I'm looking at Kira running 15k vers, Yoda running similar and you just kind of reconsider life

bleak breach
#

I kinda just do what I need to for vault

jagged pier
#

Nope

faint maple
#

If you need redraft smth that has embellishment, and remove it:)

oh ok 😄

jagged pier

They go to io or murlokio and copy from there

#

Aka 7.5% DR

#

That's less than 1 keylevel worth

#

It does fuckall

#

Don't think so hard about it

unkempt hazel
bleak breach
#

Done a 10 each week for vault and that’s it so far. I guess if I started spamming them I’d start timing them. All just about doing enough of it

jagged pier
#

Ppl ovrr think everything and no think about their play which is were survivbility comes from

hearty stump
#

7.5 DR sounds.. pretty big especially with the +12 affix?

gritty eagle
#

i usually thought the most popular builds on subcreation etc was usually the wowhead ones

hearty stump

#

You lose DR in other places

#

In other forms

zealous goblet
#

like parry

strong forum
#

It's not 7.5% vs nothing

bleak breach
#

Gain that amount of crit and you probably gain just as much from Larry

#

Parry ffs

Love larry

#

hazed myself in a 10 SoB forgetting to put defensive stance on the whole key but we timed yolo 😎 gettin back into the swing of things

strong forum
#

Again, beyond haste stats do not have a relevant impact on your survival

#

It's just a bandwagon and lack of understanding that people just stack vers as 2nd stat

zealous goblet
#

mastery gives an increase to the amount blocked, crit gives parry chance, vers dr, and haste gives shield block cooldown reduction. also more rage gen. all secondaries give survivability

strong forum
#

"it was always considered good so surely it's good"

#

Nothing more

hearty stump
#

But the parry chance miss is valid naturally

sick sentinel
#

they added affixes in 12s?

strong forum
#

12s aren't that much harder on the tank

#

It's moreso that shit just lives that much longer

hearty stump
#

Aren't they? an extra 20% damage?

reef hazel
#

Yo anyone had weird behaviour with groupfinder? I'm applying to keys as tank but group leads are saying I'm showing up as applying for DPS

inland raft
#

20% of 0 is still 0

strong forum

hearty stump
#

We're mitigating though, not nullifying?

strong forum
#

It's the dps that are at a way higher chance of dying

hearty stump
#

And a percentage of it.

strong forum
#

From 1shots

#

Not tanks

#

Tanks are always the last to die in keys

#

Unless you fucked up

hearty stump
#

So TL;DR run crit over vers regardless of the key level

strong forum
#

If a tank dies, it's your own fault

opal forum
#

prot war dies to mistake only

frosty mango
#

I can only see this logic being sound if you also control all the other variables like having a 100% consistent group and a mass amount of playtime. Otherwise it’s a pointless fallacy, improve yourself relevant to your current reality not someone else’s

jagged pier
#

Well ive died cause i ran round a corner to pukl trash and no one followed kekW

That's it

Nothing more nothing less

40% vers or get out

Yogi u were doing so well

100% vers or bust

only real tanks have 40% vers

hearty stump

40% vers literally takes 50k if not more

simply get it

i got like, uhhh 8 or 6% vers

i had like, 2 good peices of haste mastery gear, wanted to use them tiny bit, have the versa ones for pug braines

I'm convinced that whenever one of us dies in a key it's because a different warrior somewhere decided to read a book and use too much of our shared braincell.

zealous goblet
#

out of curiosity

#

who here plays with the personal resource plate

#

like the vanilla one

cursive jacinth
#

is thunderclap good enough by itself for agro when i charge a pack or should i open with revenge instead obn mythic + trash

zealous goblet
#

if you're rounding up packs, then yes

#

thunder clap and keep moving, throw some revenges in if you feel like you missed a few

#

but afterwards you'll want to throw a spear down or some shit. do your normal opener

dusty flare
zealous goblet
#

as soon as the dps see you stop moving they gonna think its pumping time

#

luckily thane has a stronger thunderclap

frosty mango

i don't fault them

pugging keys is just body language and guesswork

do all your dps know where to fly during dawnbreaker?

Pings are the single biggest thing wow has added in years cmv

#

Using pings effectively in pugs is a game changer

#

They’re basically like one of those backpacks with a leash you put on your kid

zealous goblet
#

you think you slick but you were right there in the highschool bathroom getting swirlied while i was getting wedgied by the other bully

tribal wharf
#

well its "show tell thing not say many words"

zealous goblet
#

no prot warrior is actually tough

tribal wharf
#

is what pings is

frosty mango
#

It divorces you from the need to stop to type to communicate and helps keep gameplay fluid

#

It’s a great innovation and after having it, you miss it in other games

blazing condor
#

luckily most multiplayer games have pings as well

tribal wharf
#

i only ever use the main basic ping exclusively

unkempt hazel
#

not my tank standing there mid run typing out some flame

blazing condor
#

ping on middle mouse button is kinda imba

tribal wharf
#

one of those pings if its not gotta be an I NEED HELP BADLY one

#

many scenarios in a key, snare or etc

frosty mango
#

I also have it on the rear left top button on my g502

#

I’m a ping addict

Even the ping of shame, when someone scuffs so badly you have to give them the danger ping

Real gamers curl their thumb or pinky finger underneath their palm and smash it against the side of the alt/ctrl/shift key and then wonder why their arthritis is awful

sharp gale

I don’t use crtl I’m not a great finger man

Biggest thing I did was get an mmo mouse though. 12 side buttons, creative use of middle mouse click. And a macro button next to left click is 14 extra buttons alone before alt/ctrl/shift mods

muted arch
#

How many crafted pieces are recommended?

merry sluice
#

As few as possible, only your embellished. Crafted have lower ilvl cap than max ilvl gear. But seeing as no one can be max ilvl now, use crafted to fill slots that are lagging behind

lusty grotto
#

all of them

#

wdym we cant max ilvl

bronze wraith
#

Hey, is bolster decent on queen for heal absorb? My healers are struggling to get throught the shield and I am pipping last stand and victory rush since they do % geals

Let alone all upgraded

we have 3 sparks

not 2

Like I open and can upgrade right away to 639

lusty grotto
#

yeah im keeping 90

#

gilded

#

at all times

#

im past runed so

#

only gilded needed

muted arch
#

Do we get one of each embellishment?

lusty grotto
#

whatever sims best

muted arch
#

Is there a max of 2?

lusty grotto
#

for embelishments, yes

#

for crafted items? no

muted arch
#

Ahhh okay

lusty grotto
#

so 2 crafted with embelishments, and 1 crafted without

muted arch
#

So you can only wear 2 embellished items

merry sluice
#

Correct

muted arch
#

Was trying to figure out why 2 pieces is recommended lol

faint maple
lusty grotto
#

it should say so on the tooltip of an embelished items

#

something like Embelished (2)

muted arch
#

Its cheaper to upgrade mythic gear guilded wise

merry sluice
#

Recommended isn’t too important rn. Crafted is still a good stop-gap for slots that are lagging behind.

2 is recommended bc of the embellished cap, and once you’re max ilvl crafted gear will be lower ilvl than a maxed myth track.

That’s the perfect ideal setup. But getting more crafted if you can’t get a slot to drop isn’t gonna suddenly kill you

lusty grotto
#

sure, if you have the myth piece

muted arch
#

So best bet is to craft 2x 636 for embelishments and boost mythic gear to 639 ya?

lusty grotto
#

not if you have hero gear

muted arch
#

Well ya you cant boost hero gear to 639 lol

sharp gale
lusty grotto
#

so you have possible crafted slots

Next week is spark week ?

you shouldnt bank gilded for a discount

thats just putting yourself at the mercy of RNG

#

and if you dont mythic raid, that's even worse

sharp gale
#

I kept my third spark just to maybe craft a 2 hand for off spec if I don’t loot in vault

lusty grotto
#

cause you only get one myth item a week via vault

muted arch
#

I mean if u do mythic raid ofc

lusty grotto
#

do you?

muted arch
#

Do I personally? Yes

lusty grotto
#

pugs or guild?

Guild

sharp gale
#

Mythic raid = spend everything

should be good then

I’m playing fury for the raid, so all my sparks for now in the 2h and wrists to buff embellishment:)

from those groups you can make friends and you can use that

iirc they post keys for discord people to join and thats how you can get to know people and stuff

I never joined a m+ team but I guess there may be a thing on wowprogress/raider.io too

If you take multiple packs just thunderclap/revenge each step before regroup

Can always send a revenge imo as well as Thane if there's a struggle

lusty grotto

but yes challenging/disrupting is there to be used

#

you should be using revenge in the opener as thane anyway

#

for deep wounds

#

its not a hard science, just explaining it seems strange to me

raven knoll
#

is the enchant for mainhand also to sim? since they top warriors take differnt ones.

lusty grotto

do damage, get threat, use aoe taunt if all else fails

Tbh half the time I just assume it's like, Tank has no CDs, bursty fury warrior has all his CDs: whyamidead.jpeg

so like this is what happens for me, charge-> clap 1 group, shield charge 2nd group, leap uhh revenge 3rd and maybe throw a 4th. Then pallybro has wings and all my nameplates gone red T_T

sharp gale
molten gorge
#

Ya ofc, I'm not saying I have this problem

But I understand how it happens

lusty grotto
#

pally has wings... uhh

#

idk seems like a bad pally

#

are they just sending wake of ashes on one pack

#

cause otherwise how are they popping wings

#

wrong talents, wrong prio

#

bad pally

sharp gale
#

They don’t have random procs?

lusty grotto
#

wake of ashes gives you wings with proper talents

#

the procs come from holy power spenders

#

if they are popping wings, without pressing wake of ashes, they are doing some cooked up shitty build that didnt get past DF

tribal wharf
#

i have some big gripes with mass taunt, then again, its mass taunt, so i wont bitch and complain

#

fuck that

lusty grotto
#

unless they just send whatever holy power they had left from the last pack

#

which is whatever

tribal wharf
#

i usually call it big taunt, even though little taunt is really the big taunt, extra threat n such

dusky canopy
muted arch
#

how do you sim for best embelishment?

tribal wharf
#

im pretty sure big taunt doesnt add extra threat to all the targets you are on

#

just forces them to attack you

potent tree
#

Only times I’ve had any aggro issue was trying to group packs and an enhance just had back to back tempered hitting for 6mil or some shit

tribal wharf
#

and for not very long, shorter than taunt duration

potent tree
#

But all u need to do is aoe taunt and u are fine

lusty salmon
#

I mostly pug so it might be them just wanting to send it asap

@lusty grotto is authority still best enchant for weapon? or is radiant better with mainstat and more defensive

are there specific slots you guys would recommend crafting a slot on or just whatever is best ilvl upgrade?

both are called authority

do you mean depths vs radiant? if so radiant is better for keys, depths for raid

Depends on few things. Like, u do have a myth track shield or weapon? Do u expect to get one soon? Mostly u craft pieces with low stat budget and or weapon and shield depending on your situation

#

I ended up using a spark on a ring because I didn’t even have a heroic track ring because this game hates me

muted arch
#

have 639 shield alrdy, not weapon yet tho

#

was also thinking of doing ring cuz its the only piece that isnt at least heroic track lol

lusty grotto
#

if youre killing myth sikran it might not be worth

muted arch
#

yeah thats what i was thinking

#

only a question of DPS getting higher prio on it

lusty grotto
#

but still, if your guild is prio'ring FDKs as they should

sick sentinel
#

whats swing timer ?

lusty grotto
#

the time it takes for you to auto attack

muted arch
#

maybe ill get lucky with vault

sick sentinel
#

ah i see thanks 🙂

lusty grotto
#

"maybe ill get lucky" seems to me like it would be a good crafting slot

potent tree
#

That’s why it’s hard to say what u should craft without knowing your situation. Weapon is the biggest dps upgrade slot u can get but not necessarily is the best option to craft if u have access to myth track weapon

lusty grotto
#

fdks should have prio on sikran because nobody will realistically farm myth queen for their BiS

#

so depending on how many FDKs your guild has

#

and if youre consistently killing sikran

#

in 2-3 weeks you will have enough gilded to make up for what you lost on the craft

#

betting on RNG is not optimal

shrewd plinth
#

What’s the logic behind the bis for prot warr? I know for dps you kind of just find the highest damage sims. Is the prot warr bis just considering damage, and the ilvls/skill is how you actually live?

lusty grotto
#

whatever sims highest is usually the best defensive gain outside of shields / some trinkets

tribal wharf
#

yes, because in short

lusty grotto
#

because stats provide both

tribal wharf
#

if you do the maximum dmg

#

you are doing ~ the maximum survival as well

#

less thinkies, more zug zug

shrewd plinth
#

💪⚔️💪

tropic linden
# tribal wharf if you do the maximum dmg

Basically this, u need more rage to do more dmg, with more rage u have more shields, more avatar procs (more dmg), more indom heal. With more SB uptime, more dmg from SS

#

It's all connected

shrewd plinth
#

Was curious why we weren’t just full verse haste but i see crit and mastery have different effects for prot/fury

lusty grotto
#

were not bears

muted arch
lusty grotto
#

nah its not

muted arch
#

if i don't get weapon from vault, i make weapon

#

ofc it is

lusty grotto
#

its your sub, but its not

muted arch
#

so if it's tuesday morning and u havent opened up vault yet

#

do u craft a piece first or open vault first?

#

its just simple logic

lusty grotto
#

its not tuesday morning

#

its friday

muted arch
#

yeah i dont raid til tuesday

#

like i said

#

lol

lusty grotto
#

not optimal

#

but you can do what you want

its better to get used to prot war

#

no point in sending the craft

#

if the power aint needed now

lusty grotto
#

why not augusto

#

we get a full spark on tuesday

#

so hes just sitting on sparks

plush tendon
#

yea, but to craft is a gilded crest loss

lusty grotto
#

still banking on a vault

#

4 days away

#

hmm

#

sorry

plush tendon
#

he doesnt need the power now

lusty grotto
#

i just dont see it, but they can do whatever they want

plush tendon
#

toon is basically gonna do some 10s, fill out the vault and sit till Tuesday

lusty grotto
#

i would insta send it if i didnt have to fucking save it for charged hammer because i got assigned to fury jail

plush tendon
#

little to no point to send for immediate power gain

#

at least thats my thought process

#

and, if no wep in vault, he can send a wep craft on Tuesday

#

and be ready for raid

lusty grotto
#

i guess, if they only do vault keys

#

which sounds like that's whats going on

plush tendon
#

yea; if homie was gonna push score, do mythic raid prog I would say craft

lusty grotto
#

but to me, it would be way better since im litearlly running keys 90% of the time in WoW

plush tendon
#

but he aint

lusty grotto
#

outside of raid nights

faint maple
muted arch
#

yeah if i needed the boost now ofc i would send it

#

point is if theres no immediate benefit it's better to wait a couple days and see

#

to be optimal for raid

lusty grotto
#

🤷

plush tendon
#

I agree with the thought process

#

heck, Im doing the same thing on my warrior XD

#

since I got two mythic kill on him this week

#

bosses 3 and 4

#

if no Sikran wep in vault, we craft a wep on Tues

lusty grotto
#

and then sit on another spark

plush tendon
#

but Im also a 2 myth boss, 4 10s kind of gamer

lusty grotto

taking a hole on your bags

when you should be worried about mats instead

I dont full time on my warrior

lusty grotto

in 3 weeks you will have so many fucking gilded

plush tendon
#

and I just dont have the time on Weekends anymore to do that many keys

lusty grotto
#

its just hoarder mentality

muted arch
#

yeah but then u gotta wait 3 weeks to upgrade mythic gear lmao

#

it's only horder if you have the crests in surplus

lusty grotto

which you will

thats not a warrior

hes 617 😦

muted arch

i've used all crests, and have enough to either upgrade a piece from vault or craft a piece

which is perfect for doing a handful of 10s

youve used all crests

thats all you had to say

there isn't a soul here who agrees with your lack of logic kek

i dont do 8 vault keys, so the value is massive for me

For his circumstances, waiting for vault is optimal no?
Different playstyles call for different things --- I'd be crafting something immediately if I was still pushing this week

thats the point Lei

honestly, kind of bullshit if you ask me

I mean feels like you were calling his opinion wrong but his opinion was not for your playstyle

i didnt say it was wrong, just to be clear

in contrast

the first thing i stated in this entire convo is that i don't need the upgrade til raid on tuesday..

I’m kinda pissed blizzard is leaving brood as is

Not optimal for your playstyle, aka if you are continuing to push content -- yes that would be correct.
It is optimal for his playstyle --- which is "I'm done for the week, not pushing keys, no more raid this week"

i would think monk, monk seems to be a good dmg spong raid tank im told

plush tendon
#

Abom doesnt work

cause you need to grip all of the small adds instant

yep, it's terrible comp requirements

plush tendon

should just give DPS DK gorfiends as a option

instead of blood only

shut summit

shoulda been done awhile ago

Sense I see you on wcl with a bdk buddy

How rough was it?

shut summit

We always make not having a bdk work, anduin, fyrakk etc but this fight just isn't feasible unless you wanna take forever

plush tendon
#

if grips are the raid buff... then every DK should have gorfiends and reduced CD grip

#

then with those -2 spec points in the class tree, maybe they give BDK some stuff good for M+

is this the master hammer?

i dont see an item recipe for this so iassume its from this

tribal wharf
#

25?

#

cuz its not listed in the smithing book and its source isnt listed on wowhead

lusty grotto
#

again

#

its 100 bs skill

tribal wharf
#

cuz i can have someone create it form e

arctic quartz
#

its leveling blacksmithing to 100

lusty grotto
#

ive said it twice

#

and he still doesnt read

tribal wharf
#

cuz if using the DF master hammer is a bug/glitch i could in theory be banned for that

lusty grotto
#

typical yogi

arctic quartz
#

dunno man i find it weird how level = skill

tribal wharf
#

i hear you, i can have it work ordered

#

and then use it since im above 25 khaz bs

lusty grotto
#

theres no source on wowhead, because if it doesnt drop from mobs and is auto learned (like this one is), wowhead has no way of adding a "source" in its database

#

wowhead requires their client to report if it literally drops from mobs as a source, and/of learned from recipes

tribal wharf
#

okay, so what does it mean by "artisan" repair hammer

#

because i already have a repair hammer recipe

lusty grotto
#

thats the equipment

#

blacksmith gear

#

not the repair hammer

tribal wharf
#

oh right okay, is there a purple smith hammer again

lusty grotto
tribal wharf
#

ya thats why though

#

its a glitch, and i could save my self in theory, hundreds of thousands of gold on repairs

lusty grotto
#

this is what youre looking for

#

and again, for the 5th time

tribal wharf
#

which i heard on first one

lusty grotto
#

you learn it by having 100 skill

yes

but i can have it work ordered to me

i guess

does anyone have a solution for pug wrangling

if i had another smith, i could work order it and get the knowledge for it and keep hammer cake and eat it

lusty grotto

i dont know why you would yogi

#

you can only repair items you're fully specialized in

tribal wharf
#

for DF is everything

lusty grotto
tribal wharf

that hammer works on TWW gear

youre looking for this one then

now that you mention it

seems pretty cheap to make

good question

strong forum
#

Nim can't mute

But I can

lusty grotto

i can mute

in RL

#

(:

tribal wharf
#

well, im saying, if you have all knowledge applied in DF smithing, and you use the blue master repair hammer from DF, it repairs tww plate gear

lusty grotto
#

yes, but coreforged also does that

#

except for crafted items

tribal wharf
#

coreforged is consumed on used right

lusty grotto
#

i think so

tribal wharf
#

well, this hammer i am speaking of, NEVER gets consumed

lusty grotto
#

either way, that seems like a bug

#

because you should be specialized in stuff

tribal wharf
#

ya, and then i just macro it to target all of my armor pieces from tww

#

left over macro i made in DF, struggled with that macro

#

all it has to be is flag all gear from TWW as unable to be hit with df hammer

lusty grotto
#

yes, use it while you can

#

exploit early and often

tribal wharf

i think i will report it to blizzard

oh

i forgot about it

arctic quartz

thats okay

lusty grotto
#

well

#

ritual knife's effect is a load of primary stat

#

so you gotta see it that way

#

3319 Str = 3319 AP vs the AP difference between weapons

#

what other options do you have in vault

#

that trinket you can probably get with a map

#

weapon can be farmable if youre spamming 7s

#

so dont look at it from a vault sim point

#

or strictly by it

violet ginkgo
lusty grotto
#

it depends on what youre spec'ed into

#

and what your goals are

#

doing loads of crafts? ingenuity

#

resourcefulness as well

#

doing loads of alloys? multicraft

#

i meant to say gear crafts

violet ginkgo
#

Hmmm... if now material use for crafting weigh a lot, will crafting alloys more beneficial in long run?

lusty grotto
#

not in the long run

#

but for now its decent

#

if youre a tradechat crafter its probably better to do ingenuity + resourcefulness

cosmic canyon
#

which kind of 'play' is this talent "trying" to go at? when would it ever be useful

yes of course, raid build use it.

for M+ we don't use it because we use the poin to take some utilities.

had 4 options

but i would lean to weapon, even if the sim says trinket

Hello friends. Wowhead guide gear section rates the Ovi'nax trinket B tier - do the buffs to it change that significantly?

green forge
#

is demolish just broken? it says it grants immunity to forced movement effects while channeling but I've either got a misunderstanding of what constitutes a forced movement effect or it straight up doesn't work in most situations. I've been knocked and pulled while channeling constantly.

lusty grotto
#

yeah its

#

not consistent

#

it def works on stuff, but not on others

green forge
#

I would not recommend attempting it on anything in the raid at this point, I've tried to use it to make some good plays and it constantly blows up in my face lol

lusty grotto
#

seems like boss knocks and/or sucks arent affected

#

but trash knocks/sucks are

green forge
#

even a mob in a delve just picked me up and interrupted the channel before it was finished

lusty grotto
#

do you mean the kobold that picks you up?

green forge
#

yeah

#

last "boss" of the ambush

lusty grotto
#

i wouldnt put that in the same page as knockbacks or pulls

that just sounds like worst Death Advance

green forge
#

stun though

plush tendon
green forge
#

I don't know what it's coded as but since I can't take action I'd call it a stun

lusty grotto
#

again the only consistency ive found is that it works with trash mob abilities, but not bosses

#

you can attack him while youre grabbed

#

so its not a stun

hmm seemed like my abilities weren't going off I'll have to check it next time

Someone said that I can have a shield slam/shield block macro and a shield slam/ignore pain macro. As long as they’re 2 different macros (and not doing the execute build) is there anything inherently bad about using it? Have shield block key bound too

lusty grotto
#

do you understand what they are used for

i.e. they are not used to Shield Slam

You can put SS into other off GCD binds to snipe resets but in order to play optimally you still need an individual shield slam bind that you press only to shield slam

its an SL cap, so reduced damage, not an absolute cap

i dont know why blizzard likes to SL cap tanks, tanks shouldn't have capped shit just for threat reasons

and then you have tanks that are uncapped completely
