I honestly enjoy waycrest manor

fiery pendant
#

i like the dungeon a lot

#

coven just does a fuckload of damage to the group

#

my rdruid was struggling

kraken boss best boss

uncut fractal

ember arrow
#

fiery pendant
#

ember arrow
#

it feels like the adams family

#

also i wanted a spooky mansion in wow

uncut fractal
#

Where do you get the questline from? 7th legion?

fiery pendant

#

waycrest manor after that

#

with a few quests in between

#

then you unlock siege of boralus

#

though it was bugged to fuck today

#

some guildies unlocked it and couldnt get in

uncut fractal
#

Is it good dungeon or cancer?

fiery pendant
#

great dungeon

#

last boss is really cool, but the 3 before it are good too

#

and theres a really cool cinematic at the end ๐Ÿ˜„

uncut fractal
#

king's rest is this locked as well?

fiery pendant
#

kings rest is unlocked after 7k 7th legion rep i think

#

or possibly 7.5k

crystal night
#

318 ilvl with 277 Weap and shield. How much tanker should I expect to feel with 325 shield over my 277?

fiery pendant
#

way way way tankier

#

will make a big difference

crystal night
#

Ty haha I needed that motivation

uncut fractal
#

I have a 266 shield

#

Thanks

fiery pendant
#

get urself a crafted 300

#

will make doing heroics much easier

uncut fractal
#

Story time: I actually scrapped my 290 shield

#

And had to spend 300 gold on a 266 one

fiery pendant
#

make friends with a blacksmith

tardy oak
#

how much are the 300 ones>

fiery pendant
#

its like 30 storm silver ore for a 300

astral crystal
#

finding a shield is ass so far

tardy oak
#

?

crystal night
#

I've been tanking m0 with it haha

uncut fractal
#

I am a blacksmith

fiery pendant
#

๐Ÿ˜ฎ

#

make one then

uncut fractal
#

but it takes like 50k gold to get to skill 100

#

as ores are overpriced af

fiery pendant
#

im mining / bs

uncut fractal
#

and 300 ilvl shields are 20k+ on AH

tardy oak
#

20k for 200 ilvl!?

#

300*

fiery pendant
#

126/150 bs 150/150 minin

tardy oak
#

wtf

crystal night
#

Not bad

#

yea its dumb

crystal night
#

Ty boys

fiery pendant
#

just pick mining up and get farming my bro

uncut fractal
#

where do you farm most ores?

#

drustvar?

fiery pendant
#

ive been super lucky in stormsong

uncut fractal
#

random route or specific?

fiery pendant
#

dont really follow a route

#

but stay away from the east side of the zon

#

e

#

mostly just lap around briarback kraul and deadwash

#

ymmv, i havent tried the horde zones at all

uncut fractal
#

Oh I'll give that a try

#

What ilvl are you guys planning to reach before raid & m+ unlocks?

fiery pendant
#

340 ish at least tbh

#

3 weeks of m0's should get us that far

uncut fractal
#

so 340+ is the safe area

#

to get a place in pugs

fiery pendant
#

oh

#

no way

#

pugs will want higher

uncut fractal
#

oh god

fiery pendant
#

i dont pug very often, but in my experience they usually start asking like just below what the raid drops

uncut fractal
#

I'm honestly in a safe place right now. 333 ilvl and most pugs require 315+

fiery pendant
#

and climb rapidly

uncut fractal
#

for mythic dungs that is

fiery pendant
#

not bad

uncut fractal
#

I've had some good groups so far

fiery pendant
#

wait

#

ur 333 with a 266 shield

#

what the fuck

uncut fractal
#

Yes

fiery pendant
#

how neverlucky with shields are you lol

uncut fractal
#

I have no clue

#

I can use my 150 ilvl artefact shield if that's better

#

Lul -30 ilvl

fiery pendant
#

lmfao

uncut fractal
#

5% versatility is that bad?

vast agate
#

does anyone have a run down on what traits to loot for on prot?

#

dps wise and then survival wise

#

I dont see any info on that pinned here

#

I guess it's hard to sim that kinda stuff

uncut fractal
#

i'm looking at the 8.0 prot changes and I only see nerfs ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

Not a single good thing

twin hazel
#

check the actual link in the pins

#

and you might find what youre looking for

crystal night
#

How many I lvls is brace for impact worth?

twin hazel
#

not sure we have those kind of values yet

#

except deafeninig crash is like 15-25? ilvls

crystal night
#

we

#

we're only supposed to have 1 /3 deafening crash right?

summer basalt
#

1 deafening crash and the other bracer x2 i think

#

anyone know a good WA for protec and all abilities

twin hazel
#

is dungeon spamming good leveling?

vagrant cape
#

no

ember arrow
#

@summer basalt wago.io has some good ones

#

SB and IP trackers are in pins

twin hazel
#

I like sloots WA's but you have to subscribe and link your twitch to see them.

ember arrow
#

i jsut use one of the top ones

#

for prot

vagrant cape
#

I'd also highly recommend this battle shout tracker

#

I forget to apply it so often

twin hazel
#

ive been needing one just hadnt bothered putting in the time to search lol you saved me the trouble

vagrant cape
#

Also, question, what would be better; two deafening crash traits or one deafening crash and one callous reprisal?

#

(the one that makes revenge do more damage and add a damage reduction debuff)

#

Also another question; I find that I have too much rage during avatar. Is there a way to reduce my parry/dodge so my revenges aren't free as often?

twin hazel
#

lol

vagrant cape
#

serious question tho

#

I hate, HATE using a GCD for ignore pain

#

so I try to spam revenge and thunderclap during avatar

twin hazel
#

over capping rage now isnt such a bad thing anymore since we dont have a rage dump

vagrant cape
#

and I still overcap

#

oh, ok

twin hazel
#

thats how i feel

#

others may not agree

vagrant cape
#

but I also wanna dump so I can get avatar/demo available sooner

#

so is there any other way to spend rage aside from impending victory?

twin hazel
#

um dont get impending victory

#

nut ha there really isnt

vagrant cape
#

I would never do that, but as far as I know there are only four non-pvp rage dumps; IP, revenge, SB, and impending victory

#

are there any others?

merry monolith
#

Any info if they would remove GCD from some of the abilities, it feels so damn clunky ._.

undone sun
#

nope and it's highly unlikely

pastel blade
#

I feel like I'm havning a hard time balancing when IP and SB is up in relation to rage capping

#

Might just be me. But I'm having a harder time getting my rotation down than I expected

#

hey guys is the DMD trinket good?

slap yourself

ember arrow
#

can do

orchid flower
#

Hate that I can't hold aggro by staring at my enemies

#

I miss that hahaa

ember arrow
#

it still feels that way mostly

#

issue is pulling aggro OFF of allies, or if they bodypulld or nonjapulled, then its noticeable

#

also DH burst

orchid flower
#

biggest issue is when a second group gets accidently pulled

sick sentinel
#

and thunder clap is on cd after first second of pulling

Literally my life, Im like shiiiiiit

Using shockwave as a desperate attempt hahaha

Man, I know devastator is way worse than the other options but I just really like not having another button to hit.

ember arrow
#

you barely hitdevastate in the first place

kind tinsel
#

So these 340 azerite pieces. Do I just store these away for a couple days until i have the heart level for the traits? Seems super weird to not be able to equip an upgrade.

ember arrow
#

u can equip them

#

u cant unlock the traits

sick sentinel
#

I am just starting to play prot and I have NO idea how to play it ;_;

main vault
#

They may be better without traits at 340

kind tinsel
#

Yeah I'm not sure how to weigh a 2 trait 310 piece vs a 340 no traits

sick sentinel
#

What is the best way to practice tanking without people getting upset with me?

plain vapor
#

hmm

#

just got a fist wep from a wq

#

guess ill have to use this to tank

weary notch
#

I saw that. Right as I was going to do it another one for an axe popped in the same zone

ember arrow
#

@sick sentinel rule #1 of tanking, dont care, makingmistakes just comes with practice

#

otherwise just do easier content, where mistakes arent punished too much

#

or practice rotation by hitting theclass dummy or questing

sick sentinel
#

@ember arrow Thanks for the help bro ๐Ÿ˜› I am kinda bricking it lmao

ember arrow
#

i would advice on NOT hitting the tanking dummy

#

he will annihilate you

#

unless it was changed

undone sun
#

it was scaled to 120 so it really should be that much of an issue now

ember arrow
#

ah ok

#

also, since the expansion is just beginning, everyone gotta get used to the dungeons/raids, so you can learn with the rest basically

summer basalt
#

guys , its normal that getting more % of haste its difficult , like i get 3 items with haste and i dont get 1% more

ember arrow
#

you need certain amount of haste to get a %, and at low ilvl that means sometimes 3 pieces arent enough

#

although 3 pieces not even 1% haste seems weird, but idk

undone sun
#

beginning of the expac is always low on haste

ember dagger
#

from what everyone was saying before the expansion came out haste at endgame right now is pretty low across the board

sick sentinel
#

I feel like Freehold is nasty. Anyone else found a dungeon like that for them?

ember arrow
#

freehold has alot of packs close, and the onesthat knock u back reset aggro

#

freehold trash is annoying

#

so is kingsrest

sick sentinel
#

Yes. I havenโ€™t done kingsrest yet

ember arrow
#

bu on kings rest u can remove synergy fro mtrash by mindcontrolling an undead as dk

sick sentinel
#

Back to Freehold for a sec- I try my hardest and I still seem to end up pulling half the dang zone. Do I need to kite the packs back father? Or pull pats with the nearby packs?

ember arrow
#

issue is pulling too much?

#

then taunt, and let them come to u

#

so u make space

#

ofc that requires dps not to charge in

sick sentinel
#

Well and thereโ€™s my rub

ember arrow
#

just tell em

#

if they dont listen

#

u did all you could /leave

#

freehold has packs really close together as mentioned

#

so if u wanna play it safe just pull back

#

will be fun to see in bolstering/bursting weeks later in m+...

sick sentinel
#

Easy Satan

ember arrow
#

i saw a few packs with tons of low hp adds or tons of low hp adds with one big dude

#

bursting /bolstering hell

sick sentinel
#

It might be the โ€œnopeโ€ key on fort weeks

ember arrow
#

hmm, im just speculating, they can also just remove some adds from those affixes

#

likethey did with bats in BRH

#

and we (at least i) dont know how generous timers will be, so if playing safe will be a good strat

junior ivy
#

I DID MY FIRST MYTHIC DUNGEON

#

it was freehold

#

i tanked

#

it was scary

ember arrow
#

many wipes or good run?

junior ivy
#

many wipes

#

we had 310 tank (me), 303 healer, 323 dps, and two 280 dpses.

#

they just hit 120 like 15 mins before we did the mythic lol\

sick sentinel
#

How did they get in?

junior ivy
#

no requirement for mythic

#

but yeh we wiped a lot

#

on trash and bosses

#

only boss we one shotted was last boss

compact sun
#

Is the DMF trinket gonna be worth getting for tanking?

amber siren

Guys - not sure if asked before or not but would it be worth it to upgrade a higher ilvl azerite armor over a lower ilvl one even though you can't access the azerite powers on the higher ilvl one? Let's just say the ilvl leap is 40ilvl (so lots of stam + str which is always good). My thoughts are it's defnitely worth it for that reason alone as STR = armor and STAM just = more survivability/grace period. Thoughts?

ember dagger
#

I think if it's 40 ilvls it's probably worth it so long as you're not giving up high priority traits

Hi guys. I just want to ask how good is prot warrior atm? I'Ve been told that he as alot of self healing and i just have to click cds good, but i don't think that is possible.

Donโ€™t play it play something more fun

Early levels, you're more than fine playing Fury or smth

#

Victory rush keeps you alive

#

Aswell as Bloodthirst

#

You could probably do bigger pulls as fury

vestal mantle
#

I'll rush a horde character, that's why ๐Ÿ˜›

#

110

#

@long lake Do you mean Fury as 110-114 or did you mean like from level 1-50? ๐Ÿ˜„

long lake
#

110-118ish

#

It's pretty easy to make big pulls

#

It's still efficient at the last two levels aswell

#

Just a little bit more sweaty

#

๐Ÿ˜„

vestal mantle
#

Would you recommend going Prot the last two?

long lake
#

I wouldn't

#

do it myself that is

#

Haven't tried prot enough, but I tested it at start

#

Compared to fury it was bad

#

Fury's got such good cleave with Whirlwind

#

It's so consistent aswell

I tried to do some MM yesterday with 315 ilvl and I felt like I was getting crushed ny trash ร  lot of time (First mobs of the under rot for exemple)

Is there anything I might do wrong ?

#

I mostly had to use Def cds on CD, and health stone as well

ionic fern
#

Ugh

#

I did 2 mythics yesterday at 280 ilvl. ๐Ÿคท

old zephyr
#

Wich ones ?

ionic fern
#

The dinosaurus one and then the MoS looking one..can't remember the names. ๐Ÿ˜‚

#

Atal'Dazar & Underrot

#

Just checked the names.

old zephyr
#

Under rot the second pack of trash (with the mask thingy) wiped us ร  lot how did you do ?

sick sentinel
#

I think as prot warr always having something up is mandatory, i.e. active mitigation or any cooldown

ionic fern
#

By kiting a ton. ๐Ÿ˜„

#

Charged in with CD's, did some damage, jumped away, waited to get healed, charged back in.

#

And then kited.

#

And kited..

#

๐Ÿ˜„

old zephyr
#

Yeah that's it I did not kite enough then

sick sentinel
#

or kiting ๐Ÿ˜„

ionic fern
#

But tbf some smaller packs i facetanked and it wasn't that bad.

old zephyr
#

The smaller were okay mostly

#

But I never did super high key in legion so i'm not used to most dungeon mechanics

sick sentinel
#

are you using ignore pain and shield block correctly?

ionic fern
#

There's some nasty shit going on in underrot tho, did it first time and i got a DoT or smth that hit me for 45k. ๐Ÿ˜‚

sick sentinel
#

yeah, underrot and atal'dazar (the big hulk units poison)

ionic fern
#

Seemed to be the tiny leeches or w/e they are.

sick sentinel
#

thankfully it's only 4-5 hulks

#

but still

nova idol
#

atm in underrot

#

the worms are cancer

summer basalt
#

any recommendation for trinkets?

cinder nova
#

Underrot trash isn't really any issue on Mythic

#

Just make sure you're rotating through CC if necessary

#

the only stuff that will outright gib you is stacks of the blood ticks

#

That bleed they leave on you is brutal

amber siren
#

@summer basalt check pins

old zephyr
#

The pack with blood matron and mask things is the one I don't know how to deal with

fossil spindle
#

Cc one add on left or right, pull them back to bridge, from there just inturupt/stun when needed. Thats what i did atleast

lapis pasture
#

Does ignore pain have a cap? or does it stack indefinitely

ember dagger
#

It has a cap of 1.3 times one casts value

#

Cap

Check the icy veins guide in the pins if you want more specifics about the way it interacts with ATP buffs

Hey bro's so war prot is good now ? not garbage for MM atm ?

severe steeple
#

Im gonna buy an "MMO" mouse

#

prot has way too many keys for me

fossil spindle
#

Prot is fine. Clunky now but gear will fix that.

quartz moon
#

it seem good for MM+ ? or hard for him

old zephyr
#

personnal experience (I might not be a good prot warr but if you are new to it you may feel the same) I tend to have trouble on harder packs, because prot need to push the right button at the right moment, but I am dwarfing most of the DPS on the recount

upbeat gate
#

as rpot i can tell u.. get ingi nitro boosts and use leap to kite .. on harder packs do liek this use last stand avatar charge in thudner clap dragon roar shockwave after your shockwave stun ends jsut leap away and watch the mops dieng

#

on 2. pack do the same with nitro boosts

#

if u dont have nitro boosts jsut use charge to friendly atrget to leave the mobs asap.. i tanked mythics with 310 ilvl started and all i was doing was jsut go in sue cds take aggro and go away.. agaisnt range mops jsut LoS them hard so the cant cast u and keep moving..

#

now i am 337 ilvl and still use a 266ilvl shield cuz no shield dropped (feelsbadman) but liek i say imo prot warrior sucks hard so all u can do is kite

quartz moon
#

we prey for tuning faster

#

warrior kite when dk facetank like a real tank ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

simple flicker
#

yeah i get rolled over as well as a warrior have to run

upbeat gate
#

monks also face tank ๐Ÿ˜„ ๐Ÿ˜„ the thing is warrior tank was always about standing and rotation Blocks and shit while monk and dk was about selfhealing.,. now when they nerfed selfheal on tanks instead of monk and dk being dogshit they are still super OP and warrior still sucks dick.. sorry for my bad language this is jsut hwo i feel..

prime owl
#

I thought warrior was supposed to be middle of the pack

#

what changed

errant dagger
#

To be honest I have a brm prot and bdk on 120 did all mythics on them and to be super honest my warrior performed the worst even when he has 15 iIvl more then the other ones...

quartz moon
#

is a problem ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

why blizz do that with prot war ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

errant dagger
#

Because the kids donโ€™t play warrior tank the kids play dh monk and blood dk, no hate my main was blood dk a long time

Whatโ€™s the best healer to go with warrior?

undone sun
#

all of them

ember arrow
#

Ye i dont think there is any class prefered

undone sun
#

MW and Rsham are, afaik, considered pretty low for tank healing but with a semi decent player on both ends it shouldn't really be an issue

ember arrow
#

I thought monk were good tank healers

jaunty needle
#

Bo

#

I feel most comfortable with Paladins, although I will say I did a run with an Rsham and my health almost never moved

ember arrow
#

Only time i felt low on heals was with rdruid. But i dont see many so not sure if it was due to bad player or not

#

Anecdotal evidence etc

jaunty needle
#

Yea same actually, on trash pulls Druid really struggling

#

But on bosses is fine

distant wharf
#

is it worth buying 350ilvl shield?

undone sun
#

have you ran any M0s

distant wharf
#

I've got 3 myths

tardy oak
#

@distant wharf not worth it

undone sun
#

i was considering it a couple days ago but got a 340 off of M0 rezan

jaunty needle
#

All the 350 boe are insanely priced because itโ€™s 1st week

undone sun
#

no need anymore

#

indeed

last hull
#

i wasnt, but some mope put it on ah for 75k. instabuy

undone sun
#

buying one this early on it's necessary in the slightest

jaunty needle

But that flaming sword does look dope as fuck >_>

distant wharf
#

on my realm it's for 350k

tardy oak

lol

last hull

yeah, its the going rate on mine aswell. dont know what he was thinking

tardy oak
#

keep your goldies guys

last hull

who cares about gold

distant wharf

But was funny that there is sword for 1,5kk

last hull

expansion releases are the only time i spend any gold whatsoever anyway

distant wharf

I do, cause I'm so bad in earning ๐Ÿ˜„

jaunty needle
#

What kind of numbers should I be asking from people if I want to form my own mythic premade this weekend. Ilvl and DPS is what Iโ€™m asking

last hull
#

ask if people has bound their interrupts

#

if yes, then bring

distant wharf
#

I was tanking my first myth at 311 ๐Ÿ˜„

#

successfully tanking I mean

#

but if you create grou, it's kinda easy find ppl with 325 +

ember arrow
#

I did mythic at 290

#

Was kinda challenging

#

But for smooth take 320 id say

jaunty needle
#

Jesus already? Iโ€™ve only ran like 8 dungeons since release day ๐Ÿ˜› I need to pump up my numbers I guess

distant wharf
#

I dumped my 120 after like 9 hours ๐Ÿ˜„

ember arrow
#

Dungeons dont have enrage so its better to have good mechanics followed than lookin at dps alone

twin hazel
#

Do we want to use our unique Krakens eye? or just haste

ember arrow

Whats that?

twin hazel

that you can only use one of

the icy veins guide does say haste in all slots

Nice phone copy

Personally I'm going dps this expansion, prot seems fine from the little I've played of it though

#

As I have stated before my biggest issue with the spec isn't numbers, it's the new playstyle

robust urchin

To slow?

timid jay

Yeah, I really enjoyed the fast playstyle

robust urchin

I know that feel

It's just feels so wierd having everything on the gcd

indeed

robust urchin

I can't really see me doing big pulls in m+

so i just naively went into M underrot

robust urchin

I'm gonna level a dk and paladin in the next days and try them out

rip my asshole

undone sun
#

the trash in underrot is the biggest issue imo

timid jay
#

There are a lot of skips you can do in that dungeon

undone sun

death running up to the first boss bypasses a lot of it for m0s

robust urchin

Imagine if underrot only had the blood ticks as trash

And small things to make it easier

so who's up to be the best damn tank this expansion?

how often do you use devastate in normal dungeons?

i prob hit like.... 5 devastate per avatar? guesstimate.

wha

undone sun

too many factors to give a yes or no answer

thats a lot during avatar

raven kernel

not DURING avatar

undone sun

on aoe you rarely devastate to begin with, and within avatar you're likely alternating TC with SS/Rev

uneven violet

@raven kernel well thats fairly often...about 1/4 of the gcds i think?

PER avatar

I mostly use devastate outside of avatar

pretty much

and mostly ST

so if i had no problem with prot in legion i shouldnt have problems in bfa

got my rogue for serious content

bdk is my 3rd but i dont think i can squeeze it in this reset

is that about right?

you should be fine, you just have to drop the mentality that IP is king

ye that i knew

somber dragon

once you know the damage patterns on a fight, warrior is stupid sturdy

CDs for dayz

crisp dawn

ye we have just to prepare to use IP and other cooldowns matching to the big hits

#

how to judge if IP alone is enough or not i will learn when tanking while leveling^^

somber dragon
#

yep, but my pocket healer likes healing my warr the most (between the bdk/warr) even though i personally feel "more confident" right now on bdk.

#

IP is rarely going to be "enough" it is more of a defensive rage dump, or an augment to something more substantial

crisp dawn
#

im the opposite. my healers urge me to pull more meanwhile i always fear dyin on my veng

veng is like old bdk

ember arrow

Ip is like DKs bloodshield. Its there, but its weak on its own

ye jump from 20 to 70 and back pretty fast

fast paced oO

and all that fucking jumping around rotationally make me wanna get a nicotine drip ๐Ÿ˜„

crisp dawn

you only jump for pull

somber dragon
#

you aren't talenting that talent that you get a sigil of flame when you land?

crisp dawn
#

or if ye lost aggro...which can happen when some dps cant wait

#

i do

#

but sigil doesnt generates much aggro on its own so its fine for an opener and for the adds

somber dragon
#

chances are i could be doing it completely wrong (:

crisp dawn
#

but you have to add some other skills to hold that initial aggro

#

if a mage throws a blizzard and you only rely on sigil...could be you get no refreshments XD

#

im not saying you are wrong but my mentality is that i have to hold aggro and survive. dps is the job of the dps

#

i would never burn my sigils in order to squeeze more dps

well for now. later on when heroics are just for that daily shot of azerite. then things change^^

at least to cover the majority of the weight

junior ivy
#

i got enchanting cause its a little bit of passive income

#

just DEing stuff i dont need

#

is it true that in bfa you can switch profs easily

#

and not have to relearn everything?

undone sun
#

haven't looked into it much for bfa but i know in legion you could relearn the spells if you switched off and back to a prof

junior ivy
#

i didnt know that

#

i spent a lot of gold on some rare enchant recipes

#

and i wouldnt wanna lose them if i switched

#

btw is there a priority list for reputation for bga?

#

bfa

#

storms wakew or 7th legion, which is m,ore important?

undone sun
#

i'm horde so i don't recognize those but i know one unlocks a dungeon and another has some good vendor gear

mortal pike
#

7th legion unlocks the dungeon right, the ally version of Honorbound

junior ivy
#

thanks!

#

are there neck enchants in bfa?

undone sun
#

no, there's weapon enchants now

dark junco
#

Can we put legion neck enchant on HoA?

junior ivy
#

no

#

i tried

dark junco
#

Dammit

junior ivy
#

are there cloak enchants?

sick sentinel
#

Enchanting/BS here. But will also need to use an alt slave to mine.

#

Prolly my 110 Paladin just lvl him exclusively on mining, warmode off.

junior ivy
#

lvl him to 115 then turn off exp

#

so he cna use legendaries

steep palm
#

what talent for row 60 in dungeons?

foggy abyss
#

I think Bolster is the best

old zephyr
#

Never not Bolster

#

Bolster is life, bolster is love, bolster is king

undone sun
#

correct, bolster is the default choice

steep palm
#

ok ty

vale agate
#

any web site that tell me witch trait is better at tanking?

merry sandal
#

Icyveins i guess

dark junco
#

Icyveina is relevent again thanks to marok โค

dire flare
#

is there a way to upgrade alchemy trinket?

main vault
#

No

dire flare
#

ok, ty

daring socket
#

make prot warriors great again

short yoke
#

so has there been any trinket sims for prot yet? Wanna know if the blockade trinket is good

hybrid sundial
#

is the statweights on pawn correct?

#

seems off by a lot

daring socket
#

I havent seen a prot warrior yet lol

undone sun
#

pawn is never correct

#

for tanks

#

especially the default strings given

#
  1. don't use pawn defensively, it's not possible
  2. we don't have working sims so you wouldn't get anything accurate to begin with

#

this reforget thing is getting a bit out of hand 20k for one reforge ok

tawny panther
#

Just have an alternate gear set in bags

wintry arch
#

hmm your comment is very smart, but sadly i am not to have gotten a whole extra set of gear just to end of tanking which i did not expect to happen lol

#

up*

tawny panther
#

If you have just swapped main set it should not be 20k

wintry arch
#

no went from fury from leveling to arms

#

now to prot

#

i thought it would cap

#

guess not

tawny panther
#

It halves every now and then, forgot time

#

Just get heroic gear for it for now

wintry arch
#

yeah can i just tank using arm traits?

tawny panther
#

Mythics are fine, you don't need bis traits

#

A heroic? Yes

#

Easily

#

Or do world quests for new azerite bits

wintry arch
#

good good i can try to see if i even like tanking first

undone sun
#

well, difficulty is subjective
but traits aren't going to make a huge difference

wintry arch
#

i liked warrior tanking legion start

#

have not played since

tawny panther
#

Read guide maybe do a normal or two it'll be fine

valid trout
#

I'm still getting used to (read: not liking) IP being on the global

wintry arch
#

wow the reforge price still stays at 20k for another piece of gear! jesus man it should be item specific

valid trout
#

But, I'll probably get used to it enough in a week that it'll be fine

uneven mason
#

0_o

#

20k to reforge

wintry arch
#

talk about gold sink

#

wtf

uneven mason
#

Gonna tell my guild that they best make sure they're asking me to do what they want me todo cause them traits are stayin put

exotic wadi
#

already at 20K reforge, you reforged a lot..

wintry arch
#

3 times to be exact

#

from fury to arms to prot

#

in the big scheme of things i dont think 3 times is a lot in the expansion span

exotic wadi
#

But why having 3 more piece of gear for tanking is hard?

wintry arch
#

nah just didnt expect to tank if you read what i typed earlier

#

honestly how is thast not capped that is just nuts for a reforge price

exotic wadi
#

i guess because its not meant to be like an other talent tree. but more modification to the legion legendary to have the "choice" of the power the armor gives. And since the traits are specific to an items (not random for the same helmet piece), it's easy to have a copy on hand

uneven mason
#

Well, when you get down to it, you shouldn't need to respec them at all

exotic wadi
#

^

wintry arch
#

**

#

yup

uneven mason
#

Once raids are rolling, you probably won't ever swap the selections on the pieces

wintry arch
#

i should be able to have one piece that switches to prot traits on spec switch

uneven mason
#

not like carrying around multiple sets
