#

it's just better damage per gcd than revenge

#

on single target

#

so it takes the place of it

lusty grotto
#

this guy

#

played DF

#

wrong

#

holy

tribal wharf
#

90+ rage is emergency rage dump, IP SB

proper roost
#

i mean they probably just didn't play DF prot warrior very seriously

tribal wharf
#

not emergency but its you immediately dump at 90 range rages

zealous goblet
lusty grotto
#

oh no

#

i remember him

proper roost
#

don't be mean

zealous goblet
#

also it's a little mean please.

proper roost
#

ok you can be mean

lusty grotto
#

and i 100% remember mentioning execute

zealous goblet
#

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?

tribal wharf
#

oh no, were too late

#

its already begun

zealous goblet
#

because it is quite literally dead last according to the wowhead guide

tribal wharf
#

it may not look like it but the undead have already begun to spread

proper roost
#

well yeah, spenders come last after generators

tribal wharf
#

this entire meme must be purged

proper roost
#

because IP is off gcd

#

so the gcd spenders are kind of lower value by default

lusty grotto
#

scatter

#

this hasnt changed

#

ss > tc > rev/exe

#

where

#

rev/exe means rev ======== exe

#

its literally the same rotation as we do now

mighty valley
#

i guess the last two steps on the rotation guide are a little confusing

zealous goblet
#

mildly yes

swift urchin
#

Warrior Just zug zug ,SS, SB, IP zug zug , repeat and send it

lusty grotto
#

except you apply execute on ST and prio targets

#

instead of revenge

zealous goblet
#

then i will adjust

#

thank you

swift urchin
#

4 targets or less > exe
5 or more RV

mighty valley
#

i doubt it's 4

#

but also in m+ there's often a prio target

lusty grotto
#

its probably 4 now

tribal wharf
#

is the NW trash from 1 > 2 easier now due to that we have spell block???

lusty grotto
#

since execute is buffed

tribal wharf
#

im curious

#

i know u can reflect some of it

zealous goblet
#

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

tribal wharf
#

and kick like tons of it

lusty grotto
#

yogi have you taken a look at Sense's reflect/blockable/spellblockable sheet?

#

youve been in this channel too long to NOT have

mighty valley
tribal wharf
#

no, but u say u guys arent afraid of this part of the dungeon, i was back then

mellow quartz
tribal wharf
#

i wonder if it changed a bit more favorably for us for having spell block

zealous goblet
#

thank you

mighty valley
#

makes sense!

mellow quartz
#

The dangerous parts of NW is the first pull if you go all out and the double pull upstairs. The rest is fine.

lusty grotto
#

i still think they removed the jump from jumpy boys

#

i havent done a single NW that they've jumped

tribal wharf
#

ya, i remember the trash in section i was saying giving my groups grief

neon elk
#

I havent done a single nw ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

mellow quartz
tribal wharf
#

and you cant get the robot buff now, i think, i did heroic on ppal

mellow quartz
#

They still jumped on beta

lusty grotto
#

i see

#

yeah

#

i member naowh

#

LOL

tribal wharf
#

what even did they change for NW

lusty grotto
#

anyway we will find out soon enough

open lake
#

is colossus being better after the buff or nah?

tribal wharf
#

cuz i know all the abilities that can happen in that dungeon,

mellow quartz
#

You have 3 spears, 2 or 3 shields and 3 silence orbs now only. Spears donโ€™t do a lot of damage but give a 20% damage taken debuff on targets and it stacks (use all spears on 3rd boss).

tribal wharf
#

you can run up the pillar again?

#

or warlock gate some crap

lusty grotto
#

invisible wall

tribal wharf
#

im curious what the drawing was indicating

mellow quartz
#

Those 2 packs changed position

lusty grotto
#

location swaps

tribal wharf
#

that giant skelly boi at the end of the bridge was a bit of a pain in the ass

mellow quartz
#

Big guy guards the stars and the trash pack that was there has been moved up and you canโ€™t skip it without invis

lusty grotto
#

bonestormy is now in the stairs

mellow quartz
#

He is easy though

lusty grotto
#

when he used to be in the middle of that area in SL

#

yea

mellow quartz
#

He used to patrol

#

Now just sits there

#

The real annoyance is the big caster pack

tribal wharf
#

if he dont pat, then its whatever

mellow quartz
#

But you probably just orb it

#

Orbs donโ€™t do to much damage so mainly for silence

tribal wharf
#

cuz those packs, really, are just kick them into spell locked and group up and blender

lusty grotto
#

do you mean nar'zudah?

tribal wharf
#

thats the one in scared of, that area

lusty grotto
#

that pack is soothable

#

and shroudable

#

but

mellow quartz
#

Itโ€™s a dispel

lusty grotto
#

seeing as we're gonna need extra %

tribal wharf
#

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

mellow quartz
#

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

fickle coyote
#

guys

#

dawn/dusk embellish, we cant put those on rings/neck right?

tribal wharf
#

if the entire group runs the white line

#

that will never pull

mellow quartz
#

Purple wonโ€™t pull no

tribal wharf
#

only pulls if u have BM hunter pets warlock

#

if u do this

pallid quiver
# zealous goblet ahh this is the crucial piece that i probably missed that would've corrected thi...

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

lusty grotto
#

pets dont pull if they arent in combat

tribal wharf
#

mostly its ranged the pull it

#

that pack is sensitive, and pulls easily

#

is what i am saying

lusty grotto
#

no accesories

#

it can go on cloak though

fickle coyote
#

yeh, having it crafted on cloak now

#

thanks ๐Ÿ˜‰

tribal wharf
#

i need to earn runed's so ya

zealous goblet
#

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?

lusty grotto
#

it can go on shield too, so banned items are weapon + neck + ring

shrewd ore
#

I'd always run fray in raid since ur not always tanking

shrewd ore
#

you can still get 40+ secs uptime without it

lusty grotto
#

you run ITF in raid, regardless of haste

tribal wharf
#

yeah on release it was yellow bad

#

maybe even orange red

I'm looking for a discussion on Colossus vs Moutain Thane for prot is there any guides here?

tropic tangle

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

shrewd ore
#

yea just have to hop around grps and hope ppl are decent

#

i think the next 3 all took me like 20 pulls

tropic tangle

ye princess is pretty ez

#

1 / 4 / 8 delves tier 8

tribal wharf
#

ok, i guess i can run one more 8 delve, i know that water one a little bit now

lusty grotto
#

i think they have to be bountiful tbh

tribal wharf
#

but i dont have the have the delvers bount

#

i just have to have a key, do it, use key

#

i think

robust urchin
#

I believe in you yogi you can do it

shrewd ore
#

they dont have to be bountiful for vault

#

you could just do the same one 8 times

tribal wharf
#

uhh they do, i think

robust urchin
#

No you just need to do them on tier 8

#

You can do 8 fungal folly s

#

Which is usually the fastest one

tribal wharf
#

well, i went to normal delve did 8, then i did 8 water

sick sentinel
#

Can i drop ravager and Go for Veteran instead ?

tribal wharf
#

maybe not, ill go run more anyways a couple not too many

robust urchin

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.

lusty grotto
#

hmm

#

im not sure, you might need to ping sense

#

it says spell blockable

#

and void shredders being blockable

#

im assuming you mean that

hardy snow
#

yea, and thats reasonable, that our mitigation works on tankbuster

#

yes, void shredders

lusty grotto
#

can you link the log

hardy snow
#

can't, guild have it blocked, but I can show screenshot of events (thats physical part, id 440413)

lusty grotto
#

hmm

hardy snow
#

and it was like that on all pulls, so it wasn't some single turn back or something

lusty grotto
#

could it perhaps be something with WCL?

#

you're mitigating quite a lot of it

if you want less buttons to press, dont play prot warrior

zealous goblet
# sick sentinel I Just Stick to my Guardian Druid then

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

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

#

does heroic throw gen as much aggro as taunt?

#

trying to fgiure out how to easily pick up spiders in brood

pallid quiver
#

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

bleak breach
#

Also was getting 25-30mil extra damage on silken council p1 by holding the spider chick and spell reflecting her poison bolts

tribal wharf
#

as long as this delve i did counts for vault i dont care

Handy help for anyone progging her

#

does it gen aggro as soon as the model appears?

bleak breach
#

Easiest way I found to do it

proud dock
#

or do i have to wait for the nameplate to show before aggro gens?

bleak breach
#

Honestly unsure, I just popped it once I saw nameplate

proud dock
#

ok ill try that

tribal wharf
bleak breach
#

Generally you tank the boss near 2 eggs and only need to grab 1 anyway, so Iโ€™d passively aoe the 2 near me and either taunt or leap to the other.

tribal wharf
#

so at least one item from vault can be a hero this week

bleak breach
#

Leap to add, tc, maybe shield slam then charge back to boss.

proud dock
#

ive been SC and taunting them to be safe

#

people apprently get it before i do and insta die

tribal wharf
#

imma gettin 616 candle leech

bleak breach

If you currently have the boss and arenโ€™t near tank buster you can distrusting shout

tribal wharf
#

so, vault caps at t8 delves ya

#

i might be ble to run 2 delves, but i think this might be okay

#

guys do we actually have to go crit this season?

delicate remnant
lusty grotto
#

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

sage pollen
#

Oh my bad I guess

#

I always did haste versa

lusty grotto
#

We're not bears

sage pollen
#

Ok I guess

lusty grotto
#

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

delicate remnant
#

"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."

So brann did not, in fact, get nerfed

#

for kyveza on h, shld u take all 4 stacks or can u taunt half way thu?

toxic pewter
#

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

tropic tangle
#

I think the dot stacks would overlap

#

If you tried to split.

better for a dk or paladin, hoping its not complete garbo tier for them

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

proud dock

oooo i didnt tihnk to use the countdown function on BW

toxic pewter

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

it just doenst make any sense to play colossus xd

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 ...

so noob question. i've seen alot of ppl post stats about 30+mastery? do prot warriors not go for haste/crit/vers/mas?

bleak breach
jagged pier
#

They are just equiping their highest ilvl

#

Which u should do

bleak breach
#

Only buffs are in mythic

sick sentinel
#

yes ofc. but in normal terms we would aim for those stats right?

jagged pier
#

We aim for strength

graceful kite
#

haste>crit>=vers>mastery

long stone
#

Yeah 3% buff

#

Severed strands

graceful kite
#

higher ilvl always better except for that great delve shield

#

with no stats

jagged pier
#

Stats have very little effect on anything compared to playing correctly

lime mantle
#

Haste has a big effect (on my enjoyment)

sick sentinel
#

is there a sweetspot to stop on?

jagged pier
#

Because of block

I wouldn't swap if it was a low gain
