It grants you like 30% critblock chance and it lines up with every spear and Ravager

#

So it's a good dmg boost during cds

#

And just solid cuz it has 3k strength perma

#

Whereas mandate only has 1.2k crit

inner wren
#

ok but mandate looks cooler

strong forum
#

Not a fan of mandate in keys as tank cuz we don't have ways to buff it like other hero talents

tribal wharf
#

i could just run siege for crit haste boots

strong forum
#

As arms I can get like 14mik crits with it

tribal wharf
#

but fuck siegeg

strong forum
#

As tank it's barely 8mil crits

bleak breach
#

I don’t think there’s any necessary WA. I just run a IP tracker
shield bloc and spell block tracker
Seeing red/outburst
sudden death and my colossus stacks

tribal wharf
#

u barely do any dmg with reflect shadowclaw if u run SV this week, compared to last week

strong forum
#

It tracks all your necessary buffs + unique tracking of outburst and basically plays the class for you if you pay attention to the glows and stack trackers

inner wren
#

i'm just waiting for an orange name to tell me i can go colossus in peace

tribal wharf
#

onyl 3.57m reflects on those

strong forum
#

Can safely play colossus in mists and ara ara

tribal wharf
#

its like 4.9 with fort

strong forum
#

Cuz those keys do 0 dmg to us

#

So you can turbo blast as Colossus

strong forum
#

Siege and GB you wanna stay away from colossus

#

Cuz there's a good chunk of unblockable dmg

tribal wharf
#

i do infact want to stay away from siege

#

you are correct

strong forum
#

So you want the extra rage and Dr that thane provides

bleak breach
#

Siege is east

#

DPS just die all the time and ruin timers

tribal wharf
#

ya, but i already been through siege in the past

bleak breach
#

Yeah same

#

GB was much nicer after the nerf

tribal wharf
#

i dont care to run it, cant be assed

#

not more than is nessecary

bleak breach
#

So do you go for KSM or anything?

inner wren
#

tbh most dungeons r pretty chill now

#

cant really think of one that makes me groan

bleak breach
#

Gb

inner wren
#

it was that last hallway that pissed me off and they giga nerfed it

tribal wharf
#

ara kara final boss

#

thats always a nightmare

bleak breach
#

That’s unpleasant on tyrannical

#

First boss is normally your stop gap for ara Kara though. If your dps is too low there goes your timer.

tribal wharf
#

necrotic wake has a long timer

#

torn between if i like short or long timers better

strong forum
#

NW is just shit

sonic rock
#

Yuh

#

And the dps shit themselves every 2nd pull

strong forum
#

But all dungeons are kinda boring to tank already

#

They were fun early on but now it's just

sonic rock
#

I miss Tazavesh 2 sometimes, that shit was snappy

strong forum
#

Maybe I need to do higher keys but nothing does any dmg

#

But also still literally 16ilvl behind max so why would I bother pushing

#

That's just wasted time

shadow sequoia
#

noob question, is it normal for shield dura to always going down even without deaths ?

strong forum
#

Yes

#

Blocking attacks causes durability damage

#

Cuz somehow that's a fun mechanic?

shadow sequoia
#

xD

sonic rock
#

tbh dura as a mechanic makes no sense in todays wow

shadow sequoia
#

2 times I had my shield break, and I was so confused because they were 0 death runs xD

inner wren
#

it's the op tax

sonic rock
#

like it was used as a gold sink so that economy wasnt turbo inflated

strong forum
#

Same as 3% parry of raidbosses doesn't need to exist

#

But it still does

sonic rock
#

but nowadays who cares echo spent 6k mil gold in this rwf, thats more gold than even existed in the game from classic to wotlk in like 6 years of everyone playing

south zealot
#

i forgot to repair before a lower kara and my shield broke on the bigass pull above attunemen

#

i lived bc it was like a 14 or some shit

fun times

south zealot
#

yes

sonic rock
#

I wanna cry from that name

south zealot
#

great dungeon i liked it

sonic rock
#

SL s4 karazhan gives me chills still today, hated higher with my soul

south zealot
#

lower kara was wayyyyyyyyyy too hard the first 2 weeks

#

the first boss just wasnt possible to do on any relevant keystones without feign death abusing

sonic rock
#

You mean moroes?

#

Or one of the operas?

frigid spire
#

is there a point to use D stance?

south zealot
#

was just impossible if you didnt feign death to remove one of the bosses

#

fight would take like 7 minutes, but possible with only 1 alive

merry sluice

i was fucking stunned

speechless

we ended with 10 seconds left

bc he kept dying and bringing someone downw ith him

#

by some fucking MIRACLE. that is the ONE PULL he did not die on

#

I DONT EVNE KNOW

pallid quiver

It was practiced

#

He knew what to do

Is it worth chasing the special gem bonus? Like using 1 gem of each type? Or just use haste crit gems?

I don't get why people go right when they get to the stairs?

#

If you go left you kill all the trash in the way of the minecart

#

Perfect % that way too

#

Unless ppl are doing a skip idk about but everyone and their mother has true sight in modern dungeons

merry sluice
#

if u go right u get the blacksmith/warrior buff

#

which is 10 mins of 10% verse

#

which is pretty big

icy flax
#

Well color me ignorant

robust urchin
#

Where the fuck are they

tribal wharf
#

warrior blacksmith buff by going right???

#

i am both of these things

icy flax

20% VERS BOOM

and every single time i go left at stairs if its arakar

Arakar DEEZ NUTS

Ara Kara wasn't part of this ?

you are serious i can gget free buff start of ara by just go right

or the rock boss?

merry sluice
#

tribal wharf
#

i go to rock first,

#

rock is a pretty simple boss if nobody dies

robust urchin
tribal wharf
#

yeah i didnt know there is an anvil i can go get in that dungeon

bleak breach
tribal wharf
#

the anvil looking unassuming to me at first glance

#

the anvil should be large and stand out

merry sluice
#

ara-kara tailors can get a st stun for 13 seconds (it does work on the minibosses, which is arguably the only applicable use for it..)

CoT has enginer/priests/rogues poking atr the statue hologram thingies

I'll be disappointed if you don't know about druid/nelf/tauren's in mists

tribal wharf
#

some visual way of displaying its full of power

bleak breach
#

Isn’t there a bar at the start somewhere too? I read there’s 2 bars you can grab so you can get the buff twice

merry sluice
#

you get tiny white sparkles

#

take it or leave it

tribal wharf
#

i say change the anvil model itself add some fog and im happy

#

cuz id just run past if i never knew it existed

merry sluice
#

you would?

fluid widget
#

How much haste do i need to drop Heavy Reprecussions in raid?

merry sluice
#

it sounds like you have been

tribal wharf
#

i have been doin that so far

#

yes

merry sluice
#

you can run itf in raid since dropping shield block won't kill you

#

you don't need the near 100% uptime that dungeons impose on you since you arent tanking the whole time

fluid widget
#

awesome thank you

tribal wharf
#

also, healers mostly, can put external DR or heal you up

#

more healers in a raid

#

so its very hard to compare a raid to a key

robust urchin
#

If you're talking about the vines

merry sluice
#

and herbalist

the amount of mists i've run w/ a druid or nelf or tauren who can obviosly do the profession but dont know about the shrooms kills my soul

#

they'll do the vines at the start and call it a day

Dumb assholes

#

what are best embellishments ?

tribal wharf
#

thats what i mean, is those things need a BIG glow or a note in the dungeon journal or something

merry sluice
tribal wharf
#

i do not sadly

robust urchin
#

Nobody cares

tribal wharf
#

i think its a sign of things to come when it is a key

#

either completely forgotten or used heavliy

merry sluice
#

dude doing IPA is gonna be miserbale in ekys lol

#

noone is gonna cc or kill the adds

#

and will\

????

#

when they die with the boss sitting on a fat ass shield

#

im calling it

rigth now

rigid edge
#

They will leave and go happily deplete another key

#

Not their problem

merry sluice

oh god

#

and the bee boss

#

meadery si gonna be a rough pug key

#

gl getting people to ram bees into the barrels deadge

tribal wharf
#

first room will be hell on fort

merry sluice
#

you mean the dps special of

#

"time to pull the whole fucking room?"

tribal wharf
#

and the boss

merry sluice
#

before mythics started, and we were heroic spamming

#

even then

#

i was constantly soloing the trash

tribal wharf
#

cuz i have a feeling ppl will tank him at the bar, and then pollute the bar

merry sluice
#

bc someone would pull everything

tribal wharf
#

making beer hard to move cuz dmg on ground

#

saw this on heroics week

merry sluice
#

meadery is jsut gonna be ass to pug all around tbh

#

bc im now also remembering those big mobs that charge and spit out adds when they hit the wall

tribal wharf
#

the barrel dudes toward IPA are pug destroyers

merry sluice
#

everyone is gonna aim those 50 miles off into narnia

#

then refuse to bring them towards the tank

upbeat jetty
#

any thoughts why dawnthread embelishment is better then ascendance? literally every other class uses ascendance?

tribal wharf
#

ya, when it comes to getting a player to pick up and use some item, can be one of the trickiest thinggs

merry sluice
#

sim it if you think ascendance will be better for your character

but at max ilvl, having an embellished weapon is a debuff on its own that detracts from the value of ascendance since crafted items have a lower max ilvl cap

upbeat jetty
#

yea, i get the ilvl diff but purely from an embelishment standpoint of view

tribal wharf
#

ever since that video i just sent a minute ago, i have brought a few vendor food items for mana, shitty rejuv potions, will grab mage foods and trade to healer start of key if i can now

upbeat jetty
#

but simming would be my best bet, yea thought so

tribal wharf
#

but this healer i was with didnt seem to need alot of that, just 1 time

merry sluice
#

Third boss CoT a 9 in the first week right?

#

Dps soaks a couple of the no no orbs and has a heal absorb

#

Resto shaman proceeds to leave him at half hp with the absorb for over half a minute

#

He eventually died to the aoe pulse

tribal wharf
#

brain dead or wanted him dead

#

is my assumption

robust urchin
#

Just use a heal pot

merry sluice
#

Oh he did

#

The first time

#

It happened twice 🙂

#

We never saw the last boss

#

Healer had like sub 400k overall by the end

robust urchin
#

Probably was the party's fault

#

Bellular said shaman heals are op as fuck

#

so is zekvir possible like, unless you have godly rng? i've tried as all 3 specs and i can't get both kicks on him, can't live through multiple enfeebles, if i had a way to removes slows on myself, sure... but??? what am i supposed to do to deal with mechanics?

neon elk
#

Avatar removes slows @next pasture

#

Also stone form works, if u happen to be dwarf

jagged gust
robust urchin
#

You basically have to keep avatar for purging

jagged gust
#

yeah it's considered a slow, so unfortunately that's our only self dispel

merry sluice
#

I haven’t bothered going into zek on warrior

#

Si idk the good warrior tricks

#

But most important thing to remember is that zek is not a race

Bro my pain when I did it on BDK

I had to go march if darkness and wraith walk to avoid that shit deadge

Wish u was in my warrior

But I have no desire to kill him again bc I think that fight was utter dog shit design. I got the achievement im never looking at his dopy ass again

thats how i did it anyway

#

i see, having to save dps cooldowns for the slow is obnoxious lol.

oak ivy
#

Yeah it's not fun but it's doable. and the title goes hard

#

Took me like 2 hours of using a veeeery bastardized talent setup (every survivability talent fury has access to including +10%stam in warrior tree) lost a looooot of pulls to the portals and his frontal

Ive lost bunch of them cuz i got stuck on those braziers or wtf they are around the stairs..

Do Colossus PTR Buffs affect the Mountain Thane vs Colossus calculus for Prot? Didn't see any comment on that on the Update page.

calm hearth
#

Anyone can help me in deciding what to craft as a prot warrior and what Embellishments ?

neon elk
#

U got wep shield ? If no then do that

calm hearth
#

i got a hc wep and a normal shield

neon elk
#

Then it depends on content u do but most common is wrist/belt with embelish, unless u had any of those on mythic

#

And u crafting mythic or hc?

calm hearth
#

but mostly my content i play is m+ i would say

neon elk
#

What ilvl y crafting ?

#

619 or 636 ?

calm hearth
#

636

neon elk
#

Then if u have enough crests for 2 craft i personaly will do both wep and shield

#

Especialy shield since u have normal one thats a huge deff upgrade

#

And wep+shield is way more than any embelish, and on top of that u can do embelish on shield also

tawdry herald
#

skarmorak shard has a ton of mastery value, im assuming its listed as an A-tier trinket for us because it lines up with every ravager+spear and we get attack power from mastery?

#

is that implemented correctly in raidbots?

neon elk
tawdry herald
#

is there a rough equivalency for attack power -> damage?

curious how big 9% attack power is

No idea bro ngl, but its one of better ones and its easily simmable if u wanna compare it

im very often outhealing and outdps people in my group as a prot war

its terrible, i dont have much time this season and im honestly considering to stop cuz i cant see myself going through this pain just to get to +10

It's usually a healer doing ~4-500k overall, and 1-2 DPS hovering around 500k

Yeah I got covid at the start of season so I'm incredibly behind in io and ilvl

where do people find teamates in this game

Highest damage intake and not even the highest heals

This might be a thing of not selecting the right people

i selected a 1K5 611ilv mage

who ends up having less dps then me

tulip remnant
#

Arcane?

opal forum
#

im 600

#

yes

jagged gust
#

615 ilvl hunter with 2.1k io, did 400k less DPS than first place

tulip remnant
#

You need to pull larger packs for mages to pop off. They are a CD spec

jagged gust
#

The right people to invite are doing keys 5 levels higher right now lol

tulip remnant
#

io means shit most of the time

#

People got 2k day 1 in depleted keys

How big are you guys pulling?

opal forum
#

standard

#

im still outdpsing that mage on the first pull with BL

#

but again, its super low key

even if the dps is rock bottom low

#

it dosent matter

but they constantly die to the most stupid things

I got nothing, I tanked a GB 4 with a 587 r sham. Bro was cookin, we wiped once on some random pull and that was it.

thats why im trying to find mates

Worrying about finding the perfect group isn’t going to get you anywhere.

im not trying to find the perfect group

#

im trying to find 1 or 2 guy that understand basic knowledge of dungeons

tulip remnant
#

Are you taking the first applicants?

opal forum
#

nope

#

i dont think i need a perfect group for some +4/+7

tulip remnant
#

Kinda hard to tell without logs, is the healer having to dedicate too much time to keep you alive?

opal forum
#

the healer do 300k hps

#

no, my hp bar is basically not moving

#

my original question was if you guys have tip to find teamates, like a discord or a forum

tulip remnant
#

I just get randos or people in my guild that aren’t toxic

opal forum
#

how did you find ur guild?

#

im not trying to be in a raid roster

so im not sure how to still find a decent one

tulip remnant

Just find one you like hanging out in.

Very hard to find a guild of sociable people in wow

im not actually skipping them

The best in the world are only managing +14, and only 6 of those have been completed by anyone, anywhere.

#

Adding the two affixes together at 10 feels like a... kinda shitty design choice. Their M+ design this season has me wanting Sanguine back.

neon elk
#

Yea but 14s compared to 10s are day and night rn

teal laurel
#

What's the consensus on things like this, would it be smarter to use a 606 trinket like silken or a pure ilvl upgrade. E.g.

neon elk
#

Still , if u are doing 10s now u are like best 10% or even better..

raw parcel
#

Yeah, Blizz decided to hit normies with a brick wall at 10, and the uber elite with a brick wall at 12. Or I'm guessing that +20% is a brick wall, I'm not good enough to actually try it out myself.

teal laurel
#

The easier 10s aren't that bad.

But I imagine chewing glass than Nec 11 or something

Guys what is Your experience with new xalathath affix? Is it worth losing one talent point in Endurance Training and Bounding stride to reach wrecking throw or shattering throw for extra shield/absorb dmg?

lusty grotto
#

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

can the fucking siege ring drop

#

2.5 weeks of non stop siege

#

holy shit

lusty grotto
#

shattering throw does nothing to it, its not an immunity

#

you mean wrecking

#

and no its not worth

neon elk
#

I know your feeling , no ring no boots sadge

lusty grotto
#

no ring, no SV cloak

#

and im still missing a fucking trinket

#

no dawnbreaker ring either

#

its ridiculous

neon elk
#

Luckily i got that ring rather early, and one of my 2 maps gave me crit haste cloak

#

But idk how i got desires trinkets before random boots or ring..

lusty grotto
#

i cant really complain, i have mandate

#

but im rocking either a mercurial egg or a corrosive organ as 2nd trinket

#

so i guess im in farm hell for 4 different dungeons

#

and ive been non-stop doing siege every chance i get

royal chasm
#

what should I be crafting first? Weapon or shield?

Damn now u reminded me i still need belt from batol

Is organ that good or u use it cuz its mythic ?

With the second to last boss group, we had druid kept flaming and dying lol. Then he left

What can I do alone against boss when they all keep dying lol

If you wiped 6 times to one boss you're the guy who was there all 6 times

#

It's just objective is all

I'm not blaming u some dps are subhuman

But all u can do is see what u did

This was one the 9 last night

dBm already tells you position change, and the guy casts his nova.

You can not not see it.

I even had rouge premade tell me "oh I thought it would just hurt a bit" no brother it's insta death lol

I put even marker down to show the route

Your pfp is incredible

Just note emblishments do like jack all so u can kinda make what you like. But ascension drops a lot in mythic plus and takes time to build again so having perma stat just better in general

icy flax

What A beast

right, i guess no weapon embelishment is good enough to go for it in m+ rather have stats

can i double vesra lining ?

Yes

If so, just jump off cliffs until under 80%

If you hover over it, it shows the breakdown

U arent pressing like a madman

He is

But his tb casts are low

Same with tc

I don't know how to read logs esp on mobile

So hes missing a tone of rage gen

I have a hero track locket of broken barbute, and I also just got a "emergency stop keychain". All the sites say its my bis. but when I sim its a 0.2% loss. Should I take use it anyways for the secondary haste mastery over crit haste

icy flax
shy frost
#

I focus on shield slam over tb. Should it be otherwise?

jagged pier
#

No

shy frost
#

CLAP THAT THING

icy flax
#

TB is beeg

jagged pier
#

Ss is always prio

#

But u are just not oressing buttons on the gcd

pallid quiver
icy flax
#

You ss even if you have a TB to press??

jagged pier
#

If u have 2 stacks

#

No

#

Otherwise yes

pallid quiver
icy flax
#

I didn't know ss proccing it could get you to 2 stacks

jagged pier
#

Honestly u send it on ss mostly for rage anyways

reef hazel
#

If you've 2 stacks ss & 2 stacks 2tb?

shy frost
#

Gotcha. my CPM is 61. Should be >70 ?

pallid quiver
#

TB's not too far behind it in rage anymore, so it's nice to send unless you're in mega bad time zone

jagged pier
#

I mean i just looked at nomes logs he still spends 80% on ss shruge

#

Or did

icy flax
#

Outburst TB is one of the best button presses of the expansion

#

He's prob playing with fdks who have already killed the pack

jagged pier
reef hazel
#

Thanks

pallid quiver
#

Yeah, you won't be in situations where you're sending outburst on TB often, anyhow, and it's not like sending it in AOE is bad, either

jagged pier

No but rage gen is rage gen and thats what we are about

I gotta gear the pwar man chatting

Booya. Thanks!

jagged pier
#

Have a look at talents i run colossus as well

shy frost
#

oh dang. how is that working out vs thane?

pallid quiver
#

It does more damage, but survives not as good

#

It has less in built DR, and you get less rage to cycle

icy flax
#

The less rage part hurts

#

Are the buffs feeling

#

Helping

pallid quiver
#

Actually, Jakey, do you know off the top of your head if you get the increased crit damage from spear if a boss or something that can't be tethered walks out of the AOE? I know the change works for if the enemies are in spear, so I wager they walk out, no more damage, but I've never actually checked how it works

jagged pier
#

Im oretty sure they do its just if they in the spear when it lands

#

I dont really pay attention

#

Just send spear and dps

pallid quiver
#

I haven't either

#

It just kinda came into my head today while swinging

#

people kept dying around me so i just started thinkin'

#

and then i realized that i didn't know

sweet summit
#

it's a debuff on the enemy no? it's not like dnd or

pallid quiver
#

i've

never checked, i just press buttons

icy flax
#

I've seen a debuff on normal mobs

round cliff
#

if i try to ONLY execute when >70 rage AND not neglect spenders AND not overcap i feel like im almost never getting to press execute

#

cuz its like "im at 80 rage with spenders off cd, i need to press ignore pain"

#

"whoops now im at 60 rage i guess im pressing revenge"

#

what do

pallid quiver
#

I mean, if you're at 60, you can freely press revenge

#

Er, execute

round cliff
#

i thought the robot said only at 70+

icy flax
#

Why wouldn't you hit it at 60 in that context

pallid quiver
#

I unno what sims are going for, but

round cliff
#

idk!

#

thats why im asking

pallid quiver
#

If you hit execute at 60,

icy flax
#

Fam just hit buttons

pallid quiver
#

You still have 20 rage to press a second execute or revenge

round cliff
#

in my head anything above 60 makes sense cuz u can revenge after if no reset

#

wait is revenge or 20 rage execute better

pallid quiver
#

and you'd press execute at 20 rage instead of revenge since it does more damage

round cliff
#

then why tf am i worried about revenge... no comprendo

pallid quiver
#

Execute damage scales with the rage you spend on it, so

round cliff
#

either i was lied to or the robot knows smth i dont

pallid quiver
#

Though your overall goal is to avoid overcapping

#

And rage starving

icy flax
#

Tank sims

pallid quiver
#

If you achieve those, you're fine

#

i mean, we sim a lot for damage

#

It's the only sims we do

#

I don't know what the APL looks like, but you can spitball what Nome and the like are doing off their casts in logs

round cliff
#

probably avoidable situation but
what do i do if the boss autos my ignore pain away before a tank buster and my defensives are on cd from other tank busters

icy flax
#

Hit button

round cliff
#

do i just accept taking 50%

#

and heal it after

#

or do i need to bank rage

#

for IP before buster

pallid quiver
#

You've likely made grave mistakes if that's the case with every encounter I can think of off the top of my head

#

Shield Wall's on like a 50s CD now

round cliff
#

it happened on the duo in stonevault

pallid quiver
#

SR is still only 20s

icy flax
#

That ability isn't real

pallid quiver
#

Spell Block lasts 30 seconds

icy flax
#

That killed u? U doin 12s?

round cliff
#

didnt KILL me

#

but i dont like taking half my hp in dmg

#

feels preventable

icy flax
#

That's fair

#

Spell reflect

#

Love the DR

round cliff
#

isnt the hit physical

icy flax
#

Igneous Hammer sounds fire based

#

But could be

round cliff
#

ur right it is fire damage

icy flax
#

Lfg me

round cliff
#

1st boss chunked me once in the same situation tho and thats SURELY physical

#

IP dropped, no defensives, chunked

icy flax
#

Yes but then did your healer know the mechanics

round cliff
#

fam idk if i know the mechanics

#

much less the healer

icy flax
#

I don't want to type a paragraph

pallid quiver
#

Seismic Smash is, in fact, physical, but the healer gives you a 50% DR

icy flax
#

U do it

pallid quiver
#

They dispell you right before the tank buster goes off

#

So, theoretically, you only need to worry about not getting mega clapped by the first smash

#

And then manage the dot after, which isn't particularly bad

round cliff
#

didnt even know the fight had a dot gg

#

can u tell im a good tank

#

the extent of my situational awareness is leaping away when i start taking 400% more dmg from ignoring stacking debuffs

unkempt hazel
#

I mean better than me

#

I'd just die and go "what happened"

broken beacon
#

hello ppl . i checked some prot warrs and seems they are shifiting to use colossus but i wonder is is it wise to pick it in pug keys and around +8 to +10? or its better to stick to thane?

graceful kite
#

die, type "this class is dogshit", send it

jagged pier
#

If your pugging tho i would stay thane honestly

#

The bad players are even getting to 10s now so its a shambles

pallid quiver
#

i'm too bad to even time 9s

jagged pier
#

I mean your are better than a lot of ppl i queued with yestersay

#

Me constantly asking why im told damage on the affix

pallid quiver
#

how positive are you, since i spent 3 hours wiping against hero ansurek today

#

smh, jakey has too much faith in me

jagged pier
#

I spent 2 hours wiping again her last week

#

So i have faith

pallid quiver
#

Semi-related note, it's hilarious seeing liquefy do literally nothing because you crit blocked with spell block up

#

so you take like, 4-5% HP at best

teal laurel
#

Off the top of head, does anyone have a good tank pov of heroic ansurek where the content creator actually illustrates what he's doing?

pallid quiver
#

You mean walks you through everything they're hitting/pressing?

#

Because if so, can't say so, but Sense has a video up

#

The fight is mostly determined by the DPS/Heals to be completely honest

teal laurel
#

Uh I guess? I get wicked impostor syndrome when we do heroic ansurek and I just like the sanity check LOL

#

We have such a weird conflict in the comms during that raid because half the raid wants the boss moved A LOT and half of them want the boss moved minimally during liquify

graceful kite
#

fight is a joke on a tank

pallid quiver
#

Realistically, you just need enough space for mechs to be done

graceful kite
#

just move her away after green puddles spawn

pallid quiver
#

Some people think that means moving her 150 yards away

teal laurel
jagged pier
graceful kite
#

just moved if green was around

pallid quiver
#

The more notable thing is the web puddles, since those grow

graceful kite
#

oh yeah

#

hardest part of the fight

#

third nove and webs overlap

pallid quiver
#

And froth puddles come right after the webs after all but one cast of roots iirc

graceful kite
#

don't go inside nova when webs are spawning

teal laurel
#

I guess it's just me being weird because I often feel like if I positioned better people would die less to pools but I'm kinda aware alot of that is people just derping lol

pallid quiver
pallid quiver
#

I'm still mad

teal laurel
#

lmao

#

Yeah I know but it's hard to shake the "I'm driving the bus so if it crashes it's my fault" feel tanking gives me

#

(watches as DPS break the windows and jump out)

pallid quiver
#

You should change that mentality around for raid

#

The DPS and Heals are driving the bus.

round cliff
#

ive only intervened someone once

pallid quiver
#

You're just along for the ride as long as you press defensives and taunt.

round cliff
#

am i supposed to be being a good person

pallid quiver
#

It keeps your damage up on Ansurek intermission

#

Because you can stay in longer

#

You do that when leap is on CD, since you can leap right after pull goes off to cancel the pull

#

So you can stay in melee 100% of the time

round cliff
#

ic

#

but not for its actual saving ppl use

teal laurel
#

It's kinda interesting tho because we'll typically 1 shot all the way to queen on heroic (maybe the odd silken mishap) but then she stonewalls us. Cant even get her past intermission xD

pallid quiver
#

You can definitely use it on a melee you have around if they're not forcibly sacrificing uptime and staying 75 yards away,

#

since it's just oGCD and doesn't move you if they're close enough

pallid quiver
teal laurel
#

Filling a mythic roster is a challenge for us otherwise we'd probably hit up bosses 1-3 on mythic first
