Yes myth shield

mellow yoke
#

Heroic ire

jagged grove
mellow yoke
#

I mean

#

Unless you but

#

Buy

#

Myth boost

#

For 5th

jagged grove
#

Im just saying i want a myth piece and havent killed mythic soul and dont plan to buy the boost, so its kinda pointless to think of ire

mellow yoke
#

HC ire is still realllyyy good

lusty grotto
#

yup

mellow yoke
#

And u need the myth shield and 1H

lusty grotto
#

also yeah the uppy for crafted is 30 crests

jagged grove
mellow yoke
#

After shield

lusty grotto
jagged grove
#

i read online that 1 of the 2 dps warrior specs avoids 2 handers but gives 1h as oposed to the other that does give 2h

#

Wanted to know which is which to get the 1h

lusty grotto
#

why do you want that

mellow yoke
#

Wdym avoids 2 handers

lusty grotto
#

none of them avoid 2h

#

fury can get 1 handers, but thats it

jagged grove
#

Ok so the reddit post was just plain wrong

lusty grotto
#

but why would you want to dps loot spec

mellow yoke
#

U can play fury with single minded fury and 2 one handers

#

But its not the best

round pendant
#

nvm I guess rend does do a lot sometimes

lusty grotto
#

what i meant was fury get 1 handers in the vault and as loot drops

round pendant
#

my execute so low

lusty grotto
#

its available to them

jagged grove
lusty grotto
#

but again

#

yeah you shouldnt really fury unless you have all the trinkets

#

including ire

#

pacemaker/antenna are available to prot

#

so youre not losing anything

mellow yoke
#

Aka when u get 1H and ire change to dos

thin minnow
#

i'm currently using crafted 720 shield and 704 hero track crit haste glove. is there a world that i pick the glove over the shield and catalyze it? or would it be the shield 100%?

mellow yoke
#

Dps

lusty grotto
#

yeah pretty much

jagged grove
#

thx a lot for clarifying nimchip and sth random

grizzled nova
#

727 recrafted gear is bugged af rn

#

they don't count toward your character's ilvl and the stats aren't applying correctly

grizzled nova
#

Reshii wraps powers also aren't working it seems

lusty grotto
#

or just up to soulbinder?

thin minnow
#

i started killing loomi last week

lusty grotto
#

in pugs or in guild?

thin minnow
#

guild

lusty grotto
#

do you have prio on shield if it drops?

#

i.e. no other tanks, tank prio over healers etc

thin minnow
#

we've been just rolling on gears for now, but i guess if i ask for it, i should be able to get it. other tank is monk

warm plinth
#

Hello Nimchip, how are you my friend

lusty grotto
#

if youre consistently getting loomi killed, then you can probably grab gloves (granted they drop from soulbinder so idk), generally we would recommend picking up the shield though

lusty grotto
#

hbu

warm plinth
#

big. Just logged on to check vaults then probably making my remix toon

lusty grotto
#

same

#

but now im wondering if i should do fast keys

#

and cap rq

lean furnace
#

is myth weap always better than craft weap?

lusty grotto
#

instead of just remix

undone beacon
#

Only did 4 keys, rewarded anyways

lusty grotto
warm plinth
#

ez

lean furnace
warm plinth
#

My frost dk did 1 key week before last and I got myth pace

#

this week I think we get cursed stone idol, what do you think

undone beacon
#

I do like 1 key a week on my hunter and every week have gotten an upgrade

#

@lusty grotto Bear vault, chest it is

warm plinth
#

hmm, I got a signet, that's not bad

lusty grotto
#

my DH got 4 myth chests and a heroic sigil of the cosmic hunt... so hunt it is

jagged grove
#

Do we know how soon till dinars?

lusty grotto
#

21st

jagged grove
#

Got pacemaker but also got a 1h

jagged grove
lusty grotto
#

if you dont raid, grab pace

#

thats a dinar saved

jagged grove
lusty grotto
#

pugged...

#

youre more likely to get the 1h from a raid drop than an antenna

#

so

#

pacemaker until you can get an antenna

#

no reason to skip it on vault

#

and if you kill the first 3 you can dinar antenna anyway

#

as for the 1hander, youre more likely to get it on raid as i said, and from a future vault

sullen dust
#

Hey y'all, just got my GV and I'm unsure if I take the shoulders and cata them or myth sac

grizzled nova
#

like how in the fuck did they mess up recrafted items not working

warm plinth
#

They don't?

grizzled nova
#

no

warm plinth
#

Glad I did not just put up an order then XD

lusty grotto
#

how are they not working

grizzled nova
#

my 727 shield rn

warm plinth
#

huge

lusty grotto
#

huh

grizzled nova
#

they're behaving like 594 ilvl items

warm plinth
#

23.22%, massive DR keks

lusty grotto
#

what are you targetting

grizzled nova
#

nothing

warm plinth
#

should be much higher than that when targeting nothing

#

well, even targeting something it should

#

But definitely without

turbid belfry
#

ye crafted gear it just bugged xD, we need to wait

warm plinth
#

hm, probably not worth taking a myth belt from vault when I have embellish crafted belt huh? Will just end up recrafting the belt anyway

lusty grotto
#

yea

#

this is a 720 one btw

#

no recrafts nothing targetted

sullen dust
sullen dust
#

Damn didn't think crafted shield was that bad

tepid nacelle
#

Assuming bis stats on both what's the consensus on weapon vs chest upgrade

lusty grotto
#

weapon

grizzled nova
#

then it snaps down to 698

#

and my weapon/shield are not behaving correctly at all

azure crag
#

Oh hey, just in time for the turbo boost.

Goodbye, crafted shield.

warm plinth
# sullen dust Damn didn't think crafted shield was that bad

It's not. I'm not sure I agree that it's necessarily a bigger upgrade than the other two. But it is the only source of block value and you would have the best item (highest ilevel) in that slot. If you myth raid and can get shield there, do raid first then pick vault

sullen dust
#

I don't myth raid, I was for a bit but I stopped cause of work

warm plinth
#

Then I would take the shield

azure crag
#

now I need a new slot for my embellishment.

warm plinth
#

Well, best to hold off on crafting for now from what Thukker is saying

#

at least using the new matrix

azure crag
#

Oh, is something wrong with the new matrix?

solid sun
#

I hate naming my characters

#

Can't even remix because names are hard

grizzled nova
warm plinth
#

That's rough

#

How do you mess that up XD

lusty grotto
azure crag
#

I have no idea what to make for remix. I've already got a warrior, a death knight, AND a paladin.
No more beefy gals to put in heavy plate armor.
What do I even do now

grizzled nova
#

Play one of the plate classes for all the plate mog

Blizzard still hasn't nerfed stoneform, everything stays dwarf.

lusty grotto
#

ima send rhino an invite

grizzled nova
#

Honestly if stoneform makes it an entire nother expansion

#

that's hilarious

grizzled nova
#

they made meld pots but they're leaving stoneform in the game

warm plinth
#

meld pots are the biggest joke I swear lol

lusty grotto
#

i like em

grizzled nova
#

they're useful in eco and floodgate

warm plinth
#

I mean, they're nice but like...why

solid sun
#

I follow the KISS method a lot these days

warm plinth
#

They were perfectly fine nuking arcane torrent, but they draw the line at shadowmeld?

solid sun
#

So there are zero meld skips in my routes

#

Why is the chat box lettering so big

To make you ask questions ofc

grizzled nova
#

I'm not sure what kind of spaghetti blizzard is running but it looks like old layers were fucked and they spun up new ones that fix all the ilvl problems and as soon as you zone into one it all corrects

#

Thoughts on this vault?

gritty relic
#

Im torn between shoulders and sacbrood. I have a ire and champ track antenna, also champ track shoulders

prisma crane
#

way easier to get tier slots since you can cata

#

that said, sac does get outclassed

#

also

#

can consider shoulders since higher ilvl and saves crests 🙂

gritty relic
#

That's where I was leaning

prisma crane
#

yolo, shoulders, you wont replace them unless you somehow get tertiary on them

gritty relic
#

They have speed on them

prisma crane
#

the 714 do?

gritty relic
#

Yes

prisma crane
#

done

#

100p

#

speedy boi shoulders it is

#

speed is underrated imo

#

i feel like avoidance hasnt been real OP for tanks since Legion

lusty grotto
#

its not a feel

prisma crane
#

and leech is nice obv, but speed makes so many minor things smoother

lusty grotto
#

no tertiary is good

#

but yes we tend to prefer leech and speed

prisma crane
#

i miss when nearly all raid tank busters were an AOE and avoidance just did work

#

particularly agg and argus

round pendant
#

god

#

is the bomb soak on first boss supposed to be so CBT?

#

@lusty grotto help me

#

do I run to corner or leap to corner

lusty grotto

i dont know what youre asking

round pendant
#

for the bomb on plexus

lusty grotto
#

leap out cloak in

round pendant
#

so w key then cloak for wall

lusty grotto
#

no just cloak to get back to boss

#

after the bomb

#

it'll be up for wall, and if its not up you just wall

wall for wall, it doesnt kill you

Ah, I see. So Ky'veza is a battle of "I can't fucking see all this purple on purple"

topaz rivet

Are the three items levels from a myth track shield worth taking slightly worse stats (crit mastery) over a my haste crit crafted one?

warm plinth

stats on shield don't matter, just ilevel

someone laugh at my screenshot

😔

topaz rivet

cool cool. thanks

azure crag
#

Aaaaay, beat Ky'veza.
Just had to turn off her fucking name plate.
It was too big and distracting.

#

That fight is just 95% "Can you see through all this purple on purple"
And once you do, it's not hard.

#

I'm mad how simple that was.
Fight sucked.

welcome to the mage tower bear gang

Do you think
They'll revert it...
Cause it was a bad move to not let people get the old mage tower skins

and it would be

hey, does anyone have a WA to report spell reflect damage? i have the good one to show me when to reflect, but it can be easy to lose actual reflect amounts in all the clutter. is there anything to report it more clearly? i want my dopamine from the big reflects

but when they get fixed, obviously shield first

the result has less stats than they are supposed to have

I was very annoyed that that was all it really took to win.
feels like I was fighting the lack of contrast in the fight more than anything

fathom oasis
#

i hated when daggers spawned 1 ft away and you were kinda doomed to die, as well as when she summons the clones you need to look at, on top of one another

#

the intermission was also very annoying

azure crag
#

For the intermission, I turned my hud off entirely with alt+z and stared at the center of the moving ring, watching her move with my peripheral vision. It's the same way I delt with the cups/totems mechanic from Neltharion's lair back in Legion.

#

I find if I try to follow her directly, it's easy to get mixed up

#

What kept getting ME was her stupid clone summoning attack, cause they blend into all the other purples going on.
For her dagger, I figured if I strafing either left or right once they started, things tended to work out fine. It was only if I was holding still once they started that they'd get me.

#

It is a bad fight in my opinion. Not hard. Just extremely punishing, with the main challenge being "can you find all the purple effects going on in this purple room?"
She doesn't hit very hard outside of that, at least not in current gear. Brann occasionally fucking up the portal placements was annoying, but once I accounted for him sometimes screwing things up, that stopped being an issue.

week uhh what number of hunters not dropping brand

pearl zinc
#

my warrior adventure begins @strong forum

#

look atr my cool tech i made

pearl zinc
#

its the same as immo aura nad spikes right?

jade forge
#

what should i choose?

dry skiff
#

just what the hell is this 705 ilvl parse at sentinel

fallow fern
#

already have myth chest and the trink is trash.. have champion boots from raid that empower cloak.. would myth boots be better than the raid boots? are raid boots even that good for prot?

shut summit
wanton mantle
#

did they fixed the crafting bug?

dry skiff
#

is there a reason i seen some top parses not using shield charge even while talented ? they jsut use the normal charge, i forgot the name

shut summit
#

shield charge doesnt show in logs unless its cast from range for w/e reason

#

the damage will be there but doesnt show in casts

dry skiff
#

does it show as normal charge ? because i see them starting the boss with it

shut summit
#

no

dry skiff
#

ummmmmm. i just noticed one thing and it could be a visual bug. i see them using charge Twice in half a second

shut summit
#

that is just how it works

idle mesa
#

anyone know when EU servers will be up

grave sorrel
#

hey guys mythic shield from vault is always the pick right?

#

i have also mythic pacemaker in the vault (currently have a heroic one already)

dry skiff
#

you can buy mythic pacemaker in two weeks

#

or 3, not sure

lusty grotto
#

pick pace

grave sorrel
#

ah didnt think of the dinar part

#

shield it is

lusty grotto
#

myth shield is always the pick sure, but myth pace you cannot farm

#

and it saves you a dinar

#

myth track trinkets that only drop from M+ are almost always higher prio picks

#

since you cannot weekly farm them like raid trinkets

grave sorrel
#

ah ok - guess i can give up a slight ilvl on shield

lusty grotto
#

for now

#

there are ways of getting myth shields other than vault

#

myth loomi and deathless runs

grave sorrel
#

or - pray again for next GV lol

#

i dont raid, but thanks for sharing the loomi/deathless suggestion

idle mesa
#

So I only pug first 2 mythic, plex and soulbinder, but i got loot from loomithar? I thought I had to kill loom to get loot from it no? so I can actually use dinar to get antenna?

dry skiff
#

i get bunch of thunderblasts, i know which ones i get from activating avatar and which ones i get from Shield slam. i dont think i remember getting it from ionizing strike, i'm sure i have but i need to know when to use it with severe thunder

#

i there a way to figure this out easily

lusty grotto
idle mesa
lusty grotto
#

no

#

you need to kill it

idle mesa
#

ah

lusty grotto
#

it only extends to the vault

thats it

aa thank you

pulsar epoch

guys should i pick this or 6 token for head slot ? i got hero soleah-brand rn

lusty grotto
#

why are you opening on dps loot spec

#

do you already have myth weapon and shield?

pulsar epoch
#

yes

#

need antenna

lusty grotto
#

antenna drops for prot loot spec

pulsar epoch
#

well prot has tank trinkets too i dont want them

lusty grotto
#

the only two trinkets that dont are that one you posted a pic of, and screams

#

oh well

#

its a decent trinket for prot, but its mostly ST

#

tome blows it away anyway

pulsar epoch
#

hero tome ?

lusty grotto
#

sim angle

#

but let me check

pulsar epoch
#

appreciate

lusty grotto
#

yeah hero tome fucks it

pulsar epoch

here comes the 6 token oh boy

we still capped crest right though item lvl increased

werent they supposed to remove cap this week ?

tribal rover

Need some advice. While mythic raiding I am having a problem ripping off the other tank. They say it’s a problem I need to fix. The other tank is a Druid and slightly above my gear level. I’m currently 718. Is there a problem with druids holding aggro or am I doing something wrong?

lusty grotto
#

do you have logs

#

and how are his parses

tribal rover
#

On my phone now

lusty grotto
#

if hes a grey/green andy.... thats his problem

tribal rover
#

His parses are green I usually parse 80 and up

lusty grotto
#

yeah

#

bad tank

woeful ore
#

Have the same issue with my paladin co-tank

lusty grotto
#

they need to press buttons and/or play dotc

woeful ore
#

His parses are kinda smelly

lusty grotto
#

tl;dr they fucking suck

tribal rover
#

My bleeds will rip off him sometimes even when I stop attacking

lusty grotto
#

you dont need to fix anything

#

they do

tribal rover
#

I don’t want to just stand there and taunt it’s frustrating

pulsar epoch
#

tell him to play aggresive

woeful ore
#

I mean... you kinda do need to fix anything. Even though it's not your fault, it's still (partly) your problem

tribal rover
#

That’s what I thought

woeful ore
#

No progress = problem for everyone

lusty grotto
#

either the other tank mans up, or look for another guild, they fucking stink

tribal rover
#

It’s my problem I’m tank lead so I gotta figure it out. I know I can fix it but feel like if I reduce what I’m doing it’s just enabling the actual problem

lusty grotto
#

if youre the tank lead, how are they telling you that its your problem?

pulsar epoch
#

parsing low with a tank is preety hard actually

tribal rover
#

Long story and it’s a great group of guys.

woeful ore
#

What I try to do is, if possible, focus priority adds when not actively tanking boss (if there are any). Helps on Araz and Soulbinder at least

lusty grotto
#

we're not talking about parsing

pulsar epoch
#

oh right

tribal rover
#

Combiner is where it’s a problem because of the stacks

#

Soulbinder

lusty grotto
#

i asked about parse numbers simply because it gives you an idea if they are afk or 1 button rotation-ing

#

or just plain bad

#

if youre the tank lead, get a better 2nd tank

#

that guy isnt worth

tribal rover
#

If I was at my pc I’d gladly show you. Just got off

#

Yeah it’s something we are working on for the last few bosses in mythic

woeful ore
#

One idea could be to ask a hunter to misdirect on your cooldowns lol

lusty grotto
#

bro

#

how about

woeful ore
#

misdirect to him, that is

lusty grotto
#

instead of making all of these gymnastics

#

you just get a better 2nd tank

tribal rover
#

What do you guys have for your haste crit? I’m at 23k haste and 21500 for crit without flasks

lusty grotto
#

this aint complicated

#

youre doing myth raid

#

get capable people

tribal rover
#

Yeah I don’t disagree

woeful ore
#

well good tanks don't exactly grow on trees. Plus, we're a Danish guild, so even fewer to choose from

lusty grotto
#

who asked about your guild

#

i thought we were talking about the other dude's problem

tribal rover
#

🤣

woeful ore
tribal rover
#

Yikes and that works ok?

lusty grotto
#

also stat breakdowns are irrelevant

woeful ore
lusty grotto
#

whatever sims highest is what works

tribal rover
lusty grotto
#

do you know how many of us here in this channel raid as dps?

#

hell, its very likely someone on both of your guilds is dps but is a tank main for everything else

#

and even if there wasn't

#

thats what recruitment is for

tribal rover
#

I only play one class per season I’m to old and if I play to many classes I would be mediocre

lusty grotto
#

im very likely older than you

tribal rover
#

I used to play all kinds of shit but I’m slowing down 🤣

lusty grotto
#

are you 40?

tribal rover
#

I’m 51

#

1974

lusty grotto
#

ok youre def older

tribal rover
#

🤣

lusty grotto
#

dont get a lot of those every day

tribal rover
#

Yeah but I love gaming.

lusty grotto
#

anyway that's beside the point

tribal rover
#

I’ll do it when I’m 70

#

Yeah

#

Well thanks for the advice much appreciated

lusty grotto
#

dont acommodate bad players

tribal rover
#

I agree

lusty grotto
#

replace em asap

#

they are holding everyone back

#

you only give chances to players that you see are improving and worrying about it

tribal rover
#

Thanks

woeful ore
#

In other news, can any of you explain to me why Ritual forge is so damn good for everyone and their mum, except tanks? I get that it ticks 15% of max hp, but with that insane amount of main stat, is that not worth it tho? Got forge and Ring of the Panoply in vault, and I'm trying to make sense of it

lusty grotto
#

burst is not important for tanks

#

it is important for dps in keys though

#

pulls and routes are made for it

#

but i mean

#

you can take it i guess

#

there are just much better trinkets for us

woeful ore
#

the 2 minute cd is kind of a whack timing I suppose

lusty grotto
#

yeah it is

woeful ore
#

I have hero stone idol and hero tome. Guess I'll sim against those. Saw one guy mentioning that hero tome simmed higher for him

lusty grotto
#

we're not a 2min class

#

we're a 90s class

woeful ore
#

True. And i mean... Panoply is just a plain good ring

lusty grotto
#

i hope you mean myth tracks

woeful ore
#

No my stone idol and tome are hero. Got myth sacbrood and that soulbinder tank trinket in myth as the only ones

lusty grotto
#

okay...

#

but

#

you said ritual forge

woeful ore
#

Ah, ritual forge is myth from vault yes

lusty grotto
#

first of all

#

idol is only good in aoe

#

so it will lose to anything at ST

#

second of all

#

tome blasts everything in ST, but it aoe... it drops down a few, not to the floor but it does

#

im just wondering why youre using a hero idol over a myth sacrbood

woeful ore
#

Yea I run sacbrood as a stable, and then idol for m+, tome for raid atm

lusty grotto
#

or a hero tome over a myth sacbrood

#

ok

#

gotcha

#

idk i wouldnt pick a 2min trinket

#

both ritual and shitnet of the priory are low on our rankings simply because of it

woeful ore
#

Nah it honestly sounds like a nightmare to play around, even if it would outperform my current trinkets

lusty grotto
#

and by low... i mean b tier

woeful ore
#

I'll sim it, but propably gonna go with the ring in any case. thanks for the advice

vale escarp
#

hey guys got tome and a shield myth shild already, I should go for fury loot to still get 1hand weapon but no more tank trinket?

lusty grotto
#

do you have brand

vale escarp
#

got it from normal raid and wont raid mythic, still wanna farm it on hc but dont wanna waste a vault for it

lusty grotto
#

you should

vale escarp
#

should open as fury or waste vault for heroic brand chance?

lusty grotto
#

its absolutely not a fucking waste to get brand

#

far from it

#

so stop saying its a waste

vale escarp
#

but got normal brand already and still need 1hand weapon and only got 1 raidslot since I only kill 2 bosses from hc since there is no real loot I need from it exept brand

lusty grotto
#

normal brand aint heroic brand

sharp merlin
#

Forgive me for asking this, but taking into account interrupts, is DK / Pres / Mage / Warlock enough to kick 2 constant casters and a 3rd in a pack?

#

As in should the split be, me and the dk take one caster each?

#

and then split the other two range on each caster,, and use healer's kick as last resort?

kindred turret
#

Sword with Crit/Haste (already got crafted) or Ritual Mud (got Pacemaker hc and Antenna nhc)

Got Resil 12+, so could buy Myth-Trinkets via Cartel-Chips or whatever they will be called

wild widget
#

Can I trust a sim comparing Myth track seaforium vs Hero track antenna, or do I just go for ilvl ? In a pushing m+ context

kindred turret
#

Thought the same, thx

tender thistle
#

Tome of Light's Devotion > seaforium? see some people say this but im in doubt

torpid dome
#

But tome is great for raid and bossfights

tender thistle
#

alright so general m+ keys pacemaker better

#

big difference or not so much?

torpid dome
#

Pacemaker would be better

fathom oasis
#

If you dont raid you can kinda skip tome

torpid dome
#

Yep

#

Dont get me wrong, still great trinket in dungeons

#

The prio damage can rly help getting big mobs down faster

tender thistle
#

alright, last question. would a 8/8 myth version be better than a 710 hero seaforium?

#

i imagine so right?

frank surge
#

any input on myth sacbrood vs norm brand for m+? Im thinking ill get myth brand when the coin stuff is in the game

torpid dome
tender thistle
#

kk then i'll do that 🙂 thanks lad

torpid dome
#

I think you can only get myth brand when you have killed myth soul eaters

fathom oasis
#

Indeed

torpid dome
#

So as you dont seem to be raiding, dont think thats an option for you

frank surge
#

i would be attempting to go clear the necessary bosses to buy it yea

fathom oasis
#

It's the second to last myth boss

frank surge
#

but if thats deemed too hard even with the ilvl creep ppl will have by then maybe i should get sac

torpid dome
frank surge
#

okay thanks

torpid dome
#

But, you can get heroic brand by just tanking hero raids

#

If you have aotc you should pretty much get it on weekly farm for hero brand

#

On your screen, I would 100% take the helmet

frank surge
#

cheers for the input

#

dumb q whats aotc

torpid dome
#

Achievement you get for clearing heroic raid

#

During the season

frank surge
#

ahh ye no i aint

#

i cleared norm week1 then did nothing

torpid dome
#

At this point in the season that might limit your options a bit as a PUG

frank surge
#

ye i would guess but im just playing casually at the end of the day so maybe ill get myth tome for the coins instead then eventho brand is bricked

#

when it opens for that

#

and run it with my myth seaf

torpid dome
#

If you are running +12s

frank surge
#

we are ye

torpid dome
#

I would really try to muscle myself to get heroic raid done

dawn turret

Only recently started tanking, been using Mountain thane builds for raid and mythics, purely because icyveins said so. Anyone got good pro and cons for using colossus over thane? Currently doing keys in the 12-14 range.

torpid dome
#

And by doing it you unlock hc brand from vendor

#

Hi there, is there something like a soft cap crit to aim before getting versa please ?

jagged pier

when sims tell u

jade valve

aight, nothing to see about parry from crit so ?

i ran the execute dps build in a 16 arakara by accident and i didnt even drop low the whole run. can i just keep this build forever? or when do things start hurting too much?

Yo warrior slaps

#

I’m glad I did this

modest star
#

oof to upgrade to myth track wep or myth track tome as an m+ player, any input?

hard wolf
#

so I haven't played in the previous season with the turboboost so maybe this is a noob question but aren't the crafting items getting a boost in the ilvl too?

bleak scaffold
#

Yes, you need to recraft and add a new item that you can purchase to the same vendor that sells the crest

bleak scaffold
#

Myth tome over weapon, the boss has spoken :x

torpid dome
#

For me, I just do defensive build when 13+, just in case. Tank accidentally dying costs more time than what it gains

torpid dome
#

Vendor opens up in a few weeks, and on M+ you dont really use tome

torpid dome
#

I think either choice could be fine at least

bleak scaffold
#

Depends on the level of keys you play 🙂

torpid dome
#

For tome you mean?

#

Afaik across all keys brand + pacemaker or antenna ia mostly chosen

modest star
#

i only play m+, i dont raid at all, wep better u guys think then?

#

i know the wep sims better, i just thought maybe the defensive side of tome is worth considering

bleak scaffold
#

What key level are you doing ? if you are running, or in progress on 12, you'll be able to buy Myth Tome in 2 weeks

modest star
#

around 13 atm, going for like 16

bleak scaffold
#

or higher than 12 ^^

torpid dome
#

You pick it for the priority damage

bleak scaffold
#

Yes so take weapon, myth tom you'll be able to buy it with cartel in 2 weeks, if you don't do raid at all you are not going to use any chip on that

bleak scaffold
#

Yes in 2 weeks

modest star
#

allright, thanks

torpid dome
bleak scaffold
#

Along with crest cap removal

#

Sometimes we'd like to have simple vaults, just ONE item that pops out so it's easy to select 😄

#

And also to avoid getting 1 vault with 2 BIS and then a vault with nothing :x

fathom oasis
#

Can only get tome from vault

#

If you are a raider, the point stands, mostly

Sure, that's why I asked, he's not raiding 🙂

hc tome or myth antenna hmm danderson

mint knot
#

hello gentlemen, how much ~haste rating do we need for optimal shield block uptime in m+? simC is asking me for loads of mastery at this point

mint knot
# dawn turret Only recently started tanking, been using Mountain thane builds for raid and myt...

My experience with it - colossus pros: bigger dam in big aoe pulls, viable PSF/Arak/FL, fueled by violence healing, better mob control with shockwave knock up, shield wall on avatar press. Cons: garbage ST, lower or comparable dps in 3-5t, cannot play spear you're locked in double roar, felt significantly squishier in high keys, locks you in improved shockwave, establishing aggro in some packs is a massive pain in the ass, also requires slightly different gear as colossus is very crit heavy and if you drop versa you will be even more vulnerable to magic damage. Too many cons to be worth the time

#

In ~3/8 dungeons you can do a bit more overall damage than thane, while sweating more and arguably it won't even be better than thane for the timer. The few seconds you'll gain the team by playing colossus in some trash packs will be lost by doing way less damage in single target. So despite looking a bit better on details in those 3 dungeons, you'll actually have around the same timer, but with added risk/effort.

#

Anyone got an indestructible shield?

fathom oasis
#

Max is about 28k or so

#

Sweet spot depends on who you ask, but around 26-27k is what most people consider comfy

mint knot
#

Hmmm, at 21k I’d drop it only 1-1.5s about 3-4 times per dungeon, and only in extended pulls or chains

#

26-27k seems overkill, losing out on both dps and beefiness

#

Cheers, I’ll stick to 21

frosty mango
#

Danger level rises as key level rises

#

Dropping shield block for a few seconds in a 13/14 is probably not gonna cause your death

#

In a 17/18/19 it very well could

#

So it really depends on your personal comfort level in the context of the content you’re running

Anyone happen to have the macro for the big reflect icon in chat for spell reflect?

21k is only the minimum for ITF, youre not supposed to stay there

Into the fray

lusty grotto
#

dont stay at 21k then

#

one gap and you're dead

#

you keep going as high as you can until you can eliminate notable gaps

#

you want to only stop after 27k

#

the more haste you have the better ITF is anyway

#

for both rage gain and dps

mint knot
#

Well my conundrum stems from the fact that starting from 20-21k haste and 15-17k versa then crit and mastery take over by a lot in dps gain both ST and aoe

lusty grotto
#

why so much versa

#

when crit should be higher

#

and mastery is not bad, i see you ghash

I have 21k haste 16k versa 15k crit 7k mastery

do it ghash

then dont run ITF
