#

i liked it when it was a big ol mess and you walked in and finished in 10 seconds

solid sun
#

Hey yeah so

#

What’s the play there

#

I did it once and used a green coin and suddenly I was with these strangers and finished the quest

#

Am I supposed to join a group?

toxic pewter
#

ya group for abundance is pretty goodd

#

can find a raid

tribal wharf
#

i figure someone will want to see log

fringe mural
#

you can do solo

tribal wharf
#

died to a couple of things

fringe mural
# solid sun What’s the play there

You need 20k score for 900 abundance per run, which is the highest you can get

Participating nets you 2500, looting a node, like skinning something or mining etc, gives you 400 each, if you manage to bring 1000 abundance to the altar your points count double and if during the 3 minutes your shard reaches 10k, you will get a score of 5k for each time

#

so what you do is you run solo into the skinning cave, pull everything up to an elite bear

#

kill everything around you and skin it

#

then go the altar and maybe repeat that once until you have the debuff at lvl 2

#

then you can go afk until the timer is done

#

and get max abundance

solid sun
#

Ummmm what if I’m not a skinner

#

And am instead mining and bs

fringe mural
#

dont need the skill

Everyone can do it

oh pepega my sweet summer child

as soon as you can use it to get 4pc

yes

#

you should have a free charge

smoky saffron
#

just to make what i heard has some truth behind if I get 4 set on one character all member of my warband get the manaflux easier?

plush tendon
#

no

lofty warren
#

Oh my gosh its only a charge and not actual item. Blizz stingy AF

plush tendon
#

you need 4 piece on each toon

#

to start unlocking the cata charge drop chance

#

for that toon

glad magnet

I’ve only gotten 2 charges. deadge

I dont have 4pc

smoky saffron

lofty warren
#

No im trying to get to 4 pc.. noy worry about stuff after it

fringe mural
#

ah

plush tendon
#

the good news is we should get another charge next reset

lofty warren
#

Back in tww you would get an actual item tier instead of a catacylsm charge why did they make it worse

plush tendon
#

so itll be 2 charges plus 1 from 2k IO

glad magnet
plush tendon
#

so youll only need 1 tier piece from vault or raid

plush tendon
#

you just send the cata charge on literally anything to get 4 set

#

cause youll farm more charges by playing the game at 4 piece

#

I got one from a delve

#

M+ drops em

#

raid drops em

#

I bet PVP also drops em

lofty warren
#

To get a heroic item you need to run like 5 dungeons (bc only 1 item drop from eod and there are 5 ppl).. also on top of that it has to be item that you can convert into tier and not some trinket

plush tendon
#

you can also just cata a champ piece

lofty warren
#

Im talking about process to get heroic tier. Need to spam dungeons and prey for the 20% that you get a loot + that the item is convertible to tier. Is that right?

#

Eod always only drops 1 item? I swear I saw 2 drop before too

plush tendon
#

ah

#

yea, sounds about right

#

or you can do a delve map

Hey guys, maybe a bit of random question but i just did a +10 skyreach and the first pack after the first boss (pack 6, i tried left and right) just fucking NUKED me. Shield wall up everything up and i just get one shot at some point. Seems to be this fiery talon the mobs apply on me.

Does anyone know how to deal with this? Maybe dispellable or i got to do something different.

trim bay

Its a bleed

#

you need to kite if you cant clear it

U dont even need to kite shruge

how does prot warrior apply deep wounds

Fear will drop it

Demolish or execute

Oh damn, okay thanks guys 🙏

Demolish will just do it i believe

We have zero way to cleanse ourselves now right? They took away our dispel?

Anyone know of the Spell Reflect issue on Crown of the Cosmos? Specifically Grasp of Emptiness.

outer willow
#

Was it a magic dispell?

jagged pier
#

Nope

What was it?

It did like posion and disease

Which can be helpful but is also covered by a lot of healers

#

Never did magic debuffs

outer willow
#

Ahhh bitter immunity.

#

That’s what it was

#

untold cape
#

So apparently, you can spell reflect Grasp of Emptiness on Crown of the Cosmos... This puts the Obelisks shots from the boss and is able to kill random people in the raid.

ngl skyreach has some hard hitting trash

not a bad dungeon overall imo

Apart from the armour reduction once u learn the 2 step its fine tbh

i dont understand wtf you are going to do about first boss of sky reach

raw parcel
#

Skyreach is probably my favorite dungeon of the season so far, I think.

tribal wharf
#

like the trash on that platform

jagged pier
#

U just pull it

tribal wharf
#

and the dps just get flung off the ledge

jagged pier
#

Thats because u arent inturpting

raw parcel
#

Kick repel. I always say at the start of dungeons "if you don't kick repel, a scary monster will eat you"

#

I also say "if I didn't pull it, I meant not to pull it, don't pull stuff for me." They don't always listen to that one.

tribal wharf
#

it is an interupt thing then? okay cuz i understand how the recieving end of it comes, outwards from him i mean

#

so, if i have to kick it, then i'll figure it out

tribal wharf
#

Listen you dense blob. As long as I live as a tank, it rarely ever matters how much dam I do in raids as long as I keep threat. Tank dam is cosmetic. I also, again NEVER SAID tanks should not do damage. I can repeat it for you again if you want. TANK RAID ST DAM IS NOT RELEVANT ENOUGH TO WARRANT BRICKING M+ PERFORMANCE OVER IT. Thats what I mean with irrelevant.

raw parcel
#

Pulling stuff is the tank's job though. If Johnny Dipshit DPS thinks he knows how to pull better (he doesn't), he should strap a shield on.

toxic pewter

i tank ego'd out bad yesterday im not proud to admit it

#

the solar flare or whatever?

olive rock
#

the damage he does dont count

olive rock
#

crit one

toxic pewter
#

yeah

#

that one better for dam

so basically wear that one

#

unless u need defensive trinket in moments where you want that

unreal sequoia
#

Easy way to farm myth crests? I only have 25 so far

#

I assume to not use the hero ones

coarse bay
#

There's also some nuance to it. If you don't think you will be killing first mythic boss for awhile, imo it wouldnt be bad to do shield

solid sun
#

Yeah supposed to is probably a weird way to say it. It’s probably the most optimal path, but if you aren’t raiding mythic it may make sense to craft a shield first

coarse bay
solid sun
#

+9 dungeons get you myth track

coarse bay
#

you can do delve boss ??, bountiful delves x4 once delve track 4 for 20 a week, or +9 and above m+

And also is a nice way to engage with dungeons while you learn them and score hero track gear

In terms of raw mitigation is thane or col better? I like both but damage and thickness wise which is preferred?

theyre both pretty much the same, thane is very slightly ahead in damage output

Is spellbreaker ever worth it? Doing 12s and 13s, I notice the only time I ever feel 'in danger' is during the beginning of MT with the adds that have arcane blade on their autos, or someting similar

toxic pewter
#

O_O u takin spellbreaker?

#

that talent is basically giga trash

coarse bay
#

ya it's a chance at mitigating damage

we have a lot of strong talents

you could opt into moving a more flexible point into it

but it isnt something reliable

THat's why I was asking. I don't take it, but it's like, the only spot in the tree that I could feasibly move the tree to help with magic damage

but it isnt that big

quick question. i just had a warrior tank and he feelt like papper. noticed he basicly never had shield block active. have they changed it or was he just a pepeg

im dumb and dont TC though

It's just hard to justify IMO. Cause it's like, at MOST a few packs throughout an entire dungeon

I think it's just the spellbreakers right before 2B in Terrace, and the adds before Vexamus that have magic on their autos

#

Spellbreaker isn’t worth the point. It would be better to put it into Hunker Down on the same node before you take speallbreaker

#

Fight through the flames is a fine node to swap to as well if you’re really concerned, but we deal with magic damage the same way we did last patch. Shield Wall, Spell Reflect, etc

so if we get a free revenge how would it not change that rule

and for revenge ?

u revenge when you dont have SS or TC/TB available

not what the apl says

You cast Revenge as normal, dont worry about the proc

we arent robots, and u always want to be generating and spending rage when u can

Honestly feel like it was the hardest dungeon I’ve ran but I haven’t done a skyreach yet

daring marlin
#

use your eyes

cerulean tusk
#

When you getting slapped, you got rage for days either way. Yet you can still not get SB resets, meaning SB falls off, you take more dam, so you press IP in more panic, equals less focus and avoidable death

#

Meh, so far I only tanked 10-12 range, and you will only die if you ignore pack mechanics. IP spam has never been needed

damn i must be playing horribly then lol

I got meekauras to track it with this code

end

return false

end

cerulean tusk
#

But why

#

Well, guess it is neat to have done, at least you aint tracking IP religiously

coarse bay
#

I also want to note that apls arent meant to be studied for rotations

#

probably not for pwar, but some specs have lines that are humanly impossible

inner trail
#

well I usually just code it into wekauras

coarse bay
#

and are only in there to make the bot act correctly

inner trail
#

although now much of it is not possible due to secret values

#

hekili used to do the same too

cerulean tusk
coarse bay
#

hekili copied sims, yes. hekili was also notoriously incorrect

#

like i said, some lines in apls are not meant to be done by humans

inner trail
#

maybe for some specs I played with it as outlaw to like top 5 rio in the world for it

coarse bay
cerulean tusk
#

Top 5 outlaw, at some point, at some Rio bracket world

Neat

coarse bay
#

i dont bash people for using hekili, everyone has their reasons, but claiming it's good is just wrong. and backing it up with top 5 rio is something

inner trail
#

for outlaw it was very good yeah

cerulean tusk
#

I been top world Fury monkahmm does that count too?

#

Not sure what it got to do with anything, yet it might matter for whatever way this discussion is going

inner trail
#

you said hekili is notoriously incorrect, I'm saying it was good for certain specs

coarse bay
#

It was notoriously incorrect, yes

cerulean tusk
#

This do be true

coarse bay
#

Rio doesnt translate to correct rotation fully

daring marlin
#

@urban portal get them

cerulean tusk
inner trail
#

following an optimal apl will result in more dps for many specs so I don't see why it would be bad

urban portal
#

I’m retired

#

I don’t need to defend hekili

daring marlin
#

lmfao

urban portal
#

Just like I don’t need to defend MJ

daring marlin
#

be funny if you did

urban portal
#

We all know they were the goats in their era

cerulean tusk
#

I just dont see why you would track a proc you dont play around sadge

I dont care if you want a rotation helper addon

inner trail
#

I mean the apl keeps getting optimized still, I think I might play around it for a micro optimization

#

using sb over tclap when you have phalanx already increases dps by like 2% seems like, yeah you wouldn't track these things without weakauras helping you but if you can use them it's worth it

cerulean tusk
#

I mean, knocka yourself out, if you find that fun - optimize away

Just be careful so you dont come as you try to advice ppl to follow that

cerulean tusk
#

Prob meant slam, or his sentence doesnt make sense

coarse bay
#

And shield slam is already prio over tc

inner trail
#

ss i mean sry

coarse bay
#

Apex or not

#

We dont play around apex

#

Thats how u rage starve

#

Maybe in a perfect world against dummies that dont hit you

#

But we are in a dungeon

#

And we need to stay alive

inner trail
#

well i originally was trying to figure out if we should ever use tc over slam if we don't have phalanx yet

coarse bay
#

We dont

#

Even if its a minimal damage gain

#

What i said above would change that

#

We need to continue our normal loop

#

Same reason u wouldnt revenge because of the proc

cerulean tusk
#

To be fair, he might talk from a raid offtank perspective

coarse bay
#

idk if he has it but there needs to he a nim wall of text talking about not playing around the apex

cerulean tusk
#

I hope not, why would there need to be

#

Just cause someone making a bot and try to MinMax it, doesnt mean nim need to make a disclaimer

coarse bay
#

People dont trust the guides

#

For some reason

#

As if the sims arent used to optimize them

cerulean tusk
#

That is fair tho, I love when ppl are sceptics that try in a genuine matter to test what and how it works

coarse bay
#

Ya i guess if i wasnt so dumb id try things out

cerulean tusk

Hey guys. I am tanking to help out guildies with mythic runs but I am getting absolutely shredded by some packs.

I can play prot competently but at times I am spamming ignore pain every CD just to stay alive...

Tanking 11s to 13s . Ilvl around 265 but using an adventurer shield. Could that be making a difference?

First pull in academy. There is no way I can survive the whole room pull but I see guardian druids doing it for fun

Also packs in skyrech especially after 1st boss annihalating me

Feel like I need a healer spamming me to stay alive

Any thoughts?

Adventurer shield is a huge yikes

shield is the biggest thing you can get

Did you craft the silly embelishment shield? I wanna see how it actually performs

tribal wharf

and focusing too heavling on the suck in mechanic

cerulean tusk
#

++ tho, ya did good

tardy juniper
#

Thanks for the good advice so far guys.

I dont really kite so could work on that

Just need to switch loot spec and get a herioc shield

Why not panic spam ignore pain?

cerulean tusk
#

You will often find yourself rage choking yourself and getting fewer SS resets

#

Meaning less CDR, less rage, less SB uptime for free

tribal wharf
#

that boss is much more about dodging the balls

cerulean tusk
#

You just fall behind more and more

tribal wharf
#

than it is anything else

cerulean tusk
#

It is basically a doom spiral, more IP sent not turned into reset for more rage, means less IP value and in the end CDs coming back later

tribal wharf
#

at least we dont have soooo many mechanics affixes

#

teeming, bolstering, skittish, sanguine, tornadoes and more

tardy juniper
#

Ok makes sense. I guess i just notice my ignore pain uptime icon disappearing within seconds and health taking chunks out of it constantly so feel I need to keep hitting it to stay alive thats all

tribal wharf
#

let me count the ways i hate those

solid sun
#

IP isn’t used to stay alive

#

IP is used as a rage dump

cerulean tusk
#

Yeah, it is classic trap to get focused on IP value

tribal wharf
#

you use it in part to stay alive but dont over thinik it

#

if you play even close to right you will have ip all the time anyways

tardy juniper
#

So dont need 100% uptime on ip?

coarse bay
cerulean tusk
#

Not at all, Here

solid sun
#

No, we don’t pay attention to IP uptime

cerulean tusk
#

It just a bonus

solid sun
#

We pay attention to SB uptime, we pay attention to percentage of blocked hits, rage management, sending CD’s, etc

tardy juniper
#

So why are so many double and triple packs destroying me lol

Would you happen to have any logs for us to look at?

cerulean tusk
#

You stunning Buster adds, making em desynced and stuff?

urban portal
#

If you don’t like it just don’t use it

#

Why hate

#

They just feel insecure they get out damaged by 50 lines of code

cerulean tusk
#

Cause hekili ppl keep preaching about it, having it be some sort of "more fun" when it trains ppl not to play the game sadge

urban portal
#

That’s just me

#

I’m the only one preaching hekili

coarse bay
# urban portal Why hate

Like i said i dont care or bash anybody who uses it, it’s like kitty said where its when people preach about it

Just play the game, use your brain and press buttons as the design intended

keep shield block up and don't turn your back to the enemies
press Ignore Pain to prevent rage from capping (even if your IP is full.)
hit the enemies with your abilities

#

I'd suggest reading the Icy Veins pwar guide

brisk dove
#

so always have shield block up, always have ip up, press buttons... taunt when needed.

#

should i taunt on cd.

#

(dungeon setting)

round pendant
#

"Always have ip up" no, the state of IP is irrelevant to any decision making (unless you're doing giga hard content and know what you're doing)

#

no you don't taunt on cd, hit the mobs with thunder clap to gather threat

#

taunt if someone steals aggro, but usually just hitting the mobs enough will prevent that from happening

game's ez don't worry

#

yam doesnt even play wow

brisk dove

so its keep block up, always face the enemy, shield slam when its up, and taunt to keep enemies on me and off my allies.
