I should like it less than I do but the first pull into boss was so much fun

Just like 3rd boss on freehold back in the day

Ya but that was a big pull into 3 bosses! Thats like 38% better than normal

demolish

#

Pressed it at the wrong time and got ate by the trash near arakara last boss 😦

#

but idk if it's actually considered a channel and whether or not we can cancelaura it

You can leap out of it iirc

naw dont cancel it

not wurf for the parse

hey guys, quick question: what talent/spell do prot pals use at queen ansurekt, to remove roots?

vocal cave
#

freedom?

blissful nexus
#

nah, not an external

vocal cave
#

it is freedom

torn gulch
#

Isn't t there a talent that makes it an external as well as on the pally?

urban portal
#

Yeah

blissful nexus
#

yy sure, but my guidl told me that the prot war can do it on his own. with leap/chrage/whatever...

#

and i cant find a taltent for it

urban portal
#

Avatar can remove roots

tardy abyss
#

For war

#

y sure, but not every root no?

vocal cave
#

spell reflect

you spell reflect the root there

blissful nexus
#

if there is a talent on slayer it makes sense

vocal cave
#

but you asked for prot pally

torn gulch
#

Yea you asked for prot paladin

#

Unless you meant pals as prot warrior comrades in this discord

but its spell reflect, thats the answer for it. thank you!

first one is okay since its just arrows and horse back men and rifles/cannons

it costs 500USD for just the unit alone, this is about the good version, the pro version, FPGA i think its called.

but it plays basically the everything

Anyone test out the PTR lately. How's the feel of prot now.

A lot better than initially.

almost better than live

That's good to hear. I don't plan on swapping but the changes definitely seem like a buzz kill

#

its all better now

#

we're almost back to square 1 except we got some dmg buffs and IP is 30% bigger

So what's the pull look like now to get IP running? Is it still sw on pull?

anyone have any recommended addons or WA's for tracking threat?

strong forum
#

coloured nameplates

small steeple
lilac jetty
# strong forum coloured nameplates

Yeah i do use those, but was looking for something with more info. Maybe something that plays a sound when the nameplate would change color would be good. I tried omen threat meter but it does not look good imo and the options panel was not opening at all for me - may be user error though.

chilly brook
#

aggro shouldn't be a major concern

lilac jetty
#

i mean most of the time it isnt but if i pull aggro off my cotank at the wrong time i just die, so looking for better way to make sure that doesnt happen

small steeple
harsh trellis
#

No need for more information you should have aggro with a thunderclap and a revenge

small steeple
#

or Jundie's plater. I prefer it much more

I run a details window for threat with my co tank

I prefer it over omen

small steeple
harsh trellis
#

My co tank bud is a dk. As thane. No issues.. if I go full colossus nerd rage I can rip aggro.

small steeple
#

I main dk, dk does great single target damage when played well

lilac jetty
harsh trellis
#

Oh ok that

#

You need to just let him taunt and just run out ahead and back off some

#

Just a second or 2

#

I know what you're referring to

#

If you're starting... (I usually start) I know that first taunt struggle if you're going ham

lilac jetty
#

yeah, definitely better to hold some globals then pull threat, i was just asking for a better way to track it then just waiting for the nameplate to change color (which im sure is still fine either way). thanks for the details suggestion

harsh trellis
#

I usually just go off to the side and wait for my puddle

lilac jetty
#

Yeah i start, so i take the liquefy, and if i pull aggro with it im just dead to a melee

harsh trellis
#

Yeah so you take liquify and they taunt. Just lay back some

vocal cave
#

Dk has very long setup on pull

#

if you zug zug pull you will break aggro

urban portal
#

then just get the first taunt

#

if your co tank is ripping after about 30 seconds into the pull then hes just not playing the game

vocal cave
#

and if dk is taking liquify he need to pop defensives in his setup too

plush tendon
#

Im assuming this is for queen prog

#

we tried both DK taking liquidfy and War taking feast and vice versa; we found that DK taking Feast and War taking liquidfy was better

tardy abyss
#

That sounds lowkey wrong

plush tendon
#

DK is pretty good at feast

#

and Warrior mitagates a lot from liquidfy

lilac jetty
#

yea queen, but still happens on reclear. And yea warrior takes basically no damage from liquefy with spell block

plush tendon
#

also, you shouldnt be pulling aggro

#

we had the opposite problem for a bit...

#

when I was taking liquidfy (I play BDK in raid)

lilac jetty
plush tendon
#

what I said

#

you shouldnt be able to pull aggro off your co-tank

#

unless they are playing their rotation wrong

vocal cave
#

I can easily see dh or war pulling aggro off dk on pull

small steeple
vocal cave
#

30 sec into the fight not likely tho

lilac jetty
#

its 10-15 sec into the fight

small steeple
#

bdk has 3 taunts,

#

dark command and 2 from the grip

plush tendon
#

but 10 seconds in, no way

vocal cave
#

I'd say DB takes up to 10-15 sec to establish threath

#

tbh

#

until mark explodes

small steeple
#

bdk sholdn't be playing DB in raid rn, and drw should be enough to establish threat

#

unless you really need the extra survivability

#

DB is perfectly fine in raid

with that you can also have avatar for every single demolish

hardy snow
#

tier still doesnt proc avatar via IO? sadge

strong forum
#

ofc not

small steeple
errant oriole
#

so next season if we run immovable object wouldn't that be less rage with colossus even though get extra DR or am I being dumb?

mighty valley
#

sure it’s less rage but not a ton less

#

the other option gives you a few more casts of tc for 5 more rage each

#

plus we’ll be casting avatar slightly less often with the overall rage decrease

errant oriole
#

true true ok makes sense

strong forum
#

no other option in the 3rd gate gives as much value to colossus as IO does

#

UF does barely anything as colossus
and Spear/Roar without extra talents doesnt do great either

placid frigate
#

How's Prot War looking compared to Brew next season?

ionic nimbus
placid frigate
#

M+

cerulean tusk
#

No clue about brew, so can't compare them. But warr as is, do look quite strong.
If tanks struggle to live and interrupt spam isn't needed, then war will likely be up there if not at the top

ionic nimbus
#

Warri will always have the same problems in m+, we r not giving that much to the group

#

We r literally tanks, that can survive a lot (except of bleeds, fml). But there are few reasons to take the warrior

#

Monk has some cool things like ring, but you will see a lot MW next season. So BM won’t be favored as well. But Monk can really go Nuts DPS-wise

sweet summit
#

if warrior does more damage it's better
if it doesn't it's not

#

hope this helps

jagged pier
#

4-5 stops a party buff and a party cd is quite a lot

#

monk has 4 stops including ring

#

and no party cd

#

its buff is also slightly worse than ours arguably

chilly brook
#

The tank that lives and does the most damage is the king. There’s only been like two times in what I can remember where that hasn’t dictated the meta.

  1. legion bdk
  2. DF DH
jagged pier
#

Well or provides stupid stuff

#

Like dh in df where no one else had to inturpt

#

It also did do damage yes

#

But dont forgor the best other specs were all magic too so thats just a flat 5% more damage just having a dh

#

Its sometimes it enables more damage, if dh wasnt top damage in df it would probably still be olayed tbh

ionic nimbus
#

Tbh pala is not meta of it’s dmg, it’s meta cause it can handle discs weak spots

#

Out of Wings Pala DPS is not outstanding

#

Tank dps only matters when top teams are reaching their borders, pala was meta months before it’s DPS would decide to time keys

sweet summit
#

pala became meta before disc no?

#

disc was a later evolution of the meta or?

chilly brook
chilly brook
#

It was meta before disc

#

It also does/did head and shoulders more damage than every other tank

#

It also just lives pulls that other tanks can’t

dense remnant
#

And disc covers the rest of the weakness of the spec

sweet summit
#

and brings more damage than other healers

#

when you don't need your healer to bring lust

lofty warren

dang bottom tier next patch

cerulean tusk
#

random tierlists are best tierlists

jagged pier

random tier lists from ppl that dont know the spec and probably havent tested since the first iteration because theyve just been pushing keys on ptr with the 'meta' specs

For s1 I still laugh for the dudes who rerolled bdk the first weeks just by following raider io stats

sweet summit
#

don't think i did a single +10 or above in s1 bfa erga

sharp gale
#

If I recall my highest was a 13 (I started in bfa launch)

#

But there was the worst affix they ever did

#

The ghuunies

pallid quiver
#

I will never not laugh at that name

tribal wharf
#

ghuunies was easy

#

but i was cow and have cow stomp

#

so, dude gets low, hes marked, 2 ghuunies appear, i cow stomp them, group gets on them and finish them off with stun DR and other cc

#

it was an affix that was more scary in the mind and on the paper

#

as compared to in the game, and in the logs

#

i think some times it made the monster it affected alot stronger and that could be problematic like if it was some caster in AD the ones at priestess that do fuck loads of dmg

Man how I wish tier lists never existed

#

Let people play what they want to play

pallid quiver
#

In the end, I think it ties back to people wanting to feel good at something, so they look an instant crutches like meta and tierlists to view themselves as knowledgeable and good at the game as a whole

tribal wharf
#

well, to be fair

#

this sort of thing has been going on since nes and even before that like, baseball as a kid

pallid quiver
#

you can tell by how elitist people act without understanding why people put things in tiers, anyway, especially in fight game land

So I got lost in a CoT today, after third boss I walked out the wrong side and clear all the way back to the entrance before I realized what was going on

# dusky canopy Man how I wish tier lists never existed

In DF S1 our BM Hunter was legit putting out top 100 in the world parses. When we started doing Mythic prog, one of the officers latched onto him and kept trying to say we weren't downing bosses because "Why do we even have a BM hunter, they're fucking F tier." Meanwhile, half our DPS was grey parsing (including the officer). But he was grey parsing on a meta spec so that's okay lol

dusky canopy

im uploading video of some boomer pc game looks like it was on xbox original , shadowgrounds youtube, maybe upload doom again, dunno

dusky canopy
shrewd grove
#

Yezzir. He's no longer an officer, thankfully

tribal wharf
#

is like twin stick alien survival thing

#

BM hunter is really strong cuz pet attack

mortal cypress
#

I finally got a decent shield...on a scale of 1 to 5 how bad will I find tanking on warrior when i usually do druid or DH?

tribal wharf
#

its a pain to keep them at the boss and having the pet use cd on cd, not on whenever the fuck it wants to recast it, so it goes off every 10 seconds instead of 4

#

cuz they have to path to the boss as well

#

so you lose dps like that

#

i liked the dual pets 1 main pet with a secondary rather

#

but, the pets have a purge, a run speed, or like some dr utility, or a stun and its GREAT

jagged gust
mortal cypress
#

was looking for a way to get more gear for dps

jagged gust
#

Honestly the apm ain't bad, like 15% of it is pressing IP

mortal cypress
#

Do you know if its worse than outlaw? That spec broke me....after 15mins I quit the M+ and had to put my hands in ice

jagged gust
#

Far easier imo, outlaw is my fav

mortal cypress
#

Make a macro for IP and it'll save your hands a ton

cyan bronze
#

ip on scrollwheel is nice

#

👍

jagged gust
#

What I do is put IP on a keybind on my mouse, and my rotation is on the keyboard with my left hand, so you split the apm up between hands and it's downright reasonable

shrewd grove
#

You can also just do the IP/SS macro

mortal cypress
#

Im just starting to read wowhead, but is either hero tree slower/less apm? I dont care about performance at my level

#

Arms stonks going up next season. Gonna be fun

mortal cypress
#

I used to say "i couldnt care if my char was a white cube, ill always play the best spec....."but then I got bad rsi and ended up on hunter.....and then tried fury cos alts are so easy to level now, and the angry person with 2 giant 2 handers is super fun even if its not topping the dps

#

but getting into groups, even low ones, is not so fun

shrewd grove
#

Start your own groups. No one cares what spec the group lead is

#

I was doing 8s on a sub-600 ilvl rogue

You see it more in raid than keys also, to be fair

DO most people just pug mythic now too?

pallid quiver

you don't pug mythic ansurek or something

jagged gust

nah, 1 wipe quitters is a fact of life in pugs

pallid quiver
#

Even better if they have zero idea of the mechs on a boss

#

and were the cause of the wipe

mortal cypress
#

I remember being in a M+....like +5 or something, and the tank was going crazy telling people to stop "taking the balls" because he needed them as a tank

#

guy didnt realise it buffed the entire group

yo on the topic of bad tanks

I've seen Prot Wars die through BSV on timewalking this week

then he got slaughtered by the artillery in siege like 3 times

#

which dungeon is bsv? Im bad with acronyms

jagged gust

#

battlescarred veteran

shrewd grove
#

BSV is a "cheat death" talent. Not a real cheat death, and if you take it on Prot its basically confirmation you're playing wrong

mortal cypress
#

oh, then im even worse on that....in fury channel they have to spell out each time they use an acronymn....im dumber than a rock

shrewd grove

Absolute waste of a talent point

jagged gust

I was the bad tank today keks

#

24 deaths total in CoT, pulled a double swarmlord second pull, I lived but the group combo wiped, wiped eating a stun at .5% on the first boss, accidentally cleared both hallways before last boss because I got turned around

#

Still timed an 11

#

That healer must have me on a list by now

shrewd grove
#

Bahahaha. I just know that healer was yelling

mortal cypress
# jagged gust Still timed an 11

Thats the other thing in M+....people leave way too early, and you can usually eat a lot of mess ups unless you are trying to push a super high key with bad gear

cerulean tusk
# shrewd grove Absolute waste of a talent point

It is a great safety blanket for when DPS dont interupt those bolts and healer is overwhelmed fixing misstakes happening left, right and center.

So don't handwave it away. It got its place as a safety blanket.

mortal cypress
#

I really dont like M+

shrewd grove
cerulean tusk
#

Even so, when you reach that 30% tresh-hold, the guarenteed return to 100% is a godsend for many a stressed healer

pallid quiver
#

You're effectively unkillable when it procs, and it's good for ensuring you don't die in things like very high M+. It's technically not optimal even then and not needed,

#

but playing optimal prot war is not gonna make you time your +18

#

it is not a good choice in timewalking dungeons

mortal cypress
#

id be happy to do a +5 or 6 lol

pallid quiver
#

if you're dying with it in timewalking,

#

what is even happening

jagged gust
#

5 or 6 is kind of hard in it's own right if you don't overgear it

mortal cypress

#

just because you're in a very deep pool of less experienced players, some encounters have a little more difficulty stacked on em

If I had a regular group with healers who I trusted/played even higher keys it could be dropped though.

Negative rage wasted???

pallid quiver
#

I believe MRT's autologging function does this as an example?

#

so in an M+ dungeon, where there's multiple bosses

#

you just... stop logging because it said so

Since the log ends as first boss goes down, I'm pretty positive that's your case

#

Hello! In the FAQ it says to go into the fray once shield block uptime isnt an issue no more. Is that aimed at just me being able to hold it due to rotation or is there a gear / haste related reason for that?

dusky canopy
#

Haste related

#

When you get enough haste you no longer need HR to achieve 100% block uptime

misty charm
#

how much haste would that be?

dusky canopy
#

About 35% before talenting ITF

misty charm
#

oh damn

dusky canopy
#

Yeah this spec heavily enjoys haste

#

You want haste on pretty much every slot possible

misty charm
#

i reckon even enchanting it

dusky canopy
#

Totally!

#

At a certain point simming will favor other stats

#

But simming will want haste for a while

makes sense with DRs etc

tyler 1 died in hc wow im learning lol

in the raid

dont really keep up with it, but tune in if theres big moments like that

this is precisely the situation i mean you can be rezzed like, once a month basically

mighty valley
#

that would kind of take the point out of hardcore, wouldn’t it

tribal wharf
#

what it is right now is brutalist

#

lets be real

#

even in doom nightmare you still stand a chance and can respawn if you want to , probably wouldnt want to

#

you have precious seconds to res them........... or not............ and they can rp bleed out

#

and then if they die again in some time peroid, 12 hours to 30 days you just die

#

now you are a risk to be bring into dungeon and raid

#

shit writes itself

jagged gust
#

Monthly raids

mighty valley
#

yeah people would just park their character for a month to wait out the timer

#

very boring

dusky canopy
#

Nah I’d just let hardcore be hardcore

#

No safety nets

#

They already got the potion or whatever it is that prevents a death

#

Doesn’t need to be anymore than that

urban bane
#

Yeah, not sure why it needs to be different. The high risk and punishment is the point.

tribal wharf
#

nono

#

i just mean like, the debuff, its like a horrific thing to have

#

not its a 1 month per raid

#

its like that if you fuck up

and the things you would expect would kill you, kill you, like, to the banish/exile zone

probably a skill issue

Tanks are doing less relative to dps than live yes

The point of a tank is too pull and hold threat and not die

And do damage

Nah not my problem

It's OK colossus meta s2 so We can win on prio targets copium

Actually from the looks of it, blizz is trying to have roles set in stone more, kinda like it was back in the days where tanks were there to get hit and survive, and not coint into the dps plateaus to go higher keys or makd dps checks

idc how much dps they want us doing relative to dps

#

you still have to do damage

or you're just griefing

Since it's not exactly hard to do damage AND live

Seems like we're gonna be keeping that 25% devastator buff

i will gladly all ight and day in original and modern doom play on ultraviolence or nightmare, but never ultra nightmare fuck you cant respawn AT ALL

#

there is a fine line between extremely challenging and fuck you

#

hc wow is just straight up ultra nightmare mode

#

you have ZERO chnance to come back, in a game where paladins have a button kills them and hunter fd can resist and kill hunter, and a bunch of res spells for healers, who can never cast it

#

and like i say, there should be penalties for casting it or taking the rez in first place, if you didnt get head chopped off or eaten whole by dragon or took more than 90% of health towards dying (falling, enraged boss)

#

something like, you have 2 charges of rez spell, and it takes 24 hours to recharge 1 single rez, could use both if really want to

#

at the very least, it gives the player rp time to bleed out in a field after being ambushed by wolves or a bear. and he realizes rogue cant res him so pays respects to rogue, or curses him, either or.

hardy snow
#

there is easier solution

#

if you don't like hardcore losing character - don't play it

tribal wharf
#

i think you miss the point im trying to convey

#

i dont mind that, i just think its bullshit that its one blink of the eye, not paying attention and then its totally irreversably at all over

#

its not like you like,break your arm and then you immdiately die

#

i would go as far to say can only be rezzed succesfully up to 3 times

#

if you are extremely lucky

#

once is pretty much garunteed unless you are total idiot and crushed by boulder

toxic gyro
#

No one cares. Also you don’t like the idea of hardcore classic don’t play.
You can also host your own classic server with whatever ideas you have and play it yourself.

tribal wharf
#

well then i have to learn to code

#

so that aint happenin

#

i just think that i am right on that, not going to stop thinking like that

toxic gyro
#

You’re not, but it’s a free world, you can think whatever you like.

tribal wharf
#

i think that my vision of it is unfathomably based

#

thats the only way i can put it simply

toxic gyro
#

Your vision defeats purpose of “hardcore”. In every game in hardcore death means the end of character.

tribal wharf
#

its not like in formula 1 car crashes and they give up, no, they fix the damn car and get back on the track and racing

#

i think your still seeing it wrong then, when i say can be rezzed like 3 times

#

this is like, 3 times total, ever

#

and thats if it even happens

#

or is capable of happening

toxic gyro

I’m done here.

WHY ARE THERE NO F CONTINUES

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

cerulean tusk

I wouldnt know why they would not put a continue button in for doom

#

Ask the devs

tribal wharf
#

u never played doom games?

#

this.... is unforgivable.....

#

do you side with the demons?

#

because i only side against demon kind

dense remnant
#

is there any decent streamer to watch doing some higher m+? either youtube or twitch

tribal wharf
#

but, i mean, in doom eternal, there is a ultra nightmare setting

#

you die ITS OVER

#

it deletes your save game

#

doesnt matter if you are all the way to final boss

#

the game deletes your save

#

cant get extra lives

cerulean tusk
#

And you want 3 continues for that?

tribal wharf
#

thats what the skill just above it BASICALLY is, but not really

#

you still have continues, but you have 3 lives

dense remnant
#

i havent read the whole thing, but is deathray44's point really just to not make hardcore be actually hardcore, but instead he wants to get a semi-hardcore playmode?

cerulean tusk
#

I have no idea, I expect it to be about doom

tribal wharf
#

nightmare = mythic raiding, ultra nightmare = hard core mythic raiding

cerulean tusk
#

So you want mythic raiding where if you die 3 times, you are gone forever, in WoW?

tribal wharf
#

i think thats what hc should have been from the get go

#

and then there is ultra nightmare hc wow servers

#

if you REALLY want to play that

cerulean tusk
#

Ah, so you really on about that you want extra lives for hardcore?

dense remnant
#

thats a fair enough point of view to have tbf, as long as you dont expect everyone to share your opinion

#

but i think the amount of ppl playing hardcore proves that its not a big deal for many ppl

tribal wharf
#

yes, but no, it feels really cheap you played 350 hours and then idiot tank butt pulls and then 18 seconds later, even though you try hardest.... dead.....

#

cant do anything any more

cerulean tusk
#

That is the game and the pull of it tho

tribal wharf
#

and i truly believe that knife is too sharp for many

#

so they dont touch it

cerulean tusk
#

Then dont play hardcore?

#

I fail to see the problem here

dense remnant
#

think he's saying that there's a gap in the market

#

but personally i dont think that gap is that big

cerulean tusk
#

A hidden market for ppl who want hardcore, but not really, they just want to have a feel of risk, but being at any?

#

That would be very very niche

dense remnant
#

a small risk, yes

tribal wharf
#

hard core minus if you would

cerulean tusk
#

Softcore

dense remnant
#

ye, thats a small niche

#

think you can find better games suited for that

cerulean tusk
#

I mean, some ppl play WoW for pet battles, so sure - if it makes sense making a WoW shard for those 100 or so ppl

#

why not

tribal wharf
#

i never played wow hc but i have to imagine it feels horrible to die on it

cerulean tusk
#

Well, try it

#

Find out firsthand

tribal wharf
#

nahh

#

i would die at lvl 18 to a caster

#

i already know

cerulean tusk
#

Then you go again; that is the idea of the gameplay loop

dense remnant
#

i dont like hardcore in any game, dont like the risk of losing the things i enjoyed farming for

#

so i dont play them

#

but im sure there are games that punish you for dying/failing enough to make you wanna avoid it

#

but ye, anyone got a recommendation of some prot warrior m+ gameplay?

cerulean tusk

Hm, not really. You checked Rio leadboards and the player's individual registered streams/channels?

Maybe I'm just super stupid, but do we have a way to deal with Zekvir's both heal cast and Enfeebling Spittle? Sometimes I see that if I interrupt one, can't deal with the other due to pummel CD (except Brann saving me ocasionally), and I'm using Pummel with 13s

Just only kick his heal

let brann get the others

rotund wyvern

Yeah, but Enfeebling Spittle wrecks me whenever Brann doesn't kick it

storm stone
#

how safe do yall take your m+ pulls

#

cuz in grim batol and stonevault in particular i just notice

#

even really high DPS groups

cerulean tusk
#

It comes with experience, but you quickly get a feel from the first one or two pulls. In Grim, do people interupt the adds and help to gather them downstairs for the patrol pull? If no - they wont be helpful. Do small pulls. Do they? Then you safe to do the next gigapull.
In vault, you do the first corridor, do they interupt and stop casts? If so, same as Grim - go big or small from there on based on this information.

#

A rule of thumb is: Can you presume the casters will be stopped? If so, pull as much as you can. If no, split even pulls you usually would concider to do as one.

#

Just mark the casters with skull, the DPS kill them, then chain into next casters.

#

Repeat.

i feel like i have to child* proof it or we wipe

In order for us to not be able to do title keys, they'd need to do things like remove pummel, storm bolt, shockwave,

If you play premade tho, there is no way you wouldn't be able to reach title range because of you playing prot warrior. That problem would have another whole root.

Ye, PuGing title is doable. Just a lot more work. Once you get to the 0.1% mark, you see alot of the same names - and it is less "pug" PuGing, as you do get to know ppl over time
So if you done your job the way up, there is a chance that effort networking and gaming will pay off in getting brought from impressions given earlier.

pugging gets easier the higher you go

#

its a cesspool around, wherever the breakpoint is, maybe 15 maybe 16 and below people who either arent good enough or didnt put in a lot of time yet who are "stuck"

#

but around 17/18 usually everyone kinda knows what do to, whats the usual play etc etc

#

it is not directly correlated to "invites per hour" but getting an invite is not the hard part of pugging its just time consuming, its doing the key

#

in lower ranks you might get invites faster, but the failure rate and toxicity quickly rises aswell because people quickly develop Egos or blame entirely wrong things

this doesnt disappear at higher ranks, but atleast from my experience theres way way less yapping and pointing fingers. Just people playing the game

i tried something different in the +11, went way back to the right before first boss, there is another buff there and a whole shit ton of casters, wouldn't recommend either

only good way is to skip

anything else is suffering

the only thing you need in cot

is to skip before 1st boss

Once youre really used to the spec you dont need it until at least +16

#

Given you have a healer with functioning eyes

jagged pier
#

your sending them on TB and unbuffed thunderclap more than SS

hollow patio
#

Yeah I am not tracking that at all

jagged pier
#

well your just missing out on rage

#

and damage

#

so thats dumb

#

and your gunna struggle even more next season if you dont as you will just generate less

#

its even more important you pretty much send it on SS next patch

chilly brook

#

Imo just more efficient to skip that pack

tardy abyss
#

Never had issues with it dunno

#

Spell Block is just incredibly op

hollow patio
chilly brook
#

Not necessarily dangerous

#

Just annoying

#

Especially with how many people could purge him but don’t

tardy abyss

they dont read eu forums

are the new 11.1 prot changes enough to get people to reroll? all i see is that we are only gonna do less damage, less durability, and less fun. thats it. /s

small steeple
#

is /s serious or sarcasm?

#

But mountain thane will be relative weaker, and col will be realative stronger

I heard it's colossus stonks now

#

?

#

It's up to 25%.

#

That's it.

topaz latch
#

oh

#

from 20%?

#

from the original 30%?

jagged pier
#

devastator was always 20%

#

strategist was 30%

#

they are now both 25%

#

but if u get you rinfo from tier lists and vids, its likely most of those ppl have made them based off the first iteration

#

off the changes so its not even accurate

topaz latch
#

eh, doesnt seem too much of a deal compared to other changes.

torn gulch
#

it is

#

that change combined with the 30% buff to ignore pain makes us decent again

#

we'll have to pay more attention to rage spending but it is what it is

pallid quiver
#

Notably, it's a buff to devastator; on live, devastator is only 20%

torn gulch
#

a 5% increase on auto-attacks to reset Shield Slam is pretty huge

heavy sparrow

#

I haven't played it extensively to see how bad is the rage problem on colossus someone might be able to shine more light on that

torn gulch
#

but damage wise it's pretty good

ionic fern
#

But as always, it comes at the cost of survivability.

#

It's not as bad as previously since you play IO now as Colossus.

#
  • the tier set.
#

Provides a decent up-time on SW.

cyan bronze
#

is it even less tanky than Thane now

ionic fern
#

Colossus? No.

cyan bronze
#

myb mistyped

#

meant thane

#

not live

tribal wharf
#

we dont gunna take DA with io huh? , shared with IW which i believe is still crucial to us

pallid quiver
#

Imp Wall is dead, Yogi

tribal wharf
#

huh, well, times really do change i guess

pallid quiver
#

They removed the rage gen to it and reduced SW's base CD, making it both give you less rage to reset the CD with and having its CDR not be as competitive with double wall

#

Double Wall is just flat out better in all situations now

tribal wharf
#

that was what we basically played around since 8.0 feels like :S

#

do more ss or tc or revenges depending on patch

#

to get more ss to do more X

#

and it was +4 rage so,

#

i guess this is for collo cuz thane is effectively dead for like keys and whatever

#

i think i heard thats gutted

sharp gale
#

You still are a prot warrior / a tank you can do whatever key you will ever do it will be easy to tag and to do

tribal wharf
#

ya i havent played for while, might like to return some day, just i dunno

sharp gale
#

It’s not like colo deletes shield block

tribal wharf
#

there was some 25% nerf then then reverted it or something like

torn gulch
#

you can't be serious
