Landslide knocks you back. You intercept back in. That's the end of the mechanic.
Thats the landslide (iirc molten crash if you dont have SB or SR up)
But yeah, basically what Crusher said
shoulkd i not hgave my back to the wall?
Just spam intercept when you are in the air
Just have Shield Block up when you charge back in so you don't get knocked to Africa by Molten Crash
You don't need your back to the wall; Landslide is a very small knockback
And if you don't fuck up Molten Crash, you won't get knocked by it
k im gonna stop having back to wall
I dont do that on warrior, I just angle the boss so he doesnt hit anyone else with any ability
if you have your back on the wall sometimes he knocks you up the wall
and he starts climbing and shit
it's awkward
@timid jay his perfect scenario was for the PK dot i believe, that or the imonar shrapnel
Uhm
usually the DH dies
@prisma crane What?
thymes perfect SS of debuffs to compare stuff
ooooooh
Tell him to stop tunneling lol
You had me so confused there
i felt way safer and les panicked when i didnt have my back against wall
never doinb trhat again
Idk. Never had a need to do that
dont need to, but it's cleaner
Also, @timid jay you don't have to charge in to prevent him from moving. He casts Molten Crash immediately after Landslide so he won't move anyway
^ truth
^ can confirm as slow dk man he doesn't move more than a step
β
lolol
Your DPS know they need to the molten thing into the spikes right?
And actually kill them?
need to kite*
i did more healing than healer too
tell the hunter and healer to stand right next to boss
so the first spikes spawn super close
to be fair, you should on that boss
get the add in asap
There's no damage unless you fuck up
you get 3 spikes total before magma wave
you only need 1
Not to be pessimistic but I'd be shocked if you got it since the adds are going to take longer to kill, especially if they're not kiting them into the spikes properly
theyre sayin the DH was bad so maybe he was holding us back
Oh well, done is done Β―_(γ)_/Β―
never gonna find an orc DK :/
Why do you need an orc DK
stupid love fest achievement
You have time to find one
i barely see any DKs around
Look further back, they dont run fast
LOL
π
hahah
see this is where bein able to talk ot horde would come in handy
void elves have anb unfair advantage
couldn't DH already do that?
Actually, what is the goblin language called?
Pretty sure it's called Goblin
Wow, thats boring
Acherus
can i go there?
You can go near there
You'll get dragged away if you're not a dk
It's over Broken Shore
No, it's phased
grr
Honestly your best bet is to hang out in Stormwind
Since that's where they go after finishing their intro shit
Oh

Wait, if you go to Orgrimmar on a PvE server, can they attack you or do you have to hit them first?
They can attack you
Its only contested areas (yellow) where you can turn it off
And friendly ofc
But if a horde came to SW, they couldn't attack anyone there that didn't attack them first right?
Oh yeah works that way
Dream achieved boys:
Easy
Lol, there are little trees that spawn in one of the Argus invasions that give 75% haste
Bonich?
yeh
Yeah
Damn I'm good π
see off topic for pic of my dog with his tongue out. just sayin.
lol
I GOT AN ORC DK
Spotify party in the mods section
this question may be stupid af
but str gem or haste gem?
and in the same vein.... 100 haste 2 % ms cape or 200 str
yeah but is it worth it to use a str gem over a haste gem
what gcd addons do you guys use?
What's a GCD addon?
yeah..what?
uhh a something that show your gcd. easily. rather than a normal gcd sweep on top of skill icons
specially if your using custom weak auras icons, it cant put an gcd sweep on top of the icons when its not a cooldown trigger
I don't know why you would want something that did that
GCD is both very short and regular
tells you when you can use the next skill in your rotation rather than mashing the next button and getting it casted XD
having a 1.5s or less timer every time you press a button is not useful
You won't get as many casts in as much time if you try to do it that way because your reaction time will add up to a lot of missed GCDs
And you'll be staring at a 1.5 second timer
Instead of at mechanics
Holy glow batman
it only glows when its suitable to use XD
also the icon doesnt show up when it should not be used XD
like the Ignore pain, it only shows up, when I have Vengeance: Ignore Pain and >= 39 rage lol
looks messy if all icons are up all time XD
Ignore Pain
Vengeance: Ignore Pain Buff (True)
Rage >= 39 (True)
Ignore Pain Buff < 3s (True)
then show Ignore Pain Icon
something like that lol
WA has a toggle for gcd on spell cooldown icons
yeah only on cooldown icons D:
Just out of curiosity, why do you have the Ignore Pain Buff < 3s thing in there?
@warm plinth so uhm if it doesnt break I can still continue weaving
But why do you need that? You're either going to overwrite it or it'll be gone by the time you cast the next IP. It's a stacking buff. Guess I just don't understand why you would need it.
didnt realized its a stacking buff D:
I thought it just resets the duration D:
god damn description doesnt say shit about stacking D:
had to test it myself haha, thanks @warm plinth
gotta cast it on cd + max efficiency then
Er, no problem*
Just tanked a +19 Seat. It was great until it wasn't. haha
lol
first time warrior btw lol, still learning XD
Welcome!
The prot warrior guide in #268491842637660160 is a really good place to start @deep blade
thanks! haha, I learned a new thing from @warm plinth too π
btw, if I'm gonna cast revenge/ignore pain (weave) on every time the rage/vengeance allows it. I would have no rage to include shield block in the rotation?
I'm planning to go with almost 100% SB uptime with SB -> NF > SB
if thats even possible.
overall uptime, it's not possible regardless of what you use unless you pick HR with ~40% haste but that's not a thing and it's not something to worry about
since SS has top prioirty and doesn't affect the vengeance weave you don't have to only press IP>Rev>IP>etc. integrate SS and TC in the rotation and you'll have plenty of rage
along with RFDT there's no such thing as not enough rage for SB
what I'm thinking to conserve a bit of rage for SB is, cast reduced Revenge (Vengeanced Buff) when the Rev Vengeance buff duration falls down < 5s
pretty sure I'll be refreshing with Free Rev > IP Weave
Should folks level their cooking skill? If so, what is the best food for tanks?
stregnth feast > Azsharai salad > stam feast @fair sky
whatever the name of the feast is, just to get the best benefit eat it in dps spec
so this what I'm doing right now
Cast SS on CD
Cast TC on CD
cast IP on 20 rage just to start the weaving (unless free Rev procced then cast Rev first for V:IP to start the weaving)
cast Rev on Free Proc (proc V:IP)
cast IP on V:IP + >= 39 Rage (proc V:Rev)
cast SB when I have 2 charges
cast NF when I have < 2 SB charges and SB Buff is missing (SB gap / downtime filler)
cast Devastate when there's nothing else
what do you guys think?
cast devastate
are you using indom
yes
dont
not sure, feels like more of a tanking talent XD
I actually played devastator while I'm leveling and it felt like, I generate more rage and sometimes I'm even at max rage lol
yeah seems like a better talent
When the fuck did Shade start casting missiles on random targets
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
kk gonna switch to devastator as soon as I get to a safe place
thanks for the tip π
I already feels like a better warrior just by chatting here in warrior discord lol π
I'm doing too much error by doing things myself XD
@warm plinth might happen on a pre-pull
It was right in the middle of the fight
It shouldnβt happen unles someone else taunted or you died and lost threat
I was DPSing on my windwalker. So guessing maybe I peeled? I definitely didn't taunt D:
To take threat off a tank on non-skittish you have to be doing 10x their dps which seems unlikely
Unless the tank melded or something dumb
Hey guys can we solo mythic blackhand now? as like 968 prot?
been struggling too find wa'
wa's that suits my needs, i primarily need to track shieldslam procs revenge cooldown and my rage anyone that has a slick wa for those kind of stuff?
Wait you need a WA for SS resets?
SS on cd goes with procs as well, just make an SS icon with action usable trigger. it'll pop up every time SS is available.
why wouldnt i need one?
SS on CD (+ Procs)
SS Icon
Triggers 1
Action Usable
Just now sure how your UI is setup that it wouldn't show if it was off cooldown
well i dont wanna stare at my bars when playing
I mean, I guess I can see that
@hazy path If you can get past Blast Furnace, you will be able to kill BH easily
Blast Furnace was the one where they made it so you don't need the mind control anymore right?
Yes
But it still takes about 12 minutes
More if you don't deal 1m+ DPS or fail to interrupt the engineers
@last loom I'm uploading a short clip of how my own WA works, watch it, maybe it suits your needs.
ah here it is @last loom https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pisdt-UMPEE
it's not yet complete, still improving it as I learn to be a proper warrior lol
So I'm going to have to off tank varimathas...only prot legendaries I have would be mannaroths, prydaz, crafted belt, soul ring. Best options going to be soul + prydaz? Also, you guys still using 4p/2p? I have mostly mythic tier 21 and heroic tier 20.
guess i shouldnt say off tank...but third tank
if those are your only options, yeah much better than rethu's
pretty much just take highest ilevel after t21 2pc, the tier combo isn't needed considering that job isn't threatening in the slightest for survivability
just need a SR for every add spawn and you're fine
ok great, thanks
skorchz i think the icons are too small for me
i woudlnt notice them barely
thx anyway
how is highmountain racial compared to normal tauren?
defensively likely better, the verse and flat dr is pretty strong and the DR will scale better once BFA goes live
@last loom icons size can be changed anyway as with any wa icons π
on Medivh, do I need to have SR active when his channel ends to stop the dot from being applied?
not dot, umm the stackthing
debuff, and i think it's applied as soon as you reflect it
The debuff happens at the end of the cast, so you can't reflect it unless you reflect the last tick of his cast.
That being said, it's not a 5 second channel so if you SR at the beginning it'll still be up for the debuff
right, looked at the timestamps
it's when he finishes it
so essentially just don't precast it
well can't really precast it anyways as it's not on a fixxed timer, right? π
@broken kite yeah I kinda removed my GCD timer, also went devastator. π
good call π
I know it's unrelated to your w/a set, but i'd also make your own health more prominent
personal taste tho
GF is about to tank her second mythic+ ever and we made her go from a +2 to a +7 XD
She's 880 ilevel
can you still avoid shared suffering from attumen by leaping out a second early?
Yes, but he will still sometimes cast it again @slate obsidian You can also intercept a party member to get out of it
just noticed, he'll start the cast again, but the phase ends before he finishes the second cast, kinda weird
Hey guys, Is there any good hi level m+ prot warrior streams ?
@humble monolith twitch.tv/domnusblade
was recommended here earlier for pushin highkeys frequently. Maybe some other streams out there. Im not a twitcherπ β
@warm plinth wait..cheesing suffering soaks works?
Yeah
Cant wait to fail that one!π
Just leap/intercept out at .2-.3 seconds but your group has to know you're doing it or whoever is left in it wil die
And he does sometimes cast it again, so you may have to do it 2-3 times before he gets back on Midnight
Yeye got it thx π
Is 4pc2pc STILL better when I can use mythic t21 4pc? Ofc t20 4pc are mythic too.
yeah u can leap out of it
I heard at a certain ilvl the T21 gets better
mythic t21 level matches the 4+2
healing wise
Of course then you don't get a crazily reduced cooldown on shield wall
well, most of the SW crazy CD is TWF
you get pretty good rage gen with gloves over TWF
so teh CDR isnt way off
the*
but yea, that's bascially the main diff
No need for Mannoroth?
gloves instead of TWF, Bracers are still bis defensively for 99% of situationas
Then I won't have to spend time and gold for t20 mythic. Yay
I mean t20 mythic + titanforge
hey guys, going to level my warrior up the coming days and was just wondering how prot is at doing that? Currently sitting at lvl 21, so going from there
Considering the new adjustments made to leveling etc.
fine really, while questing you can pull a bunch without worry of dying and quick queues into instances
For leveling purpose prot is totally fine.. like all tanks u can bigpull openworld mobs easy and once u hit Tool the instantinvites are DROPPIN!:heart_eyes:
@ lvl 110 u gonna be a bit fcked up till u sharpen up ur gameplay and get ur hands on t21 2p
I don't have 2pc T21 and I'm alright
hopefully 880 unsullied gear will go a long way?
After that u gonna be a Monster!:grin:
It has pretty huge impact on ST dmg./ragegain...its Shieldslam spam during Battlecry
Yea...but u are crushin worlds anyway arent u @warm plinth?
No matter the tierπ
Haha, something like that.
that cradle and helm though lol
955 cradle jeez
i was linking for the 50% haste lol
yea, so far my best is 55%, i cant seem to beat that threshold
though you could easily improve with different gloves on
i recomend 4t21 only on m+ trash
how much ilvl is it worth running 4set t20 you think?
just returned to my prot warrior and i have like 900 and 915 pieces
for surv it is big ilvl worth maybe 40+ ilvl each peace(no one can tell correct) , but if u dont want do 25+ keys and mythic raid last boses, i go 2t21 and highest ilvl
i better do some Mythic ToS it sounds like
If we run 4pc T20 and 2pc T21, will the legendaries we use be waist and wrist?
ππ»
anyone got a wa for renewed fury so i can optimize my dps?
new -> icon -> trigger: aura = renewed fury, done friend
Morning
π
So what is that beihler? That is a new macro for what now?
Sorry, new here: @soft condor , what is the macro for?
It's a recipe for a renewed fury weak aura, step by step
click "new" and "icon", add name or not -> switch to "trigger" and insert "renewed fury" into the aura part, done
Oh weak aura is a type of addon?
Yes, WeakAuras is probably the most usefull addon in all of wow
I will download it. Do I add it like any other addon? I see WeakAuras 2, is that fine?
yes, that's the correct one
would you change a 955 haste vers neck for a 985 crit mastery?
but you'll need some actual weakauras to use with the addon, but you can make them in game
Ok i picked Terminus Signaling Beacon in raid since noone wanted it. Been playing around with a bit and it seems (as someone hinted eariler) that you get the full effect even as tank (possibly because its not classed as a melee trinket). I made a trinket switch/use macro and paired it with moonglaives. I made a macro that will use trinket slot 13 and with shift click i can do a trinket switch.
That's indeed interesting
@surreal hearth I hear you guys talking about this stuff and think to myself, I still have to level my damn cooking skill. You guys are lightyears ahead.
@gloomy light i would on content that kills me fast, for the hp. But i can't tell you how it changes rage gain / dps / hps and stuff over a longer fight. But sometimes you just need more hp
And then i'd be too lazy to switch back, because i wouldn't know on what to base the decision, so i'd probably just stick with the ilvl
@fair sky Hehe, i dont do very high keys so survivability isnt much of an issue, dpswhoring brings some spice into it
Do yall track concordance to know when you can stack IP higher?
Nope, with t21 2p i dump rage into ip all the time regardless
Just feels like it's wasted sometimes :p
Know what you mean, kinda annoying to see a 6 mil shield turn into a 4 mil one (i'm talking about dragon scales btw if thats what you mean)
I track concordance a bit off the eye's focus targets so i can check if i feel i can afford to check
i'd love i you could track wasted shield. I belief it is not kept as overhealing, if you refresh around the cap
I think i'll stack it on my Dragon Scales WA, and just set the strata to under it
I find that it's hard to hold the rage and you mostly don't want to. You want to spend it to get BC, DS, SW, LS back up. There are times where I get a good proc and have like a 9-10 mil IP. I swap to casting Revenge on CD and only go IP if I'll cap rage.
I'm far and away from being decent being at this class, but that has seemed to work for me. Especially on a fight like M Kin'garoth.
yes, when i would be wasting ip i'd much rather dump rage into revenge, and that's were concordance tracking helps
as it tells you how long you have to refresh or upgrade your ip before concordance runs out
but it's pretty niche, so don't waste the most precious screen real estate on it
Evening all, got a quick question im Using Aggramars Conviction and Apocolypse drive at the moment for raid tanking, heading into mythic Imonar would Dimas Glacial Aegis be better for me in the long run?
Hc versin of it
Dumb question, does shield block stack?
it stacks in duration
from that list i'd go with diimas for more readily available and probably higher impact cooldown
what is best t21 4set or tier21 2 set and 20 5set
im using t20 4p + t21 2p
works pretty well, low cds on everything, huge self survi + decent dps output
i am about to switch over from 2pc 20 + 2pc 21 to 4 pc 21
what does 4p t21 do? cant remember
adds some ip on a existing ip evertime you block 1 sec cd
When you block it gives you more ip
not really useful
not enough ip to be better than t20 4pc
yeah but at some point youre t20 is gonna be low in ilvl and its better to pick up some higher ilvl gear fro better survivabilty
it might be decent for m+
but for raiding i dont think it'd do good
i think it's ok to have t20 with 915-920 ilvls
What point would that be?
good enough
yeah, full heroic is perfectly fine
yes but i am able to pick up pieces that are 40 ilvl's above that at least
if its none tf
exactly
I find 2p2p works really solid for me
If you don't feel you need the extra rage thats fine
I run that in many situations aswell
i mostly run 2p2p myself but as of late i am able to survive just fine
Most of the time I dont need the extra rage since you end up generating so much from t21/booming voice anyway
zero, feel free to run that. But when you do content that you're taking insane damage in, 4pc is very very useful
also my raid team doesnt help me do fear on dogs so i can't make good use of the 2 piece form t20 sadly
why can't you?
thats the only boss on which u cant really spam berserker rage
but on every other, its all good
just don't use it if you're close to the fear
if u've t20 4p then u kinda can use it for rage
it can get to really low cd with 4p
Yeah, just don't use it within 20 r so seconds
i still would rather run 2p2p but yeha thats what i like to use and i get if people would go for 4p 2p
i see alot of people going 2p2p on wacraftlogs tho
Its good for damage if you have high ilvl t20
I think 2p2p is fine, you may not have beserker rage up constantly but you still get that extra rage every 45 seconds
which trinkets do u use guys?
recently i got Aggramar's Conviction, checking logs it has ~26% uptime
dunno if its worth using
it's for your raid, not for yourself
how is it not for me? am i reading it wrong?
aside from that for general use i run eye of (fharg) and shivermaw's with the others on specific situations
The whole point of the tier combo is the synergy between t21 2p and t20 4p
Kinda makes it a moot point if you drop 20 4p
I run arcano and aggramar
at least defensively
"Equip: Taking damage has a chance to increase your versality by 4436 for 14s" its not for raid @soft condor
You use it for the chance of empowering your raid, yes. The personal effect is so so
But it enables a lot more raid dps, because you need 4 different proccs at once in the raid. And yours helps a lot
How does it affect the raid?
so if i use this trinket it gives me bonus hp + heals me to full, but where is the raid empower?
Read this, It'll make it easier to understand
Living the dream
is dargrul still flying from SR?
Still rather new to WoW (I haven't played in years until just recently) - why do we get so much artifact power? I have billions, and all of my points are ticked. What is the point of getting more?
you unlock more slots as you progress
what is your level now
oh, 54
You can get it higher, I'm at 78 for example
I was going to take a screen shot and share
The main reason is the netherlight crucible, it'll give you bonuses up to 75 traits
and more stacks on concordance
Higher than 75 traits is just a very minor bonus, and it just something in there to keep the AP you get somehwat relevant
can you take a picture of your artifact weapon?
But once you reach 75 traits, I'd suggest you start uptting it into other weapons
Yea, new to discord too, do they have a built in tool for screen shots?
you can copy and paste into it
You can upload images directly to the caht
http://www.wowhead.com/netherlight-crucible-guide
heres a guide explaining the crucible at least
My Artifact Shit
yeah, at that point its only for higher concordance
Which will help you with the crucible, read through the guide if you dont know what it is
I will read through it. Big thanks for everyones help.
π
so havent done nelth in a while since 3.5. laucnhed, is dargrul still flying away with SR or changed back to normal?
Belive it was fixed
He didn't fly when i did him last time
thx, abot to start one now π
What item level should I be before attmepting a mythinc dungeon?
Seeing as it drops 885, somehwere around 870 should be more than fine
Problem is just getting groups at that ilvl
i'd just start your own groups or work on the argus quest lines and get the relinquished gear, you'll gear up in no time!
is it ok, that armory on wowprogress dont want update?
hi there, is there a trick to get the secret skin or I am just unlucky?=
Just unlucky. Check every gold pile.
Is there a way to see how much damage the highmountain racial Rugged Tenacity has mitigated?
Can i get some professional help with a relic?
I have a fire relic with revenge + Bastion ilvl 955, and I have a fire relic ilvl 985 with the following
It has no bastion so its garbage for survivability
how is the T21 4p for raiding? and for m+?
@ember arrow its already been slotted into fury weapon, it has unrivaled strength in t3
When you only have one npc hitting you you don't get much use out of it, but in M+, especially for teeming, you get alot out of it
u always get alot out of it whne u get meleed once every sec
with 2 mobs thats possible already
yeah the cd on it makes it cap out in cavlue on any low target cleave situation sadly
be nice if it scaled slightly more
huh wtf y is BFA pre purchase only in USD
Master currency
riight
:P
digital deluxe seems not worth 20 bucksm ore
esp if u get shit for games u dont play
is the highmountain tauren damage reduction any good max level?
any DR is good
was just curious what it was at max level
advanced tip: especially on tank clases
even 1% DR vs EVERYTHING is good
i mean its 2% vers worth of DR
they have the other passive that reduces damage taken by # not just the versatility racial
exactly
so 1% vers is 0.5% DR
thats even more
330 doenst soumnd like much but remember they will squish the numbers
in BFA
as well as the racial most likely
the other dmg reduction racial is scaled off stam..
so in BFA its gana be reduced just as much
so its 330 at max level?
idk
2500-3000 for the avg players
char level * 3
its not based off char level
so unless hp/dmg taken ratios are changed, or it scales better, it doesnt really mean much as a racial
with my 10m hp, the racial does 3k dmg reductin, 0.03% of your hp
but it scales off STAM
is the point im making, it needs to be rescaled probably
and im sure it will be, well hopefully xD
it's meant to be a trivial bonus
Blizzard would prefer if racial abilities didnβt exist for balance reasons so it makes sense that itβs trivial
- COUGHHHGHGFHGHGFHGH* ARCANE TORRENT
i'm not saying theyve done it right so far haha
its fine its not op ahem arcane torrent, but id like it to at least mean something xD not that im ever gana race change to it, im more than happen with my regular cow racials
2% crit dmg for fury, free stamflask, helps from being one shot in m+ as a tank and as fury and warstomp, mini stun
she's older now, that was a phase
tauren bonus is less than stam flasjk
i haven't used stam flask as tank in an extremely long time regardless lol
in m+ and stuff generally if i die its cause i fucked up not cause i dont have enough health, or at least thats how i like to think about it
Ive used it in somehigher keys, where the boss skills were doing like 11m a hit, just to be safe but yeah I usually dont much either
"an illusion, what are you hiding"
but tauren got awesome horns
like 2nd boss in nelths does his tank thing every 6-10 sec lol
i like regular cows far more than highmountain tauren
use cds when out of SR
I do xD
he didnt oneshot me on +22
Highmountain druid forms though mgll
i dont tank nelths on my warrior its far too stressful
lol yeah thats true
i dont play horde anyway though
was it a tyranical 22? xD
tyranical
idk the best tank dungeon for prot is upper kara
it only one shot me if i get autoed right before and he ate my ignorepain shield
maybe seat but idk exactly all the things that are reflectable
and upper kara hands down our best xD
Upper kara with DH's or boomies
Or Arcane mage
Who plays arcane though
memes
havoc is better than arcane
I'll give you that
but any dh would just play vengeance i suippose
Who plays prot warrior in high keys
i do
Lev, create the Upper Kara meme team
Prot war, 2 havoc DH and a boomkin and throw in a resto druid for good measure
the only ultra high key prot is good for is upper kara
And let us know how long shade took to die
even then prot paladins might be better cause they can immune mana dev orbs as well
and shield interrupts
DK can AMS the orbs as well, but pally has those interrupts yeah
Hmm, can stoneform remove orb DoT? π€
no its a magic dot not a bleed
Stoneform removes magic too
Magic, bleed, poison and disease iirc
Curse is the only thing it doesn't work on
Going to test this shit right now
maybe, test it out if you're a dwarf then
I know you're waiting with bated breath. I'll try to hurry XD
warriors can soak the orbs manually and then drop them but you have to use your cds right
soaking the orbs really hurts
Yeah it does.
HMT man
nightborne
That knockdown is gonna be the new Arcane Torrent in BfA
With all the stuns and shit getting nerfed
you alraedy have charge
if it has no min range
It has no min range
hmt charge is useless
It has a max range of 6 yards
idc about power
It's a knockdown
that knokdown is only good in m+ if you charge into a wall probably lol
i want A E S T H E T I C S
Warbringer only works on 1 target in BfA
Nightborne is BiS mgll
Why is Nightborne BiS?
But you can be a female VE and have it be way more awesome and have the sexier elf model
only reason to play ally is for dem waifus
amirite
now that we got nightborne
no reason anymore
Yeah except I only have one elf toon π€
Too small and spinky for warriors imo
And it's because it has to be an elf
i didnt say warriors
maybe weird idea, but i thimk bodytype shud change on class, like warr shud be more muscular than mage
idk
Testing on heroic. I forgot you have to do Lower Kara to get to Upper regularly
And I ain't about that life
Also I was wrong; it has curse in the tooltip too
No immunity
Guess I'm soloing lower kara π
That awkward moment when you can't solo Moroes lol
on what diff?
Mythic
Stoneform does not remove the loose mana DoT
Does remove Garrote on Moroes though
tfw someone in your group gets a 940 chrono shard and keeps it for their offspec
I had the other piece at 940 aswell
Which legendaries are generally BIS for protection?
If Iβm not mistaken wrists are
But what else?
hands
they give more rage as well
I've noticed you absorb way more damage this way because of the uptime in ignore pain
How so?
Hands only say 20% damage on tclap/slam right?
Why/how do they increase rage
I was thinking wrist/one of the cd Reducing legendaries
as they do more damage, they generate more rage, if you run anger management alonside booming voice, belt will help you lower the cd of demo shout, wish gives a lot of rage. Also, with the 2pc t21 you have a spam of shield slam and using all that rage makes demo shout off cd real quick
I was thinking the walls fell/legs for straight survivability
Oh yeah Iβve noticed that too
in fact, every battle cry is a stupid smash of shield slam + IP
Is the rage increase from the hands really that good? How much more rage does it produce?
I'll have to replace my KB soon
well, if you have enough survival with that strat, taking that extra dps is always handy for the raid
See with as much rage as I burn through I canβt see wrists not being BIS for the healing output
you can replace belt with wrist I guess
Yeah true. My warr is my alt atm tho since weβre not as great as other tanks currently for mythic
we're not?
Belt is great for M+ tho. All those TVLAP TARGETS
tclap*
I donβt think a warr has killed M angus yet.
Argus* fuck autocorrect lol
Prot warr that is
Oh well I stand corrected
also we're really good for scythe
since its blockable
good for aggramar
imonar is using cds on cd
Arenβt other tanks less squishy tho or is it just that other tanks are better overall
we'ren ot squish at all
in fact, you'll see that you receive less damage even than dps
if u cant play warr properly
Oh I do haha
u get fuckd
and a lot of healing via absorbs
Iβve noticed that many times. π
90% of our playstylei n raids: time SB for blockable shit
I feel like I do well but man thereβs a mythic gild with a warr that had everything macroβd hahah
Literally 1 macro for all abilities. π±π±π±
Oh I know
He does a lot his other tank says
Hey do you have to tank the Aggramar adds separately?
Dies*
Alright
I canβt wait for BFA if the change to IP is implemented as they expect it to be
And does he not do Foebreaker on LFR? O_o
Oh
So I can just stack the whole time?/
yea
Nice okay
The BFA IP change?
but we'll see
Looks better than it is now lol
no
Also world, you do need to tank big adds apaet
Generally bracers are the strongest defensive legendary we have, as for gloves Vs belt it comes down to aoe
At least on HC. idk about the others
also @sick sentinel did u do mythic wit warr
or u just say we're worse because u heard
from a certain indivifual perhaps
name starts wit S
ends with co
hmmhm
@fierce juniper is it you?
have my baby?
i have a question guys, when you block an attack we block a melee attack but did we just block physical melee dmg or even the magical one like de slash on varimathras?
Nope.
was on track for easy 3 chest on a cath +12 or +13 i forget
get to last boss with over 3 mins left
get to the phase with the puyrple balls
theres.. a lot. like, 4-5 hitting at once
it goes on forever
and ever
and ever
and ever
over 5 mins total on that phase alone
then the boss comes back, but the purple ball guys dont away
and the boss wasnt targetable
so hes poutting green stuff all over floor while im still dealing with bvalls and no one cna target boss
o_O
ended up 1 chesting it. sad. was easily 3 chest if not for thatever bug that was
I mean, that's definitely a bug. But it's definitely not something that's happening all the time. Sounds like you just got screwed
yup lol
With 4-5 orbs hitting at once, sounds like your DPS weren't doing their jobs killing the spirits though
Whats worse is one shotting every boss on a +15 or higher than getting to the last one with 5-7 minutes left only to wipe over and over
the spirits werent losing health
The boss coming back and the other shit not going away and not being targetable is definitely a bug though
Oh
If illidan gets hit his energy resets and won't progress till he reaches full
When an orb hits Illidan, it halts his energy regeneration. So the more orbs that hit him, the longer the phase lasts. Obviously if the spirits are unkillable, it would be really really hard to transition to the other phase.
the spirits werent dying, and we had like, a million of them
and the dps was GOOD
hence 3 chesting
Lol, sounds like a challenging fight
Wtf, how lol
There's not even any hard trash on the way to that boss
they did look lime voidwalke4rs
So people were just standing in front of them? x_x
guess so
wasnt a good group lol
every few mins out of nowhere id be the only one alive
what do you guys like to use more the dog trinket or the coven trinket?
and the slow is fun
the armor is like an extra 10% dr or something its reaaaly nice
STR 3960 vs STR 2372+HASTE1400
which one is better dps??
Uh, definitely the first one
str contributes to dps way more than the same amount of haste?
melemesu
Yes
Managed 100% shield block uptime for 4 minutes, not sure if worth the cost tho
Anger management is too good
Pardon?
you don't need 4min SB uptime for anything
you need SB up for Important moments, not all the time
multiple SWs and DSes plus massive rage from frequent BCs are gonna do you better
Yeah =/
incredibly situational, and so far there hasn't been a situation where it's better than most defensive trinkets
word thank you
so like you'd take darkmoon or a haste stat stick over it most of the time?
is thier an ELi5 tank rotation. im pretty much pressing glowing buttons but i basically tab target devastate right?
it's more of a priority system, on ST it's SS on cooldown and rev/tc are your fillers, devastate goes out of the rotation once you switch to devastator
which is as soon as you hit lvl 75 π
kinda
As far as active mitigation goes, yes
ok ty
yeah, I have some problems with threat too, namely overaggroing my cotank all the time
Ok boys, I'm going to be tanking Mythic dogs soon, I'm wearing 6pc, just wonderng what trinkets I should use between 950 Apoc Drive, 950 Codex, 955 Diima's and 980 Khaz'goroth's courage
that's all you have? khaz and apoc
Yes unfortunately it is
So, prot stuff, how much haste is too much haste?
I may have coined a 985 coven ring and i'm now at a hefty amount of haste.
There isn't really such a thing
There is no such thing
Casual 38.25% haste then it seems
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
40%+ happens fairly often depending on trinket choice and quality of your jewelry
saw a few guys at 50-55% haste a while back
I Wasnt blessed with haste gear anymore buuut I do have mastery gear
#MythicArgusReady.. if only I main tanked still/had a good guild
is the lightforged draenai a good racial for the prot warri or not
likely not to be anything game breaking, as most racials tend to be pretty minor
okay but are they better than the humans one
as a prot warrior I liked being a space cow, when I was alli, could use battle cry to make it crit
their heal I mean, so from 5% to 50% with last stand, to 90%+ with gift
So its kinda more attractive more than being a human
for me yes but each their own
?
Mosty racials are so minor it doesnt really matter
iinsert arcane torrent commenjt here
arcane torrent is only op cuz it doesnt dr, so having 5 in a group is op
if they made it dr like a stun it woudnt be a problem
but if they start that then they will probably make warbringer dr as well soooo
nty xD
Quickj question do you guys 2 or 3 tank mythic portal keeper
2 tank
feel like thats an oversight lmao I was thinking m+
3
m+ obviously too
think we 3 tank too
why 3 tank
minimizes overall raid damage from dot
probably not now, but when it was first week, it made a difference
well im totally guessing, but back first week, 3 tanking it let you sac a healer or 2 probably
making imps easier
and all around cleaner
#lazy
For felhounds, I've been skipping using t20 because I feel I will not have it up for the fear, does anyone else do this?
875 arcano vs 900 Darkmoon?
So even though it's only 875 it's still better for dps?
Did anyone say it was?
Boys. Are we still using devastator instead of indomitable for greater ignore pains and some deeps?
always deva
Devastator is op
Dusting off my warrior because I greatly miss him, and am prepping for bfa.
Thank you kindly
u mean for bfa?
we dont know the exact numbers yet
too early to tell what will be best
BfA it could all change.
No, no. I meant now.
now we answered π
then definitely devastator unless you're like super undergeared for the content you're doing
indom is good if u get oneshot wit proper cd management
which doesnt happen
i used it on mythic odyn
thats it
was prob not necessary
I'm going with Warr for bfa in general as Main, since I've come to the conclusion that tanking with a fun dps offspec is all I want to do, and that nothing goes above and beyond a big green orc covered in plate
(discord is lagging, sorry)
thanks for saying it twice so us old warriors can hear it
