It was capped to the 3 closest targets, and only 15seconds
You can pug your way to 520+ gear easily without any raiding
I heavily recommend atleast doin heroic raid
Mythic is nice to get the last few ilvl, but heroic is the best bang for your buck
The trinkets are just overpowered compared to m+
yeah from every raid theres like 2-3 good trinkets
problem is I didnt play my warrior in DF at all and just got him to 70 at the week s4 started but its meme season so
arent all season meme seasons
This
also why im liking arms more than ret??
Cuz ret is fury
Have resource? Send resource?
Don't have resource? Send builder
It's super simple and non-interactive
current arms is boring af
Aoe? Send divinestorm on repeat for 40 globals
Not aoe? Send the other button
Gj here's 700k overall
no waiting for rage, not being able to afk and make a coffee while aa and pooling
Please no. Just like défensives should stay défensives (demo shout) , movement spells should remain movement spells
It's a form of skill expression that has existed for arms since the dawn of time
Demo shout isn’t just a defensive button lol
Exactly
Wat
DS was initially a defensive spell and through talents it’s now an offensive spell as well and I dislike that.
do you guys know that feeling of wanna to be good at the game but cant be asked to play or put time into it
yeah me too
✊
When I have an actual urge to get good at something I can't do anything else
yeah , i wanna get good at war then i see sense tank and i get humbled
sadly I dont have the kind of depression where I sink into a hobby, mine just make me lose fun for everything
In terms of wow classes, I'll spend countless and countless hours at the training dummies
And just smack away
honestly that makes me jealous.
Mine was the same until I got my current meds
Now whenever I want to get good at at something, I let it devour me
Im the same
But im not depressed
Its just fun to deep dive into stuff
Used to speedrun and shit like that
Turbo autism
Im trying without meds right now but my thera plans to go for them if I dont show improvement
shit im always depresssed
You can do it 
my med make me focus
lil vexamus
my anvil did 25k overall that dungeon
and it dropped once near the end lol
working on it 
Thats good
Ya in my AA run anvil did like 26k
Just be the best self you can
But didn't pop that off on vexa
🙏🏿
i know the first dublons are for weapon , what should be the other 2 for and the one this week ? trinkets and if so wich ones?
Can you get incandescent essence in one run? I just remembered I don’t have it lol
I’m not sure don’t think so
But I can just pick it up at the entrance and go yeah?
Ah shit
and then the quest afterwards tells you to kill gnarlroot again
iirc
which is just 
Could I do lfr gnarl and then norm gnarl?
ya
Yea
You can do it in 1 week just run lfr and normal, or lfr and join a heroic fyralath doesnt exist run
whats our "best" neck
im seeing its mostly bromach with some ukhel beads in there
i know its dependent on stat spread but idk if theres a way to sim that for tanks
only thingi know is to aim for more haste
dathea I heard
I remembered Nim mentioned Dathea #1, bromach#2, but if those 2 only heroic just craft the torc neck 525 with crit/haste.
correct
damn so if theyre not myth tier just craft
might use my next spark on it then
thanks
Haste. Are we overvaluing it?
Once you get enough to cover shield block, is it worth continuing up to 7k or is it better to spread the love? I don’t know. 🤷
I ask because I see people like critcakes not running that much and not suffering too many ill effects. On top of that, when i sim, pretty much after 6400 ish, it’s wanting me to lean more towards mastery pieces.
critcake is an arms/fury player
he goes what his sim tells him to go as arms
hes not optimizing for prot
^
thats not his priority at all
if you think youre comfy with SB uptime and ITF, by all means
go for other stats
I think you just need enough to maintain 100% shield block up time
at 6000 im certainly not comfy with my uptime and ITF
But more haste never hurts
also just to be clear critcake is a great player, im just saying his priorities lie elsewhere
so when he tanks, he equips what is available
im actually playing HR atm, an SB gap can mean death in high keys
maybe at 6700+ ill make the swap
Are you playing the haste talent too?
we are definitely NOT overvaluing haste
I can’t remember the name
Ah ok. Acronyms 😄
heavy repercussions, into the fray
Ah yes yes. I don’t play prot enough to know it all. But I do know 100% SB is necessary
You are right and he has said on his stream that his gear is not optimal.
So once one has enough to cover shield block, is the benefit of more haste seen in terms of more dps?, or more ip? or both?
more ip is never a factor
its all about shield block
thats why i said this
if youre playing HR
you can certainly make the swap now i guess
you will not be optimal but it is what it is
if youre playing ITF, and are comfortable without any gaps
go with what the sim tells you
the higher the haste, the better ITF becomes
non-diminished percent buff to your haste
Thanks 🙏
and just to be clear, any MoP remix homies, this does not apply, just go all out on stats
^ 100% haste/mastery/crit easy
haste is the best stat defensively because more haste is more shield slams which is more shield wall uptime and more rage which is even more shield wall and avatar uptime which gives more thunderclaps, etc etc
also if you drop shield block even for a second you can just die
i mean eventually yeah bc 3 ilvls
but if u wanna craft other shit u can
🫡
look what they did to my boy
that reminds me of another character from another game i cant place
i'm playing with 2.5k haste rn, AMA
@strong forum yo, does bolvar have a new account
Or is this some scammer
Oh hi Fang, idk how I
Quoted you
was told i wasnt pulling big enough
only thing i can think of is merging pull 11 and 12 but i feel like everytime ive done that ppl just die
do 2 and 4
dont be a pussy
lol
also if we just synced our pi of the key with our boomkins cds instead of just sending it with 1:45 left on timer we wouldve won
damn man that wouldve been like 10-11 points
bro we even brought the bonus damage guys on boss
and still didnt have time
bromach got like 2 ticks of sanguine 
lol
going in uldaman on sanguine is one of the defining traits of being a masochist
hard avoid
there are other weeks where i'll push that key
you're a prot warrior not a dh
you don't pull like a dh
that must be a joke those are massive pulls
13 is spicy
Why is treemouths splinter S+ trinket and Granyths is C? 1.6mil shield with no offensive value on treemouth, and 1.4mil on granyths with baby offensive. you get an extra 5s on granyths too and it absorbs 75% instead of 50%
and you have the added benefit of not accidentally killing yourself
I guess I get that 75% DR isnt needed on top of IP, but S+ vs C is rough lol
partial absorb vs full absorb
75% is still higher than 50%
bigger absorb = less duration
it will fade in nothing compared to less absorb amount
thats why rageheart is mid compared to treemouth
partial absorbs are also better because they work in cojnunction with any tank's mitigation, whereas 100% absorbs take the damage up front a lot of the times
its a C trinket, its not bad
its just not better than
Rageheart in S+ too though
yes because it provides damage
I guess it has damage too
treemouth doesnt have damage
Weird that all the top tanks run rageheart
A few run granyths, not many tree mouths
they bought it on the premise that it was strong last season
because treemouth doesnt exist
didnt exist, i mean
I just got it today
Was starting to think it didn’t exist
I tried a no rotsigner route in a 7
They but pulled every single one
We probably had 150% by the end
also dreadplates didnt exist
top tanks have it because it was a day 1 buy
without thinking
so might as well use it
yet, you go and ask them and they will flat out say
dreadplates
or treemouth
as of right now
thats why copy pasting top tanks can be detrimental
up to a certain point
maybe they dont need it
Y’a
plus by now
But it’s STR at least
every single healer and some dps have faceless ires
which is yet another absorb on top
on their teams at least
what is the pull difference? if I may know?
basically 1 pull less in first area, pull after bromach on boss and 2 less pulls after 4th boss
only huffing copium as much as possible for vault drop for this 
Yes
Kk Ty homie
all those pulls look so scary
How you guys deal with 2nd boss in neltharus when pugs don't do the chain properly? I pop my CDs and even tho I feel I'm taking way too much damage
well that is the pug dps issue not you issue so yell at them
POGGIES
is the 14 yard radius on Disrupting Shout enough to catch all the adds on Balakar Khan ?
Seriously dude, this boss is like a result of all my bad karma, people always f up with the chains and I'm starting to think the problem is me
Not if you do it right when they spawn
Need to get them more grouped first
alright, thanks 🙂
what do u mean prio?
its just to be used on cd
because of booming voice and TLs u loose value if u hold it


What do you mean
It should give you vault slots based on your highest level of content (awakened myth heroic norm lfr > regular myth heroic norm lfr)
If you mix them to reach a vault slot it’d be regular ilvl not awakened i believe
ok , ty. didnt know how this awaken stuff work
any reason why i dint get the helm enchant quest?
Kill a boss in raid Amirdrassil
yeah i might not get it this week, i already kill 2 and not the right ones
no sophic for us?
we havent been running sophic since s2
Gnarlroot
im assuming if i redo the bosses that i already kill before the quest they will not drop the echos
anyone else feels that spell reflect sometimes doesnt work? specially on last boss of AV and last boss of Nokhud
its like 30% chance it simply doesnt reflect
Definitely always works for me
why is haste the main stat
Rotation go fast
More rage gen
More rage spent
More shield block uptime (main mitigation)
The more we can spend and gain rage the better, because of Anger Management talent
is there a trick for nokhuds 3rd boss?
i can force spell reflects?
i feel like when i was moving away from him
he casted right away
If you mean the elemental boss then yes
Every time youre not in melee range of boss he will cast
And you can spell reflect it
So stay in melee and when SR is back up just run out with reflect
damn okay
this talent is kinda ass?
sometimes i wanna proc some slams with revenge
but im too low on rage
Not if there’s a special attack planned on his timer
Ye
He may queue another cast
But he will eventually cast it because youre not in melee
yes its shit
thats why youre taking the other one
when u want to access shockwave
noted
It's good for the purpose of draining more rage if you are so drowning in rage that you have trouble not wasting it even when pressing IP on its cd, but the only time that was the case was DF pre patch since we still had banner rage, SL conduit unnerving, etc
we would never craft shield correct
You would as a theoretical stop gap; ilvl is the most important stat, so you theoretically would replace it with a myth track shield eventually
what key level is mythic track? 5?
u mean shield wall?
8
Specifically, vault for 8s
craft shield unless you have myth track
i have 3 awaken stones and i was gonna make bracers and back
yeah i gonna do that lol look at this lol
both
no embellishment on shield correct
Correct
wdym, is there a talent that decreases shield block cd?
and this are our new crests correct
Shield wall you get reduction from anger management, but shield block’s actual cooldown gets lowered with higher haste too
For crafting
im so confused in this , like i have some crest but idk where to go
Crests are used to upgrade gear
u upgrade gear w it
arent i supposed to make them better with enchanting or something
Nascent crests are used to craft enchanted crests used in craftinf 502-525 gear with sparks of awakening
once whelpling crests become totally useless and not usable to upgrade because you used them or out geared them in some other method
Upgrading normally obtained gear doesn’t require anything special
then you can/should be able to buy the next tier up to what you are using,
with the old crests you were collecting or using
im trying to make the highest possible shield,cloak and bracers
You need wyrm crests for that
if you are crafting, the crest you can put in, you should still able able to put another higher level crest on it later
Your whelping crests could be used for 489 gear, but just go do a time rift and emerald warden thing and you can buy 480 1h and shield you can upgrade to 502
i have the token from time rift and dream thing
yeah and i dont seem to be able to make anything with drake
You can use them to but veteran track gear that you can upgrade and start running low keys with
Correct, no crafts with drake crests
Buy veteran sword and shield > whelping upgrade as high as you can > run mythic 0s and get champion gear
run normal raids or mythic 0 low keys
i got this erlier
heroic can be pretty challenging past first like, 4 bosses of any raid
i sign for a normal in a community im part on tue
should be able to do heroic too, but its a big jump in difficulty
You should run normal this week too as it resets Tuesday @ebon geyser
im in eu
Oh
hopefully we kill some bosses
Yea, honestly normal is as easy as LFR but you can’t ignore every mechanic and expect to live.
Otherwise, I’d say they’re about the same in terms of a challenge
yeah i got a wa for aberrus since i havent been there in a hot minute
anything else i should get
i got shield
i have a dream seed and idk if i should craft something or wait
You can craft 502 gear with just a spark, and recraft to upgrade when you have more available crests
this is how i look
how can i find out what my crit block chance actually is?
hold up, if you used shield block twice, in season 1, did it extend the duration without any loss?
yes
i remember trying to hold my second charge until the first one wore out, was i just trolling the whole season? :kekw:
not trolling thats 'best' practice
but blizz have given us enouhg block to not care
so just send it
does it make any difference now tho? beside not letting it roll in between pulls in keys, or when boss runs away
having to micro manage shield block was the thing i disliked most about warrior.. and i did it for nothing lul
havent played it since S1 but i may pick it up again in TWW depending on guild needs. But im certainly going to key with it more to maintain gear on it
Well you were reinforcing the best habit to have
Too bad you didnt get much reward from it though
But much better than just not doing it
If you’re making S3 sparks, yes.
You should have Sparks of Awakening for S4
yes i have 3 awaken
and i have sparks of dreams but not the crest
since i dont think they drop anymore
Get rid of the sparks of dream
Useless
i need crest to craft so i guess ill make stuff during the week
is macro demo shout and avatar a thing?
@strong forum is this normal IP should be there no
i was wondering why the IP icon was not showing up
ok , wanted to make sure i didnt mess something up
@ebon geyser you can move the ignore pain value likely.
ya, so you can just move the value, or add the icon
is all good , wanted to make sure
also question, does the cache from the 2.5k rep in the dream still give you good loot or no
reason i ask is once i start to run some 0s that gear will be obsolete?
ohh 509 nice
so it goes up with my ilvl
I kinda hold it to help me snap outbursts before shield slam as long as I don't sit on a second charge; it's really just a rage dump for me now
Anyone playing juggernaut build in m+? I'm speccing Slam dmg atm, doesn't feel too bad. But not worth it i guess
Is
Is this the right channel or is there something very questionable about your sources?
i had a feeling that was the case
I'll see you in Arms
pretty messed up to literally post in wrong channel then talk crap about said channel
hey what are the soft caps for prot warrior stats?
Btw is it crazy if I remove 1 point from bloodborne into disrupting shout on Sark fight? mainly taking for mass interrupt or just leave it to dps?
There aren't any really, besides like 7000 haste
At that point you wanna start to avoid getting more
WHY does my gcd feel so clunky
its like when i press my spell
my spell is rdy but its like clunky i dont know how to explain it
its driving me crazy
i have a good ms too
its 80
ty
Are you in valdrakken?
At the dummies?
nah in dungeons
im from iran tho
connections are not the best here 💀
+sanctions , filtering
but maybe its something else i can fix?
spell queue window
sounds like a spell queue issue
how can i fix it?
didnt work for me
/console spellqueuewindow 200
that should work
general rule of thumb for it is ping+100 for the number in the back
but you shouldnt go below 150
i have 14ping and mine is 150
default is 400 no?
yeah ik
just wanted to try it
these are heavily personalized settings, it involves your ping
kinda feel the same way
more or less and you will get fucked
its usually 80-90 for me
can I do 0 spellqueue
forbidden tech..
Ima do it when I login next
Wait2 tell me more about this. Seems like I heard nothing from guide video. I need some good secret tech.
careful cause it can be detrimental apb
I’m very fast
maybe you are
I’m like reckful type racing fast
but is your connection?
well try it but you can see negative effects with the wrong values
has nothing to do with your reaction time
Can I do negative spellqueue
Only us prot warr can go to 0
I refuse to allow prot pala
youre missing the point
I got free internet
good evening 😄 a question should i run defenders aegis at 519 ilvl?
so if i have 58 latency i should do 150?
In my experience even with stellar ping messing with the queue feels off
I have 9-16 ms typically and it always feels weird if I change from default, other people might feel differently though
https://x.com/i/status/1792622912207258064 brew master monk main
That’s me
can play around with it ye
but never below 150
with 150sqw you need to press the button 7 times a second to not miss micro gcds
dont make the window to low, if its too low you gotta REALLY spam buttons
to not miss micro gcds
with 400ms you gotta press a button 3 times a second not to miss
how good is mastery for keys? should i be trying for more for 20%?
stats are not goalposts
much less percents (as oppsed to ratings)
if youre juggling different pieces go with sims
For remix does anyone know if IP triggers Arcanist's edge?
it should
but shrug
shouldnt min max it
youre using IP as you use it in retail
over (or at) 70 rage? press ip
whats to yap about these lists? Anyone can like/dislike dungeon or boss they want
i agree but that doesnt mean talking about them cant be fun
but yeah theyve done these rankings in the past, its not something im particularly looking forward to
it just felt like a wall on certain affixes
and I like Ulda as a tank
this is all based on their proper seasons
- TD
- Siege
- Shrine of the storms
- NW
- Dos
- VP
- ToP
- NW again
- Hoi
- Uldaman
no Temple of Jade?
Hoi and Uldaman because each dungeon feels like its 2hrs long
the argument to Jade, is that it was a dungeon that properly tested tanks
Jade is quick and only suffered from a shit tank busters
last boss was painful
well "properly" cause you could get RNGd with wave
and the last packs properly tested syncing and reflecting
i never really thought hoi was a bad key
i might replace Uldaman with Jade
it does feel like it takes fucking forever
but its not the forever that uldaman is
uldaman is forever torture, hoi is like a chill forever
Hoi is awful and is EXTREMELLLLLLYYY uneventful especially as tank
like what the fuck
do you do as tank there
ok true
youre a literal spectator
I love ulda
like tanking in DF feels like youre 100% a spectator
praying and hoping that your group does the thing
while you play an autoscroller
thats how tanking feels like in DF
i also remember liking kings rest
but i also was a turbo shitter in bfa so
i did like 7s
KR was just bad because of zul
without kings rest we wouldnt have this banger video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n97QhosYv0k
1st boss 1shotting with its debuff ticks on tyr
2nd boss having INSANE hp
3rd bossing having 2x HP of any other boss in the game
- infinity bleed
- charge
2nd boss thrreew you in the closets right
that guy took so fucking long lol
and then the boss would destroy tanks
with his jailer level auto attacks
3rd boss, the trio, was praying for good axes RNG (bleed)
that your havoc would blade dance dodge them all
same for the charge boss
kings rest was also just like 3 key levels harder than everything else right
yes
because of the bosses
the dungeon was literally 90% bosses on tyr
and on fort it was 100% "can you get past zul"?
with awakened affix the dungeon routing became ALOT better
since you could skip most of the bridge
and the playerpower was high enough that zul was only 30% overpowered
and not 100%
never nerfed btw
1 entire expansion shadow of zul got nerfed twice in total
a) for teeming, so you wouldnt get 2 Zuls
b) received a 10% nerf to its aoe dmg thingy in s4 iirc
thats it
LMFAOOOO THAT WAS A THING?
was that even possible to complete
ofc not

youd need 2 people soaking circles
- your tank was rammed by a dot so immense that youd literally die between healing surge spams of a resto shaman
yeah this prot warrior is literally taking 80% of his health every other second
through lust and multiple cds

remember parrying council
that felt good at least
2 absorb trinkets
literally has sr avatar last stand and lust and is still dying very quickly
spellblock gg
BFA pwar is like 3 times weaker than DF pwar
why was pwar meta
damage output
safeguard
block
pwar did like 50% more dmg than other tanks in keys
damn safeguard just used to exist freely, made into a conduit, and then removed
in its prime
tragic
but also, every other tank was just worse
similar situation to DF s1
other tanks were just bad
As someone who played dh back then
brew was good in s3 cuz of bugs + trinkets + weapon
wait this guy has like 50% shield block uptime
What a horrid spec looking back at it
is that just how prot warrior was
VDH was turbo immortal but did 0 damage
wtf lol
VDH was turbo immortal until you got into actual high keys
last stand didnt give SB but gave 100% block chance
And just got oneshot
but also
Zul didnt melee
so SB was useless vs him
zul only ate your ass with magic dmg
and it was on am so that makes a lot more sense
man i wish i was good during corruptions
shear spam go brr
VDH was so ungodly tanky in BFA if you played gluttony
but you also did ungodly amounts of no damage
cuz it was gluttony vs spb
couldnt play both
i still see vdhs do ungodly amounts of no damage
same
did a dps key yesterday and the vdh was doing 100k st

100k is almost impressive

Yeah I had to play gluttony
were they afk lol
Full haste corruption was quite fun

must be one of those
evoker isnt allowed to do dmg otherwise you'd go oom
dorki was in the group too actually
lmaoooo
meanwhile prevoker?
i bet dorki was like "holup"
name checks out
skill based loot distribution
what can i say

thats why i have 2 legendaries with 3 and 4 kills respectively
damn last boss on that kings rest 31 no leaver took 7 minutes
even if i get it im not gonna craft it
too much work
But the mog
Legendary rng is the reason I'm not playing a bdk alt this season
Just bullshit lol
For fun season but if I started farming it now, there's a high chance I'd get it like 1 week before pre patch
So much fun Blizzard yay
banger group
seeing max's list and withou having played any other expansion it gives off the vibe that he hasnt really played other seasons or doesnt remember
as in there are so many from the last 2 seasons
which is weird bc didnt he literally do mdi in bfa and not play m+ at all in shadowlands
Max m+ takes are always cooked
did not play back then hence why its just an impression
im a df baby
like idk some of these keys are shit but there's no way 60% comes from last 2 seasons xdd
it makes a lot of sense, a lot of those are from reworked old dungeons
blizzard misses its mark in a whole lot of those
plus adapting megadungeons into m+
sometimes it works really well, but the other side is it fails spectacularly
do prot war use slam ever
no
swag
oh sorry im noob where do you find that page
thank you!!
I got a group earlier this week when people asking MM hunter "Why don't you lust? put the pet out." his answer "I am MM." everybody shake their head, including me.
The MM I play with who swapped to BM pretty quickly in season 1 explained it like the team asking you to eat gravel for their benefit
sure, it benefits the team, but it still tastes and feels like gravel as it goes down your esophagus, and it's not pleasant
whereas BM just... does it and moves on with their life
Is Treemouth's more usefull than Granyth's?
yeah its better defensively
bro i see why some vengs do 0 damage
if u go full defensively this spec
does fucking nothing
what gems are prot warriors using in mop remix?
any and all
buff all stats + armor
wonder why i keep seeing
prot raid builds with show of force instead of sudden death
in both retail modes lmao
shit is wild
We dislike execute in this household
theres absolutely nothing in here, or wowhead, or icy veins that picks show of force
and yet
i meant tinker gems
this week alone ive seen more warriors with it in raid than anything
why memory of vengeance? once you have good cloak + gear you never take dmg
swap that out then at your own discretion
we're not min maxing a meme game mode
those are just the ones that were good before big ilvl gains
and thread count
exactly my point this guide is halfbaked
why ask if you have the answer yourself?
exactly my point, this guide is for a meme game mode
a meme game mode wiht higher player count than s4 lol

millions ate tide pods, is it a good idea?
I'd argue that the "meme" here is due to the "You can do whatever you want because it's supposed to be fun".
why was wildfire chosen as a dps gem ? its n aoe but does it outscale single targer options like quick strike even in ST encounters? i have lots of questions but none of the information is out there
thats exactly my point mwahi
also, i looked at other class guides where the wrtier at least gave explanations for their gem picks
who wrote the prot warrior one it is so barebones its sad
k
Someone took his time to write something up for a mode that will be gone in 80 days
I don't think anyone actually did any relevant theorycrafting for Remix since it's a "temporary" game-mode, that not all of the theorycrafters are going to be playing.
and its still not enough for you?
I haven't even touched Remix outside of the VERY-VERY short testing phase.
lvl 20 for the mount into quit
im doing ok
Comapre blood DK to prot warrior guide
playing dk because our guide is so barebone?
no because i already have a prot warrior
why compare no one cares about meme mode
and i dont want to level another one
If you read deeper into the BDK you can see that majority of the text is "What does this gem do".
E.g "It gives 5% haste".
You can just hover over it and read it.
what tinkers are you using
guy is really invested in min maxing remix
^
I'm happy that people are enjoying WoW Remix. 
But it's not something i even care about.
Or plan on playing.
Is there any reaosn to go over 100% crit btw or is that the cap
like idk if enemies have negative modifiers agasint your crit
wouldn't 100% crit mean you crit all the time though? so going over that would be a waste
crit increases crit damage
why doesnt the in game tooltip say that?
because blizzard
hehehe
and why is speed hardcapped at 49% not 50%? why is it hardcapped at all
I noticed that playing with my gems earlier. looking forward to capping it naturally throuhg threads and removing the gems 🙂
I just can't wait until I have enough gems maxed that I don't have to use speed+stam gems
speed is probably my favorite stat in remix, its going to be rough going back to retail and being so slow
i'll also miss my double heroic leap 😔
glory days, really
Does mastery or vers scale better in terms of dps? vers says it increaers the damage you deal, and mastery increases your attack power
first one, then the other
Isn't remix just..."YOu get super-duper freaking strong and get a ton of every stat" ?
Yes
yeah pretty much
yes which is why im asking, which stat is actually better dps wise since the defensive component of each is nullified by the fact that wiht high ilvl youre unkillable in remix
whats your ilvl
Idk..vers?
is % dmg from vers or % dmg from mastery stronger
Maybe vers scales with the weird bonuses you get from gems.
of course me and the other tank were the only ones alive
So hard to say
you are also a dk, thats how your class works
not in raids
i'm i lvl 440 and just did that raid an hour ago, took no dmg. like seeing my hp bar move just doesnt happen in remix unless the rest of the group wipes which is farily common since most people arent upgrading their gear lol
depends
if you have carry dps
and/or are warding
youre 440? so youre maxed?
530 weapon?
youre really taking this game mode that seriously lmao
im aware
makes it kind of annoying to judge people's power
since the numbers are off from what youd expect them to be
dont tell me you are super picky who you pick for dungeons and raid
everyone has 342 accessories
its a fricking fun mode
you definitely dont want to bring people with unupgraded gear to heroics, theyre jsut dead weight at that point and getting carried
1 mech will one shot them
thye dont need to be super juiced though
shrug
how good is avoidance? i noticed its the only stat that doenst have a gem
doesnt matter
doesnt matter
I think it does matter. at the peak of mop remix you will have so much of every single stat that avoidance will probably be BIS
it doesnt matter
since its the only one you cant get thru threads or gems
it does matter becasue most raids have like half the group dying so I need to figure out how to squeeze more dmg. every .01% counts. i've considered trying some of the more healing oritent and party play gems but the problem wiht those is they feel underwhelming becasue most deaths in remix are due to bad tuning and one shots
it doesnt matter
and undergeared ppl jsut feeding
which doesnt matter
how will it be BiS if you have every stat "maxed" out and dont take dmg alrdy?
gone in 2.5 months = doesnt matter
beasue you cant get it via threads or gems, which means avoidance is the only stat with a theoretical hardcap if you roll it on every single piece of gear
if you want to truly max your toon you need avoidance in every slot
all we can say is
avoidance does nothing for us in normal retail
as tanks
it does absolutely jack shit
bro you arnt taking dmg why do you want a stat that would reduce the dmg you are not taking ?
stop using that much brain power on a fun mode
im not dying at all
because you seem like you arent
so then dont fucking worry about avoidance
like i said
it DOES NOT matter
🤝
☝️
Cant have that because F stands for friends and my friends dont play wow
is tough as nails any good? it says it only does 23k dmg which seems like nothing but does it scale with stats or something
what about vs retail? lots of bosses dont evne have reflectable stuff
In retail it'll account for like 1-1.5% of your dmg in a key. Not great.
the alternative is no damage so
dungeon bosses have a lot of reflect stuff
something is better than nothing
yes because its another damage instance within the same global that can proc any of the gems
Also, back to the wowhead guide. there is a lot of unneeded utility in the dungeon spec. things die so qucik that shockwave / intim shouit seem to have no purpose
cc in general does nothing in this mode
you run shockwave to proc the crit gem
write your own guide if you are unhappy
id say he should make his own decisions, the guide isnt for him
why does champions spear exist when its so simialr to ravager and everyone seems to just pick that? does it have any actual use case?
ravager gives you alot of rage over time, spear is only upfront rage
maybe he writes good guides and others can profit of it for meme mode
yeah for a whole 2.5 months
spear aoe is small and everything needs to ber hit by it to gain the increased damage taken, ravager follows mobs
bro you realsie a wow seaosn is liek 4 months and then the meta shifts invalidating some of the class guides
retail wow is literally on a seasonal model
with the constent ilvl inflation
our class guide hasnt changed for ...
so why do ppl write guide for it?
yeah lol last stand talents for the tier bonus was about it
pwar was that good this xpac it didnt need updating
i said some , not prot in general thats just more indicative of the state of our spec....
If you want to see it like that xD
youre a clown
OUR spec
and yet
you started playing it
in remix
because you very obviously
i played in s2 and s3
dont know shit about it at all
i mean its still my fave tank, preferred solo conteent playsstyle, best tank in keys upto 10, capable of tanking heroic raids possibly better than some other tanks and only really ever fell short in the highest content
shield block uptime has been a game changer
hey i heard they are removing the damage done penalty form defensive stance, how does that differntiate it from battle stance going forward in tww
already live in game
Same as it is now?
B stance for burst windows where you want to crit
D stance when you're taking damage that could 1 shot you?
live in bstance permantly until you need some DR
Itt used to be 10%
hey
why arent there remix speicif channels for classes? if there are tww and cata / vanilla versions
jsut saw that
because no one cares
people might actually care to theorcraft and engage with discussion about the modes more if there was actually a place to do it lol
who says thye dont care? was there a vote and that was the consensus?
Yeah, the council of prot warriors voted
why cant wew do it here tho, its build on current wow
speaking of rage is there an ddon that shows your ignore pain as like a % over your hp bar similar to how XIV handles absorbs? (they call it barriers there)
i noticed wow completely lacks this option in default ui and its very cringe
weak auras my guy
you cant even tell how big an absorb is
why would i want to be weak? i'd be playing mage if that were the case
i picked prot war to be strong
😎 Prot warrior is bis for Igira can confirm
hes def baiting if he said mage is weaak
class with 5 defensives everyone
super weak
we were the go to tank in s1 for a long time
bad players say they are weak because they dont know how to use defensives
same with hunters
and their 4
did you play beta? that shit was busted. Remember party wall with 2 uses?
^^ dark pact in reemix is fucking broken
that warlocks are bad as dark pact is broken as fuck
see you guys are so try hard that you take everything through this obsessive lens of performance , yet for some reason you don't apply that same attitude to remix? i dont get it.
it was clearly a joke between warrior has muscle
and mage doesnt
