warior never shut up about how much dmg his execute do

willow edge
#

I do think that execute needs to be a good damage button since we refer to sub 35% on bosses as the "execute phase" generally

cerulean tusk
#

It is called execute phase, but in true blizz fun detected fashion, the ability Execute is not the best at all times during it

tribal wharf
#

i think something minor but important is "gibbing" overkilled enemies, ||(surprise it's from doom)|| and simply its if you deal enough damag, the target can fly back or even explode into pieces

#

like say you run into old raid

#

or you kill a roach

cerulean tusk
#

peepostudy sure, why not

tribal wharf
#

or like, its like, you deal enough overall dmg of some kind during whatevr a game tic is in wow

#

like some like 3/5/10 second window

frosty mango
#

They gave it to hunters sorry

willow edge
frosty mango
tribal wharf
#

i think for prot on start of combat for first 10 seconds you can cast empowered above 90% hp execute, 1 time, hits 3 targets

#

increased damage

willow edge
#

Tbf, I looked at the upcoming talent changes and kinda thought the execute talents they are adding were a bit dumb for a tank.

slim dove
#

only warrior should have execute mechanics deadge

tribal wharf
#

good execute mechanics

#

so condemn

#

above 70%,

#

for prot

frosty mango
#

And also below 70

#

and red right hand should make execute hit all targets within 100 yards at 100% effectiveness

#

Also it should cost no rage

tribal wharf
#

i like my idea better 1 time use, deals x2 x3 dmg to main targ3t, cleaves

#

cant miss cant be blocked, parried or dodged, maybe avoid

#

goes through armor

#

maybe some classes get free choose 1 talents choose menacer or int shout, but y9u dont spend talent to have that option

#

i dont play other classes so i dont have great list what qualifies for that, but like maybe priest mind control, dunni its power lvl, one is passive pet, other is direct control channel

#

so mass invis vsmass sheep would be too powerful to put on that

#

that and id remove any ability you never ever will use, nobig examp.es again so like warrior prot slam and whirl win

#

cuz like you coupd do 50m ww dmg, but i bet you could have done 200m just hitting revsnge tc

frosty mango
#

@warm plinth

#

I thought this was you for a second and I was very confused

#

I should sleep

warm plinth
#

Lol. Bit different

limpid ruin
#

Meh close enough

tribal wharf
#

"i just, i need to stop for a second, because i dont think i've properly discuss this game, i don't think i CAN describe this experience. Every moment is suffering and confusion, and regretting every choice i have made in my life, because this is one of the worst things i've ever played, even playing this game under the best of conditions, with everything working, it feels like i've bitten off more than i can chew" civvie about some dos game

#

and thats the experience

sharp gale
primal rain
#

How long has this been a thing

frosty mango
#

But I could go for execute being rage spent based

#

You get an execute per rage spent

sharp gale
#

Im not, I don’t see execute as it is rn really fit prot, either lower the cost to be « execute costs as a revenge » or no cost at all / giving rage maybe weird since we have weak rage spender choices

#

In a sense it is either revenge or IP / this one being an issue for blizzard

#

me watching a Prot warrior with 22 lower ilvls from 4 months ago do more DPS than I can right now.
So I'm really bad at the game, huh.

#

I don't remember the last time I recorded DPS logs. How do people do that nowadays?

blazing ridge
#

You enable Advanced Combatlogging in WoW

#

type in /combatlog when you Login so you dont forget to turn it on

#

Need an Account on Warcraftlogs, download the client and there you can upload your logs after each session

#

If you are wondering why your dps is low, that one of more easier source to show you all the dumb buttons you are pressing

austere ginkgo
#

📝

#

Got it. I have to go to bed but I'l look at that later. Thank you. 🙇

blazing ridge
#

Except from that just one of the easier Rotation explainations here ist: Shield Slam > Revenge > Thunderclap, IP above 75 Rage, keep up Shieldblock and use everything else on CD.

austere ginkgo
#

I thought 60 was the threshold for dumping rage into IP

blazing ridge
#

60 is fine I guess, but maybe you are unlucky with 2 Revenege and no Shield Slam refresh, which might leave you starved especially on ST fights

#

I still have the habit of sometimes pressing IP too soon, nothing worse then watching your SS TC on CD and no Rage... This often happens when I probably use IP under 75 Rage. Better to press it late, its not that super important apart from a boss here and there.

#

Mainly to just dump Rage to get the next Violent Outburst

frosty mango
#

I personally set mine at 77

#

It’s unlikely you die if you don’t press it

#

I have a weakaura that just plays a sound when I hit 77 rage

#

I hear sound I press button

#

Simple, like a warrior should be

#

I made it a super annoying horn sound until I got good at it

austere ginkgo
#

Good to know

#

Rage is for damage

#

The best defense is swinging your shield repeatedly until everything is dead, that’s what I always say

blazing ridge
#

in my last priory 14 we went for double paladin pull, but somehow the Mage of the group didnt aggro and was standing there looking at me when I thought the next pack would be standing there already. Felt like shit

sharp merlin
#

I have a white bar on my rage bar which shows when to just hit it, it's free IP 😄

blazing ridge
#

Nice good idea, maybe I can change my ragebar to change appearance too good idea

autumn pawn
#

I once had a very competent tank compared to me tell me that taunting a mob will cause you to generate extra threat with damaging abilities while the taunt debuff is on the target.

He also said it works for aoe pulls in m+ as it affects more than just the target you use it on.

Can someone tell me if that is right as i can't find any information on it?

pallid quiver
#

I can't confirm the second part (unless you use AOE taunt), but taunt does have a hidden modifier to your threat generated

#

It's what makes taunt swaps actually smooth in raid is the main purpose

#

Since it ensures that, even if there's a DPS difference between tanks, that you will establish and maintain a threat lead over your co tank until it becomes time to taunt again. That's why it takes some hella cracked burst to pull off of you after taunting as long as you're pressing buttons

#

I think the modifer is only on the taunted enemy, but I don't know for sure, hence my first sentence

slender bison
#

Taunt matches you with the current threat pool of the old tank/player and gives you a small window of % threat gain above the 950% standard one. As long as you maintain DPS, the old tank can't pull it back without taunting. As with DPS, it can't pull your target unless it has like 10x your damage.

#

The default UI threat on a target 100% vs 999% doesn't explain this too well.

#

And since taunt is off GCD, there's no reason to not use it liberally. Especially in the 100-200% threat range

livid delta
#

Hello, getting the hang of prot warrior after first season tanking on VDH.

I'm looking at an ignore pain macro just so I'm not missing a GCD

#

Is it best with shield slam or revenge? With the feedback loop of resets idk which is best for ease

limpid anchor
#

You don’t spam ip on cd

livid delta
#

sorry ive written that wrong

limpid anchor
#

You mean main button ip which also casts ss?

livid delta
#

im using ignore pain to not cap rage only. but i was looking to add in a macro to use an ability with it as its off GCD

#

yes

#

as im using it to not cap rage, it feels right to macro in revenge as it can also reset shield slam

#

but im not sure thats the correct logic

limpid anchor
#

Just press 2 buttons at once, bcs you don’t want to use revenge during exec phase for example

livid delta
#

that was my other option 😄 just felt really odd to do

limpid anchor
#

Like if you want to pull and you press ip so you don’t die right
And use at the same time ss, you can’t tc
Which would be kinda bad

#

The convince scuffs you

slender bison
#

The only reason you do IP+SS macro is to snipe for SS when you catch it off CD. It's crucial to have maximum SS uptime.

#

It's always higher prio than TC

#

But you still keep the SS binding

limpid anchor
#

No it’s not always higher than tc

#

Bcs you got idiots blasting while you pull

drifting surge
#

I use naga and have SS on 3 and IP on 6 gladge

slender bison
#

Sure, when VO is up, you do TC when more than 3 targets. That's about it.

cyan bronze
#

think he just means to get an instance of threat on all mobs instead of ss a singular on gather

slender bison
#

This sounds like laboratory talk or Myth 7 keys. You do SS because your next Revenge might reset it

#

If you lose agro in 1 GCD, I don't know what to tell you about the group you've having

cyan bronze
#

me when my starfall from previous pull instant agros mobsclueless

cerulean tusk
#

If they die they die

#

not your issue

cyan bronze
#

if they die they die

#

still reduces chances of timing key

#

🤷‍♂️

cyan bronze
#

tc’ing early in a pull isn’t awful if the situation calls for it

limpid anchor
#

Their problem is your problem too

cerulean tusk
#

Their problem is theirs to solve

#

you got enough on your plate

limpid anchor
#

But your key .(

cyan bronze
#

even less of a bad thing with buffed fbv next tierokayge

#

perfect gameplay and timing keys don’t always align, you attempt to force them to as much as possible

cerulean tusk
#

You will be suprised how easy keys become completed, when you accept the mantra "Not my problem. If they die they die".

Healer or DPS run away with mobs, instead of towards you? If they die they die.

DH uses the hunt on pull? If they die they die.

Someone ninjapulls and dont drag them towards you? If they die they die.

Once you reach the level where the people learned that their life is worth nothing. You reached the level where they help solve any issue, and you dont create more trying to fix their mistakes.

cyan bronze
#

but for example, on aggressive enough chains with something like a boomie with starfall up from previous pull(not their fault), getting an immediate instance of threat on mobs is relatively important

cerulean tusk
cyan bronze
#

yes, they can run to you, but if they go bear(and triple their threat) and die to two melees or not go bear and die to one melee

#

there is shrimply nothing they can do there

#

🤷‍♂️

cerulean tusk
#

They should have used meld

cyan bronze
#

meld can be used for non threat things?

cerulean tusk
#

Any meld skip, you can just use catform instead

cyan bronze
#

me when i die from tank chaining and my starfall is up and he tells me to meld(i melded triple throw chair)

#

oh ok let me catform throw chair

cerulean tusk
#

Imagine dying to a chair

#

Build more versa and bear, ya fluffly pillow of uselessness

frosty mango
# cerulean tusk

Are you quoting me I feel like this is something I’ve said lol

cerulean tusk
#

Nah, this is just core tanking truth

cyan bronze
#

im p sure at high keys you will die through bear if no pws on throw chair

cerulean tusk
#

it speaks to the heart of any true tank

cyan bronze
#

yes, not all deaths are tanks fault

cerulean tusk
#

Ask for an external

#

No matter what, it aint the tanks fault

#

it is a you issue

frosty mango
#

Boomies dying to starfall during chain is very simple to fix, just stand on top of the tank

cerulean tusk
#

He argues he dies from melees if he runs to the oposite side, having tank in between himself and the mobs

#

Lets be honest, he just dont want to move

frosty mango
#

Although I will admit starfall could use some tweaking with regards to how long before threat is active

cyan bronze
#

ya they can go bear and exasperate the issue, or get one shot from melee, if tank is good he lives

cerulean tusk
#

If the mobs manage to walk past the tank, through the AoE fest, and is still on you

#

then the tank is doing something wrong

#

cause that aint happening

cyan bronze
#

yes, unfortunately if a singular melee hits you in boomie without a pws

#

you’re probably dead in a real key

cerulean tusk
#

Just dont be in melee range?

cyan bronze
#

or he can go bear and have tank threat mod

#

i am telling you i have witnessed countless boomies perish on brewmaster aldyr gather to a single starfall already or mushroom proc while dragging mobs across the tank

#

it is an issue, you can help alleviate🤷‍♂️

#

whether it’s your fault or not is largely irrelevant, tbh, it really isn’t

drifting surge
#

Rule #1
Always blame healer

Rule #2
DPS are also to blame

Rule #3
Follow tank

Rule #4
Prot warriors are the best

cyan bronze
#

ive had a boomie die through me supping him when im on my disc there

#

also worth noting that certain mobs, you have to have an instance of threat on when you pull, like how umbral rush(previously) worked, and how the chargers in eco dome work

frosty mango
#

On both players

#

If I have a boomy and we ass pull something I immediately intervene the boomy because I know everything is coming to them

#

But the boomy can also be aware of this and get to melee

cyan bronze
#

yes, it’s on both players

#

but absolving all blame is a bad gameplay habit when there are things you can do to alleviate it

#

regardless of if it’s your fault, you’re rarely in a situation where there’s genuinely nothing you can do, focusing on your own gameplay and playing better and not the misplays of others is more conducive to timing keys

cerulean tusk
#

If boomie doesnt use my zone of control to his advantage - I will grin down at their KFC looking ass on the ground

cyan bronze
#

and you’ll time less keys because of it🤷‍♂️

cerulean tusk
#

I aint running around, losing control on the rest of the pack, to save a chicken

#

Nah, I time more keys cause I no longer care

#

Ya be suprised how most PuGs react to "omg tank! this and that" and you answer with: "not my problem", suddenly they go "oh, maybe I should bring the mob I picked up towards the tank" - or even better "Maybe I wont press my CDs while tank still is gathering"

cyan bronze
#

if tc’ing early in a gather to prevent a previous starfall from killing your boomy causes you to lose control of the rest of the gather

cerulean tusk
#

Why wouldnt you clap while you gather?

#

I aint saying "dont do you job", I say dont overcompensate for others silly moves and actions.

#

If mr boomie got a starfall gathering things on himself, and doesnt move with me tho

#

fuck that chicken

cyan bronze
#

yes, and i simply said, if you need to tc earlier than you optimally would want to, to save your boomie, you should

slim dove
#

are you expecting the Boomie to cancelaura his starfall or something

cerulean tusk
cyan bronze
#

I don’t even think boomie can cancelaura it anymore

cerulean tusk
#

I am just gonna start copypasta my responses that already answer the question

cyan bronze
#

& standing on a tank is great, it’s not 100% effective

slim dove
#

Boomie isn't keeping up with you charging or leaping

cerulean tusk
cyan bronze
#

me when I randomly proc 3 mushrooms

slim dove
#

real

cyan bronze
#

and my tank expects me to keep up with him through shield charge 2x charge and leap

slim dove
cerulean tusk
frigid valley
cyan bronze
#

just wild charge 4 times bro

#

if you seriously think

cerulean tusk
#

I love the "it is nothing I could do, tank got to risk everything else" mindset of DPS players

cyan bronze
#

that teams in the mdi were having threat problems, and you are playing threat perfectly and nothing can be done to improve it

#

your mental is awful

frigid valley
#

eitherway, if i can make a boomkin die, il do it

#

dont think i wont

cerulean tusk
#

Understandable, chickens do have attitude

#

Chickens and DHs, both are two different kind of strong attitude players keks

#

I take a chicken over a DH every day of the week

cyan bronze
#

tbf, saying that there’s no responsibility for you when a dps dies of threat is a rather strong attitude

#

but do as you will

#

not my 15$

cerulean tusk
#

Not what we saying tho

cerulean tusk
#

what we say is that the boomie, should do his part or die

#

Rets usually pre-BoP, I dont hate em as much

cyan bronze
#

yes, you can control your own gameplay, you cannot control the boomies

cerulean tusk
#

Not my job to compensate for others

frigid valley
#

ive seen so many dumb tanks so i just stay mounted basically until gather is done

cerulean tusk
#

its their job to do their job

cyan bronze
#

it is your job to compensate for others

#

that’s what a team game is

#

👍

cerulean tusk
#

Not to the degree you tell it

#

I tank, cause others cant tank. It is not my job to botch a pull or plan, cause a boomie dont wanna catform run a bit

frigid valley
#

i dont even know what we're talking about, im just here to complain about moonkins

cerulean tusk
#

Trae, just argue you should heroic throw every single mob and establish threat the sec a starfall hits them. Doing one pack at a time - cause he dont wanna move smartly

#

Dont think I ever seen a boomie have problems using my zone of control tho

#

so meh?

#

It is a non-issue

ornate thicket
#

If you link route that really clears up what each pull looks like unless you as tank deviate from it. Helps your dps know how big the pulls are etc. If they blow their wad on a pack of 3 being looped into another then yikes

cerulean tusk
#

If the boomie uses it

tribal wharf
#

this is what happens after the boomie dies and someone calls him out on dying too much orwhatever

cerulean tusk
#

Tell him to stop dying

#

as its his fault

#

I also tell DHs that the hunt into a pack the same thing

tribal wharf
#

i LOVE that entire steamed hams meme

cerulean tusk
#

same thing to ret that pops final reck as I pull

tribal wharf
#

EGADS my roast is ruined!

cyan bronze
#

this doesn’t alleviate a starfall that’s already up from last pack ripping agro

#

or proccing mushrooms and ripping

#

🤷‍♂️

tribal wharf
#

thats if they have mdt installed, and a brain

#

and that assumes they then click on it and view it

cyan bronze
#

I mean, we saw boomies in mdi get folded by ripping agro

#

do we actually think there’s nothing you can do to play threat better

cerulean tusk
#

Mhm

#

and you know what?

cyan bronze
cerulean tusk

It still aint my problem

always has been

slim dove
frigid valley
#

like just do dmg while gather, just walking close to mobs they will rip aggro just by having a transmog

cerulean tusk
#

My creditscore critcake

#

Oh my

#

I gotta go

cyan bronze
#

PLEASE. Wait for my sunder. cancelaura your entire spec. Save meld for my misplays.

slim dove
#

oh no

#

payday loan kinda mf keks

cerulean tusk
#

I love how Trae tries to spin it

cyan bronze
#

I simply advocated to not focus on the misplays of others, but your gameplay

#

And that was somehow an attack on you

#

🤷‍♂️

cerulean tusk
#

Cause ya talking to me in this convo

frigid valley
cerulean tusk
#

Context is a thing 🕺

#

I just pray that ppl go away from this on my side, more than Trae - or the problem will just keep festering while the DPS keeps being apologist for their own failings

tribal wharf
#

I think being out of combat, and then you start combat, tank gets more aggro, dps gets DR, healer gets something similiar, for 5 or 10 seconds

#

is the solution

cerulean tusk
#

Problem here Yogi, is that DPS pull mobs before threat is established

#

not the threat mod per se

frigid valley
#

dont play with stupid ppl is easier solution

cerulean tusk
#

If they die they die

#

The stupid ones will simply disapear if you dont save them

tribal wharf
#

part of why i think dps die

#

is because, there is no buffer between monsters casting spells, they jsut spam the same thing over and over

cyan bronze
#

I mean

#

boomie can have a second of starfall from last pull up

#

and proc a mushroom

#

and wallah they have mass taunted

frigid valley
#

doesnt mushroom require 3 debuffs to proc?

tribal wharf
#

in doom for example, each monster on waking up, and doing certain actions, such as attacking, then often times has to take a certain amount of steps before it can again do its attack

cyan bronze
tribal wharf
#

so there is a lul of not being attacked, grace period

cyan bronze
#

& believe tierset does not

#

believe talent does

It’s too early for arguing

Nah, I am still in que

#

its a perfect time

solid sun
#

Cat I haven’t had coffee

cyan bronze
#

was the initial conversation

cerulean tusk
#

Nah

#

that was your statement way way later no?

#

This convo is about tank not having to overcompensate for others mistakes and silly behaviour

cyan bronze
#

nookayge

cerulean tusk
#

you defend it

tribal wharf
#

"bad tank cant hold aggro" transcends any wow raid

cerulean tusk
#

I disagree

cyan bronze
#

you can disagree

#

but the message history is there

cerulean tusk
#

Yep, cause I am correct

cyan bronze
tribal wharf
#

i've litterally had it happen to me in wrath

slim dove
cyan bronze
#

every player in every party is overcompensating for someone else

cerulean tusk
#

They shouldnt be

cyan bronze
#

yet it’s a problem when tank does it

cerulean tusk
#

100% not

cyan bronze
#

? it’s called being a team game?

cerulean tusk
#

A team doesnt force others to overcompensate, you compensate, you cower eachothers weaknesses and strengths in a balanced manner.

tribal wharf
#

on my rogue, on, it was noth for me

#

some garbage ass tank

#

couldnt hold aggro off me

cerulean tusk
#

The game is balanced around the trifecta after all

#

So ya make one part fail cause of your mistakes... well, it aint that parts problem. If DPS is being dumbdumb, let em die.

slim dove
#

tbf everyone is compensating for the healer okayge

frosty mango
#

Are we still talking about boomies

cyan bronze
#

yeah

cerulean tusk
#

Not really, never was the talking point

cyan bronze
#

tldr is wait for my sunders and cancelaura starfall

solid sun
#

If someone dies because they’re blasting off while I’m pulling that’s their fault and I’m not changing how I do stuff to compensate for people who just need to stop doing what they’re doing

cerulean tusk
#

He just uses his boomie example to try to steelman something

frosty mango
#

Well

#

Boomies are kinda unique

tribal wharf
#

so i've LITERALLY been the dps pulling aggro and tank cant get it back so ppl laughing at tank and they trying to tell him how he can do it better

frosty mango
#

Everyone else can just die tho

cyan bronze
#

because boomie is a meta spec and have the worst threat issues in the game atm?

cyan bronze
#

are we stupid?

cyan bronze
cerulean tusk
#

You really double and tripple down on the only branch you can hold unto, eh?

cyan bronze
#

idk I don’t ever see ele proc double mushrooms a second into gather

slim dove
#

I played Boomie to 3.4 and yes, the threat issues are kinda unique.

#

Press MF once and hear my tier proc twice and my talent proc

#

gg floor pov

frigid valley
cyan bronze
#

yea maybe

#

should of melded bro?

frigid valley
#

anyways, dont like boomkins then dont invite them. easy

slim dove
#

It's like if arms had a chance to randomly proc a demolish 3rd hit when they pressed overpower

cyan bronze
#

wait wdym it’s not up for tank threat misplay?!

cerulean tusk
#

You still salty that you can meld, fbm?

slim dove
#

meld is a dps CD for Boomie.

solid sun
#

So is the argument that the dps should just be blasting off while the tank gathers and the tank needs to figure it out?

frosty mango
#

Boomy just unique because starfall auto targets so you can’t stop it

cyan bronze
#

the argument is that in some cases it can’t really be boiled down to blasting off

frosty mango
#

But like herp deep divine storm

cyan bronze
#

like when you chain and have starfull up from last pull

cerulean tusk
#

That is the issue

cyan bronze
#

lmfao

cerulean tusk
#

We dont argue warrior should let them die, cause funny

#

even if it is

cyan bronze
#

you’re an idiot

cerulean tusk
#

Nah, you just keep arguing your line to the point where it already died of old age

slim dove
#

letting your dps die over some perceived notion of misplay is some low io behavior

cyan bronze
cerulean tusk
#

So boomies can stand away from the tank, pulling mobs away from the gather

#

cause that is just what boomies do

frosty mango
cerulean tusk
#

got ya

cyan bronze
cerulean tusk
frosty mango
#

I do let ret paladins die a lot if intervene is down when they’re behind me spamming wake of ashes and divine storm while I gather

cerulean tusk
#

well, midpull, not fight

cyan bronze
#

yes, but you wouldn’t take that level of responsibility

slim dove
cerulean tusk
#

What

cyan bronze
#

hence the issuekeks

cerulean tusk
#

And I dont see boomies die in 18s

#

what is the problem here?

slim dove
#

Statement wasn't about them dying actually

frosty mango
#

@undone beacon the boomies escaped the Druid discord can you please see them back

tribal wharf
#

i know what to do

#

just give every class mis direct

#

problem solved

#

Oh god not the boomkins

cerulean tusk

Yep, it is the boomkins

cyan bronze
cerulean tusk
#

Boomies that apparently dont suck?

tribal wharf
#

Are the boomies with us in the room right now?

cyan bronze
#

because I am absolutely seeing boomies eat melees at that key level and above

cerulean tusk
#

I am sorry you experience what you do

but sounds like a lot of it is on you

Don’t invite boomkins ever, ez. Phys god comp fr fr no cap

Waiter waiter more feral

If u need Druid dps

im most certainly not gathering enough threat when I see boomies die when I play disc

I stand by what I said

I invite boomkins specifically to kill them so they become disenfranchised with the spec and play something else

Apparently you dont have to kill them on purpose

it sounds like they die all the time just cause

#

and there is nothing they could do!

#

Oh poor chickens

If only they got to play the game

cyan bronze

btw, this all sparked because I mentioned maybe tc’ing early

anyways, imma go do a priory with 3 boomkins now!
Il let y'all know how many times i lost aggro and they died later

to have an instance of threat on them

but w/e

cerulean tusk

If the tank dont clap while things are gathered, that is a whole other discussion that what you been yapping about

where mushrooms explode and the whole instance come running

and no simple gathering threat gen can stop it

they just come barreling down

cerulean tusk

and boomie cant be in melee

cause you know

cyan bronze

yes, because when you don’t, things like that become visible, and your teammates die

Daddy want chicken to be safe in the coup

frosty mango
#

Right now I want

Pwar/mw/feral/rogue/hunter

or

brew/rsham/ww/feral/hunter

cerulean tusk
#

You need a warrior in there bro

#

5% AP

#

swap hunter for arms

frosty mango
#

Too many melee

#

Not worth

cerulean tusk
#

Nah, no way you take the 5% AP hit

#

skip the feral instead, bring in arms

frosty mango
#

100% I’d trade it for a bres

cerulean tusk
#

Pftz, jumpercables fool

frosty mango
#

Feral also has funnel

cerulean tusk
#

Fair point, but 5% AP

frosty mango
#

I hate that phys buffs are so wide

#

Like Skyfury + bshout + mystic touch makes it hard to create an ideal phys group

cerulean tusk
#

Well, if you skip the warrior, Skyfury loses a lot of steam

frosty mango
#

Like ideally you’d want an Rsham with prot war bc Skyfury is huge but also it’s not amazing for the other melee

cerulean tusk
#

as you bring a hunter, ya dont need the hero either

cerulean tusk
#

get blueman out of there

frosty mango

Mistweaver just overall brings way more for phys comp

Plus it does way more damage

I play PTA

it sucks orbs in

frosty mango

Oh I play weapons of order

drifting surge

Or u can just use expel harm

#

Yeah you palm i spin

frosty mango
#

I fill with expel and palm

#

I’m also terrible at brew so

drifting surge
#

I hate WoO

#

Thats why i play PTA

frosty mango
#

I hate brew that’s why I play warrior

#

We are not the same

drifting surge
#

I like both

#

Brew I feel like a niimble drunkfu master that has lay on hands and warrior i feel like a TANK

frosty mango
#

Brew, like the other monk specs, has a lot of layered interactions which require me to think too much

#

I’m already big braining mistweaver

drifting surge
#

Brew pretty ez for me but probably cause i played it a lot

#

PTA makes it easier

#

Less thought

frosty mango
#

It doesn’t feel hard to be decent but optimization is a pain in the ass to squeeze solid dps

#

Whereas on warrior or druid or dk or dh I can do 2-3m dps on a raid boss and still effectively raid call

drifting surge
#

One thing i prefer brew to prot is the ability to save yourself with vivfy and expel where warrior I don't have that

cerulean tusk
#

Warrior just avoid being in that situation to begin with

#

Warrior dont need no saving

drifting surge
#

I survided PSF when healer died as prot, I felt like a god

frosty mango
#

Yeah if you’re needing saving as a warrior someone messed up.

Probably you but we still blame the healer

drifting surge
#

Rule #1
Always blame healer

Rule #2
DPS are also to blame

Rule #3
Follow tank

Rule #4
Prot warriors are the best

frosty mango
#

You need to put rule number 4 at slot 1

cerulean tusk
#

#4 is not needed to be stated, it is a law of nature, not a manmade concept and as such is not required to be stated in your silly little list

drifting surge
#

Rule #1
Always blame healer

Rule #2
DPS are also to blame

Rule #3
Follow tank he carries

frosty mango

When I’m in the group number four is intuitive because I’m top dps

It’s ok little dps buddies, I’ll do your job for you too. Just follow me to epics

Yeah but unlike the revenge nerf it’ll be far more disastrous for my mental health

If dotc becomes viable as a m+ spec on druid I’d consider guardian for m+ seriously

Never had that happen with another class lol

Well after the key I asked him why his pet wasn’t showing up on details

Turns out it was on passive the whole time

#

I guess that’s a big deal

frosty mango
#

Oh man that reminds me of a good story

#

In df s2 we were in aberrus

#

And our tank had just swapped Hunter

#

He’s kinda geared and just perpetually doing sub tank dps and we’re sitting there on break and he’s lamenting it so I look at details and notice only one pet is doing damage

#

And I’m like “no shot he only has one pet”

#

so I ask him and he’s like “what do you mean yes my pet it out”

#

And I’m like no your other pet and he says “what other pet”

#

This dude raiding half a tier as bm with one pet

We actually clipped it and it’s in our soundboard because the incredulity in my voice was just

I was so floored

We still give him shit for it

#

Bear seems so not ideal for kezan

undone beacon
#

Honestly what DotC really does is exacerbate an issue bear already has, which is popping like a blister when initally pulling a pack. EC has an easier time with it because it doesnt rely on as much rolling buffs/debuffs for mitigation, but DotC is squishier until you get a ravage chain rolling

#

But once the chain is going, you go pretty giga, its sweet

solid sun
#

What

What does a ravage chain do

10% haste, 10% crit, 30% bleed damage, 10% DR, and a choice node between 35% auto attack speed or 8% agi + 20% extra ironfur armor

So do you hit an ironbark or whatever the 20%er is called and just pray for a ravage chain before the buff wears off

Important that it’s 45d cd because if you roll into a big pull with no ironfur you’re basically 4 legs and no armor

small steeple
#

twould be funny

frosty mango
#

No barkskin on a pull usually means dead Druid lol

undone beacon

Yeah, you gotta go into a pull with ironfur still up (or rage to immediately cast it), or barkskin

Sometimes I pop frenzied+beam asap but thats me being sloppy

Not the most experienced bear, but I usually use Lunar beam on cd, and then fill with barkskin, or rage

ignore pain causes you to shoot thorns out of your skin, dealing...

I just cba'd chasing parses this raid, because i was the lucky tank that did everything

And still beat ppl who just tank

But by my standards for myself my logs are dogshit

The trick is to just not play defensive stance the entire raid and then you normalize healers healing you

Then when you need to ignore pain you just pop on defensive stance and continue executing

normalize punishing healers for their sins

Not dying isn’t very hard, dpsing isn’t very hard, most of tank difficulty is just pacing and routing in keys which once your learn it doesn’t change

I think most healers are too lobotomized

#

Honestly

solid sun
#

To be more precise

#

like if you wanted to time all x level, queue time aside, i think you could be the worst player on healer

Albiet you’ll eventually be blacklisted on enough people’s mental lists

solid sun
#

You’re subjective

frosty mango
#

No u r

#

Peak warrior channel imo

solid sun
#

We are the warrior channel

#

but the flip side of tanking anxiety is also

#

if you are good at tanking

#

you know, and people will tell you

frosty mango
#

I don’t think any of the roles are hard but I do think people will be people and impose their own barriers

solid sun
#

Tank anxiety has very little to do with tanking and way more to do with other people imo

frosty mango
#

We are our own worst enemies

cyan bronze
#

Yeah i agree

cyan bronze
#

For me healing was very easy to learn and start timing 18s/19s because mentally it was the “easy role”

frosty mango
#

IMO healers have it the worst because most players can and do blame healers for their own shortcomings

#

If a tank is bad it’s immediately apparent

solid sun
#

When I tank I have an easy time doing it. When my friend tanks he has to lean on me the whole time and gets super nervous when I refuse to answer what he should pull

cyan bronze
#

I think for sure, if i was like, “wow, healing is so hard” it would not be

frosty mango
#

If a dps is bad it’s not always apparent

cyan bronze

#

A good healer can carry a bad dps pretty far

solid sun
#

But I can tank for my group and receive a ton of praise but then enter a pug and get flamed out of the key because I didn’t do the new Dorki route

cyan bronze
#

like usually for utility specs, it’s very easy to tell

#

last season a bad enhance or a bad mage, bad boomie historically is very easy to tell

#

but like aug?

that was so obsificated

#

however that word is spelled

DPS has the biggest skill range. I'm not talking about kicks, it's about awareness and output. I assume lots of tanks here noticed when the DPS was so good you felt like you were playing in another league. No deaths. Kicks. You pull more, they can take it.

First pull of priory double knights into miniboss, dps eats two traps and dies, I’m doing four million hps.

“Shit healer”

cyan bronze
#

knights are so fucking awful

#

to play

#

can we just talk about how fucking stupid those mobs are

solid sun
#

I never pull double knights because the risk isn’t worth it imo

cyan bronze
#

pulling knights at all

#

just walk by

frosty mango
#

last boss of rookery, warlock stands in Africa and dies to dot, you know instead of dispelling himself

“Shit healer”

slender bison
#

You never pull knights after 16s. But they're nerfed in S3, so maybe we will

cyan bronze
#

I don’t think you’ll pull bottom knights

slender bison
#

Depends if they change count

cyan bronze
#

the overlap with clap is so disgusting.

#

ok big damage please heal but don’t cast

#

ok now there is big damage next tick

frosty mango
#

It’s fine if people use defensives but most of the time they don’t

cyan bronze

so tilting
