I think (hope) he meant macroing shield slam to ignore pain, not the other way around

lusty grotto
#

again you probably have weapon oils / haste flask / haste food

heavy sparrow
#

What do you guys think about the meta thunder spec vs the not so meta collussus

lusty grotto
#

so youre buffed

#

and/or sacrificing ilvl

tawdry cloak
#

The only reason you do this is so you cast shield slam any time you cast ignore pain

both are viable
mountain thane is tankier

colossus can do illegal lvls of dps, but the rotation is awkward, and rage is more tight.

I wonder why these high rated io started running into the fray already when they are only still at like 25-30% haste

merry sluice

he has to try really hard to die in there

potent tree
#

Why people think playing DH is as easy as it was in legion. Most likely one of the hardest melees to play atm and very easy to die while playing it

lusty grotto
#

kinda feels like the only way to do so is just jumping down without leaping to land or charging or using the slowfall things that the dungeon puts right in front of you

merry sluice
#

one right off the dawnbreaker on last boss

#

one right off the side in grim batol

high wyvern
#

If you dont have enough haste yet

potent tree
#

Same. Spec is pretty hard but people want to play the funny demon guy

but if they feel they can manage it

business as usual, vault day is about over

I do macro ignore pain to shield charge and demo shout tho

#

Huge QOL

lusty grotto

why

Just put IP on scroll wheel

#

Easy to press

#

Don’t macro it to shit

merry sluice
#

i just have it on e

lusty grotto
#

champ's bulwark already gives you an IP

#

why would you macro

#

IP to shield charge lmao

heavy sparrow
#

So what would be better?

/Cast ignore pain
/Cast shield slam?

Or /cast shield slam
And /cast ignore pain

Macro

potent tree
jagged pier
lusty grotto
#

i guess it makes no difference since youll gain rage with SC anyway

high wyvern

#

So i macro it to some of my abilities

tribal wharf

high wyvern
#

But macroing it to shield slam is crazy

tribal wharf
#

i mean, technically, you are correct i hit the " " " ground " " " surfcace

potent tree
#

Scroll wheel will never tire u

shrewd plinth
#

Is the talent for intervene giving the magic shield to allies any good? I know it’s going to be a lot of focus for probably little gain but I’ve been getting more worried about party survival than my survival with ilvls/exp?

Or is that whole talent noob bait?

potent tree
#

Every button u spam on a spec, I use scroll wheel

graceful kite
#

Its alright

merry sluice
# heavy sparrow So what would be better? /Cast ignore pain /Cast shield slam? Or /cast shield ...

what are you trying to get out of this macro?

you still need shield slam bound separately.

the only macro that exists is putting shield slam on ignore pain specifically so you can instantly use your shield slam reset the exact moment it comes up while pressing ignore pain.

otherwise you press shield slam on its own, with or without the macro.

if your goal is to save button binds, it cannot be done

graceful kite
#

And intervene by itself has good use cases

high wyvern
#

And to be fair, i have played a lot of classes, prot warriors have a SHIT ton of buttons i need to bind

#

Compare to other specs that i used to play

merry sluice
#

i feel i actively press more on deathbringer than prot

high wyvern
#

When playing fury i have like less than 10 buttons

#

While prot i have like 20+ keybinds

graceful kite
#

On prot you have 3

tulip remnant
#

And hella long CD buttons

high wyvern
#

I have a keybind of marking skull on caster mob too

shrewd plinth
#

Shield slam, t-clap, revenge, kick and ignore pain/shield block. You can kind of click the rest as needed no?

shrewd plinth
#

Execute I guess

high wyvern
#

Wdym click the rest

merry sluice
#

i still wouldn't click cast shit.

you just don't need to press them every 2 seconds

fossil frost
#

Starting fresh on Prot Warr
Got 2 sparks, what to craft first?
Shield+Wep or?

#

Only M+

tribal wharf
#

or SL

#

clicking EVERY BUTTON

#

they exist

#

i promise

#

i know for fact, yet i cannot prove

potent tree
#

We all know they exist

tulip remnant
#

If it’s over a minute. Usually just click it ngl.

merry sluice
#

dude could not hold aggro to save his fucking life

#

and died constantly, i had to gtfo there

potent tree
#

Try playing enhance. U rip so fucking often

high wyvern
#

Extra buttons that i need on prot compare to like fury: taunt, throw, intervene, shield wall, last stand, spell block, aoe taunt, marker skull macro

#

Had to find a key for all these spells when switching from fury

merry sluice
#

idk i've had zero problems with dps getting threat off me this season

potent tree
#

I just gave up on pugging on my shaman. U hit back to back tempest and shit tanks will all let u die

merry sluice
#

what i have found that's really fun though

tulip remnant
high wyvern
#

As prot warr if u literally hit thunderclap once u can probs afk for the next 5s and ur probs still have threat

merry sluice
#

was this warlock i had in a 10 SoB earlier

#

who full sent all cds before i was eve in melee rang eof trash lmfao

shrewd plinth
#

T-clap avatar t clap just owns aggro

potent tree
#

Why I like playing AFF. U have like 7 global of ramp, so u can’t pull aggro

inner wren
#

i macro'd swarmlord to shield slam, why 1 min cds gotta be so awkward

#

i aint got enough buttons for this

tulip remnant
#

We arent pulling out the healer click wheel yet. We are chilling.

potent tree
high wyvern
#

I was running out of keybinds when i had 2 on use trinket

lusty grotto
#

there's always more keybinds

inner wren
#

at least if the trinket was a 1.5 minute you could tie it to a cd

lusty grotto
#

there's never a scenario where there isnt enough

merry sluice
#

dude was full sending rof, and infernal while my bdk is waddling over

tulip remnant

#

I guess you could macro shield block and shield slam together

#

If ur lazy

jagged pier
#

no

potent tree
#

Is destro even good in m+? I guess they are all viable

ornate thicket
merry sluice
#

still waste rage

#

but you also waste shield block charges

potent tree
#

Stop macroing everything together lol

heavy sparrow
#

I'll try out
/Ignore pain
/Shield slam

merry sluice
#

active mit caps at 3x the duration

merry sluice
#

if you spam shield block for no reason you just waste the cd and rage

potent tree
#

If u want macro like trinkets that line up with cds

im having a hard time finding pugs that can do gilded level keys. im now 2200+ and ive tanked a 10 successfully. i know im capable. but it is very hard to find dps and healers that can actually time. yall have any social cheat codes? or is it really just keep pugging all day

heavy sparrow
#

I'll just put my entire warrior protection rotation on 1 keybinds with my mouse keybinds hitting 10 clicks per button

potent tree
#

But not SB with random stuff u press all the time

#

That is very bad

tulip remnant
high wyvern
#

Just put all buttons in one macro and spam it and hope for the best

all the good players are in 11s and higher now

for puggin at least

So what would you guys take between larynx and hook?

Grim batol looking key

grim batol + pugging makes me want to go backt o palying league instead of walking into that hell hole

#

I feel like signing up as a DPS is basically being a male on dating apps

shrewd plinth
#

Can’t be SoB, that place has a special place in hell

merry sluice
#

at least warrior has stun spam

potent tree
#

Fair

merry sluice
#

i dont mind SoB if i can find a group that has a braincell.
worst thing about sob are tanking packs before the first boss

#

after that its so brain off for me

toxic pewter
#

are enforcers the ogres that hit hard

merry sluice
#

yeah

toxic pewter
#

the dual weilder dudes

#

ya those dudes dont play

merry sluice
#

huh?
you can't skip them

#

they just stack if they swing on the tank

toxic pewter
#

are those dudes actually enraged can people dispel their enrage

merry sluice
#

so you just cc them for like 4 seconds

lusty grotto
#

just spear them

merry sluice
#

overseer's are the ones that need dispelling

merry sluice
#

i hate it more on bdk.

shrewd plinth
#

You can t-clip and wiggle back and forth over the pack, just don’t give them your back and they’ll lose atleast half their contact

lusty grotto
merry sluice
#

i mean that works too but so does just stormbolting it

shrewd plinth
#

All them shaman cap totems racing the mobs to stun immunity 😦

lusty grotto
merry sluice
shrewd plinth
#

That’s more an issue for my personal comps than general pug stuff

merry sluice
#

i get shamans that spam healing surge and still do like 400k hps in a 10

shrewd plinth
#

I play w/ guildies. I wish they had more raw output to go with their good stops xd

merry sluice
#

i know restodruids are ass rn

#

but i prefer them bc that means they actually understand how to play their spec...
unlike last season

#

where every other restodruid was fotm who did like 50k dps if you're lucky

shrewd plinth
#

Ever since I saw augs get blindly invited to keys regardless of skill I’d rather take the high io/ilvl offmeta

merry sluice
#

time for my usual rant

#

about how augs are worse than devoker for any casual group key anyways

#

top player or not

lusty grotto
#

i mean they are

#

right now

#

there's 0 reason to invite an aug

blazing condor
#

thats why you dont invite augs

lusty grotto
#

when dev and pres exist

#

in their current iteration

merry sluice
#

BUT BUT BUHJ BUHTH HJRBHUGNUVB BUT AUG SO OP I NEED IT
"+7 CHECKING LGOS, DON'T BE SHIT"
200 Io.

lusty grotto
#

which is fine

tribal wharf
#

i dont worry about if im inviting aug or dev, i just invite dragon

#

cuz healer dragon is still just healer

#

cuz i also figure that dps dragon will take the spec that suits whats needed

lusty grotto
#

good yogi

high wyvern
#

Sometimes i have the perfect lineup for a juicy spell reflect then someone interrupt the mob critcake

#

Idk if i should be happy or sad

shrewd plinth
#

Did a grim batol with my fury friend and I’m getting my ass handed to me. And I “my spell reflect pad noo”

fervent dune
#

is there a list for useful intervenes in m+?

shrewd plinth
#

Dude I’m dying, I’m hitting stun

lusty grotto
#

thats it

fervent dune
#

first boss nw is huge

#

the frontal thing

lusty grotto
#

2nd floor has fixates too

#

treddy also has fixates on adds

#

in mists

high wyvern
#

Do i have to be nearby intervene target for it to work

lusty grotto
#

if it fixates, you can intervene

#

thats it

#

yes

high wyvern
#

Or can intervene n fk off

tribal wharf
#

i was only getting 3.90m reflects on shadow claw from rock men after boss 1 to boss 2, on +4 sv (farm for cloak and stones)then i remember its tyranical not fort.

ornate thicket
#

Doesnt work on the expel leaps on mists trash :/

lusty grotto
#

its 10 yds for the physical hits

#

stormshield works wherever

dark cosmos
tribal wharf
#

i thought for a brief second they had nerfed my reflecting power on that spell

#

on fort same key lvl its a like 4.8 m reflect

lusty grotto
#

but you want to be 10 yards from the guy on fixates, if they fucking run like an idiot chicken with its head cut off it wont do shit

shrewd plinth
#

Storm shield = 1.5milish?

high wyvern
#

It would be nice to have a list of good mechanics to intervene for M+ this season

lusty grotto
#

...

#

its like

#

i just mentioned

ornate thicket
#

I usually intervene corrupt beams in gb too

#

Helps healer a bit

earnest nymph
lusty grotto
#

you take all the melee the person would take if they get caught up

shrewd plinth
#

Fixates melee a certain random not you player

lusty grotto
#

so they can just stand there and dps while you take the hits

dark cosmos
high wyvern
#

So just fixate mechanics?

shrewd plinth
#

Intervene takes their melees from them

earnest nymph
#

ohhh okay

#

so nothing special

fervent dune
earnest nymph
#

just saving them from not running

ornate thicket
#

Ive saved so many ret pallies on stitch boss nw

lusty grotto
#

?????

tribal wharf
#

so it works on boss 1 siege for 1 melee correct

lusty grotto
#

how is that not special

#

they can stand and dps

#

taking NO damage

earnest nymph
#

I thought it was going to like redirect the fixate I mean

dark cosmos
#

Ya its not like some weird interaction

lusty grotto
#

what

shrewd plinth
#

You let someone stay in contact and take the damage for them

#

Otherwise they’re running to narnia

earnest nymph
#

yeah, that's awesome. didn't mean to diminish the importance of that

lusty grotto
#

or just stand there and pump heals

#

but again

#

they have to be within 10 yards of you

tribal wharf
#

have players gotten smart about take boss 1 siege to the bombs in 3 seconds instead of 15 seconds

lusty grotto
#

if they keep running, they are dead

high wyvern
#

Does it work for fixate for first boss of SoB?

dark cosmos
lusty grotto
#

it does

#

but why would you do it there

high wyvern
#

Cuz people cant kite

lusty grotto
#

you need to tank adds as a tank

#

it makes no difference in that fight

#

you dont take the fixate from them

earnest nymph
#

just meant I thought you were saying it was like redirecting the fixate or something. that's what I meant by 'special'

dark cosmos
lusty grotto
#

they still need to steer it to bombs

dark cosmos
shrewd plinth
#

I mean there’s tanking damage for someone else, and then there’s just tanking extra damage period. Probably not worth. Maybe buy someone half a second to realize they’re fixated then continue as normal

fervent dune
#

PSA the circles without swirlies spawn the bombs on SoB

graceful kite
#

because you won't kite into bombs

tribal wharf
#

alot of boss 1's in keys are noob filters, i wont lie

#

they just do really simple deadly things

#

and it kills anyone new

paper raven
#

What does the block stat do on shields? I mean, I understand it blocks of course, but does it block a flat number? Just because there is also the stat in the stat sheet which says block chance is x% then it says block reduced damage of an attack by x% as well. Which is it? The block number on the shield? Or the block % on the stat?

merry sluice
#

so no

lusty grotto
#

block on shields isnt block chance

#

block chance is irrelevant

#

because Shield Block gives you 100% chance

graceful kite
tribal wharf
#

tell the shaman to enter ghost wolf for that

#

so he can move faster

graceful kite
#

I healed stonevault on my undergeared disc yesterday and first boss took like 5 pulls

paper raven
#

@lusty grotto I mean this, not the block chance but the text underneath.

lusty grotto
#

what does block on shields do ? tl;dr: the higher the number the better

merry sluice
graceful kite
#

it hits real hard especially if people blow up too many spikes at once

lusty grotto
#

where K is a constant we call the K Value

tribal wharf
#

player getting fixate should use thier movement speed abilities then

lusty grotto
#

which changes between content and seasons

dark cosmos
#

ya theres some hard first bosses this season, no doubt

paper raven
#

Ok so block is just a stat then that gives more % reduction the higher it is?

tribal wharf
#

not even hard

#

just filters counters to noob behaviour

#

not moving

dark cosmos
lusty grotto
tribal wharf
#

not dispelling

dark cosmos
#

nothings hard were just bad

lusty grotto
#

up to a certain point

#

Grizzle

#

because the limiting factor is the K value

tribal wharf
#

cuz there are bosses that wont tricky ricky kill youi like boss 1 siege

lusty grotto
#

as seen in the formula

tribal wharf
#

but they will simply numbers you to death

lusty grotto
#

but generally we recommend ilvl > all on shields first and foremost because of that block value (or stat) on shields

#

the higher the ilvl of the shield

#

the higher that block value will be

#

that's why when comparing shields, you should ALWAYS use the higher ilvl one

#

or higher track

tribal wharf
#

everytime you wipe to something a bunch, put it as note in the MDT route

lusty grotto
#

myth being the highest

tribal wharf
#

once you figure out the root causes and solutions to those problems

merry sluice
#

if walking away from boss, or not stacking on players for dispels on orator
or filling the middle of dawnbreaker with massive ass aoe's

etc etc are hard then uh...

i just dunno what to say

hi. as far as i know ppl dont tank swap at silken court heroic i wanna know is there any tips and tricks to deal with piercing strikes of anub arash? last time i did it with guild we killed the boss but i died two times to heavy damage of piercing strikes i checked one of them hit around 11m tho i kinda think its maybe some kinda gearcheck fight like boss goes to phase just in time so you can drop the debuff.

intervene works on any physical hit, they were asking about specific abilities, if you want to clarify for it, we can start naming stuff you could in the past so that they understand how it works, how FH captains needed to be interveneable in high tyrannical during BFA

potent tree
graceful kite
#

I checked it on bloodmallet

#

Guess they updated

turbid shuttle
#

Mwahi said I was correct about rage and shield block uptime, but (incorrectly imo) claimed you'd need to hold shield charge. You do not. So...

plush tendon
#

I think you have decnet options

#

I feel like socket this week would be a waste

#

even myth track belt would be a better long term investment then just sockie

#

but thats me

lusty grotto
#

yeah i agree

turbid shuttle
#

If you think I'm factually incorrect about something feel free to say where and why. Personal attacks are not rebuttals.

lusty grotto
#

socket is just a choice if you only have hero loot in vault and can push higher

plush tendon
#

can you two get a room

lusty grotto
#

ive been done for a while

plush tendon
#

we talking vaults here

nocturne spindle
#

Guys I'm still salty I picked myth track of the bugged 1h weapon with less strength

#

Make blizz fix it

shrewd plinth
#

I mean if you intend to mythic raid, just take the item with the biggest ilvl boost to save as many crests as possible

Gear will eventually fall into your lap for valourstone upgrades*

potent tree
#

Blizzard cannot even finish maintenance in time for the past 3 weeks

lusty grotto
#

yeah i think that's Augusto's point

earnest nymph
#

meaning you don't ever play SC for SB uptime

turbid shuttle
nocturne spindle
#

Zug zug brain if CD available click it

earnest nymph
#

up to a cap, sure. which means you can't assume that you're always getting the full duration SB uptime out of the button press in your arguments in the past

#

whereas with bolster, you do

turbid shuttle
plush tendon
#

first is kind of a pain though

turbid shuttle
#

Just don't send multiple SB back to back and you cannot over cap SB ever.

lusty grotto
#

we've had a couple of people pugging them

#

at least i remember a few people mentioning it

plush tendon
#

I feel like if you can get through 1st and 2nd

#

3rd and 4th arent that big of a step up

lusty grotto
#

yea

#

you can

plush tendon
#

ive been bringing my warrior for Rasha reclear now

#

its night and day how much better it is compared to BDK

earnest nymph
turbid shuttle
plush tendon
#

yo, this convo is giving up sus vibes; no cap, straight ohio rizz

turbid shuttle
#

You don't need to hold SC to prevent overcapping. You can just send it.

#

Ultimately, SC + bulwark gives more rage, more shield block, and more prio damage than ravager + bolster.

earnest nymph
#

okay I think maybe I missed some context to this argument

turbid shuttle
#

The context is what to drop for BSV if you want it. SC + bulwark or ravager + bolster. The current rec from this discord is to take ravager + bolster, and I am arguing this is worse for the above reasons.

tender reef
#

Sorry couldn't help myself ignore me 👍

soft aspen
#

all has same damage

tender reef
#

No

soft aspen
#

yes very similar

plush tendon
#

taking two stacks on warrior

#

we chillin

#

take two stacks on BDK....

soft aspen

which dot

tender reef
#

Rashans dot

#

For the tanks

#

The rashans tank dot

plush tendon
#

fighting for my life

violet ginkgo
#

I thought... BDK was supposed to be stonks against somekind of dots?

merry sluice
limpid ruin
#

It’s based on the initial damage taken

plush tendon
#

so I can force myself to live

violet ginkgo
#

Aaaah....

limpid ruin
#

I take 10% of the phys he does post ip

plush tendon
#

with lots of death strikes

soft aspen
#

just pop defensive

violet ginkgo
#

yeah well sure we only take super little damage

plush tendon
#

then he just flys away

limpid ruin
#

He can press his entire kit and that’s just ip plus d stance lol

plush tendon
#

soft aspen
#

kek

limpid ruin
#

Less actually

plush tendon
#

also, the movement

violet ginkgo
#

ahhh the slowass tank yeah ask druid to roar so you can run or warlock gate

merry sluice
#

bear and warrior are god on that fight
dw, just throw them on mythic broodtwister beforehand

plush tendon
#

I can gate and leap on war

merry sluice
#

holy shit broodtwister is so ass of a fight

plush tendon
#

my DK, I gate then Im hauling ass with the priests

#

trying to make it

merry sluice
#

hear me out

violet ginkgo
plush tendon
#

but good thing I have both

merry sluice
#

im eating all the blue crayons with this one

plush tendon
#

now @limpid ruin has to play BDK too

merry sluice
#

cycle a sikrans to give you the F A T move speed boost before boss flies away

high wyvern
#

Prot is good i wonder why its not used even once in RWF sadge i guess no good utility

merry sluice
#

big brain

lusty grotto
#

if fury or arms were garbage, you would see a lot more prot warriors in RWF

#

due to battle shout

merry sluice
#

dont forget all the a d d fights

#

holy fuck the a d d s

plush tendon
high wyvern
#

Mark of the wild is so OP huh

plush tendon
#

and double fury was stonks

potent tree
lusty grotto
#

its not whether its op or not

merry sluice
#

dw, bdk gets to feel special on broodtwister, and some comps for court though

#

🙂

lusty grotto
#

its that they need to fill all buffs

lusty grotto
#

and thats why naowh played prot pally

plush tendon
#

broodtwister is a prison

#

of pain

lusty grotto
#

with tanks balanced, you pick whichever tank brings the buff you're missing

#

thats it

plush tendon
potent tree
#

Warrior dmg profile was also great in raid

high wyvern
#

Even prot pally?

merry sluice
#

i don't mind diff specs being strong for diff fights
biased though ig

but bdk is only good on brood bc of how utterly dogshit broodtwister is

high wyvern
potent tree
#

And u can play arms for the ST fights

lusty grotto
#

BDKs being useful due to grips, but on Queen you actually do not want a BDK gripping

#

prot pally can help yes

plush tendon
lusty grotto
#

spellwarding, etc

potent tree
#

Fury was crazy good on brood and spider lady

lusty grotto
#

freedoms

potent tree
#

And that was after nerfs

plush tendon
#

Prot Paladin is also cool cause you can freedom webs in p1

high wyvern
#

Give warrior more utility okayge

plush tendon
#

and interrupts p3 maybe?

merry sluice
#

not watching a frost dk grip the stunny freezy fox bastard in on the party in a mists...

#

tbf

plush tendon
#

but I dont think people wanna play Prot Paladin yet

merry sluice
#

i can also just wraith walk myself out of webs

plush tendon
#

I think once the .5 patch comes around people's opinions on it will change

potent tree
merry sluice
#

I used to be a paladin enjoyer
but df said no
then tww said no
then hero talents said no

#

so i will not touch that god forsaken class

#

even with the patch

plush tendon
#

but.... HD judgement

high wyvern
#

Ret is pretty good no?

lusty grotto
#

yes

#

but it doesnt have spellwarding

#

and you dont want a ret dropping WoGs

#

thats a damage loss

merry sluice
#

templar makes me want to vomit
and lightsmith is still lame

dusky canopy
#

The problem with ret paladin is then people expect you to freedom,sac,bop people

#

Couldn’t be me I’m Zuggin

merry sluice
#

the problem with ret paladin is i hate dpsing

dusky canopy
high wyvern
#

Surprise Veng is still really good after such heavy nerfs since DF

#

Their sigils got gutted

merry sluice
#

THE ANNEURYSM ITS COMING, AAA

lusty grotto
#

VDH defensiveness wasnt heavily nerfed

#

and it still brings chaos brand

merry sluice
#

cc was only part of the picture for vdh meta

lusty grotto
#

even if reduced to 3%

merry sluice
#

if u took out vdh dps, chaos brand, mobility, and self healing

but slapped its cc onto a tank spec

#

that tank spec owuld not have magically been meta

high wyvern
#

VDH could solo perma cc a pack for a good 15s i swear in DF haha

quasi pivot
lusty grotto
#

thats not why they were meta

merry sluice
#

feels real bad as a bdk on that fight

#

but then again, i also get to laugh when i do guild runs with my healer

#

i love amsing patty cake so i can terrify anyone im in vc with

#

ITS TECHNICALLY A DPS INCREASE TO NOT INTERRUPT IT

dusky canopy
#

Chaos brand was a nice bonus for the mage Aug in the group but the main reason VDH was meta is because they could completely solo CC a pull and remove the brain load on other party members

merry sluice
#

no one thing made vdh meta

high wyvern
#

Shit was OP af

merry sluice
#

if vdh had only one aspect of its kit it wouldn't have been meta
strong player for sure, but meta is overselling it

lusty grotto
#

vdh was meta for a lot of things, not just 1 thing

#

uncapped damage

#

chaos brand for the SP

dusky canopy
#

the main reason

#

Yes

lusty grotto
#

no

high wyvern
#

So whats the main reason

lusty grotto
#

stops dont matter as much when packs last long

#

there's no main reason

#

its a combination of them

oblique garnet
high wyvern
#

Cuz literally everyone said unless blizzard changes how mob casting work, VDH will be forever meta, which blizzard literally did

#

And then also nerf their sigils

lusty grotto
#

yes and now silence is even better

#

and yet

#

yet....

#

are people playing VDH?

dusky canopy
#

No because it can’t live anymore

lusty grotto
#

its defensiveness didnt change

dusky canopy
#

It’s CC did

merry sluice
#

if u wanna die

#

u go play prot paladin

#

that's the 'squishy tank'

vale karma
#

people are def playing VDH, there are some in top 30 keys even

lusty grotto
#

brew, its cc was for the party living, not the vdh itself

dusky canopy
#

True yes

high wyvern
#

Tanks were so OP in DF sadge

#

Legit cant die

#

So OP in fact healer were not needed in MDI keks

plush tendon
lusty grotto
plush tendon
#

but we'll see in a month of two

vale karma
plush tendon
#

I still think we are up for another class tuning

high wyvern
#

I think the meta tank will most likely be bears

lusty grotto
#

you guys are ackchuallying me so hard

#

vdh numbers dont compare to s3 and s4

plush tendon
#

well... VDH S3/S4 was oppressive

#

prob the most oppressive a tank has ever been

high wyvern
#

Been seeing all top tier group runnning: Bear - Res Shaman - DK - Mage - Aug

dusky canopy
#

Glad to see them nocked down a notch

#

Level the playing field

vale karma
#

I've seen some warrior + boomking as well @high wyvern

dusky canopy
#

Linc does high M+ as fury

#

So does Crit

lusty grotto
#

yes augusto thats what exaggerating means when i ask "are people playing VDH?" smh my head

dusky canopy
#

Just won’t be meta

tulip remnant
#

Burnout on VDH has to be a factor as well. Being allowed to ONLY play that sucks. Tanks can have fun on other specs now

lusty grotto
#

tanks were all fine in DF

#

people just hard focused on the meta

#

its not a now thing

#

vegan kept pushing as bear

#

sense and others kept pushing as prot

high wyvern
#

VDH was giga busted come on

lusty grotto
#

andy kept pushing as prot pally

vale karma
#

this season none of the tanks are busted, agree?

#

Warr, bear are good, but not insane or anything

high wyvern
#

I mean if ur an insane players anything can works, but theres a reason no one play anything but VDH for 1 year straight in MDI / TGP

lusty grotto
#

no tanks were busted in DF, VDH just fit better

#

yes because SP was broken and you need chaos brand

#

to buff them

tulip remnant
lusty grotto
#

picking VDH meant, you buff your godlike dps class, and you have all of the tools available to perform

#

when its not SP, it was mage, and vice versa

vale karma
#

mage dk aug is still meta tho

#

nothing changed

lusty grotto
#

dk wasnt meta in DF

fringe igloo
#

hi guys, is there anywhere here i could check better embellishments for m+?

vale karma
#

well yeh, I meant mage and aug I guess 😄

high wyvern
#

When hasnt Mage been meta keks

merry sluice
#

and i've yet to find a single good mage player

high wyvern
#

Cant remember a season where Mage wasnt meta or at least A tier

lusty grotto
#

BFA

dusky canopy
#

Believe it or not mage has a high skill cap

lusty grotto
#

until S4 i guess

dusky canopy
#

That’s why you rarely see one that performs like the ones on the rwf streams

high wyvern
#

Isnt arcane kinda tricky to play compare to other dps specs

urban portal
#

yea it is

#

arcane has been bad for a LONG time

#

dont mind it being good for 1 tier

high wyvern
#

Me as fury press buttons that lights up keks

lusty grotto
#

arcane is easier now though

merry sluice
#

i've yet to see a mage perform at a 'mid' level

vale karma
#

do you see a lot of arcanes? I've been mostly seeing frost

lusty grotto
#

easier than previous iterations at least

high wyvern
#

Frost is pretty easy tho

merry sluice
#

fotm specs ftw whooOOOO

dusky canopy
#

Yeah I’m a glowy button spec enjoyer myself

tulip remnant
dusky canopy
lusty grotto
#

i mean easy compared to its own iterations, not versus other mage specs

high wyvern
#

You cant watch Firedup POV and expect all mage to be like that

lusty grotto
#

frost has been the easiest one to play for a while

merry sluice
#

idek who the fuck firedup is

lusty grotto
#

out of the 3

merry sluice
#

i just except my dps to not tie me in dps, and/or fail to use cc/personals

plush tendon
merry sluice
#

which mages, as many flavour of the month classes, consistently fail to do

high wyvern
#

GOAT mage

plush tendon
#

imfiredup is liquid's mage

#

if you ever watch Max's stream during the race, youll watch his gameplay

#

he's so god damn clean

merry sluice
#

I just watch the pretty colours fly around until boss dies in race and go on with my day

high wyvern
#

This man has every mechanics and assignments in the world and still top dps somehow

merry sluice
#

maybe grab some crayons to munch on on the side

plush tendon
#

imfiredup is a joy to watch play

lusty grotto
#

and he has played arcane on some tiers where arcane was garbage

plush tendon
#

and I dont even play mage

high wyvern
#

Theres a clip of some insane plays in sepulche

#

But he doesnt really do M+

#

Only raid i think

plush tendon
#

he could M+ if he wanted to

#

I got a back piece for my myth track item

unreal oriole
#

you guys also experiencing a bug where if you shield charge in the middle of a normal charge, the shield charge only goes partly off?

lusty grotto
#

that happens if you have obstacles

unreal oriole
#

i get shield block from champions bulwark, but no rage from shield charge and no dmage

lusty grotto
#

or z-axis changes

unreal oriole
#

seems to happen every time for me unless i hold my shield charge till the end of the animation of charge

lusty grotto
#

most of us use it a melee range already so its not something we notice, but it has been talked about here since DF

#

we dont use shield charge to charge

#

or as a gap closer

unreal oriole
#

i see

lusty grotto
#

but yes, it happens

unreal oriole
#

it just seems like the best way to engage when you have 0 rage, cause charge itself is not enough to get shield block up

lusty grotto
#

like i mentioned, its been talked about in the past

tawdry dirge
#

any good demolish makro out ther

lusty grotto
#

ideally you want to avatar + charge, and thats enough for SB, if chain pulling you will have left over rage anyway

#

we just prio SC after damage buffs and debuffs are out

#

like avatar + demo

high wyvern
#

Really want to grab disrupting shout but i cant let go of bloodsurge sadge

so play whichever you need

What are you guys using as talents for this weeks affix? Wrecking?

lusty grotto

no

no changes to talents

but if you feel that you need it, you can drop sidearm for it i guess

tawdry dirge
#

in wanted to makro demolish with TR but it dosnt really work

lusty grotto
#

yes because both are GCDs

#

so it will never work

tawdry dirge
#

ah okay thanks for that info

#

so no good thing to macro it into or maybe into shout?

lusty grotto
#

no

tawdry dirge
#

😢

jagged gust
#

Especially because of the CDR you don't really want to macro it in to anything regardless of if its on a gcd or not

mighty valley
#

i'm not sure why you'd want to macro demolish into something else even if it was possible, don't want to be rooted in place by surprise

tawdry seal
#

anyone else having troubles in stonevault on skarmorak? affix give him reduced damage while shield phase, very hard to break

tribal wharf

we wiped to him on my +4 last night

but my group was brain dead anyways

tawdry seal
#

im on +9 now, frekin impossible

tribal wharf
#

wiped before first boss on tyranical only somehow, and left at least 1 mole hill alive each spawn on the boss

#

it could have been i didnt let healer have mana, but i high doubt that

#

since we had shaman, so i assume tremor totem (not a shaman main dunno if its in thier main tree), and we got feared, is how wiped

violet ginkgo
#

isn't generally stonevault... not a pleasant dungeon?

sweet summit
#

nah it's chill

clever chasm
#

what would be ideally to pick here? i already got the scarab trinket on LFR - and i crafted a shield ilvl 619.

is it worth to potentially waste that spark and pick the myth shield becuase its higher ilvl in the long end?

violet ginkgo
#

insta pick myth shield yeah

#

insta 639 if possible

clever chasm
#

yeah prob what im gonna do

soft tusk
#

can u make crafted gear into tier?

wintry badger
#

assistance here would be greatly appreciated 🙂 got sac and shard on hero track already for trinkets. should i switch to either one of those?

violet ginkgo
#

I don't think so prom, but I could be wrong

soft tusk
#

that Queen trinket

#

is OMEGA HUGE

violet ginkgo
violet ginkgo
#

in anycase both ring are bad and you don't really like queen mandate then take socketing.

soft tusk
#

That trink is DPS only..

wintry badger
#

saw it on wowhead, simmed it but queen only came out on top in single target obv but not by a large margin, rings were never picked, neither on single nor on multi target

wintry badger
soft tusk
#

exactly

#

take that trink brother

violet ginkgo
#

well there you go if you aim queen then take it

#

I mean you basically got what you want. Can always make it Sac+queen for single target and Sac+shard for multi

sleek current
#

Just quickly simming it in the correct slot as I suspect that may be it.

strong forum
#

this affix is not okay

#

that affix alone slowed down the key by like 20-30%

soft tusk
#

for the most part is just gets cleaved..

yeah uhuh

#

go and "just cleave" a 32mil HP mob which applies a dmg reduction to everything around you

soft tusk
#

EZ

urban lotus

Also the buff it gives is garbage

strong forum
#

that mob alone ate 813mil of our dmg by just existing in the key

I could use the tier shoulders to get my 4p bonus, replacing champion track shoulders.
But I get the feeling a hero track trinket is a better choice... now which one ?

remote dawn

O.o zhe affix is crazy shit ? :d

20% cdr on 20 seconds is 4 seconds of cdr
