lofty glen
#

okay thx 😄

unkempt hazel
#

go get them champ

sharp gale
#

I don’t know, I crafted 1h / shield 636, I was able to free upgrade to 636 the 2 hand I took in this week’s vault

unkempt hazel
#

thats how it works yeah

maiden nimbus
#

In Ara-Kara what is the best way to handle this pack - specifically around avoiding the encasing webs the overseers cast?

On other Overseer packs, I can leap out of the webs when slowed...But on this pack it feels like RNG because I can leap out of the first cast, but don't have it if there is another right after. The Grasping Slash slow is sometimes stacked so high there is no shot I can run out of the webs. Is there a way I am supposed to handle this?

sharp gale
#

Maybe dwarf can too

#

You need 2 « ways » of getting out with 90% slow on you

#

Leap is 1

sharp gale
#

So you need to find another one or yes use avatar to free you

maiden nimbus
#

AHh yeah I am a human...i sometimes can intervene but sometimes the groups positioning relative to me still leaves me in a web.

Did berserk work for it?

Didn’t notice any changes, but I only did maybe 4 keys total this week to fill the vault

GESPEICHERT

#

I opened the wa saw it’s 50+ small WAs, I didn’t bother to add a sound

twilit lagoon
#

and for me it already says "THis aura plays a sound via a condition". but it doesnt 😄

twilit lagoon
#

THATS what i was looking for! thanks 😄

sharp gale
#

Yes basically it has a sound by default but none is selected

reef hazel
#

At the double forgeloader in stonevault, its better to skip them and go right - right? Just had a pug insist we do double forgeloaders then the pack left with the single forgeloader

sharp gale
reef hazel
#

Yea right? I've never done that route before, always gone right, got the vers buf, through the middle then walked back

sharp gale
#

I go take the vers buff

reef hazel
#

Double forge almost merked us too

sharp gale
#

And come back depends if you got a shroud/soothe or if you like to run

is there like an objectively better choice between fueled by violence and brutal vitality?

What level key is that even for

That seems awful

You’re right

That’s the penultimate one

#

I don't care how much people say taking bolster and ravager is better

#

Not having shield charge with the capstone

#

Feels too wrong

#

Even if it's right

sharp gale

#

xd

molten gorge
#

For me it's just the value of shield charging into a pack tbh

sharp gale
#

And bolster is a « idk why » for me

molten gorge
#

That's why I think

#

Covers gaps lost by not having SC

vale karma
#

is there a way to check shield block uptime in combat only?

molten gorge
#

Hover over your hits on dmg taken

vale karma
#

thanks

molten gorge
#

Cause you need it for shield block

sharp gale
molten gorge
#

Hmm maybe, I think I was at 95ish with the standard build (HR + SC)

#

And now with enough haste I'm at 95 with ITF + SC

#

But maybe, I've never done the maths

#

And haven't tried playing without SC yet

sharp gale
eager phoenix
#

hr is goat

sharp gale
#

I meant still taking HR when you have 35%+ haste, i know HR is goat

molten gorge
#

But I've only played the BSV build in 12s and tbh, with the nerf, probably won't play it again

vale karma
#

any tips for the trash before last boss in SV? 😦 Bricked my 10 cause of it

#

do you pull the last 2 packs out of the room ?

eager phoenix
#

play safe big io, just do the packs 1 by 1 and los pull out the room like 2005 stratholme

molten gorge
#

Not rn at least

#

Oh wait

#

Sorry I thought this was in reply to the build chat

lofty glen
#

When do we use ravager? On cd in packs?

molten gorge

the assumption is ofc timer is good so no point pulling dubble. but im pretty sure your average 10 pug wont have the brain cells to handle quad stoneshapers spitting out totems

I wish they would buff the ravager capstones tho, never see anyone take it

And our buffs say that our Second Wind Aura is always up

sharp gale
# molten gorge Hmmmm

I’m taking into account I think I have 100% SB with this as it is on my current character

bolster if you want a cd, aoe silence if you want another stop or just show of force/best served cold if you want dmg

question here. I got a Warbound champ track swort from 3rd raid boss in HC. Wort taking it for testing to tank?

sweet summit
#

if you don't want it for an alt

#

yeah sure

eager phoenix
#

Chump track weapon isnt a big commitment if you end up vendoring it

sharp gale
#

Okey when I come home I will try that in someone’s 11 or 12

eager phoenix
#

Xd

sharp gale
lofty glen
#

i mean. is it a goot swort for warry tanking?

wicked pollen
#

doesnt matter

#

you want ilevel

vale karma
molten gorge
sweet summit
#

a good weapon for tanking is a high ilvl one hander with strength

lofty glen
#

and it is for testing if i want to tank.

wicked pollen
#

you could also just buy a green off of the auction house

vale karma
#

I wouldn't waste runed crests on champ track gear tbh

lofty glen
wicked pollen
#

then just use that to test

#

if you are not sure

#

then you can equip it after

eww, bis m+ neck and cloak drops from stonevault? T_T

In stonevault you have to press your buttons.

#

Same with grim batol.

strong forum
#

but my recommendation is just not dropping either

#

and just not playing BSV

#

cuz youre cooked either way

sharp gale
strong forum
# sharp gale

if youre going with this build, you might aswell drop SoF and pick up naked shield charge

#

but SoF is more dmg all things considered

sharp gale
#

I asked gio what he recommend since he is the one suggesting to pick ravager on a bsv build, I can try one with SoF or with naked SC, I’m open to try

#

I was more confused on him taking bolster because I think you maintain SB without it

strong forum
#

with just HR, yes

#

your goal with BSV is survivability at the cost of dmg right?

#

and thats what bolster gives you aswell

#

thats the whole thought process

#

cuz whenever people try to cook builds, they VERY OFTEN give up dmg, to get dmg somewhere else which... you can just sim

#

or give up tankiness to gain tankiness somewhere else

#

which makes no fucking sense to me

#

you do 1 or the other

#

but you dont drop surv to get other surv

#

like HUH

sharp gale
#

Yes but not over exaggerate survivability, that’s why even you want to be safe it’s too much a waste to take bolster

strong forum
#

thats my take with BSV

#

its just overkill at the cost of SEVERE other talents

sharp gale
#

I asked what are people’s bsv build and I’ll try some when I come home

strong forum
#

ye thats fine

#

i played it in 1 key once in DF

#

and it was dogshit to play

#

when it was on CD i felt IMMEDIATELY uncomfortable

#

despite being in no danger whatsoever

I played one time I think in a grimbatol and the first time I did the last pull of ara Kara with the slow

hi mwahi

Hello.

burnt torrent
#

@remote tusk Isn't stam on legs more value than armor? as stam will be EHP for both magic and physical damage?

onyx vessel
#

No

remote tusk
#

Armor gives Primary Stat.

stoic pivot
burnt torrent
sharp gale
#

Yes and armor give you strength so armor with the class talent even it’s also a minuscule amount compared to your armor

HR then

That amount of Shield Slam is also not enough to keep that up.

I see i see, Its passive so honestly I forgot all about it

molten gorge

Could have had more than one charge going in

Like as in before the start of the pic

#

He had SC + 2x Block or whatever

#

It all stacks

wicked pollen
stoic pivot
#

nvm I looked at the wrong buff uptime, he def drops it there

burnt torrent
#

The reason I had stam on my legs to be honest was because R1 warrior in M+ has it lol

stoic pivot
#

im stupid haha

molten gorge
#

Lol

burnt torrent
#

So upon switching that, it gave me legitimately like 3 strength

remote tusk
#

I doubt it.

burnt torrent
#

Ill for science two screenshots to you right now hold on

wicked pollen
#

very simple how much armor does the enchant give

burnt torrent
#

Sorry ill correct myself, 50 strength

sharp gale
remote tusk
# burnt torrent

Yes, but you also gained 1100+ Armor in addition to that Strength. So you are hitting for slightly more, absorbing slightly more with Ignore Pain etc.

sharp gale
#

So it depends on context or maybe he just dropped shield block

burnt torrent
inland raft
#

Why would you want to lose 30% of your damage of your hardest hitting ability during the damage amp?

burnt torrent
#

Gunna cost like 50k to recraft these 3 pieces to be vers

sharp gale
#

Im too lazy and on my phone to check

inland raft
#

My point is only time youd let block fall off is if kiting or moving between packs or doing mechanics in raid. Its a significant dps loss to drop block

#

I was responding to the idea that should let it drop during the damage amp for some reason

#

Whats the full talent build we're running for M+?

wicked pollen
#

🙂

burnt torrent
#

so why are all the top running into the fray instead of heavy reper

tribal wharf
#

because they have giga haste

wicked pollen
#

because they want haste

strong forum
#

cuz they think 20% is just enough haste and they HATE not playing ITF

tribal wharf
#

that and its good in raid apparently

strong forum
#

even tho they sometimes die to lack of block

#

and hate playing the safe option but then play BSV

remote tusk
#

Shield Block CD is reduced by Haste.

wicked pollen
#

okay but i hate having less haste as well

burnt torrent
#

i've been messing around with some builds

#

and into the fray feels dangerous with block uptime

😦

and theyre all nowhere near that haste

how much with shield charge

#

that is with shield charge

remote tusk
#

Ok.

wicked pollen
#

XD

remote tusk
#

Premonition

strong forum
#

without shield charge you need 100% haste

#

🙂

remote tusk
#

😂

strong forum
#

you need 67% perma haste to get 100% uptime, you dont need 100% uptime but the levels theyre playing is not sufficient

#

so they play bolster + itf

#

instead of just playing HR

#

and have true 100% uptime with ease

#

and get 1 extra 2nd gate talent punto somewhere else

sharp gale
#

I personally don’t play ITF I have 35% haste without, I need 1 event with no shield block to die, and me dying = wipe, nah I will skip it

but if you don't have wall or demo or something you just step back and its ok

toxic pewter
#

if demolish just gave any rage at all the spec would feel like 8 thousand times better

#

even if it gave like literally 15 rage or some crap

#

cuz it also stops your auto attacks

sharp gale
#

Just make each strike of demolish an auto attack category thingy

toxic pewter
#

yeah that would be fine also

#

give like 9 rage during demolish

#

even that 9 rage would make the spec much smoother

sharp gale
#

If every strike of demolish was categorize as an auto attack like a thing that is affected by that

nocturne vine
#

Happy im not the only one having the problem

toxic pewter
#

the rage economy of colossus vs thane has been an ongoing discussion since beta

nocturne vine
#

Its so satisfying to land a demolish

#

Yup but i see it is played specially in raid

#

And maybe somone have a guide or something to recommend

wowhead

#

🙂

#

guess what the people who wrote wowhead and icyveins are in this discord

tribal wharf
#

how about instigate, or instagator, is a new talent about the spell taunt

#

basically vigilance or whatever, when tuanted it deals less to you and you deal more to it

#

that would be cool

sharp gale
#

Yep gotta be the first to pull that boss then and every X second i’ll taunt

wicked pollen
#

what if i could take punish and juggernaut at the same time

high wyvern
#

How do you guys gather big packs that has multiple caster? Do you ask for help with range interrupt

tribal wharf
#

for science, i equipped taunt trinket from SV at ilvl 610 in a +4 threads took 26 minutes did 26M " " " " " " H e A l I n G " """" " "" " "

tribal wharf
#

im very not wanting to call what it did as healing

#

but technically by all accounts, it is

sharp gale
#

Los, kick first cast, caster pack being the regroup point

high wyvern
#

Im trying to gather the first 3 packs in City of Threads and theres always one or two caster just free casting and never group up

#

Annoying

tropic star
#

yeah good point, if 2 casters you can just kick one and group on 2nd

#

if more than three looking for LOS or great

#

if not may ask for grip/ranged kick in comms or hope pug has situational awareness

ornate thicket
#

Kick first caster leap into next, aoe silence roar drag back to first

high wyvern
#

We have AoE silence?

toxic pewter
#

na

lusty grotto
#

he means aoe kick

ornate thicket
#

Yes if you talent it

lusty grotto
#

not silence

high wyvern
#

Oh disrupting shout?

sharp gale
#

Under mass taunt talent you can make it a mass kick

ornate thicket
#

Well right its aoe kick with a 6sec silence attached to it

high wyvern
#

I dont want to miss blood craze

lusty grotto
#

thats just a standard kick though

ornate thicket
#

Its def longer than standard

lusty grotto
#

no

#

its a regular aoe kick

sharp gale
#

Yes if it kick nothing the caster will not move

lusty grotto
#

theres no silence

#

anyway keep going

high wyvern
#

It says kick for 6s

pale canopy
#

My guilds tanks left and so im switching from fury to Prot does anyone know any good youtubers for heroic/ mythic palace or high keys. Luckily im already geared for the most part.

high wyvern
#

6s silence if kicked

#

Regular kick is 3s silence right?

toxic pewter
#

lol

high wyvern
#

So it is a little longer

toxic pewter
#

it's not correct to say we have an aoe silence though, that is giving people the wrong impression of how the ability functions

lusty grotto
#

yeah its 3 more seconds

high wyvern
#

AoE kick is a better word

lusty grotto
#

however, with TWW stuff

#

the school shut down doesnt really do much

#

depending on the mob of course

wicked pollen
#

reading is too hard

ornate thicket
#

Ok yes its a 6sec aoe kick. You knew what i meant you twats. Lol

wicked pollen
#

🙂

toxic pewter
#

many mobs have more than one school of magic and it's mega annoying lmao

high wyvern
ornate thicket
#

Hahaha yup

sharp gale
#

People may try to charge mass taunt/kick a pack of caster to gather them on another pack, they may just not move because you kicked nothing, like a silence would do

high wyvern
#

tank diversity seemed pretty good this patch

#

even prot pally keks

lusty grotto
#

yeah

#

gotta love it though

#

its always good when all tanks are represented

#

or the vast majority

ornate thicket
#

In the first pull of CoT my description of the pull works cuz they cast right away but yes you need to make sure things are casting before pressing

high wyvern
#

i love warriors but I do miss veng DH be able to aoe grip / aoe control 3 packs for a good 15s in DFs

toxic pewter
#

well that was wildly imbalanced

lusty grotto
#

here we go again

toxic pewter
#

of course you enjoyed it

wicked pollen
#

15 seconds?

#

it was 40

high wyvern
#

lmao

lusty grotto
high wyvern
#

tanks also never die in DFs

#

mobs white swing melee actually hurts like a B now

wicked pollen
#

i think vdh was 40ish alone

high wyvern
#

brewmaster never meta sadge

deft mortar
#

Honestly with our stun frontal also knocking up and having like 25 sec CD

toxic pewter
#

isnt brew in a very strong spot right now pretty much every tank is strong

turbid shuttle
deft mortar
#

I don't see the need for aoe kick

deft mortar
toxic pewter
#

cot i think lusting the 2nd pull is better apparently

deft mortar
#

Only real tank is warrior and paladin

lusty grotto
#

pretty much every tank is strong yes

toxic pewter
#

wait are paladins good now

deft mortar
high wyvern
#

how is blood DK in high keys? is it still insanely spiky damage and spiky healing?

lusty grotto
#

paladins have been good

deft mortar
#

Tank has to have a shield or it's a dps with tuant

lusty grotto
#

they are slightly squishier but

deft mortar
#

Tank has to be plate armor

lusty grotto
#

they pump dam

deft mortar
#

If you dodge, you're a rogue

high wyvern
#

i think overall balance is pretty good for tank. Healer balance is terrible though. And DPS is like always Mage / FDK

If so cry about it nerd

toxic pewter

im ngl 11s were easy but every 12 i have done so far has not gone well

high wyvern

i wished they buff otherh healers as well. Right now rshaman feels way too strong and it feels bad bringing other healer, except maybe disc

other healers are fine

if you dont understand why rsham is brought, thats fine, but its not because other healers are dumpster

they are capable

I have a question on spending crests. Should I try to spend crests on making my best items better or should I spend crests on making the items I will guarantee ably keep better? Like I have egg with speed and myth track gloves. The egg is better, but the gloves I will always keep

deft mortar
#

Disci goes incredibly hard

high wyvern
lusty grotto
#

meta does not mean others are garbage

deft mortar
#

But spec composition doesn't matter at like below 12 keys and even then doesn't matter

narrow hull
#

Had a juiced disc do 480k dps overall in a db. Def felt it in pulls.

lusty grotto
#

it means it fits a specific group profile

#

i wish people would understand that in today's WoW

deft mortar
#

Unless you're pushing for high ranks, it doesn't matter at all.

high wyvern
lusty grotto
#

you must be trolling

deft mortar
high wyvern
#

not to that extreme no

deft mortar
#

Keep having to solo bosses

high wyvern
#

but pugging a +9 is harder than a coordinated +11 i would say

deft mortar
#

I had to solo SoB first boss from 60% because healer went afk and dps died to explosion

#

At 4

narrow hull
#

if there was 0 coordination why would meta even cross someones mind

deft mortar
#

And I wasn't about to wipe to a damn M4 boss

limpid ruin
#

Meta comps are often based on pulls you arent doing. You dont need a aug to live when the tank is single/double pulling packs

narrow hull
#

don't think we're understanding why something is meta

deft mortar
#

I mostly care about doing a physical/magic cleave at most tbh

#

Mostly physical since I got yell

high wyvern
#

please explain then

deft mortar
#

But retri and DH doing 70% magic dmg sucks

narrow hull
neon elk
#

Enha and dk are also quite mixed

toxic pewter
#

how much of frost dk damage is magic... seems like a lot especially with breath build

high wyvern
#

its a bit overtuned

narrow hull
#

It has utility, and if you misplay a bigger cd you have 0 externals

#

It fits every comp currently, and brings lust. Shift those elsewhere and it changes group dynamics.

deft mortar
#

Ngl my fave healer is resto druid cuz 3% vers, cat form dps, and CR

#

2nd is disco priest because somehow nobody ever dies with a good disco to anything

#

Felt so good with a disco boralus last boss slams into dispells and bro handled it like a boss

neon elk
#

Thats just a good healer nothing to do with class

deft mortar
#

MW touch of deaths and cc goes hard too

#

Good rings are amazing

#

Knocking ranged into melee

#

Esp if no frost dk

#

NW 2nd boss MW is peaceful asf

lusty grotto
tribal wharf
#

what is it that fdk even brings

lusty grotto
#

thats a pretty big one

deft mortar
#

Does resto give 2% mastery as well?

#

Ankh ain't bad either

#

For fuck ups

tribal wharf
#

i dont know dk well, but GENERALLY, i prefer bdk + fdk over uhdk

narrow hull
#

grip, brez

deft mortar
#

Occasional death strike if low

tribal wharf
#

im starting to understand uh more but i suck the big one at uhdk

lusty grotto
#

the reason your loved vdh was meta was not due only the cc, it was uncapped damage, chaos brand, and tankiness equivalent to all other tanks

tribal wharf
#

it aint good at all

deft mortar
#

Pretty tanky too and ams

lusty grotto
#

it buffed the SP

#

if any of those was dumpster, it wouldn't have been meta

narrow hull
tribal wharf
#

i get to 30% of boss , die and then get rezzed 3 times in lfr

deft mortar
#

Chaos Brand on tank goes extremely hard

#

We need more pure physical dmg dealers

#

Prot War Rogue Hunt WW only goes so far

#

Makes Hunt a must for ranged

tribal wharf
#

enhance shaman should be a tank, i dont know how you give class ability to wear shield and then they cant be a tank

lusty grotto
#

also not to mention VDH's darkness became incredibly strong after the rework

tribal wharf
#

maybe enhance does dw 1h i dunno

deft mortar
#

I may level a VDH after my Protadin alt

#

Tried blood feels horrible to play

#

After warrior esp

tribal wharf
#

blood is disgusting with gear and raid or party buffs

narrow hull
#

blood goat tank atm for gameplay

#

so chill

deft mortar
#

U don't die unless u get one shot I guess

#

But prot warr just doesn't take the dmg in the first place kekw

tribal wharf
#

bdk is live lord

#

eviterno, if you will

#

he just bully you until hes ready to die

deft mortar
#

Protadin seems to be an excellent aoe tank

#

Everything is cleave and dmg becomes absorb shield

narrow hull
#

100 -> 1% on bdk I sleep. 100 - 60% on prot I shit pants.

tribal wharf
#

bdk vs mythic keystone boss especially cap vault key

#

is literall

#

"when do i wipe?" - bdk

deft mortar
#

Healers hate tracking whether if BDK will self heal or die tho

gray mountain
#

hey guys do you follow any site in specific for BiS list. Every site seems to be slightly different with trinks etc but archon has swarm / ara trink

deft mortar
#

That juicy 7M death strike

Self heal

lusty grotto

and sims

tribal wharf
#

how do you even heal a bdk in a +13, just for example, do you just absorb them and regen

#

?

high wyvern
#

this meta diversity as you goes higher key is so funny in DF lmao

sharp gale
tribal wharf
#

and then they heal them selves alot?

lusty grotto
#

yogi

#

you watch runic power

if runic power = dont heal

no runic power = heal

thats it

simple as

sharp gale
#

And just in case external him on pull

unkempt hazel
#

it wasnt that prot was bad

#

just dh was better than everyone

deft mortar
#

But also seasons like this is when u can rank rly high in your own spec rankings

lusty grotto
#

non-meta does not mean incapable

deft mortar
#

Cuz every sucker rerolls

lusty grotto
#

most regulars here played DF completely as prot

deft mortar
#

My resto druid friend is like top 50 on some dungs now because everyone is a shammy

lusty grotto
#

as did i

unkempt hazel
#

the problem with df dh was that they had so many stops most pugs could just chill and let the dh do everything

lusty grotto
#

the only season where prot has been actual dumpster fire was SL S1

tribal wharf
#

i wont even lie, im watching sum dude stream doom 3 content on youtube lol

unkempt hazel

🫠

deft mortar
#

I played S1, maxed out the game then quit

god sl s1 pre-reprisal was great

I miss BFA corruption thunderclaps

thats what we have now with thane

deft mortar
#

Nahh it's not at that level where your dps is below in overalls

tribal wharf
#

nothing tops TD

#

that shit was insane

#

that shit was a literal bfg 9000

deft mortar

In DF S1 I often beat my DPS in Nokhud offensive with spell reflect abuse

Insane dmg

Not corruption

did we forget about the 20 man tank TD raid?

sharp gale
tribal wharf
#

kill bosses in 40 seconds

lusty grotto
#

lol

#

it wasnt conflict and strife

#

i didnt fucking play that

sharp gale
lusty grotto
#

DC + BoMx3 did work

#

prot's damage was by far and wide the best

#

no

#

CnS was the mini root on mobs

#

it wasnt the reason

sharp gale
lusty grotto
#

it was prot's damage

sharp gale
#

And dmg yes

lusty grotto
#

no

#

it was just

#

damage

#

conflict and strife wasnt in the picture

#

we padded Zul before shit became blockable in s2

#

we knew what we had

#

the damage was insane with DC and BoMx3

#

and AM resetting demo

#

and LS

neon elk
#

I miss TD , it was stupid and all but damn laser goes brrrr

lusty grotto
#

the s2 changes just solidified prot as meta

tribal wharf
#

everybody want to see the deathstar explode in starwars

lusty grotto
#

because everything that killed us in s1, like throw rocks and shit became blockable

#

so Damage + Defensiveness = meta

#

plus reaping

#

uncapped TC spam

#

Damage + Defensiveness + Battle Shout on rogues = meta

sharp gale
#

I miss nyalotha hc clears with 29 tanks

neon elk
#

Yea was fun ngl

#

Stupid but fun

#

Wasnt there also like 1tank full mages runs or something ?

sharp gale
#

Yes and they killed ilgynoth when he disappear from the room just from fire mage mastery

lusty grotto
#

ah yes

#

masterful corruption mages

#

that was fun for magechip

sharp gale
#

Personally I liked ilgy mm no dispel strat

lusty grotto
#

funnest alt was my hpal though

sharp gale
#

Hum

lusty grotto
#

thats how chipadin came to be

sharp gale
#

Alts in bfa what a topic

lusty grotto
#

s4 alts

#

before that, hmm not playable for the most part

sharp gale
#

15k shit to farm to buy corruptions on a monthly rotation

lusty grotto
#

it was bad yeah but

#

doable

#

chipadin and magechip farmed full corruptions

#

those were my 2 active alts there

sharp gale
#

God before essences account wide you had to farm conflict and strife in PvP on all alts

lusty grotto
#

oh

#

shearchip too

#

cause i did raden weekly for slappers

#

bro

#

you have something for conflict and strife

#

holy shit

#

i swear to god i never used it anywhere

#

on any of those 4 characters

sharp gale
#

Oh the rank 4 ?

lusty grotto
#

0 rank

#

that was some pussy shit

#

TD first pull was fucking cake without it

sharp gale
#

It was that essence that doubled vers when stunned ?

lusty grotto
#

huh

#

what are you talking about

sharp gale
#

And some tanks just hit their corruption adds just to be invincible

#

Or I don’t really remember

lusty grotto
#

you just put full versatile corruptions on

#

thats it

#

lucid for us

sharp gale
#

There was a thing that if you are stunned you gained like 50% or double vers

tribal wharf
#

TBF, corruption was the source of the 40% versa meme

sharp gale
lusty grotto
#

shrug i did Voice major and lucid + sphere minors

#

a lot of us did

#

conflict and strife was kind of a meme

#

an "acceptable" meme

sharp gale
#

I played brew back then I didn’t follow the prot hype yet (was SL I started to be interested in war)

lusty grotto
#

kind of similar to what BSV is

#

its acceptable

#

but still low-key a meme

tribal wharf
#

im kind of curious to see a 5 man key of all larynx wearers

#

like in MDI

sharp gale
#

Sad to have no hp so TD didn’t do dmg as other tanks

tribal wharf
#

just casually deal 15M dmg in 3 seconds

#

every 2 minutes

lusty grotto
#

lucid and ineff + hasteful on hpal was cracked

#

thats why i loved it

#

and full masterful with junkyard bracers fire mage was also cracked

#

i dont remember what i ran on shearchip

#

i just remember doing heroic raden weekly

tribal wharf
#

i like heroic raiding

#

i dont like heroic raiders

lusty grotto
#

and whenever i had tokens for bonus roll

sharp gale
lusty grotto
#

yes thats what i mentioned earlier

tribal wharf
#

i think warlocks want the neck from threads for some reason

lusty grotto
#

slappers

tribal wharf
#

its not a haste neck so i dont care about it, didnt drop for me or nothin

#

im typically not mean like that if i get loot someone else can use and they werent being a jack ass i might trade them loot

sharp gale
#

Nzoth trinket : you will not die if you press that (1 min cd)

tribal wharf
#

i hated junkyard for the most part

sharp gale
#

I hate « gimmick » dungeons i don’t know what to call it

tribal wharf
#

i just dont like games that are overly opressive any thing in any game

#

fastest way to get me to turn it off and do something else

#

soon as i feel like i cant beat the boss

violet ginkgo
#

what do you consider as "overly oppresive"?

tribal wharf
#

when the challenge goes from fun to bullshit to total bullshit

#

dunno how else to put it

#

like you THINK you know how some boss works that your scared of on a 13 ill use that as example cuz thats lvl most ppl scared of, and you THINK you know exactly how he works and how to beat him

sleek sun
#

When we say you should have 40% haste unbuffed for Into the Fray, does that mean be at 40% WITH Into the Fray, or 40% before you talent into it

tribal wharf
#

then you go and try it and it doesnt work anything like how you thought it does,

sleek sun
#

Sheeit

dusky canopy
#

42.069% haste

tribal wharf
#

best example of this i can think of is you try to do a raid

sleek sun
#

I'm at 15k haste so I need another like 4k haste, damn

crude pumice
#

Should i just use heavy repercussions i only have 18% haste smh 8k. I cant keep my shield block up

use heavy repercussions

Hi, I tried searching to see if there was info on this but didnt find it, I have a macro that casts ss and thundeclap everytime they are up, its spammed pretty much, is this completly wrong? I feel like my dmg is way down and it slows my play not having the macro though.

neon elk
#

Yes it is wrong

dusky canopy
#

Very wrong

gleaming aurora
#

ill go stand in the corner...

sharp gale
#

Like it’s a cast sequence ?

neon elk
#

Like how do u even come up with such macro?

gleaming aurora
#

yes

violet ginkgo
#

you can't really cast both as they are on gcd

gleaming aurora
#

I used it on my lock when I had the cast staff from last expansion

#

so it doesnt use both, it just is almost a if this is up use this.

sharp gale
#

I don’t know what is the cast staff

#

It’s a usable staff effect ?

neon elk
#

I guess ? But what it has to do with war

wicked pollen
#

staff from nymue

gleaming aurora
#

Yeah, it was the staff from....I dont remember but it was an execute staff, so when I spammed shadowbolt it would use the staff

sharp gale
#

And I think a on use staff effect is off gcd so yeah macro worked

lusty grotto
#

item uses are off-gcd

#

so it works

gleaming aurora
lusty grotto
#

for an SS + TC macro to work it would have to be a cast sequence

#

and that's a big nono for us

gleaming aurora
#

anyways, its a cast sequence, and uses which ever is up

lusty grotto
#

since both are GCDs

#

huh

#

no

#

thats not how cast sequences work

sharp gale
#

I never understood what cast sequence do

lusty grotto
#

they literally cast one, then the other

#

restart loop

sharp gale
#

But you can put conditions ?

lusty grotto
#

they have no distinction on whether one or the other is up though

#

no

gleaming aurora
#

#showtooltip
/targetenemy [noexists]
/castsequence reset=10 Shield Slam, Thunder Clap
/cqs

lusty grotto
#

dont do that please

inner wren
#

put all your skills into a cast sequence and just pray

gleaming aurora
#

which is ever up it utilized

lusty grotto
#

thats just a scuffed macro

#

cause SS resets

gleaming aurora
#

ss being first

dusky canopy
#

Technically he could
Cast shield slam
Cast thunder clap
And it would always prio SS if its up
But that’s incredibly bad practice

lusty grotto
#

and youre just missing SS casts

dusky canopy
#

Do not recommend at all

sharp gale
gleaming aurora
#

lol no, it just is up ever time one is up

pallid quiver
dusky canopy
#

You’re limited to two gcd abilities without cast sequence

pallid quiver
#

And the goal is to clear somehow while only utilizing that one button

dusky canopy
#

And it prioritizes the one you have on top or “first”

#

Again do not recommend

#

But for Uber casual gameplay you could

sharp gale
#

I’ll try to understand how to do cast sequence macro and will try to not deplete a key (it’s my weekend thing)

dusky canopy
#

You really don’t want to use a cast sequence macro

#

It’s very sub optimal

deft mortar
#

I wish spear was larger so I could just [@player] it

#

That show I pop ravsger

gleaming aurora
lusty grotto
#

its not just sub optimal
