i hope we don't have to wait til 11.2.6 or whatever for SL raids

#

so cringe how late they left that for BFA

tribal wharf
#

i havent tried the nzoth one from bfa yet

#

wont bother with raids that can actually kill me

proper roost
#

It's fine, it's easy. I did it in the prepatch 480 gear at level 70

#

they adjusted all the bfa raids in the penultimate patch of DF

warm plinth
#

How are you gonna just ignore my fabulous joke

Loaded question
Does anyone know the calculation relation of Haste=shield block cooldown

What prot warriors can i watch on YT throughout the season for tips/guides especially for M+?

#

I know Quazii but wanted to see others

icy flax

#

mythic adjustments so they're soloable*

icy flax

Oh what's not possible on mythic rn

If you're on NA I'll do mythic with you

leaden olive
#

what do you guys think for first spark craft? i was going ring maybe or neck

leaden olive
#

yeah thats what i was wondering ty

tribal wharf
#

the pin will probaly get removed when its more safe to do crafting

proper roost
#

alright i got tired of arguing with shamans and had to make this

#

it also applies here like all the time

i know yall have seen "the sheet" already

stop stealing my valor yogi

lusty grotto

but im sure someone can make it

#

this is raid oriented

lofty warren
#

Hmm where would the information be location?

waxen frigate
proper roost
#

Ok well link them all to me right now

#

i need to spam them to people who keep coming into class discs like "yea of course i will do all +10s week one? are u fucking stupid"

#

and then don't understand literal basics of their spec and think secondary stat allocation is yuge

#

like GOD why can't casuals just be realistic about the content they're doing and just be like "yeah i'll probably do like a +4 or +5 at most for the first few weeks"

waxen frigate
#

The right one is bis because it has parse numbers rather than iq

proper roost
#

yeah but i needed it specifically to say "WHAT IS THE BIS GEAR I SHOULD WEAR WHY DO WE HATE MASTERY" etc

waxen frigate
#

Yeah well cope

proper roost
#

Casuals who obsess about secondary stat allocation are my #1 hate

waxen frigate
proper roost

I hope they all perish in +2s

And I'm NOT taking that back

i asked ai art to create the valor mines, the one with the dock in the lake reminds me of a battlegrounds, the other of a dungeon

yaaa thats what i picked up on too

Guys, we can have a total of 2 Embellished gear pieces right ?

game's dead

tribal wharf
#

whats that device on star trek

icy flax
#

i'm just the messanger

tribal wharf
#

the one what you point it at any item and it tells you a bunch of details about it, that type of technology is the end game of AI

#

you know what im talkin about, looks like the garys mod gun

icy flax
#

Do y'all take Heavy Repurcussions

waxen frigate
#

Only way to have the shield block uptime you need at current haste levels

lusty grotto
#

nobody should be taking ITF at this point

tribal wharf
#

how much haste before itf

#

30%?

icy flax
#

and when you say you can swap to itf, is shield block infinite at that point?

lusty grotto
#

no

icy flax
#

so why would u ever stop using hp

#

hr*

lusty grotto
#

because theres more value with ITF

#

at a certain haste level

icy flax
#

Can you elaborate why

lusty grotto
#

the more haste you have, the better ITF is

#

its DR-less

#

since DR only applies to rating

icy flax
#

appreciate it thanks

#

gonna keep taking itf anyway

lusty grotto
#

its fine for raid

#

just not good for M+

#

at our current haste

icy flax
#

I appreciate the help and insight

#

but i am going to keep taking it cuz haste is fun

proper roost
#

actually insanely based gigachad fun maximizer

icy flax
#

i was also ignorant and thought HR was bad

rigid hull
#

fuck minus -8% haste

#

gonna feel like ass

proper roost
#

you know

#

the biggest factor for io (or whatever measure of success you find ingame) is time spent

lusty grotto
#

dying to a shield block gap feels likes ass

proper roost
#

if minmaxing the fun you have in a spec, even if it's technically suboptimal, makes you play it more

#

then it will much likely be better

#

🙂

icy flax
#

If i die i'll just play better next time

#

planning to do 4m dps and die on vdh on the 17th hype as hell

lusty grotto
#

thats the spirit

icy flax
#

hell yea

remote tusk
#

"I didn't block for .00005 microseconds, oof owie."

lusty grotto
#

🤷

proper roost
#

i wish i had the energy to have that hype again

#

it's proving difficult for me to even get the motivation to get up to ~580 before delvespam week 😔

waxen frigate
#

It’s really easy to get to 580 tho

proper roost
#

yeah but that takes more time than playing like 1 hour

lusty grotto
#

just do it you pansy

proper roost
#

my only motivation is that i might be able to do keys with nimchip and his friends again in a few weeks..

placid vigil
#

is it just me or does anyone else notice that their character is "missing" on swings/abilities alot

proper roost
#

I have a lot of other irl stuff I really want to do right now

waxen frigate
#

Are you low leve fighting higher level mobs in the open world

proper roost
#

and then a lot of other more interesting stuff happens in the next 2 weeks 😔

#

wow motivation at an all time low for me i'm afraid

lusty grotto
#

good kanga good

fair beacon
#

yo. question: I am mainly a prot pve player but I wanna get the rep rewards from the pvp quest. which spec is better at pvp atm? arms or fury?

strong forum
#

fury is more braindead

#

just send all CDs at once

#

and something will die

proper roost
#

and then the worst part is I was like "wait, why do I even want to get top 1% this season in wow? that sounds like it'll take a lot of time and also take away time from a lot of my other hobbies" so now i'm existentially torn on whether i should even try

placid vigil
proper roost
#

yeah but the problem is wow players have an extremely fucked up sense of how valuable time is

#

they'll be like "yeah i spent 20 hours on keys this week, didn't really try"

mellow quartz
#

There are no ‘push weeks’ now

waxen frigate
#

Like actually missing?

mellow quartz
#

So you don’t have to sacrifice whole weeks

waxen frigate
#

Shows in the log/details and everything?

placid vigil
#

havent really done any logging on it but pops up multiple times on my screen sasying miised

#

missed*

waxen frigate
#

Because tanks in current WoW don’t have the capability to miss or be parried outside of specific effects

proper roost
placid vigil
#

anyway on details to get missed?

proper roost
#

it's about just having time in general to key

waxen frigate
#

And it would have like a bar for normal dmg, then a bar for crit dmg, then a box for misses/parries

mellow quartz
proper roost
#

unless you have a group that is carrying you or get fairly lucky, high io early season is really time consuming

#

yes

#

I know

#

that's

#

MY POINT!!

mellow quartz
#

Early season IO is made so much easier if you mythic raid

proper roost
#

Me: man IDK if I have the motivation to key anymore, I realize I don't really need self validation from how good I am at wow
you: no one's making you!

#

no shit!!

mellow quartz
#

Ilvl will carry you early

proper roost
#

😡

#

I just procced VO!

proper roost
#

I'm about to thunder blast you!

placid vigil
#

@waxen frigate thats my melee for overall on some dungeons

waxen frigate
#

Show gear

proper roost
# placid vigil

some mobs in hallowfall or something have some kind of miss debuff they can put on you i'm guessing it's just some shit like that tbh

waxen frigate
#

There are mobs that have miss chance due to specific abilities

#

But idk which ones in particular

placid vigil
#

its everywhere i go not even in hallowfall

lusty grotto
#

dark passages in darkcleft are only minus damage isnt it?

#

not misses, etc

mellow quartz
#

-99% damage and healing

#

If you mean the darkness thing

lusty grotto
#

yup

muted arch

what level would u guys recommend bran be to solo tier 8delves on tuesday

commence mage terrorism

#

would have been better if i got it as healer

proper roost
#

why are you playing mage yogi

#

wtf...........

mellow quartz
proper roost
#

knowing yogi it's some fucked up shit like a mechagnome mage..

warm plinth
#

What's wrong with mechagnomes

lusty grotto
#

yo @waxen frigate

#

can you judge my mog

#

i made some adjustments

proper roost
#

i hate both of you

lusty grotto
proper roost
#

nish only likes transmogs where people look like literal npcs

#

anyways are you busy next friday

#

my friends don't want to do m0

lusty grotto
#

possible, but hectic week for me

proper roost
#

Dang

#

this sucks

lusty grotto
#

its very likely

#

but

#

hmm

#

also remember m0s are daily

proper roost
#

oh shit real

#

i did not know that

#

oh god next week could be REALLY degen

silk sandal
#

does anyone know if raidbots properly sims tanks having dps role only trinkets nerfed?

lusty grotto
#

yes it does

warm plinth
lusty grotto
#

do you mean with the trinket nerf?

silk sandal
#

Yeah

lusty grotto
#

it should

silk sandal
#

Alrighty, was assuming that but I am seeing things wildly different from the guide haha. I guess its just that current gear is super low compared to what sims are typically done at

mellow quartz
#

Simming yourself right now just seems kinda pointless

lusty grotto
#

agreed

#

but its something they can do if theyre looking for "bis lists"

#

which are also pointless right now

vocal cave
#

does shield slam dmg scale with block value?

warm plinth
#

No, it scales with attack power

#

and a talent

minor sparrow
#

is pwar apm too high

warm plinth
#

That is purely subjective

proper roost
#

it's probably on the higher end for tanks with mountain thane tbf

#

feel like it was pretty middling in df

fluid widget
#

@proper roost did you used to be the resto shaman guru in classic

#

Or was it priest? Name looks v familiar

proper roost
#

yeah I used to do classic healing stuff

#

All 5 specs generally (way easier to keep up with how classic specs play)

fluid widget
#

Or was Lovelace the priest

#

Been a minute

proper roost
#

All kinda helped out with all of them

fluid widget
#

Nice, classic was some interesting times

#

Nice to see other classic folks here now

lusty grotto
#

ghash dont you dare

#

also kanga has been around here longer than classic

fluid widget
#

No not here like the server just retail

lusty grotto
#

yes

fluid widget
#

O

proper roost
#

yes sadly i am old

lusty grotto
#

hes been around retail longer than classic

fluid widget
#

So much makes sense

proper roost
#

i was here when skyhold was first made (in 2016 shortly after discord launch)

fluid widget
#

So much

lusty grotto
#

so have i sadge

proper roost
#

Yeah but you're older than me so

#

I win

#

like, WAY older.

lusty grotto
#

lol

fluid widget
#

Do any of the tanks not give carpal tunnel?

lusty grotto
#

the true granpappy is Sense

#

Master Sense

#

and then probably Yogi

#

i dont have carpal tunnel issues

#

so i wouldnt know

#

but im also very picky about my binds

#

which probably helps a shitload

tribal wharf
#

i just dont like having to do modifiers unless its like, you do it once every 5 minutes

warm plinth
tribal wharf
#

trying to play rogue, i could get into it, very brain dead spec

#

class even

warm plinth
#

Define "trying to play rogue"

tribal wharf
#

walk up to enemy, attack it over and over again

lusty grotto
#

lol...

warm plinth
#

at what level lol

lusty grotto
#

rogue is one of the highest maintenance classes in the game rn

proper roost
#

yogi is so powerful man

#

I love him

#

and yeah I think BDK has to be the lowest

tribal wharf
#

59

proper roost
#

Specifically now that they don't like haste

#

specifically now that haste is like their worst stat*

#

is probably like bdk < bear < brm/veng/ppal < pwar honestly

fluid widget
#

Rogue feels awful without their full kit

#

And then you realize that they’re kit is boring once you have everything

wild agate
#

Bear is pretty high apm

proper roost
#

eh, I guess bear is pretty much the same apm as those other 3

fluid widget
wild agate
#

I think you press Ironfur more than you press ignore pain

tribal wharf
#

is bear purple consecration the way?

proper roost
#

did they buff how often you press ironfur?

#

cuz it wasn't that often in DF, relatively speaking

tribal wharf
#

if its not i dunno if im interestd

proper roost
#

and they've buffed how often you press IP now by a lot

wild agate
#

well with Thorn of Iron build you press it very often

#

because it does damage too

foggy frost
#

if i have rend and thunder clap, do i need rend on my bars or does thunder apply to all

oblique quarry
#

thunder

foggy frost
#

(not at home to test)

tribal wharf
#

it should say so even on website talent calculators

#

if you have both, hitting tc puts rend on targets

foggy frost
#

yup thanks

wild agate
#

so definitely playable in dungeons

#

less so in raids I guess

lone eagle
#

What's a totally brief and subjective overview of ST tank DPS look like right now for raid

#

Just curious on some subjective opinions here

#

Bear seems top. Then Pwar/BDK/VDH all around the same?

lusty grotto
#

what makes you think that

lone eagle
#

Just quick sims I've been running on all my tanks and playing them, but part of why I'm looking for some external validation

lusty grotto
#

what kind of sims are you runing

lone eagle
#

Trying to decide on my raid tank and waffling between bear, Brew and pwar

#

Just quick Patchwerk. My Pwar is smoking my Brew with a slight ilvl disadvantage

lusty grotto
#

what hero talents

lone eagle
#

And my bear is smoking everything down 15 ilvls

lusty grotto
#

1 target 3 mins? 1 target 5 mins?

lone eagle
#

1 target 5 minutes, ran a few sims for each of the recommended raid setups

#

But basically max ST talent setup

lusty grotto
lone eagle
#

On bear, Pwar and Brew primarily

#

Oh nice

lusty grotto
#

keep in mind some of those hero trees might not be the best for prog

#

its just full sending on damage

lone eagle
#

So Pwar is slamming more than I think

lusty grotto
#

yes

lone eagle
#

Sick

lusty grotto
#

as colossus

#

read above

lone eagle
#

Yeah I love both specs

lusty grotto
lone eagle
#

Yep. Maybe I'll bang out m+ title again

#

Would be nice for my raid and m+ tank to be the same this season

#

Working 55 hours a week these days so have taken the last few seasons off

#

Besides CE and weekly keys

lusty grotto
#

kinda feels like youre overlooking "as colossus"

#

idk

#

also "as dotc"

#

and the others

fluid widget
#

MT is ridiculously fun to play

lusty grotto
#

which is weird cause they didnt sim VDH as FS

lone eagle
#

My cotank is a VDH

fluid widget
#

Isn’t FS just better than aldrachi for everything?

lone eagle
#

so I didn't care too much about VDH this season. But I'm fine with both Colossus and MT

#

I ran my sims with both trees and execute/non execute

#

Prob just some sim wonkiness/unoptimized stats and gear and no 4 set

#

Was mostly looking for ballpark spec potential

#

But you've sold me on Pwar which is what I've wanted the answer to be anyway with no ragrets

lusty grotto
#

well i wasnt looking to sell

fluid widget
#

I’m a peasant prot but it’s stupidly fun in heroics

lone eagle
#

I have a sick Pwar mog in the works

#

I've been disappointed with my Brew despite historically being a Brew main

#

Magic just isn't there anymore

#

But I'm still kind of bear'd out

#

TIME FOR PWAR BABY

wild agate
#

in a pure damage sense, on aoe it is worth to stop spamming shield slam resets and press revenge instead, when about to cap rage?

#

im kinda annoyed by having constant resets and using all my rage on IP practically wasting almost all of it since IP is already full

lusty grotto
#

if youre talking about MT, no

#

burn rage with IP

#

its off-gcd

#

IP being full does not matter, use it anyway

wild agate
#

but I'm pretty sure that above a certain amount of targets, revenge simply does more damage than shield slam

lusty grotto
#

rage cycling is more important than whatever value your IP has

lusty grotto
#

SS grants TB stacks

#

revenge hits for nothing in MT

#

same as in DF really

#

you have 2 reasons to cast revenge

#
  1. on opener to apply initial deep wounds
wild agate
#

riiight

lusty grotto
#
  1. if SS and TC are on cd
wild agate
#

I missed the fact that only SS grants TB

#

thanks

#

also, is Thorim's Might actually better than Gathering Clouds?

#

since this way in an AoE situation you will practically never use Revenge

#

other than applying deep wounds

lusty grotto
#

you will use revenge

#

just whenever TC/TB and SS are on cd

#

to fish for SS procs

wild agate
#

so far in in my experience the resets are so frequent that this happens very rarely

lusty grotto
#

its just the lowest prio skill

#

content right is irrelevant

wild agate
#

but I see

lusty grotto
#

its not transferable to actual content

#

things will live longer

#

on that actual content

mellow quartz
#

Revenge is like 3-4% of your damage in a key as MT

wild agate
#

thanks for the insight

#

was kinda getting annoyed by this but it makes sense now

tidal glacier
#

we running punish build or execute for raid?

lusty grotto
#

whatever feels best for your own prog

#

if youre not getting pounded, do execute

#

otherwise punish

#

fairly straightforward

tidal glacier
#

execute it is

#

we have some healers that are pumping so thats their problem not mine XD

lusty grotto
#

well you also havent done the fights yet

#

so 🤷

warm plinth
#

I've mastered all of them on Pineappl'ar Palace

#

so

#

take that

lusty grotto
#

i believe it

tribal wharf
#

rogue seems to be okay too

patent musk
tribal wharf
#

devs of wow should have a version of world of pinnaple for raids for testing ideas

#

sand box, i imagine they make raid bosses using something like that

tidal glacier
hardy snow
#

ngl, aoe padding is quite fun

tribal wharf
#

rogue is good, killing spree as finisher is great idea

Is the Tome still a good sleeper damage trinket

tribal wharf
#

found one dungeoning lol

vague abyss
#

as a new tank, should i be worrying about routes now for season 1? Just noticed that i have to actually choose direction for adds %, this discord can help with that clueless

lusty grotto
#

you have a full week before m+ comes out

#

also r.io often have basic routes

#

also dungeons are pretty press-W

vague abyss
#

oh so next week isnt the start of season 1?

lusty grotto
#

yes but no M+

#

only m0

vague abyss
#

just 0's? ah ok

rigid hull
#

Dawnbreaker litteralt worst design ever dont u think @lusty grotto

tribal wharf
#

what do you dislike about it

vague abyss
#

is weird that i do more damage as a prot warrior than a arms one in world content (questing, rares, delves, etc)?

tribal wharf
#

it took me alot of failures but i finally figured out everything about that place most part

vague abyss
#

my hp basically doesnt exists as a prot either lol

tribal wharf
#

probably because you can afford to pull more mobs without worrying about dying

#

for open world prot is 100% what to do, never die

rigid hull
#

its littrealy dogshit dungeon @tribal wharf

#

i dont wanna fly around and find stuff to kill

#

i wanna movce with my character and clear mobs

tribal wharf
#

i was more mad about the map and how it was visually shown on the map

rigid hull
#

its like

#

no one prefers to do this dungeon

#

no one likes it

tribal wharf
#

3 rare spawn icons that represent where you can mount and then 3 gold dots on map, at curch, town hall, and pub, and the mobs walk in and out of the little houses or stay in them

#

you have to go to each house, clear the mob (its pretty obvious once spotted, highlighted, unique model and name)

#

and then that boss wont hurt you at all

#

i was mad that there is this map of the area you can fullscreen and then it doesnt show me or the party on the screen

#

final boss is pretty sneaky too, have to grab dragon balls on way to boss phase2 make sure you dont die to dots, and he can totally agrro the prest and meleethem for landing phase 3

#

green roll bar thats really sneaky

boreal hamlet
#

do we know what

#

we are gonna use our embellishments on yet

lusty grotto
#

whatever is on the guides

#

and pending tuning changes

boreal hamlet
#

so the linen

tribal wharf
#

its just war within zeros only right

#

cuz theres some dungeons i want to really get in there and make sure i 100% learn the mechanics to an unfailable level

#

if they are in ther from the rip

#

and some i want to avoid

pallid quiver
regal hornet
#

guys any pvp warrior build? where can i find? here on the discord?

#

prot ofc

brave stirrup
#

Do any of you love prot but absolutely hate the dps specs? I want to roll prot war this expac but man I hate the other 2 specs

pallid quiver
regal hornet
pallid quiver
#

and expect to get laughed out of the room if you're asking for something for not battlegrounds, since tanks are not optimal unless the game is in a bad spot

#

It's like going to a sushi restaurant and asking about the best setups for nets to go lobster fishing

#

they do in fact both deal with aquatic life

#

but they're entirely different fields

no drama dw

probably some nice mortal strike arms colossus build too i bet

how do you get a nerubian embellishment on shield in a crafting order

potent anvil
#

Which one?

#

Shields are considered armor, you can't put a weapon-only embellishment. I dunno if shields can have all armor-type embellishments. I never really pay too much attention to them.

does anyone know what the % is on this ignore pain tracker?

I think rares are only one time

cuz i did a lap around hallowfall to try to get like 50 rep and the previous ones i've killed

#

did not give any

#

maybe it's once per week idk

lusty grotto
#

i see

versed widget
#

it kinda feels like its trying to tell me what percentage ignore pain is filled, but it caps at 30% instead of 100%

frosty holly
#

Just by reading the description aka

Additionally, this WeakAura is "smart" about how it determines whether or not an Ignore Pain cast should be considered a full cast. By default, an Ignore Pain cast that will grant 80% of its absorb or more is considered a full cast. Inversely, an Ignore Pain cast that will grant less than 20% of its absorb is considered a capped (red) cast. This threshold percentage is adjustable in Custom Options.

It seems to be the Threshold percentage.

versed widget
#

mmmm i think that is referring to the colour of the text on the absorb

#

otherwise im not sure why a fully capped absorb is showing 30%

frosty holly
#

Might be bugged. Or odd setting. What happens if you change it in Custom Options?

versed widget
#

just changes the colour of the absorb amount, percentage is not changed

frosty holly
#

Hmm

lusty grotto
#

could just be a reference to IP's cap

#

which is 30% of total hp

#

but again, these are WAs i dont use

versed widget
#

ahhhhhhh if thats the case i think youre right!

lusty grotto
#

cause theres no reason to track IP, youre just pressing it based on rage

versed widget
#

the reason i was asking here is im new to warr so wasnt sure if 30% was something significant to warrior

#

well, if its already max shield pressing is wasting rage

#

but only relevant in lower keys i think

lusty grotto
#

knowing when its capped is only helpful if youre doing title keys etc

lusty grotto
#

you press it regardless

#

youre losing dps by NOT pressing it

versed widget
#

why? wouldnt that just go to waste?

lusty grotto
#

less Avatar resets due to AM, less outbursts

frosty holly
#

spending rage lowers cd

versed widget
#

so even if shield is capped i just press it?

lusty grotto
#

yes

#

this applies to ALL content

versed widget
#

tyvm

#

is there a guide to read on this? like wowhead or something

lusty grotto
#

it should be on both guides yes

cerulean musk
#

I'm really digging Colossus, not sure what best spec would be for Delves. Would it be a mythic+ build or a raid build?

lusty grotto
#

i dont rememeber where specifically

versed widget
#

is it better to press a capped ignore pain instead of revenge?

#

if i only have rage for 1

lusty grotto
#

yes

versed widget
#

oh wow

lusty grotto
#

in general you want to IP at 70+ rage

#

revenge you only use if SS or TC is on cd (or on the opener to apply deep wounds)

#

you dont use revenge with the thought of "using rage"

#

not as MT

#

its different as Colossus though

#

MT and IP usage has been our gameplay loop since probably SL

versed widget
#

oh im specifically talking about m+ i should have specified

lusty grotto
#

BFA as well

versed widget
#

i will read the guide though

lusty grotto
#

yes

#

it applies

#

to everything

#

every form of content

#

as Mountain Thane

pallid quiver
#

since revenge only costs 20 rage

#

and IP 35, so you'd be below 55 rage if you could only use one, so you'd hold off on doing anything with the rage unless the only thing you can do with that global is revenge

#

in which case you send revenge

lusty grotto
#

oh MT = Mountain Thane, not Main Tank in this conversation

#

in case that brought about the confusion

versed widget
#

ahhh thank you, and thank you Luerce as well

#

does it change if ive dropped mitigation talents for revenge talents to do meme damage?

lusty grotto
#

are you colossus?

versed widget
#

mountain thane

#

ill have to check the guide for the top dps talents

lusty grotto
#

you shouldnt use anything other than our builds

#

no reason to pump revenge damage

pallid quiver
#

Especially in comparison to Shield Slam and Clap/Blast

urban portal
#

what about that guy who sits on 10 stacks of demolish and never cast it

#

so his revenge was hitting like a truck

#

(none of his other spells do damage)

lusty grotto
#

for current content is fine

#

but if he does that hes losing on overall

#

and also hes losing a shitload of defensiveness

#

5% DR each stack after demolish for 10s - so losing this completely

#

not an optimal way to play

#

colossus

#

but in current content its fine, youre just bursting every 10s revenge padding

#

and nothing hurts anyway

turbid lintel
#

is this right? it reads up to 5% dr for 10 secs based on the number of stacks? DO stacks + increased dr or increased duration

lusty grotto
#

read above

turbid lintel
#

was replying when it said 50% dr and was losing it

lusty grotto
#

oh, i just removed it cause hes not actually casting demolish

#

but yeah a fully stack demolish should be like a wall

#

but i could be wrong, let me test

turbid lintel
#

jeez really? I was reading it as maximum of 10% inc damage and maximum 5% dr for x secs based on stacks but i havent been looking in game at what it actually means

lusty grotto
#

it says 10s specifically

#

you can read it in wowhead

turbid lintel
#

but it also says up to 10% and 5% specifically

#

and then seconds reads like its based on stacks

lusty grotto
#

oh yeah youre right

mighty valley
#

otherwise it would be 200% damage

#

which would be uh

#

incorrect

lusty grotto
#

seems like it would be a good buff for colossus' defensiveness

#

if it was 5% per stack

#

and since youre not waiting on 10 stacks to cast demolish anyway...

#

2% per stack would be great i guess, so its not absurd

mighty valley
#

yeah

#

would be a little awkward to have more defensive power in something that you just press on cd regardless of situation

#

but it'd be something

#

overall think they should just find some places for more rage gen, the gap is pretty huge

lusty grotto
#

i think

#

after playing it

#

its kinda fine

#

just requires a lot more emphasis on rage management

turbid lintel
turbid lintel
# lusty grotto just requires a lot more emphasis on rage management

you kind of have to run thunder roar and the bleed talent but that combo more or less makes rage gen fine. But also Brutal Vitality with 10 stacks, a revenge on a 5+ targets for me is critting for around 500k a target.

So it shoooouuuuld be refilling IP by a decent amount per revenge global on aoe pulls

lusty grotto
#

yeah i know

#

the problem is not filling up or not IP

#

its rage cycling

#

thats specifically what we were talking about

proper roost
#

gamers

#

how do i gain assembly of the deeps rep

#

if i already did weeklies and wqs and have a contract

#

i really don't want to do all the quests in the zone sadga

turbid lintel
# lusty grotto its rage cycling

I haven't played the game since like legion but i'm not sure what you mean by rage cycling. Does that mean spending rage to work towards resetting major cds

lusty grotto
#

yes

#

rage management etc

#

either way colossus is very similar to legion prot

#

but we certainly did rage management back then anyway

turbid lintel
#

I played blood in legion keks

#

I'm excited for things to speed up in dungeons. As of heroics I feel like I have more than enough time to decide if I should dump via revenge or make sure I ahve an IP saved up as colossus

mighty valley
#

I like that colossus asks for a bit more thinking, it’s slightly more fun to me

lusty grotto
#

yeah

mighty valley
#

Would be nice if that thinking gave you an advantage or a niche, not sure it will in meaningful content

lusty grotto
#

however im still probably not touching it in the season until i get a good amount of gear

proper roost
#

i wish the dirigible mount wasn't so dang stubby

#

i really like how it looks mostly 😔

turbid lintel
proper roost
#

well the main issue is that you can't pump dps if you're dead

lusty grotto

nah not for a while

on farm probably

#

dps is not a factor in these decisions

It's probably been asked before, but I'm trying to figure out what embellishments I should actually be investing in for s1. Obviously every guide is pointing at the threads, but until we actually play out high m+, I'm extremely skeptical that we will be above 80% HP often enough to get value out of them

lusty grotto
#

we're waiting on tuning untl we have a formal recommendation

sand rapids
#

Aight, thanks

lusty grotto
#

you shouldnt be concerned about the 80% thing

#

BSL was widely used in DF

sand rapids
#

True, but with the nerfs to self sustain etc, I get the feeling this season it will be different

lusty grotto
#

we're not a self sustain tank

#

those nerfs didnt hit us anywhere near as hard as others (cough prot pally)

sand rapids
#

Of course, but it was still nerfed nonetheless

lusty grotto
#

our self mit is more than enough

#

IP was also not nerfed

#

and youre not using IV nearly as enough to make a difference

#

by the time youre up on title key range, there may be some variations, but until then its uptime is more than enough

sand rapids
#

I'll keep it in mind

#

And see how my group shakes up this season

shield block is off gcd

^^

urban bane

as is avatar

Charge plus avatar and tb is enough for sb

so i charge avatar SB into ignore pain?

jagged pier
#

Only ip if your gunna cap

urban bane

dont worry about ignore pain until you are close to overcap rage

jagged pier
#

Its not somthing u think about instantly doing

sturdy dune

so Ignore pain isnt as important?

wtf

ignore pain isnt like shield block you dont hafta have it up

it is important as a way to dump rage

off the gcd

i personally think maghar orc active racial is one of the strongest in the entire game

#

very universal, always useful

#

unlike, say, undead active racial canabalize for hp and mana, not really useful to warrior or rogue, hunter

#

but its really good for priest

plush tendon
#

no race is a bad option

#

they are all pretty even in terms of DPS power and there is always some use case where their util racials are useful

#

the only time racial may matter is in high end content like pushing top PVP rank, top IO, or RWF

#

Mag'har orc also get the benefit of getting to look like Grommash Hellscream

this aint SL spear

you dont have to stand on it

optimally you want to land it on ALL your targets

ultimately do whatever feels better for you, but note that normal targetting or cursor is a bit better for M+ and dungeons

I started doing at player after the 3rd time spear went into some fuck off place in SL dungeons with all the crazy camera fuckery

the point is if you miss mobs with spear they dont get the might debuff

it wasnt an issue in SL or up to TWW prepatch because it was just a buff on you while standing in it

not a debuff on mobs

spear is the recommended talent for Thane
