Lol same
any suggestion on what to craft? chest is still champ
Belt
big moosy
not looking forward to my keys with 22k haste
we can't all be jakey
Finally resi 17 pugging (f u floodgate) before ilvl increases, free from prison
its honestly fine
Next prison at 18 then after ilvl increase?
Sadly yes 😭
Hey guys im installing my warrior as an new alt. Reading guides and rotations and i see Impending vistory, slam, whirlwind and rend not on the rotation. shouldnt i be using those?
Hi, rend is applied by TC/TB, it's an evolution of TC via a talent. Slam and Whirwind you are not going to use them
Impending Victory is not in the rotation it's to be used to help on healing when there is a global AOE to help the overall heal, or a big hit on you for examples
ah good to know thanks
Yo guys, do raidbot sim correctly Reshii's boots ?
wich hero spec would you guys suggest for beginners ? i read both are good
I gave up and am just waiting for turbo
Both are good 🙂 Thane is most used as it as higher DPS at the moment.
But no difference for super noobs with a easier rotation or less buttons?
It's close by i would say. I would recommand Thane as you'll get more materials to help you out. like videos or people you can compare too since it's more played
Both are good, Thane is easier to get going with and is less complex.
Now, I would recommend you to dabble a bit with both. As I personally prefer Col, as gameplay to me is a lot more fun, the high burst damage and high bleed healing is quite feels good
haha same! one of my first times hitting 5m overall actually
is this pretty decent waste %?
Just a tip I learned recently, to see your rage overall gain/wast, don't select yourself in the report, you'll see the rage per player instead of per spell
Oooh that's cool
i hit 6.3 in HOA 10 the other day, PB by a lot 
Ok, ya beat my PB 5.5m Aas BDK and left me in the dust 
in fairness it was but a humble 10 and i pulled the place in like 4 combats
Still respectable
Do we still Macro Shield Slam from IP?
i dont think we ever did
Good, cause I deleted the macro last night 😂
Yes we do
But again it replces your ip button
Not ss
Its only used to snipe resets when u press ip
ah right i forgor, i was thinking of "when press SS, cast IP also"
Yeah that's what I meant jakey
to try and snipe some SS resets
with the CD of IP being 1sec, it's sometimes actually tough to dump rage when you're just getting free real estate
Yes u want it if u snipe a resrt u just press ip again
Its better for yyour fingers too cause you nit miving them in that case to hit 2 buttons
ah fair
That's my secret, captain. I never move my fingers
Guys are there buffs i should aways maintain as prot? Or is it just press a defensive when big dmg comes
Shield block up every day all day
Wall when big hits go ouchie
Rest on CD or when it makes sense
and spell reflect if you think you're gonna take magic 😛
Prot is one of the easiest tanks to understand, but hardest to master fully. You can really go full damage mode on the nuances of understanding when you're gonna take hits etc
cool thnx guys
Gathering is also a high level of skill, but that goes for pretty much all tanks
I'm switching from Brewmaster to Prot warrior ~ Would anyone mind giving me a hand with my set up/rotations and so on?
edit: oops I typed too much about Brewmasters, so I edited it.
I was just hoping that someone may be willing to use VC or DM's to help a new warrior out.
I want to make Warriors look good/represent the power of Warriors! ^_^
Ahead of time:
Thanks for any/all the help! I'm a tauren, named JBMauney - Bleeding Hollow. (Yeah, the famous bull rider, who after his face was stepped on by a bull. As they were getting the strecher, he suddenly woke up, refused to go to the Hospital, and just asked for a Cig at the Health Tent lmfao).
Also, sorry for the long message/asking for help directly. I've spent the majority of the summer hospitalized myself, and I would just like to have a very strong start/not pick up bad habits.
I hope this wasn't the wrong place to post this.
hi on nexus-king mm i have problems to move fast the boss to the edge any advice
I played Brew last season too, got pretty much every tank to 3K+ except VDH.
The biggest changes I found from Brew to Prot was literally your ability to just ignore some mechanics on Prot big time 😂
We're all happy to help out a fellow fallen comrade via Tauren 😂
Heyo, for Mythic Nexus king does Guardian Angel work as an external or does the MC on death fuck with it?
Im not sure if it actually procs properly since you dont technically 'die'
Hello gamers, apologies in advance if its a question in the wrong channel, but how much of our overall dmg, % wise, should Execute be, in m+?
Guys how hard is LFR to tank with 0 experience? can i just go in or should i watch some tanking vids
on 1-5, 0
I'd watch a quick video first if you are a fresh player.
But it's super easy to tank
You can check https://www.mythictrap.com/en
Overall explanations with short video to show, LFR is basically normal, sometime even some mechanics are removed :x
or simplified, like on saladar you don't need to know which group you are in, you are TP a the location directly
First you have some good informations on wowhead guide. and then you can ask questions here and find videos online where people explain how to play it. As mentionned by FunkyKitty just before your message playing war prot is fairly easy, difficult to master ^^
some links and helpfull details are listed here too https://discord.com/channels/148872210742771712/1266837564925673596
If I missed the spark last week can I catch up this week?
cause I just did a weekly activity quest and it didnt give me a 2nd spark
you'll get it when killing boss in raid, M+ and I think even in delves
so I can just go do an LFR boss
Any skips in dungeons I should learn as a nelf tank? Or maybe routes in general? My routes I’ve typically done aren’t working so great in 14s and up as of late. Idk if it’s just bad luck or things hit harder now
There’s no mandatory skips needed in any key at that level. About the only major skip this season is the last two jump starters in floodgate before last boss and even then you don’t seriously need to think about that until 18/19. As a Nelf (but any race really now the potion exists) a common skip I do in eco dome is the first sentinel after first boss.
You rejoining us in midnight sir?
Despite some silly gate talents (pain & gain required to get crackling thunder smh), you can actually pretty much get everything you'd want in the new trees
just don't take crackling thunder, ez

Nome needs complexity
And a lot of skill expression
If everything becomes ez mode Nome would just beat the game in like 3 seconds solo and it'd be a waste of time
At least for leveling up.
guys for the discord suggested MT build for M+ can I drop the execute talents and go for other talents? I rarely click execute
check out the wowhead builds
execute with its corresponding talents does do a lot of damage, but you can just play the 'push' build
pretty free to do what you prefer
tysm
has anyone encountered this? its saying ive collected 9/10 fractures sparks but I dont have one in my bags
Bank??
our BDK lives the slam with GS and like nothing else
or your hpriest can use it to keep themselves alive if they need to
What is the experts opinion on pwar 12.0?
Question regarding next week and mythic plus mythic track trinkets easy ontainable, would a antenna hc be better than pacemaker mythic track? Ofc fully upgraded.
For mythic + higher keys
how do y'all feel about the removal of cooldown reduction on shield wall from the alpha
im not an expert but removing the cdr on shield is gonna be a massive blow
it's gonna have sword and board, defo
Is it though
They removed spell block and adjusted for its removal (which was imo a dumb way of going about it) but it has been largely fine
The sky didn’t fall
We’re like alpha stages right now, I’m personally not gonna think about it at all until we’re closer to open beta and get an actual sense of what gameplay might look like as a whole
With all the changes hopefully they get us into the beta quickly so we have plenty of time to see how it all feels
Anyone notice that Shockwave sometimes doesn't interrupt and sometimes it does?>
That’s because of stun Dr
You only get three stuns and then they don’t work anymore
If you’re grouped with a dh and a shaman you can assume your shockwave will stop working relatively early in a pull
@sharp merlin need to cast a fear to brake the DR
that one I miss now on me war
Hmmm
I thought so
And yes, it was DH and shammy 😂
Also on dragon boss gambit melee constantly moan, but they seem to blame tank for not having uptime, but range drop their puddles in Narnia? WTF
not for long
that change is going to be so nice
Yes that is because they are dumb
there's a channel for discussing midnight but worth remembering that every tank is losing all their CDR on defensive (as far as i'm aware) so it'll probably be balanced around that fact
You can adjust as the tank but only so much
Why did they remove cdr? Shield slam?
no i mean shield wall
AFAIK almost all cdr is removed in the game
For defensives
They don’t want living to be unpredictable
but most defensives on tanks like ardent defender and meta are like 2 minutes
Why they hate tanks?
What’s wild to me is changes like these are exactly what killed ff14
at least make shield wall 2 min
Living shouldn’t be unpredictable imo
Did they do anything good at least?
but the difference of having a 2 min defensive and 3 minute defensive is bonkers. Why not make it two minutes
Only in the context of current gameplay
We have no idea what encounter and dungeon design looks like
Yeah but they’re like.. how did this tank get this rio?
Fucking morons
I swear no one enjoys playing the game 😂
im loving the changes with the shouts though finally warrior has some utility
nevermind ignore me
IGNORED
I swear to god im about to just vanish into legion remix and stop raiding lolol
Isn't what will happen for a lot of people ?
same
Im conflicted on what i wanna play there , cuz DH just have tons of zooms zooms which at least in mop was hella usefull
for sure want to play something that can tank or heal
so you can que content and get stuff done fast
Im prob gonna play War or DK
Im between war and dh , maaaaaybe druid
i dont wanna play the same class again but im not gonna rule it out
so warrior, shaman, warlock, priest are kind of the options, the last 3 being my least played
I'm gonna play either a spriest or a dk I think
I played resto sham during mop remix but realized after a few weeks nobody needed healers
That may change with there being scaling dungeons and whatnot but
yeah i aint playing healer
ngl, with enough hopium that the base blizz UI functions well enough to not need weakauras
if not.... then well get the pitchforks
will blizzard help restore sparks if a totally moron person that totally isnt me crafted leather instead of plate ?
maybe
place a ticket
a guildie did the same thing and got lucky
and they gave the spark back
but its such a case by case basis thing
what would yall gamers craft next? i guess ring?
Prob chest but sim
Those boots looking sad too
Prob swap them for some heroic ones from m+ in the short term
very sadge - waiting for dinar boy - still havent got a brand either have like 10 lfr runs
I would craft ring personally, but chest is biggest upgrade
I know theres a mythic chest off first boss
but IDK what type of content you do weekly
just mythic plus mainly, havent really played this guy too much but just got back into it this week
you have any mythic raid experience/can you get into a first two pug? Friends for HM?
chest is your best bet then
naw, its totally fine
those are just places with access to myth pieces
i dont, im just want brand
so if you are able to do it, you may want to hold on craft first
have a myth pace, no tome yet
could farm a hero tome if thats better than lfr brand
didnt know that was the case
its a veteran track brand
its 2 whole tracks under a hero track trinket
you can sim if you want to confirm but... it should be obvious it'll fall behind
Everything but hero track gear will get vastly outperformed by other stuff especially once the 2 extra track levels happens
and thought it might edge out tome
dinars are in 2.5 weeks
3
so if you want brand, you just need to do normal soul hunters to buy a hero track
oh no you right its in 2
oh yeah ive got my shopping list ready haha - boots brand and idk, maybe a mud if i need it
yeah i did that once in week 1 tryna get it, havent done it since
im aware
so shopping lists are 🤷♂️
cause you might get those items in the vault or as drops
i dont raid so i will not be getting boots or brand, maybe just mud
why mud
yea, mud is lame af
hero track mud is good enough
i love covering myself in mud i wont stand for mud slander
what else would you buy with a 3rd? if you only did m+ and I have a myth pacemaker
from myth to hero you dont lose a whole lot and you still have the cdr which is exactly what you use it for
because technically you use it on very select dungeons and encounters
yeah i only put it on for priory and flood really
just buy a myth bombsuit 4head
and you dont go left
yea, priory is big chilling
floodgate is less so.... but mostly cause the timer on that place is kind of fucked
well sure but aside from flood
its just Big Momma when you want Mud right?
I cant really think of another spot for it there
or at least, I cant rationlize losing damage for it
Dawn I could see
i guess maybe an idol then, i have a hero track mud already too but i probably wont use idol if pacemaker is our BIS (at least someone here told me that a week ago)
prob the hardest tank dungeon this season
imo
dem fucking shadowblade guys are the worst
me and all the homies hate them

it is kinda decent for So'azmi too
just not needed though
but.. that's just one encounter which is eh
losing value for the rest of the dungeon seems not worth
yeah depleted a 14 and a 15 there earlier because healer went down twice both times - was able to live until they got back and they butt pulled 2 mobs and got one shot
ooo, mud could be useful on 1st boss in Streets
if you pull in those peacekeepers with him
and thats only if you do that
those guys hurt
mud mightve saved me on the second death waiting for em to fly down
yes but there's not a lot of CDR there
I though you just use antenna and be chilling
Antenna stinky
no dots = no cdr
tru tru
I havnt played mud once this season tbh
I dont think its necessary one bit
I played it in one dungeon as bear because my other trinkets were turbo dog
and bear likes vers anyways
I wore it once in priory today just because it was a 12 pug group and I went left - has anyone got a decent route for right side? Ive been healing all season apart from week 1

ty
i dont like your pull 4
too many casters
kind of cringe
great minds think alike
Do you tank pull 2 downstairs?
Or rather how do you avoid the pat?
You run up and grab the footmen and go down to the caster pack by stairs
Ty
I usually tank that like right in front of the stairs
Ive seen a variation where instead of the pack below, you pull the pat with the footmen and fight them all and miniboss just down on the stairs
But that route is fairly standard rn
so do it with the knight pat instead
yea, I pull the soliders from upstairs down
honestly its not the caster pack thats a problem
the 3 lynx double shooter pack
is just a roll of the dice if someone gets stacked
yea, I prefer doing that
1 cast>3 cast
theres also a lynx in that pack
its fine to wait
i love it when people let me reflect, its quite rare in pugs (prio 13 last boss)
i didnt even have to say anything either they were just locked in
Good feeling
next group you go every cast except the ones not targeting you are kicked
Just tell your groups not to kick
That boss or third halls boss
It only casts on you and it does zero damage
Hahaha
is there ever a key level youd get to and think - i need this kicked if I dont have reflect up?
HoA on the third boss I’d say if you are pulling trash into the boss, you don’t have reflect, and you have 15+ debuff stacks from the trash - you will prob need a kick
But you can alternate kick/reflect
So it’s never an issue
Outside of that no
yeah in HOA ive been alternating, on priory i just dont kick at all and like you said, does nothing
I have definitely been clapped in a 16 or 17 halls because of the trash debuff
But I don’t think the priory one does enough to matter
agreed, doesnt it mess with her spell queuing or something too when you kick? because of the other spells being holy
i remember last season them saying dont kick even without a prot warrior
in high keys
No not exactly it just compresses her cast windows so you end up getting and overlap of the aoe and the explosion which is ass
hello, is there somewhere i can see the normal route for prioroy?
Threechest.io has a bunch
The raider.io weekly routes are also fine up to like 14-15
just wanna say, I used a slight variation of this doubling up the pat with the 3 pack and it was real good - felt effortless compared to going left
is this sketchy? I actually healed this on a +14, and stole it from that tank, but then got told off when I ran it myself (in a 10)
specifically pull 2 is what triggered somebody
Thats fine lol
Just a lot of kicks
I wouldnt bitch about it in a 10 of all places
yeah that was what he said, 'if youre gonna pull that tank you better kick'
i had 4 kicks, he had 0
i thought i was crazy because i had seen it done of 14 with literally no issues at all
its possible, i did shout the first 2 casts on the gather
probably shouldve lets those go off since they were prolly on me
they can los the first dot too afaik, just need to let them know before hand
Combine 2 and 4
With lust
Aoe stuns into kick rotations
well
your kinda doing it wrong
the whole reason you do pull 2 (which is sketchy and hard to do)
is so EVERYTHING else goes intoboss
if your not doing that i wouldnt bother with pull 2
3 onto boss
Anyways, bear am i right
if you do pull 2 you do this
if your doing pull 2and not doing this break it up more
these will defo be adjusted, I just came back to prot warrior this week after playing healer, so the key levels im at dont warrant that third pull yet
so maybe ill swap out the miniboss for the 2 pack until I get to the key level where this strat starts getting more viable
for reference I did my first 14 today on the prot boy
this is my like, standard pull
this is what I end up doing yeah
yeah thats defo a safer play until the timer gets tight enough to change it up
thanks folks
the standard pull is what i did on my 18
and we timed it with 10% left
so thats fine all the way up to 19
beautiful
20 you probably do the sketchy way
Hello 🙂 This week a got a Cursed Stone Idol from my vault, and, since I still had a shitty trinket in on of my slots, I took it. What's the best timing to use it in the opening sequence in raid?
Is idol your only option? Its not very good in raid
atm yes
Damn. If you're taking boss first I'd send it once you have SB rolling, if you're not taking boss on pull then just send it asap. Either way before Avatar
But def be on the lookout for tome, brand, even arcanocore is p dece
Idol crushes in M+ tho
uhhh
I already got tome luckily
might get giga slapped if you send it while tanking raid
depends on what level of raid iguess
Shield wall before popping it if you're active tank I guess
You cant block/parry/dodge during the channel
time it between autos lol
guys how do i know the best talent for pushing each dungeon ?
Prot doesnt really have much of value to change between dungeons outside of turbo-minmaxing
Wrecking throw for eco-dome 🧠
but then i have to bring a hunter :(
oh i know that
but they're all playing the wrong spec
I see one of THOSE in queue, instant invite
Where is myrhic plus solo q and flex mythic size raiding in patch notes? Those are the needed ones
Oh my sweet summer pepega
Poor people queuing off meta specs in soloq getting flamed relentlessly for every small mistake
oooo, do we need to make a meta pug dps tier list
pug mages at bottom
12.0 alpha tank tier list just dropped!
I see not much has changed. Bear still aucks lol
for M+, should i use 714 cursed stone idol or 704 antenna
cursed stone idol is pretty yuge if you can use it well
would a stone idol be better to farm than a tome?
this is assuming myth pacemaker in the other slot, no brand acquired
For m+ yes
awesome, thank you
I’ve never had a fury do anything in my keys other than brick them so this is quite surprising to see someone with the opposite experience
Will agree arcane mages are just so shitty no matter their io it seems
ive found them to be unreliable at best in pugs - theyre awesome on paper but it just doesnt translate well
still would rather take arcane in its current form over BFA fire mage
im cOmBuStInG BRO
Tf are we supposed to do in arakar first boss? Im trying to move boss cause the healer is standing on the wrong side of the boss and adds are patting toward us, the rest of the group is on the side of the boss so the adds are gonna get eaten anyway, boss eats all the adds, kills us. Two dps tell me I need to tank the boss next to the eggs, I say im moving the boss cause adds are patting toward us, then another dps says I didnt move the boss enough
dps fault
and healer fault in that case
they have no business being on the other side of the boss while fixated
they told me my positioning is bad , I tanked it fairly close to the eggs all the dps had to do was walk forward 5 feet and let the adds hit them 3 feet outside of melee range
from what you ve said it looks to me that the positioning of their neurons in their head is bad
they have to be between the boss and the eggs
it's so simple I don't get how people screw it up
you keep them close to the eggs and move properly as a team during gossamer
i've been griefed like this as well multiple times
because they cannot understand thay they lead the adds into boss
Like this was the positioning basically
yea classic
there was more shit on the eggs which is why I couldnt get closer, but thats pretty much it
Im trying to kite boss back, but the dps are following the boss as I pull it back, then complain that I didnt move it enough
2 things are important on this boss
dps and healer movement in relation with the eggs and boss
group movement durring gossamer
one of these 2 go wrong in a high enough key and it's a wipe
Anyway they said its a resil key so they wanted to run it again and kicked me, so good luck to them on that
they griefed you take the loss and go next
I’ve been trying to get this Arakara timed for like 3 tries now and it just keeps failing on first boss. Every single time I have to try and kite boss away because the dps or healer lets them get too close
the thing is if they stayed on the right side you will not have to move the boss at all until gossamer
adds cannot crit anymore and do not hurt that much
plus they can use cc to keep them at bay as well in order not to get meleed
adds havent been able to crit for about a decade
Be proactive and make a macro to type out "hard focus adds please" before you pull the boss
I've been tanking it fairly close to the eggs and throwing my stun hammer at them. Sometimes you can even shockwave them. If the group all goes to them they die in like 20sec?
Look at this beautiful screenshot I took 3 seconds after the adds spawned
I then pull the adds away so the hunter and healer are on the other side of the boss, and the hunter moves again to be on the wrong side
Dps only know zug zug
You should probably know boss mechanics before you attempt a key tho
damn what is going on with the alpha lol servers are just never up
its so annoying cause its such an easy mechanic
What is the haste cap again ?
Yeah man AK is misery, there's like 5 spicy points where shit can go wrong in pugland where most dungeons only really have 1-2 points
the first boss is probably the least / least consistently understood of all the dungeon bosses this season
Which...I kind of get, intuitively it feels like for a boss to munch something that the spiders should tether and be drawn into the boss, but flavorfully that doesn't make as much sense as the spiders going to players, its just kind of awkward all around
i had a dps fail this in week 1 of the season, blame the rest of the group and tell me to get cancer
some dps just dont understand the fixate on that fight
To fish for rings in vault open as prot still?
I just don't understand what's not to understand, the focus icon has been the same for like a decade
If you kite its hitbox into the boss' hitbox it will get eaten, and then probably eat everyone else's too, so just don't?
Yeah it chain eats them all lol
Someone always does, though
You really can't win as a pug tank. If you tank it away someone gets mad that you arent cleaving, if you tank it near the adds someone always gets their add munched
And somehow it's always your fault
I think I’ve read on here you want to aim between 22k-26k rating and ignore %
Diminishing returns is useless to look at
Doesn't rly matter tbh. I get auto invited as a tank to keys so if it bricks, I just go next
I just tank it close and don't move, even if someone is out of position
And I'll just spam ping whoever is out of position
If someone is giga out of position like guaranteed fail out of position at least try to salvage it
Nah, then theyll never learn
We have robot man to tell us what to use
Thinking is for mages
Robot says 40/20/20/20 split is ideal for dps
I think we have what 55k ish secondary at 720
Which means 22k haste, but 22k is low for itf and makes sb gaps
I think 26k haste then >literally any other configuration of secondaries here it doesn't matter and won't meaningfully change your dps unless you're a perfect player and you aren't< is ideal
22-24k haste seems fine
yknow what's not fine
getting into groups on my rogue
400 rio above the groups I'm applying to
declined
Rogue is that class that always sticks out to me remembering bad times with them
Show proof
That’s exactly what a serial bad time provider (tm) would say
Or a prostitute
Or a clown that performs at kids parties
What spec rogue are you
I had a really good experience with an outlaw rogue
Kinda learned the other day that they're good to just always be in combat
he said "its good for the game"
kinda similar to my stance
and then now hes getting picked on by the professional chat doomers
there was one dude yesterday on growl's stream that was 24/7 dooming about it against the growl and apparently the day before he was on dorki's doing the same thing lmao
thats not being "passionate", thats just being obsessive
sin
nah dawg
i kind of appreciate the discussion in here a lot more seeing those things lol
luxthos alt+f4d apparently lol
People are being a bit dramatic
Add-ons are without a doubt the biggest hurdle for getting started in this game, they did a banguo job with the rotation helper, and less recently the built in... Decursive? Was it? Casting feature
There's gonna be some issues but in pretty hopeful it'll make the entry barrier for gaming less restrictive
I'm dooming but it's simply because I feel the game will be less fun for me if they don't walk back some things
and I want the game I enjoy to keep being as fun as it currently is, not less
thats fine at least you contribute
ideas
i mean look at the post its kinda the same thing you suggested
yea I saw it
I just hope they realise that that alone is 95% of what they needed to do to kill WA's solving mechanics
so they can add back in more of the fun stuff I like about WAs like tracking my own stuff and customisation, etc

mythical also suggested something similar
Imagine playing fury slayer without something that goes ding
i mean you dont need it cause jugg is gone
slayer execute?
I'm way more excited about the arms updates tbh but I may have forgotten that part
rest in piss
But I get the point with the dings
yeah I use it
what I think about that though is like
If blizz are gonna implement mechanics that require some complex tracking, they need to also implement a UI element for that thing
right
but all you get is your bars + glows and your resource
thats why they are removing them completely
I guess there's some HUD things
So if the base UI had tracking functionality that enabled more complex interactions baseline
but not in DF/TWW
the requirement of WA would be less
yeah I hate jugg lmao
anyone ran into the password bug on streets yet? just hit it for the first time there now - so tiliting when the dungeon has been going well
Swap to sub and double your invites easy
Then I'd have to learn sub

Never and I've done streets like 100x
nice
probably run number 30 or so for me first time ive seen it
apparently it was 'fixed' a while back and then it rared its head again - must be a super low chance of happening
what password bug
basically you do the RP, they give you the password and its just not one of the options to select
nothing you can do to fix it in the key, at least that anyone has found
so its just bricked you cant get in to the boss
theres a few forum posts about it
apparently was a thing back in SL too
Interesting. First time I'm hearing about it and I played SL too
so the dialogue is just not updating then
because prior to completing the event, the correct password isn't in the list (or even options resembling the correct password options)
I've had a bunch of bugs in streets, just not that one. Not surprising
yeah, ive heard a few theories like it can happen if someone has the dialogue open before the password is announced, or if its open in combat
but who knows
didnt you ask this yesterday
yea and I can't figure what the hell the ring is lmao
beautiful ty
At what point gear / set wise, should I switch from colossus to thane, I'm doing mythic+ exclusively, i was told to start colossus while i gear. i currently sit at 698 with 2 set pices
When you have 4pc
thank you
Big gratis
gzz
Time for 6m DPS?
one day... 
Lol imagine not having?
Hero or myth though
i dont think roid does hunters on myth on his warrior but i could be wrong
🤷♂️
thats no buffs on %'s
hast is around 24-25k
and then whatever the clanker tells you to gear
Is the caster extra boss in prio the one that do least dmg when you take her with the boss 
yeah it's less damage.... if your team kicks
Seen the macro using shieldslam & ignore pain in the same button, I'm using it on ignore pain button - but noticed that majority of my violent outbursts going into shield slam instead of thunderblasts on AoE 🤔 Is it the play or just use them as two seperate buttons?
Do you think this is because of the IP macro or general not pressing Thunderblast enough?
outside of buffed TB on 2 or more targets it really doesnt matter if u send it on SS
TB without the buff doesnt really do much and u miss the rage gen from SS with translates to more damage and hits really hard

idk, just spamming IP and SS claims the proc most of the time, aoe and st. It feels good on ST, but on AoE pulls it is almost always slamming down SS onto AoE. Feels like 80%+ of violent outburst procs get yoinked by SS whilst the rest are procced from revenge or shield block where I can somewhat control it.
Not too sure if it's better to slam dunk the IP/SS macro where my SS is increase of where IP located
Never, ever put that macro on you SS bind. You will rage starve yourself so fast.
Just watch your VO tracker and plan your casts 2 goals out. Easy enough to do
0% wipe on Mythic frac 😢
Missing 6 of our main raiders too it dies easy next week lol
Which spec are we playing for push keys
mountain thane
idk feels weird because my finger starts to hurt and the IP disappears in 0.5 secs in keys
So trying to figure out what's the most somewhat efficient whilst still doing alright-ish damage
IP isnt an important source of mitigation for you to track. You press it when your next spender would overcap you on rage. Thats the only time
i keep seeing the news that weakaura will be gone in midnight, what will replace it ?
at least my class weakaura
I went to look at it last night and was super confused because you have to enable it in two different places for it to be enabled for some stupid reason
boys and girls i got smashed hard in a 12 streets by the bazaar packs. is there some mechanic i'm missing?
The more henchmen, the harder they hit. The big lad debuffs you and there are some other bells and whistles
basically, on spawn - pop CDs, as you gonna get slapped around
once things start to die, danger has passed
i didn't have a charge of shield wall and i think i'll have to make sure i save one for that pack
the 1 overseer/2 strongarm/5 lackey pack is one full pull though right?
That area can hurt, I almost fell in a 14 last night on the last pull - my group rushed it a bit and we still had the first overseer up when the last one spawned in
But ideally you want shield wall up for when those overseers are up - everything else in that area should be easy pickings
Go and grab the first overseer when starting the RP and try to get it down before tanking the last pack if the RP - 2 of them is bad news
ty appreciate you
Do you actually sim Tank Specs such as BDK and Prot Warr?
Yes
Isnt reality a bit more nuanced than just looking for the best damage?
Not really
Tanks survive by gameplay, not stats
So stat-wise you just go for the most damage
There are some exceptions, like for us, you need 21k haste or more to be able to run a talent that gives more damage, but sims won't account for that.
They'll just tell you to the run the talent, and probably tell you to go for non-haste stats before that point
Okay but that is a particular case, so in general you actually just go for max dmg?
Yes
That explains why in guides ilvl goes above all stats and the stats are equal too
Correct. We have "better" stats, but generally more is better than specific ones.
Which talent is this?
into the fray
it can track buffs too ? if so i wouldnt have an issue
it's actually mostly the strongarms
they deal extra magic damage with each hit
this is my whole dtps in an 18 streets in the bazaar with pulling several peacekeeprs extra from the middle
just the extra magic dmg from the strongarms was 25% of the dmg i took and that's with rotating defensives
need to rotate your stuff when they're up, especially in the last pack
SR works very well there, fully reflects one hit and then you get to enjoy 25% dr
I have a question about simming and ITF
Can you do a help
just ask the question
I can do a help
oh I have a question too actually
I saw nim mentioning setting minimum haste for gear on raidbots
how the frick do I do that
idk, sounds like something you'd have to put either in your simc input or in the expert sim mode
that's above my paygrade
So if I’m rocking ITF and a sim wants me to change out gear that would make me swap to HR, what’s the easiest way to handle that
Just do a sim with that gear and hr and a second sim with the other set and itf?
If a sim makes you drop enough haste that you need to swap to HR, it's not an upgrade.
There's not a piece of gear that would give enough bonus through stats that it would be worth the loss of ItF, not even close
:(
Is there an option I haven’t seen where you can set a stat and lock it in place?
Like “I don’t want to drop below 25k haste”
Apparently it's something you can do; that's what yam is talking about. But it's not a built-in option that I'm aware of so it has to be an expert sim or some adjustment to your simc input.
Yam did you figure it out
a while ago i asked you about my death at Big momma. everyone checked log and not a single person told me i was using a leather waist xD
Gear isn't something that would ever contribute to whether you died to something. I never look at someone's gear when doing a log review
no
I was reliant on weakauras for Stormbringer Shaman because it literally didn't track progress on tempest at all in the base UI
I actually think it still doesn't
exactly lol
thanks god i was afk at priory's entrance and someone made fun of me. i would never have noticed
with that + 5% primary i lost due to no plate gear, i am doing 400k more damge in dungeons aprx
maybe more i dont know, groups damage was kinda low
whats the best trinket combo for prot right now? Currently have ire and tome on but I have seaforium and antenna as options
Antenna and Ire for keys. Then I usually swap out ire for tome for raid bosses.
what's haste as stat value
attack speed
940
20,740
if u run HR you should be fine
HR?
gotcha
thank you for info
what should my haste be at?
to run into the fray @mellow yoke
42%ish?
21-25k
Wherever you feel comfortable keeping shield block up
I would not run heavy repercussions at 20740, I’d just move some stuff around to get like 1000 more haste
because having the 8% constantly in a dungeon would be more beneficial then yeah?
@frosty mango
shield block always caps out at 8% right, it cant go over that even with heavy repercussions?
sorry if i'm asking too many questions 😬
You’re close enough that it’s probably feasible to move enchants etc around to get a little more haste
8 seconds I mean
Which at that point in the fray would be a sizable dps bump
Shield block can go up to 3x duration
would sacrificing vers for haste enchants be bad?
No not if it enables you to run in the fray
Are you enchanted vers at 20k haste?
You shouldn’t be
yeah was just judging it off multiple other warriors stats
most seem to be around 20% vers
or higher
im only at 16.85
There is no value you aim for
Get your haste to 22-25k (wherever you see shield block is staying up) and then sim your char with haste locked there
And equip whatever provides the most dps
All substats are good substats
okay, thank you so much for the help
If you post on help and log review with a log and a sim string someone can provide a lot more detailed info
im also running a combo of deadly emerald and quick rubys maybe just all deadly emeralds for now
?
id be over 22k then
I just run alchemical chaos, maybe just use haste flask?
Tbh I would just throw on a haste flask, play into the fray, and not futz with gear
Then revisit as you continue to gear
That would be my approach, but depending on what gear you have in bags it may not be strictly speaking optimal
I do recommend you run the sims
for most damage output?
Damage = defense
got it
Every stat provides defensive value as well
with flask im at 24,195
ill need to learn how to sim prot because its telling me to run tome and seaforium for trinkets 😆
Tome is good for st
Hate to tell you this, but you don't gain 5% strength from wearing all plate. Tanks gain stamina from that effect.
But he gained 400k DPS 
Placebo effect kinda crazy huh
I mean depending on which trinkets you have available
Those very well may be the best
Both are those are very good for prot
can anyone help me figure out why i got a 0% healing parse for this key and how i can improve?
Step 1. Stop caring about healing parses.
why do you care about that?
like, why do peopl even look at healing. You're a tank
You didn't die
We don't heal to survive. We avoid the damage in the first place.
Hold up
You screenshot that passive right now
My life
is a lie
Oh no, not you too Funky
taking this talent will increase surivibility
😭
Nah, it's the healing Jakey
huge
Healing parse doesn't mean anything though
more worried im not doing something rotational correct. not the parse itself
utake shield spec
casts seem fine, coulda executed more prob
but yeah please take shield spec
you procced BSV once in the entire dungeon, literally basically useless
i mean Bloodbounre is useless
By all means, use BSV if you want to, but dropping shield spec for it is asinine.
hes taking no execute talents
and is completely contradictory
so hes choose bloodbourne over shield spec
which is like 1% damage
to take 16% mroe damage against blockable attack

Not if you going for healing logs, ya fool
because it doesn't care if you actually drop to 30%
BSV procs when it wants to proc
never has
its like Purgatory for BDK, once in a while, it just procs while you at 100% health, for funsies
ezpz
what a stupid ass talent
Its a very good talent, that we never complained about, nor send bug reports or suggestions about
Not even once
I love how like
You rarely end up in enough danger to proc it
so it just procs for no reason

cause the DR gets applied to the hit that would ahve taking u below 30%

Purgatory doesn't kill you. It's still saving you when it does that, because if it wasn't talented, you would've just died.
It prevents the damage that killed you and makes it a healing absorb instead
If Purgatory procs with the "overkilled" condition, you just die
and yep, it does that
Havent seen it this season tho, when I think about it
Maybe it fixed
one can hope
“Why would I take a defensive talent if I don’t have trouble living”
70% sb uptime
No shield wall usages
Overstressed healers
i mean your wrong on the shield block
but yes that is common
I'm not bashing
everytime
I'm just surprised
I was memeing
About people who argue shield spec is not needed
Yeah Roid was just memeing on the common statement, not that guy haha
well its not a meme, its very common, i used to and still do give feedback without looking at logs
Yeah I hate this place buncha jerks
I dislike that I know ya right
I never expect people in 15s to do something like not press SW tho
I mean, have you done a 14?
yes
news flash, the top ppl do it too
Ya can wipe five times over, and still ++
HOW
everyone does it
My meme was basically every time someone takes a hard line and says “why do I need it if I’m not dying” and you go look at their logs and every time they’re like not using wall and not keeping up block and just become completely carried by the healer
based take cat
So better just let tank DPS good
Also rage baiting Jakey with no shield spec is almost a warrior past time now
Yep, it is true and actually honestly the optimal way to play
filter down effect everytime
Nah, it is not "carried", it is teamwork
When it comes to staying alive tbh yes
From a team perspective
Yoda isn't the top pwar; does he even play pwar lol
100% his healer is doing work
Ya guys just jelly that you dont have the trust and comfort of theirs
in those keys his healer would be doing work ither way
and healer is like "finally I get to play the game"
but in pugs you're like a terrorist
See, if healer already is healing, why does it matter if he gotta heal a tad more?
It really doesnt
would be overhealing either way
Better take the 2% haste, for faster kills
Kitty's rage baiting
I never do that
Are they running shield spec tho
Lier
In the top 10 pwar, 8 are chinese, 1 is kira, and 1 is Naowh
no they are running the exact build that guy was above

filter down baby
filter down
the choice of BB over shield spec makes 0 sense at all
It's like trickle down economics and it's just as stupid
Nah, you just dont get it
no because this actually happens
like its so close to nomes push build at thispoint
Bloodborne is key for optimal DPS and CD managment
1 point away 😭
Like I feel like I could run without it but I’m already doing 5-6m dps in push build how much damage could I POSSIBLY gain
About 2%
Not enough to be worth imo
less
Not at my level
Nah, 2.5%
Sims arent practial gameplay
would be less in ST
quick question. how big of a deal are the soul hunter boots? should i wear 704 version of those or craft boots
World of simulationcraft
no
Not at all, just buy the Mythic track ones from the AH, 150k gold
Ya all guys living in sims, the matrix
Real players play in the world of warcraft
Yogi is that you
Do I face my back to the enemy?
I feel like I haven't seen yogi in a bit
Just mention Doom, and he usually shows
doom is mid
They made the change he quit WoW over so he should come back now
hes quit wow like 50 times since SLs
Wasnt there a period where he quite like 2-3 times in a month?
Was during some doom drama and I think it was when Doom became a PNG
PNG?
yer he does that from time to time
Also sad that Nim isnt online, angry Rat in a hat is always fun
Come back to us yogi, they've done it
we dont need 2 master baiters in chat at a time
You don't have to be afraid anymore
u might still see WW tho
Yeah, we WW still there 
who told em
Maybe that's why he's still gone
Usually their friend, and some monk that used to be in here
The guy who was staple "you either #1 or last"
Little did they know, he was actually on the last side
I might have caused some stray fire unto nooblets with my
#1 DPS breakdowns tho 
You're ruining our lives
you need to bring back the 2hander keys

So on ptr I tried this lol
