mortal brook
#

tulip panther
#

@junior ivy or just go play beta ... oh nvm ๐Ÿ˜ข

last mason
#

The thing about prot in m + tho is that a tank carries 90% of the dungeon responsibility

tulip panther
#

@sick sentinel Legion HYPE

lusty grotto
#

maybe in lower keys

#

that's def not the case past 15

junior ivy
#

sweet summit
#

Right now, yea

sick sentinel
#

@tulip panther yeah my dude i like playing poe start of every league its good

#

junior ivy
#

sweet summit
#

Best tank atm, for m+ at least

tulip panther
#

@sick sentinel it fills nicely the downtime, altho its a timesink for me.

astral crystal
#

prot is not good, play bear

sick sentinel
#

@tulip panther yeah i mean thats how poe designed people hype up go in play like 3-4 different builds and probably move on to something and wait for next league

#

i play for like a month to try out couple builds i havent then stop playing

tulip panther
#

i play like 2-3weeks per char, usually endup leveling like 2-4 toons

dense flame
#

Imagine season 3 you were hoping to be fun like reaping was deswind yeah more like dead queue AGAIN.

#

Streams make it look kinda dumb. But canโ€™t dock it till I try it.

strong forum
#

Well reaping also looked dumb scary on ptr

tired hawk
#

do you guys have any tips for necrotic ? I struggle a lot to lose stacks in some keys

#

like WM for example

junior ivy
#

cry and hope for the best

tired hawk
#

lmao

junior ivy
#

its how i handled it ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

when i played lol

half palm
#

run away

steel mauve
#

Pretty much dont be afraid to kite, wcm sucks for it due to tight hallways and stuff but kiting is a pretty good defense

strong forum
#

Be dwarf

#

Also have alot of crit aka parry to get less stacks to begin with

#

And on lower keys packs should die before getting to any amount of dangerous stacks

tired hawk
#

well I was kiting

#

but my healer (pug) wasn't following me

#

crying that I was running out of los

coral jasper
#

When is crit enough to stop stacking tho @strong forum

strong forum
#

Idk im at 25%crit and have permanently 30% parry

#

And apparently at 45%crit you only have 38% parry

#

So that sounds like a good spot

willow scarab
#

25% base crit?

strong forum
#

Yes

willow scarab
#

screenshot? what are your stats

strong forum
#

I have 1.5k crit

#

1.5k haste

#

300 mastery 300 versa

#

I'm not at home rn

willow scarab
#

so you have crit/haste gear with no other stats basically

#

that's so lucky

#

i'm 19/19/32/5

strong forum
#

Ye I have 6 sockets

#

Ontop of crit haste gear

coral jasper
#

im 20-20-30-8 .. 8% leech

strong forum
#

Leech

#

Lamo

coral jasper
#

Well... can be

willow scarab
#

Why does it feel like you guys have more stats than me

coral jasper
#

I mean thats passive as fuck ... happens to be my best stated gear too

willow scarab
#

but i'm 421

#

maths not adding up here

coral jasper
#

I'm only 408 or w/e

#

CHECK ER AGAIN BOI

#

lol

willow scarab
#

you don't have 20 20 30 8 at 408

coral jasper
#

Nah I only have 17% hstw without talent

strong forum
willow scarab
#

If I have 19 19 32 5 at 421

strong forum
#

This is my armor stuff

coral jasper
#

Well, armory is always wrong

strong forum
#

Ye

#

Ingame I have more

coral jasper
#

yea

willow scarab
#

yeah armory isn't correct

sick sentinel
#

Imagine being that bad

strong forum
#

I have 1% more on everything

#

Ingame

sick sentinel
#

and fuck up so much

#

that you altf4

willow scarab
#

that's why they're buying a carry off you

#

....right

coral jasper
#

wait you had two priests?

#

One could have just gripped the other to not be bad

#

๐Ÿ˜†

strong forum
#

That a druid

#

So he's twice as bad

coral jasper
#

uh

#

reverses grip

#

can just wild charge

#

but LEMME GUESS .. he took renewal

#

-.-

strong forum
#

Or just ykno, stealth better

coral jasper
#

WEll, as a druid you have to use sprint with stealth to get by

#

or bait himi to look right

#

then walk left

#

but yeah either way ... sounds like in a 16 he should know whats going on

strong forum
#

16 is meme tier

willow scarab
#

how you gonna skip that without a rogue or night elf

coral jasper
#

Feel me bro

willow scarab
#

can he just walk?

coral jasper
#

Read what I put

#

You had to combo prowl with stealth

#

or bait him to look right

#

and walk left if sprint is down

#

but yeah you can skip with plain old stealth

willow scarab
#

prowl is stealth

coral jasper
#

yeah i know

#

i meant

willow scarab
#

you said combo prowl with stealth

coral jasper
#

sprint w prowl

#

fml

strong forum
#

Also, why did the druid release when the priest can rss

#

Is the next question

coral jasper
#

Some things may never be answered

strong forum
#

Pugs :^)

willow scarab
#

the real question is why you didn't have the rogue pull it to the side and vanish

coral jasper
#

Or the monk can ROP on him to make him bounce away and druid stealth

strong forum
#

It's way after that fumei

coral jasper
#

unless he is uneffected by ROP

willow scarab
#

you can't rop that mob?

strong forum
#

They have 60% count

coral jasper
#

yeah i wasn't sure

strong forum
#

So he died prolly to harpooners

willow scarab
#

oh true

#

this guy died and kepot dying

coral jasper
#

That's why I said unless he is uneffected by it but either way ... druids kit ALONE is enough without bringing ANYONE else into it

strong forum
#

Yup

coral jasper
#

shit.. pull it sprint by ... and SM

strong forum
#

He's just stoopid that's the end of it

coral jasper
#

so many diff ways around it

strong forum
#

Well they're horde

coral jasper
#

Well, then they shouldn't be playing

strong forum
#

So no SM

coral jasper
#

๐Ÿ˜› โค

#

Lol jk but ... SM is broken as dick

strong forum
#

Yeah bro fuck horde

coral jasper
#

If you're into WOW for M+ ... you have to be SM .. it's unparralelled

#

NE.. / SM .. w/e

strong forum
#

I prefer dwarf

tulip panther
#

Night Elf i get but.. the fucks SM

coral jasper
#

well for rdruid

#

NE

#

shadow meld

#

thats why i said w/e

tulip panther
#

oh..

coral jasper
#

lol bc SM isnt a race

tulip panther
#

was like "NE ../ SM" was thinking that what is the race equillevent for NE

#

LUL

coral jasper
#

lol nah my fuck up

tulip panther
#

not easy to be a dumb dumb :/

distant crystal
#

dorf4lyfe

coral jasper
#

Feel me bro

#

So can someone tell me the benefit of being a dwarf over a dark iron dwarf if there is one at all not considering switching but genuinely curious since dark iron dwarf seems to have everything Superior

distant crystal
#

tbh DiD is probably strictly better for an M+ prot warr

#

the 2% crit dmg is cool but delver is huge

#

i guess vanilla dorf is better defensively but meh

modern brook
#

Dwarf more like Dwoof must suck playing alliance

lusty grotto
stark fox
#

Anyone tried out beguiling yet on ptr?

last mason
#

3rd dc or swirling sands, which do you think will be more dmg

warm plinth
#

Swirling Sands

last mason
#

Can deepwounds crust extend the proc

#

Procs*

#

Crits****

#

Not procs

warm plinth
#

Maybe? I'm not 100%, sorry

#

@sick sentinel might know

sand egret
#

Like, if a deep wounds tick crits, does it extend the duration? No

warm plinth
#

Well there you go ๐Ÿ˜„ I was about to trawl through WCL data to see if I could find out

sick sentinel
#

And im om an hour que at 145 pm....and the games dying supposedly

last mason
#

Can I sim hac and will it be relatively accurate

stark fox
#

@sick sentinel the servers kicked people out

#

lmao

#

has nothing to do with the population of the game

sick sentinel
#

I was ponged

#

sick sentinel

#

Hey guys, do you know if the timer for the hidden appearance resets every day at the reset timer ( 9h here ) or at the hour i went to the cave yesterday ?

lusty grotto
#

i believe on reset timer

#

since it counts as a "hidden" daily quest

#

and daily quests reset at the same reset as everything else

warm plinth
#

Yeah it's on the daily reset timer ๐Ÿ‘

sick sentinel
#

Is it fixed?

distant crystal
#

don't think so

#

but i'm pos 11 in queue

#

can't wait to get kicked out when it reaches 0

sick sentinel
#

Yea it just messes up

#

Exactly

#

Est wait time 423 minutes..

#

This really shows i dont wanna play anything else i own lol

fresh vigil
#

is it worth using 400ilvl azerite stuff over 420 for better traits?

lusty grotto
#

no

#

higher ilvl >

fresh vigil
#

alright.

#

for trinkets what do you guys reccomend as top tier? do you follow the icy veins reccomends?

lusty grotto
#

icy veins is our guide

sick sentinel
#

rezan/gore-crusted/diamond

#

they are all good trinkets

lusty grotto
#

so for defensive options yeah

sick sentinel
#

but it also depends on ilvl

fresh vigil
#

i dont have the block but ive got other 2

#

all 400 ilvl

sick sentinel
#

it is worth to 400ilvl rezan then 425 with a socket sporepod for example

fresh vigil
#

i also am alchemist so i hav the 415 alchemist one

lusty grotto
#

diamond is kinda useless this week in M+

sick sentinel
#

yeah this week its bad

lusty grotto
#

but otherwise it's solid

sick sentinel
#

but generaly its good defensively

fresh vigil
#

ive got 400 vial, rezans, mechtor trink, 405 howl one, 415 alchemist trink

sick sentinel
#

i personaly use 425 jes and 410 rezan with a socket

lusty grotto
#

i use rezan/block and anchor/block

sick sentinel
#

most people like vial but i dont really like it cause its big for 6 secs and not so much after

fresh vigil
#

i dont have anything that high yet all 400 except the 405 jess howl one

lusty grotto
#

but i don't have a diamond anyway

fresh vigil
#

ohh yeah i also have the 400 diamond

sick sentinel
#

@fresh vigil alchemy stone is massive

fresh vigil
#

only one i thnk im missing is the gore block

sick sentinel
#

Use that+rezans

fresh vigil
#

ok

#

over the mechtork haste one?

sick sentinel
#

Eh

#

Yeah

fresh vigil
#

ok

sick sentinel
#

In my opinion

fresh vigil
#

i only do M+

#

i dont really raid

lusty grotto
#

Deswind bless me with good RNG on ivus tonight please ๐Ÿ˜ข

fresh vigil
#

whats wrong with wow?

#

#

@potent anvil

๐Ÿ™

runic yoke
#

Hmmm prot warriors using 2handed uunat polearm in mdi

sick sentinel
#

Us servers are shit

fresh vigil
#

what azerite traits are you using?

#

if i move to the 420 pieces i have i wont have 3 bastions

#

do you use trecherous covenant?

lusty grotto
#

doesn't matter

#

the 415s > 400

sick sentinel
#

i dont like covenant

#

What are the priority stats on prot for m+? In currently at 1550 ish haste along with 10-11% versa

#

personaly

fresh vigil
#

i dont either.

lusty grotto
#

ilvl >>> haste >>> everything just about

sick sentinel
#

Running that with 3 bastions, 425 rezan and 410 idol.

#

I like covenant

fresh vigil
#

i just see it ranked pretty high

sick sentinel
#

Makes me do big numbers

fresh vigil
#

even this week with necro?

#

not scared for the extra damage?

lusty grotto
#

whats wrong with TC on necro?

#

what extra damage?

fresh vigil
#

the 15% extra damage if low

sick sentinel
#

I'm pulling like 20-22k overall

#

If your health falls bellow 50%

lusty grotto
#

im aware

sick sentinel
#

You're resetting stacks

lusty grotto
#

ya

sick sentinel
#

Anyway

lusty grotto
#

pretty much

fresh vigil
#

i reset at about 25?

#

you guys?

lusty grotto
#

i basically don't

sick sentinel
#

30+

#

around same 25 30

tulip panther
#

@lusty grotto uhm.. why you wanna knot ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

sick sentinel
#

Nim you don't do high keys

#

Is mastery more worth than versa in m+ tho?
Yeah i reset att 25-35 depending

lusty grotto
#

why don't you wanna knot

#

@sick sentinel does he?

sick sentinel
#

Vers is better than mastery

tulip panther
#

idk..i already have buch of use trinkets ๐Ÿ˜ก

lusty grotto
#

what key levels do you do @fresh vigil

sand egret
#

it's knot really my cup of tea, tbh

fresh vigil
#

10-15

tulip panther
#

@sand egret AYYY

fresh vigil
#

im 1300 IO

lusty grotto
#

so kaege

#

falling back to what you said

sick sentinel
#

There is a big difference between somebody that does low keys and doesn't know how to play
With you that do low keys but KNOWS

lusty grotto
#

because you came off as other people

#

just now

sick sentinel
#

No

#

I'm just saying

#

Anyone who got any suggestions on what I need to change?

fresh vigil
#

@lusty grotto i do anywhere between 10-15's

sick sentinel
#

That you know what you are doing but you don't have a team

#

That's different

lusty grotto
#

i dont see how that has anything to do with what i said

#

pretty much has 0 relevance

sick sentinel
#

If you don't drop SB/LS at all

gloomy rain
#

I do mythic 0s ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Since I'm learning to tank

sick sentinel
#

You don't need to reset

#

Because your health doesn't fall down

lusty grotto
#

i'll just leave the IO dudes answer everything, fuck it

modern brook
#

ur race

sick sentinel
#

I didn't wanna come off as I did

modern brook
#

disgusting

sick sentinel
#

No

#

Nim

#

For real

#

Yo

#

Anyone who got some suggestions?

modern brook
sick sentinel
#

Why tho?

#

I like taurens due to stomp

#

I'm not the MDI type, so race wont matter

#
  • taurens have increased stamina ๐Ÿ™ˆ
tulip panther
#

female milkwagon Pog

sick sentinel
#

Yeah

tulip panther
#

_bull_fango and hates tauren... SMH

modern brook
#

didnt realize this was #virgins

sick sentinel
#

No he's lactose intolerant

modern brook
#

my bad

tulip panther
#

wow ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

fresh vigil
#

idk what just happened

sick sentinel
#

Long story

#

Anyway

#

My method of reseting stacks on necro

modern brook
#

Rumbling earth should be storm bolt

#

You 100% have higher than 405 rings

sick sentinel
#

Is if over 25 stacks and health under 50% reset

#

Bull, i've probably fucked more girls than your whole male-family Side tbh.

modern brook
#

90% of the time they're better

distant crystal
#

just press stoneform

sick sentinel
#

Sometimes I reset at 25 sometimes I reset at 50

modern brook
#

Imagine being that serious on in internet chat room

#

๐Ÿ˜ฌ

fresh vigil
#

wow ok

sick sentinel
#

Imagine shutting someone down with facts, thefeelsman

modern brook
#

xd

fresh vigil
#

i usually jump out by defualt at 25

modern brook
#

If u want other advice go ask ur dad or something i guess

tulip panther
#

the spice

sick sentinel
#

I have multisided band at415

#

Still No haste

#

= shit

modern brook
#

Ok!

tulip panther
#

ilvl, go in

sick sentinel
#

Wrong

tulip panther
#

crit for this week, pogey

sick sentinel
#

I would drop 5 ilvls

#

But 10 is a lot

modern brook
sick sentinel
#

I know it is not a bad stat, bit id prefer versa/haste or haste/mastery any Day over crit

#

Crit is the best stat for mplus btw

oblique garnet
#

Crit & haste are the best stat for m+

modern brook
#

Maybe im insane but if ur just going to do what feels best why bother ask for advice?

sick sentinel
#

And since ill loose like 3% haste by switching ring

#

Excluding haste ofc

distant crystal
#

mould ๐Ÿค”

sand egret
#

the best stat for mold is damp, dark areas

tulip panther
#

@distant crystal yes, its slang for titanforged uldir loot..kapp

sand egret
#

oh wait

sick sentinel
#

How come crit is such a Huge value tho?

#

mould

#

Clap crits?

#

Parry

#

Yeah well

#

Crit gets converted to parry rating at a 1:1 ratio

#

Dafuq

modern brook
#

its a party

sick sentinel
#

That i did not know tbh

#

You can parry necrotic applications

#

Reap soul

distant crystal
fresh vigil
#

hmmmm

sick sentinel
#

BLEEDS

#

Thought that counted as magic whilst still on hit apply

#

But yeah, i get the idea

sand egret
sick sentinel
#

So i guess versa is above mastery but below crit thene?

#

Then*

tulip panther
sick sentinel
#

Versa is a reliable stat meanwhile crit aint

#

And since parry/block/dodge is rng

modern brook
#

Verse is also the lowest through put

sick sentinel
#

Damn

modern brook
#

hence

sick sentinel
#

Better go fetch myself some crit Gear then

modern brook
#

and also why we prioritize haste over everything

sick sentinel
#

Or just switch to my fury gear

#

What about trinkets?

#

Got 425 rezan (lucky af ik)

#

And then idol at 410

#

Also got the 410 dps cos trinket, could probably craft alch trinket aswell, tho its not that good maybe?

sand egret
sick sentinel
#

Level 45 leveling talent which one could i choose?

sand egret
#

unstoppable force

modern brook
#

@sand egret i see ur after my hat ๐Ÿค 

sick sentinel
#

ty

sand egret
#

pull the whole quest, pop avatar

#

and clear it

sick sentinel
#

@sick sentinel alchemy trinket is MASSIVE for mplus

sand egret
#

granted...im not sure WHEN you get avatar....

sick sentinel
#

Due to versa or extra heal?

sand egret
#

wtf you get Avatar at level 90? but can choose UF at 45?!

modern brook
sick sentinel
#

Go with bouncing stride maybe?

sand egret
#

@sick sentinel NOOO get back herre dont take UF if you're sub level 90!

modern brook
#

@sick sentinel if ur sub 90 go with dragon roar

sick sentinel
#

Or is that lvl 30 talent?

sand egret
#

that's 30

#

take DRoar

modern brook
#

you should also probably be going clap radius on that row

sick sentinel
#

sub 90??

modern brook
#

at least until reaping stops exisiting

sand egret
#

you don't have access to Avatar until level 90

modern brook
#

Liek if ur leveling below level 90

sand egret
#

so if you're below that, Unstoppable Force does nothing for you

sick sentinel
#

Oh i hit 45 just now

modern brook
#

Then yeah run dragon roar until you get avatar

#

then swap asap

sand egret
#

since it only works/does anything during avatar

sick sentinel
warm plinth
#

Wat. That's the Avatar talent, not the Avatar ability. You get Avatar at level 40

oblique garnet
#

^

sand egret
#

Oh?

#

NVM BACK TO UF

sick sentinel
#

Lmao

oblique garnet
#

Arms can talent into avatar

#

Prot has it on baseline

warm plinth
#

Why would they give you a talent that is affected by an ability you don't have yet. That would be dumb af lol

modern brook
#

who the fuck plays arms?

sick sentinel
#

They can't give you a talent for an ability you don't have

warm plinth
#

Actually I'm pretty sure those exist though

modern brook
#

@warm plinth its blizzard dude

sand egret
#

Honestly, there are weird instances of that currently

warm plinth
#

Where some of the abilities aren't actually available

#

Like the talent affects x and y but you can't get y yet

sand egret
#

so i didn't doubt it, but I also haven't leveled a warrior since....lord knows when

sick sentinel
#

Im leveling prot warr for pve is it good?

modern brook
#

I mean

sand egret
#

I like it because you can pull ALL THE MOBS

modern brook
#

u literally cant die

#

so thats p good

sick sentinel
#

Sec

warm plinth
#

Yeah, and you do a lot of damage

sand egret
#

also helps you get into groups for quests instantly

modern brook
#

^^^^^

sick sentinel
sand egret
#

esp those juicy dungeon quests

oblique garnet
#

No

modern brook
#

thats

#

uhhhh

#

What the fuck is that

#

that's a cursed image

gloomy rain

Full defense

modern brook
#

sand egret
#

gloomy rain
#

I do not know what i'm doing but that made me LOL

warm plinth
#

Please don't play warrior

modern brook
#

OOF ghash

#

#

:^(

warm plinth
#

Sorry. I just...

#

It was a reflex

sand egret
#

this is a teaching moment!

modern brook
#

@sick sentinel I would highly suggest giving the guide on icy-veins a read through

gloomy rain
#

SOMEONE TEACH HIM

sand egret
#

Let's get out in front of this

#

But first and foremost: DON'T MACRO ALL YOUR ABILITIES TOGETHER

#

๐Ÿ˜ƒ

distant crystal
#

you forgot ignore pain bruh

lusty grotto
#

sorry i would say something but i only do 18s and 17s

modern brook
#

but the long and short of this is that cooldown miantence is a key aspect of prot warrior

warm plinth
#

LOL NIM

modern brook
#

OOF NIM

lusty grotto
#

my advice is bad

distant crystal
#

or wait there's a scrollbar nvm

red wedge
#

I dont think there are any abilities you would want to macro together in the warrior's kit

sick sentinel
#

I don't think i have that much english for understand guide xd

modern brook
#

OUCH

#

I believe they're in other languages

#

Dont quote me on that

warm plinth
#

Yeah, racial is correct. Do not macro abilities together.

sand egret
#

If not, you're better off practicing when to use the abilities when you level.

sick sentinel
#

Turkish?

distant crystal
#

#showtooltip intervene

modern brook
#

@lusty grotto why are u being emo about ur score

warm plinth
#

afaik there aren't different language icy-veins guides

#

At least, not for prot

modern brook
#

๐Ÿคท

distant crystal
#

i'd imagine google translate would get the job done

#

with a few goofy bits lost in translation

sick sentinel
#

The thing is

warm plinth
#

๐Ÿ˜ฌ Maybe but google doesn't pick up well on english phrasing when you translate shit

sand egret
#

@sick sentinel you do not want to macro all your abilities together in general. guide or no guide, learning when to use them is the entire point of learning to play Prot

sick sentinel
#

I cant use if my bar is full

#

So i just macro some

sand egret
#

get bigger bars

#

is your answer

warm plinth
#

Like if you take the first paragraph of the guide, put it in google translate as Turkish, then translate it back to English, it comes out as this:

Protection Fighters are superior in battles where a high amount of physical damage or mobility is needed. Most of the damage they receive is mitigated by blocking, making damage purchases smooth and predictable. In addition, it provides a healthy utility, whether it's crowd control or dominant enthusiasts. Since they are a tough tank around them, they make them a valuable option both in raids and in dungeons.

modern brook
#

damage purchases smooth and predictable

warm plinth
#

And that's probably the simplest paragraph in the guide

sand egret
#

"Ill take two damages, please"

warm plinth
#

lol

distant crystal
#

like i said, there will be goofy bits

sand egret
#

"Here you go, kind sir"

distant crystal
#

but you can still get the jist for the most part

sick sentinel
#

Well if i use my macro ill probably cant be killed for 6 sec

#

Then ill die faster then a rat

sand egret
#

i mean...prob not

warm plinth
#

Yeah but we know english well, which means we could see the goofy bits. He might not be able to because it'll translate into something super weird.

sand egret
#

since your macro will probably throw off all your cds anyway, you'll hit it and still go splat ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

modern brook
#

I mean

#

If we ignore the fact that the macro is an abomination

#

its also just objectively a bad macro

distant crystal
#

i mean i use it to translate other languages to english fairly often, and you get silly things like that pretty often

#

but with a little thinking and context clues you can usually figure out what was meant

modern brook
#

everything on GCD after avatar will not be cast

distant crystal
#

and in any case, the results will be better than macroing every defensive together

neon tangle
#

Obviously change it to castsequence

modern brook
#

quick tangent

warm plinth
#

Yeah but that's translating other languages into english and you can use context clues in normal text. A guide is different because it's very specific. Even if they conjugated a verb wrong/weirdly, it could mean they're doing something wrong.

modern brook
#

watching video guides for prot warrior gives me agita

distant crystal
#

@sick sentinel what's your native language?

modern brook
#

sick sentinel

Anything is better than that macro though, tbf

if you're macro'ing, you don't

i highly doubt that works for shadow priest...but yeah there are no abilities you want/should macro together outside of like a racial and a trinket

sick sentinel

Im gonna use that

lusty grotto

Is that what it's called? You play Resident Evil Outbreak?

sick sentinel
modern brook
#

@warm plinth fuck man thats some memories

gloomy rain
#

nim, you should tank LFR for me and just do all the tanking solo

lusty grotto
#

i could i could

#

that's always fun

sand egret
#

really hope you dont use that for ranged pulling...

warm plinth
#

I loved that game.

sand egret
#

that could get dicey

lusty grotto
#

like doing LFR cabal, and tanking everything because fuck ranged tanks

modern brook
#

@sick sentinel that macro is literally just intercept

warm plinth
#

Wait, what's that macro for?

gloomy rain
#

I don't know the fights yet. Just hit 120 a few days ago ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

modern brook
#

throw wont go off

sick sentinel
#

Throws range is more then intercept

modern brook
#

ahhh

#

AHHHHHHHHHHHH

#

ok

sick sentinel
#

I can throw it without charge

distant crystal
#

intercept is off gcd no?

lusty grotto
#

yikes i feel bad now

distant crystal
#

so it would still do both

primal sable
#

why would you want to tho

warm plinth
#

Yeah but heroic throw has a 30 yard range

sand egret
#

it's off

warm plinth
#

Intercept has 25

#

Still a bad macro though tbh

lusty grotto
#

i thought that was a screenshot of some other guy, sorry Leinyan

warm plinth
#

Since you will use heroic throw plenty from within 25 yards

distant crystal
#

yeah cause you can't avatar during the charge

warm plinth
#

And that

sand egret
#

this is more of a "but y tho" moment

lusty grotto
#

pressing F for your resolution though

#

F

modern brook
#

@distant crystal intercept is not off gcd it has a reduced GCD

sick sentinel
#

Tbh i just like making macros

modern brook
#

i believe its .25s

warm plinth
#

You have other bindings Leinyan; why do you need to macro shit together?

lusty grotto
#

ok ok but seriously theres 1 other decently useful macro and its the intercept one

modern brook
#

so u can still intercept and avatar in the charge animation

warm plinth
#

Intercept is off the GCD. The .25s GCD is just for itself so you don't accidentally spam it and use it twice in a row.

modern brook
#

but you cant macro it in that way

distant crystal
#

i'm pretty sure it's off, it just has its own cd to keep you from double tapping

leaden raptor
#

rip prot =/

lusty grotto
#

no i meant the target of target one for safeguard

modern brook
#

Hmm

leaden raptor
#

our one time to shine this exp.

I'll trust you on that i guess

lusty grotto

wait @sand egret does that one count ?

modern brook
#

its been a minute since i busted out the prot war and i avatar pre charge most of the time still cause im retarded

i can't verify cause somebody at blizzard is having the worst friday ever

the rip prot guy?

That counts

oh totally

lusty grotto

yup!

sand egret
#

even had a follow-up statement

lusty grotto
#

congratulations on making the count!

warm plinth

I'm actually really impressed if you actually counted out 208 messages

lusty grotto
#

oh yeah haha totally

modern brook
#

208 instances of ppl thinking a TC nerf will ruin our damage?

lusty grotto
#

nono

warm plinth
#

I mean, I'm sure it's happened at least that many times though, so you could play it off

sand egret
#

it will ruin our damage. it's 208 instance of people claiming the spec is dead due to it

lusty grotto
#

208 people reporting the recent nerf

leaden raptor
#

yeah not gonna be only tank at mdi anymore

#

feelsbadman

sand egret
#

and?

lusty grotto

can i count that one as another?

sand egret

why is that a good thing?

warm plinth
#

Yeah, count it

sand egret
#

yes

lusty grotto

oooo

lusty grotto

211 thanks bull

warm plinth
#

Leinyan, delete it, please

leaden raptor
#

taking our spot

sand egret
#

you really need to delete that macro mate

modern brook
sand egret
#

it's doing you 0 favors

warm plinth
#

There is literally zero reason you would ever need that macro for anything.

sand egret
#

and is only hurting you as a Prot

#

it's purely making your situation worse

sick sentinel
#

Why

modern brook
#

Prot warrior is at its core about cooldown managmeent

lusty grotto
#

because you don't use those together like that

sand egret
#

It doesnt help you

#

and it makes it worse for you

modern brook
#

burning all of them together maeks it so you wont be able to use them for incoming damage

sand egret
#

because you aren't controlling your cooldowns

modern brook
#

ie: if you use all of it on the first tank buster

#

you wont have one for the 2nd tank buster

#

and then u get busted

warm plinth
#

Because a.) we have the highest mitigation of any tank. b.) stacking (some) defensives devalues them, and c.) if you use them all at once, you don't have one to use when another emergency situation happens 30 seconds later

modern brook
#

^

lusty grotto
#

(also most of those are on the gcd, which means you would have to mash it)

modern brook
#

^

sick sentinel
#

Well i cant control that much keys either

lusty grotto
#

also some of those aren't even defensive skills

sick sentinel
#

so much abilities

sand egret
#

Think of it this way:
You're trying to play Chess.
You find a program that will make a "move" for you.
You spend the rest of your time just hitting the "Run" button on that program.
You finally have to play Chess without that program. What do you do?

lusty grotto
#

see berserker rage

warm plinth
#

Sure you can. You literally have like 8 keybindings on that screenshot

#

I use like 3x that many

#

On every character

sand egret
#

i'd suggest getting a better setup to your keybinds then

warm plinth
#

It even looks like you have a mouse with extra buttons

sand egret
#

you have like 4 things bound on your bars

warm plinth
#

Or a keyboard at least, whichever M4 is

sick sentinel
#

Yea i have 2 buttons on my mouse

#

one for mount

modern brook
#

@sick sentinel you're not going to get pity on key spacing here tbh. I would highly suggest hitting up google for a 1 button macro if you're that adamant about not adapting your keyboard structure

sand egret
#

maybe use that button for something useful in combat?

sick sentinel
#

other for abilities like devas

modern brook
#

Like we can spend another 45 minutes telling you its not worth it

sand egret
#

yeah....if you're looking for something to play the game for ya...I can't help ya

modern brook
#

or you can look for what you want from other sources

sand egret
#

if you want advice on how to play the game, that's a different story

modern brook
#

not to be an asshole

sand egret
#

but looks like you need a macro forum to get what you want

sick sentinel
#

Well i just like to speaking xD

sand egret
#

I'm sure there's forums where people make one-button macros for specs

warm plinth
#

What keybinds do you use Leinyan

Besides the 2 mouse buttons

what about Z X C V

also shift + all of those

1-7

lusty grotto

also ctrl + all of those

Ehhh

I don't like using ctrl or alt as a modifier myself

sick sentinel

Im not that good as use ctrl lol

warm plinth

Shift is okay though, as long as it's not the number keys with it

lusty grotto
#

you must have long fingers to reach 7 jesus

warm plinth

Yeah idk how people use 7 regularly

lusty grotto
#

i can only do up to 5

modern brook

1= shield slam 2 = thunderclap 3 = revenge 4 = ip 5 = shield block f = kick g = last stand q = shield wall e = avatar r = demo sohut

7 for racials

modern brook

I'ce done it

#

every other button is useless

distant crystal

my keybinds are super dumb

lusty grotto

i use z for racials :p

Where's berserker rage, heroic throw, spell reflect

but i'm too used to them to change now

F that spell

1 shield bash - mouse button 1 devastate - 2 revenge - 3 shield block -4 victory rush - e intercept - r clap - 5 random defensive - 6 random defensive - 7 racial - q leap - f pummel - g taunt

scarred my mind, my OCD double -critted when i saw his ui binds

warm plinth

So it sounds like you're fine

#

Why do you need to macro shit together

#

I haven't seen it myself naskuli lol. Is it that bad?

sick sentinel
#

Well i can just click

#

my defensives but

warm plinth
#

Not a good idea, since at least two of them are rotational when you get to higher levels

#

Demo Shout and Last Stand

distant crystal
#

like thunderclap is shift-f

tulip panther
#

TC is 2

#

fite me

distant crystal
#

and devestate is 4

tulip panther
#

how you are going to spam shift-f is beyond me

distant crystal
#

like i said my keybinds ar edumb

sick sentinel
#

I cant use shift alt or ctrl

distant crystal
#

but i just sorta added stuff as i leveled

lusty grotto
#

TC is 5 for me

distant crystal
#

and now i'm stuck with em

#

i'd be too shit for too long if i tried to change em

warm plinth
#

Shift-F for something used as commonly as Thunder Clap is ridiculous

sick sentinel
#

I use most used skills near my movement

warm plinth
#

Also TC is 5 for me too Nim โค

tulip panther
#

heck, cant find the screenshot from kaegs ui

sick sentinel
#

So i can easily access them

modern brook
#

Shift F for tclap is secret op

warm plinth
#

That's what I do as well. The abilities I use most often are the most convenient to press

distant crystal
#

i wish the game was up so i could get a screenshot of my scuffed binds

tulip panther
#

nvm i lied, since i dropped devastator i had to move TC from 2->3 ๐Ÿ˜ข

modern brook
#

Cause u do TC -> Revenge -> TC for 5 TC's then u have to instantly pop Shield wall while you close out the sticky keys popu p

#

its the only truly skill based rotation left in the game tbh

lusty grotto
#

shift modifiers clash with my shift + space bar for drums

#

so if i fucking jump...

distant crystal
#

i had to kill stickykeys years ago

lusty grotto
#

while usint shift +whatever

#

i'm not a smart man

distant crystal
#

i use shift and ctrl modifiers pretty extensively

lusty grotto
#

same

#

i dont use alt modifiers at all though

#

just shift and ctrl

distant crystal
#

but i'm pretty sure F is shockwave and shift-f is t-clap

#

~_~

lusty grotto
#

hmm

#

you should switch that one

tulip panther
#

only shift mods i have on warrior is 1 for inter 2 for stomp 3 for taunt and 4 for throw

lusty grotto
#

perfect swap

tulip panther
#

G is shockwave

distant crystal
#

yeah it'll just take me a year to get used to the swap

lusty grotto
#

doubtful :p

distant crystal
#

one of these days i'll go through and bring some sanity to my keybinds

lusty grotto
#

just run a m0 or LFR

modern brook
#

I use alt for stance changing

distant crystal
#

like, on my mage i never ran RoP for frost

modern brook
#

Alt 1 = stealth

distant crystal
#

so my RoP bind was cone of cold

modern brook
#

Alt 1-4 is druid forms

#

etc

#

shift ctrl for everything

tulip panther
#

thats neat for a druid imo

distant crystal
#

but now that i'm doing meme orb build that uses RoP for frost, i'm constantly cone of colding when i want RoP

oblique garnet
tulip panther
#

i only have2 forms bound anyways

oblique garnet

You cant really run out of binds

I'm also a giant brained human though

so is avatar, give or take with AM

lusty grotto

no

distant crystal

although yeah it's usually like 45sec avatars

warm plinth

Avatar is like 45-50 seconds

lusty grotto

avatar is 45 seconds

tulip panther

"ok sir"

maybe i just drop all my haste for crit
