I grew up around kids smoking weed and doing drugs
And uh
Yeah nah fam
I grew up as the oldest of 5. I never had time for party
Always found kids my age fucking stupid for doing so
Dam daddy rooach
Still think it's stupid
I mean the bar scene with alcohol and ❄️ and 💊 is scuffed
That’s a dangerous lifestyle
I tried that when i moved out
Idk if I could quit weed been on it nearly every day for 8 years now
Broke my foot
And took czech pain drugs with alc
Killed my liver so hard i havent drank since
Yeah I mean drinking feels awful to me
Bruh
That's just a bruh from me
Havent tried weed or drugs in general but i bet some them are still "better" for you than alc
Idk weed helps me focus and eat
Maybe a cope but hasn’t contributed to any noticeable health issues
How about... Just none
Wild concept for many
Which is baffling to me
Dont need to tell me. I have never tried drugs and i havent drank in 12 years
My dirty habit is soda
My poison of choice is energy drinks
Yea I just switched to coffee only
Im getting insane blood pressure from those
I don't get any change, it's just a habit at this point
Also energy drinks are a little expensive
Ye im paying 2,30€ for one
Yeee
Thats what? 3 Dollares?
Everything is expensive now.
But if its more than 1 per day, and I've not eaten/drank water, I get jittery
Depends on the brand i guess
$0.95/oz
I don't wanna make it myself though.
Coffee makers are pretty cheap
Just get a mocha pot it’s easy
Mine was 10 bucks
Not sure but I know by the dent I’ve made in my bin of coffee that I will get more than 22 brews (the bin was $22)
Sounds aight
Just like 2 heaping spoons
Yeah it’s tight
It’s really really strong
Works all day for me
Caffeine doesn't work on me
Caffeine is a drug btw
ik
Mr str8 edge
prolly asked before, but what are everyones thoughts on Prot in raid so far?
Low dam?
Low dam
The who in the what
They add to the awake feeling past just the caffeine
Look up nootropics energy drinks
That’s why they juice you up more than a regular cup of coffee
Energy drinks don't make me any more awake, it's just copium
No they have stuff in it specifically to do that
Not like a conspiracy, is real science
Yeah sure maybe for others
But for my state of being, it's at best copium
Doesn't add anything it's just a taste thing
does wrecking throw work on incorp or is it only shattering?
U got eat good and drink big water, can’t rip your energy drink without water and food
Only shattering
that's such fucking bullshit
Roger ill yolo
Roger Roger
i dunno, echo still kinda half yolo in pugs
Did you not time the key?
Then why you putting the man on blast if you timed it
Thats not how this works
If you get boosted you get blasted. TIme or not timed
If youre 440 and do 60k while i pull 4 packs at once whole dungeon you get made fun of
Simple
ez beacon from timewalking chest
for nimchippy
luckiest druid in the world
sorry forgot to flex white werebear again
welp i guess getting djaruun and beacon on the same week means im never getting evoker leggo
seems like a fair trade
i also got the ring-bound hourglass recipe on monday which, for some fucking reason, is worth like 800k on my server
so i should def play mega millions
You already rolled out all of your luck
You should have played lotto before wow this week
Mail me the gold and you'll have all your luck back
nimchipadin also got beacon first

is there any point crafting a lariat now that i am fully gemslotted
changing embellishment is such a pain
difference is minor right
I've seen that thing yoyo from 1.1mil down to 300k within a month
supply and demand
Play bear its free title
man can i just please be allowed to give these out at this point
i've gotten 3 anvils in the past week
I tried a bunch of dungeons yesterday and I've been treating last stand more as a way to generate shield block rather than a cooldown and it's helped a lot. I've taken into the fray now and no longer have uptime issues. Thanks!
I do wonder what to do with all that rage I'm getting. I seem to run out of gcds to spend it all lol
👍
pwarr is pretty high cpm so u gotta be ready to dump that rage
👍
for story purpose
It’s so they have the time to forge your heritage armour set while you go around doing quests
Is last boss of BH supposed to feel totally fucked on prot? I feel like i've just got impending to try and get myself out of the absorb
Rezans trinket on PTR reworked
Now applies a bleed
pretty sure it'll work with our 4 set
no it won't
it should most likely require specific bleeds
the 4 set says bleeds in general not specific ones
the only category is your bleeds
as long as rezan counts as our own bleed it should work
Read into the 2p.
"Rend/TR/DW consumed".
4p is "each bleed consumed".
UNless they did some spaghetti coding, Rezan's won't be affecting it.
im about to farm the shitty version
and test it
they reworked all 3 version of the trinket
NO SNITCHES if this shit works
Go get em' tiger.
wtf
why did they do that
🤷
my haste proc 😭
Je, it used to be amazing.
BC THEY HAVENT MADE MYTHIC + TESTING AVAILABLE THIS WEEK FOR SOME REASON
Can't you just buy the trinket?
just tested it, does not consume Rezan's fury bleed
Shocker.
you can buy a rezans from the trinket vendor to make it easier to test this
it doesnt work with the tier bonus
So I'm guessing that the rotation goes ShSlam > TClap > Revenge in PTR play?
Nothing changes in the rotation pretty much.je.
If the IP trigger for 2p remains the same, then you might want to min-max TR->IP->Fervid proc->SS
Actually, wait, it's 100% now. Forgot.

cant wait to rip off of my cotank with fervid bite procs 
Hi fellow best tank class player choosers ever (regardless of anything anyone claims on statistics) - I recently leveled a new tank alt on a server and around 30-40 i thunderclap + shieldslam started to get really repetetive, so I made a #showtooltip /castsequence Shield Slam, ThunderClam macro and it works kind of semi ok to reduce the number of buttons I have to press for basic 5man dungeon tanking. My macro misses sometimes the procs of shield slam, sometimes it doesn't. Anyone know of a good alternative for the macro? Any other way to reduce the amount of buttons needed to spam all the time to maybe 1-3 instead of like 4-6 when tanking basic content and leveling up?
you really dont want to have those two buttons macroed together in any way as they have quite different functions
Offbeat idea, try a console controller
at the simplest you will need to press at least 5 buttons pretty frequently
SS/TC you definitely want to separate, don't get into bad habbits, it will bite you once you hit max lvl.
I'm just using it to get past crap content fast.
Shield Slam / Thunder Clap / Revenge / Shield Block.
Those are what you're main abilities are while leveling, no?
Pretty much yeah. Plus shield block last stand talented every now and then.
To keep the healers going easy breazy.
Naa, i wouldn't macro anything of those. 👀
Tbh it works OK, it's shit, but it's bearable. I'm just tired of all the buttons 😄
Prot isn't for you then. 😂
It does sometimes even pick up the odd shield slam proc.
We get even more once you gain access to all talents.
Well you ain't the one that decides that 😄
sadly we dont have a real way to slow down our rotation
it's a high apm spammy spec
Yeah I know, the cognitive complexity of WoW (especially if you wanna play good instead of average) is rather big.
Jeah, definitely.
Just that we gain more and more active abilities and it's really spammy.
Yeah, I miss being a BM hunter half afk top 3 dps.
Thanks for this info, I was wondering if anyone solved this.
I don't know if you have access to IP already, but you can replace your IP with:
/cast Ignore Pain
/cast Shield Slam
Wait, you do.
IP is first talent.
Smh.
Brain plz.
Sorry for the aggro Mwahi, it's just I'm old and got kids so I don't like twitch gameplay, I like chill things. So any way I can make it easier, I try to.
But I don't wanna go Blood DK easy though, that's just a cop out.
The macro i posted above will snipe Shield Slam resets when pressing IP.
IP is off the gcd, so it won't influence it.
That could work yeah, hmm. Have to try it. Thanks 🙂
I wonder how gimped a mostly passive talent tree build would be. You know - minimalizing the button smashery and maximising play comfort instead of performance.
That diesnt replace you ss bind
It's comfy. It's playable. But it's 100% not optimal.
And depending on the content you are aiming to do, will gimp you significantly.
I guess talent trees to each content, rather than one tree to rule them all.
if you havent picked the talent already i would strongly recommend taking this (i think it will be in the starter build too) it doesnt really slow the rotation down but it does take an entire ability out of the rotation
most likely you will have taken it as the game really paths you into it
Yeah I've that talented, but thanks for the tip. I'm checking out some cool builds from raider.io also for what people are using vs current raid content. That's my end goal, just getting back on board after a long break after shadowlands. Never played DF - the dragon cosplay wasn't my thing.
Just trying to make leveling less of a pain with some macroes while at work 😄 But I guess there is no way around it. Warrior is high apm like a korean e-sporter on cocaine in SC2.
Take the builds from the pin here (not the 10.2 ones).
Yeah the pin also had that shield slam ignore pain macro.
rtfm or read the f'n pins would have been great here for me I guess 😄 Man I used to be all into 'read the manuals and rules first' action later, but now as I'm older - it's more the other way around 😄
Thanks for the patience and assists though, tells me of a welcoming community.
That's what we're here for. 
Well, that and a lot of arguing with people throwing around weird feelycrafting i suppose.
Haven't we all.
Yeah, fun is important. After all this is a game for 12yos - says so on the box.

Are they gonna reduce the amount of buttons the game's got again or are they gonna keep increasing buttons? 😄
There's that outback slang again, so hard to decipher. Good on ya mate for knowning how to speak the down underish.
I always knew the australian wildlife was out to get you, insects and birds (cassowary) and all. But damn even the flora? Like the Gympie Gympie? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dendrocnide_moroides
Remember to turn on some Acca Dacca while ya barbie in ya budgy smugglers - cos we here in finland have no goddamn sun whatsoever anymore, it's all rain and darkness from here on our until maybe march or april 😐
I miss grabbing my wand after I ran out of mana on my dress wearing toon. No need for wands anymore I guess..
new worlds gun is good
im only lv 15 but im upgrading mostly gun in that game
i am not crazy about thier shield abilities
yogi yearns for a true gun class in WoW
The gun class in GW2 always put me off from that game, is the only reason I stayed in WoW because there wasn't any pistol gameplay.
what class yogi? gun
i just kjnda 2ish that in the esrly game you get hints of a horror game and at max raid its a full on horror setting, only if your paying attention kinda thing
some kind teeth and edge and im gunna get you shit
theres all kinds of horrifc shit happenjng live forced sacrifices or somethjng, well, of course you aant to go stop who3vers doing that
everyone lives and has a tea party and shares feelings is just not gripping
Llarold sometimes feels like his takes are a little cooked
At least some of the things he’s said about brew previously
I don’t know enough about prot to comment
Try brewmaster
They are extremely cooked
Also I have a hilarious story related to Llarold that happened recently
YEAH?
I don't like monks in rpgs 😦 otherwise cool.
Hated D&D monks - I've always been a sword and board / basic magic wizard gandalfy type of guy.
I can DM if you’re curious
It’s not so much a story as just a very funny thing that happened
Why not share here? 😮

shit fuckin happens lmao
ppl get mad
cycle repeats endlessly
i have a thinkies about "let him cook" is cuz, it takes time for meal to cook and be ready, and if you cook it too long it just gets burnt
Nah I don’t think so I’m pretty sure it’s a breaking bad reference
@waxen frigate Do i use Chi Wave on CD? Spell seems useless to me. Basically no dmg or am i missing smth
You use it to ranged pull or if you’re forced into range by a mechanic
Like I press it when rashok leaps away if it’s far
Thats what im doing. Do i still use it in "close combat"?
Almost never
Aight. Thanks
It’s last resort bottom prio free filler
this is my NW weapons so far at lvl 15
the fps, im not sure, it doesnt appear to be reading it right, or there is some issue with pc, who the hell knows.
this man has lvl 1 blunderbuss and expecs us to believe hes a doom fan
ya well im lvl 15
i dont evne know if i can get blunder bus lvl 15
the climnbing anywhere anything in this game feels really good
yogi posts everything but WOW here
#protection-and-yogi
Let him cook
yeah well, i mean i love pwar but others is best friends too
We fucking love yogi
+20 sounds too much painful for my puny brain
heroic mythic raid
fuck it, dont want to do them lmao
challenge racing is bullshit
bad thing about challenge mode is that its only in Dragon Isles races, not for Kalimdor or Easter Kingdoms 
well i post here cuz my only character with more than 100 hrs is pwar
so like
its not like im not going to play on him
just... its .... put shield block up, don't tunr back to enemy, kick, reflect,
ah, we win
I mean all tanks are pretty simple
as opposed to what rly lol
Its all pretty much variations of that
Use defensives and stay alive
Tell that to all the mythic raid tanks that lose threat who get complained about in here
That just shows they are shit compared to their cotank
Couple button dps rotation and press defensives, mechanically tanks are the simplest role
Yeah but they’re also expected to not make mistakes in high end content
DDs make mistakes all day
Theres also only 2 tanks
And like a million dps
And the gravity of a tank fucking up a mechanic is often worse

Stopped raid tanking long ago and then gsve up raiding altogether because couldnt be assed to play wow that regularly
Now just do keys with friends when they want and thats extent of my wow life
Tanks also see the same mechanics every pull
A Dps might not see a mechanic even after 100 pulls
Just due to rng
This might be a stupid question but I've seen a lot of talk on YT about permanent augment runes, is that like an extra consumable I'll need to buy? The item tooltip (on ptr) says it lasts an hour but the item is called permanent?
Permanent = not consumed upon use
Oh that makes a lot of sense, thank you!
"Playing turtle" doesn't make sense, because for all tanks doing more damage helps you be tankier
They're just bad players
Bad tanks just get away with more because it's very easy for a cotank and a team of healers to carry a bad tank, whereas a bad dps or healer is much more visible
PuG tanks do at least 50k DPS, ya better slap your mates into shape
Yep, you get kicked if you point it out 
How dare you be toxic and not want to boost ppl for free
in total fairness tank mechanics are the biggest fucking joke in wow
for like 80% of fights in a given raid, if your tank is the reason for a wipe and you're past like pull 10, he needs a talking to.
100%
there’s 2 types of fights
Tank fights and non-tank fights
Usually there’s like 1 or 2 per tier
That are tank fights
yeah the rest are taunt on stacks
This tier it’s Zskarn and Sark
And sark is only a one tank fight
It’s just whoever does the transition
Zskarn is both though, all about the movement and positioni mg
Last tier brood was the tank fight
And somewhat kurog
yeah
also true
Same as Sark but easier
rare gilf selfie
And even Sark now that I’ve done it quite a few times is pretty simple
But I prob took a dozen tries to get it down
Once it was down though it was down
smh days off are for losers. left worka t 10pm yesterday -> leg day
You know what’s weird to me btw
P3 of both Rasz and sark have felt like the easiest parts
Although I didn’t fully prog sark
Because they are
It’s just weird
Have to get through the hard parts
Like you wipe a shitload early on
They just front loading prog
And then it’s like oh it just falls over?
Like I literally have never had a p3 Rasz wipe
Noone likes spending 6:45 mins on a boss just to wipe 300 times to the hard bit
In 4 kills and 300+ pulls
Well 2nd intermission on Rasz was a bit spicy
It makes progress far longer if the hard parts at the end
But yeah p1 and the second shield iirc were the hard parts
Especially on a long ass fight like Rasz vs a 7min like Sark
We also had a period early in prog where we struggled to beat the second ice add cast on the left in i1
I dunno the guild i was in at the time kinda destoryed p2 intermission tbh
Quick question : I currently have 22% crit and 23% vers
I've read that overall both stats are somewhat equal, but specifically for keys around +27 and above, should I try to prioritize more crit or more vers? I know crit helps more with melee damage in big packs, but I feel like vers could help surviving non blockable damage which is what pwarr can struggle with.
Well if you stop mpre damage with crit for instances your IP will do more against the non blockable damage
I would say your energy would be better spent looking at logs and vods for gameplay mistakes
Also that
Ye tbf, thinking about it this way I’m glad that they’re frontloading the hard mechanics
Yeah I would do that but it's the end of the season and I can't be bothered to spend time look at logs for now 😅
I just play keys from time to time and I was wondering if I should craft my 447 ring with haste vers or haste crit basically
That seems interesting, could you explain to me how it works and what you mean by stopping mpre damage with crit?
It doesn’t make enough difference to think too hard about it
% of damage dealt adds to your ignore pain. More crits = higher damage = more value added to ignore pain
Parried melee do 0 damage so they don't steal ip absorb from non parry-able sources of damage.
That too
Ie: stuff verse reduces
Non haste secondaries are such a wash it's hardly worth discussing tbh.
Also vers is over 10% more costly to get 1%
180 crit = 1% crit
205 vers = 1% vers
But as stated before, doesn't make a huge difference
In fairness most stats would be good if they were boosted by like 50%
Blizz made vers alot more costly specifically to avoid bfa s4 again
And ontop of that they introduced the stat DR
Ooh I didn't know about vers being more costly, that's interesting
And yeah I forgot crit does more damage than vers so it's better for IP fueling
Thanks for all the answers and details about mechanics, even if it's not really a big gameplay difference I'm glad I now know more about how it works
It’s because you get the damage reduction “for free” otherwise
Yeah understandable
But the meme will endure for eternity
💯
Glad to hear you’re no longer having issues
how do i know you guys are real ppl and not ai computer machines
and that this chat isn't figment of imagination
we've all failed the turing test
Exposed 
Vers is the most cringe stat
It’s so fucking lame
Zero interesting interactions
It’s just a flat modifier zzz
Haste and crit have breakpoints and stuff like dodge/parry, gcd timers, etc to interact with
Mastery is… sometimes cool sometimes just vers
They could remove vers and mastery from 90% classes give the class a %aura and 99% of us wouldnt even notice
Itemiztation on point just as Diablo 4
Mastery shouldn’t be removed
They should just fix like
Most of them
So they aren’t super lame
Like BDK mastery, brew mastery, pog
Other tank masteries… not pog
(Although I wish brew’s had a better offensive component)
Remember when we had resilience so we didn't have to give a fuck about having pvp stats in our pve gear 
Mastery as an idea is really cool but their execution of it is fucking lame.
why not just get rid of versa and put versa into mastery, put some replacement
Because putting vers into mastery just means mastery will end up even more lame because it'll have more value than any other stat.
Or require like 600 rating for 1% or some bullshit
Speaking of Nimchip
still not sure why when during a time where warriors have the least utility of any class, we get nerfed heavily to our rally, zero compensation for the nerf, just straight up weaker than we have ever been in the utility department. Where is the outrage? Where is the prot warrior community speaking out about this? For shame
Probably because rallying cry is kinda lame anyway tbh lol
Yeah but we got nothing in return for this 50% nerf
Meanwhile we still cant even deal with certain affixes
The fotm rerollers are all elsewhere, veteran warriors are used to senseless nerfs, also doesn't impact our personal survival or damage so, whatever
I am very unsettled by this revelation
Pretty sure blizz doesnt want me on brew. Ive now done 2 full HC runs. 2 full dawn Myth runs, 3 weekly event HC caches and im still 423
Yay more things to continue making dwarf brokenly strong over any other race
🙂
I am not OK with it
Me neither. Might just take the week off and delete the monk

Haha racials don’t matter 🙂 unless you like m+ 🙂 then you’re trolling by not playing dwarf 🙂
25€ race change makes bobby drop another reins of the super yacht
Idk why people are so bothered by not being able to deal with the affixes tbh
Just means I get to turn my brain off on those weeks 🤷
TRRRRRRUUUEEEEEEE
Just means everyone else gets to decline you to their groups
But also same
It's a team environment fam
Like we're so far behind in the utility bucket that making our 1 trick less of a trick isn't going to really change anything
I mean as a tank though? Tanks rarely do them anyway.
“Oh nooo haha incorp week? Guess you guys gotta deal with that”
True
Got taken into 17 yesterday with my shitty tank just because i can para incorp kek
Feelsgood having utility after being DK/Warr main for 20 years
Lazy fuckin dps
But what am i saying. Death grip best utility according to blizz devs
grip owns
It's not nothing

duh dk owns
AMZ isnt utility
Its rp cheat for breath 
But I get apbs point, warriors have had more utility taken away over the years than the other classes
Make stormbolt crit for 5 mil again on bosses
Problem solved
No warr will ever complain again
Yeah I mean this nerf is harsh too, imo its a hard nerf
I'd rather have gag order back
I just wish we got some compensation.. perhaps let us get rid of bleeds again or something
Betting they think it heals because new devs can't be fucked to play the classes
New devs all play lock. Thats why they get reworked every 5 months
Shadowpriest
That too
Most reworked spec of all time
Yup, longer back than that
I’ve only been playing for 3 years
Should probably just remove the skill trees and give us all the legion speccs back
Every other patch since cata
So didn’t want to make assumptions
Random question to the ptr gamers
Are waycrest manner Doors still random?
they all open
based take
So you can Just Take the best thats very nice
Fuck that I'm going double witch hunter plague hallway
I never played the Dungeon but was horrified thinking about learning 4 different routes
The horror is going to be fort weeks
Wcm at +10 was like hitting a brick wall on fort weeks
Gonna be next seasons uld
anyone know if the bleed in throne of tides is rough or what
It's dwarf able so no fucks given
I am not dwarf anymore i switched off
I cant play any race where my thunderfury goes through the ground
Sounds like a problem you can fix for 30$
i have race changes available but i just cant do it
But yes, that bleed fuckd
damn
ok this is the compensation we should get:
Bitter Immunity can clear bleeds again
what you think of that
No
Bring back original inspiring presence
we have gotten nothing since df launch
I mean seems interesting but prob wont happen
For sure won't
warrior needs to a rework
Well 14-16% dr is really nice for the bleeds
Sure we have, they buffed defensive stance
We got a bunch of damage buffs this season
They should make rally not be temporary hp after this nerf. what you think of that
that is a nice compromise
that seems fair
Like its weaker but doesnt drop off its a heal
How would that work
When the buff fades you lose the value it increased your hp by
Last stand doesn't
Oh ok thats weird
So what apb means is make it raid last stand
I think its fine overall a Lot of those externals got nerfed
yeah but we got a heavy nerf with zero compensation
Blizz just wants These Things to be less strong
That was after they nerfed us below bdk
why is this appropriate to nerf the class that brings some of the least utility
it was a blanket nerf across all raid survivability CDs, it's fine
its not though? some classes hit hard by this
Shhh let him have his soapbox
it doesn't affect our desirability in raids at all, people will still want the same number of rallies
let em cook

I am not just complaining though, I am bringing up real issues in the prot warrior community
Is it?
The real issue is that other tanks exist
tru

only 1 real and true tank
Yeah, it is, when one of our main utility abilities is nerfed harshly when we already bring so little its not great situation
we bring a whole other buff to the raid
My reaction to the RC nerf was "oh that's all?
Dont tell him about shout
Because it has basically zero impact
Yeah but wheres the compensation
i dont
wheres the compensation for dh for instance?
there isnt one
their cd got nerfed too
Just remove all buttons from the game so it’s equal
1 button
Only Auto attacks
Have you met my lord and Savior EverQuest?
but last i checked it was a nerf
I swear I read darkness is now stronger going into 10.2
Just strange, other classes get nerfed and they stand up when it is unjust.. either way, I guess I will table it for now, I have spoken my piece
Nooooo
in raids, darkness is now 15% chance to avoid instead of 20%
Yah heavy nerf to one of our core utility abilities that we already have few of

Is it different in parties or something, fair enough about raids I guess I misread it
like 30% in a party or some crap
OH GREAT now you've done it.... grabs popcorn and sets back
It never ends
They want healing utilities to be less impactful so that healers have to spend more time healing
It’s fine
Bit of a high level mechanics question— does the game still remember your last known orientation and position while you're mid-jump?
Like, used to be you could jump directly through an enemy's hitbox and mouseturn before landing, and you'd be able to turn that enemy quickly without ever exposing your back. That still a thing?
how do yall hold sark in the phases?
some ppl prefer to pull to middle in p3
some at edge
idrk
Our tanks go to edge
No, server updates are handled at a much faster pace now
You'll eat a punch to the back of you try that
Gotcha. So, no more picking up extra packs with a jump-mouseturn-heroic throw-mouseturn back maneuver anymore, either. Thanks!
I mean you only need them in your front 180
Just strafe key and pick up mobs
yeye
☝️
Ok I see your point and I agree rally is too strong for raids, but why is darkness getting a 100% increase for parties? Rally should get similar treatment, where it is stronger in party content (this has been mentioned and asked for before by me and others)
Wish they'd make heroic throw line if effect like moonfire
that would be sweet
I’d rather press SS than rally so just remove rally in 5 man content instead
Yeah but you realize warriors already have trouble getting into groups?
That is not because of rally
its because we are seeen as not bring much utility
Haven't noticed
yeah but it certainly doesnt help us either now that its weaker
lmao, it's never ever been about utility
Tank meta in keys has never been about utility as far as I can remember
Comps are about utility, pugs are about "meta or not"
Right part of what makes certain dps specs meta is the utility they bring, I agree for tanks its not usually the case utility is the reason
Tank meta is always what compliments the other 4 the best and or highest damage. Depends what the wall is in bleeding edge keys
☝️
I guess I am just curious why it is appropriate to make our class worse just to make it so healers apparently have to do their job more? Meanwhile vdh is getting 30% darkness in parties while still bringing more utility than us as it is
going to make a forum post
Rally is a hp boost to survive a large chunk of damage. It’s essentially useless in keys
thats not true though
because game design isn't about cosmic justice, it's about making the right changes to achieve the goals for the game
rally has saved me and my group many times tbh
So worrying about it’s value compared to darkness is pointless
its strange that people shit on rally so much also, it is a strong piece of utility
No it isn’t
for raids, group survival CDs were very powerful and making it more difficult to design healer checks properly. ergo, they reduced the power of all of them for raid
it is
in keys it has helped my groups
now it will be even weaker
that is why we should get treated like darkness where its 100% more effective in party content
You would have to scale a key to a level where a ability would onshot the entire group without rally active
You probably don’t need to worry about it
I will go and make a forum post and I invite you all to join me in this endeavor to make prot warrior stronger
All tanks have things they are great at and not as good at as others. Become the best you can become at what warriors excell at and try to not focus so much on what others can do that you can't
Grass is greener scenario is frequently a thing and tends to blind people's perception
The duration of rally is also irrelevant in keys. Because a large chunk of ticking damage is covered by a healer cd and you won’t ever reach a key level where rally would make you survive two ticks without a heal in between anyway
based brew
Realistic
Rally in keys 
Rally in keys is no laughing matter
Apb cooking
if you arent using it, it is bad
Sure press the button
If your healer plays properly you don’t need it
When I played my Warrior in keys I did. It's pretty underwhelming in keys.
I rarely ever press it like...it's a buffer for big hits of damage that hit the entire group
And that's not really a thing in M+
Yes it’s a buffer or “safety net”, good way to put it
a party wide defensive which is very rare is continuously shit on its weird
It’s not needed at all
You will never be brought as a warrior because you bring rally
Idk, I mean you're entitled to your opinion ofc, but I think you care more about this than RC deserves XD
its just weird a core piece of our utility is continously shit on
by warriors too no less
If it was a core piece of our utility then you would think we'd care more
right so just remove it from your bars
^
just take it off your bars
ghash is printing Ws today
holy moly
It's not out of the ordinary just this many in a short period
You're gonna make me blush
a party wide defensive is very rare in wow its just strange you guys dont value it that much
excuse me sir have you filed those Ws with the irs
It's not a defensive though. Like if it was DR then sure
and its gone on for a long time
But it's a max health buff with a temporary health gain
it is a defensive
muh utility has never been core for prot warrior anyway
You don't even keep the HP it gives you
SPEAR
spear for chargy jumpy mobs
whether prot warrior is good or not is whether they deep dick other tank dps
yeah but for years rally has been shit on, now it is about to be the weakest its ever been since vanilla and everyone just tells me to stfu apparently
That's it
Who told you to stfu?
I think the amount of time wasted discussing RC, that time could be spent elsewhere, maybe trying to become so good at other aspects of the warrior that..... the 1 in a trillion chance people cared about your RC use they would ignore it due to other things you do extremely well. But that is my opinion
alright aob
earlier people saying just let apb ramble, what he is saying doesnt matter, ignore his opinion basically
post a log
of wat
Yet weirdos prefer banner or AA
wanna c how much RC use u got
banner banner banner
😵
I mean, we disagree with you and you obviously aren't going to have your mind changed. So engaging doesn't make a lot of sense.
did somebody say BANNER
it goes both ways
god breath owns tho
That is why communication is good and not trying to censor others is bad
so as ghash said theres no point in engaging
why not
ur so cringe im literally imploding
u dont like 30% movespeed always YIKEs
the conversation is not just for me and you guys
facts
well i dont know how the conversation is going to help anyone
theres nothing constructive in the conversation itself
its not like blizz makes changes based on whats said in here
Not true, I was discussing possible compensation for a heavy nerf we are about to incur.
and bliz isnt in this channel or discord
so how are the compensations going to get to them
u will have more luck posting on the forums
I do forum posts and speaking with my peers for support and getting ideas
i do post in forums
I just made a comment in the ptr forums like 10 min ago
great youve done your job then, we dont see it as an issue so your not going to get any suggestions out of here
which i thought u would have noticed like 5 mins in
but okay
Ok maybe not from you and other certain individuals but the discussion is out there for the lurkers and others to form their opinions at least
but u didnt even mention u posted on the forums in the first place
so how would they know it was on the forums?
that is true I didnt mention it
it was just a comment about the rallying situation in a topic
I mean I dont mention everytime i comment in a forum
You seem like you're having an episode


C:
🤔

these things i cannot deny
based
thanks for the support ^^

More importantly lets bring back heroic strike 🤡
actually true
im down for cleave
Also, I believe Thyme won fat bear week so let's congratulate his mastery stacking victory for our rage bros
True
But revenge isn't 360
nither is cleave
Make whirlwind actually useful
No
Spintowinprot
Fury execute
and that
Give us titans grip w shields
Dualwield shield spec
The true memedream a dual shield wielding cannonball warrior
Shield slam strikes twice
Dual shield
miss typed had to correct
Had a d&d character that used 2 shields and armor spikes
polearm + shield
the new legendary should of been a polearm with str or agi on it that switches depending on spec
the amount of bitching I have read about it already is plenty for me thanks
I mean legendary shield when
^^^^this
having a single tank be able to use the legendary will go down as another big L for wow and df in particular
legendary force reactive disc
Inb4 shaman leggo shield
Big W for warriors tbh
To rub it in our faces
have we seen the legendary yet?
nope
how is it a win for prot warr though
Because we have 2 specs who can use it
yeah thats true
Off topic i want to buy a new knee… im so bored at the gym today doing auper light weights cuz had reconstructive surgery and still hurts too much to do anything real
That nevers stops people from bitching about who will not be able to use a legendary or get it... luckily I always bring a healthy supply of idgaf with me
oof
that's some shit
What'd you do!?!?
Superhero landing
lol
nah I just think they had an opportunity to let 3 tanks use it if it was a polearm and they missed it heavily. Even with the 2h from the jailer guardians used that shit. This version no chance anyone but a single tank can use it. its just bad business for the tank scene in general
Well 12 years afo it got blown up and irs been an issue since but finally just completely gave out while running back in april
At least this time they did surgery so hopefully eventually will be good
yeesh
Exploding knee not fun
Mines shit but hasn't given out yet, yay 3 years hs football
Get a bionic super knee then you can become a super hero
Im told i ran on it with my kneecap off to the side and down the leg a bit back then i dont remember much of it
Worst I have is a bum shoulder from an 80s snowmobile nearly crushing me 13 years ago which was sick
Should have been fixed then but it was the army
we don't really know yet how much the legendary will do for BDKs specifically, decent chance it doesn't do enough to make them meta
lol
It'll all come down to tuning of course
I should not joke though I know the pain, my old job had me tear the muscles that wrap around my left shoulder put me out of work for a month
even with gavel it took an insane tier set to make them the only tank
its just wild how they didnt go polearm.. literally the druid patch too lmao. what a miss
Nah back in 2011 i was begging them to take the leg off lol, only person who ever beat me in the 2 mile had bionic legs
But all they did was push knee back in place took as much metal out they could and stitched it up and put me on toc detail for 2 months
Why would fyrakk use a druid weapon
Are you me? I shredded my shoulder loading water pumps onto a truck when someone put a 4" pump with the 3" pumps, was tossing them up one armed but there a 75lb difference between the sizes, so my body turned but my shoulder stayed where it was
guardian/feral have quasi leggo this tier, resto/balance have quadi leggo next tier
they easily could of made it some crazy badass fire polearm. there are zero instances we have even seen him with a 2h axe lmao
Druids have customizable boomkin forms, trust me, they're not worried about the lego
my point is its just a miss from a tank perspective to give a single tank a legendary
massive L
so then why would a polearm make more sense
polearm that switches str or agi based on class
clearly the intention is to throw a bone to the plate melee
This, bdk just a lucky bystander
Clearly it's because Chris Metzen plays a ret paladin
ret uses polearm
oh
Yeah the shoulder injury is still a bitch even after a few months of light duty and continual movement therapy it still pops like a bitch and can't lay on it without it going numb
lol yeah damn
Paladins can use polearms
Mine still pops but I don't get that yikes
i guess if it was a polearm it would just be too many specs that can use it i guess
Took 10 years for mine to heal fully
Did it heal completely or did you just become accustomed to new normal?
dead hangs and other mobility stuff keep me goin tbh
I have full range of motion without tension or pain
shoulder and knee injuries are the worst ever
Facts
Pretty sure it took 10 years because I kept working out an irritating it
It "technically healed", it pops a lot if I rotate it which is well alot because working and not using your shoulder is rough but the numbness is if I lay on that shoulder too long
Ya taking it easy is the solution its why even though i hate it im doing super light workouts mostly to just stretch the knee
Even though as a long time gym goer i know nobody looks but it feels bad benching 3x what can squat lol
it is motivation killing having poop lifts because of an injury
I take muscle relaxers regularly for it so I got used to it
My oh press is as much as my squat now but gotta take it slow
Also bulged a disc is my lower back so that's fun, but again muscles relaxers help, and makes laying on it not hurt so much
Upper body more fun anyway
I HATE taking too many different pills for things so I try and let it go
Ya i hate meds
But i do wish could have taken oxy after surgery. Im immune to opiates something genetic idk im no scientist so they dont do anything for me dont help with pain and dont get me high
It sucked
Mainly I have full use of it, like I said it just pops a lot if I rotate it and if I lay on it too much it starts hurting bad and can go numb on that side, but muscle relaxers help when it hurts bad enough that I say okay I need to take something.
I mainly am just careful to not reinjure it to the point that I go back to needing pain killers or to be out of work
I have not needed therapy for it in quite a few months so I feel I have a good routine to keep it from becoming a recurring injury
Popping could indicate scar tissue build up or arthritis
Could be as simple as just needing minor operation yo scrape it out
yeah true trying to avoid that if I can
more time out of work and all that entails
have a bad knee also but I learned how to deal with that, it does not need surgery, just a lot of jobs that were punishing to the knees in the past. So until it becomes a issue I ignore it
Plus I dont go to the doctor unless I have to
Doc was straight up about it too said from get go its by far worse joint to have surgery on
Didnt help that mine was a mess girst surgeon declined to do the surgery and had to refer me to some 35 year specialist because said was too complex
Yeah my mother had knee replacement surgery I saw what that was like, and was like yeah I will ride it out for now. Was a lot of therapy before she could walk normal again
Plus all I went through with my shoulder.... talk about a return to a unpleasant experience if I were to have my knee worked on
But id imagine preemptive would be better then after it gives out on its own since often the bones and such get damaged on top of just the surgery itself
But ya i get the hesitation. Im only 32 but my bodys been through hell, been shot, blown up, years of abuse to the body in general from work, etc and the knee is by far has been the worse
Yeah that is true and it is food for thought for sure. On the fence about whether I will wait to have it corrected until it is required or fix it before it gets that far. Its up in the air
Mainly I have just worked really hard in my life time already and my body has payed for it.
I am one of those push myself to the breaking point kind of people and I have always had jobs that required a lot of physical strain on the body. The money has been great, but I payed no attention to the cost down the road. Ah well live and learn I guess.
What game is that image from ?
Can picture it now, dual wielding shields, you come flying in and slam into the ground, do a bunch of AoE damage and then double shield slam. The enemy just disintegrates.
lmao
awesome LOL
ok never played dark souls not gonna lie, may have to give it a try now
The most recent pic is Elden Ring
Was never interested in it, that just sparked my interest if only to dual wield shields
