I personally like VoP major, ageis minor, null minor for m+
And CoF major, null minor, vop minor for mythic EP
Unless Iโm tanking adds on orogozoa in which case I use my m+ build
candid path
gus is correct, although you can do C&S minor instead of aegis minor for M+
onyx vessel
I cant go cof cuz id for sure rip off my cotank everytime
candid path
or instead of null if it's a mostly-physical M+ dungeon
nah, go CoF and Devastator and push the threat table up faster

Cant
Monk tank parses like under 20 every time

"i'm playing defensively"
no yo're not

like warrior. ok you're using rage on IP not revenge, holding demo shout a little bit etc. etc.
prot pally, ok not running seraphim i get it

agree
analog swift
but monks doing low dps are just not hitting their 3 button rotation
little sun
I question what that brew is actually doing.
analog swift
the ONLY difference is priotizing keg smash (defensive) vs. black out strike
which blackout strike is also good defense too for overall mitigation
i had a brewmaster try to app for my guild "I do low dps because I focus more on playing defensively"
asked her how she would play her spec offensively
she had no response
analog swift
so bad
also monks are the ones that can get away with cyclo the best
oh noooooo i didn't doge purifies
playing monk this tier because my guild needed the debuff, and i'm having a blast just having silly parses
little sun
yep, though i will admit doing keys on my warrior feels better most of the time.
analog swift
oh yeah
took me awhile to get used to my monk (had to focus on one for a bit w/ the ap grind)
but now i enjoy it because your defensive cds feel more valuable
like on my warrior i'd always cringe hard when i'd run into a triple caster pack in td
because missed waterblasts would eat my soul, with my monk i'd pop dampen harm and be ok

@oblique garnet logn reply, not really, as warrior you're just leaving up your physical mitigation, pretty much with one spell reflect. whereas on a monk you have dampen harm fort brew and zen med plus expel harm /shrug

aside from dailies/wq's theres 3 summonable rares with items (chum, pickaxe, seeds), mardivas's lab once a week, lost algan mobs drop pearls as well, and theres also the big untargettable tree giants that can be activated with certain conditions
without the tree giants you can get around 25-35/day excluding mardivas that's once a week
also check murloc trader for the pearl item (gives 7 iirc)
it's on the hidden list so you need the cloak

@brittle owl how long does that usually take

idk i don't really time myself
could do it in 30 mins if you giga efficient i think

mastery stacking bears in warmode with Den Mother pvp talent I'm guessing

dk's dh's and bears can all pass 1 mil hp in certain scenarios with anime

if it doesn't crit, and you have stupid haste/vers diamond can still out heal it but its a decent trinket when taking constant dmg

@flat jackal itโs also a) a smart heal and b) not a shield (so works better with our mitigation)

What do you mean by point b? Do shields and mitigation work differently?
undone sun
sick sentinel
@sand egret did you see my thicc absorbs?
brittle owl
there is literally no situation where a heal is better than an absorb regardless of the type of mitigation
sick sentinel
Taking damage and mitigating means our ip is working
If it's absorbed then our ip doesn't
sand egret
against high rates of damage it smoothes damage out better. ticking shields just get gobbled in front of IP, while the heal itself is being applied after it goes through IP.
as well as urchin provides ~ 3.3k hps at 430 while a DLRP provides ~ 2k hps at the dame ilvl, which is very hard to get
sand egret
one thing I haven't actually looked at yet is if the tick rate of Urchin also scales with haste
(as DLRP does, but isn't documented)
that would put my calcs higher, but yeah I wasn't accounting for haste

You're always a 3 sec interval

M+ will always have this problem as long as they scale keys in the way that they do. Here's to hoping they'll go all in next expac and have a more robust scaling system (that isn't just "does X more damage until it is just a binary mechanic")
it's a huge ask, but honestly it'd prob add more legs to the game than another raid boss or two, imho.

mostly because getting 2 seconds of SI as the major proc....blows
WOOO MITIGAโ oh the mobs are dead
โoh the boss is castingโ, etc. lol

the irony is that due to EW (bearโs talent to get Block) and Thrashโs interaction, Incarn procs are actually a defensive boost that prob matches/surpasses the previous iteration lol
analog swift
I was listening to titanforged podcast the other day, and a really good suggestion was to have damage and health scale differently
Have like health continue scaling the way it does and then have damage scale just a little bit less
sand egret
oh for M+?
yeah, that'd be the a low-budget way. One issue with that (that you see in many other games) is that you get "bullet-sponges". Yazma already feels like that lol
analog swift
yeah true

which, to be fair, isn't all bad

just cut em both in half and apply both of them or something
i've started to hate tyrannical weeks because holy fuck the bosses take SO long
also interesting would be ot have fort/tyr not affect damage, the dungeon already scales those
sand egret
Yeah, personally, I want to see a ratchet effect happen at +15 dungeons (or where ever the "bar" is set, but +15 is for the achieve). Specifically, the actual dungeons/encounters get a new mechanic or something (with a higher reward payout, equal to Mythic raid gear).
analog swift
M++
analog swift
have a fourth affix for 15+ actually would make a ton of sense
sand egret
i want the affix to be dungeon-specific though imho
analog swift
well the affix could be "bosses and mobs gain new abilities" or w/e
call the affix "challenger"
could be small but soemthing like first boss TD summons twice as many mosquitos or w/e
heart stopper ticks faster
brittle owl
having boss abilities be more dangerous is almost the same as just giving a flat dmg increase
it's just discretionary, but in the end, same
sand egret
i disagree
brittle owl
new abilities would be cool, but i don't see how you'd implement that properly
sand egret
take the case that started it, Kragg
thereโs a huge difference between 1-shots and Double Tap: Kragg fires a second shot at the last target shot for 50% damage.
brittle owl
myeah i guess
but idk, that feels more like a bandaid
more complex/different affixes are needed tbh
and not just affixes that hinder
sand egret
i mean, its the opposite of a bandaid
brittle owl
risk/reward ones would be cool

yeah, kiss/curse ideas are sweeeet

yeah of course, question is if its worth the investment vs say, another raid boss
brittle owl
it's defo worth it and they're separate teams i think
i don't think they cannibalize eachother on dev time
sand egret
def does
maybe not directly, but thereโs always that cost. An encounter designer is the same regardless of the team.
brittle owl
๐คท
sand egret
just depends on how they wanna staff that team

yeah, for sure. I'd be surprised if they don't go more into M+ next expac in a more "official" manner. Like, I'd bet money they try their own "r.io" system in-game.

it makes my stomach hurt thinking about it lol
@frosty holly never heard of that either, perhaps there is some sort of DR on the ability but that is a unique situation i suppose.
i know that i have heroic throw killed a LOT of them in every key i do
i wanta say it feels like 20 but it's probably more like 10 a pull
@analog swift Thats crazy man, Tyr weeks have always been my favorite and the best time to push. Sometimes I wonder ( i have not done the necessary math) if the health bosses gain on tyr weeks is less than the total amount of health adds gain on fort weeks. Which is why I always seem to time tyr weeks easier than fort weeks.

@hasty nova i've found that Tyr are better for pushing timewise for dungeons, however in terms of timed/depleted ratio i'd bet that fort wins compared to tyr esp now that the scaling is getting crazy.
But yeah lets say trash makes up 75% of the time in a dungeon. Increasing their health by 20% is effectively 15% more health through the dungeon.
Whereas lets say bosses take 25%, you've only increased 5% of the total health you have to fight throughout the dungeon
hasty nova
Yeah a lot of wonky things start happening when the scale gets to 19,20,21's. I actually got halfway through a 22 once, but we could not kill boss 2 of sots tyr.
sick sentinel
Funny how the meta swapped considering in Legion, Tyran weeks were aids
hasty nova
so i will say that is one thign fort has in it's favor
u can actually complete the dungeon
some weeks on tyr if ur group isn't the right comp or playing sync'ly enough.... you just can't get through a boss lmao

@frosty holly 100% you stop proccing VR after a while
frosty holly
Cheers Ticks
glad sparrow
Had the same scenario it does seem to proc again after a bit but not on every spore
frosty holly
Survived for about maybe 30 sec after they stopped because i had all cds. Never started again ๐ but we did kill it pull after so whatever ๐
glad sparrow
Yeah I was barely able to solo it after every one died. Probably for the best we cant infinite VR. Even for the duration it lasts is pretty OP
warm plinth
That's odd. Never had that happen and I don't want to talk about the number of times I've soloed Dresaron using VR in Legion lol.

Last boss underrot is that way. Dip low? Throw a hammer at a balloon.
warm plinth
Yeah think that's the one he was talking about
But he said VR stopped proccing after a bit
ivory barn
would best stats for the crafted legs be haste>vers?
glad sparrow
Perhaps is less about it not proccing due to duration but perhaps the amount of procs within a certain time. Though you'd be virtually unkillable if it kept procing
sick sentinel
haste>vers for raiding but Haste>crit for mplus
but I would keep any legs with haste on them

No

sim wise
Even in the occasion that zaqul sims higher, you don't use it in queens court or mplus
But still, ilvl on weapons is super important
Probably should let me finish my thought lol

@ivory barn youโd be fine dropping haste on a ring if you get more stats, nothing has really changed on that front some people have personal preference to not do so but youโre not going to be any worse off for doing it

warm plinth
@ivory barn If you're referring to the artifact knowledge, it's 30% reduction in cost per level. However, when the new week hits, your current progress is adjusted to be at the same percentage of the level that you were before the new level of artifact knowledge hit (e.g. if Monday I was at 30% of the way through 57, then on Tuesday after reset I will still be at 30% of the way through 57, but I'll have less AP to go). So if you have AP quests or missions that you can turn in after the week starts, you should do so because you'll get more progress out of the same amount of AP that way.

My prediction, but I'm right

Depends on the context. There's a bird pet or something like that in-game named Pepe. It's also the character in these emotes 
Just want everyone to know that I hope I'm wrong about what affixes we're gonna have in 50 minutes.
