Is that 1st boss?
I honestly enjoy waycrest manor
i like the dungeon a lot
coven just does a fuckload of damage to the group
my rdruid was struggling
only dungeon i dont really like at all so far is motherlode
siege of boralus is fantastic
kraken boss best boss
i love waycrest
have you done the questline to unlock it
Where do you get the questline from? 7th legion?
The Jaina one?
yea
Pride of Kultiras?
yea
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
Is it good dungeon or cancer?
great dungeon
last boss is really cool, but the 3 before it are good too
and theres a really cool cinematic at the end ๐
king's rest is this locked as well?
kings rest is unlocked after 7k 7th legion rep i think
or possibly 7.5k
im at 5500
318 ilvl with 277 Weap and shield. How much tanker should I expect to feel with 325 shield over my 277?
Ty haha I needed that motivation
Story time: I actually scrapped my 290 shield
And had to spend 300 gold on a 266 one
make friends with a blacksmith
how much are the 300 ones>
its like 30 storm silver ore for a 300
finding a shield is ass so far
?
I've been tanking m0 with it haha
I am a blacksmith
im mining / bs
and 300 ilvl shields are 20k+ on AH
126/150 bs 150/150 minin
wtf
Not bad
yea its dumb
Ty boys
just pick mining up and get farming my bro
ive been super lucky in stormsong
random route or specific?
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
Oh I'll give that a try
What ilvl are you guys planning to reach before raid & m+ unlocks?
oh god
i dont pug very often, but in my experience they usually start asking like just below what the raid drops
I'm honestly in a safe place right now. 333 ilvl and most pugs require 315+
and climb rapidly
for mythic dungs that is
not bad
I've had some good groups so far
Yes
how neverlucky with shields are you lol
I have no clue
I can use my 150 ilvl artefact shield if that's better
Lul -30 ilvl
lmfao
5% versatility is that bad?
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
i'm looking at the 8.0 prot changes and I only see nerfs ๐ฆ
Not a single good thing
How many I lvls is brace for impact worth?
not sure we have those kind of values yet
except deafeninig crash is like 15-25? ilvls
1 deafening crash and the other bracer x2 i think
anyone know a good WA for protec and all abilities
is dungeon spamming good leveling?
no
I like sloots WA's but you have to subscribe and link your twitch to see them.
I'd also highly recommend this battle shout tracker
I forget to apply it so often
ive been needing one just hadnt bothered putting in the time to search lol you saved me the trouble
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?
lol
serious question tho
I hate, HATE using a GCD for ignore pain
so I try to spam revenge and thunderclap during avatar
over capping rage now isnt such a bad thing anymore since we dont have a rage dump
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?
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?
Any info if they would remove GCD from some of the abilities, it feels so damn clunky ._.
nope and it's highly unlikely
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
335 shield feelsgoodman
lol the 350 boe epic one was on the ah for 50k. snagged it up, cant decide if i wana use it or just resell it.
resell it
whats best talents for mythic dungs
Hey guys, is the darkmoon card trinket any good for prot warriors?
lulz
guys reckong the tank DMC is worth getting ?
I feel like the answer to your question is literally on your screen :)
yeah i legit just saw that LOL sorry
hey guys is the DMD trinket good?
slap yourself
can do
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
biggest issue is when a second group gets accidently pulled
Literally my life, Im like shiiiiiit
Using shockwave as a desperate attempt hahaha
lmao
Man, I know devastator is way worse than the other options but I just really like not having another button to hit.
you barely hitdevastate in the first place
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.
I am just starting to play prot and I have NO idea how to play it ;_;
They may be better without traits at 340
Yeah I'm not sure how to weigh a 2 trait 310 piece vs a 340 no traits
What is the best way to practice tanking without people getting upset with me?
I saw that. Right as I was going to do it another one for an axe popped in the same zone
@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
@ember arrow Thanks for the help bro ๐ I am kinda bricking it lmao
i would advice on NOT hitting the tanking dummy
he will annihilate you
unless it was changed
it was scaled to 120 so it really should be that much of an issue now
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
guys , its normal that getting more % of haste its difficult , like i get 3 items with haste and i dont get 1% more
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
beginning of the expac is always low on haste
from what everyone was saying before the expansion came out haste at endgame right now is pretty low across the board
I feel like Freehold is nasty. Anyone else found a dungeon like that for them?
freehold has alot of packs close, and the onesthat knock u back reset aggro
freehold trash is annoying
so is kingsrest
Yes. I havenโt done kingsrest yet
bu on kings rest u can remove synergy fro mtrash by mindcontrolling an undead as dk
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?
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
Well and thereโs my rub
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+...
Easy Satan
i saw a few packs with tons of low hp adds or tons of low hp adds with one big dude
bursting /bolstering hell
It might be the โnopeโ key on fort weeks
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
many wipes or good run?
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\
How did they get in?
no requirement for mythic
but yeh we wiped a lot
on trash and bosses
only boss we one shotted was last boss
Is the DMF trinket gonna be worth getting for tanking?
check pins
Cheers
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?
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.
I was bored so I made a list over which dungeon drops what
let me know if I missed any
shield is kinda mixed, I started doing boss names first ๐
wow ty thats useful
is there a portion that does the same thing as al ockstone?
lock *
I forgot how much a better sword and shield makes a difference in your survivalness
@sick sentinel thanks mate!
How do prot warriors compare to other tanks? I havent really dabbled with it
could be better, could be worse
^
nps @tiny rapids
just in case someone asks god tier = Deafening Crash and semi-god was Iron Fortress
: P
Better to stack crash or neh
check pins
as far as I tested, crash doesnt stack... shame!
on the icy veins it says charge and then avatar the opener
would it not be better to avatar and then charge, into demo shout into SB SS
Whats people thought on the darkmoon deck?
Should I level as Protection? I'm starting today
Oh and... Troll or Pandaren warrior?
Donโt 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
I'll rush a horde character, that's why ๐
110
@long lake Do you mean Fury as 110-114 or did you mean like from level 1-50? ๐
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
๐
Would you recommend going Prot the last two?
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
- Victory rush ๐
๐
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
Wich ones ?
The dinosaurus one and then the MoS looking one..can't remember the names. ๐
Atal'Dazar & Underrot
Just checked the names.
Under rot the second pack of trash (with the mask thingy) wiped us ร lot how did you do ?
I think as prot warr always having something up is mandatory, i.e. active mitigation or any cooldown
By kiting a ton. ๐
Charged in with CD's, did some damage, jumped away, waited to get healed, charged back in.
And then kited.
And kited..
๐
Yeah that's it I did not kite enough then
or kiting ๐
But tbf some smaller packs i facetanked and it wasn't that bad.
The smaller were okay mostly
But I never did super high key in legion so i'm not used to most dungeon mechanics
are you using ignore pain and shield block correctly?
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. ๐
yeah, underrot and atal'dazar (the big hulk units poison)
Seemed to be the tiny leeches or w/e they are.
any recommendation for trinkets?
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
@summer basalt check pins
The pack with blood matron and mask things is the one I don't know how to deal with
Cc one add on left or right, pull them back to bridge, from there just inturupt/stun when needed. Thats what i did atleast
Does ignore pain have a cap? or does it stack indefinitely
It has a cap of 1.3 times one casts value
Cap
ty
Check the icy veins guide in the pins if you want more specifics about the way it interacts with ATP buffs
didn't even stack indefinitely in legion
There is a WA in pins. That will help you with IP tracking so you donr waste rage.
What are you doing here Thyme. 

Hey bro's so war prot is good now ? not garbage for MM atm ?
Prot is fine. Clunky now but gear will fix that.
it seem good for MM+ ? or hard for him
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
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
yeah i get rolled over as well as a warrior have to run
monks also face tank ๐ ๐ 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..
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...
Because the kids donโt play warrior tank the kids play dh monk and blood dk, no hate my main was blood dk a long time
reality ...
So War is really bad ? Havent started pexing yet. Should i go WarProt or BRM/Pal ?
I'm doing mythics rn with a 263 green shield bcs I've yet to get a better one and I'm only kiting when I run out of CD's like most tanks will be doing
Don't play poorly and then whine the class is the problem
ive cleared everything so far with zero issues
Just tank the dungeon 4head
starting to tank as warrior and PUG Grps ignore mechanics => feelsbadman
is there any elvui experts here?
So i will go as Warprot, tx guys
dont expect to see a shield drop apparently blizzard dosent want us to have block
Guys, do you have some profile for pawn?
why?
you can't sim surv, we don't have a working dps sim, ilvl is still the strongest and stat priority is very simple
ok then, thanks
Main stats for Warprot atm pls ?
check pins
Already check it but seem similar to Lรฉgion on icy so wanted to confirm it. Hรขte/Mastery/...
The owner of this discord wrote the icyveins guide so it's up-to-date
Ok ok ! So same as Lรฉgion ! Tx โค๏ธ

Cant use other emotes. Gotta be creative thyme
Just want to start with something viable. And when i hear ยซย Warprot is worst even with 15+ilvlย ยป i need info ๐
You have your answer for the question in pins skatefr
If you dont like it play someyhing else. Otherwise we are happy to help
Are there any tanking adding I should download?
omen
There are some WA on wago io that are good. Also the ones in the pins id recommend
Elvui comes with threat on nameplates
i know, but i still like having omen there
I need to put some more work in on my elvUi setup, but when I have time I just want to run dungeons.
ilvl is bis
Bis of what?
I was also going to ask, is ilvl and raw stars worth more than I locked traits at the moment?
need to run a Mythic that drops a Shield asap :p
Stats
rezan drops haste/mast
High lvl shield is always better
Will all shields have the same block rating? So only the secondary stats matter?
Higher ilvl blocks more
oswain has a set bonus with boots with extra block value if u have the gold
Shields make noticeable difference
ilevel on shields are incredibly important because of block rating going up with ilevel
ye, i went 280->350 on shield. feels like i cant die anymore
where did u dropped that shield?
bought it
Whatโs the best healer to go with warrior?
all of them
Ye i dont think there is any class prefered
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
I thought monk were good tank healers
Bo
I feel most comfortable with Paladins, although I will say I did a run with an Rsham and my health almost never moved
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
is it worth buying 350ilvl shield?
have you ran any M0s
I've got 3 myths
@distant wharf not worth it
i was considering it a couple days ago but got a 340 off of M0 rezan
All the 350 boe are insanely priced because itโs 1st week
i wasnt, but some mope put it on ah for 75k. instabuy
buying one this early on it's necessary in the slightest
But that flaming sword does look dope as fuck >_>
on my realm it's for 350k
lol
yeah, its the going rate on mine aswell. dont know what he was thinking
keep your goldies guys
who cares about gold
But was funny that there is sword for 1,5kk
expansion releases are the only time i spend any gold whatsoever anyway
I do, cause I'm so bad in earning ๐
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 Iโm asking
I was tanking my first myth at 311 ๐
successfully tanking I mean
but if you create grou, it's kinda easy find ppl with 325 +
Jesus already? Iโve only ran like 8 dungeons since release day ๐ I need to pump up my numbers I guess
I dumped my 120 after like 9 hours ๐
Dungeons dont have enrage so its better to have good mechanics followed than lookin at dps alone
Do we want to use our unique Krakens eye? or just haste
Whats that?
epic gem
that you can only use one of
its main stat
str agil intel
the icy veins guide does say haste in all slots
but it doesnt mention the str gem at all so
Id still say haste
secondaries are scarce now so maybe
I've tanked on my warrior for the last 3 xpacks, but it has never felt as bad as it does now. The gameplay feels insanely slow, or is it just me?
below 300ilvl it feels really bad
once you get some gear its fun again
had the same experience even though i played beta
if you're having aggro problems read the guide in the pins, you're definitely not doing something right
aight
nowadays i start with heroic leap->avatar mid air->tc->demo SB ->tc
when you have rage available before the pull
yeah 330 and now it seems to be a lot better im not running everywhere
Hey is the darkmoon blockade trinket any good for prot?

Oh my bad, thanks
Sorry if this have been asked a million times before, but is the Darkmoon tanking Deck real shit?
someone is selling it for 50k..
literally 2 sentences above yours
I just bought one for 300k and then checked ;D
I'm tired
oh well, an OK str statstick for 50k I guess ๐
only got 305 trinkets
that's fucking cheap
Kazzak EU
kill me
He's not responding though, just spamming tradechat
wispered him 3 times now, he just keep spamming tradechat, lol
I was surprised to see it "so low" at 300k tbh, but I needed to dump gold to server transfer anyway so
cool
Anyone else annoyed af by the nerf on TC slow ? Can't kite in PVE, get outrun by most classes in PvP
is darkmoon trinket still one of our best?
no
Lol
completely different trinket, no reason for it to have the same value
Scroll up a bit
oh lol, thanks
was agona buiy it for 125k but wanted to be sure first
gona go for the two trinkets on icyveins
im running rezans and briny barnacle
If you guys still have it, apoc drive is still insanely goos
noway
It's what I'm still running in dungeons
It's 8k auto reduction for me
With the cdr it has inbuilt it still beats anything I've gotten
that seems alot
It is
blizz fix :BabyRage:
blizz fix :BabyRage:
Restore it, if it's decent ilvl it's really strong
trinkets.PNG
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
To slow?
Yeah, I really enjoyed the fast playstyle
indeed
I can't really see me doing big pulls in m+
so i just naively went into M underrot
I'm gonna level a dk and paladin in the next days and try them out
rip my asshole
the trash in underrot is the biggest issue imo
There are a lot of skips you can do in that dungeon
death running up to the first boss bypasses a lot of it for m0s
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?
i never had to deal with the tics ๐
Divine shield?
skip
๐
I charged into the bloodtics not knowing what they do and then i died to a 50k tick.
lol
I would use ๐ but i don't wanna go full Thyme.
That's macros signature move Mwahi
lol
I always get the newspaper treatment in dg
๐
I don't think you can nerf prot warriors more
If they do that im sure prot warrior is gonna be the least played spec
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
it already is
Pretty sure monk is less popular.
na
Other tanks to much more stuff better then us we have very goos dmg which I think is what makes warriors somewhat desirable
Maybe
Wonder how the bears are faring
how often do you use devastate in normal dungeons?
in beta i only played with devastator-talent but after reading the pin's i think i have to adjust. now i dont have any free keybinds... :/
@timid jay ๐
fairly often
uhhhh
I don't use it often, but it happens
I use it whenever tc or ss is on vd
to get SS procs
not much better tbh cosmo
Aren't bear & monk bonkers on dmg right now if the sims are correct?
Oof
not really that often tbh
since im in avatar most of the time
every 2nd gcd is thunderclap
bear and monk dmg is average
in between i have to press IP and shield slam
not even close to prot though
definitely plays better, but defensively and offensively could be much better
i prob hit like.... 5 devastate per avatar? guesstimate.
wha
too many factors to give a yes or no answer
thats a lot during avatar
not DURING avatar
on aoe you rarely devastate to begin with, and within avatar you're likely alternating TC with SS/Rev
@raven kernel well thats fairly often...about 1/4 of the gcds i think?
PER avatar
I mostly use devastate outside of avatar
Every devastate cast is paired with a bad childhood memory
Devastate does good threat
How it feels
I often tab use it on trash
morning
it would be fun to have a macro that chooses some random emo thing to /say or /yell each time you hit it ๐
"MY MOTHER BOUGHT THE WRONG CEREAL EVERY TIME"
the good old /train on sunder armor macro
"DADDY DIDN'T RESPECT MY TASTES IN MUSIC"
i heard some not so nice stuff for protection so i want the opinions of our walls here. hows protection?
@crisp dawn ๐
ok thx guys...have to readjust my rotational keybinds :/
prot is very fun
prot's good if you're good
prot is "fine" and stupid amounts of fun if you like hitting shit really fucking hard ๐
XD
get a good shield and you're king

if you... aren't very good... you'll suffer on prot
Thyme just posts that on a timer
just it was slightly less forgiving in legion, especially towards the end
Pls make it happen
im already tanking on vengeance and planned to do warrior as an alt
coming from guardian druid prot is whole new lvl X_x
you know when i need some old fashioned slaughter instead all that felstuff
^^
i'm going the bdk/warrior route, gonna keep both decently geared, and have a rogue and warlock for when i feel like doing something else
I mean. If u plan to do serious content you should have multiple tsanks available to begin with
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?
Id say so
you should be fine, you just have to drop the mentality that IP is king
and come to terms that devestator currently sucks ๐
ye that i knew
once you know the damage patterns on a fight, warrior is stupid sturdy
CDs for dayz
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^^
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
im the opposite. my healers urge me to pull more meanwhile i always fear dyin on my veng
veng is like old bdk
Ip is like DKs bloodshield. Its there, but its weak on its own
ye jump from 20 to 70 and back pretty fast
the only time my healer pal had problems was when we were both undergeared and doing walk-in heroics
veng is way too "fast paced" for me
Bdk is like bdk @crisp dawn
fast paced oO
and all that fucking jumping around rotationally make me wanna get a nicotine drip ๐
you only jump for pull
you aren't talenting that talent that you get a sigil of flame when you land?
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
chances are i could be doing it completely wrong (:
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^^
i just hit the 305 yesterday
rip
Anyone else stuck at work and would really rather be tanking mythics right now ๐ญ
and it seems like all eu players forgot how to interrupt or stun
that's not just EU
so yes its painful for now
global phenomenon, WTB interrupts
it was so bad yesterday i had to take a break from wow because i lost all drive
thats why getting ahead early on is a bliss, cuz only good players rush ahead
so you dont have to worry about it
ye well i wanted to enjoy the story
do that on a 2nd char ;:D
no my war charges thru ๐
Backpack
like poof
If u didnt unlock them
it's under main hand xmod
Transmmog then
drop down for legion artifacts
Legion artifacts
ye thats whats greyed out
weird
ye weird
๐
Guys anyone got a good shield yet and can say if itโs a big difference in survival?
shield makes the biggest difference in survival
340 off of rezan M0, yes noticeably
most important item
block rating is huge now
355 boe
So there is a huge difference
yes
Ok cause I am full 340 only my shield is 277 and I am crying
rip
Well my neck is not 340 but I think you get the point haha
got quite lucky in those mythics then
wha
Yeah
Too late I think
rip
well im not off too bad, missing only rings belt and 2 azerite pieces, rest is 340+ and trinkets dont count
If you're struggling for Shields Check for honorable combatant's sheild (ilvl300) on the auction house. Only costs 50ish storm silver to make so if its stupidly expensive try and find yoursrlf a blacksmith.
ty for the heads up
I have a 300 shield and still get wrecked by A lot of stuff, I suck...
keep seeing people mention not having shields, and even at 100g/ore you can get one made for 5k+tip
The only reason I liked legion is because I donโt have to struggle for a Weopen
well You did have to struggle for the relics so...
found it uninteresting. I like the "wooo! new weapon!" moments.
It was nice not being overly reliant on one piece of gear though
i mean, the artifacts were pretty much half the spec
i get what you mean, but it's still relying on a single piece of gear
if anything the legendries are the end all be all of being reliant on one piece of gear
Ahh
Nothing that I know of yet
I think there is a section in development on the Icy Veins guide for specific dungeons
if you get an organized group, you can probably do it at 280s
pugging is another story
Usually with voice as well, and knowing they are at least decent
I had a hard time (but more or less managed) at 310 but me and my group weren't big M+ boyz in legion either
they have its pros and cons
Manor is pretty easy
atal'drazar as well
Tbh dungeons felt pretty easy this time around
king's rest was somewhat tricky
The bosses in kings rest can fuck you if you dont know tactics thogh
but we were 290ish
I got wrecked so much by the sisters in manor...
And sethralis sucks if you dont have a good healer
do you need some quest finished for king's rest?
So if I form a group of 325 ilvl it should all be a cake?
i went into M0s this week blind but with a guild group so it wasn't an issue
That said, bosses are more like raid bosses this time around
they have a lot of things to take care of
I'm not gonna pug anything this time around if I can help it this time around
indeed
i find this xpac dungeoning very entertaining
Where are you guys farming for shields?
did you finally change to dps?
yup
Like anywhere particular?
i know that there is a rare near the entrance of ataldazar that drops one
theres also another shield rare in drustvar
i dont know the exact location tho
So cosmo youโre a dps only now? Arms?
Any one has tips to speedly do all wq?
Grouping with guildies
take a good route ๐คท
start with ones that are somewhere high
finish them and drop with a glider to others
use your whistle too
its the same as in legion
Any dungeon drops a good shield?
just did Atal mythic and got drop from last boss instead of rezan or the hulk ๐ญ ๐ญ ๐ญ ๐ญ
Rezan has the best haste trinket aswell right? The new Farmboss :x
Thanks โค
Got the rezan trinket in 355
anyone tanked the mythic dungoens and have any insights
don't die
feel like paper on the ones i did
Man, having into the fray feels so good
The only thing that actually killed me was bleed effects
Already being at 23% haste helps so much with how much clunkier we are
oh boi i just did my first dungeon with the thunder clap azerite trait
this damage increase
That up time on demo shout though
Actually would that trait change the " avatar then demo shout" order ?
ye i guess u could demo shout then avatar
To demo clap avatar clap
For one extra clap inside.
Might be ร haste break point for that
Also With that and anger managemebt, What does happen if you demo shout while It's still going, duration add ?
Has anyone tried/done the math on the new Darkmoon Deck? Didn't see it mentioned in the guide
it averages to about 50-60 stam, the effect isn't worth considering at all
So not worth? Its very cheap on my server
how cheap
70k
i would for that tbh, it's essentially a stat stick for 355
if you can get it cheap or free, it's fine
Im gonna do every m0 every week before raids come anyway so there is a good chance ill get other trinkets
But if this is atleast equal I might aswell buy it
i bought fathoms recently so i have that
it sucks that you gotta be an alchemist to use our bis trinket
not like alchemy is particularly terrible
im really having trouble deciding if i wanna keep encanting or switch to anbother profession
another
what is your second primary prof
engineering
that will never change
so for my other prof.. i wont do a gathering one
im too lazy, gathering is too boring
i just wouldnt use it
but i also dont wanna spend a bunch of gold leveling something like BS
yeah i'm leveling another toon for gathering
at least to cover the majority of the weight
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?
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
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?
i'm horde so i don't recognize those but i know one unlocks a dungeon and another has some good vendor gear
7th legion unlocks the dungeon right, the ally version of Honorbound
no, there's weapon enchants now
Can we put legion neck enchant on HoA?
Dammit
are there cloak enchants?
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.
what talent for row 60 in dungeons?
I think Bolster is the best
correct, bolster is the default choice
ok ty
any web site that tell me witch trait is better at tanking?
Icyveins i guess
Icyveina is relevent again thanks to marok โค
is there a way to upgrade alchemy trinket?
No
ok, ty
make prot warriors great again
so has there been any trinket sims for prot yet? Wanna know if the blockade trinket is good
I havent seen a prot warrior yet lol
pawn is never correct
for tanks
especially the default strings given
- don't use pawn defensively, it's not possible
- 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
Just have an alternate gear set in bags
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*
If you have just swapped main set it should not be 20k
no went from fury from leveling to arms
now to prot
i thought it would cap
guess not
yeah can i just tank using arm traits?
Mythics are fine, you don't need bis traits
A heroic? Yes
Easily
Or do world quests for new azerite bits
good good i can try to see if i even like tanking first
well, difficulty is subjective
but traits aren't going to make a huge difference
Read guide maybe do a normal or two it'll be fine
I'm still getting used to (read: not liking) IP being on the global
wow the reforge price still stays at 20k for another piece of gear! jesus man it should be item specific
But, I'll probably get used to it enough in a week that it'll be fine
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
already at 20K reforge, you reforged a lot..
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
But why having 3 more piece of gear for tanking is hard?
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
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
Well, when you get down to it, you shouldn't need to respec them at all
^
Once raids are rolling, you probably won't ever swap the selections on the pieces
i should be able to have one piece that switches to prot traits on spec switch
not like carrying around multiple sets
