Instead of upgrade/not upgrade, make the options "upgrade" and "Nerfclap uses this" and see what the results are

sand egret
#

just some random green is like "UPGRADE" and there's some person that's gonna be like "mah addon told me to!"

brisk ferry
#

lmao well that's basically what pawn is at this point

sand egret
#

those are the same people who drive into lakes because their GPS said so.

brisk ferry
#

#MichaelScott

sand egret
#

but actually.

brisk ferry
#

here's real prot discord question

#

what do when 2 twin babies won't stop crying, taking any and all advice at this time cause I fucking give up

warm plinth
#

You could add a "Sco's top ranked" option as well

brisk ferry
#

babies is loose term, they're 18 months

distant crystal
#

@brisk ferry thunderclap?

warm plinth
#

I mean, maybe they're just using Deafening Crash

brisk ferry
#

I'm trying to thunderclap, but they won't let me

sand egret
#

my parents always used Initimidating Shout.

distant crystal
#

lol

brisk ferry
#

I use that on my oldest, these 2 dgaf lol

sand egret
#

i dunno then

brisk ferry
#

good effort, appreciate the input

sand egret
#

pop your Last Stand then just pray and Ignore Pain until they're 18

echo granite
#

Hello guys can someone help me change marok's ignore pain wa, i want to show it only when ip up

warm plinth
#

How about Rallying Cry? Might help you survive through it at least.

distant crystal
#

i think there's a pretty contentious battle between the "let them cry it out" camp and "pick them up and soothe them any time they cry" camp

brisk ferry
#

oh I was always let em cry camp with oldest, but twins share a room, so 1 crying = 2 crying

sand egret
#

the viral properties of crying is fascinating

warm plinth
#

I hear egg cartons make for good soundproofing, fwiw @brisk ferry

sand egret
#

ask the partner for a tank-swap?

brisk ferry
warm plinth
#

lol

sand egret
#

"yeah I got too many stacks of Crying..."

brisk ferry
#

she wont let me put their cribs in the 2 seperate walk-in closets

#

lol

#

after 18 months, I want to try anything to get some sleep tbh

warm plinth
#

Are they identical?

brisk ferry
#

nah fraternal

warm plinth
#

Not relevant; just curious

brisk ferry
#

I can count the number of nights I got ~8 hours of sleep on 1 hand

sand egret
#

may I also suggest....ear plugs 😃

warm plinth
#

That's rough lol

#

In 18 months?

brisk ferry
#

yes

warm plinth
#

Good god

#

Undead warrior right here

brisk ferry
#

yeah sucks for sure, I just keep hoping it'll get better but approaching limit

warm plinth
#

Too bad Arcane Torrent doesn't silence anymore; you could race change

sand egret
#

it gets better on the sleep front

brisk ferry
#

always been BE warr so not even required race change lol

warm plinth
#

Oh okay lol

sand egret
#

doesn't mean it gets better

#

😄

brisk ferry
#

we were spoiled at 4 months my oldest was sleeping 12 hour nights

warm plinth
#

Just couldn't stop at 1 huh

#

Had to pop out two more

"Why....?"
"well...."

warm plinth

brisk ferry
#

#

warm plinth

sand egret
#

weary thorn
#

thanks, mine is a girl

#

brisk ferry
#

first one isn't too bad, you (hopefully) have a partner to take turns

weary thorn
#

my wife will be the tough love one

#

I'm too soft hearted

brisk ferry
#

hahahaha

sand egret
#

so you're more like the BrM of the duo

#

your wife is clearly the Prot War

brisk ferry
#

you might surprise yourself, when it comes to their safety you'll be stern for sure

weary thorn
#

oh yea, I don't doubt it

brisk ferry
#

idgaf what they're up to but if they're climbing up the fucking stairwell railing to jump off, then the prot warr comes out lol

weary thorn
#

and yes, my wife would be the TClapper of the two of us

sand egret

#

heroic leap

weary thorn
#

5'1" and nearly 100% uptime on avatar that little lady

sand egret
#

intimidating shout

brisk ferry
#

hahaha

sand egret
#

she's a vision of perfection!

warm plinth
#

Heroic Leap is what caused the situation in the first place

weary thorn
#

i'd agree with ya

sand egret
#

well them little Fury warriors are nuts!

warm plinth
#

lol

sand egret
#

always screaming and shit

warm plinth
#

I'm not sure I want kids yet. Probably should figure that out soon though lol. I like kids but it's a lot of responsibility.

brisk ferry
#

you'll notice your IP has a much higher cap

warm plinth
#

😂

#

Legion numbers on that shit

brisk ferry
#

I'm still unsure if I want kids lol

weary thorn
#

not sure that the GMs will allow that roll-back

sand egret
#

something something soulbound

warm plinth
#

Haha

brisk ferry
#

LOL

#

maybe one day they can all play outlaw rogues and I'll have my MDI comp deswind

weary thorn
#

Already told my wife I'm teaching our kids to play video games whenever their chosen sport isnt in season

brisk ferry
#

I think a lot of kids are more into video games now then even when we were kids, so should be pretty easy

#

though I'd rather my kids study then ignore finals for Lich King progress

warm plinth
#

"Hon if you don't interrupt that next heal you're grounded"

sand egret
#

yeah, a lot due to them just being exposed to stuff so early

brisk ferry
#

college finals* I should say

weary thorn
#

lol

sand egret
#

like i'm seeing tiny kids playing on tablets and shit

brisk ferry
#

yeah true, technology at early ages

weary thorn
#

I went off to college in BC and didnt play again until end of WoD

sand egret
#

so half of these interfaces are just second nature

brisk ferry
#

mine's been taking selfies since she was like 2

#

on my phone

#

which has a fucking passcode

sand egret
#

yeeep

#

keep an eye on that one...

#

that's a siphon your vodka and replace it with water kinda kid if I've heard of one

brisk ferry
#

I think most of the time I only have 1 eye open, but I will try lol

#

well she's mine, so it'll prolly be rum

#

but yes she's almost 3 and I arlready get those vibes

rapid jewel
#

rang 3 VoP minor is really only42 versatility or is that a tooltip error?

grand drum
#

Not an error, they ran out of ideas so they just slap versatility on something

sand egret
#

cuz it's such a fun stat

shy rapids
#

love how shit the azerite system is want to tank a +10 for my friends but dont want to spend like a 100k reforging all my traits

sand egret
#

you...dont...need to?

lusty grotto
#

wut

#

how much do you reforge

sand egret
#

you could literally do it traitless.

lusty grotto
#

thinking you're fury

mighty quartz
#

hey mighty warriors, I'm tanking mythic ashvane as prot, anyone have any good resources for specific tips for that

lusty grotto
#

do you reforge on a fight to fight basis?

#

from fury to fury?

#

if you do M+ 2 or 3 days a week after raids, the cost won't ever get to that

sand egret
#

cost aside, you can tank it totally fine in fury traits.

shy rapids
#

I reforge a lot from fury to arms for pvp and such but its dumb af that you will be gimped in traits

lusty grotto
#

that's your problem

#

get a pvp only azerite set

spiral ravine
#

Get a set for arms pvp problem solved

lusty grotto
#

and then a pve one for fury/prot

#

ya that's what i have

#

except for fury cause i dont play fury 😂

sand egret
#

if you want to tank a 10 for friends, I don't see the problem in being sub-optimal and saving 100k....

lusty grotto
#

or yeah blade is right

sand egret
#

not like you're going to get insta-gibbed without them.

lusty grotto
#

10s are easily done with just a good shield

#

(and a good 1 hander)

spiral ravine
#

Yeah at this point you should be just fine without prot traits in a 10 specially this week

shy rapids
#

never lucky with shields 😦 only have 400 ilvl

lusty grotto
#

rip

sick sentinel
#

rip

#

get prot friends

#

and shaman friends

spiral ravine
#

Reaching 100k on reforges tho, that's kinda crazy

sick sentinel
#

and tell them to go shield spec

lusty grotto
#

and paladin friends 😃

sick sentinel
#

prot includes 2 classes

lusty grotto
#

(say no to ret though)

#

resto/elem shammy, holy/prot paladin 👍

#

i hear nimchipadin is a cute belf that wants friends

#

a cute hpal belf

sand egret

lusty grotto

your face is toxic

sand egret
#

damn, first Customer Support, now me?

sand egret
#

Stewart would be disappointed

lusty grotto
#

oh shit that reminds me

#

i did a normal EP last week for reliquaries

#

and the other crafting shit

#

there was another prot warrior

#

UNDEAD prot warrior

#

he had stewart's twin

sand egret
#

ooo now that's an OG

lusty grotto
#

he also had a mariachi xmog

#

so i think stewart's twin is called Pedro

#

together they defeated the mighty sivara and 2 or 3 more bosses before they had to go their separate ways

#

fish killing fish

sand egret
#

i keep seeing your groups pop up...i may just ninja myself into it one of these days haha

#

👀

lusty grotto
#

hmm

#

hehe

#

fights are ez anyway

#

ashvane does make me fucking mad as fuck though because people dont understand how to raid size and remove bad dps

brisk ferry
#

if this is NA and y'all need a prot warr deswind

lusty grotto
#

do we look like Kaege or Late to you

#

EU too large, idk

lusty grotto

brisk ferry

I am often confused

blame lack of sleep

lusty grotto

if i was EU i would be spaniard

brisk ferry

so not NA not EU,, Oceanic?

oh I guess you could be Chinese or Korean

sand egret

'Rican

brisk ferry

Af or Am?

glacial sage

is there a % of haste that if I hit it I should no longer focus on getting more?

brisk ferry

nope

#

all the haste

glacial sage
#

thanks

brisk ferry
#

I'm running into a wall of content currently, warrior is chasing titanforges, but gearing any tank alt means neck bullshit

unborn island
#

blood rite or bloodsport? When your azerite be trolling

brisk ferry
#

blood rite is fine

shy rapids
#

how difficult is tanking a +10 Kings Rest this weeks affixes?

brisk ferry
#

this week is free

#

it's a push week for most

sick sentinel
#

teeming KR is just slow

unborn island
#

rip 3x bastion 😦

heavy belfry
#

Teeming only affects the last bridge on kr

solid star
#

hey

#

did they nerf pro warrior aggro or something ?

lusty grotto
#

no

brisk ferry
#

not that I've heard

solid star
#

the last 2 week i notice my agro on my warrior is soo poor that my melee ppl get mauled to death lol

#

during a mythic + and no matter what i do i seem to lose aggro

weary thorn
#

clap harder

lusty grotto
#

agro was actually increased last week

#

for all tanks

solid star
#

esp seeem to killing any melee

lusty grotto
#

with the number of minor/major essence slots

brisk ferry
#

cause melee have absurd aggro

#

big pumpers, floor pov

weary thorn
#

I've had zero issue with holding aggro on either prot or bdk

solid star
#

im 417 doing a +9 in shrine

lusty grotto
#

i havent had issues either

#

you're 417

#

you will lose vs 420-430s

weary thorn
#

aye that'll certainly not help

solid star
#

i see lol

brisk ferry
#

especially if the melee are DH blasting

#

if it's rogues, tell em to at least tricks

solid star
#

i mean i feel terrible lol hahaaha

brisk ferry
#

why?

#

they have threat meters, let em die

solid star
#

i ruined someone key because i couldnt get any aggro on that on second boss in shrine on a +9

weary thorn
#

tbf you are likely behind on ilvl compared to the avg m+ player

#

and with people having rank 3 lazer now, its not going to help you

distant crystal
#

just get an outlaw rogue in your group that trickses often

#

bonus points if they offset their tricks for when your avatar is down

solid star
#

with this tyrannical it isnt helping ;/

#

does shield block help with magic reduction?

distant crystal
#

no

grand drum
#

no

#

its common to lose aggro to dps specs when their VoP pops or they use big cd's

brisk ferry
#

after seeing the log of a BrM performing 1 actual attack in the first 9 seconds of an encounter, I'm now* pretty cautious when it comes to people not holding aggro

weary thorn
#

I don't think its common to lose aggro just because a dps spec pops perfection or a big cd, at least not for prot warriors

#

maybe for some tanks that do less damage

strong forum
#

just got rank 7 on radiance

#

im happy :))

weary thorn
#

grats

solid star
#

on the second boss in shrine hmmmm do i help with offsetting casting that gale force constantly we only 15 cooldown for interruupt. grats

brisk ferry
#

grats Nome

#

there will always be bigdick pumpers, that's why we have taunt

solid star
#

lol i swear even after i use taunt i would lose agro from the DH

young oasis
#

Azshara Font of Power good for us? My goal is max DPS

solid star
#

i have to use it twice to secure my aggro

brisk ferry
#

@young oasis sim it, can also check bloodmallet for trinkets

sick sentinel
#

it's not really a sim it question with font

distant crystal
#

do you wanna channel for 4 seconds every 2 minutes

#

as a tank

#

kek

brisk ferry
#

oh sorry I thought that was the trinket?

sick sentinel
#

because you have to take into account the time you lose before the pull

#

or how you have to plan your route according to it

distant crystal
#

can you even block/parry/dodge while channeling font?

sick sentinel
#

and sometimes it's not the easiest thing to channel on the boss because of mechanics and shit

red wedge
#

Only if the tooltip says you can.

solid star
#

what traits/ essesnce should i be using ? i guess i will have to wait to get my warrior up to 420's something before i think about doing another +9 on my tank.

red wedge
#

VoP Major, and Lucid Minor seems the most popular choices right now.

distant crystal
#

at least 1 DC

#

lots of BoMs

tawny maple
#

@solid star pins

distant crystal
#

VoP Lucid or some defensive you like + VoP

#

that too

sick sentinel
#

You just need to clap harder

distant crystal
#

sometimes you gotta clap softly

sick sentinel
#

Like, you shouldn't lose aggro

#

You're a warrior!

solid star
#

Im trying to figure it out why im losing it because last season i have no problem.

red wedge
#

If you were having no issues last season, but suddenly are now.. and are not doing things differently, it's probably the ilvl discrepancy that people mentioned earlier.

distant crystal
#

if dps are poppin off with essences and stuff

#

and your avatar is down

#

you're gonna have a bad time

#

esp w/ ilvl discrepancy

red wedge
#

Yea. I tell my group when my avatar is down on some pulls so they dont just go hog wild.

distant crystal
#

^^

red wedge
#

'cause the dh and rogue i play with just like to go balls to the wall every chance they get

distant crystal
#

with VoP and AM it should be up for most pulls but sometimes you gotta warn em

willow fractal
#

anyone have any tips geting threw phase 2 of Radiance Mythic...im getting chunked soooo hard and having to blow every cooldown and healpot i have to try and stay alive

sick sentinel
#

Don't use sb

#

Use only ip

#

And interrupt

#

And shockwave

weary thorn
#

coordinate interrupts, ip, sr

sick sentinel
#

And int shout

#

And pummel

sand egret
#

a few tips not mentioned in the guides @solid star :

  • for your earlier question, yes, you should be part of the interrupt rotation to prevent stacking of Gale on the 2nd boss in SotS
  • Taunt is your friend and it isn't just an "ooops sorry" button. It magnifies your threat during the window by a substantial amount
  • DPS have access to crazy essences now so you have to be more diligent about your distribution of damage. Specifically, not only targeting one mob (stuff like your auto-attacks all contribute to your threat) and spreading out your shield slams
  • Heroic Leap resets Taunt's cooldown. Use it in a Pinch or combo it to lock down two mobs for little effort.
willow fractal
#

o int shout works on them?

weary thorn
#

it'll int them, yea

#

demo shout as well for dr

solid star
#

thanks for the tips

sand egret
#

maybe sneaky value for Intimidating Presence on that fight?

#

🤔

red wedge
#

I didnt think taunt amplified threat anymore?

sand egret
#

totally does

red wedge
#

I thought it just put you at the top for 3s

sand egret
#

does that too

#

well what it does is 3 things:

#
  1. puts you at X+1 threat where X is the top dawg
red wedge
#

I 100% thought they removed the threat amplification from taunt during some major release. I swear I read something about it, and people were complaining and worried about tanks

solid star
#

Avatar, thunderclap, shield slam, thunderclap

sand egret
#
  1. forces them to attack you regardless of who is current top threat
grand drum
#

TIL leap resets taunt

sand egret
#

and 3) increases your threat to that target for the duration

#

which is why

#

taunt + heroic throw

#

is like 10x a threat multiplier

distant crystal
#

does heroic through + taunt work

#

if you taunt while it's in the air

sand egret
#

yep

distant crystal
#

or have i been doing it backkwards

#

coo

sand egret
#

that's the pull move

#

if your dps is going to go ham on pull and you can't let it move

#

for mechanical reasons

#

but yeah, lesser known feature is that you can use Taunt on a target already attacking you to give you a huge burst of threat

#

esp useful if you need to fuck off for some reason and can't dps

brisk ferry
#

they removed the threat multiplier from the tooltip a while back, but it still amplifies your threat gen

sick sentinel
#

Throw+taunt charge slam clap

sand egret
#

an example is that fat boi on the bridge in FH. I basically run the whole bridge and let my dps just burn it while I can /dance at the end

#

this is mostlyy because I can taunt + HThrow all the way down get build a massive threat lead

solid star
#

so heroic throw and taunt should be good enought to secure the threat right ?

sand egret
#

depends, but it's very good as an opener on ST as Kaege mentioned above

#

sometimes if im going into a pack I'll HT the high priority target as I go in to make sure it sticks

warm plinth
#

Heroic Throw is only one global. You usually have 2-3 globals for taunt so you should use all of them if possible.

sand egret
#

taunt another to give it the buff so my aoe makes that fucker stick, then tab and SS the third, etc.

distant crystal
#

the taunt trickery is helpful on the jump but another big thing is just try to pump big dps

#

just think like a melee dps that also gets hit and try your best to top the meters :p

#

and nobody ever complained about tanks using dps potions in keys if you can afford em

solid star
#

how come we shouldnt use ignore pain during last stand ?

warm plinth
#

Uh that’s not a thing

distant crystal
#

you shouldn't use shieldblock during it

solid star
#

i mean it said only block melee

distant crystal
#

IP is fine

#

if you need some extra mit

solid star
#

is 6 percent vers or should i go higher ?

warm plinth
#

Doesn’t matter

red wedge
#

vers doesn't really matter fro prot warrior

distant crystal
#

check out the pins but just get your highest ilvl mostly

red wedge
#

ilvl > all. haste if equal ilvl

analog swift
#

for gem slots

solid star
#

if that case i can wear all my fury gear lol

analog swift
#

we just weighing total stats yeh?

red wedge
#

In some cases, I actually prefer crit.. but that's going into meme territory, depending on what you actually are doing.

warm plinth
#

Stat rating, stat percentage, none of that matters. Use your highest ilevel gear and whatever stats you end up with are fine. If you have the luxury of choosing between two items of the same ilevel, choose the one with more haste.

analog swift
#

440 belt with socket vs. 450 belt

#

hm

red wedge
#

450 belt, imo.

solid star
#

really ? so it doesnt matter if the belt has other abilities link to it ?

#

like just raw stats?

red wedge
#

In almost every situation, no. It does not matter.

warm plinth
#

Most item use effects (other than trinkets) aren't worth sacrificing anything for.

distant crystal
#

there's an argument for crit over haste in keys but

#

it's not a luxury most people have of being able to pick

red wedge
#

Yea. Especially this early in the season, people are still gearing.

#

So you want highest ilvl until you have a bunch of equal ilvl pieces to choose from

distant crystal
#

parrying deadly things like the KR bleed is fun

warm plinth
#

#DwarfMasterRace

distant crystal
#

or that barrel through boss's thing

#

@warm plinth trooo

warm plinth
#

Just get a DH to dodge it for you!

#

Ez game

robust glade
#

Ohhh is Parry why I sometimes take no damage from smack in KR?

solid star
#

so the rune on the second boss in ST it is deadly to stand it ?

distant crystal
warm plinth
#

Yeah, you can parry the attack that applies the bleed

#

And Debilitating Backhand on that boss

#

That's an...interesting transmog.

distant crystal
#

she's mogless :p

warm plinth
#

i figured lol.

#

I actually like that helm a lot; just not sure if I could ever put it with something that didn't look ridiculous.

distant crystal
#

yeah i messed around trying to make a mog around it

warm plinth
distant crystal
#

it doesn't really go well with the other pieces from those dungeons, maybe it's just a femdorf thing

warm plinth
#

The belt needs to be mogged lol; just got it from an emissary

solid star
#

is there any addon to track thread meters ?

distant crystal
#

omen is still a thing

#

i think

stark lance
#

What are the ideal trinkets for m+? Top Warrior runs vial + ashvane but curious to see what others think

brisk ferry
#

I've rezan+ vial. Will replace vial with gore crusted butchers block if it'll ever drop

#

As much as I hate alli, That looks pretty great ghash

stark lance
#

Is gore crusted any good? or just the str

#

ive been running the mechagon trinket with the red haste punchcard and its pretty decent

distant crystal
#

it's real nice

#

dmg, parry, str

stark lance
#

So I have 400 gore crusted, 415 vial and mechagon trinket which combo would you run?

sick sentinel
#

vial is not as good as you think it is

#

vial+mecha

stark lance
#

I dunno I think its really good

#

on use it gives me 6% parry

sick sentinel
#

yes for 3 seconds

stark lance
#
  • crazy damage
sick sentinel
#

then 5% for 3 seconds

#

then 4% for 3 seconds

prisma crane
#

@solid star you can use Omen, it works pretty well. Though, unless your OT is shit, it's rarely an issue and name plates that change colors based on threat work extremely well and is sufficient enough

sick sentinel
#

if macro it with your avatar, you spend those first powerful seconds on using avatar and demo shout

solid star
#

this is my character

sick sentinel
#

sure what's up

solid star
#

well i mainly use it for mythic plus tanking

distant crystal
#

yeah i think vial should be a solo bind

#

or like a modifier clap bind

#

to use after you get into avatar

solid star
#

i havent been using that

prisma crane
#

i hate binding trinkets into stuff

sick sentinel
#

actually using a modifier on my avatar bind for trinket sounds cool

prisma crane
#

or any abilities into anything for that matter

#

more control is nice

solid star
#

i been using that gore chopping block or something

sick sentinel
#

yes krotos

#

but you're a good player

distant crystal
#

eh sometimes it's just perfect

prisma crane
#

well, to be fair, i'm sure that i forget to use some of my stuff because it's not bound, but it's good habits

distant crystal
#

like my 2 min haste use trinket bound into lucid on fire mage

#

is ideal

sick sentinel
#

make a weak aura for what you need to remember

solid star
#

i mainly play fury

prisma crane
#

also, yea, at least for warrior, with anger management, things dont always line up

#

yea it's what i do now

sick sentinel
#

the thing is, waat

#

combustion is off the gcd

prisma crane
#

also that

distant crystal
#

lucid is not

#

and having the haste while i drop RoP and get the party started works perfectly

prisma crane
#

wtb DS off the GCD, pst with offers

solid star
#

I dont like the GCD it anoying for like marcos

sick sentinel
#

but you can press lucid and flame strike

#

which is also off the gcd

#

and also it is a haste trinket that makes your lucid gcd go faster

#

not exactly wasted then

distant crystal
#

yeah like i said sometimes it's suboptimal

#

but sometimes it's legit perfect to bind it in

#

it was perfect a lot more often when dps cooldowns were off gcd

sand egret
#

counter-point: part of the GCD's value is to prevent you from just macro'ing your character to a few buttons 😃

sick sentinel
#

most if the time it's sub-optimal but there are exceptions*

distant crystal
#

tomato tomahto

solid star
#

lol but dont we like burst dmg ?

sick sentinel
#

you don't get it

#

instead of macroing avatar (20sec cd) with the 18 sec trinket

#

you press avatar, then clap then demo shout then you activate trinket and you clap again

distant crystal
#

what i like about binding trinkets into things is you don't waste that little bit of time of your fingers moving from one bind to the next

#

and less to mess up :p

sand egret
#

user-error is prob the leading use for macros haha

distant crystal
#

but you usually have to do a modifier bind to the dmg ability that you'd be using first in your dps cooldown burn

sick sentinel
#

so you don't waste duration of the trinket on avatars and demo shouts gcd

sand egret
#

I do bind my Blood Fury to any 2 min cooldown for that reason

distant crystal
#

and then there's the bear tank streamer that binds mangle + ironfur

sand egret
#

uh

distant crystal
#

who shall remain nameless

sand egret
#

WAT

sick sentinel
#

LMAO

humble oar
#

does reckless flurry work on prot?

distant crystal
#

ye

sand egret
#

i didn't think i'd be that offended by that thought

distant crystal
#

the dmg paart obv

humble oar
#

ty

sand egret
#

but that's like macro'ing IP to TClap

distant crystal
#

well i have heard of people binding shield slam and shield block

sand egret
#

that's also a yikes haha

sick sentinel
#

that's not a good idea

distant crystal
#

but that's worse tbh cause you have limited charges

#

at least ironfur is quasi spammable

prisma crane
#

and timing change from fight to fight

sand egret
#

yeah, but half the point of tanking as a bear is being able to pool rage to burst out to the armor cap when you need it

distant crystal
#

yeah

solid star
#

that character didnt shoow my tanking set

distant crystal
#

popping ironfur when you mangle a mob that's in a 5sec stun

#

not optimal

sand egret
#

yeahh....

#

lol

solid star
#

lol

sand egret
#

bet his healers were like "man bears are squishy as shit"

solid star
#

yeah

sand egret
#

just like back in 8.0 when you'd have warriors with 20% SB effective uptime rolling through keys giving us a bad name =/

#

just spammin IP

solid star
#

i always do poor dmg on thunderclap i guess im guilty not always using avatar when it is up i tried

sand egret
#

if you're playing Prot, you're basically playing a Shadow Priest with a Shield

#

you have your In-Avatar windows and Out-Avatar windows

#

your goal is to pump hard enough to get more IN time than Out, via Anger Management

#

Love that button

#

cherish it

prisma crane
#

i've noticed a somewhat rookie mistake is to underutilize SS as well, that's missed ST damage as well as rage gen

#

people just go ham with TC

sand egret
#

yeah, it's a large amount of rage

#

esp neglecting it in ST

#

err

#

multi-target

prisma crane
#

yea i only use it in aoe if im low on rage, but it does happen, gotta throw one in to give more revenges

#

that or if there's a priority target in the group

sand egret
#

it helps now due to the high damage it provides. allows you to cycle through and slap targets to keep up aggro between TClap casts

#

sometimes revenge just doesn't cut it

prisma crane
#

oh i hit tab all day long

sand egret
#

yeah, that's a huge mistake i see with tanks

#

staying on one target and relying on cleave to keep the rest

prisma crane
#

im just still upset that even though they somewhat fixed tab, it's still shit compared to what it was in MoP

sand egret
#

can't say i remember it that clearly from MoP, but it's not too bad in its current iteration

prisma crane
#

well i just remember that during WoD it got real bad

distant crystal
#

tab dotting seems a lot better than tab taunting :p

sand egret
#

i prefer "tab slammin'"

distant crystal
#

it always seems to tab to the mob i haven't dotted yet but it never seems to tab to the mob i lost aggro on

prisma crane
#

which was also when mob positioning turned into the biggest chore in the world

#

oh this guy with a frontal cone is perfectly set up facing a wall, oh look now he decided to rotate around you

sand egret
#

if you run with a particularly problematic dps, you could always just ToT macro them 😃

prisma crane
#

meanwhile I NEVER MOVED

sand egret
#

yeah WoD they decided to mess with mob targeting and in the process caused them to update wayy too often

#

causing tons of micro adjustments so next thing ya know they're off in Kansas

#

despite having not moved

prisma crane
#

it's like they added 4 decimal places to their XY coordinates instead of just the 1 additional they could have used

sand egret
#

big fatties still do it sometimes

#

but the benefit is that we can use that to also move ranged auto-attackers

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

prisma crane
#

i thnk it's also the new "AI" that tries to spread out, so i get it in large groups, but when it's one mob i get annoyed

sand egret
#

flocking ai at it's finest

#

blame Starcraft for that one

rapid jewel
#

445 sivara vs 435 zaqul stays zaqul right?

ionic fern
#

🤔

#

Are you talking weapons?

distant crystal
#

helms i guess

woven burrow
#

What do you think of devastator ? i really liked it on legion

rapid jewel
#

chest, sry

distant crystal
#

doh wrong loot spec lol

ionic fern
#

I'd take the 445 @rapid jewel you can sim for DPS.

#

@woven burrow it's main use as of now is only for ST raid DPS.

verbal crane
#

How is lingering sporepods fo m+?

#

Dumpster tier?

sand egret
#

helps inflate your bag ilvl so you can get invited into more M+ groups?

verbal crane
#

its that bad?

finite lintel
#

bois bloodthirsty urchin and edicts of the faithless is good combo?

#

for def

lusty grotto
#

sure

#

shitpods is a free expulsom or some gold

sand egret
#

@verbal crane yep, it's pretty bad for two reasons:

  1. its values are just poor. Low damage on the proc and the healing isnt' anything to write home about considering the proc rate
  2. It's an RNG healing proc, so even if you do proc it...it may be right after your healer just topped you off, when you're full, etc.

if you have a 430 ilvl 2h sword can you trade a 430 ilvl 1h sword if you dont have one that high? 🤔

winged grail
#

@sand egret Interesting, for me it sims higher than same ilvl vial or -5ilvl rezan. And the HPS is not bad either - I ran a dungon with it and only 1/3 was overhealing - it healed me for almost 1/3 of my ignore pain values

celest nimbus
#

Hey, I have salvaged mekacycle shielding at 420 with a socket, is it better then my 420 disc of indomitable will with a socket? I lose 58 haste and 6 mastery with the swap to the mekacycle for in turn the equip effect.

warm plinth

No it's not better.

Dream's End

warm plinth
#

I'd probably use dream's end for ST but idk if it's worth it in like M+ since you aren't going to stack it up as much.

barrier did 1600 DPS on myth radiance, for me (just for your info)

marsh kindle
#

hy guys what 2 essense is the best now for prot warrior ? 😄

rapid jewel
#

depends: Dmg its crucible major and barrier rang 3 minor

warm plinth
#

So has anyone confirmed 100% that hertz locker has to be done after R3 is obtained? Curious if that GM ended up being correct.

rapid jewel
#

in raid that is

marsh kindle
#

and for m+ ?

rapid jewel
#

VoP and what you like, most go with lucid as minor and barrier in magic heavy dungeons

sick sentinel
#

Dunno about this essence.... Check icyveins guide and simm it

hardy holly

what trinket do you guys think is the strongest for aoe dps?

#

i am trying to get my hands on inkpod but have been unlucky

tranquil sand
opaque shuttle
chrome falcon
#

secrets of the deep is really good

#

better than IF

sick sentinel
#

at this point you go with ilvl

chrome falcon
#

oh holy shit i didn't even see that 25 ilvl difference

#

very easily wear the 445, and swap IF for secrets of the deep

#

unless the ilvl scaling is trash and the 445 is bad, but i have found that trait insane on lower ilvl pieces

opaque shuttle
#

Ok ok ty

sand egret
#

Im not a fan of “move here to collect this thing for buffs” mechanics, esp as a tank.

marble cipher
#

CR or IF for M+?

#

(don't have any of either yet if that matters)

lusty grotto
#

IF

marble cipher
#

kk, thanks, was leaning towards IF, CR gives more sim dps though, but, guess IF is a lot more valuable as defensive compared to CR

if you have crits

it can do like 250k

sand egret
#

yummm

#

imma fuck wit this

stuck crown
#

better than haste?

#

1,231 haste for 12 secs

lusty grotto
#

what?

#

cyclotronic is better ST dps than haste yes

sick sentinel
#

I wouldn't use it though

prisma crane
#

use it, big balls or no balls

#

easy in raids anyways, can just use when OT

sick sentinel
#

if i was revered with mechagon i would use it

#

easy damage xd

prisma crane
#

yea it's total idiot proof ST dmg buff

sand egret
#

excuse me.

#

the correct term is "Bladesong Ready"

oblique garnet
#

Its not idiot proof because you have to stop using other abilities

sand egret
#

naw

#

it's not really because you have to stop using other abilities

exotic spoke
#

And you can't block while you're using it

#

So your damage in increases if you're not careful

sand egret
#

good thing I don't block

#

😃

lusty grotto
#

the fuck outta hear you dirty bear

knotty stone
#

so is devestator > booming voice in raid atm?

sand egret
#

all you Nim!

knotty stone
#

or is it only at a certain haste %

verbal crane
#

Does iron fortress lose significant value if you are over soft cap block for m+?

lusty grotto
#

no

sick sentinel
#

There isn't any softcap

lusty grotto
#

any amount you contribute to regular blocks is benefitial, there is no such thing as a "cap"

#

stop watching whatever his name is

sick sentinel

That guy

#

He doesn't know about gearing

lusty grotto
#

yes streamer_dude

verbal crane
#

I just read the wowhead guide, that misinformation?

lusty grotto
#

dont read the wowhead guide

#

read the icy veins one

knotty stone
#

anything on my question?

verbal crane
#

Thanks!

knotty stone
#

guides say booming, logs say devestator

lusty grotto
#

there is no correlation between haste and devAstator

#

and devAstator is only used for ST damage purposes

knotty stone
#

wouldnt it be more procs of shield slam?

prisma crane
#

deva is better for pure ST, and barely

lusty grotto
#

only za'qul's axe does that for you

prisma crane
#

so most often safer to just stick with BV

undone sun
#

Procs are still random, unreliable. Not useable defensively

To expand, you sacrifice survivability to get dps. Whether or not you can afford to or should do that is completely up to you

upper spoke
#

Quick navigation v Force Multiplier. ~430 ilvl weapon / prot warrior

lucid heron
#

any use for the Azshara trinket for tanking?

rapid jewel
#

you can use it in raids pre swap to buff your dmg, armor and IP

#

@upper spoke low haste = nav, good haste = force.

#

devastator is defensive slightly below BV. This strongly depends on your Boss uptime too. A log comparison I did on Mythic Radiance between these two. Fight duration ~ 6:30, throwed out massive outliners (two low values for BV, one for Devastator)

scenic moth
#

Considering how low some of those BV values are, the BV data is likely skewed by suboptimal play.

#

Since BV is a consistent rage value, the totals for BV should be weighted on the number of DS casts (assuming fight times are exactly the same).

lusty grotto
#

dont start with him

#

its his own log data

#

believe me we've had this discussion with him before

sick sentinel

I do not and will not understand how dps have trouble with decrees

dim blaze

Then again it seems dps have trouble breathing/thinking at times

warm plinth
#

Trouble in what way?

dim blaze
#

they can't figure out how to stack/not stack and soak

neat lagoon
#

has anyone seen the dungeon beta fight style on raidbots sim? I am wondering what it is actually simming because my prot war simmed like just over 28k. It is supposed to be like a dungeon type sim?

warm plinth
#

It's supposed to mimic a piece of a dungeon. It's like several trash packs followed by a boss at the end

neat lagoon
#

Ah I see. So sad that I have gotten pieces of gear the last couple days that are 10-15 ilvl higher but no haste. One did have a socket though. Luckily I was at 1700 haste without the Frey bonus so I guess losing some for more crit isn't that bad

exotic spoke

I mean - id like to get item level upgrades of 10-15

I’d use that in a heart beat

Ive got the Benthic Bracers with the Pufferfish with a socket. Should I upgrade them for raiding or keep on fishing for the ones that do Frost Damage ?

orchid token
#

i would just upgrade them

lusty grotto

you should replace them as soon as you get higher ilvl

orchid token
#

the gap between the equip effects isn't significant and you could wste hundreds of pearls trying to roll a socketed frost pair

#

?? @lusty grotto wat

#

a pair of 425 socketed benthics are irreplaceable by any unsocketed bracers

lusty grotto

for dps

orchid token

yeah

and that should really be the only concern

for bracers

No worries, tho keep in mind that Nimchip has hacked this information into warcraftlogs and they are not truely real logs. We all know that he is purely a LFR-tank.

neat lagoon
#

woah woah wait. now I have seen people using Devastator a lot more, especially with higher haste BUT wtf is this Reckless Flurry trait as a prot warrior?

#

I thought it was for Fury only to have melee attacks decrease Reck CD? What does it for for Prot?

lusty grotto
#

i dont know im using my highest ilvl

#

i honestly don't care about stats at this point

#

maybe when im full 445s

#

you don't use devastator without RF

#

its eh without it

neat lagoon
#

but how does it effect protection?

lusty grotto
#

it works with devastator

cursive osprey
#

it adds damage to melee attacks AND lowers reck...so the first paRT STILL WORKS AS PROT

#

holy caps

lusty grotto
#

was me that discovered it ask @undone sun

#

last season 😉

undone sun
#

you expect too much from my memory

neat lagoon

ohhhhh I see. you would not recommend running this type of build for anything other than a single target boss?

undone sun
#

yup

lusty grotto
#

damn it thyme

#

😢

undone sun
#

i mean, i'd weigh a good bet it was you

lusty grotto
#

its an ST build yes

#

it works in TEP because most bosses are in fact ST encounters

mystic whale
#

is Arcane Heart ooookay ?

lusty grotto
#

it worked in BoD on jaina for example

neat lagoon
#

wow, I will definitely give it a try next week or maybe on normal since I have done the first 4 on heroic earlier this morning in a pug.

mystic whale
#

i have the shitty choice between Callous Reprisal and Arcane Heart

neat lagoon
#

@lusty grotto I cannot see from my work server, but what essence gives you the Null Barrier?

#

Because I am just using Vision and Memory for basically anything I tank. I figured they are both generic and solid essences that provide passive DPS and Healing

lusty grotto
#

nullification dynamo r3

neat lagoon
#

okay I know I have that. Can you kinda explain how it does so much damage in a patchwerk type encounter like the first 3

lusty grotto
#

i use VoP and lucid for M+

cursive osprey
#

exalted with rusties

proper seal
#

will test null dynamo minor r3 in some m+, seems okayish. Lucid was kinda meh

lusty grotto
#

and change lucid for null on select instances like shrine/kr

cursive osprey
#

absorbs magic damage....the explodes shadow damage

lusty grotto
#

null isn't worth it on other dungeons

neat lagoon
#

okay so only something that is heavy magic

lusty grotto
#

those are the two you get trucked hard by magic dmg

#

and to be honest

proper seal
#

CoF minor for tyrannical weeks on higher keys is best dps choice yeah?

lusty grotto
#

it could work yeah

neat lagoon
#

so Null Barrier, that is an on use right?

lusty grotto
#

no

#

well yes

proper seal
#

I wouldnt ever use null barrier major tbh

lusty grotto
#

but im not using it as a major

cursive osprey
#

you can run r3 flame and r3 null minor on all till orgozoa basically...then you would swap back to vision and memory

neat lagoon
#

oh okay, so minor it just has a absorb and explosion every so often than?

lusty grotto
cursive osprey
#

you can just go to warcraft logs and select only prot warriors and see what people run...hell dudes running devastator without reck trait still top 10 warriors

neat lagoon
#

oh nice nice. so for like Shivara, I am assuming to get the most DPS out of it you will want to tank the boss as much as you can to constantly keep popping it due to the frost / nature DoT stacking up

lusty grotto
#

i honestly didn't cheese, but i suppose you could do it

cursive osprey
#

i mean if you have a stack of toxic or frost you are taking damage it will absorb so tanking or not

neat lagoon
#

well I mean I am 430-432 equipped and I feel like I can let her stack up as high as hell on me. Does't hurt much at all

cursive osprey
#

and then on like ashvane just soak a bubble...on mythic 1 is fine for whole fight on heroic just soak when debuff falls off and its uptime is 100%

lusty grotto
#

🤷

#

its going off on soaks regardless

neat lagoon
#

good convo here fellas. definitely going to try out Null this week on a KR since I havent even ran one this season lol

cursive osprey
#

but if you have a stack on mythic its for 20 min...so you are set and if there is a lapse in soaking you will pop it regardless

proper seal
#

run KR for that sweet geti for your off specs :>

lusty grotto
#

heh

neat lagoon
#

yeah I have been trying. I was using a 410 Polearm with no strength from Crucible and a 400 Mechanic Arm from MOTHER lol

finally bonus rolled the mace from Radiance today

#

why be fury when you can be prot

neat lagoon
#

well prot is the master spec

#

I was trying Arms but it felt like I was getting the same (or a tad lower) numbers compared to Fury and doing a hell of a lot more work

arms is trash

arms is only good for 3s rn sadly

i cant play it because i fucking hate fury

fury gameplay is kinda meh imo

nothing hard about it or no thinking

#

True @potent anvil

lusty grotto
#

😂

honest frigate
#

Rogue definitely not one trick pony

#

They’re the best melee in m+ no question about it

neat lagoon
#

I never see an outlaw rogue doing much of anything on a tyrannical week

#

boss damage drops off

honest frigate
#

You’ve never seen a good one then. Check out top rogues

lusty grotto
#

outlaw?!

#

what is this s2?

proper seal
#

rogues can do everything except dispel for M+ so who needs other melees? except a monk for that sweet debuff but we arent MDI players anyway

honest frigate
#

Quick about your wits still can provide a lot of st boss dps

neat lagoon
#

I mean a rogue / unholy dk combo is god

lusty grotto
#

im making jokes 😦

#

but yeah im perma making nimchy assass

neat lagoon
#

i love watching MDI and Method just rolling through half the dungeons trash with an outlaw and a unholy dk with a prot warrior

lusty grotto
#

that's a no joke

proper seal
#

unholy needs a huge amount of trash like ML to be very effective tho

neat lagoon
#

prolly ending the entire dungeon with like 75k dps overall

lusty grotto
#

unholy won't do squat this season

proper seal
#

otherwise a 2nd shroud or smth is usually better

neat lagoon
#

I have not seen the changes they made to Unholy

#

but I have heard frost is stepping it up?

lusty grotto
#

im not gonna lie, i haven't grouped with a dk since s1

wise heart
#

on a basic tank swap raid boss fight, what % of blocked hits is acceptable?

lusty grotto
#

as close to 100% as possible

#

anything below 60% is rip

#

you should be able to be above 70% fairly easily

wise heart
#

ayt, thanks!

proper seal
#

shieldblock + laststand = easy blocks anyway

quiet crane
#

The UH I’ve seen fucking pumps

#

Even with the smaller pullsizes

#

Fair granted they’ve been optimised but most classes can/do once they are

lusty grotto
#

perhaps, but not as much as other classes, their output is limited

#

the numbers you saw at last MDI were a product of the size of the pulls

quiet crane
#

Yeah I’m aware of how their quadratic scaling works

#

Or however you say that stupid word

neat lagoon
#

yeah but you have to take into consideration if the tank is playing purely offensive? I am assuming he is wondering about it because the tank might be having survival issues so yea he should be close to 100

lusty grotto
#

its the same way with us

#

the bigger the pull

#

the bigger our claps will clap

quiet crane
#

No we have a cut off at 20

lusty grotto
#

ahhh shit yeah you're right

quiet crane
#

Last I checked unholy don’t.

lusty grotto
#

i completely forgot about that

quiet crane
#

Which is why they were able to go to legit a mil on one pull I saw

proper seal
#

unholy has no aoe cap on popping the wounds afaik so yeah

potent anvil
#

Wait, my name is still benchwind yet I'm raiding prog 😞

quiet crane
#

Noice 😂

lusty grotto
#

benchwind pls

quiet crane
#

Need to change the big D to B

lusty grotto
#

Denchwind?

#

😂

undone sun
#

quiet crane
#

Rip I read that wrong

undone sun
#

always a bench

quiet crane
#

Fml

#

😂

lusty grotto
#

shots fired

quiet crane
#

Lmao

lusty grotto
#

here you go benchwind 🗞 hit the bear

undone sun
#

🙈

quiet crane
#

Use your cans scare it away

neat lagoon
#

does anyone know how effective Iron Fortress is? like if someone stacked it up do we think it would pull solid numbers on large melee pulls?

lusty grotto
#

no

neat lagoon
#

I am just wondering because I like the "thorns" type abilites

lusty grotto
#

IF is taken defensively, it can't compete aoe wise with other traits

neat lagoon
#

I figured

lusty grotto
#

in dps

cerulean tusk
#

Sure - do it, and bring a druid with the thorns talent. Why not? Sounds like silly fun to me ;3

quiet crane
#

We arnt barbs from D3

#

No invoker plays here at least not yet blizz likes ripping off and recycling their other games

#

But then again that’s all MMOs have ever done

neat lagoon
#

I have seen some prot warriors using 3 deafening? Is it worth taking 3 of them for the extra damage since the duration cannot be increased? or is 3x BoM still better?

grim prawn
#

a lot of people suggested not to go into benthic azgear but i ended up getting like bis traits and took it to 420 but taking it to 435 is fucknig 350 pearls

quiet crane
#

You can get both 3dc and 3bom

#

But in terms of the both bom is better by gajillions after first DC

neat lagoon
#

yeah finding some azerite pieces that will allow 3 stacks of each would be a little challenging to get a ahold of

#

or at least of an item level worth wearing, but that would be sick. unstoppable in all aspects!

upbeat sage
#

oof a 445 chest without bastion or a 420 with 😦

lusty grotto
#

welcome to everybody's world

#

except the lucky ones

upbeat sage
#

never lucky >:

cerulean tusk
#

Wouldn't the raw strength, armor and stamina have value? Also, presume you can chose loyal to the end on that gearpice - so masteryvalue wont be too different. I don't know, just dont want the 445 to be wasted 😦

neat lagoon
#

445 always

lusty grotto
#

445 always yeah

neat lagoon
#

25 item levels higher? yeah no question

lusty grotto
#

im using my bom-less piece

#

for sure

neat lagoon
#

tbh even if it was a 415 vs a 430 i would still say 430

astral halo
#

how many ilvls is bastion of might worth?

warm plinth
#

None, officially, though if you are going from say, a 430 piece with good traits and you get a 445 piece with trash all around, it's probably worth using the 430.

astral halo
#

Yeah, 420 to 430 trash all around

#

it does have bloodsport so i mean

#

lose bastion...gain blood sport and one random and 10 ilvl

For teeming motherlode how valuable would Aegis lvl 3 be? Over Level 3 lucid minor? Or is the rage refund just to good

cloud rose
#

I haven't really used Aegis, but I'd say the vers buff and the healing is pretty weak compared to more rage gen. And the major is just another flat damage reduction CD. Between the two I'd always choose Lucid, in minor or major.

#

If you've got Vision of Perfection r2 you'll be in for a treat

#

Especially with the Bastion of Might azerite trait

Tfw no longer have any BoM traits pepsihands
