haha see not as good as the guy who we jebaited with the FH key
I was 8 when classic came lmao
haha
And? XD
then pulled teh ol' switch
i was younger and i played it
I knew some 8-9 year olds back in the day. They were better players than I was.
hey pal, sorry we're doing 9 UR
i ran around like an idiot
leaves
and it was incredible
I was uh...17 when I started WoW
well tbh if they just gave me a spiderman toy i think it would make the same impact xd
cause i was 5
I think. 2006? No, I was 18 since it was like October
my father played wow so i did aswell
When classic was a thing
good times
I was 18 fucking years old, and the thing I loved about the game more than anything else (and proceeded to do it for like the first hour) is that I could jump.
whew
Because you couldn't jump in EQOA
hmm
Which was my previous MMO
you could jump in eq1 though
Tbh
i was happy there were no loading screens
EQ1 isn't EQOA
ya i know
I just played wc3 till Wrath
must be a console limitation
EQOA took place 500 years before EQPC; they hadn't learned how to jump yet ๐
too few buttons
Only played WoW because if wrath just for TFT
tbh i would like to see my action bars full of macros
But yeah I think it was just that they didn't have enough buttons
vanilla came out right when I got into college
good old macros
shit
had plenty of time to die miserably in the barrens
but i think i will play rogue tho
im officially older than blade
haha
we got our answers boys
๐
ancient xd
Old af
i never said I was that old
so im officially the oldest one
Wait how old were you when classic came out Nim?
Wdym
Oh, that makes me the oldest one then
Blade started college at 30
wait what
๐ฎ
Cant be just assuming age
Wait, am I doing math wrong? (probably)
hmm
Inb4 someone believes that's true
I think I'm doing math wrong.
well traditionally
Kind of a noob question here.. can someone explain snap spots? For instance someone mentioned the snap spots in AD for the Saurids. How do I learn more about this?
I was 15 when WoW came out I guess
i def know people that got in at 16
@olive merlin I'm assuming that term is used for spots where you can stand where they won't jump to you
@olive merlin you just play hear it from other people watch streams
but I'm not 100% on that
there is one on shrine where you tp adds on yourself aswell
actualy 2 places in shrine
Snap spots are the areas you can go like on ledges or braziers where mobs can't get to you, so the mobs teleport to you
one on WM aswell
wait no 2004 is actually my third year of college
Pseudo-mass grip
you will learn them as you go along
ahh yeah, so places to fuck their pathing to force the teleport function
Wow you are old af
fuck
What are you like 34? 35?
technically?
Classic is actually more fun then retail๐ช
those are the only 2 i know that snap you
Dis you guys know you can snap the third boss of UR and avoid the mushroom mechanic entirely?
@oblique garnet no ๐
hax
the short answer I believe is depedent on a) mob class and b) actual geo of the area
tbh it might be cause just around do quests idk
it has been more then half of my life i cant remember
fuck classic
I noticed all of the mobs in galvadst room in temple will teleport to you if you are on the stairs.
yeah some adds who cant cast on you on weird spots will tp to you
the easiest way is if mobs can't path to you directly
if they dont cast on tank then you can make someone else stand on that place so they dont jump on him
like the fountain at shrine
you can bait it with healers or ranged players
fountain at shrine or water at shrine
saurid place for AD or jugger bait on AD
they tp you cause mechanics
snapping is an anti-evade feature
they def still do evade
well if you use the spot make sure not to evade xd otherwise they probably reset which is big time lose
if you jump on the place stay there
particularly, snapping is more a thing in instances as things don't generally leash
since when you aggro you can't just run away and it fucks off
Very interesting.. need to find these spots
you wont need those spots if you are not doing dangerous keys tho
maybe after 18s it is good to know
some helps just a bit some is just a must for real high keys
like baiting jugg in AD is a must at some point
otherwise oneshot if it charges
I'm just 13-15 guy rn
well needs management while you can just ignore it
they're pretty much P4 exploits, imho.
technical exploits that aren't worth addressing
i dont like stuff that makes me feel like cheating tbh but little spots or tricks is fine
i just see them as stuff that you use small stuff
i mean the key is still hard as the way it is
if one spot made it %100 easier it would feel like exploit like big
for example temple exploit where you get the buff and come back with buff kill everything
it's a spectrum so ultimately a call was made down the line that the reward vs the effort x the number of instances was at such a ratio that it isn't something to address
I know classic is just running around doing quests
i mean shrine 4th reap takes a million years so snapping is a way to cut down time, not that you need it anymore anyway but still
it's kinda how you have to make those calls
yeah
But its more enjoyable than bfa right now
gross
yeah tbh to enjoy bfa you have to like m+ or raiding since nothing else to do
id rather play other games
and i like doing m+ sometimes chill sometimes push
What other games
if i didnt iwould quit insta
i just play single player games when i get bored
i started playing rage2
classic is actually an rpg, again. Not a themepark. Honestly, totally different games at this point that it's like trying to compare BFA to like League of Legends
i finished sekiro 2 weeks ago
yeah classic is a different game compared to retail
after cata game just changed so much
I dont have any single player games that arent completed
I only like m+ really anymore.. I play my prot war and bdk.. and unfortunately bdk just takes an ass whoopin compared to war .. which is shame cause I like him
and after that point it changed even more
and since legion game is really fast going from this fast back to classic will feel awkward
over 15 years, the game had to change
yeah
just one of those things that at the end of the road, it looks REAL different when you look back
cant blame blizzard imagine playing classic style wow for 15 years man
pulling 2 adds and dying cause you cant cast anything
my fav fucking thing is the article about "not-a-bug" stuff in classic
like....yeah....Taurens WERE bigger
that's just how it was
the game was built around role playing back then that was the big idea imo
right now its about being more enjoyable and more about game mechanics
having really interesting talents different items that had weird procs
but having some weird role playing stuff in retail would be so good aswell
specialy with items toys or mounts
but yeah bfa lacks content for this patch
if you play decent amount like 10-20 hours a week
eh, it's got plenty of content imho. I think it's just that people want more of the content they like. As was stated before, if you only play for M+ it'll seem that way no matter how many pet dungeons they make.
well i still do enjoy doing dailies if it is done well or farming mounts
people's opinons, while valid, often reflect their limited, biased perspective on the game
sometimes i wanted to world quests to farm argunites in legion and farmed mounts meanwhile so it made it look like it was worth my time
now its artifacts to farm wq or islands
islands are so much RNG to get pets tmog items or mounts
whats the point having %1 drop chance on mount if you have to do a 20 min long content
What do?
Raids, PvP, WQs, Dailies, Alts, Mounts, Mogs, Pet Battles, M+ etc.
there's lore stuff too, side-quests
island mog stuff
yada yada
@oblique garnet you have plown in more time then mlste of the players out there
So prob you wnjlyed it a lot
Not really
Yeah i do enjoy it
gear is from m+ and raid only bla bla bla
But right now im bored
Players forced players to get stuff to be accepted
it's also entirely possible....that you may have actually done all you want in the game
Pretty much waiting on next patch
getting bored of a game after playing it a lot is 100% totally natural and expected
artifact farm is no problem at this point and i think its good they did that
you can get 50 with next to no farm
getting stuff naturaly is better then grinding the shit out of content like we farmed MoS before nighthold
I'll tell you as a Dev myself, we very much expect players to quit after some point
MoS ๐ฆ๐
iif you think WoW is built around continuous play, you cray cray
or new seasons in fps games
it's the entire reason WoW is structured like it is
Yeah but i have so much freetime right now and i dont have a job or anything other
easy to drop, easy to get back in. Because instead of trying to compete with an increasingly growing market, they made it so they odn't have to
that's how you adapt over 15 years
tbh thats how mmos work more time you put more time game will require from you
Nah i like the guild im in
if you play 10 hours there will be stuff for you to do again
just logout when you want
Its not raiding daytime tho!
I finally got around to playing Dead Cells, love it. Grinded the shit outta that this weekend
Im not a person who can keep a sleeping schedule that allows me to daytime raid
didn't touch wow all weekend
Dead Cells on switch?
yeaaa
I was about to buy it
So disapointed with ffx
FFX was top 3 games for me. But it was pure nostalgia
if you're a maso-gamer you'll love it
Its so bad ๐ช
Maso gamer?
masochistic
then yeah
Quite maso game
Coolio
some mechanics allow you to have shit persist through death
Any other Nice indie games on The switch?
There is so many i cant really get an overview
Contra is ok
I like topview shooters more tho
cuphead is realy fun tbh
You know, f22 raptor etc
hard challenging and good art design
Might check cuphead out
Hard๐ค
ohhh yeah there's a few bullet-hells out there
Hows The sound?
Learning patterns
Soundtrack in cuphead is amazing
Indie games really need Nice sound to kick my balls
so it's got this amazing feel
well tbh i expected the game to be really easy cause its cuphead
Cool
And artstyle aswell
Super mario odyssey?
Yeah
She likes to play cappy
And il Mario
Got tierd of MK8, since we played it a lot on wii u
Have you gotten to 500 stars yet?
Naw. We just played it for The story to catch bowser.
Yeah you get 2 new planets
Just resently we started to finish The small stores in each world
One at 250 iirc and one at 500
Stories
They have actually difficult dungeons
Aha
i got the 500 stars
Won a Tetris game yet?
i finally 100% spider-man on the weekend
now i only got sekiro, RE2 and apex
done with ps4 games until last of us 2 comes out
and the FF7 remake which i know will disappoint me due to the battle system alone
The FFX remaster..
The game is so slow
Idk how i could fall in such love with this game
Ff7 was The first i played
i hated 8 and whatever came after 13
finished them too the lightning one and the 4 dudes one, but goddamn i hated them
Never manage to best it. Got stuck at Anima
im a completionist, so i did all of it
I figured i had skipped to much and was to low lvl
grinding wasn't hard in that game
ya
And very impatiente
Gg spelling
12 maybe
And Counter strike was The bomb
Then came wow
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
last cs i played was 1.7 when steam first came out
i havent felt the need to try CS:GO
1.6 no?
1.6 yeah
Tought so
but i played until 1.7
Didnt remmeber a 1.7
Aha there was one maybe
I tried csgo
Shit game
I was quite Pro in CS, or well... I won some swedish lans and such. Nothing fancy
500e was much back then tho
Lost intrest in CS when WoW and dota came into my life ๐
i havent touched dota2 in around 2 years
I love dota
Its actually quite decent
its still my favorite moba
I had a break for 1 year right when it came as well
i cant stand LoL or HotS
I only play that as moba
Same
Tried aprox 2 games lol
Maybe 15 HotS
Played this asian one tho, on switch and Android
So ez when you are used to dota. Stomping p2w noobs
@honest canopy I thought hots had a lot of potential
I'm not a fan of games where I feel like the gameplay is working around quirks in the game/engine
e.g. Counterstrike
do you like starcraft?
no real opinion, never played a ton of RTS anything
street fighter (and most fighting games...) tend to be more towards the "engine quirks" side of stuff
Deus Ex LAMS is my fav example
i'd argue almost every game has engine quirks ๐
like WoW!
I mean, it's bound to happen with any sufficiently old game, or a competitive enough of one
I guess it's subjective
I think part of it is the obvious-ness of it, and how important it is to the gameplay
and... whether it's considered a "bug" or just a thing people learn to use
soo, everthing Bethesda makes? ๐
e.g. I think last-hitting is a pretty weird mechanic, and it adds a lot of mechanical complexity to those games
that's not a bug
but it's also pretty non-obvious, and... I feel like it's leaning in to quirks in the engine
right, I know it's not a bug
how u gunna attack cs like this
then again, you have rocket jumping in Unreal which is also almost defining to that game
you mean to deal with Spirit lock-out?
right
we know lol
Bunnyhopping and rocket jumping take insane amounts of skills to do
it was born in quake
rocket jumping is fairly easy
combining it with bunny hopping is not
yeah true
what's up blood dk chan
Quake 1 had it
there were mods a while ago where speed was the key, quake had them
anything that messed with the cheap physics hacks
their goal was to train people to bunny hop, etc
I'm going to hard disagree with sadbox
bugs/engine quirks/etc defining gameplay is a good thing
the term bunny hop arose from CS
its the video game equivelent of kungfu
without it everyone's doing punch
and punch gets boring
but no we're doing spinning crane kicks
Strafe jumping and bunnyhopping are not the same
it was initially
zip zap zoop we have a game
they were born from the same thing
yeah
@modern brook I guess I prefer it when the complexity comes from what was designed rather than random luck in how they built it, but obviously both can be done horribly
intended complexity vs organic complexity
intended complexity is for nerds
the truth is that mechanical manipulation of the engine comes from playing the game at a different level
i.e. fighting games basically
im not saying its a superior level, just different
(which we did talk about)
like shield cancelling in smash
someone @ me at 630 est so i dont forget to show up to my ted talk
but then they became standard so
they were implemented in their respective iterations
@lusty grotto a big part of that is basically taking a version of something, and saying "this is what we use" and then everying hyper-optimizing for it
I can get people being into it
and thats why shield cancelling is a thing in smash ultimate
I'm not tho
a superior version of shield canceling
im sorry
i gotta start training in smash again
i gotta beat my rival
he mains link and bowser
puts real rage in my veins
gotta train that pikachu
Smash is overrated
lmao
which smash we talking
New one
yeah new ones pretty whatever
4 sucks
64 sucks
brawl sucks
melee is one of the best games ever made period
i like smash ultimate ๐ฆ
granted im not like good at it
but its fun i like smash
hmm
can we solo legion raids yet
i mean mythic of course
i haven't tried
maybe next patch?
I did Mythic ToV for what it's worth
hmm
so I'd imagine a few are.
interesting but there's nothing i don't have from ToV
iirc
unless there's a mount i dont know about
I think Emerald Nightmare can be done
can't do NH
i imagine there's a few bosses I cant recall that have mechanics you cant brute past with our current dps
mythic helya kinda has it
if you're not a dorf/DiD
yeah
you need to burst her to 60% before the taint or you're boned
although, I did it with the taint on me
it was close tho
Cant do dragons in EN
some fights also get kinda glitchy when you're the only target as well
dragons
yeah
i guess that'll be the iron reaver
though you can solo iron reaver, just need to pull a sonic
Asking cause i feel really squishy as a tank, even with ignore pain up. Do Tank trinkets (I am mainly playing fury) make a huge difference for prot?
If you feel squishy it's probably just play issues
trinkets/gear help, but it's pretty minor (you won't notice being 3% tankier) while play issues are very big
no, trinkets wont make a huge difference, not life or death
@mossy sundial I just want to make sure, you said "even with ignore pain up"
Are you keeping shield block up?
Trying
Might be me having the wrong stats/only being close to 400 but I have to choose far too often (atleast imo) between using shield block or ignore pain
guessing i should be banking rage instead of spending it when i can
sounds more like a rotation issue if you feel you have to choose
^^^^
Only spending rage on revenge if i am off-tanking and i am close to 100 rage
^
Don't think so, can look tho
it's almost 100% a rotation issue; i'm usually swimming in rage
i can rage starve in auto-pilot
lol
rage starving isn't really hard
esp if you're not use to intercepting on CD
also make sure you're cycling CDs to cover gaps in shield block coverage
@mossy sundial I think you're also looking at IP in the wrong way, you don't ever "choose" between them or try and keep both up, you -always*- want to keep SB up and IP serves as a rage dump/"extra" mitigation on top
*always: there are a few times where something isn't blockable, and you want to use IP instead, i.e. the last two bosses of ML
especially last stand; it's 15 seconds of 100% block with the bolster talent that's up about every minute, giving you plenty of time to recharge your stacks
I am using Last stand as a stand in for shield block. keeping shieldwall for high dmg or "oh shit" moments
You should be planning your shield walls just like your other abilities, if you go "oh shit" it's too late to use anything
Like the 2 things that i mostly use my shield block for are moments when a misstaunt from the other tank happens or my healer dies in m+
shield block or wall?
shield wall
Does Shield block actually have a pandemic effect?
Will do
don't forget that shield wall's CD is also reduced by anger management
and should be used pretty often
^
Is the armor weapon enchant worth taking?
no, use quick nav
Okay
also to add on to sadbox's AM point: the only "long" cd not reduced by anger management is rallying cry
meaning avatar is also affected, which is a huge source of rage gen with unstoppable force/TC
if you're having rage issues, one possible explanation is you're underutilizing avatar but again, that's hard to say for sure without logs
due to how me mitigate, there shouldn't really ever be "oh-shit" moments that aren't already planned for imho
we're not really the "oh-shit" tank, is what I really wanna say
^^^ @mossy sundial It was kinda implied, but warrior is 100% proactive mitigation, e.g. shield wall will only prevent damage you take in the future
which means if you do it as a reaction to your health dipping it's too late
same thing for IP, shield block, etc
to clarify, I'm very actively weaving my SW into my general flow.
giving my healer some breathing room to top the group, etc.
or pulling extra big when its up
Okay, thanks for the answers. Gonna try to implement them into my gameplay, gonna log as well to be able to provide more info if i am still running in place.
remember you can also log keys, people can still give you just as solid feedback on your rotation from m+
I can't stress enough the importance of forethought and proactivity in Warrior tanking
anyone know why mythic jaina some times spins to the raid and casts beam p1 if avalanche is going off? something tank can do differently?
it's the only tank spec that functions 100% proactively so anyone not familiar or (potentially even worse) a reroller may apply not-so-good habits to Prot
The only tanks i played on mass the last expansions were Blood DK and some vengeance DH during legion. Playing Prot because i wanted to play fury and i don't want to log onto my druid for every key.
Well BDK is like the 2nd farthest from the spec ๐
@north coral do you mean straight after avalanche she fires one off towards where rdps stack>?
yea she seems to turn to the rdps on the avalanche cast then queue up beam into them
if she's turned around when she finishes avalanche she can sometimes go straight into a beam and won't turn around before. I think if the tank who has ava goes to the side of the ship instead of near range it might not happen. fights retarded like that
What I've found is if both the tank with avalanche and the tank taunting for avalanche both stand on the opposite side of her to the ranged from pull until avalanche ends, including kiting that you will usually have the beam go where you want
But if you kite avalanche past where she is standing and move to ranged side and/or the other tank taunts before being on the opposite side to the ranged dps she consistently shoots at ranged
It's to do with the fact that she rotates whilst casting avalanche
yeah that's what i was trying to say but you've said it much better ๐
My guild use to tell me I was stupid for thinking on that level of play because "as if it works like that"
but like... it definitely does
dumb boss is dumb
if you just dont put yourself between her and rdps stack you should be okay
you could actually, long as you dont let avalanche finish when you are
sometimes she locks into her rotated position during avalanche and casts her blast straight after avalanche ends so you can't turn her around
The timings on it are so stupid
But get ready for the exact same thing when you get to Uu'nat because it's the same ๐
Wow...a fight that knocks rdps off their high horse, forces them to move at a moment's notice and expect to deal with the unexpected.
Almost like the fight's not supposed to be faceroll, huh?
Guys I'm sorry, I had to betray yall
I'm going to play BDO now and become number #5 BDO streamer mom
(For real though, yo the combat is fucking tight)
Eh, go for it, I don't blame you.
Played a Wizard a while back on bdo, visuals are just...gamer orgasmic inducing.
Who gives a fuck about the graphics, I'm playing wow, so long as it doesn't look like RuneScape I'll play ur trash
What are you talking about? Have you done Jaina?
Melee have half the job of ranged in p1
also if the tank does their job correctly then ranged dont need to move
rdps moving is caused by a tank misplay
in p1 anyway
I will always find it funny when melee get angry when u move the boss
I feel so bad for my melee on Uu'nat
I dont
We're ping ponging that boss all over the place
On topic
Void elf big power play for uunat
1% shadow damage reducation but more important you can skip beams
Ok troll 2.0
warrior transcendence
I really do wonder if they make some bs in roa that VE can port over if it will make then the troll 2.0/Gob 1.0
Because unlike cos, it's nothing note worthy since its filler raid
Where as roa is the main course next patch
Here's hoping so it justifies my aesthetic choice
What's the CD on it?
3 minutes
I hope u like it every 5
I'm thinking it will line up with the dicey eye beams
But we're only at 62% ish so time will tell
have to finesse it
It's such a weird thing that I'm shocked people haven't learned to abuse yet
Because I could imagine u could frame perfect Dodge's if it works sim to a blink
earthlink/shimmering haven?
It works exactly like a blink except that it's of course projected from you
so you can't just press it and dodge beam
It's a double tap yea
Still if u can Dodge's a beams damage then u can frame perfect a lot of other shit
The problem become how good are u at frame watchinf
I've been making it my mission to find uses for it because I wanna stay lookin' cute
When my adrenaline is going off and i've had a coffee i'm pretty good with my frames
I prefer racials that do something movement wise
VE active does have a lot of legs
always gonna be content where you gotta move A to B
๐
It's nice for big pulls like WCM hallway and shrine hallway after 1st boss
Look at that this man trying to set up style points
If u H.Leap from end of the hallway but casted ur tele right before is there a distance limiter or nah?
Because if I can just steal monks TP Ayo fuck nightelf and fuck the horde
like a poor man's Transcendece
I'm taking that because I WILL STYLE BEAST ON THESE TRASH
Sometimes it feels like there's a distance limit but maybe i'm just not pressing it fast enough
I want my SSSMOKING SEXY STYLE METER
You can definitely use it from outside the door and then heroic leap down the hallway thoguh
It's pretty much poor man trans
I don't give a fuck
I want to pop my tp mid air after casting TC at just the right frame before landing and pooping back where i was
You can't drop it in the air like you can with trans
if you use it in the air or on a cliff etc it goes along the ground
It's basically blink but way slower and with a visual of where you will end up.
So long as the distance for me to pop to be ported back isn't like 2 yards idgaf
Also the rift is only in place for like 10 seconds
And it goes on CD whether you port or not
That's literally more than what I woildnneed
Yo
I'm going ally guys
Fuck the horde
I'm pretty sure the range is 25ish yards, maybe 30
so i think the move is shoot it backwards, 180n0sc0p3 and intercept forward at the pack, Clap em and style back
lol
^
ninja ๐
that's pretty much it
I already did crazy shit my HM TAUREN fharge
and you can use it then leap teleport mid air
OMG
exactly like leap itnercept mid air
You NA?
I'll have company then. Everone is abandoning e.
๐ค
me*
The 1% shadow damage is nothing but also something given uu'nat build
also 5% damage for 12s every minute
Fuck the SHADOW RESIST IM GONNA STYLE BEAST ON THESE BITCHES
Not the best race but I'm here for it
I just want everyone to know I played Fury for the 3rd time today and i'm pretty much a god
Proud of you
I recently put siegebreaker on my bars after playing fury in a lot of bgs
decimated Nim in deeps
I always wondered why my damage sucked
I can't play fury when it only has one rage spender
It feels like shit
technically
it has 2
just the other one does not do damage
1
I was PUMPING that Shout yo
Ur either rampaging or executing
just kite city
I was talking about piercing howl lmao
being the utility we need baby
The fuck is a piercing howl?
i told you
i'm a god now at fury
450iq
it's a 100% uptime 50% snare
aka frost mage status
Ah yes
Back in Legion it was fun to use Piercing howl to get near permanent uptime on Frothing Berserker
arms still has hamsting
Fuck that hamstring can go back to its useless useless fury spec
Y'all deserve hamstring so you can have a reminder of what ur class is
You can always play classic ๐
Pretty sure in vanilla, PH was a talent
But I didn't play war in vanilla so I'm not sure that's true
Imagine play weak neck fury
Imagine playing classic
All the people who hate flying will be happy ๐
poyo I have an extremely simple reason I play fury
Until they realize they have to wait until level 40 to get the 60% ground mount, heirloom mount doesn't exist, and they probably won't be able to afford it when they do hit level 40 ๐
Brewmaster is so boring though :/
Thats APM tho
yeah
that's the reason I like those specs
Ah
all 6 of them
not brm
Oh, you play all but BrM
yeh
Meanwhile VDH is fun as hell but is like tanking as a wet paper towel
eh, it's fun for reasons that aren't rotational imho
I prefer the slower plays because I feel like I'm doing something
Which? BrM?
yep
Oh. What do you find fun about it?
it's very different from Prot but the thing with rotations are...at the end of the day it's all muscle memory anyway
i'm not really actively thinking "ok now tclap"
Well BrM is like the only spec in the game that still has a pretty much set rotation
We have options typically, even if they are minor options. e.g. do I press IP or Revenge, SS procs, etc
in general, being comfortable with the spec kinda implies that you can think about literally everything else and pull off the basics
Before I go ally I gotta get my aotc on my warrior
but that's what I think
Yeah it's like going for a drive and getting to your destination and don't really remember driving there
Need 3 more +10
yeah exactly
My excuse on performing bad this week
was that
I normally do not pay attention during trash
or most bosses
and with necro I actually had to play the game
I think we all do that
Is that what we're calling the +10 achieve now? AotC? lol
shocker ๐
Yup
I'm just gonna go horde and have Blade carry me to +15 feat
wish necro applied less, was easier to drop, but did more reduction so you could engage with the affix more
At least it drops with combat now
or it ticked down instead of cleared all at once
Was it grievous or necro that replace overhealing
so you can partially kite
Grievous
grevious
imagine an affix that did magic damage everytime you blocked/dodge/parried
Or holy pal with holy shock crits ๐

Like welp, insta 5-mil heal absorb
I want an affix that steals Mana from the healer everytime they crit
That would be fun, IF they nerfed the damage mobs dealt at the same time
And one that deals damage if they don't crit
this is kind of what necro does for me
since I went full crit for this week
I even got deadly nav
Oh noooooooooooo
40% party with both goreblock and deadly nav proced
Yesss, 40%party!
Ok but the real question
No ravager
lolol
Maybe one day they will remove ravager
They should just make it baseline and put something else in that tier that won't ever compete with AM
YALL MOTHEFCUKERS ALREADY HAVE STAT TALENT IN OUR TREE, JUST DO IT FOR RAVAGERS
Or I guess more realistically they could just make AM baseline and put another meh talent in that row to choose from.
I think your first thing was correct. Don't all warrior specs use AM?
Not arms
Ah
Oh, yeah that's pretty meh
At least DbtS should be affected ๐ค Is that the right ability? Idfk dps war shit
Their parry thing
Wut
It's the ravager of arms
Looks like in raids at least, they use AM
AM is your only choice on arms
It reduces warbreaker and bs
It says it works on Colossus Smash and BS on icyveins
Since forever lol
Not in 8.0
Which warbreaker replaces CS so same thing
Since bfa release
Then I must be misremembering because I swear I never went AM
I think?
Oh no
No wonder
I'm thinking of the legion Verison
But I could have sworn it didn't affect CS in 8.0
I can confirm for you that in 8.0, it worked
I can confirm for you that Tofu can confirm for you that in 8.0, it worked
Remember when we could ravager and bladestorm as prot
hi
Hello cat
how are you
Pretty fine, just got to bed
im goin to bed soon
playin some sims 4 first
i made this family right
and no one works
thjey just do stuff from home
one paints one is social media girl
and i accidentally had twins twice
so its hectic.
i love the sims ๐ฆ
sounds fun
whatcha doin thyme
nothing really, thinking about making dinner
I don't get the sims
whats not to get
I don't judge people who like it, I just can't do it myself
you can play vastly different lives each time
My type of game is DOOM2016 for example
Think is, I don't care about any of my sims or what they are doing
Anyway
this is my sims game
https://www.raidbots.com/
The easiest way to use SimulationCraft. A resource for World of Warcraft players.
Now THOSE sims I can get behind
Where the sim?
100%
Disgusting
Remember the day when #protection was anti sim and had good family morals
Now it's all degenerate sims
Give me my wholesome no-sim prot back
hey, I've read / watched people talk about prot war stats. So whats the correct stats we want tof mythic plus? Heavy crit or heavy haste?
@stiff niche check pms
^ will do ty
You have a copypasta you're DMing people don't you Keage ๐
Needed more leech
๐คฆ
๐ข y u do dis epyawn
Whoa, hey, I didn't say you needed more.
nod
Did they stop giving 415 azerite pieces from the weekly chest?
you get reziduum to buy pieces now
you can roll for a rando item on a specific slot once every 2-3 weeks depending on what keylevel you do
maybe more if you do sub 10's but๐
Yeah if you do a 16 each week, you'll have enough for a random 415 every 2 weeks.
Iโve noticed, done ~10 or so +10s this week and didnโt even saw ONE azerite gear drop. Just came back from a 4 month break, every slot is 400 besides azerite ones, which are 380. Should I buy random 400s? Or wait for random 415s?
@lime wing wait for 415. Only way to get 415 is mythic raid that that currency.
400 is super easy to get now a days
If you're only going to be doing +10s and not going to raid, I would buy the 400s. If you're going to be doing higher keys sooner rather than later, wait for the 415s. Important to note that you can get 400 ilevel azerite from emissaries now too so if you want to wait it out and just save for a 415 anyway (even if not raiding or doing higher M+), you can just hope for good emissary rolls
Agree with @warm plinth . 400 from emmisary and h raid pugs are easy. Save for 415.
Or well, if you're doing +10s I guess you can get a 415 every 3 weeks
@lime wing Azerite from dungeons is 370 and only drops on +0 keys. You should save your titan residuum from each weeks cache until you can afford 415 azerite tokens
wait hold up
dont buy 400s
you can get 400 pieces from emisaries
its stupid to buy 400 azerite pieces at this point
You can also pug a mythic champions kill for 415 azerite chest with pretty decent traits
^
also that
roll helm and shoulders first is what that means
you can get chest fairly fast with a 20 min investment each week
also shield
you should pug mythic champions every week until you have everything from it
Yep. Dont waste on 400. Haha
There are communities out there for mythic raid pugs as well. Worth looking into if you want to push a bit for 1 or 2 kills. Sorry I dont have a link, but ask in trade chat or on here, someone might be able to invite to one of the pug raid communities. @lime wing
Just know they will likely expect a high raider.io score of some other requirement if you dont know someone, so expect to have to answer questions when asked. But most people that run those groups are cool.
For M+ - Callous Reprisal or Iron Fortress?
CR is more damage, IF is slightly smoother damage intake iirc
Awesome, thanks! And M+ again - Blood Rite vs Brace for Impact? Seems like I shield slam a lot less in M+. Not sure how that plays out exactly.
๐
Blood rite, you will get more use. You will see slight increase on tyrannical for ss, but there is so much aoe in m+ the stat will be a larger boon. Bosses mean nothing, even on tyrannical on keys lower that 20 that it's pointless to stack for them.
And hello at 130am @ionic fern
Okay. Thanks!
@gritty notch just think about it this way. Haste is more ip and reduced block. Its king. Tank damage, yes even as prot war, means nothing compared to making damage near zero with ip and block uptime.
And it's more damage with lower gcd to cap.
Okay. :)
One more question for M+. Sometimes I feel like I'm carrying my healer. Is Vengeance ever better than Booming Voice?
Long story short, no. You should stick with Booming Voice for m+
Okay.
Yea, boice is a retarded amount of damage. If your healer needs you to run veng, you need a new healer. The greatest strength of prot war is the damage we bring, especially in reap. And bv is massive. Prot war burst is literally a 4th dps on aoe burst.
In m+ specifically.
Prot takes near zero damage in m+ anyways, bring the pain. Haha
Genuinely replace your healer
LOL - Okay thanks!
Assuming you have at least an average understanding of prot
Because it could also be your fault
I have decent understanding. Legion I did the tower, tanked the chosen, some mythic (War is an alt). I just haven't done too much this expac prot-wise and tanks are never really found for our guild M+ so I wanted to help out.
I don't know if those things are hard because I skipped legion
But I'm gonna assume you're good enough that it's a healer problem ๐
What @willow scarab means is sb uptime and ip abuse btw.
Yea wired. Just aim for 65% uptime for block uptime dump rage into IP as long as you have agro. Everything else is healers fault. Haha
65% in a m+? o.o
You can have 100% relevant block uptime
Throwing % out in the air without context doesn't mean anything.
what is a mythic champion ?
Well, relevant is a wide word. :')
Relevant as in 100% uptime on all attacks that are blockable? ๐ค Doubt you can manage that in a m+ run.
Relevant as in 100% uptime on attacks that are actually going to hurt you? Jeah...maybe...depending on the pulls etc.
In what context @livid totem ?
Can be Mythic Champions of Light (1st boss in BoD).
Pvp
yeah no.
Thank god I stopped playing rogue since a long time
Bro FUCK rogues and everything they stand for
They are obnoxious. ๐ฆ
I like playing my rogue from time to time ๐ฆ
