Very indepth reply , nice talk

This nerf doesn’t really affect players doing weekly keys sure. keys above the weekly 10 this nerf is disappointing because prot is doing one thing decently well, different than other tanks and that’s damage. Prot warrior has no viable utility or out play potention such as prot paladin/vengeance DH.

I’m trying to be nice, but it looks like you only do weekly 10 keys with an 11 sprinkled in. Looking at the log review of your 10 cinderbrew nobody got remotely close to 20k on that pull. You’re misspeaking.

I don't care about the nerf.. I wish they'd just revert the APM changes they made going into this patch.. the empty globals feel kinda bad

You can always just block someone if you think they're an asshole, though it is funny to try and publicly shame people.

I would recommend just blocking instead of cluttering the chat with slop, though, if you're going to take issue

sudden lynx

Also the pocket watching

saying someone is "out of their depth" and leaving it at that, with no real criticism looks bad, and that's not very nice.

If you don't, you've either over sent on IP or over sent on execute

so prot war will be dead next week ? We are going to lose the only reason to be invited in m+. A nerf to dmg is also a nerf to survivability because leech is one of the main self-heal sources

glacial skiff
#

Nobody’s doing 20m on a key less than a 10. Full stop.

Yea so? U can clearly see i did more than 1 run , never said it was on 10 ?

There is something with parry on demon spikes or so, idk how significant it is for them

hello, some1 have a WA for announcing when a spell target me ? so i can preshot the Reflect..?

vocal flame
#

Prob not and they will continue to be Meta but always nerf prot critcake

neon elk
#

I mean, its not like our nerf is a huge one and even if they nuke down vdh to oblivion ppal will be "meta" again most likely

vocal flame
#

Mist got destroyed lol

quasi jewel

Not really

vocal flame

We will see what happens

sand condor
#

Why do we get nerfed on the one thing that we excell at over dh/ppal

quasi jewel
#

Mw was doing more than double any other healers damage.

sand condor
#

Sigh

vocal flame
#

Yeah it was stupid.

#

Maybe thane will be the way to go now idk

lime mantle
# vocal flame Cool how they don’t touch DH or Prot pally lol

VDH got a big nerf, if u think about it it got a 33.3% (repeating, ofc) nerf!

Tank balance being clownshoes party is nothing new, at least we are still at the "2+ tanks are high key viable and you see the other tanks in weekly keys" state of the meta.

vocal flame
#

5% to parry is a big nerf? Not sure I don’t play them. Doesn’t seem so

lusty grotto
#

not really

lime mantle
# vocal flame Maybe thane will be the way to go now idk

Nope, the colossus nerf is 5% AoE, 2% ST, which is also not really a big deal. Like warrior still is high DPS monster in joke keys and it still flatlines/does nothing in super high keys.

Also, it isn't, that is the joke™️.

neon elk
#

Tbf none of the nerf are big ones , apart from maybe monk but their healing will still be fine

vocal flame
#

Think you have it backwards. Shield slam alone is 5% reduction

lime mantle
#

If you go by this, warrior loses at most 5% so avg 1.5->1.425

vocal flame
#

If you’re pulling 400mil on that it’s a decent amount

#

That’s not a big enough sample to say anything really. Blizzard has the real numbers.

lime mantle

#

2nd craft question: weapon or 2nd embellishment?

vocal flame
#

Yeah prob do it when I get home

lime mantle
#

At most the average warrior damage sorta goes to BDK level, but it fixes neither of their issues (the tank dps differential is also not big enough atm for the meta choice being 'whoever hits the hardest')

vocal flame
#

I agree

#

So damage nerf doesn’t make sense.

#

Unless they are adding utility down the road which I highly doubt

#

Maybe we can wear a shield on our back lol

vocal flame
spring summit
#

only from vault

lime mantle
# vocal flame So damage nerf doesn’t make sense.

It's a minute slap on the wrist, like the VDH nerf because blizzard has historically not given a flying shit about tank balance, more so in M+ (Hell, if a season has 2 viable tanks 4 weeks in, that season is very diverse). If not ask monks keks

Also warrior is never getting any meaningful utility because it seems blizzard doesn't want tanks with BL and warrior is good enough for government work in raid with the semi-unique commanding.

lime mantle
vocal flame
#

The brewmaster 3% damage buff is hilarious.

#

I think AI is running class tuning at blizzard

naive laurel
#

seems like either hero talent is good in m+?

lime mantle
#

They don't really care about tank tunning and never have.

naive laurel
#

or is there a clear winner to choose which one to practice on?

lime mantle
vocal flame
#

No they do just certain classes

naive laurel
#

gotcha, thank you!

lime mantle
#

And more fun imho.

vocal flame
#

Yeah col is awesome

lime mantle
#

Unnerf thane and the APM changes 😔

obtuse egret
#

hoping I can still pug high keys and this nerf dont kill my stock

lime mantle
vocal flame
#

^

lime mantle
#

Less because "It bad now" but because (as seen here) people see 5% or other big numbers and assume the class is literally dead in the water.

vocal flame
#

Depends on what you’re doing

naive laurel
#

was looking at the top m+ers for prot, we dont take indomitable anymore??

vocal flame
#

5% is significant in the grand scheme of things and so are the AOE nerfs IMO. Maybe I’m chicken little here but doing napkin math is no bueno

#

We all knew it was coming lol

lusty grotto
naive laurel
#

crying

lusty grotto
#

is even worse now with the rage changes

lime mantle
lusty grotto
#

Yeah

pallid quiver
#

It got nerfed to half value at the start of TWW, and the lower rage economy means you're fueling even less rage into it

#

You're still less tanky without it, but it's not a meaningful difference now due to repeated hits from multiple directions

lime mantle
#

I'll try to drop it for ravager or bsv then

vocal flame
#

Def drop for rav

lime mantle
#

Starting to try 12s and maybe 3k but I am likely too undergeared for it (I need hands, but irl).

timid wigeon
#

but colossus still beats thane in AoE

mighty valley
#

thane already does more st in a lot of fights

#

although the SS nerf hits them harder lol

timid wigeon
#

so it's equal out

#

not sure which one should I play next week to tbh

vocal flame
#

Col 🫡

#

Ride together die together

timid wigeon
#

ST dps is more important, but Colossus AoE dmg is too big to ignore

lime mantle
mighty valley
#

you already could

drifting lance
#

u just play whatever sims higher if its pure st

#

if demolish has value u play colossus

lime mantle
mighty valley
#

i'm afraid there's nothing in the patch notes about your brain cells

vocal flame
#

lol

#

Plus mixing it up a bit is fun

#

Thick veiny TCs

#

Vs Thick veiny revenge

timid wigeon
#

unless they buff Thane's AoE

lime mantle
#

It's over, the debuff won't go away 😔

#

I haven't had time (or will) to raid this or last patch ngl

west turtle
#

just a quick question

#

do I need the 4 pc tier set to do the lvl of damage that other prot warrs do?

#

I'm kinda fresh off Season 1

naive laurel
#

yes

neon elk
#

Naaah, depends

#

In most dungs u can do like 2m overal without set ( not as full s1 gear tho i guess)

#

But it depends on many things

frank badge
#

does leech worth to use? or should i keep get more haste? the boots from motherlode?

#

seeing my leech is number 2 healing

vocal flame
#

That’s a lot of leech.

#

Has anyone heard of people not being able to release in the rookery after wiping on 1st boss?

turbid marten
#

It's a good thing they're nerfing prot warriors, they were rampant in keys

cerulean tusk
#

One could say we were demolishing keys

frank badge
#

same ilvl

#

both 658

lusty grotto
#

Or better stats

frank badge
#

leech or haste is better?

cerulean tusk
#

If he got plenty of haste, then he could flex it in

lusty grotto
#

Your leech does work only because of your damage and talents, not because you have some on gear

#

Sims takes a priority

frank badge
#

so leech on gear it doesnt worth more than haste?

lusty grotto
#

No

mighty valley
#

Tertiaries basically never change your gear decisions, they’re just nice tiny bonuses

lusty grotto
#

What harrow said

cerulean tusk
#

Up to you to decide, the more leech you stack. The better it is. And haste isn't super better than Vers/mast, just better in general

lusty grotto
#

Nah

#

Remember leech got severely nerfed in TWW

frank badge
#

i see, i just wanna farm get the bis gear

lusty grotto
#

We aren't playing BFA or legion

frank badge
#

so need the boots from motherlode for the haste

cerulean tusk
#

Nim you gonna force me to go 2h leech prot keks

#

If only I had the time and gold sadge

lusty grotto
#

Looking forward to it HyperRatJam

cerulean tusk
#

Leech still a +10m on BoEs?

#

Probably

lusty grotto
#

Idk I dropped a hero mail helm with leech on the AH a few hours ago for 800k

#

Gotta see if it sold

zinc valley
#

No pins in this discord?

cerulean tusk
#

Hero... Track, 800k, w3

lusty grotto

BOE I mean

cerulean tusk
#

We got 📌 why

zinc valley
#

Bugged I guess showing none

lusty grotto
#

They work for me

cerulean tusk
#

Works for me, try restarting discord?

lusty grotto
#

We live and die by the pins

cerulean tusk
#

I like pins, cause you can tell Nome's mood based on them (before the edit)

lusty grotto
#

Lol

cerulean tusk
lusty grotto
#

Supposedly 800k was the average with regional avg of like 1.2 mil

#

But I guess those are RWF prices

cerulean tusk
#

No way you sell it for more than 350k w3

lusty grotto
#

Yeah, probably

cerulean tusk
#

This week BoEs will unlock, no?

#

I am gonna buy myself a belt and shoulders peepoBlush

lusty grotto
#

Good question

cerulean tusk
#

I don't raid, it is the only path open to me to keep up to those that do sadge

#

how much haste do you need before you can use into the fray over heavy reprecussions for m+?

cerulean tusk
#

Ppl say around 20k. As long you for 100% uptime on shield block you are fine, and new tier do grant some additional coverage

fluid widget
#

hmmm damn im unfortunately mastery heavy and at 12k. Ill see what uptime i can maintain

jagged gust
#

12k's gonna feel real bad with itf

cerulean tusk
#

If you are mast heavy, just HR and enjoy the life of melees tickling you with 85% SB DR

#

The most tanky I felt in S1, was full mast/crit. Whites didn't even move my health bar keks

fluid widget
#

yeah all the healers have said that healing me is chill af

#

Besides the creepers, nothings been too rough

cerulean tusk

Glad they finally can be dispelled. Kiteing isn't fun

Imagine having healers that dispel 🥲

cerulean tusk
jagged gust
#

(I had an unfun time in a floodgate recently)

onyx vessel
#

Nah I have like 22% haste with into the fray with like 90% block uptime

#

Before into the fray

cerulean tusk
#

90% critcake
That is 100% active, right?

onyx vessel
#

Whole key?

#

With hr you get like 98% while you running the key cuz its always at 24seconds

sick grotto
#

is everyone running colossus these days?

#

over thane this season?

onyx vessel
#

Demo pogox

cerulean tusk
#

Most are, Thane still works

#

Ppl just finally accepted that big crit is fun

onyx vessel
#

Thane is good if you wanna do less dmg and take slightly less

sick grotto

watch your dps skyrocket does feel good

Leech from Demolish is like a mini victory rush

cerulean tusk

Go from bottom to top, making DPS panic is fun

Probably struggle less on early into a pull threat when your first rounding them up

sick grotto

make them sweat and press buttons early

sudden lynx

Do you people ever sleep

onyx vessel
#

I just hit revenge like 4 times while rounding a pack up

cerulean tusk

Then demo doesn't crit sadge

sick grotto

i had no problems with threat gen im just guessing its less ip uptime

Colossus just requires you to be better at rage management

onyx vessel
#

Early into a pull if you got rets dumping instantly maybe

lusty grotto
#

But good play and IPs won't really suffer much, not that it matters

sick grotto
#

ahh ok will have to try it again

onyx vessel
#

Bubble or die for being dumb I guess

sick grotto
#

just felt like colossus had decent amount less rage gen

#

but i think they nerfed thane

lusty grotto
#

Any ret that dumps on the first pack is an idiot

#

And deserves the death

sudden lynx

Aoe taunt first pull and we good

lusty grotto

Let the rets die

sick grotto

#

It's good

lusty grotto

They are fucking losing so much dps by dumping into the first pack anyway

#

Might as well be dead

onyx vessel
#

Ret hater gladge

sick grotto
#

you guys arent running bsv this season?

lusty grotto
#

Trust me Ive played ret a fair amount

onyx vessel
#

Nah just run bombsuit

#

Better bsv

lusty grotto
#

Mfers can't catch my damage and I wait until the pull is done

sick grotto
#

ahh a trink?

onyx vessel
#

9m shield pogox

lusty grotto
#

Bsv is played, yes

onyx vessel
#

I use it pull huge wicked

lusty grotto
#

Just not for non challenging keys

#

Waste of a talent if you're not in any risk

sick grotto
#

yeah for sure outside of creepers damage seemed manageable

lusty grotto
#

Creepers are so easy now with the dispel change

#

So idk

onyx vessel
#

I mean if you running 10s it's the dps who tend to die way before you

#

Even in a huge pull

sick grotto
#

yeah pretty much feels weird compared to season 1

#

have to think about the group dieing before myself

lusty grotto
#

I mean

#

That was the case in s1 too

sick grotto
#

yeah a bit more so in s2 i feel tho

onyx vessel
#

I just watch people die to a 2 pack pull I'm like keksquad shoulda just ran 5 tank

lusty grotto
#

Not really

sick grotto
#

but i havent tanked a crazy amount

lusty grotto
#

S1 was way harder

#

For the group

onyx vessel
#

True

lusty grotto
#

You might just be seeing undergeared shit lords, which is understandable given that it's week 4

#

Err 3

#

People that don't understand how the dungeons work

sick grotto
#

its still crazy to me the disparity between some groups

onyx vessel
#

Check if they got 4pc of s2 or kick em in your made groups

sick grotto
#

like some struggle on 1 or 2 pull others can 4 pull

lusty grotto
#

Like standing on top of the rock throwers in DFC

I feel like I need PhD to use it

sick grotto

had a look at bombsuit looks pretty good

lusty grotto

Not hard

sick grotto
#

have to get lucky on some gally kills

lusty grotto

Track the trinket, use when it auto swaps

onyx vessel

That's it

Always sucks seeing smaller numbers

idk why blizz doesn't enjoy tanks enjoying the game

onyx vessel

I mean people posting doing 3m overall

#

Bit too strong

warm girder
#

good dps would still be ahead

onyx vessel
#

Only dh is allowed to do this cuz they cant balance that class properly

wooden robin
#

Yeah

warm girder
#

vdh is shit dps tbh not even fun either

slender bison
#

VDH is horrible to heal though. Needs way more babysitting than prot

lusty grotto
onyx vessel
#

5 tank squad with it keksquad

wooden robin
#

The survivability with their dps output is still solid. I'm just shocked I didn't see anything about prot pally

onyx vessel
#

Value pogox

lusty grotto
#

They prefer to nerf one of the least played tanks

#

But it wasn't a big deal

sick grotto
#

they didnt nerf vdh?

lusty grotto
#

It's damage control for perception

sick grotto
#

its like the most played

slender bison
#

Last time prot warr was meta Obama was president clueless

onyx vessel
#

Brewmaster is least played

sacred harness
#

g u h

onyx vessel
#

We are probably tied with dk and bear

#

Pally and dh top

lusty grotto
#

Dk might pull ahead now

#

Oh

#

You mean pop size

slender bison
sacred harness
#

Blood DK has always been top

warm girder
#

good dps will always be ahead

onyx vessel
#

Brewmaster is always lowest played for m+ cuz they refuse to fix there issue

lusty grotto
onyx vessel
#

Stagger is bad for big pulls

lusty grotto

No need to put that guy here

onyx vessel
#

Yoda isn't well liked here

lusty grotto

Eh

#

That's not accurate

onyx vessel
lusty grotto

But he had some fucking cooked as beans takes last season

onyx vessel
lusty grotto
#

Made absolutely no sense

#

The document he made was just vomit inducing

onyx vessel
#

I mean he did hide Colo for s2 pogox

#

Still using Thane all ptr

lusty grotto
#

Nope

#

He was one of the first to post about damage

#

Which is fair, I don't hold him against it

#

As long as it's accurate

#

And not full of bad takes like his s1 doc

onyx vessel
#

I'm not surprised prot got nerfed cuz of the stuff they were doing in the race for raid

lusty grotto
#

Ofc

onyx vessel
#

Colo prot ST is kinda gross

lusty grotto
#

It's a factor

#

But..

#

Thane pulls ahead in ST

#

Theres just a handful of cleave fights

onyx vessel
#

clueless it does

#

Didn't know this

lusty grotto
#

And with 4 mages they have no room for arms warriors on execute phase fights

warm girder
#

i just starting gear the warrior so it just kinda sucks lol, grinded a lot of m+ when i had a chance and the build was fun to play for big aoe pulls

lusty grotto
#

But - 3% dmg on fire mage WHEW

lusty grotto
#

Tf is this autocorrect lmao

onyx vessel
#

Yeah I doubt you going to see alot of people on the high end playing thane

#

Thane is kinda boring

lusty grotto
#

For big st fights?

#

They should

I play Mountain Thane, am I even going to notice a change?

sick grotto
#

i like thane personally

onyx vessel
#

Like what keys wise?

lusty grotto
#

Execute phase also benefit from thanes rage gen

onyx vessel
#

I just run 1 build for raid and m+

lusty grotto
#

I'm not talking about keys lmao

onyx vessel
sick grotto
#

the execute build on thane hits pretty hard

onyx vessel
sick grotto
#

especially if your ot

#

feelsgoodman

lusty grotto
#

Yeh

onyx vessel
#

Colo execute is just like hey I ripped threat

sick grotto
#

i feel like that happens on any build in raid

#

cotank just needs to not be bad or taunt on cd

lusty grotto
#

Thane execute builds are stronger

novel pike
#

I play and enjoy thane, seems strong

#

The document by Nome on wowhead recommends thane for everything by a small margin so went with that

lusty grotto
#

Uhh

#

Colo is giga ahead in aoe, you might have misread

hard cliff
#

when you jump down the hole in darkflame cleft after 1st boss, some mobs just stuns me for 4-5 seconds, is there a way to prevent this?

lusty grotto
#

Move out of the circle

torn gulch
#

you get bonked

lusty grotto
#

Its put under you, the tank

torn gulch
#

you move out of bonk

hard cliff
#

okay perhaps im blind if i didnt see the circle

#

ty lol

lusty grotto
#

So keep moving

sick grotto
#

there is a 2 second stun there as well

onyx vessel
#

Just demo the circle cant get cc

lusty grotto
#

Also true

onyx vessel
#

Ignoring mechs like a dk

hard cliff
#

appreciate it yall

onyx vessel
sick grotto
#

give avatar stun immunity so we can chad up more often

onyx vessel
#

That's a pvp issue not pve

novel pike
lusty grotto
sick grotto
#

i think its a smidge outdated

lusty grotto
#

That article is old

#

It's s1 old

novel pike
#

Oh really geez lol

onyx vessel
#

Thane is better for newer players to the spec tho

lusty grotto
#

Look at the date

onyx vessel
#

Demo can get you killed if your real bad

novel pike
#

I am new this season yeah didn't look at date though just scrolling FAQ and pins

lusty grotto
#

Go straight to the guide

novel pike
#

Okay thanks

lusty grotto
#

It's always updated

onyx vessel
#

Hit the back deadge

lusty grotto
#

Old articles aren't

hard cliff
#

oh boy i got my first floodgate key, i should probably watch a video on that hellhole first

#

first as a tank i mean

neat vector
#

Yo why the nerfs

jagged gust
#

it's the man trying to keep the brown class down

waxen frigate
neat vector
waxen frigate
#

Nerf tuah

neat vector
jagged granite
#

Inagine not being S tier and still copping nerfs

vital vale
#

whats even the point of colossus if its not allowed to chunk dmg

#

if they wanna nerf colossus they shouldnt nerf dmg they should nerf surv

#

make it a risk reward spec

#

but if it deals the same dmg as thane, what does it even do then

neon elk
#

Even after nerf colo is gona do more than thane so its still fine

vital vale
#

yeah it still does more

#

but enough more to justify losing thane's rage gen?

neon elk
#

Yes

vital vale
#

alright

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

cerulean tusk
#

They didn't Nerf Demolish, just revenge. So it is all good 👍 we will just see demo be 20% of our dam, instead of 18%

void oak
#

then we still play colossus we just lost a bit of dps?

vital vale
#

i guess its better to not be too incentized to spam revenge

cerulean tusk
#

You still gonna, to reset demo

vital vale
neon elk
#

Yea nothing gotta change realy

void oak
#

what % of dps we lost in total? 5/10? or less?

cerulean tusk
#

5% ish? Sounds about right, maybe half of that on ST

vital vale
cerulean tusk
#

I use the same thing peepoBlush

neon elk
#

How much dmg is the armor tho?

void oak
#

nice thing to do, war tank was fun and people like to play it... we need to nerf

neon elk
#

Probably less than crit but wondering by how much

vital vale
#

no less

#

no wait more

#

im a warrior im not supposed to do math

#

i think about 160 str

#

without tome's armor

#

with tome's armor

#

0.06 parry

#

and 1.17% dmg reduction

#

woaw

#

but crit goes up by 8%

#

in damage mode

#

so always go dmg mode

prisma crane
tawdry dirge
#

Guess we stull stay on coloss and not going thane or?

prisma crane
#

prob still can go both, if anything they're probably closer now

tawdry dirge
#

Fair

umbral loom
#

Hey , tried my First cinderbrew +10. Went Not so well thanks to the right Wing. Got knocked over by the DOT. Any Tips?

void oak
#

people dont like to play tank, what we can do to make them play the role....nerf the tank

#

and the top tank is the jumpy demon

prisma crane
#

and will stay top

#

if you get 1 point for last, 6 for first, etc, only tank historically worse is monk lol

#

and we're also the only 2 who havent been meta for a whole season since BFA

#

those DF S4 %s look real solid...

void oak
#

also the war within s1 are not so ba

#

bad

prisma crane
#

until they saw pally was doing really poorly

#

so they said, no, cant allow it

#

then gave them the kryptonian yellow sun treatment

#

meanwhile all we do real well atm is damage, gotta make sure that's in line

#

oh and must make sure nearly all spell reflects dont actually reflect anymore

tawdry dirge
#

I kinda dont get it dmg is the one thing we should be really good at... Cause we cant keep up with utility vs a pala or dh

thin marten
#

any other fucking idiots who only like playing brew or protwarrior

prisma crane
#

fucking pally have the batbelt

#

VDH still have the most control

void oak
#

i belive i will try to play arms

prisma crane
#

obviously the sky isnt falling, we'll still be ok, just sucks, blizz has zero devs that actually enjoy prot warrior

void oak
#

but nerf hammer incoming for them too

prisma crane
#

that said, between us and monks, one of the two is much more often seen in raids at least, and it aint the brown one

thin marten
#

what, you don't think doing 3% more damage than the next best tank is worth not having sac, spellwarding, bop, freedom, cleanse, 2 interrupts, 1 mass interrupt, lay on hands, group healing and an aoe taunt that makes you completely immune with the same cd as warrior aoe taunt?

tawdry dirge
prisma crane
void oak
#

yep my only real problem are gonna be people in lfg that are gonna see war tank... dont take them they are bad now

#

take the flying squirrel or the holy cow

tawdry dirge
#

I am used to that

#

We have been often bottom tank

#

On the other hand there isnt many tanks right now so u might get picked still

void oak
#

there are gonna be even less if they keep doing this kind of thing

#

lets go demon hunter season

#

lets all go play demon hunter

prisma crane
#

im a one trick

#

which is why i get particularly salty

tawdry dirge
#

Its funny it really feel like its dh or pala season all time with waving in sometimes bear

prisma crane
#

well, in the last 8 seasons, all but warr and monk have had 2 seasons in top spot

tawdry dirge
#

I cant rember last time warri was top dog

#

Bfa wasnt it

prisma crane
#

yes

#

S2 iirc

#

though end of S4 was real fun with all the vers corruption and stuff

tawdry dirge
prisma crane
#

meanwhile S1 of BFA may have been the worst warrior has ever felt

vast epoch
#

What i woke up to

prisma crane
#

because again, no one at blizz plays pwarr and clearly IP on the GCD was a good idea

vast epoch
#

Fun detected again on warrior or what

tawdry dirge
#

Aye

#

XD

prisma crane
#

(its not that bad) but yea, fun detected for sure

#

im just salty cuz we werent even on top despite it anyways

#

i think if we were like this in S1 we may have been up top, but too much magic and casters this season

gentle gate
#

We gonna be worse than bear after nerfs? Really hope so as I bet my guilds MT that I'd get to 3k before him as first time tanking in m+ 🤡

rancid tiger
#

Dmg is still great as col?

vital vale
rancid tiger
#

And thane got buff?

stone mural
#

What is estimated nerf % for tuning? 3 percent?

prisma crane
#

if i have to hear one more person claim that our shout is the same as their silence...

vital vale
#

do we have anything that makes other tanks jealous of us i wonder. like we are jealous of things like grip, AMS, bubble, silence, etc

jagged pier
#

Yer its was our damage

stone mural
#

Nah

vital vale
#

leap maybe

jagged pier
#

Even tho bdk did the same if not more

#

And didnt get touched at all

vital vale
#

leap is the only thing i think other tanks wish they had that we have

#

tho vdh has it

prisma crane
#

it feels increasingly less relevant tbh

vital vale
#

spell reflect too

#

thats another good thing about war

jagged pier
#

How?

prisma crane
#

another one that's gone now you mean?

jagged pier
#

They stop it being useful on anything

#

But let ams work on everything

vital vale
#

hmm true

#

used to be better but usually niche

#

its great rn against the mechs at the first part of ML

#

but thats about it

prisma crane
#

i miss legion SR

vital vale
#

mass spell reflect

prisma crane
#

when it was actually FUN

mild river
#

In general how much is the nerf? We have numbers?

vital vale
#

siginificant

#

its just their outlook thats dissapointing

jagged pier
#

Not that big i would say but lets see what sims say when its added in

sharp gale
#

yes I take the speed gem

prisma crane
#

with immunity to speed effects too

mild river
vital vale
#

idk about that

sharp gale
#

You still have tank queue

mild river
#

But idc. I'll continue the zug zug path

vital vale
#

most ppl dont read other classes' notes

#

plus yeah you want a tank so you can go go already

jagged pier
sharp gale
#

^

#

Only 1 tank will be in the meta hivemind so every others will suffer slightly anyway

prisma crane
vital vale
#

btw i still feel like insitigate is useless idk why people hyped it up because of 2 rage instead of 1 rage

#

it still ends up generating less rage than shield charge in details!

#

in the overall

#

but thats just my experience

jagged pier
#

Because it generates more rage than bloodsurge upto and including 5 targets

#

So u now just take it over that

#

And as they nerfed rage gen we do actually need rage gen now

vital vale
#

what about bolster, it essentially generates 60 rages on a 2 min cd

#

by giving u 15 sec of free shield block

jagged pier
#

Why would u need bolster?

#

There no point in more shield block

#

U have enough already

vital vale
#

instigate doesnt do anything in a clutch

tawdry dirge
#

imo thats pretty silly nerf too

#

cause my SS dmg is way lower then Revenge and Demo

prisma crane
#

dont want us doing ST either

jagged pier
#

So your saying its worth dropping rage gen overall to save 1 and half uses of revenge every 2 mins?

#

That makes no sense

#

You will loose uses of revenge or ip over a key

golden ravine
#

any WAs for the set? : )

vital vale
#

but it gives you another oh-shit button

#

and instigate doesnt give you that much overall rage gen

#

it amounts to about 5% overall

sharp gale
vital vale
#

its like an extra War Machine

#

im not saying bolster is better im just saying i think its overlooked too quickly

jagged pier
#

So warmachine in a key i did which was 28 minutes long gave 1500 rage, lets say its the same that means i would have to cast ls 25 times

vital vale
#

i wanna try it too with unnerving focus (50% rage gen during last stand) to turn last stand into a 2 min revenge spamming frenzy dps cooldown

jagged pier
#

To equate to the same rage gen or rage save

vital vale
jagged pier
#

As instiagate

#

The key would have to take 50 mins and i would have to press ls on cd

#

And not save it for the oh shit moments for its to be the same

#

This makes no sense

vital vale
sharp gale
#

Even without how much rage you gain, you need more rage every time not every 2 min

vital vale
jagged pier
#

You are a soly pre mitigation tank

#

U plan ahead

#

Not react

vital vale
#

prot warriors die too

sharp gale
#

Tanky boy doesn’t think after the facts

jagged pier
#

And LS isnt going to save you

#

Take bsv instead

#

If your worried

vital vale
#

i do take bsv, and its still bugged tho

#

it just procced on p1 king mechagon when i was 80% hp

jagged pier
#

Its not

vital vale
#

with mitigation up

jagged pier
#

Doubt

#

Need a log

#

But they fixed it that hit took u under 30 100%

#

Well would have

sharp gale
#

I doubt it is bugged

vital vale
#

🤷‍♂️

vital vale
#

its meant to prevent dmg above 30%?

#

i thought its meant to proc when you are brought below 30%

#

like the tooltip says

sharp gale
#

You take 1 hit taking you below 30% it procs and is applied to said damage and you have the buff for 8 sec

jagged pier
#

No it procs on a hit that will take u under 30

#

No after

#

Thats why its not a chwat death

#

U can still die cause it save you from 30%

sharp gale
#

Yep you can still die with it

jagged pier
#

U can the 80% dr and healing increase makes that very hard

#

But still

sharp gale
#

(Like taking backshots = might just die with bsv)

jagged pier
#

What you gunna do when its down, for 3 mins is always my question because youve dropped a talent somewhere and made yourself slightly weaker outside of the window where bsv can be proced

vital vale
#

2 rage per auto attack doesnt make you that much weaker

#

whatevs i dont like instigate, sue me :P

jagged pier
#

Thats not the trade off we are talking about that trade off was insitage vs bolster

sharp gale
#

How many autos we do in a key, I don’t look my rage in logs yet, I don’t have issues for now

jagged pier
#

Bsv trade off is br or rav

jagged pier
#

Around 1000

sharp gale
#

Juicy rage

fleet swift
#

looking at the nerfs or whatever, are we looking at retalenting for more rage generation?

jagged pier
jagged pier
#

And droping somthing else for UF makes even less sense just to make it more viable

fleet swift
#

cool, ok, im just looking at starting out as prot and was reading teh caht here

#

not paying enough attention, thx for reply

vital vale
jagged pier
#

Argue all you want u didnt even know how bsv worked so shruge

sharp gale
vital vale
#

im just saying i dont like instigate

#

cant i say that

jagged pier
#

U can and as i said dont like it, dont run it, i dont pay your sub

vital vale
#

why not pay it :(

sharp gale
#

I don’t like bolster

vital vale
sick grotto
#

is defenders aegis really the play on prot in dungeons now?

jagged pier
#

Yes

#

Iw with no rage gen is garbage

#

And less SWs overall

#

Taking the rage off it killed the talent

sharp gale
#

Bc bolster makes me feel bad spending 1 talent point in the worst cd ever to make it not even, so I feel pressured to spend the 1 min last stand talent node

sick grotto
#

ahh rip

sharp gale
#

In my mind bolster is a 2 talent point cost

jagged pier
sharp gale
#

To not even make it that good

jagged pier
#

Maybe if we ever get a talent rework we grt a good tree that isnt so starved of choice

sharp gale
#

I hope a tree with différents builds and not just (I have ravager or br)

jagged pier
sharp gale
jagged gust
#

give prot overpower

jagged pier
#

Bring back HS

jagged gust
#

Well know I know what a hash tag does

sharp gale
#

Give prot war meatcleave ww on shield slam and execute

jagged pier
#

Yer i aruhed for that

#

Tbh i woild be happy for fury execute

#

Makes more sense for us anyway

brittle owl
#

arms tank

sharp gale
#

I would like to have a reason to have sudden death in AoE (execute cleaving)

jagged pier
wicked plank
#

2h weapon with shield.

valid spade
#

3h weapon

vital vale
sharp gale
#

I did 2 cinderbrew with sudden death because I forgot to switch to m+ build Jakey

valid spade
#

you need a squire to help

jagged pier
#

But yer i doubt thata happening

sharp gale
#

I can dream

#

In one of them they remove backshots from the game

jagged pier
#

Tbf every odea iver had makes the skill ceiling higher which bliz dont want

#

So there no point in giving feedback kekW

round cliff
#

let me main hand another shield and become The Wall

jagged pier
#

Or adds more buttons in the rotation that they also dont want

round cliff
#

nobody else sees my vision

valid spade
#

MORE BUTTONS? are you mad!

jagged pier
#

Play ac vallhala u can do that

sharp gale
#

Or Elden ring

round cliff
#

ds3 has a dedicated dual wield shield

#

that is a set of double doors

#

no other game compares

#

u close the doors on mfs

sharp gale
#

More buttons in the main rotation would be too much but the 30-45 sec ones they can throw one or two more

round cliff
jagged pier
#

Let alone if they didnt give us fury ww and kept it arms then we need to manage rage to use it

round cliff
#

u should want it

jagged pier
#

Would be really fun

#

But not gunna happen

round cliff
#

would make revenge feel dumb again

chilly brook
mild river
#

I just tried a 13 Rook with 3k IO people. We didn't even arrived at first boss bc of lack of interrupts. And I was thinking: are players getting lazy with interrupts because they usually play with pally tanks?

sharp gale
valid spade
#

yes REina

jagged pier
#

Another hero tree

#

More to tune?

#

U mad?

sharp gale
#

It is less to tune

jagged pier
#

They just let bdk god by

sharp gale
#

Than adding larger trees

prisma echo
# round cliff no they just boosted

I was laughting about that i was yesterday doing some 7s had people 2.5k and they didnt know what to do on cleft bosses like zero knowledge. Bro you have 10 done in time how its possible

jagged pier

jagged pier
#

Member bdk didnt get nerfed but druid did

#

Somehow

sick grotto
#

yeah its nuts bdk was doing good

#

not sure why warrior nerf only

jagged pier
#

But nah we are a prblem

mild river
#

Vdh got nerfed, no? Less parry chance

golden ravine
#

blood DK isnt THAT good, it's good in AOE the same as UH

sick grotto
#

it is that good tho

#

its overall dmg

#

its competing with dps in aoe pulls

chilly brook
#

it does the second highest dps in single target for tanks

golden ravine
#

yes, in AOE pulls

chilly brook
#

no not just in aoe

jagged pier
sharp gale
jagged pier
#

That dungeon run was workshop btw

#

So not even a massive aoe dungeon

chilly brook
#

and was doing dk

sick grotto
#

to be honest their the dps is meh

chilly brook
#

but man I feel like paper at 640

sick grotto
#

and bdk also has grip which is still godly for dungeons

#

same with vdh

sharp gale
#

It is sustained AoE if I would put a word on dk damage (random proc do huge so 45-1 min pac it is no longer random = sustain damage)

mild river
#

I feel like vdh grip is kind meh and dangerous bc u don't want to synchronize the melee auto attack

sharp gale
#

Any stops do that

sick grotto
#

just the reality on some pulls you will need stops

chilly brook
#

ain't no way "syncing melees" matters

sick grotto
#

and you need to use your cds to adjust if the melees are trucking you

sharp gale
#

Maybe dh gets one shoted by sync melees who knows keks

chilly brook
#

It's almost like they could play a hero talent that doesn't require them to "ramp"

#

And almost like too many of them leap past mobs and get back hit keks

sick grotto
#

dude went in raw

vital vale
#

lmao

mild river
#

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

#

I loled

chilly brook
#

I mean I could post the same of me getting one shot by a peacekeeper because I didn't spell reflect 😛

sick grotto

the chat bubbles are great

sharp gale

#

how would you guys go about doing the pull here at 5:40 as a warrior in pug? without being able to grip sharpshooters

chilly brook

chilly brook
#

no you don't

vital vale
#

no?

jagged pier
#

If everyone los's u dont

chilly brook
#

no

vital vale
#

alright

chilly brook
#

sharpshooters just randomly hit everyone

jagged pier
#

Causd the move until they can see someone

vital vale
chilly brook
#

the shoot is randomly targeted

jagged pier
#

They leap in anyways easy pick up

sharp gale
#

in pug i just say stay stack and we wait the sharpshooters to jump to us sadge

chilly brook
#

quite literally just tell everyone to run into the corner

chilly brook
#

no reason for them to not anyways

#

I love this

jagged pier
#

U arent a pala or vdh

#

Kinda obvious reason

chilly brook
#

😦

jagged pier
#

Doesnt matter

#

U arent meta

#

And just got nerfed

#

On top

#

Or well will

sharp gale
#

and only 42% blue color

chilly brook
#

is ok they're gonna brick the key anyways

hollow sphinx
#

is there a guide on what to use our sparks?

jagged pier
#

I always like the SLs days where i would get rejected from a key, join another group finish the key and still see that same group waitijg in groupfinder

chilly brook
#

I literally watch these fuckers just sit on my app for minutes at a time until a dh shows up

#

it's insane

#

the only other 13 to pick from is one I already have timed 😦

sharp gale
#

do your own key as tank

chilly brook
#

I just want the last 39io so I can start boosting 10s for fat gold

sharp gale
#

3k is the minimum ?

chilly brook
#

(obv push further but rn I need to take advantage of early season gold)

#

for 10s rn yeah

tawdry dirge

aha boost discords still exist nice xD

fleet swift

how much cash do you get for a 10?

#

gold, w/e

chilly brook

don't know

#

not eligible so no tags

vital vale

people boost 0-3 keys?

chilly brook
#

literally waited 4m for a paladin

raw parcel
#

Prices aren't listed there, xD I'm curious what people charge.

chilly brook
#

could always just ask one of the advertisers who spam trade chat lmao

tawdry dirge
#

did see 700k somewhere for a 10

jagged pier
#

Just do what i do loot a hc boe and sell it for 2.5mil before they removed them all from the AH kekW

chilly brook
#

Can I have your rng sir

jagged pier
chilly brook
tawdry dirge
#

no 1 timed 10 it was

#

xD

jagged pier
#

No shot

chilly brook
#

the couple 10s I've seen that got dropped down to my level were like 180k cuts per booster

inner flume
#

I want to start boosting aswell, what discord should i join for that?

jagged pier
#

They were like 50k back in sls for a max vault reward

chilly brook
sharp gale
jagged pier
#

Bro 10s arw a joke

#

What is this shit i need to join nposting again damn

sick grotto
#

yeah 10s are nothing this season

#

not sure if they just overnerfed stuff

sharp gale
#

Gear

sick grotto
#

mmm think everything is just doing too much dmg

tawdry dirge
#

ye u geared way faster and there is a lot of good stuff

sick grotto
#

like +3 a 10 is fine with a decent group

chilly brook
#

assuming these were 10s that's 132k per dungeon

jagged pier
#

No u guys are forgeting 10s are the new 8s

#

12s are the new 10s

tawdry dirge
#

that as well

sharp gale
#

Not really faster, 10s were a joke too third week in the first season or im crazy

jagged pier
#

I mean yes

sick grotto
#

dunno if you saw some of my pugs in season 1 i question if their screens were turned on

sharp gale
#

But definitely easier now to do 10s first week

#

After the 10% nerf of the first weekend

chilly brook
#

this shit is actually doomed

#

can't get into a singular key

sick grotto
#

brown class life

#

just play fire mage sure you will get in quick

chilly brook
#

I suppose I could just send my 14 workshop

#

mostly easy key tbh

sick grotto
#

yeah pretty much

chilly brook
#

nothing in there actually scares me much outside of the first pull

simple flax
#

How bad are our nerfs from class tuning?

chilly brook

☑️ reroll

that's how bad
