oh i know! i'll unsub and refresh every time it expires

mortal brook
#

searing pitch big dmg tbh

spice ferry
#

blizz might think giving me 425 caches will keep me subbed

stark fox
#

Heed My Call or Azerite Globules for M+?

sand egret
#

Heed My Call or what?

mortal brook
#

HMC

sand egret
#

you only said one trait

stark fox
#

Unstable Flames vs Earthlink?

#

xD

#

Unstable?

sand egret
#

UF

mortal brook
#

UF good uptime

sand egret
#

UF is solid and in M+ any more crit adds to a higher and higher overall reduction against melee

#

hey guys how are you guys dealing with this weeks affixes? especially in pugs?

dense flame
#

if pugs, save shockwave/leap for kiting. # of stacks is dependent on your comfort level. For example if you are comfortable with 30 stacks stay in and pump till ~30 stacks

undone sun
#

kite as per usual

low wind
#

my main issue has been sanguine, pugs either wont help los on specific mobs, wont use their cc to interrupt casts etc...in 14/15 keys with supposed 1200-1600 IO people...

stone imp
#

Bring a monk and druid if you can. Stack the odds in your favor

#

Backpeddling early to anticipate when the sanguine is going to drop also can help

sick sentinel
#

stormbolt the mob that is going to die to move the others out of it pre-emptively

#

co-ordinate with your group for DH stuns/monk stuns/druid vortex

#

be careful with vortex though as it can backfire

stone imp
#

or they take typhoon

#

you coordinate typhoon and RoP

#

Mass entangle is useful all weeks, so it's a toss-up

#

Depends how skilled your group is, but typhoon is pretty safe this week

sick sentinel
#

resto druid can have both typhoon and vortex

stone imp
#

Yes, sorry, didn't mean to make it an or thing, should have said and

low wind
#

so stormbolt is worth taking

stone imp
#

Also balance druids, if they pop incarn too late will cause mobs to stand in sanguine forever

low wind
#

over rumbling earth

sick sentinel
#

you always go stormbolt

low wind
#

very welkl thgen

honest pelican
#

anyone have a good necrotic tracker addon?

neon tangle
#

@spice ferry I’ve gotten two 425s on my rogue so far

#

Both are itemized in the worst possible way

spice ferry
#

rip 😦

neon tangle
#

I don’t know how to take it

#

One of them was a 360 ilvl WQ trinket

#

Rolled to 425+speed

stark fox
#

The taunt swap in phase 1 of jaina, how many stacks is ideal to swap at for mythic?

orchid token
#

swap on avalanche instead of stacks

#

in p1

steep lily
#

make sure your stacks are gonna fall off before taunting tho

oblique garnet
#

Anyone else hyped to reroll into a monk for 8.2? : )

steep lily
#

are they making any spec better?

sand egret
#

3 fucking RNG TR rolls in a row....same damn piece which is the WORST of the options. Such rage.

west kayak
#

Rings : 420 Vers/Crit vs 410 Haste/Mast? I know armor is ilvl over all but what about rings?

sand egret
#

same thing. sockets is where you can start looking at extra ilvls

west kayak
#

Got it. Thanks.

sick sentinel
sand egret
#

more stats, sounds dumb but think of it like that. of similar ilvl then you wanna look for haste generally

sick sentinel
#

would you suggest the 415 or 405 3m cd belt?

sand egret
#

415

#

like above, take the ilvl

#

maybe don't scrap the belt, cuz situationally that proc could be useful

#

aka doing some prog stuff with your guild where you just gotta survive but keep barely getting popped

#

healers may appreciate the extra pad

sick sentinel
#

sadly this is an alt lol

#

so i dont tank enough for it to matter 😛

sand egret
#

damn alts higher than me.... 😒

willow scarab
#

@stark fox we taunt on avalanche but also on whenever stacks drop / around 8. It keeps damage low and if you know when to expect avalanche you can make sure your stacks are nice

lusty grotto
#

hmm

#

🤔

willow scarab
#

What dungeon and level

lusty grotto
#

17 ML

willow scarab
#

How much did the ele pay for the carry 🤪🤪

lusty grotto
#

idk those 2 were 1.8k shrug

#

monk was pissed

oblique garnet
#

🤔 ML

warm plinth
#

Why was the monk pissed?

willow scarab
#

Because everyone should be above 30k especially the ele

#

I assume

oblique garnet
#

Depends

#

If the tank kites away from earthquakes ele wont go over 30k

warm plinth
#

I mean if the outlaw rogue is decimating everything...and if earthquakes aren't making contact...and balance druids are pretty meh on AoE

#

Idk. It's not great obviously but I don't know that I'd get mad about it

half palm
#

theres going to be a lot of kiting in sanguine but communication of where youre going can help ele drop eq in the path the tank is going to go

warm plinth
#

But hey, that monk can be angry at whatever he wants! Monks are an angry people.

#

Just ask @open bluff

#

Could be they're just angry at pings that are for no reason though 😏 ❤

lusty grotto
#

i wasnt kiting away from earthquakes, i did doubles and depending on other packs triples with ele/treants

oblique garnet
#

Nvm that ele

willow scarab
#

Its a 17 fortified I’m sure the ele has time to damage and nim wasn’t kiting out of earthquakes

oblique garnet
#

he played with wrong traits

warm plinth
#

Then fuck those baddies

willow scarab
#

It is a bin ele for sure

oblique garnet
#

and talets

#

talents*

lusty grotto
#

its also not an ideal comp i guess, no DH for them and MW for us heh

#

i didnt have str pots 😦

oblique garnet
#

Mw boosts up eles damage

#

earthquake is physical

lusty grotto
#

oh

#

oh well

warm plinth
#

Did you time it?

lusty grotto
#

hell nah

#

cant remember but it was probably around 5 mins over

oblique garnet
#

Nim

#

EU when?

lusty grotto
#

lol

#

i ping 300 to OCE

#

id imagine i ping a shitload more to EU

#

routing to sea mexico the caribbean is grade A trash

warm plinth
#

Europe is a hell of a lot closer to PR than Australia though.

#

Like literally 50% as far

lusty grotto
#

yeah you're right

#

i totally forgot about the big ole pacific

warm plinth
#

I get 300-330 on OCE but only about 150-180 on EU

#

And 180 is playable

#

Even on a caster

lusty grotto
#

now im curious

#

let me see if i can ping a data center

timber nest
#

tfw your stuck using 3 holy priests for jaina prog tonight

warm plinth
#

what's your best attempt?

timber nest
#

weve seen the wall

lusty grotto
#

i guess france should be the closest one

warm plinth
#

I don't even know where the EU datacenters are. I guess I kinda assumed Britain ¯_(ツ)_/¯

lusty grotto
#

well im seeing france, germany, sweden and netherlands

willow scarab
#

Can’t one of your priests go disc at least

#

What’s the other healer?

lusty grotto
#

lmao request timed out

oblique garnet
#

you will get like 150 ping

warm plinth
#

These are their test IPs

lusty grotto
#

ya

#

just did it

#

170ms

warm plinth
#

Not bad at all

#

Easily playable

lusty grotto
#

yeah

sick sentinel
#

One of our officers plays with 200 ping

#

Because she likes eu times better

lusty grotto
#

must be a god

sick sentinel
#

Even though she studies in alaska

warm plinth
#

Once you get to low 200s it definitely is noticeable, but it's not really unplayable until like mid-high 200s

lusty grotto
#

holy fuck

#

goddess confirmed

steel mauve
#

played with a god tier enhance shaman in wrath from china on american servers, ping was usually 500-600

lusty grotto
#

now thats just insane

#

that's half a second of delay

warm plinth
#

It's actually not that far from Alaska to Europe, especially compared to Australia XD

oblique garnet
#

nim

#

think about it

#

EU has good tanks

#

What does NA have? : )

lusty grotto
#

lol

steel mauve
#

yep, and i couldnt even tell, dude was a psychic, predicted boss mechanics before they happened lol

warm plinth
#

It's actually about 1200km closer than PR is to Europe lol

oblique garnet
#

(Its a joke)

lusty grotto
#

are you going by EU though

#

id imagine alaska to west EU right?

sick sentinel
#

Is there a EU alliance tank to tank for my gf's hunter? Lmao

#

Her guild is alliance and she plays horde to spend time with me

lusty grotto
#

brah fucking alliance man

sick sentinel
#

And she says there are exactly 0 good alliance tanks

lusty grotto
#

jesus christ lmao the runs i did with my rogue today

oblique garnet
#

Mwahi is the only eu tank

#

i know

#

who plays alliance

undone sun
#

only tank ever

oblique garnet
#

exactly

warm plinth
#

I went by what google says is eu for both distances

oblique garnet
#

@lusty grotto Im sorry the prot dream is over im rerolling to brm

lusty grotto

oblique garnet
#

idk something about being able to do the rotation while watching tv at the same time

#

its just

#

too much to not have you know

sick sentinel
#

man, i don't feel like attempting any keys at all this week

oblique garnet
#

and i actually enjoyed playing brm skyhold

undone sun
#

who are you

lusty grotto
#

i like this week a lot more than last week

#

at least i can get healers sweating over something i can control

#

not random shenaniganz on grievous/tyrannical bosses lmao

oblique garnet
#

Thyme i dont know whats happened to me

sick sentinel
#

i'll take grevious over necrotic any day of the week

lusty grotto
#

perhaps you need to ESO with Griff, Late 😃

oblique garnet
#

Thats not happening

undone sun
#

unluck

lusty grotto
#

nods

sick sentinel
#

If you kite for both necro AND sanguine you run out of space

#

But if you facetank necro and just move sanguine you're fine

sand summit

Any specific number of haste we are looking for to get shield block to a lower number?

steel mauve
#

no

#

we dont have any form of caps, just as much as you can get with out saccing ilvl

sand summit
#

Okay thanks

sick sentinel
#

i do one 2k token, and then a war resource token myself, so i can save on either currency slightly

oblique garnet
#

@warm plinth I told you before the vods are not happening because nah jokes continued 8)

warm plinth
#

But I ❤ you

oblique garnet

#

@warm plinth You love what you cant have 😉

#

Hey guys.Wanna ask some question. I play BDK(412-1700io) and BrM (410). I do M+ and Mytric raiding aswell. Should i go Prot warrior for season 3. I just hate playin BDK in m+ rgiht now cant even hold aggro sometimes. I know prot gonna nerf in season 3 but dont think this nerf hit his #1 spot in M+.

sand egret
#

It's a very subjective question. If we're talking about should as in, "is it powerful enough to do the content", then yes. But all of those picks are. If it's about what's fun, well that's 100% personal. That being said, here in the Prot discord is bound to give you a biased opinion. Seeing as you're here though, chances are you are already thinking about it. In that case, yes we're going to still be big deeps and arguably bigger deeps factoring in the Essences as we see them currently on the PTR.

astral crystal
#

prot is dead, play bear

#

thank me later

spice ferry
#

you cant keep aggro?

sick sentinel
#

if you cant keep aggro gear sucks or not hitting the right buttons at right time

spice ferry
#

^

undone sun
#

gear disparity is more often than not a big contributor

#

but so is bad play

#

🤔

spice ferry
#

at 412 i doubt gear disparity is gunna be the issue

sick sentinel
#

reason you would want to roll a protwarr over other tanks is that they have the best defensives, but in order to compensate, they are reliant on the group for aid

honest canopy
#

cant hold aggro as BDK

#

Kappa

formal kayak
#

levels 11-13

#

I rolled a Prot Warrior because the Dark Iron heritage armor makes them look like a warhammer Ironbreaker ._.)

#

Quick question is it bad to use the trinket from CoS when tanking keys on non grevious weeks?

mortal brook
#

nah is still solid trinket

astral crystal
#

That’s the best reason imaginable, VL

sick sentinel
#

is it Dwarf or DI dwarf that are superior for M+

#

ik the differences are super minor but

#

both remove necrotic right?

#

ones just dps buff and the other DR?

undone sun
#

Both remove, yes

neon tangle
#

@sick sentinel the difference is small enough that I’d just choose what your like aesthetically

#

DID has nice other racials tho

#

Indoor run speed and the mole machine are both pretty nifty

sick sentinel
#

yah was looking at the crit vs run speed and phys dmg resist

#

guess ill go DI for the look haha

low wind
#

so i noticed that i might be doing something wrong or it could just be improper ccs

#

but i just did 16 fh, we passed it but i was just taking a lot of dmg, i had to run a lot even at low stacks of necrotic

#

like 15-20

#

im sitting at 15% crit, 20% haste, 28% mastery, 13% versa base without into the fray for haste active

#

411 ilvl

warm plinth
#

Are you new to warrior?

low wind
#

yeah this is my second week doing high keys, well not even second week, i normally druid/dk tanked before

#

maybe a week total of highish keys

#

as warrior

warm plinth
#

Well, typically the issue is poor play on the part of the warrior tbh. Do you have logs by chance?

low wind
#

nah i dont log m+

#

my typical spicy pull rotation is intercept in, i use avatar as im charging, demoralize as soon as i get in, then i ignore pain/shield block, shield slaim, then thunderclap and use a filler, thunderclap

oblique garnet
#

Whats your block uptime

#

you can see it from details

low wind
#

overall 42.3%

#

whole dungeon via buff uptime

#

maybe im prioritizing ignore pain too much over shield block?

oblique garnet
#

yes

#

are you covering the gaps in shield block with last stand?

low wind
#

ignore pain is 63.3%

#

only on spicy pulls

oblique garnet
#

you should do that always

#

when you run out of shield block charges

#

cover it with last stand

low wind
#

on almost every pull? or only big ones?

warm plinth
#

Last stand only has about a 1 min 15 sec CD with anger management. No reason to not always use it

oblique garnet
#

In almost every situation where you are actively tanking mobs

low wind
#

hmm alright

#

ty for input

oblique garnet
#

your sb recharge is what? 12 11 seconds?

#

So you basically get on pull 3x shieldblocks then last stand and then 3 shield blocks again

low wind
#

its been more of a rage thing

#

and i just always used ignore pain before shield block

#

i just need to get better at rage management

oblique garnet
#

Shield Block > Ignore pain

warm plinth
#

IP will break super fast whereas shield block blocks for 6 seconds no matter what

oblique garnet
#

unless your shield breaks

low wind
#

unless its a caster group

#

correct?

warm plinth
#

IP should supplement SB, not replace it unless the only damage you’re taking is unblockable

oblique garnet
#

i mean theres only few mobs which are casters

#

and even they are usually paired with melee mobs

#

so always keeping sb up while tanking is not a waste

warm plinth
#

Even casterheavy packs are typically still going to be mostly blockable damage

low wind
#

hmm ok

oblique garnet
#

this is assuming your group doesnt miss kicks

warm plinth
#

Right

#

But that’s a whole other problem hopefully

ionic fern
#

👋

warm plinth
#

This is why we need vods late

oblique garnet
#

What can you learn from my vods

warm plinth
#

How to die from explosives?

oblique garnet
warm plinth
#

Lolol

oblique garnet
#

I like how you failed to clip it first

warm plinth
#

Hey now. It was my first ever clip lol

ionic fern
#

@sick sentinel i'll tank for your girl, don't worry. 😄

oblique garnet
#

I like how i had the explosives weakaura telling me that theres still 2 left

#

but nobody in my group reacted XD

warm plinth
#

Yep they just gave up completely lol

oblique garnet
#

FeelsBadMan cant use elvui nameplates because the threat colors are still not working

warm plinth
#

Yeah :/

oblique garnet
#

my filters 😦

warm plinth
#

I actually didn’t realize clipping already saved the previous thirty seconds. So I went back thinking it was gonna record forward 30 seconds from where I was lol

oblique garnet
#

XD

#

Did we time the fh?

warm plinth
#

Uh. I think you did actually.

#

That was the only wipe iirc. The rest was pretty smooth.

oblique garnet
#

hmm maybe i should save the vod

#

idk if it would be helpful or nah

#

"This is not what you do on explosives"

warm plinth
#

Yeah it was 7 mins under timer

#

Oh shit I missed the TD. I only saw the FH and AD

oblique garnet
#

oh the td

#

was spicy

#

XD

#

was dpsing

#

@warm plinth you wont be learning anything from it XD

warm plinth
#

It's all good. I'll probably still watch it XD

oblique garnet
#

oh yeah it was entertaining tho

#

probably like one of the funniest runs ive had

warm plinth
#

I wish I knew lua so I could make better WAs lol

#

Making my own suite is hard when I can barely make template WAs 😂

oblique garnet
#

@warm plinth can you check if the vod is muted

warm plinth
#

On TD?

oblique garnet
#

ye

warm plinth
#

There is a pretty big chunk in the middle that's muted probably because of your music

oblique garnet
#

unlucky

#

gotta check what part it is

warm plinth
#

If you look on the vod, there's a red part on the bar at the bottom of the vid that I think is the muted section. It's not as big of a spot as I thought

#

It's like 4ish minutes

oblique garnet
#

yeah

ionic fern
#

Wait, Late's streaming?

warm plinth
#

Not anymore

ionic fern
#

😦

warm plinth
#

I nahed him into non-streaming

#

Well, Blade started it actually

oblique garnet
#

it was a rare bonding moment

ionic fern
#

Sounds adorable. 😄

warm plinth
#

Totes adorbs

oblique garnet
#

Pog the best part is not muted

ionic fern
#

Clips when

oblique garnet
#

i cant actually clip it its like 2-3 minutes worth of kkontent XDD

#

@warm plinth ok so right after the muted part ends theres some 👌 kkontent xD

warm plinth
#

Wow

#

That's worse than the explosive 😂

oblique garnet
#

That dungeon group is what happens when 3 healer mains go to one group where 2 play offrole and 1 guy has no idea about dungeon mechanics xD

warm plinth
#

rofl

#

Is the healer the one that doesn't know dungeon mechanics?

oblique garnet
#

Yes

warm plinth
#

Couldn't tell 😏

oblique garnet
#

Hes great healer in raids

#

Just

#

Clueless about dungeon mechanics since he just basically raidlogd

warm plinth
#

This shit is making me want to gear my ele though

oblique garnet
#

Ele is pretty fun

#

Not the best example from ele gameplay tho

warm plinth
#

Yeah I just leveled one. It's pretty fun. Just daunting thinking of gearing another toon.

oblique garnet
#

It takes like a day to gear

warm plinth
#

Yeah but you have to like...do shit

oblique garnet
#

?

#

Play the game?

warm plinth
#

Yes, that

oblique garnet
#

Cmon

ionic fern
#

Even i decided to level/gear another char. deswind

oblique garnet
#

Leveling characters 🤢

ionic fern
#

Yeah. :(
It's horrid.
It's 110 from Legion so i'll just get some Freehold boosts for gold and be on my way.

warm plinth
#

I have a Dh on both sides that I'm gearing, and then my warrior is coming along sort of

oblique garnet
#

I mean

#

Im not the one to talk

#

When i have every class at max XD

ionic fern
#

😂

warm plinth
#

tfw I have uh...11? And still need 2 classes to have all at max...

#

We won't talk about the 2nd DH or the 2nd monk 🙃

ionic fern
#

Iirc i got..Warr/Paladin/Druid/DK/Hunter/DH

#

😦

#

Oh, and rogue.

warm plinth
#

I need rogue (97) and lock (111) to have all at 120

#

Oh, and hunter is only 111 too I guess. 🤢

neon tangle
#

I have hunter/rogue/warr/monk/DK

#

I might try my hunter again but pet classes are kinda meh for big AoE solo stuff like leveling

honest canopy
#

Aha

#

Acutally got Lockjaw shoulders from the chest

#

Well, the TR roll

#

Have a hard time now

#

i can buy another 415 pice

#

EngiHead/Lockjaw/Divine Puri rn

#

Not getting BoM from headpice

onyx vessel
#

i managed to get rid of all mastery on my gear but neck wow

stiff bear
#

i just cant get more haste, never get pieces with alot of haste on decent ilvl 😦 so sitting on like 12% vers now anmd 12% haste.. 😦

onyx vessel
#

23.7% haste 19% crit 6% vers 18% mastery

#

lol

#

ahh shit thats as fury

#

17% crit 21% haste 8% vers 18% mastery

#

not horrible but it doesnt matter

stiff bear
#

ive got tons of vers mastery.. well usually not me that dies on the keys we do anyway but would be nice to get some more crit/haste

inland wasp
#

Trinket question... what is the weight i should give a normal Idol of Indiscriminate Consumption vs Vial if Animated Blood 410?

distant crystal
#

is that

#

390 idol?

onyx vessel
#

380

inland wasp
#

395 idol

distant crystal
#

oh i was thinking gift anyway

#

idol is nice if you think a healme button for aoe packs would be helpful

#

vial for the pumpin

inland wasp
#

keep both and use Idol if i feel the fight requires me a heal or lots of AoE?

onyx vessel
#

vial plus avatar tho

#

sounds like some fat deeps

distant crystal
#

ye

#

it is

onyx vessel
#

deeps > healing

warm plinth
#

You should never really require Idol frankly. It's not a bad trinket but you should be using Vial. What's your other trinket?

onyx vessel
#

you dying healer sucks

inland wasp
#

other trink is 415 alch

distant crystal
#

but i mean

#

it's always nice to have a "oh shit this healer sucks" trinket you can put on

warm plinth
#

Yeah, use Alc+Vial, hands down.

distant crystal
#

we can't always run with our dream team

stiff bear
#

ive used idol hc on fortified weeks on keys i know are higher than we used to. just to have the panic heal when its needed.. maybe the mitigation from other trinkets couldve been better though to beign with

onyx vessel
#

mines 390 howler and 375 diamond-laced

#

sad times

inland wasp
#

kk, should keep idol just for high keys and if my healers suck for raids?

distant crystal
#

so in raids

warm plinth
#

It's not worth using for raids usually because you're going to be hitting allies

onyx vessel
#

solo content

distant crystal
#

the heal isn't great unless you can use it in cleave moments

warm plinth
#

Whereas in M+ you have enemies to hit

stiff bear
#

i got vial diamond jes rezan gore crusted and idol on 400-410 xD having hard times choosing between all of them xD

inland wasp
#

kk thnx all 😄

onyx vessel
#

jes and rezans

#

ez

warm plinth
#

For M+ or raids Add?

distant crystal
#

diamond gore rezan

#

would prob be my rotation

stiff bear
#

m+ only, never tank raids

warm plinth
#

Rezan+gore pretty much always. Diamond and Idol aren't bad to have if you do actually need a defensive trinket (but you probably won't)

distant crystal
#

but getting a good on use statstick is clutch for the avatar pumpin

#

knot, vial, plunderbeard, spyglass

#

or wait is spyglass a proc i forget

warm plinth
#

Oh...pumpin. I read that as pumpkin the last time I read it. I was like that's a weird way to say it lol

distant crystal
#

lol

onyx vessel
#

smash tclap button

inland wasp
#

i always smach Tclap

warm plinth
#

Spyglass is on use but it's 2 min CD which is kinda meh

onyx vessel
#

make the other tanks be like blizz nerf this

warm plinth
#

Would much rather have a Knot or Vial for sure

onyx vessel
#

make dh grreat

Wdym. You use the trinket with leech

Bad 🐻

outer dew

420 galecallers on my bear and I'm a pumper

Whew

Wdym bad?

warm plinth

Who needs drums when you have your own personal lust

ionic fern

😂

outer dew
#

Tbh, if it didn't feel like I'd fall over every pull

#

My bear would be a dps machine

warm plinth
#

That's why Blizz gave you 18% bigger FR that costs 20 more rage 🙃

#

(that's still on the GCD because reasons)

outer dew
#

Tbh

#

That scaling rage cost is retarded

warm plinth
#

Yes, yes it is

distant crystal
#

I was thinkin about it

warm plinth
#

They were like here you go, have some more rage. Then give you a scaling rage cost that you can't control. Why not

outer dew
#

But then again, I told my guild I'm done with wow

#

(:

#

So now I dont have to log on bless

#

I'll be the next Thyme tbh

warm plinth
#

Trinkets like that make me wonder wtf Blizzard is thinking

outer dew
#

So

distant crystal
#

charge in without shield block -> avatar -> trinket -> clap clap clap

outer dew
#

How does that trinket work

ionic fern
#

Too bad you're never low enough to actually benefit from that trinket.

outer dew
#

I'd you were 50% health

ionic fern
#

🤷

distant crystal
#

that's why you gotta charge in without shieldblock

outer dew
#

Would it yolo give 50% haste

warm plinth
#

Now can you imagine if it was like...missing 20% HP = 20% haste buff?

distant crystal
#

keep the healer on its toes

outer dew
#

Thatd be a meme

warm plinth
#

Yeah exactly lul

#

I would turn my back to the mobs so fast

#

GIVE ME HASTE

distant crystal
#

it don't think it scales much at all but it actually gives p decent haste

#

even at 100%

outer dew
#

I would use that on a caster

#

Lol

#

Just tell the healer never to top me

#

All that fat haste

#

Bootleg STM for shadow priest

warm plinth

Let me sit at 10% hp bois

Hpal would delete the boss

warm plinth
#

For sure lol

outer dew
#

Hpal on last boss of shrine is a meme

#

I've killed myself 3 times to it

#

Because I forget light of the matyr heals a shitton more with the debuff

distant crystal
#

i love healing that boss

#

on disc priest

outer dew

my DH and my mage that I barely play got 420 and 425 last week tho

i think second trinket, wep and second ring aren't from raid

guys, I'm fairly new to tanking so sorry for moronic question

is thunderous blast a good trait or shitty trait?

sick sentinel

in general we wouldn't pick it up because most of our traits are better

oblique garnet

H4h44 410 merekthas with speed on warrior 😀🔫

ionic fern

It's in the same row with other better traits.

sick sentinel

last time it said gtfo

@ionic fern is literally the reason it exists

ionic fern
oblique garnet

I should just open my warriors chest first to not get my hopes up

ionic fern
#

Pick w/e sim you want to do and put your character region/realm/name in there and go ham.

#

But as always with tanks - it will ONLY SIM DPS not survival.

oblique garnet
#

I like TR because it allows you to test different builds like ptr but more in a live setting

#

So you can test out which works the best for survival and dps

honest canopy
#

Dont even know when i got an upgrade for my Warrior No2

sick sentinel
#

late isn't that literally the way we found out about crit?

#

I was stacking crit before that happened but I thought it was a meme

oblique garnet
#

Yeah it was

sick sentinel
#

or like I was losing surv for it

#

and then you knowledge came along and then I could stack crit guilt free

ionic fern
#

How much crit are you at now base?

sick sentinel
#

like 1k or so

#

I still gem and enchant haste

Nice, think i'm roughly the same. Spamming WM's to get that TF Gore. 😦

Yes.

warm plinth

tender steppe
#

i've got a 415 idol socket, 415 prism socket and 415 rezan's socket, thoughts on which combination for raids/m+?

#

im leaning towards idol rezans but idk

ionic fern
#

I'd take Prism/Rezan for m+.

tender steppe
#

prism > idol?

ionic fern
#

In m+ i'd say so.
Tho i do like Idol for some schenanigans but i'd still favour Prism over it.

honest canopy
#

I run Rezan and Block for raiding

#

got 415 prism but not dying (A)

ionic fern
#

There's not really many times where you actually gotta use it.
Chances are that when you drop low and want to use it you're already getting healed by your healer so one of the heals is going to be overheal regardless.

tender steppe
#

my thinking was that we dont have a self heal like paladins or dk's so idol gives you more control on your damage intake but you give a fair point too

honest canopy
#

Prism owns

#

Cus you know what

#

You wanna be TANK AF

#

Simmin myself fo the first time in a few months rn

#

well zee

#

🤔

ionic fern
#

Not bad. 🤷

ionic fern
#

@tender steppe we don't really need the heal since we're a proactive tank rather than a reactive. While Paladins do have a selfheal they also take more damage upfront and hence need something to recover with. Warriors don't really take that much damage unless you mess up your play or a cast goes through.

#

And in m+ you got a healer on your back anyways as i already mentioned so you'll be fine regardless.

#

But you can play with them both and see how you feel with them.

#

Maybe your healer is horrible and Idol is just better in your specific scenario. 🤷

honest canopy
#

If i found a way

#

to be happy everyday

ionic fern
#

But in general you'd still wanna stick with Diamond that brings you benefit in like 90% of the time over a on-use heal that you won't get full benefit out of in most cases due to healer panic healing when a tank's low.

tender steppe
#

fair, thanks for the feedback

is filthy transfusion worth picking over Iron Fort?

spring gate
#

What's the playstyle for warri in dungeons? For 395 ilvl I feel really squishy in a +12 dungeon, so I'm obviously doing something wrong. After 3 shield blocks, I use last stand, followed by 2 shield blocks, afterwards I have a downtime and take massiv damage or have to run. Is this normal or should I be a man and facetank till next shieldblock?

ionic fern
#

By that time the mobs should be dead.

mortal carbon
#

leech

#

damn boi

spring gate
#

And if they are still alive?

brisk ferry
#

get better dps, that's like 1minute20 right?

ionic fern
#

Even if you're chainpulling you should still have some time to recharge your shield blocks in between and get atleast one charge.

#

Remember that you also have Shield Wall.

spring gate
#

Or for the next pull, I don't have last stand, so I just use 3 sb

timid jay
#

Shields wall or anything else to cover

ionic fern
#

Don't overlap SB's/LS with eachother.

brisk ferry
#

and IP always helps too, don't forget to use it

ionic fern
#

Remember that you also have healer externals & CC on the mobs.

spring gate
#

So I should be more concentrated on sb and when to use it and don't overlap with other externals?

ionic fern
#

There's no point overlapping SB with anything else.
SB is a really REALLY strong defensive vs blockable damage.

#

So lets say you're out of SB charges & LS is on CD..you can then for example use Shield Wall while SB recharges and after Shield Wall falls off you can SB again etc.

#

Also you should have LS up pretty frequently in m+ with AM/BV

timid jay
#

A good rule of thumb for overlapping is that if you're still taking a lot of damage and your healer can't keep up then use more

#

Obviously don't overlap LS and SB since they do the same thing

ionic fern
#

Or if there's some other damage type other than blockable as well.

spring gate
#

I think this is my main problem, I treated SB like monks isb

timid jay
#

SB is very different

#

It's probably the thing that takes the longest to learn how to manage

#

There's no good rule for it, you have to play it by feel a lot of the time

#

Depends a lot on your healer and how much damage you're taking and if that damage is blockable or not

spring gate
#

So I'll hopefully learn by playing and focusing.
Thank you very much for clarification and advise.

how much haste do i want before the haste talent kicks in

#

into the fray

brisk ferry
#

all of it

elfin plume
#

give me a %

brisk ferry
#

790%

sick spindle
#

100%

elfin plume
#

idk what i expected from a class discord honestly

brisk ferry
#

ask a real question

#

the talent kicks in when you're near up to 5 things

#

you're asking for a haste cap?

#

we dont have one

elfin plume
#

it gives 25%

#

on DK, you want 15% - 20% haste before marrowrend haste

#

that is what i am asking

spice ferry
#

@sick sentinel it is bis for bdk

#

you do not want specific amounts of haste on dk

#

dk is purely ilvl>anything

brisk ferry
#

I dunno if there are any DK commons that are lurking, but isn't this Haste "target" a legion thing and no longer exists?

elfin plume
#

lol

brisk ferry
#

ok thanks Konrad

spice ferry
#

it is a complete legion thing

elfin plume
#

its still there

spice ferry
#

no it isnt

#

go to the dk discord

#

and ask

elfin plume
#

haste diminishing returns are higher than ever

#

lol

#

no

#

dk discord is the most brainlet of any class

brisk ferry
#

oh please do, they're even more aggressive than in here with this conversation

cinder pasture
#

They're brainlet for saying that its a legion thing ? 😛

brisk ferry
#

they're correct* that it's a Legion thing

elfin plume
#

no theyre brainlet in general

#

youre objectively wrong

#

but its to be expected
