Does anyone know of a guide or simple list of best times to look to use Rallying Cry in the raid?

high latch
#

The correct thing to do is talk it out with your healers. Else I just send it whenever I know big AoE is incoming.

Don't wear gear

This is also true, transmog is very important.

You gotta look good to be good.

You ever go to the store and see a car with flame stickers? You just know that baby is fast. Same premise.

solid sun
#

So true

#

I roll into a 17 and the healer has a shit mog I just kick them. If you can’t put some effort into your looks how can I expect you to put effort into keeping me alive

Exactly

#

Jakey do you have a tmog mount

high latch
#

Now that we've rated UIs we should rate mogs

#

Or do you save gold by letting everyone around you mount up instead

jagged pier
#

i have a tmog mount and a ah mount

The OG ah mount or the new one

#

how many Jakeys out of 10 do I get on mog

#

i framed the 7/10 UI

jagged pier
#

its a mog of all time

thats for sure

but u might as well get tmog roulette if u guuna do that

Yep

That tracks

:)

#

You understand the importance of striking fear into your enemies

round pendant
#

no it's just impossible to make a decent transmog because every single colour has 1 bajillion different shades and nothing matches

#

but sure

solid sun
#

So all the tmogs in the tmog section aren’t decent

I had a tbc mog

#

they should re-do all the models in the game and set them up to support dyeing

#

then add dyes

frosty mango
#

That would cost us like an entire expansion

jagged pier
#

its coming for housing u can dye furniture at least, well the new model. they are appretnly working on the old models

#

i doubt it comes too armour

#

as u get colour variances

undone beacon
#

Over twenty years of armor to make compatible with dyes, I don’t think it’s ever going to be a feature lol

#

Simply don’t transmog your gear and just wear what you have, easy

frosty mango
#

Spoken like a Druid

#

“Who needs mog I got a sick bear form”

#

Can any healer do dawnbreaker above 15?

round pendant
#

It just has little return on investment ig

frosty mango
#

I swear they are all incapable of healing the first boss

round pendant
#

since it's just making the game better rather than a feature that will sell more subscriptions

#

most people just either don't mog or mog tier sets

neon elk
#

Dawn is so much easier if you have dps that can stop dmg for better phases . If u have issues surviving between intermisions thats another story

frosty mango
#

Every one I run over 15 is immediate brick

#

Every healer just falls apart on the debuff dispel

#

Like even before the key this one shaman was playing healing stream and I was like “hey man, prob need to run cloudburst” and he’s like na

#

Sure enough he can’t heal the debuff off

#

Is there a bug or something with Tome, or trinkets in general, dropping in Priory? I'm about to do run #53 and still no Tome. I've not even seen a Signet drop.

jagged pier
#

nope

deep iris
#

My loot spec is Prot, so no issues there.

jagged pier
#

thats how rng loot from m+ works

high latch
deep iris
#

Okay, just making sure I didn't miss something and I'm bashing my face against this dungeon for nothing.

high latch
#

Nah, you're just unlucky like the rest of us

jagged pier
#

i would suggest not doing that

#

it will just burn u out

deep iris
#

Oh I'm taking breaks and playing an alt. I've got warrior to 3k and shaman to 2500 trying to get the Tome.

warm plinth
#

I got it in 3 runs and haven't seen it drop since

high latch
#

It's much rarer to see Tome drop than Signet because Tome only drops for tank specs. But getting them yourself is 50/50.

zinc peak
high latch
#

The silverlining with a trinket like Sacbrood is that as the season goes on it gets more and more likely the other people in your party can give theirs away. For Tome you're on your own.

zinc peak
high latch
#

Kinda wish they had a system where you got 1 dungeon-specific currency each time you do it and can buy any of its items for 20 or something.

#

But I guess that's kinda what dinars are meant to do as well.

zinc peak
#

yeah after 20 attempts or something can just purchase the item you so desperately need

high latch
#

Would be nice. At that point you statistically should have gotten it, so it kinda gets old at that point.

zinc peak
#

I liked the combination of the pacemaker and sacbrood though, it feels nice. i know tome is S ranked trinket but it seems like the haste and str gain works good with warrior. Am I terribly off and should focus more on tome or is it a depending on play feel kinda thing? just getting back into tanking after several years of break

high latch
#

I would say Tome is clearly better, but Sacbrood is still good. But what Tome does incredibly well is ST/prio damage, so it depends how you value that.

#

What a lot of people do, however, is drop Tome for Brand. So you run Brand + Pacemaker or Brand + Antenna.

zinc peak
#

awesome thank you 😄

#

do we still Shield Slam if we're at 100 Rage in AOE ?

#

bloodmallet says Idol does the most damage, but i dont know how would the interaction between that and avatar works

high latch
#

It does a lot of damage, but be careful as the channeling stops you from blocking and parrying and stuff. So you probably wanna Shockwave first.

dry skiff
#

i meant the Cooldown wise

high latch
#

I have no idea how it interacts with Avatar. Just wanted to put that warning out there because not everyone knows.

#

And you do 0 damage if you die.

jagged pier
#

it doesnt

#

avatar doesnt increase trinket damage

the damage u do with the crit it gives u will be effected tho

There must be a language barrier because that is not what i meant. im asking how do we use idol when the cooldown is different from avatar's

jagged pier
#

on cooldown

undone beacon
#

You just... use it

jagged pier
#

if choose not to cast it when its up

#

then your loosing value of the trinket

#

and probably future casts down the line

mellow bridge
#

you can just line it with roar or spear depending on what you play

#

and if avatar/ds naturally line up, then great

#

you shouldnt sit on either CD for long to try and sync em up

I’m not really understanding how avatar and idol are related at all

I just had someone in a Streets tell me afterwards that it is generally expected that the tank pings which portals to take? Has that been y'alls experience? I always just kind of assumed that peopel can figure the portals out themselves

Lmao

jagged pier
#

just dont take protals

solid sun
#

This is my new favorite question

#

I agree with Dan

high latch
#

It happens that people don't follow me and they get some awkward downtime, so maybe I should ping, but it's rarely an issue.

solid sun
#

My expectation is people will follow me. I also don’t really care if they don’t

#

Half the time when I try to ping a specific thing I end up pinging myself or something I’m fighting instead

zinc peak

#

I mean it’s pretty easy to cleave off the boss right

Spent all expansion as a blood dk and just AMS'd and Death's advanced all his mechanics. I'm getting exposed bad

high latch
#

You probably know already, but don't sit on Spell Reflect too much. That -25% magic damage taken is masive.

undone beacon
#

Just sit with your back to the console, Spell Reflect the dot, and leap to the enterance for sparks

#

90% of the time just going to the other end of the room results in your spark getting watered

azure crag
#

YOU CAN SPELL REFLECT THE DOT?!
Like, the one from the tank buster?!

shrewd grove
#

I don't think so. But it reduces the damage you take by 25% still

azure crag
#

Oh, fair enough

undone beacon
#

It doesnt reflect it but its a 25% magic DR every 20 seconds lol

high latch
#

Yeah, it doesn't reflect. Only reduces damage.

lime mantle
#

Way to rain on our parade...

undone beacon
#

So you'll have it up for each buster dot

high latch
#

If it still trucks you you can run Hunker Down for another 10% reduction.

#

OR you run spellbreaker like a chad

high latch
#

True. Just get lucky.

Always reflect it, right?

shrewd grove

I mean, nothing else in that fight hurts at all. Just Shield Wall it too 😛

That's what I do. Both wall and SR.

I go with whatever the pug-friendly pull is on google

high latch

There are multiple of those of varying quality

Sounds low in general, but depends on the dungeon and route.

mellow yoke

we had like 6 deaths to casts

Is there a more pug friendly version of this pull

Every time I've pulled this, it's just been a wipefest.

I do this

Has been super solid

ruby musk

Yeah that looks better

high latch
#

Lust pull 2, ofc.

ruby musk
#

Gives space for people to move because somehow dodging beams is hard

high latch
#

They can actually be hard to dodge. It's random if they spawn on ranged players or melee, so you gotta pay attention and reposition.

#

If you mean the spinning beams.

No I mean the straight lines

166% without ED iirc

maybe that was with bolster too idk

timid valley
#

how many should i go that is considered enough for m+ ?

high latch
#

Practically speaking that is about as much as you can get.

#

If you have less than that you want to swap ITF to HR. Then you have 100% uptime easily.

timid valley
#

alright thanks for the help

smoky robin
#

How much haste before swaping to other stats

high latch
#

With ITF it's typically not recommended to go much higher than 25k. I've heard 27k, but I only recommend up to 25k myself.
When you have enough haste to keep decent Shield Block uptime you just sim yourself to see what you wanna focus more on.

smoky robin
#

sry what is ITF

high latch
#

Into the Fray, a talent that increases haste based on how many mobs and players are around you.

I assume there's a thing where a DCd player will get kicked after a while, but that's probably like 5-10min. Assuming such a thing even exists.

random thought

#

during the last boss of priory of the flame, is there any way to jump from the low ground to the higher ground?

#

like the portal warlocks can place

high latch

Yes, you can leap and warlock gate, but it's very precise

I don't bother with it and just leap to the top of the middle stairs.

Cus you lose more time than you gain if you mess it up.

fathom oasis

do you have any clip at hand?

strong forum
#

you leap ontop of the fence

Just clear it in a follower dungeon or wait until you've done another Priory key then stay behind and practice. You'll figure it out.

But it only saves you 2-3 seconds.

but even then

fathom oasis
#

what i HAVE noticed is that between a SS press and the rage showing as going up, it take like 200ms or so?

lusty grotto
#

it shouldn't result in feeling like a "cast bar"

i think it's only visual however

#

because if I SS+IP insta at max rage, that SS does not generate any rage

lusty grotto

idk about default ui, but i havent seen that in any WA

do you add up the world ping and home ping? Or just use your home ping?

same with thunderclap/thunderblast

In my case both are identical.

unless you live in OCE and are playing in NA servers

Oh wow, default spell queue window is 400

which isnt bad

#

to combat lag, it helps you not miss a gcd

high latch
#

For slow classes I'm sure that's pretty nice actually

strong forum
#

but if you dont spam fast enough it can queue the wrong spell

high latch
#

Or casters.

and casting revenge instead of SS is quite costly long term

Hmmm....I do play DB blood, and that class is quite slow
especially compared to prot warrior

almost everything is slow compared to pwar

shouldnt matter tbh

It is very interesting.
I'd describe blood dk gameplay as like....spinning plates. And letting any of those plates fall kills you.

Prot warrior feels more like trying to empty the water out of a boat that has several holes in it so you don't drown in RAGE.

DK requires me thinking several steps ahead so I don't fuck up.
Prot warrior is just constant bedlam. Managed chaos. I'm not thinking, I'm reacting to the pretty buttons that light up while trying to stop the red bar from maxing out

there's a tiny tiny delay between the button press and the increased rage showing up

Idk, I think the amount of extra “planning” required for blood DK is highly exaggerated.

I think it’s a bit of an illusion, because your health yo-yo’s so much and you get to see a uh number on the healing meter, it feels like you’re doing a lot more.

Prot warr is definitely on the easier side for tanks, but defensively all of the tank specs are pretty close IMO (and brew has a lot more to manage offensively).

You get so much runic power, you just hit death strike when you have enough RP. Which you are constantly generating because you need to spend runes. But you gotta make sure you keep your bone shields up and spend exterminate stacks when you get them. And pop dancing rune weapon on CD. And make sure you're standing in death and decay, so when you use bonestorm and tombstone, they do maximum damage. But don't use them if you won't get max value out of the CDR for dancing rune weapon. And don't forget about your blood boil charges.

And this list just goes on and on and on

That’s just a tuning thing though, and isn’t inherent to the classes. In shadowlands it was the opposite where you needed to play pretty tight to keep SB up and if it ever fell off you just got flattened. And blood DK was invincible in shadowlands S3 and S4

its just that they dumbed pwar down every patch

more and more

#

Prot doesn't feel like a plate spinner to me, tho. At least not this patch.
It feels like a game of whack-a-mole

strong forum

the plate spinner shows in terms of damage output

#

not in minimum requirement to be tanky

azure crag

A very fun game of whack-a-mole
But I am I not planning anything out beyond my CDs

just playing the spec as it comes to me with all its procs

ye thats thane for ya

# lusty grotto youre describing s1

Yeah, I was thinking s1 + s2, I know pwarr was significantly worse than BDK and prot pal in S3/S4 shadowlands but prot warr wasn’t as intense then

strong forum
#

hence why i dont like thane

#

colossus way more fun

lusty grotto
#

in those seasons

#

thats just community perception

#

we had banner

strong forum
#

pwar was 2nd best tank in s3 and s4, but 10x harder than anyone else

lusty grotto
strong forum
#

and bdk was just insanely overtuned

full mist
#

But the broad point is that how punishing a tank spec is when messing up defensives is more a function of current tubing rather than a spec being inherently more forgiving than another.

strong forum
#

depends on forgiving, bdk gets fucked up by everyday hits, pwar gets fucked up if you dont use a defensive on X mechanic and then needs the healer to pick up the slack otherwise you just die straight up

lusty grotto
#

regardless i understand what they are going for, im just clarifying the state of this class during SL

strong forum
#

bdk has more leeway vs mechanics as 1 deathstrike takes care of it again like nothing happened

lusty grotto
#

not to mention AMS negates a lot of mechanics

#

and SR keeps getting punished

azure crag
#

Indeed.
As long as you survive a hit as blood, you're fine and can take care of yourself.
But it's also why maintaining lots of runic power is so important and not wasting it is vital.

For prot, I've found as long as I have shield block up, I'm good for 90% of situations. And we have spell reflect, shield wall, even last stand and victory rush in a pinch.

I have noticed though that its far harder to survive if my healer goes down, tho. As blood, I don't even notice. As prot, all those tiny hits start adding up.

lusty grotto
#

that being said, i dont think blizzard's current philosphy is to make tanks so punishing

#

and thats probably not going to change

#

if only they realized the other important part that they seem to be missing: tanks like to do damage

azure crag
#

^THIS.

#

Yes, I do like feeling like an invincible wall of iron. But I would also like to deal a reasonable amount of damage. Not even an insane amount, just...you know, if I hit a button, I'd like to see the health bars of my foes move.

#

And not struggle with aggro cause this ret paladin just blew his entire load on the pack the instant we engaged.

For prot, I've found as long as I have shield block up, I'm good for 90% of situations. And we have spell reflect, shield wall, even last stand and victory rush in a pinch.

the only problem with this statement is that these are proactive measures, not reactive (also why is LS there, its garbage)

"in a pinch" does not apply

you do them before damage comes in

By top people you mean yoda and Kira?

yes

because they fine tune for infinite scaling

cinder marsh
#

so what build should i go for?

lusty grotto
#

wowhead's vault key build

#

and then swap in certain talents as you meet damage checks

strong forum
#

Several weird choices going in their builds

mellow yoke
#

the main idea of getting ravager is to generate rage

#

Instead of that they go more execute talents for Prio and ST damage

gleaming canyon
#

Loving prot this season in m+. The aoe interrupt feels like i bring actually useful utility and feel so tanky, barely even need shield wall in a 14 i did

neon elk
#

Anybody else not having best time trying to keep first arakara boss for dps to cleave ?

gleaming canyon
#

You can just heroic leap right next to where they will be, but yea ive had people freak with those, maybe not used to the new spiders

neon elk
#

Ive literaly had a pala demand me to stand close so he can cleave and then he decided to stay in middle of boss and was shocked when he ate them..

gleaming canyon
#

Yea thats exactly what i mean lol

neon elk
#

Like at that point im thinking about just standing like 10meters away and watch dps suffer

gleaming canyon
#

Its for such marginal cleave gain, but i think people will get better at it

chrome falcon
#

just tell them before run that the spiders don't do damage anymore and they can just tank them

chrome falcon
#

its a lot of damage

neon elk
#

Its a lot of gain for nothing but i feel like thats recently my highest reason for bricked key , like people either dont know how they work or dont care/ brain lag

pine lotus
#

How much more dmg is the execute build vs the push build

mellow yoke
#

so, spiders go to the boss

#

and u have to move the boss

#

which kinda fucks up the cleave

neon elk
#

Yea and then people dont focus on adds hard enough he starts to chanel puddles and its gg cuz add gets eaten

lusty grotto
#

uhh

#

adds dont get eaten unless the people fixated go into her hitbox

#

or through it

#

thats on them

#

not on tanks

#

you can easily maintain funnel through baits

neon elk
#

Thats exactly my issue

mellow yoke
#

get into her hitbox

#

she eats them

mellow yoke
#

he should stay

#

behind where the adds have spawned

#

so that adds do not move in the direction of the boss

#

that's on them

#

and trust me, even people in 16s do not know

#

how to do this properly

neon elk
#

Yea had people in 15 rage just to realize they dont know how it works

#

But its so weird , i either get flamed for not doing it or they brick key xd

lusty grotto
#

no need to ackchually me

#

reading comprehension

mellow yoke
#

the way you articulated it

lusty grotto
#

what could possibly cause the spiders to go into her hit box??

#

youre not moving the spider into them

#

if you are, youre inting

mellow yoke
#

sounded like you meant that if players fixated are in her hitbox makes the boss eat the spiders

lusty grotto
#

yes im addressing the root cause

#

i dont patronize people thinking they dont know mechanics

#

Lommatik has been here for a while

neon elk
#

Dw i understood what u meant

boreal heath
#

Why is execute @ 6T a higher prio than execute at 3T. When it's capped at 3 w/ the talent shouldn't it be the same damage regardless?

neon elk
#

Just wanted to vent and see how others are dealing with it

lusty grotto
#

youre reading it wrong

#

and the reason why there's a target number is because it just hits harder than any other spender

#

even if its capped at 3

#

anything over 6t, you revenge

#

does that make sense?

pallid quiver
#

also because if you're looking at the wowhead guide, you'd never hit the 3 or fewer targets priority option for execute because of the higher prio execute; it's mostly there if you don't have AOE execute

#

Nome could make it so execute disappears when you have heavy handed selected, but it's probably not a major concern or issue

strong forum
#

Can't make exclusion prompts sadly

pallid quiver
#

that's whack

strong forum
#

Yeah

pallid quiver
#

well, there's the ultimate answer

strong forum
#

And yeh the answer is simply, 3t execute Hits harder than almost all abilities would do on 6

#

Like, a 5t revenge hits for like 1.5mil combined for example, but the 3t execute Hits for 4.5mil combined

#

It hits ungodly hard

heavy sparrow
#

Wowzers

boreal heath
boreal heath
strong forum
pallid quiver
#

technically, with how it's written and placed, it's higher prio than anything, since there's no minimum target value

#

well, anything not CDs or resets or rage management

#

so like base rotation stuff

#

Since it comes before Shield Slam, outburst spends, or even clap being pressed, and you press it on "up to 6 targets", which doesn't say to not use it that high in ST

boreal heath
lusty grotto
#

yes its rage dependant after all

pallid quiver
#

there's no rage mention for that execute line, technically

lusty grotto
#

its a spender

pallid quiver
#

it is simply press it on up to 6 targets

#

In reality, yeah, it's used to manage rage

boreal heath
pallid quiver
#

oh yeah Colo has different focuses, since it also doesn't buff execute as much/generates less rage

boreal heath
#

Which is what was confusing me a bit as to why revenge is better between 50-60 rage specifically

pallid quiver
#

Rage gen and pacing; you don't want any globals dead

#

And if you press execute at 50 rage, for example, it'd consume 40 of that 50

#

and then if it doesn't reset shield slam, you're screwed on that global unless you happen to have TC available or something

strong forum
#

After the cast

frosty mango
pallid quiver
boreal heath
pallid quiver
#

how much rage you have

#

It'll spend 20-40 rage

#

If you have less than 40, it'll spend all of it

#

If you have more than 40, it costs 40 rage

boreal heath
#

I assume then since the rage condition isn't up for MT that MT rage gen is just large enough to ignore the amount of rage you send execute at?

pallid quiver
#

There's a few things that go into it; for example, you also can spend outburst on Thunder Blast as a valid option. As Colo, sending outburst on Thunder Clap is very sad times

#

So the rage you spend goes into outburst fueling, whether it's Blast or Shield Slam

#

Thane also has hero talents that increase the damage of execute, off the top of my head

#

And you also are just sitting on more potential globals, since you have procs that do things like give you 3 shield slams with no real CD, back to back

boreal heath
#

Can you check for missed ss resets on a log?

obtuse venture

hi just have a quick question. how much rage loss would it be if dropping bloodsurge for whirling blades in m+?

alpine lotus
#

You don't take whirling blades?

obtuse venture
#

ive tried doing target dummy tests but my details doesnt record rage generation for some reason

alpine lotus

I just thought maybe whirling blades might give some extra dmg and still generate some rage but i dunno how much less it is than bloodsurge

alpine lotus

Most poeple take both talents I believe

hmm ok. thanks for that.

i wish details worked tho

Did I break a rule?

lusty grotto

no, we just have guides specifically for that reason, no need to link aggregate sites that we dont support

That site is less of a guide and more like aggregate data from the top 50 Prot warriors based on score.

lusty grotto

we're well aware

#

thats why i said what i said

full mist
#

But on that note, what is the best way to see how much rage blood surge is generating? I couldn’t find its RPPM and I’m assuming the rage generation isn’t linearly increasing with target count similar to DK’s frost fever

mellow bridge
#

If you just want the total rage generated by it, you can check a log

lusty grotto
#

its normalized

#

its not as big as whirling

#

and does not increase with target count

lusty grotto
#

at least not substantially

The /abandon vote has been a great addition, in my opinion, but there needs to be a way for the people who ignore the vote to face some sort of consequences

overall its a win, imo

there will always be a consequence

fathom oasis

I don't know how it could be done without allowing other people to abuse it and threaten legit players that simply have a bad day

But some system that detects (maybe vote based?) that you are ignoring the outcome of the /abandon vote, and marks you as a leaver in the finder, much like if you have left the key

I think the consensus is that it's simply better to stack whatever stat you need and not worry about the 0.15% crit effect

but bear basically just spams IF from what i know

#

we dont do that

pearl zinc
#

So like it’s the last one I’m priority or when u need

jagged pier
#

yes u press IP alot

pearl zinc
#

Ah I see

jagged pier
#

but just not all the time

#

a lot of ppl atm have a tendancy to over spend on IP

#

its not the biggest issue, but it can turn into an issue

pearl zinc
#

Oh

#

Okay I think I get it now

#

Ty fren

#

Now I gotta bother xeph if he has a prot warrior weakaura

#

If not I gotta make my own sound system

viscid lantern
#

i use it when above 70 rage or when i wait for a tank buster/ heavy magic dmg etc etc. Like an extra safety

pastel geyser
jagged pier
#

you basically only press IP if you are at like 70+ rage, because then u have 30 for SB when u need it

pastel geyser
#

then just check the gameplay if enough reports were given

#

like ive barely had leavers/trollers in m+ this season but goddamn the ones that did surely made it sure it was the worst experience ever for everyone

pastel geyser
#

true gms arent a thing anymore

#

unfortunate

fathom oasis
#

In the end, even if you actually abandon the key, the punishment is kinda silly

#

You get tagged as a leaver for a little while

#

I don't see why we couldnt just have a vote system for people that intentionally grief a key

pastel geyser
#

true

#

atleast whenever i see a guy with leaver tag i make sure to never inv them lol

#

tbh id go as far as invite them and kick them as we are starting the key

cerulean tusk
#

If all 4 players send in a report for boosting/deranking on a grinder, they get removed from the group btw okayge

pastel geyser
#

really?

fathom oasis
#

Wut

pastel geyser
#

wdym a grinder tho

cerulean tusk
#

Seems to be how it works, grief er is not a word

fathom oasis
#

We all reported this one dude yesterday and it did nothing

fathom oasis
#

Only options to report are inappropriate name or communication, too

pearl zinc
#

Alrighty

#

Cause like I’m torn between fdk and prot warrior but on god, I miss playing my panda warrior

pastel geyser
#

why not both, ones a dps that requires 5iq to play and the other ones is a fun tank

cerulean tusk
#

When I get the AFK/offline guy, I just started to ask everyone to report. When we do they disappear out of the group

fathom oasis
#

They might be leaving on their own?

cerulean tusk
#

If we don't, they remain forever

fathom oasis
#

Idk

cerulean tusk
#

If I had to guess, there is some sort of tag in the system when you go offline. But it doesn't want to punish ppl outright. So it waits for the little extra

pearl zinc
pastel geyser
#

le what now

pastel geyser
cerulean tusk
#

Pretty normal

pastel geyser
#

do they get leaver or not

pearl zinc
pastel geyser
#

i mean who said to do that

cerulean tusk
#

Also, if you play on EU, Kazzak server seems unstable. Every key with one from there, no matter how good/bad they perform, they just randomly go offline for 5 min

pearl zinc
#

Ew leveling up a alt normally

cerulean tusk
pearl zinc
#

Lemix you get cool transmogs

pastel geyser
#

super toxic

#

my first 'griefed' key was done by a tank+heal ruski combo we invited

cerulean tusk
#

I got the opposite, they are the ones who invite me and are just chill

pastel geyser
#

cuz i didnt do comparable dps to a destro lock in the 30 murloc pull as a fury lock in gambit

#

like.. bro

#

idk ive always had bad experiences with them since legion

cerulean tusk
#

Think you prob just got a mental sore spot for it, so are hyper aware when it happens. Brain do love making patterns and reinforcing it's belief in em

lunar flare
cerulean tusk
#

To me it seems more like a technical issue of sorts. As they do come back and say sorry. It doesn't matter how they perform or behave, it just happens

torpid dome
#

On P3 dimensius, how do you guys deal with the pull ropes on the active tank? Tank swap immediately on it, and then have the tank with the ropes heroic leap to the edge of the arena to make sure that the DPS have an as good as possible angle line of sight to work with?

dry skiff
#

i never really thought about it until now, is there a buff that we need to react to ?

#

not when cooldowns get reset. like a buff that changes rotation

jagged pier
#

yer tier set buff and, violent outburst

dry skiff
#

tier set how, we gain tunder blast proc. what's so special

torpid dome
#

Big damage

dry skiff
#

i know but i already do Thunder blast > shield slam on highest priority. how does the buff change it

jagged pier
#

Thats not correct and the tier set increases the damage of the next TB by 100%, which changes the prio

#

SS always unless TB has 2 charges

#

if it has 1 u still prio ss over it

#

then the rotation changes depending on target count

#

and violent outburst

dry skiff
#

does this charge come with 4p ? because i still dont have it and i have no idea about any charge

jagged pier
#

no u can hold up to 2 charges TB

#

always been that way

dry skiff
#

aaaa, i thought it was like 2 charges cooldown
