what stats to craft on shield? crit haste?

valid spade
#

wwwwwye

#

or sim

strong forum
#

as colossus you can drop indom

#

it does extremely little healing

#

but battering ram incrases SS resets and thus rage gen by a TON

#

since 4pc also increases battering ram uptime by 100%

valid spade
#

instigate and bloodsurge is it much the same or does one win out

strong forum
#

instigate wins out on pulls 5 and below

#

bloodsurge wins out on pulls above that

#

so for large pull dungeons like priory and motherlode bloodsurge is extremely potent

valid spade
#

great

strong forum
#

instigate is the play in workshop and theater of pain

bitter sparrow
#

Wow they added lines to ToP tornados

#

the knock off frontals?

lusty grotto
#

now you get to see when it bugs out

#

and it spins around blasting the entire group

#

fun times

valid spade
#

are we making choices at the end between BR and BSV, or should I drop ravager for it im messing about each dungeon but im not sure if ravager is that huge an issue overall due to CD

narrow jay
#

Could we drop indomitable and run both instigate and bloodsurge?

restive oak
#

i'd drop ravager, but others say diffy

#

yeah you can

Doesnt everyone play show of force?

dunno the specs i've seen didn't

we literally are playing show of force

im a weirdo and switch it for disrupting alot, lol

strong forum

#

a lot of ppl i looked at were running disrupt yeah

lusty grotto
#

i did my job

lucid pecan
#

seen most warriors in high keys going for disrupt

neat vector
#

aoe interrupt kinda good

restive oak
#

its useful alot

narrow jay
#

Dps and healer problem

strong forum
#

dunno there arent many pulls where you need aoe kick

restive oak
#

and i was like, i already do enough dam fr, i don't wanna make dps feel that bad

strong forum
#

atleast from my experience

neat vector
#

its a single target kick in pugs too

#

yknow when mage forget counterspell exists

lusty grotto
#

i swap SoF for disrupting

#

its fine

#

just no reason to play both instigate and bloodsurge

#

pick 1

#

is dungeon = ToP or Workshop, pick instigate

narrow jay
#

But if you played both wouldn't the rage gen be crazy good? More revenge spam 😅

lusty grotto
#

is dungeon = big pulls? pick bloodsurge

#

ez

#

no

#

youre losing damage

neat vector
#

how do we feel about spell block

cerulean tusk
lusty grotto
restive oak
#

spell block is nice

narrow jay
#

Ive just been running instigate for every dungeon i like the extra dps and single target rage gen

lusty grotto
#

shitload of stuff is spell blockable this season, no reason to avoid it

#

in fact the vast majority of tank busters are, with the notable exception of thunder punch

restive oak
#

is very strong cd when you getting pew pewd by wizards

neat vector
#

makes sense

narrow jay
#

But I've also been running indomitable all season i didn't know it had been nerfed

@lusty grotto does your revenge tooltip reflect the colossal might tooltip?

lusty grotto
#

i already submitted a bug report

urban portal
#

yeah thats the colossal might tooltip

lusty grotto
#

but yes

urban portal
#

but does the revenge tooltip matchup with it

lusty grotto
#

oh good question

urban portal
#

and you can obviously test on dummy too

#

the damage variance is only 5%

lusty grotto
#

yeah i can check

topaz vale

aight lets do math

#

urban portal

thats 10.3

dusky canopy
#

Math again

lusty grotto
#

256,289 2 stack (just including this for reference)

urban portal
#

why is first stack giving 10 and 2nd stack giving 4

#

so 2 stacks give 14

#

so 1 stack give 7

nocturne spindle
#

yea wtf

urban portal
#

what is this

nocturne spindle
#

i was like

urban portal
#

is this actual damage dealt

nocturne spindle
#

why is the one stack math not mathing

urban portal

let me go to an ST dummy cause One Against Many might be factoring in

thats 7% on tooltip

so we good?

#

now check actual damage

actual damage should be 70% of tooltip due to armor

but we dont really care about that

lusty grotto
#

yeah checking

#

fucking crits

#

1 stack is lower in the list

frail bear

Isn’t thane better for m+?

this is important

so that we can continue discussion here

the damage nerfs went in this patch right

lusty grotto
#

For anyone that asks: the 5% on the Colossal Might tooltip is wrong, its 7% as stated in the dev notes, so tooltip error

#

just a tooltip error, very common with blizz

Anyone help me verify my choice from the vault?

I think someone further up said that it's just a tooltip display issue, and it's still 7% per stack like it says in the tree itself. I'm not wiz enough to know for sure myself though.

sacred flare
#

Thinking of taking the cloak as i already have it at a lower ilvl and it sims higher for dps

tender schooner
#

or least triple confirm with logs, I'm looking slowly as I do work too

frail ibex
lusty grotto
#

we just confirmed with combat data

#

no need to confirm with logs

#

its literally the same thing

urban bane
#

Ah thanks for checking to make sure. just a tooltip error

lusty grotto
#

and logs might be skewed because of the One Against Many nerfs

#

so its not a direct calculation

SS = 1, IP = F, Shield Block = Shift+F, Revenge = R, Taunt = T

of course IP is a macro that also casts SS

which you shouldnt use to cast SS

Weird bug on my alt. He has 2P Prot tier. Gloves from LFR and Heroic shoulders. The 2P isn't proccing. If I remove and replace the gloves sometimes it will proc once but it doesn't seem to proc the correct shield wall spell since Avatar does not chain proc from the Immovable Object talent.

Hey guys! quikc question, which 2 pieces should be my first 2 crafts?

late rock
#

Depends what you have in your other slots tbh

knotty mantle
# topaz latch god, it has. but also i highly value ST damage. especially tyrannical bosses.

Definitely one of my favorite things about pwarr compared to other tanks.. the ability to pivot your rage into aggressive spending (revenge/execute) if you're able to. Especially on bosses where the pressure on me is low but the pressure on my team is high. It feels good to slam 3+ mill crits into the boss repeatedly.

Also last week was amazing since you can just mash execute into the spawned add and help the dps burst it down.

polar shale
#

just got my warrior to 80 yesterday and got some loot but a lot of greens still

pretty much anything is an upgrade tbh

crit, vm i mean once you hit haste all stats are pretty good

Sorry if this has been asked before but I tried searching and didn't see it mentioned. Did the damage buffs to trinkets have any effect on the rankings on our wowhead guide or are they still roughly the same since they all pretty much got damage buffs?

OK GUYS

help me :d

what the actual fuck xD

i got custom apl why its showing 40% more

sounds accurate

also do 5 targets, not 4

since you want as close to target caps as possible

sharp kayak

275k at 655 is still a wild result though

lusty grotto

not really

#

thats why we recommend tome

36% IN ST?

its fucking insane

lusty grotto
#

now you know why its S-rank in the guide

coarse ferry
#

is that sim just doing the damage for the trinket only?

valid spade
#

No that's the nerf

#

We now only do 200k dps

lusty grotto
#

its a full sim with proper usage for tome

#

as seen in the pins

#

otherwise the sim doesnt really prioritize putting tome in sword mode

jagged gust
#

sure doesn't look like it

keen relic
#

it's probably cause there's only like 6 lines in the custom APL you put in

I ran the same patchwork 4 boss 1 min sim without tome and the custom apl... 3.528m dps

lusty grotto
#

5 target

did something happen at the end of s1?

Col took a hit, but it's still better than thrane

at the end of s1?

you mean at the start of s2

colossus was always ahead, its just comfier now

valid spade
#

Oh you've missed a lot. Colossus was pumping it still is pumping but 12 percent less on aoe

And 5 on st

Thrane is maybe slightly easier to play and tankier on virtue of rage and dumping said rage

Is col far enough ahead that I need to switch for casual heroic raiding? Not a huge key pusher.

devout star
#

but when i started s1 i was a prot warr playing thane

there was no huge buff

it was just a meta shift

df s1 had a huge buff rework

not this exp

why is house of cards simming so freaking high compared to other s trinkets? is it just the AP we get from mastery during our CD windows?

same as eye of kezan

anyway back to the sim

Walll youre simming incorrectly

prisma echo

Guys last dumb question. I should press trinket on shield mode to activate and boost crit mode right?

#

or othervise

lusty grotto

you just press it when you auto swap from hits

so you keep it in sword mode

prisma echo

got it

lusty grotto

but yeah did you figure out what you were doing wrong

prisma echo

i didnt figure it out

valid spade

You're only selecting bits of gear on the SIM it looked like

Or was that what you were expecting

i was checking which trinket is better and what will be change if i swap to book

what do you think will change, shield gives no damage

its strictly defensive lol

Dumb question, are we a likely contender to be "the tank" of this season? I see a lot of DHs in high keys so I assume that spot goes to them but I've felt P War quite solid in the offensive and utility areas (not so sure about defense vs specific bosses). Just curious about it, it's not like I'm really gonna push to key levels where that actually matters, just got the 3k mount and I'm kinda done with the season.
