This is op
It's okay tbh
Only feels bad because you know just how much you're missing
outside of avatar waiting for thunderclap cooldown suk ass
yeah thats true i guess
how do we convince our guilds to let us take the legendary axe even though we're tanks
Use big words
ok I accept it: I have to at least try to learn arms so I have a dps spec
how do i do
fury is more fast paced like prot I feel
I used to main Arms, but currently in DF it has huge issues of the "Blizz don't know what made this spec fun in the past so currently it feels really bad" kind.
To the point that if I have to DPS nowadays I use Fury.
How is everyone else tracking thier set bonus? This is what I've come up with
I made a weakaura that tracks proces, but in absolute honesty it barely changes my playstyle and I could probably delete it without causing any problems.
Salted caramel banana icing pancakes @undone sun
does fury require using annhilator now
Yes
once you get 4p
dude im a heroic fyrakk and the dps dk doesnt have grippy hands talent LOL wat is going on in this world
this trinket worth anything?
That does look good, ngl.
It's worth in gold.
Nice, Liquid tank is gonna get the axe
i thought driney got it
isnt he an hpal
im not that big of a fanboy
oh they just mentioned it
oh, Riku maybe got it for offspec
I actually really like that axe, got it on my warrior, but haven't taken my paladin into the raid
i havent gotten lucky
anything fancy for Tyr in Murazonds Rise in tyrannical? or we just gettin man handled?
unholy? What?
tyr really isnt the boss you gotta worry about in Rise
Like frost DKs aren't even going DW this tier are they?
ive no idea lol
but double shield wall
Manhandled by who?
thank you!
Tyr's buster eatin 1 mil each time
you can spell block it
just spell block it
you dont need double wall
wtf
spell block it
and if spell block is not up use wall + SR
not hard
Oh, the first boss?
that boss is giga easy
What does even damage there?
only boss that hurts in that instance is deios, thats it... well battlefield can fuck you up if they get stacks anyway
And dStance+SR+IP should cover it easily.
not spell blockable
weird, it does no damage to me anyway
What key level?
but mwahi has logs so yeah
21
Jeah, no.
1 mil, with or without sb
Just look at the image i posted.
That was a 22.
It did 876k when i had only IP up.
dStance + SR + IP
And you take like 300k damage on a 21.
Got logs for days.
i stand corrected but yeah it barely hurts
right on, i'll take another swing at that. thank you
Jeah, if nothing else, just swap to dStance for that specific smack - already 20% DR.
have fun with deios
Okay, unironically..Deos wasn't as scary.
as tyr?
Yes.
did you do the leap tech?
Once, just to test it.
Ya, don't always have room and/or your DPS'ers are standing in somewhere wonky.
Mwahi out here with healers with double digit IQs flexin' on us
That's healing done to me on Deios by source.
I'm (kinda) sure that Evoker bugs rdruid a bit in logs tho.
That's on Tyr.
That's lowkey all i'm getting.
Cause he hates me.

Okay nvm, Mwahi just flexing on us in general 
Everytime someone compliments me in a dungeon, I'm just like "Wait until you see someone who's actually good"
Same.
We tried ToT first corridor pull on a 25 yesterday. Needless to say, did not go well.
damn mwahi healers making mine look like they have room temperature IQs
And then there's @patent osprey who probably did the same pull on a 26 and survived to tell the tale.
Ya, he has the mentality of actually letting the hots do the work.
We do need to remind him constantly "This boss deals damage, please heal", because he just sits in cat form.
problem with leaping breath
is that your dps immediately get agro on adds portalling
and youre on the other side of azeroth
so you have to go hard on adds as they get initially summoned
then leap, and mash taunt as youre getting close
I use ravager for first leap, not sure if that works yet though
ofc
but if he says nope and goes the opposite way, thats the issue
Just AOE taunt after the breath
I always leap that breath into charge aoe taunt before they reach their portals
can always heroic throw them as well
no u cant cc them
yea
well, the problem is mostly their one auto attack after pop
taunt works too
not the spell casting
well, I mean, they die faster from the aa !
Plus (I think, more tested required) you kinda control where the add goes
As far as I've been able to check out, add pops close to the closest portal, which are in the corner of the room
Second add pop in the closest one (unless you move the boss on the other side maybe? not sure there's a reason for that)
do you mean the summoners
i feel like deios just summons them where hes facing
as far as i can remember they are always on my face
Yes, but the place they go is just the closest
That's the important part, isn't it ?
ok but what do you mean the closest
The first two seem to run to the side you're closer to
that
So if you're on the right half of the room they spawn portals to the right
They're not gonna run to the opposite side
You can always put down a ravager and then leap out of breath towards the room entrance
so for example if youre closest to (im not in game so making it up) the right side, they run to the right side, and you have to leap to the left to avoid breath
If you're really worried about the two guys spawning
y
Add pops right before breath
so youre potentially as far as you possibly can be to the portal and where they start turreting
so you can ravager to avoid a melee getting aa leap & charge back
so thats what i meant as the biggest issue with leaping breath
because as far as gap closers go, you just used your leap, so you only have charge
Is there a point to using rend as a prot warrior? Is it not the same bleed thats applied by deepwounds?
no point
thanks
Yeah, gotta figure out how to abuse it properly now
xD
Teach your DPS to do giga damage so the fight lasts 30 seconds
That would make it a lot easier to live
Hey! Could someone help me understand which type of damage Intervene is Blocking? Yesterday I did a 20 BRH and we were struggeling to kill the swarm quickly. Is there anyway to determine which attack is transfered to me? Other example would be the knive dance or archer frontal in BRH as well
Intervene will only redirect direct melee hits
or abilties that are direct melee hits
How do I know what is a melee attack? This seems to be a stupdi question but i cant wrap my head around it. For example the Swarm in BRH (last Boss) is a Enemy Unit in Melee range with no cast bar -> melee attack?
The knife dance is not a direct hit to a target but AoE so it doesnt get redirected. Same with archer volley. The 'shoot' the archer does a direct attack
but its ticking damage
not melees
u can actually block knife dance
it just depends on the ability
and stuff
theres no clear rule just depends how its coded
Wait you can? nice tought it didn't
apprently
didnt know till i just checked it
i mean
knife dance shouldnt go off anyway
the mob should just be stopped
True, i tend to pug alot so this is not the case at all times π
but u have 3 stops yourself
this expansion yes
Not shit - situational.
Do you have a use case in current m+?
pretty sure it could be use on sick bats in brh
it could
I didn't find anything yet in this season
I usually shockwave one out of two, that could be the second time
Ahahaha.
No.
Never.
I don't want to
Haha
Ok i would like to throw in another question about definitions. Do Frontals (magic Damage) count as Spells?
same issue as intervene, some do, some don't
Ffs i hate this...
I remember being able to reflect the second boss of the raid hall of valor
They need to attach tags on the dungeon journal
But not many others
Good thin trash week is coming time to do some testing on weaker tank busters π
what kind of dps should prot warr be able to burst for 15-30s on a 5 target cleave? I feel like I could be way higher than 150-200k at 460 gs
I think my sustained is a little more than 200k so bursting should exceed that by quite a bit
does anyone have a pov of a everbloom +20 this week?
Am i missing something obvious other than opening with demo shout avatar ravager, then roar and prior TC > SS?
can't find anything on youtube
We all do. That's the big issue with warriors.
Abilities which look like they should be blockable ..sometimes are not. Others' which seem not to be blockable..are.
u never prio TC over SS
Wonky crap.
even in like 5-8 target cleave? prio SS?
With outburst, SS outdamage TC even in aoe unless it's massive aoe, so putting TC over SS costs you both rage and damage. On top of that, almost every pull has some kind of prio mob that should be focused down first anyway, so it's important to funnel damage into that mob. You would only ever prio TC over SS if you're in some giga pulls with Bloodsurge, so you get more rage over all, but with both of the relevant tier sets, T30 and T31, that's still not what you do because SS has benefits for AOE on both of them
(T30 making SS after shield slam give aoe damage, T31 making it so when shield slam consumes bleeds, TC comes off CD, so the general button sequence ends up as SS - TC - SS -TC a lot of times)
if im lacking haste, is into the frey better than heavy rep?
No.
No.
ok.
other way around
got it
To elaborate, ITF gains value as you get more haste, since it gives you flat percent instead of messing with rating or DR or anything like that
lost 1k haste from switching out my ring 

Imagine having haste as not your lowest stat
ok that makes sense
i only have 2.3k haste

Crit gang rising
I always wonder, but if I donβt have SS available at a time, should I spam revenge or even wait for auto attack to reset ss or in this situation tc is better for outburst ?
I personally wait for ~1 global and just send TC if no reset.
Not really, but I did it a few times.
Any particular issues ?
just wondering, am i always supposed to bring a priest for md?
bursting + tyrannical makes this dungeon hell
the pack sizes for bursting is ass in that dg
Nah, just control the dps
like i got a 20 key myself but i've been trying 16-18s for practice
The higher the key, the less an issue bursting becomes though
and joining those groups 1-2 people die almost every 2nd pack with the flower petals
if they don't stop dps, that's their fault, not yours.
Timer is not that tight though, so you can pull slower if they missbehave.
also how do you do second boss?
swap between left and right
or just focus one side?
one boss does big aoe burst
Ideally, lust and kill right side
Only tank switch if it's a bit tight
for heal kick
ppl usually just blast right
and do u use a defensive everytime the middle guy charges?
it deals a ton of dmg for me
yeah
Yes
so i always need shield wall/spell block
- defensive stance
also tell ur dps to move out during the charge as well
to not clutter up around the bos
^
On a 20, you can also get away with SR+full IP+ dstance.
That was on a 23, look at the 800k hit, i had nothing outside of dstance and ip.
i can try
altho if i were to get an 800k that'd leave me on 200-300k assuming i had full ip lul
been waiting for priests for a while now so packs go smoother
Yep.
But that was a 23.
So on a 20, it should be chiller.
this was an 18
caps are dumb
nope they are good puts everyone on the same playing field
thats some commie propaganda
if you dont like caps on crests, just dont play for first month of season, come back after 4 week and you will have plenty of crests to collect 
https://clips.twitch.tv/GiftedOnerousCardMrDestructoid-NY2VTOl6efoOpA2d
Unless it has been fixed
I have been playing lethal company instead of pushing keys, so I don't know
Well it worked out, been tanking it fine but unfortunately ranged dpses kept dying 3rd boss and wiped one last time at the last boss before it could be timed
so people left
It still works
unlucky i guess
Could be bug abuse though
thanks for the clip tho
Is that doable with both bosses alive too?
Not sure if anything would change
You really have to go into that corner for it to work
sometimes he runs around the tree too
It's not a los
It's a bugged spot
I forgot to test it, but I'm pretty sure it also works if you have him in los
Is 2x shadow flame patch bis embellishment for m+ too?
Yes.
This is so unreliable for me. Maybe I'm just an idiot but, it only works 1/3.
Are you going to the corner between the tree & the root ?
worked this morning
I'm going to the exact same spot the Druid is in that video. Ultimately, I gave up on it.
Playing the boss correctly isn't too bad. DPS still learning that you need to rotate bosses. When you're not getting hit by free casts from boss the charge isn't too bad.
idk then Β―_(γ)_/Β―
Same man, same. Haha
Gonna try and stream some protection if anyone wanna give some live feedback.
https://youtu.be/T81RQa9WR1Y
(bait thumbnail no idea what key levels beyond +17 or higher)
100% its not for you to learn I am shit its for you to yell at me to use demo shout
Was not really for promotion more vod review but live
but I see what you mean sorry
Wtb titan grip for prot warrior
Wtb polearm + shield
bruhhhhhhhh THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE OUR EVOKER TANK!
although I wouldnt mind it for pwar either
Just give me titans grip gladiator stance
that does sound sick
Yeah, we have
dual weild tank
staf tank
animal tank
We have 2h tank
We have sword and board tank
We have sword and board tank
Would be cool to like differentiate from prot palasin
And get some mlre class idebtity
Might even increase popularity of learning with minimal redesign
They just get chonky weapons and shield
They might have to rework devastator tho
nah it's fine
we could have a 2H and a shield, slight mix with fury
Make melee reset SS everytime. Done
Yeah that would be cool, but I'm thinking about the future
Not one legendary that's +7k DPS single target
So I think I finally realize that people follow βtier listsβ way to much. Prot war is incredibly tanky and has some great survivability. I can easily survive stuff in war that my equivalently geared prot pally would just die to minus cheesing stuff with final stand
Prot Warrior is the least played tank.
It could be #2 tank
And be lowest tier.
People just don't like it.
If pwar is #1 everyone plays it
If it's #2-6 it's least played
I guess
I don't guess, it's measurable.
With like basic 50% dr on two set itβs just so sturdy
Guess I donβt understand wear people come up with these βrankingβ
Rankings*
The other issue with tier lists is that sometimes
they're just wrong and based on hype
I like seeing population and highest keys
Well at least it doesnβt have the consecrate mechanic. Entanglement is easy but itβs annoying every time it pops right after consecrate and I have to move
Prot Warrior is doing the highest keys too. Least popular
Skill issue
Freedom yourself
Mechanic goes away
monk is more accurately unarmed tank
our weapons are entirely cosmetic, always sheathed
Alcoholic
Unless transmognto brew artifact
still sheathed last i checked
Sure I can do that but the fact that the tank is designed around being mostly stationary with all this movement is just bad design
And has some special animations
Tier lists are also biased to whatever streamer is playing whatever tank they like best.
Prot paladin is probably #2 tank rn
in naowhs, dorkis and andys tank chat the main metric when "ranking" the tank was utility. pwar cant compete with dh and prot paladin ability to solo the stops in any given pull. when warrior truly outshines is when sr is nuddy, like s1 nokhud. all 3 did mention and agree when it comes to pure sturdyness warrior is rly fkn good but end of the day that isnt the most important factor
Even on sanguine you don't have to move that much
Nothing can complete with vdh stops
Or Prot paladin utility
I am not talking about #2 you can be second and still have shit design philosophy
Paladin is just annoying with this seasons tier. There's a lot of fights that you can't stop moving on so empowered consecration is useless. Lol.
point exactly, so if you wanna give the tanks a rating id go vdh #1 and the rest shared #2. like nobody is pushing world first keys you just go with whatever tank you have access to
Yeah requires different tech
It was fine till everything was baked into consecrate. The tier set is annoying and not fun
Hallelujer
Pala is fun, war is a rush on peaks , always engaging. war is nice
depends on your personality tbh
We won't see what tank is meta for another month
It would be okay if you could turn consecration into an aura instead of an on ground effect.
Aesthetically and thematically I love P Paladin a little more than warrior
Rn vdh has a million stops.
Paladins have a lot of buttons.
But when everyone is 489 and cooking the comps and pushing those keys
We'll find out then
People coping thinking bdk will be meta because of an axe that doesn't address any of bdks m+ issues
there is always arms pumping anyhow haha ...or fury
All tanks are good
One or two tank might be better
But we need ilvl and new comps
RN it's lottery every tank can push the same level of.content
I like the minigame of stay in the yellow circle on prot pal
I'm also love prot warrior
Idk what I'll be playing in 2024
Paladin has significantly less button bloat than brew at least.
im not arguing that meta wont change. maybe vdh turns out to be emperors new clothes when the 25 ppl in the world start pushing 30+ keys. but before season was out vdh offered 12s blanket silence. its hard cope to argue anything but that would be "initial" fotm (or meta)
Vdh will be nerfed
Paladin might become #1
Vdh is a safe pick rn, it brings so much shit to the table.
I'd like to see BrM become #1 it's so cool.
New divine toll animation might be lit though
They also haven't done another tuning pass yet so vdh could get the nerf bat. I mean look at the tiny change bear got that decimated it from king last season lol
so again, if i (random shitter) had to rate all the tanks id just put vdh #1 and the rest on a shared #2 spot. all tanks are sturdy enough that you can play them. only lfg kids think you need vdh for your 22 run
If they tie challenging/disrupting shout into anger management warrior would be lit as fuck
BRM is already #1
In my heart
I mean, imagine pushing a nerf that addresses an issue with a tier set being op, and then the new tier being absolutely shit (and still bugged so it doesn't work)
hey... which craftet item/embellishment should i best go for? Cloak or bracers?
Those have the lowest stat impact so it's the recommended rout, but really only matters if you're going to get 489 mythic track stuff everywhere else
will not happen...
Because for some reason they decided they hate crafters again so fully upgraded gear is weaker from crafts
So you could do some stronger slots, as the crafted gear is easier to upgrade to heroic ilvl
Like boots/belt
Or shield
If you won't be killing the first boss in mythic
Just craft cape/wrist, then you won't regret vault drops 
That too
Thank goodness for the vault though, I've literally lost every roll in both raids and m+ since the season started
Like I love gold in my chests
Seriously
(I got the 1h from fyrak because no one else rolled on it)
Right, where's our tank bonus for doing dungeons
Literally have to run heroics for the bonus bag
Get gold there
Love those, always mid run or on the last boss
I revel in the panicked screams of the casual Andy's as I pull boss to boss
So interesting question, if I get a ruby whelp shell from m0 , will it remember the training from season 1?
no

you had to retrain different versions in s1, so
Not that I'd seriously use it....
When the +2 people Iβm carrying tell me to slow down cause Iβm pulling wall to wall and theyβre dying
Ran a 21 DHT last night. Any tips on the tree boss? I SWd the first grip, then LS the second, and the third I exploded. Anything more I can do or is it just on the healer at that point?
Lmao same, already have the shield, fyrakk axe and ursine trinket cuz tanks keep blowing their dkp
urine triket!
Context? 
Leap out of all breaths, you'll have more ignore pain and continue alternating CDs
- def stance + reflect on all of them
You can run the double shield wall talent if you donβt have a defensive for the third one. Itβs not optimal as itβs less SW over the course of the dungeon, but if you donβt have any defensives for the third grip then it could work. Make sure you are in dstance as well, and thereβs actually a tech that if you leap backward before nightmare breath he wonβt follow you. Heβll still move side to side so care for dps when you leap. This will prevent the dot right before crushing grip which is a lot of the danger since it eats through ignore pain and puts you low for the grip
tips on last boss Rise? the breath just deals so much dmg
Leap
and hope dps move xD?
Leap away
Just leap away from the dps
Directly away
so have him against a wall with his back so dps can stand there and i can leap?
DPS shouldnt stack in front of boss anyway, so just leap in the direction the Boss is facing, should solve it
True story
hha perfect
Pika war actually has a great video on it on his stream from two days ago. He turns around about 2 seconds before breath and leaps away from the breath
I need to memo this, for when I do rise. One of those obvious things to do, that you forget
Wonder how long cobra skin going to be price gouged
Always
Have you tried to farm that?
It's idiotic how you get one
Itβs absurd bro
The worse thing is the centaur necklace thing. Before the patch 15g now 15k
Do we know the exact mats for axe
Whoever did ts this expansion fucking hates lw
Should be this, right?
can you link the clip?
I will have to do it later. I am at work now lol
π«
Following as well, I did a 15 and just got blasted by that dagron
You just leap max range in a direct line away from dragon
Didnβt know you can range the frontal
Pretty much that ^ turn around about 2 seconds before and start running away then leap
So you land and run beyond the breath
It's like 45-ish yards or something I think, so just to be safe, you want to run a bit after
but you just have breath start, you leap, you run
You should be able to get Shield Wall back in time for the third Grab, if a third grab happens. Personally I rely on Pain Suppression from my Static disc priest for the second, but if I were pugging I would run Immovable Object. Don't forget that DStance, Spell Reflect and Demo Shout should all be effective (the grab is Nature damage).
turn back around, charge back in

I know everyone is suggesting putting the shadowflame enchant on bracers/cloak, but i'm missing my battle rez engineering bracers for M+. What would be the best 3rd item to put it on to minimize stat loss? Maybe boots?
ty
Boots or Waist are the next lowest stat budget non-Tier slots
Hopefully when I finally get it on week 24 of the season the market for those mats will have tanked
Haaa
Real talk tho should we craft a helm eventually? Like our bis helm is haste mastery according to wowhead so why not just craft a helm with haste crit or crit verse depending on how much haste we have?
cool cool ty
You already know the bots are milking that stuff 
Hey guys, what weapon enchant should I be looking to us this tier?
I think Iβm using the shadow flame one currently (havenβt logged in this week yet due to the holiday in the US)
difference being that u can get a 489 helm and crafted only 486
Depends on the content you do. 489 vs 485
Fuck i was to slow
would u guys replace the vial with any DHT trinkets?
or should i just sim the dps one
not sure how good the tank one is
I would never have used vial in the first place
The haste one is prob better than vial
Sim dps and use whatever the robot says
didnt get another one yet
and played dps last season π
DPS also have OCE/Beacon/Anvil
The egg I believe that gives you like 280 haste every second or whatever that means sims higher than vial only beaten by beacon and anvil iirc
From last tier ofc
Itβs like meh compared to this seasons trinkets
Is 489 the final tier for myth track?
It isn't
maybe, I don't think there's a haste crit helm in the season, set yourself to near max gear and then sim the helmets
Yea
wat u guys think of this trinket
bad
damn @jagged pier don't gotta put him in the ground like that
let him be a bit happy he got a 470 trinket
hey im only following what ive seen our orange name do
but i mean equip so your half why to flightstoning to 470 trinkets
Or just sim
I just did the sim anyway, Incarnate Casque at 489 is highest DPS (by literally 200), crafted is second.
So there's a strong case for crafting a helmet if you want to.
guys can someone tell me where should i leap in oakheart boss
straight backward
my back or boss back
You back
for both oak and deios the frontal tracks, as soon as they start the cast, max range leap in a straight line away from the boss.
Boss back would spin him like a top
u mean i should be in middle of sky when he do it ?
shit cocnut beat me to it lol
I was doing the same thing
as soon as the cast starts max range leap
ok thx
if your friends are behind you on bosses with a huge front then leaping won't change anything
You won't have friends if they're standing in the frontal
fair
was probably more thinking of making sure you go back as straight as possible
as to not alter the breath slightly to the right of left
If you want to do that, keybind the camera flip button
lol I wouldn't go that far
just pay attention to the fight timers, spin your camera when the frontal is coming up, go ish-straight back
your friends should be nowhere near the frontal
i never figured out why , but last key i logged, the paladin gave me exactly 1 blessing of autumn before not giving me any more
i think they gave it to me in hopes i was a good player and would use it for dps
i also keep forgeting its not a ret ability and holy only
I guess he was let down
feels like something ret would have
he did it 3 times apparently, maybe it was some other log
can the shadowflame patch pull mobs that are not in combat?
You have to actually damage them to proc it.
my fellow prot warriors, i have a question. Running 15MDI with some S3 gear, not tier, and S2 tier available. should i got for 4 set S2, or just go pure Ilevel/Stam? i can link raidbot simc
yeah, i assume it doesnt pull non combat mobs
You only change old tier for new tier
hey guys, does spell block only reflect once per mob?
keep s2 4p until you have s3 2p, then play 2p/2p, only replace s2 2p when you have s3 4p.
And only when you make at least 2p bonus
Old tier is going to be worth like 25+ ilev, and you can easily get 450 4pc so there's no real reason not to use it until you have the new stuff.
its in Tournament realm, so im only able to use what is available
it only reflects once in general, unless you manage to hit multiple spells on the same server tick
π¦
which usually takes gaming mobs with CC to line up the cast at the same time
If you refer to spell block it will work for 30 sec blocking magic damage
What it sctually blocks is available at the spreadsheet
oh true, did you mean spell block or spell reflect?
spell block will block spells for the full duration, there's nothing per mob.
Spell block blocks
reflect only reflects once in it's duration, but you retain the magic dr for the full duration regardless of where the reflect happens in it
Spell reflect reflects
you think i should just use 4pc S2 set then, if we're only doing M+15s across the board?
right guys, thanks for clearing up the confusion, now I understand
anyone know what is means when a dude keeps calling you 'clark' throughout a key lmao
i dont know this reference
you're superman
Generally, 2p2p will do you better in M+ due to the extra ilvl and prio dam, but it feels like I missed half the convo
π€·ββοΈ
for the tournament realm I dunno
I found an urban dict post saying it means being bad at everything
why do 15s on the tournament realm at all?
"(v.) Performing badly at almost everything; sports, video games, career, affairs of the heart etc. Person who exemplifies these traits."
lol sounds about right
this MDI is 15s and how fast you can do them, and its against another team, so we do veto, pick a dungeon with specific affixes and race against them
gear wise, its S2 set pieces, and or 470 non set pieces
You'll probably get more damage out of 4p, then.
π
simc says yes, more dps with 4 piece, i just wasnt sure if i wanted more dps or survivability
15's is low low for mdi
a group of rats could probably time a 15
ngl disc priest so good in rise.. pain suppression so good for final boss
Tbh for 15s there's probably a bunch of dungeons you just drop the healer
disc is always fun, its a specialized class like protection warrior
And if you aren't allowed, just bring a resto druid to dos
yes, discussing that too. dos?
mm hunter in key is like pwar
Protpal, bm, outlaw, DH, x
its like.. uhhh it will do... but it has som limitations
Dps
ah
Yeh especially if you're judicious about timing last standing so you have 4p buff during large pulls, it'll definitely blast way harder than some extra ilvl will.
MM just isn't really built for keys
or for raiding, or for pvp
its not built for crap it seems
lol
I normally play frost or fire mage, I tried arcane last night and with poor play and 2pc from last season I was blasting with least thought process in low keys
Wich tank does the most damage in m plus?
Is arcane that easy now or was it always that easy?
besides that its mana inttensive i still have no idea how the spam AE arcane mage build for keys isnt a thing
blood/ppala/vdh are all similarly high up there
they 2 charges instead of 1 if you hit X targets, which would be easy in keys
so warrior is not even top 3?
for overall m+ damage? no
The one with dream render 
i always figured that was the REAL build for keys, you spam AE, and blasts and then you struggle not to spend all your mana before combat ends but enough to nuke the boss
arguably ST/Funnel is more valuable then just raw aoe
cuz, mages still have frost nova and iceblock and a bunch of purge or dispell crap
free water for healer
funnel off tier?
im too dumb to play a mage but i enjoy playing one if i can do the big numbers
more targets = more rage = more IP = more fervid st damage
aha you mean 4 set
nah 2p is the cause of the funnel, for the most part
Team, I tried my first 20EB last night, got completely rekt on council fight. Dulhu was farming me. What's the play for prot warriors? Pool rage and spam IP for the charge?
not really complaining but im still amazed that seeing red at 6 stacks is bugged that if you hit IP on 6 stacks, it immediately skips 7, and goes through to 8 and grants you VO,
4p improves our aoe a lot through more tclap/thunderous roar
been this way since 9.0
consuming as much rend/deep wounds as possible is what causes all our extra ST, though
consuming thunderous doesn't actually make us do any more single target
I had erased that from my memory, thanks yogi
is bloodborne talent bugged with rend? putting 2 points into it seems to not change the tooltip damage
what would you guys recommend crafting first? shield or wep maybe?
rend does the same bleed damage with 2 points in bloodborne as without it
at least thats what the tooltip says for me
if the craft options are shield vs wep, then shield always. Granted, I crafted my embellishment pieces since they wont change
and theres a nice shield off first boss
my shield is already embelished from last tier so I guess I'll upgrade that, thanks
IDK but you knew more than us


Make warrior prot 2h viable
we're getting ilvl scammed
Because he is not in prot spec
why dont enh shamans take wf totem in m+ am i missing something here
its probably a dps loss
depends on the comp
like surely a single talent point can be found to get it
generally it's not worth unless it has 3 targets
i see
that's the drop, the post quest version is 500
the actually usable weapon
right, so the one that doesn't kill you, is stronger π
Whats up with every dps standing behind tank in DHT runs
Skipped the first 3 weeks just to come back and see dps are even more braindead than last season
nothing tilts me more then seeing dps/healers running around aimlessly in Yazmas room
Ive seen some wild stuff
I had a tank pull the boss into the adds on yazma cause he was to dumb to press shift+j and read 1 sentence
I pugged Atal with two friends and the two other dps died halfway through the fight
we couldve brez both... but it was decided the fight was easier with less people
Around 3 minutes for 26%, both timed 20s ive done i ended up soloing 26%, or 40%, took around 6 minutes for the 40%
Both time the party was soy crying saying I was throwing
Idk why people are so smol brain on yazma
it was like that in BFA
The boss doesnβt do enough tank damage witch Iβm okay with
Bosses are wildly inconsistent this season
do we have full details about the giga axe
also the charge on duku or whatever in Everbloom
cuz it was just a black background + red ? icon
TLDR;
Costs about 1.5m to craft it currently.
βGg might loot it next week if Iβm luckyβ
I mean, long run, not that much
Yeah Iβm not sweating it at all because surely Iβll loot it late and prices will have tanked

honestly, in a week or two, prices will probably normalize once people realize that they may not get it to drop this week
I'm manifesting you getting it next kill, brother.

idk who liquid gave their's to.... but I bet the best person to get the first one is the one whose willing to speed run the crafting quests XD
I've been looking at prot for an alt, who has the best guides?
i cant wait until some worthy bdk gets it and shows its actually busted
they obviously dont need the lego to finish the raid XD
Augusto gonna get it
give that shit to dorki
big bdk succ enjoyorrrr
on his dk
both bdks got them
scot's bdk
Is shield block active?
Y: Shield Slam
N: shield Block
Press all other buttons as much as possible
or paladins
cause it gives them all a charge
you know the meme
for extra movement
but warrior needs movement cough cough

Warrior needs the leggo
but its bdk or dk in general gets that new axe
no adventurer needs it
also it needs half the handle length
warrior needs it or else they cant get into a high key pug 
its gunna be funny in m+ content on whoever has it
whenever the good bdk gets it
and brings it to keys or pvp or some shit, maybe thtas warrior for pvp, possible paladin
paladin seal of command used to big bonk, proably still a bit like that
5 legendary axe key
im pretty sure there is a way to do it, 4 at the minimum
like, u might be able to do 2 rets as "healers", 1 bdk 1 dps dk, 1 warior dps
Sorry whats this new axe?
There is a legendary one handed axe?
no it's a 2-hander
2 h
but wars can use it
π
.
It'll probably start dropping as personal loot starting next reset
Na just needed 1 Mythic Fyrakk kill
Sorta like Evoker leggo from last tier
To unlock the drops for everyone
Oh ah
Cool
Oj thats actually fucking cool
Yeah that's going to go well with 3rets a UH and now a bdk (because our brm swapped to be a twaddle)
Loot spec locked on arms
just steal that shit from the working class DPS just trying to eke out a living
i already have rageheart, it'd be worth; augury or drama
Gholash is the only thing I'd be missing out on
which is a shame, but
sacrifices must be made
I just want it so in prepatch when we get colossus warrior and can use 2h + shield
but it'll be two seasons behind, then
They didn't update the Evoker leggo ilvl, did they?
well, just a season behind
Season 4 will be fated, both the nazuro and fyralath will almost certainly be obtainable at relevant ilvl.
Redo and recraft

Also need the personal loot to drop again
Have to wait for WF Fated boss to be killed
no bad luck protection, either
im already mentally prepared for our Hpal or Prot War to get it first
anyone know if you have to be in fury/arms loot spec to get it, or does it just drop for available classes?
do i have to stand in melee of timeways or they melee the group
i died but not to that
its dead somehow
fragments are the little sand balls
almost certainly
k col
but that boss has a comically huge hit box
like you gotta run out of the arena to leave melee range, effectively
cant charge final boss omegaluil
and on final
is it the small circle near the normal dps cirle, i have to soak it always? thats what group says
yeh
group in the chromie circle, tank in the smaller soak circle closer to boss
you have to step forward after each knock back to stay inside
Whats the best way to handle the small spiders in black rook hold? I swear my groups can't kill them fast enough
aggro them and immediately kite
Big dam 
getting dispelled early is also a day ruiner
asking the healer to wait on first dispell
priest pugs be giving me a headache this week
they need to un-nerf timeways i think
unless its got it samcks the party when im not in melee crap
give it back the cone attack
timeways might not be hard for tanks but it's a nightmare for dps and healers
2nd and 3rd boss both shit on pugs
it can be left as it is
not really, light and dark and then avoid the obvious
when you screw up the ring to be slow it can sometimes be unfair because thicc hit box
at your key level you might not have problems but on 20+ that boss is rough
true, but theres not much going on that fight at all right now
Even if you do it right and dispel both in fast it's a fuckton of damage on top of other rot and dot damage
It very quickly gets unhealable unless you're doing defensives correctly
im not sure exactly but isnt it dps want to always be in the light anyways which makes the dispels easy
i like that there are a few large hps/healer check bosses
i think the dark is only a dr
you can tell who is a good healer
similarly last boss on rise for tank cd management
That fight is a hard hps/defensive check.
3rd boss they need to nerf the damage on transfering the debuff.
That shit hits dps for like 500k, there's more than enough damage to manage as is.
im mostly worried about final boss
we did it on an 8 to 11 or something, and then we wiped back to back on that boss
after like, i said its easy oh you know type thing
The only way to wipe in iridkron is to fail simple don't stand in the fire checks.
tyrannical bosses at 8 vs 20+ may as well be different games
well, i understand how that fight works now for the most part
bringing my casual friends into higher keys and they realize they dont actually know the fights like they thought they did
no
but on the bright side, I was vibing the entire time
I ended up soloing timeways and effectively solo DPS rushing Blight after the rest of the party died, taking corruption with them on P3
and then iridkron was
somethin'
How do you guys deal with Galakrond's first boss tankbuster?
just def stance + shout and help healer with impending victory?
I usually just impending victory cause the healing absorb is only like 300k
yeh it does pure physical damage so it shouldn't hit you for much damage.
the healing debuff happens irrespective of how much damage you take from the hit, just immediately victory rush it
and it only happens like once every 45s or so, it's very infrequent and shouldn't be a problem
Last stand will eat the healing debuff as well
and you live with just that?
i mean my warrior's currently 420 doing 10-14s but i take a massive beating
I generally have to think about actually getting use out of my defensives in that fight
It's far from the scariest thing in keys atm
Going to try and tank 3 +18 falls tonight
Genuine question on tyrannical do you pull both the dragons before ooze or nah?
That'll probably kill your group
Every ooze that dies near a dragon increases their damage for the next bit of time
since the stacks are an enrage effect
I'm in need of some advice, what is the best way to handle "Temporal Breath". I'm rotating Spell block, Shield Wall and Demo Shout, but the dot is killing me. Can I use Spell reflect?
Yeah, soothe will make it manageable for a healer
Since normally you take pretty negligible damage there
holy cow bears are more popular then prot wars what gives? O_O
so adding yourself as a concern marker, plus double pulsing, can lead to dead groups
Doable, but I wouldn't do it in a pug
lots of shamans (all) and more monk healers
i've been noticing, did they buff monk healer
you can use spell reflect on literally any magic damage, before we get into anything else
Even if it doesn't reflect, it reduces the incoming damage
But you can leap every other breath to outrange the breath, making you take half the amount of breaths
im not sure if the keys just giga baby easy but seemd like monk healer is stronger now
After that, you should be able to Shield Wall a good number, you can get spell reflect active for at least most of every breath,
Spell Block only blocks the initial hit, but also blocks the casts of adds
Tbf I've never tanked 17s before so this has been a shocking experience
Didn't know it was this hard to die as prot.
yeah no, tanks are very strong this xpac in general
It's only very easy to die as a tank if you're not playing very well at all
You can comfortably tank 20s at 440 ilvl
your party mates may be having worse of a time
Ya I had a blood dk hard solo +18 AD last boss at I'll 450
for the vast majority of the time im more worried about my mates dying than myself yeah
At like 40% but still
Hey guys, sorry I missed this answer if it was answered earlier. What sort of weapon enchant are people using?? I have the shadowflame one currently
sophic or wafting depending on whatever sims better
dk can MC the green goop dudes all dungeon long
once it releases, dont kill it, let dk re - mc
1 per dk
