Like 30-35% with itf

#

It'll likely drop with tier

#

Not sure by how much, but less

#

god I can't wait for tier

#

shield charge CDR Is gonna be so nice

dusky canopy
#

hey arent we supposed to get a 2nd cata charge at 2k achieve?

hot shale
#

That’s where I’m struggling, I mostly use 1-6 plus the same keys with the shift 1-6 then have 3 buttons on my mouse

long bronze
#

I personally have to be super careful about modifiers on my spam buttons

hot shale
#

R t f g as well I use but that’s only 19 keys total

long bronze
#

like shift 1,2,3 are banned

#

for things that matter

hot shale
#

Just accidentally yeet something with them?

#

I did something similar with rallying cry earlier 😅

long bronze
#

cuz I'll be mashing 1 for SS and if I shift-somethinng I'll certainly also hit shift-1

unborn island
#

What are people crafting first? Weapon or shield...and presumably best is to wait until after seeing what's in vault?

hollow tusk
#

ive played with charge on 1 forever, now i feel so dumb that i cant use it for smth else

lusty grotto
#

SS is always prio

vague abyss
#

honestly idk, i got lucky with a one handed axe, so i would probably craft shield next week depending of what the vault gives

@strong forum for raid, any fight that has more than 1 target go col right? And no point not going execute if it’s not mythic difficulty right? So that leaves Mug, Gallyix and one other to do as thane right?

Just felt like way too many different buttons

#

Isn’t Rik pure single target? Or does he have adds spawn?That’s why I’m asking.

long bronze
#

rik has adds

#

the bomb barrels

hot shale
#

First dungeon I didn’t even use shield block for the first half because I am an ape

pallid quiver
#

Colo and Thane are also fairly close in ST if Execute isn't major

small steeple
#

Execute on thane in st is higher yeah?

long bronze
#

thane just feels safer due to the extra rage, but col is going to do more damage, probably

#

it is yeah, but not like massively

small steeple
pallid quiver
#

It is, but if the phase isn't long or no damage amps, it won't have time to be better

#

I have not capped as much cause of spamming revenge. Sometimes I totally forget about IP, prob not a good thing

SB is a damage cd

hot shale
#

I’m going to slam some more keys after work and hopefully get my head around it

#

See how many guild healers I can break

long bronze
#

at least you're trying to improve which puts you in a better spot than some

#

set a goal of maximizing SB uptime and see how you do

hot shale
#

I need to get some weak auras to, haven’t done that yet. Mostly just getting used to the abilities

long bronze
#

and don't forget liberal use of shield wall, at least keep one charge on CD if nothing else

hot shale
lusty grotto
#

nah

#

focus on shield block

long bronze
#

ignore pain is a stretch goal

hot shale
#

Ahh I see I see

long bronze
#

the 2nd you use an ignore pain that should have been a shield block you're net negative

hot shale
#

Oh really

#

It’s that big?

long bronze
#

shield block is the best active mitigation in the gam elol

#

obviously not for magic damage

hot shale
#

So pretty important

urban portal
hot shale
long bronze
#

shield block both increases your damage output via shield slam, and massively reduces incoming physical damage, and even magic damage when you spell block in addition to shield block. You should have as close to 100% uptime as possible

#

what you're looking for in logs in "blocked hits" under melee damage taken

#

for figuring out your effective uptime

hot shale
#

Roger

#

I’ll focus on that tonight

#

Thanks for the help guys, much appreciated

#

If i have 2 Cat charges, with 2 pieces of heroic gear, is it worth breaking Nerubar 4 set for Undermine tier 2 set?

long bronze
#

yes but it's up to you if you want to do that before vault or raid

#

it's potentially worth it to break 4 set just for ilvl

keen ember
long bronze
#

it was for me, 23 ilvl on gloves was more dps than 4 set

keen ember
#

Fair ty 😄

#

Also any guidance on sending craft on a weapon at the start of the season or hold crafts for the first week or 2?

long bronze
#

here's your scenario btw:

#

you'd craft shield before weapon

keen ember
#

Just curious on breakpoints for crafts and where to investigate stuff

long bronze
#

I'm probably going to make shield with my first set of gilded crests

#

I have heroic wep and shield rn

#

I'd replace a crafted shield with mythic gally shield so that's gonna be basically locked in safe craft

keen ember
sand geode
#

so shield or wep then

long bronze
#

the effect on gally shield is not that big I don't think

#

it's just dps, you can sim it

keen ember

isn't the raid one huge haste also?

yes

crit haste, nom nom nom

I was able to pick up the priory trinkets for magic absorb first shot. Was happy to see the on use doesn't share a CD with other trinkets.

you mean for the giga damage right

ruby musk
#

Yea

I want tome 😦

but tome no drop critcake

I wasn't sure what it was doing at first. I had to reread it a few times.

But it's a nice trinket and the perma bubble around me looks funny when I glide. Like a draconic, plate armor Galinda.

they didnt upgrade them? thats unlucky then

I think a weathered crests spark is 629

you dont get s1 crests anymore

someone who is play the game, recreate doom guys new mog from new game for me, is a pwar i assume

#

Hello, I can't figure out how to use this macro correctly:

#showtooltip
/cast Ignore Pain
/cast Shield Slam

If you could clarify how it works, that would be great!

long bronze
#

I think the highest, sparkless craft you can do is 629 with enchanted weathered

#

s1 sparks don't do shit

#

629 neck would still be an upgrade, so I'll prolly do that, was dumb to not think about it

tribal wharf
#

this is what i mean, should be EZ

long bronze
#

isn't mythic tomb of sargaras kinda close

tribal wharf
#

one of the recent tier sets recolours is close

long bronze
tribal wharf
#

this is a bit close

#

and new

long bronze
#

idk I think tomb is better wicked

tribal wharf
#

thats starter set if you dont have the tomb i guess

long bronze
#

with the changes to appearance drops working for all armor class types, you can farm the shit outa tomb and get it pretty fast

#

god

#

having to actually think about not letting IP drop

#

sucks

toxic pewter
#

hero shield is better than champion gallywix shield right

tribal wharf
#

this is far far far and away the best transmog warrior has gotten in a very long time

#

best part is the class wide sets for paladin and dk interact in really nice way

if we trade crests down does it still count against total

do heroics give carved or just zeros

i need to max those

runed

#

oh

#

heroic dungeons?

#

idk lol

ancient reef

yeah

oak ivy
#

Heroics are weathered

lusty grotto
#

you know that if you cap the higher crest

#

you get the lower one right?

#

from repeated dungeons

ruby musk
lusty grotto
#

meaning if youre capped with gilded, you will get runed

#

from a run that gives you gilded

oak ivy
ancient reef
#

no shit

lusty grotto
#

and if youre capped with runed you get carved

#

it goes down like that

up until the currency cap for the week

a regular hero shield is better than a champion titan of industry shield right

lusty grotto

more block

toxic pewter
#

ya

lusty grotto
#

i mean you can up your gally shield

toxic pewter
#

that damage from that shield doesnt seem to be that good

lusty grotto
#

to the hero level

#

until you have crests to up the hero shield

toxic pewter
#

yeah true

#

already did that tbh

lusty grotto
#

well then yea

supple meadow

hi nim

lusty grotto

same as always, higher ilvl shield is better

I still like Arms more, though

that being said fury is a lot more fluid

arms still feels clunky

i just fucking hate fury

supple meadow
#

lmfao

long bronze
#

I miss haste corruption arms in BFA

#

that shit was goated

toxic gyro
lusty grotto
#

also arms stats are closer to prot

#

arms is crit > haste

#

were haste > crit

#

so

#

its usually more efficient to gear 2 specs at the same time

#

than hard focusing on mastery like fury

#

not saying mastery is bad for us, its not

it's just not haste

on wowhead

#

for thane lol

strong forum
#

click off thane

#

and click on colossus!

supple meadow
#

ok makes sense

#

I just wanted to be sure

#

so it's really just replace tc for revenge and press demo

jagged gust
#

no

#

It's the same as MT, you just have fewer opportunities to cast TC/SS because of hero talents

#

so you wind up pressing revenge more often

supple meadow
#

ok cool

The last trash packs in darkflame dungeons place a stupid dot on me. The worms to be exact. The dot stack and hit like a truck. I couldn't outrun them. CC does not work as well. You guys have any tip how to deal with it?

lusty grotto
#

you can parry it

#

and you can reflect it

#

reflect into shockwave and step off a bit

#

and it'll reset

#

reflect -> shockwave -> leap if necessary to gain distance

mild river
#

Ok. I was quite sure I tried that but didn't work. Maybe CC was in DR.

#

Thanks. Will try

lusty grotto
#

worked for me

#

and im pretty sure its parryable, cause i did notice it didnt stack a few times

im trying to find out with a log

I just used cheat engine to protect you, Nim. No harm shall come to you, my friend, even if I must use the dark magicks.

lusty grotto

well logs dont actually say parry on it

#

but holy fuck i parried a lot

#

of melees

#

so idk if its a weird interaction with parry or what

#

oh im dumb

#

of course it doesnt say anything, that's a dot tick

#

so yeah it kinda does seems its applied on melees so its parryable

You only need to do a small pack to get past the room anyway

in that run i had 14k crit so probably more

# mortal cypress what are dinars? I saw that mentioned on wowhead but still have no clue what the...

“Dinar” was a currency introduced at the end of Shadowlands, brought back at the end of Dragonflight, and is coming back again in next season’s raid. If you run the raid enough times next season, you will earn up to two tokens which can each be exchanged for ANY piece of gear that comes from the raid, including the rarest and most-sought-after items that you may not have been lucky enough to get normally.

Bear in mind that Blizzard’s current plan is that these tokens won’t become available until months after the raid unlocks.

Any updates on if Spellreflect Essentials has been updated and works properly now?

wind prawn
#

Any one have any opintions on the trinket below. I don't see it on the tier lsits which means i would like to think it is bad but it has about a 33% uptime in my M+ runs

#

seems strong to me

jagged gust
#

so on average it's worth < 1k str and 1750 secondary stats for an ally

wind prawn
#

Doesn't allay get primary stat

#

and you get the 1.2 million shield

jagged gust
#

no, but you do get the shield for 1/10th your hp (less the more gear you have)

#

sounds pretty mid

#

oh wait im dumb

#

i read primary stat and was like "clearly that's haste"

wind prawn
#

Lol, does it give it to the whole group?

#

It says "allies" not an ally

jagged gust
#

you happen to log a run with it?

wind prawn
#

So i see the buff on my character but not on anyone elses

#

1 sec

jagged gust
#

1k main stat to 4 allies on average sounds kinda neat

wind prawn
#

Did about 10% of my total healing, which is not bad too

#

37% uptime this dungon

jagged gust
#

is that the uptime of the stats or the shield?

wind prawn
#

The stats

#

But I don't see anything on any of my allies

#

Like a buff for them

jagged gust
#

didja check what the stat buff is called on wowhead? Might have a different name than the trinket

#

nvm looks like it's also the same name https://www.wowhead.com/spell=446648/cinderbrew-stein

wind prawn
#

Yeah but i see the buff on no one else in the run the entire time

#

only on me, maybe it is broken

#

no warcraftlogs available though?

Nah sorry

So you can't reflect reaping scythe damage back to themself in ToP anymore?

pallid quiver
#

I've heard it got changed, but I can't personally confirm. I wager Sense would update the sheet if so

Just did a 2ToP and every time i used reflect for it did no damage back to boss, didnt even deflect .

tribal wharf
#

did they fix the teleporters though

#

or nerf the hard trash pull of that section

#

bc theatre is fun

mighty valley
tribal wharf
#

1st pull and first boss can be humiliation in theatre a warning

#

cuz, everyone wants the big pull, which means you need to have SB up and get aggro and probably help kick

#

and then boss after that is immediate, and trio, a rarity for keys, and they are all annoying to fight

The "token" grants you a 2nd catalyst charge

#

But you'd best wait for next week's vault before using any catalyst

#

You don't wanna catalyse chest to then get myth tier in vault, potentially wasting the entire charge just to bet tier early

That advice is probably contingent on the assumption that you are getting a myth piece in vault*. If you aren't, and to be fair a lotta people aren't, you may want a good item in the meantime to help push you to that level.

strong forum
#

even then, the loot isnt running away

#

but wasting a potential vault item is a very realistic scenario

#

using spark this week will not make or break anything you do except that instant gratification of "woah big ilvl item"

what simple wa's do people use, shield block tracker? (would rather dps but can only be tank in keys)

another question, is the spellreflect WA not working?

Its probably not updated yet , and even in s1 it wasnt ideal , idk if they made any huge improvements mid season

twin hill

is there a tl;dr about the approximate DPS difference between colo and thane?

sharp gale
remote anchor
neon elk
#

There is no way its 30% difference

sharp gale
#

You can sim 5 targets to know the answer

#

But colossus already did more damage than thane in S1, it wouldn’t surprise me it does WAY more now

pastel geyser
#

Is colossus more forgiving than thane rn? I played thane in s1 when i played my tank alt but i hear colossus got buffed a lot

#

Anf i havent tanked in like 3 months lol

jagged pier
#

no its less

pastel geyser
#

Less in the sense of gotta manage more stuff?

jagged gust
#

colo lower apm, less room for error

#

depends on what you consider forgiving

pastel geyser
#

As in you’re allowed to live if you pressed a few buttons in the wrong order

#

That kind of stuff

#

The way i see it colosuss seems more built around demolish and thane seems to be split more on the claps on the damage part is that right?

jagged gust
#

Well the big part of thane is reduced TC cd inside of avatar, as well as refreshing the CD and burst of power giving you SS's with no cd

#

so it has easier ways to replenish rage in case you mess up

#

in that sense MT is more forgiving than colo
