apparently that hook one petty solid

plush tendon
#

hook got nerfed

#

for tanks

#

cause they hate us

toxic pewter

robust urchin
#

Just a beta male, unlike me who is a sigma male

toxic pewter
#

figured even with nerfs its still good

They hate healers aswell with dmg proc/trinkets

the dagger is unironically pretty decent

mellow quartz
#

Are there any tracked runs on raiderio from the blizzard testers yet?

plush tendon
#

what candle is that?

#

is that the on-use candle

#

or the crit candle

tropic tangle
#

hook could still be decent, but it's almost certainly not S tier anymore

toxic pewter
#

how badly was it even nerfed

modest trellis

oh shit lmao

tropic tangle

It got the standard TWW treatment for on use damages

dagger is fun until you hit that -haste proc

dont worry; trinkets this tier are ass

trim condor

Yeah, I have it on healer and haste proc is pain

not even gonna blame Ion, this is 100% Morgan's fault

What comps should we be running with in M+? Melee cleaves?

proper roost
#

why

toxic pewter
#

oh i guess I can open it

#

but I mean not choose an item before raid

proper roost
#

yeah

#

??? weirdo lol

toxic pewter
#

lol

proper roost
#

you're gonna get 3 cloaks anyway

toxic pewter
#

well even then I may want to open as arms or prot depending on how raids go

#

i'm gonna have to pug everything..

toxic pewter
#

pugs are where the true game occurs

#

its dog eat dog out there

#

only strongest have wat it take to survive

polar tinsel
#

Are we opening the vault as prot, or arms? Figured we craft a shield no? any point in opening prot?

toxic pewter
#

just get a shield off first raid boss

#

mythic one even better

polar tinsel
#

i only m+, so open as arms then?

toxic pewter
#

do you need a 1h weapon

proper roost
#

🤷

#

Do ya feel lucky punk

unique wyvern
#

Why arms if we get 2H weapons?

#

Fury no?

proper roost
#

tank trinkets suck

toxic pewter
#

if you need a 1h weapon and crafting a shield perhaps just open fury

polar tinsel
#

gotcha, thanks

violet ginkgo
#

Also 2h weapon help because if you upgraded 2h weapon the 1h and shield won't cost any crest for the upgrade, only need the valorstone.

balmy remnant
edgy bone
#

We're opening as DPS?

toxic pewter
#

I mean if you dont want tank trinkets and dont want a shield from vault yeah may as well open as dps

edgy bone
toxic pewter
#

Yeah its true but not sure you want to choose a 2hander just to upgrade crappier ilvl 1h + shield this early in the season

proper roost
#

yeah that's an extremely cooked way to take weapons lmao

edgy bone
#

Can't we get hero track gear from M+now though

toxic pewter
unique wyvern
#

Is there any haste cap we should stop at or should I aim to stick as much as possible?

violet ginkgo
#

There is no haste cap for prot war especially so early in the expansion.

toxic pewter
#

yah you want as much haste as u can get

#

granted still choose better ilvl items

edgy bone
#

So we're saving sparks and not opening vault?

unique wyvern
#

Got it

edgy bone
#

🥴

violet ginkgo
#

wdym not opening vault? you always open vault. what you pick is up to you no need to rush.

tough finch
toxic pewter
#

I am running raids first then depending on drops will deceide which spec I open vault in

#

it is prob the best method

#

if you are unsure

tribal wharf
#

the only scenario i can see for not opening vault is, yo uu do a raid boss that dropps same ilvl track :S

toxic pewter
#

hell can even run many m+ runs as well to see what drops u get

edgy bone
#

I have a hero track shield already but don't we get higher gear from M+?

tribal wharf
#

and then, you have the shield, so now its safe to open the vault as arms

toxic pewter
violet ginkgo
balmy remnant
#

Don’t open your vault for the first two months

#

You need to save it

edgy bone
balmy remnant
#

No you should vendor it

edgy bone
#

Or do I just craft a shield

tribal wharf
#

i wonder if any grey lvl 27 leather boots will appear in anyones vault

proper roost
#

imagine stressing out about a 616 vault

#

icant

toxic pewter
#

lol

edgy bone
#

O

balmy remnant
#

Like what are we doing here man LMAO

edgy bone
#

IDK I'm new

#

I literally just started playing

proper roost
#

literal 9+ keys are gonna drop 610 or 616 1/6 hero gear LITERALLY who cares

balmy remnant
toxic pewter
edgy bone
#

Which boss drops our shield

tribal wharf
#

you know that meme about " i just press buttons" on both sides of the bellcurve and then the angry dude

balmy remnant
#

636 shield do get me kinda bricked tho

toxic pewter
violet ginkgo
mighty valley
# edgy bone I literally just started playing

if you're brand new just take the best upgrade for right now, nothing you pick from this vault will last the season and gear is gonna matter way less than you learning the dungeons and getting practice

tribal wharf
#

take that meme and now its " i just open vaults" and then the angry guy

violet ginkgo
#

so if you don't get the first, you gotta wait till last.

edgy bone
#

FIRST BOSS drops our shield?? Easy pz

toxic pewter
#

yeah just do mythic first boss in a pug

#

will prob be easy enough

tribal wharf
#

let us know how that goes for u

balmy remnant
toxic pewter
edgy bone
#

Does it share with intellect

toxic pewter
#

yes

#

holy pala and resto/ele shamans want it

violet ginkgo
#

but the last got better secondary stat, but as we always say shield ilvl takes priority so first boss is good enough.

edgy bone
#

NUH

tribal wharf
#

mythic anything raid boss = pug destroyer

#

even first boss

toxic pewter
#

nah need pro group will go fine.. probably...

vocal flame
#

i like your positive thinking

tribal wharf
#

its not that you arent powerful enough, its that the mythic raid boss really hurts

#

and hes really smart too

inland raft
#

I dont know anything at all about this raid but more often then not first bosses are pretty well farmed by pugs

solid cargo
#

There's a reason RWF guilds do so many splits before even starting lol

tribal wharf

u gunna need 95% block minimum son

I am full mastery build i will crit block that bitch all day long

proper roost
#

Idiot

toxic pewter
#

I am forming my own group and not inviting any classes that can use a shield, even for offspecs

#

MUAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

edgy bone
#

Can someone explain 636 shield

violet ginkgo
#

genius so even if you stay in dps spec roll you can always roll because offspec roll takes priority over greed and transmog

proper roost
#

vers mastery shield that is actually so cringe

toxic pewter
edgy bone
#

What lvl m+

toxic pewter
#

well for 636 they need gilded crests

#

gotten from +9 i think

indigo scaffold

icrafted a shield and wrist on mine

violet ginkgo
#

gilded crest which obtained from +9

toxic pewter
#

so hard to get right now

edgy bone
#

From what the beta testers were saying, keys are not easy peasy.

And never spend sparks

honestly it feels much more like what they intended when they squished key levels

but S4 was a joke season, so it wasn't really accomplished

solid cargo

They want it to be hard to get mythic vault. Not something any mouth breather can pull off

How rare are tier pieces at vault?

inland raft
#

if dont clear a 20 by end of day uninstall clowning

indigo scaffold
proper roost
#

fairly common early in a season

toxic pewter
edgy bone
#

But we do want to open as DPS regardless right, for the trinkets?

dusky canopy
#

Approximately 3 rarity

solid cargo
#

My anecdotal experience from last expac was you get a tier piece every first vault lol

indigo scaffold
#

hopefully i get one in mine so i can make the 2 set right away

violet ginkgo
toxic pewter
#

I mean some people want a 1h/shield from vault perhaps

tropic tangle
#

if you're prot main you want a weapon and shield for prot

hoary pivot
tropic tangle
#

unless you decide you feel like crafting a shield

tribal wharf
#

you only open as dps if you have heroic raid shield, essentially

inland raft
#

ideal gearing strategy is a socket tbh since can farm heroic gear in theory

tribal wharf
#

or will craft shield

edgy bone
toxic pewter
#

just open vault for pure transmog purposes

#

so look and find what item u think looks coolest

indigo scaffold
#

not wrong

tribal wharf
#

i dont think i have any hero pieces yet

dusky canopy
#

Don’t bother looting for shield this week because it’s only delve ilvl,
you can craft one higher or farm M+ and odds are better that you’ll get a dps trinket

waxen cradle
#

yeah seeing as I already have the shield from the first heroic boss planning to likely open as arms

tribal wharf
#

i can craft a shield at some point, but i figure i will open prot mean time

#

what if i get 3 2h? thats no good

#

socket bleh

pallid quiver
#

I'd probably open as Fury to see if I can get a 1H to carry me until Myth track 1H

indigo scaffold
#

fury gets 2h on vault no?

pallid quiver
#

Because I'm crafting embels first

toxic pewter
pallid quiver
#

Because I can just farm a 1H

indigo scaffold
toxic pewter
#

if you only want 2h to appear you must open as arms. if you want only 1h to appear you must open as prot.

tropic tangle
#

yeh, starting this week you can infinitely farm for heroic track gear, long term this vault won't be impactful

indigo scaffold
#

is the 2 set bonus big for prot or nah

tropic tangle
#

in that sense, a socket is probably your best long term choice

tribal wharf
#

i farmed lfr 1 time as fury, died, rolled on uh i cant recall, but weapon with avoidance was 1, and some other item i have, won them both

#

so, i dont need to farm any more

toxic pewter
#

our tier is pretty meh its not a big thing

#

but most are like that anyway

#

still want it 100% though

sinful light
#

If im prot and wanting to do M+ what should my first craft be?

nocturne spindle
#

whatever armor you dont get mythic track in a few weeks

toxic pewter
#

can craft some bracers perhaps

nocturne spindle
#

(bracers and belt if you must rush for two embellishments)

edgy bone
toxic pewter
#

lol

edgy bone
#

Saying this vault won't be impactful is a reach

toxic pewter
#

I remember when I got bacon first week..

remote tusk
#

belt boots

tropic tangle
#

I mean, hero track trinkets from raid are gonna suck ass because they're 13 ilvls below M+ vault trinks

indigo scaffold
#

between bis armor/wep or bis trinket which would you guys chose

solid cargo
#

That's not really how trinkets work lol

tropic tangle
#

If there was something that stood out, I'd agree

edgy bone
tropic tangle
#

but even at myth track nothing stand heads above the M+ trinks

edgy bone
tropic tangle
#

I mean have fun with it, but which trinket you planning on taking heroic over the decent M+ trinks on myth track

edgy bone
#

If you keep attacking me I swear I'll change my name in this discord

that was the other thing i won

I feel its gonna be tough to pull trinkets from vault especially since we dont have the whole picture when it comes to the tank effectivenees nerf for dps trinkets

ornate basalt
#

why does all the plate gear have so much mastery on it?

violet flume
#

id be super hyped if they make tank trinkets amazing, like a good offense/defense like dreadplates or fyrakk heart

#

but i have 0 faith in blizz to make good tank trinkets

#

like just make tank trinkets OP, big damage impactful survival

#

only, useable by tanks, gg

#

like why did they have to make the stein give less stats to the tank using it than others getting buffed

waxen cradle
#

yeah would be nice but I feel Blizz's idea of a tank trinket is something that fills a gap in something a specific tank may not excell at and then they rip it away later on and leaving a gaping survivability issue as they would tune around it

violet flume
#

ideal blizz tank trinket: stamina trinken with random effect that reduces melee damage by 20k per hit for 10sec

#

us: despair

Theyve bad good tank trinkets in oast like aegis in shadowlands

Guys, noob question. How to get shield fast for level 72 warrior that went into TWW without one? Theres no WQs with them, on AH when I set filter to level 70 I see level 70 shields but after buying them they are all level 80. I don't see also any to craft below level 80 ;/

strong forum
#

Filter for ilvl to be below 500

#

Then you should be able to see shields that you can wear

violet ginkgo
mellow quartz
waxen frigate
#

The new TWW thing is just no fucking stats at all

#

And then a mediocre effect

violet ginkgo
#

Ah speaking of which Nish... is that kind of trinket new in the WoW setting? No passive main stat no passive secondary stat just effect

#

or does it ever happen before in previous expansion?

waxen frigate
#

I’ve never seen it before but I’m a shadowlands baby

#

So idk

is there like a checklist floating around of wat to do first?

but the checklist must be spesific I mean that is just too broad of situation.

we dunno.

lofty warren

Why the heck are they running m+.

#

They really that concieted that they want to run + and see themselves as world #1

#

For crafted pieces is the logic something along the lines of:

  • 2 lower stat pieces (bracers, etc) with embellish
  • jewellery
  • other slots where good secondaries aren’t easily available (I will not be raiding so vault pool will be dungeon gear only)

Newer to playing with crafting, so want to make sure I’m not wasting sparks

That’s actually great

They made the warrior play at 248ilvl so the mobs wouldn’t die too quickly

bracers, cloak, jewelry are good slots for embelish since they are the pieces with the least amount of stats

The guide 100% said to go and get shield first

lusty grotto
#

we were talking about embelishments

crafting does not automatically mean

#

embelishments

lofty warren
#

Yea so ur first craft = shield and that'd where you put embellish (on crafted)

violet ginkgo
#

n...not really

nocturne spindle

plus if you really wanna min max early you dont wanna get a shield after you waste limited higher level crests crafting it

does anyone have any advice to increase ignore pain uptime (other then pressing the button), ex: any macros etc?

Bro you should just press IP whenever you don't have an active IP it isn't that hard. Once you get used to that you can start optimizing.

lofty warren

Real question: if you craft a shield - what is wrong with putting an embellish on it?

fossil glade
#

i know it isnt hard was just wondering if there was any macros worth using

#

all G tho i appreciate it

warm lodge
#

so to avoid asking a million obvious questions in here is there a good guide to read or watch for prot war tanking? i have always played fury and moved to prot for this xpac and want to make sure im understanding and doing things optimally

lofty warren

There is a good macro that will press shield slam if it is available before ignore pain

vast rivet
#

Check the pins

warm lodge
#

thanks dont know how i didnt see that

urban bane
#

The other ones there are good but not really going to help with the problem you mention.

#

The reason I ask why you're concerned about IP uptime is because the truth is that IP uptime is just an aftereffect of generating and spending rage effectively. It isn't really something to think very hard about.

lofty warren
#

Is it a dps loss to press thundering shout (or whatever it's called that makes enemy do less damage)?

mighty valley
#

what

pallid quiver
#

Booming Voice makes you deal extra damage, so you press it on CD, assuming not a troll

fossil glade
#

thank you muse, i appreciate that. ill pay more attention to how im utilizing rage

#

first time tanking in awhile

violet ginkgo
#

he mean demo shout but he can't type demoralizing shout

#

so he change it into thundering shout.

pallid quiver

#

okay wait you ONLYY ip if shield slam procs?

mighty valley
#

yeah, do not worry about IP uptime, worry about rage gen and not overcapping

lofty warren
#

Ahh yea it's demo shout

pallid quiver
#

What's more important is rage gen, spending, and minimizing waste

violet ginkgo

It's the backbone of the class. If you're always generating and not wasting rage, you're in a very good spot

should i be trying to revenge to spend rage over IP or IP over revenge? for the sake of GCD i mean

mighty valley
#

IP isn't on the GCD

so it's not either/or

#

i know thats why im asking

urban bane

Yuh

You will overcap if you only press revenge

Oh nice 20% increased damage AND some dr. Like pwar more and more

if you're playing well, you're hitting an offensive ability every GCD, and venting extra rage off-GCD with IP

#

if SS and TC are both on cooldown and you don't have rage to revenge, you've fucked up

stats on shield is less important than overall item level on the rest of your gear

you can get a new hero track shield with better stats eventually

in DF i just crafted a shield as a place holder until getting a myth track one that was better, havent crafted anything yet this xpac

or you can craft one, yeah

at the moment i dont think i have the crests to have one crafted at a high enough Ilv to be worth it

frigid eagle
#

if u offspec fury, u might loot as arms.. isnt it?

sweet summit
#

but then you won't have 1 handers on the loot table

#

which is kinda sad since weapon is big value if you want to do damage

frigid eagle
#

if you plan to spam high m+, pick socket, otherwise pick weapon, i think

no secondaries

Defensive procs are always a DPS loss for no gain

#

Like if tanks were designed around taking defensives to survive it would be cool, but our base design is do damage and survive through your own kit, so you're just a worse tank for taking defensive benefits outside of massive on-use shields, and even those are niche use

#

procs that require you to already take damage that you can't control when they trigger?

It's just silly
