Kite more depending on affixs, and ur comp

#

Boomy tend to be favoured for weeks like grievous/Necro

stone crag
#

r.io score doesn't matter if you never pug :smart:

sick sentinel
#

Lol

#

Ur not even wrong

lavish oracle
#

I wish I didn't have to PUG

warm sierra
#

Im in a server with only a handful (like 50) fairly good m+ players and they all have their teams, so building a score is the only way i have to push to good content lol.

sick sentinel
#

I prefer pugging, gives me more of a challenge

lavish oracle
#

I mean, you can get into teams with people from other servers

sick sentinel
#

It's why I kinda dislike raids

warm sierra
#

@lavish oracle Only if you have a good score or 8/8M on the first months

main vault
#

That is 100% false

#

If you don’t think there are players like you on other servers you are wrong

#

Kjells Angels started as a pug team

lavish oracle
#

Honestly, as a tank people add you after runs all the time; the challenge is finding people you like who are also of a similar skill level

main vault
#

Exactly

#

As you pug you find a dps who isn’t shit

#

Then a healer

#

Then you have a team

#

If you want it you have to make it happen not expect someone else find you

uneven mason
#

Nexii and I agree on something

#

quick, is the sky bleeding?

somber dragon
#

yes

main vault
#

Had to happen eventually since I am always right

uneven mason
#

RIP sorry boys, caused the end of the world

main vault
#

Even you have to be right sometimes

uneven mason
#

I think its more like the broken clock being right twice a day

main vault
#

Lol

warm sierra
#

Yeah, i had a full team with good players (and friendly) before, its a complete different way to play the game lol. But some quit the game, some got really casual and some went to another team. So im trying to get a new one. And as a dps from an unpopular server it makes things way harder. As a tank, it might be different.

main vault
#

I mean I’m a blunt guy

#

But if it doesn’t happen it’s on you

sand egret
#

i dunno what happened but I blame Mac

main vault
#

Server and etc is bullshit

#

Idc what server people are from if they can’t interrupt or don’t stun

warm sierra
#

I had one tank that joined my group, and after i said "hello", he left. Then he whispers me: "10/10 people of your server have no skills at all". I replied i have 3 more mythic kills than you, and my main has more score as well. People are just dumb sometimes.

main vault
#

Individual people sure

#

Unless you are from Raggy

#

Then it’s true

warm sierra
#

😃

#

got it

uneven mason
#

I mean, case in point, my server is a tiny server, with very casual players, annnnnnd then its got Jdot

main vault
#

Are you on Turylon?

uneven mason
#

yeah

main vault
#

So?

#

Jdot

#

Shakib

#

Babylonius

uneven mason
#

more or less, the server at large would push you to thinking "man, not much here" but its got some of the top M+ folks, cause thats what they decided todo, Was supporting the whole idea that "no such thing as a shit server" (except ragnaros)

main vault
#

Not even m+

#

Some of the best theorycrafters in the game

uneven mason
#

F

cinder nova
#

FUCK

#

WHAT?

sand egret
#

streaming culture just killing fun

warm sierra
#

at least they fixed the cyclone strike

cinder nova
#

IS THAT BULLSHIT

stone crag
#

old news

#

😃

sand egret
#

what was wrong with cyclone strike?

uneven mason
#

boss was tracking folks

stone crag
#

it's in the SR spreadsheet notes

uneven mason
#

one shotting you

sand egret
#

people don't just walk backwards....?

uneven mason
#

"BACKPEDALING WTF"

warm sierra
#

@sand egret The animation of the boss followed you, but the cone was still still where it was first casted

sand egret
#

ahh ok i get that

#

that's gross

uneven mason
#

yeah, water dude in shrine does that shit with his charge occasionally

warm sierra
#

you kinda positioned all guys infront of the tank and it was easy to get through it, but for random people it was a mess

uneven mason
#

wwas in a shrine 12 and the healer ate it cause boss was spinning like a top

#

Also

#

fuckers in KR

#

doing that shit

sand egret
#

yeah im ok with the tracking, but impact zone not matching up is straight busted

#

guess I never noticed it

sick sentinel
#

It was basically the problem with the 2nd boss from shrine

#

But to a lesser extent

cinder nova
#

tbh I hit the jackpot on temple

sick sentinel
#

Fuck u

chrome falcon
#

these ghuun nerfs are fucking hilarious considering we had a 200k hp wipe yesterday

#

😃 🔫

sick sentinel
#

Two times I tried shrine. Both times, my rogue/DH couldn't fucking watch cleave

chrome falcon
#

i can't believe we could SR the mushrooms though that is hilarious, how much damage did it do?

sick sentinel
#

More than you think, less than you hope

warm sierra
#

Ah one final noob question. I usually play with 170-190ms, would this be a critical issue for playing the spec?

sick sentinel
#

If ur used to it, and can play around it then no

#

If ur struggling right now with it, then yes

errant shuttle
#

is prot war spell reflect patched?

sick sentinel
#

Yup

warm plinth
#

Yeah. Hotfixed today.

sick sentinel
#

Damn

smoky moon
sick sentinel
#

Gotta nerf the slug fuck for the people who aren't CE or can't put Ghuun on farm yet

warm plinth
#

Plot twist: They nerfed his HP to make up for the 3 million HP you can't spell reflect now 😂

sick sentinel
#

Exactly

warm plinth
#

In positive news, they fixed Adderis facing every which way during Cyclone Strike

#

So you can see where he's casting it now

chrome falcon
#

jesus fucking christ that is hilarious

sick sentinel
#

I'm kinda glad I barely learn or find out about these bugs/exploits until almost after the fact

chrome falcon
#

i'm so mad i missed out on that

warm plinth
#

I still miss the last fun SR glitch

#

Sending Dargrul flying through the air from reflecting Molten Crash 😂

sick sentinel
#

Wait did they fix the cheese in Temple since they fixed that snake fuck

stone crag
#

🤣

warm plinth
#

It doesn't actually say they did, but that's a good question.

sick sentinel
#

I swear to fuck if they didnt

stone crag
#

sending dargrul flying was great

warm plinth
#

But it could be undocumented

sick sentinel
#

Makes sense

#

But I swear if they didn't

#

I'm using that stupid exploit

warm plinth
#

Probably the kind of thing you wouldn't share even slightly how to do so people don't try to do it with other shit lol

sick sentinel
#

If whoever found that shit out, u know they are trying like 100 different ways for other dungeons

warm plinth
#

Idk, I was saying yesterday that it'd be mechanically easy to fix: just make it so you can't activate a key if a boss in that dungeon is dead. IIRC you can still reset mythics to respawn everything; just can't get loot twice in a week.

#

Oh yeah, for sure.

sick sentinel
#

For all we know they might find some invisible stairs in KR that let's u skip the trash and go to all the bosses or some shit

#

Or, they figure out a way to just delete KR

warm plinth
#

lol. Go in, drop key, type the Konami code, instant key completion

sick sentinel
#

At least I'm given another option for KR that isn't blowing my brains out

warm plinth
#

If you get too annoyed, you can do Gates of Hell in ToS

#

😂

sick sentinel
#

its not fixed, just did it for an 18

main vault
#

It’s game files duh

sick sentinel
main vault
#

Like AQ

warm plinth
#

RIP

sick sentinel
#

What isn't fixed prawn

main vault
#

Delete them and you don’t need %

#

Temple I bet

sick sentinel
#

Nothing, move along

main vault
#

Yup a Temple

sick sentinel
#

I

#

Cant

#

Fucking

#

Believe

#

This shit

main vault
#

Really though?

warm plinth
#

So we fix SR reflecting Malignant Growth, but you can still trivialize a dungeon.

main vault
#

At this point you can’t?

#

Cause I can

sick sentinel
#

I can and cant

warm plinth
#

I can. Small indie company.

sick sentinel
#

I GUESSS EVERYONE IS GONNA THREE CHEST THERE FUCKING KEYS IT SEEMS

warm plinth
#

So angry

sick sentinel
#

It's in the name

warm plinth
sick sentinel
#

Even I have to live up to it

main vault
#

So does it work if I leave after the third and keep my lockout?

#

Can I just keep running it after?

#

As long as I go last boss first?

sick sentinel
#

Idk, man, who cares. It dumb. I hate this

#

Fucking why

main vault
#

Cause I haven’t done it

#

But I will now

sick sentinel
#

Ur not the only one

#

Christ, this is so fucking stupid

warm plinth
#

Gonna have people's .ios looking like 11, 10, 11, 10, 9, 12, 11, 10, 11, 23

main vault
#

Lol

sick sentinel
#

Lmao

#

I can't believe I'm actually angry about this stupid shit

oblique garnet
#

Lul

sick sentinel
#

At least I can take solace in the fact that a Prot warrior did more damage(duh) and more healing than a bdk, who were both similar geared

timber nest
#

where in the log do you check spell reflected damage?

main vault
#

@sick sentinel someone in Bear said his mate told him he was watching a stream where they tried it but it didn’t work

astral crystal
#

It’s confirmed now

#

By a blue post

stone crag
#

link?

astral crystal
#

MMO-champ

#

Check blue posts top left

surreal stump
#

u mean teh door opening? or the last boss buff cheese?

astral crystal
#

Oh I meant ghuun exploit

surreal stump
#

oh yeah hotfixed ;/

stone crag
#

pretty sure nexi is talking about the temple shit

surreal stump
#

they had topost twice

#

cause someone forgot its a new year

#

Rhan’ka’s Escape Plan is no longer usable in Mythic keystone dungeons, raids, or rated PvP areas. fucking wowhead

main vault
#

Yup

#

Temple shit

surreal stump
#

the doors were whatever, but getting the buff from last boss and using it to clear whole dungeon was stupid lol

main vault
#

Is it fixed?

sick sentinel
#

It fucking better be

surreal stump
#

supposedly per the redit been hotfixed i dotn see in notes tho

#

but everyones whos trying reports they cant do it

main vault
#

Ok

sick sentinel
#

Well time to wait tommorow and see if people get banned or have some shit rolled back

#

Because if not, oh boy I can't wait for the next bug because I will be using it

daring patrol
#

RIP, never got to try it

#

feels bad

sick sentinel
#

I personally don't care I got a +16 tyrn done, so I'm good

#

Just fucking bothers me

astral crystal
#

Lesson learned, don’t put too much stock on third party imaginary scoring systems for a game devs give less than 2 shits about

main vault
#

If we didn’t there would be no point in playing

astral crystal
#

Now you’re thinking with an advanced siddhi

#

Open your third eye

#

And quit WoW

main vault
#

Honestly was going to until I picked War up

merry cave
#

Lol why nerf ghuun now.. bit late 2 weeks before next teir

wheat bronze
#

I got the 385 upgrade token for pvp this week

#

Do you think +15 azerite shoulders or +10 weapon

#

Azerite probably?

#

That's a good amount of primary

#

Plus better traits

sick sentinel
#

link both

oblique garnet

silver egret
#

Morning peeps , as a prot warrior i noticed having fun tanking everything with almost no exceptions but zul

#

did anyone face any problems against that mf ?

#

Talking about Mythic

oblique garnet
#

Zul is annoying piece of shit with the worst mechanic ever

silver egret
#

the Bleed Dot really hurt

#

and in mere seconds i find myself dead

dim blaze
#

How important is shield ilvl? Can’t find stuff regarding that in stat weights (like block stat)

#

My shield is 345 and can’t find a damn shield

silver egret
#

higher shield = more armor

#

like Casters weapons with intellect

dim blaze
#

Really want a dang shield upgrade then lol

stone crag
#

shield is incredibly important

#

armor and block are priority

sick sentinel
#

it shouldn't be that bad for you

#

the dot is physical

#

if its breaking your balls, just do 3 stacks

stone crag
#

what does it being physical have to do

sick sentinel
#

it ticks for a lot less on warriors

#

if you're keeping IP and staying in the aoe healing until the last second

#

you really shouldn't be getting owned

#

sounds like a healer issue

lavish oracle
#

It ignores armor

stone crag
#

Bleeds bypass armor if that's what you're getting at

lavish oracle
#

It doesn't tick for any less on warrior than it does on another tank

#

aside from during IP, anyways

stone crag
#

if anything it'd be less on bear considering their main mitigation is armor stacking

#

but since it bypasses all armor...

lavish oracle
#

Yeah, not sure what bears are supposed to do

#

get fucked, I guess

sick sentinel
#

really? it ignores armor?

#

thats so weird if true, I take far less damage on prot than dk from the dot

#

could just be IP uptime I suppose

#

are you sure?>

stone crag
#

100%

#

with certainty, bleeds bypass armor

#

there have been a couple exceptions, but zul's is not one of them

cinder nova
#

Bleeds have ignored armor for OVER A DECADE.

stone crag
#
Wowpedia

Bleeds are damage over time debuffs that deal physical damage. As a physical debuff, bleeds generally cannot be removed until the debuff expires, although there are a few means of doing so. In addition, bleed effects cannot be resisted and ignore armor. Warriors, rogues, drui...

sick sentinel
#

Not going to lie

#

Confused

cinder nova
#

What's there to be confused about?

oblique garnet
#

Its because you dont take that much damage from zul as you do on your dk

sick sentinel
#

warrior

#

dk

#

except same amount of stacks, prot is far less <_<

#

if it's a bleed ignoring armor

#

shouldn't they be almost identical

cinder nova
#

No.

#

You're not factoring literally anything else that can absorb damage.

#

Also DR

#

Demo Shout + Wall makes a happy tank

sick sentinel
#

if it's absorbed it still would be reflected here

cinder nova
#

A lot of other warriors are showing ~60K average ticks

ionic fern
cinder nova
#

It's probably just DR paired against uptime.

#

Check buffs both external and internal

#

See what's up during each point you had stacks

stone crag
ionic fern
#

Easiest way is go to "EVENTS" and check the number behind "R:" that should be the raw damage w/o any mitigation.

#

So first tick's raw damage was 29.4k

#

Same for my paladins co-tank

#

And same for a random BDK

#

And now check mitigation

sick sentinel
#

Oh thats super useful

#

Wtf

#

Chur

#

Literally just shout and good ip usage

#

thats the difference

#

and you're right, big SB made a huge difference

ionic fern
#

I mean, warrior is all about mitigation with Shield Wall & SR & Demo & IP. 😂

sick sentinel
#

SW* not SB

#

Of course

#

It's more I just couldn't understand him saying he was getting destroyed

#

When on prot it felt safer LOL

#

But it's good to understand exactly why

oblique garnet
#

Im just worried with the way how warrior is now it will be gutted in 8.1.5

ionic fern
#

2 weeks after raid release.

#

😄

oblique garnet
#

Or that

#

Like i have a feeling blizzard will go overboard and turn it into bear tier

#

Prebuff

ionic fern
#

And buffs to BDK/Monk to remain the kings.
Paladin gets nothing so stays mid pack
Warrior gets EN treatment
VDH doesn't exist
Druid gets a buff to get back up there.

#

Every balancing patch ever.

#

😂

sick sentinel
#

Lowkey been keeping my druid relevant just in case

oblique garnet
#

Im legit rerolling into dps if that happens

sick sentinel
#

Im prepared

main vault
#

Im quitting WoW

stone crag
#

👏

main vault
#

If they nerf War I dont have time for this shit anymore

warm plinth
#

Well, BDK and Monk got nerfed last time, so I don't think that'll happen. Worst case scenario they stay where they are tbh. Paladins really aren't bad right now I thought. VDH and druids both need something to change horribly though. I think Warrior is in a good spot right now, though our damage is probably a little over the top.

main vault
#

Monk nerf

#

:lul:

ionic fern
#

Paladins ain't bad, thats why i said that they get nothing. 😄

#

They rarely touch paladins

main vault
#

Pally is fine

#

War is fine but needs dmg nerf

#

DK is actually fine now, Monk needs more nerf

warm plinth
#

Only change I'd make to pally is take HotP back off of the GCD

main vault
#

The other two, yikes

sick sentinel
#

pally off healing is underrated asf for prog

#

imo

warm plinth
#

Druids definitely got a much needed damage buff, and tbh I don't know what would make them viable again in M+. I think reverting Frenzied Regen back to a % of damage taken would be a nice start though.

#

Or at least let it be modified by Nature's Guardian

hollow thorn
#

Druids are just worse Monks 🤷

#

Only thing it has over monks is roar

warm plinth
#

Yeah, which just isn't something you really need in M+

#

Obviously they have to tune for both raiding and M+ though, so that's gotta make it difficult.

ionic fern
#

Can't say that druids were that good in m+ in Legion either..but that was probably because every other tank could just selfsustain and roflstomp it.

main vault
#

Druids were only ok early

warm plinth
#

Yeah I mean, all tanks looked like shit next to the immortal DH and DK gods in Legion

main vault
#

And bad late

warm plinth
#

But druids were really terrible at the end

#

MoU removal was the beginning of the end

#

imo

hollow thorn
#

I dont see Bear druid being viable in M+ unless they got some huge changes in utility

#

They have nothing compared to the other good tanks

warm plinth
#

Yeah the problem is they really don't bring anything to the table

sick sentinel
#

Ursols was soooooo good though lol

warm plinth
#

Yeah Ursols was broken, but I think removing it entirely was a tad overkill.

stone crag
#

it was definitely a knee jerk reaction to remove it

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

main vault
#

We bring a mass grip now

#

So thats nice

warm plinth
#

Yeah you do have ursol's vortex which is huge

ionic fern
#

I mean

#

Just get a resto druid.

warm plinth
#

Don't ruin fun Mwahi

ionic fern
#

😂

warm plinth
#

Let dreamers dream

sick sentinel
#

you can do some pretty big damage in raid

#

so long as you don't have to tank

#

and can stay in kitty 👀

ionic fern
#

7.2k overall as a resto druid in a dng. Hurrdurr

main vault
#

Can resto druids tank?

ionic fern
#

Can guardians tank?

main vault
#

In raids?

ionic fern
#

🤔

#

Hey, he said specifically "So long as you don't have to tank".

#

😄

main vault
#

Well what he is referring to is catweaving and you cant stay in kitty and do it

ionic fern
#

I know what he is refering to, i'm doing keys with a resto druid.

#

😒

sick sentinel
#

can you imagine being the dev pitching that

main vault
#

Different but ok

sick sentinel
#

'so ive got this idea, hear me out guys, i want druid tank to be good dps, but guys, get this, they cant tank while they do it'

main vault
#

I mean I have this argument with people all the time

#

They left the possibly in the game to do it

#

So if its possible, and better results, its only using the kit

#

If they didnt want it to be better they could stop it like they did in Legion

idle kindle
#

is the ghuun trinket good for tanking??

stone crag
#

no

lavish oracle
#

Is the blackout barrel targeting a tank a bug or is there something I can do to avoid it that I'm not doing?

ionic fern
#

Never had it go on me before..tho i haven't done a FH key this week yet .

distant crystal
#

i did a FH earlier today, never went on me 🤷

#

maybe a dps had aggro on that guy?

#

or maybe all ranged dps and nobody else in range?

ionic fern
#

It goes on a random player regardless of range.

#

But pretty sure it going on a tank is a bug.

sly thicket
#

Why did they nerf spell reflect on malignant growth? Was it some kind of exploit (im not a prot warrior and we never had the option for one on ghuun)

hollow thorn
#

It was doing 600k dmg per spell reflect

vivid needle
#

Lul

sly thicket
#

was it actually worth it to bring a prot?

hollow thorn
#

Why wouldnt it be worth a prot to Ghuun, any tank is viable

sly thicket
#

i meant more like, was this a big deal and people were switching from their main to use it

warm plinth
#

He's asking if it was worth bringing a prot just to spell reflect the shit

#

If you were having a lot of close wipes I guess maybe it was worth it? It was approximately 2% of his health on mythic if you did it right.

sly thicket
#

alright, ty for your answers

warm plinth
#

I think people were doing it more for the memes than anything though.

sick sentinel
#

people were having fun with it on farm

#

fun = insta hotfix

ionic fern
#

I mean

#

My friends guild ran 3 tanks on Ghuun progress to spell reflect that shit. 🤷

#

2.67m damage reflected

hollow thorn
#

Now thats a lot of dmg

nova gale
#

@lavish oracle it targets a non-tank, but if the targeted player blinks away from where it lands and you stand there instead, you will get barelled

sick sentinel
#

It's official

#

I told you boys

#

You didn't believe me

amber siren
#

?

#

It's posted on the patch notes

sick sentinel
#

She said it way before the patch notes were out

#

well it was 2 hours after our raid finished and it worked for me

#

guess it got patched in NA since it was late in EU

merry cave
#

Still such a dumb change given there's 2 weeks left of uldir

#

Quick wars are popular nerf it

sick sentinel
#

It's a necessary change

#

It's the only thing in the game that acted this way

merry cave
#

It only hurts the guilds still progging super last min

#

They sound of fixed it months ago or not at all

sick sentinel
#

Shrug

#

That's what happens when you draw attention to an exploit

vale anchor
#

Havent personally done ghuun on my warrior. Did the reflect just do alot of dmg or ... ?

junior igloo
#

Yes.
An average dps would do around 2M damage in Phase 3.
A prot warrior would do more than that with just SR, on top of your regular damage.

vale anchor
#

aah yea thats alot lol, cheers for clarifying

wise solstice
#

How many reflect casts could you get in phase 3?

sick sentinel
#

25s cd

wise solstice
#

And how many do you reflect each time?

sick sentinel
#

if you assume 2min 15s

#

5

#

uhh

#

you could reflect as many as you could stand in

#

so

#

sometimes 2-3 sometimes 5

#

which if growth does 180k a hit (it doesnt i think)

#

4.5mil dmg

#

this doesn't account for the timers of malignant growth though

#

this just assumes they're up every 25s when you want to SR, which I'm not sure about

wise solstice
#

150 per hit.

sick sentinel
#

3.75mil

ionic fern
#

@sick sentinel

sick sentinel
oblique garnet
#

Yeah i havent been doing alot of keys with my warrior

primal crypt
#

Spamming those easy dh keys

#

👀

hollow thorn
#

@sick sentinel Wait, wait, wait

#

Did u top overall dps?

#

And still time?

oblique garnet
#

primal crypt
#

16k

green pine
#

just prot things

#

lmao

hollow thorn
#

i smash dps as prot, but i dont really top, cus i play with good ppl 🤔

#

was fun doing almost 18k overall in 13 Waycrest

green pine
#

You did top

#

on your meter

sick sentinel
#

I am running 3x390BoM

hollow thorn
#

no DC monkaS

sick sentinel
#

With alch trinket and 385 knot

#

387 equipped

hollow thorn
#

this is what i run as prot

#

WTB better shield

sick sentinel
#

And we depleted a shrine 15 by 3 sec

oblique garnet
#

Oh youre playing on same realm as i am xD

sick sentinel
#

So I tailored my pulls so I had ava+trinket for every pull

topaz badger
#

so, does warr feel better now? I haven't played yet. do we feel the buffs more than the DC nerf?

oblique garnet
#

Yes

hollow thorn
#

much better

topaz badger
#

oh but we should still try to keep DC?

oblique garnet
#

Yes

topaz badger
#

cool 😃

primal crypt
#

Hmmm

#

Anyone here try pally tanking

oblique garnet
#

@ionic fern

ionic fern
#

Sup?

#

Oh, jeah - pally tanking

#

How can i be of service?

jagged bay
#

gz kage

primal crypt
#

@ionic fern what's your overall perspective to warrior tanking

#

Do they motigate as well as us?

ionic fern
#

PALADIN tanking i guess you ment.

primal crypt
#

Mitigate even

#

Yeah lol

#

Paladin vs warrior, sorry haven't finished my coffee yet

ionic fern
#

In general paladin feels like a more forgiving warrior in the sense that if you make a mistake you can recover from it by youself via LOTP/HOTP/LOA etc.

#

They are more spikier tho but imo they make up for it with the utility they bring.

#

Like poisons and shit isn't a problem for a paladin cause we can cleanse them ourselves. 🤷

#

But warrior is a lot more sturdier when played correctly and has access to CD's more often due to AM.
Also Warrior does more AoE damage compared to paladin who's big AoE hitter Avenger's Shield has a target cap. 😒

primal crypt
#

Oh yikes

#

Forgot AS only hits a certain amount

ionic fern
#

But it isn't too bad since in m+ situation you get enough procs of AS for it to not be noticable. 😄

primal crypt
#

Yeah

#

Meh, I'm not getting the warm and fuzzy

#

Just sticking with the warrior lol

ionic fern
#

:D:D

#

Just play multiple.:D

#

Paladins utility is just amazing in some dungeons. :')
KR comes to mind with all the immunities/offheals. 😄

primal crypt
#

Yeah

#

I could see that

ionic fern
#

I'm trying to keep up with Paladin/Warrior/BDK right now regarding gear.

primal crypt
#

My pally is super undergeared compared to my other two

#

Warr is like 388

#

Dk is at 382

sick sentinel
#

I only have 1 tank

primal crypt
#

Dont know if I want to try and do more and get the third

sick sentinel
#

:((

primal crypt
#

I mean, the pally is at like 360

ionic fern
#

Atm it's a decent time to gear anyways since it's a downtime between 2 raids

#

.:D

primal crypt
#

But man...not getting azerite makes it feel so bad

ionic fern
#

375 should be fairly easy and do-able with a couple of weekly 10's and then buying azerite gear.

sick sentinel
#

A Pala tank can solo all the interrupts of the third boss of shrine

ionic fern
#

And most on 2nd.

#

😂

sick sentinel
#

Yeah

primal crypt
#

Yeah, having constant interrupts is busted

ionic fern
#

But jeah, Shrine is a decent key for paladins as well just due to the plain interrupts.

#

You just have to be SUPER CAREFUL with AS since it bounces to 3rd dimension from time to time pulling random shit

primal crypt
#

Like vengeance dh glaive

ionic fern
#

Like the first boss in Shrine..when it charges to the left corner you can't AS since it will pull the windspeaker.

#

😒

primal crypt
#

That shit is so annoying

#

@ionic fern or the stairs in general

ionic fern
#

Jep. Tho i usually clear the stairs now.

primal crypt
#

Lel

#

I hate the stairs

#

People somehow always manage to pull that pack

ionic fern
#

Jeah, hence why i clear it..especially in pugs. 😂

primal crypt
#

Well that's enough paladin insight for me

#

I may touch it, I may not

#

Too busy leveling a hunter right now

dim blaze
#

How do you guys feel about the affixes this week? New tank I was able to tank 8/10 dungeons last week on 10 difficulty but not sure if im up for necrotic/sanguine

oblique garnet
#

Wait its necrotic sanguine next week?

sick sentinel
#

The first 15 shrine that I missed by 3.8sec I was fury with a prot pala tank

#

He died on first and second boss

ionic fern
#

How o.o

dim blaze
#

Oops

#

Grievous not necrotic

#

Fortified Sanguine Grievous

ionic fern
#

Anything starting with Fortified is annoying. Grievous just needs a lot of fish feasts and a decent healer.

#

Sanguine makes you want to kys on certain dungeons coughWMcough

oblique garnet
#

Fuck sanguine

dim blaze
#

I was having trouble pugging shrine last week due to the 2nd boss my group was missing a lot of interrupts and interrupting at wrong time. Easier week to get that dungeon done?

#

Tyrannical was annoying

ionic fern
#

You just need 2 melees in the grp and set up a interrupt order before pulling the boss.

#

Or a elemental shaman..iirc they have a 12s interupt also

Yup

Soldier 76 is gay??

Why the fuck

#

Does everything have to be lgbt

ionic fern
#

Call him..Soldier 69

primal crypt
#

Is there something wrong with being straight now??

#

Jesus

ionic fern
#

You are the majority (probably) meaning that what ever you feel/think is bad and you're opressing someone.

It's bad when your orientation is a meme

ember arrow
primal crypt

ember arrow
#

@primal crypt its a problem in korea too

#

the infestation is everywhere

primal crypt
#

Korea doesn't accept it

#

You gotta hide lgbt in korea

ember arrow
#

because korea got some balls and some national pride

#

unlike eu and us

oblique garnet
#

Finland hasnt embraced the lgbt yet atleast

ember arrow
#

swedistan did

oblique garnet
#

Well sweden as a country is lost cause anyways

#

Not because of that

primal crypt
#

It's only opening in the states because it's the new trend

oblique garnet
#

But because of multiple reasons

primal crypt
#

A new hashtag

ember arrow
#

there are more mosques built last 20 years than churches in last 100 years in europe

#

🤔

#

people should stop being inclusive and start having some pride for once, and dont worry about offending

But levko youre being racist

ember arrow

And offended them

oblique garnet

I wonder how the american tourists can handle visiting finnish lapland when the people here are by far the most racist people in the planet and actually dont really care if they offend someone🤔

oblique garnet
#

Its in the UK aswell

primal crypt
#

Thats what my wife says

ivory hedge
#

is running 3x bloodsport worth it?

oblique garnet
#

No

primal crypt
#

She says people get too butt hurt

ivory hedge
#

would 2 bloodsport+1 deafening be a better setup?

oblique garnet
#

Yes

#

But basically anything can beat bloodsport

primal crypt
#

Is bloodsport your only options??

#

Because it's better now than 8.0

#

But still would use dps traits over bloodsport imo

#

But I'm a dps mongo

oblique garnet
#

If you arent making the dps sweat youre not playing correctly

ionic fern
#

And here i am with my horrible traits

oblique garnet
#

20k fine everytime a dps loses to you in overall dps in m+

crystal creek
#

Hrm, I'd lose the first one, then go double or nothing.

primal crypt
#

On PURPOSE

#

:)

crystal creek
#

Get'm confident, yep.

ionic fern
#

I could swap one of the Azerite Veins for Heed my call but not sure how much it does overall. 🤔

primal crypt
#

Heed gives me about 1.8%

#

Sometimes more

#

It's pretty decent imo

ionic fern
#

I mean, gutripper has me questioning..does around 1-1.5% in m+ overall. 😒

#

Maybe should swap that for Overwhelming power also.

uneven mason
#

some of the DPS Traits IIRC, have reduced proc chances for tanks

gaunt dawn
#

gutripper is pretty pog

#

theres no tank rppm mods this xpac

#

(so far)

ionic fern
#

Idk, it feels lackluster atleast in m+.

gaunt dawn
#

it will do

#

but look at it on bosses

sick sentinel
#

quickly everyone go back to whinging about prot needing buffs

#

@gaunt dawn is here

gaunt dawn
#

🙈

primal crypt
#

Yeah gutripper is pretty low

#

Op is mo betta imo

#

Just overall

gaunt dawn
#

Heed is consistent, overwhelming is consistent, gutripper is high hp targets

#

thats how you view it

primal crypt
#

^

#

Mo fast

#

At typing

gaunt dawn
#

not on my phone today 😉

#

generally you wont notice much of an impact on the more consistent ones as neither trait will have a large impact on how long you can stay in

#

thats decided by your healer

#

(and yourself)

#

1 extra thunderclap does more than either trait

primal crypt
#

BoM

gaunt dawn
#

at any given proc scenario

primal crypt
#

Thats the only one that matters

#

Maybe some DC

#

but BoM

#

Mmmmmm

#

So much mastery

gaunt dawn
#

i wish i had any DC on my warrior

#

😢

sick sentinel
#

in 43 minutes my box will contain shoulders with DC

#

gaunt dawn
#

yes

#

primal crypt

No it wont lmao

#

Poor guy

sick sentinel

gaunt dawn

whats your pvp rating?

sick sentinel

pls dont say that

primal crypt

Pvp box still gives azerite??

gaunt dawn
#

no, of course it doesnt

#

🙄

primal crypt
#

Oh

#

Jebaited

#

@sick sentinel you....know?

#

Azerite

gaunt dawn
#

all those pvp players totally use M+ azerite from the vendor

sick sentinel
#

in 42 minutes I will report back with my success

gaunt dawn
#

cos you can totally buy pvp azerite

#

😉

primal crypt
#

Doesn't drop from box anymore

gaunt dawn
#

in b4 a new wave of pvp players has just started from that knowledge

primal crypt

Im just happy that pvp gives a free 390 BoM piece

Saved me a ton of trouble

"Yo we heard you didn't like having a random chance to get your best traits from a box, so we decided to give you no chance of getting your best traits, and instead give you a currency that will take you 9 months to buy a specific piece at the appropriate ilvl, but hey, at least its a goal to work for...except we didn't actually include an appropriate system to generate this currency, so its literally the same of no getting what you need, but now you have a new currency line"

lusty grotto

I just realised, I can get more dps from my middle traits

Yes nim it is

you're going to get more DPS from the vial I'd think

sand egret

did you get a sick TF?

uneven mason
#

Rezan is a nobrainer

primal crypt
#

Sick as af tf

lusty grotto
#

Hmm so those are increasing in ilvl or what

oblique garnet

strenght stat stick gives 600 or so mastery

primal crypt

Oh 600 mastery

That with 2xBoM

so what pieces are bis next raid from the raid that youre claiming?

lusty grotto

Yeah emblem is another emmisary one right?

I don't know about any BiS since I don't know how some of the BfD traits will work, but there's at least a good mix of the current traits in there, much mores so than Uldir.

The next tier allows 3xBoM 3xDC

#

I want it.

lusty grotto
#

3x BoM 3x DC isn't bis for raids though

#

For m+ yes

#

For raids, I doubt it

#

Especially for mythic pushing

primal crypt
#

I dont raid like that xD

cosmic cargo
#

BfI is more ST damage, no?

oblique garnet
#

Yes

primal crypt
#

I only raid to get m+ score*

lusty grotto
#

So the word BiS should be accompanied by the content type

cosmic cargo
#

and that set up is only bis for dps even in dungeons

signal plover
#

BiS has been pretty tricky to apply since Legion

primal crypt
#

Pure dps set up yes

lusty grotto
#

Yeah yamo but not everyone that come shere asking for bis sets is doing the same

cosmic cargo
#

you might do better to replace 2 of the DC for pushing

lusty grotto

I didn't say 3x3 was bis

I will say that 3x BoM and 3x DC will be absolutely bonkers aoe lol

oblique garnet

3x BoM with 1 DC 2x Bfi or 2x IF will probably be bis for every content

primal crypt
#

Ass would be chapped

From all that clapping
