I am actually impressed

daring marlin

Reholy uses it in FH.

south zealot
#

who

daring marlin
#

yes

strong forum
#

We recommended him to try it out

#

After we explained how it worked

#

It's basically a big defensive until a certain keylevel and after that keylevel it turns into a dps trinket with uncapped aoe

hardy snow
#

if you want to do lots of dmg on boss, just crit all hits with beacon, free dps okayge

strong forum
#

All 1 casts of it!

#

the speed actually counters the slowdown effect... ultimate trinket perhaps?!?!

south zealot
#

how does it work

#

i dont see how it would be a big defensive

strong forum
#

to summarize and paraphrase how dreadplates works btw:

  • it mitigates dmg after absorbs not before
  • a plate only breaks by actual dmg received after the dreadplates and absorbs
  • if you 100% absorb dmg, none of the dmg will count towards the dmg needed to break a plate which is why BDK can barely break any of the plates
  • its mitigation/ "healing" does not show up anywhere, you need to reverse engineer logs to figure out its value
  • each individual plate stacks in how much dmg it absorbs, so with 5 plates you absorb 150k dmg per damage instance (pseudo aegis) (capped at 50% of the hit, its not a full immunity)
  • the trinket scans for a dmg even every 2 seconds to see if a plate would break, if that SPECIFIC hit is parried/dodged, absorbed or simply not large enough a plate will not break

it can be a ridiculous defensive trinket when you dont take enough dmg to break plates, and it also does huge amount of dmg.

And bring out actual content

Was hoping for s1 to be "meaty" like they promised

daring marlin
#

yeah it seems kinda not good

#

Hence me not having started the season yet

#

LEAST YA GOT BG3!

south zealot
#

would you use dreadplate over anvil

strong forum
#

But adding 3 sockets and a low level boss that dies in 3 seconds without offering unique rewards is nto content

#

No, anvil is up to 7k dps consistently, dreadplates is only an aoe trinket

strong forum
#

If not more

#

Currently 37hrs in and barely started act 2

#

For comparison, act1 of dos2 took us "only" 16 hrs

cool to see it can actually have a use

we just gave them out on prog to ppl who could get free upgrades with it

#

its probably still very fun alone

#

but me being able to bully friends

makes it way more fun

#

if you like exploring, like to use your brain a bit during combat for combos and strategy + a fully voice acted game with 17000 different endings

#

then its pretty good

urban portal
#

and you just afk

#

that sounds insane

#

sometimes

strong forum
#

yea

urban portal
#

aegis at home

but still good

#

too bad the tier is almost over

strong forum
#

theres still like 2 months left

toxic pewter
#

dont talk down on my main new trinket

strong forum
urban portal
#

so if you take less than 59K damage per hit

#

it just never gets popped?

#

thats actually quite reasonable

south zealot
toxic pewter
#

i am a dreadplater, through and through

#

highly underrated

urban portal
#

nvm kazarra is hitting for 118k per

sullen valve
urban portal
#

cant abuse dreadplates on it

toxic pewter
#

the main issue is the plates only last 15 sec tho

urban portal
#

click off shield bglock for last 3 seconds

#

you can pop the plates in no time

toxic pewter
#

lol

toxic pewter
#

not bad idea

#

will do that on next pull

ionic fern
strong forum
#

theres 2 sec ICD on the plates breaking iirc

urban portal
#

man is taking 110k per hit through block

#

its actually pretty hard hitting

strong forum
#

you have like 850k hp

#

boss melees rarely

urban portal
#

ye but im saying that this trinket isnt great in raid

#

good in m+ though

strong forum
#

ye in raid it doesnt do a whole lot

#

its decent dmg in FH

urban portal
#

3.5% not bad

toxic pewter
#

is it better or worse if a prot warr wears it

urban portal
#

considering beacon is 5%

strong forum
#

and plates has str on it

#

so it did more dmg than bacon

strong forum
toxic pewter
#

you guys over beacon these days ya think?

#

i get its single target dam owns

#

but its also kinda annoying to use

strong forum
#

the MANY dungeons ive done

#

i didnt use it in UR or FH

#

no good opportunity outside of bosses

toxic pewter
#

yeah I think i am gonna drop it for abit

#

gonna anvil and use my new plates

#

just for fun

strong forum
#

on low key levels plates wont break

toxic pewter
#

that is bad right

#

we want them to break

#

correct

strong forum
#

if you want to use it for dmg

#

you want plates to break

toxic pewter
#

yeah

strong forum
#

which means higher key level

#

on lower keys they dont break as often

#

means more absorb, less dmg

toxic pewter
#

yeah i am trying to go higher

strong forum
#

but apparently its wonky for war

toxic pewter
#

so logs dont show its defensive values at all?

strong forum
#

where it takes the dmg after armor but before block

urban portal
#

yeah logs dont work with it

toxic pewter
#

interesting

strong forum
#

no logs dont show it at all

toxic pewter
#

so like

#

hmm

strong forum
#

need to reverse engineer the absorb it did

#

by mathing alot

toxic pewter
#

dont even know how to go about that

#

has anyone done that and come up with any sort of uhh.. hps

strong forum
#

you take the dmg you took, and calculate all the DRs you have on you

#

that means vers, absorbs, CDs, armor, block etc etc

toxic pewter
#

hmm

#

if beacon currently giving me mastery so that I am in the 1k-1.5k range is it bad idea to drop it

strong forum
#

in the what range

urban portal
#

why does that matter

strong forum
#

ah 1-1.5k mastery range

toxic pewter
#

dont they say good to have mastery like 1000-1500 or so

urban portal
#

no

strong forum
#

its good to have yes

toxic pewter
#

I mean I like a bit of mastery

strong forum
#

cuz its efficient

toxic pewter
#

so if i lose beacon im at like 700

#

seems too low for me

strong forum
#

its not a requirement

toxic pewter
#

Ok

strong forum
#

its just, more optimal

#

the effective dps and defensive gain at those very low mastery levels, to getting a tad bit more is just larger than other secondary stats

#

thats the whole reasoning

#

"the less you have of stat X, the better is getting a bit of it"

#

cuz math

toxic pewter
#

makes sense

sullen valve

Bro wtf has blizzard done

#

just 6 years ago we were doing nearly 2m dps ST

do we do the double pull pull 1 VP? like on fort weeks? just iwthout lust? im talking about tyranical weeks

this pull

im not sure if they like become too hard for group on tyr without lust :S

daring marlin

Why not just lust it on tyrannical week anyway?

hushed harbor

It’s pretty inefficient to pull them separate. You still need to do the in/out dance

daring marlin
#

Better lust timing and first boss does fuck all

sick sentinel
#

my thoughts is lust first pull on fort lust first boss on tyr

#

for all dungeons prartically 95%

#

ok going in key

daring marlin
#

you'd basically have one less lust in the dungeon if you hold it for first boss in vp

#

not worth imo

daring marlin

I'd prolly have more fun in M+ if it were all DF dungeons.

shockwave will 100% get auto added

which talent

yes

toxic pewter

does wasted rage mean you were rage capped and then used the ability i guess

sullen valve
#

yes

toxic pewter
#

this pretty badass

#

nice

sullen valve
#

But in all reality
A lot of what I did was breaking things down
IE ->
Shield Slam Rage = (Shield slam + Heavy Repercussions + Impenetrable Wall) * (1 + Unnerving Focus)
But I broke it into its own components

#

which... does mean that I had to pick which addition mattered first

toxic pewter
#

interesting

#

HR will get waste before IW will

IE
Shield slam wastes 3 rage generates 17

IW wastes 1 rage generates 2
Shield slam waste 0 rage generates 15

Ahahah true

BG3?

playing league instead

toxic pewter
#

Dragonflight is the most fun expansion blizzard has released yet. It is so fun, in fact, you do not even have to play it!

#

I should try to get into league but I’m soooo behind on game knowledge

#

Hey

#

Which Icon do you guys like more

toxic pewter
#

For me the top one

sick sentinel
#

im not entirely sure why

#

but on second boss, people fell over including healer

#

and so we depleted by 30 seconds

#

i like neither personally but top icon of stop watch is more ubiquitous of timing things

#

other one looks like a pressure gauge

#

why not just standard clock imho, circle and dots and line

sullen valve
#

Before

#

I feel like it looks a lot better now

SHIT

#

I didn't realize that

#

I'll fix that right after my last mergegoes through

cinder nova
#

what is this

lusty grotto
#

pull request declined

#

wow analyzer

#

hes updating it for prot

cinder nova
#

What is that, exactly?

lusty grotto
#

did you start playing this expansion or something?

sullen valve
#

Tells you what you did wrong
Tells you fun stats you can't easily get from logs

toxic pewter
#

I been playing longer than most people been alive

cinder nova
lusty grotto
#

youre dead wrong

#

its not been comically bad

toxic pewter
#

Gives useful information unless you are too weak to take it

sullen valve
#

IDK about other tanks (I think brew and prot paladin are good...)
But for prot warrior I've worked with Mwahi (and others in here) to get it stitched up

Its hard to determine when you should press your defensive from a wowA PoV
So we focus on rotation, when you pressed defensives (major and minor) POORLY
And in depth stats

#

One good stat it generates, which I imagine a lot of prot warriors ignore, is just using spell reflect for magic damage

#

There is a check to make sure you're reducing X% of magic damage a fight with it

#

Not that you're reflecting any spells... just that you're using the DR portion of it

#

Another great one is being able to track CD of an ability even with active CDR abilities

lusty grotto
#

we used to send people their way on BFA

sullen valve
#

I'm not bias btw

cinder nova
#

I dunno, once I realized it's trying to tell me ABC basics during fight downtime I dropped it like a hot rock.

lusty grotto
#

...

cinder nova
#

I'm glad to see it's getting more attention, but prior to that I hadn't seen a lot of merit in it over just combing logs personally or with others.

lusty grotto

#

u want shattering throw?

lavish sphinx
#

Warriors get to ignore incorporeal - take the win

lavish sphinx
#

Interested to know more about how you guys use WowAnalyzer though. My mains are Prot Warr and Holy Priest and it says to use more spells and CDs even though they’re not necessarily needed (like popping Shield wall on cd or, for Priest, using apotheosis on cd). What do you guys actually look for?

lusty grotto
#

wowanalyzer isnt updated yet

#

hes working on it

#

wait until he finishes it

#

hes chatting with us cause hes working on it

lavish sphinx
#

Okay, so it’ll probably offer more specific advice when done?

undone verge
#

wait

undone verge
lusty grotto
#

yeah anything there is outdated, there's class listings for it

undone verge
#

this one

lusty grotto
#

if it says this

#

you shouldnt use it until its updated

#

holy priest is usable

#

well

#

its accurate up to 10.0.7 which might mean it could be a tad outdated

#

but disc is up to date at least

sullen valve
#

But I also do think that people can use CDs much more aggressively than they think due to all the CDR you can get for certain ones

#

I think right now prot warriors thresholds for certain defensives are a little high
But that is because we (mwahi and me) haven't gone through to set them up correctly yet

lusty grotto
#

the problem with tracking wall is you would need to look at all fight abilities

#

like popping it on cd, isn't really good if there's tank busters or big pulls around the corner where you need to hold off to use them for those

#

so its a lot more nuanced that can be programmed into, or correct me if im wrong there abelito

lavish sphinx
#

Agree on the more aggressive use of CDs. I know it’s off topic but the Holy Priest one seems a bit iffy cause there’s no point using CDs like Apotheosis or Divine Hymn on CD if they’re not needed

#

That’s one to take to the Priest discord I guess

lusty grotto
#

yeah i guess that's kind of similar to what im saying

lavish sphinx
#

Yeah just reading that now

#

Respect for Abelito doing this though cause I’m a dummy that wouldn’t know where to start with this problem

sullen valve
#

I think healing CDs are very strange TBH

#

Since normally healing CDs are planned
But healing CDs are also high high HPM/HPCT/HPS

#

So if you have a 3 minute healing CD
Its first planned at 3:30
There is a damage event at 0:20
You should use it there

#

even though its not planned

#

you save everyone mana

cinder nova
sullen valve
#

Gotta say
I've never been wrong

uncut thunder
proper roost
#

a better transmog for one

#

but seriously you should have crafted weapon ages ago

uncut thunder
#

I happen to like the look of Tier

proper roost
#

it's not the tier that's the issue

#

it's everything else

uncut thunder
#

ok i look bad, thanks for the pro tips

#

🙂

uncut thunder
#

But im simming now

proper roost
#

not even close and never has been

#

for keys

lavish sphinx
#

I’m confused, it looks like you have 3 embellished items but I thought you could only have 2?

uncut thunder
#

Flavor doesnt count

uncut thunder
proper roost
#

keys are not st

#

only so yeah

#

on aoe forgestorm has always been beaten

#

by higher ilvl

#

and str existing on weapon

lavish sphinx
#

Other than Kanga’s suggestion I would say another ring with a socket

uncut thunder
#

Interesting for single tar -

#

I figured the Foreg would perform better in M+

proper roost
#

literally never has

uncut thunder
#

Got it so stats really scale with multi target

#

So i guess PM LongSw then ring after

#

Thanks

lusty grotto
#

man this DH was pumpin

#

too bad the warlock sucked ass

#

also

#

chains do trip wardens

#

we didnt do anything special

#

not running in like echo or anything

#

so i guess that went into the last change

#

since chains didnt trip them before

#

and they only took the splash dmg

#

its too bad that pull sucks anyway cause it only hits wardens

#

you dont save a lot of time with it

rustic tinsel
#

I’m over this seasons dungeons deadge

warm plinth
#

what pull sucks

lusty grotto
#

the echo pull with the lava tenders

#

we were short on time so we decided to bring to chains since echo did that 3 mob pack with it

#

i was like fuck it

#

blazewing with the 2 wardens and the snapped lavabearers

#

anyway we were off by like 1 min

#

but it was good to see what changed with wardens cause that Echo thing took me by surprise

#

travel time bringing the blaze and the wardens adds up with lost uptime

#

so its just better to just snap the tenders into it and forget the chains i guess

warm plinth
#

The original change only included the bird in things that weren't affected

lusty grotto
#

yes

#

but before the changes, wardens couldnt get tripped

#

now they can

#

and obviously lavabearers are not affected by the damage

lavish sphinx
#

All chains share the same 3 min cool-down right?

lusty grotto
#

its a debuff on the player

lavish sphinx
#

Oh so others in the team can use them on sequential pulls?

lusty grotto
#

whoever doesnt have the debuff can use them

#

when you use them, the debuff is applied

#

its like forbearance kind of

lavish sphinx
#

I’ll find a video to see which ones to use on which pulls

lusty grotto
#

it depends on your route

#

but chains are only located where the majority of the mobs affected by them are

#

as in before chargath and shortly after

lavish sphinx
#

If you go left at the entrance you can kite to the right hand chains though? Or should you just start by going right?

lusty grotto
#

no

lavish sphinx
#

I guess it all depends

lusty grotto
#

you cant anymore

lavish sphinx
#

Ahh okay

lusty grotto
#

those mobs arent affected by the damage

lavish sphinx
#

Thanks

lusty grotto
#

nor can they trip the chains

lavish sphinx
#

Which mobs are affected by them? You said Wardens earlier, I assume Hunters too and Trainees, Bonetenders and the Overseer?

lusty grotto
#

yea

#

until Echo pulled the wardens into it on TGP, people assumed they behaved before the changes, where they couldnt get tripped but they still took the splash damage

#

but they can get tripped now and they still take the damage

torn gulch
#

that.s only wardens right?
from the other trash?

lusty grotto
#

correct

#

blazewing isnt affected

torn gulch
#

that's still good because fuck the warden's slash

lusty grotto
#

nor the lavamancers iirc

lavish sphinx
#

Warden’s slash is made pretty negligible with Spell Block/Reflect no? Maybe I’m just not pushing high enough keys

torn gulch
#

but yeah spell block helps a lot

lavish sphinx
#

Fair enough

torn gulch
#

i think with spell block being 30s now

#

you can SB 2 sets

#

if you time it well

lavish sphinx
#

Can they be out ranged?

#

Probably better keeping stationary for dps

torn gulch
#

tehnically yes it has a 20 yards range

#

but when you gather the pull

lusty grotto
#

wall + SR or spellblock is more than enough

torn gulch
#

they are not as bad as they used to be

#

at the beginning of the season

restive scroll
#

Problem is usually when you don't have spell block anymore, if wardens stay alive for too long.
Then it's defensive stance and pray

torn gulch
#

or i keep my talisman for moments like these

#

in high enough keys

proud tide
#

wait, 447 crafted weapon is better than forge for m+ ?

lusty grotto
#

unless you got a 447 forge, and youre consistently lucky with procs, yes

proud tide
#

my life is a lie

lusty grotto
#

forge is just better for ST though

#

even at 441

proud tide
#

yeah i have a 441 forge rn

lusty grotto
#

sim if you can cause that may vary

proud tide
#

alrighty

#

ty ty

#

tomorrows vault will be juicy

restive crown
#

how much of a dmg buff we getting with the buffs to ravager and roar?

jagged pier
#

if forgestorm is 3% or less of your damage on average

#

a crafted wep is better

#

if its more

#

then forge is better

ebon geyser
#

jakey, our stat changed? i though we value mast over anything haste and mastery

jagged pier
#

thats never been true

#

but we have said recently is u want around 20-23% mastery because it increase crit block chance by a fair amount for very little stat

#

like u can get there with tier piece and beacon pretty much

#

but if u want to go haste mastery sure do it not gunna change much at all

ebon geyser
#

ohh i was just wondering , maybe im thinking on paly stats

jagged pier
#

im pretty sure u are

#

but i dont play paly

ebon geyser
#

it was my main but im bored and just playing random toons and this guys gear was a mix of haste vers and hars crit

jagged pier
#

sounds good to me

ebon geyser
#

also wowhead guide or icy guide wich one u recommend

jagged pier
#

ummm pick your favourite llarod does a good job with wowhead guy, icy veins is written by mwahi so pick your favourite both say around the same thing but guide are only ever a starting point

remote venture
#

can you trust this mwahi guy? ;)

jagged pier
#

thats up to u

ionic fern
#

Probably not.

#

I heard he's a secret Resto shaman main.

lime urchin
#

But he has a blue name!

crude notch
#

Exactly, it's blue for resto shaman

remote venture
#

SUS

brittle owl
#

he's blue cause he moonlights as a blue man group member

#

ykno cause he's bald and blue

jagged pier
#

he has a mohawk

median tulip
#

As far as stats go, I ended up turning my OCE to Vers because it Sims higher (I went altogether too hardcore on Haste/Crit everywhere else)

brittle owl
#

he indeed had a profile pic once upon a time that looked like a mohawk but he was catfishing

jagged pier
#

its a very small optimisation for m+ u still run storm in raid

#

if u have a spare craft

#

go for it

hardy snow
#

nah, just found such 3.01% so wanted to share as it fits nicely of what you said about it, still more than said 3% 😄

lime urchin
jagged pier
#

yus

soft plume
#

in the great push why was last minute and echo using a warrior for 30 neltharions lair

hollow patio
#

Cause spell reflect is good on the last 3 bosses. Can do big damage

#

Each molten crash reflect does like what on that level? 2+ mill right?

restive scroll
#

In 24 i reflect about 4or 6 mil, so probably more :p

blazing condor

Ohh, sorry, I read "overall", not "per reflect"

Reflect works for Sunder on 2nd, Toxic Retch on 3rd and Molten Crash on 4th right?

jagged pier
#

yes

UWU

broken kite
#

damn seems fun

#

love crit

lime urchin
#

What’s that

broken kite
#

melee from a freehold

cunning inlet
#

Just getting my prot war going again. I see a fair number of well geared prot going for haste / crit instead of haste / verse, like 40+% hate, 30+% crit and half that verse and mastery. Is that right?

jagged pier
#

stats dont matter

#

u cant actually get to any % of vers where it actually does anything

#

and crit is for m+ unironically better defensivly it will stop more damage through parrying

#

that vers will over a key

#

which means

broken kite
jagged pier
#

your IP will stop more magic damage etc etc

broken kite
#

what jakey said

jagged pier
#

but again stats dont matter

#

if u want to go haste vers

#

do it

broken kite
#

(dont)

jagged pier
#

youll loose some damage

#

the vers wont save u tho

cunning inlet
#

That great because I've been getting some nice haste crit gear drops that I was sad about 🙂

broken kite
#

this is all else being equal, if you get higher ilvl always take it regardless of stats (rings, necks have some leeway)

jagged pier
#

^

broken kite
#

but with the gearing as it is now you can pretty easily pick your 447 gear stats

pallid quiver
# cunning inlet That great because I've been getting some nice haste crit gear drops that I was ...

crit gamer make big number

But yeah, strength matters the most, and crit is more technically likely to save you than vers, but is less consistent damage mitigation.

You will not notice it at all, so if you have to go hella out of your way to change pieces to crit, don't worry about it. All the secondaries are close enough that fussing over them isn't worth it unless you've got nothing else to do, since the main survivability comes from play and how you handle pulls/fights

#

It's not currently your problem, but it's worth keeping in mind if it becomes that way

jagged pier
#

Should also say as i said earlier u do actually want around 23% mastery very easy to get and the chance to crit block increases by actually fair but

broken kite
#

beacon helps there

#

and FF belt, if you run it

jagged pier
#

Yer thats like all u need 2-3 pieces and your there

#

But if u dont can gem and enchant gets u there quite easily aswell

broken kite
#

even just a couple gems

#

ye

cunning inlet
#

cool cool. thanks guys.

Dragonflight is the most fun expansion blizzard has released yet. It is so fun, in fact, you do not even have to play it!

jagged pier
#

theres nothing wrong with not having to play the game all the time

#

and just playing the game when u want too

toxic pewter
#

XD

jagged pier
#

thats infact a better way because ppl dont just upright quit because they have to keep doing content they dont want too

#

they keep it and drop in when and where they want

toxic pewter
#

I am having a lot of fun!!

#

(me standing around in valdrakken)

#

well thats u a problem

dont feel like u have to play the game

lol why would I play another game.. i literally pay to play this one.. this is such a weird take.. just dont understand it O_o

and when I dont i just ask

my guild

daring marlin
#

why would you wanna play a single fucking game

#

holy shit

jagged pier
#

^

toxic pewter
#

wat u mean

jagged pier
#

we all pay for the game

#

i get my time out of the money i play in less than a week

#

if i get 1 hour of something thats worth £1 to me

#

so a week of raiding

#

got my time for the month

#

I then play different games i enjoy

toxic pewter
#

why would I play a game other than the most fun and best expansion in wows history.. are you guys even making sense anymore?!

#

Once again- this is undisputed- DF is THE best and MOST FUN xpac

jagged pier
#

well your obviously not having fun your just complaining

toxic pewter
#

and yet.. you are telling me to stop playing it?!

#

I just do not undertand it

jagged pier
#

i never said stop playing it

#

i said u can also play something else

u dont need to spend all your time

do not engage in apb's bait

he's literally just trolling

(I do not think DF is the most fun and best xpac for the record)

honestly wish one of u would just shoot him because he contributes nothing of value

this seems to be what you all think for some reason

I just do not understand it

jagged pier

no its better than bfa and SLs

#

it is not the best exapnsion

toxic pewter
#

Right.. so why are you all not playing it?

jagged pier
#

i am

toxic pewter
#

you just said you dont even have a vault

#

and others too

jagged pier
#

yer but im still raiding

#

why do i need a vault

#

i literally cant get upgardes

#

because that is apparently all that wow has come to these days

jagged pier
#

like there isnt a piece of gear i can get

toxic pewter
#

same here

and i'm probably gonna make some form of chicken tacos with the salsa

but all wow is now is raid/m+/standing around in between these events

jagged pier
#

i mean there is a tone of casual content

#

if u dont want to do it

#

dont do it

toxic pewter
#

I do it all

jagged pier
#

so u have tier 3?

#

u have all the time rift stuff?

toxic pewter
#

well, not yet, working on it

so u dont

cause i have them

im waiting for prices to come down

#

so then your not doing the content

toxic pewter
#

time rift i have like over half the stuff

jagged pier

because u can go farm it instead of buy it

toxic pewter
#

i did the secrets of naxx

#

farming the whole set is wild

#

the drop rate for the lamented pieces is insane

jagged pier
#

i did over half of it

proper roost
#

I don't think it'll take me that long

toxic pewter
#

i havent gotten a single lamented piece

proper roost
#

i just entered act 3 last night

toxic pewter
#

and i have run naxx over 50 times on many alts

proper roost
#

and prob 2nd playthrough will be a fair bit faster

jagged pier
#

i mean i got 3 pieces out of 22 runs

toxic pewter
#

damn

jagged pier
#

so i doubt youve

#

done 50

#

but sure okay

toxic pewter
#

I may of overestimated, prob around 25 or so yea

#

3 pieces still insane though

jagged pier
#

boils down to this tho

#

if u dont enjoy the game

#

unsub

toxic pewter
#

but I love wow I wont ever unsub

jagged pier
#

then u dont have to annoyed about sitting in valdrakken

well that on u then
