That's good to know as well tbh

Tbf I’m like woahyer, her voice line is my warning

I mean I still kinda track it to see what I have and plan but the voice line is my way of knowing I need to press the button

I always found it amusing that people will turn off game audio

#

ive had music off since tbc

chilly brook
#

And then install a bunch of extra wacky sounds to track mechanics

solid sun
#

It may be the “best” option, but is it the only option?

lusty grotto
#

but def not sound effects

chilly brook

#

I don’t play with music

#

i finally got a good answer like 8 petitions in btw

#

so i clicked the fucking thing thinking it was a socket

#

and that removed the buy back shit

#

or sell back

#

and the guy was like "yeah well the validity for the item expired"

#

so i this last reply i made was something along the lines of "no shit, do you think i would open a petition/ticket if i could sell back?"

#

but nicer of course, cause i dont know if its AI or real people

#

this one was particularly funny considering i wasnt asking for a vault choice to be reversed

violet ginkgo
#

btw Nim how is this s2 compared to s1? some ppl said tank start having aggro problem?

lusty grotto
#

s2 is miles better

#

the only agro problems are the ones that are expected: when people outgear you

#

this season is by far one of the best seasons in a big while

chilly brook
#

there are only two classes that I've ever had actually rip something off of me this season (arcane mage and ele sham)

#

but those are easily fixed

#

I see... so what is the tank issue for this season? I believe there are still some since this is Blizzard after all.

99% of their responses are AI anyway. It's a joke.

Friend of mine got a response where they told him to do dreamsurges for gear. This was like 2 weeks ago.

I love KC BBQ more

It’s basically emancipation proclamation day except kinda different because it’s when it was finally enforced in areas where it wasn’t or something like that

Without getting into weeds

#

I feel like if I was gay I wouldn’t want it to celebrated. wouldn’t that make it feel less normal? When the goal is to just be accepted as “normal”

lusty grotto

i think that was Roid's whole point

chilly brook
lusty grotto

i kind of agree with it but

chilly brook

Like we don’t celebrate being straight because it’s “normal” so wouldn’t celebrating being gay make it seem less “normal”

turns out, being a shit expansion doesnt mean absolutely 100% everything about it was shit, it just means most of it was

whats the old saying

It just mostly matters how you interacted with it. I did aotc for raid so all three raids were fantastic. I enjoyed all the dungeons. And I played Kyrian prot paladin the entire expansion for all content

So I avoided all pain points

CN was fantastic

the other two...

not nearly as close

Being absolutely not apologetic is pretty Garroshy. I enjoyed that personally

he nuked people before that

No, he clearly did what he did for the horde.

Legion did a good job establishing that they can fuck ya up, tho - after they did, they kinda did nothing again.

to be perfectly clear, i like spaceships, just not as part of demons and outside Warhammer 40k

warm plinth
#

Yeah that was like the 60s right 😏

jagged gust
#

yeah I kinda quit playing legion when they decided to go full warhammer 40k

solid sun
#

But the planet was sick as hell and felt demonic

lusty grotto
#

you mean Argus?

#

sure

solid sun
#

Yeah

warm plinth
#

Argus didn't feel demonic to me at all

#

It was voidy

nocturne spindle
#

Spaceships have been thing since TBC? I think it was a retcon o

lusty grotto
#

well yeah kind of, it was a little too green

#

draenei had spaceships so yes

solid sun
#

It was both void and demon yeah

cerulean tusk
#

yep

nocturne spindle
#

Argus was not really supposed to be demonic though right? Just titan being used by demons

cerulean tusk
#

It was death, fel, light and nature

nocturne spindle
#

"kind of" corrupted

cerulean tusk
#

and the "other"

lusty grotto
#

we mean the planet

cerulean tusk
#

Everyone was fighting for Argus

nocturne spindle
#

Oh

lusty grotto
#

not the titan

warm plinth
#

Yeah draenei city was literally made out of the husk of their ship

nocturne spindle
#

Unno then

cerulean tusk
#

Death won, tho

nocturne spindle
#

It was pretty green

cerulean tusk
#

so gg

#

Yep, but if you remember, there was the uncorrupted zone, where the light had tried to do their thing. The void was about, trying to do their thing, and death was there and won.

#

I dont get lore anymore tho, so meh.

warm plinth
#

We have lore?

cerulean tusk
#

Man'ari are now good guys, so yay.

elfin ginkgo
#

how do you guys pull the packs after the 1st boss in priory?

warm plinth
#

All at once or no balls

#

Jkjk

solid sun
#

lmao

elfin ginkgo
#

for sure, but how do i actually get them on top of eachotehr

cerulean tusk
#

1st pull with <-- left side, and then I do right side with left inc side. Then right side.

Or I just do entrance starter guys, then 2 and 2

lusty grotto
#

what do you mean

nocturne spindle
#

do you mean actually pulling the 2 side packs with the front pack and the huge group of nothing guys?

warm plinth
#

Oh idk. I've only done a 4 priory and it was like 2 1/2 months ago. So naturally my friend will throw me into a 10 and I'll be stumbling around like a fool

nocturne spindle
#

starter 2 then 2

west perch
#

hey all, noob question probably 🙂 i'm quite far off from having all 12s, is it 'worth' taking 2 hero track items from dinars? or is that a very big nah? Just started learning prot warr

nocturne spindle
#

doing more is MDI shit

lusty grotto
cerulean tusk
lusty grotto
#

since we only get 3 buys, you shouldn't just spend them outright

warm plinth
#

The no catch-up on dinars is big dumb

west perch
#

Alright, i'll wait a bit then, got champion track reverb radio and a lfr bombsuit, that should last me a bit i guess

warm plinth
#

Don't get my 3rd chip til next week because I am behind a week

cerulean tusk
#

Should last you till you get full HC track from just farming crests, either way. Yep yep

lusty grotto
#

sure just spam floodgate and priory for tome and pacemaker

You can use aoe silence to help move casters out of the consecrations

west perch
lusty grotto
#

yes

warm plinth
#

Shield is your most important piece of gear

lusty grotto
#

the only way you dont craft a shield is if you have a myth track shield

west perch
#

alright, crafting a shield it is then

warm plinth
#

Nim I got to replace the siren ring this week deswind

#

Got a ring from first myth vault

Gonna be 37 next month sadgers

i got upset and walked away from it

warm plinth
#

Well, bright side, it'll be easier next week

solid sun
#

Yeah but now SW can suck my ass

#

What the hell is this instance!

warm plinth
#

What are your struggles in SW?

solid sun
#

Yes

warm plinth
#

Oh

solid sun
#

Jakey gave me pointers for mage guy

#

But fighting Shaw also sucks

warm plinth
#

What pointers did he give

solid sun
#

And fighting Alleria with Shaw eyeballs sucks

warm plinth
#

Shaw???

#

A lot of people really hate those eyes XD

nocturne spindle
#

the eyes are such a weird mechanic

#

i kept thinking i had to LOS them since that worked

#

stupid ass mechanic

solid sun
#

And I wanna use the dam amp circles but it’s a nightmare while dodging looking at eyeballs

warm plinth
#

Los doesnt even work though

lusty grotto
#

it doesnt, it didnt in bfa either

#

you just LoS to move them

nocturne spindle
#

it mightve been just turning around to get to a wall was working then

warm plinth
#

Oh. I wouldn't even bother. Ive ignored promised power since it first existed in Bfa

#

Just not worth it especially on alleria

solid sun
#

But then Alleria lives for like an hour

warm plinth
#

Yeah but she's not a race

#

Just take your time

lusty grotto
#

its a slow fight

#

just burst when you have windows

#

treat it like a soulsborne boss fight

warm plinth
#

When you're level 1

solid sun
#

But so far the biggest pain points outside of Alleria have been

#

Ranked from worst to easiest

#

-Mage dude
-Shaw
-Everything inside the mage quarter
-Tentacle guy in the trade district that channels into you for sanity damage
-somehow navigating as horribly as possible through terrain and just being the worst most unevolved human ever

round cliff
#

shaw is easy wym

#

easiest boss other than dwarf

#

and mage

lusty grotto
#

the only tedious boss there is alleria

#

but it happens to everyone that's melee

round cliff
#

idk how im gonna do alleria with daredevil mask im gonna get impatient and take one eyeball tick for half my sanity

Should i craft beledar's bulwark of should i craft the 'normal' shield?

warm plinth
chilly brook
#

If you’re going to embellish it you’d do one of the linings

#

Dawn or dusk thread

west perch
#

Alright Thanks 😄

lusty grotto
#

both wowhead and icyveins work

#

they are both written by our orange and blue names

warm plinth
#

So far, I don't think we've ever had an embellish shield worth making

lusty grotto
#

right

west perch
#

Will take a look

warm plinth
#

Also why tf can we reflect trade guy channel but not Umbric

#

Makes no sense smh

lusty grotto
#

wdym

#

you reflect the poly

warm plinth
#

I'm referring to the missiles

lusty grotto
#

yeah but

#

its a channel

#

reflect only takes the 1st tick

warm plinth
#

So is the trade guy one

#

You still reflect the whoem thing

#

Whole

lusty grotto
#

uhhh i dont know about that

round cliff
#

ive never had trade guy get a cast off tbh

warm plinth
#

I do

round cliff
#

but

#

i thought it still ticked for sanity dam

warm plinth
#

As long as you have reflect up before the first tick on inquisitor, you avoid the whole thing. But not on umbric

lusty grotto
#

well im doing 8 masks today so will let you know, i just kick it so shrug

warm plinth
#

He always casts two before convert and I'm not geared enough to kill him before 2nd cast so I reflect it

lusty grotto
#

just bolster him and get a fat ass reflect

#

if thats the case

solid sun
#

Are you talking about the last boss of trade district or the mini boss

lusty grotto
#

mini

warm plinth
#

Miniboss.

solid sun
#

I’ll have to suffer through it again. I don’t remember his cast being interruptible

#

But maybe I interrupted the first and I’m remembering the second

#

Because it cooked my ass

warm plinth
#

Convert isn't but the agonizing torment is

#

Which is the one that does sanity damage

#

Convert does nothing if you're alone though

#

Well, I guess technically it still reduces your healing to 0 but who cares

chilly brook
#

Completely not related and kinda random but is anyone an ESO Andy?

warm plinth
#

Yeah with not being able to have a capped shield from crafting, im glad the embellishment isnt good

chilly brook
#

Like it was less than half a percent of DR iirc from block

warm plinth
#

Yeah. Would depend how much better the shield embellish was vs others too anyway

Centimeters are all I need

Ngl with the changes to sanity numbers from bosses, umbric is probably a giant bitch of a fight for some specs

knotty mantle
#

Are there any hero track trinks that are generally better than house of cards for M+?

chilly brook
chilly brook
#

Outside of defensive ones in cases where you need an extra defensive

frosty mango
lusty grotto
#

HoC is pretty big just for big pulling

knotty mantle
#

I see. When we play HOC, is it a bad idea to just macro it to avatar? Do we want to specifically hold it for our bigger pulls?

lusty grotto
#

only myth track pace/tome beat it

#

dont macro it to avatar

#

there are other 1.5 min cds you can macro it to

warm plinth
#

I have it bound to TR since it lines up

lusty grotto
#

that do not rely on proper rage management to be 45s like avatar

#

ravager

warm plinth
#

Yeah, TR, demo, or ravager

lusty grotto
#

is probably one of the best ones

#

yeah demo for sure

#

i dont macro trinkets to abilities but demo seems like it would be the one

#

and hope to christ youre not playing thunderlord for some god forsaken reason as colossus

Oh then in that case listen to Nim

chilly brook
#

But I do!

lusty grotto
#

i pull big in it, some pug friendly routes at best have double pulls

frosty mango
#

Quad pull or bust

lusty grotto
#

which is what, 5? 6 mobs?

frosty mango
#

Uh

#

14?

lusty grotto

i meant what i said

as in double pulls

Someone start some controversy, it’s too boring in here today

Assuming you aren’t using it as a blanket “I should run this obviously” thing

i just ask for the 7th time of the day in class discords instead

jagged gust
elfin ginkgo
#

my question was shit anyway

#

I want to pull 3 packs, it's easily doable but i am trying to figure out the best wayt o get the together

lusty grotto
#

run to the casters

#

otherwise you need people to kick

#

thats it

elfin ginkgo
#

yeah

lusty grotto
#

there's no science to it

#

can also pull and LoS

#

plenty of options

#

disrupting is also another

lofty warren
#

If someone disarms you then do you lose the stats that your weapon gives too?

lusty grotto
#

im pretty sure you dont

jagged gust
lusty grotto
#

hmm

#

he just dies when i did it on week 1

#

there's no 2nd cast, i just kicked 1st cast and murdered him

jagged gust
#

Maybe I just need to save some CDs for harder mini bosses then

lusty grotto
#

well

#

i just pull the entire area to him

#

so im not using cds before that

#

well, not the entire area, but whatever is on the way at least

jagged gust
#

What about the dude immediately after with the pull in? Do you beeline him or clear the rest of the zone waiting for cds

lusty grotto
#

i clear first

#

especially around where the jails are

#

so its just pull everything thats left kill it, then kill boss and then open jails

warped swift
#

Hey folks pretty new to prot war here, is it worthwhile to drop the points in BSV and ravager to make healing from fueled by violence better when paired with bloodborne and arterial bleed? Doing keys around 10-12 so nothing crazy

lusty grotto
#

absolutely not

#

bloodborne is a nono

#

fueled is a nono

#

you shouldnt be playing those talents at all

warped swift
#

lol alright, just figured with the sheer number of enemies it may be okay. So don't even run fueled by violence?

#

Heard lol

#

No on arterial blood then as well I'm assuming

lusty grotto
#

are you using our builds?

warped swift
#

Sort of my own frankenstein, I'll check it out

lusty grotto
#

you should be running this

#

with swappables

warped swift
#

Yeah looks like I do the same stuff just normally run disrupting shout for that aoe interrupt, guessing that's more dungeon specific

lusty grotto
#

its not

#

disrupting is fine to hard talent

#

but SoF is the swap point for it

#

which is why they are both green there

wispy moth
#

No one playing with the +30 max rage boost in talent class ?

lusty grotto
#

i am

#

wait

#

no

warped swift
#

Gotcha, yeah I normally don't swap anything so my build almost 99.9999% time looks like

lusty grotto
#

the 130 rage one?

#

no

wispy moth
#

Okok

lusty grotto
#

we dont need it

#

this is a more complete one

warped swift
lusty grotto
wispy moth
lusty grotto
#

no

#

TL is a waste

#

you dont TC as colossus

#

not nearly as much

#

to make it relevant

lusty grotto
wispy moth
#

Okok, i was glad to get demo shout more often

lusty grotto
#

need BSV and not in a big pull dungeon? swap ravager for it

need BSV and not in a small pull dungeon? swap Battering for it (this is usually the case)

need disrupting? swap Show of force for it... people are disrupting baseline this season so its fine

swap TR for spear on ToP and/or wherever pulls are small

swap intervene for crackling baseline for mob gathering

#

ok this should be the final one lmao

#

i almost always run disrupting and crackling

#

the only swaps i make are due to BSV and/or Spear if needed

#

most of this channel does the same

#

strictly for M+ btw

slender bison
#

I'm running 16s as Thane with SoF, Disrupt, ThunderLord and Ravager. No BsV. And quick footwork keks

lusty grotto
#

as Colossus:

  • dont play indom
  • dont play TR
  • dont play bloodborne cause bleeds are nerfed (TR is there cause of mob gathering)
wispy moth
#

I took BSV because insecured in 12 XD
But I guess I can took ravager back

warped swift
#

Disrupting, BSV, and Ravager are nice safety nets I don't want to let go of for my mistakes and overzealous DPS who can't let me group mobs up and just let it rip instantly lol

lusty grotto
#

thane plays TL baseline

#

so idk why youre mentioning it

#

its a TC heavy class so it benefits greatly from it

chilly brook
lusty grotto
#

griff

#

look at who im replying to

chilly brook
#

Most people won’t need it

lusty grotto
#

taking BSV is fine

chilly brook
#

But it does have a use

lusty grotto
#

no

#

they dont need to read this

#

they are doing 12s

chilly brook
#

I’m sorry Nim my autism

wispy moth
lusty grotto
#

thats true

lusty grotto
#

but... its fine to talent it

#

you have a swappable point for it

chilly brook
#

If you need it though you need it

wispy moth
#

Nah i swap it, I wont rely on this in those key

#

I'm 668 ilvl, i shouldnt proc it

chilly brook
#

But I would recommend you not play with it in below 15s

lusty grotto
#

yeah

wispy moth
#

I need to improve my own survivability

chilly brook
wispy moth
#

And dont depend on it

chilly brook
#

Even in a 15

#

It just wouldn’t have value

wispy moth
#

In 15 it wouldnt surprise me, not in 12 x)

lusty grotto
#

im just saying its perfectly acceptable to talent it, but yes you shouldn't need it in anything below a 16

wispy moth
#

I proc it because 'im kinda dumb

wispy moth
lusty grotto
#

there's no shame to talent it, i should say

#

also

#

very important

wispy moth
#

Ah sure, that's my own opinion on it^^

lusty grotto
#

Heavy Repercussions below 16k haste rating

#

Into The Fray at over 16k haste rating

#

for SB uptime's sake

warped swift
wispy moth
#

I reach 19k+ haste this morning, so glad. But the change on the SB management is kind weird at first

lusty grotto
#

ratings, not percents

warped swift
#

crit 19,751
haste 20,594
Mastery 3,267
Vers 5,707

lusty grotto
#

haste

#

i didnt need the other stats lol

warped swift
#

Feel like it's pretty decent atm?

lusty grotto
#

ITF is fine with 20k

#

the other stats are whatever sims best

warped swift
#

We don't always want more haste? Figured it was just shove as much haste into your character as possible lo

lusty grotto
#

not this season

#

tier set makes a difference

#

SC resets means youll have more Champion's Bulwark SBs

#

having more haste isnt bad

#

but you should def go other stats at around 20k rating

#

haste rating

jagged gust
#

Didn't the ITF nerf have an interaction with less haste value

lusty grotto
#

remember the biggest reason that haste is important is due to SB cd being hastened

warped swift
#

I'm guessing there's a pretty big DR on certain amount of haste rating/% though

dusky canopy
#

Nim’s mom uses ITF because she’s a badass gamer gal!

lusty grotto
dusky canopy
lusty grotto
#

ignore DRs

#

after 20k haste go for more crit based pieces or whatever sims best for you

#

also percents do not cause diminishing returns

#

only rating does

#

thats why ITF is good at a high haste rating

#

it adds haste that is not diminished

#

same as PI

#

same as lust

My MT baseline for 16s. Getting BsV only for Priory/Floodgate. And HR for -1s Pummel in ToP for clutch caster kicks. Got cartel Mud now so I'm much more confident.
