i didnt know kanga wasnt above lying
you ain't seen it
dwarves unfortunately have the best totem appearance by far and it's not even close
i did pick my shaman race specifically based on totem
jk i picked it because stoneform is OP as hell
But yeah if you want to learn bear its not that hard, Dreagrove.gg is a reliable guide for all druid specs, theres always wowhead and icyveins, etc
i mean idk
are they nerfing stoneform in midnight or is it going to continue to be really op
but really its just spam mangle+thrash on CD, spam ironfur, fill with swipe/moonfire
I hate waddling
like i tried vdh in lemix
and
leap and slam
leap and slam
backflip
double jump
you don't want to double jump while actively tanking
Use a mount idiot
erm
anyway how long does it take to get to mage tower from lemix
:smh
i know like
SEVEN people
with your personality
and theyre all on estrogen
how are you such a bad take farmer
i don't think you know anything about my personality
i know its mean
nimchip is mean. i'm chill i just hate you specifically
oh

do race changes ever go on sale
can i just buy like 10 of them during christmas
and save
you have to stop having bad takes
Also if your dumb ass thinks warrior is slow what do you think bear is
bear is the slowest tank in the game by a lot
doesnt bear get two charges of charge
no
oh
Bear charge is optional
Your interrupt has a charge on it I guess, if you want to count that
13 yard range baybee
ranged interrupt must be nice
It is not a ranged interrupt
but then i cant say "sorry i play warrior i cant kick adds :)" in m_
oh
The best part about bear is moonfire is gods greatest pulling tool. 40-45yd range, dont have to face the target, plus no shield so you can take more backshots than normal
Yeah not a ranged kick
and if you press it outside of 13 yds you don't get it off
unless you have to
Throw weapon doesnt leave a dot to generate aggro, and you have to face your target, and its not that great in general
i press it for pulling
Waiter waiter i want titanic throw
does really bad damage
if you have to pull a mob from ranged and you aren't going to gap close to it for whatever reason (like if you're gathering two separate packs) then you just taunt one of the mobs in the other pack
taunt is ranged
Or
you leap into one pack and charge the other
if you have to pull THREE packs or you really need to hold taunt for something (unlikely), that's the situation you use heroic throw
I was pretty sure I saw you using heroic throw in that clip a few days ago but I only didn't comment on it because you were doing 500 other things wrong and it's not really a big deal, but if you're opening every pull with HT you're playing objectively incorrectly
3 pack pull sarent real?
Pull 1 mob at a time, cc the rest of the pack
this is so messed up, now i really want to backseat while telling the tank to pull more
It's so much fun to make baby tanks sweat
im still not very good at that megabonk shit
need to unlock more dudes probably
i bet if blizzard made a vampire survivors mega bonk game it would be bad lol
thats another example of what i consider to be an almost perfect game
its fast and simple and runs butter smooth at all times, and if any thing at all comes up for any reason i can quit out instantly
i don't even have to say what the other example of perfect game is, you already know
i think they would some how make it all contrived to play and it probably has a cash shop i bet if blizzard does it
and it would probably have annoying voice overs
i bought and then refunded megabonk twice 
game just does not scratch the itch like vampire survivors did i think
no, it is opposite for me
With leap, 2 charges, and shield charge, you should almost never need to do such a weak pull where u arent getting some aggro built
i actively avoided buying this one cuz 3d games is better than 2d (MOSTLY) big asterisks
cuz there is a game come outer litera 1 hour
and i already know i buy it second it goes live
and i knew i would play MB forever
i didn't like VS by the end, i like this one more, you can jump
@proper roost hey
run the pros and cons by me of like
deleting my warrior and making one on lemix
smile
What
Why are you deleting the main character though
and it's not that there's nothing to do, it's that there's no one to play with
No one wants to do keys right now it's kinda pointless
the name is really good
and besides
if i have one warrior
when would i use another
thats the only 2 reasons
name and why redundancy
Just come up with another good name 
yeah i'm not quite following just play the remix character?
hidden appearance and mage tower
No mage tower and who cares about hidden appearances
If u want to do a lemix warrior just do it
tf
Ive never seen any reason to do more than one character in remix
I have no idea about the mage tower thing, but the prot warrior mage tower appearance is dogshit
I just do it for the mounts
I mean it's an appearance thing so ymmv but I think it looks garbage
i thought that was like a big appeal of lemix
they brought back keystone hero too
also
it may be because
even though dwarf is dummy op
it looks really ugly
and i wont be in "need dummy op racial" territory
Didnāt u like the looks before
for another 365 days
And dummy op is an overstatement
I mean i DID
I bet you havent even used stone form
i mean, stoneform is not op because of the dr lol
10% dr isnt what makes it good though
i like how human and dwarf active racial is god like and then every other race ability is shit tier
self cleanse is cool and good but
there's a cooldown on dispel
Human is useless for tanks usually
is it long
and stoneform dispels bleeds
i saw they reworked their passive to be hearthstone cooldown
cannabalize a dead humanoid only body to only recover health and you cant move and have to chnnal it and it only heals you for 40% hp
thats pretty cool
like,
Which is sometimes extremely good
or like, i dunno, like, the holy goats one
you die and then a dude appears and expldoes
I remember u first came here asking for best races and we all said do vibes and looks
And u said no
Racials are a meme when people who are just getting like KSM care about it though
And here u are in 2s and lemix wanting to not be dwarf
erm
remove stun
He wanted the meta racials
remove basically every debuff
i wanted to know what was meta racial
HMMMMMm
for memes
i wonder if i want to play either of those 2
anyway dwarf does look good you just need really rare and niche mogs to make it look good
cuz those effects happen ALOT, and kill you
and thats rough
All short races have terrible transmogs
no, dwarf is fine
yeah but nelf ears are horrid
I changed off dwarf too for my characters, i told you its ugly
my dwarf has 2 good ones
and it took like 10 people workshopping it
dwarf is shorter human
Then dont play nelf lmao, u wont be doing meld skips
hoping pugs do meld skips properly monkaw
show me any of your mogs for any race
Either way u can have multiple warriors
Never a reason to delete any character youve leveled
okay just pay for my sub 
i like the maghar ability
why
just random stat buff
random
you would grow it faster if you did keys with a healer that made you cry
tragic

actually hate like 90% of prot warriors in pugs fr
I don't want to set the world on fire.
like, look at how perfect it is
there is some idiot stupid head monster
and i have fire
so i kill it and it never lags
i dont have to pay a sub fee or big up front
I hate 99% of everybody in pugs
it's like 60% boomer players (1 pull at a time), 35% "i only know revenge and also i'm rage capped the entire time," 4% "i've got the MDI skips guys", 1% good players
prot warriors are unique
among tanks
u dont get boomer players playing vdh it's not possible
you just get people who leap and then instantly die in packs
š
i doubt you even know revenge, your rage income is like 40% of what you should be getting
god I actually kind of want to spite play just to prove how easy it is
but that's toxic š
Kanga? Toxic? Never
Look have you seen nimchip lately
But also you've never done a key with me I'm chill af as long as you don't suck at tanking
Okay
log acquired
i actually felt like i did good except for boss mechanics
or well not good
but i played my class not worse than anyone has ever played it
@proper roost @coarse bay
What the fuck is that cpm
Why are you opening with revenge on shit
Colossus 
What's wrong with you
prepping for midnight
uhhh
i dont know if i have other cooldowns open
but i probably do
and forgor
but also revenge is an aoe
I'm not saying your overall cpm goober I'm saying your SS cpm is dog and you're spamming revenge
Nope your literal first GCD of the key was charge-> Revenge
o
Wrong
hmm
Guess u need more prep
i think the shield slam cpm gap is because of haste
whats potential shield slam casts
vs shield slam actuals
And you keep spamming heroic throw.
What
to pull
because there were casters
and if i walk around picking up a bunch of guys
then the castes are gonna sit in their spot
:(
your first thunder clap is 45 seconds into the key
Yes, and you should try out thane. It is smoother than colossus on beta, both tuned about the same dps and survival
nom told me to play colossus
I think you might not actually want to get better
Damn
This cast profile is making me want to die.
I'm pretty new, but most prot on beta are playing thane. Goats included
talking to kanga
about cast profile
ya its a bad cast profile
thats why i posted it
so you can tell me "unbind revenge so you press shield slam more"
Actually I don't even know how to play this season of Colossus. Only did it last season
it's the same
i wonder where i have to go to find out the maximum shield block uptime you can have with this haste
dont think sims tell you that
Just get more haste
it plays like prot warrior has always played but 1) press demolish when you can and 2) if rage is all good and rend is up, you can prio revenge over tc
Or use the other talent
with heavy rep you can def get 100% uptime at low haste
but you have to press
shield slam
Yeah that one
yea
i only hit 80% of all opportunities to shield slam
just need to stop tracking revenge
And with wrong talent?
because its preventing me from hitting shield slam more
he's got heavy rep
what does this even mean
there's nothing to track, it has no cd
So how only 80% of all shield slams with heavy repercussions?
when i see that i have no other buttons i can press
usually i press revenge
but i shouldnt do that
U have shield slam to press tho
because it distracts me from watching for a shield slam proc
but... the problem is you can press shield slam and you're not
it's just practice
and reminding yourself every run that ss is the button to press
thats true
but kanga says this is a really bad cast profile even by the standards of new players
so like
its more than just practice
who gives a shit about how new players play
we don't have data to suggest what percentile you're in
why are you comparing yourself to dirt
idk
it doesn't matter, you've already improved and will continue to improve
There is a theoretical optimal play that is easy to figure out
if you stop hating yourself (impossible challenge)
shield slam on cd, tc on cd, damage cooldowns under avatar
impossible challenge
yea
and i didnt do that
even though its apparently obvious and easy
for everybody
The goal is to play to the theoretical max not to be better than dirt players
so its not a practice issue alone
it might not even be 50% or more a practice issue
is what you're saying
Well if you aren't practicing correctly then it doesn't matter how you play
ya
you're new to tank, you're new to the dungeons, your brain just isn't focusing on single issues yet
how do i practice correctlier
i mean thats what i want to tell myself but i think if i do then kanga will be meaner to me than usual
something about not actually wanting to improve

you're better than you were a week ago
0 * 2
you guys want to see a big cat
if you want to isolate prioritizing the right button, you could put in some dummy time
the title says "giant cat"
google tudou cat
tudou is chinese for potato
hope this helps
what does this tell me
cast breakdown
o
how often you use which ability
No joke I was like "I kind of want to resub and bully some tanks when i get home today"
but I saw that log
and I was like actually I'm good
okay im taunting too much
you also seem to have forgotten that you have shield charge
i need to double thunderclap casts
wait
this isnt even me just pressing the wrong buttons
I really like this sequence of casts btw
yup
what was your haste
many such cases
has nothing to do with haste
hmmm
youre just not pressing shield slam enough
It's like literally 11 incorrect casts in a row
okay, maybe like 10 or 9 actually
it's like impressive. it's a wrong button press speedrun
stop changing stuff
revenge should be easy to press, you'll press it a lot once you've got your prio down
idk
it's just mentally reminding yourself that if ss is available, press it
i had rage
yeah thats plain wrong
and it was gonna go over
if you have rage and ss is available, press ss + ip
and if i pressed ignore pain
you literally didnt use shield slam
it wouldve gone too under
he LOVES heroic throw
you wanna do both
because on lemix when you want to pull stuff on vdh
LOTS more ignore pains and shield slams
you know what's funny is that if he was playing bear and put moonfire on the same keybind, he would only be playing at like 20% efficiency as opposed to 2%
Ok, first of all, you're wrong even with vdh LMAO
i see
you wanna pull with thunderclap and revenge
ok
so dont just "Unbind"
you shouldn't pull with glaive toss unless you have to either icant...
you want to gapclose as vdh as well...
you wanna learn making the correct decisions š
kanga you're really hurting my feelings
im trying to pay attention to what i need to do better
and all i hear is "holy dogshit player"

forge yourself in the burning irons of hate
how r u gonna live through your first entire group flaming you for your pull being wrong
one time I bricked a key because I died in 2 seconds after my first heroic leap charge cds in the first 10s of the key and the healer insta left
focus up, lock in. you just gotta pick a thing to remind yourself to work on next run. kanga hazing is just challenge mode
what's the thing you're gonna remember
Comparing vdh and warrior wont help, and anything lemix should just be ignored
mental fortitude is powerful.
shield slam is THE button
Why are they out of order
press this less often
shield slam is closer to the center of the screen
because i want to see it more
remember if shield slam is available and you're not pressing it, you're constantly missing chances to reset its cooldown
so that's your one thing
i wonder if the play is to just
mash 1
endlessly
and then if i try to press something else
itll just press 1 instead anyway
is shield slam up (and i'm not pressing cooldowns)? press it
Ok well, wrong order, but actually yes
Like legit it's not necessarily wrong to just spam press shield slam button
it'll just give you carpal tunnel and also sometimes you want to press revenge
okay, that's kind of endearing in how clueless it is
Because it's a gcd ability and literally doesn't work
if: shield slam up
then: shield slam
cutenoob moment
Macros don't really work with conditionals like that
some people macro shield slam into IP to snipe resets, but like. you're not really pressing IP enough anyway
Thats just one button rotation at that point
yeah and instead they just made that a base game feature
Big OBR enjoyers here
one button rotation is like insane dps loss for a lot of classes
but i think frost dk
only loses like 3%
isnt that fucking nuts
what does that say about their spec
it loses that if you also press all the CDs that OBR doesn't press at the correct time
which is like
the only thing that matters in fdk
well yeah
you have to press the things that obr doesnt press
but you still lose the dps anyway if you do that i think and that goes for every class
but fdk loses the least amount of it
outside of your 1m+ cds, simc's apl for prot warrior is like 5 buttons
what does it say about your ability to action prioritize
yeah the base fdk rotation just isn't very many buttons

idk
holy paladin was
beacon of light
divine toll
then press the little laser beam
that was basically all i had to do
and i got purple dps parses and blue healer parses
xdd

yeah
That wasn't me being impressed at that.
you're so deep in the dunning kruger hole it's impressive.
i never said i was good
you just never submitted yourself to get roasted because you were content
and that's a fine way to live
guh
but yknow, you come here, we're gonna tell you where you can get better
and kanga's gonna say mean shit, i guess that's part of the deal
ya im gonna press things more and less
shield slam more
thank you
if you look at nom's breakdown he presses revenge a ton still
but you just need to up your button pressing speed in general
and you get there by
pressing ss whenever you can
i wouldn't think too hard about this until you've fixed this one problem but
when you prio shield slam correctly, you're gonna flood with rage again
but pressing IP to get rid of it is gonna be your next problem
one thing at a time
ok
I wouldn't really diagnose him with needs to fill more gcds necessarily i cba to look at the log more
but like obviously is just panicking and not paying attention
yeah
and you fix that by picking a single thing to think about
He just randomly pressed it because he was panicking
i mean if i say anything to defend myself itll look bad because youll think im trying to say im playing fine but
in my defeeennnseeee
ive never done eco dome
i have no idea what anything does
and im sightreading all my pulls and bosses
i mean that's what i've been saying, you're mentally overloaded and so your brain is autopiloting
and you haven't had the practice to have a good autopilot yet
ya i guess so
which is why it could help to try and fix the base rotation stuff on a dummy
or if you're not about that life, it's fine, you'll just need to try and focus up in the dungeons
and get more comf over time
Smile
Yea i probably should find some time to do that
Its just kinda boring but some things must be done
I think a good way to see the dungeons without the added stress of learning tank and dungeon at the same time is to dps in them though
it's made me lose faith in life i think or something
how did you live through any of the whirlwind logs
It was my SECOND KEY EVER

kanga is so mean
i mean, whirlwind logs is just funny
that's like so bad it's good
this is just depressing there's 2 buttons to prioritize
It's possible you buy abiotic factor
wow ok
lmao
you're a great source of entertainment
Ok stop saying nice things about me
don't take that sentence the wrong way
š«”
i have one more good quip though can I drop that one
it's not a nice one
It's kinda funny though
No i really liked the healer
I apologized after boss 2
oh
For being slow
they suck thoguh
yea but they had a cool mog
idk u would have to ask wcp
nah guess it's only if they're using archon
they kinda forgot their hero talent existed
the entire key
1 min cd on premonition and you're supposed to cast it on cooldown btw
icant
this is like if you pressed avatar once the entire key
WHAT
i pressed avatar like
23 times
I'm saying them not using their hero talent
is like not using avatar except once the entire key
Oh
What is wrong with your reading comprehension
Thats bad
But still putting someone else down isnt a kind source of entertainment
So they might b new
kanga has high expectations of what players are like in a +2 key in world of warcraft for personal computer
believe it or not i've seen years of worse play
had to watch classic holy paladins for 5 years

Why would u willingly subject yourself to classic
i think the key difference is that those guys did not want to improve though
All the bosses were designed with old pcs and shit internet in mind
wanting to improve but still sucking is kind of sadge
It's been like 1 week why aren't you good yet
That's enough time to be good at the game
kanga has kids
"you're a month old and you're still not rolling over?"
"this fuckin crawling log made me lose my will to live"
kanga does not strike me as the child having typ
True
that's more brutal than anything kanga has said to you
we got a roastmaster over here
is it??
fuckin cooked em dude
i'm a millennial, we hate children
kanga: "you're bad at world of warcraft"
khailby: "the government should not allow you to raise children"
i was there when you said it, it was crazy
politics for weak people
||when the doctor told me hrt would significantly reduce fertility and if i'd be concerned about it i was like fuck yeah are you kidding me. i've wanted this my whole life||
children suck
lmao hell yeah
They can't even talk, actual skill issue
sorry to break it to you but i was roasting people in here ages ago š
gulp
most of them got better
Gulp
or they stopped playing tank cuz they weren't cut out for it. Either way, great outcome
Itās a Kang or be Kangaād world o it there
undertaleā¦
i do sincerely believe like, how does anyone who have thin skin think they'll get good at tanking keys
people will just be mean to you because they hate you, not because they want you to be better
if you're gonna tilt and give up after someone being mean to you in a key you'll just end up like yogi and never do a 10
short of, like, an undiagnosed anxiety disorder, i think "thin skin" is also a solvable problem though
Yeah but i can ignore them because i choose not to value what they have to say because my keymates are subhuman
(Joke)
i see. your problem is that you value kanga too much to let the jabs slide

I haven't even played retail in 3 years and i played for like 1 and a half season
You don't know that
I could be extremely washed when I play
confidence is key i guess
i didn't play that much this year either, i have a kid and my house burned down
I could just prove that everything you're whining about is skill issue and spite play my warrior over the next week for 3.5k
but the fundamentals don't really change so
of course its skill issue
Which is... kind of funny.... but...
if i wasn't enjoying osrs so much rn I would consider it
Spite is the best motivator of progress
she's just telling you where you're factually not playing correctly, not saying "and therefore your immutable soul isn't cut out for prot warrior"
I think categorically I am your opp
No weāre friends
You should feel spite towards and try to improve because I don't believe you'll get better
kanga wants to be my vegeta

No, goku is actually competent and also trains
in my social group i've seen genuine sub-grey-parsers, like "you know you can press buttons, right" players become genuinely good over time
im a fraud millennial because i've never watched dragon ball
yeah never watched dbz idk
anyways i might install tn idk kinda feeling the spite
within me
Exposure therapy
yeah sure, you can carry my shaman through some keys
Ok
I think khailby just forms a team centered around him
With people from this discord
And see where it goes
Enlist pepega
also I stopped playing my warrior as prot because I wanted to keyge with nimchip
Tragic
I dont play my warrior as anything but prot
I wouldnt expect everyone to be warrior
Thatd be lame
5 warrior key or 0 warrior key, thats how it goes
but also I played fury in raid, so that skewed it a bit also obviously
also fury was very op that season in keys but whatever
Ive kinda learned that i hate playing one of my tanks in raid as a dps
It takes like half the season for prot offspec to even be geared somewhat well
getting one good 2h isn't that hard
especially since you're opening vault in dps anyway
Im expected to prioritize dps
it's way harder to get a shield when offspeccing prot
oh, wait, i misread how you said it, sorry
I thought you were saying the other way around 
yeah, it's annoying af to be DPS raid / tank keys
s1 nimchip just said fuck you to his guild and made tank shield pretty early iirc
very few slots, hard to secure one
You can
Just harder to find a guild
And a lot of raid tanks are kinda career tanks, theyll like never willingly give up the role or leave
thats all i want to do
there are so many stories of the raid leader being one tank and their not-very-good best friend being the other
I also have fun dpsing in raid so
but everytime i dps tanks piss me off because they dont under stand positioning etc etc
Ya idk it seems pretty common to spot some bad raid tanks
raid tanking is also boring as shit and makes your brains melt and makes you a worse player

Ill be backup tank next season
you ither die a shit tank, or live long enough to become a shit tank yourself
||unless your sense||
Tbh the idea of spending that much time raid tanking
Figuring your stuff out in a few pulls then waiting potentially 300+ pulls for the rest of the guild to figure there part out
Just sounds painful
i mean thats the exact same as m+
well done u know what your pulling now u have to wasit for a healer and dps comp that can do it
Ya and every role, but tanking has kinda low variance in raid
Khailby lmk when you find a raiding guild
i don't think he has the persistence to do that
he's lost patience with playing pwar after 1 week

Heās felt lemix vdh and converted to vdh
Wrong
Do they still ask for job applications
Like āwhere do you workā
āHow many sexual partners have you hadā
āWhere do you liveā
āWhen is your birthdayā
āWhat religious holidays do you celebrateā
damn
Usually just checking vibes and logs/experience
U gotta make sure they do too
Oh yeah thats true
Just join an aotc guild full of dads
Aotc dad guilds are so chill
āDudes i built this shelf the other dayā
āI didnt even have to drill for it cause they have these new stick on thingsā
Like hell yeah you did
Congrats on shelf clear

yeah
Some nice people will probably play with u and teach u the dungeons and stuff
Ill probably raid aotc for midnight
To farm logs and learn and make good friends
then maybe ill see how mythic goes
I doubt this but I think it'd be funny to see you enter your too elitist for casual aotc guild arc
thats not a thing
Who in their right mind thinks they can skip to ce
You need logs
And skill
U wont be able to go from aotc too ce
It would be aotc to mid mythic guild to ce guild
And alot of ppl thunk they can go from.nothing to ce guilds
Trust me i see them apply
Yeah also most people in casual aotc guilds are not going to have any mindset to improve
If you're on class discord and you actually get good at the game, you'll get fed up with your casual aotc guild
Seen it happen over and over over 10 years
anyway, bnet @red ferry
Casual aotc can be chill if most of the group is āretiredā CE raiders
One of my friends guilds is like that
but that requires everyone to be happy just sticking to where they are
if he's already like "well, we'll see what happens with mythic"
Recipe to be disappointed when he realizes none of them actually want to try harder
Nobody said u should join a casual ce guild, u should join a casual aotc guild. And i think a lot of aotc/low-mid mythic guilds are more elitist than youd expect lol
Please find one soon
I think hearing about guild drama through you would be another fun thing in life
oh god so true
orly
i guess that makes sense
But the mid mythic guild would still get aotc probably
Err
Drinking my soder
Gimme a second
??
I went out
To a sports bar
And ordered a fried potato skins
And brought it back
And i am enjoying
I'm not home for at least 4h it doesnt matter
Oh ok
just dont wuss out
i wont
i had my fill of guild drama when i got benched on like 2% on final boss of mythic so someones girlfriend could get ce as a birthday present
i think several people got benched for her and her friends

god forbid a girl do anything
I refuse to get jacked up in drama again
Idc if youve had your fill of drama
Women will take like 5 tablets of ibuprofen at 7 in the morning and call it girl breakfast
Get some more for us
Had a bad guild drama back in Cata still donāt run guilds because of it
I love guild tea
Idk thereās lots of good guilds and people, avoiding that aspect of the game over a bad experience is unfortunate
Yeah I know thereās far more good than bad but Iām also sporadic and canāt commit since I got a little one at home the late night pugs are only thing letting me experience new raids
Bro u should join a dad guild
We were just talking about those
They take anyone and its just dudes talking about their day while they kill boss
Dad guilds can still have drama
With one or two guys drunk off their ass for better or worse
Don't worry
no way
Ya i bet thereās guilds that would understand an inconsistent schedule, its only aotc anyways
Sounds like my type of people
Pugs are just that bad
Yea theres tons of those
Iām hoping to be more consistent in midnight but also not setting my bar higher than what I have
45 year old ret paladin cracks open their second beer and starts telling the raid all of their Opinions
I think pugging is harder than a casual guild
oh
yeah.
hitler particles were what you called it right
