it does target the tank sometimes
yup it does
It is so fkn annoying
but it does now
not hard to manage tho
fkn sucks if it hit the fountain
Wait I thought it went through the fountain
Is that why sometimes we just get boomed ๐
so at 711 ilvl, hero sac hero pace 4 piece, crafted belt neck and shield.... would you be setting loot spec in vault for prot or dps...
brand is way lower than tome even in aoe on sims, myth tome vs brand... which is best?
hey team, in my vault i got myth tier shoulders i already have heroic 710 shoulders, i also got the dimensius tank trinket
was thinking going the dimensius trinket, is it actually any good?
Whats your wep
Also you most definitely want
Myth shield
Are you simming 5 minutes
does that effect it drastically i think i was on 4 minutes
Brand needs a 5 minute sim. If Iโm being honest, I probably want both myth tome and brand in my trinket slots, unless I need to trade one out for a defensive trinket
Are you comparing them with hero track brand? Myth track?
how much value does a shield actually have vs crafted
Itโs our most important item for defensive value
at what haste amount switch itf talent again? sry forgot
does this mean i interrupted 35 times and 42 is the times i overlapped?
i think im in pug hell ๐
@lusty grotto is it 21k haste exactly to go to ITF or is that a rounded number?
i still use the shield i like it more cuz i feel like on execute phase i can go all the way to 20 seconds on shield block and just perma cast execute / shield slam / tb
rounded, it depends on how well you can manage SB
21k might not be good for people that cannot manage it
or that are new
what if ur good at mangement
then 21k is fine
do i take myth belt cursed stone idol or haste mastery ring ๐
man my war is getting a rough luck streak lol. gonna be socket again this week and I don't even have an item to put a socket in!
Yeah but I socketed those last week with last week's vault XD
omg i feel so bad for you then ๐
er, well, I socketed a crafted belt*, but the hero bracers I have are also socketed. Probably use the socket on crafted wrists with next craft though
still x2 socket early in the season sucks
yeah it's not ideal lol
Though at least my war is a good ilevel (almost 712). What feels really bad is my 680something rogue getting the same piece twice in a row
Got myth chest last week which was awesome, then this week got the exact same myth chest
RNG be RNGing
Did the tome sim apl get removed or am I stupid? I can't seem to find it
It's not needed anymore
Cool, thanks!
Should I be binding my potion on with Tome or should it be a separate binding? also when should i generally send the potion?
battle pot? with lust and on CD
don't bind it with tome as that's fairly randomly inconsistently pressed depending on pull sizes and etc
i see
I bind health pot and hearthstone but technically that isn't best to do
35 kicks out of 42 possible
guessing you have myth pants already?
yerp
holy christ
I got scammed
you 3 chested that one, hahahaha
That was a good one

I heard a good joke today
dh in my guild got 4x gloves
When you die, do you know what part of the body lasts the longest?
Your pupils. They dilate.
i know he's glad he took the time to fill his vault
Do I need to open vault in a DPS spec for a chance at astral antenna?
yup
Yeah I just doubled check in dungeon journal, it drops for tanks as well. Thanks!
Hello, I did an HOA +16 as prot war, the route was clean, chaining big pulls, everything was fine but I finished at 4,8M overall
There was a big wipe, so you could say 5M
I just don't understand why I have 1,5M DPS less (should finish around 6,5M)
I compared my run with logs of someone who did 6,5M, same ilvl, same stats and route but it's mainly due to thunder blast gap of damage
We literally have the same number of casts, but he has almost 2billions more dmg than me which make him end up +1,5M dps more, does anyone know what's the issue please ?
better reflects?
Nono it is only thunder blast dmg that make the main difference
Can you share the log?
I would love to but my run is not log, have only detail xd
Ah
I thought there was something obvious with thunder blast I was not doing
How is it possible to have same number of cast but almost twice more dmg
Could it be a different in secondary stats? It sound silly for that big of a difference, but who knows
I demolarizing shout on cd on all mobs, same with avatar
Nope we ironically have very close stats haha
and same ilvl
better gaming chair?
I bet
Idk, can speculate but without log it's impossible to say for sure. Do you track violent outburst and make sure to send it on TB?
Also, what was the comps in your groups? vs theirs
Good point, it's the only thing I don't do and that's what I thought, but I doubt it literally will make me do twice more dmg with thunder blast
sorry, cat
Idk about twice as much but it's going to be significant if you're sending all your outbursts on SS
I'll track it and see if it really changes a lot
thanks thanks I actually forgot about that
oh how do you see ?
Damage done tab, click the violent outburst icon in the source auras filter section. That'll filter damage done while you had the buff. Click it again (so you see red border) and that's your damage without the buff
Oh awesome, thanks for the tips !
Is the Mastery heavy haste belt not good to get over a crafted belt wwith haste crit?
do no warlock players know they have a bres
Sim it, but overall higher ilevel is more important than specific stats.
Yeah they literally just never bres
I take them for their bres
and they just never use it
simming is saying the heavy mastery haste belt at 723 is worse than the 701 delve belt
I mean, cantrip items are a different story. But the belt is getting nerfed next patch by a lot so it shouldn't really compete at that point.
uhh what do you have crafted currently
bracers, weapon, shield
over crafting a ring + 723 belt?
are your current rings good stats?
if the warlock brezzes the tank at the start of the key they wont ever use it to brez anyone and is 100% a red flag
soulstone, i mean
soulstone healer bro
Question. Where would more damage come from in higher keys as col? i believe its mostly the bleeds right so would haste make the bleed tick faster? or would crit=more damage
As colossus? Sim for multitarget to determine that. it takes more haste than you'd think in order to get an additional tick out of a bleed. you are probably thinking about it too much.
Hmm... my sim is showing I should craft a crit/verse neck but if I do that I'd bring my haste down to 20k (the haste/crit neck is showing half the dps gain).
I believe you can sim the neck with your talent swap to HR and see if it still outperforms
Sims are not going to care about the required haste for shield block uptime defensively
That's what the 21k number is
Sims just care what does the most damage
Is my belief correct
Well, there's basically a 0% chance that anything with HR outsims something else with ItF; ItF is vastly more damage than HR
Well okay math wizard
Oh wait, were you saying to sim both items with HR?
I was thinking
Sim the neck that takes you below 21k haste with HR vs. a sim with a different neck that keeps you above 21k haste combined with ITF
Oh, yeah the one with ItF will win regardless
HR is like 98% a defensive talent while ItF is mostly offensive
sims stop weighting haste after 20k rating
so you dont really pay attention to sims when it comes to haste
except if you're well past 21k
or around 27k
You know, I was thinking about this since we're talking about sims
I've just been telling people to sim brand at 5 minutes
But if your boss kill times are shorter than that, that's not particularly accurate yeah?
Yeah, I'm sitting at 24,288 + 1700 (So'leahs). So I can see why it would want me to drop it.
at 20350 haste apparently it is still illegal to switch to itf
As long as I don't have to go back to running HR, should be fine.
Yes you are actually sent to real, literal jail
It's heckin' crazy
If your boss kill timers are shorter than that and you're trying to see what's best for raid, you should sim what your timers actually are. But e.g. keys you can sim higher because ideally you're maintaining stacks from trash going into boss and should have full stacks
Right, I get for keys you can maintain
Its so hard to pick which stats to craft on my rings and necklace.
Feels like my most valuable stat keeps swappin around
Whatโs your ilvl
if it keeps hopping around that tells me you're upgrading gear constantly and if you're still upgrading all the time just default to haste/crit
712
yeah idk I guess when it comes to permanent crafted stats I just slam the general best ones and then adjust up and down w/ other stats w/ gems and enchants
Hmmm...fair enough, I suppose.
Worse comes to worse, I can just recraft my shield and belt
haste + whatever sims best
not hard
just sim all haste options
youre not at 27k
guys do we get dps trinket from vault while prot loot selected ?
all the important ones yes
So i got the Band of the Shattered Soul as an option, For someone who wont progress far into Mythic raiding, should i even consider this ring?
Is "cosmic" damage simply Magic damage?
guys quick question how much haste with the (ITF) Buff for m+ is capping our shield Block uptime ? if we use algari mana oil + vers flask(not haste Flask)
or if u use haste flask
does shield wall still stack to 80%
was there a shadow nerf to prot's ionizing strike?
hope so so I can go back to colossus 
im not sure yet what am i looking at but whole evening it hits almost x2 weaker for me...
compare logs from before today ig
thats how i see it
post logs 
same boss, same kill time. left is today. right is last week
that's odd
just ripped this from my weekly cache
๐ซฆ
is this as bad an ROI as it looks or am I missing something, this looks like the last thing I would ever upgrade
21k if you're good at managing but will get more comfortable up to 27kish
Why would it be the last thing you'd ever upgrade
the upgrade per resource looks super shit
or am I reading it wrong
Cosmic is cosmic (only in raid), arcane, nature, shadow, holy
You don't use tome for those numbers anyway so can't really judge based on that
Myth Tome holy
have any WA for this proc?
FuryLightning Strikes have a 15% chance to make your next 2 Bloodthirsts have no cooldown, deal 35% increased damage, and generate 2 additional Rage. ProtectionLightning Strikes have a 15% chance to make your next 2 Shield Slams have no cooldown.
ya you can make it p easy with the premade aura option
is 27k the point where it hits diminishing returns?
before that
grats!!
DR is before that since soft caps happen, but we dont care about it
19800 rating is first DR. 26334 is second DR. 27k is just shy of 40% haste from rating.
hey, where can i see that vault priority list again?
oh 1 sec
#protection message here you go
awesome, thanks
Looking at top logs in Heroic right now and uh..... Anyone know wtf this is?
uhhh
what the hell
that seems sus
maybe a badly merged log?
because they wanted both platforms?
nah its a fake log, or been modified
yeah but
gonna be taken down/removed from ranking
remember nexus king logs are fucked because whoever is logging only captures one side
so it could happen they tried to merge it
but yeah it can be either one i guess
oh really? interesting, but i don't think merging would result in casting multiple times in >0.75 seconds, I would think it would double the casts, but not all are so
yeah... youre probably right
i remember looking at rank 1 unholy log for mythic vexie in LoU, and it was modded to hell, had like 20-30 casts in the first 3 seconds lmao
So close to perfection ๐
is that the part where he jumps off the dragon
i have that happen to me where it acts like i can slam 5 times in a second
i dont think it actually did damage
oh no first few min
idk then
Its like the first 15s
Holy sheesh what a chest
well you did open as dps
its considerable yes
yeah i guess
shield is nobrainer here no?
there is no myth tier :/
oh right it starts at 704 for raid
Codex ๐
myth shoulders though
already got
or legs
don't have myth legs but no catalyst this week
rip
Well that's useless then. Everyone knows vault rewards expire in 6 days
yep ๐
If you don't catalyze them in that time, they disappear ๐
A well I guess I take the hero brand
indeed you do
imagine if that codex was a different kind of book
Kinda unfortunate vault lmao
๐
how so
you got a brand
smh
and even if you have it
thats a nucleus right beside it
thats anything but dissappointing
not even remotely close
Got hero brand off hunters tonight
gzzz
And we finally killed H Saladbar
nice
Big night
Feels so to me, for the vault, but tbh own fault to unlocking only 2x slots for m+
Noice
oh my god same thing on my rogue, 2 slots I already have tier on that I don't have a catalyst for
I'm gonna get brand from dungeon weekly, ezpz
Is there anything special that needs to be done in the sim for Antenna
Like setting the miss chance
nah
Or whatever that setting is labeled
im not sure if thats needed
its not a transmitter
just put a WA that alerts you
in game, i wouldnt touch sims
Aight
hmmm hard to trust sim, Pacemaker mythic vs antenna heroic for m+. i figure it will take some seconds to pull the adds and it might just waste the paceemaker
if i throw something at the packs to gather them, it wont start the pacemaker crit ?
so?
that is the most cooked take ive read today
and apb was around talking about vulperas
Guys, i need some help, got that bis ring with avoidance in the vault, and some myth leg that i can change to tier set. Should i get the ring or the legs ?
dude if you dont have the patience or manner to comminucate, just dont
i just asked if pacemaker mythic is comparable to a heroic antenna
you're still talking shit
take legs
someone has to teach you something about manners that your father never did
Morning!
Would you guys take a Heroic Antenna in vault if you have equipped Heroic Pacemaker and Brand of Ceaseless Ire ? (I sometimes like to swop out Pacemaker for Sacbrood)
Is antenna really worth ? Also have a ringing ritual mud myth track..
I guess tier?
i'd like to see them try
I dont raid
yes
Any advice
thx
Ty
Brother I dont understand. Are you saying Tomb is BIS ? I got that too. Should I still go for antenna ?
Don't threaten him with a good time
His point is antenna can be farmed and mythic tome isn't
I guess
Also tome is giga
it takes about 10-15 sec to gather the pack at 1st floodgate pull, pack takes about a minute to die. dont you think it's a legit concern asking if you're just wasiting the crit at gathering and the last seconds of the pack ?
I have come to teach nimchip
About my favorite way to bake a cake
You guys think about your pacemaker uptime?
No
i dont even know why its a thing for this person
Kekw
i'm either hard on medication or something else is going on, i dont think i mentioned tome
Yeah that's a different conversation
def hard on medication
If you aren't talking about tome, then you aren't playing a protein warrior!
Or prot
I guess
take this rat away from me man. forget about the take, is Pacemaker mythic comparable to heroic antenna bro damn
i have enough darama in my life
Yes
Idk sim it

thank you
but youre never gonna see a myth pacemaker again
so
good luck with that
at least until dinars show up
I've had two
But wait! What do you use if you donโt trust the sim
Not everyone can be this good
God I hope they remove the myth raid dinar restrictions (they won't)
yea before he started talking shit i had my concern about the sim
I was joking
He wasnt talking shit, he was just pointing out facts
i cant sim downtime, gather time
oh boy...
yea, without manners
I think letting m+ers play with the myth raid trinkies 2 months in is fine
Fragile oof
alright guys i'll answer the next question , leave it to me
Did your sim say pacemaker was better than antenna?
Don't let it get to you
what kind of stupid take is that xD
It's just a random person on the internet
Itโs a question. Not a take
I think in the final season they should always do like the original dinar as far as what you can buy. All cantrips/trinkets from the whole expansion

They could be related, you dont know that
Yeah that'd be nice
Is there much of a use for shadowmeld or stoneform this season in keys? I feel like there isn't anymore
"a sim cant sim downtime" yeah but... youre worried about pacemaker while gathering and not missing the orb for antenna?
i dont know man
And I'd hope you're at least hitting things while gathering
either way we sim 1.5 min 5 target patchwerks, its not expected to sim downtime lol
turns out you can parry while gathering, who knew
I body pull everything as a prank against my healer
Not if you let the baddies hit you in the back
Don't be silly; that'd be overpowered

thaaaank you , someone gets me
No I still donโt get you

How dare you call me silly. i am threatened and appalled
ey sorry for the late replies i'm raiding
XDD
raid your raid, king
kick that rat beach off the plane
Huh
Do not the rat
pacemaker IS better than Antena. You guys trust the AI shit. You miss the ball coming to you all the time lol
No I donโt
ok i
Iโve never missed an antenna ball
it might be too late for us NAers cause
God why does it post twice
what is going on lmao
damn
Raidbots isn't AI lol
see Ghash caught it
Uhm it's artificial and it's smarter than me
Raidbots powered by ChatGPT
damn bro i never would have thought, just saw so many people with antenna even tho it was harder to get
Did you ever see that Max video where the raider while he was undercover said he wouldnโt use weakauras because he tried it once and โit was a bunch of Chinese shitโ
And Max couldnโt stop laughing
LMAO
Same vibes rn
that reminds me of the guy here that wouldn't log cause he thought it stole his data
Max should do those videos again
lol
Everyone using the Chinese mists maze wa like 
God that dungeon was awful
i mean it was okay
i just had hoped they would have removed the maze rng
thats everyone's biggest gripe with it
Iโm ready for a remake of the legion boat
man how did i miss this masterpiece of a skyhold emoji
I bet theyโd cook up something foul there
Full BRD
Yes
As an m+ dungeon
YES
Mobs randomly sapping or stunning the tank for 5 seconds at a time with no DR

lol
That's my favourite part about tbc dungeons
What kinda timer would full brd need lol
Uh
All im saying is you guys sit and analyze trinkets and numbers and forget to play the game. I bet you lose at least 10% dmg due to keybinds, addons and flexibility. Then you login and see people with less gear outperfoming you and wonder why ๐ (not intended for you personally ofc). This isint data analyst excel shit you do at job...more factors take place than you think. And yes im 100% sure that Sim is total shit. (not enough filters to use it as you think it works atm)
Like 80 or 90 mins probably?
lmao

And ofc they're a paladin player
Some things in life are too perfect
lol
link vault pics and ask opinions of what to take of course
Looooool
jsut want to point out it's a stupid take to think everyone hasnt already done that xD
@frosty mango youโre normally awake right now. Check out the new copypasta
Thanks
i play 3-4 different specs each season. and i have to learn them again
the rest of optimizations are already in place, at least what i'm aware of
Done.. what?
at least tank is better. there was 30 plus something dps specs
Skizel is sharing their diary entries
UI, hotkeys, combat, the thingy about resistering hotkeys with a delay that was 400ms by default
i make my own weakaura, i just suck at new characters that's all
What kinda weakauras do you make
class weakaura
aaand i wont show xD i make my own because before i found out about wago, i spent a while making my own and now i cant get rid of the old habit
cant play with a different style
No balls has been called
i just typed in raid that i would trade my left nut sack for trinket, you think i care about ballss xD
what the
told you
well if it works it works

even if these are in the same place but not circle, i get confused
Oh my god he's playing paladin
whats your entire ui look like if i might ask
no just showed you paladin because warrior is new
deleted elvui after some years due to fps drop. it's now a mess
i cant stand elvui
man somehow i understand jakey more and more
How so
well and yam as well i guess
kinda feels like we stepped into the twilight zone
that's it NA, sleepy time
everybody out
I wanted to go to sleep
It's 6:20am my insomnia was playing up
But it feels like I ran across a National Geographic magazine
I should get some eep too
i made the wrong decision for some late caffeine so tomorrow is gonna be rough
well, earlier today i guess
Wat
New Nim copypasta
Jakey has that all new eye-tracking cursor to 'mouse-over' kick mobs, pretty big
Morning ppl, till today I use it antenna and brand champion trinkets and got at great vault peacemker myth I change it with antennna ?
do i need to track this trinket in m+?
Nope, itโs just insanely good!
So guys peacemaker mythic from great vault is better then antenna champion in m+?
Sim it to be sure
hmm how to sim patchwerk 5 bosses 40 seconds nightly without buffs from raid and compare items is good ?
Sim it for ST and MT. I can say it was worth for my warrior by far .
1 Boss 3 min is more accurate in m+ for the Most keys (unless you are playing keys between 17-19)
we do patchwerk 5 bosses 1:30 minutes
And patchwerk 1boss 3 minutes
Since rerolled to prot im sitting in full hc gear except belt and trinket ire (champ) ja champ legs. Craftet 720 wep, shield and wrist. What is ur recommend for next graft? Mainpeace for legs or belt? Got hc belt in bags but still haven replace the old one. Thx in advance!
I didnt have 4 pc tier but having it now how do you maximize dmg output? Is there an optimal rotation?
if you follow the BIS setup from the wowhead guide, we craft wrists and belt. I'd check out the guides, they are very useful
Just pull tight so your stacks dont dropp to hard
Hello all, finally got my brand trinket in vault, can i wear it with tome from priory? Or should i swap tome for something like pacemaker with passive str as well?
Or arcanocore?
If same track, it is generally agreed that brand+pacemaker is better for m+
For diff tracks the quick answer is "sim it"
Thank you!
Do keep in mind while simming, that brand takes a while to "charge up", and you should be able to keep stacks high throughout most m+ dungeons, so a short sim with low brand stacks may not be an accurate comparison
Alt-Prot
Crit/Haste/Avoidance-Bracers or Ringing Ritual Mud? Got HC Pacemaker and nhc Antenna
2 low crit high mastery chests and a vers mastery belt
sim it or take chest for more mainstats๐คทโโ๏ธ
I dont think you ever run Mud
and normaly you craft wrist so both crapp
True
congrats to socked i guess
But a slight ilvl improve might be better than a trinket youll never use
Did you craft bracers already?
Nope, held my crafts as I just started with the warr 2 IDs ago
I thought of taking bracers, crafting shield, 1h, Ring, Belt
Would that be viable?
quick vaul question mythc track tome of light or sacbrood i know for my paladin tome is crazy good i know its good for warry for dps but hooow good? (i simed it and yeah obv tome wins in dps)
for 1 target its bis: https://liquidarmory.com/trinket-tracker?wowClass=Warrior&wowSpec=Protection
more and it drops off a lot
and its like most tanks its just good for dps right? as crit gives parry but itsnt realy comparible to mainstat haste def wise right?
kinda new to warrior
take tome
Shield you shoulda crafted long ago
Well
Just started doing 10s last ID, waited for vault as it is only an alt ๐
Idk how old that alt is
Ok ok
Shield > 1h > bracers > belt generally, but yeah you can grab those bracers and craft ring
Will help you reach haste cap
there is a haste cap ?
Last mythic raid vault for a while start extending this week o7
Need 21k on order to go ITF instead of the talent that extends your shield block with Shield Slam
21k is the bare minimum, 21-25k is recommended for a good uptime on shield block
ohhhh daimn thats good to know after that haste drops of?
that explains why brood sac isnt good
as our t-set alone has shit ton of haste
i read the wowhead guide wheni rerolled few weeks ago and it wasnt mentioned there so i though just get as much haste as i could
you get increasingly high diminishing returns if you go too high, which makes other stats naturally more favored after a certain point anyways
sure, sims will put u on like 18k haste with itf tho
what u say @torpid dome ?
I pick Pacemaker ?
what ur other options were
well id go tome every time but if u main the M+ minigame and dont raid then mby tome is the play
even still id probs go tome
love the game, joined a soulhunters hc group for brand, got kicked at 80% bosshp, they killed the boss, could not roll for loot and got ID for it...
Tome is shit comparing with pacemaker or antenna or brand this trinkets are top right now
i asked kira and yoda and explain it on youtube videos
tome is bis for single target/prio target
conform of bloodmalet but conform sims and other website and real pushers brand trinket is nr 1 ST
it sounds like u already made up ur mind so go ahead take pacemaker
still a decent item
If u look mate war prot on top 10 raiderio players that do m+ u never see tome
world players
boots are not that good on tank right ? so i go pacemaker ?
playing with ceaseless ire and devotion atm
Pacemaker's an incredible trinket; fine it ST, does real good in AOE
For M+, your overalls will probably be higher with Pace, but you might find more success with the prio/ST damage for bosses
did u have a stroke?
Uhhh Guys, I need some help deciding on vault.
I have these 2 "real" options:
high versa low crit Neck
Mythic Antenna.
My current neck is crit haste hero.
My trinkets are mythic Pacemaker and LFR Brand. (Yeah i've been unlucky on brand).
This is for m+, Don't tank or really care for raid.
What would you guys do?
leech proc on boots also
whats best to do btw, open vault as prot or something else?
no why u ask and talk with me like this ?
this or hc antena? sim says its 2.1% increase but im not sure if it can be trusted ngl
Question.
I got myth pacemaker and arakara sac/ solea hc eq.
From vault i can choose antenna myth or myth head (upgrade from hc)
The diff is 5 k in preference to head. Is the antenna good for tanking or is it only for dps players?
I, at least, literally did not even understand what you were trying to say with that statement
id go for antena and arakara
pacemaker is good but antena >>>
no antena is really not that hot
its been over simming
1 because the sim for it was giving extra stacks
and 2 ppl arent missing with miss chances
which do happen
id take pace over antena
hi all im new here
ive no idea what to take here raid loot is HC dungeons are myth
ive done some research and watched yodas video about trinkets but i cant lie ive still very stuck
Ire
thats what everything is pointing me towards i just wanted to make sure, even on HC is it that much better?
I am simming with 25% miss chance to balance this
good
How about pace and antenna?
i would go for brand
too much crit
ok thank you for the help i think the idea of taking a HC over Myth was holding me up
for me its 9-10% healing and damage done overall in m+ runs ilvl710
missing antenna orbs isn't really all that common imo
Is the Incorporeal Warpclaw really that strong? i really have doubts about it but it sims good..
ok thank you is tome still good for us or better to pick something else?
All good guys I solved my mistery, asked Dan streamer of warrior and explain it too, so I got pacemaker myth and use 2nd trinket brand champion all good
Thnx for all advices
whats ur second trinket?
ive been running tome and warpcalw at 710
but im taking ire this vault
ire and tome is good
myth sacbrood is simming more than champion brand. On AoE.. sounds correct ?
but sim for warpclaw not sure which is better, i assume uneed crit from tome
my sims saying tome and ire over everything
You don't mention for what situation ? ST/MT ? M+ or Raid ?
i can already tell u its a short sim, so they arent letting ire stac
Gday as a PURE M+ player do you want a % of vera this session in โhigherโ keys with all the magic damage?
Also if so do you Craft your stuff with dusk thread ๐งต also Hast/vers on it???? Thank you guys
you pick what stats u want
they have very little impact on your surivibility
u will never get to any % of vers that will actually do something for u
@pallid quiver @boreal heath @prime sphinx guys thnx for answering me and talking with me, apreciate it and wish u have a awesome week with the reset and good vault to all, btw my mystery what to pick was solved for a m+ player I dont do raids I only do open world quests (reputation kinda) and more m+ so as a I ideea I will play with Pacemaker myth track and Brand champion track till I get it heroic from vault because I farm it from raid for 4 weeks and every time dont wanna drop ! ^_^
Okey cool can you enlighten me why โhigherโ key guys rock a decent amount of vera?
because they want too
and ppl still thing is does something like it did in BFA with corruptions where u could get 50% of it when u cant even get close to that now
u need the most stat to get 1% of vers and all stats have defensive value
Okey thanks
just sub "according to" instead of "conform"
honestly, HC brand you could get any week in HC raid, myth pacemaker may not show up again in the vault...
tough choice
id take pace over hc ire anyday
shall i take this or myth legs? im not sure
Kinda depends on your curent trinkets
champion brand and antenna
And how likely are u to get myth legs on reclear
those are bis, dont change them till u get them on better track
thats not how bis works, i guarentee that idol does more than antenna
it does specially 5targets
ofc it does
but the 1sec cast scares me a lot
what legs u have?
hero all
u are not going to die in 1 second
idk about that xd you cant block while casting can you?
im doing 14s as a 705ilvl warrior, i think i can get folded realquick
u have to shockwave the mobs before using stone idol
u shockwave and cast
i dont see a problem
just take the legs man xd
just time it
ooh yer massive difference on ST of 723 antenna nd 723 idol
and thats with no miss chance
on antenna u miss 1 idol is just better
lmao
yeah i do, but care more for aoe
maybe i shouldnt?
threat wise i think its better
not gonna lose threat on 1 target for sure xd
you really shouldnt, ST damage is far more important in Keys, and as prots best ST stats have very very small margin when u go into aoe u sim whats best for ST
then it will just scale nicely into aoe
trinkets are baically a vibe pick
aoe sim antenna still not hot
even at 0% miss chance
compared to idol
you got apoint
gonna make the sims and choose
bro one thunder clap and u have threat for whole pull, thereat isnt a issue at all
ask my dk lmfao
currently rocking mythic tome and hc pacemaker. is it even worth it for m+ or do I grab a mythic shoulder tierpiece?
thats not worth it at all
ara kara is not that good
darn, too season 1 brained I guess still. thanks folks โค๏ธ
does dr work on shields/barriers u get from a healer?
right is st left is aoe
idol is deff better just use it proper x)
i am so unlucky this season ๐ข lets see what sims will tell
ok ty
Thats not even a bad neck wdym unlucky
Even momas can be good if rest of you gear allows it ..
What would you guys pick here? ๐
shield and it is not even remotely close
not even close to being close
shield is your most important slot
facts
Between myth track shield and weapon what should I pick? Have both crafted at 720 currently. Leaning towards shield, but not sure
Huum ok, i though the other shield stats + Leech could make it closer of a choice
Thanks
stats wise which is better? do u do mythic raid? 1st drops mace and 3rd drops shield
Hello, which item would you recommend please? (m+ only player) The ring has Leech as well, not sure if that matters. โค๏ธ
Haste/Vers wep, crit/Mast shield so slightly better stats on wep. Don't really raid, only the occasional first bosses myth pug
its easy to get the weapon in the first boss so i might take shield
but i'd pug mythic first before choosing
the only stat that matters on shield is ilvl
I hope you understand that there's absolutely no way we can answer this question without knowing what your current gear is
It's almost certainly going to be the myth track shield unless you already have a myth track shield
The only situation where you wouldn't take shield is if you have a 720 crafted. In that case, you could consider taking the myth track chest if it's an upgrade.
Even 3 ilvls on shield is good though
Shield if you dont have myth track
EVEN WITH 720 CRAFT
Im thinking of taking loomithar's shield isntead of other good upgrade if it won't drop again today 
what do i pick :/ myth track tier chest or that trinket
i have hero chest with avoidance and these trinkets
( and have 4set)
I would take trinket for raiding, as you can get any other myth track chest easier than trinket again
Trinket
Better than antenna and more flexible
And you overlap many crits buff with both pace and antenna
In terms of sims, should we always aim for highest damage % increase? I'm debating on what to craft / get on vault this week, and the top sim option makes me drop ~7k crit (im at 24k rn) and ~800 haste leaving me at 19k while gaining quite a lot of versa and mastery, while the second best option leaves me with more crit and haste but being 0.5% lower overall dps. This is the sim for reference https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/aGPuKyne1jmb6W7fit9x8o
but my antenna has leech T_T
Dont think 1% leech will surpass myth tome
leech is our bis stat wdym
My vault has mythic tome, soleah and shoulders. I have now trinkets hero Sacbrood and Brand, also hero shoulders. What should I get?
id personally take that trinket, its easier to get any myth pants
than this trinket on myth
hoho
I feel like this hasnt been reposted yet today
Im killing loomi weeekly but I can't farm antenna because there are still like 10 dps players in my group that have higher prio for that 
right but again its now been fixed on sims
Toughie
and simming a whole lot less than it was
and I cant farm shield from Loomi, cause shit doesnt drop 
antenna at 723 is 5k dps increase over tome and ire over 5 mins
Just tell all those dps to grab antenna from vault
is mostly m+ trinket for us
even in aoe its not that great, like im pretty sure pace would outsim it
I have myth pacemaker in vault, but on 5min it sims pretty same as ire, despite maker being upgraded to 723 and ire onmly 710
Ire also gives shields so its goated
its not that much
is that with ire already charged? or simming for raid (which means starting from 0 charges)
simming for raid, I dont even know if I can change setting for it in the sims
and I dont need to sim for dungeons anyway
so will they increase hero ilevel cap next week?
Hello peeps! vault question, are the HC boots still better ? i have a normal crit/haste hero boots.
I was going to insta click that tome of light's devotion, it has leech on it, but now idk
and I understand both of those items are not straighforward SIM
Hello eveyrone,
I got in my chest the HM antenna and MM Pacemaker ? Which is the better choice ? (2nd trinket is the ceaseless ire in HM)
in my vault* sorry
nobody reads this Sadge
I read, thank you!
Iam pretty new to prot warri .. could some1 tell me the perfect opener with the raid and the m+ build?
You insta click the light's devotion lamo
Interlopers are meh at best for prot warrior. Basically a random myth track boots outperforms HC interlopers
just hack your client and make boots think you are a fury warrior, so you get damage proc 
always go with gut feeling, thanks sir
Best I can do is I can become a furry warrior
owo
How do people sim for M+? 6 bosses over 3 min?
I do less time when I sim m+ .. normally I do 1 min
thing is that kinda just shows on use to be best even tho u dont always ahve that up every pull
1, 1:30, 3 u should sim at all lengths maybe even a cheeky 4
Love this! Is this true for Raid, M+ or both?
<@&257983573498265600>
hey, i was watching that
can we just pin this and spam everyone to watch pins?
i mean they can message link
instead of spam the message
which i have told them to do
hey can someone explain to me why the Ring of Panoply doesnt sim better than the current ones?
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/kctSvHcdi2QB6Rb3jyCoVE
i mean it barely does so it does, but its because u get more value out of the other stats based on the gear u ahve
as u have a lot fo crit and haste already
i was hoping for a better diff. i have ~28k haste with it equipped
thats too much haste I'd say
I have not been told so, will do that from now on
nobody will read it anyways 
Finally, an okay vault(?)
take all 3 
I am trying, game master hasn't responded.
I've got a HC peacemaker and HC versions of the rest so I guess I'll need to learn how to use simc ? 
That's not true, i did check the PINs when i arrived here, same goes for FAQ ๐
fully upgraded myth chest will sim the best, pacemaker 2nd
question is if u ever decide on doing 1st boss on mythic cuz you can get myth track chest there
i mean the message link
id grab pacemaker, there are more myth track chests and their secondary stats aren't all that important
is it just me or does pacemaker show up very often in vaults?
i got it today aswell
Doing it as a tank sounds painful/hard ngl but I have been 100% out of raiding I am even slackmaxxing doing 6/8 for brand after an actual garbage bin paladin stole it (he couldn't time 10s as a tank so he needed it ngl)
I might give it a think that said for now I'll go work work and think it during the day.
ngl means "not gonna lie" right ?
as Nephtus said, you have a higher chance of seeing another myth chest than pacemaker
i guess dinars could change that tho
Yeah, I'll get the peacemaker more than likely.
Dinars can buy better things than peacemakers like raid trinkets can't they?
did they explain how dinars will work, exactly?
can you use them for myth raid items?
only if u killed the boss
mythic raid boosters already salivating
antenna likely a very affordable one since it's "only" 2nd boss mythic
brand tho... 
I've killed it (in hc) :^)
And by the time dinars come out I am sure I can gaslight someone to let me enter for the demon hunters kill
yeah, shit system imo
Would be the same as S2 i guess
sooo... would u guys use mythic secret tech or the raid trinket?
or drop hc antenna for sectech?
or just not worth in generell
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/iqq7PccJCyftNsb7CZUSr4
Wish this would be true. But what would aprox the true numbers be in a +m ? 7M overall?
can't generalize at that level. M+ overall damage depends on a million factors, such as pull size, BL timings, pulling cadence, specific mob DRs, damage amps...
21k
And one last question for the moment, when do we replace the delve belt
When something sims higher than it
Overall with myth or 720 craft belt
Do we want to sit as close to 21k haste or more the better?
Sims without factoring in the swap between ITF and HR will probably get you down to 20k haste
I think it stops desiring haste as much around there
So keep that in mind as you sim
๐ซก
Sorry for probably repetitive / stupid questions - Just trying to pick something up other than Brew
There is not stupid question in this world and people who tell you this are stupid
wowhead says 710 ilvl is enough
also, it'll soon be nerfed a bit, making the margin even bigger
I've got 28k and saw no problem
how strong is those interlooper boots from raid really for tank vs ilvl?
Ilvl is better from what they said in the discord
If you can get them in myth, go. Otherwise ilvl prio
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/5JS7LvfTQfK2TZKe9FD8Rz
Is antena not worth to take ?
so what are we crafting exactly? rings and neck?
ccouldve just said yes, but thanks
???
It's just not that simple
just sim what to craft neck
And another weeks, no Brand. Like fuck this shitty trinket -_-
Hey guys, I am a bit confused here should i go for 3rd tier piece or get the Ara'kara trincket now that i found it ๐ Thanks!
same same
even rolled a 80 on this shit in the Normal Raid just now
but no
the 670 ilvl alt Prot Warrior got it ofc he rolls a 93
tier certainly most important
sacbrood is very mediocre
@chrome falcon Thanks m8
sim 5t 1:30 or 1t 3:00
tyty
Is the LFR Version of Brand better then 710 tome? I dont even know If I want to to the LFR for this
can also try 4 myth dungeons
iuf not done already
should be another hc omega item
unless im mistaken
gotta believe brother
no way in hell there will be a brand in there xdd
probably
i mean, the tooltip hotfix additonally hurt tome
Just so tilting knowing how much dmg I lose just because this game hates me
Most triggering was the guy who had champion already but wanted the heroic version no matter what and obviously got it too ๐
wcyd
does someone have the specific spell reflect wa that says how much dmg u reflected?
YOu can see this in details or whatever damage counter you've got and in logs
i have crafted shield
crafted is only temp until u have a myth track
your less likely to see a myth shield again
can i catalyst shield for better stats ?
we dont care about stats on shield
technically yes but sounds like an awful idea
so best is to take shield guys ?
u actually dont want crit haste on everything i have a vers mastery shield and no crit haste shield has simmed higher cause i already have enough
you probably get stronger in the short term by taking gloves/legs
but you will want myth shield eventually
and it's not an easy thing to get
Wait u can catalyze wepons ? Does it give skin also?
wait i said technically yes
Like tmog I mean
and that's just not true
i'm pretty sure you can't catalyst shield
i guess the correct thing to say is "even if you could that's a terrible idea"
someone is gaslighting people insanely hard about the value of stats i think because we have a ton of people a day asking what to pick between good ilvl and good stats
sorry guys 1 more thing coz i had crafter shield and i have wrist what to craft next belt or ?
Had a little hope there was something i didnt knew and wanted to abuse my alts for new tmogs xd
belt or boots
๐ซก
Im thinking about crafting neck next
I lose 1.5k haste but I am at 25900 unbuffed so I guess its fine xd
it happens everywhere, people think focusing on one or two stats is important
it comes from vanilla and/or classic versions
and very likely not gonna stop
well back in the day, guides also stated DR / breakpoints q:^)
so people knew that having 40% haste from gear isnt that good.
Until BFA is was almost the case for every spec, focusin one secondary stats until breakpoints then another one
But most ppl forgot the main stats weight
And for us, tanks, how strenghts and stam weight high over than secondary
yes i know, i was here while it was happening
my good stats are mastery and vers right now
So for new ppl who reads this : the only point you need to aim in secondary stats : ~22k haste to swap HR to ITF. Otherwise, dont care, ilvl above all
yep same
Well now it says whats stats to follow and then tells you to go for ilvl and sim yo self which is imho more acurate than just "go this for 40% then that for another 20%"
some classes like BDK having hard stops on certain stats also doesnt help (like haste in their case)
question; is this haste value before flask and weapon oil?
Always sim yourseld ๐
For what I know, before
you should know the answer to that augusto
Cuz we're using alchemical chaos flask which it's a stats buff rng
i actually dont

I just throw gear on
its always been unbufed
and play game
Didnt study well
always
Always aim for unbuffed cuz you dont relieve on rng things
