Pretty sure should uncheck indom

fringe mural
#

The most effective way would be to craft a heroic shield, upgrade it with voidcore

#

And save the myth crests for the myth drop that way

plush tendon
#

theres no point in worrying about saving myth crests

#

especially for a fresh toon

#

0 chance yall go from 0-900 mythic crests

#

well, now 0-1000 on Tues

fringe mural
#

do you know if he farms 900 in a day?

#

Lol

kindred turret
plush tendon
#

if someone farms 900 myth crests in a day....id be concerned

fringe mural
#

no pain no gain

lusty grotto
#

it depends on which dungeons deal more magic damage and which dungeons deal more physical damage

fringe mural
#

probably not even possible

kindred turret
#

@lusty grotto Thanks bud!

plush tendon
#

whats the maximum number of crests you can get per hour

lusty grotto
#

I dont persoanlly like Last Stand

severe star
#

assuming they could get carried in a 10

lusty grotto
#

i never talent it

severe star
#

which is 12 crests

fringe mural
#

16 per 12 key per 20 min, so idk like 50/hour

lusty grotto
#

but i provided the option just in case

severe star
#

I guess maybe a 12

kindred turret
plush tendon
#

also gotta include a full 9/9 mythic clear

#

carry

#

if we are going for absolute max myth crests

fringe mural
lusty grotto
fringe mural
#

20 hours of 12 keys then without myth raiding

plush tendon
#

yea, I legit think its impossible to get 900 myth crests in a 24 hour window

fringe mural
#

A little bit of eating and no sleep

lone wren
fringe mural
#

fits

plush tendon
#

you could prob do 3 keys a hour at best?

fringe mural
#

yes

lusty grotto
#

you would end up hating the game

fringe mural
#

in a day

lusty grotto
#

speed running to burn out

jagged pier
#

I dunno i did keys all day on satursay on shammy

#

Thats was fun

#

Wont be doing it again in a while tho

lone wren
fringe mural
#

not with fresh gear you don't

plush tendon
#

gotta add in the fact this would be a fresh toon

jagged pier
#

Thats really group dependrnt

plush tendon
#

so lets assume a 4 man carry

jagged pier
#

Your looking at 19 mins for nost pugs

lone wren
#

But I guess it was wensday

#

And voidcores were there and my resto shaman was max gear so insta invites

#

Yeah waiting for invites etc I think u are looking at 2 dungeons hour

fringe mural
#

yo i'm a fresh prot tank and i'm gonna get you through that dungeon in 10 mins lets go guys

#

People be like yeaaaaah sure

#

drops dead at first lust pull

#

'Welcome to jackass'

dusky canopy
#

You just need like 3 gamers in the key and you can speed run it the only one you can’t really boost is the tank

plush tendon
#

im just trying to figure out the Max number of myth crests a new toon can earn in a 24 hour window

crisp ocean
#

but some do more

#

and some less, also depends on dungeon

crisp ocean
#

if you are a solo player

#

different if u in a group

#

cuz you probably gonna spam same key, and then you need to get invited there

desert fern
#

hey guys, is there a guide for prot warrior u guys recommend on youtube

lone wren
crisp ocean
#

Seat first pull is hard asf, cuz of the champions

fringe mural
#

do it the nim way by going around and gather, or do it the other way, charge into first group and pull the rest via ht

#

they are too close to charge if you charge the middle of the front pack and dont move

desert fern
lofty warren
fringe mural
#

i tried it like 10 times in m0 and it worked every time

#

and then used it in real keys

but surprisingly they just ran towards me

crisp ocean

i think my pulls have been too big lol

lusty grotto
plush tendon
lusty grotto
#

you have to pray for a whirling blade proc and bloodsurge

crisp ocean
fringe mural
#

i think it's important you don't move too far to the left or right or the other champ will charge you when pulling from the middle

#

yes, mwahi is the guide man

crisp ocean
#

i mean

#

the dude that you spell reflect with the 2 champions

fringe mural
#

oh yeah

crisp ocean
#

ye

fringe mural
#

easy as cake as prot

crisp ocean
#

knock back and then charged with 2 champions lol

fringe mural
#

Sr turns the entire pull into tank'n'spank

crisp ocean
#

yup

fringe mural
#

i forgot it once but charged just in time lol

#

We even have a failsafe should we use sr wrong

#

idk if drac jump works, i think it does

#

If you press spacebar on a dracthyr while getting knocked back it cancels the knockback

fringe mural
#

might be helpful on prot pala

crisp ocean
#

but best race for any tank rn is dwarf

crisp ocean
fringe mural
#

yeah sure you can

#

but there are always knockbacks

#

and for classes that can't charge like pala

#

it helps

#

also wing buffet can be really nice

#

Or shit, depending on how you use it

#

😄

crisp ocean
#

yeah true

#

yeah it would be good in MC

#

on the boss

fringe mural
#

knockback cancel on last boss

crisp ocean
#

most of the new dungeons have a knockback lol

fringe mural
#

yeah more than bleeds

#

Way more

#

as warrior you usually just charge back

#

But sometimes you don't want to get back to the boss, you just don't want to fly to your death

crisp ocean
#

true

fringe mural
#

for dps it's probably more useful

crisp ocean
#

yup

I’m ilvl 278 but only have 650k hp. Does that seem right?

Bricked a +17 AA after bird boss 2 I used throw knife at pack of 2 baby dragons to get them into full and that rng created ravager that the big dragon walked into and got aggrod okayge

ivory barn
lofty warren
#

The thing that doesnt go on cd and doesnt do any damage but is a ranged

fluid widget
#

Heroic throw?

lofty warren
#

Yes that

fringe mural
#

It goes on cd

#

and does do dmg

fringe mural
#

taunt is off cd

#

and ht procs ravager quite often tbh

lusty grotto
#

taunt doesnt proc ravager

fluid widget
#

I thought most AA routes skip the first Ravager pack to avoid the risk of the double pull

fringe mural
#

oh no

#

Sry i was talking about ht

lofty warren
lusty grotto
#

i dont agree

sweet egret
#

is the sim wrong to suggest dropping TaN?

lusty grotto
#

but 🤷‍♂️

lusty grotto
#

wait didnt you ask this like 15 days ago

fringe mural
#

A glitch in the matrix

#

They changed something

lofty warren
lusty grotto
#

i personally dont

#

but if you feel it does, then go for it

ivory barn
#

Only way to make that reviable is to buff the % hp given per rage spent

#

Make it back to the legendary 4% KEKW

sweet egret
ivory barn
#

Sorry that leggo was 1%/10 rage

sweet egret
#

so, this was mostly me wanting to know if you did the investigating 🥰

#

(so yes, we were talking about it 2-3 weeks ago)

lusty grotto
#

i forgot all about it

lofty warren
#

If blizz master said "hey pwar do you want an extra 10% hp for free?" I would think the answer would be yea

lusty grotto
#

its not for free

#

it costs 1 talent point

lofty warren
#

Yes, so its about what the tradeoff is between indom and whatever the other talent point

lusty grotto
#

10% hp wont do jack shit, DR is way more important in high keys

lusty grotto
#

indom can help if you're not kiting to offset periodic damage by healing it, but again in cases like NPX where you have heal absorbs you're kiting, so if you have no rage because youre kiting and if youre unlucky with bloodsurge/whirling-blade, then its effectively doing nothing

sweet egret
#

what is your suggested setup for simming m+/aoe?

#

3 min patchwerk 5 targets? more targets?

lusty grotto
#

1.5 min 5 target patchwerk

#

but TaN gets more value the higher the sim duration

sweet egret
#

I have been simming longer fights

ivory barn
#

I wanna try the deep wound 3 target execute cleave

lusty grotto
sweet egret
#

I am currently doing a sim for several of the setups too

lusty grotto
#

sorry, the higher the target count

#

TaN is not target capped

#

thats the important thing about it

#

everything else we do, that will be affected by stat changes is soft capped

#

this is a 10t sim

sweet egret
#

ok so that might be it

#

I feel like few pulls are 5 targets or lower

crisp ocean
#

is a hero gaze better than myth trinkets ?

sweet egret
lofty warren
#

Heroix gaze is better than lots of myth ones. It depends which

lusty grotto
sweet egret
#

this was me 10t/90 sec

lone wren
#

We use riadbots for tank? Nothing like qe live to check how well we will survive damage?

lusty grotto
#

you have a lot of talent changes, i just did one

#

minimize variables

lusty grotto
#

a gain in dps on stats means you gain the defensive portion

#

there are no defensive sims

#

the only thing you do not sim are purely defensive trinkets

jagged pier
#

Ill be hoenstly having bb is just not worth if thats the dps increase

#

From dropping somthing else for it

lusty grotto
#

ive been swapping bb for bs

#

like you did early on

fringe mural
#

I dropped bb for bsv

#

and kept TaN and EA

sweet egret
#

so you think bs and tan is the play? with fv and ea? and dropping what when I want bsv?

jagged pier
#

I just dont think over a key its worth it

#

Bs could be 1 or 2 extra avatars

lone wren
jagged pier
#

Over a key

fringe mural
lusty grotto
#

let me rename them

jagged pier
#

Like sims are all good but its a single instance compared to a while dungeon

lone wren
fringe mural
lone wren
#

Thanks

sweet egret
fringe mural
#

but has to be prot loot spec

jagged pier
#

Tbh

lusty grotto
#

i personally dont think the 3 swaps are that important, they are within the 1% dps change - talking specifically about EA, FV and TaN

jagged pier
#

U can drop bs for bsv if u wany

sweet egret
#

I mostly just play bsv in dungeons where I'd want a 3rd shield wall

lusty grotto
#

TaN's value though can be more than just an uncapped boost, since there's threat mods involved

fringe mural
sweet egret
#

I have moved on from that

#

if I fail, it's death

fringe mural
#

when i see the debuff it tells me i failed the pull before without looking at logs and bricking the key

sweet egret
#

I feel like it mostly procs in situations where I wouldn't have died anyway

#

so it doesn't tell me anything

#

but I started using it as I described, when I want another defensive

fringe mural
#

yeah on purpose it's great

lusty grotto
#

thats how it should be used

#

thats how i personally use it

fringe mural
#

i try to use it that way too

sweet egret
#

mostly I don't have it talented anymore

lusty grotto
#

anyway here you go, its renamed

#

you are correct that TaN in sims is less dps than the other two

#

unless there's some fucking TaN shit on the sims, which was what i wanted to figure out

#

but

fringe mural
#

But TaN scales better right?

lusty grotto
#

the disparity between the swaps is so minor

fringe mural
#

with targets

sweet egret
#

I get it, we go with feelycraft for this one 😄

lusty grotto
#

yeah, i just personally think TaN is worth it based on just that

#

threat mod, uncapped damage being the big two

fringe mural
#

high!

#

not just regular threat

#

it's high threat

lusty grotto
#

but honestly FV being a less dps loss than EA might change some of my BSV builds

#

it wont make a massive difference

sweet egret
#

I dont notice any difference in threat with or without it, for me TB has always been enough

fringe mural
#

what was fv again?

lusty grotto
#

right

#

by the time mobs are hitting you, you should have more than enough threat

#

youre not wrong

sweet egret
#

thanks for the clarifications

lusty grotto
#

i will say this

plush tendon
#

Tough as Nails does some serious damage in my keys

#

like 6%-7%

#

its pretty neat

dusky canopy
#

Warrior owns

#

if you have to kite... having an extra threat mod just before you step away might be worth it

plush tendon
#

MasteryMax Prot War

fringe mural
plush tendon
#

for max Tough As Nails value

jagged pier
#

Im probably the biggest TaN harter here, and thats because its too good for what it is and brings to much value

plush tendon
#

yea, it used to be turbo ass

#

the BDK version of TaN has a ICD on it

jagged pier
plush tendon
#

which makes it meh

fringe mural
#

I'm team TaN too

jagged pier
#

So its 100% not worth it

lusty grotto
#

oh actually thats a good point Augusto

#

@sweet egret remember mastery will help TaN get higher values due to increased crit block

#

lower mastery means TaN won't average as high damage

fringe mural
#

because it changes the sim value of mastery?

lusty grotto
#

i mean sure it does but thats not what im talking about

fringe mural
#

if we would set TaN as mandatory talent that is

lusty grotto
#

if youre high mastery, TaN will do more damage

thats an extremely subjective question

Pwarr is high apm which makes it very satisfying if you like slamming buttons

idk, pure math question, it's just damage

fringe mural
#

is 3% str such a teeny defensive component?

plush tendon

depends on the type of damage

mighty valley

it's all relative but considering this is an audience that has thought of 5% flat DR as teeny, sure lol

isn't this also 1% more parry?

Groups I've been running with say "pull till you have to wall, then pull 1 more pack", and I'm over here like peepostudy

yeah and die from dots

mighty valley
#

i might be wrong but i don't think raw crit chance gives you more parry? i thought that came from crit rating. but happy to be wrong

fringe mural
#

though the dots won't hurt you if you parried everything

#

like fire talons or heal debuff in npx

cerulean tusk
#

Depends on the effect, but in 90% of cases parrying denies the DoT

mighty valley
#

i presume you came to that 90% figure through rigorous science

cerulean tusk
#

10% comes from those "why I still die" moments of DRW

#

is it true warrior tanks get stronger in later seasons because of stat scaling?

no

Nah, we kinda come out maxed from the get go

well latest i actively played was legion

mighty valley
#

i'm not really sure it was ever true, our theorycrafting ability was just worse back in the day

plush tendon
#

but it is true that 'out of the box' early expansion post stat squish Prot War is quite durable compared to the other tanks

fringe mural
#

i really enjoyed becoming unhittable in bc

plush tendon
#

like Prot Pal which can struggle early without haste to keep SoTR up

mighty valley
#

now we know that dps warriors in vanilla both started off the best and became even more the best with better gear

plush tendon
#

but I have no clue

fringe mural
plush tendon
#

though it might be true of Prot Pal this expansion? I know with enough mastery then can get to 100% spell block

ivory barn
#

The 100% mastery build was funny

plush tendon
#

i think its something like 2k mastery? which in a later season might be doable and still maintain good haste

fringe mural
#

i think in cata you were able to get to either block, dodge or parry without sb up

#

and sb was just increasing your crit block chance

#

but you would always block with or without sb

if the players are good... it's probably gonna be able to push pretty high

I've heard mixed things about the veracity of WW monk, and also BM is BM

Like BM isnt awful in keys but it also doesnt really bring anything to a push comp

Are you making a comp with friends or trying to build from pug randos

ivory barn
#

Honestly idk, guild has there own comp and when I asked they were kinda like "go find yer own" vibe

coarse bay
#

Ele, rsham, and aug are the best lust options

mighty valley
#

building a push comp is kinda academic unless you have a stable of players who're good at everything, in reality you kinda just have everyone play what they're good at or pick the best looking pug players

and a monk tank

also rsham is good

plush tendon
#

I mained Prot War for raid which it excels in

coarse bay
#

Serious key pushers are either rerolled to fotm or playing with an established team

plush tendon
#

but there are much better options for keys

#

or you just role swap if you want to keep playing War

#

but again, context matters

#

for like 18s/19s

coarse bay
#

Ya theres not a small amount of teams with healer and tank roles swapping rn

plush tendon
#

comp aint a huge deal

coarse bay

Since mw and bear are both easier

None of those spend rage

undone beacon
#

If you're playing the spec correctly, you'll hit IP a lot naturally

#

As we have a lot of rage generation

lofty warren
#

We have rage gen. We dont have dps or spell block deadge

lusty grotto
#

3ppm (hastened) if you dont know how to decypher it

lofty warren
#

Even if I get a free revenge I often dont have a free gcd where it is the best thing to press

mortal vale
#

If I increase my dodge and parry does it increase the proc rate?

lusty grotto
#

sure

#

but you dont really care about free revenges

#

much less as thane

#

you dont press it over SS or TC

mortal vale
#

Then how can it be 3 procs per minute

lusty grotto
#

and as colossus, youre already slamming down revenges so whatever

lusty grotto
#

specifically a parry

#

we dont dodge, unless youre a night elf, and the chance is way too low

lofty warren
#

3 ppm is just what it can proc. Not how many times it'll proc and you should come it

mortal vale
#

so if my parry is 20% I will proc it 3 times a minute and if my parry is 40% i will still proc it only 3 times per minute?

lusty grotto
#

more parries means more chances

#

its not that complicated

#

why are you asking about it

#

again

#

we dont care about revenge procs

#

they are nice to have as it saves rage when you need to use revenge, but thats it

lofty warren
#

If you have 1 million% parry then how many times it'll proc per min.. 3 right?

mortal vale
#

I care about every little possible rage

lusty grotto

please wait a week

mortal vale
#

If its 3PPM or 3RPPM, then it procs an average of 3 per minute regardless of my parry chance.

mighty valley
#

you are correct that increasing your parry a lot will not make that much difference to your revenge proc rate, that's what normalized ppm systems are about

fringe mural

but i might bring a wow theorycrafting question into the next exam

if i can somehow do it sneaky enough they won't know it's from WoW

Thanks, looks like i was right

#

3 procs per minute modified by haste

lusty grotto
#

yes thats what i linked

#

to you

#

good job being right, after reading it

mortal vale
#

That means that regardless of my parry chance, it will proc on average of 3 times a minute (not including talents or haste).

#

assuming i parried 3-5 times in that minute.

#

The first link didnt have PPM or anything stated.

lusty grotto

ah ha!

#

are you sure

lofty warren
lusty grotto

really really sure?

not to mention

i literally told you

Just weird to pick up a class and them immediately come into the discord talking about parsing #1 in the world or smthn

Like we can have a discussion about proc rates all day, revenge procs dont really matter

But it is what it is

lofty warren

It would be nice if the proc made it free from rage cost and free from gcd

i wish i was a generational talent and could pick up a class and parse 1

ig im just a chud

mighty valley
#

don't we do enough off-gcd button presses

lofty warren
#

True actually it would have to be something free that also auto casts or the apm req would be too much

mortal vale
#

The first mistake you made was trying to convince me that we don't care about free revenge procs as MT. The free procs are a god send and very important. Secondly, you don't understand how dodge works and it's effect on parry. Lastly, you should realize that there is a set point that more Haste will get you more free revenge procs compared to increasing parry.

lusty grotto
#

you are the one making a mistake here

#

if youre electing to use a gcd to spend rage

mortal vale

Really so then tell me how does Dodge and parry work?

green parse at item level 240 is #1 in the world for item level on that boss

lusty grotto
#

if you think spending rage (or not spending in the case of procs) on a spender that deals less damage than a generator as thane which buffs Thunder clap primarily, and Execute secondly, where you could use a simple IP cast to speed up on Avatar cdr and/or proc it, you seem to have your priority entirely wrong

you also did better than 32 other people at that item level

as soon as you optimize your dodge rating your parses are gonna go through the roof, don't even worry about it

At such a low ilvl whether your secondary stats are good play an outsized role since ppl with 240 are rolling with whatwver they can get

15 TC cpm vs 22

mortal vale

yes because i have less haste

lusty grotto

19 ss cpm vs 23

9.5 revenge cpm vs 6.8 revenges (this is the #1)

#

guess whos casting way too many revenges

#

"i have less haste"

#

but still casting 9.5 cpm worth of revenges

#

because apparently parry and dodge are important for something you should barely cast

mighty valley
#

the #1 player doesn't know how to optimize dodge rating for more revenge procs

mortal vale

I think my haste was like 22% compared to the other guy with 35-40%

so of course less

its simple math

Haste dont do that much

look it doesn't matter, just keep dropping the top parses as your ilvl increases and we will all bow down
