Welp
fasion designer
gj to him making 14 different very rare trinkets then /s
also rewards team does design the tiersets but not their final numbers
thats why any numbers current sets do are placeholder AF
can we just have 1 very jaded person design everything soup->nuts for each spec
i dont think thats gonna fly
Maybe just have a DK design dk stuff
LOL
And a warr warr stuff
ik but id be curious to see what turns out
Sure tastes still differ but right now sets are damn ugly
like if i wanted to maximize for "fun" i would do that and tell them to all make the most op shit they can think of
and what do they do after that?
Just give every class devoker fire breath in pvp that oneshots
Make it a brawl for pve/pvp
To see the mayhem without further consequences
fuck it
lets overbuff items each season
then once the new season comes
nerf the old ones into the floor
thats surely fun

Dungeons are so fucked we need broken items

Power creep ruined destiny. Lets have it ruin wow too
thats why we get resets each xpac
to reel in the powercreep
like stat squishes, lvl squishes
etc
it would be each spec designer against one another trying to make their specs as op as possible (with some rules ofc)
itll happen every 2 xpacs at this pace
Might be an old mind set but i have no issue with leggos being useful for like a tier the expansion after tbh
I kinda want a nother lvl squish rn. Numbers are getting pretty big
Doing 10k dps in highmaul felt good
11.0 does 100% bring a stat squish
Numbers arent even close to big
not a single doubt in my mind
I played SoO heroic i know numbers can get bigger but why let it come to that point
Mop was millions and they had to sesign a boss to do 2 full hp resets because 32 but
At least we in 64 bit now
squish mainstat, keep secondary stats... i dont like low haste in every season 1
I remember 1.5 mil stormbolts trust me
But i dont want that again
So squish earlier rather than later
yeeeees
we already had over 30% haste in s1 this xpac?
Oh god yes
My sham has 108% haste 50% of the fight. Its fine
agreed
#raidingistoohardperiod
if 11.0 doesnt bring a squish of any form
then we'll start with having DPS doing close to 1mil dps in raid
im kinda just trolling- i realize those things are unrealistic, but sometimes going too far the other way sucks
in the first raid
I wouldnt even mind them going way overboard with the squish
by the end of the xpac then dps will do north of 5million single target
if they dont do a squish
The problem with the squish what do u do wih old items
Loke most expansions now match in lvl
Who cares about old items
buff their ilvl
Youre lvl70 in 2 days
they did it w crafted gear s1->s2
old items just get squished
just like they did from bfa to sl
lvl zones can stay the same
i hope we only get to lvl 75 tho next xpac
Blizz is a 100 bilion dollar company im sure they can figure something out
ofc
the solution is squish
thats inevitable
every 2 xpacs
and lvl squish every 4 or smth
maybe more
How does FFXIV handle stats? I played it for some time but only did extremes and ultimates and didnt care about anything else
fuck if i know
@ nim
Iirc it’s just very incremental
No trinkets
and the raids are tuned around them being bis geared
they also dont have customisability of their class as much as we do
so balancing is alot simpler
sadly combat sucks
why do people play it then
kekw
that game offers alot more than just raiding
Aye
In wow raiding and M+ are like 80% of the game
In FFXIV raiding is more like 10%
90% of the game is dressing like a hoe and dancing in limsa
more mmo than rpg
its both
Ye
Its also way more single player if you want it to be
wow you cant play alone, literally cant
well traditional rpg = i make class end level end gear and become god
unless you want to ignore endgame
Apart from the ultimates and savage raids you can do that
Also FFXIV has no real endgame compared to wow. M+ scales endlessly
FFXIV only has normal dungeons
Sooo. Get gear and you feel like a god
we curious about ff item scaling
ffxiv has more replayability because you can play old raids "like back in the day, just with current class balance"
I don’t really think the combat of FFXIV sucks
Its boring
it doesnt
You have a set rotation and nothing else
I think it’s actually pretty good, assuming you’re not talking about the 1-60 experience
That portion is bleh
ogcd weaving is decently entertaining
DPS got a 1-5 tanks got a 1-3
from my limited 35hrs experience its incredibly stale and single minded
But it’s certainly different than WoW
early game its absolute trash ngl nome
You just need to learn your rotation and youre done
I don’t think having a “set rotation” is bad
and theres no such thing as active mitigation
No way to improve
there is active mit
That’s not true at all
How do you improve pressing 5 buttons in order for 10 mins straight
Instead of getting better at pressing your buttons in a randomish sequence
Knight has darkest night once every 45 sec or so xd
at least endgame, for the active mit thing
You’re getting better at getting a few more casts in through a fight with complex mechanics
If you cant count to 5 maybe gaming isnt for you^^
i also dislike the fact that the only shield class is paladin
why paladin
i dont wanna play paladin
Cause gladiator
Yet again someone making weird arguments I’m not making….
We are talking about class here not encounter design dude
isnt war just a 1 button spec in ffxiv
The warrior isnt too bad i enjoy S1 of Sls when the tmog big was in
Classes are ALL the same. If you know one you know all
3 buttons
Tldr FFXIV combat is about executing the fight well and your class should be something less….active in terms of dedicating brainpower.
WoW is a mixture of both
actually there's a lot of brainpower involved
That’s not even remotely true though
its just that they are talking about selective jobs
Go play black mage well in difficult content lmfao
Oh nice. Ley lines are super hard
Spoiler alert you won’t be able to unless you actually know the fights
I don’t think either game is outright better than the other
They’re both very different
Agree on that
im always behind on parses cause my static is super casual so im behind on weapon upgrades
Also doesn’t one of the classes have this massive ass flow chart based on RNG?
So they’re really not all the same
and because there's no ilvl parsing like wow does my numbers will always be horrible
hmmm
all classes literally parse based on RNG
a good BLM parse is the one where you crit meld and have almost all your hits be crits or direct hits
Hold on I’m going to find the flow chart
and also mechs dont fuck your positioning (which happens most of the time anyway)
Its still the same. All Tanks got the same CDs. All melee got positionals and so on
but yeah WAR gameplay is simple
All dps got their 1-5 rota
DRK and GNB gameplay arent
and PLD gameplay is kind of in-between
but no
tanks do not have the same CDs
they all have active mit, but its not the same
Ah yes Astralogian
DK has darkest night thats it
dps cds? they are different
Astro is a healer. It doesnt matter and you cant farm your rota
Wut
AST mains are gods
Or am i stupid rn
Healer rotations absolutely matter in FFXiV
Wasnt astro the support heal with cards?
You acting like healers aren’t having to do damage and are expected to do so even
You acting like 99% of healers in FFXIV arent heal bots
Ive done ultimates with healers being bots
You dont NEED heals to do dps
Sure they can
But its not needed
Most of the healers I run into aren’t heal bots
And ofc they should
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i think the biggest challenge for people is ABC in savage/ults
well for everyone but mostly casters
either way that's something any wow player should already be doing, but its not as required
in wow
it is for ffxiv
and with dances, positioning, mechs involved it becomes overwhelming extremely fast
ABC as in always be casting
FFXIV has dope telegraphs. At some point the brain just reacts through muscle memory
Missing that in WoW still
Might make DBM obsolete
I think the best way to describe it is:
FFXIV is the guy who only does the basics but does them at an insanely high level
WoW is the dude who did the basics until he got it and then started doing some advanced stuff but isn’t quite a master because of it
Biggest complaint I have about WoW tbh
both games are so different, but i really enjoy raiding in both separately, even though i dislike pugging (in WoW) and PFing in ffxiv
Same. Just hearing the telegraph sounds clicks in my brain
If you like dungeon content WoW hands down is better unfortunately
I think FFXIV could really benefit from more dungeon content
Yea FFXIV has no endgame apart from savage
yeah there's no replacement for M+
Ultimates just transmogg
Also only like what? 4 Bosses per patch cycle?
Ye when a NEW ultimate comes out every 18 years
Ultimates are legit BiS weapons
But then: relic
yeah this tier, we didnt get a 3rd ultimate so relic will happen
What was the last Ultimate before the heavensward dude
Thats also a good thing about FFXIV tho. There is a point where you can just stop and wont miss out
I need to continue playing it tbh
Still haven’t capped
Too much to do while leveling to distract
Did you do post ARR yet?
Yeah
yeah its a good thing that you can pick it up anywhere
Hardest part done 
Nah I legit enjoyed it all
Not weird. Everything gets referenced eventually.
Payoff was worth every second
game gud
heh wait till you do Shadowbringers and Endwalker
The problem though is post ARR content outside of story feels useless
Because you’re barely advancing your character at all
yes super spoiler
Griff how far are you rn?
enjoy having your heart torn out a couple dozen times
Literally just finished stormblood
B R O T H E R
Oh sweet
Stormblood was a slog too without flying
Make sure you grab the flying sheet
With the compass
It was worse than heavansward for sure but holy shit do they know how to make compelling villains
Nah
Zeno
I dont wanna spoiler you so i cant say shit
Oh fuck yeah zenos is dope asf
A TEST OF YOUR REFLEXES
it would be interesting if dot from this weapon (waycrest manor) would count toward new 2p, but I guess too op, so no fun allowed 
No stats :/
Wasn’t optional afaik
At least according to the wiki thing that I was given
which thing
OH
All the post ARR quests you had to do to get to Heavansward lol
yeah those are good to do just for the mini stories
if you mean the raid stories griff
but
yeah there's a lot of garbage post ARR like rooach says
like the refugees thing in mor dhona
the good news is that post expansions get better after that
I think it would but idk if it re applies enough to matter
I'm much more curious how leech will work with this, i think it could be a significant survival bonus
Im sure the stats you need to give up on the axe counteract any dmg or surv bonus you could get otherwise
oh my god the ARR filler back when i had to do it was fucking terrible
I'm so sad I looked in her and had to be reminded of that
shit was godawful
rememebr you had to build mor dhona
no fuck you i remember shit
None of that had any reason to exist
It wouldnt be so bad if it wasnt followed by a masterpiece of an expansion
I did. It owned.
Loved ARR when it was current.
I only started with prepatch shadowbringers
i took a break after HW
Looks like i dodged a bullet
I think stormblood was one of the only times I took a break too.
is cloak any good for prot?
Sark? No
and by that i mean VoSS
so kinda started from Stormblood to ShB to get back up to date
to dps focused?
its only for raid parsing if anything
the proc rate is really bad
absolutely bad for keys
like 500%
gotcha
@lusty grotto can i ask u something about git and virtual environments
sure
ya know how when you have a virtual environment your console looks like this within your ide
with the (venv)
yes?
do i need to CD to somewhere else in order to git push without my venv included in the push*?
uhh
so like venv is a virtual machine
it depends if you have a way to access its storage
then you can do it from the host
yea
what are you trying to push? code?
when i 'ls' it still gives me the contents of the root though
yes
do you mean the host root?
yeah
ok so
well in theory you can
just CLI/terminal/cmd/powershell there
you just need git installed on the host
oh tru
i should just not push through my ide
well pushing through IDEs is fine
but if you wanna learn a bit more, then yea
im fucking lazy and just push through intellij or vscode
or whatever git client i have lmao
like sourcetree or kraken
You still kinda had to do something about building it iirc when I went through it
or sublime merge
i always git add .->git commit -m ""->git push in the terminal
That was like Shadowbringers when I started playing I think
Idk you had to do stuff with refugees and shit
It’s been a while
fuck i forget the name
Yea
Doma nuts fit in ur mouth
😱
Bojzan soutern front
oh yea bozja

I made a few of them including the WAR one
i swear ive tried to stop myself from laughing
Im on the last one time grind step
Friend finished 2 days earlier than me and it broke me. Not gonna grind that shit solo
i cant remember the ones i finished, i know i finished BLM/WAR/WHM for sure
but yeah its a dumb grind
but still not as bad as ARR's
that one is fucking ass
Dayum those FF character models tho
Mommy yshtola "fan art"
I love how all the fan art memes just crop her tits then call it finished
lmao
You know guils a fan

ty nim i needed a quick outside perspective lol
dude i cant time a key this week
its like peopel decided swirlies on ground means stand int it
btw take docker courses as soon as you can
if you havent done so
VMs are good but containers are kinda dominating too
and kubernetes etc
im working on a docker project rn
nice
after years i got IT to get me a server space
and am migrating my django project w a sqlite server to be on docker with mysql
What do the 10.2 set bonuses mean for us and our gameplay
If someone wouldn't mind explaining to a simpleton
that's great, migrating from VM to containers is a huge learning experience
Nothing. More TC and way more deepz
Spend rage on IP. Get procc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gLkO88HR9s make em bleed is what it means
Music from the game Alien Shooter
yea so far it is going pretty smooth, just wanted to get all this shit professionally sorted too lol
so i can actually utilize the convenience of git and docker lol
both are excellent, but can be a pain in the ass when you touch some edge cases
like everything
What embelishments are we using on prot? didn't find anything on FAQ.
2x shadowflame or 1x shadowflame + unstable frostfire
either is fine
if you had a UFFB from s1, then go the 2nd route, otherwise go for the first one
FF it is then, gotta craft one since it's my alt.
thanks.
Do we put any enchants on our shields? is it even possible? 😄
nope
Can someone explain the differenec between dodge and block?
dodge you completely avoid damage, warriors dont do that
we parry, which is similar
any damage?
physical
melee hits
block you dont really avoid the damage, you take a little bit depending on K values
So doesn't work on magical hits or bleed effects?
dodge and parry? no
Ah so dodge and parry are in the same category right?
block does not apply to bleed effects either
spell block makes our shield block block magical nukes
and a very select number of dot ticks
the number is extremely small
magma's dots and sarkareth void slash are kind the only notable dot ticks you can spell block
as a warrior
the good thing about spell block is you can stop 100% of the attack if the calculation is big enough
By block i meant the block stats.
i forget the exact numbers but block stops after reducing like 85% dmg
Block chance.
so block is affected by the block value of your shield
block chance doesn't matter
because if you have Shield Block up, you have 100% chance to block
so the only important stat is block value, which you can get by having the highest ilvl shield you can find
and the talent shield spec
so really the only way block value goes up is by having a big fat shield
So block stat only works on melee hits?
not physical or magical hits? I main bdk so this is kinda new to me.
for the most part, and while spell block is enabled on magical attacks
it works on spells if you have spell block talented and active
spells that could be blocked anyways
all melee attacks can be blocked, parried, and dodged (but we dont do this last one)
but if you want a list of other attacks that arent in that category
i think that spell block requires you to have shield block up so you get 100% chance to block and its not RNG if you blocked the spell or not
there's a pinned excel sheet with that info
as well as reflectable spells etc
correct spell block requires you to have shield block up to properly function
so, for instance, say the boss has an ability that coats their weapon in magic and strikes at all players infront of them in a cone, or it puts a swirl on the ground, you cant spell block those
Is Spell block used in m+ content?
yes you can read where in the faq
alright, thanks guys
Also, i remember prot was pretty good on s1. What made the demand go so low in s2? Can't recall any nerfs or anything
prot pal replaced us cause it had utility in higher keys
Weren't utilities the same as in s1?
then druids got reworked, and while VDH was creeping up as well due to their damage, any utility trumps all
or was it the content rotation change?
prot pal got reworked
then druid got reworked
thats the gist of it
they got tanky and have utility so
yes that's what i meant
so basically, the reason the populace at large swapped is because some big streamer or other said so
A large majority of the player base do not do the thinky
yes that's the way meta goes
Agreed.
So it's not even that Prot War was bad/became bad, they just got viewed as bad
always
also damn, doing the timewalking stuff just for the free gear casually for catchup,
people have their knickers in a hell of a knot
I haven't had a group of decent people at all today
so how many bleeds do prot warrior have in total
Rend, Deep Wounds, T Roar are the main three that will pop up
thats what i thought
Yea think there's a hidden affix on this week. Runs are a mess.
how are we thinking the new set bonus is gonna be ?
shrug
Depends on what they do to it from now until launch
They could make it proc every time we spend rage, could make it proc once an M+ run
The idea's fine
the damage sounds good but thats about it
It's also like 15% DR on a prio target
2% per bleed consumed
10% from 2P
thats only like 6%
how though
2P gives 10%
the math aint mathin
and then 4p gives more for the bleeds
2P?
2 piece
Yeah, deep wound+ rend will al;ways be up
i thought people on ptr were saying it procs like, every ~40 rage you spend
Nome said like 10-12 ppm earlier i thought
either way, liable to change
Are bears still meta right now?
i';m seein' a lotta bears
Explains why I'm seeing a lot of levelling bears who aren''t pressing their buttons
until the keys testing comes through, and classes potentially shifted around (around motw)
who knows what will happen honestly
make it so that every time we proc our tier set, we also proc execute
do it cowards
they won't
Is there a comprehensive M+ guide for Prot Warr out on the Internet? Rebooting my guy from S1 to push a few portals.
QuazliWoW on YouTube. Otherwise wowhead or icyveins
BF5 isa fun when there isn't hackers
so far
i thought i had heard some of the new call of duties were cursed or general bad brown shooter
Bro why the hell do we have sleeves on our tier
would you guys use sandlgass or scale in keys
The sleeves look like a bug.
Hourglass seems like a good pwar trinket. Scale seems bad. Warriors usually don't die quickly. It won't heal much. Will prob depend on the dungeons-- if there's big magical tank nukes that can't be blocked reflected or kicked, or a huge bleed it might have value.
I heard that warrior doesn't die quickly because of the good mitigation but has to be healed since not much self heal
it is simple. if we can block the damage we good. if we cant it can get spooky
Usually it’s just a maintenance HOT
+something here and there
Only times I take big boy damage is when I play badly and take 5 backshots or miss a defensive
Also hourglass sims pretty well for us but the long ass CD is annoying, though seeing my haste hit 120% with lust is pretty neat. I'd rather just have an anvil or something passive... Not that im confident I can keep anvil up most of the time but in a perfect world
jfc, I lost 35% of my rage gen from shield charges, only 5% from the bashes but damn
I think every single one of those intersects with Last Stand
I was gonna go back to blood dk cause the war tier (cosmetically) looked ass, but the wowhead up close shit and no weird sleeves has me second guessing myself. I kinda like it now
They always come crawling back
im a slave to trying to look cool
Hello prot friends..I was planning on tanking m+ to get my last 200 points for 2500. Would you guys say I "have" to get a pathing addon like method dungeon tools or will I be able to tankit by just remembering the routes from dpsing? 🤔. I like to minimize addon usage but if you prot mains think it's a requirement I don't see a reason to gimp myself
MDT could be nice to check your pathing before you go % wise. Rest you can yolo
i always yolo xD just some spots need remember how much i want before i pass a certain spot
Most pulls are pretty intuitive. mdt is more distracting than anything, I used to think I'd have to have it open every other pull but stopped after like 3 dungeons. Just keep moving, if you're just doing pug pulls its hard to miss % anyways.
For that rating u can press w
FH being the big exception
I also feel like why download mdt when the lowest DPS is always gonna let me know we missed % as soon as it happens anyways
u see np u have reminder xD atleast he do something good then 😉
Well as far as I know it's basically the exact same route from BFA with either pulling more around the ring or grabbing that extra pack right before boss?
Does this mean the Spell Reflect WA that tells me when to reflect won't work soon?
(Didn't find the news in english)
I hope they just mean like full screen overlays people were using to put like markers and what to do in the arena on your screen for you at all times not CD tracker stuff
Hope that too... I love this reflect thing.. makes me feel like a god
%
I'll stream my runs and the chat can pay 20 bucks to blast an air horn to let me know I missed %
what wa do u use?
yep, just meant it as the exception to having an extremely straightforward route where missing % is basically impossible
Realistically just learn how to do the first big pull of a dungeon and it'll make up for any inefficiencies in your routing
Speaking of which uh I can ask suggestion for the item to use here right? Like what to choose
of course
Erga been back a day doing yellow stuff already
great, do we have something like uh armory so ppl can see and advice stuffs? Also any dreambound gear is good?
best bet is prob to link a recent top gear sim i think
and i have no idea what dreambound gear is so ask jakey about that 

erga ur pfp is sad turn that frown upside down
for me it's great since you know... I just do raid finder once this week as last week I just fresh got into 70
well then its okay
very sad
ok then I might buy some gear
crying even


just watch some classic hardcore deaths to cheer u up because its always someone being stupid
best thing are ppl literally malding when they die at like lvl 15
bro
yeah lol
it takes like an hour to get there
there are a lot of ppl that cant get past that
and literally die doing the same mistakes
eveyrtime
like going into caves
just like retail 
when the mobs are still yellow
LMAO thanks jakey

Question to jakey if you are willing to help me
shoot
So I use this
https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/protection-warrior-pve-tank-gear-best-in-slot?area=area_3
as a baseline on what I should work on, of course maybe still in raid finder version since real raid might be a bit far for me with 10.2 also coming soon.
Now the question is I saw all that gear is from raid right, and some gear got versa status, what if there is a dreambound gear or catch up gear that got haste and crit, instead of haste versa? just take the dreambound gear?
here u go 
your focusing too much on stats
stats mean very little compared to ilvl
even then if the pieces are the same ilvl u take the one with more haste
crit and vers are equal anyway so u can choose which one u want to go for in the long run
my sleep paralysis demon..
looks smug
Oh I just remember more question for example piece 1 is 402 ilvl with Haste Mastery, piece 2 is 415 ilvl with Crit Versa, just replace it even if got no haste?
Yes.
yes
Hi. What do you think about the bonus set in 10.2? To me it seems semi-useless in m+ where we are already in bad shape due to chronic lack of utility, perhaps in raids it is a little better, but even there it doesn't seem to intervene in the sector that worries us least: damage reduction.
"Chronic lack of utility"? "Damage reduction"?
What.
No healing = no utility I guess
Paladin has always had it's insane "utility"
But somehow they weren't even on the radar all of bfa and most of SL
almost like utility is a buzzword to gatekeep
And mentioning raid relevance and damage reduction as a weak point in the same sentence is kinda whack
Nobody really cares about defensive prowess in raid outside of like top 10 guilds
Past that point it's just a thing of git gud 
Well the raid defensive comes with a gazillion damage deleting bleeds
None of the other tank sets do a ton of st I think
(he's just farming)
Also now you can throw away points to have 2x bb
If you are into that
Sims will tell
If you don't need Spellblock, you can talent out of enduring Defenses potentially
I think it’s better than nails for sure in raid
And get 2x BB
And how do you path to punish?
Wait no doesn’t bb also path to punish
Cuz if you can get 1,you can get 2
Oh yeah
Yes but it's 2 points
Either nails/bolster/spellblock
Ye
u can still get 15k dps out of the tier set with that
both nome and me this morning have got that
and thats without bb
and from testing yesterday its about 2k more dps from the tier set with 2x bb
so its not much of a gain anyway
true
Overall, hows it play? Just kinda the big slam every so often?
~10-12 procs per minute if you play well
of extra damage on shield slam
need to remember to reapply rend often via TC
Yeah just make sure both bleeds are still ticking
How is prot warrior ranked now in DPS compared to other tanks?
But I mean we just have to survive right? Let the dps worry about their dps.
in raid sure
In m+ you still need to do damage
But tank dps still matters a bit in raid
surviving is the bare minimum job of a tank
and playing optimally defensively also means youre playing really aggressively offensive
there is no pure defense playstyle
at the current moment, in raid our ST is a big behind the other tanks
in m+ our damage is really close with everyone else, bear only gets the upside of being able to survive infinitely large pulls for exceedingly long whilst non-stop pumping dps
and brew aoe is just really strong by default
BDK aoe is also really good, but their ST is low
well the new tier set make op for that? so prot warr well be use in raid?
Won't be OP for it
But our ST increases a good margin
And we get alot or consistent DR on the boss
Tank usage doesnt depend purely on dps. Looking at sarkareth for example
So it's a big ol' maybe
tank choice for RWF is as following:
- raid buff (bshout / mystic touch / chaos brand)
- cheese potential /utility (Grips/AMS/Spellward/Bubble/Bop/roar(every druid brings that))
- dmg output
- survivability
In this order
Spell block
im currently tking nome approach to wow
only log in to fart around
havent done a single key this week yet
tbd
need them gone..
blizzard make enjoyable affixes challenge (impossible)
Tangled is fine
Bring back prideful
I rather have the seasonal affixes again if that means we get rid of incorp
Told the new guy he needs MC
YES IT IS READ THE FUCKING AFFIX
friendly reminder to try not to gatekeep too much and help out in a kind way 
me as warrior when incorp/afflicted
Thats why i only said yes

Even told him where to get the point
But having to explain a talent 10 times in an hour is rough
i would prefer to see blizzard have the affixes tuned for season 3
and then by 11.0 completely new ones
something we haven't ever seen before or couldnt predict
what dk spec is that
Frost
Classic
Key dead. Tank just left
Cant even complete a 15 in weeks where ppl need to press 1 additional button
Last one im posting. Sry for spam but this one cracked me up
Seeing all this makes me glad i don't plan on logging back in for a few more weeks 
Lies of P soon 🙏
tbf the priest can solo them
My favorite word in low keys is redundancy 
Amen ❤️
While he's keeping everyone alive? This mentality is why pugging is a shit show. Takes 1 second to help with affix and makes the key more enjoyable for everyone.
It's a 15, what's there to heal lmao
Youre both right. Usualy healers handle it solo but ppl just dumping it on the healer without at least picking it for emergencies is garbanzo
ehm
Am i doing something wrong or very right
New partition
Since 10.1.7 just hit this week
So it's easier than normal to snag 100s
Oh sweet
They won't lock in for a few days*
So if anybody after you does better, he takes your 100 away
Nobody with 430 will do more than 113 i think im good
lol
Havent played the chars in 3 months. Everything above 90 is fine for me honestly
ofc i am. Why would i compare my 431 to 448s 😄
Fake R1 smh
its also only HC
Just using them to flex on my friend who buys boosts for all his chars
I skipped out on tanking because Fury was good this tier.
How wrong am I for playing Battle-Scarred Veteran but dropping Battering Ram for it?
battle scarred veteran doesnt work properly
if he buys boosts, isnt just finishing raid enought to flex? XD
As in the dr doesn’t apply correctly ?
I swapped into it when I picked prot back up in .5 because I was rotating defensives in DoTI but Murozond hurted and I needed one more thing to save me
because it procs very unexpectedly
ask healer for external 
been running some myt doungens ( no lag ) to try out the new tier set and so on, atm, i really like the feel of it, also that roar is getting faster to use is nice while the tc reset feels nice if you dont have alot of haste, its very smooth, its pog
it procs based off of pre-mitigated values.
so let's say something hits you which would bring you low enough to proc it. But you had that damage mitigated through, for example, shield block and shield wall, and it actually didnt bring your HP that low. The talent still procs
Kinda but hes sometimes leeching like 4 PIs in his guild runs so i need to at least get some good logs 😄
why is your guild wasting PIs on someone, who needs to buy boosts? 🤔
Its not my guild. Im pugging everything. Its a friends guild that fills with randos so instead of giving it to good randos they give it to him 
On top of that, Battering Ram also gives survival through more instances of Devastator, which can reset Shield Slam, meaning more rage to spend
In order to get good use out of Battle Scarred Vet, you have to specifically plan around it due to how it activates, so you need to pretty much plan to be in the situation you need it for in advance, such as specifically 3 minutes into a fight after it trivially procs at the start or something along those lines
as compared to simply swinging faster almost half the time giving more shield slams
Oh okay I see I see. Thank you for the insight everyone.
Excuse me sir I’m very proud of my 100 ilvl parse on mythic zskarn
That's a different kind of funny
My overall parse went to shit because I died 30 seconds before boss died
But I mean still ending up with a 62 on a prog kill when you died and had 30+ seconds of nothing seems decent
Also fuck that boss
25€ btw
Tauren looks dumb with 95% of gear
If you’re a Tauren and you’re not mogging to reflect WC3 then you’re wrong
There's very specific things that you do to make Tauren mog look good; it's most about the shoulders, helm, and gloves in that order
and you generally want to cover chest pieces with tabards because they just get stretched so much
Or no chest
There are no helmets for Tauren. They just dont exist
I like the new totems from the trading post for tauren tho
@sick sentinel How do you handle spamming 17s. I have so many 445s doing 80k overall here wtf
Welcome to the club
hey can you get me in those 17s
i'm pretty sure i can pull more than 80k overall at like, 395 or something
While doing timewalkings on alts, I saw a prot war who never pressed revenge
a single time
They only used Whirlwind
it makes me feel things that said person was the best tank i had all day
This fuckin guy (priest) was like 440 something
He had the gall to whine about chains not being “right” in neltharus
damn there's an aug in there, too
some people really just need to hit the training dummy more often and they just refuse to
Like I’m a 430 something prot boi
like 5-10 minutes a day does wonders
I shouldn’t be out damaging you
Especially when you have an Aug
But yeah chains are the “problem”
For reference adds were brought to chains btw
I swear people latch onto the weirdest things in keys, like stop worrying about if chains are perfect in an 18 just press your buttons
Is the Zskarn dot spell blockable like Sarkareth's dot?
Press your buttons don’t die
Thank you
It's not even just keys; I've had some people lose their shit over random shit in timewalking dungeons, even
Keys legit are press w and don’t die
like i know we can just hop over the river after first boss in that one wotlk dungeon instead of going around my guy,
Once you get that down then we can start worrying about pressing w into the right areas and not dying
there's no reason to spam every last ping and shout "FUCKING MORONS" if someone doesn't do that
At any rate, that was my reminder that the ping system exists now
K key done
Somehow we timed
This is how it looks at the end
Pala is 443
I am 431
We not gonna talk about the DH below tank
Pala ofc also helped alot with CC
Serves you right meta slave
Brew ftw
Slave
If brew didnt have 45 buttons i'd play mine too
Where is weapons of order
PTA picker detected
Press the advantage isnt sweaty enough
Opinion rejected
Everything cock ever said says or will ever say is invalid
na for real tho
PTA is giga terrible in AoE. I rather not play at all if i have to handicap myself this much
2 less buttons
Yeah i know. I played with the thought of just going PTA but the amount of dps im losing just isnt worth it
Actually true tbh
So ill just stick to prot warr and BDK
Class needs about 2-3 less buttons
Ye PTA is good for 30s
murlok 
Even the WoWhead guide says PTA is viable for hard content
But none of us plays 30s
So PTA is garbanzo beans
Also Murlok is just as useless as u.gg
Yes so useless because murlok only take the top 50 players for each spec
They websites can be good but u need to know why are what your looking at basically
Its why we hate that other one that just scrapes all the info because its just mot useful as ppl just follow thw trickles down even if its wrong
If ppl do it in 30 it must be good for my 14 weekly
Applies to 22+
No it doesnt
22s are not 30s
High content is like 26s
Sure stuff from murlock might be good there
30s have insane teamplay. 22s still dont
What is even the context
pta on brew
PTA is giga hard trolling unless you die without it
worth
Other way around. You lose big aoe for ST
honestly idk how it works i just said it was good in reference to brew having a lot of buttond
good step in removing bloat from the class
if its not taken then that sucks but fixed with tuning ofc
Well a Guide for a ferarri is still terrible if i have a WV and a guide to a racetrack and how to deal with corners is still shit if i drive in the city only^^
Its just for different areas
you lose the boc -> tp combo which constitutes most of your ST dmg actually
murlok is almost never better thsn wowhead
Just a brtief overview
it's a damage loss for both aoe and st, the only use it has is simplifying the spec
you lose tigerpalm
Because woiwhead shows embellishments ect
which crits for 200k or some shit
Oh ye you guys right
playing PTA
is just trolling
to gain 3% aoe
but lose your strongest ST/prio button
2 less buttons
PTA gives huge rising dmg tho doesnt it
I mean it doesnt matter what you play in 22s
Works for me as 5 is always taunt
still a loss bc u use tiger palm a lot in st
Just saying its still a big hit
"huge"
Eh, I mean I’ll troll myself to make the class actually playable
"doesnt it" 

My OCD wouldnt let me play brew because my brain would always yell at me thati m sub optimal lmao
buffing your aoe, as the already highest dps tank, at the cost of .. 17%(i believe pao said) ST dmg
sounds like a real bad fucking deal to me
less buttons always good
sure for your weekly key its whatever
Exactly
at those levels nothing matters
I dont do 20+ on monk so
well evidence suggests
that even on 30s it doesnt matter
but youre not doing yourself any favours either
I dont even follow trhe guide just play what i like personally and what dungeon ect
Only posted that cause roaach asking where weapons at, most people dont even play it, probably for same reason less buttons
Even equinox runs PTA 
Mr dps himself ofc
Eranog as outlaw pad heaven
Beautiful
how come protwar channel is talking abt brew...
As long as mwahi doesnt see us we are talking about everything
If mwahi sees us we are running for our dear lifes
Pvp chat talks about wind Walker a lot why not brew in prot?
