either way all I care about is playing the custom mode

#

its a good way to play when youre bored

vital sinew
#

It murdered a good portion of old custom campaigns on hiveworkshop and required a pirate workaround. Otherwise you can still play with the old artstyle and the extra camera zoom out is nice.

yip ok, was wondering if there was a way to remove the bleed

south zealot

if youre a dwarf

if you have evoker in the group

ah so an evoker can do it?

south zealot

yeah they can remove a bleed every minute

the mythic battle of dazar'alor looks really nice too, but you kinda need the legion mage tower weapon and shield transmog to make it really work

if im rage cap and ignore pain has full uptime/ is in full use, should I not use shield slam and just revenge thunderclap?

even if its capped

use shield slam on cooldown always

Read the anger management talent. ๐Ÿ™‚

south zealot
#

anger management talent

#

more rage spent gives you more cdr on avatar, more avatar is more damage and thunderclaps, more thunderclaps is more rage and shield slam procs, more shield slam procs is more rage and more rage spent is more cdr on avatar

#

not to mention those 2 talents makes your shield wall about a minute cd

queen hemlock
#

im not sure if the thing is there anymore
but there was something that made it so that if you spend rage (especially on IP)
you get more shieldslam reset
=/= more rage
more damage
more set bleed faster

also make sure you have gholak ๐Ÿ™‚

south zealot

i have it on normal

#

probably good enough to greed anvil right

pallid quiver
# worn sand when going into a pack

SS, Thunderclap, DPS while you're gathering should get ready to ramp off the mob you shield slammed

if they don't they're attempting to commit suicide

On not the very first pull, it can also help to leave like a last mob back there for DPS to tunnel on while you gather the next pack

spell block

btw

unborn wagon

That boss specifically>?

#

Surprised we don't take disrupting shout, also spell block works against a melee attack?

his attack is magic buffed

unborn wagon

it's his giant magic attacks that destroy me

thats why he hurts

I am spamming IP like no tomorrow but drop once SR+Demo shout wear off

strong forum

yes

#

so use spellblock ^^

unborn wagon
#

Ahh okay, the build on Archon doesn't take it

pallid quiver
#

that's why you don't blindly copy things from archon

on top of that, the build i'm seeing on archon does, in fact, take spell block default

onyx vessel
#

"Top builds" keksquad those top players who run with a team they ran with for a long time who know how to properly play there classes unlike the pugs you go in with

#

Don't need spell block dmg loss keks

pallid quiver
#

i can't even find a version that doesn't have spell block

onyx vessel
#

Wtf

#

That's dumb to not use sidearm

pallid quiver
#

It's more popular to have sidearm over titanic, but the highest key done was with titanic throw over sidearm according to it, so

onyx vessel
#

Whats the other option bolster

pallid quiver
#

what other option

onyx vessel
#

For spell block

pallid quiver
#

there

isn't any that it recommends

#

for any dungeon

strong forum
#

decent numbers for nokhud

pallid quiver
#

It does mention that like 8% of talent builds have picked up bolster or bloodborne, but

onyx vessel
#

Bloodborne requires 2

pallid quiver
#

The implication theree is they're moving a second point from somewhere else

#

Again, there isn't any particular data on that as a whole tree because people aren't clearing higher keys with those selected

pallid quiver
strong forum
#

eh they didnt do that much damage

#

almost 300k for nokhud 11

south zealot
#

spell block is pretty much locked in all keys

#

besides aa

strong forum
#

theres very little reason not to run spellblock

pallid quiver
#

yeah but if they did 2 dps, that's a lotta wind blasts and electro blasts rejected

strong forum
#

the dmg gain is miniscule

#

unless you go full 2xbb

#

at which point you sacrifice something else

south zealot
#

yeah its literally just for aa damage

#

other dungeons i feel like have sections where spell block is just too much value

#

i guess nokhud you could drop as well but no real reason

strong forum
#

all magic dmg in that key is avoidable in nokhud ye

#

but again

#

no real reason to just pick up TaN

#

and disrupting shout is nice on last boss

#

just tested it

#

and i legit couldnt tell a difference if bloodsurge existed or not

Disrupting is a staple in my m+ build

onyx vessel

I use HR over into the fray dropping +2 seconds on shield block for disrupting

strong forum
#

does that work?

#

cuz

#

only having 6s SB

#

reduces the value of HR

#

SIGNIFICANTLY

onyx vessel
#

๐Ÿค”

strong forum
#

if every single SB you gain

#

is by default 8seconds long

#

you get alot more opportunity to extend said SB

#

via HR

onyx vessel
#

I have about 86% uptime on shield block

strong forum
#

its not just 33% its literal exponential uptime gain

#

to have HR + ED

onyx vessel

With just HR

i have 97%

with ITF and ED

With HR ED it's 96

sounds like you need more haste

#

it's me, i need more haste

What do you drop for disrupting

pallid quiver

haste is almost my lowest stat; it only beats mastery by 6 rating

dats me i need more haste

Mastery stacking prot warriors what is this legion

thats my stats rn

onyx vessel
#

With into the fray

strong forum
#

without

pallid quiver
#

you really should work on your reading comprehension; that's like the third time you read the wrong thing

Since I mentioned haste is almost my lowest stat, that means the stat it beats is my lowest stat. That would be mastery, with the second part of that statement.

strong forum
#

this is with full ITF stacks

south zealot

how do you have so much stats

just in general

onyx vessel

My mastery is 26%

dreadplate > fyrakk ?

strong forum
#

id say so

south zealot
#

aoe dummy?

strong forum
#

they both fullfil different purposes

#

dreadplate gives you a 15sec safetynet of low dmg intake and does REALLY good damage

#

fyrakk gives you a short but big absorb, so its better for large hits

#

with mediocre dmg output

south zealot
#

no mainstat

#

badge

strong forum
#

ye

#

like for m+ and big pulls, dreadplates is infinitely superior to rageheart

south zealot
#

a lot of the top streaming players are buying fyrakk and im not really sure why

#

i guess just bc it was good last season its automatically good again but theres 3 seasons of trinkets available

strong forum
#

cuz rageheart big on the meter

#

and it was best last season

#

and dreadplates wasnt used in s2

#

dreadplates doesnt show up on the meter and is REALLY not obvious how it works

#

so its hard to convince people otherwise

#

look at what people made a roar about tome

#

even tho its 80% useless pad damage

#

but it looked HUGE on the dmg meter

pallid quiver
#

It's very notable in comparison to dreadplates, as well, because you press it and HOLY SHIT I'M TANK

south zealot
#

i guess people just really underestimate how imporatant mainstat is

#

even though its like always emphasized

#

hard to see the value just by looking on details

strong forum
#

people alwayas underestimate mainstat

#

cuz mainstat doesnt show up on details

#

but big bar does

#

and also if you sim uncapped trinket on 10 targets it looks good over taking trinket that is capped to 5 targets or less

pallid quiver
#

damage breakdowns were a mistake smh

strong forum
#

theyre alright

#

or rather

#

theyre extremely good to figuring things out

#

if you have knowledge beyond only looking at a bar

#

and can evaluate given data properly

unborn wagon
#

Disrupting shout worth dropping Bloodsurge for?

strong forum
#

if you make proper use of it, it can prove very good yes

#

i just played a key without bloodsurge and i legit couldnt tell the lack of bloodsurge

lusty grotto
#

yeah i havent had bloodsurge since s1

#

idk

#

i dont feel it

kind glen
#

I also haven't felt the loss of Bloodsurge has hurt me too hard. Probably should have dropped it earlier

lusty grotto
#

well maybe since s2

unborn wagon
#

Also, I am lazy, having beeh pushing every class to 3k, I often play easier builds, I prefer heavy repro, will that hinder me from getting 3k?

lusty grotto

probably not

you can cobble together a random build

Actually intrigued by bsl lol

So.... I used my last catalyst charge because I got hero track legs (had veteran track tier). I proceeded to loot hero gloves with leech and hero chest with avoidance today...

lusty grotto
#

its fine you get a charge tomorrow

#

and even then a myth track piece is better than a hero with tertiaries

#

especially one with a useless tertirary like avoidance

unborn wagon
#

So leech should be my first charge! I have 2 champion and 2 hero pieces now.

lusty grotto

meh

we're not in bfa

leech isnt THAT much better

myth piece > leech

pallid quiver
#

god, it makes me feel something every time I check healing after a key, and see I'm number 1 on the healer's healed targets list

and then i check the breakdown and 80% of it was overhealing

gives me a heart attack every time

flint tiger
#

Is Seal oif Diurna's chosen still #2 boullion choice for M+ focused players?

pallid quiver
#

Depends more on what drops you're getting, but it's the best ring for that slot since it's free damage

#

You may get more immediate returns off a trinket, but you can get any trinket that does damage and be fine enough

#

there's no ring that suddenly starts blasting people

flint tiger
#

hmm ok, debating between it and like rageheart or some other trinket. getting high ilvl raid trinkets are pretty much impossible for me to make the time to do

pallid quiver
#

Rageheart would be like a 6th pick, anyhow

#

It's outdone defensively in every situation by Treemouth, which is M+ farmable, and almost every situation defensively by Enduring Dreadplates

#

If you can't get any raid trinkets at all, whatsoever, I'd recommend grabbing Anvil for your coins, since it adds a lot over the course of a run and is a lot easier to maintain than Signet or anything else

#

We also aren't particularly starving for defense, either, until you even think of going past 10s. We're still not even lacking in particular then, either

flint tiger
#

guess long-term wise, diurna's chosen would still be the right move if i wanna go past 10s?

#

no idea how high i'll realistically get, but i've done 9s and they've seemed fine so far with no 4pc tier and only 498 ilvl

onyx vessel
#

Hey dreadplates does more dmg then anvil

#

And it's a tank trinket

south zealot
#

atleast my dreadplates vs nomers anvil

onyx vessel
south zealot
#

anvil also does more important damage anyways

#

so exclusively offense, anvil is best bc its turbo prio damage

pallid quiver
#

I got anvil because I wanted a different trinket to start with

south zealot
#

but yeah either way those are 2 insanely good trinkegs

onyx vessel
#

Just run Anvil and dreadplates

south zealot

thatโ€™s my plan

onyx vessel

Anvil is strong for all specs

south zealot

for sure

onyx vessel
#

Good choice

pallid quiver

remember kids, checking logs saves lives in M+ recruitment

Saw a tank with no history, was like, "Sure, I'll give 'em a shot if logs back them up"

No history tho how would you know you test them?

the tank i got was good, but the DPS couldn't press defensives

so chargath murdered them

literally every set of chains

Why you posting a loli eh bud

Yeah dps are bad at using defensive if you see a warrior dying to I didn't have one left

Our healer did not have fun on the 14 we did yesterday where DPS'ers broke 3 together.

the tank and i just duo'd the boss until I just couldn't keep myself up eventually

At least you guys duod with a DPS + a tank.
I had to duo the first boss of Brackenhide with an Augmentation Evoker.

hey guys, recently got into tanking on warrior and in general, how do you guys generally know what routes to go? i find myself feeling a bit overwhelmed and anxious thinking that my route wont be good enough for 14-16 keys and that i need some super crazy route with a lot of big pulls. is this just bad mental? i will be pugging 100% of the time, i looked on keystone guru and i either see some insane top 1% pulls that i feel would wipe the group if i tried without communication or just very safe pulls that i feel would deplete due to time, i dont know if thats correct but i dont want my route to be the reason we fail. sorry for wall of text any help is appriciated! ๐Ÿ™‚

yeah aoe taunt is always an option but you only have it once for that fight

if the DPS is at that ilvl and ripping aggro, there should only be once in that fight at a +7

If they're not ripping/doing their rotation/using CDs, there shouldn't be much of an aggro issue

yeah only once in a fight

at second burst they die and then I die

if there isn't a poison cleanse, you either need to CD/kill the lasher faster/tallent into Bitter Immunity, but it only works once in the fight and is mostly a dead talent rest of the dung/be dorf iirc

Straight up, I've played this game on every skill level this and last season except literal world first content. And lfr/normal raid and m0/2-5s is the most toxic environment out of all of them

round thicket
#

How are we supposed to deal with the arcane orbs on vexamus? A dps player was scolding me for not taking more of them (m0) where I usually soaked 1-2 based on how many spawned near me... so this time I took 3 on first spawn and then the two I took on second spawn killed me for 600k and 800k dmg

#

So was that just a dps baiting me and we are only supposed to take 2 max per cycle or do you rotate the players who soak orbs

pallid quiver
#

Heroic raid can be pretty rough some times, too

strong forum
#

You take 2-3 orbs each wave, usually you should get dispelled, with CDs

pallid quiver
#

healers sometimes don't dispell, tho

Oh ok just a case of healer not cleansing oversurge between sets of orbs then

pallid quiver

If that's the case, you might be able to awkwardly kite him away from some orbs if you need to for stacks to drop

Gotcha thanks, Im surprised I never ran into this issue with orbs before maybe I didnt do much AA when it was S1

pallid quiver
#

Casuals are the 2nd most toxic in my experience; the most toxic in my experience are the people who think they're pro and try to act pro

but they have zero idea what they're doing, and it's only backed by them being like mid-skill level, so they're better than the casuals to give them fuel for their fire

median tulip

But it would not surprise me if, as a whole, casuals were the most toxic as a whole

some of those types of people just physically can't see the proof of them doing any wrong or something; one of my friends knows a few people like this, and they're convinced logs are faked
