Like the sweet spot

lofty warren
#

what the heck is that big ass icon on my plater

sharp gale
#

Seems like agony or whatever affliction warlock dot

#

But what makes it appear idk

hardy snow
ionic nimbus
#

Solution: remove the lock

#

Update your plater + profile, update your WAs

unborn island
#

I think people have been saying 16k for 'easy' keys and 18k for pushing. Perhaps with flasks as well

sharp gale
#

And delete the double anchored cds to nameplates / that can happens with plater + WA doing the same thing

unborn island
#

I have a lot more than that because I'm lucky with neck and rings and have very heavy haste rings+neck

#

But I don't think there's any downside to it

sharp gale
#

Wtf is the golden amount

solid panther
#

Hey guys, question, does the tier set work hand in hand with Immovable Object? Will the shield wall procs also grant Avatar?

sharp gale
#

Nop

long bone
unborn island
#

And so I just regurgitated what I think Nome was saying šŸ™‚

#

The actual 'golden amount' of haste is all of it

sharp gale
#

Oh ok, it depends on downtime, but yeah 18k is the amount you start thinking about ITF, 4p change a little bit ofc

unborn island
#

I guess.

sharp gale
#

It shouldn’t be that hard to be 20k+ haste now ( I had 21k in S1)

solar crown
#

I heard there's a bug with the tierset for blookd DK that makes it override an existing buff of IBF. Is it the same for warrior/shield wall? e.g. if you have shieldwall active and the tierset procs it will override the existing buff?

I use a macro with thunder and if avaible use sb

hardy holly
#

Keep the uptime higher

vital vale
#

what if you need ignore pain and your thunder will waste rage

#

if you have 10 sec of sb and no ignore pain

#

you dont wanna press sb

hardy holly
#

Ip and sb are always at 80-90% uptime

vital vale
#

well I'm hoping with 4 set sb uptime will be 100%

#

with shield charge cdr

solid sun
#

80-89 is a grade of B, and B stands for bad

lusty grotto
#

youre simming 5 targets for 5 mins, just do single target 5 min or 3 mins... if you wanna do 5 targets go for 1 min or 1.5

#

other than that im glad you didnt stick with old 4pc lol

#

late night "uhh wait a minute..." for me so i had to check with my sims

hardy holly
lusty grotto
#

ip uptime doesnt matter

#

SB uptime does

#

IP uptime ESPECIALLY doesn't matter with Thane

hardy holly
#

I use right now coloss

lusty grotto
#

i see, you said thunder earlier

#

so i assumed you meant mountain thane

hardy holly
#

Ah okay ... but u still use the normal thunder at coloss or not?

#

And keep it on cd

lusty grotto
#

what do you mean

#

do you mean thunder clap?

hardy holly
#

Yes

lusty grotto
#

you use it less depending on rage and ss resets

#

less than mountain thane

hardy holly
#

Use before mountain thane and still have to get into coloss

#

Thanks for the advise

lusty grotto
ionic nimbus
#

I can totally recommend to Switch to Colossus. It’s way more fun.

hardy holly
#

But is thunder clap not a rage gain skill?

lusty grotto
#

yes

hardy holly
#

Why not on cd?

lusty grotto
#

but with free revenges and refunds you might not need it

#

lower damage than revenge itself

#

you still prss TC

hardy holly
#

Ahh i see

lusty grotto
#

but it takes a step back

hardy holly
#

But only if revenge is not free

lusty grotto
#

if SS is on cd (no resets) and youre below a certain amount of rage

#

otherwise you hit SS or revenge

#

and/or if you need to apply rend

#

or refresh it

Yesterday i tanked a 10 Key cinderbrew. In the third pull, left Side of the First room, i Just got meleed at the end of the pull 100 to Zero within 1,5 secs.. really a Lot melee attacks in a short time but was tanking before fine. Any ideas what could be wrong? Dont have a Log..

lusty grotto
#

hmm

#

hard to say without one tbh

#

i was doing that same pull last night as NA got DDoS'd

#

tanked it halfway lagged so i dont think it has bugs or anything

lucid gulch
#

Yes, was really strange

lusty grotto
#

oh wait

#

you meant the first room

#

idk why i thought about the left hallway

#

yeah so

#

those patrons hurt and sometimes while pulling you take back hits

#

i def dip sometimes on that first room if i'm not careful

#

also because of the patron bleed

#

i probably thought you meant the hallway cause thats where we got DDoS'ed and our key died lol

quick iron
#

Don't enemies sometimes ignore you're block if they're on a different elevation too? Could've been standing on a table

lusty grotto
#

its possible

#

but

#

i havent heard that one before

quick iron
#

Tbf it was only something I read on here a few months back

strong forum
#

Elevation shouldn't affect anything unless they're positioned in an angle that they would no longer be technically in front of you

#

At which point, they're behind you

ionic nimbus
#

Die cases Like this, atleast log into details to see what killed ya

#

Better is logs

lusty grotto
#

i had a dip on that run and maybe Avrii can benefit from it, but its incomplete because of DDoS reasons

#

and i def got dunked in one particular pull

ruby musk
lusty grotto
#

yeah it was back hits for me

#

no B means not blocked

#

so yeah its very likely back hits @lucid gulch

Man the only thing Colossus needs is for Revenge to refresh/trigger an IP

For it to play like butter

Actually excited for this patch, usually I skip mid-season's

#

But I love Goblins and new raid looks fun

tepid sigil
#

Eyo my brothers in arms(prot)

I got a myth shield from vault and got 4p, so I'm thinking on crafting a 1h wep. Is it a good idea you reckon? And what embelishment should I put on it?

lusty grotto
#

no embelish

tepid sigil
#

Is any other piece with duskthread more value?

lusty grotto
#

but yeah its a good idea

#

there's not a huge difference but

#

we generally dont want embelishments on weapons since you will likely replace it with a myth one

ionic nimbus
#

Even if you forget the embellishments, you won’t feel it..

lusty grotto
#

3 ilvls on weapon is worth a lot more than bracers etc

ionic nimbus
#

It’s like sockets, they are there, but you dont feel them hehe

tepid sigil
#

I see, so I guess longterm probably bracer better, but weapon should be bigger spice until I get a myth one

#

Aight, thanks both of you!

lusty grotto
ionic nimbus
#

Crafted mythic weapon. Got last season a weapon very early, so now back to old habbits. Waiting til 11.1.5 to get wep and shield from vault….

This new affix is awefull. Nice to watch melees runing into frontals like the Wave from Last Boss in Rookery

hey, anyone that could explain to me how does the priory tank trinket works ?
i dont understand exactly how does the use effect interact and when to use it

strong forum
#

How Does [Tome of Light's Devotion] work?

[Tome of Light's Devotion] has 2 parts, the default tooltip is only 50% of what it does:
Shield Mode:

  • grants armor and magic absorb
    Sword Mode:
  • grants 3k+ crit and huge dmg proc

After you cycle through "50 pages" of either mode, it swaps over to the other, you can force this change by using the on-use.
When using the on-use the mode you swapped to is doubled for 20seconds
meaning 6k crit and 500-1mil hits in sword mode

  • taking dmg advances the pages, ICD is 0.5s

on ST and smaller pulls it ~takes exactly the CD of the trinket to cycle through 50 pages
meaning most of the time you can stay on sword more to get benefit of the huge crit budget and ST dmg proc

  • staying in sword mode is BY FAR the strongest offensive trinket for tanks for priory damage
hazy umbra
#

oooook, so it's basicly not a tanbk trinket but a dps trinket for tank

#

thx a lot mate

strong forum
#

yeah

#

its very sex

ionic nimbus
#

Very good ST dmg

untold isle
#

do you have any wa that notifies you that it swapped to shield ? the trinket

#

I got the one that tracks and shows whats it now, but sometimes i forget myself and am for a while in the shield instead of the sword

#

so some soft tof wa with notifcation like press button go sword would be awesome šŸ˜„

long bone
#

wait wait wait, how does more haste equal lower shield block CD?

lusty grotto
#

sb cd has been affected by haste since forever

#

thats why when you hover over SB, you see the number in green

#

any cds that are affected by haste are that way

#

it has been that way for SB since... way before legion

long bone
#

So if I unequip all my gear it should go way up

dusky canopy
#

@lusty grotto

lusty grotto
#

it has a base cd

#

so no, it wont go way up

#

its just lowered by haste

Just one question for the prot warri. In my vault i have a myth wrist. Ihave two setitem too in the vault. If i take one setitem, i can have the 4 Set Bonus. Is it possible to take the wrist and play one week with 2 setbonus?

plush tendon
#

first shield from raid is off Reverb

#

but the scaling of the Mythic bosses this tier is for sure not like Palace; no instant 4/8 Mythic for us

plush tendon
#

in terms of # of stats

#

and will most likley end up being a place you want to place a crafted/embellished item

#

if the tier options are hero or myth level, I think you take that

sick grotto
#

Are any of the bosses free on mythic havent really been keeping up

jagged pier
#

The first

#

And thats not even 100% free its harder than the first 2 maybe the first from last tier

Do the talent builds on raider.io work for chinese players? i know in the past their armory hasn't been accessible correctly. Wanted to check as a couple prot warriors on the front page from chinese servers appear to be dropping indom for BSV, ravager/battering ram for thunderlord, and instigate for bloodsurge

instigate for blood surge is an interesting one, I've never ran blood surge what's the proc chance

bloodsurge is better for big pull dungeons

instigate is good for workshop/top

its ok

switching to haste/crit would make what diff? more dps?

lusty grotto

but id rather have more crit

more dps and more parry

crit is for blasting

Crit is better for big pulls and for more dmg

Vers is better for unblockable damage

I like balance

got it...still, a crit build is viable for high end m+ ? aiming for just 3k score here

ideally i would end up with a balanced build

arbalest's a big one... at least it was in sl, those guys would just headshot healers sometimes

neon elk
#

I use it as extra mobility

lusty grotto

yup

#

i think you can intervene some point blank aoes so melee keep uptime on that area (the gladiator area)

and also its helpful so your boomie that stands in fucking africa doesnt die to adds on bee boss

while you get threat

thats why i rather drop fear than intervene for big clap

high kernel
#

Do you all bind Ignore Pain to any abilities or just press it when you can? I ask because I know some Druids bind Ironfur to abilities to keep from accidentally wasting rage

lusty grotto
#

isnt that backwards?

mighty valley
#

nah, the cost is too big to be throwing around

lusty grotto
#

you will waste rage by binding ironfur with other abilities

#

you never bind ironfur or IP to anything, that leads to bad play and rage use

high kernel
#

I was kind of thinking that. Seemed odd but I figured I'd ask before doing anything silly

lusty grotto
#

but we do bind SS to IP, just to snipe resets - we just dont use that key to SS

#

only to IP

high kernel
#

Oooo ok! I'll make a macro for that

lusty grotto
#

just make sure you have a separate bind for SS

gilded are capped in delves from what ive heard

30 per week actuallly

yes

read the guide

frosty mango

think they forgot it existed

lusty grotto

i mean

#

youre not wrong

#

even if they buff brews, WW/MW are so good that people wont really pick their tank version

frosty mango
#

imo they will never be able to maintain brew until stagger is gone

#

its just historically impossible to balance for them it seems, its either insanely op or garbage

#

I dunno what the answer is outside of redesigning the mitigation profile away into something new

long bronze
#

change brewmaster into a support role

#

like aug

#

cept you hand out brewskis for the broskis

lusty grotto
#

that'd be my favorite support

#

just by the theme lmao

dusky canopy
#

They should just let brew properly stagger a ton of damage but only if they play around the brews properly

#

We block infinite melees so I think it’d be fair

lusty grotto
#

they would never do that

#

theyd rather have tanks be easier

I’d rather them remove stagger and somehow focus brews around absorbs

#

Hey guys can you pls help? If I have a shield with 50k block and one with 90k block what does it actually do?

pallid quiver
#

Block is what's known as block value. The simplest way to understand it is that the higher the number, the bigger the damage reduction

#

The specific damage reduction is determined by content due to the K-value thing you may have heard around

foggy fox
#

But is it just flat 90k or 50k off the initial hit or does it have some weird scaling? Is it a big jump from 50k to 90k?

pallid quiver
#

If you want more in-depth, you'll want to check out block mechanics and k-value and what not, but

#

yeah going from 50-90 is absolutely massive

#

Block value is the single stat that provides us the most survival, and it's a real good stat, especially since it only comes from one gear source (your shield)

frosty mango
#

On the flip side because it only comes it one slot it makes choosing a shield fairly simple

You also generally end up with only people who care more about damage and improving logging keys, so it can be harder to parse in keys than raid

the parse % on the left notably is strictly correlated to the amount of io gained from the dungeon

the key % on the right is your actual parse % relative to other logged keys at the same key level in the same dungeon

both ML and Workshop cloaks are good

you can sim it
