Yes they are bad, tell them to come talk to us 🤣

slender bison
#

Threat buffed to 950% of Tank's Damage (was 815%)

lusty grotto
#

yes we're aware

slender bison
#

Still not clear how shaman steals agro

frosty mango
#

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

slender bison
#

One shield slam with no VO is like 600K

#

But this happens in high keys

#

Same item level in 10-14s, never had issues

frosty mango
#

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

slender bison
#

I had issues with Hero weapon with all the sweatlords with 681/684 pumping post turbo boost. Had to craft too

slender bison
frosty mango
#

Like overall or on the boss itself

slender bison
#

Boss only

frosty mango
#

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

slender bison
#

1st boss, not last

#

The bird

frosty mango
#

Oh

#

1.4-1.5ish

slender bison
#

Colossus?

frosty mango
#

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

slender bison
nocturne spindle
#

thane is pretty much even on single target

#

its the aoe it loses out on

frosty mango
#

I’ve played some thane keys

#

Single target is similar or better

#

Thane has great rage economy

lusty grotto
#

thats 8% less than Colossus Execute

frosty mango
lusty grotto
#

scratch that

#

its 9.9% less

frosty mango
#

Fight times are longer and execute is a smaller portion of your overall contribution - as we scale up demolish goes kinda nuts

lusty grotto
#

thats a 5 min ST sim

frosty mango
#

Given current tuning I would expect colossus to keep pulling away

lusty grotto
#

lets see the 3min

frosty mango
#

Sim 3m

lusty grotto
#

dont worry im on it

frosty mango
#

You gotta do a sim after without raid buffs

lusty grotto
#

3 mins

frosty mango
#

Hm

#

The thane keys I’ve run my single target didn’t really go down

lusty grotto
#

3 mins, no lust, no buffs

#

not even battle shout

frosty mango
#

Though I’m admittedly in execute longer on my thane keys because they tend to be carry keys or brain off keys

lusty grotto
#

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

frosty mango
#

I tested thane in priory 12s and avg overalls were around 2.5m

lusty grotto
#

sounds about right

frosty mango
#

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?

lusty grotto
#

yeah

frosty mango
#

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

lusty grotto
#

im not ingame atm but

#

going by armory

#

im at 16751 crit

#

19,102 haste

pallid quiver
#

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

lusty grotto
#

yeah, but its still gonna be less than colossus

pallid quiver
#

Even then, it's not like Colo execute is bad

warm plinth
#

I assume that sims have a fixed execute phase though

#

So that wouldn't really change with gear

frosty mango
#

Yeah I have 22k/18k in thane gear

pallid quiver
#

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

lusty grotto
#

yeah this isnt really news

pallid quiver
#

You'd have to ask an actual M raider for that, though, since I don't fully know

lusty grotto
#

i dont think thane is good at all

#

period

pallid quiver
#

So none of these sims surprise me, even after the buff it got at some point

frosty mango
#

I’m not surprised to see colo ahead as gear scales but 10%?

pallid quiver
#

It theoretically could be tankier if you needed to cycle Shield Wall more often, but that's relatively minor

frosty mango
#

That’s pretty massive

lusty grotto
#

thats just not gonna happen in any fight luerce

pallid quiver
#

Immovable Object also can enable you to fit damage profiles, more, as well

warm plinth
#

ok

pallid quiver
warm plinth
#

Real talk though

lusty grotto
#

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

warm plinth
#

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.

lusty grotto
#

kinda feel the same tbh

pallid quiver
#

i saw nim's name being all weird

frosty mango
lusty grotto
#

oh

pallid quiver
#

and i was like "i can't be assed"

warm plinth
#

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)

lusty grotto
#

that would make a difference i guess

warm plinth
#

Gradient are animated as well

#

Hover over the mods

#

Those are gradient roles

lusty grotto
#

those arent animated ghash

#

they just glow more

frosty mango
#

The holo ones have like a shimmer animation

pallid quiver
#

i'm pretty sure the mod's roles are animated

#

the blue goes to orange and orange to blue

frosty mango
#

Doesn’t work on mobile

frosty mango
#

Yea that’s holo I think?

warm plinth
#

No

#

Holographic can't be customized. You and Nim are holo

#

That's the only color of holo there is

lusty grotto
#

ok thats not happening in my desktop app

warm plinth
#

If you see ones that are other colors, it's gradient

pallid quiver
#

smh nim's graphics card can't meet the strict requirements asked of by the discord desktop app

warm plinth
frosty mango
#

Suspect

warm plinth
#

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

lusty grotto
#

yeah well its a mystery

#

discord trying to sell the same thing as different things

#

c:

warm plinth
#

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

frosty mango
#

Do it

#

For science

warm plinth
lusty grotto
#

yeah its animated

warm plinth
#

It doesn't look different to me though (besides maybe a slight difference in colors due to my bad selection)

light sorrel
#

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?

warm plinth
#

That is not correct

lusty grotto
#

as what

#

are you thane?

#

or colossus?

light sorrel
#

I'm leveling currently but I'll copy paste whatever list is recommended for M+ at 80

lusty grotto
#

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

light sorrel
#

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

lusty grotto
#

the priority section on wowhead should be on point

#

but icy veins can also provide some explanation

#

tl;dr though

urban bane
#

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

lusty grotto
#

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

light sorrel
#

The WoWhead one is more confusing than helpful tbh

lusty grotto
#

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

frosty mango
#

But what’s stopping you from revenging as thane

#

Instead of ip

#

Why can’t I just be like f dat healer

lusty grotto
#

IP is off-gcd so its faster rage consumption

frosty mango
#

Let’s ignore the fact I’d just be overcapping rage constantly

lusty grotto
#

more efficient to burn with IP

frosty mango
#

And pretend I’m not

lusty grotto
#

lol

frosty mango
#

Let me live my revenge thane fantasy

lusty grotto
#

i guess that goes without saying

urban bane
#

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

lusty grotto
#

sure, thats good to do

frosty mango
#

I bind ip to tclap for my brain off thane keys

lusty grotto
#

roidberg aka dj jazzy

frosty mango
#

I know it’s not optimal but it also makes it so can press like 3 buttons and watch Netflix while getting crests

lusty grotto
frosty mango
#

Look if blizzard can give us one button rotation I can bind ip to clap (assuming I know it’s bad)

lusty grotto
#

lmao

#

rafiki saying no to Roidberg and bears that macro ironfur to everything

frosty mango
#

At least in dungeon spec

#

Can’t macro ironfur and cat weave properly sadly

lusty grotto
#

SIGH

#

roidberg y u do dis

jolly swift
#

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?

lusty grotto
#

sense

#

is our only recommended one

#

and plka

#

not who you mentioned

jolly swift
#

He who shall not be named? Haha

lusty grotto
#

both of those are good

#

and are present in this channel

jolly swift
#

Oh cool I see sense has some 18 to 20 videos

lusty grotto
#

sense also has a twitch

jolly swift
#

Awesome thanks

lusty grotto
#

but im unsure if plka posts in youtube (its likely)

jolly swift
#

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

lusty grotto
#

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

round pendant
#

what the fuck are you supposed to do against void torrent

lusty grotto
#

so you can land a disrupting on all of them

round pendant
#

gnshal dude

lusty grotto
#

uhh

digital sparrow
#

run in a circle around the guy

lusty grotto
#

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

jolly swift
lusty grotto
#

but you can also just

#

stand below him

#

and they dont hit

#

its dangeours with the fire jumpy affix though

lusty grotto
#

with troar, you want rend on everything

#

so thunderous words buffs the bleeds

#

its good snap thread

round pendant
#

also since I'm not doing it as tank

#

rexxar area

#

the bugs just absolutely delete me

lusty grotto
#

rexxar you just take it slow

#

oh

#

yeah those bugs are

round pendant
#

they all cast at the same time and just delete you

#

wtf?

lusty grotto
#

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

nocturne spindle
#

rexxar you just

#

aoe interrupt

#

and press demolish

lusty grotto
#

yeah hes not asking about rexxar

#

hes asking about the trash

nocturne spindle
#

yea you just

#

press demolish

#

and wait between small bug packs

#

lmao

lusty grotto
#

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

jolly swift
lusty grotto
#

but if youre about to pop gamon, it might be worth

round pendant
#

cool

#

I clipped into the ground

#

very nice very cool

round pendant
#

rexxar just shits on arms ig?

lusty grotto
#

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

frosty mango
#

@lusty grotto my thane also kinda far behind - 4% though vs 10 for yours

round pendant
#

yeah none of the boars hit me

#

I simply got hit til I died

#

not like I have sustain

lusty grotto
#

yeah idk about that

#

i did them as prot so i wouldnt know

round pendant
#

and gnshal just did void torrent on me without even casting it

#

icant

#

game just works lmao

nocturne spindle
#

why not just do it as prot

round pendant
#

too ez

lusty grotto
#

its easier as dps

#

from what ive heard

#

you just cant pull big due to bolstering

#

Tanking lockenstock is fucking miserable

Which I just bladestormed to oblivion these 2 specific packs

frosty mango
#

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

grim pilot
#

its very bad overall, are you dwarf or what is the issue with bubbles

frosty mango
#

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

grim pilot
#

maybe something like this

undone beacon
#

Weird

frosty mango
undone beacon
#

I find its just cleaner in pugs at every level tbh, lusting duo feels like such a waste

frosty mango
undone beacon
#

this is my route usually

grim pilot
#

easily

#

also what for

#

priest

frosty mango
#

Skipping the pack by the stairs on duo, I guess you can jump up

grim pilot
#

youre fine

#

without priest

grim pilot
#

what i sent is specifically without priest

#

what i play usually

#

is dif

frosty mango
#

Both of those look a lot friendlier to non meta cooldowns

grim pilot
#

what is non meta cd

frosty mango
#

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

undone beacon
#

Yeah, I've found my route to work pretty well, doesn't rely on any class specific things for packs

#

Worth messin with :3

frosty mango
#

Flood also blows as a warrior in general

round pendant
#

ok I did it as fury

bleak breach
#

Hot

lusty grotto
#

congrats

round pendant
#

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!!

lusty grotto
#

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

warm plinth
#

Yeah, always focus swarmleader first, then big boys if any

lusty grotto
#

yeah swarmleader, that was the name i was looking for

coarse latch
#

Nim you're looking very sparkly

lusty grotto
#

indeed

sharp gale
# frosty mango This looks close to my speed

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

jagged gust
#

I like the lusting mama route, but the run back feels kinda sub optimal

sharp gale
#

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

frosty mango
#

Apparently diver/kelp double is not a popular combo lol

#

I’ve gone full send on that but the healer always freaks

sharp gale
#

I guess what is scary is the kick/stop rotation pack with dudes who are coded to be desynced + spawn mines

lone current
#

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.

jagged gust
#

how do you do the skip for the 2nd last trash pack?

magic sail
#

Never running mythic keys again

#

500k dps average on a +2

#

Back to back,was miserable

mighty valley
#

that's all you need for a +2

magic sail
mighty valley
#

yeah, the people still doing +2s are mostly new players who don't know what's going on

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

frosty mango
#

Like most things in my life I can just pay for the cool things with no skill or contribution involved

jagged gust
#

My raiding career in a nutshell

lone current
#

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.

undone beacon
#

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

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

undone beacon
#

We do have him taking the party packs right now but even then, it seems like a wide gulf

small steeple
#

Yeah pretty extreme

undone beacon
#

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

sharp gale
#

Yes but if you took few party packs yourself, you would know it doesn’t take 1/3 of your time in a min

undone beacon
small steeple
#

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

undone beacon
#

I don’t BDK, too much hs and not enough ds?

small steeple
#

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

undone beacon
#

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

small steeple
#

Yeah no problem

undone beacon
#

oof, yeah not great

sharp gale
#

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

small steeple
sharp gale
small steeple
#

just wanted to make sure i was reading it right lol

sharp gale
#

Well it is the best damage button to press as bdk on ST

#
  • it maintains shield buff 25% more phys damage
small steeple
#

yeah

sharp gale
#

And it procs vamp strikes

small steeple
#

it's a balancing act

sharp gale
#

I checked, it is the 3rd prio on bdk, press death strike at around 75 rp

small steeple
#

checks out

#

I’ll relay back to my cotank and see if we can get him doing better lol

sharp gale
undone beacon
#

I thought all tanks would’ve known that but I’ll make mention smh

sharp gale
#

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

cerulean tusk
#

Guy clearly isn't the best, ya sure trying to have him use tome is the best option?

sharp gale
cerulean tusk
#

Still gotta press the button to get the peoc consistently

#

Heck, he might even sabotage his uptime

sharp gale
#

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

cerulean tusk
#

I have no faith

sharp gale
#

yeah, but it would be better than stat sticks if he is below average player

cerulean tusk
#

Only if he doesn't fuck it up

#

Just have him use whatever passive stick he got peepostudy

sharp gale
#

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 sadge I get it, raid... But still

how muc haste we need for itf unbuffed?

lusty grotto
#

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

#

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.

lusty grotto
#

welcome back

jagged pier
#

Then theres me with like 15k haste running itf

lusty grotto
#

yeah but youre you

jagged pier
#

I also only raid logging so and haste dont matter too much there shruge

jagged pier
#

Could run 13k but its a dps loss sadge

lusty grotto
#

understandable lol

lusty grotto
#

i save them in my mind

#

but if i need a reference i load up threechest

#

or MDT

jagged pier
#

Sad dropping cauldron ring but jastors is simming higher

hearty kettle
#

@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.

lusty grotto
#

i just put a screenshot

hearty kettle
#

And then check it or share it real quick with them team

lusty grotto
#

where you can find them

#

you export from the site and then import through MDT

#

same in any site really

hearty kettle
lusty grotto
#

the best source for base routes is raider.io in my experience yes

#

base routes

#

the key word is base

jagged pier
#

W key best source of routes nodders

lusty grotto
#

that too

remote dawn
#

kk iam @ 18,3k unbuffed so itf 😄

lusty grotto
#

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

hearty kettle
#

okay i will check it out on raider io ty

lusty grotto
#

this is the direct link

hearty kettle
#

another question.. i have problem in DF with picking up candle, i cant click it... any possibility to bind it?

lusty grotto
#

click it?

#

you use the action button

#

what do you mean click it

#

i hope you mean clicking the button at the very least

hearty kettle
#

yeah i always click action buttons. And im not getting it where i can bind it somewhere else.

lusty grotto
#

you can make a macro

#

but im pretty sure WoW has a way to bind them by default

hearty kettle
#

yes i dont want to click with mouse. I want to use macro or a action button. But i dont find where...

lusty grotto
#

/click ExtraActionButton1

hearty kettle
#

Because with mouse its always hidden behind something

lusty grotto
#

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

hearty kettle
#

sounds good! ty

#

Do you use the same?

lusty grotto
#

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?

sharp pasture
#

I can pick items form 1st to 5ft in mm what i should pick?

lusty grotto
#

can you clarify

#

what is mm

#

and what does 1st to 5ft mean

lusty grotto
#

you can do both or neither

#

it doesnt matter as long as people are getting it once for the 4 jumps

ok then not ft, cause that's feet

sharp merlin
#

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”

lusty grotto
#

in that case you can just move to them

#

you dont have to hug them

#

just be the closest target

sharp merlin
#

I’ll use innervate on them muahaha

lusty grotto
#

what

#

this is skyhold not dreamgrove

sharp merlin
#

I meant intervene

#

Hahaha sorry!

sharp pasture
lusty grotto
#

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

Hi, are you using the crit flask over the Alchemical Chaos?

ionic fern
#

Nope.

sharp merlin
#

I personally use Vers flask on ML / PSF / Flood on certain bosses, but I might be wrong; and then switch back to Haste flask

warm plinth
#

That's like

#

1.8% DR

jagged pier
#

.9% DR is yuge

ionic nimbus
#

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 ?

#

Is it fine to have a macro with Shield Slam and Shield Block and Ignore Pain, and replace the default Shield Slam with it ?

nocturne spindle
#

No

inner plank
#

🤔 what would be the issue ? I should keep Shield Block up at all times, so might as well macro it somewhere...?

hardy snow
#

if you can lose some seconds due to cap or you have plenty of sb remaining but low on rage etc.

neat nacelle
#

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?

round pendant
#

shield charge gives shield block + 4p gives shield charge cdr

inner plank
solid sun
#

Only if you talent into HR. If you have enough haste you talent into ITF and then you won’t have HR anymore.

neat nacelle
#

The m+ talents play into the fray instead of that talent?

#

Ty for your answers

#

what about the execute part?

round pendant
#

for ITF you need 16k haste + 4p

solid sun
#

And most of us run more haste than that

neat nacelle
#

Amazing so I play HR if i have no gear

round pendant
#

yea

neat nacelle
#

I do not understand execute, on wowhead guide it has less priority than ravage so why would i ever use that spell?

lime urchin
round pendant
solid sun
#

When am I not trying to press shield slam

round pendant
#

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

hardy snow
#

and revenge in 3+ targets, if playing colo, gives colossal might stacks

neat nacelle
#

amazing thanks so i can basically unbind execute in m+

solid sun
#

Huh

round pendant
#

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

hardy snow
#

it can be useful on bosses

#

huh? do you actually need the extra armor though????

round pendant

Armor's the most important stat for your tankiness

#

and it gives strength

#

because of Armored to The Teeth

crimson river

I'm convinced

round pendant
#

regarding magic, that's mainly a just playing correctly thing

hardy snow
crimson river
#

Thanks @round pendant

#

lmao I didn't say it makes sense

#

I do gotta press it more

#

but

frosty mango
#

Like yes technically it’s doing something

jagged pier
slender bison
jagged pier
#

That armour gunna do nothing for tankiness and tbh does nothing for damage just slightly more than the other nothing from the other one

round pendant
#

Yeah it's small but it's better than stamina

#

just like you said

urban portal
#

Doesn’t execute and revenge both reset shield slam

#

Yeah they both do

#

Revenge just costs less rage

crimson river
#

Our ignore pain scales off of hp or strength?

frosty mango
#

I don’t think execute is in a bad place

#

I think fight design doesn’t support it

pallid quiver
slender bison
#

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

round pendant
#

You can get more revenges though so more ss resets 🤔

pallid quiver
#

and its cap is 30% of max hp

frosty mango
#

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

round pendant
#

yeah execute is good in raid

crimson river
#

@pallid quiver gracies

frosty mango
#

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

round pendant
#

I want sudden death to just be a baseline thing

#

it's fun

#

make it cleave too

slender bison
#

And make the mobs bleed for 5000% weapon damage

round pendant
#

huge

urban portal
#

No way boomer said weapon damage

slender bison
#

Guilty keks

frosty mango
#

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

slender bison
#

Well these 1 hour queues for 17s are not helping and my sub expired. Time to roll out Satisfactory 1.1

chilly brook
#

I know for a fact I’m falling giga behind because of this work trip lol

#

Oof yeah I was like top 50 region

urban portal
#

Not because of df s3

frosty mango
#

Df s3 propped it up and imo because of that it was never properly looked at

#

For dps specs

urban portal
#

And how does df s3 have anything to do with execute

#

It’s shield slam and bleeds

frosty mango
#

The conversation was about all warrior specs

urban portal
#

Oh ye

#

But no

#

The reason why exec is bad

#

Is because of talent trees

frosty mango
#

Don’t disagree

urban portal
#

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

frosty mango
#

I’m saying arms was getting use from it at the end of df so it probably got ignored more than it should have

urban portal
#

No? Arms is still using it

#

Arms execute is fine

dusky canopy
#

Need more Zug!!

urban portal
#

It’s go too many weakauras pre 35

#

thats the only issue

#

And that’s also a jug issue not a execute issue

dusky canopy
#

I love juggernaut stack slot machine

urban portal
#

If anything they had to do a lot more work on arms so it’s not pressing execute x50

dusky canopy
urban portal
#

Prot execute in sl was the hardest hitting spell in the game

#

For a rotational spell

frosty mango
#

They just need to make execute sound like a big boom

#

And not a whoosh

#

Then it would be instantly better

slender bison
#

Not before shield slam frying pan

frosty mango
#

They can use the same sound

#

In fact just make all warrior skills use the explosive shot sound

slender bison
#

Demolish doest sound like a blunt giga smash trauma, more like you're filetting the fish

frosty mango
#

Imagine

#

If it was just boom boom boom boom boom boooom

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?

crimson river
#

You should be able to survive without that

urban portal
#

You don’t need double defensive trinkets

#

But defensive stance should be standard yes

frosty mango
#

15/16 you can use pacemaker plus tome

#

You should always be in defensive stance

slender bison
#

Just Mud+ talent BsV for Dailcry/Momma. Otherwise dmg trinkets

Ok guys useful advice. I main DPS but enjoying Tanking and wanting to push the keys up a bit higher

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

crimson river
#

Wait, I thought you meant Rixxa Fluxflame

tardy juniper
#

Yeah FLuxflame sucks too but seem to be able to handle the bleed ability better with spell block

warm plinth
#

Hers isn't a bleed. Her auto attack is spell damage.

#

But yeah spell block and SR both great there

tardy juniper
#

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?

warm plinth
#

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.

tardy juniper
#

I tend to find if I use IP once or even twice I end up slightly rage starved.....

round cliff
#

twice is too much obvi

tardy juniper
#

as it eats up my rage bar whereas Revenge seems to be kinder on it

warm plinth
#

Do you have any logs?

mighty valley
#

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

warm plinth
#

Especially since you could reset SS and gain that rage right back

frosty mango
#

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

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

lusty grotto
#

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

stone condor
#

yeah but you cant sim survivability

lusty grotto
#

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

stone condor
#

does this work for all tanks

lusty grotto

we were talking about the diff between being able to stay in melee

that boss has 100% uptime and its a pretty large diff in dps

Uptime is giga, so makes sense okayge

dps are always running candles there so they have poop uptime

I don't, healer job

if the healer can handle it keep sending

or just bring a monk, roll op for candles
