and no its poison

#

you can do something along those lines

#

pull 2 i just a chain pull

#

once 1 naturalist is dead

#

just get the other one in

#

same with stingers

#

ah pull 5 and 7 is also wrong

#

but you get the gist

I bet when Nome goes in to EB he just randomly pulls big ass packs til the end and this is just a representation of what he thinks a sane person would pull

compact palm
#

I mean both are correct

echo egret
#

@strong forum are you really pulling trash+2nd boss with pull 9 ??

primal pelican
#

10 flowers is pretty standard tho if you grab more i isuually see the plants in pull 5 over the caster pack

#

tho this is with vdh where you can misery and they'll comei n late

#

wait i read the numbers wrong

#

yeah you can pull that trash pack when its just the caster bolt caster left

#

he doesnt have aggro and doesnt really do anything

covert flower
#

that's a bug right

#

my tank's shield block uptime was not 19% right

#

somebody tell me that it's not true

compact palm
#

He was going for the heal parse

#

🧠

covert flower
#

wait

#

his battle shout uptime

#

Oh my

strong forum
#

you chain the pull onto the last remaining boss mob, yes

Shieldblock is wasted rage :^)

"its a waste of rage" yes context lol

lusty tiger
#

Why would you shield block as a shield tank

#

That’s why you have a shield equipped

#

It does all the blocking

#

You do all the rocking

You guys think 10.2.6 coming on Tuesday? 8 hour extended maintenance

#

I think it’s happening

lusty tiger
#

I hope

warm plinth
#

I'd be kind of surprised. Like not that the patch would be happening at this time, but that they wouldn't announce it at all

blazing condor
#

Epic Games also had to do extended maintenance

#

theyre up to 12 hours extended now

I mean they said it would be a surprise and seems it really will be

#

Fortnite crossover wasn’t that in some data mining a while back

I could actually see it happening

#

I don't have nearly enough brain cells to play a regular fps very well, much less one where i have to spastically build and destroy walls while doing it

blazing condor
#

Its not for everyone

#

But its a good game

#

Nowdays its not even just a BR its like a huge sandbox game where u can do whatever

#

But every franchise u know is also in it for whatever reason

warm plinth
#

🤑

lusty grotto
#

well not for whatever reason

#

its advertisement

#

plus some extra cash on cosmetics for both epic and whatever is being crossed-over

violet flume
#

ive had my first "elite dps" tell me waht to do every pull and how to pull. Just like reddit says

#

dude also died the most out of everyone which is very satisfying

#

that lmao was very cathartic for me

lusty grotto
#

skip bear singular?

#

or did he mean the double bears

violet flume
#

double

#

i just pulled it cause i didnt want to change my route

#

i figure it involves invis pot

lusty grotto
#

well yeah why would you pull that on fort

#

you can leap it

#

you dont need invis pot

#

rest of the group either lock portals, evoker rescues mount or invis pots / shrouds / mass invis

violet flume
#

wouldve been invis pot as we had none of these

#

its a +20 pug and i dont even know if everyone has pots so idk

#

does make sense to skip for relevant high keys

lusty grotto
#

well people skip them on my alt vault keys so

#

and they are usuall 18-20

#

but if you have the dps, you probably dont need to do it i guess?

#

otherwise they are a waste of time

#

and a big heal check

#

if they healer feels comfy enough doing them and you can down them fast - and it shouldn't be hard considering DHT's timer in that range - then sure you can do them

violet flume
#

ill keep that in mind

#

i never really looked optimal routes that much and ive never had anyone complain so lol

#

that pack not being skipped annoyed the hell out of him cause his other comments about me were not related to me at all lmao

lusty grotto
#

yeah he was obnoxious about it tbh

#

also dryads dont heal flowers

#

keepers do

violet flume
#

ya

#

later he said "sorry im tired"

#

told him to relax his fingers next time

warm plinth
#

Wouldn't be so fuckin tired if you'd shut up

lusty grotto
#

honestly not the worst pug in the world

warm plinth
#

🙂

lusty grotto
#

especially if he finished

#

and you timed or completed

#

there are much worse pugs

warm plinth
lusty grotto
#

i barely look at chat anyway

#

but the worst are the ones that insta leave on wipes on easily timeable keys

#

scratch that

#

that insta dc

#

like last week i did a 24 WCM?

#

25 actually

#

rsham decided to invis pot to the left instead of up the stairs

#

insta agroed runeweaver

#

left

#

err d/cd

#

like it was minute 2 at the most

#

could have been rezzed

#

on a waycrest

#

those are truly the worst ones

violet flume
#

i did a waycrest +20

#

healer died on pig boss

#

we had like 18-20mins remaing on timer

#

we decided to push more, we had 2 people who could spec heals if needed but we kept them dps in case heale came back

#

mage died right before lady waycrest and left too

#

why leave a timeable key

#

at any rate its really rare not to time a +20 i feel

#

s1/s2 it was way more common

lusty grotto
#

yeah those are the ones that suck

#

but i do agree it was more common on earlier seasons

violet flume
#

s1 it was so hard to get into pugs and +20s would fail 2-3x before id time it

#

i think algethar was the worst

lusty grotto
#

oh shit ghash

#

i forgot, did you want to raid mythic tonight seriously?

violet flume
#

its the only +20 i didnt time with 0 wipes

lusty grotto
#

we might have a spot tomorrow for dps if you want

#

hmm

#

AA without wipes that's weird

#

routing issue maybe?

#

or not enough dps

violet flume
#

dont remember, couldve been both

lusty grotto
#

ah

violet flume
#

i was pretty wussy about pulling big

lusty grotto
#

so uhh AA has some tricks

violet flume
#

now i realize my pull size limit is how much dps can survive

lusty grotto
#

like the last mobs that did the whirlwinds

#

if you pull huge

#

and keep them up the stairs

#

melee can just take 2-3 steps down and they never get hit by the whirlwind

violet flume
#

azure vault frogs rooms tho that was some big puls

lusty grotto
#

cause its z-axis damage

violet flume
#

thats nice to know

#

ill use that trick if it comes back in s4

lusty grotto
#

well if it hasnt been changed, that is hehe

violet flume
#

wonder if theyll just do all 8 initial DF dungeons

#

id prefer 8 oldschool dungeons for more portals heh

lusty grotto
#

im willing to be it'll be a 10 dungeon season with dawn

#

but we'll see

violet flume
#

id be so unhyped

#

kinda dumb portals are my goal for seasons genrally

#

then i mess around with alts

lusty grotto
#

thats not kinda dumb

violet flume
#

then again i never use them outside of M+ lol

lusty grotto
#

if thats what youre into, its good

violet flume
#

might try some higher keys next season

#

but i feel its pointless unless i wanna push high with an organized group

maiden ravine
#

good to know you can time 18 DHT with 20+ deaths

lusty grotto
#

should be doable

maiden ravine
#

Never seen a MW monk die so many times

hardy snow
#

I have today rogue left on BRH+23 because "we didnt gave him autohammer for repair" (he was yelling for it and then left).
Plot twist is that he was worst in team, had less interrupts than anyone other dps or me as tank and people (mostly him) was dying usually due to not interrupted casts and... we put him autohammer like 1min earlier when he first asked, and later told him again about it keks

lusty grotto
#

lol

maiden ravine
#

trying to finally finish 2500

#

given the season ends soonTM

lusty grotto
#

we're still like 5 weeks away

#

they said mid spring

#

so probably around April 16 for fated season

grim pilot
#

I hope its may

#

so we get another batch of good m+ weeks

violet flume
#

i timed my 20 DHT with 20 deaths and 2:30 to spare so ya

#

like 3 full wipes

maiden ravine
#

nah, May is likely 10.2.7

#

and s4 comes before that

#

April 16th is a fine guess, gives some time for alpha maybe

hardy snow
#

they wanted to keep same pace for patches and seasons, so its probably half of May

lusty grotto
#

well

#

we will see

#

either way im fine with both

maiden ravine
#

No, s4 specifically comes before 10.2.7 which is likely the May content given the expac comes out in Septemer it appears

maiden ravine
#

Tanking keys this season sucks so hard

#

I feel so uselss to save the team on warrior

violet flume
#

yeah warrior doesnt have much utility in helping the group

#

the one thing i miss from warrior when playing other tanks alts is the amount of raw CC

#

shockwave, shield charge, stormbolt, aoe fear, thats a lot of hard CC. Lots of stun DR however.. I don't think it compares to prot paladin but it is what it is

#

also warrior feels tankier than my druid and paladin

maiden ravine
#

just being able to help with afflicted and incorp on monk, plus easy access to self poison/disease cleanse feels so good

violet ginkgo

yep. sadge

tribal wharf
#

someone that types during game every single line like every 2 seconds

#

tank every 1-3 minute explains "we are going to do this and this" different

#

you will make your life hell by existing near that person for any amount of time, hes clearly toxic

#

hes toxic AND dumb, mostly dumb i would say, maybe hes a kid, its gotta be a kid, way they talk

#

but hes got problems it would seem lmao

primal pelican
#

Is there any dungeon where you swap into Shattering throw?

dusky canopy
#

I wouldnt bother

lyric cape
#

And since its a cast you can't parry block or dodge during

viscid lake
#

Is it possible have 100% shield Block uptime?

dusky canopy
#

yes

#

200% with all the talents

#

(meme)

viscid lake
#

I mean, is it pr was it joke? 😂😂

tribal wharf
#

if you play very well its possible to block 100% of melees and 95%+ of spells

#

most of us wont play that well, at least not consistantly

warm plinth
#

And no, it is not possible to block 95%+ of spells. You'd need Spell Block to have 100% uptime for that.

tribal wharf
#

kicks and such no

#

blockable spells right

warm plinth
#

You don't have Spell Block 100% of the time

#

It has 25% uptime

#

if used on CD

tribal wharf
#

ya, well if you kick and reflect properly you could probably get a high % of them to hit during spell block windows

#

i dunno lol

#

would be a weird science experiment

warm plinth
#

Regardless of any of that, it's inaccurate to tell someone that you can block 95%+ of spells, especially with no further context.

#

Especially when you say it right next to "its possible to block 100% of melees" which is true

tribal wharf
#

is when your team is echo and LOS's every single bolt and kicks everyone of thme and kicks /reflects spell block window is perfectly managed by team

warm plinth
#

@ionic fern hi ily

tribal wharf
#

did more wcm with a, assuming fury warrior, told him "basically reflect on cd this dungeon, big dmg"

#

i think thats true, i didnt check to see how much he had reflected for at the end though

warm plinth
#

The on CD part probably not because you don't always get targeted with things in every pull, but on first pull and any of the casting witches, yes

#

Etch is also huge damage

tribal wharf
#

i wasnt sure if you can reflect the infected thorns or not cuz it has RNG target who it goes on

warm plinth
#

You can but you'd have to see if the mob is targeting you ofc

#

Or hm, maybe it's not? Reflect guide says no, but it only mentions the mobs in witches room, not the other witches in the courtyard

tribal wharf
#

many of the various base types of witches do a basic bolt you can reflect

viscid lake
#

Is Reflect only once Per reflected ability or Can you reflect infinite as Long as it is up?

grim pilot
#

once

#

and yes, your dr stays once you reflect 1 ability

viscid lake
#

Ok but only 1 spell per cast?

grim pilot
#

so yes

#

once per spell cast

#

you cast reflect - you can reflect 1 ability only

#

unless they're synchronised

#

then you can reflect all at once

viscid lake
#

Ty

grim pilot
#

but if you have 1 bolt on you then another one 1 sec after, you will only reflect first one

#

so sometimes the trick is to hold your sr till last second

warm plinth

although most of the damage there

is from casters

so if you do your pulls around 1 caster

which you can single-handedly control

you should be fine

u should be wearing sandglass and rezan

It doesnt

#

And if you are finding it is procing a lot even tho it can only proc once or twice a key it is likely u are doing somthing incorrectly

#

Mistakes happen but in content outside of the toptop stuff they can be convered by better play

#

If u want to runa defensive trinket i suggest getting a rageheart it give far more defensive value than stonescale

  1. ask your group to focus more on adds, boss dmg isnt relevant when adds are up
  2. remember its not only dot from adds that can hurt, biggest issue is tankbuster, not hits itself, but the debuff it gives you, it increase other dmg you get in this fight, that includes: big aoe before people run away to drop puddle, adds spawning, small aoe which is from, if I remember correctly, not interrupted big add, all these things separately or even combined but without debuff arent much harmful for tank, but all of it combined with debuff after tankbuster and some dot stacks can actually start hurting
tribal wharf

its not hard really

All of those things can be solved by going to the casino

Hey everyone, I am a returning wow player, almost 2 months now... playing prot warrior 482 ilvl, and last night in heroic I learned my dps is terrible... I am having trouble with uptime, and cooldowns, I also don't get enough shield slams in I think... Is this the place to ask for help?

warm plinth
#

Yes

#

Do you have logs?

hoary gate
#

Same name- Drudgep

#

I looked through it for the first time, didn't know they were a thing lol

warm plinth
#
  • You're playing the wrong talent build.
  • Your overall casts per minute is crazy low.
  • Revenge should absolutely never be your #1 button pressed.
  • Take Whirlwind off your bar and throw it into the abyss.
  • Use your offensive cooldowns (including Demoralizing Shout) on cooldown. I cannot stress this enough. You have 1 cast of Avatar (~35 sec CD after cooldown reduction) in a 3:23 fight.
  • Follow the priority: Shield Slam>Thunder Clap>Revenge - you should not press Revenge if either of the other two are available. If you will overcap rage (happens a lot during CDs), use Ignore Pain to dump it. We do not care about overcapping Ignore Pain.
  • Shield Block should be kept up 100% of the time, even if not tanking. It's your #1 mitigation while tanking, and it grants 30% bonus damage to Shield Slam.
hoary gate
#

Thank you- I've updated my talent tree this morning

#

Not sure why my CPM is so low, also is there a weak aura or something that puts my cooldowns off to the side so I know which ones are up?

#

Also, I didn't know shield block helps with DPS

echo egret
#

Any other spell on the GCD comes before Revenge : demo shout, dragon roar, ravager, shield charge…

hoary gate
echo egret
#

That’s totally up to you, there are several weak aura packs out here

warm plinth
#

You can get the Afenar weakaura suite and then trim it down to what you need

#

I wouldn't keep the whole thing; he tends to put too much in there

#

but his are really easy to customize

echo egret
#

I am personally just having my bars below my characters and I’m used to see when these CDs are available

#

I can also recommend varying the alerts : some visual ones, some audio ones…

warm plinth
#

Yeah, too many of either and you end up ignoring them

echo egret
#

You should be dumping a lot of rage in IP, I suggest have one finger for that button and only that.

#

(Since I t’s off the gcd)

hoary gate
#

Does ignore pain help with Fervid bite?

echo egret
#

Yes, it has a very high chance of proccing

#

It’s an overall loop of spending-generating tons of rage

hoary gate
#

OK, I think that is also what I was missing, when I got too much rage, I was spamming revenge instead of IP- but revenge is on the GCD so I was not able to use shield slam

#

among other things

echo egret
#

Revenge spam is not a thing this season (and same in Season 4 since we’ll have the same tier set)

warm plinth
#

We've never spammed Revenge

#

At least not since the Vengeance talent existed and we actually ran it, which wasn't for very long

#

even then we alternated between Revenge and IP

hoary gate
#

Gotcha, thanks for all the help... do you know what DPS and what training dummy I should be able to pull

echo egret
#

Wasn’t there a time in SL ?

hoary gate
#

I was just pulling 55K on Dugeoneer's dummy in pvp area - and that is up from 45K from before you helped me

#

both of you

echo egret
#

Training on a target dummy helps with muscle memory

hoary gate
#

yup- do you know what should I be shooting for dps wise on a dummy?

echo egret
#

Me ? No I don’t know, although a good sim will tell you that.

hoary gate
#

oh, ok like raidbots

#

Thank you @echo egret and @warm plinth

blazing condor
#

you spammed revenge in SL

#

especially if you did non-push keys with seismic reverb

#

but even with reprisal you'd dump rage into revenge

#

then when banner came you obviously opted into spamming IP more to dump rage but you had so much rage gen by that point you would spam IP and revenge to not overcap anyway

foggy lynx
#

any marcos you guys suggest?

Is 16 a tier that gets me good gear in mythic + dungeons?

is it like 15-19?

warm plinth
#

17 is the highest track obtainable from M+

marble oasis

whats the lowest

warm plinth
#

16 is the first level that gives you aspect crests but it still gives champion gear

marble oasis
#

so are there specific videos for 16s

warm plinth
#

I'm sure you can probably find videos for them but idk how much you're gonna learn from it

#

It doesn't take a pro to do a 16

marble oasis

i tried to youtube didnt see any i was hold to do BRH, thinks its just everything the same but u need to interupt spirits

chilly brook
marble oasis
#

are keys a better value i usaully just join

chilly brook

Like nothing really changes from a 15 to a 16

marble oasis

ooo

chilly brook

Or a 12 to a 16

#

Things just hit harder

blazing condor

yeah its the same dungeons

and mechanics

#

just scales

warm plinth
#

well 12 to 16 you get an extra affix

at 14

marble oasis
#

ooo okay guess interupts just become more important

#

not that things change

chilly brook
#

Yeah more damage means mechanics matter more

But it’s the same exact mechanic

461 should be good enough

ilvl gear for 16 should be fine right

Is this actually right icy veins told me versaltiltiy ius better then crit

hardy snow
#

they are very close, its better to sim yourself to see your particular situation

marble oasis
#

i would think verwailtiy

#

makes healing me easier

warm plinth
#

No, it doesn't

#

It costs a shit ton of versatility to reduce damage taken by any significant amount

#

MEanwhile crit will increase your parry which reduces a lot of damage intake in M+

marble oasis
#

okay

#

WE BOYCOTT ICY VEINS

warm plinth
#

Don't do that lol

hardy snow
#

in theory vers is better defensively in raid, because things that hurts us aren't able to parry, but its also not big diff, so its better to just gear for dmg, leech will compensate such small difference

strong forum
#

Read the fine print

#

Not just the blatant list

waxen frigate
lusty grotto

versa has higher prio

#

1 being highest prio

#

5 being lowest

also

#

both icy veins and wowhead are written by our mods

lower number = higher prio

warm plinth

That's from the wowhead guide; the icy-veins guide is the one he's saying has them the other way around

Between a dwarf and human what is best for making a warrior?

grim pilot
#

dwarf for tank

#

human dps

lusty grotto
#

for ultra competitive, you wanna go dwarf or NE

#

otherwise human is fine

grim pilot
#

y ne is currently bis in m+

#

but human owns in wm

compact kettle
#

Yeah tanking is not really my thing

grim pilot
#

you're asking in prot channel

#

u know that

#

xd

lusty grotto
#

oh

#

well go troll or human, you cant go wrong with either

compact kettle
#

Okay cool good to know

grim pilot
#

but unless you wanna go play at a high level

#

it's always gonna be better to play whatever you wanna look at the most

lusty grotto
#

but yes this is the prot channel we are mostly tanks in here

grim pilot
#

people are concerned with races and such too much

#

and then end up doing 20's

#

or pushing 23's

compact kettle
#

Yeah I probably shouldnt be too concerned with races lol

#

I heard unless im pushing world first its not a big deal idk how true that is

jagged gust
#

Sometimes you just like to have the biggest numbers, and race comes down to that last 0.1% of damage

#

Sometimes the goal is to beat someone in your own guild

#

Race does technically impact your DPS, like a troll over a vulpera is something like 6-7k4.5k gain DPS (in arms)

waxen quarry
#

6-7k is a fuck ton

#

i wish it wasnt that way honestly

jagged gust
#

yeah vulpera is ass for damage

marble oasis
#

I always thought Tauren was the coolest warrior race so great

waxen quarry
#

i wish they didnt look shit

#

(my warrior is tauren)

grim pilot
#

high content when things start getting oneshotty

#

if you're not playing properly or on some specs playing extra vers/avoi

#

but yeah first and foremost I would look at the races and decide which you wanna play

#

if its close between a couple of them

#

you can ask in specific channel (this is for tanks so) which one is better for dps and/or how big of a diff it is

#

and that could seal the deal

#

but yeah, essentially you're supposed to like playing the race you chose

#

I wouldnt wanna be a fucking cow 24/7

compact kettle
#

Okay cool ill keep that in mind!

#

Thanks!

@ionic fern I just found out this part of the icy-veins guide is obsolete :

echo egret
#

I also noticed that in the stats section :

#

But nowhere else is an explanation of the link between AP and IP ?

#

Does higher attack power provide faster filling of the IP bar each press ?

ionic fern
echo egret
#

Damn WoW guides are becoming so complex they should follow the same procedure as scientific articles : peer review, etc !

grim pilot
#

Not the maximum IP

#

But ip you get with each use

#

Unless arms and prot have 2 different formulas (doubt)

ionic fern
#

As i said, i'll look into it after work - then i can read the full section of what i've written there instead of 2 lines out of context.

Could be through the Brutal Vitality talent.

opal forum
#

hi guys, is this route still fine in +25? Or should i do a different one?

#

(im only playing with pug)

ionic fern
#

13/15 is a waste of time.

#

Consider pulling near the first area instead since you can chain onto "mini-bosses" and first boss.

#

And then skip pack 13 & 15.

grim pilot
#

On higher keys people tend to go morchie first, so if you plan on killing one kill the first one (although you can skip just by walking by iirc on all classes

#

and then invis pot pack 15 and completely avoid interaction with pull 13

#

this is the route for 29 as a reference point

#

Dont follow it blindly just wanted to show you how the route changes with key levels

opal forum
#

based on both ur comments i made the route like this

#

i guess this is better like that?, also, i know i can skip the 3 consecutive packs before Anduin

#

but is any of chromie's packs skipeable without potions?

opal forum
ionic fern
grim pilot
#

I myself am a warrior so I didnt really need to test it

#

but if you want to be absolutely sure

#

then get rogue/warlock/priest

opal forum
#

you just leap on that one?

#

ive never encounter that pack, thats why im asking

ionic fern
#

As a warrior you can, yes.

opal forum
#

i dont know this spot of the dungeon ahah

ionic fern
#

But your group needs some way to skip as well.

#

Hense the Warlock/Rogue/Priest requirement.

opal forum
#

ok you cant just walk by ok ok

ionic fern
#

Nope.

opal forum
#

thanks for the info guys

grim pilot
#

you can walk by the first

#

But like I've mentioned I've never tested it myself as there was no need

compact palm
#

Well u can sit in the Lil corner by the stingrays and wait for them to path

#

Then walk by

grim pilot
#

we're talking about chromie

#

not battlefield

compact palm
#

Same thing there for north pack

blazing condor
#

i think we walk skipped once

#

but its like stupid tight

grim pilot
opal forum
grim pilot
#

well

#

I wont expect you to pull with boss in 25

#

its fine without

#

but I would split pull 4

#

and chain it to other pulls

opal forum
#

im ok about it

#

my issue is

#

the pack next to the begining of the dungeon

#

im assuming someone else go tag it for you?

grim pilot
#

you can do so yourself

#

just tell them to hold off dps

opal forum
#

seems like a shitload of running

grim pilot
#

I would take the faraway pack in pull 4

#

and take it with the maiden

#

and then the mages chain to sentinel

#

when sentinel mages die

#

25 is key level where you're super fine going the big guy instead of the maiden first

#

to have "effective" bl

#

2 key levels higher you'd want to go maiden first because she really starts to hurt

opal forum
#

yeah by prepoting

grim pilot
#

ye

#

27 is like the perfect key level for that

#

28 is where you want to do the first pull like I showed

#

but dont think about that

#

your route with minor adjustments is more than good for 25

#

if executed properly

#

im fully finished with bolt gun now otside of have to wait for youtube to get id so i can put better thumbnails up

already have the thumnails made for the most part

wait

pull 3

is mostly chain

opal forum

ooh thank you

#

yeah you wait for the magus to die?

grim pilot

ye

#

just make sure you know your %

opal forum
#

and on maiden as well right

grim pilot
#

before going to morchie

opal forum
#

you kill maiden magus first

grim pilot
#

I'm not a tank main

opal forum
#

then you go get that pack

grim pilot
#

so I dont really know

#

and I just go for overkill in weekly 20's

#

for maiden

#

you can either go insta maiden and ask 1 guy to take the pack

#

or grab it yourself and then go maiden

opal forum
#

ok ok

grim pilot
#

though be wary of the patrol

#

there is 1 mage patrolling

#

with the pack you want to grab

opal forum
#

ok ok this seems much cleaner ill try that

#

i somehow never had a rise key past 18 in fortified (i only run my own keys cuz prot war life)

#

and now i have a 25

#

and i want those big rio numbers

#

but havent played that dungeon for weeks on fortified

anyway, thank you ill try that

rise 18?

not a 1 to 1 copy plz

so just pick what you like

tribal wharf

make it slightly different at least

compact palm

Make it give u a small heal per thing removed or something

Tbh as long as it removes the same debuffs anything else is a bonus

tribal wharf
#

clears 1 thing the alliance version doesnt clear, or similiar change, youd have to be really nerdy to take notice and or get mad i mean

plush tendon
#

I mean, Dark Iron and Normal Dwarf both have the same cleanse effect on their racials

compact palm
#

Also breaks stuns

#

Because why not

tribal wharf
#

human break stun is the most over powered racial in the game as any spec besides tank specs

plush tendon
#

Ill be shockd if Earthen isnt the same thing

tribal wharf
#

stun is your alive and cant do shit, your literally in time out

#

and human, you get out of it instantly

plush tendon
#

for reduced stun duration

tribal wharf
#

well for constant barrage of stun, ya, orc

#

for ocassional stun, huiman

plush tendon

Human has three really good racials: 2% gains on all stats, 10% rep gains, and stun break

waxen frigate
compact palm

How often u do waycrest

tribal wharf

but still i cannot sing it highly enough from the very tip of the highest peak of the highest mountain in the universe

especially in combat if there is like fires on the ground or shit beind casted

Dwarf vs nelf is just a matter of season

Nelf is more useful right now

dwarf one is good too but i feel like you can just have a better healer/cleansing dpsers

plush tendon

skipping entire mechanics in multiple dungeons

tribal wharf
#

to be fair okay you guys i want to yogi tells a story about this thing we are talking about currently its semi related

#

back in bfa, i was attempting play my hunter, and they wanted me to take the, i forget, camo? but it makes you stand still in combat and your invis and you regen hp, and someone told me to take it

#

must have sat there for like,3 days, re-reading it trying to figure out wtf, didnt like using it at all, never understood it when i did use it

#

and its like, ne is even more complicated than that cuz you cant be in combat at all or something?

#

its like, why the hell would i ever make my toon ne cuz of that

#

this is on top of i already have a bias against playing vulpera night elfs and gnomes

lusty tiger
#

Nelf tank, dwarf dps rn seems to be pretty nice

waxen frigate
#

LOTS of Dps prefer nelf

#

Because you can negate key mechanics with it

plush tendon
#

they are both pretty good in their own right

#

but compared to all other racials.... they be kind of busted

#

explain to me again why Blood Elves cant have a 2min silence?

compact palm
#

Pvp

#

Also look at nightborne

#

3min cd slow xd

yea, but if you are gonna play nightborne... just play nelf

nelfs look better

Racials should be cosmetic not game play warping

I want to be nelf with the maev set

its a nice set

It's wild to me that I chose that over stoneform

the only time where that doesnt apply is if you are doing world first level keys

Yeah just feels bad knowing I could just have a giga cooldown

#

I have a Dwarf Warrior; I like Dwarf warrior, but I do sometimes want to race change to human for mog

winged slate
#

But instead I look cool

plush tendon
#

but also, I want a Dwarf toon and Warrior is the only one that works for me

winged slate
#

I don't like the short races for mog so I never play any of them

plush tendon
#

Human DK, Blood Elf Pal, Dwarf War, Nelf DH

winged slate
#

Even though dark iron racial is giga

plush tendon
#

Normal is better

#

but Dark Iron looks really cool

compact palm
#

Moving faster indoors is sick True and real

#

The real racial

plush tendon
#

I like normal dwarf cause its a bit more viking like

#

and my dwarf is named Bjorn

winged slate
#

Dark Iron gives you main stat if you cleanse stuff which is pog

plush tendon
#

normal dwarf just gives 2% crit dam passive

#

which ends up being stronger overall; but dark iron do have mole machine

compact palm
#

2% movespeed>2% crit dmg we are not the same

plush tendon
#

its 4% indoors I think

compact palm
#

Even better

winged slate
#

I never go outside

So that's 4% all the time
