Fair

#

Does regular mythic still have the rotational bossesnfor 2nd

sharp ruin
#

I mean the set still not look bad

sick sentinel
#

alld they did is good animations for UR and FH last bosses

strong forum
#

set is now overall better

#

for m+

#

in raid it lost alot of dmg

#

alot of dmg

lament shell
#

yo the damage reduction is so op you have perma uptime on 15% dr

#

wtf is this

strong forum
#

more than 60% nerf because it auto consumes TR

tawny meteor
#

does this mean its now going off deep wounds now as well

strong forum
#

it always did?

sharp ruin
#

It consume al rhe dot but do only 40% of the damage?

strong forum
#

thats just flag shit

sharp ruin
#

Like wtf is legit shit like that ahaha

lusty karma
sick sentinel
#

40% is a bit low maybe they will buff it later. before release

sharp ruin
#

Come on if it consume all the dot it haha to do al least 65 to 75% of the damage

lusty karma
#

It’s what we get for going in strong to PTR, always happens to strongest ones, why it’s better to be mid and get buffs

sharp ruin
#

40% is waaaay too low

lusty karma
#

I’m guessing they’ll buff it at some point slightly but we’ll see

vocal nimbus
#

why new 2pc damage nerfed sadga

lusty karma
#

Personally I think they fucked up and should’ve hit the proc rate as now it fucks TR bad

#

Going this route makes the tier set feel bad when it inevitably eats our TR’s

strong forum
#

it feels bad period

#

cuz its a single target dps nerf from current tierset

lusty karma
#

Yep

strong forum
#

from what was a giga good ST set

#

turned into dogwater ST (not rly but not a significant gain anymore)

lusty karma
#

I would’ve preferred a nerf to proc rate instead

#

Leave the damage at 100% and make it proc a little less

strong forum
#

proc rate scales with your ability to press buttons so its fine

#

but because people overabused mega vers gear

#

tierset looked alot bigger than it was initially

#

or maybe it just looks so bad because it cant rly crit

#

so we lose a big chunk of dmg on it

#

even if you go full vers andy

edgy kindle
#

Dumb question, does the tier consume the full bleed to deal 40% dmg, or does it only consume 40% of the remaining time or, what exactly means consume 40% of a bleed?

inland raft
#

Remaining damage x.4

strong forum
#

it literally states "consumes the bleed for 40% dmg of its remaining duration"

#

its fine for rend and deep wounds as they get instantly reapplied

#

but TR gets straight up nerfed by 60% in ST

edgy kindle
#

Hmmm, I see, thanks

vestal moat
#

the fix should be it does 40% of the remaining damage immediately, doesnt consume at all. the rest of the 60% ticks as normal.

inland raft
#

Still a slight boost cuz the cdr beans get roughly 3x as many drs but its pretty rough

strong forum
#

4pc cdr for TR comes around to about 50% CDR1

#

so its just a huge loss in ST

#

which still doesnt make spear playable because you lose wildstrikes and thunderous words to get it

inland raft
#

What if drop unstoppable and grab the cdr talent? Lose 50% on tc but get more roars

strong forum
#

is likely a raw dmg gain yes

edgy kindle
#

Surely they'll make something about it and won't let us lose TR st dmg clueless

grand veldt
#

I would be annoyed less if it only consumed 40% of the duration

#

Then we at least keep some extra dot damage

vale escarp
#

How about just remove the 2p TR interaction, would it fix all the st damage problems?

grand veldt
#

The 2px guys the dog shit heal we could get from wounds too

vale escarp
#

I mean the removing dot

grand veldt
#

Guts*

#

That one talent that healed you for 110% wounds ticks

strong forum
#

god i hate PTR lag

real fossil
strong forum
#

either not consume it at all

#

or consume it for 100% dmg

hardy snow
#

its so dumb that it consumes bleed and doesnt compensate this consume

warm plinth
#

Yeah this is very dumb since it legit just nerfs TR potentially a lot since it's not like you're gonna hold SS for 15 seconds lol

real fossil
#

seems like some wild burst

inland raft
#

It was a short sighted change looking at rend damage without thinking of tr, hopefully theyll adjust it

real fossil
#

4 piece could add " & consumes for 100% TR instead)

warm plinth
#

It should absolutely be all or nothing on TR

#

The others don't matter since they'll basically be instantly reapplied

real fossil
#

very odd synergies with reducing TR CD and then gimping it lol

strong forum
#

this set turned from an insane raid set and meh m+ set

real fossil
#

i could see why it would be bad game design for insane TR burst

strong forum
#

to a meh raid set

#

and insane m+ set

hardy snow
strong forum
#

yeah i dont like it

#

i rather have good fucking ST dmg

inland raft
#

Personally im happy cuz only m+ but from design biew not a fan

#

Im sure they’ll figure something out

#

Hopefully

strong forum
#

at this point i dont even play the game

strong forum
#

i just login, collect gear every now and again

#

but i'd prefer to have an interesting dmg profile again like in SL

lusty grotto
#

but i vomited demerol or w/e the sedation shit was

#

wait what happened

#

did something change, i just woke up

strong forum
#

tldr is in pins

lusty grotto
#

ah fuck i just read it

strong forum
#

so we lost roughly 10k+ ST dps with this

#

which means

#

we're now competing with VDH for last place again

hardy snow
#

btw. I dont think "60% TR dmg loss in ST" is correct statement, we lose only 60% of remaining dot, and part of TR dmg is also on hit, and set may not proc right after applying TR so we may get one or two full ticks

strong forum
#

its still a 60% loss compared to before?

lusty grotto
#

and with rally nerfed...

strong forum
#

like

#

huh

real fossil
#

52% loss or 60% loss is still big number

#

and bad game design

strong forum
#

its just awful

hardy snow
#

indeed it is sadge

strong forum
#

the dmg that goes into fervid from TR is nerfed by 60%

lusty grotto
#

inspiring presence gone, so they're just casually making our "utility" pointless

strong forum
#

it just needs to ignore roar or do 100%

#

otherwise its just terribad

lusty grotto
#

they will end up buffing auras again

#

I normally don't judge people in the gym but if you're the type of dude to loudly slam the weight up and down with a single plate and 25 on the leg press you're a bitch

warm plinth
#

Darkness got nerfed by 25% as well

lusty grotto
#

yeah but thats pretty much the only thing we brought to the table outside of very niche intervene charges

#

and bshout

daring marlin
#

delete darkness

warm plinth
#

Though it got a nice buff in dungeons at least

#

30% instead of 20

its still whack

#

AMZ is shit to begin with

#

that doesnt need nerfing

#

only works on magic and only hits 8 targets

#

its a CD you just stack ontop of other shit

#

but its just not reliable

daring marlin
#

Darkness on mother was sorta funny in early uldir

#

👀

strong forum
#

Darkness is good when you have loads of dmg events

lucid holly
#

The ST dps loss is sad buttt, the DR for keys is now pretty huge so yay m+ at least

strong forum
#

darkness is shit vs singular hits

warm plinth
#

Yeah

daring marlin
#

fax

lucid holly
#

I read those changes like, ooooo prot war for keys?

warm plinth
#

We've never really had an issue with DR in keys though, outside of the mechanics that every tank except BDK struggles with

lucid holly
#

Esp with the massive rage gen nerf to bears

daring marlin
#

oh snap a bunch of changes today?

warm plinth
#

I do think that blood frenzy change probably kills bear meta

daring marlin
#

I gotta catch up

warm plinth
#

especially on top of the tier going away which is basically another 15% loss

lucid holly
#

Yeah, I wouldn’t wanna be doing half the pulls we currently do now as bear with those changes

#

We’d just fold over trying the FH ledge pull, some of the giga BH pulls or ulda pulls

#

Even though our set got buffed it feels incredibly bad to have it capped at 5

strong forum
#

bear is still king inside incarn

#

doesnt matter that bloodfrenzy is capped to 5

#

outside of it however yeah

#

bear isnt infinity immortal on big pulls anymore

daring marlin
#

Holy shit bdk 2pc is potentially not dogass?

hardy snow
daring marlin
#

You're drunk

strong forum

was always good but it suffered from the dumbass "need to actively tank to have an effect" affix

#

which plagued BDK in SL

daring marlin

Bone shield interactions are always ass

basing sets on Boneshield stack loss is just awful

I'm not saying they're gonna be massive or anything

But there are changes coming

lusty grotto

i mean no class has come out of a rework being bad

at least since DF started

warm plinth
#

True but

#

Realz said that it won't be a true rework

#

So we probably won't see anything crazy

inland raft
#

Arenr they going to make sigils a core focus going forward or is that just a rumor

lusty grotto
#

i see

warm plinth
#

They did say something about sigil changes for VDH but it was very vague

lusty grotto
#

probably just talent shifts, like Havok just got

sick sentinel

crafted some bracers for rogue in guild

Are there any quick Prot guide websites? Tanknotes seems dated - looking to try tanking wondering if there's any quick guides on routes/mechanics for low keys/normal raids?

sick sentinel

well, sometimes if you dont commit to a though pattern

it ceases to exist for minutes or hours or days on end,

or never again

so sometimes better to send it
