but if you have already shieldblock up then you should also have IP rolling for damage smoothing
you can use rage for revenge if you wanna spread deep wounds on AoE scenarios ( it deals a substantial amount of damage) but that's about it
you can use IP when you are about to cap rage, even if your IP is capped
but at the scenario you can also use revenge to just throw rage away
i have bolster, so i should cast in sequence shield block charge and then last stand?
ah, ok so your rotation includes those CD
without waiting to use them as panic button
you use CDs rotationally, we do not have panic buttons
I personally use rallying cry as a panic button tbh
if you have enough haste or you know exactly what you are doing you can 4 SBs sometimes and shit
the third charge of SB will come in time?
so you will not have to use SW rotationally
the third will come in time after a very easy to reach breakpoint of haste
nice
and you want as much haste as possible
if you are tanking trash or stunnable mobs you can let your active mitigation drop and use shockwave
so you can wait 3 seconds
etc
so you can get more SB casts between coolies
yes i use it in rotation
have you a link for marok stream? i found someone but looking at clips it's not a war 😄
also,is DS to be use as much as possible in the rotation? i think i should pay attention at not be rage capped
you DS on cd
if you do you will get one every other avatar
you can IP and cast DS imidiatelly after
ok, so burn rage with IP if capped then DS
thank you /bow
sense is 'https://www.twitch.tv/snse'
and lala is 'https://www.twitch.tv/lala_senpai'
lala and sense are stormforged and marok is the icy veins author and also prot theory crafter
you should read icyveins btw
i did as always when approach a new class, but some doubts were still there :p
@sick sentinel yes it was.
Also put avatar off the gcd NOW.
REEEEE.
avatar will not be put off the GCD
if there is one ability that is on the GCD and it's possible for it to get out the GCD jail
is DS
CDs should not be on the gcd.
Fuck minigames, they are only fun when I get to IWINbuttons!
Satanic screaming
But on a serious note, fuck the gcd change.
I can understand the reason why they want offensive CDs on GCD
but like
why is demo shout and rallying cry in there
The reason is utterly retarded.
And that has been a thing since for as long as I can remember, and never was a problem except now.
Also doesn’t explain why some mobility skills are on the gcd
(Or where)
I think more spells will get removed from the GCD soon
Rallying cry is a raid cooldown and demo is the better pick as an offensive cooldown
it's only an offensive with a talent
Y’know it’s fine to admit blizzard makes mistakes.
Gcd’ing a bunch of CDs is one of them specially for a PvP “one shot macro” which has existed in some form since vanilla because of how wildly unbalanced PvP in MMOs is and how horrid blizzard is at actual balance.
Maybe Demo shout is on the GCD because of Booming Voice.
Light of the Protector is also on the GCD. Understandable that "big" personal heals on tanks are on the GCD, like Victory Rush/Impending Victory is. Fiery Brand being on GCD is questionable considering DHs don't have any defensive cooldowns so just stupid to put a defensive cooldown on the GCD. But it also becomes an "offensive" cooldown with Charred Flesh talent which makes it similar to Demo Shout
Fiery brand is also pretty bad since it is ONLY ST (and takes a non insignificant amount of time and a talent to spread) and VDH has only 2 CDs (meta at 5m and brand at 1m).
(LoP on the gcd also feels p. Bad)
just put everything off gcd :—)
Cpm=as fast as you can press buttons
Hey. I dont know much about protection warriors, but the thing ive been wondering the most is: When do you use Siphoning? and when do you quick navigation?
You always use Quick Navigation.
UNLESS YOU'RE JETTOM*
wait, who is it that we ping on leech questions?
@ionic fern
dont.
that guy

cough
Who
Just see that some of high end m+ prot warriors run with siphoning - and ive been wondering why
@nimchip ?
high end m+ warriors can do what they want, they have a full group of great players
dont try to emulate them
@warped hound basically its somewhat of a meme but the reality is that leech at very high end thresholds can potentially start producing more relative value as the ratio of dps to max hp moves towards the former.
howerver that threshold is for mega pulls + reaping where you’re hitting absurd numbers. even then, Quick Nav is still solid so its a really pretty clear for the better overall choice
aaah okay, i had maybe guessed it was because of the amount of dmg you could pump as prot warrior. but ill stick with quick navi then 😃 thanks alot for all your answers !
it is , in the sense that the damage potential makes it more valuable. but thats in a scenario of high keys where they’re actually doing to it leverage healer dps more in their group, as leech essentially can save a gcd or so of heals at those levels.
aaah yeah makes alot of sense
thanks alot! i really appreciate that you took the time to explain instead of just saying "Quick navi is better". As I prefer knowing why X is better 😛
question. if you have Bolster and use Last Stand, is shield block useful at all for crit blocks, or you're just wasting it while Last Stand is active? on Jaina mythic for example
The only thing shieldblock does during last stand is make your shield slam hit a tad harder
if last stand is up shield block does nothing defensively
You can Crit block with LS as well.
gotcha
Got jebaited. Rezans dropped with the arrows pointing up as if upgraded. "avoidance"
Thinking about getting an alt
Brew will prob eat big dick nerf
So, guardian or DK?
Wut
A nerf to brewmaster would require an entire overhaul to their system
And their DPS is poop
All this to say, you should alt brewmaster lo
Lol
they really wont
play pally tho
sleeper op
always comes out really strong in later tiers
downside is you can't be a bucket-drooling mouthbreather to be halfway decent at it
Pallys the only tank I haven't geared at 120. Might do that
Druid will be stronk
What makes you say that?
Oh nice. Might actually get to play mine
guardian changes are pretty yuge
are there new changes or are we discussing the release from 10 days ago
And a guardian buff like today
Any links i cant find
Bear changes are...questionable imho
that's a lot of rage lol. VDH is a lolwut moment, but does point to them doing this balancing more iteratively like they did in 8.0-8.1
frenzy is half my rage bar for it
oh nvm i read it wrong
so I hope these other rage changes compensate (i haven't actually hit the ptr)
Yeah
it's just a .6% max hp per rage
in addition to the HoT
up to 18%
the upfront part is cool
Do...are they going to fix the specs rage generation issues?
@soft kindle how real is bear?
but it's solid now and buffs be buffs so it'll be pretty good i imagine
Inb4 bear is sleeper op in 8.2
bear's still strong tbh
they do scale perty well late in expansions
they weren't shitcans in 8.0/8.1
yep, agil scaling + more traits went a long way
having an hp wall with two shield walls and pretty decent phys mit was never a bad thing
@sick sentinel , Is it worth pick a point in Reckless Flurry as Prot?
only for st memeing
Well I could get my thrid Iron Fortress
doesn't that fight do a lot of magic damage?
well one gives you more smeesh (and only that)....I'm not a fan of the RF builds
i respect the hustle
but not my cup of tea
Real pad boys use 3bom 1dc 2 tc
910 extra autoattack dmg
I dont have 3 bom 😦
i hae 1
0 TC, wtf is wrong with my gear 🤔
tc is only from bod so...
naw the real G is 3x BoM / 1x DC / 2x MS
ikr
Yahallo
Aye pandaren warriors rise up
Hey guys got a non-prot warrior question about mythic lockouts if anybody has a second
we were thinking of extending tonight. But we have a guild merger that might want to trial. I obviously don't want to trial them on hard core progress. I haven't got a confirmation yet (just spoke last night).
Can I extend the lockout on my brewmaster monk and if the guild wants to trial jsut reclear on my warrior and nobody else who previously cleared w/ my monk will be locked yeah?
yes
Trialing people on prog isnt a bad idea
right but it's a group of seven
Ooh
yeah
if it was one maybe two sure
@floral tinsel groovy and then I can just hang onto the lockout next week if i'm feeling it? that monk will obiously not be able to reclear
The "locks" are essentially reset for every character except for the character doing the lock. If you do it like you describe it then your brewmaster will be on a separate lockout than the reclear (warrior).... these two wont mixx.. so if you lock players to say your warrior recleair they cannot join the monk one before next week
Trialing people on hardcore progress is not a bad idea, because you can see how they perform on progress (assuming they havent killed the boss on taht difficulty before) and how well they adapt to strategies of the raid instead of just beeing forced into a strategy (witch happens on reclairs).
oh yeah I wouldn't have a problem trialiing people
I just dno't want to sit out seven of my raiders for a fight (there are also composition issues with 1/7 being a healer)
so i'd rather be able to trial a few on this boss a few on this boss etc.
what boss are you afraid of not reclairing though? Everything is easy to recleair besides Mekkatorque I would say... Oppulence might take a lot of pulls for a first kill, but subsecuent kills are not hard
okay.. yeah.. that sounds reasonable
honestly im not afraid of re clearing. May sound silly but we've been on opulence for a 170 pulls had guild disband rebuild etc. and knocked it. We were doing it as sort of a casual "now we get to take a week off from looking at opulence" sort of thing.
😂
hahahha yeah. I mean we can clear the first three in an hour
My guild is at jaina now, and we have started extending because reclairing Mekka is just painful
and we downed opulence (firstn ight raiding as a new guild) in less than two with two people subbing in for tanks (tanks dpsing) and two trials lololol
oh fuck yeah
how many pulls do you think jaina is?
no idea.. we are at 200-something and not even close to getting the whole raid alive into phase 3 😛
so 200 wipes plus however long phase 3 takes to learn.....
my guess would be 300-350?
Is M Crucible out yet?
At least not until tomorrow on EU
no idea about US, but I am guessing at some time today?
about an hour
for US
we had mekka down to 18% on our first night of real prog on him, consistently getting to phase 3 with only 1 or 2 deaths, this week barely make it to phase 2 😦
Some assistance so I can get a better understanding. For reaping on the keys I’ve been doing I’ve been having trouble rounding everything up. I can usually get the first ones that show up with a tc but if more show up while it’s on cd things get hairy. If I have avatar up I don’t usually have too much issue but working around the tc cd makes things a little hard. Mind you on 390 so I still have a ways to go with gear
Try to save avatar if reaping is right about to start
also, keep in mind the travel time for the bulk of mobs
I will also heroic leap to get a little more agrro on stuff while tc is on cd
So if u know the pack u have or about to pull will lead to reaping it's best to save avatar
sometimes you don't want to pop avatar right at the start of reap
you want to wait till the majority of things show up
Thanks for the advice
It's why the TC talent is useful since it gives 4 extra yards
Communicating with your group and having them semi stack on you can also help
seconding the cadence of mobs. Sometimes they are literally running half-way across the dungeon to get to you. That sometimes is like 5-8 seconds of waiting which is >20% of your total Avatar time lost
and don't be afraid to use rage on revenge for threat, the only thing threatening in reaping is the dot
Also start with a TC first when reaping starts so u can put TC on CD and when u activate Ava it comes off cd almost right away when more adds show up
so dumping rage in revenge is fine on reaping waves
Also LoS the reaping always if possible
LoS is the key
the casters are the real issue
everything else will run up in your shit
@gleaming obsidian As people have said... 1. TC talent, 2. try to save Avatar, 3. Use a bit of rage on Revenge is a decent way to build some aggro, 4. Rogues and hunters misdirecting to you. 5. In general reaping mobs are not scary to your party unless they have a lot on them or getting meleed by the big ones.. A good thing to do is just manually taunt the big one, do a heroic leap to build a little more AOE aggro as well as resetting taunt to tount another one
them ghost slingers just be chillin in the back
at least they nerfed the range of the damn casters in reaping
Also depending on the dungeon u can have the reaping wave happen where the last one took place
I.E. shrine before 2nd boss
life hack: shockwave a big group of casters then cast spell reflect to reflect multiple grave bolts at once
there's always some lone caster that fucks that plan
that ghost
That mothefucker right there
He keeps staring at me
I can see you motherfucker
Yet my range refuses to kick it
And instead stuns it somehow
that'll never get old
👌
Funny moment last night: Ran a key last night with my coworkers for our +10s and its during reaping and I'm picking up another mob, look away for a second. I'm now looking back at my char and on the ground...but since we're on the bridge in FH I'm curious and ask "hey, [DH friend], did you drop Darkne-"
you can guess what happened next.
"No"
"In that moment, he knew, he had fucked up."
Bladesong has died
gots to be more careful
on another note. 380 VDH in a +10 doing the pack before Vokaal this week was SPICY
Also which bridge, first or 2nd?
I wanna say the 2nd
^
but 4th
i don;t know why you'd get reaping on the first bridge
Yeah, that one
Ur right idk how you would
IDK why you'd fight anything on first bridge tbh
guys, i'm not gonna lie. i'm slightly excited for the GIANT FUCKING PULLS going on this week
yeah same tbh
uh
Fuck u it wasnt
i fucking hated it
We've def had shittier weeks
bursting makes 10 keys feel like 15s
With how hard Bursting hits and how untimely quake can come up fuck that week
and the other punishes way too hard for being too good at your job
Retarded dps*** makes 10 keys feel like 15s
If rather fucking have necro/grievous +, sanguine everyday of the week over last
like that the new affixes are baby shit get ur 20s in
i pushed my highest key ever this week, so i'm feeling really spicy about this week
I'd take death over bursting
I'd take bursting over sanguine
fuck sang
sang isnt fun
i agree to that
snot hard
grevious/tryannical is cancer
just isnt fun
At least sang u can deal with it
yeah
Bring a druid/monk or have a bdk
sang is high in annoyance factor but low in difficulty
IDK maybe im spoiled for haivng played rogue all last week
and is just infinitely worse depending on the layout
Bursting get fucked since some adds are like wet toliet paper
I screwed up big bursting pulls by asking aoe to slow down, but I was still clapping 100k dps .... 😦
bursting punishes a lot of specs
with a competent team its pretty close to no affix
Wasn't liked much
yeah....that's the worst
I can deal with bursting well on my feral since I can tank it with heals and SI
But god damnit
affixes that make me clap Less can ffuck off
Well, at least we got Raging and that ranged affix this week.....
The who affix
Raging and fuck my mage
time to meet a lot of shell-shocked pugs
the 2 best affixes
who are all gunshy after last week
Raging or as I like to call it
"LF 2.4k IO ffor a +5"
"Suddenly the turtle before shark man is a big threat without a druid"-ging.
U ever get hit by him during rage fort?
^
AA's chunk for like 30% through block
Jfc
yeah 100% scaling on that mofo is no fun
we're rage volcano tyr this week right?
i remember doing it on my brew last time it came around
my stagger bar was like
Empty
Empty
FULL
sound like a KR week or nah?
Depends
I need KR, Momload, and shrine for my 15 acheive
Does ur dps know how to kill gorbs on the 1st boss
i have a great route for shrine that only requires one rogue
LOL I dont know why im laughing at gorbs so much
THEY TOOK OUR GORBS!
Lol
random KR mobs
man I ran a supposed to be easy 12 siege last night with our top 2 raid DH's just for funsies
it was not fun
I really feel like KR trash is over hyped
double eyebeam brings all the bursting to the yard folks
how about them spotter packs
remember this
I think its bosses are so much harder
It's really just the start
Would rather do it on fort
is there a WA for tracking when the beserkers are going to cast their bleed?
It's the mini bosses and the room around the 1st people tend to hate/die most
it's a proximity based thing post jump
i'm pretty good about getting away before they, but having something that says hey, gtfo would be nice
Unfortunately I don't think so
They do their bleed on the closest target after they jump
And KR has 4 pressure points for pug killing
i always thought it was a frontal
they do 1 off the bat
you can bait that bleed with pets if you have a hunter/lock
1st boss, miniboss room, 3rd boss, zul
Don't they bleed first then jump then bleed again
everything else is pretty ez
yeah it's bleed > jump > bleed
I've never seen first bleed tbh
walk up to the doublepack
I don't because I stun
and you'll see it
I'll trust it, but just saying
their jump is on a timer
definitely bleed jump bleed
Trash in 1st room if ur DPS doesnt know how to kick
Also I jebait my dps if I can't stun
but thats only on fort
yeah while fort in KR hits super hard
so you can get them to jump if you don't provide a target initially
it doesn't really change the pulls that much
i want to know how the MDI people do the entire first room in one pull
whereas some dungeons you cna't double pull or w/e cuz of fort
^ You're basically never double pulling KR anyways
and the tank doesnt just die immediately
you wouldn't do that in KR anyway
It's not after jump
it also lines up lust really well
Like yeah bleeds need to be handled and kicks need to be on those deadly chills
Its every 7 second
Then it's timed very well to jumps then
you can lust first room, lust second room w/ reaping (during that overlap) can lust in the first pack on the bridge then lust on zul
Just stun it after 6 and soak with blur blade dance respose
dude a KR 15 last week "tank why are you dead" looks at four deathly chills going off
actually ya know what fucking IRKS me about KR
"Tank needs to not die"
there is always one dps "oh yeah I'll get the shadow bolt"
no
get in the kick rotation
-Demon hunter whos kick hasnt been used since the dungeon started
haha
then we'll kick or stun the volley
ez handle on that mob; tank gets volley, DPS kick chills
Spectral bolt and frostshock are poor design
that's just someoen being lazy who pretends to act like they're good
That's the FUCKING WORST
what are you guys talking about, kr is perfect, like it's either gonna be ok or fall apart 3 mins into the dungeon
easiet key to pug
^^ i mean that's true you know pretty much immediately
least amount of stress
but shit like the minions bursting is fucking retarded
Not true on Tyr man
wdym
u can get to 3rd boss with 25 minutes left and still burn the key in a pug
ofc its true on tyr
even then
on fort I double pul lthe first two packs and lust
we quickly know if people can handle kicks
First boss is a heal check for retards
you always double pull those lol
Trying to tank a mother lode at 385 and I die on almost every pull if there is more than 4 things in the pull. I can’t win 😦 I hope it was just the affixes cause learning tank in this week was fucked
i lust on fort
regardless of week/spec/comp
what level key @verbal river
It was a 8+ motherlode
nah u suck :^)
you get better mileage out of lust if you pull constructs in tbh
What's ur shield ilvl?
+8 ml comes with a +8 healer as well
motherlode has a ton of magic damage, could have been whats killing you
depending on healer competency you can probably be pushing 10s
^^^^
I just did a 10 motherlode it was the same haha
and if you know the routes etc.
But finished it in time
Also worth noting
Out of time*
Momload is probably our worst dungeon
i did +10 at 372 👶
You can do 20+ keys as 405
@modern brook really? I mean two last bosses sure
Its between mom KR and Shrine
but with double skip our TClap does so much damage
Technical a lot of us did+10 arohnd 370-85 when 8.1 came out
^^
Without double skip, the whole dungeon is ass; with it, last 2 bosses are really hard without knowing the spec
KR has the bleeds which are just really hard to deal with without gear
and Shrine is like 90% casting
I’m 385 and have like 240k health it’s pretty trash
yeah that's true
shrine is 100% dependant on group
that's why we have 5 "kicks"
But ur ilvl shield @verbal river
Tyr Mom is probably the hardest dungeon to tank when new to warrior but not to keys IMO
stun stun fear spell reflect interrupt
motherlode as well tbh
last couple of bosses require really disciplined rage use
Shrine and KR are what we call, the dungeon that keeps on giving
i like shrine now because I figured out how to skip 4th reaping
@analog swift shadow meld?
I like shrine because I know I will never time it
issameme
@modern brook nah bridge death
you can sheoud it too, it has a weird window where you're out of combat
basically kill all the bullshit in the first area, kill everything before the first boss (including the droplets to the side). Kill the windspeaker the pat there, the two big guys, shroud the 3 big guys and the runecarver, skip the ele. then pull everything but one pack of three before the third boss. pull the rest standard bullshit. kill one side of tentacles, kill boss, kll otherside tentacles jump off bridge
that fourth reaping 1) takes forever to get to you, 2) has lots of smashes
Guys it was a meme 😠
RIP
can i slap with a staff
let me me me
I will snap u in half
@ionic fern i made a fren
i was like yo bull is dumb ima be smart watch out
i will mutiny against you
Bull with his slapping memes
i think shrine is one of my favorite dungeons, it's legit challenging and with a good group it goes really well
makes you use your full toolkit
@brittle owl sup
I hate Shrine with a burning passion, as it incentivizes skips.
👋
(which I hate, on principle)
some are harder to do yeah(kr and temple)
but skipping minibosses in shrine isnt that hard
you're missing the point entirely then
👏
It's basically the fundamental flaws when blizzard decided to balance s dungeon on m+ and not being a Dungeons
gotta disagree @sand egret the timer incentiveises skips, not the trash composition
The trash composition just dictates where
like unless they remove the timer (ie the point of m+) skips wont stop being a thing
period
meh, miniboss issue might be solved by huge increase to %
not true
i get what you were saying now tho
Bull
i read somewhere in the mass ejaculation of 8.2 info that blizz doesn't think we kill enough trash in dungeons, and i just thought... "WHAT?!"
Regardless of what view u look at it, blizzard fucked up on too many aspects with dungeons this expac so far
i like shrine because it is a design iteration on dungeons to make them challenging from start to finish
instead of "pull everything and aoe it down"
they just went the oposite direction from legion
and a non-updating graveyard is stupid
Having to have several nerfs, changes up until now does not tell me it was designed well
i HATE that UR and shrine don't have updated death spawn points (shrine is too far in)
I mean Most of those nerfs were timer changes
Not really
that is jus tway too punishing on already tight timers
@fresh valley I think what they intended in their comment is to get people to engage with trash in dungeons (instead of skipping it outright). Bypassing the puzzle entirely is a fundamental problem
TD is a joke
kr was the only one that warranted the timer change
i hate running it cause i dont know the super fast skip everything till cannons route
and shrine
but that dungeon is so easy
TD is easier now because of cannons but that extra 3 mins is great
underrot is entirely dictated by how efficient you clear second boss room
UR Pugs just lose on tyr weeks
UR can kiss my ass
have never finished on on time
healers dont get tantrum
DPS dont get blood bolt
gg
Just do what I di
get ur 15 and never run it again?
there's like 4 mobs too many in that 2nd boss room imho
Kill 3rd boss then 2nd
@fresh valley @modern brook how are we talking about bad GY checkpointing and not talking about KR
esp those fucking ffixate assholes
well KR is terribad
Because KR has flight
So while the gravepoint is bad, it has at the end, and also flying
Shrine has the teleport, doesn’t make it decent
but yeah lack of checkpoint in UR is fucking awful
I really think KR gy update should be on 2nd boss, not 3rd
And you can mount in shrine
whynot just check point every boss
The difference bewteen shrine and KR is that KR is much closer
I mean both shrine and KR are insta depletes if u wipe anyways
(not talking about running back to where u died, but to get there)
Eh
On higher keys probably
same could be said for any key of difficulty worth discussing
but like if u wipe on Freehold
theres like a 65% chance its actually a time save
But KR ud be wiping either on 1st or 3rd or last bridgr
You can wipe in FH, ML, etc without a ton of punishment
Certain dungeons are more gracefully about GYs
But also with their timer/boss
Because fuck the 2nd boss in ML on tryn
Its such a long fucking fight
3rd boss is monkaGiga
At least it isn't an 18 year fight
Lol
Unluck
ya
Because I can only play for 30 minutes since I have a girlfriend and real life and only work for 4 hours 3* times a week
CoS is easy on heroic/normal
If only there was something blizzard could do to cater to me
last boss you ignore outright one of the mechanics
Like a peez dispenser for gear
If you work 4 hours 3 times a week how do you not have time
Or u a student
It's dah joke
loot as fury/arms and bonus roll as prot on last boss btw
Yeah, sal might see us
Sal's on DND

Let's be real, all the mods know prot is just burnt ground when it comes to the memes and not staying in topic for 3 seconds
Yeah i was thinking the same thing INR
i thought this was a discord for friends to chat about measuring epeens and yelling at plebs to look at pins
So, leech is viable?
@fresh valley I'll have u know we dont say
here
Yea
We take screenshots of the guide cause its significantly more passive aggressive
Who the person who just screenshots chat messages
We say go look at lepans guide for m+ quality prot warrior
its also not my fault Marok did too good of a job with the guide and noobs have shitty questions to pair with their illiteracy
@celest gate hi how are you :^)
I also love it when people that are under 1.5k score give mplus advice :)))
@sick sentinel thats me too :^)
I was talking about you lmao
Watch out guys
Kaege plz stop bullying me :^(
we have a badass over here
We got a badass over here
Lol
M+ is a joke, anyone can get 4k
@honest frigate 🤜
👀

@celest gate in 7.3.5 ?
4k damage
@sick sentinel I also disclaimer all of my advice:
Pls dont bully the bull
Bullyfango ^(
He's only 1.4k
wait am i?
U are now
p sure my warrior is sub 1k
Ayyyye
I have not played it this season lol
Sub 1k team is where it's at
nvm im a god
I havent tanked this season 🤷
at least nothing serious
thats like 10-11 in everything to get guildies their keys for the week
Do you raid?
not on my war
did through AoTC on my main; stopped raiding cause its boring to me and i already got the az i needed
Mythic first 4 are where the aze at
yeeeee
Some juicy traits
TBH have not been enjoying warrior lately
Hitting clap is fun
I'm going to attribute it to not having a consistent group for it; so i get really fucking awkward teams that make keys less than fun
^ same, been playing my feral ever since I got my 415's
like this one >.>
I never have a consistent rogue in my runs, makes shit awful
Pote??
Yeah potential
Invis pots are nice, but shroud is better.
Also rogue damage is usually giga
I'm a meta slave since my keys usually go better if there's at least 2 melee dps for interrupts
meta > playing what you enjoy
TBH yeah
Most people arent good enough at their off meta class to play it correctly
bring the class, not the player
yeah, I've played with so many DHs I know what their toolkit is and how it's used in BFA dungeons
otoh, what can feral druids do? no fing clue
Nothing really
feral druids can trick u into taking them cause u thought they were chickens
Lmao
ezpz :^)
i get sad when i get tricked by dps druids
but not mean enough to kick
i have pity
they try their hardest
Oof, I usually instantly remove
i mean, if its my key that i care about, i'm super selective
otherwise
you only need meta comps at like 20+
Meta comps cushion poor gameplay
i timed a 19 UR with ret pally s priest rogue
or if you're trying to 2 key shit
i'm just trying to 1 key
This week will be free af
MONGO PULLS BOYZ
how u gunna take a rogue and they say ur comp isnt meta
I've lived the off meta life dude
8.0 - Protwarrior / Disc/ Fire / Enhance /hunter
Real talk, how do you do 1st boss ur with ranged CD kicks
most of my keys are with an h priest
Just dont die 8head
Then wait .5 before I SR
Since I have had it happen where a dh or range kick with my SR up
Wasting a CD and damage
@celest gate U usually kick first add cast and SR 2nd because it follows threat table and its very likely first add cast is on your healer, not you
so the first kick is a buffer just to be safe
Yeah that's what I was doing to be safe bull
My assigned mongoloid dps missed first add kick ;(
loid DPS ruining keys, once again
In the end, not matter what
but, it was worth. Prob pulled an extra 1k dps on that boss by not kicking. Duh.
It is always ur fault
Also true

what people don't realize is that if you look VERY closely at
you can see a lone tear in its eye
Also use leech u tryhard
that is the true Prot feels
I haven't gotten a single piece of leech gear
#blessed
I've done quite a few keys ;-;
I'm all speed
Ok gonk gang
If you have 2 melee kicks, tank kick, and a ranged kick
Range kick gets Add in UR1st boss
3 melee kicks should be more than enough for every blood bolt on boss
Relying on other people
if ur range cant kick an add, kick him
Smh
🤷
Ew
more like Win Shear
So bring the class
bring the type, kinda
Melee or shaman
I once read in a non-ironic reddit post IDG why some abilities need to be kicked, and others need to be stunned, this inconsistency is just one of the few examples of horrible game design by blizzard
300 upvotes
paraphrased, but thats the jist
I think mobs recasting if stunned and others not is super inconsistent
cause they want some abilities to not be able to be stopped and actually do something
I figured u'd appreciate it blade
Here's the problem u can be an arm chair designer, but at least know wtf ur talking about
nobody liked the mass grip cc chain in legion
the issue with arm chair designers is that unless you've actually designed AND implemented something, you really don't understand how complex it really can be
/endrant
The one that really stands out to me is wicked frenzy in ur
@sand egret ur forgetting that acd's have shit ideas in the first place
Listen man
Just bring back lich King and more zombie dragons
Also make AV un-endable
I unironically think sylvanas is the best warcheif since thrall 🤷
bring on the hate
If it isn't saurfang or rexxar fuck all of them
Fuck thrall and fuck voljin I want that man for warchief
Let's be real
@celest gate so stuns vs interrupts are fundamentally different (outside of the lasting effects obv) is that one stalls the priority queue while the other bypasses parts of it.
Respectable
it's how you leverage the strength of one vs the other
I'm waiting for the dark ranger hero class 👀
I'm waiting for them to finish demon hunters
OOF
Honestly 8.2 demon hunter looks dope as hell
cause u can be in meta like ~70% of the time
Oof
actually hitting the knob
nvm
Last time we got into this ppl checked my io to call me out for being bad :^(
very important to realize how a team balances a PTR
U don't need to fix or finish a class when its over buffed
first you start with baselines
then you start with with casing abilities
see how that settlies
And then u release it live
I think the issues with Vdh are deper than numbers Fracture and SB are talents that are bis in every situation, and just replace the builder and spender respectively
then you hit more core knobs once you know how those other tunings played out
which is just dumb
Prot biggest changes were blocking actually blocking and IP
PPL in arguments
you don't start by throwing out the baby with bath water
I can block shit now
Oh dang
cuz then you have shit data to work with
if you dump all the changes at once, by turning all the knobs, you don't get to see relational development with the impact of each change
I get what you're saying blade; im just saying like prot was in an ok spot in 8.0 those small changes did a lot for us when combined with our scaling
so TLDR: next up is most likely SC
DH is God
I'll defer to your experience
which they're trying now
but my expereince with VDHs have never been positive both playing as and along side
in BFA*
I enjoyed VDH in legion
he did
He did a while ago I thikn
VDH is frustrating in hallways when you auto eat souls you wanted for bomb
yeah, it's part of the Pain-has-no-value-comparative-to-souls problem
Have you ever done the sewer section in tol
though maybe i do and just attribute it to soul generation mistakes
No i play good classes :^)
;(
Hard to go to Prot, which has like wonderful value in their resources
Oh btw
you're just like...."wow this bar means something"
Hunter bonus rolled uuna trinket
The tank one
And he couldn't trade because it was bonus roll
F
Yeah its on rogue loot table too
This tank trinket?
Sike bitch
Use mastery since y'all motherfuckers love dps so much for m+
damn, everyone is getting that trinket...
Are servers not up yet
i believe they're still down
I feel like blizzard is going to make a fuck hard season affix because of teeming
I'd be in favor of a hard season affix, tbh
depends on what they do to make it "hard"
i'm not familiar with that Bull
infested was "hard" and it pretty much killed mythic+ for everyone i know so..
oooh the DS mob?
qq, which slot is better to roll at the TR vendor, head or shoulders? looking for 3xBOM ideally
