yeah guess I should
did a 12 last night again on my baby prot and it wasn't bad but I could totally feel the shield tbh.
Yeah my alliance warrior has a 390 or 395 shield and the only reason I can do 11-12s is because I have like 2 IF and 2 BfI
when that raging kicked in...woooooof
Raging is probably the worst affix for a low shield warrior
That shit will make you cry for mommy
i was spamming my non-existant Soothe button
XD
so i know we don't care about sockets and should equip the highest ilvl, but what about rings?
I'd drop 10 ilevel for a ring if it had a socket as long as I wouldn't lose haste (that's just my feelycraft). For damage, you can sim it but a socket is probably worth a decent bit of ilevel for pure damage
Whats your other trinket?
at least this weeks Affix's arent bad
Which emissary is,it heavy on this week?
tides
aww yeah tides with teeming fort
Ok not bad. Quaking and void a few weeks ago was horrible
@oblique garnet 430 edict atm
its 425 diamond, 430 urchin, 430 edict, 430 block, 430 vial, 430 sporepods, 420 idol
How much is the absorb on 425 diamond?
diamond's real good
430 ilvl edicts fully stacked absorbs 180k ish
@ivory barn imho it's going to be a pretty bad week in some places. Tides + harder hitting trash + more trash on particular packs can be pretty brutal. Top that off with quaking and that could get spicy, imho.
101,680 max absorb on diamond
id run edicts + urchin tbh
every 8.1 gain 20,366 shield
diamonds' gotta ramp tho
both of them gotta ramp
edict's gotta ramp
edicts just ramps up higher
yeah but one ramps positively
diamond absorbs all types
diamond doesn't ramp if you expend it
while edict does
so in actual combat, edict is getting more and more value as you're constantly taking damage, Diamond won't.
so you kinda have to assume edict is going to be ramped vs an unramped diamond, unless you're waiting like ~50+ seconds or whatever the stack cap is on DLRP to get it to ramp
yes it does
no
lol
it's just collecting hps during downtime
yes we all know how it works
now you're just being semantical
lol k
Meh, edicts being able to be specific to magic damage is very nice imo
Let’s get back to the important things - making prot pvp a thing again
Rated pvp*
They nerfed reckless flurry in pvp so that's probably not worth taking anymore, leaving just BfI and I guess bastion
@warm plinth bb what if I don't want to ignore you
Just know I'm a bad woyer
I mean, I didn’t change anything really when I did it Sunday. Took CoF major, VoP and null minor, cyclo, and then put on my single target dps azerite
Went well - out dpsed most of the people or was close other times.
Booming voice instead of devastator yeah?
That talent is so OP
Like 100% uptime on demoshout
Only 400k less damage than an arms warrior against us
I need to start doing pvp for c&s rank 3 :(
That’s why I did it. I was happy it went well ( 11 and 2 record)
If they had melee dps it was a joke for the most part
Hpal started around 1800 and actually made points
So you ran shield bash, the tclap talent, and the demo one?
Yeah
Peels for days
And a good amount of control. With hpal you can chain cc someone for a while. Three stuns, a fear, a repent
I used to do 2s with a destro and if there was melee I'd run bodyguard and bash and demo
He'd just stand there and be a turret with like 60% DR
I run safeguard as a normal talent damn near 100% of the time
What essences are people running in m+ this week?
I have everything r3 going and just unlocked 65 today or will soon, was using cof and sphere for most runs.
Probably VoP null and aegis. If I had everything at rank three I’d mess around with VoP aegis cns
But that’s for push keys
I was thinking vop major. Aegis also since big pulls.
Then either sphere or c and s or lucid. Think null could be better?
I don’t have cns rank three. Null depends on dungeon
Also debating undying major VoP minor and aegis or null
I can’t even remember which one is undying
I finally got my 445 shield with avoidance last week
i usually just chill with vop/lucid/cns or vop/null/cns depending on the dungeon
Well I finally am back up to two bom. But I could use 420 ashvane chest for a third to make vop more useful. Or gamble a chest have 100k was saving it.
@exotic spoke Pvp as prot works really well if you can just cleave both targets in 2s or in 3s always the 2 dps
Yes, most of the time that worked. Originally just started on healer and annoyed the shit out of them if my hpal felt safe with their dps.
But playing against double melee dps was really funny
double melee vs bodyguard xd
I know this to be fact but wanted to verify, as my memory sucks, we always want some form of VoP, Maj/Min, equipped correct?
Yeah
Good deal. I have just about everything R3 and wanted to start pushing keys into the 15+. VOP/aegis/lucid sounds like a possibility.
Is Vers a good stat for us?
I looted a 440 189 Haste 340 Vers ring
not sure if i should replace my haste mastery ring
with a socket lol
Same ilvl?
same ilvl, but the haste mastery has a socket
No
Keep socket
More stats=better
^^
^
yeah i just like that my vers goes up 4% lol
but yeah i was thinkin the socket is better
just overall
I even use a ring without haste because of more stats
Pretty much
I do have a healer that uses artifice of time minor tho
hey i'm trying to get aegis of the deep rank 4
but the speaker utia
that it tells me to go to
only has option for lucid dreams rank 4
rather lucid dreams rank 3
Pretty sure you get Aegis r4 directly from the paragon chest/bag
Only the first 3 are purchased
what is it a random drop or something then?
Yeah it's from the bags you get for going 10k rep past exalted 😦
is there wa weak aura out tehre that can pop something up to let me know avatar is active. for ilke with VOP procs
There are a few in Wago.io that can show that. I use Khakhans to alert me for various CD's.
Welp guys time to stop playing warrior my paladin currently is higher ilvl equipped because RNG
What weapon enchant do y'all think for pushing high keys? I am currently using Force Multiplier but read that Naga Hide is good/better for pushing?
naga definitely isn't the pick
I will stick with Force. I cannot recall where I saw the Naga usage but there were enough of them to warrant me asking here.
Now I just need decent tank trinkets... Using a 440 Alchy Stone and a 440 Barnacle.
@tropic star If you want to specifically track Visions procs, you can make a WA that tracks the Strive for Perfection heal (assuming you have R3) and that'd probably give you a good idea of how much it's proccing
If we are using coral in prot when do we want to use it? Every Avatar?
Assuming no inkpod
What’s a Coral?
Honestly - I don’t know Seregon. I haven’t had one drop yet (still) so haven’t paid much attention to it
I got Rezan 455 no socket Lingering sporepods 455 socket and ritual bandages 440 socket, should I use bandages instead of sporepods?
Just those three rest are 430, 430 jes howlis and 430 waycrest manor
Hmmm probably will just use it every Avatar unless there is some kind of burn phase
Gore crusted? Fuck it use that imo.
I've done WCM so much and never seen that trinket drop :(
Is the gore crusted that good? dang, so which one should I go for my secondary trink?
Thanks, will try those 2 then

wait I also have the vial of animated blood 440
So rezan and gore are prime for prot?
Got unlucky w my prot and got 2 IF and 1 BoM
Animated blood isnalso good
What other trinkets? And not necessarily better - more defensive potentially? I’d have to look at the mat
Sorry I meant what other essences
Fuck - traits
BfI
That’s fine for defensives - what are the other options for BS?
Also, do you have any Deafening crash?
You make due until then.
What are your options other than BS?
Rezans lol
What piece - I can’t remember what rezans does
Soulspun Casque
Skyscorcher Pauldrons
Harpooners Plate Cuirass
are the 3 im running
Rezan's is the single target damage proc iirc
yea
it like spawns little dino
for dmg
I feel the only dmg traits I should take are Heed and OP
Ah fair enough
oh ok word
Single target there are other good options. Shifting sands I think is a good one too
I can't remember the name of the other
Oh yeah, Swirling Sands
That one's good too
man I used to have triple bastion and 1 deafening 1 bs on 415 fear
RIP
In fairness it's worth losing that much ilevel on a piece for DC
RIP
I mean it's not the end of the world; just roll shoulders next time
Like 5 of the 6 possibilities have DC iirc
ight
Make due - that’s about all you can do
Do first boss in EP
Or first couple I should say
ye once my boy gets just gonna full clear
or at least to zaq
So in a perfect world
what are the best traits to have
I know its triple bastion ofc and 1 DC
what are the other 2
im really liking my prot better than brew
For what situation? M+?
Talking defensive or offensive. Cause offensive is going to be different
Also, yeah what content
So those and just 2 other whatever
oh i see
So like what we said, Unstable Flames, Swirling Sands, Blightborne Infusion
Those are just good ones; there are probably a couple I'd avoid if they showed up, like Ruinous Bolt
yep
I dodged that shit with my BS
I just need my edicts
is urchin that good for prot?
or can I go offensive with edicts
i got my urchin but no edicts sadly
Urchin is rated highest overall survivability assuming highest Ilvl
Edicts is third for its ilvl - that said o prefer edicts for m+
One defensive trinket is fine with a more offensive build; won't make or break you for the most part
I like Edicts for M+ too though I don't have one yet. Just because you can make it work solely for magic which is really where we have issues
I tend to use edicts and gore (both 430) right now. I also have urchin
If we have any :p
I didn’t use either last week
is Gore the trink from WC?
Yeah
Yes
Yes
Gore-crusted Butcher's Block
whats that one vial
That's from UR
that increases main stat
I have me a socketed Gore and I love it
Vial of Animated Blood
Vial of animated blood
Less good
I run both a lot
But you said you have a 440 vial vs 430 gore right?
When I pop vial and a str pot during Gore proc I'm around 40+% parry
Fuck my trinket luck this tier. God damnit
Dude that guy that said he had a 455 rezan w/ socket earlier made me tear up a bit
Rezans always has trash uptime when I use it
is rezaans a proc?
Not sure why
Some dungeons I even have 30% on gore
honestly making alts is fucking cancer
What’s an alt
?
a mistake
I agree playing BM was a mistake 😛
You had a choice!
😦
To be fair I’ve played this char since day 1
And after leveling it in vanilla I decided fuck leveling
i made this toon like 3 week ago
19% is pretty shit uptime lol
maybe 4
I’ll do it when I get home. But it’s either close to or more likely over 550
Though 200 ish was at 60
That pvp grind life - where it was 30 minute queues for a 10 minute match.
So I wasn’t really playing per se
Part of me is glad that I lost my original account because I'm scared of how much time /played I have 😂
Why worry. would I change it if I could? In hindsight yeah. But what’s done is done. No reason to feel bad about it
I wouldn't change it even i don't think. I've always been good about taking breaks when the game bored me
So if I was playing, I was having fun
I would. At least the pvp grind
Well, had I done that I may feel similarly
But I have always been a dungeon person, since my first character
Would have been fucking faster to grind gold
430 Dream's End or 445 Cudgel of Correctional Oversight?
445 without a doubt
for M+: pick 2 minors: conflict r2, lucid r3, aegis r3
nullification dependent on dungeon
no sphere?>
sphere is dogshit
Harsh bro
RIP ping
@undone sun ez
C'mon Kaege they have quotes now
Link it
idk how to do them
Just put a space between the arrow and the word
And man, this pot so pretty
All the soup and sauce I'm gonna make
is prot war best mt for m za'qul?
Quick question - Does prot typically prioritize iLevel over traits for Azerite?
yes
Kk. I'd be swapping out a Brace for Impact and Iron fortress for a Callous Reprisal and Bloodsport, is why I asked - I know those are generally worse traits
The second two I mean
what garbage ass piece has CR AND BS?
wait there is literally no piece in the game that you pick those 2 in unless your gear is hyper scuffed
So I have A Warhelm of Dread Waters w/ Crash and Bastion, and 430 shoulders with Brace and Fortress. I got some 445 shoulders w/ Crash and bloodsport as the two best
So swap crash on the helm out for Callous and take the Bloodsport and Deafening Crash 445 insterad of the 430 shoulders
Sorry that was a bit confusing haha
okay do a /simc
go in raidbots top gear
and then screenshot
so I can see what traits you have
because I got confused
Nah no worries lol
are all of those raid azerite or do you have vendor azerite as well?
you might be missing something important here
Raid and Vendor
horned horror shoulders have CR + BS
i know cuz i got them this week :)))))))))))))))
genuinely just trying to help here
ah i found it, imaging it bigger than it is. think it's a 20qt @outer dew
Pica
couldn't find a tape measure to cross reference the dimensions
And yes. Most people dont need bigger than 20
That’s some high quality p(r)ot right there Thyme
👌
I didn’t see yours o just pulled this up
That too is a high quality p(r)ot!
but we all know who riki likes more
lmao
😏
That’s the official reddit scale
don't have any bananas nor was i going to bring it inside just for a pic
But this is discord
Mine always go up because all I do is win. I’m like the 🙌 in the 80s
👀
Lol
that's disrespectful
for w
why can't w have it's own sound
why can't it be called the wuh
Maybe it started out As uu
or something
a w doesn't even sound like a u
But Thyme do you know about The U?
no
also just found something fascinating, the W was made to replicate what was uu in roman english
so double u is fitting
Yes it is
similar to how germans have the ss/ß
The university of Miami - The U
Miami Hurricanes - football is life back then
The Rock played there too!
@outer dew do you follow sports?
Or are you like Thyme
a nerd?
😑
I don’t watch pro football- I watch Miami football and hockey
Dude, I’m a nerd - but I like some sportsball too
at most i watch baseball, but im still not that big into it
not really
It’s not your fault you weren’t exposed to it growing up - I forgive you Thyme
whenever i tried out for a sport
Fair - oddly enough my dad isn’t
my dad told me i was shit
i remember vividly sunday football
i played baseball for 7 years
Hockey though - an ex introduced me to that.
And I loved it
Fast, hard hitting, and exciting. Didn’t hurt that those years were really good for my local team
And I got a lot of tickets through work
we don't have lacrosse in my town
so never got to try
my cousin played for many years
lmao
i left high school early because i wanted to do CC
but the second I left
they introduced lacrosse to my old HS

🤣
tbh
I probably
would of stayed in HS
just to play lacrosse and meme
lmao
but i learned the hard way
my helmet size is 4xl
big boy
when i first did MSF
4xl helmet needed
and when in lacroose
they took 2 2xl helmets
and fitted them together to fit my head
lol
Lol
is there a consensu damage trinket for M+ 10-12 if stacking 2 defensive isn't necessary?
consensus*
definitely not necessary, would factor more on your own comfortability but 95% of the time trinkets wont make the different between life or death
Yeah I am being told I'm taking almost no damage so I want to swap out for a damage trinket, I have all of them at 430, just not sure if there is a one-size-fits-all for damage trinket from the prot position
depends
razor coral sims highest but doesn't seem great for M+?
fuck coral in mplus
It's so much worse than anything else
its garbage in practice
How can you even gauge how much DPS it gave you? You can track the damage it actually did but you can't easily factor how much the crit helped you
What do y'all run in M+ when looking to add some dps from the trinket slot? I was looking at briny or maybe the cyclotronic?
does gutripper damage stack with multiple traits?
Yes.
ty
Don't run cyclo, you'll die
You can't block while channelling
nothing spoken was ever more true
It's such a trap
You're a trap
oh no i'm in full agreement. tried it in a few keys thinkin hey this'll be gre... o god wut have i done
@warm plinth that's an insult
Is it?
Haha ok. Cyclo goes back to the raid parse pile.
Traps are homosexual
😬
Oh blade
455 bracers from my cache wooooooo
Big
this game really doesn't want me to play my war
fucking got a net gain of Speed in my war's cache
Gotta go fast
so at least it understands that part about me
but the fact that it's like the ONE fuckign item on my warrior that got TF'd....that stings
everything else is like 420ish and my bracers are 440.....so ofc I get the same bracers but with Speed
You're mad at a 15 ilevel upgrade?
3 TR rolls, 3 turrrrribble azerite pieces.
noo it was a 0 ilvl upgrade
my bracers were the only piece that was 440....so i got the same ones at 440 but with Speed
Oh I thought you said you had 440 and got 455?
Oh
its my war that got screwed
Be grateful for your speed Blade
wanna talk speed? in feral, my base movespeed is like 55%
perma sprint
it's amazing
Nice
never noticed it until I finally got to dps and i'm running circles around these other folks
Speed is the best stat
what essences do we use on zaqul offtanking
Nice
Thanks Blade
Gorgonzola*
i feel like orgo pumps so warriors would be suited for that initial spike.
but im prob the last person to ask about this haha
@strong forum What tanks do you use for orogoza
ooo I know this! warriors and bears! (his guildie posted a kill vid in the bear discord)
one of the bears was the add tank
def saw Nom MT'ing it at some points
can't miss that OG troll warrior look
Think its usually 3 thanked. have BDK, Druid, prot
it can be 2tanked with a couple monks
but that's p much the only way
any ol 3tank combo will do tho
I have a 445 razdunks from my chest today
We dont have two monks 😛
It actually sims ok for aoe
But do any of you guys use that ?
I have 440 vial, 430 gore with socket, 445 edict with socket, 430 rezans
what content
why stop there
@exotic spoke
How I feel when you dont invite me for keys
Tbh
When are you free for keys bb
Alright i just got volontold to tank orgozo, what do
Well except monday and wed nights
Besides that, if you throw me a
"Do keys"
I'll probably answer the call
yes
I think my mom is happier I got this stock pot
no balls - rely on your base mastery
Than I am
muy importante
She's trying to get me to feed myself. More than me
does undulating tides stack?
And wow, is there an actual active mitigation check
I thought they removed those after legion
@Thyme#3023 should I bake some brownies?
No, don't think it's an actual one
@undone sun
Weird
Makes sense to me
Yeah but it's not mechanically an active mitigation check
Warriors have a lot of shit that'll truck them if you don't have SB/Bolster up
Doesn't mean they're AM checks :p
Yea
But getting knocked off
Is a check
If the difference between getting yeeted off a platform or not
Is that how it works? I haven't heard any talk of them before?
Is if you have your SB on
Iunno
If you tell me that you get knocked
And the solution is have SB up
It sounds like an am check
I agree
@exotic spoke explain the mechanic to me
But didn't think there was anything like that
Oh
I'm miss reading it
Thought you get yeeted off if you didn't smack
No, you just get fucked
I understand now
Orogoza ?
All good
I misread
Thought the boss yeeted you off the platform
Tbh I kind of miss AM checks
I think there are some psuedo ones
lol they got rid of AM checks since Legion
Like things that if you don't have it up will fuck you up
But no extra effects obviously
yeah, that's diff tho. The extra punishment for failing was the key
which, tbh, I wish they went more in on.
less auto-pilot AM and more conscious choices of using it
I know it's different; just saying there are some with kind of the same concept. Like if you don't have SB up for Blade Combo you're going to die
yes
is it worth taking over tidal surge?
imho it's kinda a bait trait but ymmv
how are those the two traits ur debating between
Extra damage? Sims says undulating but wanted a second opinion
what's your prot option
if ur looking for a damage upgrade only just follolw what the sim says imo
undulating is also kinda a bait in sim
Then go with undulating if that’s what sims says and that’s your goal then sure
What are your other options though
it'll always sim high. Problem is that it also assumes you don't proc it
then it's value tanks
Yeah it sims high because you don't ever drop that low in sims
to where it would disable for 45 seconds
430 edict with avoidance and a socket better than a 400 diamond lace? This is a dumb question right?
From what I remember arcane heart is a
trait
It's not a great trait. Though I imagine as gear gets better, it'll get better (though I think that's one of the "raid" traits so it probably won't be on higher ilevel azerite in the future)
the healing and damage components are taken into account separately, which makes it kinda poopy
For someone just returning and building ap up, and only has access to two essences, for raiding what would be the second one..the rage refund or the null dynamo?
(doing heroic atm)
lucid dreams if you dont have null r3
but it doesn't matter much mind you
can go one or the other, doubt you'll notice a difference
naw there's no way I'd have the faction for null 3 yet. (is that faction based?)
VoP is relatively quick to obtain
yeah I have vision of perfection rank 1.
Just do chests every day for your world quest (where possible)
that's basically the 'main' essence forever...atm right?
You get an extra few oscillator per week
youll get to exalted before you have all the oscillators
do the higher ranks cost more oscillators?
Yes
damn I shouldn't have made that ring then; it was already worse than what I had.
Xd
Double
so the rage refund one then for now.
the blueprint for r2 of VoP..is that actually tinkering or does pascal king make it?
right..but it says 'tinkering' as the profession for it. Does Pascal King make it, or do you actually have to be a tinker?
👀
yes
I've called engineering tinkering since I've played wow due to everquest..so the distinction actually matters now unfortunately lol.
Gratz.
Thanks! they feel so good
except on behemoth something weird happened and the fish cucked me by going intermission at 30.5%. Had coral popped and then he didnt take the inkpod damage
I'm still on the hunt for my Inkpod. 😦
Double on-use is annoying me far too much.
😂
double on use on warrior is easy don't @me
Proved by the Internet.
i'm not an expert, BUT
but
To be continued
For m+ why is one of the top warriors running merektha’s fang?
?
Is it strong offensively but just sims badly?
He’s running alchemist stone + merekthas fang(from temple) if that matters
He sometimes runs inkpod + merekthas fang
You're getting this from raider.io?
If yes then remember that it'll show the trinket you use when ever you log out.
Merekthas is purely for damage, if he's using it then he is cosplaying as a bdk
I’m not sure if it’s hidden op in aoe
I’ve just never seen anyone run it
He also runs conflict major and I’ve seen a few other warriors jump on the bandwagon too
Well that's just horrible.
Conflict makes sense since you can literally kite and take no damage and the vers is pretty big also
Pretty sure he's memeing.
The conflict or the merekthas fang?
Should i put a 450 chest with BFI / Bloodsport or a 435 with IF / BOM ?
Unless he's uploaded vids of runs with that setup I call memes on that
Merekthas is really good aoe, but also a death sentence in any size pull that makes it good enough to use
Cause I’m 99% sure conflict major is legit, I’m not soo sure about fang though
With treants it might be ok to channel
Conflict major is very good in something like ToS eye room on necrotic
Hmm I’m thinking of just running it regardless of affix
It’s more consistent and the vers is massive in some keys
Boy wish I had rank 3
its not that hard to get tbh
as long as you have a 50% win rate you can grind out the rating in less than a week
CnS major feels good to play with wym
actually you can prob do that in a day lol, depends how much you wanna play
I need 15 thingies to get rank 3 yeah? And you get like 4 a week at around 1600 rating
Hmm
But yeah I feel like prot war aoe is just lacking hard compared to brews at this point - I’m thinking of pushing but kinda demotivating when brews do the same thing but with more utility
Now I just need to find an arena partner
I'm sorry..what?
Generally brews with cns major outdamages prot warrior
Pretty sure brew has similar st damage
Wym?
Not aoe
oh you mean hot trub abuse
I’m like 100% sure brew does more aoe, it’s not even arguable
that will only get you so far in keys tbh, p sure no one pushing hard uses cns major

could be wrong tho
@ionic fern 😂
How do these guys do like 60k hps on h zaqul? Are they going into delerium realm?
DPS*
leech 
At this point we need a separate emoji for leech.
A pepeg emoji holding a siphoning enchant
hi guys quick question 430 bastion/fortress or 445 clap/fortress i have 2 claps and only one other bastion
What's the other choice on the 445 except for clap?
@exotic spoke our comp is scuffed AF, its me and 2 guardian druids
today
is the day
I am buying specific shoulders
I am getting kraken shell
3bom/2ms/1dc dream
2ms?
exactly like that
hm..why is Force Multiplier recommended over Naga Hide, for weapon enchantment?
Naga hide bad
why's that?
proc absorbs are bad in general since they can be wasted if they proc at the wrong time, the proc rate is bad, the amount it absorbs is teeny, secondary gain from force mult does way more defensively
excessive turtling is bad in general and almost always unnecesary
k; since it triggers from defensive abilities it sounds like it would trigger a lot less than a standard on attack proc.
it's not that
if something triggers of block it would have the highest proc rate on a warrior
it's just a shit procrate in general in this particular case
and afaik
your own absorbs trigger the icd
What’s the best race for us rn
don't quote me on that though
if you have to ask, it really doesn't matter @verbal python
races have almost 0 impact
the dwarves have a racial that is situationally broken
but other than that, it doesn't matter
Which dwarfs
normal
both of them
Lul
DiD has the benefit of a dps gain from it
reg dwarf has a small def cd in in it
the broken component is being able to remove bleeds really
Which one removes more
both dwarfs remove, bleed, curses, poison, magic and diseases
big saving man
at this point i should've done the same
bought 3 shoulders so far and im 2.5k off of the next ones
2x cthraxxi 1x horned horror... fucking disgusting
go fury
2 x cthraxxi omg
ima quit the game before going fury
lmao remind me to play as prot so i can get bis fury/arms pieces
there is only ONE thing that can beat that
abyssal?
same chest, same shoulders + abyssal
ye
because you get IV>RP
you're sad
tru
bulwark
YIKES
thats such an amazingly useless trait
idk why it still exists
or use impending victory
LAMO
LAMO to you too good sir
Smooth.
just open chests and #pray
oof
how do you still need rep at this point tho 🤔
I didn't roll tank until 3 weeks into tier and I can't play monday-friday
because I work 12 hours
and I neglected it because I hang out withfriends
off raid
Still have pretty good logs with no null, 430 trinkets and weapon
And no 65 neck
But that ends this Thursday 
I'm still at 63 as well..should probably step it up for the last 2 levels.
I have 3 at 65🤔
Nerd
My Pawn keeps telling it's a 12% upgrade (I generated stats via simc and raidbots). But is it? I lose 1.90 vers when I equip it. Pawn always leave me in doubt.
lmao, I'm a newbie, don't have the mindset of the game yet, so I rely on addons unfortunately
Socket > 10 ilvl from a output perspective
From a survival perspective its close
Pawn will show you output data for that single point in time the string was generated
The values on the string change for every single item..therefore it's useless to follow
Very quick tldr of gearing from blood in acherus:
if it's higher ilvl on offset pieces, equip it
if it's more than 5 on rings for haste/versa over crit/mastery, equip it
if it's more than 10 and dropping socket on rings, equip it
if it's more than 15 and dropping socket and dropping bis stats on rings, equip it
if it's 15 on azerite equip it
All the rules apply to prot (unless you dont have triple BoM)
sockets are insanely strong on rings
They giant
humongous
Ur humongous
anyone wanna run double prot 2s for C&S later tonight?
not opposed to triple prot 3s
Pretty sure it's limited to 1 tank per team
Same as its limited to 1 healer per team
What’s up
for m+ tanking is it still 1 DC and then 3 BM or IF
Yeah 1 DC, 3 BoM, and pick two isna very strong set up
isna == is a with an n instead of a space because of mobile texting
Is a*
damn im good
so what else should i add besides 1 dc and 3 BM
And you pick two based on what’s available. BfI / IF if you need more defensives and they are both solid

Some of the other traits can be good that are on specific pieces - such as shifting sands
some generic traits are starting to be better than some Prot traits too, like Meticulous schemeing
And bullfango was exactly correct - I’m on mobile
👏
I havent played this toon in a while so im trying to get setup again this is my azerite
Im trying to find out what to use
for m+ tanking and occasional raid
IDK the difference in uptime /ppms; but my gut says bleak water > C'thraxxi, taking bom + bbi
HArbormaster helm: literally anything there
MetSchem very good, 3rd bom very good, losing if for bfi to get stronger 2nd rings is worth it imo
chest piece is fine imo
Cthraxxi is really good for raids / parsing / dps in raids. because of shifting sands and reckless flurry
That’s not a bad set up for now while you get better azerite pieces
^ honestly if you have 1 DC; you're good to tank +10s while you grind 445s
