Hey everyone, I got a question about 2nd stats as a prot. I got 7165 haste atm. Is there any cap or value that we aim for and dont want to pass? Or just as much as we can get?

Aslong as you're not sacrifice ilvl

Since defensively they're all really close

sick sentinel
#

theres 3 mechanics, 4 if u counthe the firs witches mc and the paladin doesnt buble .... so he gets mc'd bubbles and kills someone

uneven mason
#

Who brings paladins?

stark crystal
sick sentinel
#

theres a mechanic u have to move some mount of yards from the rest of the team and the saame one right after or during does a ring around players that hurts other players

#

thats the biggest threat

uneven mason
#

Haste cap is Nimchip, the warrior without a prot spec

stark crystal

😂

sick sentinel
#

3rd is thorns and if dps is stupid and puts too much dps intoi her, they die

uneven mason
#

All I'm hearing Yogi is bring a MW

sick sentinel
#

whenever we did that in bfa on tyanical greivous

#

our group vaporized

doing that fight on those affixes on a relatively normal to high lvl key, is that

#

"randomly dc"

#

sick sentinel
#

thats the joke i just made

#

why is my mount invincbile, i can see it

silent vessel
cinder nova
#

Is this M prog?

#

Tell your raid leader to reign this fucking circus in, he's gonna drive everyone out and scour morale.

dusky canopy
#

Yes mythic prog bro

cinder nova
#

Yeah this guy needs to get kicked down 5 or 6 rungs on whatever plastic Fisher Price ladder he's trying to stand atop.

dusky canopy
#

He was bitching in discord general last night about how heroic is a waste of his time so if we do another week of heroic for people to get to let’s/axe blp he’s leaving

#

Lmao

#

We’re talking 1.5hrs to clear heroic btw

cinder nova
#

Tell him to try and not suck any dick on the way to the parking lot.

dusky canopy
#

Out of 9 hours of raiding

#

Lmfao

jagged pier
#

i mean i like talking durign prog

#

its boring otherwise

#

but bitching about loot is sad

dusky canopy
#

Yeah jakey no kidding

jagged pier
#

get him to play a tank

#

lowest prio

cinder nova
#

Yeah, Brewjj, 1000% tell your raid lead to find a replacement STAT and dumpster his stupid ass.

jagged pier
#

like dps in my guild used to complain where im there in like 20 less ilvl than them

#

KEKW

cinder nova
#

There is no world he's not already annoying and rubbing up the rest of your raiders the wrong way.

dusky canopy
#

They’re announcing this weeks roster shortly I’m 1/3 warriors

cinder nova
#

And losing him is far more manageable than hemorrhaging everyone else.

dusky canopy
#

I agree S yeah

#

Bro is a real drag

#

Not the Aug kind either so totally useless

cinder nova
#

Dude needs to take his schitzoposting back to /vg/ or some shit.

#

What was his prog S1/2?

dusky canopy
uneven mason
dusky canopy
#

But mostly silent the whole time

#

Total personality change bro I have no idea

toxic pewter
#

3 warriors? in this meta? LOL

#

i kid i kid

dusky canopy
#

Yeah a Prot warrior and two dps warriors

#

Me being a dps this time around

toxic pewter
#

are they arms or fury

dusky canopy
#

Both of us flex both

#

He’s the better fury

#

I’m the better arms

uneven mason
#

Nerfed rally, gotta double up for the same pad

toxic pewter
#

oh right u dps i forgot

cinder nova
#

What the fuck, I gotta wonder what's got his ghost

#

Was it his first ce

toxic pewter
#

that prot warrior be opening his vault in prot spec

#

for shield

dusky canopy
#

Yes iirc

toxic pewter
#

lmao jk

dusky canopy
#

So probably massive ego boost

#

And this is his new mental

uneven mason
#

Like my kid popping a wheely for the first time and thinking she's going to go into pro dirt bike courses

toxic pewter
#

servers up na

uneven mason
#

Vault in 20

dusky canopy
#

Yes we have 25 people on our roster

#

And a few trials

#

So 27 total I think

#

It’s a bit heavy

cinder nova
#

He's dead, guaranteed.

#

You don't try and hold a raid hostage with an attitude that petulant and a roster that heavy

dusky canopy
#

Depends how much they value WFT

uneven mason
#

Time to let that pleb warm some pine

dusky canopy
#

He’s the only one currently

lusty grotto
#

hope you dont get shafted like me brew 😄

dusky canopy
#

The other warrior has been around longer and we’re pretty dead even in terms of skill/performance

#

So might be taking an L bozo

lusty grotto
#

fuck man

dusky canopy
#

But we’ll see

cinder nova
#

Nothing is good enough to justify or empower that behavior. Period.

lusty grotto
#

why are we so unlucky

uneven mason
#

We have a 24man roster and my GM kicked our #1 DPS for mouthing off like that, don't bring some toxic shit to the table

dusky canopy
#

The other guy is notorious for doing like 5-6 weeks of mythic then dodging raid for his M+ group and pushing title

#

So I might be chillen not sure how they’ll handle it

cinder nova
#

Making sure your entire raid WANTS to come back, have fun, prog M, etc. will eclipse that bullshit every day of the week.

lusty grotto
#

im secretly hoping i can get in when people start to dip

dusky canopy
#

Oh and let’s not forget I had that supposed L moment clarifying the duck mechanics on council

uneven mason
#

Mind you he wouldn't be #1 after the nerfs today

lusty grotto
#

but not holding my breath

dusky canopy
#

“It’s a bad look”

#

Lmao

dusky canopy
#

Guys a clown and gots to go

uneven mason
cinder nova
#

I feel kinda bad for you guys. I got scooped by a great guild at the start of ATSC, but they dropped me saying I didn't have what it took to kill M Sark - then spitefully manged to get scouted by another guild to snake up CE.

uneven mason
#

You're na right?

dusky canopy
#

Yes Na homie

cinder nova
#

I'm just failing upwards keks

lusty grotto
#

i dont really feel bad, i didnt really do as well as i'd hoped in my recruitment

uneven mason
#

Just let me gear up the shaman he's like....402 RN clowning

"didnt have what it took for M sark?"

uneven mason
dusky canopy
#

If I can get CE in 4 months, and it was my very first time EVER mythic raiding besides the first few puggable ones

#

Anyone can

lusty grotto
#

problem is a lot of guilds have warriors and they are reserving very little spots for us

dusky canopy
#

The whole “doesn’t have what it takes” sentiment is totally RE

cinder nova
#

Yeah the first few weeks of prog were pretty tough and we had a lot of lost time on P2 due to bad melee baiting on blossoms, so it'd ruin the entire phase.

#

I think they thought it was a tank issue

#

Although I did get floundered on P3 a few times, which I can take on the chin.

#

Still, spite is like roaring furnace.

#

I hate people telling me what I can and can't do

New people in our heroic clears every week so far

toxic pewter
#

it be like that some... everytime

polar tinsel
#

You can only get gear in your vault from raid bosses you’ve killed right? I only do LFR so there’s no chance for me to get fyrakk gear yet right?

lusty grotto
#

not this past week

#

if you kill fyraak in lfr once though

#

you can get its loot on every LFR slot

polar tinsel
#

So his gear will never roll on the m+ slots of vault? After I killed him

pallid quiver
#

You get loot from any boss prior to the latest one you killed that week until you kill Fyrakk

lusty grotto
#

vault slots item pools go up as high as you have cleared on their respective brackets

#

even if you dont do the bosses

polar tinsel
#

Got it

pallid quiver
#

After you kill Fyrakk on a difficulty, all items can drop on that difficulty

lusty grotto
#

ya luerce explained it a bit better

grizzled nova
#

I only got 8 ephemera last week even though I did all lfr/normal/heroic and blizzard just answered my ticket after 2 days and said "sucks to suck you're a week behind now, nerd"

#

nice, blizzard

lusty grotto
#

i got 8 too

polar tinsel
#

Once I kill him. Can his gear drop in the m+ slots? Or only the raid slots

lusty grotto
#

only in LFR raid slots

#

if you do normal, you need to do fyraak normal for his loot to show up

#

on those slots

#

if you do heroic, same thing applies

polar tinsel

Gotcha. Thanks

actually, I still have champion boots. and, the trinket I'd be replacing with pip's would be a champion stonescales

so, do you guys think I should take the hero boots or pip's

#

do you have a myth helm already?

lusty grotto
#

agreed i would take the helm

jolly crystal

#

I have a hero helm with a socket

helm = chest = legs in terms of raw stats

fuck the socket

might hurt a bit

lusty grotto

helm is one of the 3 biggest stat gains in your character

cosmic wyvern
#

so you're saying I should take the non-tier helm?

#

it has vers/mastery tho

lusty grotto
#

either is fine

strong forum
#

doesnt hurt to run tierhelmet.

lusty grotto
#

basically its crit mastery vs vers mastery

cosmic wyvern
#

I mean, when the difference is crit vs vers, which are pretty equal, I think I'm gonna take the tier one solely for the appearance lol

plus tbh I like crit more

vers is boring

do we swap to the 4 set talent build for 2pc 2pc?

strong forum
#

unless you wanna remove 1 point somewhere else, you cant pick 1x bloodborne

#

no you dont yogi

sick sentinel
#

oh okay, my pwar tree is cursed atm

strong forum
#

you only play a different talent build with t31 4pc

#

if you still have t30 2pc you still play bolster

sick sentinel
#

i have 1 charge and 2 pc

#

so i dont have enough for 4pc

#

i think so at least

#

i've been doing these atm

thats what it was last night

man blood dks being able to solo fyrakk is so annoying

Solo tank fyrakk pugs?

#

Hahahhahahaha

jagged pier
#

apprently its a thing

#

but u need good dps to do that

ionic roost
#

Well your DK essentially solos it for mythic p3

pallid quiver
#

and i just kinda sat at that just sitting there at low HP for about 20 seconds until full bloom came out

jagged pier
pallid quiver
#

and then full bloom hit me for about 280k and i died

jagged pier
#

if they were soloing in mythic bdk would have more stacks

pallid quiver
#

the only healing i had was a rejuv and a wild growth other than what i did for myself

jagged pier
#

the rest of the fight maybe

#

but p3 not a chance on mythic

pallid quiver
#

Yeah, I'm wagering he meant for Heroic, since Heroic Fyrakk isn't too bad with DPS as they are now

jagged pier
#

hc and normal whatever sure

pallid quiver
#

but like

prot war can handle P3 solo then, too, so

jagged pier
#

cool so its 50/50 then

sick sentinel
grizzled nova
jagged pier
#

and scott does that because vipz is dealing with the seed after 4 stacks for echo they bounced the seed

i would be so happy to get a hero/myth timeways trinket

what are the stat weight for prot?

#

Ilvl

#

And check pins

thin spruce
#

ok ty

grizzled nova
#

40/30/20/10 split, ideally

#

but there isn't a massive difference so long as you're haste heavy

thin spruce
rocky iron
#

%

thin spruce
#

(I mean not the part I mentioned, the next)

sick sentinel
#

typically, in a raid, you fight less targets and require to have better mitigation overall, so haste versa has a slight edge

grizzled nova
sick sentinel
#

crit adds to parry which adds to alot of dmg reduced in keys so its haste crit in keys

thin spruce
sick sentinel
#

mastery is whatever, if you get mastery, oh well,

#

you dont want it, but it wont hurt

grizzled nova
thin spruce

ilvl is the most important thing

sick sentinel
#

mastery isnt bad if you are just learning very new, but ya, strength and armor matters far and away more than any of that

#

also set armor

thin spruce
#

ok

rocky iron
#

what do i get??? it all seems pretty bad, nothing is too much an upgrade....

thin spruce
#

the blade 😮

#

its the one from fall right?

sick sentinel
#

the trinket is not very good iirc

#

it acts strangely and it doesnt do great dps from what im told

rocky iron

yeh sword from DOI

probably swortd but sim self

yeh trink is c tier

yeh thanks

maiden ravine
#

I have heroic branch and heroic coiled snake in my vault, tough choice.

rocky iron
#

snake for sure

sick sentinel
#

generally speaking, any trinket that it summons a dude

#

i tend not to use them

maiden ravine
#

they both technically summon stuff, but yeah

#

Screw it the branch has speed

toxic pewter
#

Branch in my opinion

sick sentinel
#

yep, witches fight vaporized the key as theorized

plush imp

its insane how I take no damages compare to my monk

War is feeling good to play

To a point I don't know If I change my Everbloom and DHT trinket to equip Prophetic Stonescales

That's how warriors be

We're the mitigation tank

lmao

#

tbh it's a confusing ability

sick sentinel
#

i even said "2nd and 3rd which will (hurt) not exact word)

#

and then on 3rd boss i called out they were doing thorns

knotty hornet
#

Everyone died to "Aura of Dread"

#

You're supposed to move to remove it

#

No one removed it, everyone died to it

sick sentinel
#

ohhhhhhh

#

im starting to understa a little bit more not

#

fucking warlock took 5.7 million dmg some how

knotty hornet
#

Yeah top damage is gonna be the casts

#

But the killing blow was aura of dread

#

You have to respect the mechanic or you die

#

Casts are healable

sick sentinel
#

its how many yards to run?

solid cargo
#

Did that warlock die to a storming nado

#

And you can just jump in place and that works

lusty grotto
#

wdym run yogi?

#

just jump

#

spam jump

#

yeah conner has the right idea

solid cargo
#

Casters it's "cast then jump, cast then jump"

sick sentinel
#

we died within 38 seconds

#

before was only me

lusty grotto
#

yes

sick sentinel
#

i didnt realize you could jump

solid cargo
#

Yea they didn't know to move. It stacks up every like 3 seconds you stand still, does a good amount per stack.

sick sentinel
#

my solution was hold A 1 second, hold D 1 second

#

during the move mechanics

toxic pewter
#

first dude seemed to have died to the bleed u get unless healer heals them to over 90%

sick sentinel
#

not a fun fight for hard casters i guess

solid cargo
#

Basically no fight is specifically fun for hard casters lol

#

I look at fights like time ways and think "thank god I unga bunga"

lusty grotto
#

no need to feel sorry for them

sick sentinel
#

maybe what i do, is i tell them to lust on second witch activation

lusty grotto
#

they had s2

sick sentinel
#

and then we have dps for next 2-3 cycles

lusty grotto
#

no you lust on start

#

do not overcomplicate it

sick sentinel
#

probably right, just that phase hurts,

lusty grotto
#

kick casts, target the correct one, jump when 2nd witch gets orb, pop defensives on 3rd witch

#

nothing has changed since BFA

modern gazelle
sick sentinel
#

is it the bolts on the active one

modern gazelle
#

LETS GO!!!!1

sick sentinel
#

or is the inactive witches bolts doesnt hit for as much

silent vessel
#

you need to kick inactive ones as well

#

when you have spare kicks

#

it greatly helps

pallid quiver
#

Inactive ones hit the party, active one hits you

#

Is a good way to think about it

#

If you don't need help surviving, send all kicks on inactives

sick sentinel
#

so, i can just reflect the active one and stack it on another one and swap to that inactive one when it goes to bolt and kick it?

solid cargo
#

Never kick the one casting you, reflect go brrrrr

sick sentinel
#

i guess protpaladin has it really easy on that fight this week lol

pallid quiver
solid cargo
sick sentinel
#

i guess i can probably spell block the active ones too

#

like, i know they all do a seperate type of bolt, so maybe its best to use it on X witch, probably just send it on pull

solid cargo
#

Probably doesn't overly matter unless you're in really high keys

how many stack before i SHOULD run the tree through the fire

#

on like a 18 to 20 normal key

vivid orchid
#

never

sick sentinel
#

20? 25?>

#

never? will it kill the group this week or somethin

toxic pewter
#

i go until his melee's start to actually hurt

#

and his ability almost one shots me lmao

vivid orchid
#

thats at about ~65 on those key levels

toxic pewter

sounds about right

vivid orchid
#

each swing is a mythic fyrakk's p3 buster

sick sentinel
#

i did a 18 or 19 or 17 of wm and i had uhhh

#

57 stacks i think it was

#

that was the most i noticed

#

doesn't really hurt until rediculous stacks

strong forum
#

most people in high keys coordinate it around 30 stacks

#

cuz any higher and you run into danger of killing your group

sacred field
#

omg

vivid orchid
#

yea 30 makes sense theres usually a gap for the thorns

#

but at key level 20 ive not noticed a need to do it

sick sentinel
#

I know on baby keys you can farm a free achievement by just dragging him into fire at 2 stacks

#

he cant go above 7 stacks i think it is,

vivid orchid
#

12 it says

sacred field
#

sry for using the language

#

but i really need help doning 20+ oakheart

crushing blow messing me up i have bad ilv 463

i was told there is a list of things that be spell reflected

subtle imp
#

Yo guys! Im 467 ilvl but i think My dps is quite low.. have checked rotation guides and i think im doing it correctly, how do i know how and where tô improve?

strong forum
#

for oakheart you want to leap away from the nightmare breath, and hold SW for the grip

sacred field
#

ok i see

#

ill try that

strong forum
#

for the 2nd grip you need to pool rage and hold demo shout

sacred field
#

is there anything else

#

i have 2 sw

strong forum
#

use spell reflect for each grip

#

for the 3rd you have SW back up

#

(assuming that there is a 3rd)

sacred field
#

does it matter if i do it before

strong forum
#

no if you play double SW, you can send SW on each grip

sacred field
#

can i do it during

strong forum
#

yes

#

you can cast during grip

#

you can use all your abilities

#

ignore pain, impending victory

sacred field
#

no the spell reflect

strong forum
#

also works yes

#

its just 20% magic dmg reduction for 5 seconds

#

you cant reflect anything but you still get the DR

sacred field
#

it does not reflect it the intial hit?

strong forum
#

no

sacred field

i see wow thanks

so leap from breath

its not that intuitive of a spec if i say so

depends how well you can press buttons

like, if you can play wow well, pwar is super easy

toxic pewter
#

yeah thats true the high apm seems pretty punishing for a lot of people i think?

pallid quiver

I've seen more people gray parse while alive on this spec than I have while they're dead

strong forum
#

if you struggle with hitting the correct buttons

pallid quiver
#

I'm not sure what to make of that

strong forum
#

then its a diff story

#

like literal mechanical ability of pressing buttons quickly + decision making skills

#

then i can see pwar being hard

#

but in terms of pure technical complexity of a spec, its super simple

plucky gate

I killed Fyrak on normal, but 8/9 on hc this week so my vault is 3/3 hc and i need the fyrakk trinket still can these be in there, no right?

strong forum
#

no

#

if you didnt kill heroic fyrakk ever

#

you cant loot heroic fyrakk loot

#

but if you DID kill him once in the past

#

whenever

#

you unlock fyrakk loot for vault perma

plucky gate
#

so even tho the normal fyrakk trinkets are heroic ilvl? they cant be in there if the vault only count actual heroic bosses killed?

strong forum
#

correct

#

you overwrote the loot table with heroic loot table

plucky gate
#

so i guess its better to open as dps and hope for signet brand?

thats what im gonna do yes

plucky gate
#

sadge 😄

strong forum
#

but i did kill fyrakk hc

plucky gate

but tyvm

but chance is higher to get good fury loot, than banking on getting rageheart from vault and risking shit shields

if you wanna avoid, then arms yes

ah true

but gholaks drop rate is so high tho

I mean you could say that about almost everything

we had gholak drop in every kill in our guild

and once duplicated even

pick a gear piece and cata or just use it, or even socket

also ragefire damage is so good in m+ its doing more than my signet brand...

jagged ferry
#

I already have scales and 487 shield, so im thinking i dont need to open in prot anymore?

modern gazelle

always vault in fury or arms

#

fury if you need a weapon still and arms otherwise to limit loot pool

jagged pier
#

the max lvl tier piece

jagged ferry
#

Whats the difference between opening in fury and arms?

jagged pier
#

arms u cant get 1handers

jagged ferry

So I should open in fury then?

modern gazelle

yes if you want a weapon still

jagged pier

not really

if u raid

#

theres 0 point

kinda true tbh the weapon will 99% go to you from fyrakk

Hello, are into the fray (+10% haste) and the talent which gives +2% haste additive or multiplicative ?

multiplicative with your total haste amount

its more damage on us as they get a leggo

ashen coral

im also pretty sure 2hand oblit is better in most situations anyway or just behind so leggo just makes it better, and giving it to someone who will replace compared to someone who wont is just dumb

Yes, ITF just adds flat haste

#

No x amount of stat. It’s just 10%

grizzled nova
bleak breach
#

You sure? Mine just goes up from 41% to 51%

grizzled nova
#

it's a multiplier on your total haste amount

ashen coral
#

And if by calculation I am supposed to get 136.4 i should have 36% and not 37 right ?

#

If yes then it seems to be multiplicatif after several tests

#

And the +2% haste is also multiplicative

dusky canopy
#

Select talents, Equip gear, press buttons

#

Easy gaming

ashen coral
#

By removing my 2 rings I get +21.81% from the pure amount of stat, and with into the fray + wild strikes i get 37%

But if it was additive I should have ~136.4 so 36%, but i do get 37%, and if it was multiplicative i would get 136.67 so 137%

Therefore it is multiplicative

grizzled nova
#

very cool i'll take more multi haste

bleak breach
#

No idea what I’m reading, I’ll just continue to stack haste lol

jagged ferry
ashen coral
#

Isn't fury useful to get dps trinket too ?

bleak breach
#

Arms is better, lower loot pool

#

Only need fury if you still need a weapon

#

If you raid at all you’ll get Gholak and only replace Gholak with Gholak

ashen coral
#

Okay I see

But arm gives also double yand weapon that we don't want no ?

bleak breach
#

But why do you need a 1h weapon if you don’t need one?

#

Arms will give you better odds of a trinket as you’re taking all the 1h weapons out

ashen coral
jagged ferry
#

I only need a 1H which is why I’m confused haha

But is a 483 gholak better than 489 weapon from m+ pool ?

What would you open in Sokraxx

Once you get a gholak, the only upgrades

are better gholaks

bleak breach
jagged ferry
#

Based off my gear though, would you open in arms?

bleak breach
#

Yep

#

You have a 489 shield

jagged ferry
#

So always in Arms for Gholak?

ashen coral
#

If I already have a 486 shield, should I stay in protection even if I have other stuff more underleveled ?

bleak breach
#

Is the shield myth track or hero?

ashen coral
#

It is a crafted shield for the moment

bleak breach
#

Do you raid much? Or just m+?

bleak breach
ashen coral
#

I do raid now but i'll never be able to do mythic raid i think

#

Unless the first boss maybe

bleak breach
#

Could maybe chase a shield in prot then? It’s really just your choice. The only difference going to fury/arms is some trinkets

#

But first boss in mythic drops crit haste shield, so shield from vault isn’t really necessary.

ashen coral
jagged ferry
bleak breach
#

Yes, but you can’t get Gholak in arms

#

Arms is literally just for trinket chasing
