oblique garnet
#

Are you tanking boss or adds?

sweet gate
#

oblique garnet
#

What traits are you running and whats your shield ilvl

sweet gate

2 basition of might traits, 2 callous reprisal, 1 deafening crash, 1 brace for impact

exotic spoke
#

That’s some chines propaganda tofu

outer dew

LMAO

sweet gate

oblique garnet

You have 65 neck?

sweet gate

sweet gate

ok thank you

lost talon
#

what is the stat priority for prot?

exotic spoke

I’ll forgive you

novel temple
#

what pots are we using for single target and on m+ pulls?

exotic spoke
#

I have unbridled, superior strength, empowered proximity, and superior stam depending on what I need

novel temple
#

what does unbridled and empowered do

sick sentinel
#

unbrideled is the st pot

#

empored is the 4+ targets pot

exotic spoke
#

Single target dps and aoe strength ^^

sick sentinel
#

superios str is 2-4 targets

exotic spoke
#

Stam is magic defense or if I’m memeing with anima

#

Mostly memeing if I’m being honest.

undone sun
#

though very rarely would i recommend stam

exotic spoke
#

Agree thyme

#

I really only use them in ML tyrannical

#

I’d rather have 20 and not need them over not have them and need 1

sick sentinel
#

The way I go about pots is
Unbridled for st
Empored for trash
And str with avatar for when I want to second pot a boss that I known will not last an entire minute

#

I very very rarely use str pots

junior ivy
#

Who said my name

exotic spoke
#

I did

#

Tofu was being mean to me

#

But we made up

junior ivy
#

No one is allowed to be mean to riki

exotic spoke
#

Yeah kaege that’s about on par for me

Maybe 2-5 a month? If that

#

@outer dew seeeeee

outer dew

Bullying you is my way of affection

Love is war

You sound like ghash and maelkenar

I'm obv tsundere AF

So.... I don’t know what that means.... I’ll just mod my head

Side note - some people are already asking for the AQ gate opening turn ins to change

If you want classic

Keep everything the same

exotic spoke
#

Ahhh I see I see

vocal elm
#

I see a lot of prot logs with Reckless Flurry is that correct?

undone sun
#

yup

vocal elm
#

Does it give that much damage increase?

undone sun
#

it's enough to use it over other traits for ST damage

vocal elm
#

Even BoM?

strong forum

1x rf is 600-800 dps

lost talon
#

is prot any fun rn?

undone sun
#

Subjective

strong forum
#

weird question

#

i think prot is the most fun its been in quite a while and incredibly well designed

#

other people dont like it

#

for different reasons

sick sentinel
#

prot war is the most objectively fun tank and if you disagree then well you are wrong heh

strong forum
#

well sloot doesnt like prot

#

for some reason

#

he doesnt like the avatar rotation

shut summit
undone sun
#

Do you know what subjective means

strong forum
#

pretty sure that was the joke glick made

undone sun
#

Wasn't talking to glick

#

I know glick is just trolling so I ignored it

strong forum
#

ye you said 1 thing

#

and i elaborated on my stance

#

to actually answer his question

outer dew
#

Bear is a more fun tank

#

Change my mins

undone sun
#

who are you

neat lagoon
#

we are forgetting about Vengeance Demon Hunters

#

I am sad to admit but I vote the DH

sick sentinel
#

subjective isnt a defense

#

sloot is a prot pally main with bad opinions

sand egret
#

you're all wrong. I'm the most fun tank.

sick sentinel
#

I mean if you like to sparkle and be pretty then prot pally is for you

finite gull
#

deswind I finally hit 65 neck. What 3rd eseence would be the go to for Prot? Currently using VoP major - Lucid as first minor. Level 3 conflict any decent as a minor? (M+)

lost talon
#

is prot fun in M+?

finite gull
#

I like it. sense

warm plinth
#

No offense but do you think asking the same question 3 hours later is going to get you different answers? Play the spec if you enjoy playing it. If you don't, don't. Fun, as Thyme said, is subjective. No one in this channel can tell you what YOU will like.

lost talon
#

i am debating if i wanna gear my warr fury or prot. im asking for opinions, not sass

sand egret
#

you're in the prot channel, what opinions did you expect?

lost talon
#

some people play more than one tank...

#

some play fury and prot

sand egret
#

which, in context, is a more meaningful question

lost talon
#

i expect people to answer if they think its more fun than most, or if it is just better and used cuz of that

sand egret
#

"is prot fun"

lost talon
#

so what are peoples opinions on the new question then?

sand egret
#

yes.

lost talon
#

is prot more fun enough to play it over fury ona M+ only alt

neat lagoon
#

"funnest tanks" imo DH > Warrior > DK=Paladin > Monk > Druid

#

and that is for all scenarios, raiding and keystones

lost talon
#

So what does Warrior tank bring to the table that helps in M+

neat lagoon
#

lots of damage

#

more damage than any other imo. the only tank I have seen that can compete is demon hunters

#

and they smooth the damage pretty well since a lot of it is melee

lost talon
#

how much damage do warrior tanks pump?

#

and are they one of the ones that can use a DPS trink and usually be ok?

neat lagoon
#

i only tank with dps trinkets

#

but yes since haste and strength directly relate to helping our mitigation it works well

lost talon
#

ah, what trinks that frop from M+ would be ideal and what essences?

neat lagoon
#

a lot of this is in the pins. literally every question can be answered. I am sure you will find all the basic information regarding protection warriors and keystone tanking

lost talon
#

How do i find the pins?

warm plinth
#

Are you on mobile or PC?

lost talon

Your welcome

ionic fern

You're so thoughtful.

😄

fair brook
#

How many wipes, on average, do you think guilds take to get M Ashvane? Is this number located on logs somewhere?

ionic fern
#

Only if you go through all the logs for that guild.

vocal nimbus
#

100-150 for avg guilds imo

distant crystal
#

we took 122

void berry
#

132 here, with quite a number of early resets.

cold wren
#

What are best traits for m+ prot

ionic fern
#

VoP major, CnS/Sphere/Lucid.

sick sentinel
#

he said traits

#

that's essences

ionic fern
#

Kms.

sick sentinel
#

LMAO

ionic fern
#

BoM(Stackable)/DC(x1)/IF/MS

Think this shows it's time for me to get my 2nd coffee.

What is MS?

It means to be showing great attention to detail

vocal canopy
#

hi 3x bastion is must have for m+? or 2 x enough?

#

ant witch essences are the best for m+?

ionic fern
#

VoP major, CnS/Sphere/Lucid.

#

3x bastion is not a "must" but it's really good both offensively and defensively.
If your highest ilvl azerite doesn't have a BoM and it brings you down to 2xBoM's it's not the end of the world - you can still do m+ just fine.

void berry
#

Still didn't find a thing to replace my alchemist stone... ><

brittle owl
#

just get a razor coral lel

oblique garnet
#

Alchemist stone is good

inland bolt
#

defensively do warriors just wear the highest ilvl gear?

#

like a 445 belt(haste/mastery) vs a 440 with socket (crit/haste) - id just go with the 445 belt right?

finite gull
#

I feel like generally Ilvl is king. But if it has a hole it gets a bit more iffy. Especially when comparing a hole to only 5 ilvl worth of stats

eternal plover
#

I would go crit haste with a crit socket tbh.. much more defensive value

exotic rapids
#

Hi guys. What do you think 415 Edicts of the Faithless > 404 Computation Device? for m+?

I Am 430 and doing mostly 10+ Keys

oblique garnet
#

edicts is probably better yeah

proper yarrow
#

quick prot question..im currently running 3 BoM for my Azerite traits but unfortunately the 445 ones i got dont have them (it has DC though) should i just use 2-3x DC instead of 3 435 BoM pieces?

#

i do M+ and not tanking raids

ionic fern
#

So..you have BoM on 3 azerite and they are all 435?
And then you have 3 Azerites at 445 that have 0 BoM's but all of them have DC's?

exotic rapids
#

thanks @oblique garnet

proper yarrow
#

@ionic fern

#

i didn't respec the other pieces to prot so im not sure if that affected the results

oblique garnet
#

id stick with the 435 pieces for now

proper yarrow
#

hmmm ok

topaz bough
#

What should I be looking to use for punch cards

warm plinth
#

If you’re worried about parsing, then cyclo plus the highest yellow you can find

#

@topaz bough

topaz bough
#

trajectory analysis the one that grants you dodge worth it?

shadow tapir
#

Whipple, is trajectory analysis a red or yellow card?

#

I believe it's red?

topaz bough
#

It’s red

shadow tapir
#

If you want survivability its better than Cyclotronic Blast, but subroutine: overclock is the red you should be targeting if you want to use that trinket as a defensive.

#

Someone will correct me if that's flawed.

warm plinth
#

Yeah Overclock is the better middle-ground card (since it's still decent for damage). Trajectory Analysis is not realistically maintained at high stacks imo

shadow tapir
#

Ghash (or anyone) would you give up 15 ilvls to ensure you have 1 stack of DC? My gut tells me yes but it hurts my soul, haha.

oblique garnet
#

yes

warm plinth
#

Well, if you're using Booming Voice, yes. If you're parsing with Devastator, no.

shadow tapir
#

Thanks Late and Ghash.

topaz bough
#

Ok thanks for the help @warm plinth @shadow tapir

sweet summit
#

440 jes+hole or 430 vial, goes with 430 block+hole

sick sentinel
#

jes+block

sweet summit
#

thanks

sick sentinel
#

vial is a trap

#

big trap

sweet summit
#

i thought vial was good?

warm plinth
#

It's not a bad trinket. It's just that most people end up macroing it with Avatar, so you lose the 1st GCD (which is where you have the highest str buff)

sweet summit
#

you use it right before first clap in demo window right?

#

with ava ofc

warm plinth
#

That's how I'd use it, yeah

sweet summit
#

thats how i used it, thought that would make the most use out of it

#

i guess the same goes for when to use jes then?

warm plinth
#

Nah Jes you can just use with Ava. Vial is different because it has a decaying buff

#

Where it's strongest at the start

#

AFAIK, sims assume you're holding Jes for Ava

sweet summit
#

ah ok, thank you

shadow tapir
#

Given the options currently available would this be a solid assortment of azerite gear for M+ and survivability? I want to make sure I am understanding everything fully. Thanks in advance. 🙂

sick sentinel
#

@sweet summit you clap-avatar-clap-demo-vial+clap

sweet summit
#

yea exactly @sick sentinel

sick sentinel
#

90% of the people don't do that

#

that's why we say it's a trap

#

it's a good trinket but like, most people use it badly

hardy mountain
#

can someone link the google doc that lists all spell that can be spell reflected?

sick sentinel
sweet summit
#

but the jes is better even with the correct vial use?

sick sentinel
#

it's 10 ilvls and a hole

sweet summit
#

big true

sick sentinel
#

and also jes gives vers to your other people in your group

sweet summit
#

yea, thanks again

analog creek
#

@shadow tapir I would use the higher ilvl chest, drop to 2x BoM and pick up the DC somewhere else. Probably better to use the 435 helmet or use the 450 and just run 1x BoM. Chest stat budget is really high to drop ilvl there

#

DC would be worth the stat dump, but you aren't dumping ilvl for DC, you're dropping it for BoM, which won't usually be worth it

#

Defensively atleast

#

Sim for dps

shadow tapir
#

Ok, thank you for the insight. 🙂

#

That helps seeing how you evaluate it.

onyx vessel

Ilvl pretty much always wins -trinkets and maybe rings

which 3rd essence should I use for mythic +? i have rank 2 conflict and strife only

i fucked up on making cookies

now I have a brick of a cookie

You mentioned brick and I thought of it

lmao

#

why you gotta mock my cookies

exotic spoke
#

Pics or it didn’t happen

#

(Of the cookies)

outer dew
#

I'm old how do you send videos on discord

exotic spoke
#

Just a pic works

#

I don’t know if you can send a video directly

outer dew
#

but how do i prove

#

it's brick quality

#

Figured it out

#

@exotic spoke

#

Look at that bitch

#

Just crack right off

exotic spoke
#

Yeah that’s a brick

outer dew
#

I could probably stab someone with it

#

Like chewing intonit

#

I feel like my teeth are the ones on the losing end

warm plinth
#

Okay am I dumb? The fuck is that thing you hit it with, a carrot?

outer dew
#

That's a slice of a giant cookie

#

And I was talking about how it was like a brick

#

Because instead of baking it for 30 minutes

#

I baked it for 50

#

😂

warm plinth
#

No I mean, what did you hit it with

#

The pie shaped thing is the cookie right?

outer dew
#

Yea

#

And yes it's a carrot

#

You dont use carrots to smash things eith?

warm plinth
#

I don't think I've bought a carrot like...my entire adult life

onyx vessel
#

Same

outer dew
#

???

#

Ghash

#

What the fuck

#

Carrots are great

warm plinth
#

I mean, I don't mind them (if they're raw). I just don't have a reason to buy them.

outer dew
#

Perfect for baking, great for soup, raw is tasty

warm plinth
#

I've probably bought a bag of baby carrots a few times, because I'm a man-child

outer dew
#

And you can yeet that bitch at people

warm plinth
#

I also don't cook so

outer dew
#

Ahh

#

I mean, that makes sense then

#

I cook a lot

warm plinth
#

My girlfriend can cook but we live off of like...tacos and shit a lot

#

Because taco meat is the only thing I can make 😉

outer dew
#

Lmao

#

Why no cooking ghash?

#

I'm over here debating about a stock pot

warm plinth
#

Mostly because it's inconvenient for me. My girlfriend and I work pretty different shifts but we like to eat together. So we usually want something quick so I can go to sleep shortly after. Plus I'm colorblind and I can't be bothered to use a fuckin meat thermometer to see if my shit is done cooking.

outer dew
#

You can touch it

#

To figure out if its cooked

#

😂

warm plinth
#

Who do I look like, Gordon Ramsay?

outer dew
#

And it's not too bad meal prepping or theres some hella easy meals

#

Wdym

#

And some dishes

warm plinth
#

JUST TOUCH IT

outer dew
#

It's just aite

warm plinth
#

IT'S RAWWW

outer dew
#

30 minutes for 1 lb

#

Yea

#

Its easy

warm plinth
#

You're easy

#

😏

outer dew
#

Just for you bby

#

😉

warm plinth
#

But nah I have no real aversion to cooking. I just never really did it so I never really do it lol

outer dew
#

Iunno saves quite a lot

#

And is only way I get taste of home

#

Think it's a great skill to have

warm plinth
#

We make stuff at home; I just wouldn't call it cooking most of the time

outer dew
#

Since it seems like people just dont cook anymore

warm plinth
#

It's more like...assembling

#

And heating up

outer dew
#

Like my roommate was telling me how he was like

#

Man, I don't have time to make meals

#

Yada yada

#

Yo bitchass wants a salad

#

Shit takes 15 minutes at most

#

To prep you a salad

warm plinth
#

Takes me about 15 mins to make tacos

#

👍

outer dew
#

Exactly

#

Takes me 5 minutes to heat up my taco leftovers

#

😂

warm plinth
#

lul

#

This is how welfare I am at heart

#

For dinner last night, I legit took the leftover taco meat, put it in a bowl, put some shredded cheese on it, slapped that bitch in the microwave, and ate it with a fork

outer dew
#

Lmao, that's a great play

#

Put some chips and shredded lettuce + chopped tomato

#

I'd fuck with it

#

And tbf, I guess there's a buy in cost for kitchenware

novel temple
#

Go with crockpots

warm plinth
#

So like...tomato is stupid for me. I don't like raw tomato but I'll eat it in literally any other preparation

outer dew
#

It's something that grows on you

#

Like I use to hate tomatoes

novel temple
#

You’ll just throw everything in, cook it over the day and you’ll always have something to eat when you get home from work

outer dew
#

But I just started yeeting it down my throat

warm plinth
#

Yeah we make a few crockpot meals

outer dew
#

Tbh

warm plinth
#

But that's not really cooking

outer dew
#

Modern crockpots cook at too high of a temp

warm plinth
#

It's putting shit in a hot bowl and letting it heat up

outer dew
#

So it's kind of shitty for braising

#

And low and slow

warm plinth
#

I don't even know wtf braising means

outer dew
#

Just letting meat stew in some kind of sauce/marinade/juice

warm plinth
#

I'm what you call an uncultured swine

outer dew
#

Like some meats

#

You cook for hours

#

Like a tasty pork shoulder made into pulled pork

#

I'll put that bitch in the oven low and slow for 6 hours

warm plinth
#

I live in Kansas City; this whole city survives on pulled pork

outer dew
#

With some coconut soda, fish sauce, and bit of soy

#

Yea

#

But tbf, smoked pulled pork is different

#

But iunno. Cooking a good skill, I find it fun

warm plinth
#

True. My girlfriend makes some good pulled pork in the crockpot though tbh

#

She puts Dr. Pepper and shit in it, but it works out

outer dew
#

That's normal

#

😂

warm plinth
#

How tf do I know

outer dew
#

Same reason I put in coconut soda

warm plinth
#

Do I look like I'm the kind of person who even cares what's in the food I eat? 😂

outer dew
#

But that's more traditional viet things

#

Oi

#

You see

#

I love viet food

#

But I hate eating out

#

Because its garbage

warm plinth
#

Does viet food have a lot of that stuff like bok choy and cabbage and shit?

outer dew
#

So only way I get Viet food is cooking

warm plinth
#

Like the leafy stuff

outer dew
#

I mean, yes and no

#

There's a lot of leafy stuff

warm plinth
#

A big reason why I don't make a lot of food is because I hate like...every vegetable on god's green earth

outer dew
#

It's like 50:50

#

😂

#

Half vegetables, half everything else

warm plinth
#

Like literally every green thing you can think of, I probably don't like it

outer dew
#

Broccoli?

warm plinth
#

Except avocado. I'm a white american; we love that shit

#

Hate it

outer dew
#

And celery is used a lot for bolognese

warm plinth
#

Raw celery is okay but I don't like it cooked

Really?

warm plinth
#

Yep

outer dew
#

It's normal to have celery, onion, and carrot as a base for some tomato sauces

warm plinth
#

I like onions of all kinds

outer dew
#

And I think for cajun cooking

#

Celery is a part of the trinity

#

😂

warm plinth
#

There's types of meat i don't like too. Like I hate roast

outer dew
#

Really?

#

Now is it because you dont like the meat taste

#

Or is it because you have had shit roast

warm plinth
#

Frankly it probably is because I've had shit roast

outer dew
#

Like making roast is super simple

#

But if you white

#

And afraid of anything pink

#

Lifes miserable

#

😂

warm plinth
#

Nah I'm a rare/medium rare person

outer dew
#

Nah, I'm p sure you just have had shit roast then

warm plinth
#

But the rest of my family is like we want that shit well done, aka ruined

outer dew
#

Nah 100000%

#

If you like meat

#

Ya just had some sad time roast

#

It's like people who go

#

I hate pork chops

#

But get deathly afraid when it's a little pink

warm plinth
#

Nah pork chops I've definitely had amazing ones and disgusting ones

outer dew
#

Nah, but lotta people.over cook it

warm plinth
#

They do, yeah

#

Dry as sand

#

Hard as a rock

undone sun
#

oh food talk

outer dew
#

145F and you gucci

warm plinth
#

I like to use a little thyme on my pork chops, if you know what I mean

outer dew
#

Or they dont let meat rest

warm plinth
#

Idk if thyme goes on pork chops. I just wanted to make a joke with Thyme's name

undone sun
#

👌

outer dew
#

Kinda wanted to try some miso on some lamb chops I got

#

Tbh

warm plinth
#

I've watched enough hell's kitchen I should be able to make lamb chops in my sleep

outer dew
#

Lmaooo

#

But yes thyme

#

What's your opinion on cooking,

warm plinth
#

I bet Thyme pairs wines with his dinner

undone sun
#

i like to

warm plinth
#

He's a sophisticated chap

outer dew
#

You think it's a life skill or something optional

#

Because my old roomie and I had a talking

#

And it seems like people just dont cook anymore

#

Or spooked by it

#

His GF spooked to hold a knife in the kitchen.

undone sun
#

i haven't quite gotten into wines yet

#

😄

warm plinth
#

I'm spooked for my GF to hold a knife. I like to live

outer dew
#

Lmaoooo

#

Gonna get stabbed for saying stupid shit

#

Tbh

#

I just use vinegar instead of wine when cooking

warm plinth
#

I was referring to like...oh we're having roast; a nice pinot noir would go with this

#

Or w/e

outer dew
#

Ahh

undone sun
#

yeh, im not a big wine drinker

outer dew
#

I dont like booze that much

warm plinth
#

I'm not a drinker, at all really

undone sun
#

i've cooked with it many times though

#

👌

outer dew
#

I'll have a shot now and then

exotic spoke
#

If any of you go into general - sorry in advance

warm plinth
#

I don't need alcohol to act like a moron. You guys know this.

outer dew
#

What's a decent red and white wine to cook with?

undone sun
#

mostly a social drinker, would have a beer or two if family's over while cooking

outer dew
#

Or should I be going with cheapest?

exotic spoke
#

Vermouth

warm plinth
#

I drink when I go out and everyone is drinking because I can't stand drunk people if I'm sober.

outer dew
#

Exactly

undone sun
#

lol

outer dew
#

But iunno

#

A shot or two for me relaxes me

warm plinth
#

But I don't drink and drive. Ever. So I have to have someone willing to DD or I usually just don't go

exotic spoke
#

Vermouth is a fortified white wine

outer dew
#

Even though I'm not drunk

#

Yea

#

But is it cheap?

#

Like cooking wine doesnt have to be amazing

#

From what I understand

exotic spoke
#

Like 15 dollars or so for a good sized bottle

outer dew
#

Tbh I kinda wanna get more into baking

exotic spoke
#

US dollars

outer dew
#

Hmm, I'll keep a look out then

daring zealot
#

hey quick question, the ilvl rule doesnt count for rings right? got a 450 ring with crit bu cant imagine thats better than 435 with vers

exotic spoke
#

It’s true zjaakk

outer dew
#

Crit is fine of a stat

warm plinth
#

If I were going to drop ilevel for a ring it definitely wouldn't be for vers

exotic spoke
#

Sockets should be considered but yes that 450 is better for survivability

outer dew
#

Only thing I wouldn't drop would be @warm plinth

#

😉

warm plinth
outer dew
#

Lmao

#

Aite aite

#

Do you like limes?

exotic spoke
#

Lol

outer dew
#

And what about cilantro? I know for some people that taste like soap apparently

warm plinth
#

My favorite restaurant is Chipotle, so what do you think D:

undone sun
#

😂

warm plinth
#

Seriously I worked at one for 3 weeks. Even the Pepsi has cilantro in it there

outer dew
#

Chipotle makes me sad

#

But I'm from socal

exotic spoke
#

I like both. Are you making me dinner?

outer dew
#

😂

warm plinth
#

I love Chipotle.

#

Can we have a WoW meet up at Tofu's house so we can be fed?

outer dew
#

Yea, but theres 50 other taco/burrito places

#

But like I said

#

I'm from SoCal

warm plinth
#

I don't like most of the other ones I've tried. No good local places here, and the chains people always say are better just aren't.

outer dew
#

Theres a better and cheaper place locally for me

warm plinth
#

When I lived in El Paso ,there were some good places

outer dew
#

I mean

#

Of course

#

😂

warm plinth
#

Because it's basically Mexico

#

So

outer dew
#

Oh yea

#

My mom finally started eating street tacos

#

She was telling me about it

undone sun
#

The Taco Stand in Encinitas

#

👌

outer dew
#

I asked her if I could marry a mexican girl now

#

She told me no

exotic spoke
#

I want street tacos now

warm plinth
#

I think half of Skyhold lives in Cali

undone sun
#

quite a bit

#

definitely

outer dew
#

I mean

exotic spoke
#

East coast is best coast

undone sun
#

doesn't even rhyme

#

west coast best coast

#

smh

outer dew
#

If someone told me they were asian. I'd guess NY/Texas/California/Minnesota

#

And I'd probably be right

warm plinth
#

Do I count as both since I live in the middle?

outer dew
#

It's okay ghash

#

We'll accept you

warm plinth
#

I mean, you SoCal folks love to move here

#

Idfk why

outer dew
#

Cheap

#

😂

exotic spoke
#

East coast is the beast coast

#

What now thyme

undone sun
#

tbh

#

i don't even want to live in SoCal

warm plinth
#

Move to KCMO like the rest of your peeps. You probably know some folks here anyway.

outer dew
#

1200 gets you a double or a really shityy single

#

While some fuckers

#

In AZ rent a house for that kind of money

#

😂

warm plinth
#

I pay $815 for a 1200 sq ft 2 bed 2 1/2 bath apartment

outer dew
#

Exactly

#

😂

undone sun
#

🤣

exotic spoke
#

Eat a dick ghash. MD isn’t cheap either

It’s no Cali or NY but still expensive

warm plinth
#

People asking me like why don't you buy a house? Because I live in the midwest where it's cheaper to rent 😬

outer dew
#

Well

exotic spoke
#

I was paying 1500 for 1k square foot, 2 bedroom 2 bath washer / dryer

outer dew
#

Tbf doesnt MD have some pretty high incomes too?

warm plinth
#

You live near Baltimore?

outer dew
#

And renting makes it so you dont have to be invested where you're living

exotic spoke
#

That was a bit outside of Baltimore. Middle of nowhere kinda but nice place

#

Now I’m closer to Annapolis

analog swift
#

Baltimore is such ass

#

lived in pigtown for two years in law school

#

was terrible

outer dew
#

But yes ghash

warm plinth
#

I had a WoW meet up in the Balt/Wilmington area

exotic spoke
#

Oof I know that place

warm plinth
#

Back when I first started playing

exotic spoke
#

It’s fucking trash

analog swift

it's 80%murder 20% oldbay

exotic spoke
#

Had a GF that lived in canton

outer dew
#

I pay $645 for a double

#

😂

warm plinth
#

It was really cool. They paid for me to come out and we had like 4 or 5 us from NYC, Philly, etc all meet up there

outer dew
#

And that's cheap for the bay

warm plinth
#

What's a double?

outer dew
#

Shared room with someone else

warm plinth
#

Oh

strong forum
#

yikes

exotic spoke
#

@analog swift you still in the area?

#

DMV area I mean

outer dew
#

Its $2100 for my apartment and that's because of rent control

#

😂

warm plinth
#

I don't even think rent control exists here

#

Even in the city

analog swift
#

outer dew

But yes

analog swift
#

Loudoun for now fairfax probably in a year

outer dew
#

My rent is literally double

exotic spoke
#

I mean I guess novas decent. It’s no Naptown area

warm plinth
#

Not that anyone wants to live in downtown KC unless you're rich

analog swift
#

nova is like the next big thing

#

rent isn't nearly as bad here as it should be tbh

exotic spoke
#

It’s aight

outer dew
#

Tbh if I moved to the midwest

#

Itd be first cheaper living

analog swift

2K for two bedroom in loudoun

Tbf

warm plinth
#

I forgot there was even a general channel in this Discord

outer dew
#

She wants grandkids so who knows

exotic spoke
#

It started off as an innocent discussion about classic vs retail

outer dew
#

And yes, I refuse to be outside of class channels

analog swift
#

yeah working as a personal trainer at the local la fitness was ridiculous.

exotic spoke
#

And it ended up not so innocent

undone sun
#

what other channels

#

🙃

exotic spoke

Lol

outer dew
#

Lmao

#

Does anyone actually use voice

exotic spoke
#

Here? No never joined it

warm plinth
#

Apparently Groggozobul does

outer dew

Clearly it's too spooky to go there, because it might reveal I'm not an asian girl

Who knows

warm plinth

Are there people who don't know you're not an asian girl?

undone sun

And technically not be lying

(Except on the mythic plus friends server his “gf” has the name pinky’s gf and he’s pinky)

warm plinth
#

Yep. And my name is hot pink too

exotic spoke
#

Tbh I’d take mynname in pink instead of slowly moving up the green scale

warm plinth
#

Gotta get super high to not be green anymore lol

exotic spoke
#

I’m just there to talk shit and be bored at work

#

How high is super high?

outer dew

Tbh

#

I've kinda wanted to try weed once

#

But everything about smoking turns me off

warm plinth
exotic spoke
#

Eh, I start being bluish when I get 2100 and that’s not too far away

outer dew
#

2k honestly isn't that hard to reach

warm plinth
#

I thought green kept going for longer than that tbh lol

#

They just use raider.io's score colors I think

outer dew
#

I honestly have an urge to heal

#

But I cant think of any game outside of wow

exotic spoke
outer dew
#

That scratches that

exotic spoke
#

100 points isn’t out of the realm of possibilities when you consider our two lowest dungeons are timed 15 and afte tthat it jumps to like 17s/18s

warm plinth
#

I added like 132 points to my score in like...3 dungeons

#

😄

#

1444 now

exotic spoke
#

They are, however, siege and KR. We do have a shit ton of 19s to run and a 20

warm plinth
#

I was about to say Siege isn't bad then remembered you're alliance

outer dew
#

I mean

#

Even alliance side siege isnt bad

warm plinth
#

Nah but it's definitely worse than horde Siege haha

oblique garnet
#

pepsihands Riki is higher than me

exotic spoke

I mean - at 17+ it gets real cancerous

outer dew

Everyone's higher than you late

Smh

Hi Late!

outer dew

:^)

warm plinth

Even I'm higher than Late

#

In my heart

exotic spoke
#

I want 2500 this season

outer dew
#

Wdym

#

3k or bust

warm plinth
#

What does it take for that? 20s?

exotic spoke
#

That’s my personal goal. I fell just short last season so starting there and then going on

outer dew
#

22s I believe

warm plinth
#

Ah

#

I watched a timed 22 shrine yesterday

#

Pretty awesome

exotic spoke
#

And yeah like 5 19s and 5 20s should be enough

warm plinth
#

They made it look easy.

outer dew
#

But sometimes you never gets good KR/Siege

#

Or your healer doesnt knownhow to bait first boss of FH and watch people get one shot

warm plinth
#

TD is the only dungeon I really don't look forward to. That dungeon just does nothing for me.

outer dew
#

😂

exotic spoke
#

Tofu, I don’t pug. Same 5 people and classes week in and week out

#

That’s all I do when pushing keys

outer dew
#

Smh

warm plinth
#

I think UR is my favorite this expansion so far. Mecha will be better when it's released but UR has the crown for now

outer dew
#

Riki gotta rub it in that I was in the pug life

#

Hate UR

exotic spoke
#

I’ll pug sub 15s

outer dew
#

Pug everything

warm plinth
#

What's your favorite?

exotic spoke
#

Tos or ur. If you asked last season I would have added TD

outer dew
#

Probably atal or wcm

exotic spoke
#

Oh yeah WM is good

warm plinth
#

WCM is interesting. And pretty much always super easy

outer dew
#

Biggest thing about wcm

#

Is dont have retards kicking

#

The channeling on witch

warm plinth
#

lol

outer dew
#

Her channel does fuck all compared to meele

warm plinth
#

Vinetwisters tickle idk what you mean :p

outer dew
#

I'm talking about the random spawn ones

warm plinth
#

I know. They're not all the same though

exotic spoke
#

Don’t worry Late- you still do more dps in m+ and I still ❤ you

#

I need to pull bigger

warm plinth
#

Some do etch, which is probably the one you mean

outer dew
#

Lmao

#

There we go

#

Its etch

#

And iunno

#

I needed to pull smaller

#

I did huge pulls in season 2

#

I dreamed big in season 2 on pull size

warm plinth
#

Vinetwisters are the ones that really truck though. It'll be fun to see what happens when we do our 17 if we get a vine spawn

outer dew
#

Wcm was some of my highest keys

warm plinth
#

Yeah until we timed our 16 UR the other day it was my highest

exotic spoke
#

Wcm was the first high key I did this season

Week 1 did a 17

outer dew
#

Doing a 22 wcm on my bear was a meme last season though

warm plinth
#

And like no affix combo really makes it that bad

#

Grievous is probably worst affix for WCM

outer dew
#

I was taking like 44k a second

#

😂

#

I mean, it depends on route

#

And if you misplay

warm plinth
#

Sure

outer dew
#

Back then the maggots were aids

warm plinth

Maggots don't do on-deaths anymore though so meh

Easy trash

Until they spit on a dps

And you watch them fall over

How to survive Raal trash

Step 1. Don't stand in retch
Step 2. ???
Step 3. Profit

That's true lol

I actually died to that a few weeks ago iirc. Had like 6 or 7 spits on me

Alcohol has extra calories

outer dew

when it comes to certain things

lusty grotto

ahem, vodka and clear alcohol is pretty good

exotic spoke
#

Personal choice

lusty grotto
#

not a lot of calories

exotic spoke

Still has calories

#

And I have a goal to reach

lusty grotto

are you drinking and eating water?

you can't fool me

lmgtfy tofu AA is alcoholics anonymous

lmgtfy?

google that

outer dew

keep giving me new words

Yes, I drink a fuck ton of water.

lusty grotto

for you

but do you eat it too

exotic spoke
#

As ice?

#

Lol

#

No

lusty grotto
#

i mean

#

you have to eat calories

outer dew
#

i'm too poor for ice

#

:^)

lusty grotto
#

🤔

exotic spoke
#

Yes nim. I am but I’ve drastically cut back how much I’m eating, watching portion sizes as well as how often I’m eating and what I’m eating

lusty grotto
#

okay

#

but drinking is drinking

#

besides clear alcohol will get you fucked up on less than beer

exotic spoke
#

Alcohol has more calories that I don’t need right now

#

I’ve never drank a lot of beer. Mostly scotch / whiskey

lusty grotto
#

ok ok well keep at it my good sir

exotic spoke
#

But still it’s something I can cut out for now

Also - when drunk I tend to eat more. So if I want to eat less I should definitely avoid being drunk

lusty grotto
#

i have a secret

#

for you americans

#

not that im not, but you know... territories

#

you can... drink, and not get drunk

#

#

i do it all the time

exotic spoke
#

Yes - I understand this.

#

But the specific context of that statement comes from the topic of “drunk WoW! Take a shot every time you die”

lusty grotto
#

just saying generally

#

every single time i go out drinking with a states friend they get absolutely fucked up

exotic spoke
#

I know. And I didnt usually get drunk.

#

But an extra drink or two a night adds up in terms of calories

lusty grotto
#

honestly though, i can't really drink playing vidya games, i hate it

oblique garnet
#

Its chill

lusty grotto
#

id rather go out for it

#

idk

exotic spoke
#

I played CS better while drinking - to a point

oblique garnet
#

Yeah but going out and drinking out means paying 6times the price of what you can drink at home

exotic spoke
#

After I reached a certain point I either did well and maintained or I drank more and plummeted fast

lusty grotto
#

that's not true late
