I always question myself on jumping to a more progressed guild because I haven’t done the fights etc. but at the end of the day every time I’ve done it it’s like no big deal, pick it up in 3-5 pulls
Imposter syndrome is used very liberally these days are you sure you had that?
Yes
I get paid to do my job, I still feel like sometimes I don’t belong
Even though I’m obviously good enough to make it a career
You can also mark areas yogi did you know that?
I just want a dedicated group that knocks out heroic in a timely manner
Preferably one that lets me tank, but that seems impossible
yep, i am quite accustom to using the world markers
i dont want to have to use em, i wish more groups would use world markers or markers in general
What´s the word on the street regarding crafts for prot warri?
Idk you check the pins or the FAQ?
if i can do an entire key with only marking my self as square for tank and literal nothing else in the entire key, and nobody dies and we like 2 chest the key
i am over the fucking moon
I don’t ever use markers in dungeons
Sure did, just double check
I ping sometimes though
Great! Good to hear!
Make your own pug
That’s what I do
But it doesn’t hit the same as having a full squad
And pugs left me 6/8 N. I am a baby
🥺
tru
Sorry for your loss
Too much fanmail from OF girls on his old account
hush boy let the MAN speak
teleports behind you and kills you nothing personelle kid
was actually a hologram
lmao imagine getting killed by a hologram
I feel like pins have completely made markers irrelevant in most contexts
what are the best delves to run as a beginner to them
Pings*
i only need 1 zero so i will run something i know already
I love being able to ping things
the down green arrow is a universal "travel through this direction passage"
green light at traffic
I would say check out fungal folly, can get the feel for the spores in that dungeon and using them to your advantage
literal world wide irl
There's an on my way ping
markers still play a huge role imo, most people ignore pings
Also I've never had someone use the arrow to communicate walk thru here but I don't pug much
they exist for until you place it new place, and doesnt despawn, is the purpose
If u ignore pings you might be brain damaged
yeah in pugs markers are crucial for example in broodtwister heroic I did yesterday, raid lead marked the eggs
Yes for raids it has great use but dungeons less so
sometimes rarely i will put a skull x world marker for a general "kill location"
Sorry I was talking in the context of dungeons
You have meanings assigned to these markers that I'd never know happy to learn now tho
Like a location where killing is allowed?
At what point should I swap from Heavy Repercussions to Into the Fray? Sitting at 17k Haste rn
35%+
Hp is for noobs
pretty much ya, not allowed is a strong word
but its ideal spot , or whatever this is, needs to die
anyone know how to hide nameplates if they are too far above/below you? is that even a thing?
I want battle-scarred veteran. What are my options for trading talent points? thanks
dropping shield charge + champions bulwark and picking up bolster + bsv
thanks!
now that is a nice drop
no?
you can just slam 2 sockets
on every jewelery
the setting works on all pve rings and necks
so you get 6 sockets for free
so every ring and neck is viable
cuz you dont need vault socket first
well I clearly havent paid much attention lol but also not even bothered looking at them yet considering the prices of gems yet
none of my gear is enchanted or has gems right now
to cheap for that shit in this early gear
will replace it all next week most likely anyway
you can extract it from his raid WA.
nome im sorry if u addressed this before but do u think the meta .15% crit from various gem colors is worth it
it was a minor dps gain
I'll personally do the speed one I think
to zoom zoom in keys
13% haste feels so bad, cant wait to start optimizing stats
the pain of s1, low haste. But don't worry it'll start feeling good on 20-25%
o i know been a prot main since vanilla with only occassionally dabbling in other classes/specs just complaining to complain
oh yeah guys for raid purpose if there is multi adds involved like Ulgrax, Ovi'Nax and Ansurek. Is taking Crackling Thunder Talent to make TC AoE Bigger a valid move or nah no need to take the talent. the normal AoE is enough?
i mean in a raid you'll likely have 5-6 md's, i don't think gathering range will be an issue
Have any of you guys managed to kill Zekvir ?? solo since the changes?
gotten him to 40%, problem is brann just gets 1shot in p2
p1 is pretty easy / reproducible but then brann just dies
do we have chance to revive brann midfight?
not on that one
i cant realiably get through p1 my bran just wont intuprt sometimes
they need to do some fixes to bran at least
but then again could also be gear warrior isnt my main so low ilvl
Brann is... Sketchy at best.
ye if brann is on his bird he wont kick
He keeps getting hit by everything in P1 for me.
avatar removes the dot so if they line up can just wait on avatar couple secs incase brann fucks up
gotta wait for nerfs
should make him auto swap to whatever player is targeting its not as good as direct control but easier to implement
cuz its currently just bugged
yer i know
brann isnt supposed to be 1shot by spikes
but just fixing brann would be fine
He likes to not target the cocoon too.
get the big shot idol
with a bit more gear cocoon wouldnt be the problem
you can force the egg to spawn under the boss, dont really have an issue with him not targetting them
How do you force it?
push him in a corner
tank him up on the stage in a corner
i managed to get him to do it near the entrance door
for 3 eggs in a row
felt like it was pixle stacking tho
to do that there
ya anywhere that boxes him in he will do on top of himself
oh yeah meanwhile Jakey/Nome is here, can you help me with something?
if you pick the idol of final will he will 1shot egg with it
so thats not a problem
if it procs at the right time
it procs at the right time 90% of the time
if not itll just 1shot the spider instead
i was trying to use rage-filled but he consistently would die every egg spawn
what u need?
we kept wiping to final boss of arakara some reason
is there currently any spec in game who can do ,,let me solo him,, achiv? I just tried it on hunter, prot war and ddruid and tanks dont have dps for that and my hunter got 3,5M melee hit from boss, Bran is folding in 10 secs
no
#protection message
just pondering about this one.
its currently impossible
there was before the changes
because of the delve changes they hotfixed on friday
now no cause brann is the issue
i think people werent doing the oil pools right
alright, its just not me, I even had hard time with single ? as hunter, but its true I have only 570ilvl
do what u want it doesnt really matter u gunna hit most the adds anyway as they should stacked/gripped in
single should be doable and it easy tbh
might be gear

I see so normal size AoE is enough and make it bigger is just optional. Thx Jakey.
you dont have interupts for aoe poison on single ? as hunter and brann barely use his and healing is non existent on hunter. I made it with reviving pet every 10 sec heh
u dont have 2 inturpts to do on ?
he doesnt have a heal on that difficulty
so u should be able to get it everytime
maybe he still melees like crazy on ? as well

who said we prot warriors need dps buffs?
for bloodhound, the tank above should be on the right adjacent platform right? to maximize turn time for team under?
poison aoe is more ofteen than hunter 24sec kick
what is a good strategy for final boss of ara kara, that boss hurts
thats one pull, every tank can ddo that
i forgot that the webs hit for 3 million, but it turned to utter chaos
thjis btw shows all my dps whole day
so the guys in my group wasnt even top 5
they are 7 9 and 10
11*
I play multiple tanks, war is not bad dps, but other tanks do insane dps
this is a boss pull
yea dunno about the others
I know blood dk might be even better
never bothered about the rest
dont like them hahaha
youre posting detail numbers without context, can be anything tbh. Reflectable bosses/pulls are crazy good on meters forr example
yea just showing u numbers dont wanna sim to hell now what I did etc I didnt even really care I was amazed myself bro xD
I was like yo wth my damage goes brrr
in S4, ddetails like this was showed on stream andd youtoube video at academy pull(brewmaster). They get dmg nerfed and when you checked details of dps, it was 50% trinket 😄
bro I think sacbrood is also a big part of it
its a great trinket
How is fury warrior not doing one of the highest burst openers

Hi, today I got Throngus's Finger with 1144 versatility and 515 speed. Is it a good trinket?
Ok, well I'll keep it until I get something better. Thanks
Best i could do for the week. Have to go business trip and wont be back until after reset 😦
eh, the play this week is probably a socket anyway
Its 1 more delve but plane leaves in literally 7 hours and need some sleep 😮
hahaha

says the brann who lies on the floor dead 24/7, so useless xD
hahahah
This is just the DPS in your group just being lazy to press button.
its off topic but tulsa king released s2 a couple hours ago, gonna tuck myself into the sofa and just enjoy 😄
I’ve been hanging with the homie Brann so much he’s starting to leave his mark on me. What’s that smell?? 👃 lol
some furys arent that good I suppose
maybe hahaha
bois maybe im lucky but I did all 4 for today
bro I rush through the things I only get 600+ in my group to make it easier
sometimes people just dont do min maxing I suppose
just casual
which is totally fine btw
Dont attack the Fury, if you cant handle the Fury
Ya know we do, you seen our chats
hahaha
bois what ilvl should I be to get into heroic raids
wanna do heroic tomorrow as tank
I got 605 am I good to go?
620 ilvl with CE
As high as you can get, but there is no 'limit'
that's a 630 ilvl now
635 in another 2min
we still use authority of depths on weapon?
You can 100% clear it in 59x gear decently comfortably if mechs are being done
yea man it slaps
But getting into a pug that can do that is going ti be hard
are the mechanics the same as for normal
or are there some additions
And as always, pug joining reqs are somethin'
will look up a guide then to prepare
There's a few additions
For example, 2nd boss adds in a spinny laser of doom you have to deal with
my great vault doesnt show delves at all just the old raid/dungeon/pvp but pvp is blacked out and just shows checkmarks which would correspond to delve completion
ahhh yea will check out a guide for sure
1st boss is 100% the same, though
I think all the others have at least something extra for heroic
like what would be first priority and will u turn that piece to a set piece?
Weapon, shield, or tier piece/slot
Unless a miracle happens with trinket
For vault that is
what would u value higher
weapons or tier set
I mean I got 0 tier set out of normal raid
so I might go for a weapon if possible
Doubt you will have to min max tier converts
Personally I just go for weapon then shield then tier slot unless bis trinket from RNG gods
we can get dungeon trinkets out of the vault?
like sacbrood and so on?
You can get anything from dungeons out of dungeon slots
rejoined retail in tww didnt like the other expansions lol
Sacbrood vault would be epic
yea man its a insane trinket
I got the trinket from the court aswell but if meathook isnt nerfed it will stay in my bank lol
okay, well, i have 8/8 dungeon rewards for vault
but it even gets buufed
Crafting weapon and shield is never a bad thing either
Gets you near max ilvl
I'm near 2 mil
Just hoard and only buy important stuff to you
Getting a boe drop from raid is like guaranteed 400k from ah
If you got one first 2 weeks from heroic could be 600k+
I like to watch some youtube and just mine some nodes bro
thats so nice
made some bag out of it
nothing crazy but its relaxing
hahaha
That's what I do sometimes, easy 5k here and there
If you tank, hit up those random bonus queues
I did one 20min heroic got 3 items (bonus stats one time use, raiders use to min max) sold for almost 5k total
is there an agreement already on what piece of gear to craft? I se the maxroll guide say wrist and waist
kikital is going to be pug deleter on tyranical
destroyer of hopes
should be okay for classes like warlock with aoe stun
Everything is tyrannical on a +10 and above anyway so it’s just ‘normal’ from there.
Most classes have a way to get free if you are worried about the puddles. It’s the small blobs that channel on you so any freedom, displacement, stun etc effects will work. Shouldn’t be an issue.
You can even grip them as a dk to get free.
We can stormbolt, shockwave and intimidating shout
Whatever your comfortable with its a +10
yeah any stops work on the blobs, which was very nice to realize
also finally realized how the last boss of stonevault works the other day so that was fun
what spec is everyone running, i see half the logs using champ spear and half using thun roar on every fight
it’s in the guides — spear for thane, roar for colossus
Didn't get any an I've done around 30+ only this week and 200 overall
But if they only drop in bountiful only those 30 count
Raid row gives raid items from the boss your character has killed, dungeon gives random dungeon item for your loot spec, delve row gives open world/delve loot pool, but all those slots have a fixed chance to become a random tier piece
guys, im getting hit by ansurek for 4.1 mill. which ability is that?
that is in last phase
combat log should tell you the ability
that was my first thought, not sure why that last melee was so heavy though
which of the 2 has more survivability
thane
were you still tanking after getting hit with Gorge?
If they were then they would've taken more from the first one
Because they had wall for the big hit
yeah, true
and it still did 1.6 mil
if i could ask you another question what trinkets would you be running after the hook nerf ?
she also has a tank buster mechanic in her last phase
the tank with aggro gets the adds debuff so he needs to run away and she applies a debuff on the OT who taunted her off
after adds spawned just let the other tank get back
and taunt back again
while dps nukes the adds
@steel mist
lemme check rq
there u go
yeah, that should show as the ability though, not a melee
the ability isnt really the issue its the stackable physical damage stack after that
dunno if that is still shown under the ability
if you look at his log, he took a 600k melee moments before that, then had wall up for the 4 mil hit
wait he had shield wall and still got hit with 4 mill?
yeah, it's right there in the log
then the other tank let me died huh
how
without taunting off
if u had gorge on u
and he stayed on the adds
without any reason
yes then he did
but if denic is right and the whole damage application started before u even had gorge then u had either not ur shield block up or u got unlucky overkilled
but it was the same for us
as soon as the other tank gets infested
So i got screwed bec the other tank didnt taunted off of me
I KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG AND IT WASNT ME
yea it wasnt ur fault buddy
goddamn dk tank
also can't tell if it's just weird output, but keep your shield block up homie
yea ofc thats also the case
the thing is the other tank is not aware im not a dk and he thinks that i can heal it off
yeah i was full panicking mode since everyone was shouting
it was a kill
DK would have more trouble with that
yea he would
you can shave 40% of the melee damage by making sure to use SB
he's just gonna get gibbed
u always tank swap on 3rd phase
never let a tank get more stacks than 1 or 2
and when someone is infested he runs as far as he can
dps nukes
he comes back to taunt off again
at 2 stacks u taunt off again because u want to lose the debuff
its the same mechanic as liquefy
i need to get another set of weakauras to shout at me on ansurek. The discord was hectic and i couldnt concentrate on tanking with all the anxiety all over the place
while liquefy in 1st phase is even deadlier ngl
if u dont taunt immediately the tank gets RIPPED
ansurek is eaaaasy bro
its not about weakauras
u just didnt know
ansurek is a stacked boss if we are talking mechanics so yea not everyone will watch a 20 min guide just for her
while I gotta say the court is harder than her
even tho she has more mechanics
i mean court was amanageable after 9 tries
do court on heroic bro
is it that bad?
its just annoying
u need 2 groups of these linen guys
who stop him from charging
if 1 dies
rip
just rate my mog lil bros
lolwtf that looks like a monk
Why would Crit be rated higher then Vers? I see a lot of spells going on in dungeons.. am I missing something?
Crit gives parry
You also see a lot of melee going on in dungeons
They’re very close though, don’t stress about one over the other
Sure, but that's a given on all expansions but vers has been regarded higher than crit on all but now 😮
When ive looked at top players, its been vers > crit until vers"capped"
but ok, ur saying Crit is kinda equal to but a bit higher than vers. roger that 😮
Because you looked in the wrong places
Vers is overvalued on the top end
Always has been
Also idk what the vers “cap” is
Hi, where can i see the ''popular'' routes for this season? Ty 🙂
Everyone got high on 50% vers in bfa and it’s been hard to shake the “tank = vers” meme ever since
No where?
The season hasn’t even started
I mean I guess it has but m+ isn’t out yet
Yeye i know, but first exp like tank and dunno if there's some OP page for look the routes
Might be outdated info but cap refers to the penalization of stacking too much of a secondary, right?
Just hold w and don’t die from boss to boss
Don’t overthink this
There’s diminishing returns yeah but we don’t usually hit them til later in the expansion
@modest trellisBuild own routes you are comfortable with
the biggest true
And the first breakpoint is pretty minimal
10%isch?
perfect, ty 🙂 !
Idk how accurate this is anymore, it's from 9.x https://www.wowhead.com/guide/diminishing-returns-on-secondary-stats-in-world-of-warcraft
AH SHIT here we go again
But honestly, I mostly just held W in DF
??
perfect!
the olden days of DR fighting is coming back to this channel....
i can feel it comin

ohhh
i thought u meant they were hotfix putting it back in the game
didnt look at patch number
what is the best crafte gear or at least to start out
What’s up chat.
New tank just started this season. Running through mythics pretty well at the moment.
I want to do raid tanking as well, is it a lot harder than mythics? Or is it just knowing the fights? Seems so stressful
New tank as well; how did you navigate the dungeons or did you do em all in previous xpac? I’ve never touched retail until Dragonflight so I have performance anxiety when it comes to learning routes etc for the season 1 dungeons.
Find routes online, see what top players do, and experience
That’s basically it
Thank you 🙏
What's the situations in which you would run the Execute over the Punish build in raid and visa versa?
Do you want more damage? Run Execute.
Raid tanking is honestly a lot easier — it’s basically possible to learn each fight like a script
much more telegraphed damage, it’s a lot easier
And the rest of the players will probably take a lot longer to figure out each fight’s mechanics than you will, tanks usually dont have to deal with the more complicated mechanics
Execute build = more damage, less tanky;
Punish build = less damage, more tanky.
That's about it.
I just read about ubisoft and their hiring processs for aspirantss lol, thats end for me, no more ubisoft games
That’s encouraging I’ve held off on queuing for raids
Where should I be ilvl to tank heroic? I’m 590 atm
That should be fine but idk how picky pugs are about heroic right now
So what's the difference between the two Hero Talent builds? Or is it just personal preference?
Thane = more IP, Colossus = more damage
Both of them are fine in Raid.
Colossus is a more agressive choice with less rage going around.
MT is the better "over-all" performer due to being a solid middle ground of offensive and defensive capabilities.
you will probably find an easier time playing thane
but there is absolutely nothing wrong with colossus
Yeah, just have to nail demolish, sucks if you miss with it
How big a gain is stance dancing? It's not something I've done in a while
3% crit
Fully acknowledging that they're not recommended, has anyone done the math on Reinforced Wax Plating / Ceaseless Swarmgland to find out what actual amount of mitigation they avg
hey guys I have some question, I have an addon for bis items , and they show haste/mastery as bis for prot war... I`m trying to build crit/haste .. what i think is Bis for me .. any suggestions?
your addon is probably giving you inaccurate information
mastery is our worst stat but after haste, everything is sort of equal, with mastery coming last
you just want bigger amount of secondary stats total
I saw aotc required on day 2
On a literal, non-meme level
that's why i keep saying you need 630 ilvl and CE by now
have you guys been upgrading your veteran + gear or saving the crests for now?
if im pulling aggro off other tank in raid, just doing my rotation, is that a me problem? do i go afk until it smy turn to tank?
It's technically other tank problem, as doing dps is directly related to your survival
ok thanks, just making sure when i said it was the other tank issue, i wasnt being a nutsack
I used to recommend hurting yourself by going into def stance, but
hm i was in def stance the whole time
At any rate, if you still want to clear, you have to find something about it
to help the problem
Def stance will not help it anymore
The 3% crit is not gonna make up people not oressing buttons
It barely helped when it reduced damage by like 10%
Since you need to have like double the other tank's damage to pull off or something
Best tier set bonusses ever 🙄
yeah ther was a bear tank doing 100k dps, and then repalce him with a pally who did better but ocsaioanly was pulling off him too
if youre pulling agro, thats a problem with the other tank
and/or gear disparity
its very common, since not everyone plays correctly
Sim yourself for damage and what the sim tells you
the only thing you can do on that scenario is to stop pressing buttons
if the higher damage tank is pulling first and the other is taunting off, the damage disparity has to be insane for the first tank to pull back
but
maybe it is
Only case is if a tank has their gear broken
some do damage from levelling from the previous expansion
I saw a prepatch mistweaver doing shadowlands damage
That was crazy
4.6k in m+
That wouldn’t even have put him in top 100 in castle nathria
Maybe suggest they add "taunt" into their early rotation
whats the point of diminishing return for stats now?
wdym
the point is to not stack a single stat
as it always has been
or to deter that
I have seen a few prot warriors running Colossus over Thane. Any reason?
The warriors running Colossus are also running with Spear
im getting tired of the lock animation from demolish
even tho i love colossus
its making me loose it
Big thunderclap and applied rend is the prot warrior stereotype for me. I loved it in wrath
I wish they would remove rend and put in a more thunderclap thematic dot though
Like a lightning damage dot
Probably just like the BDE of Demolish, not sure why spear though as the numbers suggest roar is the go to
I tend to play more with Thane cause I like the thunder stomping.
Or redo thunderclap as a stomp shockwave and make the bleed make sense
wowhead guide has a hero comparison
So Colossus is mainly for them to do bigger ST dps?
so i have to do delves ya
feel free to look at it
if someone wants to pay you for a not some very rare item - always trade
i think i read it was pretty bad for pretty much all warrior specs
but nobody seemed to want it, got it now
Been looking for an answer related to the value of Into the Fray and what the breakpoint for running it may be. Sims for dps are one thing, but i assume the haste i gain has a defensive benefit as well yes?
hey im new to prot warrior, was just wondering if we stack haste till forever or we stop at some point du.e because of diminishing returns
You can't get it this season, worry about it in s2
But for raids you should be using it regardless
there is not much more for me to get for now im 604 and wanted to optimize a bit
For dungeons you run heavy rep
Then yes stack haste
Hard to think you won't get more ilvl
At 604
how come my volatile concoction weakaura doesnt trigger?
ty nimchimp
Thats a question for weakaura discord

How’d everyone enjoy the raid so far?
It's a good raid
@lusty grotto Ive heard the value 20k floating around for ITF value for M+, wasnt sure if that was the number to shoot for.
No it's more than that
Was trying to math out if it was even possible
We got 8/8n and 4/8h lastnight hopefully finish it off today on night 2
roger
wait, does shield slam do more dps than execute?
so am i lowering my dps by using execute every time i got 40 rage? lmao
Most of the top parses in raid atm are playing execute build, but you sacrifice so much defensively
but their shield slam is beating their execute still
No you’re not, but you should always hit SS if it’s up, then use execute to proc SS
but my execute is doing more than my shield slam?
You keeping SB up?
Execute to proc SS sorry
Anyone got a best usage for bloody coins on gear? I don't pvp but the 594 stuff is hard to pass up
Execute will do more damage or atleast on par damage, but SS is always a priority as you need rage to use execute
okay so im thinking imma drop indomitable for bolster
outburst doesnt apply to execute
think about that
and execute is only available on procs with SD, and/or in a portion of the fight
so of course SS is gonna beat it
If you’re worried about shield block uptime just run heavy repercussion assuming you’re talking about raid
yeah im screwing up my shield uptime pretty sure also i think my kills might be slow, comparing my execute and ss casts with other people
M+ you should be running heavy repercussions anyway
Most people with massive execute damage are running the execute build or having really long fights.
yeah or rasha'nan
huge execute fight
@soft plume If you’re going to try execute builds play mountain thane, you won’t get the rage generation in colossus to do it
You’ll sacrifice too much mitigation
mitigation not an issue on heroic difficulty its all g
GB boss 2 area trash
oof
yeah queen liquefy hurts hard af but other than that its chill
next week even that'll be a joke
Heroic dungeon or raid?
what do yall like for solo delves? fury vs prot?
well fuck me if i try zekvir lair in prot again lol
people do heroic dungeons?
okay, i ran grim batol now
is it possible to even have over 90% shield block uptime if you're not running any shield block talents? 2 charges and shield charge dont seem to cut it but i could be doing something wrong
boss was done wrong though
i think imma run enduring defenses instead of massacre since execute procs all the time anyway
last stand is kind of a healing potion now isnt it
okay the top parse for 2nd boss only has like 60% uptime on shield block so i think thats literally just how it is with that massacre build
How much ilvls is tier worth?
yeah without HR you cannot guarantee 100% SB uptime currently, just the way it is in raids
If you’re too worried about execute for parses you risk getting clapped by the boss
Hey guys, just arrived on Ansurek HC, pulled it twice and my raid disbanded (we pulled for hours to kill court). Any major tip for the fight? From the pulls i did it seems to hurt A LOT.
heroic bosses aint clapping any prot warrior unless they're afk
Hmmm, how far in have you went?
Goodluck on a few if all you want to do is damage parse.
any tips @soft plume ? didnt die from liquefy but defstance+Spellblock didnt feel good enough and i was saving SW for feast which in never had on me
shield slam and ignore pain a lot lul
x)
i didnt run spell block idk if it works for the dot
think it works for the cast ?
i never NEEDED shield wall and usually just held it for oh shit moments
if ur puniish stacks and shield block are up u can last demo shout and spell reflect and be fine
demo shout is up every liquefy
spell reflect is more magic resist
aight, only pulled twice, will see how it goes tommorow, i'm only got 27% base haste so far, will try to mash keyboard hard 😉
It’s just gonna hurt like hell, shield all and last stand before it if you can so you you can front load bigger ip
Anything where you’re struggling for survivability play mountain thane over colossus
Also are you running defensive stance?
damnit
my friend got the trink from necrotic wake and he wasnt able to trade it to me
Hey, does anyone know if Gorge on P3 of queen is blockable?
2nd flag from the top
TLDR: nope
it is blockable
oh it is?
yes
oh, i realized i can go look at my normal log
TLDR: don't rely on TLDR
in heroic brood, the pools from one section creeps into other section eventually, right?
or does the pool stop at the edge?
Has anyone gotten Delver's Journey maxed yet?
Is it even possible, yet? That's a better question.
oof, that'd be a grind
You shouldn’t ever be holding your cd for a mechanic you shouldn’t get lol
Ok well, sorry for the delay, we actually ended up getting a p3 pull, and i cannot tell if i blocked or not here
youre not gonna get high uptime with ITF
youre looking at this completely wrong in a raid setting
check logs and check effective uptime
thats the only thing that matters in raid
once you get gear worry about overall uptime
sorry i have like 3 seconds to look at logs between pulls and didnt see the b, yeah gorge is blockable
they stop
oh ok thank god
at least in heroic
we'll see in mythic
thats what the section division lines are for
are weeklies useless after the reset?
wat u mean
i mean i do it for renown personally never really got much power from them
You won’t get any real power from them. Just some rep etc
Ok so i just ran this 8 delv and got the trinket on the left its 603 and the trinkets on the right are my current trinkets should i trade one of them out or keep the ones i have?
the trinkets on the right are both vet gear
ye finally i got Spare Meat Hook 2 days before it gets nerfed to the ground 😄
no luck with egg 😦
they only applied the tank trinket nerf
Since rep is accountwide, it kinda owns to have maxed renown if you level a new alt
its like insta multiple keys + vet/champ track gear
i'm not gonna do all of them, but prob like 2 chests per week, prob not bad
with my luck, it will take several weeks to get that trinket in m+
nim i finished half of heroic and all of normal and the only loot I got was a curio
mad... 
mad and sad
the very rare rashananana cloak dropped
and i lost it with a 98
to the mage who died all night to avoidable mechanics...
anyone has a weakauras to tell you the tank mechanics? i think is a co-tank weakauras

reloe
The worse you perform the better your loot, you should know this by now
search reloe on wago
thanks 😄
anyways as an aside i am going to seriously start learning spanish next week because i keep needing it for my job
but also for keys so i understand spanglish
😎
great movie
gonna speedrun literacy
Hate that. Same thing, rolled a 97, actually went into my bags looking for it (treacherous transmitter) till I realised someone else rolled a 100
yes
the worst part was definitely me going like "ah nice i won the very rare thing, i can upgrade it insta cuz this thing owns"
haha yep!
like 1 minute later the guy finally clicks on the roll
and wins with a 99
fucked up..
pow, right in the feels
searched his whole user imports, only found this as a relevant:

But... this is a full weakauras i think?
Assignment Auras Link: https://wago.io/NSNerubarPalace Some sounds I use require you to have this addon installed (will
what's it do...?
its a raid pack, he does that every season
since... i cant remember
probably before SL
Just tell you when to do stuff in the fights?
no
it doesnt play the game for you
if youre pugging its always good to have it
alongside bigwigs or DBM
ill have to set it up, but usually i just use BigWigs and Raid Ability Timeline to see the stuff
that doesnt replace aything bigwigs does
Damn, I got hero wep, hero shield, champ special cape and a few other items plus tier chest
it just puts debuffs bigger, etc etc
yeah well i have extremely badluck
i got loot, just not WUE loot
I normally do, but rc loot Council helped so people couldn’t just snag minor upgrades
tier pants, court 2 hander amongst other things
you normally get WUE loot?
but this is the first tier with it
warband until equipped = WUE
warbound*
No, have bad luck sorry
oh
I didn’t get any warbound loot
this is literally the most privileged complaint ever
u stinky
next ur gonna complain about your prot weapon
WUE tier i mean
Smh..
for that sweet sweet 2% dps increase
the only thing that matters is that we're going to do 10s next week
Stuff the 10s
I imagine so
Don't see why not
You can get them from every other slot generally
is it worth crafting a spark shield??
🤷
honestly i just changed BigWigs to make a countdown for the tank swap, idk, that fight gets chaotic for me in Silken Council
now imagine having to do webs smh
while your co-webber has like 2 fps
shit's FUCKED
Yeah council is pretty intense
Should have a crack at it on heroic tonight
Court not bad killed it on second attempt with a pug
Princess actually gives pugs more issues
And brood
And queen
raid seems kinda easy if pugs are already clearing
Norm or hero? Fair effort killing it second attempt in a pug on heroic
thats called winning the pug lottery
i didn't expect that
Heroic
Struth
s2/s3 heroic pugs def didn't clear except very rarely until
Nah I always get aotc with pugs first week
This time will be close tho. Queen seems to give some issues
evil yogi
Bizarro Yogi
Yeah we got 8/8n and 4/8h lastnight. Had 1 wipe on queen because everyone got eaten. Rest were 1 shots, just ran out of time.
Hopefully finish up the rest tonight
28 pulls queen heroic best I got to was 56% phase two lol
Will get her tomorrow tho prob
Don’t you raid in a guild team? Pugging gives me aids
Nah just pugs..
I’m only in a guild cuz they pay for my repairs and give me 10k daily
Wish I had your mental strength
Get too many nuffies and too much time between pulls
If you get week 1 Aotc that will be solid though, don’t think a lot of people have got it yet that I’ve seen. Especially purely pugging
Princess is slicing many pugs as we type
Pugs are better than most of my guildies tbf
Yah I actually do better with pugs
Yeah, if your lead is ruthless pugs can be easier, there’s no guilt like in a guild group.
Every guild I join it too soft
And weak
I find myself like wtf is wrong with these people
And rip threat off the other tank
The officers gf is sitting at the bottom of the meters hanging with the healers
It’s annoying
Yeah and nepotism shit
I just say f it and find good pugs
Where people are ruthless sometimes yeah but it’s necessary to win
Everyone in our group was 70% or higher on parses lastnight so all smooth sailing
Yah don’t get me wrong good guilds all power to you
But I just find myself more of a lone wolf it seems
Hard to find and get spots in
Been there before
i couldnt willingly go to pugs, the lack of actual communication would make those fights harder than it already is
The communication in pugs is there to be honest
It’s a lot more visceral even
Don’t have to worry about feelings and shit
oh wait I remember what happened to your guild in s2 df
💀
apb man
i think you might sometimes be responsible here
Yah my guild fell apart
this may be a slightly one sided retelling
Nah Diablo 4 killed my guild
I'm literally making a second guild rn and slowly leeching the decent players off from the main because I dont want to confront the shitters
I’m actually a very strong and well liked guildie
🤔
I am the problem
Oh no
It is true I have made many enemies in the pug world tho I cannot deny it
Why you have to get apb started
Such is the price
🤔
How you like colossus apb
apb didn't you get into an argument with a guy in a s2 key for like 2 hours
Yes
Feel like that semi fulfills what you wanted in a warrior through df
i remember like pages of this argument you had
i was like, at work, read you started this argument, got off work, 2 hours later it was still going or smth
If you aren’t arguing then are you even living?
If you stand for nothing then what will you fight for?
There’s been plenty of those throughout my time here. Or philosophical rants about blue text
i do raids with guilds because i like the social aspect of it
I actually prefer colossus to be honest just wish it had more rage generation
I enjoy the build up to a big demolish
Yeah, same mostly. I just went from a really fun Aotc/early mythic team to a ce team in my guild
Yeah rage gen is the problem, sometimes it feels like you’re getting punched in the face and have no ability to defend it.
I’ve played demolish arms warr a lot in PvP and it’s actually very fun to spear a dude and demolish them
They squirm
And can’t do shit
Then demolished for 3 mil crit
my BDK cotank gets like 15sec of aggro then loses it after taunt
No edging bro wth
lol
Are guardians bursty in the first few global of a fight?
yes
they need to either
Cuz I was doing tons more overall
Yeah
Ok I’ll ask over there
elune or dotc?
No clue I’ll check in with him
elune can be big burst with incarn/rage/beam/etc
but
not as big as dotc burst im guessing
Maybe that was it. Cuz in my DH I’m setting up frailty and stuff before the first couple demon surges
Tyty
i have to tank first in my guild because i out-threat my prot paladin xD
Still gotta build souls for the spirit bomb and stuff
I literally mean like the first 5 global
Cuz other than that I didn’t have an issue
yeah i guess
i havent really played aldrachi, or dotc
im guessing ill like dotc way too much
but idk if aldrachi will beat FS
shit is too fun
i did it as ret
Lysander aint a bystander
Im not even allowed to que for heroic
is requiring people in your guild to not be asleep at the wheel during fights
a casual guild
or a semi-serious guild

oh, I did
prob gonna start a guild with my friends
since enough people are returning this expac
I felt quite squishy on pwar during mythic 0s at the start of this week
Is the only way people have 619 crests by spending their heroic crests? Like no free craft besides Spiderman renown right
Meant crafts not crests there
oh
so a runed crest craft is basically the entire week's cap on it
cause iirc they upped from 60 to 90 on heroic level crests
so yeah id figure youre right
until they make the quest to kill queen (if it happens)
yeah, bit of a bummer it's not available this week
that reward is going to lose value fairly rapidly
Lol big rip right, This trinket is terrible or am i missing something?
🤷
sim it
but if you dont have any other hero track trinket you will most likely equip it
How would that even sim
The effect is going to be super dependent on how many mobs you're hitting
1 target patchwerk 3 mins (or 5 mins) for ST/Raid
5 target patchwerk 1 min (or 1.5 mins) for AOE/M+
you can sim different numbers of targets
just a fyi
Yeah but it's pretty random
and there's so many of them...
there are many random effects that sims take into account
I also got:
and the healing is soo low
But at least that one gives strenght. The wick one is only crit
isn't it on tuesday morning
yes harrow, its 12:07 edt
So zekvir is still basically not possible for us on ?? right
i didn't think it would launch til after tuesday maintenance but p'raps i am wrong
its possible
several people have done it
It's possible but not worth it unless your entire group is close to or maxed out
Solo is possible for us?
idk about grouped
I must truly be missing something
yes several people have done it solo
