#

then just get a shield and try it out

#

tanking is one of those things where you just gotta throw urself into it and get experience

#

but it helps knowing how to play the spec first

what do you advice the boy to take

#

trinket or upgrade myth helm in catalyst

#

I'm glaring at Mad Queen's Mandate, Oppressive Orator's Larynx and Sikran's Endless Arsenal (Already have Ara-Kara). What would you go with for higher end M+?

Is prot paladin stronger than us rage boys now?

nah thats just gunna do 430k on the press

would this be any good?

Hey rookie question here : Im stuck at 85% uptime on my shieldblock but I never sit with shieldblock stack being up, that mean I'm overlapping too much of those I guess ?

sweet summit
#

sb does stack so that won't be it

jagged pier
#

Not pressing buttons aa well probably

#

Maybe wrong talents not jjst not having hr

violet ginkgo
#

so from this BRD only probably trinket that we can get?

rigid pumice
#

Thanks a lot for feedbacks
Just swppaed from fury to prot and stupidly copy/paste talent tree from top players, might be that

thanks ! will do

help me decide guys, khadros or shard for prot, m+ focused?

#

hehe

thorn basalt
#

Oh shard

#

Hm

#

For raiding Khadros, definitely

#

Dont think it makes much difference in m+

#

I think

#

But may be wrong

#

From the tooltip, shard should be better but im not sure, is it a cast like Mandate?

mint night
#

So i just got heart of roccor HC, i have myth track ara-kara, and champ track swaarmlord. What do you guys think? i will sim it ofc but havent seen anything yet on this trinket.

Hi everyone, got one question. Will this ring have any value at hero ilvl or it's just bad one?

untold breach

#

I have the same ngl

#

But 639 weapon most important

It hurts when you got crafted

#

But you gotta

And damn boy nice trinkets 😭😭😭😭

#

BRD tank trinket competitive with HC Swarmlords authority?

neat parrot
#

is this a viable choice ? even tho i lose tons of haste ? got hero track helm. and hero track belt, could use cata on the 2 other myth track items, but im thinking socket for wrists as well if i dont take the ring

sweet summit
#

it's amazing offensively

neat parrot
#

ye i know but i losea shit ton of haste

#

which would make itf not playable again, and i dont want to switch back to hvp

sweet summit
#

sounds like you don't want it then, prolly just take myth head and catalyst it. unless you can get that from raid quite soon. same with belt but belt has less stats than head

glacial skiff
#

any brd trinkets worthwhile?

sweet summit
#

idk
how do they sim?

glacial skiff
#

not talking about dps

#

talking about defensive trinkets

raw mirage
#

Are any of these trinkets good for prot warr? Both are defensive so im guessing there is not a point to sim

fluid widget
mint night
#

Dunno how much defense it gives with that amount of str.

fluid widget
#

0.1% worse than 626 ara-Kara is pretty impressive damn

#

looks like I’m gonna go visit brd

sharp gale
#

Just to remind everyone swarmlord is not an offensive trinket

#

As mandate is not a def trinket

robust granite
#

sup yall, do we know what's the best embelish for crafted one handed weapon for prot warr?
It seems like i can not pick the crit/vers while above 80% hp on weapon peace ...

fluid widget
#

Just craft a 1h without an embellishment

#

Until you get a mythic 1h from sikran

Aha oke, and the stats are haste/vers or haste/crit?

im at 615 itemlvl, and 2600 rio. i have the problem to get invited to next higher keys, because of itemlvl. now i have myth tier set legs or lfr swarmlord in weekly. do u think i should pick swarmlord lfr for m+ because its that big ?

strong forum
#

It's nowhere near relevant

#

To get that trinket lol

grim grotto
#

but it sounds nice ^^

strong forum
#

People are blowing it WAY out of proportion

#

You're losing 6% str to get a trinket that does passive absorb of 2-3 mil once every minute

#

Laughable if you ask me

#

Mark of Khardros trinket any good?

strong forum
#

Ye

#

Pretty good for dmg

arctic wharf
#

I have this axe in my vault this week - i was wondering if i should take it, or if it would be better to craft a onehand with crit/haste on it?

grim grotto
#

i thought maybe it proccs like all the time πŸ˜„

strong forum
#

The passive proc chance is like a 300k absorb once in a while

#

It's just Details fluff if you ask me

sharp gale
strong forum
#

When you have 12mil hp and 150k+ hps from ignore pain 60k from indom and 60k from leech, getting 30k hps from a trinket really ain't all that hot, especially in big pulls where you do 1mil hps, getting a 30k hps trinket is FUCKALL

#

Just pointing that out

#

And yes usually HPs do not matter, but this is a trinket that does absolutely nothing else

glacial skiff
#

how would you rate it vs a ceaseless swarmguard then?

#

or a max ilvl skarmorak

strong forum
#

Ceaseless swarmguard does dmg but only grants the dmg reduction on the target that has the debuff, so it's marginally better on ST

#

Skarmorak actually provides a decent defensive gain as getting 15% mastery is increasing not just your dmg but also grants increased critical block chance which in big pulls is infinitely more valuable than a 2mil absorb

#

On bosses or very few mobs however defensively mastery is practically useless

glacial skiff
#

i want to agree with you but for some reason i always feel more tanky with swarmlord's. Maybe because im lacking haste, or maybe because bad play

strong forum
#

It's 2% haste

glacial skiff
#

and my swarmlords is 619, basically use on cd for big packs

strong forum
#

1200 haste is barely 2% haste

glacial skiff
#

but ive also seen some ppl doing like 13-15's not press it hardly ever so really confused

strong forum
#

If it makes you feel safer, that's great

#

Feeling safe makes you play better

glacial skiff
#

its likely a placebo effect im guessing

strong forum
#

But I will die on this hill to come and say it does not provide significant defensive value

sharp gale
#

I member a trinket that does make you feel safe

strong forum
#

And this one actually had significant value

#

Because a) mainstat b) the absorb was waaaaaaaaaayy larger

#

Than measily swamplord

what i really need is a shield, seeing people with 170k armor and im at 150k bc sparks/crests are saved for dps lmao

guys, like the ring trick for "free" upgrades to the other ring slot - how does it work with weapons(1H) / shields?
Can I in theory buy a weapon, place it in my off hand and get the discord for my off hand shield?

#

or how?

strong forum
strong forum
#

Maybe as fury if you craft 1x 1h weapon?

#

And then do the trick

#

Maybe that works?

#

But basically, if you get the 2h weapon from first boss mythic you can use that as crest saver for 1h+shield aswell

sharp gale
#

My weapon was free as fury (i crafted 1 hand and shield)

strong forum

Ye it works vice versa

But still crafted a 2 hands

Hello, I have a question about which would be the optimal item to choose in the vault.

First question, the ring: According to what I have been able to investigate, despite it appearing as BIS in many guides, it is not really BIS for m+ tanks. Do you prefer full haste and versa rings?

Second question, the cloak: Is it good enough to keep it as a Hero piece instead of choosing the myth ones?

Third question, the shoulder pads: Having already 4 set pieces, is it better to use the set ones or stick with the normal ones?

I am only focusing on M+. I would like to hear your opinion, I have spent all morning trying to do a comprehension exercise but it is difficult for me.

deft mortar
#

I ain't reading all that just pick the higher ilvl upgrade

myth cape will be better than hero

Any of you feeling squishier after the update yesterday? I know they said they didnt change anything for prot, but was running a 10 siege for my warmup yesterday and just felt like I was getting the crap kicked out of me compared to normal.

is the weapon enchant authority of dephts better then the haste enchant for m+?

if i already have a crafted weapon and shield, does it make sense to open as fury or arms to avoid those slots? i do not know the probabilities for different slots per spec...

#

sikran neck, weap haste versa + leech, boots haste vers too, idk what to do lmao
atm i've a 610 neck, 619 weap (craft), 606 boots

deft mortar
#

So every overall 3 ilvl ex trinkets, you get 4% health

#

Probably the same with other stats

molten gorge
#

it's the block gain from shield that makes it so giga

deft mortar
#

Ik

molten gorge
#

but ya

#

useful bit of info for sure

#

when looking at items

deft mortar
#

But like can't underestimate a 3 ilvl increase is my point

tender reef
#

And max it asap

rocky briar
#

Was thinking about it ye coz stats ty.
I was hesitant to take the weap, then craft the 636 boots (only 76 crests atm) with the last embellish

tender reef
#

Don't craft max weapon

#

Th n craft shield

rocky briar
#

already have 636 shield

tender reef
#

Ah okay

#

Still Max weap fiest

#

How do you have 613 on 2 bosses but 626 on 4 bosses ?

#

Sikran neck

tender reef
#

Yeah take weapon and max it, but how is your 4 myth but your 2 sucks ?

Ahhh

I mean the 2 vaults are HC yea

Haste / Mastery with proc versa

I was wondering because sounds BiS too, but ye fuck it

tender reef
#

639 too strong

#

It's sadge but you're lucky you only crafted 619

#

So you are lucky indeed

rocky briar
#

Lmao

#

The 619 was free with the quest

tender reef
#

Ah I didn't do it

#

I crafted a 636 like a loser

rocky briar
#

Stupid question maybe but, why the 639 weap here is better than the 639 boots with BiS stats too, (i've 606 boots with cringe stats atm) and I've the 619 weap haste vers. For the DPS ?

tender reef
#

Because weapon is king

#

And I lvl is king

#

So highest I lvl weapon is king of kings

#

You're not a mage

rocky briar

glad it's bis stats too with leech proc

tender reef

Yeah that too

Okay, I have a question for opening pull on heroic Queen Ansurek. I co-tank with a shado-pan BRM monk. He is 623 ilvl and I am 619 ilvl, he has crafted 636 MH weapon and his heroic drop bis for offhand (dual wielding)

I have 623 dancing blade and 619 Beledar shield (waiting on gilded crest to craft 636 everforged shield.

Anyway on pull monk taunts (talented for movement speed on enemy when taunted) then I taunt and take Liquefy and he taunts for feast. Last night I pulled off of him after his taunt with just melee attacking.

My opener is Avatar, revenge, roar, demo shout, then defensive IP, ShB, and either spell block or s-wall depending on cooldown timer.

I am constantly ripping threat on pull and his response is Monk threat takes 15 seconds to ramp because of one of the talent (weapons of order).

Anyone else tanking with a BRM having threat issues on pull?

rocky briar

I had the same problem with my dk

Just be sure you do not lower your ability whatsoever

Oftentimes in situations like this you will be blamed for ripping aggro

Tell your raidlead to kick the loser

Maybe it will solve the issue so he can ramp kekw

When I take the first feast I pull threat from charge, leap out charge again, then start my cooldowns so I have enough rage for all defensive etc…

Make him heal and get a second prot warri

Is this trinket good? For me, it's either this trinket or another 3/4 item set...

dusk socket
#

I am generally 88-95% on every fight for damage and 95-98 on healing as warrior for every fight, even with those numbers it would be hard to find a place that needs a tank

rocky briar
#

If I were you I'd say put the redirect (tricks etc) on the monk

#

Then say to monk to taunt before the liquefy then you swap back and it's gg

dusk socket
#

That would be the ideal scenario, I think they are giving him redirects and tricks. I am new to this team and the monk is their β€œboy”

But wait there all hero

yeah that's one

#

and there is no other ones

inner wren

there are certainly tank trinkets

I guess Im just failing to see how the aggression module is bad

tank trinkets you would willingly equip however

you got prime stat + big 50% absorb shield on a taunt

Thank you all for the information, and confirming what I feared.

#

Was double checking to make sure I wasn't crazy

rocky briar
#

What was your fear

dusk socket
#

That I was over threating him

young patio

going into higher keys gathering mobs just by pressing taunt you got a good shield and dmg absorb

rocky briar

but in reality he is underthreating himself

mandate atleast

tender reef
#

You don't run high keys either

#

What point is that

sweet summit

our main stat is strength but mandate has crit idk

inner wren
#

if its myth track its good enough for your weekly 10s bros

zenith gyro
#

Been running maxed heroic sacbrood and mark, both feel great as a tank, but can tell in the 11's and up that I may need a trinket based around survivability. I am throwing around the idea of dropping ravager and running BSV in the tougher keys.

tender reef
#

BSV yes

#

Tank trinkets no

young patio
#

Nobody of the top 3 tanks right now uses mandate

tender reef
#

Because is raid boss teinket

#

Lmao

young patio

and I am talking about 12+ keys as I timed all 11s

inner wren
#

you could go full mastery and be stam gemmed and have 2x throngus fingers and clear 10s with no issue

sweet summit
#

you'll be fine through 13s with sack and shard/mark
and you'll be fine in 12s without bsv that i can guarantee (unless you fuck up pretty hard but i don't like planning around failure)

tender reef
#

BSV is planning your healers failure

young patio
#

and in 12s I dont see how you would run mandate at all Im sorry, its not about ST dmg anymore but surviving

Hello, prot warriors. I come to you with an issue - what the hell to take from GV. These are the options. I mainly play m+ on this char (or at least plan too, cuz it's fresh-ish alt) it only sees raids as a booster on HC, so getting swarmlords from the boss or the mythic version is impossible.
