RNG blows sometimes

warm plinth
lusty grotto
IMO!
lusty grotto
cause i say so
sand egret
ya know what blows, being in resto spec by accident and getting a wf’d weapon
lusty grotto
crit haste shield
warm plinth
Yeah I know it's the "best" one stat-wise, but I have a 395 so I couldn't care less what I get XD
Just give me a fucking shield game
warm plinth
I don't wanna do ML this week though 😭
lusty grotto
im kidding pls dont try this at home
lusty grotto
this is bad advice, ignore Nimchip
warm plinth
Couldn't you have just said the last part?
lusty grotto
meme-ing
warm plinth
😏
warm plinth
I knew you were gonna fucking do that 😂
dreamy epoch
Do you tyink this new weapon is worth usiung over a socketed one just for the extra 10% CD in mythic keys?
lusty grotto
@modern brook do you know what would be sweet
if @warm plinth ever joined us for a key
warm plinth
Idk, I don't have -10/-10 vision to see it
lusty grotto
windows key + shift + s please
lusty grotto
im going blind
warm plinth
F
warm plinth
Need to get those douchey gamer glasses to filter out the blue light man
I can't either, unless I click on it lol
And then I can sorta make out what they are
lusty grotto
sure thing, i'll use them with my crocs
lusty grotto
i suppose they are same ilvl?
warm plinth
Yeah
warm plinth
Yeah, the snipping tool is wonderful
warm plinth
And it makes us not have to go blind trying to see your picture
sand egret
ngl, I use those glasses for work Ghash
lusty grotto
just windows key + shift + s
warm plinth
I mean, the principle of them is awesome. They're still douchey though.
sand egret
they do wonders for my eyes
warm plinth
Yeah, my girlfriend actually has a condition that's caused by looking at computer screens too much. Her eyes don't adjust focus properly so when she looks at things far away, her eyes are still trying to focus close-up
lusty grotto
hmm
sand egret
yeah, my artists are mole rats so its always dark as shit
lusty grotto
ok but that's a legit condition
sand egret
after about a year my eyes would really hurt
warm plinth
Yeah, but those glasses prevent that condition because it's caused by the light that monitors/phone screens give off
So while they are douchey, they have a valid purpose
warm plinth
You don't need them for phones much anymore; most modern phones have blue light filters built in
tender burrow
i need a discord poll. who got the protection artifact skin after BFA, this is my 5th week trying and i am doing something wrong?
or just that unlucky
lusty grotto
nimchip list of things that will never be used or tried:
- Crocs
- Blue lens douchey glasses
- urethral catheters
exotic spoke
The hidden one from the cave Brummie?
warm plinth
It took me like 2 months or some shit and that was in Legion
tender burrow
YEa
exotic spoke
Yeah it’s just RNG. Good luck
sand egret
yeah tbh i got lucky
lusty grotto
yeah i didn't get it on bfa, i got it in legion
tender burrow
ok have to be protection speced correct?
sick sentinel
Why no catheter? Gamers don’t stand up to pee
lusty grotto
so i can't answer that question
tender burrow
i did go in once as fury and i was like crap
lusty grotto
im automatically disqualified
sand egret
catheters aint bad, its taking them out that is the worst
lusty grotto
Hawgz, fuck inserting things inside your urethra
warm plinth
I mean, you could just go back out and go back in as prot; the quest wouldn't flag at all if you weren't prot (if that even matters). As far as I know, you can get the flag as any spec but have to be prot to loot it though
tender burrow
P.s this is one of the nicest class discords around. pat on the back!
sick sentinel
Feels good
lusty grotto
NEGATIVE
sick sentinel
Plus then I can play 100 hours straight of wow
warm plinth
That's only because Nim is distracted talking about catheters (wtf?)
sick sentinel
The ultimate self loathing
lusty grotto
ill bite the nurse that tries that
warm plinth
He's too busy to be toxic to you
lusty grotto
legit bite them
sick sentinel
You ain’t ever had an oil change?
tender burrow
just get the wow raid bucket, all sorted no need to pipes down the dick
lusty grotto
the things they put on your pp to pee
in the hospital
there are ones that go inside
warm plinth
I think this is too off-topic and/or nsfw even for #protection
lusty grotto
and ones that go outside
lusty grotto
nimchip list of things to never try include the ones that go inside
and ill bite any nurse that tries to put that in
ill fight for my life
sick sentinel
What if they knock you out
lusty grotto
take it out
warm plinth
Anyway. @tender burrow I hope you get it soon!
lusty grotto
😬
sick sentinel
So is it the pain of the catheter or the violation of someone else putting it in that upsets you
warm plinth
Also Nim, if you could do keys when I'm not busy, then maybe I'd do keys with you
tender burrow
@warm plinth thank you bud
sick sentinel
Probably sub 65 neck with all that wasted time getting up to pee
warm plinth
I'm not even 60, wtf you talking about 65
sick sentinel
Lul implying I have farmed ap even one time
warm plinth
Ikr
exotic spoke
Almost yes here
west kayak
I busted my but last week to get from 58 to 60 for CoF R3.
lusty grotto
all i remember was doing the 60 quest
exotic spoke
Almost 63*
lusty grotto
yes
exotic spoke
Maybe I didn’t hit the numeric portion? I dunno
warm plinth
I love seeing the dudes in trade like "how are you not 60 yet lul; do you not play the game?" And I'm like yeah, I do, but I skip the shitty content.
exotic spoke
That actually would make perfect sense
lusty grotto
question is why are you talking in trade
warm plinth
I'm not
lusty grotto
🤔
warm plinth
They'll usually be talking to someone else
I don't say that to them; I just use my tough guy voice inside my head
lusty grotto
i see, i see
exotic spoke
Cause sometimes I want to troll trade chat?
Spam my recruit macro right after other guilds do
Start shit. I’m an asshole
It’s what I do
analog swift
dude same
sick sentinel
Type anal berserker rage
warm plinth
I would, but it's either legit/non-legit boosting ads on one server, or someone trying to rile people up about politics on the other server
analog swift
my gang and i have split off from 3 guilds
lusty grotto
arthas trade/lfg has the same 5 fucking nerds that talk the most amazingly stupid shit every day
analog swift
we always spam right after them
lusty grotto
2 of them im convinced are russian bots
warm plinth
Nimchip is a conspiracy theorist
lusty grotto
cause they are fans of a certain president, and that's as far as im gonna go because i dont wanna politics
warm plinth
Confirmed
lusty grotto
1 of them going completely bonkers on racism sometimes
exotic spoke
Dude - how could you not like Eisenhower?
lusty grotto
the other just fucking tells LFG about his truck selection every. fucking. day.
sick sentinel
What you ain’t got a cummins
warm plinth
His truck selection? What is this, fucking RUSH?
Oh yeah, I went old school
If you didn't play the stunt track in RUSH 2 on Nintendo 64, did you even have a childhood?
lusty grotto
like "so i went to check out the new Silverado with xx torque and xx liters today"
and its like that every day with a different truck
these kids don't even do content
warm plinth
You should just tell him you already own that truck and it sucks, every time.
lusty grotto
they just log on to wow to talk in LFG
several of them aren't even 120, they claim not to have the expansion
lusty grotto
its so weird man
sick sentinel
Hi
warm plinth
Well, no one has asked any questions in a while and the space has to be filled with something.
lusty grotto
i was asking if you were talking in trade
sick sentinel
Tldr?
low shuttle
Rip
sick sentinel
Kaege how do you feel about catheters
lusty grotto
listen man
sick sentinel
What the fuck is a catheter
low shuttle
Who's like God their in here
lusty grotto
do the full question
low shuttle
In raids
lusty grotto
kaege do you like little tubes going into your urethra
sick sentinel
@lusty grotto no
low shuttle
Tell me what I'm doing wrong
sick sentinel
Uhm
lusty grotto
good, you're in my club kaege
warm plinth
We love to tell people what they're doing wrong. Do you have logs?
low shuttle
For better parces2
exotic spoke
@sick sentinel walk away while you can
warm plinth
@willow scarab is the resident parse expert
low shuttle
Yea airselgan-sargeras
lusty grotto
nope i refuse
sick sentinel
Do you want a meme answer or a serious answer
low shuttle
That's a bad one
warm plinth
😂
lusty grotto
late will kill you
low shuttle
Look at the new one
warm plinth
That was your highest DPS one though
lusty grotto
@low shuttle can you link your own logs instead of having 1 person do it for you?
warm plinth
That's the newest one I can see. August 13th
exotic spoke
Not using the dps traits for parsing. Not using all your dps trinkets enough. Not using the correct dps essences. Not using the correct potion.
low shuttle
Oh rip
exotic spoke
That was based on the one ghash linked
warm plinth
😢
sick sentinel
if you care about ST dps and that alone
first and foremost
the sims have ONE use
like
A SINGLE ONE
and that's it
exotic spoke
You had one cyclo cast in a 5:20 kill
warm plinth
That emoji actually bothers me
lusty grotto
i miss the time when we read logs on defensive usage
warm plinth
Because yourself is one word, and the emoji makes it two
lusty grotto
i was so good at it
sick sentinel
I triggers me when I see it in prot
lusty grotto
i did sell out 😢
warm plinth
I'm deciding if that's a Casper reference or a Baby Geniuses reference
sick sentinel
for literally anything else in the game simming doesn't do that much
warm plinth
But you guys don't know wtf I'm talking about anyway so
lusty grotto
are we looking at damage here
if so, ima just keep working
i only have 6 orange parses
warm plinth
Don't lie, you're not working
low shuttle
We do I do
sick sentinel
on that log you posted
upper spoke
force multiplier or quick nav? icy still says quick nav
sick sentinel
your tides got disabled 5 times
lusty grotto
legit trash
sick sentinel
that is 225 seconds of your tides not working
like 40% of the fight
also, you are using 1 CR
your traits are meh for parsing
sick sentinel
2 pots
sick sentinel
but the wrong one
warm plinth
Yeah should be unbridled
exotic spoke
On the radiance fight - missing one cyclonic - missing CoF entirely (likely an increase as there is misty single targets), probably wrong potion (again mostly single target), wrong enchant (should be forceful)
exotic spoke
Wrong pot was for the prepot
upper spoke
so force. like pulling teeth sometimes
exotic spoke
Swap CoF to major - pretty sure that’s better for dps - but you’d have to sim it.
Nullification minor on that fight would be good too - but again you’d have to sim it
sick sentinel
enchant weapon with force multiplier
exotic spoke
Missing a cast of cyclo hurts a lot too
warm plinth
Yeah, though with a 6:13 fight, I can see one being missed just because of having to delay it once or twice
Since that's really close
Idk the fight well enough to know if you can cast it on CD without consequence
exotic spoke
Make the other tank start and rip Aggro off of him if he’s alright with it with an opening cyclo
analog creek
True parse culture says use cyclotronic on cd, the rest is a healer issue
warm plinth
😂
analog creek
First 3 bosses I 100% use on cd, tanking or not, it's up I blast it.
exotic spoke
Agree
upper spoke
ty
analog creek
If I can tank with fist of the tides debuff, I can handle 3 seconds of unmitigated hits
exotic spoke
Really only an issue when a fight ends up like radiance did
lusty grotto
dunno i used CoF major null minor for most of my orangies
warm plinth
You're an orangie.
lusty grotto
orangy
exotic spoke
On sivara, knowing my raids timing I can delay it to when I’m running out and unable to melee to drop a pool off
analog creek
Cof major is best everywhere for dmg output, with the single exception of orgazoa if you are the add tank or get high uptime on the adds. Then vision major will slightly outpace cof
warm plinth
Oh, lame. Why do you hate me Nim, honestly
lusty grotto
i dont
its bull that says 11pm is key prime time
i cant at 11pm im a hard working adult
11pm is getting ready to sleep time
coincidentally its when i get into yelling fights with my brother
exotic spoke
@lusty grotto as FPSRussia said: “don’t be beech”
warm plinth
Yeah same. I got like one key in me at 11pm lol
lusty grotto
i think you mean cyka blat
exotic spoke
I do two - three post raid and start at 1130 local time
warm plinth
I know but I like saying Rican
lusty grotto
dont you know ricans are an extension of florida? 😂
warm plinth
So that's actually 10pm my time, which means I could do a couple
lusty grotto
sonofa
well bull was in for yelling match with my brother on mechagon
cause the fucker wanted to say the combination, but he kept dying
i was like NO
analog swift
Hey is the stormwraith (bigboi) melee's blockable on radiance?
warm plinth
No, none of the add melees are blockable
You just get to be bitch-slapped for 180k
Enjoy
lusty grotto
mmm
warm plinth
(I'm serious, but thought I'd make it funny to soften the blow)
lusty grotto
...go on..
warm plinth
(Even though the blow still won't be soft, it'll hurt)
lusty grotto
go on....
warm plinth
(...I'm done now)
lusty grotto
😂
warm plinth
Idk we had the person tanking call the combo in p1 and then I called it in p2 since visibility is kinda fucked in p2
analog swift
just do it like zul?
lusty grotto
demo, IP, sr
warm plinth
Tell him to clench his butthole and use CDs
shut summit
save all CDs for intermission
analog swift
yeah figured
exotic spoke
He’s bad and needs to use IP / CDs / etc
lusty grotto
riki 
lusty grotto
did you just pull a nimchip riki
warm plinth
When he's not even here to defend himself
exotic spoke
Remember - I’m an asshole and will call it like I see it
warm plinth
Then again, fuck the people who make their co-tanks come in here for them
lusty grotto
WHOA
warm plinth
Or make their co-tanks feel obligated to come in here for them
lusty grotto
what is this nimchip time?
lusty grotto
babysitting tho
analog swift
i mean generally i play prot and do it for keys so i know what it's like to face tank fort zul
warm plinth
What do you mean, facetanking fort zul is how I go on living
lusty grotto
feelsbadman
sand egret
without facetanking fort zul...how do you know what joy feels like?
warm plinth
What's really cute about Zul though, is that he actually has other mechanics besides Shadow Barrage. Did you guys know that?
lusty grotto
i tank that shit till i die, and i die a lot
sand egret
just heal yoself
lusty grotto
hold on a second
warm plinth
E
sand egret
HEK
warm plinth
😏
sand egret
speaking of which, i gotta get that trashmaster title still
lusty grotto
let me roll up this fine newspaper
warm plinth
I imagine Nim's eyes started to widen as I typed it out
Vein started popping on the forehead
sand egret
haha it's the little joys in life
warm plinth
It really is
But yeah I need to do that too; I just replaced the cloak on my pally. Idk why I didn't just turn it in lol

Wow Mwahi, he boops you and you can't even boop him back?
ionic fern
Bestest cat.
lusty grotto
what a good kitty
exotic spoke
I just want a kitty boop 😦
warm plinth
My grandmother trained one of her cats to nudge her with its nose when she said boop. True story.
wooden radish
be nice to Groose
lusty grotto
he deserves some of that catnip
wooden radish
🙂
ionic fern
Yes, Lincoln is good boyekitten. 
lusty grotto
HE IS A KITTEN OKAY
wooden radish
@ionic fern what server are you playing in classic
sand egret
go whitemane!
lusty grotto
does anyone have any questions about RF or Naga Hide?
warm plinth
If I ever play Classic, I'm gonna play the absolute worst spec of the absolute worst class on purpose
lusty grotto
ugh
warm plinth
It's just really hard to decide what that is.
wooden radish
so like sub rogue
lusty grotto
look
sand egret
im tankin as a bear so yeah
wooden radish
or arcane mage
lusty grotto
jesus christ blade lmao
warm plinth
Eh, bear tank was okay in vanilla
lusty grotto
tanking without mangle yikes
warm plinth
As long as you don't raid
wooden radish
can't defense cap
lusty grotto
yikerinos
warm plinth
Yeah, but they are okay in dungeons. I mained a feral tank in vanilla
Just need to get your warden staff!
wooden radish
needing a rare world drop boe to tank 🙃
sand egret
all about rhat pummeler
warm plinth
😂
sand egret
alli is bis for druids
lusty grotto
poor cows
sand egret
yeah pallies OP
lusty grotto
i may or may not have reserved some people's names just because btw
warm plinth
Warden Staff was the first thing in WoW that I was like ecstatic to get.
warm plinth
Don't you have to get like...multiple pummelers though @sand egret?
I thought it had charges or some shit
Wait, I could play a deep survival hunter. Everyone knows Wyvern Sting is OP
😏
warm plinth
It sucked in vanilla though. It was like sap but stupidly low duration (10 seconds or something?) and could only use it out of combat
wooden radish
😮
warm plinth
And still had a 2 min CD for some fucking reason lol
lusty grotto
it didnt suck in pvp
warm plinth
I have never really been a PvPer
lusty grotto
😮
wooden radish
poison cleansing totem zzz
lusty grotto
totems?
warm plinth
Imagine using totems again
lusty grotto
you mean the things that you can fart on and they die
and then you gotta cast one at a time
lusty grotto
they'll have windfury
wooden radish
windury totem existed until uhh WOD
it was nerfed massively after classic tho
because it was fucking beyond broken
exotic spoke
Totem twisting boys. Get used to it if you play shaman
warm plinth
Bleh
warm plinth
Why
warm plinth
Eh
lusty grotto
yes of course
warm plinth
You guys and your PvP
sand egret
yeah Ghash, 3 charges lol
lusty grotto
and blessings
exotic spoke
He meant to say “I fear bad”
sand egret
so fucking broke
exotic spoke
Meh - not enough for fury warriors
Best threat reduction for them was to die and get brezzed
lusty grotto
alliance > horde in classic sorry
sick sentinel
so my fury warriors would get a double windfury double crit
exotic spoke
I do miss globalling kids.... but I don’t miss being deadzoned / rank 1 frost only kites
lusty grotto
lmao
sick sentinel
but alliance
lusty grotto
windfury sword proc
sick sentinel
ya
lusty grotto
fishing cthun axe procs with windfury was legit frustrating though in pvp
i fucking hated emmortal on my server
exotic spoke
UTB + crusader was stupid too
lusty grotto
he was the one warrior with shaman healbots that fucked my face so many time with that stupid axe
and that stupid axe never dropped for us
plus i think orcs had axe spec racial or some shit
i was human so it was sword i think
sick sentinel
sword spec
lusty grotto
i cant remember
warm plinth
Human had sword and mace
sick sentinel
you insta kill 2 guys
exotic spoke
No Kaege. You’re not thinking properly
lusty grotto
get fucked by retaliation bros
exotic spoke
Sweeping strikes + execute a low health target near by
lusty grotto
oh you dodged? Overpower
exotic spoke
Fuck rogues. ReallyGood ones where a pain in the ass - and usually won
lusty grotto
if they dead zoned only
i present to you
living action pots
(or blessing of freedom)
exotic spoke
I also present to you: rogues take zero skill 1-3 on top of dead zoning
Or should it be 3 - 1
exotic spoke
I mean feel free to. But dead zoning was legit
I know - hence why I said “really good ones where a pain in the ass and usually won”
modern brook
@lusty grotto @warm plinth @sand egret I'm around at like 9:00 ish I think today
lusty grotto
do i have to bring my newspapers
waxen cradle
I have been looking around and looking at a lot of logs how worthwhile is it to run BoMx3 in EP given the fact that well like most raids its near all ST fights over more ST based traits. I mean for M+ I love BoMx3 but it raises the question how worthwhile is it to do so in EP or well any raid
waxen cradle
more or less wondering how good a trait RF would be if you can use it for just the raw dps gain
modern brook
😬
IDK if this has changed
but the rf build is parse hunting
not for performance
waxen cradle
yeah true
lusty grotto
the RF question of the day ladies and gentlemen
lusty grotto
🏆
modern brook
BFA prot has seen many iterations tbh
viable --> NO LEECH --> RF gud?
its been an adventure
honest frigate
Did I get tagged?
waxen cradle
lol
west kayak
Just for my piece of mind.... I swapeped BV for Dev and have moments, 1-3 seconds, where I do nothing as nothing is currently ready. Is that normal now that I dont spam it?
warm plinth
Yeah you will have empty globals at times if you're running Devastator.
modern brook
Yeah the idea of Devestator is it puts your filler on your auto atttack
solar tangle
is sphere of suppression worth to use for necrotic?
waxen cradle
Bare in mind a lot of people sadly will rate you at least partially on how much damage you put out as a tank and that is a sad but true fact I have been met with
west kayak
I had that from a previous expansion but cannot recall which. My memory is shot so... 🙂
modern brook
so if you would ever hit your filler, you dont instead
warm plinth
Think of all the times you cast Devastate, and then remove them. There's typically not something to replace Devastate, or you'd be pressing it.
modern brook
@waxen cradle theres a difference between damage output and parse hunting 🤷
west kayak
@warm plinth thats what I had in mind but wanted to confirm.
modern brook
if the guild you're trialing for cant recognize that, save yourself the headache and find a new one
warm plinth
@solar tangle Imo, not really. You're not gonna use it as a major, and the minor is only 10% bigger slow than Thunder Clap (and they don't stack). It's not a bad 2nd minor though anyway.
modern brook
^ agreed with ghash
you also have 4 other people w/ cc's
its just not necessary - that is the benefit is not worth losing the rage refund
sand egret
that's the bigger point imho
west kayak
I feel as though I should be putting out more damage with my ilvl. Parsing ~27k at 437ilvl.
solar tangle
i see
warm plinth
I mean, what % are your parses?
sand egret
or find a frost mage
strong forum
Is that sim or actual performance
sand egret
they'll slow if they like it or not
warm plinth
27k sounds good to me on ST lol
strong forum
Cuz for performance is good
west kayak
That is sim'd, sry. I hit around 22k-25k.
strong forum
Like, not many people broke 30k
Still okay~ish
Or rather perfectly fine
Only cranks push higher than that
west kayak
Running CoF Maj and Null Min, both R3.
I dont try to min max, just try to do the best I can.
strong forum
Then you're doing a good job
warm plinth
I agree. I wouldn't be too concerned about your performance unless you do want to start min/maxing
strong forum
Like, I've been trying to push as much as I can without going benthic memes
west kayak
No Bene here, dont like the concept of it.
solar tangle
thanks
strong forum
Ye same, like you can still get 99s with that
west kayak
440 Barnacle and 440 Alch Stone are my trinkets. Cant get ones from EP to save my life.
strong forum
Use cyclo, if you really wanna max ST
solar tangle
i thought atk spd reduction was good for necro
modern brook
why care about necrotic when u take 0 damage anyways ????
west kayak
I will have to check that trinket. I know my Yellow is 425 but my blue is something like 404...
solar tangle
isn't necro killing tanks?
tawny maple
Blue doesn't do anything
strong forum
Only if you're shit yzo
west kayak
Oh...
solar tangle
😄
strong forum
Only bad tanks die to necro
modern brook
xD
warm plinth
Necro does no real damage itself, even at high stacks
strong forum
The only thing he could do, would get a little more crit
warm plinth
And we don't take much damage if we're playing properly on most packs
west kayak
So now that I have R3 Null I can spend my Gal Osc to roll Yellows? 😛
strong forum
Typically, in normal situations, you don't even have to reset necro stacks
The packs die before it gets dangerous
So don't bother trying to gear around it
Just go ham
tawny maple
It you pull big you might have to kite though
strong forum
I guess @west kayak I have 440 haste versa
modern brook
THe real killer this week is Bursting
sand egret
Its Tyrannical week, so kiting isn't really needed
modern brook
Because it relies on ur dps to not be 🐒
sand egret
it's getting your dps to not kill everyone is the issue
warm plinth
yeah...you shouldn't have to kite, especially on a tyrannical week
west kayak
@strong forum My Yellow is a 425 Haste/Vers. Will have to start gambling.
tawny maple
I'm just saying in general... Pug healers are iffy
strong forum
Grev you can check my logs if you want, I'm not running benthic memes and doing fairly well in terms of parsing
red wedge
I usually end up having to kite, because I pull big and end up hitting 30 stacks before anything starts dying.
modern brook
but on the real
warm plinth
Going back to the fact that we don't take much damage though
red wedge
It just hurts when bursting goes off
strong forum
Tbh
sand egret
that's 40% of phat heals
red wedge
30 stacks plus 3-5 bursts from stuff dying.
tawny maple
Phatty heals
warm plinth
I mean, if your group does its job, everything dies at the same time, which means necro is gone when bursting is happening
Since necro goes away when you leave combat
strong forum
Yup
hard sigil
hmm how good are the king mechagon bracer?
strong forum
Shit
warm plinth
They're not
strong forum
Cuz low ilvl
sand egret
i make sure to keep pulling to punish my healer
random urchin
Garbage unless you get a god mode Titanforge
red wedge
Yea. It's very pack dependent, I feel. 'cause like.. non-elite bursting and crap.
modern brook
@warm plinth does necro go away w/ emisarries
sand egret
then i blame them for my death
modern brook
or does it wait for the fucking tele
cause thats the worst thing in existence as a sneak boy
random urchin
It waits for the tele
modern brook
Games ucks
warm plinth
I mean, you're still in combat if the emissary is still there
sand egret
yeah
warm plinth
But you should be stunning tides at low HP to prevent the actual teleport anyway
So voids are the only concern
sand egret
i hate how the tides aura is still there when she's casting
modern brook
emisaries make necrotic unbeatable confirmed
seasonal bullshit ass affix

Also tides doesn't do necrotic, if anyone was wondering. Tested it last night.
Not that it really matters, but just FYI
random urchin
You can always have a dps use a knock back on the tides right before it dies. Knocks it out of the pack so you can get straight to stunning stuff if needed
warm plinth
Well yeah but that's because they don't die
sand egret
reaping adds were ghosts. they were already dead
warm plinth
If you use Storm Bolt on tides and it "dies" while stunned, the aura goes away immediately
sand egret
interesting
warm plinth
That's how we do it, especially on the more dangerous packs, gets you interrupting/CCing that much faster
exotic spoke
Yup - if it’s cced while it dies hat happens

Skips the cast
sonic vapor
just have to be careful about DR for that stun
warm plinth
That's why you use a single target stun.

You made me depressed ghash
warm plinth
It's sad isn't it

Did you see the last one I said

I see everything

He's looking at how low of an r.io gets you into top 10 for his server based on class lol

Ah
Ye that's always fun on dead servers
On my old realm it was 1.8k for #1

Two classes have a 10th place higher than 1k
Druid and paladin.
Everyone else is sub 1k - warlock is at 670

And that's your main audiencec
Complaining about class balance
BTW
And stuff being too hard
That's the main audience
Isnt that sad

I think George Carlin’s said it best:

Paraphrasing of course

Yeah, I don't think people realize the level of skill an average WoW player has lol

Number one overall on my server last season was 2500. And it was split 4 ways (my group) I just missed one run a rip
Games easy - most players are just shit
warm plinth
Yeah
Well
I think it's more that most people just don't give a shit about getting any better, even if they're capable of it
exotic spoke
Fair - but I think that makes it worse personally
warm plinth
Like it's insane to me that a lot of people I know on alliance talk about how 10s are so hard and all this shit, and I try to direct them to class discords and stuff and they're like "I don't care that much"
exotic spoke
You’re willfully ignorant
rapid tide
It's easier to complain than to actually work on improving.
exotic spoke
(You being them)
warm plinth
Or the person I tried to help with simming because they were still using Pawn. I explained that they should just use a top gear sim and they're like "I just want it to be simple" and I'm like...it's literally less steps than what you're doing right now
exotic spoke
We had our Mt from vanilla / BC come back and try to join in uldir
I had to tel him what talents to use. He didn’t use them. I told him why... he ignored me. This happened multiple times
He was given the information and refused to use it
warm plinth
Then they said they liked seeing the green arrow (as an explanation of why they still used pawn) and I was like ok just go into Pawn and set stamina to 100 weight and it'll just show every ilevel increase as an upgrade, since you don't care about stats anyway.
strong forum
Theres no helping the lost
warm plinth
It's just frustrating to me because I can't think that way. I can't understand how you can be fine with not being good. And it's not even like WoW is important; that's not it. But you have to think that mentality carries over to real life as well and that's sad to me lol
lusty grotto
well look
warm plinth
Especially since improving in WoW takes virtually no effort
lusty grotto
i have multiple friends that are just plain lazy
and they use AMR
and/or pawn
and i have had multiple yelling matches about how retarded they are
"i aint doing that other shit, this is just easier"
ok then

I was #1 on my server when I hit 1k io last season....
heard ya were talking about dead servers....
warm plinth
What server are you on Blade?
sand egret
was Dragonblight
warped mirage
Hey, quick question. What can i do differently since necrotic. i cant just grab all the snake boys and open a path for who ever is running the orb i did a few 9s-10 ToS keys and i kept getting rekt in that room
warm plinth
I didn't even know there was a server called that
sand egret
next highest person had like 800 io haha
lusty grotto
in orb room? either you blow them the hell up or you haul ass
warm plinth
@warped mirage Only one person needs to do orb; everyone else should be killing sneks
lusty grotto
you can pretty much survive them if you do well with block
terse dragon
Do you guys think it's worth dropped from a 445 no bastion to a 435 with bastion?

“Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.” -Mark Twain
lusty grotto
its the necrotic ticking damage that owns you
warm plinth
They do virtually no damage to a warrior, and necrotic stacks shouldn't matter either if you're keeping block up
lusty grotto
ILVL > ALL @terse dragon
sand egret
necro ticking damage is proportional to the mob that casts it
warm plinth
I mean, my paladin had like 78 stacks ticking on me last night and it wasn't shit
sand egret
so lil' sneks do a tinnnnny dot
warm plinth
It doesn't do anything from them
sand egret
i pull the room
terse dragon
@lusty grotto 445 first and then Focus on bastions?
slender vortex
im getting destroyed this week as well 435
arctic cape
important question, can tanks get arcane current on Orgozoa? like randomly not from a friendly target.
warm plinth
Specifically on that room? Or just in general?
lusty grotto
look, im not sure how that is complicated
you'll have more than enough time to roll for BoMs
slender vortex
i did a +12 TD and got destroyed. Group kept telling me it was because of stacks had shield block up to no avail.
think ill just play my priest this week
warm plinth
TD should be fairly painless this week
sand egret
SB ain't going to stop the stacks...eventually you'll die
warm plinth
If you're getting up over 30 stacks and you're not full/near full health, you should probably kite and drop stacks
slender vortex
i did 10 UD it went well
sand egret
if your dps is taking that long to kill stuff, that's another issue
slender vortex
ya i thought about that
sand egret
it's Tyrannical week. Trash is pretty tame
lusty grotto
yeah its not even fort week
warm plinth
Man, my UR was fucking brutal. Tyrannical sporecaller hits so goddamn hard lol.
sand egret
your damage intake should be pretty tiny
lusty grotto
weird ghash
warm plinth
I'm sure I'm not great at prot pally but fuck, it was rough
exotic spoke
First on my server is 1915 - the DH in my push group. We’ve had a rocky start with our schedules recently to push
8th is the last person over 1500
32nd is last over 1200
61st is last over 1100
The 100th person overall on the server is the last person over 1k.....
Ghash you have made me very sad
@sand egret look what he made me do
lusty grotto
are you eating the shockwaves?
warm plinth
This is on pally, not war
lusty grotto
🤷
warm plinth
I mean, shockwave doesn't do shit on my war since it's blockable.
honest frigate
@arctic cape yes you can, and if you do, spread a bit and hit spelt reflect and it’ll do some damage to the boss
warm plinth
I was eating shockwaves but they were doing like...15ish% of my health with SotR. His melees were what trucked me
sand egret
🤔
warm plinth
No, I wish I did
sand egret
were ya moving him? maybe you took a weird backhit
honest frigate
Ideally you shouldn’t get it
But if you do, just turn yourself around and that’ll be spread enough
warm plinth
This was an ongoing thing. I moved him for shockwaves on spores, but I made sure to backpedal/strafe
We wiped like 7 times (not all were because I died but 4 or 5 of them were)
honest frigate
If your raid is cleaving you with it, they’re not doing mechanics right
@warm plinth are you horsing out of every other shockwave?
warm plinth
No, but shockwaves weren't what were killing me
honest frigate
The melees were?
warm plinth
Yeah
lusty grotto
he said melees were killing him on his pally
warm plinth
On pally, just to clarify. Not warrior
honest frigate
What’s your SOTR uptime?
warm plinth
Idk I'd have to look when I get home. I think I still have the Details for it
But I was making sure it was up for shockwave and otherwise just making sure it was up as much as possible
Even using Lucid major
exotic spoke
What key level?
warm plinth
13
exotic spoke
What shield Ilvl on your pallie?
warm plinth
415
exotic spoke
I mean - doesn’t that mean you only block like 30% of the damage?
warm plinth
Yeah but blocking on pally isn't a huge thing anyway
warm plinth
It matters, but shield isn't a magical upgrade like it is for warrior
honest frigate
Your healers probably just not healing you enough
If you’re managing your cds well and what not
exotic spoke
Sounds like a healing problem
warm plinth
I'm not sure. He's part of our group but I've never grouped with him on anything but his hunter before I think
honest frigate
What class is he
warm plinth
Resto druid
He was asking me to drop stacks at 18 necrotic though so maybe he was just rusty
lusty grotto
hmm
honest frigate
Oh I dorgot this week was necrotic lmao
lusty grotto
might be a bad druid alt
honest frigate
You should be resetting necrotic every festering spores
warm plinth
He's a really good player but again, only seen him play hunter before
honest frigate
Run away when he starts casting and then go back in
Don’t go above 10 necrotic stacks and if you do call for a taunt from a dps with a defensive
warm plinth
Yeah, it was dropping every harvest. I never had more than around the 18-20 mark
Surely 20 stacks of necrotic shouldn't be getting me killed though; that's 40% reduced healing
lusty grotto
we need logs
analog creek
That's more than enough to kill a meh geared pally tbh
warm plinth
I'll give you a log bish
exotic spoke
He didn’t log nim 😛
warm plinth
I'm gonna log in the future
lusty grotto
ghash im disappointed
warm plinth
😦
analog creek
Sporecaller is the highest tank dmg doing boss in there
lusty grotto
hmm
warm plinth
But it was literally like a light switch. Like Crawg was fine and then Sporecaller was like WHATTHEFUCK and then last boss was fine
sand egret
my pug group that didn't interrupt a single blood bolt begs to differ.....
analog creek
Need resets often with necrotic, or he will quickly outpace the resto
pseudo plover
anyone with knowledge in classic prot warrior?
lusty grotto
i am a vanilla prot warrior sure
exotic spoke
If I can remember sure ent
lusty grotto
but for classic questions you should go to #vanilla-discussion
analog creek
Blood bolts dont even matter anymore, sporecallrr still does more
warm plinth
Yeah I mean, I took a few bolts to the face and it was like maybe 12% of my HP
sand egret
they certainly matter when they're chain cast
pseudo plover
if i want to prot warrior for classic, how should i spec in talents? avoid prot talents and just shield tank in dungeons?
exotic spoke
I’d have to check my log but I wonder
warm plinth
Which would add up if it was a bunch in a row
pseudo plover
i asked in classic and its dead
lusty grotto
you mean for leveling up
exotic spoke
Go arms for leveling and throw a shield on when you need to tank is the general consensus I think
lusty grotto
yeah you can go whatever
warm plinth
Idk I'm gonna start logging though and then Nim will love me again 😢
lusty grotto
just put on a shield, go d-stance and spam sunders
sand egret
yeah going all in on Prot spec will honestly just mean you'll suffer for the rest of your experience
respecing sucks
lusty grotto
remember to tab and sunder!
warm plinth
Oh yeah respeccing in vanilla was pay gold at a NPC right
lusty grotto
for packs 😃
sand egret
most just respec'd at 60 into full prot
warm plinth
And it went up each time
sand egret
but leveled as dps and slapped on a shield
exotic spoke
Also - you literally asked 6 minutes ago.
Someone just responded
And if you did about 30 seconds of research you would have seen that has been asked multiple times in the past little bit
lusty grotto
yup i was arms for my entire leveling thing
except for a brief period where i experimented with 2 hander fury
and then went back never to spec fury ever again
deleted forever, which is why i only have 2 specs on my warrior
sand egret
lol vanilla fury
warm plinth
Fury now is fun
lusty grotto
vanilla 2 HANDER fury
sand egret
now them Ashkandi bois.....
lusty grotto
you shut your mouth blade

them were some lahds

Nim will you love me again if I get you logs?

There I did it

You should be ashamed

everyone and their mother had that AV mace

Though DEOI was really good too
warm plinth
AV can die in a fire

seeing a Dreadnought war with a Corrupted Ashbringer comin at you in WSG
warm plinth
Also did you guys see that addon someone made for classic that turns you into a vendor lol
sand egret
yikes
lusty grotto
after AQ, AV becomes a bit better
but yeah i aint fucking standing around for 3 day AVs
sand egret
similar to when you see a Bonescythe wearing rogue appear behind you, you just kinda say "guess I'll just die"
sand egret
in that gear I could 1-100 wars
warm plinth
That's one thing I do miss about vanilla; you knew how fucked you were by what they were wearing
lusty grotto
oh yeah, ill take that bet

well let me rephrase that, i would take that bet but i wont because im not touching that fucking thing again
