ppeople already cleared 10's XD
i will not fear. fear is the keybricker
i will not fear. i will not fear. i am scared
Cries in europe 😂
I have to wait another 10 hours for reset
What do ya suggest guys or just sim ?
Rituel knife is what i see people take
f that ritual knife
Sword is BiS and thinking with Catalyst open and M+ taking champion tier is a mistake
I took that weapon myself, I had similar vault sword or knife trinket
a hero track sword is very not bis
i do not want to lose stats personally and already have 2 hero trinkets so i took the weapon
obviously M Raid Sword is better but M Raid and M+ just opened today
so hard and obviously impossible to have M gear in a vault when it just opened
the trinket numbers wise apparently is strong I just dont enjoy the idea of losing stats personally especially haste i dont want to be feeling slower than i already am
me either
but mathematically it may be correct choice
it's not about being compared to mythic gear
you do not get it
but i ain't gonna be the one to coach correct vault choices/logic for the 50th time today
i only had enough energy for 49

do it one last time, be nice -.-
Thoughts on Silken Chain Weaver trinket? got one in vault 616
I actually use that
its a solid defensive trinket
1 min cd
actually can feel when i press it on a raid boss for example
30% dr
and it slows their attack speed
but alas theres no dam component
may be the best defensive trinket this season if i say so myself
even in m+ it webs all mobs in front of u
its all good I can sim anyway I forget asking some people for advice or a opinion is a mistake
any tanks on NA wanna do a +4 siege of boralus 
I would but in raid
what do you guys make of this trinket, not even listed on wowhead, M+ tank here
are ur friends down to key as well tonight or are we 2 man pug lifing @lusty grotto
it's not even showing up in there 😕
very weird
bloodmallet doesn't have some of the really bad trinkets or a bunch of delve only ones i believe
understood ty
YASVQ (Yet Another Stupid Vault Question) Generic Heroic Raider/+10 KSM. 2 616 items in the vault, Wrists that are a 36 ilvl upgrade, or Shoulders that are a 13 ilvl upgrade but COULD be catalysted into tier. Difficulty: I'm 0/5 tier now so even that won't help now but could later. Extra context: Both sparks are ready to be used today on crafting.
fwiw if you just run ur character through raidbots it will have this
so just sim yourself directly, bloodmallet can be inaccurate by a decent amt sometimes anyway since its using a completely diff gear setup to what you're actually wearing
tyvm, just did raidbots, yeah that trinket is beans lol
Guys.. I've understood that during avatar TC should be like every other global. Does that mean I go like TC, Ravager, TC, Spear, TC, etc?
Huh, I didn't know raidbots could do half the shit it does
having to go from m0 to +7 for upgrades feels weird
what
lol what key level is this
zero
they didnt kill the adds to first boss and so we wiped
ngl
and then, ya, your an idiot im lbock u
its easy to be angry as rogue
well, they werent killing adds, and dying to god only knows what, assume webs first bos
and so i said, you guys have to look at the screen
I put all rogues on timeout as of last night

hell, the paladin had a green chest plate and i gave him the 593 that dropped
i mean, is it wrong to say you have to look at the damn screen?
So we're taking socket?
Vault selection order for 9/17 vault:
- BIS hero track trinket that lots of other people will want.
- If you have not received a tier
piece from raid, take the tier piece. - Any other highly competitive item that will be your bis for awhile or a socket
You do not need to take a second tier piece from your vault. You will have 2 catalysts, 1 drop, and 1 AOTC token on reset next Tuesday. You will be able to farm keys for 613 pieces of loot to catalyze before next Tuesday.
Advice specifically for mythic CE raiders
Ymmv
Also sockets are heavily devalued since you only need 3 total
Is there a list of BiS hero track trinket that lots of ppl will want?
Sockets are still worth about 5.5ilvls
And generally low budgeted compared to previous expansions
maybe its bcause i ran the dungeon 68% d stance?
I do not have one of those
i dont recall leaving it on for that long
So how does #1 on that list even make sense
?
I don't know how to reply to that question
You know which items are a hot commodity
Like queen ring
It's the new eranog ring
Everyone wants it
Yeah I don't have a list of every popular trinket but that doesn't mean that there aren't popular trinkets
That ring only gets replaced by the same ring on higher ilvl
Man not many people got AOTC week 1
Noobs like me that isn't even on the loot vault
What have you guys been crafting with your second spark?
My advice was specifically for mythic cutting edge raiders as I said, if you're not one of those then obviously my advice will change
I'll go cloak and save bracers for engi bracers
any warrior tryna come tank spam some keys with my group?

Dusk/dawn threads/ shield and weapon
Unless you can reliably kill first boss mythic
Cuz first boss drops myth track shield
so weapon crt haste im assuming
Opinions on this vault? Not sure how good this trinket is and I currently have veteran wep/shield
50 ilvl ring upgrade or a piece set. im gonna guess a set piece
Altough jesus the difference in stats in the ring lol
any emblishments?
Thanks for the help
Anyone have some pro tips for tanking Ansurek as prot? 🙂
just stay alive dodge stuff swap after liquify
also keep her moving out of crap on the floor it helps the raid to give them space
trying to pug keys without anyone having IO is the worst thing in the world
had a hunter that was 610 8/8 heroic do 20% less dps than me as the tank........
is mythic+ out?
for NA yes
yes
not that io helps with that
Is it true this is BIS for the season once upgraded?
Dropped last night and geed up!
nah that shield is generally considered bad
its missing a lot of secondary stats and stamina
Sadge
What automarker do you g uys typically use for M+
i generally don't use one, personally, but i'm weird
616 tier chest for 2 piece or 616 shield. Both equal item level upgrades from exsiting gear.
Do you have access to a better shield?
This week*
I can still craft, but I don't have the crests to do the big version yet
What’s your profile pic?
It's Mr. Incredible yelling at you to use your cooldowns on cooldown
Thanks
L Mastery
Nah mastery isn't bad, just everything else is better
This post was evaluated and buck-checked by real crit enjoyers
he'd rather go without a piece of gear in the slot than have a single point of mastery
I have 28% mastery
Meanwhile, I'm just looking at my vault
Need me a haste/crit stack
and it's telling me to go kill myself, and I just might.
this is a funny trinket
Cooldowns on cooldown 
Had 35% crit in SL and parried 1/3 of every melee attack
Tell me that shit is not goated
Literally kungen 2.0
Link the remix stat pics
But I cannot be fucked to raid
Yeah it's very not different
Nome, tell me not to drink the poison
raidbots tells me to, but
Drink it coward
I just know it'll kill me, guaranteed
Just have a quick healer
I ain't no bitch
Lap it up like a hound
To dispel it
Or just track it well 🙂
Is it true that all tank trinkets suck and we need DPS trinkets
And git gud
Sphoning Lightbrand or Unkindled Waxweave Mozzetta (crit, haste cloak)?
Always has been
But I want free damage forever without the git gud, that's hard D:
Be dark iron dwarf and racial it off for extra stats
I have a good name
We can't all be Sense smh
At that point, sockets tbh
Did doesn't remove magic smh
What
Yes it does
They're the exact same debuff cleanser
1 grans mainstat 1 grants 10% phys DR
Sorry I didn't finish my thought "while stunned". Though now I'm second guessing myself.
I truly chose the worst side smh
Horde bad, yes
All I can do is make beef jokes
Sounds like cope
I've never found the Alliance themes particularly engaging, tbh, but part of that may stem from me playing a bit of Alliance when very first starting, and literally everyone I met was a raging tart
DID has horrible fucking customizations
They all look the same because of it
Need more customs
though horde stuff could do with less spikes everywhere
hell yeah
That's why I went back to normal dwarf in SL
brother
You can just rock more tmogs as normal dwarf
WC3 and OG vanilla—Cata Horde aesthetic is pretty untouchable
They lost the plot in BFA
Thrall will always be warchief
Amen
Council leadership and watered down themes of Horde post-Legion killed the fantasy
Thoughts on taking champion track sacbrood?
Vol'jin would've have been a really cool warchief if he got to do anything
We dwarf in here
Buddy remind me to fucking send my top 3 dwarf mogs
Hell nah
Dorf is life 
I got one for Wildhammer, Stormpike, and Warhammer Slayer aesthetic
All with no pieces from same set but perfectly blended and matched
I got some psychotic mog game on my dwarf bro
@strong forum What are some WeakAuras you use that not many average M+ players utilize?
Boys all my gear is fine ezcept shitty blue bracers. Whats the best way to get q decent piece in that slot without spending a ton of gold?
I don't use m+ weakauras beyond the generic ones
M+, delves, normal raid
hey guys question about my vault is this work taking over tier early
M+ prolly gon be your most reliable way
Any specific ones?
The dungeon WA pack probably counts, since I know a non-zero amount of people who don't even know those exist
That trinket looks awful
its a back peice
O
Seems like a good vault
On my phone
Didn’t fully see
Uhhhhhh idk actually
Seems pretty solid for a back piece then
you got AOTC week 1?
ya
I can finally show the world i am anub
Prolly the cloak your best bet
No shot are you getting that cloak from your loot council
Yeah good point
pandas invincible against fall dam
It's the only thing that's legitimately killed me this xpac.
I had a talk with Nome about this recently
It's the downside of playing while distracted smh
can't leap if you're too slow/miss/get no path availabled because you chose the bad time
That wings of shattered sorrow is BiS right?
Ye
For pretty much everyone
Same goes for the cantrip mega haste neck
And the cantrip ring from last boss
Maybe this week I'll get to at least see last boss of raid
if we just get enough gear, people can just live the charges on court
u guys think seal is any good for prot or what
If you mean the rare ring off Ansurek, it's bis
The new eggnog ring
Bis for pretty much every single spec that has fingers to put it on
At any rate, I have a solution for the poison.
it'll just blare an air horn repeatedly at me near the end of the duration
ok thanks bud
should i open vault as prot or fury
Hey folks, how big is the tier set for us as prot warriors? Been having a hard time choosing the vault over here 😦
If you can manage to hold up 100% uptime on buffs its good
fury
Why fury
Absolutely irrelevant
Literally doesn't matter to equip
Or have
blizz fucked us?
Ye WW is 4% for 0->4pc
Damn wtf ur a monk player now
Just super minimal
Because I don’t wanna raid tank
How does it go?
It could get buffed 
ww really good in s1 -> STARTS TO BECOME DOG ASS IN S2/S3 ABSOLUTE MEME LEVEL
Kinda basically the perfect spot to be as a DPS, not too good not too bad
Not a joke this has happened every expansion since monk existed
is fury warr still strong even after nerfs
And I mean even before seasons existed
Yeah except monk scaling is completely flipped on its head now
i'm just sayin
WW actually scales with haste now
Cuz WW kinda doesn't like stats
Instead of haste being a negative stat
It does now lol
Fists of Fury scales with haste now because of a talent
Monk is literally my most ignored class in the game so yeh
I heard ww monk is best PI target
Nah
i just want my friend to be happy
It’s like middle of the pack PI

@strong forum for PI numbers
I’m just so happy that we never cancel fists for goofy shit anymore

Brew also feels good ngl
Also I used to main monk before legion @proper roost I just hated a lot of the legion design coming from WoD
That’s how I became a warrior for 3 expansions
same

oh well, easily justifies taking socket
started a m+ and it instantly ruined my action bars
rip key
its like the right one got copied to my main one
if you can't fix your bars in under two minutes you are weak
you will not survive the coming winter
You guys dont use automarkers?
They never learn...
S1 WW is a false reality made by nzoth
pwar best tank confirmed
For my vault ilvl or set piece?
anybody mess around with the transmitter?
idk why it sims so poorly, it should be busted
same but I was forced to for normal and parsed like shit because I'm half asleep

ngl tanking kinda feels like shit rn
and they made a bunch of dps specs really fun with the hero talents
Ravenous Honey Buzzer is a slept on trinket
Honestly
easy pick
yuge
Any thoughts o gem
Culminating Blasphemite? Anything better?
Quick question, wowhead says old-blood is better but the ability on reactive webbed seems nice for prot warrior. Thoughts on which is better?
Main thing is you're losing secondaries and stamina for bonus armor which granted is nice, and a proc
pwar has a decent amount of stamina based healing through indomitable etc
Not that stamina is AMAZING, but I wouldn't really want to lose 6.6k of it for a proc
it's trash
Any thoughts my friends?
https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/character/us/garrosh/ilyamurometz
@lone eagle thanks!
i'm thinking boots or helm but I may hold off and do keys and raid before taking something
Hero tier wildfire wick trinket or hero tier sacrificial knife trinket from vault??

Not trying to go full sweat and sim it just curious if the damage from the wildfire wick is even worth it. I’m leaning towards the strength from the knife.
get owned nerd.
followed my friends to this server back in the day.. I wanted to roll on pvp server.. clowned myself bad
i hope i have similar luck when i wake up, gratz man
are we holding any crests anymore or are we sending it as soon as u get a ilvl upgrade, assuming its champ+
the legend lives on
apb and yogi are eternal
if the shoe fits..
This seems worth it for affix
no u
also dont
wanna play helldivers 2 with me tho 
what are people doing for runed harbinger crests?
sitting in login queue
Would a champ track bulwark of azzinoth be good or nah
I didn’t see it proc a whole lot
cool got DC in a key and now sitting in the login que
mid raid got dc'd
that sucks, u get back in?
sitting in character select 😦
sorry man that sucks
guess this is my sign to play some deadlock
looks like something with their authentication servers again
Same issue here
"Hey, let's lay off the QA team and save some money!"
I am sure the QA team are the people responsible for server stability
what a fuckin joke
Strange was everything was running smoothly
The servers went poop 15min ago
thankfully this game is free to play and currently in beta
Who just killed Area52?
Yo what a wild change
Always been pretty bad, sadly
I dont think there are specific servers anymore, it's all virtualized.
Is there a viable build without spear?
guess they didnt want people to spam heroics for valorstones, i just wish it wasnt so ass to get them in the first place
But what about the casuals and the alts
I thought the change was more to stop people leaving at first boss
With how blizzard is pushing people into delves and casual content this change is wierd
I think backloading all loot until the end is the way to go
It's just valorstones
Gotta do m+ either way, so meh?
Nobody was leaving after the first boss in Ara Ara because of valorstones 
The question is, did they put all the stones to the end, or remove stones,
Only the end boss is dropping stones
I would presume they just removed it
So I assume it's only his stones
dumb question, from looking at the DJ, it looks like we can loot the trinkets we want even as a prot loot spec? am i good to open vault as prot now?
Didn't see this in the FAQ or Guide, is it worth it to take Sureki's at heroic level over 4pc from box?
i would assume its not worth the secondary stat loss
Do you have a better ilvl shield?
Yeah then don't think about
yea was just curious
It's nice to have and
didnt notice the secondary stats
It's probably not that good In the long run but whatever it's a champion track item
just got the stick, I remember people saying the knife is bad cause it lowers stats? stick sims way less tho
So guys is vault OK? Nothing buggy or broken?
seemed normal to me
im so torn on my vault
Highest ilvl usually wins
gloves for the 2 set bonus, or grab a helmet with a 30 ilvl upgrade, or a ring with a 20 ilvl upgrade, the 2set bonus is only a 15 ilvl upgrade
is the highest ilvl i can get
nah, i had a really busy week at work and couldnt play as much as i wanted to
chef life i guess
Just quit bro I heard all cooks are being replaced by robots soon anyway
im not a cook, lol i did my time on the lines, now i get to create menus and recipes and do paperwork all day lmao
Sounds like something AI can do too man just saying
everyones job is something AI can do eventually too
"Siri create a 3 star michelin menu"
i can do that now, but theres a difference in creating a menu, and executing that menu to perfection
"Siri execute the 3 star michelin menu to perfection"
thats not how that works
Are you an AI expert?
no, but neither are you so i dont see your point
My point is you don't know if that's not how it works
i dont have to be an AI expert to know that i would bet my career that i can outcook any robot or AI on this planet with current technology
current AI is just basically iteration of current data, at least for now, AI cant actually "think". So it will suck for basically any creative job
Alright bet imma go work on my ai chef robot right now
and no, generating an image based on training data doesnt counts, it cant create that image for itself, just a copy of what it already has
please do, id love to replace some line cooks
works for me
Actually I'm just gonna use it to run you out of your job and then destroy the blueprints so it can't be reproduced
Is there any viable build without spear ?
I've been saying they need to do this for fucking M+ and have actual seasonal shit to work towards besides just a stupid mount that's dogwater every season, and they implement it for the feature that most people aren't going to interact with past todays reset
M+ NEEDS THIS KIND OF LOVE DAMNIT
but yes I've been out of the country for over a week and traveling a week before that so me no touch wow for 14 days
??? you're just now finding out about this? lmao
dw, the way it's implemented for delves is awful too
this is overall damage in a +4 NW and im only 605 ilvl
correct just finding out about this
no one knows if it's time gated or what, the ultimate reward req is doable randomly early on
yoooo
thats decent aint it?
Chinese chick was trying hard to get me to take her out yesterday but I had to go bar hopping with the bois
unfortunately I haven't played enough to have any input here 😦
I'm about to engage with my bed
i'm about to engage with 6 hours nonstop of keys
that's just warmup got 30 more hours this week
no kap pwar fun but fingers hurt smashing all these buttons
hey uhh
this is gonna sound mildly silly, but just outta curiosity
wouldn't thunderous roar be good for m+ for initial threat with the reduced cooldown?
obviously spear does more damage and stuff
*to have another button to press every pull
Which wrist enchant? Avoidance or Leech?
Probably isn't gonna matter, whatever speaks to your heart more.
But Leech is more active than avoidance.
That is to say, it is actively useful in all content almost all the time. Avoidance is only AOE dam.
I think the minimal DR you get from Avoidance is probably going to be more impactful on a non-tank since you don't have like 4 or 5 passive auras causing diminishing returns on the smaller sum of mitigation you get.
Are we still using Meathook even with the nerf of it being reduced damage for tank spec?
Also, is there a reason we don't like Foul Behemoth's?
use it if it still sims well
meathook was and still is a sim bait kekw
how do you suppose you would take thunderous roar
clearly who tells you the opposite is in m7-10 bracket and never been higher
good advice, dont give it again
So.... Are we not using Meat Hook then?
simbait. that s what it was, thats what it is, and what it will be.
Okay. If it's simbait, do we have a definitive list of what ACTUALLY are the best trinkets.
ara kara is strong even after nerf, 2nd one play arround and find out
Yup on bloodmallet
Hey does anyone know how often the hidden artifact appearance for prot spawns?
ok i cant complain about my great vault, 4 pieces of tier to choose?
i'm saying is it viable to take roar over spear
i know spear is more damage, but i'm questioning if the availability for roar every pack instead of spear each 2nd pack
Give it a crack and see how you like it
my shield slam sometimes hits for 1 million
is that like the execute thing
are u responding to me?
Pretty sure there is a Marco you can run that will tell you if it's up
Yeah I have it, I just don't know how often it spawns.
Should we get tier set or highest ilvl from great vault? idk which is more important for prot.
It's completely random
its heroic 2nd week which means its officially parse whoring week
real question is how I rank 7'd Nexus Princess for boss dam but rank 8'd for overall on her
Secret add? Target dummy?
any idea if that BT weapon is worth the secondaries loss?
dang..
no lol
Hey! Could I see some of you guys keybinds? mines a big mess and i want to start rading semi seriously
Do you have an MM0 mouse? Colors my recommendations
I was thinking about getting one cause i right i just got a regular one
I would recommend it
One nice thing about it and one recommendation as well is to split high volume buttons between keyboard and mouse
Basically by having SS/Tclap/Revenge on keyboard
and ignore pain on mouse
my keybindings are like this but IDK if they'd work for other people lol
I'm splitting my APM fingers wise
I tried once having most of it on my mouse and felt like my mous was jiggling
I just click hahaha
][ are for my 2 extra mouse buttons
i thought clicking was bad cause i also do it
seems better than mine
Nothing wrong with clicking, I’ve had 100overall parses before and I only click
I do agree, keybinds are more efficient. Whatever you’re most comfortable with will always work best though.
so theres no like a blueprint i could follow, most ppl just do what works for them?
as long as it works i guess
Yep, literally just what works for you.
Are we opening vault as fury?
Are we craftin with sparks yet?
If you have a good shield you could go for it. Trink off of last raid boss is great atm
But most stuff we need drops in tank spec anyway. Think that might be the only main one I can think of that doesn’t.
Got to say was happy with my great vault
yall think i can solo a t9 delve as a 599 prot warrior?
since they made soloing delves easier
pretty sure you can solo everything up to ? pretty ez as prot
gotcha thanks
i assume the tier is the only thing worth considering here? 🤔
Hey guys just getting into prot. Do you guys do solo content as prot or do we respec to dps?
is there a site with current routes for m+ or do we just fend for ourselves?
keystone.guru or w/e
Search any key + route on google, and its usually the first thing that comes up
same just did it and was super low, had to go back and clear main room
Grim Batol was also wrong, we are going through MDT now and recounting
shield + wep crithaste
ah yea just throw crit haste on all items and get wrecked later on
why? crit is good defensively and the best offensive stat after haste
dorki has updated routes
can someone link dorki's routes?
i'd like to know why you think this is as well? Vers > Crit?
7s are rough yeah
Grim butthole is awful
the higher you go the more important is vers
anyways
is this even considerable ?
Hello brothers
I have a question.
What is the maximum number of stacks of Ignor Pain? Can you stack it up to? Also, is the amount of shield created by Ignor Pain proportional to my current maximum health?
can i cross realm mythic rn?
Tbh keybinds u need to make efficient and neutral so they can eventually work across other specs or classes rather than copying someone else's setup. Put builders on binds that make sense for you and are comfortable for you whilst spenders are for other fingers, then spread out a bit further for each key press that is cooldown based or alter to shift mods as well. Like I'm left handed for example so my important base rotational things like SS and TC are on "U" and "I" with different fingers for each. Shield wall is literally just Shift + U as its a big cooldown I want easy access to. Things like that make sense for me as someone who's had to basically adjust to the other side of the keyboard lol
These things also hard shift for each tank spec, so if I play any other tank my builder is always on "U" and I'm never deferring from that. My standard maintenance defensive on every tank is "[" as well because it just translates well
does anyone know what key level is hero track?
You mean vault or drop?
Yes I know it's for M+ what I am asking is you seeking for the drop or vault?
because drop is +7 if vault start from +3
thanks @rain light
How's everyone finding mythic+? Am sitting at 606 ilvl, good to jump straight in at +5 and above or worth working my way up?
5s are easy
just did a 9 City of Echoes and only had issues with the last boss but that was dps and healer dying to slam overlaps
I haven't even try M+ 1 hour ago login trying to check vault and all the weeklies, not even doing raid finder yet.
but this is all competent player right? I mean we won't be that lucky sometimes.
anyone kn ows where the person is to downgrade keys ? ^^
I am the person that downgrades keys 🫡
Wrong
Just play the game and find out
I think maybe near the small portal room for timeways?
yo where do you find dorki routes?
Does Dawnbreaker final boss auto-agro immediately after killing the last enemy?
no it doesnt
what should i take? Shield for bis stats or chest for big stats boost?#
shield is only veteran aswell
Do prot warriors do solo content as prot or do we respec?
Is there a m+ build that can do a lot more prio/boss damage than the ones listed in #protection-faq ?
not really at all
both the hero talent builds are like giga aoe centric
i mean if anything i'd assume mountain thane is more prio damage than colossus since you get to shield slam way more
even if it's slightly lower overall dps, idk for sure tho, that's a nome question
thane is ST pump inside spear and roar is decent aoe pad
Both feel like Im missing a lot of boss damage especially while undergeared
i mean
if they're competent, DPS should always hand you your ass on bossfights in keys
especially since we're on tyrannical from 4-9
the longer the fight the less you should do relative to DPS
i also played some cooked colossus build here
Vault was Bad - only 626 neck is solid i think 😦
Question: How many of the Extra Rare raid items this tier do we 100% need if we want to eventually be BIS?
just the neck right'
I imagine your answer could be found on the bis list on any of the 3 websites
no because this happened on my stonevault 4 earlier
literally anything is an upgrade
nice
LMAOOOO
i thought you weren't gonna pvp
Any interesting items from Black Temple Timewalking?
nah they all suck only 597 ilvl
i need honor for the recipes
just do the illidan kill for the heroic item and bail
Nope, this discord is a vastly superior resource to those sites

can already tell you 3rd boss
people doing like 1.5M sustained hps for like 5 minutes straight for stitchflesh
rly gamer
nothing cancer about it that's called getting your balls up as a healer
Man farm 7s for ilvl to be able to do 9s

Sick day tomorrow
was a bit low
stitchflesh made me feel alive!
L
i was sleepy before then
i just wish i got to play dps instead of tanking to play the game
ppl are only crying because this is the first time healers have had to try in months
Stick flesh massive nerfs for the EU gang
mine was 6 ara
Gotta hold back the Na
what is everyone doing for their first craft for prot ?
?
Yooo my bois. Ara Kara Sacbrood still bis even after its nerf? Anyone know?
tbh the only weird thing about this season is that you get runed crests from such a large range of keys but you only get gilded from 9+
that's gonna be slightly painful unless getting to 610-613 actually feels like a huge gain
considering those guides on those sites you dislike are written and maintainted by members of this discord, you can trust them
hey yall! sword and shield bois make good pvp?
im pretty sure tanks take 50% increased in pvp
you think that is bad, look at my shield
craft a shield 4head
may i know where to get the m+ routes?
thank you so much @bleak delta
I think Im going to grind honor before I make the shield
all tanks have to do their homework now...
I cba paying some bozo to craft and I can just make it with the honor
its actually kinda fun once you figure it out, and start making your own stuff. 🙂
and yw
rofl
lol
Until you want a second opinion, I agree
yeah I was wondering, but icy veins specifically has a prot warr guide up when they don't for other tanks so I was curious. I'd love to do it if it's anyu good ^^
second opinion from who?
got no stam or secondaries on it
yeah true, guess not worth it
would this be the spear build for m+?
just use the builds from icy veins or wow
drop piercing challenge and endurance training (if you dont need the stam) and take 2/2 cruel strikes
how do i get mythic key?
so is this bis, should I spend crests on it
do an m0 or join another m+
worked for me. but the aura damage was kinda nuts compared to it in SL
Are you trying to imply Nomeratur’s opinion is always right/another person couldn’t be right about something that a Wowhead writer maybe got wrong?
Because I have no idea what you’re trying to prove or disprove, but I don’t think it’s working
That the same people who write the guides are the people providing information here
Sure but they’re not right about 100% of things 100% of the time, which is MY entire point lol
when it comes to a list complied of hard bis items thats been simmed and tested with thousands of combinations, yes he is correct
That’s why I value a second opinion and/or the discourse that this discord offers, where a static Wowhead page cannot offer that
The pages are updated?
You’re either trolling or actually not getting it lol
It doesn’t matter I guess. I’m not a mythic raider anyway
its not his opinion based on feelcraft, its theory crafted
There is no way im the person trolling
ther is something seriously..... dunno the word here.....
enticing to madness or the voices, basically, about ara kara
Is there a link anyone has to a trinket tierlist? or is the wowhead guide good enough?
any time ara kara for any reason, some5hing goes wrong somehow
loot, didnt kill adds, didnt avoid, block list farming
stood in shit, beetle got his alert cast off is bingo free space
these things dont happen in uh, dawn breaker
is it worth to go for the 2 set bonus with catalyst for M+ or just wait until I get it naturally?
Got an HC helm from vault so I'm wondering to catalyst or not
intuition tells me no tho
brothers i need help

Im torn between trinket and one hander. I dont really consider any other options.
(as prot)
u take the 1 hander
How does this work? Do you go to the usual crafter? The spark of omens can only do 593?
ty thats where im leaning too, but whats the reasoning here how important is weapon dps for prot. (im first time tanking in this expansion)
Hi, before starting to play some m+, I just had a little question
is there some basic addons for someone thats new to tanking like rotues and stuff like that
firs time in general
what do u do whem the nig machine pulls the box in stone vault?
stay on the outside
outsode where? the flame waves come out at every angle it seems
no they come out the side of the box
not the corners
that gives u 4 places where to stand
or stand right on the edge of the room
and just move out the way of the ball
10ilvl upgrade(also herotrack then) on wep vs 2 set? Any idea what to go for sims say one hander
Waves come out like a + to visualize, so you're safe on X
the 1 hander
tier is worth nothing
Okay Cheers
But you're worth everything, Jakey

Yeah out tierset sounds pretty bad to me
ur welkom

this for the fire explosion when the ROBOT mount pulls a box and it explodes to waves of fire that seemingly cover the whole map
?
The second is sorta for that, but if you stand on the + section, you need to walk around the wave
so max distance it?
Yeah, what Jakey posted is where to stand
One of the vents isn't active
ok so stand on whatever vent isnt active
yer thats kind of the fight

fight = solved
VENTING?
SUS
just wait until healers start telling you your the best warrior tank they have ever played with
Blizzard: "Gottem"
More like Tanks a lot guys
Am I right?
vault was so nice to me
Brothers in Arms, I require assistance
https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-gb/character/eu/blackhand/frauensache
Am I picking the 2-Piece? The Main Hand?
I'd take the Heroic 1H just to ensure the mog on my own end, not gonna lie
2 piece is way better than the 613 weapon lol
The legs would make the most sense, right? The 1H can be crafted, + is "only" Hero Level
Cheers, love you guys
u can craft a 636 weapon if u got the funds with the right stats aswell
go for the 2 set
also legs is big stat piece
Are people leaning towards dawnthread or duskthread more when it comes to their embellishments? Seems like dawnthread synergizes with the tier set more (shield slam crits)
vers one because most of my gear wont have vers
so it will do more to have the stat i have less of
by "my gear" ya just mean the gear you got on hand or like, the BiS gear we aim for
both
mmmm ok fair fair
I've currently got one of each since I grabbed them while they were cheap as fuck my crit is kinda low, but I'm aiming to have high crit/haste eventually
right
in week 1 of the season to get gear
thanks Jakey!

jesus christ you have a lot of patience, i would left that key ages ago
Yo I couldn't see it anywhere, but did ProtWarr get any nerfs in this past week? I only saw the Mountain Thane buffs
not really? we actually got a buff with the mountain thane
guild group, want to do 9s so weekly no elave the 10 to get 9 keys from the chest
That's what I thought, guess I was wrongly informed
thank the heavens, I'd be so gutted if we got nerfed cos of Fury xD
damn... guild groups, double-edged. In one hand, great friends to chill about when the keys goes well. In the other hand, when the keys goes poor...
fuck, had a dream where i got sikran neck
my vault literally have 4 set pieces, so i guess ill save it after this week raid, if i get a piece this week, i could just grab one from vault
you wouldn't wanna take champions tier pieces, would you
that said, those 616 hero pants
ooof
im thinking in just taking it, and use catalyzer to convert two other champion to tier (i have champion shoulder already)
you have 2 catalyst charges?
dont 👏 waste 👏 cata 👏 charges 👏
we dont? gonna check
our tier set is garbage
we only have 1 charge, and you generally want to use it to get 4 set
save cata for myth track pieces
oh yes we have only 1 charge, idk why i assumed last week also counted
so, uh well i guess ill grab the hero pants to at least activate tier 2
is dk frost bugged in logs or is my guy litearally just afk
Sureki Zealot's Insignia - this neck, bis bis or whatsup with it? 😮
afk for sure
if i dont get my GV rewards right away and wait until i do my heroic raids, do i still get progress on my vault for next week when i do m+/raid?
Help! how good is this Shield? should I fit the set?
if its your highest ilvl shield its good
otherwise is terrible
if its the same ilvl or less as any other shield
hey, im p new overall to wow and trying to figure out which items I shoudl get crafted from bs, google gives conflicting reports, is there anywhere here where thats listed?
yes wowhead or icyveins guidees
yeah thats where teh conflicting info is at
both say the wrists
one says shield one says legs
unless I read it wrong
Icy Veins recommends putting embels on waist, back, or shoes in addition to wrists, as those are lower budget items
since if you're at max ilvl of everything, your crafted items will be at a lower ilvl
your miss reading
nither say legs
wowhead says weakest armour pieces
which is the same list as icy veins
The reason Wowhead also recommends a shield is because it's one of the fastest ways to get an almost highest ilvl shield very early on, as well
Since crafted gear is still only 3 ilvls below max if you chuck the highest tier enchanted crest at it
or maybe 6
something not like drastically far behind
ye I can make t5 stuff for myself just not wanting to mess up on what to craft xd
i mean that is for a sheild tbh
You'd eventually stop using the crafted shield, preferably, but it is a way to fast track your shield ilvl
What pieces/embellishments did M+ tanks craft?
I just saw it doesn't even have stamina on it, so it's the set legs!
yeah it's a garbage shield; the effect is a nothing in comparison to the lack of stam and secondaires
And crafted shields are safe. If you r not raiding mythic, vault ist your only chance for maxed shields. At some chars i never get any mythic shield from the vault…
Though first boss does drop a shield, and it should be puggable
Sucks quickwick candlestick is on a 2min cd
Have our trinkets BiS been updated yet? With the nerfs that went out to some of them, I figured it might have changed
which is better?

hel`p
I dont think that anyone knows the stats at the delve rings
Download Simc add on, hit the icon, ctrl-c the info, then go to raidbots and hit top gear, paste that info in to the field there and include great vault options
Haste mastery and hast crit i think
Rainbows 🌈
I saw that
🌈
Haha phone didn't like it at first xD
btw arent omens kinda useless since they are up to 597?
or am I missing something, I dont craft anything pretty much
nerf grim batol 3rd boss asap
I mean youll have to post that on the blizz forums if u want them to actually do that
Well the definatly wont read it in here 
i just wrote to chat about it
This just to grab without thinking or? 😮
Very rare piece if its on our list i would take it
It is on wowhead and icyveins as "bis raidloot"
So u take it
😮
Surely i take this right
exactly what i was talking about 😛
I have this too 😂😂
Hey! Could anyone please help me figure out what to pick here?
yes
Lucky lucky yall. Best I had was all the tier options I could want xD
Which is still better than some I know
Is there a way to add sockets to non crafted jewerly?
Is the Reactive Webbed Escutcheon 616 worth picking? Or is that shield garbo?
if its your highest ilvl shield its good
if its not or the same ilvl as another one
its garbage
it would be worth to craft vambraces/belt with runed runes or wait until i get to high keys to get carved? im told is cheap to recraft later
I know shield is very important, but, vault gave me the Rasha'nan cloak.
Although I'm currently already wearing a hero track crit/haste cloak, so, I'm doubting if it's worth getting it over the 616 hero track crit/haste shield (currently using a 606 veteran track shield)
I won't be raiding mythic, but my first spark craft would most likely be a shield...
Would you go for the cloak, or the shield?
🤔
