Why aren't all the dungeons easy

sick sentinel
#

most of them seem to be user error if the key fails

warm plinth
#

VP actually has hard bosses when you get up into higher keys

#

And some of the trash packs are silly too

sick sentinel
#

those dudes at the start with the circles are a free charge use

proper roost
#

well yeah i mean when it's a skill based game, everything is pretty much user error

sick sentinel
#

literal just stand in it with DR IP somethin and when it goes off charge/SC

#

maybe not on fort 20

proper roost
#

you mostly don't want to do that because moving them lets your melee dps hit things

#

whereas if you're holding all the mistrals on top of each other in the center then all your melee are getting fucked

warm plinth
#

idc about charge uses. I'd rather have SS uses

#

are you actually pulling all 3 mistrals?

#

at once?

#

I would rage at a tank if they did that

sick sentinel
#

of all the things i have been yelled at for being stupid tank man

#

this is not one

proper roost
#

that's a really common pull 🤷

lusty grotto
#

lol

#

i pull all 3

proper roost
#

esp on fort weeks

#

to blow the lust right away

lusty grotto
#

lust it to get it out of the way

proper roost
#

i don't think it's that good for tyr but it's still 3 lusts as opposed to 2

#

and if you do it that way on fort, the 2nd lust can come up for the bridge pack after the first dragon and then up again for the last pack before stars

#

it's really nice that way

#

but idk maybe just pug things

cinder monolith
#

I’ve been lusting it on tyr

#

So lust is there for dragon boss

lusty grotto
#

yeah it lines up with dragon

hardy snow
#

ive been pullng all 3 mistrals at start, then BL on stairs casters/gusts guys, then drake boss and last boss

lusty grotto
#

id rather lust minstrals, cause they take way too fucking long with their dumb shields

proper roost
#

yeah, that also makes your first lust like 2 or 3 minutes in

#

which is dogshit

cinder monolith
#

Tbh as soon as the other shit dies I press W to the next pack

#

And just have them chase

#

I cba

hardy snow
#

thats the point, due to this shield this pull is shit anyway

lusty grotto
#

thats why you want it dead fast

hardy snow
#

and part of BL is just wasted due to shield there

lusty grotto
#

fuck effective lust usage

#

its not wasted

#

youre shortening time

#

so what if you cant hit one of the 3

#

youre still killing the rest fast enough

hardy snow
#

well, i was doing both with my group (BL on mistrals and after), and we pretty much prefer 2nd option

lusty grotto
#

its just feelgood mentality

proper roost
#

the other thing is if you kinda wacky double pull these 2 packs to lust it, there's a high possibility you just get oneshot on a decent key level

lusty grotto
#

it feels better to lust the next double

proper roost
#

Otherwise you're either lusting 1 pack only (really bad) or you're waiting to lust for the 5 pack at the bottom

#

Which is like first lust 4-5 minutes in

#

Big lmfao

lusty grotto
#

but that just makes the first double eternal

proper roost
#

By that token you don't care about lust efficiency at all

#

because you just wasted 50%+ of your lust

hardy snow
proper roost
#

yeah i mean

warm plinth
#

As a melee it just feels fucking terrible to do 3 mistrals at once

proper roost
#

gl for the time your rdps gets triple charged

warm plinth
#

You basically don't participate in the fight unless you're a ret paladin

proper roost
#

there is literally nothing you can do to stop that oneshot

warm plinth
#

You can stun them

#

and it will stop their charge

craggy pilot
#

my +18 NL was fun

proper roost
#

the cast timer is like 0.5s, i mean

#

i don't doubt that some people do this

lusty grotto
#

ghash, unless youre exceedingly unlucky with syncs, there's always something to hit on that first double

#

and/or just moving around

proper roost
#

but it's more about staggering the charge, double pulling it is still pretty insane imo and you're also having to perfectly kick 3x wind bolts

#

because 1 wind bolt + charge is a oneshot too

craggy pilot
#

we timed a +18 NL with 4 people

#

hunter was afk for entire dungeon

warm plinth
#

Why do you have your meters sorted by damage

cinder monolith
#

Wot

craggy pilot
#

isnt it default in Details like this?

cinder monolith
#

Everyone has it by damage

lusty grotto
#

🤔

warm plinth
#

I'm kidding guys, calm down keks

#

It's just funny to see a higher dps lower on the meter

lusty grotto
#

😤

craggy pilot
warm plinth
#

I know

craggy pilot
#

we complete the entire dung without him

#

he comes back for the last fuckin boss

#

and ofc hes the one getting loot 🙂

warm plinth
#

Did he have a reason?

craggy pilot
#

when he went offline

#

he typed in chat "DC"

#

and then was offline

#

🤣

#

like what the fuck

warm plinth
#

Maybe internet issues?

lusty grotto
#

i was lagging like crazy just now

#

so

#

he probably had the same thing

hardy snow
#

today half of my guildamates had some connection issues at same moment when doing keys

lusty grotto
#

sometimes its not malicious my dude Nielsen

craggy pilot
#

how can you write DC

#

then DC

hardy snow
#

like hour and half ago or something like that

craggy pilot
#

and then take 15 minutes to come back

lusty grotto
#

because you lag

#

and you know youre gonna drop

hardy snow
craggy pilot
#

not "dc"

#

its like you type "dc" and pull the internet plug out of your computer

proper roost
#

powerful

lusty grotto
#

doesnt matter, your arguing semantics

craggy pilot
lusty grotto
#

you can lag and still type in chat

#

you have never had that happen to you?

warm plinth
#

I mean, if he really wanted to leave, why would he come back for the last boss lol

craggy pilot
#

but i dont type "dc" then

#

i type "lag"

#

like what

proper roost
#

i think using more than 1 braincell to try to diagnose pugs

proper roost
#

is a waste of time and your energy

#

tbh

craggy pilot
#

idk what do people who alt f4 keys do?

proper roost
#

sometimes pugs in keys are weird, it's not your job to know or care why

craggy pilot
#

do they wait 30min to log back in? 😄

lusty grotto
#

like why does it matter what he types lmao

craggy pilot
#

i guess i just go 19 uldaman now

#

and wait until people grow brain to retry 20 NL

#

even this one at +18

#

there were times where they couldnt kill adds

warm plinth
#

on Rokmora?

craggy pilot
#

yes

cinder monolith
#

Nelth is chill as tank until big stony lads decide to head butt you and throw shit in your eye

craggy pilot
#

big stone lads do fuck all this week

#

bosses is where its at

cinder monolith
#

Still lay pipe at higher

craggy pilot
cinder monolith
#

You just reflect everything that hurts on bosses besides first

#

All chill

craggy pilot
#

im not saying the bosses are hard for me

#

its the fucking DPS not doing shit

cinder monolith
#

Tbf I never pug

craggy pilot
#

lost 3 grps thx to Rokmora and DPS not killing adds 🙂

#

timed HOI 20 fairly easily, then fucked 21 NL, 20 NL, 19 NL all on the first boss 😄

cinder monolith
#

Pug life sounds rough then

#

I think I’ve wiped once total this season so far to first boss

#

And it was the first time doing it on a 20 on week 1

#

(It wasn’t possible)

#

NL week one was the most cursed shit ever

#

why do ppl want an hpal for uldaman?

sick sentinel

you get ALL of thoe group types and playes i mean

modern gazelle

anyone got link to prot raid spec just got asked to tank instead of dps and i have m+ on

craggy pilot

the fun continues in Uldaman 🙂

#

#

what is the boomie even doing

modern gazelle
#

do i run bolster without tier set?

lusty grotto
#

not without 2p

modern gazelle
#

what do i run instead?

lusty grotto
#

tough as nails

#

and/or any other

#

and heavy repercussions

modern gazelle
#

i need to spend at least one more point to get the rest

lusty grotto
#

why arent you picking punish

sick sentinel
modern gazelle
#

i copied raid build and it put this

sick sentinel

oh you want the ST build

do not run enduring defenses, go massacre

#

no, sorry i have tier build

modern gazelle
lusty grotto
#

swap unnerving with champion's bulwark

modern gazelle
#

where is that

lusty grotto
#

use the search

#

my dude

#

there's a search

#

at the bottom

modern gazelle
#

oh wtf didnt see that lol

#

good on rest?

lusty grotto
#

swap enduring

#

honed reflexes is a nono

modern gazelle
#

enduring to massacre?

lusty grotto
#

yes

modern gazelle
#

honed to?

warm plinth
#

Anything besides Honed probably lol. Literal useless talent.

lusty grotto
#

well i mean its an ST build

#

and nome's does have it

#

i guess its fine

warm plinth
#

It's still useless 🤷

lusty grotto
#

yeah idk

#

can probably pain and gain maybe

warm plinth
#

Or imp rally

lusty grotto
#

true

#

swap Massacre again btw, i dont think youre gonna have a good time managing shield block uptime without ED

#

and also these specs are fight dependant

#

might need to play with talents on rashok to include spell block, and experiments/zskarn

#

to include more defensive IP related options

#

and you obviously will need spell block for sark

warm plinth
#

I need you peepoBlush

lusty grotto
#

@modern gazelle

lusty grotto
#

WHICH OF YOU TOOK MY NL INVITE

#

i know there are dozens of us, so i know its one of you

#

either way im happy it wasnt any other tank at least

summer eagle
lusty grotto
#

because you dont rely on SS cd's for anything

#

its all resets

#

you have to be extremely unlucky to have SS cds refresh

#

and, its only 1 second

modern gazelle
#

would i want shockwave for sark?

lusty grotto
#

i dont run it

#

let dps handle that shit

modern gazelle
#

okay

How do you make a mouseover macro for heroic throw that also works on target if i have a target targeted

warm plinth
twin bramble
#

is there a best place to tank cragmaw in UR?

urban portal
#

near one of the bone cage things

#

and point it towards a wall

warm plinth
#

Or you can point it away from the cage; either way. Easier to avoid indigestion if you're pointed away from the cage

vital arch
#

wait you can dodge it

#

I took every one on a 22 tyr to the face

warm plinth
#

yeah, just wait til timer is at around .25-.5 then strafe directly away from him until the cast is done

#

You will avoid it completely

#

when I say timer I mean the boss timer, not the cast time, to clarify

#

As a warrior you can also heroic leap each one and charge back in after the cast finishes if you want.

#

Makes it a bit more free

craggy pilot
#

and then move along the wall when no more room

#

until you looped around the entire room

sick sentinel
#

second image is the most ideal pathing he can possibly take, but never does

warm plinth
#

Honestly people just overconcern themselves with the puddles on that fight

#

The puddles do next to no damage

#

They don't scale with key level

sick sentinel
#

your job is simply to bring him back to that spot and point him away from the group

#

and then whatever eggs ytou can get away with doing

#

enrage phase is really gross

crude notch
#

They removed count from the summoned lashers in BH heck

warm plinth

Glad they did, but heck

I mean, I guess it's fine. I never counted on those anyway

#

Who knew giving Bear 40% uptime on barkskin again would be strong.

warm plinth
#

Weak af actually

crude notch
#

And then with 10.1.5 Bear effectively becomes SL Bear with UF AND off heals.

modern gazelle
#

forgestorm is bis right?

#

or is mace from almagamation better?

warm plinth
#

Forgestorm is bis, yes

modern gazelle
#

k

warm plinth
#

Can always sim if there's an ilevel difference

twin bramble
#

thanks @warm plinth and @sick sentinel ! appreciate you. had no idea you can outrange indigestion. do you mean .25-.5 left until cast starts, or .25-.5 into it?

warm plinth
#

until cast starts

twin bramble
#

thx!

warm plinth
#

It doesn't really matter if you go early. You just want to already be moving before he roots himself

#

Which is toward the end of the boss timer

#

But like I said if you want to be safe you can just heroic leap and

#

charge back in after it's done

#

should be up for every indigestion

crude notch
#

Might take a time or two to get it down, but what's a couple of nuked DPS between keys really

warm plinth
#

DPS aren't people anyway

sick sentinel
#

I feel like the counter-argument to "Protection warrior is weak to magic dmg" is lol sw, ip, reflect, iv after it happens

and its i tended to belkke that due to armor + block

So with 4th spark coming up I was gonna ask the question.
Rn I got a shield with shadowflame patch, belt with shadowflame patch and boots with the flavor pocket. For my 4th spark I was thinking to get some bracers crafted. Is there any reason why I would opt to get primal molten gauntlets over the engineering bracers with the battle rez socket? (My weapon is a 444 tongue hacker which is getting the job done until I am blessed by RNGesus with a forgestorm)

warm plinth
#

Not really. I wouldn't go for brez over a bigger actual upgrade though so if you have a possible other slot that could use the help more, I'd prio that first

modern gazelle
#

how come more people dont craft the torc of passed time neck?

#

everyone using lariat or ionized choker but feel like the gem slot+crit/haste makes the torc of passed time worth

vale escarp
#

Who cares about gem slots on necks? You get 3 on every neck anyways

proper roost
#

Yeah..... i hope you have been adding sockets to your neck

#

💀

jagged pier
#

I use torc

modern gazelle
#

looking at subcreation its barely used

jagged pier
#

Stop

#

Using

#

Sub

#

Creation

modern gazelle
#

lol alright

#

why is it bad?

jagged pier
#

It only shows u what is popular which doesnt mean it shows anything thats actually useful or helpful

modern gazelle
#

i was mostly using it to check for gear pieces i could get from dungeons to fill in slots

#

since most of our good gear is supposed to be raid stuff but i dont have any raid stuff really

amber siren
#

outside of possibly a weapon/shield, you'll be filling in ilvl upgrades

#

crafting at this point is personal to your character

modern gazelle
#

yeah thats what ive been doing, just looking for if there is any gear that is worth getting, especially shoulders cause my shoulders are 398 all my other gear is over 420...

#

have yet to see a shoudler drop in dozens of M+ 11 or higher

warm plinth
# modern gazelle i was mostly using it to check for gear pieces i could get from dungeons to fill...

So like... the thing is, even high key players have shit luck. Just because a trinket shows up on subcreation doesn't necessarily mean it's our "bis" trinket or even a good trinket necessarily. Also, high key players actually have some super weird opinions sometimes that aren't true at all. An example is at the end of Shadowlands, a lot of top tanks swore by the Codex trinket from Tazavesh and it was actually hot garbage that just showed up on meters.

#

And subcreation is just showing you what is the most common and/or most popular for that spec.

modern gazelle
#

fair enough

#

i mostly just go ilvl +haste/crit/vers stuff

loud cave
#

Does block% matter if you always have shield block active?

amber siren
#

with SB active you'll always have 100%, so no

crude notch
#

which link?

#

this link?

#

Actually no even better

#

start a chain of links linking to the link

#

The question I was wondering tho is if a haste + mastery build would get much value with all the extra crit blocks or not, perhaps at higher key levels.

Paladin and Warrior were always my favourite to heal due to not taking too much damage. Death Knight and demon Hunter are too spooky with the health spikes.

yo, how big is forgestorm? contemplating farming it. Whats its usual overall in a dungeon?

i'm anti-forgestorm gang

this is my boy right now

still have arms stats on all crafted, but will change that soon

which slot is used for offpiece for prot? shoulders maybe?

vale escarp
summer flax
#

yeah

#

baby versa

vale escarp
#

Thats fine for Prot

loud cave
#

My forgestorm usually does 4-8% of my total damage, but I dunno if that's just because I'm bad at DPS and it's making up a higher % because of that.

after our buffs is thunderlord a thing now?

in m+, do we treat last stand as def cd, or send when available as offensive cd?

#

Send it on cd

crude notch
#

with the wording of that question i'm worried how you treat your def cds

Question about Thunderous Roar - does the bleed damage snapshot from damage buffs/debuffs? Should I use it with Avatar and Booming Voice rolling?

crude notch

snapshot is all but dead in wow

It will increase the damage until the stuff drops off

So after avatar and deno DR should be your next cast

Je, and don't forget to use Shield Wall in raids just before you die, so your healers can't say "You diddn't use defensives!!".

#

i dont tank in raids

#

taunt when x fest

#

hope they come up with something fun for tanks in raids soon..

jagged pier
#

I mean theres lots of no taunt at x in this dugeon its more do stuff when it comfortable

ionic fern
#

I do enjoy struggling with damage intake on specific bosses this tier.

#

Looking at you Experiments and Zskarn.

jagged pier
#

Well theres that

#

Well cant use echo anymore cause they nerfed that

#

But u used to have to tank with the debuff

#

Thats more interesting than taunt at x

#

Adding mitigation after the tank buster on sarc isnt seen a lot

ionic fern
#

Know what tilts me?
Playing well, doing good damage and then the healers going "You only care about damage, you should play more defensive, you are taking so much damage".

potent gulch
#

Tank is utility that helps dps do a job

ionic fern
#

Them not understanding how protection warrior works in addition to not looking at comparative logs to actually verify the damage intake has been the bane of my existance this tier.

See have a team that understands how prot warrior works because u played it with them in NH

Hi guys, I have some difficulties with my group to kill third boss of underrot. Do you soak yourself a lot of spores ?

daring marlin
jagged pier
#

U should bring the boss out too outside the ring so u can clear moee mushrooms woth shockwave

ionic fern
#

I only soak the ones that are out of place / left over before the explosion.

jagged pier
#

And ppl meed to make sure to clear patches just mot 1 or 2

ionic fern
#

It heavily depends on how your DPS does the Upheaval.

jagged pier
#

Then u only need to soak like 1- 2 yourself

ionic fern
#

I had a Ret pally in a +20 yesterday who just place his upheaval so it hit like 2 shroom.

Wiped 2 times on that boss because he was monging.

I liked Diurna (being on boss in p1), very good boss from tanking perspective okayge

#

Doesn't matter that maximising rage gain also maximises your DPS and provides more uses of defensives.

#

I don't get tilted that they complain, i get tilted because they complain without having a clue of the class works.

Always the same, people seem to have a hatred for tanks doing damage however they love healers doing damage

# jagged pier Then u only need to soak like 1- 2 yourself

That's what I was doing. Shockwave from outer circle to hit max of shrooms, soak few (isolated ones) but I don't know, there was always 5-6 shrooms still. Looks like ppl can't manage the bumb and can't clear the last shrooms. 🫤

#

I was thinkg that maybe, I didn't do my job but I can't do more. Soak 2 stacks at the same time is already painful

Still can't believe I got literally nothing from 2 runs (LFR and normal) of the raid.

shield block should be one of the FIRST things you dump rage on, before anything else

#

because,, at the very minimum even if you don't block with it, it increses your ss dmg 30%

increasing your aggro, meaning the whatever monster doesn't aggro the (healer) and runs after it and they die to melee

Then more debuffs

or save it for p2 where he hurts

strong forum
#

U use Spellblock for the dots

#

Any of the tank dots he applies

sick sentinel
#

yea i get that, was just wondering if is like an optimal way. P1 seems easy enough to survive but using it early would mean having it up sooner

#

maybe just overthinking it

cinder monolith
#

You don’t use it to survive yourself in p1, you use it to reduce overall tank debuff damage so the explosion at the end is less

#

With the absorb change tho it’s kinda a non factor

Can I spell reflect void claw on Sakrath? If not what’s best here, SR or spell block in p3 to mitigate raid damage
