The Button
/cast Charge
/cast Avatar
/cast Pummel
/cast Taunt
/cast Last Stand
/cast Shield Wall
/castsequence reset=alt Shield Slam, Revenge, Thunder Clap, Ignore Pain, Shield Block, Demoralizing Shout, Shockwave
Does this actually work?
Don't
I'm gonna
All Prot War The Button keys when?
(i forgot to switch to aegis / still has IW)
basically you press ALT when you have a shield slam reset
if you need shield block you keep pressing until you have it
I'm definitely gonna test this
Lmao
you need a key where you don't need to kick (i couldn't do mist with it for example)
whew
Anyone know how the first trash packs in dark flame cleft work? Like I guess the big dude knocks the small dudes back?
Anyone have any tips how they pull that hall until first boss
little dudes fixate on one player
minecarts knock them
No not the boss
so when you go out of big circle, dont go out in other mobs/next pack directions
The packs leading up to the boss
since the trash follow you
Ok
So I guess run backward the direction I came from with the mobs
Sort of
Do you pull both sides of that hallway
Ok cool
I will start doing that
Thank you. I guess I was trying to like keep left and not pull right side but shit went down and it all pulls anyway
you can chain pull 3 with the next (chain pull on all tbh depends on kicks/heal)
will do
just solo'd last boss of priory with my healer
fucking stupid ass
holy shit the gamma on this pic is outta control
my hdr doesn't like the snipping tool
thats normal with HDR on
kinda annoying at times but i did pay for it so im gonna use it
Flash bang
HDR doesn’t work with night mode
is that what it is???
No just a separate comment
HDR with night mode makes your screen all red
And I have to use night mode
So my eyes don’t explode
So I have a 800 dollar monitor with hdr that I never use
pain
better picture quality with more colors and better contrast
And a nice way to get frustrated if things don't play nice from the box
And then you learn to just not use HDR
as a meme answer
its literally (not really) more brightness
yes but no
the only thing you give a fuck about is resolution, o-led and HZ
nah, hdr monitors striaght up have higher nit
Unless you're a big visual enthusiast/nerd, you don't rly care esp in gaming
On big ass tvs for movies with lights off I can see it being nice, but for gaming on a monitor in a lit room
Yeah no
gaming room + lit , lol
I mean, I get that, but it really does look great when playing immersive rpgs and stuff
I genuinely have no clue what you mean by this, I assume it's some kind of stereotype?
gaming in a lit room
you have to have o-led if you want to get a really good retro on a flatpanel
Ppl don't have lights on in their homes?
im joking about how the average gaming room is like, a total dungeon
with no lights on ever
I'm quite sure that's so far from the average gaming room nowadays
you would be surprised i think
By what exactly? The demographic of gamers nowadays?
Surely the average age of a "gamer" has gone up drastically in the last 20 years
That's close to googling "home theater room" and then saying that it's the average experience of ppl who watch movies
Not the same, but you get the point
The average gamer does not have a whole ass room dedicated just for gaming
thats why its a meme/joke i thought
It's a decent enough meme or joke, but it's such an outdated one
yep, cuz its like i know / knew tons that gamed in like, dungeons basically
some basement
this is a guy who primarily posts about doom (original), I wouldn’t dwell on his jokes
eh no
it was a bunch of failed attempts to explain LOS
things that work the same (or better) than in (game)
doom comes out 1993 by a bunch of nobody nerds, still fun to this day, out lives basically everything, its kinda nuts
what does Trashmanter's Mantle 's passive do? "Don the mantle of the Trashmaster"?
you get the title
anyone have a weakaura for tracking when the tier set buff procs?
I got the bracers from mechagon.
is tome good for us? i have it, pacemaker, and ritual mud and not sure which 2 for keys
tome is bis
sick
fixed
nothing to see here blizz
nothin besides the priest nopt having a good time
Are you guys pumping in raid? I am noticing I am doing 300k more than the co tank and sometimes more than our bottom dps. One fight I finished at 777k
he means trolling as in 777k is lacking
Oh, gotcha. New to prot. I'll work on the numbers.
everyone’s dmg could be alooooot higher there
besides bear
shoutout to him
he’s doing his best
im still dumping way too much rage in TC and IP instead of revenge but i will get there eventually
Haha yeah, the raid leaders are aware of it
your cotank is doing 5th percentile damage
between mechano-core Amplifier and remnant of darkness, which one would you choose ?
you’re on the right track, your cotank is lost in the woods
Yeah, he's always doing that low of dps. We're not sure why
He’s either not aware of the rotation, pretty bad at the fundamentals of positioning for uptime etc, or his internet connection is from 1994
Probably just need to send a log to the relevant discord for tips
We all think he's watching TV while raiding. He's always not listening when we tell him to move out of shit
Is he someone’s friend
Yeah, the raid leader. They already ask if he would switch to dps and he said no
Yeah if the raid leader’s not interested in him improving and the guy is just there to hang out then there’s probably not much that can be done
Lol yeah, kind of screwed right now
honestly idk how u can play tank and not only care abt dmg
like
tank fights r rarely ever challenging
I agree. No idea why his dps is always low. Only thing we can think of is he's not pressing buttons.
prob
damn the scoring is still fully messed up
I mean it literally is though? Highlights do get brighter than on SDR
whats the best way to use tome of lights devotion the trinket from priory?
ah just read the tooltip on the wowhead guide
do we think blizz is having second thoughts about that 20% blanket damage buff to tanks
Why would they?
im not mad
i love topping damage on first boss of theatre
but blizz seems pretty indecisive about what they want tanks to do
Maybe they saw that tank enjoyment was an all time low
So they giga buffed tanks to encourage more players
Wdym
Brewmaster only got 15
Did you find yourself a warrior huzz

No but I made something that will attract them
I will just say this; if tanks didnt have DPS that was impactful on completing the key on time and being able to carry the slack of others... I would not be playing tank
It is already a headache herding cats. At least let me have the oppertunity to carry them by the scruff over the finishing line by force.
can you spell block rik
should i swap that raid trinket for the earthen ally one?
Man I've swapped to colossus to test it in (only been playing m0's for now though) and it feels pretty good even though I dont have 4-piece yet
Definitely not quite as straight-forward as thane but 10-stack demolish feels real nice to hit
Or at least I've not played it enough for it to be straight-forward yet
Pretty much yeah hahahah
Good that it's a button that feels nice again, really dislike hitting it in MT
Is there any way to get tier faster? The ways I know of are vault RNG once a week, raid RNG once a week, and catalyst
Google says no but I'm praying it's wrong since I don't really raid
You listed every source of tier sets
do crests from end of dungeons get mailed if i couldnt loot chest
oh wait theyre not in the chest
gg
You get crests before yes
ya sweet
I just did my first dungeon on my war
Brrrrrrrrrr
Almost 2 m overall and idk fully col yet lol
what percent haste do i want for into theffray in dungeons?
I think you want like 20k haste or something? Could be old info though
yeah shoot i just dropped my old neck
I swapped earlier and it was fine (but I've only done m0 so far)
and im afraid im about to drop shield blocks
You could run bolster if you really want ITF
That might be kind of forcing it though
Yurrr
I'm going to bed but @ me after lol I'm curious about the results
will do
u guys use ur catalyst charges yet
Nop (on bdk/my raid main this tier) I didn’t use any charge
I filled 3 vault slots of 10s without it
You don’t know what will drop in your vault / if tier, which slot / if no tier but can be catalysted as one you need the charge
i forgot about xalatath affix this week is cranking haste
im gonna have to test more next week
but the 11 was fine with 17k haste
itf
Dang nice. What ilvl is that in that like myth track 3/6 or wat
662 I think
Are we back to Thane for M+?
I see a lot fo the top r.io Prot Warriors running Thane again
probably to eek out more survivability
Haste/Crit or Haste/Vers?
Pre m+ nerf hotfix earlier this week I was messing with thane vs colo in 10s and it felt like I had more control but there’s so many factors to that. While Colo is very tanky now I think you’re still more likely to run into issues where you’ve starved yourself as opposed to thane, and as keys get more difficult consistency starts to matter
spend em on shit
Question, do i drop 4pc old tier for 60 ilvl (gloves/chest 649 is 60 ilevel between), was looking for the "when to swap" section in the guide
what do your sims say
60 ilevel is huge
let me sim without keeping tier
just set min tier to 0
yeah it's a pretty big jump
i thought wowhead guide had a "when to swap tier" section but coudln't find it, will just swap
ty @mortal cypress
guys whats the strat for the coridor creepers in the end of DC, that dot rips me apart at high stacks
Hey for “add” fights what do we drop to pick up Ravger in the execute bulid
in add fights just don't run ravager
You can easily drop the +2 sec Shield Block talent and put the point into Bloodsurge. This helps alot with rage gen.
man how much haste you think I got?
30-40% infight?
What do you run? For the extra AOE? Do you really just run Excute build and that's it?
I'm chilling at just shy of 17k haste without consumes
I need that extra shield block
the raid build, you don't even run ravager in M+ when you get 4 set
I got only 14k and don't need it. With 4p we will not need it at all
is tome of lights devo any good for prot kinda new to pwarrior.
yes
yeah my buddy was reading the wrong bis lol
i noticed its got a big ass magic dmg shield hellanice. im used to playing bdk lol
then you 100% have block gaps in a key
I too got the Last Stand block talent and it seems to be fine.
bruh
just bruh
Yeah yeah I know. Tell me your minmax shit 😄
But why invest a talent there when you could have just put it in Eduring Defenses....
This is not even min max
This is just running a worse talent
Do you want 20 seconds of shield block or 15 seconds of shield block
Because of more Last Stand?
Last stand is not a good defensive lol
Worse than shield block that’s for sure
Have you thought of the fact that you need more last stand is due to your less shield block uptime
last stand not great
It doesn't matter why I need more Last Stand.
If I can get 100% SB uptime with one talent point and have the choice of 'just 100% uptime' and '100% uptime AND more Last Stand' it is obvious which is better.
He’s got a secret hack to get 100% uptime with no hr no ed
how often are you pressing last stand lmao
That no one’s thought of
This prot warrior dmg
This is a screenshot of all time
stix? ball?
RWF
which boss
trashman
giga
damn nice
as colossus, is there a general number for when it is better to revenge even when 1 or more enemies are executable?
3 targets i'd assume
i was thinking the same, for the stack procs on revenge
If you mean the very end bit just before last boss if you go down the middle and then turn left but use the right side of that left turn you'll just pull one.
Getting the DPS to not ass pull another one (or 2 is another matter)
It can be managed with lay on hands, paladin sacfrice and probably other stuff 99% won't use.
The debuff drops off after 5 seconds of being out of range
i think pres evoker has something that was really helping with it too
they can remove bleed once per min
i try to do max % to not do those creepers before last boss, absolutely destroy me
This essentially but DPS do DPS things
I don't get an alert on my dark iron dwarf and it tells me everything else when I can remove
If Evoker can remove it then Dwarf racial also should.
Pretty sure it's not a bleed
Ah, yeah if it’s a curse ur fucked
Inflicts 121623 Shadow damage every 1 sec for 6 sec. This effect stacks. In the NPC Abilities category. A spell from World of Warcraft: The War Within.
Anything outside of Paladin Sacrifice that will help?
Hi all what's a good ilevel for a tank to start mythics this season
If I remember I say at the beginning not to (ass) pull X2 creepers otherwise I'm dead
Looks like it's magic dispell able, just doesn't happen in the vast majority of the pugs I've been in
Yeah I was about to say it’s still not clear; I googled it and came up with nothing.
You’d figure if it were magic it would get dispelled by someone eventually tho lol, just check the border around the debuff next time you run into it. Blue = magic purple = curse red = bleed
If someone's on a healer discord can they post a question in there please?
How come the mechagon cloak is BIS? Is the on-equip effect amazing or something?
Is our 4p's Crit bonus to shield slam Additive or Multiplicative?
like 20% Crit *1.75=35% crit chance or 20%Crit + 75%=95% Crit chance
Is there a reason prot warrior still hasnt gotten updated on bloodmallet but every other class has?
it's not, just gotta leap/kite/have dps that love you enough to send cooldowns into thode mobs
also they get buffed when the small ones die, if u kite the elite out of the pool before it goes u can prevent it from getting buffed, holding a candle and kiting around the ring has worked to give more space for some of my keys
⤴️
Candles a good idea
Hey question for the rest of yall, i keep seeing Crit stacking prot warriors, i understand they want to do as much damage as possible with parry resetting Revenge, but Parry stacking when you can easily keep block at 100% uptime seems like ur triple dipping into physical mitigation, our base armor is as high as a DH in Meta (no spikes), is there something im missing or prot war just so meaty ppl just ignore defensive to go for dps parces?
There must be something other than paladin Sacrifice that helps. Tanked 2 on one run and my hp didn't flinch once I had pointed out what had killed me
oh they arnt that bad, let debuff fall off tho i chain pulled 1 into a pack of 2 and actually had to shield wall for once in my life... still 3 boxed
why the hell does prot bloodmallet still show S1?
i saw someone else link S2, am i missing something?
Not entirely sure what the intent here is but Crit is a very good stat both offensively and defensively, and SS gets a buff from having SB rolling so "parse" gameplay really wouldn't even be losing much defensive performance unless one is running a psycho talent setup
as colossus u get more demo cdr with higher crit
based on synergies i feel crit is prots worst stat, thats where my confusion is, Verse is damage, DR, double scaling on absorbs, Mastery is damage, DR via crit blocks (also applies to spells and aoe via spellblock) granted only 33% uptime, and buffs ur ignore pain via attack power, Crit resets revenge which procs more SS, Keeps wildstrikes up which hels proc SS, Buffs parry and does damage via crits. but its only damage reduce is for phsical attacks where the other stats affect magic damage which we are weakest against... actually our weakest is dots but only verse gets tht.
Vers is not nearly as good as you think it is
but a crit build plays into crushing force and the other crit scaling offensie buffs
No if u parry something u take no damage so your IP effects magic more
You need a lot of vers for it to do anything. Also, a lot of the damage income is physical damage, where parry does a lot of work
i get parry being strong for DH and DK but WARRIOR?
parry is still strong for warrior
And in m+ pulls parries dont become rng they will just happen
having a 30% chance to take 0 damage is still strong even with our mitigation
we dont live or die by it
In terms of total damage taken if you go crit over vers you are more likely to just take more damage
my base armor reduces physical by 57% my blocks reduce it another 44% and if it crit blocks its 85%... quick math puts tht at 7% before crit is a factor or ignore pain
oh i agree taking 0 damage is great and all... but the other side of the coin is magic damage and dots
Its not like we are really bad vs magic damage tho
Which your Ip will be more efective against
If u take no damage from physical sources
U can also
Parry bleeds
i already take no damage from physical sources im a prot warrior
how many of those are there in 11.1?
More than you think
Cant tell you off the top of me head but would have to dig through logs
Motherlode miniboss before 2nd boss, creepers in darkflame
Are the only ones I can think of right now
u will gain more from investing crit than u will gain from investing vers or mastery
U also have to gain more stats for a 1% vers than any other stat
thats what im asking, i have reviewed logs and that doesnt hold water
Not like tankiness is an actual topic right now
I dont know what logs ypur looking at so cant say
ok so the crit build is for dps
You can play 10+ and still spam revenge most of the time cuz theres no damage
crit build is for both
tht checks out! the crit builds are always top meters for logs
thts the pattern i noticed
its top meters because its the best for damage but u arent losing anything defensively
Look if u want to run vers run vers no ones stopping you
It will make no differencd tbh
the way i view logs btw is damage taken, click the EHRPS tab to see how much ur healer carried and try to see what % u stay above
Expect you will have less interaction with tier set
So your not looking for parries then
Your just looking and ehhrps thats literally not great cause lots of think effect it
^
But you like not going to certain fights in a dungeon where parry can work and look at are u parring or not is my point
So saying ive reviewed logs for parries
Is incorrect
no i reviewed logs broadly
Your looks at total parries not if specfitic things can be oarried
exactly
So your statement of it doesnt work on these thing is false?
Because you havent checked
Looks if u want to run vers and it makes u feel good run it
We arent stopping you
Theres not much difference between to 2
Some high rio dudes did that last season even
But not like it matters
They all also ran BSV without needing it 
Its not going to make or break a key ither way you still wont die running ither
hnghhh the luck this week has been good
Just woth one you will do less damage and interact with the tier set less
I understand if you doing 12+
But ive seen ppl running it in 10s
it buffs 75%, i run a base 15% so ill take my 90% chance to crit and think if it will be fine
Less SS crots overall less SCs less block uptime
Yes depends on the bleed
But majority of the small ones u can
Take siege last season those mobs at the start can oarry that
Corridor Creeper?
I think Im running around with like 28% crit or so
Swaring blows in df u could parry that
Most likely
sick.
Gotta do 2.5M dps somehow
Between the chance they dont apply it and crit i didnt get a stack once last night or just got really lucky
Cant tell yah didnt look at logs
i think my pb do far in tankermen is 1.7 and i went full monkey that dungeon and did not ever rip demolish just full sent revenge on global
u can parry the application of physical attack based dots
so... all of the problem ones this season? goated.
in recent patches they have made some tank mechanics bypass parry to prevent overscaling of classes tht have parry buffs in their kit being overplayed
I will also say this for crit it can just legit save you with a bit of luck i linked jt a while ago but on queen i tanked the boss with the 200% increased damage thing at the end and parried 3-4 melee hits i would have been dead with vers, still rng but being at like 30% crit let me role more likely than if i was lower
I dunno i have like 4% vers right now
And i take no damage
i mean my war was 624 and he survived that, he has 46% mastery at that time
he survived liquid into feast.
I dont think ive been over 10 the entire expansion 
crit block is stupid strong
What difficutly?
H
Mythic hit a little too hard to take both, i could only take the autos for my mythic pulls
U cant take both on mythica
i cant take feast no, that is correct
And u are talking about a diffferent part of the fight than i am
AHHHH yeah we never made it to devours for M queen
just a P1 guild for M queen
but i appreciate the dialogue, just to verify crit only helps parry, revenge resets, wild strikes, and now the 4 set
only lmao
to be fair shield block only helps against blockable hits, spell blockable hits and shield slam damage
Well through parry is helps with dot and amgic mitigation because its not being reduced by physical damage
Is dropping circet just a sim yourself angle?
Yes
Cheers
Idk if anyone pointed this out yet but perhaps BoSpellWarding
thats still a thing isn't it
https://www.wowhead.com/spell=204018/blessing-of-spellwarding
"This spell does not purge damage over time effects. Magical DoTs of any type (curse, disease, magic, poison) will remain on the target as normal, and begin to deal damage again once the blessing expires."
Yep
Was probably that, thank you
Has anyone done the numbers on taking Immovable Object instead of Unstoppable Force when you have the 2 set?
You guys take UF as col? Or it’s a thane question ?
2 set doesn't proc IO
But colossus takes IO by default anyway, and thane is HARD trolling not to play UF
cant parry it, its magic dot, but spellblock doesnt work for it either :v
Its a chance on melees tho, if u dont get meleed by it it might not stack it but as i said i havent checked logs myself
oh right, I've forgot its applied via melee, just checked some logs, looks like indeed parrying stops applying debuff

it does feel that way but you cant block em all so it hurts anyway
didn't know if it proc'd or not
tyvm for the answer
You can also Reflect Corridor Creeper
And it resets the dot every time
If you're fighting one
That is
Good to know
hows peoples breakdown looking?
big
was actually asking
cause my friend has revenge far on top, i have demolish on top with revenge slight behind
revenge should be WAY on top
maybe im prioring having ignore pain on
Use more revenge and less ignore pain
where can i see s2 delves loot table?
I suppose you Execute over Revenge in st, but what about 2 or 3 targets, where a target is 20%?
Also do you just never use Shield Slam in packs, unless you need the rage?
believe you press shield slam off CD regardless of pack size if you are colossus - i meanits also probably true in thane i just have not played it this patch
thane is just shield slam+thunder clap spam
just wondering if its better to ignore Shield Slam to spam revenge in packs as colossus, unless needing the rage
nope
this was mine from a +10 Priory I ran last night; I'll caveat with I mostly played MT in weeklies last season so there's still probably a lot I'm not doing well (and not playing in BStance enough) but this is with 2pc/2pc
my Demolish seems to be desynced a lot from Avatar so might be doing something very wrong there vs just sending it anyway idk
sweet ty
your troar did signifcantly more dmg for the same # of casts tho
Do we want to change to 2+2 piece tier set asap? or wait till we get full 4?
i didnt share all my columns but it looks like his crit almost double mine and i think he's also hitting more stuff with each cast
I just ditched season 1 tier that set sucked ass anyway
rather take the amor, stam, stats
looks like on character sheet Nome has 5% crit on me and is also the guide writer (so I assume that's a hidden buff in the blizz coding 😄 )
Nome gets DPS from pure spite against ppl saying pwarr is bad. This is known
Just copying what the main guys in here have said before but basically switch to the S2 2pc as soon as you get it
who the fuck designed this 2nd boss in rookery
A hunter with a grudge
whats wrong about it?
just a clusterfuck
I killed myself with charge multiple times already on that guy
did it both as dps and tank, boss seems quite cool imo
Im just not a fan of it because so much of it feels like waiting. but i always like hot potato debuffs no clue why
I don't like standing out of range half the fight
nah fuck hot potato
It’s just dog ass for melee
He needs to not cast inside of his puddles
yea it is, they should change gravity to be just aoe or something
It is meant to be annoying and a ranged fight, it is what it is
Just depleted a 10 rookery because the ret pala key holder couldn’t live any of the bosses
That’s every boss though
Some are just worse about it
on other hand, last boss in rookery is nice for tanks
“Nice” = boring
Literal target dummy boss
"nice" = just pump dmg 
Just payphoning in the corner while the group does the mechanics
just as rashanan i dawnbreaker, or candle thing in cleft
Cleft zzz
Shit dungeon but at least it’s a cakewalk
Except for the rock throw lmao
yea, rock thrower is annyoing
noted, thank you
never grouping with pug mages again
I love doing guild keys with our mage then going into a pug and their dps is half of his
I don't know why I even do this I already know they suck
then here I go into another group with one thinking things may change
Me but not with wow
XD
in cleft what to do against creeper dot? CC dont work on them, i was solving it by jumping away and hoping they wont reach me in 5 seconds
You can parry, but it's too much to wait for some parries in a row to clear the debuff. Other than leaping away and reseting it, I don't know what to say. When I reach 10 stacks I start using shield wall and running
You have to move them away from corpses because they gain %damage when near corpses
oh i forgot on this one, thanks
ok so jump it is
Or reroll to pally and bubble that haha
.............................................................
couldnt be one of my friends
her cat shit on her keyboard mid-key and she finished it
despite our protests that she should just afk
And that is why my cats are never allowed in the room with my pc
got the bombsuit and seaforium week one stuff is very nice
I just found out that raid loot lockouts are difficulty-specific
we learn every day
Meaning that clearing on LFR doesn't lock out the other difficulties' loot
Guess who's going into normal diff raid 💀
Need that tier set
i went in normal 3 pieces of warrior tier set dropped i lost the roll on all 3
good luck may you have better luck than me
I'm taking the season off if that happens
😭😭😭😭
i got the bombsuit so i am ok
tier set i will get 4 set next week
is there a place you can see trinket seems like bloodmallet?
Is kiting the only option for dealing with creeping shadow stacks in dark flame cleft ?
Ungabunga what do I do if the paladin does big burst and my agro just goes all over the place
Spell Reflect if you're pulling a single one
it reflects the DoT application which for me is consistently enough to reset stacks
That only applies to the single one of course or if both have synced melees ig
i spell reflect and intervene to drop stacks
Aoe taunt
pump harder
whats the best way to sim for aoe / M+ for prot? like 5 target patchwork? I dont have any routes
has anyone done underpin ?? yet is he difficult
I've pulled the ?? one a few times. I think he's quite doable. It's just the bombs are kinda hard to target. Might need to make a interact hotkey.
Okay but that only works if challenging shout is up
guys im doing it im using my catalyst charges blindly YOLO LOL
I DONT EVEN CARE ANYMOE
I had a mage do that the other day in dfc... but it was his "dog"
his inner dog
woof
left after candle boss... we went ahead and finished and timed it... he didn't get the loot lu ckily lol
Does anyone have tips for the first boss of Priory after going left? the bleed + the +25% dmg debuff destroys me...
Post nerf the bleed is actually bearable
Just have to be more careful about how you wanna use your rage
Is it? I haven't tried it post nerf, I started going right... but ppl hate the fire lol
Yeah its a massive difference
In a 10 it was easier to deal with than in a +7 pre-nerf lol
I haven't gotten to 10s yet... i've tried it as a 8/7 and i was getting demolished
So whats everyone runnin? Col or Thane.
went to Col with the patch, diggin it. Miss my lightning god though lol
Col
Straight up deals a lot more damage and feels the same in terms of tankiness
But mobs start slapping hard at 12+ 
I haven't tried col in prot.. I guess I should try that
yeah, it feels great. Started playing this season yesterday, got to 2200, I know its workable in higher keys as well, itll be a while before the DR in Thane will be "better"
One more tier to get 4 piece and ill start pumpin
once u got colossus its hard to go back to mountain lame
its just feels solid
I mainly play col now myself, but I ran thane last night in mug'zee and gally norm fight and them executes just feel hot there
dopamine receptor fried
Pressing demolish feels so good but so does just spamming 1mil+ revenges
I did a 9Cinder last night and 42% of my damage was revenge, no demolish rips
I'm personally having a lot of fun with this season's dungeon
but that's also because they all feel like a giant step up over the season 1 dungeon pool
yah this season is great so far
any tips for the 3rd boss of Motherlode? Does she destroy the tank at specific moment or it's the whole fight?
she only does magic damage and it hurts
use spell block but other than during that you don't need shield block up
every 5 seconds is 20 different circles and every pack is 50 million nameplates covering my entire screen
it's way too noisy
also like rookery hallways with the big circles in a tight-ass corridor
like bruh
it's just annoying as fuck
and never stops
idk I personally prefer more personal responsability with the "bullet hell" style mechanics and stuff
nameplates though I feel that
yeah focus on ignore pain then
yeah
in workshop does the bite dispell aoe damage the crate ?
we crafting shields this season?
Does the knock up on shock wave add anything to it, they're stunned while knocked up so is that talent really just for the 5 seconds off the cooldown?
The boss only does series of 2 or 3 autos between spells so it gives you enough time to bank resources and rotate CDs.
You just need practice to know when autos are coming out because there is no warning and they do pack a punch 😅
Is it worth to craft shield this week?
Anyone have a Colossal might weakaura to track stacks and tiem left?
Found a solution with tellmewhen addon - thanks 🙂
Creeper stacks in DFC can be spell blocked? Is it enough to drop the stacks?
yes and yes should be. It can also be parried to avoid the stack (but rng dependant)
Do you need it this week ?
Thanks a lot, always having trouble here
You can kite too
@brittle fulcrum intervening some one drops the stacks?
i did too xd
first time trying CL as prot...is it better to send demolish? or to hold off to keep revenge buffed
if one finds themselves with a free talent are we feelin Second Wind or P&G
Png
mad why tf they remove the scythe reflect in ToP
who tf thinks of ts man
who wakes up and thinks “yeah lets remove the most goated reflect”
send on CD, it also increases damage done to enemies hit with it
and does a billion damage
Did u do as prot?
Is that tier? o tier??
??
I tried to but adds were spawning all over the place and sometimes even outside of the arena
It was impossible to dps sometimes
yeah gotta leave and re-enter the delve after 1 or 2 wipes
I was running all the time kicking the bombs
thats the entire boss ye
it just dies passively
when you dont have to kill adds
its all just bombs
clunky but easy
Yeah after third wave the adds just spawn outside the area for me. I thought that was a soft enrage.
So you just have to do the fighting hoping it doesn't bug?
And when it bugs, you leave the delver.
Gotcha
Gonna try later then
Thanks 😊
wait you did tier ?? Solo
yes
how the fuck lmao
idk
My best is 75%
then he just fuckin heals to full and I'm screwed
you need to break the shield
just hold demolish for it
and you almost insta break it
but you're prot God so our skill gap is pretty substantial 🤣🤣
So how do you do it?
just kick bombs into him and adds?
kick bombs into adds
hold demolish for shield breaks (everytime he reaches 100 energy )
and dmg him when no adds to kill

lmao
I'm prepared to admit when it's my own issue lol
did you do it with the col build on wowhead or your own special version
Whats good uptime lookin like with shield block using the mountain thane build from wowhead. >
my unbuffed haste is horrid still
85%+++
as close to 100% as possible
if your haste is shit, you play heavy repercussions
with 16k++ haste youre fine to run ITF in weekly keys
if you have less than that, youll struggle a bit
heh. 16k. i have 14%
yeah, play HR then
get yourself the cinderbrew neck then
i have too much haste now almost
im at like 22k
Should i play a vet ring that has haste over a champ wtihout?
yes
but I thought ilvl is king over everything
with rings and neck being the exception 🙂
ohhhhh. gotcha
i would never equip a non-haste ring unless i already had overkill amount of haste
I will remember that when I'm gearing
part of teh reason why im never low haste
my stats are booty
the only item i have without haste is my boots and weapon
everything else has haste

i had 2k stones waiting to use anyways i upgraded the vet ring to 634 like the champy
good
im crafting weapon then shield I dont figure ill see myth track for either
i almost had the shield crafted. but figured i should save.
using a herioc track shield lol
herioc dungeon
^ upgraded to 629
My mastery is my highest stat I think, I know that's probably bad
its less than ideal
but not bad
there are no bad stats
just some are better than others
yeah my stats are mastery haste crit vers in that order
Vers no good this season or we want minimal.?
Newish to prot. i main or have mained a BDK for 5 yrs.
I was gonna show you my stats but I logged off in fury spec
I just try to be the best player I can be realistically lol
I only play like 20hrs a week at most
thats more than most myth raiders do
Damn 20hrs is quite nice
fr? lmao
so you're telling me I should probably be much higher ilvl rn and I'm doing something wrong
Idk what u doing and whats your ilvl, im just saying i would like to have 20hrs a week to play
everyone's 20 hours are different
20 hours of pumping through keys with a skilled static group would get you geared pretty fast
if you're hanging out in town desperately trying to make 2s happen, less so
I usually try to farm stuff while waiting for buddies to log on
Damn. You doing 11s already?
Nah you can barely squeeze it out with 10++s
11s probably not too bad tbh, just a waste of time atm
Question, how are you guys handlign corridor creepers in DFC?
Especially in cart? Because of the stacking debuff
Getting destroyed by them as well lol
boys is our damage gonna get nerfed? doing dummy dps after getting 2 piece
pwar doing work for liquid
If I only really touched thane in s1, how much does s2 colo differ playstyle wise?
You have an extra button to press on CD and you can’t throw IP out nearly as much as s1 thane, gotta keep more rage in the tank to keep pressing buttons
Sort of
Rage income is still overall down from last season but the compensation buffs were strong
And they didn’t end up hitting ss reset chance as badly
The dmg done to the boss with the balls counts on details, this is fake dmg 😄
lol
I was really hoping someone else would get WF and not the clown circus
but here we are unfortunately
So guys how td do i get 2k undercoins to get my gyaranteed map?
STONKS, s tier
GUYS I JUST REROLLED
pwar best, what do i take
it's not pwar, it's trash pile
yup
Tier 8 if you just want hero gear
Tier 11 if you are also going for max gilded crest
tell that to the average wow player
how soloable are 11s at 639 ilvl
Easily chain pullable
word
ill save it then
if im using the move speed gem, im assuming the unique color gems r more important than the specific stats?
at least until i get all the colors
any specific things I should know about the Cinderbrew Stein trinket, outta curiosity?
Nothing hurts except first 2 pulls
Don't overpull in the first room, but pull decently big (no more than 1 muscle and 2 pyros per pull)
In the corridors don't pull bigger than 2 packs at a time
how do u guys fit ignore pain into ur budget in times of rage starve
its not my fault when i go from 100-0 with 0 shield slam resets
Hope this helps!
surely
More revenge
im going from 100-0 with revenge, yes
Then you spent 5 globals, aka the full cd of SS. Without getting a single reset
The chance of that happening is incredibly slim
im a high roller for bad rng
But yeah, if you come into teh situation of rage starving, that means you fucked up some time earlier
And overspent when you shouldn't have
Or you're needlessly sitting on cds
do you guys ever play roar in keys over spear? i have a hard time getting snap threat when i have to pull multiple packs with heroic throw and dont have enough rage to revenge each group as they come in. by the time i've hit half of them, dropped ravager, dropped spear, pressed demo shout, it seems like my melee have just ripped all the ones that i havent hit with an actual ability yet
first pull of floodgate for example, i can tag the left pack with throw, charge->revenge the right pack, thunderclap the 3rd pack, and then usually try to tag the back pack with another heroic throw, but that leaves like 5 mobs from those 2 groups i hit with throw that i havent actually damaged in, by the time i get my ground aoe stuff down the melee have started their dps and ripped those mobs
I dont use spear at all in keys
roar feels so much better imo
if everything is in melee range just challenging shout maybe?
i can but then i dont have my aoe kick which is kind of why im playing my warrior this season over my monk, my group is terrible with interrupts and none of us want to play vdh or prot pally
i guess for that specific pull i can just send it as i think there's only 2? kicks
but in general i dont have it for every time i want to group 3 or 4 packs, i guess ill just play roar if its not far behind spear
and just press it for free aggro
wasnt sure what the difference was, i looked at a few top runs and everyone was playing spear from what i saw but i guess top runs rn are just random since most of the top players are raiding
yeah looking at it now i guess a bunch of people are playing roar
just use wowhead build lol
I would say it also depends on how you play better
the builds are close enough, whichever makes you feel better
and play better
use that one
anyone got any tips for vindel snapcrank boss in delves? i lsot all my lives to him 😦
it'll be better than trying to mini-max a build that doesn't feel good to you
the adds keep hitting me - they lock on.. not sure what im supposed to do
I'm actually not the biggest fan of spear specifically because of the tiny ass range it has.
no one running spear right now
Anyone playing thane? Assume it's still fine. Was thinking of running it until I get 4 set piece just for simplicity
which one bro? i cant find any that are working good
how good is the tank ttrinket this raid?
You mean the bomb suit? Any tank trinket with an absorb amount scales badly, and the bomb suit has one. That 10 million damage will get consumed instantly when you actually want it.
For reference thunder punch in an 11 floodgate hits for 8 million, and applies a dot that ticks for 2.5 million. The trinket absorb would be consumed in the single ability
no, the scrapfield one
It runs into the same problem. Ignore the defensive utility on it, and sim your damage with it
If you're dying I'd be amazed.
But I'm sure they'd help carry someone that didn't know what they were doing in easier content
So you're saying it completely negates a tankbuster
And that's a bad thing?
Wild
The mythic raid version doesn't even fully negate a tank buster in an 11 is what I said.
i mean were doing heroic bandit and tank is literally dieing to stupid shit
like the big physical hit
What is he using his shield walls on? It should be hitting for around 10m through shield wall and armor alone
its a pally tank
wait
violent outburst gives me ignore pain
so my muscle memory of always pressing outburst w/ IP macro is purely wasted rage
no wonder im starving
thats crazy
it is also wild because it is a copy of Nzoth trinket (Nyalotha) and it was really good back in bfa
(yeah 1 min and it was a maybe 60-70% of your hp in the amount / i was brew )
i used my delver map and the heroic item i got was a shit ass trinket thats worse than my champ ones
@stiff gate curious why you don’t like prot pally or vdh? What about blood?
prot pally i cant stand having to stand in my consecrate and having trash tier mobility. dh idk i just never liked it. half my action bars are empty on that class
i basically just play monk and warrior, i like blood except it also has pretty bad mobility
Except it's a 75% absorb, meaning the 10mil it provides carries you over 12.5mil dmg + IP also partial absorbs the dmg then.
If your key level is high enough at some point you will run out of shield walls to cover for thunder punch. At which point the bombsuit can fill your mitigation gaps.
Bomb suit is the single best defensive trinket we've seen in a while
While it's not as good as aegis from 9.1
Getting a partial absorb trinket with a 1.5min cd with a decently large absorb pool is incredibly potent
But yeah, scrapfield is a decent stat stick
Can recommend getting it
blood has the same pal issue with consecrate 
from doing some keys on my warrior today, it is another world
I'm too used to 30s cd leap + 2 charges + intervene + sc
Miss me having to RP walk like bdks do
yeah you get used to not being able to move quite fast tbh, since you just grab things to you
im coping
Anytime you are out of combat
bc i'm fucking bdk for raid
beginning of Priory HYPE
Yeah
and i can't even kite or get adds and go behind wall since i just die in 1 sec if i'm not hitting mobs
but it does make me appreciate parry a lot more lol (and crit)

What changed this season that defender's aegis is actually worth in a general case now
Hi. What's easier and lowest effort to play "well enough" in raids. Arms or fury? (im prot brained, i have no idea how those 2 work)
Fury feels pretty similar to thane prot in my opinion. But I think arms is generaly easier to play
It's probably the general uptime of shield wall with our new set bonus, on top of avatar giving us shield wall, on top of 2 charges of shield wall.
i havent played blood since like wod oops lol
Yeah you kinda die if you out of your death and decay
sounds awful
But is has like pal the 5 sec buff before it expires once you go out
Tbh it is awful my bdk will never see something over a 10, it’s just a char for raid
even before tier?
With tier i can see that
I'd say even before tier. This season we can do absolutely massive pulls, and the double shield wall helps a lot with them.
I believe they also reduced the frequency of shield slam being reset, so that alone lowers the value of impenetrable wall a lot.
Chance to reset the cooldown of Shield Slam from Devastator and Strategist reduced to 25% (was 30%).
oh thats interesting. ty.
Question about the Tome trinket: it's showing me having BOTH verses active right now, is that a bug?
Inner Radiance and Inner Resilience
Can you screenshot/ red circle what you think is wrong ? Because I have it too I’m kinda disturbed too on this trinket
hey guys quick question
Ofc I took a WA for it, but when it says to press it, the WA tells me I’m in crit mode but I’m still in def mode for the 25 sec of the use
I mean it's just that it's showing both, lol. Dunno what a screenshot would help with xD
On my bdk I took off my s1 tier for ilvl (it was on 619 pieces)
Also it appears to be giving me both bonuses in my character sheet. 100% not complaining, mind, I did 29 runs for this fucking trinket.
Our old tier isn't anything to write home about. I swapped it all out for pure ilvl and my DPS and surv is stronger than ever 
I think the general concensus is swap when new 2pc or to sim

Who needs heroism, when you are built to be the hero
Looks like entering combat fixed it, no double dip trinkey.
real players use Bloodlust
if someone says "hero???" in raid I just insta leave
Warriors should really have bloodlust. 😠
Just seems like a weird thing that we, the bloodlustier zug zuggers around, don't got it.
warrior healer spec when? Just shout at people to get healthier and pick yourself off the ground
lol
Hey, I'm not asking for something unreasonable. Could call it "War Cry." We are lacking in utility.
Kinda sick of being reminded of that every time there's a tier list. >_>
Leave to go back to your mud huts and bombed our cities, typical horde
idk, undead people, cow men, green tusk men > humans, midget humans, slightly larger midget humans
How are yall dealing with the bleeds on the first big pulls in cinderbrew?
Undead “people”
i mean they are all just pixels at the end of the day
how many delver's bounties can u get in a week
Just one.
Im more curious how u can get that one, am i supposed to be spaming delves or what
you can buy item with 2000 undermine coins that guarantees it
I've had 2 this week, presumably it's catch up from not running delves last week.
It's random when you get it
….Ok demolish is legitimately addictive to hit
dopamine stonks
anyone know why i cant blacklist ignore pain and shield block from my player frame on elviu? using weakaraus for those instead
Yea i just kinda lacks 2k coins, did 4 bountyfulls this week and im at 1.6k or so
Man warriors are eating so good right now especially prot, y'all riding high this week as well?
I didn't see anyone really give you a response, but it's a combination of the following:
- Imp Wall no longer gives rage, so it doesn't help your rage econ, meaning it effectively gives less CDR as well (Less Anger Management)
- Shield Wall's base CD was reduced, making there be less of a CD too reduce, so DA's reduction ends up just being more percentage wise, even though it's flat
- IO can give it value when you wall back to back to enable you to have more damage at the start of a long pack, as well, if playing Colo
No. Warrior is terrible. It needs a buff
Yes yes zug zug you're right, needs more zug power
Yes....tier sucks...needs more baseline dps, remove aoe cap on some abilities....then we can compete
if we keep reminding blizzard we will get the buffs we deserve
that's not the warrior pipeline
im trying to change it
Is there a way to macro ravager and champions spear into one cast @ cursor macro?
Only as a sequence macro, or mod binds*, won't be able to have 1 press cast both at the same time tho
Hello ! Coming back to warrior after taking a bit of a break at the end of S1, is one against many the way to go over arterial bleed on colossus for M+ ?
Yep
And bleed in raids?
Think so, yeah
Bleed in pure st
Seabed leviathan isn't very good.
On the other hand: Big
Demolish is ridiculously cool.
I think last season felt fine, admittedly, but I'm no longer salty about the changes. Colossus feels like a fucking beast right now.
man
in ptr yall were all like "i hate channeled casts. i will never fogive blizzard"
now ur all like "me and the channeled cast, besties"
i see how u are
Hey guys, when running delves as prot, are you using dps or healer brann and what curious are you using?
dps brann for sure
haven’t really looked at the curios yet, feel unkillable with whatever
I still hate the channel aspect but do like the big numbers so I tolerate it
Is a crafted weapon the way to go?
personally still playing Thane but all this Demo hype makes me wanna swap just to try. >.>
Took me a mythic to get use to, but after that, I was sold.
what is overall dps looking like in 8+s?
Depends on the key, I’m usually around 1.8-2m on details
Fuck, and I thought I was pumping at 1.5ish.
Thane
Colossus offers a good bit more damage at the expense of defense
It’s harder to gather though, you have to think about how you aim revenge
Yeah the DPS question was a followup above lol, because all of the Demo hype.
It’s really revenge doing the work
Just use keep challenging shout ready for really big spread pulls and you can usually charge > slam > revenge, leap to next pack and gather
instructions unclear, dps are busy bricking my keys so they don't complete
I actually haven't had any keys not complete, but I've definitely seen some people do their best to not time
hey i didnt time a 10 cinderbrew cause a hunter didnt dismiss his pets
then blamed me
Yo
