And that your rage bar gets lower

cyan bronze
#

it’s just low per press ig

#

idk I don’t agree entirely but he’s not fully wrong

round pendant
#

any rage spender does all that except the absorb

#

make revenge ogcd

#

idk man

#

IP feels meh to press, I press it cause it's optimal

#

Okay but spamming revenge will kill you

harsh trellis
#

It would be kind of cool if Prot had a similar talent like what fury has with whirlind, that say we hit thunderstrike the shield slam its all the targets

strong forum
#

That's your feedback

#

Ignore IP, die

#

Ignore revenge, you also die

round pendant
#

Hey I kinda like that idea

strong forum
#

The beauty is managing both

round pendant
#

but then it kinda ends up like druid I guess

cyan bronze
#

why didn’t they just increase rage cost by some % and then increase the effect of those abilities by the same %

#

that fixes apm

strong forum
#

There's many solutions to the problem

cyan bronze
#

why did the pick the worst nommy

round pendant
#

druid is press raze as much as you can while keeping ironfur at the bare minimum to live

cyan bronze
harsh trellis
#

Because people like to spam everything even if it doesnt proc

round pendant
#

if revenge was ogcd it'd be press revenge as much as possible while keeping IP up enough to live

Nerf rage gen from strategist procs

Why you guys talking about revenge off the gcd, when goal is to reduce apm?

cyan bronze
strong forum
#

It was literally 10-90 rage back in legion

cyan bronze
#

it should be current rage-current revenge cost(which ig doesn’t matter now)

Or 10-60, can't remember

but yeah sure it's blizzards reasoning but blizzard never knows what they're talking about when it comes to class balance decisions

#

Reducing cd of avatar and sw, healing you and keeping you alive is unimpactful

round pendant
#

god

cerulean tusk
#

But all the changes are driven by the purpose of reducing apm. Why discuss impact feel that is subjective?

cyan bronze
#

Just make revenge do so much dmg and bruvit work without ip up and revenge off gcd that it’s never worth to press ip

#

Fixed prot warrior

round pendant
#

I was simply talking about why the average player doesn't like prot warrior

#

it's not because of the APM but it could feel like that for them

cerulean tusk
#

Just put everything on GCD, and increase GCD to 2 sec. I solved the CPM issue

round pendant
#

since they don't understand the spec

#

I never said IP IS unimpactful

cerulean tusk
#

Never played FF, is that why they are doing it? To lure in those players?

cyan bronze
#

no they just have a long gcd

#

but more ogcd

#

I believe

harsh trellis
#

Wonder if the post was meant to put the prot warrior community into a tizzy to get feedback to try to figure out what to do lol.

cyan bronze
#

could of just made changes to thane and colossus independently

#

honestly

#

full spec changes are genuinely so bad for this spec

#

autocorrect is tweaking.

round pendant
#

I like IP and that spending rage reduces CDs and having lots of rage but I don't like how the rotation as it is railroads you into pressing IP since your SS/Tclap are up so often and you'd never press revenge over them. Not to mention it's happening CONSTANTLY so you have a natural minimum of like 15 CPM on IP lol

#

maybe I should just play colossus though

hardy snow
strong forum
#

The issue exists that we don't have any spenders besides revenge ip and execute yes

#

But

hardy snow
strong forum
#

The solution is a way bigger thing than just touching the current set of abilities we have

#

And nerfing strategist mid xpac is not ut

#

And then not give us a full rework like many other classes have received

hardy snow
#

Blizz can make "both sides" happy with Colossus being slower and Thane being faster, just make Colo more competetive in defense matter and Thane in offense

#

But that would require undesrtanding differences in both hero talents and how they impact rest of the spec

jagged gust
#

the answer is give prot rampage

round pendant
#

And my whole point was that a newer/worse player might see themselves spamming IP and not understand the CDR part of it and this is the majority of the feedback blizz receives

#

hence the shitty balancing ideas from blizz

stoic pilot
#

I was a little confused that warrior had more rage gen than at the end of an expansion with how thane was but I feel like I’d rather spam IP and hit shield slam and thunderclap more than spam revenge

strong forum
stoic pilot
#

This is coming from a non career prot warrior so maybe a “new player” take on it

strong forum
#

Colossus doesn't spam IP

#

Cuz they got an actually very powerful spender

round pendant
#

I feel like blizz gave up on hero talents like a month into the expac

#

lmao

stoic pilot
#

But Revenge actually feels like trash for thane

strong forum
#

They just didn't consider colossus at all

waxen frigate

Ya but wowhead says to play thane so colossus doesn’t exist for most players

Yeah you can see messages from me going back 2 years complaining about revenge sucking

stoic pilot

It just feels like revenge would benefit from being an ogcd as a spender

Or something

#

it just feels so clunky in the rotation

what about 2-charge revenge oGCD

and reskin it when in thane to be a lightning effect

#

and it goes ZAP

#

hardy snow
#

Btw. Blizz said "We feel that reducing Shield Slam’s prominence in the rotation will allow for Revenge and other abilities to fill the rotation and serve to consume excess Rage."
which "other abilities" they actually mean? Like they want us to use rage on slam or what?

stoic pilot
#

Got no clue

#

I scratched my head at that too

#

Speaking of stances is it just me or does battle stance just feel like a shell of what it was

#

It kinda feels stupid to just drop 16% dr for like 2% dmg increase

hardy snow
#

More like def stance just got stronger

#

so the diff isnt that much anymore

stoic pilot
#

It made more sense when dstance had a 5% modifier reduction on it

round pendant

They should just remove stances

stoic pilot

Yeah I know that’s kinda what I mean

Yeah I just wish it did a bit more

I never used dstance in DF

well other than for certain tankbusters

toxic pewter

did somebody say stances

strong forum
#

It's just a macro if you go back to ability limits

stoic pilot
#

stances would have to actually alter abilities or something to actually be a meaningful thing i feel

strong forum
#

If it's not a limit, we get DF

And if they're too shitty, we get tww

Okay but, logs

stoic pilot

if you want my opinion as someone who actually vets people for stream keys

strong forum

I don't invite pugs that arent atleast 4/8M

stoic pilot

if you’re inviting a meta player

#

you check logs

#

if you’re inviting off meta

#

io is more relevant

round pendant
#

yeah I wasn't in charge of forming those keys

stoic pilot
#

2700 off meta = well over 3k+ meta usually

#

ahh

strong forum

Honestly the 4/8M is already a good indicator, cuz any capable player who does care about the character does pug 4/8M

well our spriest put it into words

in df

he pugged into a full meta comp and went from having to use every defensive perfectly with us (no aug) to literally never having to disperse because their aug kept him alive permanently

am I insane in thinking if there's only one mob that's not grouped it's kinda fucking obvious?

old juniper

Seems obvious. I never have to specify with the DK I run with. It’s probably also a good idea to prioritize the crossbowman too since the mages can (and should) be kicked and are likely being focused first.

cerulean tusk

Just tell him to interrupt 1st mage and grip 2nd

Or use grip for the first add wave, abom for 2nd and grips for 3rd

hes just played a lot of bdk and it felt relatively fine in 12s-14s on ptr

hm

He justifies it with bdk needing the least healing lmao

the argument he brought is that the healing check is so high that the pulls will be small and the best tank will be the one the healer doesn't need to care

it hasn’t fundamentally changed and you don’t have a infinite parry button yet again

It also doesn’t matter until 11.1.5 balance changes anyway if your goal is just play the meta tank to push title

well shuffle comes from bok

If you miss a global (as many players do) you lose shuffle

it’ll be interesting playing non scalding brew again

super subjective, yes but what is currently the most fun dps class to play? Fun factor being the prio. Obviously dont want to be the bottom struggler but yeh.

tender cove
#

Fun being an engaging toolkit (sorta an answer to the problems), a rotation that is fulfilling (not clunky) and being an asset to, from raid cds, utility or just a fun group support

noob question, i see now both ally/horde players in my list, sorta like realms disapparead.

#

how does that work in practice? everything crossrealm and crossfaction now?

vocal cave
#

most things, non rated pvp and dungeon finder/lfr isnt crossfaction yet I believe

pallid quiver
#

World content and queued content are not cross-faction

Things have been cross-realm for a hot minute outside of Mythic raids, which iirc are now cross-realm from the start? Don't hold me to that one

# heavy sparrow are surviver hunters good or na

It isn't the worst. Of the melee DPS; only retribution, fdk, udk, enh, ass, sub and outlaw is better.
If you ask if you should bring one? Always pick the better player above class.
Still, there are better options spec wise

Idk I could be doing something wrong, I've done probably ~10 keys total as colossus but wowhead has TC under revenge in prio for colo

onyx vessel
#

Blame @strong forum he doesn't play colossus

#

Colossus is fun in raid other then when you instantly rip off cotank

tardy abyss
#

In terms of utility SV is really good and it deals more damage than some of the specs you mentioned

#

While also being fairly tanky

jagged pier
#

or too much demolish u maybe not sending at 10 stacks 🤔

pallid quiver
#

Bloodsurge + CDs + Outburst should be able to carry you, with Revenge providing the main amount of your survival via leech/bru vit value

#

In ST, since you're not getting stacks of demo from Revenge, as well as the lack of rage, is where TC starts to exist again

Know it's an m+ question rather than a warrior one, but what key level do you reckon doing the middle before the last boss in Arakara is?

I had a group last night tell me it was fine in an 11, and it was, but I haven't gone middle since I was doing like 9s so have no feel for it.

never go middle

its aids

left can be aids too if you get slowed by 400%

but as warrior you should be fine there

I understand they want to reduce the apm, at the same time aren't you afraid with more stats from S2 and S3 gear it would be near impossible to not waste rage ?

increase in stats next season wouldnt make the spec that much more wasteful than it is now

tardy abyss

tbh I don't even mind them reducing the apm that much, it's just that, as always, it's a half assed unclear rework which solve like 20% of the problems while introducing new ones

tardy abyss
#

Due to DR

ionic fern
#

It has gotten a lot better than what it was previously with the initial changes.
It's still worse than what it is currently, but strength wise it's getting there.
The gameplay just feels bad compared to now to me personally.

ionic fern
cerulean tusk

I wouldn't worry about performance metrics, they will get there. Question is solely on if you like the new gameplay pace or not

harsh trellis
#

no

urban bane
#

having dead globals could arguably be a performance metric as well as a gameplay pace issue

frozen berry
#

Colossus already has lulls on single target, so I imagine this will only be worse

urban bane
#

it isnt too different since you spend most of your rage on revenge anyway as colossus.

#

but just by feels on ptr it still is noticeably slower

#

like 60ish compared to 70ish cpm in a key for colo

jagged gust

60 feels too mellow

I enjoy the fast gameplay - smashing buttons,not having a empty GCD. Strategist nerf and the overall rage reduction messed all that up.

sharp gale
#

Empty gcd is always bad not matter which spec yeah

#

Staring at your own reflection

tribal wharf
#

pressing buttons fast, yes

#

mindlessly mashing buttons, no

#

92 or whatever the hell apm

#

approaching mindless brain rot

#

literally an input every 0.5 or 0.75 seconds

#

no room for thought in game play like that

jagged gust
#

I mean, have you ever played an instrument?

tardy abyss
#

We werent even pressing our buttons mindlessly

#

So I dont understand that comparison

jagged gust
#

Kinda similar concepts in terms of some people's interpretation of joy

devout basalt
#

is there a stance macro floating around that includes berserker?

sharp gale
#

Tbh it’s similar smashing as other melees spec, it’s just the buttons you smash cast a spell bc it’s an off gcd

#

You know everyone spam the next gcd during the gcd

#

So it’s more playing with fingers than smashing

What if they happened to only look at Squeak! logs for APM and made the decision based off of that sadge

cyan bronze
#

honestly we should all just edit logs to make our apm appear 30% slower so we get fixed(this is a JOKE do NOT do this this makes peoples jobs more ASS)

sharp gale
#

Logs apm are not keyboard apm

#

I think when blizz talks about apm, it’s the real physical apm

cerulean tusk
#

Why look at logs apm at all, as it includes procs and what not peepostudy

waxen frigate
#

Idk for prot warrior specifically rn though

sharp gale

Even if it didn’t include procs, it is not real apm

If you say so, rip DH 380 apm

Crit if col, versa if I wanna feel safer Vs magic dam

Thanks a lot 🙂

Pve M+ im playing

And i feel week sometimes especialy gb

#

Keys like 12 13

tardy abyss

Crit is completely fine for thane too

cerulean tusk
#

Playing m+, you do.
GB trucks tanks, but use spell reflect and stops correctly and it is a breeze

tardy abyss
#

Doesnt make a difference in terms of tankiness really

#

But just like Funky said, the few things that are really dangerous can be reflected

#

...as well as the enforcers if you think you can facetank 10 stacks keks

cerulean tusk
#

In a 13 you can facetank em just fine Hydrate just don't show your back at any point

My BDK cant even handle them well on a 10 sadge I just run away with DND

Stupid sexy white swings

#

if they buff the hell out of vampire survivor, im all in

#

not even i hate pwar, just, its been too long since i've been healer and wait times are too long as dps

so that really only leaves tank for what i play and enjoy

#

hunter was THE thing i was good at in BFA

#

dunno how or why, had never played a hunter till then

sharp gale
tribal wharf
#

yes, but same can be said for me with rogue and hunter

#

you get geared on one of those turn into killing machine

#

helped ALOT that i had heroic font and was troll for haste and crit mega buff

i could do the dual buff trinket and beseker racial

Tough choice this late into the season

#

Cause everything gunna be replaced in like 5 weeks

Depends what you goal is i suppose till the end of the season

heavy yoke

tanking keys mostly

jagged pier
#

Shield then or trinket for damage

heavy yoke
#

yeah i guess its a shorter window than i realized

#

s2 is like what end of feb?

jagged pier
#

Patch probably early march due to raid testing being dealyed

#

Plundy ends late feb as well

#

So second week of march i suppose

#

Would be my guess for season start

hardy snow
#

3k r.io is what level of keys?

plush tendon
#

12s?

jagged gust
#

all 10s is like 2600, 400io from 2 levels?

#

maybe that does sound right, like 25io per individual key level

plush tendon
#

hmm, might be some 13s

#

idk

tribal wharf
#

this is why im good at hunter

#

same game play, did same with amazon on d2r

plush tendon
#

ok, so all 12s is like 2960

#

so all 12s and a handful of 13s

hardy snow
#

gonna push two and a half lvls more next season then okayge

plush tendon
#

its worth pushing

#

if you can do those higher keys

#

you get more gilded crests

jagged gust
#

also, you get to pad way harder

#

when trash lives long enough for TR to tick

hardy snow
#

I've found guy on r.io that has 2999,9, so it looks like half of dungeons must be +13 in a decent time

cyan bronze
#

Or the week after

hardy snow
#

I guess patch on 26.02 and season week later

cyan bronze
#

they are prob going to wait for tw to end

#

& then give a grace period week

#

then patch, then season

tribal wharf
#

all of those keys are attrocius to run

#

the ones he needs

#

unless he wants to do 14 mists prolly easiest

sharp gale
#

Would they announce a raid date less than 1 month before?

tardy abyss
#

Theyre all ez

tribal wharf
#

siege and ara seem harder to time due to time length requirement

#

cuz you got extra pulls, extra boss

#

HARD pulls,

tardy abyss

Ara is by far the easiest dungeon this season

#

wdym

#

Like its not even close

tribal wharf
#

i wasnt much a fan of running that one

tardy abyss
#

You can full wipe 3x and still time it

hardy snow
# cyan bronze & then give a grace period week

yea, no way they start season when event is still going, the only question is if they do empty period between event and patch, or not, and if they do - how long it will be, a week or maybe two

cyan bronze
#

Historically they have

tribal wharf
#

next month, it dropped in +4 first keystone i ran

#

we are going to roll off your trinket, mr tank guy

#

all 4 of us have decided to roll for it and if you lose too bad give it to us

this 1st boss trinket thing was hilarious at begining of season/preseason

i swear i wish i had the footage of them rolling it

still a month off probably tho

cerulean tusk

Noone knows for sure, we guess mid-early january; notes gets dropped sporadically today/tomorrow

january I say, february

jagged gust

11.1 is either the week plunder ends, so feb 25th, or the week after, then S1 starts 1-2 weeks after that

jagged pier

it will be the week after plundy most likely

urban portal

just in time for monster hunter wilds

or the week after terbulent timeways end which i think is the same week

cerulean tusk

Just in overall mythic + viability

You don’t want to be like guardian Druid

I just saw a lot of people dooming about how bad prot was in ptr so I know it’s a low bar but I just want it to not be completely awful lol

dark barn

I was thinking that brewmaster could surpass prot perfomance next season in both M+ and raid. I play a lot of brewmaster too and cant decide next main

sharp gale
#

Brew is god raid tank tbh

#

It is tuned toward raid, that’s why it is awful in m+

abstract iris
#

Also I was curious how frequent stuns are in mythic + environment, I was maybe going to do orc for stun resistance because when I was leveling tanking in timewalking dungeons stunning was prevalent, is it relevant in mythic + or very rarely?

dark barn
#

Stuns are very rare i play human and almost dont use my racial

sharp gale
#

Really unusual to be stunned and it’s not an AoE you can dodge or smth you can prevent

#

Bc tank stunned = tank dead usually

cerulean tusk
dark barn

Saw a lot of 3 seconds stuns that can be avoidable. Not something problematic

sharp gale
#

And just : dwarf racial

Instead, once a player has finished all eight seasonal dungeons at Mythic 12 within the timer, their keystone will no longer automatically delevel below 12; once a player has timed all dungeons at Mythic 13, the new floor will be 13; and so on for all key levels at or above 12.
