700k and a golden retriever worth

#

700k even

sharp gale
#

I bet*

strong forum
#

its 6%

cerulean tusk
#

Nome doing 6% = 600k, 100% = 10000k DPS critcake

sharp gale
#

YES

plush tendon
#

math checks out

stiff gate
#

hey there are pulls where you can break 10mil rn so i see no flaws in this math

#

you just gotta get silly with the little cinderbrew bees or the rats after 2nd boss in motherlode... but all the time!

I’m down to 25% UB haste and manage fine with ITF. Def trying to farm CM neck and chest, though. I’m down bad for haste.

If youre not pressing more buttons than fury as prot what are you doing?

#

Hi guys, stats to Raid and M+ is equals ?

cold shadow
#

so a couple of beers in, i feel like i'm feeling the zug, any good prot warrior channels you can recommend (not quazii)?

smoky anvil
#

Oh I didn’t read

#

Lmao that’s tragic.

sharp gale
#

Yep I do one cinderbrew on dk and then one key on warrior bc I’m becoming crazy

smoky anvil
#

I’ve kinda been not farming too hard cuz I’m afraid of burnout. Leading a vanilla guild and that’s kinda exhausting. It’s HR simulator with like an hour and a half of raiding once a week.

sharp gale
#

I did 60 keys on my dk im starting to calm down bc can burnout

smoky anvil
#

Tack on losing basically every item of value from raid on rolls and it’s getting to me a lil

#

Thought I had a cute lil house of cards with a 95 only to have a dude roll a 100

deft cliff
#

I’ve doing good so far got almost all my items bis and got my pacemaker to hero

sharp gale
#

i will not push on my dk 100%

#

just a raid char

cerulean tusk
#

Haste on San' tho

#

soo goood

#

Gotta max it out

sharp gale
#

i will start to push on my prot when i gets tier and don't need hero items anymore

#

next week i get harbringer for runed crest on dk and surely tier on my war

native mantle
#

i have a question regarding the trinket and its stacks: does it matter at how many stacks I use it? or does it only matter what side it's on?

nocturne spindle
#

stacks dont matter from what ive been told and noticed with it

#

its just a counter to when it flips

strong forum
#

"stacks"

#

are only when you flip pages

#

trhe stack itself doesnt do anything

#

its just your counter until you flip mode

wooden gorge
#

How do you guys set brann up for lower ilvl delves 8+?

nocturne spindle
#

Uhh

#

I mean it kinda doesn't matter you fly through them

#

As tank you can do them super easy

#

Even with low ilvl

wooden gorge
#

Healer or dps? I’ve only ran them as vdh this season and that spec kinda busted atm

#

Does it even matter? lol

nocturne spindle
#

I just left mine as dps to make it go a bit faster cause I don't think I died

wooden gorge
#

Nice sounds good, Ty

#

Is there a different M+ build when you get 4s?

#

here comes the anti warr propaganda never fails

jagged pier
#

i mean if u think we arent getting nuked from orbit when the race is over. i dont know what to tell u

mighty valley
#

buff monk, all three specs need to be top tier

toxic pewter
#

its all fake news this community is always out to get us

jagged pier
#

not even the most popular tank in m+

#

and the second least popular in raid

#

but nah lets nerf it

toxic pewter
#

honestly vdh andd prot pala the ones that need nerfs

jagged pier
#

or

#

we just buff the ones that lag behind a bit

stray lichen
#

would it be a good Idea to macro IP and shield slam together?

jagged pier
#

no

#

u will rage starve

#

if u want to macro SS to IP so u snipe resets, and still have another SS bind. thats fine

stray lichen
#

ok thats what I thought. thanks

vocal flame
#

I will remove it

jagged pier
#

u have 3 SWs

#

LS and IV

#

u have so much

#

all the healer needs to do is make sure to dispell u

next pasture
#

i did an 11 priory after being traumatized from that bleed on like, 5s, but i didn’t even notice it. if the healer has eyes you should be good so long as you’re not trolling

vocal flame
#

Since there are only 10% of prot wars in the world that have timed that they feel your pain lol

next pasture
#

the dumb trick is to make sure the healer knows to insta dispel divine judgement

jagged pier
#

seemed fine to me

#

why do ppl think that on the second week of a season things wouldnt hurt, this stuff is tuned to be done in like 675 gearwell probably not that high but a lot of pplwill only do them at that ilvl ish

unborn island
#

You could try being a dwarf as well, or running with an evoker

#

But yeah, it just trucks

chilly brook
#

Didn’t hurt much in my 10/11, just rotating CDs and having a healer that actually presses their dispel

dusky canopy
#

We got a whole 20-25more ilvls to go

#

It’ll get much easier

stiff gate
#

the mini boss at the end was much scarier on 10 than the first boss was

#

but it doesnt really seem like a hard dungeon for tank overall, its mostly on the healer to deal with sharpshooter/impale/leap/sacred toll/purification damage in every pack

vocal flame
#

Healers seem to be sink or swim this season

haughty scroll
#

is there some condition for the second boss in priory to actually cast his shield, i feel like he doesnt as long as i stay in melee. just says the voice line and nothing happens

#

it just really fucks my dps trying to use personals on that shit with pyre rolling into it

chilly brook
round cliff
#

im debating on the fuck them healers build

#

dropping indom so i can take both battering ram AND ravager

fallow wind
violet ginkgo
#

But I mean “big” for warrior is usually still lower than other class’ “big” since we mitigate a lot.

stiff gate
#

honestly didnt notice a difference dropping indom yesterday compared to having it the day before

smoky anvil
long bronze
#

apparently they made it so another spark fragment is available this week?

plush tendon
#

blizz leaving me in a pickle

#

was planning on craft 2H for DK next week

#

but now I can craft 2H

#

but what if I get 2h in vault

#

do I still just hold?

long bronze
#

you send the 15 crests and 2000 valorstones you would have ripped into maxing the wep into something else

rancid tiger
#

Wasted sparks but at least not crests

plush tendon
#

so as much power for that as possible... wep is biggest uppie

rancid tiger
#

Well. Ofc best is to wait. But its always best. So u can wait forever

plush tendon
#

but If I send on wep, and I get it in vault... then I dont have double embellished

sacred badge
#

second spark poggies

rancid tiger
#

I got my 1st 2hander week 13 last time

sacred badge
#

thin im just gonna rip it on a belt since ive never gotten another drop

plush tendon
#

im not used to having the first 2h in the raid being off the wall boss

rancid tiger
#

So its always a gamble.

plush tendon
#

it always was like the first or second boss

rancid tiger
#

U put acendance on 2h

sacred badge
#

maybe i lucksack into reverb wep in box or drop next week

rancid tiger
#

And get a bracer at 639 isnworth it

long bronze
#

at least according to my sim, for prot warrior, going crafted 1H + ascension and sending the 15 unused crests into my myth helm is exactly the same dps as sending all 75 crests into maxing a myth wep and using the spark and free runed crests on boots with dawnthread

#

kinda a lot of words to say, just send it bruh

topaz latch
#

wait, so we are crafting main hand?

long bronze
#

you are doing what you want to do

#

I am crafting main hand

topaz latch
#

i was gonna craft wrists lol

long bronze
#

I have socked wrist and belt already so not in a rush to lock those in

topaz latch
#

i usually craft wrist and shield, and put my embellish on those since i usually dont switch those out

queen mountain
#

when using spark to craft a weapon does it matter if i make sword axe etc?

long bronze
#

no

chilly brook
#

you're going to want to roll prot loot spec until you get a shield in vault

#

3ilvl on shield is still worth fishing for

long bronze
#

I dunno I feel like taking a 3 ilvl upgrade over other potential lock ins not really? I agree with prot vault though...

#

the chase trinkets can drop as prot so doesn't much matter, the Arms vault was because all the tank trinkets fucking sucked

next pasture
#

why is this not marking the dudes in cinderbrew?

long bronze
#

yeah sure

chilly brook
#

comes from nothing else

long bronze
#

but we're talking 2nd week

chilly brook
#

yeah I don't have a problem with crafting a shield

#

the problem I have is with "I put embellish on this because I won't replace it"

long bronze
#

if you already crafted a shield I don't know if taking 3 ilvl over shield would be worth over getting a myth track replacement for a hero track slot

#

this early*

topaz latch
#

i made that mistake once a while ago, with vault shield. never again

chilly brook
#

it's not a mistake though

#

it's the largest impact on your survivability lol

long bronze
#

right, which is why going hero track to crafted/myth is huge

#

but crafted to myth not huge

topaz latch
#

tripple got it

#

you craft and embellish your shield unless you know that youre gonna get a mythic shield in the first two weeks

chilly brook
# long bronze this early*

I'm not advocating that you have to choose it early in the season, lots of shields to fish for in vault

long bronze
#

important? sure. As good as going from hero trinket/helm/legs/chest to myth? no shot

#

I've never died because my shield block value was too low

#

I've died because I fucking suck

chilly brook
jovial cradle
#

question - can anyone explain why Heaviestweight Title Belt is now BiS over recrafting the BiS Everforged belt from s1?

long bronze
#

but regardless, just do prot vaults

topaz latch
#

yeah i do prot vaults anyways

chilly brook
#

embellish isn't hugely important in the first couple of weeks

long bronze
#

myth tome alone is worth it

topaz latch
#

yeah, when i need 2nd embellish IF i replace my shield, ill craft another item, which is likely when im swimming in sparks

#

yeah that myth tome gonna elude me for a hot minute

#

i wouldnt take a plus 3 ilvl shield upgrade over something like that

chilly brook
#

personally myth seaforium pacemaker>tome

long bronze
#

getting myth shield in vault when other options suck is goated, but getting it when there's another good option is decision paralysis time

topaz latch
long bronze
chilly brook
#

but then again I'm not tanking raid

#

just keys

chilly brook
#

just depends on what you're doing

long bronze
#

padding?

chilly brook
#

tome loses value in keys

#

especially the higher you go

#

the longer packs live, the less time you spend in swords

#

it's a good trinket for sure, just less good in keys compared to other options

topaz latch
#

meaning with, crafted belt you dont need that haste/crit

long bronze
#

I just think giving up the ST dam for AOE dam is a throw, and I'm not sure I really agree with the pack's living longer thing unless you're taking naps between pulls

chilly brook
#

Jakey said the same thing about it losing value in higher keys

#

crit also applies to single target dam btw

#

which is what seaforium is, just a massive crit amp

long bronze
#

there's still no contest in ST vs tome

frozen berry
#

what is everyone making with their sparks right now?

long bronze
#

and if you sim 10 target's for 5 min vs 10 targets for 2 min the delta between tomb and pacemaker is the same

#

so I still don't see the "higher keys" arguement

solid sun
#

I crafted a shield first and I’m considering crafting a weapon next

long bronze
#

okay enlighten me

solid sun
#

But I’m also not going to see any myth track items yet

chilly brook
#

first of all did you put the proper apl in for tome?

long bronze
#

yeah brother

chilly brook
#

okay great

#

second portion of that, raidbots is literally simming just hitting the target

long bronze
#

I thought of that too

chilly brook
#

not the hits taken that impact the trinket

long bronze
#

but I looked at the report, and I'm taking damage

solid sun
#

lol getbent

#

Nice

long bronze
#

simming prot with no damage taken makes zero sense, that wouldn't account for our rage gen

chilly brook
long bronze
#

the only argument I see is Pacemaker scales with target count where tome doesn't, if anything tome scales inversely, which I get. But tome is giga enough that doesn't seem to matter

jovial cradle
chilly brook
toxic pewter
#

spent all my crests... cant even craft 2nd item

topaz latch
long bronze
#

lol I agree it looses value, that's obvious, I'm not arguing that. I still think even with reduced value it's not worth swapping it out for something else

#

number of targets matters more than fight length

chilly brook
#

It would absolutely be worth swapping out for house of cards and pacemaker

foggy fox
long bronze
#

what part is confusing

foggy fox
#

This correct?

long bronze
#

how you use it? or how it works?

foggy fox
#

Both

#

I just slapped it on and I run with it not caring about it

long bronze
#

well check wowhead for how you use it

solid sun
#

I think it’s kinda weak for one person to provide sims and the other person to just link to comments in discord. The why is important

long bronze
#

the guide explains it

#

in the gear section

chilly brook
long bronze
#

as for how it works, when you get meleed it stacks up to 50

#

at 50 it flips modes

#

you can force a flip by using the on-use

#

you want to force it when it's in shield mode

#

more melees = changes faster

foggy fox
#

So I don't want to get the shield part from it...?

long bronze
#

if it changes faster than the CD is up, that's a loss for you

chilly brook
solid sun
#

Yeah because there was no reasoning at all

chilly brook
solid sun
#

“Dad said this thing so you’re wrong”

#

Where’s the why

long bronze
#

Griff

chilly brook
#

at least in my experience

chilly brook
foggy fox
#

So the tome is strictly dps trinket..?

chilly brook
#

not really but the damage is what makes it good

#

the defensive aspect is "okay"

topaz latch
#

its only a good trinket if u also use the shield part

solid sun
#

Then why did the sim not agree? What’s the sim missing? Or what is the simmer missing?

long bronze
#

Basically all I'm saying here is Tome gives you more value in ST than pacemaker gives you in AOE, without giving up much because we do giga AOE anyways

foggy fox
#

so like sit on shield and swap to shield if u get swords?

topaz latch
#

i value ST damage a lot more than AOE on prot warr

topaz latch
foggy fox
topaz latch
#

and time your keys, or beat the raid in my case

foggy fox
#

fair

topaz latch
#

the less you use swords, the less great it becomes

#

at its WORST, its actually still a pretty damn decent trink

foggy fox
#

but if the pack is full magic damage it might be cool to use the shield no?

topaz latch
#

i mean i dont

solid sun
#

Stop trying to make shield a thing

pale badge
#

noobish question: does shield reflect magic damage mitigation reduce damage from ticking dots (creeping death or whatever) from creepers in DFC for the 5s it is active? I know it prevents one dot application, just curious if it also reduces damage

topaz latch
#

i drop some defensives and IP (im mountain thane so i have rage) and still use swords

solid sun
#

It’s never gonna be a thing

long bronze
#

I had 83% uptime on sword in a 10 cinderbrew which has huge pulls

#

seems fine to me

solid sun
#

Man f you dude

topaz latch
#

i just want the cinder brew mug trink to be honest.

solid sun
#

F you so hard

#

I tried a big pull with lust at the beginning and we had a cleanup on the bar room floor

long bronze
#

I maintain cinderbrew mug is highly illegal

#

stein*

topaz latch
long bronze
#

it's so bad

topaz latch
#

it looks so fun tho

long bronze
#

it heals less than indom which is bad in itself, and you get like 1000 strength out of it, that's it

#

if I wanted to simp I'd play aug

#

it's totally rng who gets the stat and when

topaz latch
#

man, i never get good trinkets. ever, in any expansion. let me have this

#

you know what i got? 33 gotdamn cloaks, every season

long bronze
#

a 678 stein sims for -150k dps less than my 658 tome

topaz latch
#

what do you think about funhouse lens?

long bronze
#

it's good

urban bane
#

FHL is good yeah

chilly brook
#

can't even log in

topaz latch
#

yeah i actually have FHL, thats why im asking. it might be the only good trinket i get for the next 5 years lol

long bronze
#

funhouse lens is probably our best on use outside of house of cards

#

sadly it maxes out at hero track

topaz latch
#

im honestly surprised some delve trinks are good since they are only hero

long bronze
#

well they are good until you get a myth version of a comparable trinket

topaz latch
long bronze
#

I got lucky and got a heroic mechano-core amplifier so I don't need to farm pacemaker

#

because i'm going to keep tome, as I've made pretty clear lol

topaz latch
#

aw damn yeah i got a heroic mechocore too

long bronze
#

pacemaker and amplifier sim exactly the same for me

sharp gale
#

I like my trinkets clueless

topaz latch
#

theyre decent trinkets

long bronze
#

there's great trinkets wdym

chilly brook
long bronze
#

hmm let me check again

topaz latch
chilly brook
#

apparently I can't log into the game cool

sharp gale
#

Which one is amplifier ?

#

Idk every trinket yet

topaz latch
#

has anyone lused and liked the bombsuit?

chilly brook
long bronze
sharp gale
#

Oh the mécano thing fury farm ?

#

I would simply both 5 t and ST bc 7k diff is no diff

long bronze
#

this is punish though because I don't like thinking about shield block on prog

smoky anvil
sharp gale
#

Big pp

long bronze
#

I just want a hero haste/crit ring so I can get rid of cyrce's

sharp gale
#

I even didn’t farm these, it’s the only trinkets I dropped

forest orbit
#

which ring would you pick (equal ilvl)?

crit/haste
vers/mastery/leech

long bronze
#

sim it

sharp gale
#

Simp it

long bronze
#

no that's the prot pally discord

#

gotem

#

(don't hit me prot pallies are also cool)

sharp gale
#

They have a lot of courage to be pink, I respect them

smoky anvil
#

If I wasn’t lazy I’d make a prot paladin and RP in all m+ and nonstop chain pull. Tack on the Crusader title. “The Crusade waits for no man.”

chilly brook
#

can't even log in to get simc string and run sims for myself

#

wtf blizzard

long bronze
#

just grab it from armory

#

unless you need your bag gear

smoky anvil
#

Bilzaron smoll multi dollar company

#

Be nice

long bronze
chilly brook
#

was going to swap spec

wooden spruce
#

hi everyone!
Small question, what stats are you using? im starting +9 and we getting into heroic with my guild so i want to optimize my build going into higher keystones and even m+ raiding

long bronze
#

you can generate the spec string on wowhead talent calc

#

and paste it in

sharp gale
long bronze
#

or just do it in top-gear and copy your armory talents

pallid quiver
#

there's an extremely unlikely chance that whatever you have doesn't have ilvl increases, and Str slaps all other stats in value

wooden spruce
pallid quiver
#

Realistically, you just sim for most damage

long bronze
#

one day blizz will be able to consistantly make main stat always bis

pallid quiver
#

All secondaries are close enough that there's not really any major difference

sharp gale
#

Just look for haste shit and sim what you got

pallid quiver
smoky anvil
#

Haste is typically first amongst equals. Sim to be sure because no one knows your exact loadout.

sharp gale
#

Floodgate good dungeon to farm for hero track loot imo

pallid quiver
#

I don't think Floodgate is real

smoky anvil
#

It’s just a good dungeon imo. Shits fun.

topaz latch
#

is dawnthread lining not scaling with us?

charred lodge
#

US servers down?

long bronze
#

but strength is not going to be your highest dps stat anymore

smoky anvil
#

Motherlode, priory, and rookery are the dungeons on my shit list so far

long bronze
#

unless your gear is garbo

pallid quiver
#

you're really nitpicking at this point, Trrriple

#

because higher ilvl means higher of both

#

you can't suddenly disentangle str from secondaries

sharp gale
#

Im sitting with 2 sparks on my warrior, the thought of crafting is stronk but I want to wait lel

wooden spruce
#

thanks, im going hard on haste but last season i went haste+crit and was a lot of fun, i was looking on wlogs and people were doing haste+mastery, after that crit and almost no vers

long bronze
#

eh fair,

but

and Str slaps all other stats in value
is just flat wrong so

pallid quiver
#

they come together as a package outside of trinkets, and trinkets have other considerations

long bronze
#

nitpick or not

#

strength is my second lowest value dps stat

sharp gale
#

Yeah it’s more that ilvl is slaps than strength alone

long bronze
#

yep

smoky anvil
#

I sent a crafted shield and will send crafted bracers. Both were my embellish pieces last season. Legit never saw a myth track shield.

sharp gale
pallid quiver
#

that's how RNG goes

sharp gale
smoky anvil
#

Ya, gonna send bracers when I’m out of my wage cage.

chilly brook
#

sim bugging out kekw

smoky anvil
#

Very excited tbh.

sharp gale
#

Im waiting my warrior to be done with hero piece farm / tier to craft

chilly brook
sharp gale
#

Since it’s my alt this tier

long bronze
#

that is some big fuckin dam right there

dusky canopy
smoky anvil
toxic pewter
#

anyone else not get Gallagio Highroller's Bombstone for getting 2500

smoky anvil
#

But prot war gonna be my main

#

It’s too much fun

long bronze
#

mine just showed up in my bags instantly, maybe relog?

chilly brook
#

apparently it doesn't like putting in the custom APL

sharp gale
long bronze
#

you can copy mine (From Nom) If you need Griff

smoky anvil
#

I’m waiting for my war to be in a better spot before I do

chilly brook
#

I copied and pasted from nom's message

toxic pewter
#

ohh lol i was searcing for bombstone like the achievement says but the item is a boomstone

smoky anvil
#

Need this character in maintenance mode

chilly brook
long bronze
#

you need the whole apl, just just the little action line

#

maybe obvious, but just in case

sharp gale
#

Yeah you can’t put just 1 line

chilly brook
#

just funny that it bugged out, I'll just delete and repaste

sharp gale
chilly brook
#

it fixed itself

sharp gale
#

I have bigger pp ilvl than him 👿

long bronze
#

yep that pretty much agrees with my findings

chilly brook
#

You spend most of the dungeon not in 3 targets or less

#

Idk you make the choice on whether 40-50k extra single target is worth it or doing consistently more damage everywhere else

long bronze
#

Yep, I want the ST dam

#

same reason I run authority of the depths over the other one

#

looks like you do too okayge

chilly brook
#

I just had extra enchants 😛

#

haven't bothered actually looking at the difference between the two since getting a new weapon

long bronze
#

same as it's always been

smoky anvil
#

I tend to prefer multi target dam and letting my dps handle single.

long bronze
#

depths = ST radiant power = aoe

smoky anvil
#

I’ll experiment more this season

long bronze
#

I wonder if that secondary stats ones are worth it now / soon with more gear

chilly brook
long bronze
#

it was like 8k or so last time I checked

#

in ST that is

#

I don't look at AOE stuff too much, that tends to just work out

short apex
#

new pb in a 10 babey

chilly brook
#

all I know is I won't get tired of how much dps complain about me riding their ass in damage

gleaming sable
#

how are you meant to do corridor creepers in cleft? i thought u just had to kite them away from the recently dead mobs but that did not help

long bronze
#

the dot hurts

gleaming sable
#

yeah but how do i deal with it?

#

we timed so it's not the end of the world but they hurt a lot on 10 lol

long bronze
#

get healed, run away, or SR one to stop the refresh

shut summit
#

run away screaming, pull as little of them as possible

#

also the sleeping ones give count but don't give the stacking dot

long bronze
#

the screaming part is important

gleaming sable
#

i see

shut summit
#

so those are free af to pull into boss

smoky anvil
#

I’ve been using ritual mud trinket in DFC. Big shield allows time to kite, and it being a debuff means it comes off CD quite fast. That’s one of the only scary parts of the dungeon ime.

gleaming sable
#

yeah it's pretty free otherwise

long bronze
#

@chilly brook you may find this interesting

gleaming sable
#

but that was scary

pallid quiver
smoky anvil
#

It’s def a big investment for a portion of the dungeon that you want to be as small as possible

#

The trinket, I mean

long bronze
#

haste enchant kinda goated?

smoky anvil
#

I just hate risking that part

long bronze
#

guess I should do all the chants

chilly brook
long bronze
#

we must be seeing something different

#

oh

#

sorry that's a difference message you responded to

chilly brook
#

TLDR radiant power doesn't look worth

long bronze
#

nar

#

but the secondary stats might be

chilly brook
#

yeah maybe?

chilly brook
#

less delta between aoe and st

long bronze
#

that's all of um

#

instead of just the haste one

chilly brook
#

in comparison to the delta on the dot vs str

#

crit goes silly

long bronze
#

colossus goes brr

chilly brook
#

I think I ended up doing something similar in DF

#

doing secondary enchants in S2

long bronze
#

do note these include a wep change, so these values are inflated, it's the same wep so relative to each other the same

chilly brook

why is this sword not discounted??? for upgrades?

chilly brook
#

yea delta is nicer between the two on the crit enchant

long bronze
#

yeah

#

basically half the price too

unborn island
next pasture
#

damn, that's unfortunate... i feel like i've upgrades weapons a lot

nocturne spindle
#

need both slots at whatever level for stuff to be discounted

austere cosmos
#

seems odd since upgrading a 2 hander first discounted 1hander and shield

nocturne spindle
#

games jank but since a 2H is both slots

#

idk

#

its just doesnt work tm

austere cosmos
#

crafting shield would discount the 1 hander if u were considering that most likely though

pallid quiver
#

Every spec (except Fury) needs to level both main and offhand up before getting discounts

#

Since there's specs tha dual wield (Enha, Frost DK, Rogues), specs that use 2Hs (a lot), specs that use 1H and Shield,

#

So you need both slots up to stay relatively fair

#

A 2H costs more to upgrade than a 1H or Shield as a compromise

#

But if it just drops at a higher level, that bypasses that a bit

#

just like how if you use 2H, you only need 1 hand slot drop at all to be done

#

Fury's the exception since they need two 2Hs, so they get a freebie pass since somebody has to if there's a rule breaker like Fury

rough ridge
#

can anyone provide a bit of insight on why getting a high ilevel shield (or crafting one) is better early than a weapon? (according to wowhead if I am reading correctly)

long bronze
#

block value

#

the bulk of pwar mitigation is block, it only comes from your shield

#

early in season living is usually more of an issue than damming, so shield is usually the smart move. It's not a throw to craft wep first if you want the dam more

rough ridge
#

thanks for the clarity, I appreciate that! Makes sense to me

austere cosmos
#

1 hander or 2nd thread item better for 2nd craft with shield crafted 1st

long bronze
#

depends if you want the immediate dam of a crafted wep vs locking in a permanant slot for the season

#

crafted wep isn't BiS

jagged gust
#

If you're gonna run fury for vault i'd wait another week to craft main hand just in case you get lucky

long bronze
#

for myself, by the time I care about the delta between myth wep and crafted wep, I'm swimming in sparks and crests so I don't really care about the "waste"

jagged gust
#

I crafted a shield, waiting on 2nd vault for if I craft a weapon or 2nd embellish in bracer/cloak slot

#

I'm just running another sim rn to double check my numbers, but overall embellishes are a big nothing burger in terms of gains and you shouldn't be too concerned over them

#

yeah taking a 9ilvl loss on bracers to hold on to my S1 embellish is a .7% dps gain (With worse stats on the new bracers)

he seems pretty stressed on the video

of course he would be, he earns some money playing the game and streaming

Let's wait to see what happens

nothing will happen really

I'll play devils advocate but if i was on his place, i would not be so nervous knowing i did nothing wrong and have a platform

He seems VERY nervous

#

Maybe he did not cheat per se

lusty grotto

nah

ornate spire

but used something that he knew could be detected as cheat

Coincidentally on the same server as the gallywix exploiters so I’d assume it’s somehow related

ornate spire
#

I don't think he cheated

#

But i think he did use something for convenience that could trigger a ban

#

And he's nervous because it's kind of a gray area

lusty grotto
#

i mean for all we know blizzard banning some random shit like hall effect keyboards

lusty grotto
#

then in that case, false flag

ornate spire
#

I've read that the "exploit" was using macros to use spells that should not be possible to use

austere cosmos
#

my brother got a 6 month ban for a macro to target a vendor and buy an item that he was manually clicking they are really cracking down nowadays

ornate spire
#

More of an oopsie from blizz

lusty grotto
#

if there was a ban wave then its likely the DDoS is related, though its weird that its only happening on NA servers

Shield block is always important

#

Ignore pain only to be used if you are gonna max your rage really

mighty valley
#

Yeah - try to have shield block up at all times you're taking melee damage

Press IP when your rage is high to make sure you don't overcap

You can generally keep it that simple

what are you guys going for crafting this week?

cant decide the second piece

mighty valley

do you have access to a big shield via other means

crimson bolt
#

not really...only have a regular hero shield from Priory

#

but I do have a crappy weapon from last season

mighty valley
#

shield's the most important defensive slot, weapon will probably give you the biggest damage boost for Right Now

#

but tbh damage is unlikely to be what's holding you back

#

maybe just wait til next vault since it's late in the week

soooo is prot war going to pull a prot pally and become meta once it can live high keys?

if i was a betting man

i would not put money on prot warrior becoming meta

technically

since we're the raid tank

we're "meta"

its been a while since we've been hard slotted into RWF tank slots

should I focus on keeping my old 4 set, or should I upgrade every piece as I get it and go for ilvl? or where can I find the answer? 😛

for tier, dps = surv

lusty grotto

s1 tier defensive set bonuses suck dick

smoky anvil

Further, for survival, you’re best off jumping ilvl almost always.

In reality, survival is more buttons than gear until truly pushing big keys and big content

distant marsh

I'm struggling to do much past a 10

balmy pier

yeah the 4 piece is just 3% less dmg and some harder claps, which does sound good, but now I have 3 pieces that are +30 ilvl but they would break my set, and most have haste crit or haste verse

gotcha gotcha, thanks a lot nimchip

5x does mean 5 number of bosses

just bosses

I tanked on a DH for 3 expansions and I main fury now, I just tank for keys to help guildies. Prot plays way different than DH

occasionally it’s right to press IP to survive something RIGHT NOW that would otherwise kill you but most of the time, you shouldn’t overthink “ip uptime”

distant marsh

I focus too much on IP uptime

sb is your “keep this up always” buff

Yeah I would prio SB over IP, but I'd spam IP too much and get fucked with a 2-3 second SB void

we get SO much from every point of rage spent that you want to keep it flowing

I felt like prot played better last season. I only did a few keys as prot tho

#

In terms of button mashing

#

Could be all in my head tho 😂

last season’s thane had such bonkers rage gen and so few gaps to be filled with revenge that you really could just wildly press IP and be mostly fine

I think that's where my mind set still is.

the rule of thumb was roughly the same (press IP to prevent overcap) but that was just… most of the time lol

Well yea tclap is solely for applying rend and fishing for shield slams when low on rage with no procs, but hitting shield slam is going to net you more survivability and more damage in the long run. If im capped on rage I just send the excess on ignore pain rather than ignore shield slam. If you ignore any generating you’ll end up dry and no room for ignore pains.

Just take the first stacks on the chin, then leap away for the reset using wall and IP to keep it safe.
Using intervene to get away is also decent.

cerulean tusk
#

i need to upload every log of me playing colo

sharp gale
#

I did another 13 million on first pack of cinderbrew

wicked pollen
#

im bursting as high as other dps with full cds

cerulean tusk
#

Ye, playing Fury with BDK made me sad 😢

sharp gale
#

Tank doing damage = FUN

cerulean tusk
#

True and real

sharp gale
#

Even on my warrior (not geared yet) I like it

cerulean tusk
#

As long tank is a bit behind equal skilled/geared DPS, tanks should be able to pump

#

Feels good being able to carry a bad dps as tank, instead of the key being dead

sharp gale
#

Yeah when I do 2.8m in actual skill group, the others are 3.5+

#

I don’t mind being a little behind

cerulean tusk
#

Being ahead would be wrong fr

sharp gale
#

But I hope my presence in cinderbrew 8-10s (so being top damage sometime) will not create trouble eheh

#

I need that fucking neck

@cerulean tusk @sharp gale @wicked pollen @lusty grotto you don't understand a thing i have tried to do +10s as a colo prot and i memorized all optimal routes with pulls etc on internet the problem is in pugs if you do some chunky of 2 packs pulls or for example first pull with bl , alot of members doesn't bother to interrupt or cc the adds or use defensive that resulted in alot of wipes and deaths , it's not about the numbers it about how you play correctly

A lot of bruised egoes in low keys till I get my flood trinky

its a game

#

also this is just a chat, dont be mad at people doing well

cerulean tusk
#

I still have no clue why you are mad

lusty grotto
#

you wouldnt want people to be toxic cause you yourself did well

Maybe Notche is underperforming? If so, just don't worry about it. It is week 2, ppl and you will become better with time

Miss a trickshot deadge

sharp gale
#

I don’t pull them on the first pull

cerulean tusk
#

But you a BDK

#

Coward

sharp gale
#

Yep i prefer having a billion more melee hitters by grabbing the pack behind the shack

cerulean tusk
#

I do the same, get em for the mass AoE and perfect %

sharp gale
#

I want to see the dps of my group doing 10m+ with only 1 caster

@lusty grotto @cerulean tusk let's say you funky or Nimp started motherlorde +10 or higher and you have an optimal route planned in your head to time it with ease you decided to bloodlust pull first packs based on the most upvoted route on the internet but you kept wiping cause interrupts or cc were less at this point do you blame yourself as a tank and take the shame that you pricked the key or you go like a chicken pulling each pack 1 time which is never presented in any +10 route , or let's say you kill the first boss of motherlorde you went to pull the extractor and another pack with him , people kept dying couldn't handle it cause its 2 packs plus the pulsy guy on ground now what do you feel , are you a bad tank cause you did a regular 2 packs based on the guides or you should slow down and pull 1 pack each like a sissy at +10

Holey wall of text

#

Aight give me a sec

lusty grotto
#

uhh

sharp gale
#

I have no route for Motherlode I press W

cerulean tusk
#

Ok, I am still confused. Why are you attacking a another guy for doing well

lusty grotto
#

why would you think youre a bad tank in that scenario

#

did you die yourself?

idk i always double pull after 1st boss

sharp gale
#

Ofc you can feel guilty, you think you wiped solely because of you, or that if a wipe could have been prevented by you (routing) it means you caused it ?

cerulean tusk
#

So Notche, why were you mad at the guy linking his little ego boost moment?

Gameplay is all about adapting and learning, just go again and it will be sorted out

lusty grotto
#

if they are having problems around the ground aoes, just pull the double to 1st boss room

lusty grotto
#

yeah i mean funky is right, there's no need to be mad at others for unrelated reasons

sharp gale
#

Double extractor = I want to punish casters with hell keks

livid granite
sharp gale
#

Sometime I do

lusty grotto
#

doable if you pull back lmao but yeah

#

probably not recommended

cerulean tusk
#

It was the standard pull for quite a few routes. Just stagger so melee get to happy feet DPS

#

Not recommend for sure keks

wicked pollen
#

@livid granite you need to calm the fuck down

livid granite
wicked pollen
#

???

#

i have infinite logs of me doing better than him

#

thats nothing

#

0 reason to bring anyone down

sharp gale
#

But for context @livid granite : I don’t push, I lurk in 10s on bdk, I might push when my war is rdy
