Sweet bagels are better if you’re not eating a fresh high quality bagel

Hello my guild is doing mythic prog and our tanks are taking a lot of damage, our warrior especially is dying a lot sometimes randomly, if I dm'd some logs could someone help me find out why?

lusty tiger
#

I am mega busy for the next 5hr

mighty valley
#

Just put it in here and we can all take a look

tepid tendon
#

He is here somewhere and could flame me at any moment

toxic pewter
#

we are all here to better ourselves

mighty valley
#

Don't you want to learn and improve, mr tank, wherever you are?

tepid tendon
#

He gets mad at me when I bring stuff up, or tells us were wrong and I'm scared and don't know enough

#

but overall hes a real nice guy just not when it comes to criticism sadly

mighty valley
#

it'll be more convincing to see the entire discord agree on where he should work on rather than one person

tepid tendon
#

I'll delete them after a little bit

#

remove my trace

#

obviously they aren't the reason were not killing, but when a tank dies its an issue and I want to remove any issues

bleak breach
#

Too much revenge not enough ignore pain to start with

#

Zskarn hurts

tepid tendon
#

He said he uses battle stance a lot because he needs it otherwise he'll lose aggro

mighty valley
#

there's absolutely no way a dps should ever rip aggro from a tank regardless of stance

#

absolutely use dstance at high stacks

bleak breach
#

Cast per minute overall seem fairly low overall. Assuming not generating or using enough rage

hardy snow
#

I see both of your tanks have on zskarn quite big gaps when not taking boss after their debuff falls off, that makes it harder for other tank

bleak breach
#

His healing numbers are very low for Zskarn and mythic especially.

tepid tendon
#

Yeah we talked about that and I told them they need to swap at 9 at least

#

And yeah, I don't play tank but its not classic anymore I never see tanks lose aggro mid fight

hardy snow
mighty valley
#

just swap as soon as the previous stack falls off, no reason to stay at high stacks any longer than absolutely necessary

hardy snow
#

and remember to use all available AA slows

tepid tendon
#

yeah we have a lot of people not doing their shit, the warlock trial we had with us didn't want to keep curses up

mighty valley
#

on a trial???? be on your best behavior, my dude

fast knot
#

yeet that idiot

tepid tendon
#

In his words ''I'm finding it hard to play the fight and multi-task'' I said either curse the adds, curse the boss, or dps the adds

#

instead of none

bleak breach
#

Yeah they need to immediately taunt boss when debuff drops. His damage and healing seems low overall.

fast knot
#

It's an instant cast that lasts two minutes

mighty valley
#

do you have any logs of farm fights? i wanna see if this warrior has better cpm on fights where he's not stressed out

fast knot
#

I'd be fuming

tepid tendon
#

I'll take a look now

bleak breach
#

Basically needs higher uptime on ignore pain, one pull he had 43 casts of revenge vs 13 ignore pain casts..

tepid tendon
#

I was yeah

#

farm fights

bleak breach
#

@tepid tendon

#

Similar fight time for mythic Kazz

#

Mine on the right, his on the left.

tepid tendon
#

so less damage, and less IP casts

#

how?

bleak breach
#

My fight did go 20 secs longer, but 34 more SS 45 more IP

tepid tendon
#

Like I know next to nothing about tanking, but that doesn't make sense to me lol

bleak breach
#

I used last stand 5 times, him 2

#

He’s just not generating or using enough rage.

#

Also spell reflect is massive for these mythic fights, needs to be used more.

mighty valley
#

if we're correctly prioritizing rage gen, which is also prioritizing our biggest damage buttons, we also get more IP for free

bleak breach
#

^

#

Has to be just missing using shield slam, he’s got 25 more revenge casts then more and more TC

#

He’s using filler abilities over SS which is reducing rage gen and damage dealt

mighty valley
#

the kazzara log isn't as far off as the zskarn one but it's still a solid 14 lower cpm than sokraxx here

bleak breach
#

Yep, which is a lot.

mighty valley
#

so he's a bit suboptimal on a farm fight, and then clearly everything's just a bit worse on a prog fight

tepid tendon
#

Yeah, just gotta figure a way to phrase all of this lol

bleak breach
#

I’m not saying I’m perfect or anything, but it’s a quick comparison.

#

Simply needs to use more SS and ignore pain. It’s nice to burn revenge this much but he’s burning it over using shield slam. Literally nearly has more revenge casts then shield slam.

tepid tendon
#

Is SS just damage or?

#

or rage gen

hardy snow
#

its all

#

but from tanking perspective its rage gen

mighty valley
#

it's biggest damage and biggest rage gen

bleak breach
#

Also his single target build is wrong

mighty valley
#

highest priority over all except CDs

bleak breach
#

Looks like he’s in a M+ or aoe build

hardy snow
#

more rage means more healing from indomitable, more CD reduction from anger management, more free IPs from outburst, more pure IP or revenge from dumping rage

lusty tiger
#

And more shield walls!

mighty valley
#

it's not always super useful to hear "just play better" from your raid lead but i'd say using last stand on CD for tier set is a good start

#

and don't be weirdly afraid of using def stance for the highest damage parts of the fight, it's free dr%

#

and spell reflect too

tepid tendon
#

yeah I might just need to face the music and ping him to here at some stage

#

easier than pretending I know what I'm talking about

#

but like I said hes not a big issue, just one of the many issues in our prog

bleak breach
#

Definitely needs to change his talent build

tepid tendon
#

You got a link for one you'd use on Z'skarn?

bleak breach
#

That’s a start

#

His build is really off if you compare just to the base wowhead build

hardy snow
mighty valley
#

oh god barbaric training

tepid tendon
#

Yeah maybe, guess its preference, I just always use disc for learning lol

bleak breach
#

I run BT haha

#

Well until the other day

mighty valley
#

oh he doesn't have bolster with tier set

bleak breach
#

Simply needs to be better or find a new tank or you just won’t get further.

vestal moat
#

Also on the bstance thing, he loses about 7% damage being in dstance. By default, he generates 650% more threat than dps. There are reasons to be in bstance but getting enough aggro isn't one of them.

bleak breach
mighty valley
#

well it certainly solves the mystery of how he's casting IP so little

bleak breach
#

Yep

mighty valley
#

while also overprioing revenge

bleak breach
#

I think just the build change itself will make a huge difference.

lusty grotto
#

if your tanks arent switching correctly they will suffer

tepid tendon
#

Yeah I'll bring it up for sure

lusty grotto
#

if hes not using dstance after an x amount of stacks, then swap back after fade

#

like sure he can bstance for the first stacks no problem as long as he stance dances correctly after 5 stacks probably

#

do you guys have AA slows?

#

no rogue

#

no DK

#

just one warlock

tepid tendon
#

Sometimes, I specced it on UH DK and the raid before last our warlock did have uptime

lusty grotto
#

your warlock needs to be using curse of ex weakness

#

hes currently not

tepid tendon
#

Bigtime, been a big drama about it

lusty grotto
#

well does he want to kill the boss?

hardy snow
#

your warlock must have 100% uptime on curse of weakness on boss

#

thats his job to use his class properly

lusty grotto
#

yeah weakness, sorry

tepid tendon
#

Basically group of 3 joined, I asked Wlock twice to do it
He didn't, told him to do it, told his friends and they said they didn't know and will flame it for him

#

he has next raid and hes benched

hardy snow
#

its mythic, highest difficulty, if he doesnt want to use his class properly - he can go play easier difficulties

tepid tendon
#

Yeah, just the added worry of its a group of 3 or 4, 3 are good and then one dude doesn't do what he should

#

if we bench him we could lose 4

#

maybe not, but it is an issue

lusty grotto
#

if you can sub a DK in, and one that specs insidius chill... which is kind of a dps loss, then it will go a long way into stacks

hardy snow
tepid tendon
#

Yep yep, don't usually do it but we've ran through a lot of people on Z'skarn lol

lusty grotto
#

combo invites yeah

strong forum
#

so to summarize:

  • pick a diff talent build, the one youre playing is quite detrimental offensively and defensively
  • use less revenge, only use it as reset tool for shield slam, nothing else
  • use more IP, basically when youre at 60-80 rage send IP
  • send outburst on Shieldslam, NOT on thunderclap if you can avoid it
  • if youre not that well versed (by that i dont mean the secondary stat), just sit in D-stance on zskarn
  • have warlock/rogue/DK apply attackspeed slow, it is vital to reducing tank dmg intake MASSIVE amounts
bleak breach
#

Zskarn is a massive roadblock

#

Will really notice issues there

tepid tendon
#

Yeah, we are finally seeing the end I think, hopefully at least

lusty grotto
#

honestly im with Nome on this one

tepid tendon
#

but ideally we'd like this and magmorax down

bleak breach
#

Yeah, Nome has summed it up perfectly.

lusty grotto
#

and he should perma Dstance until he finds out your groups magic number for stance dancing

bleak breach
#

If you can get Zskarn you get Magmorax easy

tepid tendon
#

Yeah for sure, we're super chill as a guild but we're steadily getting chill players in the last couple tiers

#

Only missing some reasonable prog, finding it hard to get people in and staying in

bleak breach
#

Chill is fine, but things like completely wrong talent builds in mythic are just a no no

lusty grotto
#

its late in the season so

bleak breach
#

He should also know that himself though

lusty grotto
#

not surprising

tepid tendon
#

Yeah should be better when the new tier starts

#

but I feel like I say that most tiers

#

then the influx is never as good as I hope for

bleak breach
#

Yeah, it’s always hard to fill groups late in a tier.

strong forum
#

surely itll be better next time
clueless

tepid tendon
#

yeah 100%

#

major copium

toxic pewter
#

i am anti-chill

bleak breach
#

The big guilds normally steal them first and people stay on bench there hoping to get a free CE

#

Looks like yous are getting close anyway, so if you can fix a couple of issues you should get 7/9 this tier.

#

Which is a great effort.

vocal flame
#

This new patch including a new season for M+?

gentle light
#

upcoming 10.2? yep

vocal flame
#

Yeah 10.2. So the ilevel of all the gear will change again? Wondering if doing m+ now is worth it

cinder nova
#

It's worth it now to be geared enough for 10.2

#

So you can go right into it at higher keys and immediately start collecting ilvl cap

vocal flame
#

I gotcha. Thank you

pallid quiver
#

It's also very quick to gear

#

You can very casually hit 420 or so in about two hours, 430 in a day or so, and that's all without M+

#

With M+, you can probably hit 44x in like one, two days

lusty grotto
#

447s are gonna be LFR gear so i dont know about that S

#

that's max upgraded LFR gear, not right off the bat

cinder nova
#

LFR opening immediately??

lusty grotto
#

so if you think you can get to ilvl cap with LFR gear well all the power to you

cinder nova
#

Please say it aint so

#

I dont' wanna farm LFR from week 1 for tier

lusty grotto

doesnt matter we get like 3 set pieces on raid week

dont worry

pallid quiver
lusty grotto
strong forum
#

vers is better defensively in raid than crit

#

because you basically never get meleed

#

but raid dmg intake is generally not high enough

#

to need to stack vers

uneven mason

O right raid

hollow merlin
#

So?

uneven mason
#

Technically

pallid quiver

eventually the one mob will hit me again

pallid quiver
hollow merlin

I'm still confused what should I be stacking. Haste Verse? 40% haste? 20% mast/crit?

uneven mason
pallid quiver
#

Most damage is easily handled with CDs/Externals

lusty grotto
#

you should be stacking haste

strong forum
#

generally you just gear for dmg

lusty grotto
#

everything else parse it

lusty grotto
#

well ikarikaze has a better idea

strong forum
#

as defensively stats have very little relevance

#

so ye

#

rule of thumb is
ilvl > haste > crit>=vers > mastery

and beyond that, just sim

no specific amount of % you aim for

It’s legit distracting for me if my character has a bad mog

Haha

My mates always tell me transmog gives more dps

rich wyvern

Nahhhhhh - the real trick is that whenever I see someone rock up to a dungeon with no mog I know that they’re gonna be a pumper. They must have used all that extra time to git gud instead

I made a mog in BfA and have been using it ever since

How giving is prot for a fairly new player that’s new to tanking?

prot is easier than its ever been, but its still one of the harder tanks

Mechanically prot isn't bad

but htats also not saying much because all tanks are easy now

Prot is going to struggle in areas that other tanks don't. Some tanks will have more complex resource management but it's all just different flscours of ice cream

They all are still ice cream

Depending on your goals, any of the 6 tanks will take you near the top of gameplay

Ignore pain at 60-80 rage or when you need it for a mechanic

If you follow those steps

And actually press stuff on CD

solar grove

are we relying on outburst as our main way of getting ignore pain up

strong forum

No

#

You press ignore pain roughly 15 times per minute

And during your opener like 9 times in 12 seconds

median tulip
pallid quiver
#

you slap ignore pain a lot, in other words

prisma phoenix

Sounds like a cracked ability

solar grove

yeah im not pushing it quite enough on the opener i think

#

what is the deal with last stand? just on cooldown?

pallid quiver
#

Yeah, if you throw all CDs out, you need to be slamming it on its own CD, pretty much, because Ravager gives you a lot of rage to work with

#

Last Stand on CD atm; Offensive CD that gives shield block

median tulip
#

Your ideal situation is to never cap Rage, but instead to spend it on Ignore Pain in order to generate the proc effects from AM, Indom and VO

strong forum
#

This is how your casts breakdown should look like

Its CD is also reduced by pressing Shield Slam, so you get more out of it by sending it on CD

To be quite honest, there is a point where you have enough Shield Block and can spend on something else. Usually that point is "What If I just Execute it?"
