90+ rage is emergency rage dump, IP SB
i mean they probably just didn't play DF prot warrior very seriously
not emergency but its you immediately dump at 90 range rages
i mean i literally started at s4 df so yeah probably
don't be mean
also it's a little mean please.
ok you can be mean
and i 100% remember mentioning execute
you probably did, but i was learning a lot and probably forgot
so would you kindly tell me when i'm supposed to use it in my rotation so i can correct myself?

MDT Route...
oh no, were too late
its already begun
because it is quite literally dead last according to the wowhead guide
it may not look like it but the undead have already begun to spread
well yeah, spenders come last after generators
this entire meme must be purged
scatter
this hasnt changed
ss > tc > rev/exe
where
rev/exe means rev ======== exe
its literally the same rotation as we do now
i guess the last two steps on the rotation guide are a little confusing
mildly yes
Warrior Just zug zug ,SS, SB, IP zug zug , repeat and send it
4 targets or less > exe
5 or more RV
its probably 4 now
is the NW trash from 1 > 2 easier now due to that we have spell block???
since execute is buffed
like i said i literally got the impression it'd be better to fish for shield slam resets with revenge because of the rotational guide. i get it now that it's explained to me, but in my head i was like "oh yeah, revenge uses less rage and is free sometimes so it'll let me get a shield slam which is higher prio and save rage for ignore pain/shield slam which is higher up
and kick like tons of it
yogi have you taken a look at Sense's reflect/blockable/spellblockable sheet?
youve been in this channel too long to NOT have
execute can also reset ss, so they just change out at low targets
no, but u say u guys arent afraid of this part of the dungeon, i was back then
Itโs still a healing absorb even with spell block for the necrotic bolt casts. The -%hp bleeds are rough and hit hard.
i wonder if it changed a bit more favorably for us for having spell block
ahh this is the crucial piece that i probably missed that would've corrected this behavior sooner. that is entirely my bad
thank you
makes sense!
The dangerous parts of NW is the first pull if you go all out and the double pull upstairs. The rest is fine.
i still think they removed the jump from jumpy boys
i havent done a single NW that they've jumped
ya, i remember the trash in section i was saying giving my groups grief
I havent done a single nw ๐ฆ
It feels like it when they changed the trash locations after 2nd boss
and you cant get the robot buff now, i think, i did heroic on ppal
They still jumped on beta
what even did they change for NW
anyway we will find out soon enough
is colossus being better after the buff or nah?
cuz i know all the abilities that can happen in that dungeon,
You have 3 spears, 2 or 3 shields and 3 silence orbs now only. Spears donโt do a lot of damage but give a 20% damage taken debuff on targets and it stacks (use all spears on 3rd boss).
im curious what the drawing was indicating
Those 2 packs changed position
location swaps
that giant skelly boi at the end of the bridge was a bit of a pain in the ass
Big guy guards the stars and the trash pack that was there has been moved up and you canโt skip it without invis
bonestormy is now in the stairs
He is easy though
if he dont pat, then its whatever
cuz those packs, really, are just kick them into spell locked and group up and blender
do you mean nar'zudah?
thats the one in scared of, that area
Itโs a dispel
seeing as we're gonna need extra %
after the bridge though is the casters packs i mean, there 3 packs that can pull after the bridge corner
tons of casterse in that
You will pull the 2 shield guys into the corner pack to get the spear there
Might end up pulling stuff into the new caster pack afterwards. TBD
Purple wonโt pull no
The other thing to note is that you still don't want to overspend on execute, since you'll rage starve yourself and have to sit on empty globals, slowing your rage gen. So it's an awkward balancing act, since you want to send as many executes as possible, but you don't want to sit there with your thumb up your ass because you blew all 40 of your rage on execute and didn't get a reset, and TC is seven years from cooling down, no avatar to get it reset, etc
pets dont pull if they arent in combat
mostly its ranged the pull it
that pack is sensitive, and pulls easily
is what i am saying
no
no accesories
it can go on cloak though
i need to earn runed's so ya
oh btw just to touch base here, we still do ignore into the fray if our haste isnt high enough in the raid build right?
it can go on shield too, so banned items are weapon + neck + ring
I'd always run fray in raid since ur not always tanking
correct
you can still get 40+ secs uptime without it
you run ITF in raid, regardless of haste
here the good dungeons that should be s1 the others need to get sent back for redesign
gotcha thanks
u dont like darkflame
candles annoying
city of threads is real chill
dawnbreaker needs to be deleted though
No
at least we all agree dawnbreaker sux
Lost me at darkflame
i think its fine
Dawnbreaker is not actually that awful
it's just kind of a worse court of stars
but court of stars is good actually
๐
yeah on release it was yellow bad
maybe even orange red
but the lime apple green fruit roll up is enough for me to make it yellow ish and not green
after the map fix i am way happier with it but its still a bit of a nightmare to run at times
thought this could be nice in M+ ? or is this a trap!?
It literally doesn't show up on Bloodmallet, at all.
Huge bait. If that works the way it reads
25k worth of DR is worthless when your health is 9 million. ๐
if you are getitng hit 70 or 80 times by mobs in big pulls it adds up
I'm currently using it but thats cause I cant get an m0 sacbrood
I've also heard it work pre-mit as well, which if that's the case, it's even fucking worse than people are saying
No crafted gears sitting on 1990 valorstones
I have 2 crafted pieces, 2000 valorstones and 3 of these
why burn your gold and shards on crafted
That's only about 2 million negated, assuming it's a flat DR after mitigation for every single Melee. You can get 2 million back with last stand which most people don't press often enough anyway.
If you've got nothing else, use it but, if you have any damage trinkets it's going to be a much beter choice every time.
We'll get more shards.. I crafted a shield which will be a safe bet and i have millions of gold
i also crafted the binding of bindings ring for some socket action and another safe bet
no crafted ๐
how do you block ppl on here?
no crafts ๐
That is infinitely too much mastery lol
so?
yup ill use it, o perhaps wont spend any crest on it though for now .
How the fck you all get good weapon
but was kinda waste upgrading it, pretty sure crafted wep with ascension next week is just way better
then don't have to use these shitty 80% embells
I'm looking for a discussion on Colossus vs Moutain Thane for prot is there any guides here?
but yeah take a look at the protection-faq channel on the left
lots of helpful guides
nice heroic luck, I lost the sikran sword with speed to a DK that was playing Unholy 
Got it thanks
yea didn't get anything on normal and thought week was doomed, but hc loot was good
but i don't think I'll kill queen with randoms this week xd
yeah, I did first 4 in that group, but they weren't gonna go any further
took entirely too many attempts on bloodbound / sikran to even sniff killing beyond rashanan
yea just have to hop around grps and hope ppl are decent
i think the next 3 all took me like 20 pulls
princess and brood don't look bad
gets easier if you're slapping too, we had people panicking in the middle phase
then it just cascades when you lose 1-2
yea
i went to water works 8 with a team
i totally forgot about the fire breath so that got me 2 or 3 times, other than that, we finished the delve tier 8 boutyful
How long did i took you?
20 ish minutes, bit less
All delves 20 min in party 0% fail. The only exception is the one in North spider zone where you have yo kill 3x running bosses that have unlimited hp
just logged on and it gave me 39 runed crests, weird
That happened to me too! No idea why lol
hax
got a veteran ring
its crit mastery vers some bs
what tier delve, do i need to run, for the great vaut, to drop the next tier, track i guess, past veteran.
ok, i guess i can run one more 8 delve, i know that water one a little bit now
i think they have to be bountiful tbh
but i dont have the have the delvers bount
i just have to have a key, do it, use key
i think
I believe in you yogi you can do it
uhh they do, i think
No you just need to do them on tier 8
You can do 8 fungal folly s
Which is usually the fastest one
well, i went to normal delve did 8, then i did 8 water
Can i drop ravager and Go for Veteran instead ?
maybe not, ill go run more anyways a couple not too many
No that's illegal
its warcrimes even
you can do anything ๐
small war crimes but warcrimes (of raid)
what about t9 delve
or is it better to do / spam 8 delv
t9 does nothing
no
Did anyone encountered issues with tankbuster on nexus-princess? I wasn't sure why it was hiting me quite hard, but then I've checked logs and turns out I couldnt block any hit of that. I've had shield block up but I didn't block any physical hits or magical (when spell block was up). According to Sense's sheet both should be blockable.
hmm
im not sure, you might need to ping sense
it says spell blockable
and void shredders being blockable
im assuming you mean that
yea, and thats reasonable, that our mitigation works on tankbuster
yes, void shredders
can you link the log
can't, guild have it blocked, but I can show screenshot of events (thats physical part, id 440413)
hmm
and it was like that on all pulls, so it wasn't some single turn back or something
Do our BiS trinkets change with the tuning?
I think it's mostly IP (and swarmlord) doing the job, on magic one there isn't much diff between one with spellblock and one without
why the fuck is sidearm a choice node with barbarian training
or w/e
what is the design philosophy of this fucking talent
yes, block on dot works
is it even used by colossus atleast?
then without seeing the log, i guess you should talk to sense
I mean If i will be super far behind If i dont Take ravager
I dont Like this Button bloat
Yes you will
ST no, like 2-3%, aoe yes
veteran is a nice training wheel for mythic+ noobies, i used it a little. there was a build floating around in dragonflight that also had last stand grant shield block. ravager generates so much fucking rage and does so much fucking damage
please do not old yeller ravager
if you really want veteran i assume (ask better players) it'd be better to kill something like focused vigor. (underneath into the fray choice node)
What do you think of taking ravager but dropping spear of might?
He just really wants less active buttons to press
if you want less buttons to press, dont play prot warrior
if your goal is to reduce buttons pressed, uhh, fuck, i assume first on the chopping block would be something like rallying cry
but even then i'd shit my pants dropping that
Hey man guardian druids require like at least 4 buttons
I Just Stick to my Guardian Druid then
why am i flung 500 yards in the broodtwitster mobs?
Nah man i found prot interesting but this Button bloat is annoying
It's honestly not that bad
not a bad idea. don't conform to the meta, play what you enjoy. unfortunately warrior has too many very important buttons in my experience. the only things i can probably live without is like heroic leap and rallying cry as i said, but emphasis on live without. heroic leap is such a fun mobility skill that's on perma cd for me and the amount of oh shit buttons lets me play foolishly in like, t11 delves and stuff
Evening peeps. Is there any haste cap this season or should I Just pimp it up? Im at 9k atm
no
have fun!!!
i noticed we switched to into the fray in df when shield block was like, a 12 sec cd. maybe aim for that before switching off heavy repurcussions? ask nim he's infinitely wiser
Thanks for your Help and words of guidance man ๐คโฃ๏ธ
i'm at 14k and still using heavy repurcussions
Nim likes to keep it simple
Don't be mean
yeah worry about ITF swaps and caps in s2
you cant reach those right now with proper gearing
True
Kinda foolish thinking I was anywhere close anyways ๐
I wonder who's gonna be the delve companion in s2. I hope it's Alleria she is so cool and strong and cute
They are stinky and dumb
indeed
I don't want to be friends with stinky dumb things ๐ฆ
do not look below alleria's waistline i have not seen her shower ever
or any character for that matter
brann's unwashed ass

if any azerothian says no cap to me i am throwing them on a land mine stomach first

subway surfers creeps up on the lower half of your screen every combat encounter
reinforced wx plating any good i got it on hero track
Bottom half subway surfers top half Family Guy compilation 1083
its aight, ilvl>everything rn
skibidi toilet that cringe gyatt
figured delves gave me that and a wax canlde for crit
don't worry about optimizations for trinkets until the ilvls are high enough
"Hey Champion what do you think about my mom? I heard Brann saying she got that GYATT"
figured ilvl over whatever else but i have a budy sayingits dog shit so
is there a specificpiece to craft ith thesoarks i have or no
i learn. i am becoming a low tier helper. i sponge bath the mods and answer filler questions unworthy of your time
Shouldn't you finish with yogi first
nano that aint fucking happening
little do you know i'm one minor inconvience away from killing myself at the drop of a hat
Mistcaller
Addressed an issue where Dodgeball was inflicting damage to unintended targets.
damn cant hit the adds with the dodgeball anymore
all it takes is the grocery store to be out of stock for one thing on my list
or for me to stub my toe
Based and Warriorpilled
i have to have carry for person to solve the mist boss 2 adds
lol you can get out of the black puddles with a kick now
on last boss in ara kara
easymode
healer main mindset
Trinkets are one of the few item types to ignore ilvl due to their unique effects they provide as compared to just stats. Generally, unless you're looking for a defensive trinket, you just have to sim trinkets to see which you should rock. The wax plating one serves almost entirely as a primary stat stick, since its effect is garbage bin level
Ara Ara is still too hard for Mouthbreathers
i will recommend retail over classic on one fact and one fact alone, fuck whoever decided classic battle shout NEEDS to be 2 minutes
ROFL
Though as a follow up, ilvl is still generally preferred, especially when there's no stand-out amazing trinkets like now
fucking good, actually
they know what is to come!
i told u ppl will learn to hate this dungeon
You're banned from yak'in up like half the time in an outside instance
from the day i first run it
It feels like shit
I had to solo arakara last boss from like 80% because my group was full of Russians and they deserved to suffer
Not many wow players have that
mythic+ has made me mildly discriminatory
Based
if i see like, a brazillian server or something i am overcome with fear
Hating French/Russian/Portuguese players is absolutely normal
i wonder how they stereotype us
like off the top of my head in league if you're in NA at all you're worthless and should end it all as a player
XXXX-Area52 joins the group
Well fellas just happened again was in a raid group with another warrior on Bloodbound Horror in defensive stance and I ripped aggro and got accused of taunting
unbind all abilities so you dont rip next question
chances are your dps arent doing enough to rip off your autos anyways
lol right
Stop refreshing Shield Block
lmao
set grandma on fire so you have a reason to afk mid fight
At least they accused you of taunting instead of saying you need to improve your aggro control or some shit.
Most puggers probably don't know it increases SS damage
Oh I am sure
That was my, let's go with favorite, reason for being kicked from a group
no kidding right
People really hold tanking to some mysticism standard
We were talking about this earlier
other tank btw was doing 92k I was doing about 200k LMAO
"Tanking is the hardest part of the game" every tank to make himself important so he doesn't get replaced
same with healers
"U LITERAELLY CANT DO CONTENT WITHOUT US!!"
every healer
Fury when trying to do ST
Fury nerfs prematurely applied I see
i have a feeling that now that people are seeing 1 million dmg taken, done or healed in a single action, they get an ego about them selves
It's so over fury bros
lol
thats my conspiracy
no just really bad fury
Na, fury Mains will try to convince you that's how their spec is now
That's how big 3% are
did he died maybe?
Good
Your mom's a fury main
GOTTEM
More like a furry main
damn shots fired
Lmao
Nah she'd prolly play druid or hunter
It was really funny peeking into Fury chat after the 2nd nerf hit
usually if i go into LFR and my dps is that bad its cuz i ate a fuck load of stuns
go as fury i m ean
Don't eat them before going into lfr yogi
Now? Ego? WoW players don't need things like that for ego. They'll simply have an ego and anything that challenges that is shit, stupid, etc. Though using much harsher words.
i dont tank raids much these days
I remember in legion I was tanking for this guild and the GM/RL/MT was also a prot
Who according to him was absolutely the best prot on the server
Dude got so incredibly mad that I got mage Tower before him he benches me for 2 ids
"Trying out a few people to see if 2 different tanks is better"
thats a nice 61 gold
Fucking Guy
Umm I don't think i am suposed to be getting these right?
afaik you get those from map chests
Yes you can get them from tier 8 maps
You can get those from map delves
Well, that is where i got them so that makes sense. I just thought it was wierd to get Mythic raid crests when teh raid is not out yet
welp
85 gold is 85 gold
610 though fuck me
A/s/l?
well, what in there would kill a yogi
i stood in the breathe fire 3 times in waterwork
we made it apperently
if its circles on the ground im usually okay
Brann buffies when
pizza mechanics i can do,, sometimes
Trueeee.
oohhhhhhh i didnt like this one lol
i might go to another one after seeing yt of it
Do Protection Warriors use rend? Not a single Guide mentions it in the Rotation
tclap applies rend
Ay thx
bail?, i bailed, i dont really know what that means, but it sure looks like bad omen to me. used up revive maybe?
It just means you won't get full rewards
If it was bountiful for them, it won't be for you
Why not just leave
The awkward moment when you log back in and they're just staring at you

But yeah, just leave
I fucking hate people that dc , just leave Jesus Christ it's not hard
I consider it worse than just straight up leaving
By a lot
Its an mmo just say grandmas on fire and leave its easy
does heroic throw gen as much aggro as taunt?
trying to fgiure out how to easily pick up spiders in brood
taunt doesn't generate aggro
It forces something to attack you and dramatically boosts your threat gains against the target
For a realistic answer to your question, if a DPS starts blasting it,
no heroic throw will not generate enough aggro to pull a spider to you
I just play mountain thane for that fight and held a thunder blast for them
Also was getting 25-30mil extra damage on silken council p1 by holding the spider chick and spell reflecting her poison bolts
as long as this delve i did counts for vault i dont care
Handy help for anyone progging her
other prot warr in my heroic queen pug playing bolster over spell block..
wat the fuk..
Nooooooooo
what is going on here
apb stuck in purgatory again
sigh, log it if you can i guess
yeah i gues si have to hold on to TB
does it gen aggro as soon as the model appears?
Easiest way I found to do it
or do i have to wait for the nameplate to show before aggro gens?
Honestly unsure, I just popped it once I saw nameplate
ok ill try that
Generally you tank the boss near 2 eggs and only need to grab 1 anyway, so Iโd passively aoe the 2 near me and either taunt or leap to the other.
so at least one item from vault can be a hero this week
Leap to add, tc, maybe shield slam then charge back to boss.
ive been SC and taunting them to be safe
people apprently get it before i do and insta die
imma gettin 616 candle leech
If you currently have the boss and arenโt near tank buster you can distrusting shout
so, vault caps at t8 delves ya
i might be ble to run 2 delves, but i think this might be okay
tool tip doesnt tell me how many dungeons or delves i ran
guys do we actually have to go crit this season?
We've gone crit all seasons, except BFA S4 with versatile corruption
If you versa andy'd in the past you were gearing wrong
I guess the only very specific fight that could have favored versa over crit was star augur outside of BFA shenanigans
But that was just one fight... In legion
We're not bears
Ok I guess
Versa isn't bad, nor should you auto vendor items with it. Mastery isn't bad either, all stats are good, we just slightly favor crit after haste
But ilvl is, by far and wide, king
Lovely.
Apparently Brann was nerfed more
"For me in tank spec I don't see much of a difference in his DPS, but I do see they have changed his AI making him quite the #$%^&*! to play with."
Lol that doesn't mean anything
Is that a wowhead comment? It feels like one
So brann did not, in fact, get nerfed
I mean he's awful and dies insta to aoe but idk if that's a recent change
Last boss in fungal 1-bangs him on cd, so does waxface
Just some random saying feely things
no matter where I tank him he jumps in
Yerrr.
Brann does what he wants lol
Thanks for your help bro

Seeing alot of Pwar's crafting 619 wep and shields. Am I missing something in the embellishment section of the FAQs?
they crafting stuff
I mean must be something to it right now. The top warrior on logs for Ansurek is blast 200k more than the next Pwar?
Addicted to blowing sparks
"the top warrior"
In... Heroic raid?
that is me i am top warrior
There is nothing
top warrior in current max content, yes.
You can either do ascendance + double effect or double dawnthread both are basically the same
You're not missing anything
he also has done the boss over 50 times on heroic
and is hardcore padding on adds
so
We don't hide new developments
Logs and gold, the dream
They are posted and pinned
Always
And guides are updated, in the case of those in particular
does kyvesa drop a rift on one of the tanks as well?
Yes
active tank, right
It's one of the tanks mechanics
idky i missed that somewhere
Sense, did you jawors message
he messaged me ye
Kk
wouldnt have thought double dawnthread would have been good due to the 80% health
Also just got this. whats the best way to use this?
for kyveza on h, shld u take all 4 stacks or can u taunt half way thu?
i think you take all 4
thats how i did it and you should have shield wall for each one anyway
not sure taunting half way even works
what addon is it that gets u the purple font like that?
W98 effects
Can you adopt me?
should i hold onto radiant echo do they go away end of week or tied to weekly
i have 4 of them
delves were done,
What's our bis wep enchant? I can't find it on Wowhead guide
I guess I'm stupid, sorry for the dumb question, thank you for answering it. Appreciate you.
They donโt go away. The more you use on each attempt the better the loot. Itโs not good tho. Too much investment for minimal return
i would ask around second opinion, especially if raider, im not much of raid
if you are raider, sim both
i think i recall the issue i saw with them was they didnt quite last long enough
Enchants are listed in the consumables section
I have had mine since a week after launch. Only used 1 have 6 I think.
intervene or bounding stride
yes
Take all 4, itโs gonna hurt a lot. Spell block and reflect one. Shield wall, last stand and spell reflect the next. D stance while taking debuff
If you blow nothing youโll just get nuked
Pretty sure I had shield wall up for each one I took
yeah SW seems to be up each time
drop bounding stride then, nothing really else to drop
done, ty sir
Yeah, should be very close if not. It hurts though haha
if you really want bounding stride you can drop frothing berserker if youre mountain thane
other than DBM/BW, do you guys use any other addon/ WA package, to help time tank abilities to pop defensives? or are yall just looking at the DBM/BW bars?
With proper play sw cooldown is so sweet these days
That 6 sec cdr every ss is badass
I just grab bigwigs plus the basic wa raid package until the liquid one is out
Good call!
Emphasise anything tank related on big wigs and put timers on stuff
we opening our vaults tomorrow as prot?
am i misreading the engineering potion tinker or is it strictly worse than just drinking a health potion?
Quick question for something that knows, what are the round about stats we need? Like, do we want nothing but haste crit=verse atM
Or do I just go Haste Crit
oooo i didnt tihnk to use the countdown function on BW
That tinker isnโt meant to be better as far as I can tell. Sort of just gives you a never ending potion I guess
Maybe a little stronger but not much
But can be a lot stronger I guess if you mitigate the magic damage portion you take from using it
His answer wasn't meant for me
so is there a preferred tinker? I made an engineering wrist and i'm kind of struggling to find one worth using for it
Still curious of any help at all.
Oh oops I replied to wrong dude my b
my other prof is alchemy so i don't really need the reusable health/invis pots
I mean just get as good of ilvl as you can
Just pump haste, then whatever mix of crit and Vers you can get. Don't worry about anything really.
If an item doesn't have mastery on it, just vendor it.
Full mastery/Vers collu 1% crit dream enjoyer
is it bad turning off all the notification on BW for a boss other than tank stuff? like i dont need audio to notify me of stuff i can see?
Your call, if ya ain't leading feel free to live by the mantra: not my job, not my problem
Turn it off
yeah i feel like i get bombarded by noise thats distraction me rather than helping
Is there a sheet out there with the gains of our tier set? 2pc and 4pc
There is this one https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1exJeu5eVe4bTmyg3WFx5PTxIWvDLi0j-WW-XWpGoG88/htmlview#
Not sure if there is another floating around.
there's been a lot of tuning going on too, so not sure how up to date these sheets are
goddamn it seems pretty underwhelming
dev evoker 4pc +12% 
prot war +2% 
why do they just refuse to fix rogue bugs
In practical senses, it was always better
Colossus was only notably better on padding AOE damage,
and the Thane buff is not at all close enough to catch up
this
Unless you're doing M+ keys that pose literally zero threat to your health, pretty much
only if you want to pad stats and parse higher ๐
Sorry guys, clown question. What gem should I be socketing here?
somtin haste i guess
You get really rage starved with colossus which can leave you pretty vunerable at times
Culminating Blasphemite if you don't have one yet, it's our unique mainstat gem, otherwise Deadly Emerald or Quick Ruby depending on if you prefer haste > crit or crit > haste
๐ซก
Not sure if itโs in the pins, but what does one shieldy boy want to craft with his spark of omens?
What embellishments do we want on crafted gear?
Hello are there any breakpoints for haste that we know of?
there are but it's not something to stress about.
ilvl>>haste>crit>=vers>mast or just sim 
Hey - I had an intervene question.
If I get a physical damage taken increase from a raid boss and then intervene my co-tank to give him the magic damage absorb will the autos that are redirected to me be amplified or normal?
Mastery is bis guys
they will absolutely splatter you
@strong forum โค๏ธ
which 'crit' adds to parry? only from gear, including trinkets yea?
Excellent to know, guess I won't be trying that - thank you.
any crit and strength rating, not % increases
finding these in high enough iL should be good yea? I mean the spelunker often has an uptime of 40% + in dungeons
cheers
they seem alright, i'm not sure how strong delve trinkets are compared to dungeon trinkets. might have to be a sim question i'm afraid
dunno if iL is 'capped' lower than raid max on them as we go and that might be why they're not mentioned
could be ye

not entirely sure if this is protection related but right now im at 570 ili as prot, what would be the best way to get me ready for mythic0?
do some t8 delves and open the major chest in the end after that; create your own groups and invite people. you're very able to tank with 570 iL. Just gotta keep them defensives up, sb etc.
any delve in parcitular, never done one
yah need to do your bountiful delves at tier 8
Go into them
At 570 you can do all m0 content
Delves are nice too
oh alright, yeah just kinda nervous first time protection or hell even tanking
I did all m0 in around 565ish and 540 shield was alright
did lfr, but lfr is lfr lol
Press shield slam on cd, press ignore pain at 70 rage, always keep avatar and demo shout on cooldown and use something extra all the time
And shield block on cd too yeah
alright sounds like what ive been doing, watched a couple videos and the method guide on their site
Idk about that. Maybe Iโm being extra but I think M0 should be 580 minimum.
its about personal comfort 570 is fine
I did them with 0 problems and half of them went without a healer
nah mastery isnt bis, that trinket just provides such a huge chunk of it that its great - if you stack mastery and hit that trinket your in the DR territory
Just press you stuff and shield slam bad guys stuff will cool down faster and you can press it again
606ilvl, 30% Mastery, 10% haste ๐ I'm cooked.
Lucky guy
I would pref 30% haste
I'm 599 after all week's content
i got lucky with hero items from delves i guess
Hello guys any one know if same emblishment stack or not?
I mean can i have 2 critical above 80% emblishment at same time ?
have only 598 ilvl but same problem... every delve piece did get mastery on it, feels horrible ๐
Anybody else had recentpy issues with brann doing no dmg ?
high crit maybe?
it was "fixed" and now it sucks
he was unintentionally scaling with delve level
I know they fixed him, but he is literaly doing nothing, i dont see him in my dmg meter even, i see him using his rapid fire or throwing hammers from gryfon, but when im not dmging mobs HP doesnt even move , same with traps , boss had 5stacks and he was geting dmg from my rend only ...
not sure about that, I did a couple today but haven't noticed
600 here but missing HC clear. Managed to get over 20% haste still with swarmlords authority + sacbrood lmao and boosted my shield up to like 610 or so
Uh, he can not show up on details or w/e because he's a pet or something.
Its like he only does his spells visualy
I've had him very rarely do minimal or no damage.
Ive had him there ubtil like 2-3 days ago, showed as pet in my dmg
Tbh I think double haste trinkets is probably better than most during gearing phase for "feel" over anything else and for some reason they sim better together for me rn than sacbrood and skarmorak shard
what are u guys crafting? Just Wrist/Feet/Waist?
I was thinking wep/shield
Shield for sure, maybe weapon

crit block expert

primary and secondary stats from the hit game world of warcraft
why do i have so little strength am i getting owned
Low ilvl probably
Is it possible to only main prot warrior and no other specs for high keys, or should I level up an arsenal and be flexible? Iโm quite time limited ๐
Tankspecs**
If you're rocking anything else, traditionally, it's another tank class, but like ^^^
the top prot warr usually sits 1-2 key levels below the world first keys
Playing some of the other tanks it does feel like warriors can mitigate the most dmg. I have not tried BDK, they look strong too
it's not a feeling it's a fact
i'm 603 
imagine looting any 610 delve items

yer got 3 cloaks
bro specced intellect
clearly not (i have the stupid)
maybe u have a cloak of coordination on
i don't...
sus!
missing like 2800 str from being 1/2 armored to the teeth
bro was armored to one tooth
lmao np
What ilvl shield can we craft this week?
619 with runed crests
Poorman Prot War. Or rather unlucky loot prot war.
We aim for shield before upgrading anything else?
are u likely to get a myth track sheild? if yes, u dont craft a shield
I will get shield in my first vault right after i craft it at max ilvl
anyone killed first boss of raid on mythic yet i know he drops a shield
edit: err not open yet nvm lmao
i haven't seen a single vault pic so idk if reset had happened
what is max ilvl from delve row in vault AFTER this week?
same as this week no?
max delve is 616 gear doesnt ever change
What bracket is the 616? Still hero gear?
ye
Good.
So shield would be 616 craft too Right
619 is max hc craft
does warcraft logs show taunts
Thx โค๏ธ
well u can find when ppl cast it
right I want to see if someone clicke taunt or not
go to their casts
Ok I will find it thank you
and see when they press or didnt press taunt
Jakey taunt off me pls
Jakey Iโm dying
Jakey ;-;
This is nishโs mom. Jakey you killed my son. My baby boy. How could you. My son
do we have a spell reflect sheet/weak aura for delves?
Yeah itโs called get reflect eaten by one of thirty web bolts being cast nonstop
๐
wasmessing about trying to reflect this - dont appear to be able to
XD in an early morning heroic queen pug and the leader is having a major meltdown in discord right now
'IVE SPENT 9 HOURS ON THIS BOSS AND IM STILL IN PHASE 1'
LOL
yer dont know why you would try and pug queen and court week one
^
both actually need ppl to know what to do
pugs are killing her
this dude calling everyone 'f'ing r words' right now LOL
How many hours you reckon youโve spent in pug raid this week apb
@jagged pier did you get Aotc this week?
Why no? U bad? Why u bad
Why
ngl this raid I have seen some of the worst pug tanks in my wow career. like the quality has truly gone down a lot
Yeah I jumped up to the ce team in my guild, but weโre only doing 2 days a week 2.5hours each
Princess was fun
Try to stop burn out
I am enjoying this raid personally I think its a solid raid
Good for u not enjoy a single raid fight myself
you go with brann healer or dps?
dps
We got 6/8, nearly killed silken court but ran out of time, no biggy should get Aotc next week.
Does the buff for raid start next id ?
so noob question. i've seen alot of ppl post stats about 30+mastery? do prot warriors not go for haste/crit/vers/mas?
Buff?
Only buffs are in mythic
yes ofc. but in normal terms we would aim for those stats right?
We aim for strength
haste>crit>=vers>mastery
Stats have very little effect on anything compared to playing correctly
Haste has a big effect (on my enjoyment)
is there a sweetspot to stop on?
No thats still better than a lower ilvl one
Because of block
I wouldn't swap if it was a low gain
what delve shield
Try heal. He got insane buffs. You donโt have to kick or CC anything anymore
I dont have an issue in delves at all
Once heโs decent ilvl he just 2 shots stuff anyway
Got the delve shield at 610 :Dโฆ Bit no wpn or smth
oh is that from delves
Why the fuck would i have him go healer when im not dying
kinda boring killing adds couple years with healer brann i think
Its not a low gain more block is the highest gain u can get
im so pissed I didnt get zekvir ?? before brann nerfs
do we stop aiming for haste after 30%?
I heard dps Brann is now pretty garbadge
yeh bran suck ass
still helps a bit
haste gets better the more you havew
U needed to do it like before the inital delve changes, its all fucked atm
yah I mean like really early
40% unbuffed
i was there doing it too but just didnt get it 
thanks
what about crit?
i got him pre delve nerf by 70+ pulls 
As much as u want
damn nice
thank u sir, new to this prot warrior
wat u all crafting this week
PvP 2h
wait brans campfire gives 5% str????
Never knew, neat, now back to getting 1tapped
was 10 iirc
Wrists boots I think
Is max craft ilvl still lower then myth rank ilvl?
yes by like 3 ilvls iirc
Yea its 3ilvl lower, so not a big deal for most players
my brann is something around lvl 20s
prbobably could have weekly capped his exp if i did 4 more delve
that is season cap i believe
Isnโt there an achiever for level 60 brann
maybe
Or are they timegating it 

Do you guys know of any discord or something similar to find a guild?
there's a recruitment discord that's pretty active
got a link, and thanks :d
NA or EU
ty
NA
Different methods for different regions
Yeah Iโll dm you the link one sec
Or am I able to post it here hmmge
when making the crafted gear, is worth to just use r2 mats and just worry about recrafting it later when r3 gets cheaper?
Nice okay
Depends. Are you trade chat ordering?
See what deals you can get and how much it actually matters
like asking in trade chat? yes
how my blasphemous 2 is going
Yeah Iโd say shop around and talk to crafters
thanks ili be giving a look
No point buying r3 if you canโt get 5* anyway
Delete this freak

How good is colossus for delves?
Worse than thane
you can do 11s as either, play what youd like
in which spec you are going to open your vault guys? Do we go for DPS trinkets or do we hope for shield/1h?
anybody tried soloing zekvir ?? as prot war after the delve and brann nerfs?
im pretty sure i have seen video of prot warr doing zekvir even before nerfs
yeah i was talking about after cause it seems impossible to do now after the changes

i think my vault is pretty much as good as its going to get right now eh
id have to do a norma boss, dunno if i could pug boss 1 normal :S
you can do a few more t8 delves to get 3 options
normal raid is free, especially on tank, join some alt run if you have time
this is probably a socket week, since you're going to be able to infinitely farm heroic track gear and that's the best you'll get from vault this week
but i don't think you need normal raid cause you will be taking the delve option anyway
i might go with ilvl piece, i missed some memo and im 590 stil not 600 like some elite players
thats what i was thinking, but then i thought maybe there is a certain trinkets that we just wouldn't wanna pass on, or tier set maybe
im probably 591, got a neck
ring
593, nvm
i should run COT for larynx veteran track
hero track sacbrood may be worth, or one of the heroic raid items that are contested
like sikran neck
you should not care about veteran track items, just do bountiful delves and upgrade some of your items to avoid overcapping valorstones
shield or weap maybe as well, but all just depends
could sikran neck drop this week?
like i only did 4 bosses in HC, is there a possibility that it will be in my vault?
if you killed any boss beyond sikran, you could get the neck in vault on hero track
or if you killed sikran
damn, that is very good news, will be hoping for that neck. It actually dropped for my pug raid this week but healer won it(
is first boss zero mechanics as dps normal? i might try to sneak in as fury get carried on it, i did it on lfr as fury,
died when i got the tentacle shit on me
normal and lfr have same mechanics
cuz i didnt know how many times it goes off before stopping, or how far to go, or what it would do if i stood in it
