Are PTR realms still up? I might go mess around with it there if they are
just buy a gleeful glamour smh my head
gleeful glamour 1hr duration 2hr cd, you can do 2hrs with reflecting prism, and of course atomic recalibrator
like I have 2 dwarf warriors who havnt reached max level
I have my main warrior Bjorn (whos human)
I have my 2nd warrior Bjoing
and I have my 3rd warrior Bjornbeard

Gnome nelf gnome, for my warriors
4th is velf but still has not gone out of lemix
I like having a hunter called zulgolas, he has a pet named jinli
You like viking names don't you?
the knockback from drac is also very nice
can you use it to reset the skyreach bleed or is the duration too short?
or not bleed but
Talons
when I made my warrior, I was super into vikings

and the viking/norse theme works super well for Warriors
Meanwhile i imagine my characters as the same gnome at different step of his life 
did they remove berserker shout abiility to remove speed impairing effect?
no it just works on 1 movement impair
its called fearless
shout never had snare removal
oooh ty
Now if we could get avatar to remove roots again that’d be nice
Be gnome or have bladestorm/ be slayer 
Blunt trauma storm
now hold up
and it was dumb and stupid
SL
Damn didn’t play that one, wild
did we have Bladestorm in SL?
Do any of you nerds go for triple threat?
Im pretty sure it was Ravager
Signet leggo
well thats different
legion
it was a random proc off our major CD
leggo
Casted avatar / reck / bladestorm
I wouldnt mind having one of our old DPS cds back
like Droar or Ancient Aftershock
❤️
But if you used signet leggo and you rolled 50% on the bs = you insta died bc cant block 
I dont think I played War in SL until Reprisal came out
which was a immediate always use if I remember correctly
Oh. I did use The Wall early on
See I was imagining the bladestorm from the adds on AA
Hi!! im new to tanking so still very confused what items are good for tank stats or not, I dont raid but I think iv gotten some good stat allocations now, what do you guys think?
Stat allocation isn’t real and it can’t hurt you
we dont target stat allocation like that, we equip haste and then sim the rest
confused now
it happens
what are we simming for???
damage
healing
I want the "not die" stats not damage
Killing things faster
and indirectly defensiveness
The not die part is your abilities
then that's simming
oh btw nim, after you went to sleep i looked at my log again, and i found out two things
1: i need to face the mobs more
2: i need to spend a lot more rage
there are no 'not die stats'
not dying comes from proper play
how are we simming defensive?
but we prio haste since thats how we get better SB uptime
any gain you get from secondaries to dps, means you also get that gain to defensiveness since all tanks have dual role secondaries
so sim goes up
my sb is up like all the time i'm hit, i just need to turn my shield towards the enemy
crit/mastery/vers all provide good defensive value and therefore, simming will give you a good amount of each
defensiveness goes up
All stats have value defensively so we sim to see what provides the most damage because it’s all going to help us not die
since Prot War stats are fluid and change as you add more or less
stamina lol
its not a focus haste and X stat and ignore others
if your healer is a god that is
im looking to take less damage XD
there will be a natural balance of all 4 you will get which youll know by simming your toon
then sim
u take less damage by pressing buttons good
is there anything you dont understand of what i'm saying
maybe im regarded but the stats for max damage are not the same as the stats for dying slowest
sim goes up in damage due to secondaries means your defensiveness and tankiness ALSO goes up
wrong
the only exeptions are pure dmg trinkets
Is there a reason you think “stats do max damage are not the same as the stats for dying slowest”
haste -> more rage -> more ip -> less dmg taken
crit -> more parry -> less dmg taken
versa -> less dmg taken
mastery -> more crit block chance -> less dmg taken
well from what iv found mastery is better for damage but worse for mitigating damage
so there is no secondary stat that doesnt increase survivability
wrong
maybe I am regarded
yes youre very regarded
well it might be for him if he has like 0 mastery
lmao
naw, you're just new
not very nice to regard him like that

also more haste means better sb uptime and having cds more often
^
that is why haste stronk
focus on game play, equip cool stuff, and youll be fine
mastery is my lowest at 271, iv got 1013 haste
thats alright
tbh, none of yall tried the int mainstat build yet, thats the best you can run
keep focusing on haste
idk why someone would go out of their way to say "regarded"
like its obvious what youre trying to say
it wont be till like late season 2 or season 3 where we stop full sending on haste
to trick filters
side note, I fuckin love this trinket
we just dont have enough stats in S1 to have to make those decisions

sometimes you get banned by saying the actual word
imma do it
tiktok ahh censorship regarded dihh ahh mfers ong ong fr no cap
u shouldnt, but okay
just choose another word
it heals for 1m+ on bigger pulls 😄
its cringe af
that assumes he knows one
Its like the guy who preferred Champ Ultradon Curiass to myth Solar Core Igniter 
poopyhead
intellectually impaired is nice
thats a good one
cringe ass nae nae baby
67
the ultradon can be nice while you learn, its like a "oh shit" button haha
hello im back from my 1min timeout
im gonna get McDs today
I was a good boy and made lunch
but I really want a McChicken

not same
Hello back from my 1min timeout
im gonna skip lunch today methinks
I need me that BEEF

for real?
eat Protein
mccrispy as menu and on the side a double cheeseburger
protein make you strong
yes.
ill take double fries too
i need to stay weak and supple
we had to give it a shot
naw, you need to get biggie bag


It litteraly is an evil word and should not be used
McChicken, nuggies, drink, and small fry for like $5
nono
we had a big debate about that recently
if you go to mcdonalds, you need to have beef and bird
bro, what else do you get
not only bird
im getting bk's
small fry
That shit is like 4 fries at my mcds
wtf
their big fries are tiny
ban him
I dont like McDs burgers anymore
Got into making pasta lately, this guy makes it look so easy and honestly it is, if you like to cook I highly recommend him
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkmP2hcIPnM
A classic Italian carbonara… but with a twist.
In this POV kitchen video, I’m making one of the creamiest carbonaras I’ve ever cooked using a restaurant technique and a little unexpected ingredient.
Watch how the sauce comes together into a silky, glossy emulsion right in the pan.
POV cooking from a real restaurant kitchen in Italy.
If yo...
if Im getting beef, its wendys
Small. 
😮
I made pasta last night
with Sausage
usually big tasty bacon menu + 9 piece nuggets or 20 piece nuggets with 1 mcdouble
you'll fit right in here
I don't mind a whopper now and then but most of BK food is trash
wtf
naw, Sausage was on sale
I like ultradon crassis though
$3 for 6
I cringed so hard at that ceo video I no longer can respect myself for going mcd's

Imagine that was their best take too
too bad, there's better trinkets like solar core and globule
lmao
Guy coughing then spitting out their "product"
And burger king nuggets are a crime against humanity
Magine how bad the other cuts were
I can't help but to think why do it at all
in this economy, we are all poors
atp
i ate burgerking in 2020, got norovirus was 3 weeks shooting liquids in all directions, 2 months later the "german burgerking health exposure" video dropped, never again since
is joke lol I dont raid though, the pugs make me feel sub human when they disband
Yuh, for real.
Isn't norovirus just a cold lol
Too many yesmans saying it's a good idea ig
none of those are raid trinkets
Instead of yo boss this is gonna get attention in a bad way
Oh I'm thinking rhinovirus
thought solar core was... I gotta look now
Nvm
Bloodscale from shadowlands
Norovirus looks unfun
noro is endboss for the stomach system
its ok to be wrong, just dont tell people ultradon is better than the best defensive trinket option and there wont be an issue
Bis
def unfun
No longer an emissary
Think you weren't when I here last but ah well
BIG BITE FOR A BIG ARCH
skyreach for solar core, pit for globule
I dont know If I can trust a fast food CEO like that
Ngl the big arch is quite good though
STOP
I'm a picmixer now. I make art
LOVE PIT its best dung
Has half the cd and gived mainstat and best case vers
XD
Is that an AI prompter kind of a role?
the bait works every time
smaller shield but partial and shorter cooldown, so its superior
Not eating it though because 1k calories for a single burger is nutty
No every picmix is made by hand with love
one other thing, I saw on the wow head guide I think it shows wearing 5 set is BIS??
use the icy-veins guide
we dont do wowhead anymore
Who even is that pumps guy?
says 6 pieces is BIS lol
what happen
yes well
6pc 
I dont myth raid, have mythic heart from ws dung & crafted weapons.
I dont have myth trinket or weapons from skyreach.
Given that i shoild target weapons/trinkets for bonus rolls - is there any reason why using them on skyreach is wrong?
we dont have a guide writer, someone who doesnt play pwarr is filling in
😔
They're all Brews now
Is it confirmed that the 298 upgrade on crafted will only go to 295?
is it really that bad? imo pwarr is prob 2nd best overall tank
Think 295
pwarr isnt bad, brew is just unbelievably cracked
4pc (no tier gloves), the boots/belt don't add up for the tier bonus despite being catalyst items
Brew is just the tank of choice this season
Skyreach is a good target dungeon
Think it's brew, then bear, then the rest is just shrug who cares
there is always one
theres a 298 option? isnt that above mythic??
why bear?
fat alcoholic spec 2tanky
is it for the damage? or just druid util
Petko tier list says best tanks for m+ = brew > bear > pwar = ppal > whoever else is left
cos incarn does 900k dps on big pull
I just hear they doin alright
otherwise bear is eh
I can see that
Think it was archon ordering?
the build from this video, is that something in general worth to run like that in higher keys? i mean killing the dmg by removing apex points and redistribute them seems to make sense since survivalbility is higher like that, but i might be wrong, so i was wondering is there any other build for higher keys like the icy veins one just with other builds, or is it like in the video the "best" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRUTIX0BOZI

Bear does lots of dps and pwar is low dps
holy fucking spam
no, we do not
Reacted with 
any build that is not 4/4 apex is banned in here
looks like every tank is within the margin of error on Archon
except brew
why's so?
I bet the low dps pwar logs are bc ppl are using bsv talent and not the max dps talents
being 10%?
just when i thought the questions would be over about 1/4 apex
Yeah, realistically it's brew then who cares
I think when I saw it was Brew S, Bear A rest B
What do you mean by this
they would start again
read #protection message
as long as the streamer bois do it, they will return
take the fight to them
yea, thats my take. If you are pushing IO, just play Brew
I still havnt gotten my brew to 90, but I have no intention of playing monk anyways
I just switched from bear, it's boring af compared to warr
Instead I started leveling a bear XD
That's just keys, you get the 1 good tank then the 1-2 good healers then the 3-4 dps.
On icy veins iy says to use some talents and those are the ones that dps the most dps. If you look at archon recommended it says to use other talents. Archon pulls from high keys and ik those keys ppl are using talents that are more defensive like dps. More defensive picks = lower dps bc you cant have everything
idk, somtimes they get tank balance pretty good
A spec can be good enough assuming you have a group but most people pug
like last season it was a 'prot war' season
but prot pal was super viable
along with brew
ok so only brew is viable for anything abovve + 4
got it
Ah this is it. If you change the drop down box from 7-21, to high keys it looks like this
tuff times!
Its also painful to watch that guy play
why are all the good explainations not pinned
My pwar I've been trying more and only 3.2k on my brew alt got to 3.2k without even really trying just doing 8x dungeons per week
I think he dumps all his rage into ip perma
yea, I see it
but I think putting bear A is a diservice to them
everyone should be in B
minus Brew
Should I skip lunch today or should I get something from the lunch special menu at the local Mexican spot
Long story short, #buffbrew
No skip meals
get food
Skip, fatty
you need protein

he's gay, he's sexy
Get food, protein good
get food
Dont get food
Since brew has never been best tank in m+ blizz has announced they will be best tank for all of midnivht. If ppl complain enough then maybe only for season 1 
never skip the protein
That’s 4-2, food shall be acquired
Good
S3 of BFA was a brew season
just so happens that S3 of BFA was awful
Mine was sarcasm
I am fine with this. I like stagger
But you couldnt hear
It cool
The blizz default stagger colors are so annoying. In keys i am always red which totally makes having diff colors useless
id be a little worried as a brew moving forward
they prob dont stay as BiS M+ tank in future seasons
Gotta get one of those UI's that shows actual stagger%
and they are pretty meh in a raid setting
Brew has its places in raid for the buff
its a buff bitch
If they gave Pwarr a natty bleed removal do you think that’d jump em up in rankings
the real question is.... which tank is getting a .7 glow up
I don’t wanna be a stinky dwarf
they always choose one and always overshoot the tuning
I think p pal
Did we get anything in .5? I didnt see that we did
I might scream if its Prot Pal... again
we were going to get nerfed but they changed their mind
P pal util is just that good
colossus got buffed
oh tru
“12.0.7 Changes
-Blood DK
-Death Strike now works how it used to. Have fun”

I got kicked from a 17 AA cuz I wasn't a dwarf. They racist
My old friend said they always nerf prot warrior
you have no idea how much of a buff that would be

I can live that pull without bleed removal
first mistake, doing a key above a 12
Yes that is what I do but its annoying having a big red box what communicates 0 information

Valid
Buh buh, they made a 3.4k saddle and 1% mount
^
"communicates 0 information"
true... I gotta start working on that


3.4k saddle is a fuckin JOKE
cring ass nae nae mount
its +1 mount
bro, I dont even have 3k yet

All the key mounts are +1 mounts
i know thats why i got it 
I didn't know this channel was all CASUALS
I will have 1k this xpac
not casuals, just enlightened
I treat M+ like the minigame it is
Gladless bandit. 🗞️
damn
that hurt too close to home
my warr is 2800 io still 
3s 
My priest is 3552 tho so thats aight
sry i will cry on my amani bear
Put this man on the tank banlist, good luck doing any content without us
I'm 2900 mmr in blitz, am I finally good @pastel summit?
Sold if you got that cr in the bag, though.
Getting the high mmr games in is rough.
I'm 1950 CR
Mmr is so bad in SS. Time to pack up into blitz homie
omg, Archi wrote a article about us

community sitting there for 30 minutes to get a brewmaster for their +13 "competitive"
(they are 45 years old)
Ill be real, the sooner blizz just makes all the tanks gods in dungeons
Also... I don't buy that article, I get rejected for keys my io is appropriate for, as a brew, a lot
the better off everyone will be
All non brew buffed soon pls
Like... they want me to be 3600 for 17s i stg
Jordan with the god tiered tweet
3600 for 17s lmfaoooo
Huh
dps who lfg keys are mongrels
Idk man. I'm 3468 rn and I get rejected all the time
@crude notchgood tweet reply to maddy, love u bye
All 17s is like 3500
People are stupid bro
yea, wow players take the minigame too serious
i think people who lfg keys for 10 hours a day deserve nothing but suffering 
They suck ass so they need the best possible damage comp to carry them

That’s exactly why I stopped wasting my life pushing io
speaking of which
The system is dogshit people’s mental are dogshit
Pvpers call it the main game
Pvp is the mini game
the only main game is Tmog and collection, everything else is temporary
facts
Raid is life bro
everything else is a vehicle to the main game
Idk
i like how peak turned around the meta and fotm rerolling avalanche in their discord
I’ll never be a dungeon hero again
raid? I raid for cool items, mog and achievements
Raid fucking sucks
I sit there with my thumb up my ass for 3 hours pulling bosses and hoping people dont fuck up for 5 minutes straight
Thid factually true. Even worse when its longer then 5 mins
And I say this as a dps main
Tank points the gloom wrong 5 minutes into dragons? whoop de dooooo
Healer cant make it to me to dispel fear? whoop de doooo
i mean i'm a teacher what i can i say, i'm used to telling 25 idiots what to do for 4 hours straight
Adds can be gripped or kicked in dreamrift whoop de doo
Why would I spend 6-8 hours on a Saturday applying to io keys and maybe getting to attempt half of them if not less while also failing half of the half I even get in when I could instead be smoothing over my wife with my time which leads to a great night
The math ain’t mathing
Forget that nonsense bro
"hey look rat is posting something interesting, nah lets talk about the good ole raid is boring thing that's been talked about before!"
Just wait for some buds to get their resils and then run their keys 
Everybody figures this out eventually.
Yee exactly
Gear is a means.
I'm sure they still get a million questions a day asking the same shit though
aight
but its a good sentiment
idk i just dont have much to say about that lol
when im more interested if Pash is getting lunch
opening skyhold today feels like groundhog day
They have the same iterations of questions as us with ITF/hr or stuff like that, nothing surprising
Circles stay circly forever
anyone wanna run abundance for 7 toons for me?
Nim always seems ticked off 
race discussions, food discussions, tier lists linked
I swear skyhold has an inordinate amount of gymbros, (see: protein vote earlier)
at least 1/4 apex is protection warrior relevant
the most interesting thing is when someone posts a log
0 apex prob bis in blitz. 

Idk how grief it is but when I want to be a coward i drop ravager & Tough as nails, have never considered 1/4
Also wonder why they remembered to apply the 50% pvp nerf to the apex 4pc bonus
actually wasn't it from abberus set
Im soon back from long weekend, I hope ill find 2 Voidcores in my bag tonight
tough as nails is ok to drop
IDK about Ravager
any world where id use double on use trinkets these days? currently running heroic lights company and champion heart of ancient hunger and just happened to roll the solar core igniter on myth and now cant figure out what my trinkets should look like
tough as nails seems to vary in usefulness between dungeons
you will
tough as nail has become basically a staple talent in my mind
i dont see myself dropping it
The big Q is : did they reset my roll data
No need to drop rav, its a passive now
feel like its too good unless the dungeon has fewer mobs and/or fewer autoers
It's goated but sometimes I'm a pansy and want last stand
do I keep rolling in NPx
Archon recommended has tan being dropp3d
no shame in running 2 on-use
just remember the on-use shared cd
id run heart and solerflare
When me tank, me roll with gaze + solar core
When i have pwar looy spec enabled in Skyreach it shows a different solar trinket in loot pool. Is that other one any good
I lucked into myth heart and gaze, so those are kinda locked in
I swear If I dont ima crash out mid raid
id like to have gaze for sure but warrior is alt, not really raiding
everytime i delve into my logs you turn me down 🙁
I drop tough as nails as thane but tbh I would never drop it as colossus
Just too valuable
so i looked at mwahis guide and i found something interesting
this is the "im scared give me more health" spec i play sometimes, (yes i know talents dont fix bad play but it's a bandaid)
No whirl blade 
oh god
why would you drop
5% overall damage
instead of Enduring Alacrity
???
or Focused Vigor
enduring alacrity is thr stam haste one?
well the argument was from some guy the 4/4 apex talent only hits a few guys
because it has a really small area of effect
That’s not really a blasphemous build
but it is
yeah

Whe 5% dr isnt target capped is it?
Tan for indom is not a hot take
how much haste u got
Dropping apex makes no sense, there’s no quantitative basis for it
like 1450 with flask my rl hates me
the no apex ones seem weird cos they're in theory grabbing more dr stuff but isn't it not only a ton of aoe dmg and single target dmg but dr via the 5% from shield slam frontal
idk weirdge builds
Ok was about to say if u lower haste and taking ITF would be weird in such a strange build
it is a hot take, because there are talents right next to indom which provide much less impact, also running indom with just ONE rage intake talent (instigate) means you need to play frothing
find myself with 2 sparks and no myth 1h weapon, id be silly to craft this close to vault day right?
I DIDN’T SEE No RAVAGer
more rolls on reset?
holy moly
no whirling blade is basically objectively wrong in my mind
Is there a spec you could recommend that takes last stand + indom with minimal trolling
But more on the warrior topic, does anyone have any tips on gather for the first pull of pit as colossus? It’s a pretty wide pull and I find myself struggling to gather before dps go ham even when I tell them not to
aim your revenges
gotcha
dps holding off for 2 secs is gonna make everybody do more dmg
if you can make them understand this it can help
That’s not a problem, I am trying to get shit from down the hill too and dps is usually not able to hold off that long
Just doing the top of the hill feels so troll with lust
I like to throw spear on the caster and then charge into main pack and then aoe stomp ==> avatar> aoe stomp. No threat issues
kinda feels like the way to fix colossus is just to make revenge have 20yd range
the animation already fits it
that'd be nice
Yes when you have 2 dps near 1m dps and I’m doing 500-600k as the tank
It feels troll
ngl I was enjoying colossus but certain gathering issues occurredd and just made me switch back to thane
Bc you waste half the lust walking to the next pack lol
As it stands I just play thane for that key
True and real, lol
I love to press drums with a lust class in the group the moment the gold shield drops
I miss thunderous roar
It was such nice snap threat though
Didn’t bring much
mods break his legs
I’m not gonna lament much about warrior kit atm bc honestly
as if warr doesn't still suffer from "does damage in an area" abilities
We feel really good lol
Not in a giant area!
But our kit is very solid
Pwar needs 360° shield
Two number 9's
no we arent
Yall realize you probably won’t see class balance again until 12.0.7 right?
stop spreading misinformation
sorry brew that wasnt directed at you
cause u right
To compete with brews, id say yes they and all the other tanks would need
Pwarr needs 500% aura buff and block from all directions and shield slam should kick and we should automatically remove all debuffs
We need a class tree pruning
Just play the game and stop giving a shit about the “meta stats”
Or brew nerf whichever
"to compete with brews" while doing 12s
Shield warr needs buffed
nah we're good
we’re more than fine
what needs pruning from class tree tho
War is 100% fine, imo we are underrated vs brew
All the 2p thoroughput talents at the bottom
They should remove shields and make us a 2h parry tank and give bdk shield and call them protector blood death knights and call us parry warrior so we can still be pwarr
Let me take fun shit damnit
As brew im doing ~20k more dpa than my pwar and my brew has worse gear

stop spreading bullshit
microscopic mother

Brew doesn’t have more dps potential than war
People might do more dps as brew but that isn’t because it’s better
-_- its true though. Maybe if I use dps stance it would be more competitive?
Like I’d love to play with spear

get yoself a short queen dom, call her your microscopic mommy
it is not true
halt
cease
Ur saying that pwar does the same or more dps than brew in keys?
“Yes huh you don’t pay my sub”
no, im saying YOU are not doing 20% more dps as a brew with less gear
especially YOU
the guy that never remembers priority lists
for that to happen, brew would have to be doing 50% more damage than prot warrior
and its not
I’m saying that, yes. A similarly geared prot war and brewmaster are going to do similar damage and if brew sees an edge it’s only going to be at the extreme end where folks are making very large pulls
Self inflicted, miserable community deserves it and worse
Just saw that too
But if you look at wcl, for example you look at a 15 key damage breakdown for tanks for like AA - there is representation of every tank pretty evenly
People are toxic though
If brews were dominant that would not be the case
Theres been a tank shortage for multiple expansions
New tank yesterday fucked up LFR chimmy and was getting railed for it
Felt bad for the new guy
brew definitely has a performance edge but i think most of the reason this season is insanely lopsided in lower keys is because it's become very easy and forgiving to play lol
You say I dont remember prio lists but I was the one that questioned the priority list and the result was that were things missing from it. Ref when I was asking about where throw spear should go and it wasn't in iv st rotstion at all
?????? no recommended builds take spear
Throw silence spear
Not the aoe thing
he talking about wrecking throw
wrecking throw? you mean the thing we almost always use for the utility?
That’s an axe
And one of my favorite additions to the warrior toolkit
how much haste do we want approx?
see pins for haste topic
all of it, but not at the cost of ilvl or strength
more
as much as you can get
Could also be a sword or a mace
It was NOT in the ST dps rotation. I asked where it should go and then ppl realized it should go in x spot and then mwahi added it. There was something else in the aoe prio list too I dont remember
Ironically they named the talent javelin and one handed spears don’t even exist
wtg blizz
says i am throwing my weapon....... but ngl the animation itself appears static
Because it’s a utility button that does damage?
It’s not a rotational button
Tbf in Pepegas defense
it was forgotten about because it's like a 0.001% optimization to use it on CD in the rare cases you don't need the silence or shield break, who care
I throw my wrecking throw usually right after i shield charge, since both 45 sec cd so try to align them
There are times when you should use it for damage
It is a utility button but it still have a place in dps rotation. Imo guide should include it if it has a place in fps rotation
is stacking haste rly that good in terms of defensive troughput? surely it has a cap
Yeah.
Is shockwave in your rotation?
well it should be used for dps actually
Not one you're really gonna run into easily.
it does solid dam
No you dense blob. Shock does not do dps
1188 haste for ITF swap, then stack crit is what I would do if I was playing Prot
It does damage
Ohh I didnt know
Should Shockwave go into aoe rotation??
EIGHT HUNDRED
It’s not in the rotation boys
Hollyy
yeah but wrecking does actually do respectful amount of dam vs shockwave
should be using it on cd basically
lol no it does 20% of attack power
It’s not micro okay it’s average
wrecking does 600%
Oh 100% but primarily it’s used for the shield damage and silence
tbh the damage rider on shockwave kinda messes with some stuff so i wish it didnt
its def a holdover from when they wanted shockwave to be a capstone damage talent 
Outside of shield damage and silence yeah I’m sure you can use it rotationally bur that isn’t its primary purpose
When it's your turn to stop multiple casts yuh
Never understood that, shockwave as a dps talent is just poor man’s thunderclap
Ideally on page with team that you're doing it to avoid overlap
I love the Colo shockwave
they should combine shockwave and thunder clap and make every tclap stun, ez game design
missing my 2 sec spammable clap root
When talking about the dps priority all secondary effects like cc and silence should not be considered. When determining dps rotstion the only question is "does this maximize my dps"
Whether you should use your dps/utility button for dps or utility depends on the player and situation. Depends on users brian
ngl tho kinda like how they made wrecking throw light up now when a shield/barrier is on a dude, actually helps me notice it better
Yeah it’s dope
Ok fair but if you use it rotationally and then a shield goes up, you just unoptimized your damage
If the enemy has a shield where does wrecked throw go in dps rotation? Is it more damage than ss? Thunder blast?
That’s not true, you have to think about it from the other side. If this skill gets used for utility how does that impact the rotation.
Also cooldowns come into play because while it may have a theoretical place in the prio list in reality you may never actually be in a place where youd press it
if the enemy has a shield it's top
If you aren't using it on cd for bosses then you're doing something wrong, most dungeons this season have some good shield break to be gained from it even without the silence
this is where game knowledge /experience comes into play.. basically should know where andd when which mobs get barriers... also know which mobs u gonna silence.. between all of these events just throw it after shield charge
Imagine if you had put put this much effort into playing warrior, you’d close the gap on your BrM
truer words have never been spoken
Rhino is so wise
Pressing Ignore pain on cd, instructions unclear now I have no rage

Why do you use it right after shield charge if you have tb and ss available and enemy doesnt have shield up?
Is anyone here managing to pull everything before the first boss in skyreach on 17+ and live?
I bet a monk can
I did it on 16 and “live” is questionable
You can throw it while charging

cuz i want to line it up on the 45 sec cd, personally plus it does more damage than a ss and a tb
I didn’t die per se, I also ran for my life and heroic lept off the boss platform
Can you leap back to spawn?
I lept down the stairs and ran
Then lock gated back to boss plat once they made it to me
Because I am a bitch
it does more damage than any of those, so you optimally do want to press it on CD. it just doesn't do anything else or interact with your kit in any way so it really is a tiny optimization
I'm one alg away from resil 17s
I tried to tank them and after like 15s I realized that was a very bad plan so off leaping I went
We have no lock, but noted. Maybe I just gotta kite better
Roid why did you panic
Two dps got blown off the platform and the mobs were dying slowly
And I ran out of shield wall charges
Seemed like the right time to panic
that pull is aids if you dont have coordinated cc
Can’t panic. Can’t let the mobs sense fear
but also at non 20s level is just unnecessary
I don’t think it’s worth it
This is the iv prio for st Mt. It says tb, ss, tc are all higher prio than wrecked throw. Is it wrong?
:(
you are overthinking it
many such cases
the biggest thing you should take away is that it barely matters either way. idk, i'd probably put it below tb 2 stacks so you don't waste charges but above SS. but mostly i don't think to press it because it doesn't really matter lol
Using it in that priority nets the highest DPS.
Putting wrecking throw right above ss nets the highest dps?
pepega using any portion of your brain to optimize wrecking throw placement in your dps priority when you're getting hit in the back a ton is not optimal
Ty I didnt know and was doing it all wrong this whole time
Pressing your buttons in the most optimal order possible nets the highest dps
The more you know
ty for the addition 
pepega, if a mob is shielded
you read the tooltip
how much does wrecking throw do?
500% more damage right? its on the tooltip
so
hey nimchip you showed me this yesterday...
and i'm thinking something that idk if makes sense.... does it matter which lasher dies first?
if the second cast lasher dies first it's better? or any lasher dying will get the same results?
throwing it to silence a mob so it groups better therefore doing the most overall group dps 
what would wrecking throw be in the priority if it does 6 TIMES more damage
No. Using it like it is in IV.
I know it does MORE damage idnt if its more than others (especially since some effects have hidden dps bc they give cdr). Also my question was where does wt go if enemy IS NOT shielded
Wrecking throw is a goat 🐐
why are we trying to minmax wrecking throw today
I use it to silence and drag or to delete a shield
pepega
Ok got it thats all I need to know ty. Praise be to the correct iv guide
Not a problem, just a more fun convo we had over wrecking throw 🤣
I like field dressing
i like salad dressing

Saladar the boss?
field dressing over wrecking throw is very questionable
when there are other talents you can swap easily to it
so yeah i guess i'd have to read up on that one
No
Well if people would stop gaslighting tanks this wouldn't be a problem 
It wasn’t wrecking throw vs field dressing
It was field dressing vs frothing berserker
wuh
on the first AA pull, the priority targets are always vile lashers, if your dps isn't prioritzing them, your odds of failing that pull just skyrocket
it does not matter which order
as long as one or two die fast
Someone was field dressing and not frothing and Jakey started a very minor rant about it
And then Petri vs Jakey on the topic of field dressing happened
as long as one is dead, the bleed is super manageable and dps can easily swap to the flies
while of course juggling enrage soothes
I had DPS on a 10 actually focus lashers first. That pull went so smooth
yeah it makes a huge difference when people prio target correctly
and moreso with an aug evoker
This can be said for just about any pull 
well sure, but cauterize
I do like the new left side route for AA
just go in and kill vex first and go clockwise
Idk if there's actually tank shortage, just none that are expendible or you can throw around
aka DF S4
theres not a tank shortage, there is a brewmaster shortage
cause they are all currently busy in keys
bl on boss?
That’s true. There’s always a tank shortage
Yep you can Bloodlust the boss and adds
Theres just not enough ppl playing it
You can funnel adds right in
I figured that would be healers this season cause a lot of random splash damage
Give wars a shout for Bloodlust
They just dont play it
it make sense
If I ask any of our DHs to spec into Veng they’d have an aneurysm
Bringing in paladin hammer swirls from Diablo 2 I don't see why not warriors would have more party buff shouts
At least one tank not bringing BL is the dumbest shit to this day.
CANT GIVE UP PURPLE BEAMMMMMMMMMMMZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
The ones without Brez should get lust
But the problem is I’m selfish and I don’t want to press lust
Shamans get Skyfury+BL. Warrior should also give BL idgaf.
The tema in my guild has 2 dps warriors nithe rof them play tank, at least the dks do whent they sre forced to on bosses

But grips not a raid buff guys

realish question
Grips are a raid buff. Isn’t that what blizz said
and 2 hander MH with a shield
cause we didnt have rolls when we used 2 sparks on our MH
and I wanted a max level MH since we werent running mythic week 1
I used sparks on my mh and shield
i'm saying if we were a 2h + shield class
then to craft weapon and shield you'd need three sparks
about 5 seconds into the fight this happened both pulls and clearly we wiped both times, so someone called it
straight nerf
Uhm actually it’s 4 sparks, 6 if you make a shield too 🤓
pash i'm old i can't keep up with all these new fangled changes
i'll just sum it up as i suspect it was an alts run
This screenshot is nigh incomprehensible lmao
my log thingy was one of the addons i've been turning off this week
Turning off logs. Blasphemy
How do y'all do the beginning of pulls? When you're still collecting everything and moving into the "final" position.
Because It feels like that's the only time I ever come close to death as Prot. After that the healer can usually ignore me for the most part
Shield Wall
yeah i usually have that up and running
you need to reduce the amount of back hits you take
on a gather its pretty easy to forget about taking them
you also can use heroic throw a lot
Let them come to you
Range is great
it tried the first pull in seat multiple times yesterday and just charging the first pack and throwing the other two works really nice
this pack pulled somehow
i thought they only charge after they are at you already
i tried it like 6 times
In m0 to test the mechanic
they charge when they are at a distance from you
they came running all the time
I’ve met my quota of fucks today, I don’t want to work anymore, someone trade me
i love seeing screenshots of other ppls keybinds and how different they are from mine
well that's weird then because i was standing right in front of the middle pack and heroic throwing the other two from there
No charge
I really want to optimize mine
mine are probably horrific
i feel like i am using revenge far too often because it is at my right thumb
and ss is at 3 which is why i don't use it that often while moving
because pressing 3 while moving is harder
it doesn't matter one bit to me where the keybinds are when i stand
but once i move
spellsteal it gg
