protection

[uneven mason]

Treat best Necrotic

[modern brook]

Trees also op

[uneven mason]

*beats

[modern brook]

but they're generally OP

BoP is just OP for prot

Decent on everyone else

[uneven mason]

all my Boomkins quit

I'm very sad

[oblique garnet]

Did 15k dps without treants

Could probably push that higher alot

[uneven mason]

Necrotic weeks was when I ran 3 Boomkins

[oblique garnet]

Because it allows for more big pulls aswell

[uneven mason]

TREES

TREES EVERYWHERE

[keen spire]

Dota 2 Plug?

[uneven mason]

IKR

[keen spire]

lol

Yo guys

Can I just say

It's cool that that random guy asked a noob question and we all fuckin jumped on helping him genuinely

instead of berating him

like every other fuckin discord

[modern brook]

This is #protection

[stark sage]

[keen spire]

Kudos to you all

[modern brook]

We protect our kind

[quartz lake]

Yes. I appreciate it very much. You guys are a class act

[keen spire]

👏

[modern brook]

but its also not #protection on the pally discord

[keen spire]

^

[modern brook]

which i know nothing about but i have seen #ret there and its pretty 😬

[quartz lake]

That said, you can berate me for this one: Do you guys think it's worth race changing to DiD for the racials (from Human)?

[modern brook]

no

[keen spire]

gtfo charaid

[daring marlin]

nah

[modern brook]

i mean

yes

[keen spire]

😛

[modern brook]

but save your money

like Fireblood is dope

[quartz lake]

👌🏼

[modern brook]

its not 15 dollars dope

[stark sage]

coolfactor most important racial

[quartz lake]

i think it's $25

[stark sage]

DID for life

[keen spire]

^

[modern brook]

^

If you REALLY prefer DID to humans go for it

[keen spire]

Honestly dude, the racials don't have a huge impact on your tanking ability

[modern brook]

if you're changing bcuz Fireblood; wait till next week affixes and see if you still want it that bad

[oblique garnet]

^

[keen spire]

Pick the race that looks the coolest in that sweet, sweet plate gear

To you

[modern brook]

Also note Humans get more stats = scales the best always 100%

[quartz lake]

The ability to remove any debuffs seems pretty great. Especially since the human racial is basically a copy of Bezerker rage

[modern brook]

^ thats op tho you can keep 100% uptime on rezan!

[quartz lake]

true

[stark sage]

human racial is potentially the strongest racial, being able to break CCs is insanely powerful when you can take advantage ofit

[modern brook]

do they still get the rep bonus?

[keen spire]

Yeah

[modern brook]

manf uck allies get all the good shit

[stark sage]

sometimes it does nothing

[keen spire]

Reroll, Bull

Reroll

[modern brook]

Horde just gets sylvanas and the glory of not being allies

[quartz lake]

lol

[keen spire]

But we get all these shiny armors

you get spikes

[modern brook]

And maybe vmpire elves

I hope we do

[quartz lake]

And cannibalize tho

[keen spire]

And we have so many horses that we could make our own Spirit movie

[modern brook]

I'll reroll vampire elf

I'm not afraid to admit that I watched and enjoyed helsing

[quartz lake]

If I ever buy a mini van I'm going to get al icense plate that says H3LSING

[keen spire]

lol

[quartz lake]

<---clever today

[keen spire]

Just as long as you affix a giant crossbow to the top

[quartz lake]

the best affix

[modern brook]

😦

actually 😃

Giant cross bow would be blockable now

[oblique garnet]

Oh btw if youre going to do tol dagor heads up with the cannona they have scaled the damage up so they pretty much oneshot teammates

[modern brook]

thanks 8.1

TY for the heads up late

does that mean everyone stops playing 'cept for cannon guy?

[oblique garnet]

No just hope to god that the cannon guy doesnt shoot teammates

[modern brook]

Hmm good week to learn Tol Dagor then

if someone makes fun of you just get in the cannon

american public school that fucking key

[keen spire]

oh man

that fucking cannon

[modern brook]

PSA: be nice to everyone in your TD keys

[keen spire]

I can't tell you how enraged I got when my guildie was trolling our group on a +10

[modern brook]

no bullying this week

[keen spire]

He kept nuking the healer

like a fuckin dirtbag

[uneven mason]

@stark sage on the human racial 99% of stuns in raid zones won't break from it RIP (I used to be human on a warrior)

[oblique garnet]

Thats why i normally go in to the cannons

I can easily tank the abilities and not die

[uneven mason]

its nice for M+ tho

[stark sage]

@uneven mason oh really, i remember a lot of stuns in legion that you could break with it

[uneven mason]

its not Dark Iron "I eat this debuff and wreck stuff afterwords" nice

[modern brook]

Humans also look swag af in anything

BEcause u know they dont test anything on other races

[keen spire]

^

[modern brook]

Quick poll:

[dusk locust]

belts are too big on them imo

[modern brook]

Whats the most important non-thing you've ever learned playing Prot

ie: small shit that makes a huge difference

Mine is Iping between pulls

[daring marlin]

DID racisl is nice in dungeons for the bleed cleanse for sure

[stark sage]

actually realizing hc throw generates decent threat

[uneven mason]

its got a 500% bonus

multiplied by the taunt bonus

+++

[modern brook]

My favorite Prot moments (outside of applause) is when ur kiting and just running around throwing shit at ppl. This is what optimal tanking looks like

[oblique garnet]

Hold on with the shockwave stun when you have demon hunters in the group and same with spell reflect since they are always hogging those

[uneven mason]

the biggest little detail for prot is that you can spec crackling thunder and TC mobs way outside of their melee range

[dusk locust]

pay attention to your interrupt weakaura and get a sense of who interrupts and who doesn't. you can get off some pretty dependable spell reflects with 0 communication just based on that

[modern brook]

I just say dont kick next one

and then reflect it

[dusk locust]

so-and-so teammate has an interrupt available? don't bother spell reflecting

[steady fiber]

Guys any one can help? :/ Got some mins agon the Jes' Howler 365 ilvl and trinks i have are 360ilvl Rezan's Gleaming Eye and the 355 ilvl card for hp

[uneven mason]

Oh another little thing for prot - understanding that you can use attack power buffs as minor defensive boosts due to how IP works,

[lusty grotto]

I haven't learned shit about prot fam, I've been at it since vanilla

[steady fiber]

and dunno what better to change for howler

[uneven mason]

use JEs and Rezan's

[steady fiber]

k ty

[uneven mason]

thats our 2 BIS

more or less

[modern brook]

@steady fiber#487 Eye + deck. If you're not having trouble with dying Jes > Deck

[uneven mason]

^^

with our EHP Buff, you shouldn't need Deck anymore

[steady fiber]

hmm so deck leave or nah ?

[uneven mason]

use Jes wisely for survivability

up to you

[oblique garnet]

Idk about bis

[uneven mason]

I'd suggest jes and rez

[oblique garnet]

On jes

[modern brook]

Deck isnt necessary

And its a crutch

But froma pure survivability stand point

[uneven mason]

Jes is 'very strong

[lusty grotto]

Hey it occurs to me that I haven't posted a chef nimchip picture in a while

[modern brook]

365 jes will not out due deck

[spiral crypt]

Short Trinket Question: I got "Gore-Crusted Butcher's Blcok 385 with Socket .... Rezans 375 and Blockades... What should i use?

[modern brook]

365 Jes WILL do MUCH more damage though

[oblique garnet]

Rezan gore @spiral crypt

[modern brook]

So if you're not having trouble surviving, or just want the training wheels off, swap deck for jes

otherwise Deck it on up

@spiral crypt rez gore

[spiral crypt]

k thx 😃

[lusty grotto]

I wouldn't go for sub 385s vs deck..

[uneven mason]

@385 is when your general trinkets raw str will start to bypass the EHP on Blockades

[modern brook]

@lusty grotto it occurs to me u haven't posted a chef nimchip picture in a while

[uneven mason]

like the maximum value of blockades

[lusty grotto]

You're right bull

So very right

[modern brook]

also: thats 385 Block W/Socket

385 ~= deck

w/ socket is > deck easy

[lusty grotto]

Shit I don't have one since I'm on the phone but... Here's the quote of the day

👍

[oblique garnet]

You dont

You bring it to dps so silly little bdks can handle one or two mobs :^)

[modern brook]

yeah we're not tanks

We're Immortal defenders of Ger-- the party

[lusty grotto]

Quote of the day always delivers

[ember arrow]

How many times

[lusty grotto]

Thx mac for your picture of the day!

[uneven mason]

as many times

as it takes Levko

[ember arrow]

U gonna post that

[oblique garnet]

You lost

Why are you posting losses

Come back when nr1

[uneven mason]

Because I respect that DH

Because he's always like 6000 damage ahead of me

[modern brook]

.01M is 10k isnt it?

[oblique garnet]

Yes?

[modern brook]

so he's 60k ahead of Mac

not 6k

[lusty grotto]

Mac you did your best

[modern brook]

If u really wanted to show Prot utility you hould do a warfront

[lusty grotto]

That's 1 tclap

[modern brook]

then copy and paste your HORRIBLY inflated damage charts

[oblique garnet]

Thats what you get for not prioritizing clappage

[lusty grotto]

👢 🍵 👏 harder!

[oblique garnet]

Oh yeah baby time to wipe on big bad worm for the next 3.5hours 8)

[signal plover]

I just want one night of ghuun prog where nobody forgets its their turn to run an orb

220 wipes now.

Even changed up my mog for good luck

[quartz lake]

you need to sacrifice something

in RL

like a chicken

[ivory oxide]

Or a twinkey

[oblique garnet]

Steam that chicken real good

[signal plover]

I had the dogs rip up a flamingo on stream

It had marginal effects

[sick sentinel]

Why don’t they just make devastator baseline? While I was doing low level dungeons while leveling my warrior I noticed I almost never press devastate anyway

[lusty grotto]

Flamingos are jerks, I applaud your choice

[daring marlin]

devastate is garbo now

feelsbfaman

[signal plover]

Devastate is a bleh filler

[sick sentinel]

Yeah but no need to even press devastate 90% of the time

[signal plover]

It's got its place

Especially now with IP off the global

[sick sentinel]

I usually have enough rage to cap IP, SB, and use revenge.

Even tho I shouldn’t lol

[signal plover]

That will vary wildly depending on content tho

[sick sentinel]

Anyone know how long the CD on demo shout typically is?

[tropic star]

do you guys really have a maint tank and offtank in raid? Does it matter? with swap mechanics you are both doing the same job

[signal plover]

We call it co-tanks now

[sick sentinel]

Let’s say if you spend rage as you build it in general. I got overly excited seeing 15s with PvP talents lmfao

[tropic star]

then with certain bosses some classes are just better as some mechanics than others so go with that over a MT/OT scenario

[signal plover]

Demo is like 20-30 secs with AM

[oblique garnet]

On fetid you have ot and mt

[quartz lake]

Yeah I almost never have time to hit Devastate it seems. Shield Slam and TC and Revenge are almost alwasy up

though Dev does apply a bleed, right?

[oblique garnet]

Yes

[halcyon marsh]

is having 2 archive traits bad?

[tropic star]

revenge also applies the bleed

so you are good

[sick sentinel]

Which spec best compliments prot as far as gearing is concerned?

Fury or arms?

My main is DH and I like that they basically use the same stats as their best stat so I like to gear the same way on alts

[halcyon marsh]

should prot warriors only have 1 laser matrix and 1 archive? or is 2 archives ok?

[sick sentinel]

And why do few warriors play fury? I see both have top ranks on WCL

[signal plover]

Fury was behind arms in 8.0

It's doing well now I think

Better question for #fury

[uneven mason]

fury caught up halfway through 8.0

[signal plover]

@halcyon marsh generally speaking UD want 1 archive, 1 DC and 1 of the non raid specific traits. I think some ppl run double archive as well but haven't had a chance to try that myself.

[uneven mason]

they're both very good in 8.1

[halcyon marsh]

so it isn't wrong to spec 2 archives?

[outer dew]

No

It's fine

[halcyon marsh]

i.e is it redundant/useless to spec 2 archives

ok

[outer dew]

You run with 2x archive to push more aoe damage

[halcyon marsh]

its just confusing how azerite traits work

people say archive doesn't stack, but i'm being told having 2 of them is fine

like... question mark spam?

[outer dew]

They're talking about reorginatiom array

Archive stacks

[halcyon marsh]

so archive is primary stack

reorig is secondary

[outer dew]

Yes

[halcyon marsh]

ok i see

ty

[thorn remnant]

Would you replace a 345 shoulder with DC for a 370 shoulder with bloodsport?

[daring marlin]

yep

[thorn remnant]

Thanks

[uneven mason]

DC is only worth ~15 ilvls

maybe sit on a 370 vs 385

[modern brook]

Technically

All of ARchive stacks

it just turns out reorig=true twice is still true

[limber tulip]

Is there any point to have dev on my bars

[outer dew]

Yes

[dusk locust]

absolutely

[outer dew]

You'll have downtime in ST

[limber tulip]

👍

[modern brook]

UHHH

THe animation is dope af

also sometimes you dont have revenge on proc and dont wanna burn rage into it

[oblique garnet]

@outer dew You killed ghuun yet?

[outer dew]

Nah. And not gonna be home until next tier basically

[oblique garnet]

Yikes

[supple glacier]

is better blood rite or the ignore pain trait?

[quartz lake]

I don't think I use either of those when tanking

I use IP to mitigate damage and smooth out the overall damage mitigation

are those talents?

@supple glacier

[supple glacier]

yep

i have only this 2 choise

the ip one is better than haste?

[quartz lake]

I don't see either of those in the prot talent tree

[plain ice]

phew. @uneven mason posted the dps meter today. i thought the sun wasn't about to rise tomorrow for a sec

[supple glacier]

no is azerite

[quartz lake]

This guide breaks down the best azerite traits: https://www.wowhead.com/guides/protection-warrior-azerite-traits-powers-armor-bfa-battle-for-azeroth

[supple glacier]

ty man

[quartz lake]

Lists them in tiers of best to worst

yw

[supple glacier]

ty you made my day

[quartz lake]

of course

[steel mauve]

"Based on simulations" 🤔

[neon tangle]

I like blood rite a bunch in m+

[modern brook]

@supple glacier the only trait you should give a shit about is Impassive Vissage and DC

[neon tangle]

lots more killing of things keeps the buff up quite a bit

[modern brook]

DC > Ilvl> Impassive Visage

[supple path]

cool, server just hiccups and everyone in my group gets kicked and the mythic+ run is over when we log back on 10 seconds later.

Not a great sign for key pushing today.

[soft kindle]

Hope none of you abused the world boss loot bug last week

[uneven mason]

👏 Being alliance I was denied the opportunity

IMO they should wait until the first week of the new raid to start suspensions

or let them even know who is getting suspended

[oblique garnet]

Ayy atleast our p1 is clean on ghuun XD

[signal plover]

P1 never an issue

Wait I take that back

Every 10 pulls or so there's chronic cumballs everywhere

Other than that all gud

[oblique garnet]

The add hurts like a mf

[ivory oxide]

I like to watch it pound our dk

[signal plover]

It does?

I've always got LS up for it and it doesn't seem to be much of an issue even when I taunt boss to reset stacks.

Then again our hpal is prolly pumping the shit outta me

[uneven mason]

TFW you have bosses that do mostly raw physical damage - letting the BDK tank it

[ivory oxide]

It's ok, were bad. Most of the group ghosted after clearing heroic

[chilly brook]

@supple glacier as a general rule of thumb you should always use the prot specific traits over generic traits

[oblique garnet]

@lusty grotto Can you confirm?

[sick sentinel]

this dude is saying that prot isn't really good

B(

[lusty grotto]

hold on

i don't bop myself

so i can't confirm

[sick sentinel]

I played a paladin once and I've been laid B)

[lusty grotto]

i just bubble 🤷

who saying this weep

[sick sentinel]

a warrior in trade chat

[lusty grotto]

did you shut him the fuck up and tell him to sit the fuck down after you beat him in dps

oh

trade chat

[sick sentinel]

they say veng > war

monkaS

[lusty grotto]

i see

[lavish oracle]

Yeah, it's weird, there are still pockets of people that think prot is a dumpster fire

[uneven mason]

@sick sentinel getting bentover by a boss doesn't count as getting laid

[lusty grotto]

https://www.wowhead.com/news=289307/blizzard-issuing-suspensions-for-ivus-loot-bug?webhook/blizzard-issuing-suspensions-for-ivus-loot-bug

yikes

[lavish oracle]

The competitiveWoW subreddit is still jerking themselves off to DK

[lusty grotto]

rip someone i saw a stream with 👀

[uneven mason]

because DK lost no utility

[lusty grotto]

its reddit man

[uneven mason]

so they're still pretty king in M+

[lavish oracle]

Yeah, but even in raid

[uneven mason]

compedtive wow is pretyt spot on

Utility is a thing

[lusty grotto]

only go to reddit to be entertained

[uneven mason]

I mean, even in raids

[modern brook]

oh no

[uneven mason]

I wouldn't want to do Zul without grip

[modern brook]

its happening

[signal plover]

Tbh ppl can think prot warr is bad

We Kno more bettah

Y do u need a grip for Zul?

[uneven mason]

shh

[modern brook]

we used it pre-zerg to pull in the caster mobs

[signal plover]

U don't even need one for mythrax anymo

[sick sentinel]

@uneven mason no it was a real girl

[lavish oracle]

I'm not arguing DKs aren't good in specific fights but to put them as far ahead of paladin and warrior in raid rankings is just silly

[sick sentinel]

a real human girl

[uneven mason]

let the DKs cling

[sick sentinel]

but it was only the 1 girl

haven't been laid since

[modern brook]

Like sure we dont need grip now

[signal plover]

I'm down with being low key strawng tho

[lavish oracle]

Pallies, warriors, and DKs are all incredibly close in raid at the moment

[sick sentinel]

hey guys. do you know if have a brazilian wow server there ?

[lusty grotto]

it doesn't matter, it's the general reddit hivemind being fucking retarded like always

[sick sentinel]

please, i need this information ;-;

[signal plover]

Like, under the radar, not in low keys

Compwow is pretty gud my man

[lavish oracle]

We are incredibly strong in low keys, also, though 😄

[lusty grotto]

1 redditor is smart, 203123123213 redditors aren't

[oblique garnet]

Smh raid leader banned alcohol during raids

[signal plover]

Kek

[oblique garnet]

Might have to start playing sober now

[modern brook]

thats an inflated statistic nim

[lusty grotto]

hold on

[modern brook]

no one on reddit is smart

[lusty grotto]

hey now, let's be fair

[modern brook]

the people they steal their ideas from are smart

[lusty grotto]

/u/nimchip is very smart

[modern brook]

reddit is a 3rd party source so that 4th parties can relay 2nd party information to 5th parties (you)

aka garbo

[lusty grotto]

also a platform for russian bots don't forget

[signal plover]

Mfw there's solid resources for raid prog on compwow all the time

[modern brook]

lol late

whats ur rl gunna do

walk over and spill your drink

[lusty grotto]

cough ^please ^no ^politics ^^coughtrumpsubreddit

[oblique garnet]

oh damn no subscript here

hes gonna bench me

[signal plover]

Do u have a breathalyzer add-on?

How da fuck he gonna know

[sick sentinel]

let me just plug in my breathalyzer usb

[plain ice]

lolll

[modern brook]

in converts the booze into mainframes

[oblique garnet]

Well you know how after you have wiped many times on ghuun you wanna drink alot

[lusty grotto]

Late slurs after 1 appletini

[oblique garnet]

And i dont drink beer

[signal plover]

Can confirm

[oblique garnet]

I drink vodka or rum

[modern brook]

bad options

[signal plover]

Although ghuun is still pretty mild compared to Argus imo

[lusty grotto]

1 appletini it is for you Late

[oblique garnet]

Wouldnt know i hated legion

[modern brook]

argus is triggering

cause after like 8 fucking weeks

people still couldnt handle

[oblique garnet]

Never actually had an appletini

[modern brook]

"stand next to the pie chart"

[lusty grotto]

y u h8 legion, legion was good

[oblique garnet]

Suramar man

[modern brook]

like its not even a mechanic

[oblique garnet]

On a flightless warlock

fuck that zone

[lusty grotto]

i liked suramar

😦

[sick sentinel]

I liked suramar

[oblique garnet]

I still cant fly in legion

[lusty grotto]

yeah no flying fucking sucks in wow

and screw you if you defend no flying on expansions

[oblique garnet]

"AN ILLUSION WHO GOES THERE" Boom fucking 7000 elites come and gank your corpse multiple times

[modern brook]

imagine not being able to fly in the Horde Hub hahah

:^(

[lusty grotto]

jesus i was complaining about that yesterday

[oblique garnet]

the horde hub is really simple wtf are you on about

[modern brook]

the horde hub has a 1.05 gold tax to navigate

[lusty grotto]

oh let me go reforge my azerite, just book a flight to africa and ill be there np

[modern brook]

along with a 80% of your health tax whenever u need to visit prof trainers

[oblique garnet]

Nim

set your hs to the port

[lusty grotto]

yikes the profession trainers

[modern brook]

then u have to pay gold to go visit the great seal

for the stuff you gotta do there

[lusty grotto]

but i need to bank, np let me book a flight to china

i need to afk as my hpal so that yamo shows up

np np book another flight to bum-fuck indonesia or some shit

[modern brook]

Zuldazar is easily the least fun-to-navigate zone I've ever played

[lusty grotto]

imagine, if they put all the relevant shit on the same side

imagine

BUT WAIT how could we maintain subscriptions?! just have them take forever to get shit done in their city

[modern brook]

imagine if 1 of the fast travel points like actually got you to where you need to go without waiting for elevators, climbing stairs, or taking fall damage

[lusty grotto]

great idea bob, here's a non-raise cause we treat our employees like shit and fire them when the community huffs and puffs

[steady fiber]

btw guys what are best healer for prot war?

[lusty grotto]

because obviously you are responsible and not management 😃

the best healer is one that casts heals

and dpses when not casting heals

[modern brook]

My preferred healer is a tie between Disc preist and hpal

but nims got the diea

the best healer is the one at his keyboard

[sand egret]

whoever provides me emotional support in times of need

[lusty grotto]

yes, its the one you can rant in texts while sobbing and will be like "uh huh"

[sand egret]

hey now, I give you more than two words....

[lusty grotto]

incidentally you're ranting about stuff that you can easily fix, but you're too stupid and lazy to do so, so the easiest thing is just to spam drunken texts to this person

sobs

❤ my healer

[modern brook]

my favorite interaction with my healer to date is when I was tanking during necro/sanguine this exp

and im like dang why am i getting fucked up this pull?

and my healer was like You had 53 stacks from the previous pull and heroic leaped into the next one; i havent been healing you for the last 40 seconds

[zinc mauve]

the struggle is real

[lusty grotto]

true story

[modern brook]

I'm tryna go FAST

I aint got time to drop stacks

[zinc mauve]

the other week my priest showed my screenshots of a BDK she was healing for who kept linking his healing done after every single pull

which of course was more than the priests but it doesnt mean the priest sucked

[modern brook]

just have her counterlink with overhealing done

ezpz BDK big dumb idiot

[lusty grotto]

[zinc mauve]

dont worry, you can pay exact cash too

[lusty grotto]

ok i'll pay $0

[keen spire]

Foxes are my favorite

[lusty grotto]

YIKES

[keen spire]

So when I saw that, I was like OHDAMN

[lusty grotto]

are you a furry

[keen spire]

fuck that

no

Seahorses are also my favorite

[lusty grotto]

all im saying is

we have a furry channel #fury

[keen spire]

lol

[sand egret]

can't have two favorites

[keen spire]

Yes I can

[sand egret]

YOU.MUST.PICK.

[keen spire]

One for land

one for sea

[sand egret]

but what if a fox jumps into the ocean

[keen spire]

Then it is not a fox

[sand egret]

[keen spire]

It is a seafox

Very rare

[sand egret]

you had a very good opportunity to create the term, Foxsea

[lusty grotto]

seahorses are non-binary, makes sense for a furry mmhmm

[keen spire]

wut

They're totally binary

males just do the pregnancy thing

[lusty grotto]

oh

[sand egret]

can't they shift genders due to populations

[lusty grotto]

ok im totally confusing them with the sex changing frogs

[keen spire]

I don't think that's a seahorse thing

Maybe some subspecies

That being said, a LOOOOOOT of fish can do that

so perhaps

But also, I recently went to a VG tournament

and one of the commentators was walking around with a lion tail

and my friends and I made fun of him the whole time

.>

Oops.

[lusty grotto]

are you a biologist

what if he was a lion though

[keen spire]

Then he's delusional

[lusty grotto]

hold on hold on, lets not assume species here

[keen spire]

I think we can assume species all we want

[sand egret]

you just hating cuz he was showing off his pride.

[keen spire]

It just gets dangerous when you miscategorize them

AYO

nice

[lusty grotto]

all im saying is, i see a commentator with a lion tail, i'm locking my car doors and staying the fuck in it

[keen spire]

I'd rather stare at him quizzically

and listen to my friends crack jokes about him being a furry

[lusty grotto]

but what if he pounces

naw man

[keen spire]

If he pounces

well

You medallion out and storm bolt him

duh

[chilly brook]

I’d rather make fun of him xD

Jkjk

[oblique garnet]

oh baby we making progress

2nd orb rotation down

[lusty grotto]

i found a furry @keen spire

[keen spire]

hawt

[chilly brook]

On that subject I walked into my local movie theater to this

[lusty grotto]

ive seen things like this

on the interwebs

butt usually they go deep into

[quartz lake]

yeah buttplugs with tails

chaturbate

[lusty grotto]

thanks for ruining it

[quartz lake]

ya

[lusty grotto]

😢

[astral crystal]

Based furfriend

Yiff in heaven

[oblique garnet]

oh no

[lusty grotto]

did they start passing out the breathalizer late?

[daring marlin]

degenerates

vomit

[keen spire]

^

[chilly brook]

All I’m saying is Fury is one letter off 🤔

[lusty grotto]

i wonder what happens if he farts though

[primal crypt]

Why is that guy using buttplug tail?

Yikes

[lusty grotto]

murica

[primal crypt]

Nice movie theater fetish show off

[astral crystal]

he doesn’t leave the house fully plugged and caged

[sand egret]

tfw ya’ll dont realize its a belt

smh

[lusty grotto]

pls blade

[keen spire]

It's actually a reverse banana hammock

[sand egret]

i just find it funny that a bunch of wow nerds can talk shit about another person’s hobby lol. Boy have times changed

[sick sentinel]

NICE. Haste is the best secondary for all 3 specs. 😁

[sand egret]

and its fast 😃

[keen spire]

Do you even lift, bro?

[lusty grotto]

errr....

[keen spire]

half of WoW is a big ol pile of meatheads

[lusty grotto]

haste is only the best on ST for arms

crit is better for aoe

🤷

[keen spire]

Crit is best for Prot too

[sand egret]

twice

[lusty grotto]

and i dont know about furries cause that spec is not on my warrior

[keen spire]

Gotta get that parry

[lusty grotto]

pls no troll

[keen spire]

hehe

😏

[sick sentinel]

People don’t gear for AOE do they tho? Lol

I never have and never had an issue with it. If it’s really important I’ll just swap to an aoe favoring trinket lol

[lusty grotto]

they do if they wanna parse 100

either way secondaries are not as imporant as ilvl

[keen spire]

What if I wanna parse 69? 😏

[lusty grotto]

this is a good question

[daring marlin]

@sand egret I can make fun of furries. My better half is one. He just doesn’t flaunt it in public.

[signal plover]

First ur ilvl has to be 369

[daring marlin]

:^)

[signal plover]

Then your apm must be 69

[keen spire]

😲

[oblique garnet]

Oh my god

My group

Has 6 kings rest keys

I wanna end my life

[hot locust]

King's Rest ain't so bad this week with all the nerfs imo.

[bleak vigil]

ez instance

[oblique garnet]

Its just that i despise that place

[hot locust]

That's definitely fair. I still hate it too. 😛

[oblique garnet]

And everytime we do that place as a group i swear theres some sort of mental block on everyone as soon as we get to the bridge and everyone turns of their brain

I do better on pugs with no comms than my premade in kr

[keen spire]

o.O

🤔

But they just nerfed KR

pretty hard

[oblique garnet]

I only did kr last week and it was aids with teeming

Havent done one this week

[lusty grotto]

i timed it last week

😉

[oblique garnet]

On what lvl

Oh +10

[thorn mango]

i swear,pre made group finder needs an option to exclude classes,try to set a group for KR and i have not one,but TWO warriors queing....when im already playing one....

[lusty grotto]

what's wrong with having a second warrior?

[thorn mango]

......because there'd be THREE total in my group

[lusty grotto]

so?

[thorn mango]

thats kinda my point lol

[lusty grotto]

they bring the deeps

[thorn mango]

alliance side doesnt have a way to mass purge the minions though,i need a priest for that

[oblique garnet]

berserker rage and thunderclap

So who's getting banned this week? XD

[primal crypt]

soooo many people

[shut summit]

Rip them

[lusty grotto]

heheheheh i know 1 person that did that

[primal crypt]

a very large population farmed that boss

[lusty grotto]

HEHEHEHEHEHEHE

not me though

[primal crypt]

bragging about how much titan residuum they were getting

[lusty grotto]

was a certain dh in my group

[primal crypt]

from scrapping

[thorn mango]

year and a half bans,wow.....i dont remember the expoit at the start of BFA being this severe,dropping the hammer for real

[primal crypt]

it's because sooo many people did it

there were farm groups

and they were scrapping the azerite armor

someone claimed he got like 500 titan residuum

[sand egret]

ahem

Rekt.

[thorn mango]

well,at least it'll be interesting to see what guilds got hit,cause a year and a half,thats pretty much the end of BFA's lifetime more or less

[sand egret]

you gotta imagine any guild worth their salt in any high ranking scenario would NOT risk something as flagrant as that

that's just dumb, tbh

[primal crypt]

one guild just lost 3 of their mythic raiders

friend of mine

[sand egret]

alas, prob not cuz people are dumb

[daring marlin]

World boss giving loot repeatedly? THIS MUST BE INTENDED!!!!

[sand egret]

so

[primal crypt]

just said they're petitioning

[sand egret]

🍿

ididots

[daring marlin]

Nothing of value was lost

[regal karma]

any tips for Necro?

[primal crypt]

bring a boomkin

[sand egret]

pre-question: are you a dorf

[lusty grotto]

kite like in legion

[primal crypt]

bring a monk

[sand egret]

if not

[primal crypt]

with ring of peace talented

[sand egret]

monk/boom/shaman if your low budget

[lusty grotto]

wtf there are monks without RoP talented?

[daring marlin]

boomie/monk/any pally

[sand egret]

and get someone with a 50% slow.

[primal crypt]

oh yeah

bop works too

[lusty grotto]

nimchipadin to the rescue

jk nimchipadin failed with yamo

[primal crypt]

??

[shut summit]

Moonkins seriously make the affix seem like it doesn't exist

[lusty grotto]

let his wife die so many times

[primal crypt]

Nim did great

[shut summit]

Is ridic

[sand egret]

Tree Amigos MVP

[primal crypt]

nimchipadin op

plus I was mongo pulling

[lusty grotto]

that reminds me to look at logs

cause your wife was getting wrecked by something

[primal crypt]

bleeds

because I was kiting

[lusty grotto]

also my dh friend with bleeds

[primal crypt]

yup

double stack

[lusty grotto]

hmm

[sand egret]

What is....KR?

[primal crypt]

AD

[lusty grotto]

i can only bop so many times 😦

[sand egret]

ahh zombeez

[primal crypt]

crushers

their bleeds suck too

[daring marlin]

Fireblood for the bleed stacking dicks

[sand egret]

what bleeds?

[daring marlin]

ez

[lusty grotto]

hmmmmmmm

ill check

[primal crypt]

....shhh

[sand egret]

hek hek hek

[lusty grotto]

but i mismanaged my cds

anyway

[primal crypt]

no one is going ally

[sand egret]

excellent....

[primal crypt]

I can't leave my highmountain

should come heal this 13 nim 😄

[sand egret]

could be a nightborne for that ability to apply a 50% slow

eyyyyy

[lusty grotto]

im skeered

is it a siege?

cause no thx

grievous tyr siege left scars on nimchipadin

[primal crypt]

I dont know what it is

[sand egret]

y u no liek invaderz

[lusty grotto]

that fucking stupid knockback dot

you know whats funny is that i didnt know about the tentacle skip

and my stupid rogue friend mentions it AFTER we wiped 3 times on it

[sand egret]

very roguelike

[daring marlin]

shh

[lusty grotto]

it got fixed though i thought

[sand egret]

it did

in fact it's worse now apparently since they auto aggro and therefore start slammin'

[lusty grotto]

mmm yeah

[sand egret]

/cancelaura Blessing of Protection right?

[lusty grotto]

yup

[sick sentinel]

so

is the tank getting 85 explosive corruptions in a row

like

intended

[oblique garnet]

On what

[sick sentinel]

goon

[oblique garnet]

Hc?

[sick sentinel]

norm

[oblique garnet]

Well yeah

It targets the tank currently tanking the boss but you can sr it

You can sr every other basically

[sick sentinel]

didn't know that it targeted current threat

[oblique garnet]

@shut summit what do you think is the hardest dungeon this week?

[sick sentinel]

kr

[thorn mango]

so i just +2'd KR 5,ended up with motherlode 7,not sure how i feel about that honestly with necrotic lol i may or may not decide to want to tank that one

[sick sentinel]

and siege

[shut summit]

kings rest

council boss throw axe dot is still awful

[oblique garnet]

Only hard part about siege is the last part

Even after the nerf?

[junior ivy]

siege got nerfed?

[thorn mango]

they all did

[oblique garnet]

No

Siege got buffed

[junior ivy]

late i always think your pic is an owl

[stone imp]

Siege is not that bad.

[oblique garnet]

Cant cheese the last platform and if you tank the 3rd boss wave you dead af

[junior ivy]

this weekend im playin wow

to get that mount

[oblique garnet]

Nah catfriend its goofy

[lusty grotto]

boss wave is ez to avoid though

[sick sentinel]

kr on quaking sucks

too

[lusty grotto]

quaking was last week though

[sick sentinel]

"too"

[oblique garnet]

^

[junior ivy]

i kinda miss wow lol

[oblique garnet]

Tol dagor is free this week

[lusty grotto]

still timed it 😄

[oblique garnet]

The cannon buffs just make the last part of the dungeon such a joke

[lusty grotto]

yay me

its too bad i need a WM to get my rank up

[oblique garnet]

Atleast you and your group doesnt have only kings rest keys

[lusty grotto]

those are my alts though

[oblique garnet]

Ye figured

[lusty grotto]

i think we have a shrine 😦

that i definitely need

yikes me

[oblique garnet]

Idk how i feel about shrine

Im conflicted

[sick sentinel]

Kr was fine for us because we used a defensIve for the axe

And bop

[oblique garnet]

Yeah no bosses are w/e usually for my group

Its the bridge

That somehow always fucks us up

[sick sentinel]

I never has a problem with the shrine bridge

[oblique garnet]

Im talking about kr bridge

[sick sentinel]

Oh

The way we did it actually is kill the room and fat boy

[oblique garnet]

I get war flashbacks from the first week of m+

[sick sentinel]

Invis pot to the last pack

[oblique garnet]

Shroud out or deathskip?

[sick sentinel]

kill that + zerkers

And you can skip middle pack as well when going for last boss

[oblique garnet]

With shroud or?

[sick sentinel]

Shroud works, deathskip works

We ninja pulled and ended up killing it

I guess you can HC leap and run and healer can rez you

[oblique garnet]

Yeah

[lusty grotto]

you know i kinda wish wow had that breath of the wild thing where if you were auto-running your mount would follow the paths

[sick sentinel]

But yeah, first 2 packs of bridge can be skipped

And first pack is infested as well so you save a lot of time

[oblique garnet]

Yhjö

I guess

Gotta convince my group to run it tmrw

[sick sentinel]

We timed a 14 with 7 seconds left

With the most random team

Spriest dh arcane mage

[oblique garnet]

Huh

This week feels pretty good with boomkin

[sick sentinel]

No rogues no boomies

[modern gyro]

Hi can you tell me how prot warrior is good now?

[oblique garnet]

Pretty good

[sick sentinel]

Yeah, we got a boomie for all the others we run

@modern gyro still depends on the player because he is still 100% proactive

But if you play him correctly, he puts in work

[lunar sparrow]

Any tips on running orbs on Ghuun as prot?

[oblique garnet]

Get a warlock gate and its ez

[modern gyro]

I can't make decision who i should pick now pally or warrior

[oblique garnet]

Pick whoever you enjoy most

[lunar sparrow]

can solo on Mythic without issue?

[oblique garnet]

Yes you can solo on mythic but soloing is always bit risky

[modern gyro]

Here is problem i enjoy both

[lunar sparrow]

ok cool ty - ill leave that up to RL to decide

[sick sentinel]

Left is portal-charge-leap-charge and right it's portal charge-charge-leap

You can get a freedom before picking up the orb, right?

[lunar sparrow]

oh nice - that is helpful

I don't know if I will get one allocated to me - but if its a must that I can bring it up

[oblique garnet]

Or id you have portal from mid to end its charge leap charge

[sick sentinel]

If you get it after you pick up the orb you drop it I think

[oblique garnet]

You can avatar if you get rooted so should be nbd

[lunar sparrow]

mmmm why would I need the freedom? Can't make it the whole way without getting rooted?

[sick sentinel]

@modern gyro you have the choice of bringing HPS and or bringing dps

@lunar sparrow Is risky but yeah, you can do what late said

Pressing avatar clears roots

So make sure it is off CD when you run

[lunar sparrow]

ok - so freedom is just to help ensure I can solo it? or is it necessary?

[oblique garnet]

Help mostly

[lunar sparrow]

ok cool - thanks for the input

[oblique garnet]

The ghuun fight is starting to annoy me

Theres so many moving parts that can go wrong

[sand egret]

KR 3rd boss is just...so.... ugh.

should seen the writing on the wall when I found out a lil' too late that the hunter "didn't have a soothe pet"

[ionic berry]

Any prot tips for H GHuun?

[oblique garnet]

Keep up demoshout ip and use spell reflect on every explosive corruption you can

And shieldblock

[sand egret]

and apparently a lot of patience 😃

[oblique garnet]

Nah thats mythic

Hc has less moving parts

[sick sentinel]

How do i get better about dealing with necrotic? i did a +9 FH but i screwed it up with the stacks on a couple of bad pulls

[primal crypt]

having a weak aura helps

to show how fast you're accruing the stacks

[sick sentinel]

3rd time dealing with necrotic and first time in a 9 probably didn't help much

A) get the weak aura to make your stacks more visible
B) bring a slow
C) get around 30 stacks, shockwave and leap away

okay, i found a WA for necrotic like 5 minutes ago. got that set up

what scares me about it most is that it lasts for 10 seconds, just glad it goes away after you clear trash

so gotta find room to kite for up to 7 seconds

I run with a holy pala sometimes and I made a cancelaura macro so he can bop me and I can remove it

[primal crypt]

I have both a boomkin and monk in my group

[sick sentinel]

Also get tree amigos

[primal crypt]

paladin bop

with cancelaura macro

[sick sentinel]

okay i will keep bop in mind for next time, that doesn't remove aggro like days of old right?

It does

[stone crag]

for the duration of bop

that's why you have a cancelarua macro

as soon as bop gets casted on you, you cancel it

bop drops stacks immediately

[sick sentinel]

hmm okay that's really interesting.

[primal crypt]

#showtooltip Victory Rush
/cancelaura Bladestorm
/cancelaura Blessing of Protection
/cast Victory Rush

I use that in both dps and prot specs

when the bop comes in, pre spam that macro

[lusty grotto]

heheheheh i have my bladestorm cancel on pummel

since tbc 😃

also had it on shattering

[primal crypt]

I have another bladestorm cancel on my charge

[lusty grotto]

i used it a lot in pvp

arenas

[primal crypt]

yup

it's super important

[sick sentinel]

one day i will succesfully tank a +10

today is not that day, but someday

[sand egret]

tbf, depending on how you pull you don't need to kite that much imho

but when you have to, timing a CC as you leap is huge

shockwave+leap

[outer dew]

I can't imagine a world where I don't chest anything under 12

[sand egret]

well ain't you pissing champagne🤦

[sick sentinel]

Well, let the man rise up a little bit, he's still learning, don't bring him down like that

[sand egret]

[chilly brook]

I can imagine the world in which that happens quite a bit

Mainly because I’ve lived it

[sick sentinel]

I wanna flex on the dps with my double 390 BoM but I have to kite, I hate this week

Might as well bring 2 boomkins so I don't ever have to run

[chilly brook]

Why 2? Why not just go all the way and take 3

Hmmm so here’s the question

Do I resub now and start playing without my mmo mouse or do I just wait until I get back to school and have this said vital component?

[sand egret]

ugh wait

i cant imagine a world without that

cuddles mouse

[chilly brook]

Kinda partway my thoughts

But since I’m considering swapping out roles just to keep things fresh I’m also thinking that I don’t need it because I don’t need to have my mouse to level really

[sick sentinel]

dude I went back to my family home without any of my PC stuff

it is HORRIBLE

my excuse for not having done a 10 yet is that i never played in legion or wod, so this whole mythic dungeon and M+ was completely new to me when i hit 120

[sand egret]

don't need an excuse mate, you got this shit. necrotic is probably the most mechanically demanding of the normal affixes

oh and a neat little tip to make it less clunky is to swing your camera (NOT your character!) 180 degrees. then you can just cast shockwave and instantly jump backwards. 40 yards + 50% slows should be good enough to clear any stacks

[quiet crane]

Honesty necrotic seems daunting at first but when you know how to manage it

It’s a free affix honestly expecially if you have someone help with slows

[sand egret]

whispers

booooomkinnnn

[lusty grotto]

mm

server restarts hmm

[neon tangle]

@sick sentinel it's my first xpac back since cata

[outer dew]

I mean

[neon tangle]

you can do some 10's ❤

[outer dew]

Get better mentality

I went into expac believing I'll be able to push hard

And get at least minimum

If you're always afraid and set things higher than they're actually are

You're never getting anything done

[grand idol]

yo, is ghuun trinket any good for prot?

[outer dew]

You're good enough for everything. You just gotta get experience and get better

Delete that shit

Don't even scrap it

It doesnt even deserve a scrap

[grand idol]

why? I heard that its pretty good dmg in dungeons

[outer dew]

??

Where did you hear this?

[neon tangle]

It sims fairly high on my BDK if that makes you feel any better

[grand idol]

someone said that its one of the best tank trinkets for dps

[outer dew]

And i swear I've seen those fuckers pull random trash

[neon tangle]

I would argue that it's marginally better for tank classes that value vers more

[sick sentinel]

getting a treadmill come christmas, plan to get on it every day/other day so hopefully by being in better physical health, mental health will improve too

[neon tangle]

you already got a treadmill, yo

it's called the wow loot grind

[sick sentinel]

i actually am getting a treadmill, lol, parents already went to pick it up

i feel you though, stuck with a 360 shield and 360 servants cleaver, cuz weapon and shield drops never happen

[quiet crane]

@sand egret trees are friends crom could learn a thing or two even saurfang since broxigar used an enchanted axe from a guy who gets down with the tree’s 😉

[open bluff]

Pls it's rings that don't drop

[quiet crane]

Well

I’ll tell you what does drop

Cloaks

Many many cloaks

[open bluff]

hides behind 385 shield

[quiet crane]

😧

😡 jealous

Hopefully for Christmas all my tanks get a shiny upgrade

Although idk what I’d like for my monk I got a 390 tforge wep on him

[primal crypt]

@oblique garnet

[ionic oyster]

how are you doin that much dmg? lol

[sick sentinel]

joined a +14 tol dagor pug

see a druid in there, feeling good

it's a feral

🤦

[sand egret]

gotta respect the balls on that kitty

[chilly brook]

@ionic oyster it’s not that crazy just pull big

[plain ice]

just did a pug uldir. other warrior tank had indomitable

i asked why

said he was going for shield slam damage reduction

[sand egret]

and he was like YOU CANT DOMINATE ME

[chilly brook]

Oof

[plain ice]

"for shadow damage"

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[sand egret]

sick

[plain ice]

LOL

[sand egret]

got them strats

[chilly brook]

Just tell him he’s a dummy

[sand egret]

dude is playing 4D chess

[chilly brook]

Ez claps
