Threat buffed to 950% of Tank's Damage (was 815%)
yes we're aware
Still not clear how shaman steals agro
Because they are blasting a shitload of damage into one target
If you’re not shield slamming that target they will overtake you
Same is true for arcane, if they focus a target for prio and that target is not your primary target, they’ll rip
Maybe not anymore, that’s a pretty sizable threat bump
One shield slam with no VO is like 600K
But this happens in high keys
Same item level in 10-14s, never had issues
I personally have not had any issues since turbo boost even with people bursting in the 30m range
Occasionally a boomy will snake a few mobs with starfall if I’m grabbing a new pack before we drop combat but that’s not difficult to get them back
I can see demon hunters and brewmasters having issues
Dh specifically
I had issues with Hero weapon with all the sweatlords with 681/684 pumping post turbo boost. Had to craft too
Up the top of your head - what's your DPS at rookery 16-17 1st boss? Like 1.1M-1.2M? A bit better with battle stance + sword tome?
Uh
Like overall or on the boss itself
Boss only
It really honestly depends
On if dps have brain or no brain
If they burn the shield properly and I can use cds on burn phase then around 1.8-2m details I think?
Otherwise like 1.3-1.5
Colossus?
Yeah
If you have blaster dps and you don’t have avatar or pot up it will be much lower
Usually 1.2ish
I just looked and I was at 1.43m details
From a key a few days ago
Thx. I'm 1.1-1.2m Thane. With mud trinket though. No Show of Force for empowering TC. This is 16 key
I’ve played some thane keys
Single target is similar or better
Thane has great rage economy
are you sure about that?
thats 8% less than Colossus Execute
Don’t think thane would be better in raid
Fight times are longer and execute is a smaller portion of your overall contribution - as we scale up demolish goes kinda nuts
thats a 5 min ST sim
Given current tuning I would expect colossus to keep pulling away
lets see the 3min
Sim 3m
dont worry im on it
You gotta do a sim after without raid buffs
3 mins
Though I’m admittedly in execute longer on my thane keys because they tend to be carry keys or brain off keys
certainly far from even like the guy said
and of course colossus shatters thane in aoe, we've known that for a while
the buffs didnt really make a difference
I tested thane in priory 12s and avg overalls were around 2.5m
sounds about right
High was like 2.9 and low was like 2.2
Colossus was just much higher on average and had much better prio damage
That sim surprises me though I wouldn’t expect thane to be that far behind in st - are you simming your char?
yeah
I’ll sim mine when I get home, I wonder if my stat distro makes a diff
I have a lot more crit than you I think
The main thing Thane ST has going for it is a stronger execute phase, but it's not by a large amount, and the faster you blast things, the less execute phase there is
yeah, but its still gonna be less than colossus
Even then, it's not like Colo execute is bad
I assume that sims have a fixed execute phase though
So that wouldn't really change with gear
Yeah I have 22k/18k in thane gear
So it mostly has value for pushing through Execute important phases or something similar
Which this raid did have a few of, but parse wise they won't be of note, and you being Thane or not probably didn't make a difference
yeah this isnt really news
You'd have to ask an actual M raider for that, though, since I don't fully know
So none of these sims surprise me, even after the buff it got at some point
I’m not surprised to see colo ahead as gear scales but 10%?
It theoretically could be tankier if you needed to cycle Shield Wall more often, but that's relatively minor
That’s pretty massive
thats just not gonna happen in any fight luerce
Immovable Object also can enable you to fit damage profiles, more, as well
ok
That's more for dungeon purposes, where defensive CDs over time could be a factor; current dungeons and their design ain't the case, though
Real talk though
anyway this whole thing is due to this claim #protection message which is absolutely not true at all
all of this we've known about
What is the difference between "gradient" roles and "holographic" roles? Because I feel like they're exactly the same except holographic ones can't have the color customized.
kinda feel the same tbh
i've been trying to not think about this
i saw nim's name being all weird
Holograph is animated I think
oh
and i was like "i can't be assed"
I bought both in MPF and have yet to use the gradient ones (because I'm colorblind nad having me pick two colors that aren't horrible with each other is not a good idea)
that would make a difference i guess
The holo ones have like a shimmer animation
i'm pretty sure the mod's roles are animated
the blue goes to orange and orange to blue
Doesn’t work on mobile
Yea that’s holo I think?
No
Holographic can't be customized. You and Nim are holo
That's the only color of holo there is
ok thats not happening in my desktop app
If you see ones that are other colors, it's gradient
smh nim's graphics card can't meet the strict requirements asked of by the discord desktop app

I’m not trusting the colorblind dude to tell me what’s colored
Suspect
Trust my server options :p
Notice it says you "are not required to select a color"?
This is gradient
You pick two colors for it to gradient through
yeah well its a mystery
discord trying to sell the same thing as different things
c:
Yeah seems that way XD
Maybe I should make a gradient role with the same colors as holo and see if there's a visible difference
https://gyazo.com/6239259697208ea927f6e6bd6e2485da I don't think I quite got the right colors; it's hard to pick it up from a gradient lol
yeah its animated
It doesn't look different to me though (besides maybe a slight difference in colors due to my bad selection)
Hi just wanting to make sure I understand this properly. You only hit Revenge if you need to apply Deep Wounds and otherwise you spend Rage only on Ignore Pain?
That is not correct
I'm leveling currently but I'll copy paste whatever list is recommended for M+ at 80
uhhh
things will change when you get to max level
but revenge usage varies between the two hero trees
so its important to know which one you're playing
same core, but playstyle varies
revenge prio, thunderclap prio, etc are different
Is there anywhere I can read about it instead? The priority section on WoWhead doesn't seem too helpful with that or I'm really dumb
the priority section on wowhead should be on point
but icy veins can also provide some explanation
tl;dr though
i think ppl have it twisted on the thane thing: it isn't a ST thing, it is just that the more targets you get the closer thane performs to colossus, eventually exceeding it. but not really by much. and relies dropping some nice quality of life stuff. I wouldn't go so far as to ever really recommend it to anyone. But it isn't all that bad. you can complete mid to mid upper push keys as either without trolling, as long as you're decent at prot warrior
if you're colossus youre pressing revenge constantly
if youre thane, youre barely pressing revenge (only to apply deep wounds, and/or to get a shield slam reset)
and that role reverses for thunderclap
I see Icy Veins has a normal priority that I can look at. I'll check that out thanks
The WoWhead one is more confusing than helpful tbh
colossus you only thunderclap for rend and/or if you need resets at low erage
thane you thunderclap a lot and burn rage mostly with IP
But what’s stopping you from revenging as thane
Instead of ip
Why can’t I just be like f dat healer
IP is off-gcd so its faster rage consumption
Let’s ignore the fact I’d just be overcapping rage constantly
more efficient to burn with IP
And pretend I’m not
lol
Let me live my revenge thane fantasy
i guess that goes without saying
yea in my experience in playing it with the instigate and bloodsurge you get so much rage you need to dump with both IP and revenge
to prevent overcapping
sure, thats good to do
I bind ip to tclap for my brain off thane keys
I know it’s not optimal but it also makes it so can press like 3 buttons and watch Netflix while getting crests
Look if blizzard can give us one button rotation I can bind ip to clap (assuming I know it’s bad)
I macro SS to IP and SB but that’s about it
I am an ironfur macroer
At least in dungeon spec
Can’t macro ironfur and cat weave properly sadly
I know yoda has some high key level prot warrior videos, does anyone else at the high level also post prot warrior content for keys?
He who shall not be named? Haha
Oh cool I see sense has some 18 to 20 videos
Awesome thanks
but im unsure if plka posts in youtube (its likely)
Also i noticed people have been talenting in the 50% bigger TC talent, which i didn't have talented, i am pretty sure my threat issues have been because I haven't been hitting everything with TC
I may have copied yoda who didn't have that selected xd
yes we all use it
it helps for gathering mobs
you shouldnt use it in workshop though
cause the slow is bad for the 1st pull
you want everything close to you for a stop to sync the bombs
what the fuck are you supposed to do against void torrent
so you can land a disrupting on all of them
gnshal dude
uhh
run in a circle around the guy
you hide behind the tree trunk
taking care of not tripping on the fences
you can run around the circle, but its far easier to just hide behind the massive tree trunk
Yeah i was curious about using it for priory on first pull, but I guess them 4 footguys aren't that dangerous and just annoying
but you can also just
stand below him
and they dont hit
its dangeours with the fire jumpy affix though
we've used it since the season started
with troar, you want rend on everything
so thunderous words buffs the bleeds
its good snap thread
also since I'm not doing it as tank
rexxar area
the bugs just absolutely delete me
annoying as fuck
burn the caster and packleader (sp?), use z-axis to prevent getting knocked to africa
the packleader puts a haste buff on the rest
you only really need to do 3 pulls there anyway
you can skip the AH pack by going to the water side
and pulling the one next to the miniboss
2 minibosses a 3 pulls of trash total
you can probably avoid the bridge pack too
Thanks for the info, I got some learning to do 🙂
but if youre about to pop gamon, it might be worth
rexxar just shits on arms ig?
no
just take it slow
his pigs come out on %
if you burst him you better have a stop and a burst ready for them
if you do him slow, you can do them 1 by 1 by 2
yeah none of the boars hit me
I simply got hit til I died
not like I have sustain
and gnshal just did void torrent on me without even casting it
icant
game just works lmao
why not just do it as prot
too ez
Tanking lockenstock is fucking miserable
If you talk about 8 masks did it as fury / I never did it as prot, yeah it is easy except 2 packs (rexxar ones ofc)
Which I just bladestormed to oblivion these 2 specific packs
that slow effect is just so miserably egregious
beg/plead a pally in the raid to give you freedom
anyone have a decent floodgate route with non bubbles skip?
noticing my standard route is getting a bit tight at 16/17 even with dps doing 4-5m overall
thats my current route
its very bad overall, are you dwarf or what is the issue with bubbles
I’m orc, no issue with bubbles just sometimes pugs don’t wanna do it
This route does well with meta classes but non meta classes struggle
maybe something like this
No you don’t need lust for momma at 16/17 though I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt
I find its just cleaner in pugs at every level tbh, lusting duo feels like such a waste
Think you’d need a priest for this and I don’t think you can do pull 6 without pulling snipers?
this is my route usually
you can
easily
also what for
priest
Skipping the pack by the stairs on duo, I guess you can jump up
This looks close to my speed
Both of those look a lot friendlier to non meta cooldowns
what is non meta cd
Usually try to go with mm/feral/enh or something similar
Rogue also solid over mm but phys classes generally don’t scale well with huge pulls
Flood is the only key that feels tight and imo usually that means route issue
Yeah, I've found my route to work pretty well, doesn't rely on any class specific things for packs
Worth messin with :3
Flood also blows as a warrior in general
ok I did it as fury
Hot
congrats
went into final boss without a shockwave because I'm stupid
ate 2 quills
just orbed
coulda kicked one ig but ye
That pull before rexxar is fucking bullshit too
I love unavoidable stuns and knockbacks and other nonsense!!
the stun is only because poison stacks
the little guys apply it
the packleader hastes them so it stacks faster
you can probably DbtS it with arms
Yeah, always focus swarmleader first, then big boys if any
yeah swarmleader, that was the name i was looking for
Nim you're looking very sparkly
indeed
1 less pull, but I think you can cook something around your 2/3 like pash does, on 4-5-8 you can definitely do something around, and you can pull extra on 10 with the 3 dudes behind
I like the lusting mama route, but the run back feels kinda sub optimal
Yeah I would prefer to bust on big momma even tho it is maybe 20+ sec loss
If you don’t do first lust on her
Apparently diver/kelp double is not a popular combo lol
I’ve gone full send on that but the healer always freaks
I guess what is scary is the kick/stop rotation pack with dudes who are coded to be desynced + spawn mines
I've been running this as a duo first route without skips when we don't have any. It avoids another architect, divers and most inspectors since people love to eat those.
how do you do the skip for the 2nd last trash pack?
Never running mythic keys again
500k dps average on a +2
Back to back,was miserable
that's all you need for a +2
Well weren’t going to time, they kept dying to mechanics
yeah, the people still doing +2s are mostly new players who don't know what's going on
or folks who just aren't trying to learn
Pulling those crocs is wild to me, each one is only a single force. I guess it’s technically free but like, inefficient lol
You're not skipping any bubbles or electric big guys and your problem is architects? 
Crocs have garbage %. Also divers are free count
Get more crabs at least and stun them before they die
is it better to run myth eye of kezan with tome of lights devotion or myth house of cards with tome of lights devotion
Depends on the content you’re doing
@frosty mango damn that booster color is nice
Like most things in my life I can just pay for the cool things with no skill or contribution involved
My raiding career in a nutshell
Yeah its 100% more efficient to do the diver packs or more crabs instead. Note If you do pull the crocs you'll need spell block as they put a stacking healer debuff on you.
Another night of wiping on lockenstock mythic, and having to hold my damage so I don’t rip aggro wheeeee
I genuinely swapped to thane for a bit to see if it helped and then I remembered thane raiding is fun cuz you just spam shield slam and go brrrr
Gaming
you shouldn't be ripping threat, that means other tank is seriously messing up
anyone notice gally not applying ego check stacks?
my co-tank is a vdh, and we never had threat problems when progging sprocket
They are a bdk that is struggling hard on this fight, yeah
bdk? plerase tell me they aren't running death bringer in raid
bdk is crazy st
PFFFT they’re san’layn but he just recently picked it up and is still relatively undergeared iirc
tell im to run rune of sanguination, will straight up increase his st by like 5% alone
LMAO
I can’t play the zugzug build on sprocket bc of aggro
This is your co-tank
Missing about 33% of total possible casts, with 44 cpm vs the 66 cpm
Oh Jesus, yeah
You always need to check if he takes the tankbuster in rankings, but it is too much of diff, yeah your cotank needs Jesus
We do have him taking the party packs right now but even then, it seems like a wide gulf
Yeah pretty extreme
And like, when he’s out with a pack is not when I’m ripping off him lol
The time he’s out should not give me that much of a lead over him, he’s just behind on his damage
Yes but if you took few party packs yourself, you would know it doesn’t take 1/3 of your time in a min
For sure. I was taking them before and still ripping aggro
Yeah, if I was at pc I could check just how much rp he’s wasting because damn the ratio of hs to ds is fucked
I don’t BDK, too much hs and not enough ds?
Well bdk players often hold runic power and waste it, which loses an absolute ton of damage, especially with Sam Layan as their death strike is super sayan
It really depends on his resource economy but at a brief glance it might not be good
Hm. I’ll bring that up with him tomorrow before raid and see if we can hammer that out because I never had threat issues with our old bdk ToT
appreciate the glance through
Yeah no problem
yeah thats very high
oof, yeah not great
The issue is : he doesn’t press buttons, and bdk specifically, he don’t press death strike like he should
What I’m guessing
You death strike almost every gcd
I changed my weakaura rune bar to change color above 2 death strike worth of rp, just to have always enough rp to death strike for the heal
death strike or heartstrike? you DS to prevent overcap, or when you need healing, or need to keep collugalpy buff up, otherwise, HS,
Yes, so you are around 80-90 rp, every builder puts you close to the overcap, you death strike, you builder again, death strike, builder again, you are again close to 80-90
ye
just wanted to make sure i was reading it right lol
Well it is the best damage button to press as bdk on ST
- it maintains shield buff 25% more phys damage
yeah
And it procs vamp strikes
it's a balancing act
I checked, it is the 3rd prio on bdk, press death strike at around 75 rp
checks out
I’ll relay back to my cotank and see if we can get him doing better lol
have you told him tome is a rly good trinket ?
I thought all tanks would’ve known that but I’ll make mention smh
maybe gently direct him to use a dinar
it is 130k of your dps just the damage proc x)
just his opener is weird to me
at 22 sec he taunts the boss, goes explode
the lack of death advance cast is a sign of "learning" player to be nice
his class talent is very questionable
Guy clearly isn't the best, ya sure trying to have him use tome is the best option?
the worst you are, the better damage proc trinkets are
Still gotta press the button to get the peoc consistently
Heck, he might even sabotage his uptime
i'm sure pash can make him install the weakaura, set up to make it scream, and on sprocket you have to press it once in the entire fight if i remember
I have no faith
yeah, but it would be better than stat sticks if he is below average player
but just the class tree, he takes kick and mass stop on sprocket (he could take 25% speed on death advance and free 12% dr)
he doesn't need to make his dnd slow 90% and grab 6% armor
Not having DND slow hurts my soul
I get it, raid... But still
i wish it slowed allies too 
the dream
we need more troll spells in wow
Not really no, grip and miss direct is enough for me 
The jokester always go to far
bop is a good one
Got cancel aura on all my buttons
my lil brother started wow, i accidentally let a "oh no" out of my mouth
we need monkahmm!
lmao happy
my younger brother plays with me, its fine
but then again hes a full adult with a kid c:
yeah i just don't want him to be addicted like me, but he plays classic hardcore so it's fine

It is, till he surpasses you every season. Happy will be surpassed sooner than most
somehow thats even worse
classic hardcore lol
it is trending in france bc a streamer plays it
i beat my brother
i trained him well
hes a better FPS player, a better RTS player, a better smash/fighting game player
i think i beat him on LoL
He is Nim, but better
he can kick my ass in mario kart too
But outside of my playfield (wow and paradox games), i get demolished 100%
that last one, enter my forge, nim
i shall craft you to be a destroyer

lmao
im waiting on my nephew
gonna train him like mr miyagi
and then my bro can train him
too bad my younger bro (we are 3) is a fortnite kid, i couldn't train him
Sure you can, just spray water on him every time he flosses
Anyone picking up MoP in July? Was Prot ok or will they rework stuff?
HE DOES FLOSS
My condolences
too close of a season + summer, I might not play
Close to S3?
S3 is like mid-late Aug
i bet on mid august
I gotchu.

you have season engine to pre-start, and you don't finish mop in 1 week
btw i finished subnautica 100% a recommend
yeah its a good game


typical jock vs nerd story
how muc haste we need for itf unbuffed?
16k with 4pc at a bare minimum to swap to ITF
otherwise you run HR
and do not be scared to just run HR all the way to 19k+ haste
no shame in doing so if you feel like your SB uptime is suffering
twitch prime
sup choco
idk i just got here
Hi, where you guys get your routes from and also where you save them? For now i use the keystoneguru, but yeah not sure if this is the way.
welcome back
yeah but youre you
I also only raid logging so and haste dont matter too much there 
Could run 13k but its a dps loss 
understandable lol
just save them in MDT and/or keystone.guru or threechest.io
i save them in my mind
but if i need a reference i load up threechest
or MDT
Sad dropping cauldron ring but jastors is simming higher
@lusty grotto yeah i dont want to create my own tbh, i just want to see for example which is pug friendly for a 15.
i just put a screenshot
And then check it or share it real quick with them team
where you can find them
you export from the site and then import through MDT
same in any site really
is threechest showing references or the best soruce is raider.io?
the best source for base routes is raider.io in my experience yes
base routes
the key word is base
W key best source of routes 
that too
kk iam @ 18,3k unbuffed so itf 😄
threechest doesnt have a lot of routes, its just an MDT replacement for your 2nd monitor
and keystone.guru has a lot of people with cooked up routes that are probably whack as fuck
but you can still use the site to view yours by importing/exporting
and raider.io already uses it to display theirs
okay i will check it out on raider io ty
this is the direct link
another question.. i have problem in DF with picking up candle, i cant click it... any possibility to bind it?
click it?
you use the action button
what do you mean click it
i hope you mean clicking the button at the very least
yeah i always click action buttons. And im not getting it where i can bind it somewhere else.
yes i dont want to click with mouse. I want to use macro or a action button. But i dont find where...
/click ExtraActionButton1
Because with mouse its always hidden behind something
make a macro with that
and bind it
that should be enough, if theres 2 buttons then you just do ExtraActionButton2 on a separate bind
the key binding menu does include it btw
i macro it yes
but ive been known to click it
cause i swap it with encounters that need a WA macro
like smolderon 😬
As a tank on rookery 2nd boss, am I expected to run out to range and give them the debuff?
Or should they be coming in?
I can pick items form 1st to 5ft in mm what i should pick?
there's no static way of doing it
you can do both or neither
it doesnt matter as long as people are getting it once for the 4 jumps
Mithic raid
mythic raid
i have killed the 5 first bosses
ok then not ft, cause that's feet
Yeah I had two range players sitting in Narnia and me and pally were the only ones taking it ahaha
And they were like “U IDIOT TANK”
in that case you can just move to them
you dont have to hug them
just be the closest target
I’ll use innervate on them muahaha
you pick nothing from the first 5
I didnt kill the bosses to get the House of cards, Jastor or Titan in myth
right
cause those arent the first 5
just wait until you get to OAB
and then make some buys there
no reason to just buy stuff you dont want right away
hey guys! anyone can tell me where i can find WA for spell reflect for S2? at Wago i only can find S1 WA
thanks u so much!
Hi, are you using the crit flask over the Alchemical Chaos?
Nope.
I personally use Vers flask on ML / PSF / Flood on certain bosses, but I might be wrong; and then switch back to Haste flask
.9% DR is yuge
To spend capacity into vers is not bad. Vers and Crit are pretty close and with Pacemaker you are getting easily into DR for crit.
at what ilvl ring should i be dropping my circlet ring ?
When it sims worse
Or when you’re tired of losing out on a ton of haste
word much appreciated
I need to go get that ring
Is it fine to have a macro with Shield Slam and Shield Block and Ignore Pain, and replace the default Shield Slam with it ?
No
🤔 what would be the issue ? I should keep Shield Block up at all times, so might as well macro it somewhere...?
but you dont always want to spam SB
if you can lose some seconds due to cap or you have plenty of sb remaining but low on rage etc.
guys very simple questions... how do you maintain shield block 100% uptime if you have 2 charges with 14 seconds cd and the duration is 8 seconds?
also for the colossus m+ talents, is it always true that ravage as higher priority than execute? when do i use execute?
shield charge gives shield block + 4p gives shield charge cdr
Shield Slam extends Shield Block by one second
Only if you talent into HR. If you have enough haste you talent into ITF and then you won’t have HR anymore.
The m+ talents play into the fray instead of that talent?
Ty for your answers
what about the execute part?
for ITF you need 16k haste + 4p
And most of us run more haste than that
Amazing so I play HR if i have no gear
yea
I do not understand execute, on wowhead guide it has less priority than ravage so why would i ever use that spell?
you only need to have Shield Block up when taking blockable damage and when pressing Shield Slam!

When am I not trying to press shield slam
Execute is good in raid with the execute build
but other than that I almost never press it
I try to use it on bosses but honestly I can't tell if I do more damage than just spamming revenge
since revenge gives rage refunds
and revenge in 3+ targets, if playing colo, gives colossal might stacks
amazing thanks so i can basically unbind execute in m+
Huh
nah I think it's worth pressing over revenge on <2 targets
as long as you spend the full 40 rage
if you're buffed it slaps too
it can be useful on bosses
Never
Sorry I was being sarcastic
lol you woke the admin with that comment xD
my issue is that it only really feels good buffed when it can hit like 4m every press
so I feel like it's only worth using in higher keys where that last 20% actually lasts a bit
🤔
damn I wanna go execute rookery final boss now
Yooo, what leg enchant do we go? I see people doing 2 different ones
defender's armor kit
Why not stormbound?
armor best stat
Armor doesn't help with magic though, isn't that where we are weak?
huh? do you actually need the extra armor though????
Armor's the most important stat for your tankiness
and it gives strength
because of Armored to The Teeth
I'm convinced
regarding magic, that's mainly a just playing correctly thing
and when it hits for 1m it feels worse than revenge hitting for, lets say, 400k? 🤷♂️
Thanks @round pendant
somehow, yes
lmao I didn't say it makes sense
I do gotta press it more
but

That leg enchant ain’t helping with magic either, that’s like wrapping yourself in tinfoil and running into a fire
Like yes technically it’s doing something
Thats not why we take it, its just a slight increase because armoured to the teeth over the other
Revenge has higher priority because you want to snipe for shield slam resets. Execute is just a rage dump. Honestly, execute is in a bad place right now for all warr specs.
That armour gunna do nothing for tankiness and tbh does nothing for damage just slightly more than the other nothing from the other one
Doesn’t execute and revenge both reset shield slam
Yeah they both do
Revenge just costs less rage
Our ignore pain scales off of hp or strength?
Um, acktually, if you have 20 rage, they both cost the same 🙂
Actually Revenge spam - Shield Slam procs - Violent Outburst - Shield Slam should be general rotation for say every chill single target situations - King Mekagon, Rookery 1/3 bosses etc
Shield Slam procs are more valuable than Execute
You can get more revenges though so more ss resets 🤔
IP's per value scales off attack power iirc
and its cap is 30% of max hp
Execute is pretty impactful if you can keep up jugg with add sniping which is representative of skill expression but there aren’t many add fights
yeah execute is good in raid
@pallid quiver gracies
But execute phases don’t last long
So if you’re just relying on execute at 35 and below you’re gonna be disappointed
By the time you stack jugg the boss is already mostly dead
And make the mobs bleed for 5000% weapon damage
huge
No way boomer said weapon damage
Guilty 
Imo we had the dragonflight tier set in s3 and then they balanced execute around that and never gave it a new pass
So it’s just been stuck in poop land since
Not good but not bad
Well these 1 hour queues for 17s are not helping and my sub expired. Time to roll out Satisfactory 1.1
Was a good sesson
What server you on
Europe
I know for a fact I’m falling giga behind because of this work trip lol
Oof yeah I was like top 50 region
It hasn’t been good for a long time
Not because of df s3
Df s3 propped it up and imo because of that it was never properly looked at
For dps specs
The conversation was about all warrior specs
Don’t disagree
In shadowlands execute was hitting for 50-60% more than it does now
But that was allowed for prot warrior
Since prot had no sd no jug no mass
I’m saying arms was getting use from it at the end of df so it probably got ignored more than it should have
Need more Zug!!
It’s go too many weakauras pre 35
thats the only issue
And that’s also a jug issue not a execute issue
I love juggernaut stack slot machine
If anything they had to do a lot more work on arms so it’s not pressing execute x50

Prot execute in sl was the hardest hitting spell in the game
For a rotational spell
They just need to make execute sound like a big boom
And not a whoosh
Then it would be instantly better
Not before shield slam frying pan
They can use the same sound
In fact just make all warrior skills use the explosive shot sound
Demolish doest sound like a blunt giga smash trauma, more like you're filetting the fish
Hi guys. I am trying to tank some higher keys 15 and 16's
Trinket wise it makes most sense to use 2 on use shield trinkets - Ritual Mud and Bombsuit and I sit in defensive stance the whole dungoen
Is that all sensible or should I be able to survive without doing all of that?
You should be able to survive without that
You don’t need double defensive trinkets
But defensive stance should be standard yes
Just Mud+ talent BsV for Dailcry/Momma. Otherwise dmg trinkets
I wouldn't say always ☝️ 🤓
For the purposes of people asking which trinkets to use they should always be in defensive stance

Ok guys useful advice. I main DPS but enjoying Tanking and wanting to push the keys up a bit higher
Defensive stance makes sense
what is BsV?
Momma , 1st boss from floodgate
Sorry what is Dailcry?
Battle scarred veteran
Bsv is battle scarred veteran, last warrior talent on the prot tree in the middle
Bottom middle talent in spec tree
Dailcry is the first boss in priory
Dailcry is
ah yes is that a bleed boss
Always do pretty much
Having a tough time funnily enough with Taskmaster Askari in Motherload on 16's
When he stops to do his aoe, you can just put a little distance and it should have a chance to reset
Just dont outrange your healer
Wait, I thought you meant Rixxa Fluxflame
Yeah FLuxflame sucks too but seem to be able to handle the bleed ability better with spell block
Hers isn't a bleed. Her auto attack is spell damage.
But yeah spell block and SR both great there
Oh one more thing, I tend to dump rage mostly into Revenge for AOE cleave and very rarely use ignore pain
Is IP something I want to use more often?
Considering you said very rarely, I would say yes.
Your main rage dump is going to be revenge but you need to use IP quite a lot to prevent overcapping rage. If you're very rarely pressing it, you're probably wasting a ton of rage to overcapping.
I tend to find if I use IP once or even twice I end up slightly rage starved.....
twice is too much obvi
as it eats up my rage bar whereas Revenge seems to be kinder on it
Do you have any logs?
when you first pull and you
ACK
when you first pull and you're chaining all your CDs, you barely have time to press revenge and you still need to avoid overcapping
if you're pressing shield slam on CD, you should find there are times when you're up at 70-80 rage and it's not gonna be possible to exclusively dump it into revenge
Especially since you could reset SS and gain that rage right back
Create weakaura that makes annoying noise when rage > 70 or 75
Press ip to stop annoying noise
Be happy
One day notice noise has stopped completely
Congratulations you have Pavlov’d yourself
did you die?
I pressed enter on the message above before I was done lol
Y'all see the big class changes for 11.1.7
New Ability: Recuperate – Take a breather, prepare some food and have a meal. Restores 50% of your maximum health over 10 seconds.
hi folks,
shall this macro go like this :
#showtooltip Ignore Pain
/cast Shield Slam
/cast Ignore Pain
or the other way around ?
"Take a breather"
is that you roadhog? is your asthma acting up?
doesn't matter
IP isn't on the gcd

I think a good minority of my guild will benefit from being a 1 button Andy, I'm just hoping it gets us a Sprocket kill
lol
Nah because it doesn’t restore mana
My buddy just got his critical care flight wings as a life flight medic. Just wanted to share that.
thats awesome
I dunno I was testing it on ptr
Sorry to tell you I don’t think it’s gonna help lol
My spriest was getting a huge 900k single target at 670 lol
I really wouldn’t, lol
Speaking of this
When was the last time prot didn’t take devastator
maybe bfa? big maybe
i remember using devestate then but I was brand new to game then
bfa yes
we didnt run devastator in bfa except for ST parsing
from SL onwards we ran devastator
So been a constant for half a decade maybe they just bake it in at this point
baking stuff in kinda goes against the whole skill tree they tried doing
I wish they would give swipe the devestator treatment
calling me out i see lol
lmao
its just a common misspelling
I just need a top 16 and they don’t exist
Theater of Pain?
greetings this maybe sounds like a stupid question but does it make sense to sim as a tank and if so what do you sim
because as a dps it´s pretty clear for dmg but as a tank you cant sim survivability
yes we sim as tanks
thats what we do
the only slots that you dont follow sims on are shields (which is ilvl > all anyway) and defensive trinkets (bombsuit and mud)
thats it
yeah but you cant sim survivability
turns out
your secondaries
are both offensive and defensive
so we sim them out
cause if you gain dps from them, youre gaining defensiveness
we're well aware "you cant sim defensiveness"
we still sim
does this work for all tanks
yes
all tanks sim
every tank discord will tell you to do so
its not complicated
yes thats the healer sim site
The the QE live site. Right?
is ask mr.robot a legit sim site or would you rather prefer raidbots
Raidbots
dont use mr robot
What’s ask mr robot? Never heard of it
ever
ask mr robot, a meme site
that claims to have a defensive sim
which has been questionable for like 4 expasions
someone asked me about st dps in dungeon spec on higher key bosses the other day and I said I'd get back to you with and I didnt
I trust in mr Roidberg
but whoever it was that asked me thats candle boss on a 16 dfc
Pretty low, no?
we were talking about the diff between being able to stay in melee
and not
that boss has 100% uptime and its a pretty large diff in dps
Uptime is giga, so makes sense 
dps are always running candles there so they have poop uptime
lol
if the healer can handle it keep sending
or just bring a monk, roll op for candles
leap+cast costs little
on aoe at least
whoever gets circle gets theirs
thats it
I refuse to leave candle if avatar is running
The most cursed boss is the duo bomb boss... Get bomb, run out. Get arrow, wait... Then get bomb
Did a 14ML a couple of days ago with this build, just straight damage.

Or ToP always going down 👎👎
Wouldn’t you get more net damage out of show of force and massacre
Guy is using roar and spear, it is about sending a message.
Also I think thunderous words is prob more damage than spear
I could be wrong here
but i think spear alone wont outweigh the roar bleed bonus during burst?
thats such a cursed build
on an ML lol
"fuck spell block on rixxa i guess"
"fuck my aoe damage i guess"
not to mention that abomination of spear + troar without full talents
what do you even need spear for in ML lol
without the Piercing and Champ's Might
cant make the utility argument because nothing jumps there
No doubt on the show of force being my all time preference. I was nervous going into a 14 but not nervous enough to spec into BS apparently. To some degree I find single target bosses to be sometimes slow in pugs and I wanted more avatar uptime. This also means a free shield wall going into a pull
what do you even mean more avatar uptime
theres literally no difference in avatar uptime between this and the standard build
meme'est build ever
Nim don't attack, let the man explain. I am bored waiting for the buss, and curious
its my job, cat
No actually though I appreciate it. I'm a moron trying to learn too
Try to explain your logic
Upgraded Champ Spear is sick Vs bosses💪 but Roar more important for aggro packs
Actual video of Nim waiting for someone with a hot take
standard build
https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/warrior/protection/colossus/DAPBUVBREUgYVIoUFQBANVUVFRQRFVZUVQCVAEVVVUBQ spear build
https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/warrior/protection/colossus/DAOBUVFREQgYVIpRUBANVUVFRERFVZUUUDRQAEVVVUBQ need BSV? and dont need Disrupting?
Meme aside, it will be easier to learn for you. To understand what things do and how they work, if we discuss what you want to achieve and how you go about to do it.
Many got ideas that seem logical, cause you don't have a decade worth of specialized wow experience 
Opportunity cost is always the most underrated one
No way, 14s is weekly keys for vault
if that was the case none of you would be here
and you would be following yoda's builds
and/or archon
Nah, I wouldn't. I played beta 
Technically I'm here to complain about VDHs 
or whatever garbage builds you find in 10s
I was fighting you guys
Saying prot was low dam
Shame on u
Only Nome had my back 
If you're feeling bad, remember that Pain and Gain gives 300k hp every 10 seconds and it still went live 
john fucking madden
thats right
prot damage is still low
thats the play
un nerf revenge
make warrior great again
lets go guys its time to light shit on fire
Ya clearly didn't play beta, if you say it was low during it
I 100% prefer show of force hands down, it's always superior. But there's something about sudden death with the free execute that makes bosses bearable.
Pain and gain > second wind, but had a feeling I would prefer my healer to top up dps over me pulling next pack
Never forget, they gave us barbaric training only to take it away a patch note later
Pain and gain > second wind, but had a feeling I would prefer my healer to top up dps over me pulling next pack
neither of them are good
you know what makes bosse bearable?
Violent Outburst
Anyone that uses the arguement "I like it more", feel free to use it. Game is about enjoying the gameplay
execute does little for colossus it doesnt stack Colossal Might
you're missing out
but hey
if you wanna play it, play it
Show of Force is for Thane, not Colossus
thats the least horrible pick in your build anyway
This is basically what I do generally.
Although I give up the 1 point in heroic leap and put it into bitter immunity
Nim play nice, he called 14s xp better than our theorycrafters
