@pastel wing in m+ you can stack them.
@supple path that's better yeah
@sick sentinel have you ever ran a race before? So you run a lap before the race cuz you should still win anyway?
u spend time killing reaping
ALso, what's this discussion about?
We already did
therefore by not killing reaping, u save time
@ionic fern first skip in tos
vs not skipping
I'm currently sitting at about 16% crit, 12% Haste (Base), 23% mast, and 16% Vers. Is there ever a time when you should swap some vers for Haste/Crit/Mastery? >_>
Home boy is tougher and better than all of us
^true
@sick sentinel those stats are wack honestly just re roll cuz idt you can fix it
Atrax our stat priority is Ilvl. Then assuming equal Ilvl go for haste, Vers, mastery, crit. They are pretty close overall
Your entire premesis, is that you believe you wont 2/3 ! Plus 15 ToS its worthless to do.
Your chances are simply lower without skipping it. Even should you skip and not 2/3 its beneficial if you have because your chances to time it are better. And or it's more time you can dedicate to anything else.
@pastel wing nah man. 3 BoM
So yeah people are going to disagree
Btw oddly enough on Monday I two chested a 15 temple
I don't even run ToS anymore
BY PURE COINCIDENCE we did a skip
So..what's the problem about ToS? o.o
We usually do 3 skips there..first thrash...thrash after 1st boss...and way down to last boss.
Never did that second skip
It's just one guy defending his opinion
There's no problem he feels like he is being called stupid or skme shit cuz hes defending piss poor logic
ya i dont do second skip either... maybe on teeming but not on normal weeks
Never did a second skip. Just at beginning andnjust at the end
Interesting I just skipped two mobs on the right after the first maze
To each their own. Maybe on higher keys i'll play it around but between 19-20 it's our route to go. 😄
Cuz if he skips at start he had another to skip
Has anyone else tried skipping the whole dungeon by just uninstalling wow?
@ionic fern what do u pull in place of second skip?
6 minutes each should give you close to 3
@opal peak I guess he pulls the whole bridge
So if you can do it %wise why not
I pull the whole bridge without tho
Because it depends if you’re skipping what you need to skip
I can lust every ten minutes too doesn’t make it smart
Ah ok u do that whole area by 3rd boss
Jeah, it's easy and can pull big.
I’ve literally never done them without it being accidental aggro lol
Yeah, that’s not bad.
Which is why he probably skips it
You can clear that in 2 pulls.
I can see it working tho
My general route is don’t do that shroud. Just walk past the fuckers on the right after first maze and then you only need the last guy on the last bridge.
We just have to use invis pots. Cause no rogue
Do u do that whole area in 1 pull? Like all 6 mobs?
Usually jeah. If it's a bit higher then we do 4-3-3
Cause we get a reaping there as well.
My whole reason for why I don't skip is because I see no benefit from saving time from skipping trash and reaping at the end
We understand that and think it’s dumb
It’s not that we don’t understand we just think it’s dumb af
So wait..where do you save time then @sick sentinel ?
He doesnt
Only at the end
Don't you go over %? 🤔
When I do keys I make sure to leave in the middle and make some coffee because I won’t two chest it anyway
Yo @heavy chasm eat my dick u sack of shit
Ofc he does. He does the final reaping...
Calm your pants guys.
@ionic fern yeah but he likes it
w/e. It's a game at the end of the day and if he wants to play it that way he can play it that way-
We don’t need to personally attack each other.
If ur going to talk, talk otherwise I don't need a shitheel
We tried a rational conversation
Lolololol
Calm down bois
Yea calling me dumb and small brain
And you literally just said not a 2 or 3 fuck it
Rational
Can I call this guy a cracker or still no?
So, stop talking about it to one another.
@heavy chasm I know lololol the entire convo changed
Anyway, I don't skip but the last because I know I'm going to still time
Unless shit happens
ANYWAY
anyway how about the march madness
We get 2 reapings on 2nd boss area.
That’s the key phrase imo “unless shit happens.”
Why not build in a buffer. I will try to save all the time I can. By reducing the amount of time I’m in the dungeon I reduce the amount of chances things can fuck up, as well as building a buffer Incase things do fuck up
One reaping on 3rd boss area and last reaping we skip due nuking mobs down equally with boss buff
Riki two minutes ago “stop talking to him”
Riki: keeps talking to him
Also the faster u time the more points it’s worth 😃
Oh, and one before the last skip.
@analog swift I meant if you can’t have a logical discussion without personal attacks
Because that’s what it devolved to by others
Yikes
💀💀
You were there for the conversation bud. Figured maybe a different approach might work. But was surprised the implications were understood
Considering the dead horse had to get beat, and no one can seem to resist responding... yourself included xD
anyone fancy sharing me his cancelaura macro for jaina ?
As an aside to the m+ conversation. Siege this week. Before first boss. Any suggestions for the 2 packs right before first boss any other strats other than kite the large mobs to narnia while the dps handle the other (or vice versus)
What cancelaura @fast kiln ? Bloodlust or the i want to die now one?
the suicide one
Well you basically add everything to it
@exotic spoke idk if they are different for Alli and horde but I just make sure to split dps evenly to deal with it
ye i know i just wanted to safe 2-3mins time
:p
since ill be on warr the first time on jaina
Alliance. There is one pretty large mob - just trying to figure it out with bolstering in a 20 this week
Ya not a big siege man but I imagine u just focus the big man until it’s more even then ape
@ionic fern the only difference between our routes is i skip the first pack and make up the % during last phase of last boss
Aoe
nvm u skip the krosks
@modern brook we do the same thing and we end at exactly 100%.
We pull both packs at the end with the buff.
yeah i didnt see that u skipped the tamer zone
Do you use shroud + potion or is shroud off CD by then for you generally
First = shroud, 2nd = potion.
i dig it
Definately stealing that @ionic fern
I think I like that specifically for this week to avoid bolstered marksman
I think I'm going to do it every week, cuz my monkeys tend to grab an extra mark pack or something
theres like nothing extra to pull in that dungeo
Sometimes theh get that pat tamer, and or dont wait for the cloud near bridge
And get extra shit
So just remove that altogether and profit
Always 1 second off on the bridge shroud tbh
fucking stupid pat bridge
on pugs
one of the things that absolutely boil my blood
on a couple of times i've simply tried to pull the 2 pack back
because apparently situational awareness turns off near that bridge lol
so i...
ran siege with my rogue
saw the alliance changes
So I just did another WM13, because I wanted to overcome the shitty I almost timed
I think dps in this one was way higher
because we got to golak tul with 5-6 minutes instead of 2 lol
uhhh... are you guys dropping to horde route every time on that?
on siege, kinda curious
One question though: how do you deal with the big matron witch just before tree boss on bolstering
skip her
Do you have a dps taunt the dogs and kill them away
how
it's right beside the boss
lol
yeah you can't skip her, shes like zul just cycle shit or have dps taunt little mobs off
cycle defensives etc
any way to avoid bolstering though
have dps taunt dogs off
or is it just not that worth it
I heard someone saying that the fire in the ground affects her
she will stay casting
aoe them down
generally
you want dps to focus her
so that if bolstering hits her, she will be low enough that it doesn't matter
these days, every dps has cleaving mechanics on their rotation unfortunately
hard to pull that off in a pug
that's standard for any big mob surrounded by little bolsterers
yeah well
if the pug wants to time
i have the DPS pull, they take the dogs back to the fountain and ill intercept the matron in front of the boss
they need to play around affixes correctly
agreed
right rhokzor has a good idea
a DH can easily off tank
the dogs
with darkness and blade dance
yup
I saw it on a few streams
pretty much
If u have a druid u can mass roots the dogs I believe and pull witch back
Easier would be to sap/blind or sap/imprison and pull back
And clap al the dogs at once
On the big witch?
my friend and i are discussing the bis trinktes for protecion.. what are your thoughts on those?
Vial, Rezan's, Gore Crusted, Opulence Trinket. Take your pick
@brisk kindle https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/protection-warrior-pve-tank-gear-best-in-slot is a pretty good guide to follow
vial, rezan, anchor, RAGE, diamond, butcher block, knot, and the mastery one from tortollans (but only if TF and good ilvl)
diamond is the top one defensively
By approximately 800 lightyears
Does vial beat knot for the same ilvl?
RAGE as in mekka trinket, not grong's
Yeah, I'd use Vial over Knot. Lines up better and str>crit for DPS.
the ones i've got is diamond laced ilvl 400, bwansamdi's bargain ilvl 400, rezan's eye ilvl 410, rage 400 knot 400 ea 390
dont use bwomsamdis
Rezan's+prism, or Rezan's+rage are what I'd use, depending on if you want the defensive trinket.
diamond rezans
disenchant bronwsamdi's tbh
It lines up better? Knot is just a minute cd isnt it?
Avatar has 45-50 sec CD if you play properly.
So Knot gets thrown out of whack pretty badly
knot is better for dps, but vial has the added benefit of defensiveness
not worth it
those 10 sec add up fast ina 30 min dungeon
Damn
you are holding your biggest dps cooldown for a trinket effect
Someone was testing holds vs non-holds and I'm pretty sure it was always better to hold it
Oh I thought he was talking about holding trinket for Ava
My bad
when you are saing vial... is that the alchemist stone?
No, Vial of Animated Blood
No, vial from underrot
ok
vial of animated blood
Holding trinket for Avatar is the right thing to do. Holding Avatar for anything is wrong.
It's more about spending your rage properly
guys prot war is nice leveling 110 to 120 ? or better a dps spec ? , and if i use leveling gear , i am not wastin damage cause helm / shoulder / chest i can use the azerite 280 ones
I just dump it in revenge and give my healer a challenge
[Bwonsamdi's Bargain] is shit right?
yes
is better to level up with dungeons ?
unless in a very specific scenario where you absolutely need an oh-shit cd like in super progression
fast ?
i have no idea, this isn't the leveling discord
I think islands is still the fastest way
if i had to guess, i'd say TW on its weeks, then exps
The best way to level is timewalking hands down
think so to unless you got multiple 120's boosting you throug dungeons with the guild banner
Or freehold carries
Yeah, or that
if you want to grind rep, questing is the best way though
Didnt they patch that tw exp pot stack?
you get free rep clearing all quests
TW is better without any pot stacking
^
Island boosting, TW or just straight cheating
With heirlooms+draught of ten lands, I was getting 440k per dungeon just for completion; you also get a ton of XP for the mob kills as well.
That's about 55-60% of a level
In the 110-120 range anyway
In a day u can get to 120 with tw
Yeah, it's super sexy
Oh that was without ring heirlooms btw because I'm not cool enough to have them 😦
I got the rings so I'm good
jesus ghash, herilooms are easy to come by
Stole first place from someone hehehe
plus you'll have them forever :p
Also how do those heirloom pieces from the dubloon vendor work
do holiday events, or island expeditions, they are sold on those vendors
Rings are extra bling and we arent pimps
there are certain slots... like heirloom rings that are only acquired by doing those stupid garrison naval missions though
@sick sentinel They work the same as the rest, EXCEPT, you have to buy them for each faction if you play on both.
Or Fishing
Yeah rings are from garrison naval missions or the stranglethorn contest
or fishing yeah the extravanganza
which i won 2 times, but then they decided to put the stupid heirloom there
Ouch
so that means i gotta win it again 😦
I can't do the fishing contest because I work on Sundays
do the naval missions :p
I only played WoD long enough to hit the level cap; I don't have a garrison at all really
What's from the arena? Trinket?
getting the whole garrison thing is easy
Oh man u missed the best part of wod
Facebooking on wow
Yes @warm plinth there are 2 one from dmf and one from stv
Gotcha
Thyme hasn't been SF in a long time
@undone sun 👋
lol
Mwahi is a good replacement though :+1:
has prot gotten better since the start of uldir? havnet played since
Awww. ❤
@fossil sparrow https://raider.io/mythic-plus-rankings/season-bfa-2/all/world/leaderboards-strict take a look
oh wow
Photoshop
Yea its pretty easy to change the colour of tank font tbh
Prot is gonna be nerfed to the ground and im gonna be a sad
only rerollers worry about that
ok? then reroll another class :p
🐻
nbd
The gearing process is cancer
its so easy now tho 😦
Otherwise i'd have all classes up to speed
proud non reroller here
then stop rerolling 🤷
and make your class work for you 😃
we have like 5 people in here a day with “just started this warrior 3 days ago, now at 410 lol. When should I use SB?”
^
thats uncomfortably true >.>
It hurts me
gearing has never been easier
I have been Prot War since I came back from a 5 year hiatus to WoD. No alts and no other spec.
My favorite is when rerollers ask what our stat priority is
and argue vehemently at "ilvl"
seriously, my paladin hit 120 a week ago and it's already 400
i say int is our main stat
it's spirit
hey hey
^ cant make good decisions without arcane intelect tbh
i need some tips to gearing my alliance rogue
Its just so tiresome
well swing speed > spirit > pvp power
I feel like if i have to go through this again i'll burn out
hey now, spirit was on valor set so it must be good right?
we survived season 1 as prot, we can survive season 3
no i mean gearing :p
i'm waiting for the nerfs, tbh.
not sure how these people are getting 400 ilvl within a week
poor nimchipadin still 385
it's REAL easy
they dont suck at getting gear
true
stack plate for M+
BoEs are not expensive
They might be getting fed more
oh fuck that im not gonna buy shit
just run +10s
Not rerolling is elitist, im not good enough to play a class that requires some consideration
i got 2 mill i need more for bronto mount
not buying anything, just make groups and stack plate lol
yeah if its your key just invite warriors/dks/pallies
that takes forever
i just ran all leather groups on my brm
youre not gonna time +15s with dks + war + holy
you dont need to
why are you doing 15+ to gear ?
which is why i said "run +10s"
wtf
whos gonna run +10 to have a "chance" to get an item
uhh
+15s is also a chance
Someone who’s gearing
literally WoW is a chance
timed 15 last week with 2 fury, 1 prot, 1 mage, 1 holy pala
+15 is 100% at laset one item
just git gud
this week is a bad meme tho
we're assuming you're a) trying to gear so that b) you're undergeared and if you're forming this comp you're c) probably pugging...in which case I pose that +15s are way inefficient vs 10s
yeah how the fuck am i gonna run 15s
esp if you stack plate
on my ally rogue
u literally stack plate so u can do not-15s
im 357 ilvl christ lol
did you not do TW?
my 118 druid is 403
i did
wtf are u doing nim
im 416 with a 400 weapon LOL
got a couple of thingies
i coulda ran with you on my hunter
tw is 360ish though
MM is funn
😃
365 + wf potential
my DH got dual 375 weapons outta that shit after just hitting 120
Yeah my DK has all non-azerite pieces right now too, using timewalking shit lol
yeah i had to replace a 365 non-azerite tw head lol
- Darkshore is a free 400 and then there's the WB. Stormguarde for lower level bands
then you got a mountain of emissaries
and those invasions
i did 1 invasion
invade harder
Inb4 you only get drops in one slot
raise your Luck stat
rofl i didnt ditch you
watduhek
👀
wait when was this
tuesday
its funny how i was out dpsing 390 people in LFR though
everyone was raiding tuesday bull!
👀
i was like... hold on these people must have lower ilvl
check details
"wat"
im just pressing 4 keys
its all thanks to you though bull
press bladefury, wait for crit/GM and go to town
bte when RP for maximum luls
nah you taught me how to outlaw
I think I will never get rezan
i dont have it either
warriors; yeah
i destroyed my 370 one
probs never getting another one
but im honestly not farming for it
not worth my time
I don't farm but keep an eye for 10s with good io leaders
But I just had a shitty experience
leader was carrying his pal
elemental shaman doing 8k dps
or less
its ok
and pulling stuff we skip
you can carry them as prot 😃
not when they aggro stuff they are not meant to
I need to get these +10 dungeons done on my warriir
So burnt out from tanking, I need like 3 more for my aotc m+
that's why you gotta get tank alts! I actually get bored dpsing
I tried to play Fury the other day and i'm pretty sure I died in a pull cuz I dozed off
I do get burnt out sometimes from tanking pugs
i found that playing different tank styles help, if you main a high BPM class like prot warrior try a class like brewmaster or guardian druid
just be careful with druid
yuck
druid monkaS
I play only prot war, feral druid or bm hunter
It's the 3 classes I've had since bc
Wdym careful with druid
Oh shit
It is
talking about negative perception warriro got in legion, proceeds to shit talk other tanks in that same boat 🤣
Reddit said so
it's also much easier to pilot than a prot warrior
can anybody explain me pls why is more usefull to use IP instead SB on myt+ packs? im checkin some logs and the "spam" of the skill is pretty awsome
A lot less punishing than warrior
@scarlet tinsel i never said they were bad, i have one geared myself, but compared to brew and blood you need to pan a bit more with your mitigation
@icy yarrow its not
@icy yarrow blocking is our way of dealing with damage, not "absorbing"
Are you sure they dont have LS up?
sure
And not really
SB uptime > IP Uptime
Bear is a lot more forgiving
im not talking about risky situations
Brew is the easiest to play imo
hes not talking to you
that's another conversaion @icy yarrow
my bad xD
read what we said to you
SB is active mitigation, you want that up when you're taking melees, and physical blockable damge
IP is just a damage buffer, the uptime isn't as important nor is it mutually exclusive to SB
i will try the eli5 approach: you can absorb 50% damage of a SET amount with IP
as soon as that set amount is gone, you're way more vulnerable
i mean you're not really invulnerable with it up
Wdym, just spam up 50% DR opop
while blocking, you can block a percent given by your block value for the time your SB or Last Stand is up
:^)
U cant die if theres a shield between u and threat - a new novel by prot war
Ip
fixed it thyme
50% damage reduction. IP too stronk
a thrilling sequel to "Icant die if i dont acknoweldge my pain" - a novella by prot war
just imagine when it was 90%
Btw. Is it me or does the bear discord channel feel useless @undone sun
ok ty for answers ^^
tofu!
they all sad in there 😦
Hey blade
haha just like bears amirite :^)
if you think ip is better for mitigating damage, you simply do not understand the concepts of damage reduction or our toolkit, if you need some clarification we can provide it but it should be explained in the icy veins guide @icy yarrow
There's like 6 bears
I got 3x twisted claws at 415
Bearly enough for a pack (
Wicked powerful
I just saw the comment of grouping bears in the "low" bpm category
and i'm like
where the heck did you find the spare GCDs
wtb
i mean that's pretty subjective right, it fills it's uses for a class discord should
questions get answered
Iunno. Maybe its because whenever I look at it there isnt much discussion
They die
I mean, we had plenty of discussion before fotm
it's nature, each major patch it cycles
ehhhhh
they just eating a lot of membie berries in there
thats stretching it
most of the 8.0 discussion was wouldnt it be cool if we had 2 shields?
"and neither of them can block rocks hurr hurr"
question
answer
comment about "remember when we were X"
hey if we get nerfed, at least the rerollers will be gone 😉
Wdym
tofu can go back to maining war
war is only bad because it doesnt have any utility
Lmao
and spamming about shadowmeld
You know
When we get nerfed nim
@lusty grotto i hav some 95+ % on mitigations and selfs sustain, i just asked who ppl can do kind of things on high myt+ from a raider perspective but ty for all the clarifications ;D
hey man we had some fun times 😛
channel wasn't really dead in 8.0 imho
*how
I'm no longer NE
DORF?!
Yea
Welcome to the good life.
Dark Iron Dwarf atm
Master race
don't get me wrong, i enjoyed it here for legion. when warr wasn't ever percieved to be fotm but also not trash
eyyyy
im not even gonna chase that one
In all honesty about 80% of the channel that I remember was reassuring people that no, just because we're worse than monks in raids and DKs in m+ doesn't mean we're garbage and can't do the content.
it was simple
we were "worse" because of lack of utility
thats basically what every single discussion boiled down to
the remaining 20% was telling people "yes, deafening crash is that important. yes, drop taht many ilvls."
Hes not wrong
Warrior is viable
btw i have a new quote of the day
I'd next season is less aoe blast pound town shit it should level back out
guy says IP is better than SB
Yeah reaping not being a thing by itself will eat into our advantage.
kek
But people like their dps numbers
yeah reaping gave us a bigger platform to showcase our dps advantage
95 % mitigation and self sustain!
To flame dps for not doing enough reaping dps
just think, even when ip was 90% and absorbed a fuck ton, it still wasn't better than SB
There's overall dps and effective dps. Not to say we dont bring both. But it's a tad inflated with reaping
well, against a magic attack it is better....so he's not totally wrong
ya ya
that's no different from now though
but the situations where its pure magic are so little
i'm not saying it isnt, isn't the claim that IP is > SB
so yeah
at least that's what was quoted.
or was it someone saying that AND still thinking it was 90%?
otherwise it doesnt work :p
lol
Seeing one of those top warriors on that list you linked using +27 haste on their rings hurts on the inside.
that's a pretty advanced level of broke
im not broke, but im cheap
gotta wait for that 2k gold WQ pops up to pay for that shit
so i did 27 haste until like 3 weeks ago
Most of my gold at this point just comes from faction rewards yeah.
just upgraded too, so I gotta do 2 of those
i just don't nearly play as much so when I do it's just to walk into a key
so i don't really have a net positive income
37 stat is a scam tbh
I try to do the daily emissary + weekly island expeditions, gives me enough faction rewards to keep me gold-positive.
i challenge u to find a real world scenario where 20 stat makes a difference
i am casually leveling my alchemy on my druid so I can make some gold off that
An ability was almost back up but then the monster swung 0.1s before it came available
and that was bad.
literally unplayable
+27 haste on rings is simply not
viable
i want that on my tombstone
"Not viable"
🤷 27 haste = 30 gold
37 haste = 1.2k
yall bourgeoisie mother fuckers can spend ur fake currency like it matters
As an enchanter, I have seized the means of my own ring enchant production.
it was implied by the time
i see i see
I think I need to make my druid an enchanter so I can worry no more about pots/enchants
Until blizzard decides that enchanting is too confusing and only high level players really use it
Also I need to start making battle pots for pulls
briny barnacle is shit, no?
I use a vial of animated blood which is awesome
but also 10 ilvl lower
vial probably still better
nope
not really
barnacle is more dps
than vial
but vial's str provides defensiveness
Barnacle sees a lot of its damage come it's spread effect
So if u can place it on a high priority Target and kill it before it runs out it's really nice
Like for reaping
U know I'm curious now
What would happen if u have 3-4 of that fang trinket from ToS used all at the same time
For say reaping
uhh
isnt it a dps loss for most damage classes
i know fury hates it
i cant imagine it being sueful on unholy
Possible but I'm just curious if it's used in that specific scenario
Would it be overwhelming strong to clear reaping faster if u get 3 or 4
Or dogshit
I'll put money on dogshit
Most classes could probably use abilities that do more aoe damage than the trinket can
It's not good indeed.
question for tanking m+ is it eye and vial?
Yes and no
well i got shrine trinket at 395 but it just seems bad
Yes because they are good for mythic+, no because like nim said, options
vial is 385
If u don't like it, don't use shrine trinket
lets just say what is better for offensiveness
what are your options? rezan, vial and what else?
Idk the proc rate for shrine trinket so don't know
vial 385 eye 395 and 395 shrine trinket
yes barnacle
how good is jes'howler i heard it was good but only from one person
My guy
imo go rezan and vial
ok tyvm
Jes is good but super fucked with it's cd
jes is good defensive-wise, but no bueno offensive
And how it works can also lead to some people being greedy with it
and yes the 2 min cd kinda fucks it
well thank you for taking the time to answer my questions
Is 2 stacks of iron fortress completely useless?
No...
more block and more damage, ez
Wasnt sure if it didn't stack
all traits stack
@frail rover #268491842637660160
Does anyone have any experience editing weak auras? Just started tanking and I got this collection of weak auras and I wanted to make the demoralising shout aura glow when it's available to cast (I keep forgetting to cast it)
In the condition tab select the trigger that makes it pop up when its ready to cast, select true, and should just be a drop down box that has glow
I wonder if Reflective Plating might make a comeback when 8.2 hits and they have the traits on the neck 😮
can only hope
I just thought of that today; I'm slow.
no
Reflective Plating is the trait that made Spell Reflect reflect infinite spells
infinite reflects
And increased the magic damage reduction
Though I'd be fine with just the infinite reflects 😃
we had infinite reflects for a sec in bfa
on ghuun
we all know how that turned out
it worked fine all throughout legion
goon was just a buggy mess
¯_(ツ)_/¯
one was intended, the other was not
First time I see it, about time 😂
if they give us infinite reflects then they have to design around it
no they don't. just leave us broken and overpowered until the next content patch. it's the mmo go-to move.
I mean, what design? G'huun was the only one that was a huge problem but if SR had been like that still, they would have likely flagged it as unreflectable.
Like Thyme said, we had it literally all of Legion and it was fine.
And it was 50% magic damage reduction at that point too
It'd make my grand scheme to have an all prot warrior raid kill the first boss in BoD by stacking its own debuff on itself arbitrarily high easier.
I guess you'd only need 5 prot warriors at that point. Gross.
Biggest problems I can think of are things like extra reflects on first boss in underrot.
yeah, things like that are the only things they'd likely have to design around. And it wouldn't even be that difficult. For your example, just make it a deflect rather than a reflect
M+ is where our inevitable spell reflect nerf is gonna come from though.
Whats the consensus on Diamond-Laced Refracting Prism?
👍
I can see some bosses having to be changed slightly but we don't have as many broken reflects in dungeons as we did in Legion I don't think
Well, not bosses, but boss abilities. But those are just flags; easily implemented
not really
I got a 200k from one once
granted, it was lady+lord ( he had the damage buff) and I had 22 stacks
I got a 170k, 2 melees and a tick
You can have SR against things without them dealing damage though; we already have those.
And honestly I'm completely shocked that Cyclone Strike reflect hasn't been fixed; that's just stupid.
^^this tbh
In Legion we had Dark Slash, Chaotic Energies, Molten Crash, Arcane Missiles (which for a while worked on the debuff as well, which made boomkins and arcane mages insane), which did tons of damage and Blizzard was fine with it.
And I'm sure I'm forgetting some tbh
Yeah Medivh was truly the best one
I believe it even worked on parts of havoc damage too iirc
The arcane missiles debuff that is
hello brothers and sisters. its worth to race change to zandalari troll for the bwosamdi buff + Siphoning enchant for high m+?
siphoning is a meme
its?
Tried to find it on the guide sites but is it not worth getting 3xthunderclap trait for m+? I have 3 pieces at 415 with thunderclap trait on it
Yeah definitely not worth it just for that reason; siphoning is a meme and is only used by people lucky enough to already have a ton of leech on their gear.
@nimble solar It's not bad, but you gain no defensive bonus from the trait after the first one; only the extra damage. It's still a decent chunk of damage though.
Typically you would use something else like Iron Fortress for M+ for the mixed offensive/defensive bonuses.
A typical setup is DCx1 / BoM x3 / IF x2 for M+
Oh thank you very much for the answer! I Will go check what i have to dabble with
Sure 😃
2x dc would be better than 1 dc + 1 bloodsport right?
For damage, yeah. For survival, bloodsport would be better.
alright ty 😄
do you guys think kul tirans are great for prot. since they can barely heal, the healing from it gets more value?
plus the vers stats
as any racial passive, they're pretty minor ¯_(ツ)_/¯
they're -- a e s t h e t h i c c --
also haymaker as warrior, that's the class fantasy right there
you dont need additional stuns though
its just cool
I think the racial only made up like 2% any ways, there wont be a huge difference in races honestly
Haymaker is the shit. I don't even care how useful it is; it's fun.
Unless dark iron or BE for theirs
And even then they arent required and niche
fireblood too good
Yeah, it would be tough for me to want to change my warrior to a KT (he's a dwarf). Stoneform is too useful
Dwarf is the tauren of alliance
In what way?
In being the og tank race
Only thing I don't like about Tauren is that they're so damn slow. They look sick in plate though.
The only thing that makes me want to not be Tauren is having to be Draenei in the raid
I hate that i have to dismount for every thing because i get stuck on fucking every thing while mounted
when the coin of many faces turns me into another male draenei... i need suggestions for more appearances that persists through death
lul
I doubt there are many items that persist through death that are appearance changes.
Even the damn ship sail on the docks in zuldazar going to the captain to sail to kul tiris
lol
Have to dismount to get on the top level
After you were already inconvenienced having to fly 1/3 of the way across the zone just to get to the ship in the first place.
Just use the fox mount
Tauren on a fox 🤢
Bend over and kiss your add goodbye st high keys
Honestly, CC or try to have a dwarf / DH soak one to kee your stacks low
Mythic conclave - two or three tank it? I’m assuming if we three tank it I get to sit on paku and kill him last since he doesn’t hurt much!
That bleed remove is op af lol, is there any other prot war race worth playing even
No
racial suck
And for horde I’d say goblin
s
Which racial sucks?
Nah - full night elf group is huge for skips
Also, with necrotic
Assuming you have a full night elf group it’s really nice to be able to drop necrotic stacks without going anywhere
NE definitely doesn't suck. It's probably the best one. Do death skips without dying, remove necrotic, etc.
It’s like dwarf but better as it has more uses
It's not raging this week though 🤔
Bolstering I assume he means
Yeah, there is one downside to night elves though
it is on tourney realms
I couldn’t get on because of where I live 😦
time trials has raging/fort AD
That's fun
and it's hilarious how hard these packs are
I didn't mean that N/e sucked, I was actually replying to a question asked previously, I actually hate dwarves cosmetically and prefer them cosmetically. But dwarf is just too good for m+ and even raid
3 balance druids and a resto druid, go
15s right?
Soothe like a mofo
18s
Dwarves make conclave a joke for tanks
I gotcha Shield; sorry for the misunderstanding
Yeah what you got there is an ass whooping
Ditto shield
I personally never get a stack on conclave... though they tell me to go play with paku in the corner
i blocked a shield bash from the shieldbearer of zul and took 100k damage
Oof. What’s the gear like on tourney? What Ilvl I mean
415
it's all 415
I will live vicariously through you all. Stupid laws... stupid state
You live in the US and you weren't allowed?
Yup One or the five states it’s not allowed
Wow, what's the reasoning?
Lolwut
smh
Though I think that's why Shakib couldn't participate as well
Because it was against Canada's gambling laws
There is no free to enter option as you”must” have an active account
And tnpays out cash prizes
Yeah, that's unfortunate
I wonder if they could do a workaround by just making the TR technically accessible with the starter edition
rhode island?
Wow that's like the hugest ass pull when it comes to gambling rules
Yup oh well. Just means more time to push keys on live. Gotta get close to 2k this week
Maryland nimchip
Even though you'd have to pay a sub to be able to qualify
it has been like that since forever, and not just with wow...
in e-sports i mean
loot box games are also affected
Yup, it has. I couldn’t compete in arena realm either when I was pushing for glad
I just started running prot and im so conflicted on M+ traits.
That was back in fucking BC
its politics heh
Yes, and we now have casinos too
welp thats weird
But no “online” gambling lol
Have a solution already in mind....
Cause I know I won’t get cash prizes
But it’ll take time..... and money.... and moving
What are the other 4 states; do you know?
im pretty sure rhode island is one
i could be wrong though
Oh actually this post on Reddit talks about Quebec (where Shakib is from); apparently the reason he couldn't participate is that in order for Quebec to be included, Blizzard would have to pay Quebec 10% of the prize pool.
The really shitty part for him was that he wasn't actually in Quebec at the time; he was in the states at school lol
you guys ever get enough haste that thunderclap is 1.1s with avatar, so you pretty much just spam it? feelsgood
But he was still technically a resident of Quebec
Arizona, Connecticut, Maryland, North Dakota, and Vermont
No but that sounds super fun
For the United States
You don’t usually consider Missouri as having their shit together but in this instance they do
Lol, you're right about that
@potent anvil i love it when you get the haste buff in freehold and your clap just becomes 0.5 second cd
Or the haste buff with lust in temple
on live, i can hit like 120%+ haste with full procs without lust. i have a setup on tourney realm where i get like 150%~ lol
shield block lasts as long as its recharge too 
its actually quite insane. pretty much fury warrior levels of haste. and ST dps is actually really good.
weird i could have sworn rhode island was one of them
hi
oh hi catfriend
👋
yeah, seems so
that's gotta change
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i doubt theres any yellow people here who know more than you
no offence to the yellows
😄
shouldn't you be playing the game to be a yellow?
i don't
i guess i can forgive marok for not making you yellow yet then
Yeah for the relinquished gear
sure, the neck change is a step in the right direction
That'd be cool to bring back
but doesn't fix the elephant in the room that is terrible class deisng
i forget everything about wow, i forget what uldir is
did i play uldir???
is the worm uldir???
Well, I think relinquished trinkets are okay as long as there aren't mandatory ones like some of the ones in Legion
you did play uldir catfriend
the expac that's current anyway
No I mean like we don't really have trinkets right now that are so good that you HAVE to have them
But in Legion you had things like arcanocrystal and draught of souls that were just so broken that they were mandatory
i think he means
CoF on the other hand...
