champions spear seems really bad? is it just there for damage alone?

lusty grotto
#

dont run ITF if you can handle gaps and uptime

#

no reason to

restive oak
#

get hasted out first

chilly brook
#

You could just get more shield block uptime by not running it rn and just pull bigger

lusty grotto
#

there is NO shame in running HR

chilly brook
#

Wanna do more dam? Do bigger pulls

lusty grotto
#

do not run HR if you cant handle it

restive oak
#

true

lusty grotto
#

HR is not a pity talent

red otter
#

(what is hr)

chilly brook
#

Heavy Repercussions

lusty grotto
#

heavy repercussions yea

chilly brook
#

Talent

lusty grotto
#

i personally run HR

red otter
#

oh that one

chilly brook
#

Like legit just pull like a mad man

#

Very fun this season

restive oak
#

more worried about group than me, lol

chilly brook
#

I wish I recorded that 9 Stonevault last night

#

I was pulling like a mad man

#

But the resto Druid was an absolute chad

red otter
#

whats more rage? heavy repercussions or the haste talent

chilly brook
#

Woulda two chested but one wipe killed that 😦 went the whole dungeon until the last pack without a wipe

restive oak
#

haste

lusty grotto
#

haste

chilly brook
#

I mean that depends

lusty grotto
#

its hastened

#

read the tooltip

chilly brook
#

But more rage in a vacuum doesn’t mean better

lusty grotto
#

yes

#

haste affects it

#

thats what we're getting at

#

read the tooltip

#

shrug i dont have it on my bear

chilly brook
#

I mean why run a tank trinket anyways

#

So what?

lusty grotto
#

i woudlnt run that trinket in 10s anyway

chilly brook
#

I’m pugging 10s and running the DPS build as a brewmaster

restive oak
#

isn't the arsenal thing a tank trinket?

chilly brook
#

I’m not the limiting factor

lusty grotto
restive kettle
#

so, grim batol last boss, can you spell reflect and eat the tentacles? (heard its possible)

restive oak
#

it has some defensive stuff on it too lol

lusty grotto
#

its minimal

restive oak
#

wasn't sure

lusty grotto
#

its a dps trinket

restive oak
#

i running that and a skolamax shard til i can get a nice sac

queen hemlock
#

are shields or weapon more important on a prot warrior?

chilly brook
#

That trinket especially isn’t going to make a meaningful difference in your ability to live

restive oak
#

you are already tanky enough though

queen hemlock
#

oh fuck oke nice thanks

raven knoll
#

why does the standart m+ build for mountain thane have no intimidating shout in it? isnt it mandatory anymore?

lusty grotto
#

not really

#

but

#

you can swap uhh

#

rumbling earth for it

queen hemlock
#

oh btws, whats the best talent point to swap for disrupting shout?
ive specced out of the bleed for rage thing before and realise wow that shit generates a fuck ton of rage dont think i wanna drop it

raven knoll
raw parcel
#

It is taking all of my patience to resist crafting some good shit with my 636 crests. Gotta wait til vault, it's the right choice. :x

merry sluice
#

well talenting disrupting shout is expensive

#

that's why its generally recommended against

raw parcel
#

What even can you drop for it? Prot feels amazing right now, but the spec talents are not at all flexible.

pseudo bane
#

Is there still a spreadsheet going on for Spell reflect abilites for TWW?

lusty grotto
pseudo bane
#

oh i'm blind, I was literaaly in there thank you

raw parcel
#

That guide is so helpful. Anima slash can be reflected! 😄

#

I love it. Not something I would intuitively assume is.. reflecty.

cinder marsh
#

can someone link me the specific talents for prot war for the magetower

#

im looking at wowhead and icy and i just cant find the talents for it

lusty grotto
#

go with whatever does the most dps

#

thane execute or colossus execute

#

since MT is majorly a prio target fight

#

honestly talents shouldn't really matter

#

make sure you eat current food

#

cause the food isnt scaled iirc

#

so you can just outdamage and its piss easy

#

or so ive heard

#

thats what i said

cyan drum
#

Whats the difference between ilvl parse and actual parse ? which one is more important

lusty grotto
#

actual compares with everybody

#

ilvl compares with same ilvl

#

ilvl parse percent = you ranked X% amongst players of the same class with the same ilvl as you

#

actual = you ranked x% amongst all of your same class that logged

#

class/spec

cinder bridge
#

does anyone recognize the shield block/IP weak aura to the right? it doesn't show up in my weak aura list at all (gone through every single one, and it doesn't show up when I do /wa and turn everything on)

#

it's not part of the default UI is it?

lusty grotto
#

nah

#

theres no such thing in the default ui

#

unless

#

its a button

cinder bridge
#

turning off weakaura addon removes it

#

so it's definitely a WA... gaaaaaah

lusty grotto
#

have you used the search

cinder bridge
#

ya

#

and literally gone through every single aura (loaded and unloaded)

#

it shows up in combat but I can't actually manipulate them in combat

tender reef
lusty grotto
#

there you go

cinder bridge
#

I don't have anything called koda

lusty grotto
#

oof

#

can you

#

post your WA list

warm plinth
#

Nim's mom is called Koda

#

gottem

#

❤️

cinder bridge
lusty grotto
#

windows key + shift + s

#

and paste here

cinder bridge
#

that would take a long time, I have maaaaaaaaaany WAs x)

lusty grotto
#

ideally anything warrior related

cinder bridge
#

I fouuuuuuuuuuuuund it

violet flume
#

is it bad if i feel my 580 warrior is as tanky as my 605 brewmaster

cinder bridge
#

it WAS koda but I don't know if the addon bugged or something, because now I can search for it and it is in the list

violet flume
#

maybe its just the fact protwar is proactive with ignore pain vs brewmaster i have to react more to high damage idk

cinder bridge
#

where it wasn't previously

inner wren
wide charm
#

Does anyone know where that little % threat option is in the default wow ui?

#

That 2008%

#

Apparently, many people I know do not see this ever

violet flume
#

i think its only shown for tanks?

#

could be absolutely wrong

wide charm
#

no, even with all add-ons disabled and in fury spec I still see it

#

I use to use it in DF whenever I played my alt warlock

#

it's immensely helpful as a dps to see when you are about to rip threat and it feels like dps never know until they are getting punched in the face

#

so I asked a few people I knew and like 2 had it and 4 didn't

violet flume
warm plinth
wide charm
#

yeah I checked both of those spots and nothing seemed obviously related

#

searching in options for aggro or threat doesn't yield many options

#

i actually hate brann so much now

timber night
#

so dwarf is technical bis for prot warrior? 😄

#

I'm thinking about making one and idc about race aesthetic so I'm wondering what is most optimal

mighty valley
#

yeah the stat differences are miniscule so bleed removal is one of the few things that matter

velvet jolt
south zealot
#

yes go dwarf

velvet jolt
#

But little dwarf is probably best race

odd delta
#

is prot S tier for M+ atm?

south zealot

depending on what you consider s tier

What’s an s tier

is beladars bulwark worth crafting?

vivid orchid
#

nah

im assume proc rate not that high

vivid orchid

the other embellishments are just better

foggy lynx

does it count as an emblishment?

yea

Is revenge ever hit in high keys?

Should I use my mark of the spelunker supreme to get tier pants now, or wait til vault on tuesday....

Hi folks, was looking for a bit for an easier necrotic wake route and found this.
I don't understand how to get up the southern stairs like this?

#

I've mostly just been yoloing keys in +2-4 range so far and suceeding, but wake is kicking my ass

zealous goblet
#

i've been wondering, is there a good solution to spell reflect on freecasting mobs?

#

or is it pretty much just 1/5 chance they choose you?

ancient scaffold
tepid reef
#

Okay thank you, (I also tank, so i would be leading XD)

last lintel
#

okay here's a serious question. The last boss in Ara'kara I leap out last second but sometimes it pulls me back mid-air. Is there a trick to it?

zealous goblet
#

it roots you which you can either avatar out of afterwards if you're lazy, shockwave, or interrupt the mob in your feet

last lintel
#

I know

#

but u dont have to. and sometimes theres no blood

violet ginkgo
#

I think he want to try cheese it without using the puddle

zealous goblet
#

well i recommend it unless your group is struggling, because it is very survivable but the debuff puts a damage penalty on you, not just a damage taken penalty

#

-75% done
+75% taken

#

if you have to soak it, put a shield wall up

#

he did about 200k

#

We get 8 total catalyst charges for the season right?

copper gale
#

I NEED opinions; upgrade 619 crafted shield to 636, or use new spark and craft belt 636 to upgrade my generic 606 piece

Upgrade shield

#

Shield is prio

chilly brook
zealous goblet
#

how close is bloodborne to being a taken talent? i feel like so many of warrior's talents are so good

azure dagger
#

so i get that mountain thane is best because of aoe and rage gen but, is colossus a dps increase at all for pure single target fights?

#

just thinking about easy content like normal bosses

mighty valley
#

yeah it's higher dps in some situations

#

and if it's a normal boss why not have fun

How are people getting this at champion track?

hey guys, starting to push into 10s now, I'm at 17% crit, should I use a crit flask instead of vers?

dark plover
zealous goblet
#

wait something flew over my head the other night

#

why is it recommended you take bolster if you drop shield charge for BSV? surely HR is enough?

#

or was that in reference to someone saying ITF while taking BSV because you're already playing risky or something?

hard vessel
#

How much unbuffed % haste do we Need to use ITF?

jagged pier
#

35-40

pallid quiver
#

You need at least 3 of the 4 block talents on the tree to ensure 100% block uptime. If you're taking BSV at all, it should be in M+ because of how raids work in their damage profiles. That means you need 100% block uptime while actively tanking, since otherwise, you're actively attempting to die when block falls off.

If you're grabbing BSV, the least impactful thing to lose is the capstone for Shield Charge that gives SB uptime when used. So you're down to just HR and Enduring Defenses. As a result, you need to grab Bolster to make sure you hit the 100% uptime breakpoint

#

How are you guys surviving the duo Guardian packs in the maze mists? Even with cooldowns they end up wrecking me at +9/10. Their dot and slash are seemingly unavoidable? Feels like I’m missing something.

pallid quiver
#

You can spell reflect anima slash for a start

#

And then it's also spell blockable

graceful kite
zealous goblet
#

even with talent it's still 2 mins, no?

graceful kite
#

Good times

pallid quiver
#

You lose zero time of SB uptime since you'll shoot up past the cap since Bolster is handled separately

molten gorge
#

I'm truly fascinated by how often I'm reading people dying to anything in a 9 or 10

torn ermine
#

I’m truly fascinated by how often I’m reading snarky messages from people who have nothing better to say.

molten gorge
# jagged pier 35-40

This surely isn't accurate? I tried running ITF, did some 11s with more blocked hits than I had with the other and it felt comfy. I think I'm at like 18k haste unbuffed rn

lusty grotto
#

its accurate

molten gorge
#

Dorki even is running ITF in 13s

opal sierra
molten gorge
#

And isn't at 40% unbuffed

#

As are the other high key warriors

lusty grotto
molten gorge
#

Did he die? 🤷‍♂️

lusty grotto
jagged pier
#

that wasnt the question

#

u can run itf at any haste % u want

lusty grotto
#

youre moving goalposts

jagged pier
#

u will loose block tho

molten gorge
#

Show me a 100% block log

#

With the other talent

#

From one of you

lusty grotto
#

we're not recommending to people doing 12s

#

this channel doesnt exist solely for whoever pushes high

molten gorge
#

Lower keys it matters less to block 100%

lusty grotto
#

says who

#

lower key players want to improve

#

why wouldnt they care about it?

molten gorge
#

Says literally Nome? As he's running ITF also cause "things don't hurt"

#

In 10s and below

jagged pier
#

i mean getting 100% is almost impossible due to gather packs and what not

molten gorge
#

What you're saying is

jagged pier
#

but u can get much high with HR

molten gorge
#

Hang on

#

About to obliterate this

jagged pier
#

ive had a 98 % but that an old expansion

#

so not really worth the argument

lusty grotto
#

im not entirely sure why this is such a big deal

#

we're not placing you under arrest for your talent picks

molten gorge
#

Without 35%

jagged pier
#

show log

molten gorge
#

I will

#

Second

molten gorge
jagged pier
#

i mean argue with nome and mwahi then

#

then us

#

and if its from last week dont link it because u got free haste last week

#

which made itf viable

molten gorge
#

It's not

#

It's this week

lusty grotto
#

moving goalposts again

molten gorge
#

Yes?

lusty grotto
#

ok so wheres the math?

jagged pier
#

no we are giving the recommened information out to ppl like we are supposed too

zealous goblet
molten gorge
#

I said: this surely isn't correct?

#

Panic ensued

jagged pier
lusty grotto
#

so wheres your math?

#

youre arguing otherwise

#

but not seeing any theorycrafting

jagged pier
#

im still waiting for the log personally

molten gorge
#

I'm showing results when I get out of bed

jagged pier
#

but he keeps yapping

molten gorge
vale bolt
#

What's the go with Colossus? I actually don't mind pressing it as prot surprisingly

jagged pier
#

then why start without proof

molten gorge
#

Fucking hell, you two simps LOVE yapping

jagged pier
#

u can just do true me bro

molten gorge
jagged pier
#

no u said surely not

molten gorge
#

And you lads immediately got your knickers in a twist

jagged pier
#

then spoke about dorki

molten gorge
jagged pier
#

then said well ive done it

molten gorge
#

Surely not?

jagged pier
#

and provided

#

nothing

molten gorge
#

Ya so I am providing

#

Relax lads

jagged pier
#

u go surely not, heres my log

lusty grotto
#

hmm

molten gorge
#

Didn't realise, my bad

jagged pier
#

well i did give u log with HR which was 7% more blocked hits than dorkis ITF logs

#

then u said u did that without HR

#

and havnt provide anything

#

except trust me bro i have a log

zealous goblet
#

its 4am i came to shitpost but i see nows not a great time

vale bolt
#

Class discords and having a complete meltdown, name a more iconic duo lmao

molten gorge
#

Found it

lusty grotto
#

dawnbreaker huh

zealous goblet
lusty grotto
#

so the dungeon where

molten gorge
#

got to get up, get to PC (in my mansion), then turn it on

lusty grotto
#

you dont chain pull in?

#

cause you have to fly everywhere?

#

meaning SB freely resets

molten gorge
#

moving goalposts are we

#

🤭

lusty grotto
#

absolutely

vale bolt
molten gorge
#

I said it was possible

#

it is possible

#

🤝

#

GG lads

#

see you next circus

lusty grotto
#

congratulations

molten gorge
#

thanks

lusty grotto
#

turns out context is important

molten gorge
#

feel free to roast my log btw

jagged pier
#

Yer in dawnbreaker where all the mobs cast

molten gorge
#

I am new to prot so

jagged pier
#

Look at your mistd log

#

82%

molten gorge
#

Mists was a bad time

jagged pier
#

Because your running itf

lusty grotto
#

🙂

molten gorge
#

I haven't logged a good mists yet

#

the one corrupted

#

like none of the Mists logs are a 10

jagged pier
#

Look at ara

lusty grotto
#

well i guess we'll run ITF in dawnbreaker, youve provided proof enough

jagged pier
#

Same thing

#

82%

#

Possible in one dungeon

molten gorge
#

you're looking at

jagged pier
#

Where mobs cast mpre than melee

molten gorge
#

Ara btw

#

I probably wasn't ITF

jagged pier
#

U can run itf when u like

molten gorge
#

those were last week iirc

jagged pier
#

U are

lusty grotto
#

lmao even worse

molten gorge
#

they're old tho

lusty grotto
#

free haste, remember?

molten gorge
#

like check my Shield Wall casts in that Ara it's probably atrocious

jagged pier
#

No they arent they are from the same log

molten gorge
#

which?

#

Oh

jagged pier
molten gorge
#

Ya I mean we wiped, cause I fucked up

#

yayaya I see

#

As I said before, I'm new to prot warr and to tank

jagged pier
#

Wiping has nothing to do with blocked hitd eh?

molten gorge
#

well it does

#

cause if you don't press block

#

you die

#

if mobs hit you in the back

#

you die

lusty grotto
#

lets recap by saying, you can run ITF if you like, but its not something we will recommend, that doesnt mean your pick is illegal in real life

molten gorge
#

and I do do that

jagged pier
#

That wont reduce it by 13%

#

Over the dungeon

molten gorge
#

sure, but it'll be lower is my point

#

I have good and bad dungeons, still learning

#

my point at the beginning was (and still is) that you can run ITF at lower and not die in what are relatively high keys rn

#

which i think Nome has even said in here himself

#

several times

lusty grotto
#

if youre making it work, youre fine

#

but again

jagged pier
#

But that wasnt the original question so why was that your orginial point

lusty grotto
#

we will not recurringly recommend it here

vale bolt
#

Can someone link me a colossus build for M+ that I can play around with?

jagged pier
#

All ypur logs have shown if the info we have litteeally said

molten gorge
#

how much do you need to use ITF

lusty grotto
#

and that's still true

molten gorge
#

no?

jagged pier
#

Thata true

molten gorge
#

clearly if people are doing 13s with less

#

than 35-40

lusty grotto
#

youre new, we had breakpoints in here

molten gorge
#

you don't NEED

jagged pier
#

Because its a general reccomendation

lusty grotto
#

and people would ask about them

jagged pier
#

We dont go off what top ppl are doing

molten gorge
#

I didn't say you did?

jagged pier
#

Or what the bottom ppl are doing

#

Its a teccomendation for the majority

#

And that recommendation is 35-40%

molten gorge
#

the question he asked wasn't "when can I swap to hit 100% uptime" tho

#

so I was like

lusty grotto
#

when people ask that question, they have asked it before

molten gorge
#

huh, seems high to say 35-40

lusty grotto
#

youre not getting it

jagged pier
#

In dawnbreaker

molten gorge
#

your response was about 100% uptime

jagged pier
#

In every other dungeon no

molten gorge
#

which is perfectly fair

jagged pier
#

Doesnt matter about uptime

molten gorge
#

I just didnt' read it that way

jagged pier
#

It matter about when tbe talent is better run in general over itf

molten gorge
jagged pier
#

Which is still 35-40%

molten gorge
pallid quiver
#

damn i wish i wasn't typing on my other screen

molten gorge
#

if uptime didn't matter, you'd always take ITF

pallid quiver
#

i wanted to screen cap the 354%

molten gorge
lusty grotto
#

not quite

#

because ITF is infinately better at a certain percent

#

and that's the answer

#

it just happens that its directly tied to SB hastened cd

jagged pier
#

Basically yer

lusty grotto
#

at a certain percent and beyond

molten gorge
#

okay, but it's because of the uptime, that it's better

#

2 rage isn't the reason

zealous goblet
#

i feel like a more fruitful use of your time is to just run colossus if you're aching for big damage and stuff rather than trying to run itf subobtimally since they both thrive in similar environments, which is "keys low enough" or "content familiar enough" or whatever

#

rather than this bickering

molten gorge
#

like just reading the tooltips, you can tell that

lusty grotto
#

its about damage

#

and uptime

molten gorge
#

damage you'd take ITF

lusty grotto
#

sim

#

with or without

#

and let us know if we're wrong

#

link the sims as well

zealous goblet
#

also itf might still be lower damage because of how much shield slam damage you'd lose

#

tl;dr run colossus with HR for best of both worlds maybe

molten gorge
lusty grotto
#

sub 35% ITF vs sub 35% HR yes

molten gorge
#

Ya I'm below 35

pallid quiver
# zealous goblet i feel like a more fruitful use of your time is to just run colossus if you're a...

You can manage to run ITF in higher keys without too much issue if you can get around the "I'm failing to mitigate anything as the spec that is literally based the most around mitigating damage", as well; it provides a notable DPS increase in AOE just due to cycling more rage overall. The biggest issue is that in higher keys, your SB uptime will suffer against bosses, who can run the risk of absolutely clapping you if you don't mitigate

molten gorge
#

sec

jagged pier
#

Its different for every char at one point last expansion someone was simming higher eith immoveable object shruge

green bronze
#

i just had an extra hulking bloodguard in ara kara when went left, why did he appear all of a sudden?

#

i don't think it happened to me before

molten gorge
#

how do I make it have players nearby on the sim? or does it do that automatically?

zealous goblet
molten gorge
#

139k less

#

🤷‍♂️

lusty grotto
#

the sims assumes 5 stacks

pallid quiver
#

generally the above requires the healer to babysit you, which is often less than preferred when the DPS are often struggling to not get absolutely pulverized in higher keys

i mean

thats how it is

#

so

zealous goblet
lusty grotto

based on all of this info

molten gorge

that's HR is less btw

zealous goblet
#

i watch my teammates blow up

#

and i am powerless

for all i can do is smol scream every 3 minutes

140k less dps for HR over ITF

also tick off lust

due to its nature

just out of curiosity are you shooting this suggestion because of it not being tyrannical pre-10 this week or? because my boss fights on 10s rn are a lil gnarly and not 1.5 mins

or is it the norm?

its the norm

without lust

is there a case when HR wins over ITF? i mean HR doesnt really give damage outside of giving a few rage

molten gorge
#

and uptime

sweet summit
#

hr is always worse offensively

molten gorge
graceful kite
molten gorge
#

idk what this conversation is

lusty grotto
#

ok so lets recap again

green bronze
zealous goblet
#

which might just be more dps than what itf provides

sweet summit
molten gorge
#

ig if you had insanely low haste

#

maybe

#

Nim writing an essay recap rn

#

pogging

zealous goblet
green bronze
#

it all depends on your comp and how good players in your party are

lusty grotto
#

130k~ dps difference which is not huge in favor of ITF at fully buffed which includes skyfury, but not lusted sim, at a cost of lower SB uptime and overall surv

#

130k gained in a perfect scenario

#

you will not have 5 stacks all the time in keys so it'll go down

molten gorge
#

I take items that are a 5k upgrade

molten gorge
#

and usually when it matters

#

big burst

lusty grotto
#

will you always have skyfury

molten gorge
#

Sim isn't perfect, you've got to look at reality as well

#

and reality is, a lot of people are running ITF on keys (incl Nome who wrote the guide)

lusty grotto
#

if the dps gained isnt huge

molten gorge
#

so to suggest you NEED 35-40 to run it

#

I don't think is accurate personally

lusty grotto
#

does the 130k outweight the cost?

molten gorge
#

yes

lusty grotto
#

ok

#

we're still not gonna suggest it

#

because, i for once dont think it's worth

molten gorge
#

what % of my damage is that, like 5% ?

molten gorge
#

how much is that dps wise

#

ig you get 1% parry too keks

sweet summit
#

nop

molten gorge
#

make it make sense

sweet summit
#

parry comes from rating not %

molten gorge
#

lol even better

#

ig 5% crit dmg tho

#

let me sim the loss from that talent actually

sweet summit
#

but stam is also highkey worthless

molten gorge
#

and we can decide if that's worth

sweet summit
#

so that's a baf comparison

#

bad*

molten gorge
#

I see people using 2/2 Endurance also

sweet summit
#

as a tank you're never getting one-shot

molten gorge
#

sure

#

but it feels comfier with a more soaking health pool

#

idk, I'll be running 2/2 in 12s next week for sure

lusty grotto
#

"feels"

sweet summit
#

feelycrafting :/

toxic gyro
# molten gorge yes

Horribly wrong, every time you die bc of lack of sb you either deplete in higher keys or cause a wipe aka lose way more than your 130k that is not even accurate in a lot of situations. Also Everytime you don’t even die but take extra dmg bc of it your healer doesn’t dps, so your 130 isn’t worth it.

molten gorge
#

🤷‍♂️

lusty grotto
#

you know how you dont die

molten gorge
#

and the guys in higher keys are literally running ITF

lusty grotto
#

keeping SB up with proper talents

jagged pier
#

Guys in higher keys arent pugging

#

And have an experienced group around them

zealous goblet
lusty grotto
#

if your fall back is gonna be "guys in higher keys" all the time

molten gorge
#

who's moving the goal posts now? keks

lusty grotto
#

there was never a goalpost to begin with

molten gorge
#

the guy said

lusty grotto
#

this is a fluid conversation

zealous goblet
#

i saw one guy who took ravager out back and executed it

molten gorge
#

"in higher keys"

#

so I countered

#

with info

zealous goblet
molten gorge
#

from higher keys

#

and this discord is apparently not for higher keys

lusty grotto
#

bandi has ran keys way higher than you will possibly run just to be clear

molten gorge
#

it's for the average man

#

and as i said

#

even Nome is running ITF in <10s

#

because

#

they don't hurt enough

#

and he's said many times, that he's running ITF for that exact reason

#

in this discord

lusty grotto
#

nome is not the people asking for advice

jagged pier
#

But he doesnt recommend, he sayd u can run it because they dont do any damage for him. Thats different than you average joe doing a 4

lusty grotto
#

youve mentioned him how many times, how could you possibly not see this?

molten gorge
#

okay but the guy asked, how much haste do you NEED

#

and clearly

zealous goblet
#

with keys costing 1:15 per party wipe, i feel like you should really be arguing the safer option ngl

molten gorge
#

you do not NEED

zealous goblet
#

the brick rate has been turned to 11

lusty grotto
#

you dont need to tank keys as prot

#

ask Funky

#

hell

#

you dont need to equip a shield to tank keys as prot

#

ask funky

jagged pier
#

You dont need a shield to tank

zealous goblet
#

who is funky

lusty grotto
#

so whats your point?

jagged pier
#

But we recommend u have 1

zealous goblet
#

im out of the loop

jagged pier
sweet summit
#

@cerulean tusk

molten gorge
#

except you do need a shield, you would die

jagged pier
#

No

toxic gyro
# molten gorge just don't die

Bruh 😂 you sound like one of those people that cba even with facts and data thrown at his face, so I’m gonna stop here.

jagged pier
#

Funky didnt

lusty grotto
#

yeah thats why im mentioning him

molten gorge
#

go check rio 🤷‍♂️

#

such a weird cult this disc

jagged pier
#

Ok here one of our top ios playong the game

molten gorge
#

home boys have read a wowhead guide and parrot it

jagged pier
#

Fuck gif inst loading hangon

molten gorge
#

and then say shit like "you hate facts"

lusty grotto
#

and we've dealt with contrarians like you

molten gorge
lusty grotto
#

SO MANY TIMES

molten gorge
#

I'm not being a contrarian lol

#

I'm not saying anything controversial at all

#

I even said earlier, that i obv misunderstood what Jakey meant

lusty grotto
#

you keep going with this, the topic is over

molten gorge
#

then he said "it's not about uptime":

#

and it started again

molten gorge
#

if the answer was because you need 35-40% for 100% uptime to be safe, then obv, I agree

#

but I didn't read it that way

#

since the question was need

lusty grotto
#

are you done?

molten gorge
lusty grotto
#

hes not random

#

hes been in here for a while

#

are you done?

molten gorge
#

random as in not part of the conversation

lusty grotto
#

uh huh

#

ok

zealous goblet
#

who said they hate facts

jagged pier
#

Its a genral forum everyones part of the conversation

toxic gyro
#

In higher keys and good group there’s no downtime to drink a coffee and take a poop break. You chain pull…

molten gorge
#

as my Dawnbreaker was veto'd under these conditions

lusty grotto
#

lmao

#

cant even read

molten gorge
#

I have time between to recharge shield block

#

which is perfectly fair

lusty grotto
#

can you chain pull in dawnbreaker?

molten gorge
#

no?

#

he's saying

lusty grotto
#

bingo, you reached the finish line

molten gorge
#

I think you're confused by what he means

toxic gyro
lusty grotto
#

he still doesnt get it

molten gorge
#

Yeh except people are running ITF in higher keys

#

where they are chain pulling

lusty grotto
#

here's something you may not know since youre new

lusty grotto
#

week 2, twelves are NOT HIGH KEYS

jagged pier
#

Most of the tanks are dps players too

molten gorge
#

they're higher than the 8s the people here are doing, that you're recommending they run HR on

sweet summit
#

can we just agree to disagree? hr is safer ITF is fine once you're comfortable enough ggykw

molten gorge
#

so why would you recommend

#

you keep contradicting yourself

#

you said the disc isn't for high pushers

lusty grotto
#

because the people that ask here for advice arent MDI/TGP players with MDI/TGP teams

#

exactly

#

ty

molten gorge
#

now the guys at the top rn aren't high pushers (which is fair)

lusty grotto
#

take the L, youre embarassing yourself

molten gorge
#

you need HR to do high keys

#

but we don't recommend for high keys

#

like you're all over the place kid

lusty grotto
#

youre the one that mentioned 12s

lusty grotto
#

and im just letting you know since you said youre new

#

apparently you havent ran a week 2 before

molten gorge
#

as I said many times, if you don't need HR for 12s, you definitely don't for 8s

lusty grotto
#

and are swearing on it

molten gorge
#

you said you're recommending for the average player

lusty grotto
#

no

#

i said this channel exists for everyone

molten gorge
#

you're literally flip flopping all over the place

lusty grotto
#

take the L bro

#

youre trying to win nitpicking

#

for what purpose?

molten gorge
#

no?

#

I literally said AGES ago now

lusty grotto
#

last wording

#

for no reason

molten gorge
#

If Jakey meant, 100% uptime

lusty grotto
#

still embarassing yourself

#

you keep going

molten gorge
#

then that's my bad, I misunderstood him

lusty grotto
#

again, are you done?

molten gorge
#

but then he said it wasn't about uptime

lusty grotto
#

are you going on a loop?

molten gorge
lusty grotto
#

am i?

molten gorge
#

yes, you keep responding

#

lmao

lusty grotto
#

are you done?

toxic gyro
molten gorge
#

sure, I don't disagree

lusty grotto
#

aight im heading to bed, this guy cant take a hint

molten gorge
toxic gyro
#

You have shitty m+ mentality as a tank too. It’s not all about you and your damage. M+ is a team effort and you’re being a crutch.

molten gorge
jagged pier
#

Yes i do and that recommendation is always on the safer side because the average player i not that good so running hr even in a plus 2 will be better, and waiting for a certaim haste point is the correct thing, can u make do without ? Sure but in 95% of cases even ppl i top keys running the itf is the wrong choice do they make sure yer doesnt mean its best

#

And i am here to recommend the best option

#

Which is wait

#

For your haste

#

Ppl dont have to take the recommendation shruge

molten gorge
#

Ya fair, I said earlier if that's what you meant then I misunderstood

#

I just was confused when you then said it's not about uptime

#

cause obv that's what makes it safer

#

then it got onto dps difference etc idk, got super far removed

jagged pier
#

Well its about general play too alot of ppl cant play the class with the speed its suppsed to be play at

molten gorge
#

aye I feel you, it's spammy

jagged pier
#

So adding more button pressing with more haste makes it worse

molten gorge
#

I just read you super literally

jagged pier
#

Its okay from what we found today your safe to run itf in dawnbreaker when ever u want

molten gorge
#

hahahaha

#

need to go over that Ara-Kara now cause I played badly

#

is there an easy way to see hit in the back vs block down btw? or am I gonna have to manually pour over it?

jagged pier
#

Might have played badly but i wouldnt expect to see more thab 90% with itf tbh

molten gorge
#

most seem to be like 89%ish I wanna say

jagged pier
#

88%

#

Seems to be what ppl are doing

molten gorge
#

ya sounds right from my memory of the quick checks I had

jagged pier
#

Which is fine in sls season 1 we were happy with 75%

molten gorge
#

tbh rn I've been tryna focus more on using my Defensives, cause week 1 was not a good look

#

I had like 7 shield walls in a whole dungeon keks

jagged pier
#

Cooldowns on cooldown

#

And youll have better use than 90% of ppl

molten gorge
#

ya, I changed some WAs up

zealous goblet
#

wait

#

are the itf users running the haste flask i wonder

#

because reommended consumes on wowhead is the random stat one and the crit one

molten gorge
#

I did wonder the same yesterday

jagged pier
#

U can tell in logs

molten gorge
#

I just wanted to try it out tbh, and was surprised when I didn't just fall over

zealous goblet
jagged pier
#

Maybe

#

Maybe not

molten gorge
#

I'm on there now, I'll check

jagged pier
#

It shouldnt make too much difference tbh

No

They still run rsk

Wdym “still”

pallid quiver
#

i like rsk because it gives me filler for blackout combo

i don't even know if that talent is optimal for damage anymore or not

#

i just like it

chilly brook
#

It’s baseline

jagged pier
#

They ran it last expansion ruint he spec for me

#

Yer

#

It got added

chilly brook
#

You can’t not run it

zealous goblet
#

wtf is rsk

pallid quiver
#

Rising Sun Kick

#

Traditionally was more of a Windwalker monk ability

chilly brook
pallid quiver
#

Brew got access to it baseline going into DF

#

Part of what caused the spec to be bloated to a lot of people

chilly brook
#

It’s a good button

jagged pier
#

Its a bad button rotation isnt fluid anymore

chilly brook
#

It does a lot of things that make it worth pressing

#

Feels fluid to me rn

#

Especially with not playing breath reset

#

But then again I was not a fan of the 1234-1234-1234 rotation that brew became in legion where it was basically static

are you talking about first pull of city of threads?

you either survive those first 2 pulls or you disband basically)

Seems about right

prob not expecting it

apparently rio suggests fighting leitenant alone

sound very inefficient

better in uncoordinated

#

just failed 2 dawnbreakers with that pull, guess ill try fighting leitenaunt alone

wicked pollen
#

just watched a pov of the pull and it seems free but it was prob a coordinated group

#

healer will definitely hate you

green bronze
#

ye, its free if healer is not sleeping

#

and pressing his cds

#

probably have to talk about that pull beforehand, if i want to do it in pug

i agree

U have less caster at curch, nostly just dodging shockwaves

And u can do on other side of fountai where is tons of space

what do you guys think about macroing shield block and ignore pain togehter? so shield block gets prio casted and additional rage goes into IP?

neon elk
#

Dont do that

twin hill
neon elk
#

U will be rage starved , we spam IP a lot but there are cases where u just dont do that .

Like for example using rage for revenge to fish for SS reset while maintaining SB

Thanks for the input. Warrior rotation is new to me, so I try to make improvements where I can

halcyon jungle

so, what abilities are good to macro together with IP?
when i click on IP i put shield slam in that macro aswell which was super helpful

Also u will still need separate IP macro, as there are cases where u want IP while SB isnt "that" important

Did a mists 11, we timed it 4-5 min before timing, 0 death, what dps you need for 12 we 1 phase the first boss, maybe it’s my pulls I’m maybe a bitch

toxic pewter
#

wat

sharp gale
#

Sry maybe my English is bad I’m a baguette, basically how much dps everyone needs to be to time a 12 mist I got in my bag ?

#

Because 4-5 min timed no chance of timing the 12, second boss has 453m in 11 and 600m in 12

pallid quiver
#

Generally, the way to time higher keys is to find ways to pull bigger

#

and manage to have the group not die

#

it's a little hard with mists since you're forced to go pack by pack in the maze, though

I don’t do the double villager first pull maybe it’s time (yes we pulled through maze with dk pet)

Hey guys, apparently spellblock also blocks AOE attacks? i thought it would only block targetted spells no?

It even can block dots so go figure

#

ah ty shenko

pallid quiver
#

Easiest kneejerk rule of thumb is can't block the actual dot portions of dots, and can't block floor effect spells.

As Shenko mentioned, some dot portions of dots are spell blockable, so

it's just whatever blizz says is allowed
