Like you'd hit people with knaifu, but not her book
What youre saying is that we need dual wielding shadow priest
I'm questioning the efficacy of a book as a blunt weapon
Just gotta hit hard enough
The range is like 0
Book doubles as throwing weapon, thus more effective
Gotta make the hit count
I mean, you could always use it to apply rotation to the skull, giving a high likelihood for at least a concussion or some other form of brain damage

Are you gonna shotput that thing
Probably not I mean, it's wheel of time, which should be revered and kept in good condition
i had so many bad games on this thing
yeah but
why did my co-tanks do literally double mine
over the course of the entire kill
i got a blue parse š
Skill issue yeah
Wait I sort of know why
His hits are smaller
Itās known that small hits work better with augury
@chrome falcon
Thereās some weird interaction with small hits
He has 8x more hits but each hit is 1/3rd as big
I mean, the total damage per proc is capped
so this is how the trinket reads; most likley he got procs during roots
If you get procs at the right times you'll do more dam
Especially if you can't use up a proc
we love rppm
as it says at the top
"approx procs per minute"
it can high and low roll
its the same shit as forgestorm
can do 1% or 10% of your dmg
does having more haste make it more consistently good though or am i misunderstanding how it even works
Yes
Same with signet
They both scale with haste
The more haste you have, the more procs you will get
Ok cool
i've had fight where signet was fully stacked in 2min30
and some where it took 4min or even 5
Yeah signet is also rppm
But it's 3rppm+ haste
So, way less variance
Issue is just it doesn't do any dmg until 15 stacks
Only then it goes turbo
Do DKs get more overall damage from those 2 trinks anyway? I tank with one and mine never beat his. Always a few 100k damage behind. Neither have augury, but signer brand and rezans. Is it this just an unlucky coincidence?
wtf..
why are they not considered a high apm spec though (unless they are?)
Different
ok
Cuz all their buttons have cds
^
They don't have any off gcd buttons
i guess runes dont help either
We do
Every single of their buttons is on gcd
We passively do 1000x more auto attacks even though the lower haste due to a couple of abilities too
20-30% of our buttons are off gcd
I havenāt played one in a long time, that would make them very robotic to play wouldnāt it?
You could predict exactly what and when to press a button
They are yes
They don't have any procs
iirc
@viral arch
Dunno if they still have dnd procs
Crimson scourge yes
Yeah Crimson is still a thing
@strong forum in the case of Fervid Bite proc on you is active - but there's no Rend on the target, and both SS & TC are not on cooldown:
1- Do you send SS, then clap while fishing for a 2nd fervid proc
2- Do you clap first then SS
Send SS
figured. thank you sir

God if we had to micromanage that
Which tbh that would be so rare anyway because you reset tc at the same time
thunder claps cd is so tiny that you never have to use rend ever
basically no cd during avatar
right but the reason I asked is because when you send that SS, then clap, sometimes SS doesnt reset quickly enough and I'm just watching my Fervid proc chilling waiting while those multiple seconds feel like an eternity in misery
That's what you Bank rage for
And send revenge
To reset SS, instead of sending an IP
Crimson Scourge exists.... but we hard cast DnD
cause of the buffs we get for standing in it
dont know what the exact amount we actually get/consume a crimson scourge proc, but it might be once per minute
kinda isn't
big badge of shame
like, it is technically a proc but with death's echo, the rotational pressure to just have D&D uptime and the fact that CS cannot proc while D&D is on the floor, you're basically getting at most a CS proc every 40s
great spec design, covered in the upcoming retro article because it's fucking dumb at this point. Imagine the world where you don't even put D&D down to damage shit, the D&D is for you

Mandl comin in with the fax
naw, consecration is still miles worse
Mdi is EB and Rise
Pretty pumped about EB
But I can't dodge deilos breath and Idk why
I leap max range and I never manage to get away from it
that just means youre too slow
you cant really jump reactively
you gotta know when he's about to cast it and be ready to jump
Wait
in p1 he casts it after summoning ads so for the first few you can start running when he spawns the portals, cus he'll be stationary
How far do I need to get?
Is it 45 or 60 yards?
Like is it the hulk from NL distance?
Jfc
Am I supposed to be dodging it through z axis or just literally running that far
you can probably just watch a video of a pwarr doing it on youtube
all i do is check the timer to see when he's about to cast
turn my camera
and just jump + run
works for me
me done
It's not actually 100 yards directly away, by the way. It's roughly just a bit more than a max leap, so something a bit larger than 40 yds directly away
nice grats

damn, even Nim has lego before me

next week for sure though
22 lessers must be doing something.... right?
still no heroic gholak or rageheart though š¦
and to be fair i cleared heroic week 1
on my dk
i would trade in a heartbeat
same though
yo, someone get Ion in here; I got a Heroic Gholak and Rageheart I want to give to my boi Nim and hes gonna give me lego
well i need a 2nd one
cause chipadin
thats a cool half a mil down the drain lmao
by making both
just switch accounts
well im probably gonna save a lot more gold on chipadin since all my crafters and mules are in arthas and thats where shes at
you made leggo yet?
2 friends helped me so it wasnt that bad
nah on heroic
thats not how it works
š¦
finally got heroic rageheart woot
dude we had 13 plate in this heroic fyrakk kill
zero legendaries
buy it
he ghosted me
damn
Me too !
pretty fucked up to laugh like that
i was offered 10k for the heart I just got so this guy is just a prick
the DH offered me 50k
cause i was top roll before this arsehat rolled
apparently ass + hat = bad
got automodded lol
lets see his dps
yeah i mean 50k alone is pretty good considering we over half way through the season
thats what you get for negotiating with rag
oh dead last what a surprise
i have nothing against Rag players though
theyre just like any other
never fails
calm down satan
his name is furrytank lmaooooooo
idk about that i wouldn't go that low
i have better trinkets
man if i loot spec prot on fyrakk augury drops
and if i loot spec dps rageheart drops
š«
I won lfr one few weeks ago and last week got hc one from vault with avoidance. Game is too easy 
Still no legendary axe 

proud of you 
only on easy
but i lost my save game file, so, i dont get the early game boost like i did in past
if i put it on hard mode, the grim reaper comes after me


praying for you my brother in arms
š«”
leggo is neat
and honestly p cheap rn
@lusty grotto how much did you pay for axe total?
like 200k
probably less than
im selling off my excess so cant accurately say
but it should be around that
i know some dumb leather was super expensive that i recall
yup
my axe cost me 170k last week so i assume its somewhere along those lines
but i didnt pay my crafters much
Should i reroll from arms to prot now?
Obviously
Should always reroll to prot
ez pz didnt even do full run, just sniped gnarlroot council and fyrakk(rage heart is normal tho)
altought had to pay for rage heart
which dungeon you guys like the least
i dont like rise personalyl
i can remember loving VP and halls valor when many didnt
i was trying to say like current keys dungeons and i was thinking about old ones i liked but others didnt
dont have to have a reason you dont like it am just curious
Really like BRH, altought probably just cause its easy
i find that place intimidating because i dont have deep knowledge of its workings
Howwwww do I get a shield/1h thatās to my level ilvl and start tanking as a prot warr? Craft? Or find something lower level and switch my loot spec and just, wait (farm lower + keys)? Lol
Are you already eatablished as a DPS War do you mean or is this like a new char kinda deal?
If you have the spark and crests, just craft
Or pug mythic gnarlroot and hope
If the new char kind, easiest would be to just quick farm out crests or buy cheap boes and just start slapping M+; it's possible to do 20s in 44x gear if you're skilled enough, though you only need to go up to 16s to farm crests to craft highest level crafting gear
If already established, just hit things that give 1H/Shield with prot loot spec on while being DPS and tell the nerds you're running with to get bent if you win
Gotcha. Yeah established dps, just wanting to tank. Iāve tanked before as a Brew, and want to get back into it.
for shields run with paladin and shamans if trying to get as dropp
they could trade it if you ask nice, theres like blue crafted shields, no spaek low ilvl
Is Deathray Yogi?
Yes
never was basically
like, if somoene saved yogi chat logs, you'd see where i wasnt happy with my chice of name even years ago
end time would be a nightmare of a key, the final boss on tyranical
healers nightmare fight im sure
does murozond even do anything special
only remember breath + timezones + time reset mechanic
Smart
Until he hits a point where he outlives the resets
Is there any trick to tank the tree Boss in DHT, I am using defensive stance, rageheart and other defensives on each tank damage, I ran out of CDs and I got oneshot eventually ( i have 31%) versa
I was tanking the breath
I guess that would have helped
31% vers is low or too high?
my stats are 40% haste, 28% crit, 25% mastery and 31% vers
40% with what
if you have 40% without ItF, then you'd have 54% with ItF
anyway, 31% vers is insanely high, regardless
isnt there also like perma swirlies that stay on his fight
like, i think thats the way the game is designed for him to win, used all your resets but now entire playfield is littered
yall got any prefered wago/wa addons you prefer for keeping track of IP/SB
Iām not crazy but IP should have a significantly high up time in content that youāre not blowing through with little chance or death correct? Just ran a key with a warrior tank and uh, it was interesting.
IP I don't track, never saw a need for it
I think I just stole the SB tracker from Nomer's WA package, works well enough
Technically, it entirely depends on the damage profile you're facing as to what uptime looks like
It'll generally pretty high, though, considering how much rage we need to dump
idk but i had 89% uptime on ignore pain in waycrest +21 yesterday apparantly
never tracked it before
close to 100% shieldblock uptime is where its at tho
Interesting defines pretty much every key I've done with a prot warrior where I wasn't the prot warrior lul
dont think ive healed a single prot wrrior with shieldblock uptime above 70%
You could drop some vers/mast for crit but itās not biggy
Vers will be slightly better defensively while crit will be slightly better offensively. Thereās next to no difference, stats sound good.
Aslong as that haste is before itf
heres a breakdown of how a BDK deals with oakheart
for prot war, take the CD reduction for leap; leap is your defensive for each breath (no damage taken big win!)
for grips be in DStance and use Spell Reflect for each one
on top of DStance and Spell Reflect, Rotate SW, Last Stand, and Demo
no amount of vers, crit, mastery or whatever is going to be the difference maker on doing this boss (or any for that matter)
Just get like 300% vers, ezpz
and have some rage for IP for grips
At any rate, the above
If you happen to have rageheart, that's also free help, as well
yea, can combine rageheart with last stand
or demo
whichever you feel is weaker between shieldwall casts
The biggest piece is definitely to leap his breath every time; it really chills out the amount of defensives you need to rock
On top of that, remember to not panic and keep pressing buttons while gripped
You can still funnel rage into your abilities, causing Indomitable to kick in and help heal, too
but basically, DStance+Spell Reflect is 40% DR on top of any other big cd you put on it
And go into it with full IP and Rage.
for any hard dungeon fight this tier, have this same approach; just map out the periods you need big CDs and plan ahead
You can also impending victory during every grip
I don't know if anyone else has the same issue with Oakheart or if it's just something wrong with my UI but when I get gripped my own party frame dissappears and I am replaced with Oakheart, I've taken to setting myself as focus during that fight so that I can see my rage & health bar. Aside from that I deal with it as everyone else here has mentioned. Leap the breath, def stance and spell reflect each time the grip comes in and one big cd. Worth communicating with your healer so you don't overlap the big buttons.
I like to be able to see when best to hit impending victory!
Oh, my HP bar doesn't dissapear.
Yes that's probably because that's considered kn a vehicle or something, and we have removed the loading in that case
Ah yeah mine does š throws me right off.
At least that's been my theory for a while, just didn't check it out
Sounds right..
Beside sim what is best cap for haste/vesr/crit/mastery etc... to feel good un m+ ?
No caps.
Fair enough thanks
good morning everybody
Wave
Any tips on how to survive Larodar's tankbuster charge? Going to tank mythic for our guild today and on yesterdays practice HC i got clapped hard and my CD trinket even procced.
D stance and run as far away as possible
Can also SR
Damage is based on distance traveled or rather lack of distance traveled
So leap out every tank buster
Just DS+SR is enough? :O I mean i always get GFTO but it still hits like a truck, plus walking into the fire is oof
Yeah itās enough
At least it is on heroic, the boss didnāt slap me that hard tbh
leap out, charge back in then i guess?
since I got clapped pretty hard it must be the distance because i usually walked out and leaped back, since charge distance was too far. I am ilvl 486, but we had pretty low geared healers and only 2 of them on that run with 15 peepos... could be the scaling that was fucking me there, plus standing too long in the fire and missing IP
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/KG6vYwFW3MakQJ1T#fight=7&type=summary that was the fight btw.
(first time "properly" raid tanking this season - i usually tanked in previous seasons, but since i was put to DPS since mythic prog of aberrus, I have not had the change to brush up on tanking skills, so I am a bit afraid)
I also guess P2 tankbuster is the time when we want to use SW since it hits also very hard and is pure magic dmg?
Here is what I did on mythic:
First charge:
Leap+SW+SR+Defensive stance
As the boss walks back (taunted by the other tank) use charge to get back.
Third charge:
I asked our mistweaver for life cocoon, used leap+SR+defensive stance
As before, charged back
Remember that you can ask DPS for externals too. Ret palas have Sac too iirc
Thanks for the tips! Will try to use them as best as possible :D
I have been progressing this boss and I only walk out and then leap back⦠are you suggesting that is not far enough and leap is required?
If you do your rotation well enough you can have shield wall for every single charge you need to tank
in hc i prefer to leap back but i can imagine its better to have the leap distance on mythic
for the DR
Does the damage reduction not get capped at a certain distance?
On heroic you don't even need to fully run out into the fire
Assuming that your group is good*
i just dont wanna kill the squishy 450s that are in the group for whatever reason
Thats a huge assumption ngl
step 1 to happiness in life: never assume anything

only leads to disappointment
I will try this but I have died not being able to be in healers reach with this
I love that furious charge has the OG WC3 malfurion portrait
recycling is good
Look at my bio
Agreed
I just bought a new pair of headphones and a driver to repair the old ones instead of throwing them away. Recycling and repairing good
But americans drive 6 ton trucks to buy groceries so its kinda pointless 
god i love flying my private jet to pick up mcdonalds
Recycle them into garbage.


we could all solve the pollution problem if people just got over the stigma of eating garbage
but yall not ready for that conversation
Wdym? Everyone already eating garbage..like McDonalds etc.
out of all possible contexts to use that gif im glad it was this one
I mean
I got a webcam and could use more disposable income
I just dont think the world is ready for my brick of a body
I leap away because it gives more breathing room to our healers, never suggested that leap is required or that you can't walk far enough.
Hey man, weāre not the global leader in pollution
^
Real
Me driving my little Kia getting flashbanged by the lifted F-150 tailgating me (Iām already going 10 over)
thats a game im playing on 360 indie games, one of the better-ish ones i had
it's a cone of something but i cant think of the name, sent it to griff i think
āKia getting flashbangedā?
Oil spill game
hes talking about pollution and i was literally playing that game last night,
i'll probably buy a hacked xbox 360 as well, would love to have access to the full 3500 titles, they arent quite flash games but you could mistake alot of them for that and the best ones rival ps2/early ps3 graphics
i just hope your not mad when i dont and you dont get it
Goodstuff congratz
If you get tboned it will go over your head 
Least ragepilled DH player
3.1? what
im trying to imagine a world in which that makes sense but i cant find one
im guessing IO score
yeah i stop at like 3k these days
had a team but we cant push past 24s for many reasons
and pugging is hell
but fuck it might try and get back into it a little
too bad no one plays m+ anymore
forming groups takes like 30 minutes unless you settle for garbage
Same
but its more fun with a good team
Everything is more fun with friends. Even kicking rocks down a dirt road
š
Raiding is fun if youre pugging only if you get curve first or second week cause after that youre stuck with idiots
i pugged curve week 2 this season
was fun when it was over
the process itself was jarring
Ye HC was pain thats why it decided to unsub

took me 4 hours to kill nymue lol
had to raid lead it eventually cus everyone left and i cba to reclear
with another group
We wiped an hour on volco that was the breaking point 
pog
Tanks just falling over
how
On hc every tank can take at least one "whoops"
Or did you just end up with the window lickers brotherhood supplying tanks?
Defo window licking mouthbreathers
Im even more glad you got it
fuck that guy

should of had the common decency to just offer you gold for it
What is he if he's raging at you for being 3.1
3.1k IO or something stupid
3.5k
he did offer me gold for it but i just said "im good" and then he continued pestering me until this
he already traded me and put the money in

bro was starving
i imagine he's the type of guy to pester women in DMs how much he wants them then call them every word in the book when he gets rejected
š§
Hes a nice guy. Why do women not want him
lol a normal rage heart?
man is trippin hard
or get a healer to give you a leaf if you want a shield trinket that bad
ngl tho trinket feels p good
its a cool trinket
I would do a weekly Fyrakk on my DH.... but I still need lego on the DK
and gholaks on my war and pal (though I dont play em as much anymore š¦
I know people like this who play this game; they once tried to get everyone they knew, including me, to start whispering and harassing the guy, calling him less than polite things and that he's too stupid to know he doesn't need that piece of gear in an attempt to get the piece.
though worst of all was the fact he wanted it for free because he deserved it
Even worse to me was the harassment starter was being carried through that run.
Anytime I try to play with my friends that I like, these are the type of people who I have to play this game with
it really sours me on playing the game outside of pugging
yeah i feel you
play with a dude who can tilt real hard
and you just kinda sit there like :l
they're still like that before they tilt
The one friend just has terrible friends he plays the game with
They just get even worse when they do
A little tilt once and a while is fine.... but once someone becomes a known tilter.... we aint playing games together
I aint got the patience for it
fix your malfunction or GTFO
I've had worse interactions on VC, too, in WoW prior. I've directly heard spats of domestic abuse before from one of my co-tanks back in like 2012 or 13 or so where they just legit swung at their wife because she wanted help moving something or something like that
so like, there's a reason when I say I personally prefer to pug
it's just never been a good time for me outside of playing with Ghash playing with premade groups
@warm plinth shoutouts to being good guy
Ghash for sf!
I'm not sure if I'd sacrifice Ghash to the SF altar where people start asking him whacko questions, but he deserves recognition
okay but admin tho, you can do whatever you want, now we're talkin' :L
SF is basically signing up for 100 new DMs daily
a small price to pay for piss-name
No! Dont give him SF! ITs a trap!
its like being given officer role in your guild!
dont do it
Dont think ive ever met a cat person i dont like
You'd be surprised

./votekick
I can only imagine how annoying it is, especially when a majority of the Info a person would need is already pinned lol
Ive seen cats and dogs be friendos so its fine. Ive also seen a cat dog but im not sure that was real
My nickname in here and being owner of MPF already does that kek
Yeah but ghash owns
I don't think they actually get DMs often
My pony friendship?
Iām just chatting if Iām wrong Iām wrong
I remember having to DM Mwahi once and it took him like 2 hours to even see the message because he didn't immediately notice he had to accept receiving the DM :L
Mythic Plus Friends
Ah
I never notice the new DMs on mobile
I'm the interim owner right now; owner is on hiatus
Doot moving up in the world
Yeah message requests on mobile are not very obvious
And then he died
New mobile's kinda whack for spotting DMs unless you know where to look
Friend requests are just as bad when your Discord is stuck on a server
especially new ones
You have to specifically look for it on mobile
I still try to swipe left for pins/search too
I mostly only use mobile to answer questions in a fight game Discord while at work in the immeidate timeframe, so the hate hasn't kicked in for me
Place your bets fam, 30% wipe on tindral this week. How many more pulls you think
1500
3
7 pulls
69

Weāre currently hitting i2 with 4 or 5 dead
tindral pre-nerf was one of those fights I looked at just mechanics wise and went "Damn, this looks like it sucks"
Luerce needs to key w/ me more
Itās not too hard. So far the only hard overlap as a tank is first mushrooms because of the beams
I was gonna say that requires me to boot up the game instead of playing fight game, but I actually have interest in playing the game this month because the magical girl gear smh
Lol
I barely got trading post done in time last night
Was like 3 hours from ending
Big sadge this Tuesday I showed up to Tindy prog expecting to arms blast and RL yeeted the dream into oblivion because roots were not dead quick enough
Just full mega bladestorm 4hed
The only roots that matter are the 2nd ones
Oh damn i forgot to check trading post. I dont have sub but im looking for a reason 
In each phase
I tried to do the /ponder in amirdrassil thing and it didn't work
Honestly other than the Raf rocket coming back and the monthly mog, it's not a great month
I like it
There's an unused old sword model that's pretty cool but that's about it
I'm a big magical girl fan because I watched a lot of magical girl shows as a wee toddler, so uh, a lot of this speaks to me on some kind of level
I got the RaF rocket already 
Same
Blizz tmog game has been way too prude, so it's a step in the right direction
I don't think it mostly even looks good in this game tonewise or anything, but
Is it mine turn to mald now because a unobtainable mount I have is coming back to trading post

I am glad they're bringing them back in the post though because I lost my original account when I had all of them
It's not tho, that was just data mine xdd
Or do you mean the rocket
I hate pvp but i want the horsie
I'm a huge fan of the new cloaks and the tabards. They look great. And some of the weapons are so good
The rocket ye
Rocket I would wager, ye
Eh who cares
New scarfs are pog
Iām glad they are bringing back āunobtainablesā
Now I just need the nightwing and I'll have all my Raf mounts back
I've got the obsidian birb thing, so I don't really care; I've already got my "cart lazy people" mount
Picture
I have the RAF plane 
I just hope they carry over the whelping thing from Dragonflight and make it for all mounts so I can use any mount as a lazy people cart
Only real men can sport pink
It's salmon
I have a neon pink shirt somewhere. Havent worn it in years
Anything pink related is pink
Idk I'm not a real man but
I totally sported hot pink shirts*, big baggy pants, and DC shoes with pink laces in middle school

It took me an embarrassingly long time to know what redrum meant
Anyways I should do some work. Later peeps!
I had to Google that

But yeah now I remember them
Just did too
For everyone else its murder
tnt =/= bombs
fight me
(traders)
i mean ya, but i think bomb i think like, you know like black bowling ball with a skull and a fuse
type of bomb Drake would make
tnt means tips and tricks
Who uses bombs anymore anyway
if bad guy is defined by who uses the bomb then i got bad news for NA
i just cant think of a whole lots of good guys that make/use bombs
not that i disagree but saying "good and bad" doesnt really work in our world
maybe in comic books ykno
everything is relative
A lot of mines still use tnt and bombs
not like you see super man creating bombs to use against his enemies, i couldnt argue that with batman
They even use them on some construction sites
true, thats lawful ues of bombs

Lets hope this doesnt shift to who supplies the bomb
if theres anything this protection warrior specific class discord needs
its a political argument
No argument. All countries bad
Let's just go back to complaining about pwarr dtier cause subcreation said so
I just heard the funniest thing. Hi, im Bob the Necromancer. Today we are doing an unboxing. Followed by him pushing the shovel into a grave 
yo, I got you fam
*why is prot war bad * 
F for Fuckin reroll already
But 25 rounds up to 30, Naowh knew the whole time.
we on prot war is f tier!? I believe it
that last pull on DHT before tree boss, VDH can easily handle all 5 both tyran and fort.. On my prot war? LOL GL can't stun the channels
ur awesome man
Be thankful we are even on the list. War is so bad we shouldnt even be named
@pallid quiver
should like go to a dh discord
bro i play both VDH and Prot warrior since SL every season. I've never seen prot war this bad.
Prot war isnāt bad, VDH is just fucking broken
^
I guess that's true too. š
crazy how we went from s-tier absolute meta to f tier
especially when we pretty much only received buffs

Rework power creep
All the reworks have been insane so far. Every specc that has been reworked became meta lmao
i mean it's just certain dungeons I feel.. cuz in S1, we were great cuz of all the physical dmg right?
Wasnāt even the best
Unfortunately, Blizz was super hands on with tuning at the start of DF, which just happened to be when Prot War was meta. If we had been meta in S2 like guardian or in S3 like Veng then we wouldnāt have been touched.
Yeah
All the nerfs were so cringe
Block was great, our niche even
Then they nerfed our block talent
-_-
On recieved buffs since s teir btw
But still trash
Ppl forget that part that we havent been nerfed once since S1
So dont know how we are bad š¤·
No utility is such an insane excuse to me
Like, vdh has too much utility is the issue. Nothing to do with the amount we have or don't have.
Other tanks have too much but they won't give warriors anything
Tank utility has never been the deciding factor in what tank is run unless that utility has been brokenly strong. E.g. sigils right now or consumption on bdk in legion.
Dh shouldnāt have 2 charges of sigils
or, maybe other tanks should have equally as bonkers stuff š
Isn't one also CDR by that evokers buff?
Or⦠they just let all the tanks have tools like 2 silence sigils/divine toll
I mean we spec 2 points to have half of a sigil
Massgrip baseline⦠maybe intim shout on AM
Like imagine if they made spear work like grasp, and thunderous roar be a hard silence
I like the idea of intervene+spell reflect being a thing
Dunno but every sigil hit reduces all sigil CDs by 3s... and there are 5 different sigils lol
So infinite grips and silence
Making sigils dr would go a long way (at least for silence sigil which is easily the more broken one)
Remove silence from the dr
It still stops entire pack tho
Like they removed our op shit from am
I didn't say it was the solution. It's a step in the right direction.
Yer but ppl that say that, then like classes of utility we miss, instead of just compare one to one.
I don't want them to neuter vdh because frankly vdh has been shit its entire existence
But vdh has too much
But obviously they went too far
I will agree
I agree. VDH this tier is really fun. they really need to make other tanks as fun.
Considering they have aoe stun too, they should not have 2 charges of sigils, especially that they have cdr on them
id rather they not nerf the double sigil from VDH and instead look at other tanks and think 'hmmm, what would be totally bonkers for these guys thats cool and unique?'
I think if they are going to nerf tank damage as much as it is now, they should all have vdh levels of utility
Yes and no, bliz did always want vdh to be more a m+ tank than raiding ever since it was in the game, but it strong in both atm which means it doesnt have a niche
They need to nerf sigils a bit, either remove cdr from them or 1 charge
Making other specs just as broken is not a solution. The stronger you make specs baseline, the more ridiculous mechanics have to be to make things challenging.

Powercreeping every class just because one is nutty leaves us with a pretty lame final result
Why does it have to be more challenging because you have more tools
U remove not add ghash is right
The tools should fit the challenge
No they have to give u more than u can handle so u need to save and stuff
I feel like you just answered your own question there
Stop making sense jeree
The challenge shouldnāt be ādeal with coming up short on toolsā
The tools do fit the challenge (referring to non-vdh). Dh just does it easier.
And if the challenge matched the tools
Your average player couldnt do it anyway
And the gap would be even bigger
DH is the master of all trades lol
Every tank is doing the highest keys
Tools should fit the challenge
If you have more tools -> More challenge
Yea and youāre all unhappy with how challenging it is for pwar
Meaning they need more tools
ā¦
Reading comprehension struggles in this channel as always
No, I'm unhappy with how much easier it is for vdh. Other tanks are comparable. Vdh is too powerful
ā¦
Just like last season with bear i dont even want VDH to get nerfed i just want other tanks to be buffed
I mean they still have to press the buttons
Who said they didn't?
Most people in here are saying don't buff warrior because buffing everyone is lame, nerf the outliers
Youāre acting like the very act of piloting a vdh means the key is easy
No, no I'm not.
The fact that dh can solo stop entire pack of mobs for 30 sec pressing 1234 isnāt right lol
Never said that, never implied that.
Why⦠tanks do no damage
What else are we going g to do
Die???
Let the party wipe
Thatās not a challenge
Thatās not fun
DH does the most damage of any tank while also stopping packs
I mean other party members have stops too no?
and it's not close
I feel like VDH has the same problem as holy pala after their rework. All their buttons do everything
Did you miss the part where every tank is doing the highest keys?
They have kicks and stops
Holy Paladin is the worst healer rn
Ye but it wasnt last season
I can't with this chat right now lol.
and then they gutted the spec and made it miserable to play
And everyone wants that for vdh now omegalul
No one said any of that. We said that dh just have too many aoe stops compare to other tanks
Make Bonestorm great again
Also dh tank is extremely tanky for both magic and physical
I think the tank being able to handle a lot of cc is a good role, just unfair to not give the opportunity to the other tanks
Jeree making up his own version of this conversation in his head and responding to imaginary points.
Thanks Jordan
In Mobas tanks control the situation too and its fun. When VDH does it its fun too. No idea why blizz doesnt realize that lol
Not sure why one tank should have 7 aoe stops but I guess
Lol, am I supposed to be offended into pretending I'm wrong by that or?
I dont want a FFXIV version where every tank has the exact same kit tho
Go say weird stuff to people buddy
Doesnāt have to be the same but toolkit imbalance atm is a bit much
There's plenty of different types of tanks in those games, and not all of them even have CC
control comes in different ways; but tanks should have unique ways they control a situation; VDH have their sigils, Prot Pals have their shield and externals, etc. etc.
Yea the gap defo needs to be closed
You're saying enough weird stuff for everyone.
Unless Dh is tuned to be so squishy that it's stops are needed to live then it's pretty ridiculous to have so many
Anyway, break is over 
we need interesting things for Prot War so that is different from what other people have
and makes it fun to play one
Would love to see pwar brought up to par with interesting and tasteful utility
Thatās bad tuning, we had tanks made of paper early sl with tanking pack for 15sec then being forced to kite
It was tragic
Then nerf their cc
You can't be as tanky as everyone else with double their cc and think that's reasonable
It requires very little thought to request a nerf, it requires actual understanding to suggest a good buff
Nerfing things is a shortcut
Banner pls
People have talked about banners being a type of util prot war could have (what they would do IDK, but could be cool!)
Iāll do anything for banner
maybe intervene being baked into the spec and allow the prot war to zoom around and block spells/damage for friends would be cool
Having crit banner instead of infinite stops might make people give a thought instead of just inviting purple or whatever is fotm rn
Tinfoil hat, if VDH keeps double silence sigil in War Within, then physical damage of mobs will be buffed to compensate, and Prot war will shine. VDH is only good because how nuts dragonflight caster mobs are
Vdh has insane mele avoidance
Sure letās have every tank with 7 aoe stops, hell make it 10
very true; casters that just repeat cast shit can die in a hole
Yea a lot better to let the dps do damage anyway
VDH has everything. Pala has lockdown with shields too and nobody cares
If tanks arenāt doing competitive dps It is fine to have them be cc bots
Pally has sac, off heals, bop/magic bop
Pally and gdy are close utility wise I would say
who can help carry that load
All other tanks are miles behind
I always forget about sac and bop because most palas dont have them on bars kekW
Doesnt matter if ret or prot
which is very different from VDH util which is mob control
VDH cant heal a group, dispell a group, or give a external like a Prot Pal can
consequently Prot Pal, although has control, no where near as much as VDH (though silence sigil doesnt work on non stunable mobs)
Look at the fat walrus tho
so that three caster pack in EB before 3rd boss... Prot Pal is gucci and VDH is just another tank
Sustained lockdown from pala is pretty good
or that second boss in EB; Prot Pal shields just be doing work
Prot Pal and VDH should be considered the standard imo of how modern tanks should be
and we need to bring everything up to that level in their own way
1000%
I agree Augusto.. So who ended up winning? BUFF OTHER TANKS VS NERF VDH?
Tasteful skill based gameplay
They can still silence one of them with sigil
@toxic gyro ?
I dont think buff even applies anymore. Just rework lol
Especially BDK
And Monk again
If you hit one of those eb casters with sigil they will still get silenced, just have place sigil properly
BRM needs less stagger and more uptime on guard
@toxic gyro On second boss or where do you mean? Cause bosses are immune?
all the mages are immune to silence as well?
bosses arent immune
Idk about boss but caster pack before 3rd boss you can
if you ONLY hit 1 caster
with sigil during cast
and NOTHING else
silence sigils functions like interrupt
š
but only if its 1 target being hit at all mid cast
oh shit
then you can interrupt 2nd boss and mages
I had no clue
ya VDH tech is very wonky
so they are immune to silence. But silence just works differently then I guess.
i guess it interrupts one mob, but it wont give them silence debuff
they are immune to silence
but sigil can still interrupt mid cast if its only 1 target
uhu
as long as its one target
that's dumb
that it just for whatever reason works like that without being stated anywhere
ngl, thats a pain for the triple caster before 3rd boss in EB
I want dem stacked XD
well yeah
What I would really want from Protection Warrior is the ability to actually Protect other people.
The return of Safeguard
Bodyguard for PvE
Morale Killer for PvE
but for second boss, could be useful
just to reduce # of casts going out on that fight
by far my least favorite fight of the tier
thats cool stuff!

Also make Intervene work on spells
intervene has become such a underutilized spell in DF
was really nice in SL given big DR to someone
but I think zooming around to protect people and preventing damage are good Prot War things
They nerfed it simultaneous with it no longer being a source of Shield Block uptime
By nerfed it I mean removed Safeguard

No
We're not allowed to have nice things
False advertisement
Wait we were debating our lack of utility if compared to VDH?
VDH just has way to much
yea, we were coming up with cool things for prot war instead of blanket nerfing another class š
You should be rewarded for using your tools correctly
Not having enough tools is a poop challenge
Wtb row that changes shockwave into AA
We could get that AoE shield wall talent back and we still probably wouldnāt be any more powerful than DH currently lol
Gif T13 4p for all tanks
Hmm maybe itās just me but I personally would prefer all tanks having VDH utility
Is that dragon soul?
ye
1000%
I just think giving DH 2 charges of each sigil was too far considering all the sigil they now have.
That's what we saying
At the very least they should have increased the CD of them as a caveat.
Yea since our dps is so nerfed (in tank role) being a cc bot is nearly equally fulfilling and lets you carry the cc and the damage dealers do damage
it doesnt even have to just be CC bot though
Well itās tongue and cheek a bit
externals and group protection would also be tools I think should fall in the tank role
Safeguard and easy access to disrupting shout would be a good start. Preferably without having to combine it with AoE taunt.
whether that comes from locking down packs, to reducing incoming damage to whatever
oh, and bring AA back

Yeah having robust options to help your party members
