Oh nice I wasn't aware of his vod channel, that should be perfect. His guides are a nice overview but don't really get into the minutiae of a run which is what I'm craving
Is the very rare back good even for tanks?
thanks bud
Just dropped from vault.
My choices are either this back, 437shield or 447mythic+ ring
I just got 444 forgestorm in vault
It's nice but from what people say here it's very negligible damage
So a kind of use it if you can, but dont if you're struggling or progging
So the back isnt actually "that good"?
This is my first vault. I dont know nothing about nothing.
It's nothing to salivate over but DPS is still DPS
use it if you can, extra damage is always nice. It's just the stam loss can potentially hurt
as far as i know, the back's a bit stronger on dps/healers since it has no stam and the proc's reliant on others taking damage- but if it's a huuuuge ilevel upgrade, yoink it!
it's worth running a wee sim using simulationcraft + top gear on raidbots for each of your vault items if you're not sure what to pick. sims aren't always perfect (esp. with trinkets) and can only measure your dps, but it doesn't hurt to check if you're stuck between two items
a ring's good to grab if you don't have an annulet replacement sorted, but it really depends on what the rest of your gear is! if you've got a bad shield, the shield might be worth picking instead for survivability
It's shit for tanks. Never procs. Like in an entire dungeon it'll proc like twice
what talents do you all change between fortified and tyrannical?
none
How is it possible to have a group with 4 classes capable of dispels, and not dispel a single afflicted?
It was like the bystander effect of pugging
everyone must have thought the other person was gonna do it
The last 2 weeks of pugs have been amazing for me
My neck actually hurts from the whiplash from then to now
because affixes havent done anything for 2 weeks
that's a very fair point

I thought y'all were memeing before
we actually rarely meme in here
this game is not made for pugging
ahahahahah..... 52 runs and hoped for it in vault. NOTHING!
I keep being told "pull every pack in this room" and that kind of things - but from a prot pally playing an alt. I feel my AoE pull and threat capabilites are severly limited, is it me playing wrong or is there something I'm missing ?
I'd like to add everything is an upgrade

i mean.. pick highest ilvl and then convert to tier or pick already a tier set item?
highest ilvl
nice
warrior has very good pull and threat
If you dont have damage cds you should aoe taunt but with cds threat shouldnt be an issue at all
hands or belt if its a hero and has a socket in it
Probably playing wrong. We should have no AoE issues at all.
Whats the opinion on titanic throw? I initially loved it, makes pulling 3+ packs simultaneously a breeze but its starting to feel like a hindrance collecting adds
I almost want to recommend it but I think it's more of a crutch tbh
summons I mean
It's good pull tool
I dont like to spend a point on it
but its ok
Where is it useful? bromach?
usually if you pull you want to charge the pack anyways and spend your global on a better dps option
Yeah thats what I'm starting to understand, double charge plus leap is enough to collect everything without fuss
I use it pretty extensively in Nel to basically long distance group taunt, just because that dungeon is like 3 giant pulls then you're gucci
I actually dont remember using throw anywhere except for rokmora this season
I mean the ability not the talent
not sure about nl in 3 giant pulls, ppl will die to disks
and rock boys hurt
Dang that's crazy, I use the throw constantly in nelth, so many tiny spawns and im worried about repositioning
But also the only other place that talent can go is intervene or bounding stride? It feels like our most easily swappable point
default option is fear
I play with bounding
but im not playing seriously this patch just 20s for vault and fun
but you don't need to drop fear, I drop pain and gain
I already had a 437 version, sorry bro got it first run
Maybe 3 is an exaggeration, but I'll stagger step the first 3 packs then draw in the next two for a big ol' cleave fest once they're half down, double pull the next two and you're at the boss already. Then drag the birds and the miniboss down the stairs aggroing the entire stairwell, second boss. Then you basically pull the entire hallway from the birds to the spiral stairs, double pull the next pack, third boss. Then you're on the final pulls to the last boss
neltharus, not nl sorry
Well then I don’t see how I can established enough ranged threat when pulling 2 or 3 packs
Charge into pack one
Heroic Throw another pack:
Leap / charge into 3rd pack.
if DPS goes ham before they are gathyered, that's on them.
the law of farming
I got a good feeling that the one +18 i did on my warrior will net me my Forgestorm.
pull shit
wait for it to be grouped
do damage
???
profit
it probably wil
i belieb
Yeah it never happens like that.
Packs are often quite spread and require a decent bit of running, always some DPS starting early, the healer not following me and let me die or pull healing aggro.
I have two good offensive trinkets, what we saying for the top 2 defensive ones for us ?
Or are we saying we don’t ever need defensive trinkets.. in raid I’m mainly talking about for mythic
we dont need defesnive trinkets in raid
" /p wait for me to group them."
If they die, that's on them.
Or you go slower.
Pull one pack, TC/Revenge, establish agro, leap/charge to another pack, TC/Revenge, establish agro, leap/charge to 3rd pack, TC/Revenge, establish agro.
Yes that’s what I do atm
where does this happen that grps are not grouping?
like are you pulling 3x caster packs with 0 kicks or something?
So..what's the issue? 👀
The rare times I’m with friends, they complain about losing uptime, AoE shenanigans or whatnot
😂
Not to be rude but that sounds dumb.
Waiting 5s for the mobs the be grouped (especially if you're with friends, presumably on voice) is not going to be a "losing uptime on AoE" over them going ham instantly causing threat issues.
just let them dps
It's the AA tree boss trash topic all over again.
they die
they don't pay their sub to not press buttons
not your problem
Just Pwarr things
Thanks for all the replies
i don't actually remember this topic i don't think
i only remember people going "adds unlimited damage how solve"
Constant questions of
"AA tree boss trash i lose aggro".
And then it turned out that they were still grouping the enemies (tagging with Heroic throw) while DPS already went ham on the first pack.
I mean, it's not specific to only thios scenario.
I've probably mentally blocked it out of pain
It's just a generic question.
That always has the same answer.
Similar to "Hello, when do i use SW??"
Yeah, I recognize the "me no have aggro" sentiment
Ee...,when you're taking damage.
I completely have already forgotten that tree boss had spread out trash
on cd is the answer rn I think
i was even knee jerk thinking it was referring to the adds in the middle of the fight
ppl are still thinking sw is some huge cd thing we should save while it has 1m cd
cragshaper is our best defensive one
based
When ur druid throws all the adds behind u and they hit u from the back 🥰
had this happen with spiteful last season 🤣
perfectly kiting spiteful, and druid just goes "YEET"
Typhoon without vortex results in a cringy dps loss most of the time
Did a 22 key last night, starting to think next to 0 vers is a bad idea, stacking Haste then crit is fun but damn don't do 22 when ur tired and got 8% vers with phial 🤣
Vers. Does. not. Matter. At. Current. levels.
You're welcome.
I think the tired part mattered a lot more
at 22 your stats dont matter
block value is stat that matters 
Sick so I'll just blame being tired then 🤣
My healer was moaning "maybe crit stacking wasn't a good idea"
maybe u should link a log
No, the healer has spoken.
Everyone knows that the healers know the best.
i mean a healer in my guild calles himself gods gift to healing then gets beaten by the other healers
and hes the only 1 with rashoks as well
so imma doubt
Praise be the vault gods, I have been blessed with a forgestorm, she may only be 444, but she's mine and I love her (if anyone knows, will that new mythic track they wanna add be put into gear in retrospect? Totally unrelated)
It's like a rollercoaster with them.
They go "I FEEL SO USELESS, TANKS ARE SO SELF RELIANT, THEY DONT NEED HEALERS".
But when tanks take damage they go "MaYbE bE iN DeFeNSivE StaNce aNd StacK VeRs".
Dumdumbs.
as with anything in this game
people cope too much and blameshift
because aint no way they're the problem
i was told to sit in defensive stance on rashok the entire fight
because "there is so much raid damage and you can spare the healers some trouble"
i know right? the guy said i could spare the healers 10k hps or something by sitting in dstance the entire time
although most of the healing i get on that fight is either getting topped before/between combo or just splash healing
Just smile and stay in b-stance
Wanna know what getting another 8% vers (that's almost 1650 vers BTW) will give you? 4% damage reduction
4%
Instead of 100,000 you'll only be kicked in the balls for 96,000 by investing 4-6 items worth of vers

Now anybody tell me with a straight face that that matters
unfortunaty they still try
what if someone dies to last mob in pack that had 0.1% hp to an 2k overkill? vers would help in this particular scenario 
What if he parried 1 auto
If he hadn't parried a single auto attack out of an entire pack (which is obv not possible because we have baseline parry and we get it from Str too)
He'd have just died earlier instead of being overkilled by a tiny amount
It's the same argument
Opportunitycost, you gain some you lose some. It's not just gaining with focusing on a particular stat heavily
i have also been asked condescendingly why the fuck i was stacking haste as a tank since everyone knows vers is the only defensive stat?
this was a while ago though
and not in my current guild
Verse isn’t even the only defensive stat lmao
Even just talking pure defense and not counting being able to do more actions with haste
Crit gives higher parry chance
the fucking Parry sound going through the roof when tanking melee packs with high Crit ❤️
^parry the platypus, the #1 parry cartoon
One could even argue that mastery gains alot of value this season
one could argue anything
sometimes its even fun to keep arguing even if youre probably wrong 🤣
Lotta people do that to try and weasle their way out instead of taking the L
lmao jakey
for me its not so much about taking the L, its more about keeping the entertainment going 😄
I’m still mad Kanga never replied to me literally healing a 20 BH yesterday to spite him 5 hours after our argument
😠
the main motivator for my keys, is whenever someone passes my M+ score in guild 🤣
Trust me I don’t think there’s a single goddamn thing that would make me heal a 20 other than spite
Especially on afflicted week. That was a fucking mistake
Spite is the whole reason why I became active in here in 8.0
To show dumb mfers how it's done
Based
Yeah current week is uh... Not very friendly
That's a big fucking no bueno
I didn’t even have a weakaura to tell me when they spawned
So I literally just had my friend screaming at me
Magma crush is reflect tho
Spell reflecting molten crash is fun though
NL is good reflect dung ❤️
Oh ya I forgot fuck warriors
Yeah for pwar it's bing chilling outside of the hulks, they remove you from the game
They remove every tank from the game tbf
Cuz a 10 sec unblockable dot that slaps for several hundred thousand every 2 seconds is somehow supposed to be livable for a warrior
Yeah but warrior gets doubled dicked down by it
wdym just stack vers :)
I main brew I know the pain of magic dots too 😦
At least I have diffuse now I guess
youre inthe wrong place brother 💔
No I like arguing for fun
We have our 8sec of SW and then it's paintrain for those
ah ye then its the correct place
just go Festering Splinter xD

damn im starting to love D4 rogue ❤️
damn im starting to love... nothing, i can't love

is that asmon?

Are you guys pulling 100k dps easily in underot (+20)? I can’t seems tu pull much more than 85k without pulling like a maniac and putting my group in danger
should be fairly doable, you got decently large sized and frequent pulls
I am the danger
My biggest worry is the rest of the group tbh, gotta get the right group I guess 🙂
i cant say for certain as ive not done UR a single time as tank this season and have not played the game in 4 weeks at all
asking a buddy
in a 23 he did 102k log dps, but i guess thats not really average
Stronk, gotta get good then
he averages 95-100k he says
Hello.
is there any notable Difference between Fierce and Frosted Armor Kit for Legs? wowhead recommends fierce but the sim says frosted. but i dont know how raidbots would differenciate the two anyway
frost = armor = str
fierce is just stamina
I think warrior is like the only one who wants frost lol
Because of that exact interaction
well yeah cuz we get more dmg
Tbh I forgot about that
armor =/= str though
Need to re enchant my warr when I get home
oh ok i honestly did forget that aswell
Well it’s not 1:1
we get like 43 str from frost enchant iirc
like, i guess you get expected value out of it, but, im not gunna equate one to the other personal
thx for clearing that up i was completely lost on how the sim would decide when only simming dps. but that of course makes sense if you just think for a second
It’s really only notable for this specific instance
and when all-totem was still the play

youd get like 300str from the earth proc as a result
All-totem was a weird trinket
Also just a sidenote. I honestly think this is the best role discord by far. not just in skyhold. i always get immediate responses from ppl and no one ever is shitty if you dont know anything obvous
it was awesome
You just wasted all that time, for what? It’s a warrior fury channel and your sitting on here doing this?
i dont get that joke
Very mid for me as brew but on BDK and pwarr was nice for sure
Literally just some guy who got mad in fury earlier
ic
xD
Agreed
I would personally rank Acherus>Peak>Skyhold=Fel Hammer>Pally one
From the ones I’ve been active in
I think skyhold does have the typical class discord issues though
I barely even remember what trinks I mostly used last tier
which is?
Mix of all totem, boon, whetstone
I just miss my Whetstone
Discord mod egos
Not you specifically
But ironically you would know exactly what I mean
nah i dont have blue
am onli orange and yellow
One of the more chill “veterans” out of the discords I’m in
You don’t bully me like Kate 😦
is ok i bully kate in bt sometimes
BT?
bear troupe
🤫
I remember when I added Kate as a disc friend and she just sent me a knife emoji and told me not to abuse the privilege 
I just harass her about sim questions usually
brew sims are special
you got literal PhDs figuring out the most crazy shit ive seen
Yeah I’ve talked a lot with her about it
Gigachad Emallson
I only found out he had a PhD a few months ago
Makes sense tho with the stats work he does
I remember the r2 niuzao predicament in our early xpac sims
“We don’t know how to unfuck this”
@strong forum do u do the prot APL?
Idk any prot people besides you lmao
ye
Nice nice
also out of spite btw
I tried to learn simc a bit a few weeks ago
It as an experience
Kate yelled at me for using the gui
And I couldn’t figure out how to use the command prompt 😦
That’s what I ended up using
Lmao
And then sent to someone else for code stuff ye
I literally spent like 4 hours
On an APL with someone
Well 4 active hours
Doing the coding and testing
i need to find a guild that isn't 2 people online always
gl with that
I need to find a guild
Finding a guild as a tank sucks tho
i swear i log in, and 90% of time im only one on, or last chat was a week ago
don't even know if its worth me fussing over trying to get a primary stat gem asap
Not really
It’s a gem it’s not gonna make or break things
Just throw up a few public orders imo and hope for an r3
Most guilds I’ve been a hang around in barely type in guild chat it’s always in disc lol
Progging Rashok M. I rarely die from the tank combo but if it happens it’s when I don’t have anything available to use. I’m actually even rolling whispering trink as an extra savior. Is defender aegis not a superior choice talent wise? I feel like this gives you a higher chance to have a cd available for tank combos. What am I missing? Cause I’m not seeing people using that.
A fight with sustained damage I get that’s a worse choice because I believe that other talent that’s typically used there, forgive me I forget the name, you still have more uptime with SW
first gem was only a rank 2 rip lol
We don’t have many actually. 2 resto sham
im gunna try max of 3 times rn
you can use spellblock for first two combos of phase (in case you are about to receive magic hit) and shield wall for third, they are back in next phase for same rotation, of course SB+def stance on every combo
also swapped to Spellblock, made it fairly more chill to have extra button
Which trinkets, is the best for m+? 🙂 Atm im running Beacon and Mark of Dargul, but Beacon seems to be so annoying tbhj
Beacon is life
anvil, talisman, tree-mouth, grapnel, ominous essence, call to nelth
@jagged pier DH. @junior brook oh ya I’m def using SB
i thought i heard treemouth was bad
@jagged pier What’s the con of using Aegis
20% less rage gen on SS, less shieldwalls throughout the fight
with imp + spellblock you can pretty much rotate SW -Spellblock - SW
and if you dont eat the flame slash at all you dont need a CD anyway
less rage less SWs
u can cover 2 tank combos a phase with the other one
u wont have them back by P2 i dont think
i means i just use externals
and we only have 2
🤷
so saying you dont have many ither isnt an excuse u need to use them
@strong forum I’ll have to look at the numbers again. You said don’t need a CD if ur eating just one earthen crush? Didn’t feel too bad to you?
SB is plenty
Word. Thx
is the dungeon slice sim any good? i mostly did patchwerk 4 targets to this point. from an m+ perspective?
like, if youre not <60% HP when the earthen crush comes, youll live
it does ~500k with just SB up and 0 ignore pain
should be fairly accurate
if you want more specific sims you sim patchwerk:
- 1t 2-3min + lust
- 5t 1min no lust
- 10t 40sec + lust
- 5-10t 5-8minutes + lust to get an average aoe dps output
and then draw your conclusion from that
but ill do nothing completely wrong going with the dungeon slice? Thanks for the Clarification and in depth view on it but that feels a bit to much. im not that in depth if the dungeon slice is decent
Dslice is only optimized for rogue
As it was made by rogues
You could use it sure but it might have you equip a downgrade and you wouldn’t know otherwise

what
i have restored order to my necklace
most excellent
Sir those aren't crit gems you need more daaaamage
Just seems like a lot ofb extra sims to me half that just is a dslice sim without travel time / combat drops
Just to find out that hmm yes my beacon does do more damage than sporepod :nodders:
Imma be real
Nomer is probably the best person to listen to when it comes to warrior sims lol
Considering he writes the APL
Cool
i would totally use a 437 treemouth hero/champion if i had one
Dungeon slice is something you should never rely on unless the APL author specifically says so
Since it varies wildly by spec how well it works
Some specs you just straight up can’t use it
i only got a 424 treemouth, so its probably not worth equipping
Can you not upgrade it
i thgought once it was max/max explorer sday, thats it
its totally done forever now
Dslice caps out at 6 targets
And averages like 3-4
90% sure it got bumped to 8, avg 5-6
id have to check tho 😦
oh wild
Like it's fine for your normal W route
Perfectly fine
But like I said, if you want more accurate breakpoints to weigh your options I'd personally sim what I posted
why not just mdt it at that point
Is it worth the 2k dps loss on ST to get 2k dps gain on 5 targets and so on
finally got my dice
fun fact, if you loot two of the same trinket it even unlocks upgrading for any other trinket
Should I already be using last stand as offensive cooldown even with 2 pieces tier set or should I wait for the 4 pieces bonuses?
isnt that agi only
With 2pc, holding ls is wasted cdr, send it
dice doesn't drop for us has to be traded
Should we just sim single target only then?
As tank I prefer to optimize for ST
Let the dps add pad they do it better anyway
Unless I’m specifically trying to get a high overall anyway.. lol
👍 I guess I feel good with 100+ overall but it might not be what help the most in timing the key
St/prio is the most important dps yes
does anyone have slam WW or rend on their bars?
both are on gcd
You can't macro 2 gcds together
ah shit
trying to organize my bars as close to my dps spec as possible while trying prot out and i just dont know where to put everything lol
number pad is useful for shit like turning the UI off and other shit you rarely use
coping
I have a macro mouse and just use my fkeys for it
but this feels like hot garbage mess
Also if you use your computer for literally anything other than gaming, numpad is god tier
this is much better and feels at home with fury as my main spec
👀 + 🧠
Not this again ... 😄
Just to confirm: Demo Shout (with Booming Voice) does affect trinket damange, correct?
had a pwarearlier who unironically said he pulls with whirlwind but doesn't use it when everything is gathered.
False
Sadge ...
"increases damage you deal ..." - guess trinket damage is dealt by trinket or what's the argument here?
the argument is it's not damage you deal
- dont read too much into tool tips
- its a white list for things on the warrior spell book
it's time to bullyfango
never ends
I'm a warrior, I don't use spell boo ... ah never mind 😄

Then another CD related question: are you holding back Avatar to line it up with the Ravager, Demo Shout, Thunderous Roar combo or just send it on CD?
send it
more avatar casts = more rage = more rage spent = more cdr from am = more avatar casts
holding it guts the feedback loop
Game is just coded that way ever since legion that they progressively remove it that classes can increase the dmg output of items with class related buffs
Just recently they removed that ability after 3+ years from monks and bear druids
There is only like 1 or 2 specs left that can do that
slowly gutting those too
sub was the most egregious of it
Lost like ~20% damage amp from talents to equipment procs/on-uses going into s2
@jagged pier are you using up some rage hitting some good IP before each tank buster? On M rashok?
Thank you for the background info. Makes a bit more sense now.
not somthing i pay attention too
tbh
Regarding the AA slows (Experiments, Zskarn): Curse of Weakness doesn't stack with Numbing Poison or Insidious Chill, right?
does stack
devo aura also stacks with atrophic
i think its only 2, not all 3
vault always the same, kinda excited and when its open its hard to choose
any idea ?

https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveWoW/comments/12q8rzn/psa_attack_speed_debuffs_stack/
You might be right - if it has not been changed since 10.0.7
150 votes and 28 comments so far on Reddit
So given full application of all 3, that would come down to 0.8x0.85x0.8 = 0.544 AA speed?
should be the case
I can also use the catalyst for tier set no ?
I read an earlier discussion about frost vs fierce armor kit.
You people seem to say frost, but both wowhead and ivy veins recommend the fierce.
If i understood correctly the writer of the icy veins guide is around there, would that be worth it to ask that person to update this?
i mean @ionic fern is in here so it llarold so u can ask them
but frosted is a very very marginal increase
Thought it might cost less, can't check now
Btw, the kazara rare trinker is pretty meh for us, right?
it bad
Thanks just checking
The difference is pretty much non existant between the two. Use which ever one is cheaper.
That's why i was wondering whether that'd be worth to update the guide to reflect that
Good point,can do.
Thanks a lot :)
is there any rhyme or reason to the most upvoted WA suite for fury to have shield slam and shield block as the biggest buttons?
2/6 of the biggest buttons*
i guess they're trying to tell you that you should be tanking
dual wielded tower shields should be a new spec
one for blocking one for bonking\
"this is my slammin' shield and this is my nopin' shield"
pog
I really wish it was easier to get a WA suite that only had the essentials so i didnt have to comb through everything and delete nonsense like shield shit and rampage being available(when the rage bar changes color already to show you can ramp)
maybe thats just my preferences, i know its made to be more general purpose
i usually start with luxthos until I decide on what I want to build on my own
I should really just do that at this point
does a recraft count as an order
I also just realized im talking about fury spec in prot channel
i could just take some bracers i had made and recraft them over and over for weekly points maybe
Just build your own. I look up individual WA's and add as I go along.
the packs are too much weeding for me to care dog
save a bunch of ore
for the quest? I just send 3 shovel orders from an alt.
oh you mean engineering, thought it sounded like smithing
Quick quesiton: Does anyone use a WA to track the Tier buff gained from Last stand?
ok i'm at a blacksmith cross point I have the Obsidan Seared Slicer crafted But everything i read tells me i should have the Primal Molten Longsword. I don't see a difference. can anyone help
ones an axe
you could but the buff isnt changing how you play. you're trying to smash sslam as much as possible even if it wasnt doing the shockwave - and LS is used on CD due to the cdr anyways
the only different i see is the dps sperad is pretty high on the axe
weapon damage is normalized in spell/ability calculations
the literal only difference between slicer + longsword is that one is marked as an axe
and the other is a sword
kool thanks
If i could dual weld two shield and beat people with them I think i would
but making slicer instead will have 0 measurable impact compared to the longsword
Yes I do, I make sure to position myself correctly when the buff is up.
shit load conditions
is the /reload after import thing still needed in a post dynamic groups world?
no
What WA is it?
i dmed you one for it
Is there a specific 4 pieces of the 5 set we want to use if we have all 5?
Avoid chest due to the mastery/crit? Shoulders have mastery and the other three don’t, but at least it’s mastery/haste?
I think I may have answered my own question… 😂
I have giga haste pants offset, so thats my piece
UR has some crit/haste pants as well
chest has vers/haste iirc
wow you never dm me weeshy
wtf
don't dm me this isn't an invite, only guilford, nome, and ghash are allowed to dm me
too late
We got any testin for the new trinkets comin?
they're not on any vendors so that'd be kinda hard
double reknown boxes
Made it myself but it's just a simple Icon with the buff and timer. I can send it to you later if you want, feel free to DM
You’re right I was looking at wrong piece. So my question is, is it better to take a piece with haste/mastery since we prioritize haste, or crit/vers since we don’t like mastery? Haha
Execute twice then mortal strike
Assuming ep
Probably need to weave an op in there too
bring back condemn and there will be an end to the complaining
move something else to where beseker shout beserker rage is
have the "legendary" effect below condemn
All of our stats are fine. Idr the stats off the top of my head but if one was like high mastery I would probably avoid that one but frankly I never really give much attention to what tier slot is the "worst"
Legs are no haste so it's legs but yeah that's basically correct
You'd rather have teir with legs than not
i'm not crazy!! arms is undersimming!! ahh!!!
Do you need to change talents in prot when you hit 4p?
HOL UP
The pins have you covered on this.
Thank you much!
ok i'm holding
you can still be crazy AND arms be undersimming
you have any proof for that statement?
i need to get this mou nt

Zinc is the worst supplement
I put lead in my water
vitamin D||made u look|| is the best.
it just didn't make sense to me that arms performance in raid
is like 10k higher than the sim
while fury's caps at like 90-95%
the thing is fury is even simpler than arms, so the margin for error should be larger for arms than fury
yeh idk maybe people pressing wrong gcd during ravager as fury makes a bigger difference, but the disparity is massive
and it's not just top end
like ALL median arms parses ingame are much closer or higher than sim vs fury
Thanks!
where fury parses are like, universally much lower
why are you so shocked?
it took half of bfa for pwar to get an apl
how about u bofa dn

apls aren't fully supported all the time, most don't get paid for it.
just random patreon donations and shit sometimes
barely
i think acherus used to have a donation page that actually got a decent amount back in the day but "decent amount" = like $50
catchphrase!
Arms is gonna turbofuck Fury next tier when it has a tier bonus that ain't garbanzo

😍 my statue is unveiled
bad designed spec

You mean delete fury
I like buffing for some juicy MS, what do you not like about it?

i meant variance in how much each writer is going to put into it
well variance is just how much procs a spec needs
variance changes between builds and such
THAT"S NOT THE VARIANCE I WAS REFERRING TO
I agree that IP feels weird. I checked a lot of sims and in all cases it’s about 1% dps (lower) if you can live with that you might be able to not ply with it at all
thats a lot
it's complicated, I don't think I can say like any one thing for why arms feels bad to play
i can say at least i think pressing aoe buttons in pure ST just to dump rage is lame, even if storm of swords whirlwind does pretty good dps as arms
(for tank it's a bit different because everything is a generator, idk)
Arms feels better to play for me
arms>>>>>>>fury imo
i mean a slower playstyle dps spec compared to fury, existing is good
it just has so many issues to play in raid
Lol
rly clunky in so many ways
I will not be spoken down to like that by anyone
for the record this is not a hot take, at all
especially some furylord
are u gonna pull over the m+ key for this
I will do what must be done
Please this is my last vault slot i just want to complete the key
your route is ok let's just move on!!
Nothing worse than some furylord that thinks he knows what is best for all other warriors
talks down to arms players like he knows what is best for them
ugh
I know what is best for me
i played prot in s1 because it was (reasonably) meta and the best warrior spec that existed
fury is like pretty consistently good for most raid bosses and even ppl who play fury go arms for experiments and nelth
hanging onto singular spec identity is weirdge
So play it. Nothing in this conversation is worth getting annoyed or upset about.
I do not respect any fotm players
apb is turning this bus AROUND
Nah, just have had years and years of furylords talking down on arms players
its just awful and off-putting
you have a weird chip on your shoulder my man
Who was talking down on anything?
I have witnessed it
Okay but you made the comment in here
here is an example from the other day #general message
because he is telling returning players false information
just like earlier you said arms is clunky
arms is a good, solid spec
I'm an important man, you know. I'm on a statue!
hello !
hi
Sup
based
Fury sucks because the sound effects sucks
There’s 0 chance subcreation has bdk at a tier and warrior at c tier. How do their rankings work?
basically just popularity contest
Popularity + Max keylevel done
It's not done by human hand
Just an automatic scraping website
And the week just started
Interesting. I figured pwar was pretty damn good
Nobody "pushed" on pwar yet
They e had them at c tier for like the entirety of s2
You can safely ignore those Websites
V cringe
If Andy or naowh played pwar in their 26s for a single day
Pwar would suddenly show up as s or a tier
you missed the like
first few weeks
where warrior was F tier
it was pretty funny
I don’t even know why. Even dorki said that he doesn’t see any pwar but doesn’t know why because they’re pretty damn good
I feel like pwar is actually the least popular tanks outside of S1
Not sure why so fun to play
we suck plz buff blizz
Pwar is historically the least popular tank when it's not considered overpowered
I’d actually argue it’s more difficult to play at a higher level than other tanks
It's competing with bear aswell for least popular I guess
Oh true
And extremely simple
It can deal with the new affixes better, it's simple, provides op group healing
Everyone talking about PPal doing 140k HPS on Khajin meanwhile Bear already does it and will be doing more July 11th
also arms best spec cause stats are same as prot so i can be lazy and not regear
ayyy
Bear healing will be nutty next patch apparently
U can’t say that anymore you’re gonna start another “this stat is bis” war
AtW AND fat regrowths
I have my bear at 70 but I’m not farming annulet again I refuse
You don't need to
And all tanks need it
Annulet will be nerfed by 40%
I’m a min maxer
Next patch
Why wait
It’s my toxic trait
You can just gear it rn
My Bear already doesn't want it after X targets I can't remember
Also I don’t have mage tower bear
For warri it's 5 currently iirc
And I can’t play that class without it. That’s the main reason
Then go get it
2 whole times
why cant you play without it lol wat
No 2 ways about it I’m just not feelin the effort
That's truly lazy
Damn straight
hey 🙂 quick question, great vault rewards expire? if i go on vacation when i come back i can still loot it?
mage tower easier now than ever
My time is valuable
Great vault does not expire
Clearly
But I’m more brain dead than ever
You could wait until next season with opening vault if you wanted
And you can stack multiple vaults too
It's impossible to miss out on a vault, blizz made sure of that
Bear tower is easier than any tanks too.
Amazing! thank you
It should be very easy currently yeah
But I think pwar and vdh are by far the easiest
Like literal smooth brain gaming on vdh
Nothing new
Bear is the only special thing
Everyone else just gets 1 armor set per class
And to answer someone’s previous question, playing bear as an actual bear feels lame af to me
Can’t get into the class fantasy
i see
I’ve seen too many rag bears that have bricked keys to use normal form
I’m traumatized
i think I am using that purple bear rn on mine
One might say, emotionally damaged
I was going to ask if you are ok
That’s a loaded question
what's the relevance of rag?
My whole life is a lie
I am noob
But still nonetheless
I stand by my original point
here we go
😂
Yeah casual racism is super funny
How was that racist in any way?
i have done it 🙂
Congrats yogi
grats yogi
pog yogi
no more repair bill till whatevers after DF
that is a neat perk
wtf he deleted it
i fixed it, gloves is indestructible
i'm so confused lmao
Confused about what
Probably had wrong tooltip showing? idk
Don't question the master.
Yogi does things beyond our comprehension or understanding, just know he is the only being keeping our reality from plunging into darkness 
i had to edit in the gloves
it was meant to be there in the first plcae
so, now, the only thing for keys gotta pay for is phials and health potions other consumables, don't blast 500gold ontop of that
Do you have to manually repair every item? Or does clicking on the hammer repair everything? 🤔🤔
You have separate hammers I thought
you have to manual it to each slot each time, but its like a 2 second cast at most, and the item has infinity uses
One per piece
terrible
i do not think this is a cool perk anymore lul
i simply don't die
It is a bit tedious, but it does save a fuckton of gold
nope, same master hammer, you are thinking of
thats the green version and dies on use
it says it requires blacksmithing on the tooltip
aha, i can sell it to paladins
🧐
BS1 tho; no actual skiill required
I just buy auto-hammers like normal people
cuz paladin hits bubble, freedom, still dies
lots of people have 1 rank of skill in a tradeskill to access certain benefits, if they have no interest in actually levelling the tradeskills
sound an awful lot like someone who doesnt have 90 min flask duration to me
i have a jeeves or yak depending if we are technically outside or inside
You don't get the increased flask duration without putting in work in the profession anyway
You have to know the recipe of the flask you want to extend in order to get the longer duration.
u cant mount inside, so u cant mount repair in all sections of a mythic + run
phials is super simple the way i handle it, if the dungeon is under 35 minutes i 1 tap phial, if its over 35 minutes i might 2 tap, depending,
oh no, im not gunna have phail for final 3 minutes of timer when we complete it by 28 or 24 minutes anyway in reality, so the 30 minute phail perfectly covered the dungeon, did the job exactly i needed it to
idk, phials should've stayed 1 hour duration if you're gonna have most of the dungeons be longer than 30 minutes
there is a trinket that extends them, by how much on average in a key, i have no idea
with 90 minutes, you could have forever phials
where can i find thje bolster talents? if theres such thiung
Yeah but i'm not giving up a trinket slot for longer hpials
it's very good
you can search for ability names etc
and find anything that interacts with it
Yeah love that shit
alchemy phial duration thing feels p much mandatory on all the characters i intend to play at max tbh
30 min base duration is dumb
I just double tap phial in every dungeon automatically at this point on the toons I don't have the extended duration on
phials have gotten pretty cheap
so it's more a weird inconvenience than anything that they cut the duration
ya its not about a price thing
it's just deeply inconvenient to have to reflask mid key
or whatever
it's nice to have one last for 2 or sometimes 3 in a row too
i just slap three
i'd imagine for classes that like corrupting rage, i would get alch up no questions
it doesn't even take investment really to get the points for 90min flask
i have done like 2 weeklies on my alt and it has both perks for the pots and both phial perks idk
toxicology perk would take a while but eh
Especially since you can't use phials in combat
big dumb
i hear in the upcoming patch that we get transmog tracking
phial dn
(i've never had to try phialing midcombat because all of my characters have alch ez)
so if you have to go run, say, molten core, to get the drop it puts a map thing on your map where you have to go to enter the dungeon
nah, you just need one of dk/rogue/lock
DK's overpowered just by existing once again
fdk slaps
yes, it does. https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveWoW/comments/12q8rzn/psa_attack_speed_debuffs_stack/

lov u
so defensive trinkets are just ass this season?
Defensive trinkets are good this season, but as usual unnecessary
*Some defensive trinkets
Have you tried not getting eaten?
i did the mechanic, but i didnt do it perfect, so i got eated
i did indeed try that
You should not leap out for the initial cast
Just run out
And save leap in case the puddle disappears
oh puddle despawned
yeah
i didnt notice it behind the thicc ass tauren
i think generally speaking my plan for that is run all the way behind a circle and hold W away from the boss, so that she drags me into the circle and i get slowed and i choose one thats close to another green slow circle just in case
You could've saved that but you should strafe into the other puddle, not try to run forward into it
2 circles seems to be enough if the first one some how fails
first time i did that boss i didnt even know puddles slowed you
you can avoid getting eaten by running leaping only
although i might have used highmountain bullcharge so maybe i cheated a bit
just make sure you run as far as you can dont rely on puddle too much i guess
it was possibly whaever part of ff16 esfand was doing
was like a fraction watching that too
When "Enduring Dreadplate" trinket goes up to 447 will it be good ?
OR will Treemouth brackenhollow trinket + Neltharion lair talisman trinket both still be better ??
the 1st boss of mythic tank tirnket. will it be good on 447 ?
@strong forum sry to ping you. one dropped for me in mythic and im getting asked to pass it if i wont use it.
and i super value ur opinion
do you have better already? beacon, anvil
ive got 441 anvil & no beacon.
but really more interested in how it comapres to other tank tirnkets, not dps ones
How would a 447 Dreadplate compare to 441 Talisman / Treemouth
why to consider a prot warrior for nelth lair
2nd bosses sunder tho idk how to deal with that
it's a big chunk
Everything else goes to 447 too so it's not going to be any better than now
It's a mid tier trinket. And you don't need defensives anyway.
You use dreadplates on CD for the damage
i thought after a gear hits explorer 8/8 its done forever
so how does it compare now then. all 3 trinkets @ 441 / 447 either way.
is there ever a time to use Dreadplate or is talisman just better
you can't upgrade to, whats after explorer, adventurer mayabe
I wouldn't use either of them. Talisman is better as a defensive trinket though.
It's not even close.
kk. Why not use them ? ithought in m+ talisman / treemouth were strong
Because you don't need defensive trinkets
You can survive just fine without them
Both trinkets are strong, but they aren't necessary
only 2 downsides with talisman, relatively small bubble compared to other trinkets, and short duration on it, 15 sconds but high uptime
still, its the best like he said by a mile, you don't slow your self, you don't take extra dmg to get the bubble
hey yall i was wondering, i did several trading post quest but it didnt give me any tokens. Any reason why?
kk ty friends
press Shift-J and you can see how close you are to the next tokens
You get 500 from the normal visit the trading post quest, and then up to 500 more for filling that bar
earlier when i boasted about my 93k dargrul dam i was also asking about sundering on boss 2 anyone know how to mitigate that?
i tried reflect, didnt seem to work, whatever i did it seemed to chunk more than 50% health
it was a 20 and i worry at a 22 or so it might 1 shot
you can reflect it
Reflect dam
no way
