you have to
you do not
really?
wait its the flying ones?
i thought it was the dudes
no
I am wrong
had it on cd as they mancers stun more than I have leap
flying dudes do the blood? I think?
No i thought it was the side short guys
and the charge thing
it's the little ones putting puddles that slows you
ya
Yup
that pull is demon
i just dont pull that in pugs lol
you can send it down mid
i have to pull final boss of threads out and then players have to avoid the balls to not get snared, right,
and also on boss 2 threads the twins, after the dashing, do i have to keep them together or they deal group dmg? so which would i be always moving to
2 questions not 1
i dont know it worked really fine in 10 / the first time i tried the pull / it went too easily
can do like this instead, and that's 100%
mm0 pulls
snared as in slowed? players have to avoid the balls just to not die anyway
if you mean the root, the root isnt optional
the way to do it though is move as a group, wait for balls to start moving -> move as group, repeat
Im guessing this is all just for % right
Pull 13 is impossible
cause the balls are baited to players so if you arent stacked they just go everywhere and its gigacringe
where do you get count then? before 2nd boss?
the pulls before 13 is what i do on 11 🤷♂️
pull and extra big scarab
works fine
sometimes i do the "until spider pull" but it is pretty much what i do
ya that looks good
I've been going top side on the circle
imo 3 and 4 are fine together tho
pugs
granted it was only a 9 so prob whatever, gonna try the other way
I do hate random people
those I think are fine with pug tho tbh
but you can get enough count just by doing lots of firest room trash
just not to spider with pugs
as an example
prefer to not stress randoms, ara is so overtimed
big true tbf
pull 8 is hot
ya that +10 timer is tight you know
gotta do what u gotta do

When people are under % on ara they usually just didnt clear the first boss platform i find, in pugs at least
i love the pull 7 is so weird compared to the next
Agaihn im not saying thats the optimal route but thats a way to do it
saving cds
trust me
you want cds for pull 8
gotta need them with the add reducing damage around him just before the boss
DMG MORE
that add with 50% reduced damage is so troll if the affix spawn
you just sit there wailling on them
I dont think they deal group damage? UNless ive completely missed that somehow - but you want to move together for cleave ofc. One is always melee so you just move to the ranged one
A lot of that fight is cringe though and they just run around or stay apart ofc, nothing you can do
the last boss of CoT what i understood how you do it : everyone stack on tank and back when balls comes
yup
do you ever sepparate the last two adds in COT?
you need to be stacked for weave (the root) anyways and ideally for adds
everyone moves out before tankbuster is all, then back in
Always
always for me too
i'm afraid of the root at the same time of stomp
and if you have not depleted yet it means you destroyed the dungeon so you have time
(for now at least)
i'm the one slowing the pace in my mind the more i reach the end when i see the key is in +2 timing
I had a group which was very adamant that that tankbuster is purely tank responsibility, like you have to leap out to avoid mesing their dps and then charge back
we died 😦
dunno, I am bad
I just run back
i don't leap too
the boss is casting he doesn't follow you
people just move out before hand, its easy
what is easier
i just "walk" and come back
I meeeean, tank privellege?
dude they have to run out like 5 yards, its not that bad
and the dps get to keep pumping
i think both are just fine
I suppose thats true, but thats how most pug groups ive had do it
could just be my XP
always tank go out for that kinda thing imo, so the dps can keep pumping
I am afraid I will cleap the healer or someone accidentally when moving 😄
well dont forget to reping to stack bc pugs sometimes dont reposition themselves
*clip
Ya i mean i agree its better its just one of those things where i kept it simple
I mean if your healer is stood behind you he's bricked
That's optimal yes
But if you don't dodge one shots as a dps, you are dum dum
right beside ur name is advice!!!
pwned!!!
sorry i'm mentally disabled
pls dont bully me
Either way this is kind of irrelevant, the only thing that matters is what youre actual pug dps are gonna actually do
and who knows is the answer :)
idk imo that isn't simpler
I just ran out the first time I ever did it
ya im not arguing im just telling you my experience
I do the same with the knock on Dawnbreaker
obviously its better for tank to move out numerically
with dawnbreaker it's diffierent tho
trust noone 🕵️
I always position at 1 end of the boss and dps on the other
they're both big circles around you?
i only bully browner named people
How is it different ?
so it's 1 step
There have been times where I move to get away from dps and they follow me
Do not underestimate the zug zug of pugs
^

but the boss
stands still
playing around pugs != whats numerically better or makes more sense
if the dps follow you, they're fried
at least they give you a chance to use those cr you bought at the AH

360 cr
So, whats the route on SV? Go right for ingots and then dont take cart and run back??
that fights really rough for pugs but really cool, i hope they keep making fights like that
this is what i do
I did that last time ya, felt okay imo
you can take the cart if you have some kind of cc I think
ya if you soothe 1 guy you can cart etc etc, it really doesnt matter much though
or leap -> meld -> cart i think if you hate your team
And i guess that ingot is a one time use
this can be a valid "in a key but need to reply to a text" strategy tbf
lol
i do that (only did 10 SV yet)
just pull 5 depends on patrol
ya same as me more or less (other than exact chains)
and how you get to 12 is "well see which one pug pull"
you do 11 together like that?
i get clapped by fracture too fast i find
i do the vers buff pack afterwards seperately
Okej and isnt it better to get there as 2nd boss ? U always go shamrok first ?
i face tank mass stun and heroic leap when i feel i need to go, you only need to keep aggro, but you can do separate aswell it's a 10
i may stand at around 7-10 stacks and leave
if it is early
there is the exact same number of "dmg amp debuff mobs" than pull 10
hmm true
wait you can skip the 3 mobs after vers buff? I've been pulling them all this time lol
no
it's just depends if pug pull the two guys i dont mark any of the two pack because it depends of pug doing shit
more what i would do next time i do it
i just kick and corner, didn't tried to los, is it good ?
not really, I had dps complain that htere is not enough space to dodge in the corner
(i dont do SV a lot) it's what i did last time
You can easily group pull 14 and 15 btw
fuck i wanted to show where i go by going in dungeon in normal but forgot you have to kill everything
1 totem cast and it's gg tho, do you need this risk? 😄
maybe i'm not a SV enjoyer, but those little shits dashing are pug killers
It’s not hard. Pull 14 does nothing.
-15 sec every 5 seconds
when i do route i keep in my mind i'm in pug
like : "no they will not kick those necrotic bolts"
"no they will not bait those charges in the wall" and "no they will not watch out behind them if the charge is on them"
can you walk between 11 and 12 without invis?
Btw does the safe spot still work in sv ?
i read smth about that being patched
yes this is really my only consideration atm
Too scared to try it myself xd
no as i said i dont mark either the two guys or the three guys pack bc it depends if someone body pulls
ah I missed that thanks. I'd probably just drag the 3 in to pull 13 then.
that's what i do when it is "no bodypulls"
thoughts on Spear vs dragons roar while still being mountain thane for m+
Go spear
if ur playing with the right talents, roar is significantly worse
100% patched btw
just watching Yoda do 14 mists with it
are you doing 14 mists?
I mean thats just proving talents dont mean much and u need a good group with u to do high content
"why dont we play X" "its worse" "but #1 warrior is doing it" "ignore that you arent the same"
there might be some logic to it, but it's probably specific to their group comp, key level and just timing in general
thats what i was kinda seeing. regardless of his comp/key level if theres some logic to it that this community might understand
but why doesnt this guy want it, nobody gives an actual reason here ever they just say "this is better"
and why is he using it? when would we want to use it?
Like is thunderous roar enemy capped?
At the risk of sounding stupid. When is damage reduction (e.g. demo shout) calculated for dots? e.g. if I demo shout and it's a 20 second Dot. Does the damage uptick for the last 12 seconds?
every tick
Okay if it's a 20 sec dot. And I demo shout the mob who gave it to me halfway through, the ticks lower?
Its dynamic if u take damage whike its on the mob its reduced once its gone its not
the mob is dealing that damage to you (technically speaking), demo shout reduces damage dealt to you by that mob, so yes, the tick will lower as long as demo shout is on the mob
^
if demo shout falls off itll tick normally again
Yeah, almost nothing snapshots damage on cast any more
Oh okay thank you I just wasn't sure if the demo shout considers a mob casting the dot to be the "source" or if the dot itself is the "source" once applied.
you can more or less think of demo shout as just "take 20% less dmg"
As far as I'm aware... The only snapshotting going on these days is Feral.
ye thanks that clarifies
ah and ya, the mob is still the "source", just to say it explicitly
what are the best embelishment for only dungs for this season?
Myth tier hands
The main legitimate reason to rock T Roar would be for snap aggro reasons, since it's available more often than spear. That can enable them to pull faster if they're going through packs at a specific cadence depending on their pull sizes and the like
How do you deal with NW 2nd boss add grouping? I feel like I’m playing whack-a-mole with aggro and kicks there. How do you deal with them in low IQ pugs? I wanna do more, but I feel like I should be doing less.
It can also just be for ease of use, since if you're pulling bigger, it can be harder to hit everything with spear, so it's worse, but it's working better
stand in corner
If you tank boss hard in the front right corner (as you walk up stairs) the adds will spawn on fewer sides of the boss, makes it a bit easier
There's also likely other reasons that are not really legitimate, as you don't have to play the class you're aying the absolute best to time world first keys; you just need to time the key, which is generally done via pulling very big, managing stops on mobs, and not getting one shot to unavoidable mechs
Verbally advise them that they need to help by kicking a mage and CC'ing the ranger. It's really the only thing I find that helps and if it doesn't... Well... Nothing to it but, trying again.
absolutely this, tight in that corner near where the spear is
they clump up in a very managable space
also unironically this
Alright Ill press my butt even closer next time. I really envy DKs for the grip.
I mean, 1 dk is enough. Kick one mage yourself, move them to ranger and then aggresivly ping dk to grip the last mage
I really think grips should be given to more classes if they're going to insist on hard near requiring grips in things like Myth raid, though
It's like the old lightbulb question. Two are going to soil their pants, and only the third will grab a lightbulb at all
I mean... If they don't deal with the mage, you can just throw a stormbolt at it, at the last second and make everyone gawk at your awesomeness.
you still have to kill it tho?
Just keep stunning it.
keep in mind you can knock it etc too, its not like grip is the only option to group them up
druid sneeze ring etc etc
I understand it's a key part of DK fantasy, but it seems like it feels real bad for group to have to keep recomp'ing to put DKs in for grips alone. I only bring it up since they were toying with the idea of grips on War and the like
like i definitely dont dcare that mch if i have dk for nw
memes aside
(i care if i have frost dk much more cause of amz and cause theyre omega juiced)
Yeah, my gripe is more of an overall game function scope; like Myth Brood is very rough without grips
ya myth brood just sucks though what can i say
I mean, dk is just the best dps class atm, the do insane damage, they never die + grip
plus cr
what else do you need
*for m+
ya in a world where not dying is king
Movement?
you need the not die king (dk)
They'll say a raid buff, but grip is a raid buff tbh
again though grip is less important than their survivability, damage, and amz
theyre not really meta just cssause of grip in m+
dont get me wrong its very very strong but
that hp increase from rsham is also great on them
Grips are really just raid buff tier benefits in terms of comping, so they're strong when they're relevant, kinda useless if not
its a lil of litteraly everything
its just their skills though isnt it
(although im sure theres a lot of shit fotm dks atm of course)
With the count requirements this patch... They're probably doing us a favour to be honest. When I learn that this double pull is deadly... It's not my fault for once, for experimenting. 😂
i depleted dawn yesterday ccause dk magically pulled stuff outside the church while we were fighting mini...
Oh well, I don't need a DK to tell me that one. Hahaha
was first time for me :(
they're meta because they do crazy dps and dont die
^ ok
y, that's what I meant. WIth their skill by accident
Breath doesnt give af about walls
crafting a shield is a good idea right
Yes
Ya i just mean their skills are kinda clowny and go through walls haha
were on the same page
is it troll to macro shield block into some ability?
feels like i spam it anyway, "i probaly do it wrong" 😄
why are you spamming shield block? Oo
its pretty troll ngl
bind ip/sb to scroll up/down
you should track the duration of the buff and only reuse it when it ends
then worst case scenario you just play with scroll wheel while looking out window
or at least close to end
ctrl + mouse
ctrl-zoom
Oh my goodness
I mean, how often do you zoom in dungeons?
i use shift zoom actually
only for dawnbreaker ship
no
it stacks up to 24 seconds
let me do that yarn
so back to final boss of threads, before i go to run it again. so you guys are saying, i let the balls spawn in, i dont move her at all, and then when it turns to purple swirls, i move around the room away from them or some shit
No chance. 😂
balls spawn -> i move boss off to side -> ball move swirlies spawn -> i move boss more off to side
repeat for whole fight
idk IP on mouse down is really nice
I just walk in a circle 100% of a time
since you have to press it so much
and its just dps healers job not to get hit at that point and move with me with boss
except when orbs are flying in me as a tank
Little dudes run around, they get hit, drop puddles
Keep boss away from puddles
Murder cast comes out, go into a puddle
Interrupt add after murder cast
hell ya it is
Q is the GOAT
scroll binds highly underrated imo
are you talking about ara kara, no?
Wait, fuck
i think he is but its good people are learning that fight
Yeah wrong dungo
wait what
I just remembered yogi having issues with ara before
my arakaras are pretty chill now actually, but first week was hell
Henlo, last thing to remember is stuns will break the root on the bloods on last boss. Can kick the one on you as mentioned though to get out after her spooky succ.
people dying left and right to suck
well, anyways, i got the group to final boss threads, and she deleted us 3 times in a row
and then someone left
I just heroic leap out of the suck in Ara-Kara. It's pretty favourable timing
I don't really see the point? you don't gain any uptime and risk messing up@sleek current
threads = 4 bosses ara = 3 bosses
I gain 3 seconds of uptime. What do you mean? 😂
The adds that walk around and drop blood always path in the same way. You can place yourself to where you can cleave them pretty well with tclap, and just pull boss away from the blood spawns before her succ.
I've literally never had a successful leap out; it completely negates the leap velocity. It's not like the pull on Ansurek or anything
you can leap to puddle slightly earlier
You need to jump when you see 1 second remaining on the cast.
This^
We're brothers in illiteracy
Threads is easy as fuck on last boss, have a def for her kamehameha, avoid balls, and cleave or avatar the root
Adds are easily dealt with
the only thing that scares me about ara kara is the spider boss eats a spider and enrages or whatever casts "summon more mobs"
leap on a bloodworker
i've read about the ability lots, but never see it
My experience... Playing strictly with my mythic raid guys... There isn't always a puddle available. 😂 It's easier if I just don't take a spot and leap out... I've not fucked it up yet.
it's a healer check, if the healer is cooked key is gone 😦
You can spell reflect every root of hers
leap on a bloodworker
I haven't had issues with the mechanic proper, just with trying to leap cheese it
The umbral weave ability
Im not sure which is better. Felt like weave was safer but if you have avatar up can clear it that way and save SR for splice
Avatar is just going to be when it's up, it's up.
what about do i have keep boss 2 together after dash sequence
or they wipe the group?
not sure
why not keep them together
right, but im trying to see if thats i HAVE to, keep them together
Keep who together? I think I've missed something
2nd boss
it increases your group dps
COT
mostly it'd just be a simple cleave for more dps boss dies faster
it is just what you said
Oh, thanks. Yeah, keep them together.
There is a weird bug with that boss currently. If you kill them during the purple explosion, whether you're in it or not... You get slammed.
okay, well, i cant think of the examples but i know there are bosses you cant have them together or the wipe the party and raid
is there anything special you can do for the overlap of the tankbuster and the purple circle? Do you premove from it or something
on 2nd boss
sorry if im just trippin, but i cant find that i should upgrade a weapon with crest. even tho it would give me big pumper dps upgrade it hink. i have shield ilvl619 crafted and i could craft weapon 639 now. how comes the weapon isnt listed in the guide? are the defence items that much better?!
it helps your group with cleaves stacking and stuff
Shield 636 first.
Weapon next.
even tho my weapons are like ilvl 600 and shield is 616?
stack strategies can be really strong in general
Yeah, shield is significantly more impactful.
but, thats how i do video games
the hard way the wrong way
i do it until i do it right
Both by virtue of it having main stat, haste et cetera. It won't be as impactful damage wise as a weapon would be but, you're going to need that surviviability right now.
copy that thanks sir
and i can put embelishment onto weapon ttoo right. or safe it for the 2x defence thing
that gives me crit or versa if im above 80%
just switched from fury to prot, any good way for me to get decent wep/shield quick?
Yeah, no stress there but, I'd recommend putting the embellishment on Wrist or Waist instead. Just avoids you moving it later if you get a huge weapon drop.
I have mine on Shield and Wrist currently and don't intend to change that at the moment
What addon is it that shows this mythic+ timer for +2/+3 like this?
angry keystones
tthanks got it. so that defence emeblishments are better then one for weapon i guess @sleek current
You can't do damage if you're dead is the motto basically. Haha
these are not defensive embelishments
but makes sence
stats give you dps
okey got it
more stats more dps
i like the spiritual succesor to gottagofast, gottagofaster
the one i said does this
Warp Deplete is also nice
so it shows the actual timer needed and a true timer (to 100th and 1000th of a second)
MythicPlusTimer... Simple, out of the way and elegant.
you need to be completely logged in and not DC to have true timer
why would you need timer to 100th and 1000th of a second?)
i like racing games, but its just, i dunno it is like a metronome basically
I dislike installing random weakauras
MythicPlusTimer is an addon. Does that persuade you? It's got 4.4mil downloads.
I have no idea about mythicplustimer
its not totally nessecary, im sure a true timer could be helpful to MDI teams
its probably alright I was responding to yogi
but, ya, there are PLENTY of options for keystone addons
astral key annouces the next key you have after completing a key
The green number at the bottom is the value of the current pull.
find the one you like
I need an addons that lets me customize my debuffs
Elegant. Slick and buttery smooth.
what stats do i craft on my shield? crit/haste?
basically I'm fine with defult debuffs just wish I sould blackleast keystone active debufff
I frustratingly use SUF. It's got a lot of customisability but, it's not very user friendly.
I like suf but it has weird restrictions
Like I can't have debuff icon sizes big enough of have timer text undernerath them
I just don't want to use elvui anymore
Can't stomach game freezing and chewing fps in raid
I just got for the ol' rotate. I haven't seen a number on a debuff in years.
I moved default debuff window to the left of my frame
when yall run a key - what is typical shield block / IP uptime
if I could blacklist keystone debuff it would be okay enough for me
Mine looks like this. Looking at it right now, I don't think it very asthetically pleasing but, it's worked for a long time and I don't want to dive back into SUF. 😂
100% of the time you get hit and ip uptime doesnt matter
its a rage dump
The haste debuff at the start of siege oof
ok cool ty - new to tanking so idk what metrics to look at
new to tanking since all the fury nerfs thoughts on these stats i only tank M+
are you pushing 12+?
Me want more haste, you want more haste. We all want more haste. Unga bunga.
if not stats aren't that important but yours are good
You guys running bitter immunity for any of the current dungeons some of the poisons on the tb truck a bit
basically you want haste and crit/vers as supplementary, but mastery isnt bad
no, never
ok word ty
You know, I considered that but... I can only really accept losing Rumbling Earth for it and I like pressing shockwave.
healers should just dispel you
It's my healers problem. That's how Blizzard want things.
lol
Yeah! Hahahaha
which poisons are you talking about
I think there is some at start of siege
The Venom in SOB is pretty lethal, that's all I can think of right now.
Bitter imun wont help you there tho
Yeaaah.
There are 2-3 packs with those poisions and they insta reaply it
you can reflect some of it
Yeah it stacks a fair bit and my ip just gets fucked
The other mob I can think of is SOB as well actually. The one with the two swords.
you can parry singing steel im pretty sure, thats why crit is 👍
Op af
Beautiful
So fuck the vers flask get some crit flask
Ill take it whole but tip is fine for start xoxo
My stats right now. 😂

bleeds up? wall / demo
why not haste or alch chaos?
My stats are hilarious that's why
jesus christ that haste sheesh are u using into the fray ?
ilvl > haste > all
I got over 40% haste with fray
I have 35% unbuffed
I had a 10 mists today and midrun I noticed I'm running some abomination of execute raid build for colossus on thane
was alright
if you play ITF at 35, you better know what youre doing
cause gaps will get you killed in high keys
SB gaps
im at 31, i still play HR
I know how to unga bunga
Bolster ez clap fill them gaps
im 616 ilvl atm i still have a neck,back,boots,ring 610 ilvl recommendations on which one to prioritize first on upgrading ?
well you shouldnt play boslter without bsv
just fyi
champs bulwark + sc is enough
Only run on dungeons where spell block not as useful
theres better talents to take instead then, than bolster when you already have >100% SB uptime
i dont know why you would factor in spell block tbh
I kinda want to try the build with bolster, spell block and disrupting and dropping enduring alacrity
Spell block can suck my nuts
But enduring feels so good
thats a dogshit build if you drop alacrity
no alacrity in MY tww s1 :monkaS:
armor that goes into AP that goes into armor
If you want disrupting drop bloodsurge but, honestly... I'm not feeling it as necessary as I did in season 3 of DF or whenever I did 3.1k rating.
Mists?
none
The yoda build? It feels pretty good tbh
Do not do that. Anima Slice will ruin your day
^
You can't reflect every cast my man
Just dodge it 4head
Woah clue me in what’s the issue with it
Be nice nimchip
I got no survivability issues in 10s
I mean to be fair enduring is a great talent
People are entitled to play how they wanna play, it's their sub
Just cant drop much else
indeed Nano indeed
whats wrong with insigate that we dont take it?
truly brewpilled
There are other talents that perform better
stops facing mob before anima slash
I have always been the voice of reason in this chat
I was thinking of dropping booming voice for it
I'd be seriously doing the research on that mate. Booming Voice is massive
Booming so good tho
yeah the research is asking here
You're not going to get an answer that'll satisfy you unfortunately. You're going to need to seriously do the numbers yourself.
Gotcha gotcha so its quite close
sir i was reading a bit of your conversattion. can you explain wha bsv is and when to no take bolster?
I'm not aware that they're remotely close but, I haven't done the numbers. I've just trusted Nom here.
Its battle scar veteran its your cheat death
You should never trust anyone you haven't punched or drank with
Not trusting my mother is kind of sad
it could be the closest thing to it that's not a cheat, if anything
Well yeh i guess tru
Just punch her once
Bolster is only good because it gives you shield block uptime, if you have heavy repercussions, shield charge, and champions bulwark you already have well over 100% sheild block uptime
Or get drunk with her
it just gives you nothing
big true
(no the LS cd doesnt matter)
nah
I only drink energy drinks they have vitamins
thanks for explaining!
I had asked here before about Ignore pain, they mentioned only to use it when about to cap on rage. I am now finding that when ignore pain is not up this xpac my dmg intake spikes rapidly. I figured I needed more rage to compensate.
Bolsters good if you play into the fray, but you probably shouldnt be doing that unless you have very high haste OR know exactly what youre doing OR preferably both those things
have fun losing 108k dps
I played BDK for most of last xpac, but decided to start maining pwar this xpac. so tryna learn the ins and outs
oof thats alot
I'm pretty sure you're only supposed to do that once you have build up ignore Pain
Basically don't spam IP
use ip when you have 70 rage
no bro i dont have any of this. i looked up this yoda dude and ran with his build. but its completly different to the wowhead one so im fully confused. i think im running too defensive shit
so you don't rage starve yourself or overcap
I posted a log review earlier this morning for that very reason.
ok ill take a look
It changes when youre with a coordinated team, doing very cutting edge keys, can play] around it, have a certain comp to support it etc etc
im just doing +10 max
Thank you
and he could be wrong in the end too, its just what hes finding is working it seems
or more likely to do +9 to farm gear
yoda build is bad for any level of key
can you guys suggest me a build then. or just wowhead one
Hey be nice
its just mathematically defensively and offensively worse
I'm nice it's just the trush
truth holy fuck i gotta sleep
I just don't want to walk the dog
89% SB uptime looks decent
12.4 Shield Slam APM = red flag #1, needs to be 15+
Wasting a lot of rage 339 SS + 100 TB + 236 from SC alone = 1204 total rage wasted, hit your IP to burn regardless of IP's status
My favorite dorki clip was the one in shadowlands when he went into m+ as bdk did default big pull didn't press any defensive or death strike died and started complaining that dk is shit
Shield slam > Thunder clap?
no necrotic bolt spell blocks
yes pretty much always
0 of them to be honest
😮
...
💀
that's a cook

Oof
NEITHER????
so both of our strongest magic mitigations arent taken?
chad energy
I'm even running Fight Through the Flames... There is no earth in which I'm not taking MDR.
technically even before then because shield wall + sr, but there's no sr
Bros cooking instant ramen on a grill 💀💀💀🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂
And that's wild
I had figured shield block, demoralizing shout was probably good enough at these lower key levels
shield wall*
i guess?
but it doesnt help you if youre not getting used to proper play
its doing more damage than anything
Let's phrase it this way; every major tank hitting ability can be mitigated by spell block, and spell block can mitigate up to 100% damage
What a weird decision to make
shield reflect is a scaleable dps cooldown
also spell reflecting feels sick as hell
okay a actually have to sleep
Serious advice. Go to WoWhead and copy the Mountain Thane Mythic+ build and just use it. Spam shield slam and thunderclap, press avatar every time it's available, focus on Shield Block uptime and press IP probably every 3 seconds.
And when do I click on rend?
Please. 😂
can confirm, did that, got 2800 score
SR is an insane dps increase sometime
we had 15+ SS APM in DF, it should be higher than that now with Burst of Power
not even talking about the defensive side of it
so im being nice when i say it should be 15+
what is burst of power? that a hero talent?
SR dps increase is fake news because it's not attributed to you in logs
Ur welcome? So when do I click rend
on CD
ah that one
And lightning strikes basically means Thunder Blast
Hahahaha. Mate, actually made my night. For those... Wondering... You don't. Just press Thunderclap.
dont forget to slam on CD
@lusty grotto Other than those few major things is there anything else you noticed?
those are pretty major
Hahahaha. ❤️
ww slam rend
like huge
the holy trinity of the prot war
yeah I know they are, just asking if you noticed anything else.
Aaaaah mate. I forgot we actually have access to slam
Ww is huge damage on adds
18 mins section, you casted 10 walls
wall is up every what? 50s?
45ish?
with proper rage use (and proper shield slamming)
is shield wall like Vampiric blood where I should be using it on cd?
What do you guys think of the 2 wall talents
I recommended talenting into Piercing Howl to my raid leader on Broodtwiter and he just laughed... Why'd he do that?
He's a dick
I knew he was a villian!
You want to get as many uses as possible, while having it up for the important high damage moments
The latter is more important to clearing, tbh, but proper play does both
Noted
A good starter way to handle SW is to SW at the start of every pack, since it should be up roughly every pack, and then see how to adjust to have it for tank busters you don't have spell block for
usually i use it a the begining of a pack
Sometimes I use it and moonwalk right into a pack with my back
To establish dominance
Since the start of a pack is when the most damage is coming in
youre talented into Pain and Gain 
no intervene hmm
Rest in peace Pain and Gain. You were loved.
but yeah thats minor anyway
Mate, this is cracking me up
storm bolts
Does bro have the storm bolt talent?
i let my poor ret get subujated by first boss threads +3
oof
off the pull
yeah storm bolts cause i didn want intervene
Acceptable. He shouldn't have played ret. It's not FOTM.
it looks like i tried to taunt off him but it was too late
Yo, taunt isn't even on my bars... I should be using that? 😮
Is intervene that good in M+? It doesnt seem to be as good as Sac on ppal right? Kinda niche?
those are really big weird cooks
taunt is objectively our worst button
btw, this might sound dumb, but im never sure on when to use spell block, is it really just a thing to "know each mobs and their abilities"
deals no damage
No it does no DMG and has bad dimishing returns
and makes us the target
or im overthinking it
Knew it. Solid advice, thanks man.
No worries mate
you can use it on any fixate, any physical ranged attack, as long as youre 10 yards apart from whoever you intervene, plus the shield adds up and is nice
Always glad to give good advice
so for example on that NW
you can fixate adds on 1st boss
(can also reflect tech on the frontal)
fixate archers, blood splatter, fixates on trash on 2nd floor
they can just stand still
and take no damage
Honestly not having spell reflect is so foreign to me
obviously you need people NOT running away from fixates, so they need to know about it
if they run, they outrun your 10 yards
So, I'm not running Avatar so I can have Thunderous Roar and Spear at the same time but, I seem to have lost 200k DPS. What am I doing wrong?
Spell reflecting something that kills a mob makes me pitch my tent so hard
It's the best feeling ever
Im sure thats one of those things people get used too at high keys yeah?
man i'm watching this dorki guide since so many people have been saying weird shit after watching it and like. he says none of that. seems like a totally fine guide
(:
Meme break: Seriously Seoul. Grab the build from WoWHead and run it. Listen to the crafted advice within the guide and I promise you, you're not going to have as many issues.
do people just hear what they want to hear
its not dorki
hes fine
its not kira either
hes fine
Yeah I did grab it from wowhead and changed afew nodes around
its just 1 streamer
not awhole lot
someone was in here earlier saying "the dorki guide told me not to press revenge"
Frankly I know what's best anyway so I'm just doing what I think is right when I read guides
"Ravager? I don't think so I'd rather have something that's garbage."
BSV all the way
i told ai to make song about protection warrior and both sound like something you would hear in doom game, electric guitar and drums rock and rol metal shit lol
The best warrior song was already made like 40 years ago
"All of the recorded fights for this boss, difficulty, size and region are private."
Have I done something wrong when trying to find out where other prot warriors are greeding so much extra damage on Ansurek.
It's up my street actually
@lusty grotto thx btw for the log review
Yo, where the fuck are these 1mil logs coming from for Ansurek Heroic.
Add padding?
Mental
The website is called WarcraftLogs or WCL for short
That's where the logs come from
So obvious now that you've said it. Thanks again man.
No worries mate
Mans getting absolutely fat demolishes though. Jesus.
Look at this greedy goblin
Demolish probs has nice cd alignment for that fight i guess
Sigma male grindset
Mobs can't hurt you if you kill them
So true
I once wanted a very good guldan hc log as a healer
And after i checked wcl i saw that top guldan healer was a solo rdruid with like 12 boomkins and lotta rets
Dude spent the whole fight innervated
That's why he was on the top
And you weren't
That used mana with its passive procs
It does look though that demolish lines up pretty well
I went colossus the other week in normal reclear and it was really fun to play. Waiting on that fat demolish feels good, it appeases my unga bunga
Do I have shit trinkets... Yes. Did I do any mechanics other than taunt? No. Did I slap fat stacks of demolish... I most certainly did.
so if 40% haste lets you talent into ITF, if you do a haste flask instead of chaos and hit 40% can you swap to it?
or does that 40% inclade the average increase of the random haste increase of chaos flask
It's 40% unbuffed
flask enchant gear change only equals 1-2% haste on average
So no flask at all
i have also heard 35%
but i mean if your at 38% and you do haste flask instead of chaos
but ????
wouldnt that let you hit the break point and the extra haste would be overall better?
itf in raid because healers
Just drink haste flask and vibe
It depends on how much you need to patch block uptime
yea i know for m+
The main reason you don't use ITF is because of the block uptime, and different dungeons have different needs
its just a question of losing the small amount of extra secondary overall and going straight haste flask+ITF
i assume it works if your close enough to 40%
turns out, basic melee hurts
when they hit you basic melee for, 1.1m
or even juat 8 500ks, hurts, need block or we die
ITF forever
Can you taunt during liquify or does it change who eats the cast unless it fires before taunt?
just got heroic queen ring
paid a dude an undisclosed amount
i cannot say how much
how much is too much u guys think
heroic boe ring on ah go for a lot more than 50k tho
bro this might actually be hands down the worst fucking season of m+ i've seen in pugs. its a joke
500k apb?
Id say more than 1M
Yes but two things A. It's the start of the season B. Those rings aren't like...hard bis
It would be worth a lot. It’s Uber bis for everyone
2.5M
You wouldn’t get get it off me for less then a mil
i paid the dude 500k.
I was bang on
i think its fine
It is
Ehhhh for a hard bis ring for evreyone I think that's p fair
I'm just too poor to bid on stuff
hey any1 what embelishments we are finally going for 2x vers or crit or asendance with enhance?
It's gotten to the point if I see 4/5 the same guild I know I'm likely in for the worst run of my life.
Is the ring off Asnurek good for prot?
It's free damage
So why not
Because our secondary stats are all pretty good for us usually every rare piece is just free effect
ty
what would a prot warriors Crit /Haste cap be?
Currently, none
BIS gear uses as much haste and crit as possible
You get enough of other stats from forced stats from tier iirc, but I'd have to check Nome's list again
isnt vers good for living?
Just for confirmation if you taunt during ansurek's liquify before cast finishes, who's gonna eat the liquify? Will she swap target or will she go after you once she finishes the cast on tank1?
Every other stat also good for living
@lusty grotto have u seen how kira plays
wtf lmao
also these prot warriors are griefing high keys with these talents that do z dps
losing on timer
every single run i see a new way for dps to brick the key
Bricking a key for innocent reasons is okay by me it just happens but my god when the DPS who's died 15 times that run starts being a tank critic because you missed timer by 2 min lol
just watched dps knock the fixarte adds directly into me
same dps who died 5 times ina row on gb
the tank that had initial aggro will get the liquify. you can taunt mid cast of liquify and move the boss then you will take feast
My demolish is strong 
Okay thanks for confirming I've been playing like that's not the case, defs easier knowing that lol
yeah It makes the movement a lot smoother if I say so too
cuz youre not just standing around waiting to taunt
padding overall with discharged anima
next

Break out to herrrrrroo promptly after
yo in my spell reflect essentials, it's saying to reflect the dot in the trash at the end of mists, is that just because they have that weird aiming behavior where they cast on somebody while loking at you or is there some intervene tech to be done here?
get owned
is it bad to take bolster over instigate?
Any content you'd take one, you'd never take the other.
i have a 610 detachable fang. just found a 610 skarmorak shard off sv. almost 3k dps loss but does the mastery surv make up for it?
is bolster that bad? every guide has instigator instead
Fangs better single target and shard would be better multi targ/mythic +
How did u sim that?
Does anyone have a guide or tips on how to use rallying cry? Does it make my healers life harder if used on low hp? Is it a panic button or use as much as possible etc?
i jsut did a quick sim gear compare
But what setting ? Time targets etc , thats what matters most
is instigator good?
just default. but i only m+ so makes sense i use it over fang anyway
BOYS. I got my first portal of the season! I feel like a true gamer.
got 610 meat hook and detach today too. using sacbrood on other slot tho
I see my health decreasing even with ignore pain active? Is this related to dots?
Which Enchant you recommend for M+: Radiant Power or Authority of the Depts?
It'll make the healers life easier if anything as it provides more buffer. Try to use it proactively when there's raid dam or party dam coming out.
Also don't forget to let the healer know on discord that you're using it because you don't trust his abilities to heal
IP's only a partial absorb; it only takes part of the incoming damage
Xal’atath’s Bargain now affects the cooldowns of additional spells.
Ravager fixed finaly?
It wasnt affecting avatar as well?
Pretty interesting affix with the mass 50% cd reduction
Can actually just thunder clap every gcd and shield slam inbetween during avatar
question: is zekvir doable on ?? in prot spec?
Yep think some guys ran it on 600 ilvl and below
I know, but that was before the spell reflect nerf
no, after
Pretty sure you just need to level and curio out your brann and have him dps, he pumps
Sense has one at like 54x ilvl, though he did it by unequipping stuff
bran as dps? which curio?
Yea, IDK that was my problem too -- I got it to about 50% this morning, first time trying it. Did a couple attempts and I was killing the stupid web add at about the same speed that Jakey was in his video at 538 il
so it's pretty obvious my lvl 37 bran is the issue
haven't looked into it more yet
mine is almost lvl 54
so like are you guys using itf or hr in 10s for example these days
youre not allowed to own brann, thats banned.
So Sense is the only pwar in the world to (public) log Brood. Am i fucked or what
ur raid might be
Grips are very useful in that fight, so most tanks swap to BDK for it iirc
But fight is definitely existable as a prot war
its not reasonably killable 2-tanking it as pwarr
you're inting your guild by doing that
does spellblock work against liquify in Ansurek? or just normal block works for it?
Spellblock works on liquify
if you want to play pwarr you need to have someone else in your guild bring bdk or vdh
and 3 tank
thats insane
do you have to do a tank swap for the caster boss in silken court?
or how do you properly tank that
cause i've just been swapping on piercing
honestly it doesnt really matter
usually other tanks that arent pwarr are better at it
but i usually just let bdk cotank hold it
ah ok. so there are some points that a tank may have "both"
and that's perfectly normal
it's just a matter of communication
if one person is struggling then take it off of them
boss does basically nothing to tanks regardless tho
🤷♂️
Yeah as BDK I’ve just been sitting in it all raid
Co tank is a bear so it’s like the perfect combo
you can take the caster as a warrior and spell reflect the poison bolt
thats abt it
Talk with your dps wars to chain taunt reflects on her
Joke but i can imagine that working in a funny good way in a coord group lol
they'll be too busy zug zuging the melee boss when he gets webbed
but yeah, just pop spell reflect on cooldown and you get a few million dps from it
when the caster mob is up and u have aggro that is.
I fucking love BSV
I got angel + BSV + last stand and spiked 6M hps for 5sec 
H ansurek, got both liquefy and Feast
Ez 100 heal parse
BSV is awesome. I heal pot up to full when it procs
