Some people don’t enjoy raiding. Some don’t enjoy M+
Some don’t enjoy pvp

But no other system has had their reward design changed so drastically with the changes this patch IMO

#

It’s not a matter of ease Nike.

#

The game isn’t hard. The game has never really been hard

nova gale
#

I agree that it was almost the other way around last season

#

you kinda had to m+ to get the best gear for raiding

#

and you had to do +10s.

exotic spoke
#

DH still do

sick sentinel
#

Prots still do

warm plinth
#

Why you gotta mention that Riki

nova gale
#

I suggest just up the rewards for 25s or smth

sick sentinel
#

Your bis stuff is from M+

exotic spoke
#

Cause you don’t raid ghash

nova gale
#

+20 is 470

#

+25 is 475

#

fixed

exotic spoke
#

It’s a lot less important for tanks Nike

sick sentinel
#

It's just as important as any other; and the point still implies. Your BIS stuff is from M+

#

same as fury, furys gear comes from M+

#

and arms

nova gale
#

even if its 10 ilvl lower?

exotic spoke
#

This has been gone over many times before

Sorry, how are you defining prots BiS?

sick sentinel
#

Defensively and offensively

exotic spoke
#

What stats?

sick sentinel
#

Stats?

#

What stats

exotic spoke
#

Yeah, what stat priorities are you using as your guideline for what should be bis

#

For prot

sick sentinel
#

I'm not using ANY stat priorities

#

I said

#

Azerite

nova gale
#

wait, we talking about azerite now?

exotic spoke
#

At no point did you mention Azerite

#

Until just then

sick sentinel
#

When I say bis stuff

#

why would I talk about "stats"?

#

Of course I meant azerite

exotic spoke
#

No, it wasn’t obvious

warm plinth
#

🤔

sick sentinel
#

Why would prots care about stats

exotic spoke
#

Could be trinkets could be stat pairs at certain Ilvl. Could be weapons / shields whatever

#

Cause more haste is more better (assuming equal Ilvl). Because I want crit too

sick sentinel
#

I'm not assuming ilvl

#

have you seen the 485s that drop from last boss?

exotic spoke
#

And technically, for azerite pieces - you don’t need to do m+ at all

sick sentinel
#

for prot

#

It's actually gross

nova gale
#

So wtf we talking about here 😄

exotic spoke
#

I’m honestly lost as you’re bouncing from topic to topic

sick sentinel
#

I'm talking azerite

#

always been from the start

nova gale
#

We have never talked about azerite

sick sentinel
#

I am

#

with the correlation

#

of having to do M+ to obtain those items

exotic spoke
#

Then you should clarify and specify because no one else understood that

nova gale
#

Oh well 🙂

exotic spoke
#

But you don’t have to do M+ for those 😛

#

It may be faster - but you certainly don’t have to do them

nova gale
#

residuum I suppose

exotic spoke
#

Yessir

nova gale
#

Not sure when I got bracer and belt azerite tho

#

maybe something new

exotic spoke
#

Lol

#

Touché

#

I agree with what you’re saying Bromigo. It was talked about a bunch in the time leading up to the patch. Removing Titanforging (good or bad - thaTs a different conversation) was going to have lasting effects on M+ rewards

Maybe they got it right, maybe they didn’t. But it certainly feels like I need to mythic raid this tier instead of wanting to mythic raid last tier

There’s a difference there in consumer perception which is important

nova gale
#

Yeah. It feels like a shitty patch to come back to if you only wanna do m+ like me

exotic spoke
#

I think it’ll be good

#

For a couple reasons

#

Despite all that

nova gale
#

I guess I will give it a go

#

I'm jus super scared im gonna start looking for a raiding guild

exotic spoke
#

A, prots already very defensive. So being a little slower to gear up isn’t the end of the world

#

B - the raid BoE items include a shield which huge defensively

nova gale
#

Oh shit

#

That's pretty big tbh

exotic spoke
#

So if you have gold and bad luck you can remedy your bad luck

#

C - dps wise (since our survivability is mostly dictated by proper play) Corruption will play a huge role in that

nova gale
#

How many pieces can you craft?

#

still two for BS and one for JC?

exotic spoke
#

Two for BS. So while you may not be as defensive you can be pretty Tanky and get more chances at better corrupted gear and output more damage

nova gale
#

What slots can you craft for BS and what pieces are BoEs? if you dont mind me asking (if you know)

exotic spoke
#

Oh I think there’s a BoE ring too

#

Legs and belt for Bs

#

I can’t remember for the boes other than shield and I think ring

nova gale
#

Tbh, then its super fine

exotic spoke
#

But good luck getting those corrupted

#

If you wanted them

nova gale
#

ye well since someone mentioned you could only realistically wear two currpoted pieces?

exotic spoke
#

Depending on the pieces you could wear more. Less powerful pieces have less corruption. And as you progress you get more resistance and can wear more

#

Then, after you mess around with M+ - you can decide if and when you want to raid and find the right guild (if you choose to)

#

But, while I shared the same thoughts you did, I’ve felt better as the patch approached and more info came out about the BoEs, details about corruption, etc

#

So I’m pretty optimistic about it all

#

And I hope you are too man

nova gale
#

Aight, thanks for changing my mind and ruining my life

exotic spoke
#

Well shit. When you say it like that

nova gale
#

Was so close to uninstalling. Damn you

exotic spoke
#

You’re welcome... I guess?

#

Lol

nova gale
#

xD

exotic spoke
#

Skyhold, icy veins (now updated by Mwahi), are some great places for warrior specific info. Reddit can have some information that’s good. But watch out for that Riki guy. He can be a jerk

undone sun

exotic spoke
#

Sorry, NotRiki

#

Now, I should head to bed. I got distracted by this after talking to Mwahi.

So nighto!

sick sentinel
#

play with CNS major and experience the vers pipes

main ember
#

Whats considered the best guide for prot m+?

sick sentinel
#

Is there even a guide

#

Just learn how to play your spec to the fullest and learn routes on your own and you'll gain experience

#

watch streamers

#

so with formless void, does it even copy irus beam?

ionic fern
#

Yes.

#

But you can't block during it so be careful.

main ember
#

There is a guide on wowhead. I just wanted something to get me going with the "best" default settings..

ionic fern
#

Is that the Lepan one?

gaunt dawn
#

Lepan quit ages ago 👀

ionic fern
#

Yeah, but his 42.5% mastery story remains.

gaunt dawn
#

last update from Lepan on that was 28 March 2019

#

might wanna ask yo boi @candid path about that

candid path
#

HEY, I'M FARMIN AP OVER HERE!

ionic fern

Busy man.

gaunt dawn

ionic fern

Imagine being 71 neck level

gaunt dawn

and farming AP without a guild? or did you find a new home?

I'm not 80, I'm not done.

nova gale

Oh shit, i thought you ment that picture as a "vacatioN".

#

But it's ment as Islands-.

So wouldn't call it sandbagging.

I'm busy farming for lucid dream essence, aegis of the deep, nullification dynamo

#

ionic fern

Hey, at least the requirements got nerfed.

nova gale

Ye, otherwise I'd never come back

ionic fern

Tho, soon i'll get more time to play WoW so i can get that 75 neck. deswind

going away on vacation for 10 days on monday

#

errant oriole
#

hey guys is the nulification dynamo really that good?

nova gale
#

rank 3 is great dmg vs magic dmg afaik

ionic fern
#

Jeah,you should definitely get it at r3. 🙂

errant oriole
#

i have it at rank 2 atm

nova gale
#

Get them mechagon wq's done 🙂

errant oriole
#

my BDK has rank 3 😛 so does my monk but my guild wanted a prot war so here i am lol

#

so i was lookin at tank notes and i hope prot wars are going to get trucked this new raid

#

O_O

ionic fern
#

Wait, you HOPE we are going to get trucked?

#

😂

errant oriole
#

wait... oh arent lmao

#

woops its late im sorry haha

ionic fern
#

No, that's Late.

errant oriole
#

lol

#

but for real i saw some of the bosses had some magic dmg is that gonna be a burden that is gonna make prot wars work harder than the other tanks?

ionic fern
#

But don't worry. We'll be fine. There's still enough physical damage that we excell at and we have more than enough tools to deal with Magic damage.
Just get r3 of null as well and it'll be fine.

#

Remember that all tanks struggle with magic damage.

#

We won't have to "work harder". If you know when to use what CD wise you'll be fine.

errant oriole
#

ah alright

#

my other option would be to go guardian druid buuuut they less cd's than wars O_o

ionic fern
#

They'll be fine as well. 🙂

errant oriole
#

oh nice nice btw is using devastator more of dps increase vs booming voice? where as BV is more defensive?

ionic fern
#

Devastator should be used ONLY for ST damage purposes.

#

BV is the better option offensively as soon as a 2nd target comes into play - it also provides you with more rage if used properly (on CD).

errant oriole
#

ah ok thats what i figured

#

also what are you guys using for a 4th essence? i don thave mine unlocked yet but i just wanna get a good idea

ionic fern
#

Depends what content are we talking about.

nova gale
#

Oh fuck I just realised I dont have conflict and strife

errant oriole
#

er raid wise content

ionic fern
#

Raid DPS wise:
CoF major, CnS/Nullr3/WV or Formless Void if you need the resistance

errant oriole
#

cof?

ionic fern
#

Crucible of Flame

errant oriole
#

oh ok

#

and wv ?

ionic fern
#

Worldvein

errant oriole
#

oh really?

nova gale
#

Do I actually need CNS for m+

errant oriole
#

been using lucid rank 3 as a minor with dynamo and perfection as major

nova gale
#

Like, visions, lucid dreams, nullification and aegis would suffice

#

I should just find another game I think

ionic fern
#

You can use VoP minor as well in raids ofc instead of WV.

sweet summit
#

@ionic fern wv is fixed?

errant oriole
#

wasnt sure is the extra vers would help or not

ionic fern
#

@nova gale you don't "need" it but it's a solid choice. Others include Lucid/Aegis/Sphere.

nova gale
#

Sphere is even more aids to get afaik?

#

If you dont enjoy pvp

ionic fern
#

@sweet summit there's still some schenanigans surrounding it.

sweet summit
#

But its good enough?

errant oriole
#

hmm

manic scaffold
#

when did they make heroic throw instant

gaunt dawn
#

when has it not been instant 👀

#

imagine sitting there, ramping up a throw like thor

#

2s cast time

undone sun
#

even 1s would be 👀

#

also looking at patch changes; there's no mention of a cast time

normal sigil
#

someone is remembering shattering, not heroic throw i guess

gaunt dawn
#

Shattering Throw had a cast time, yea

sage nimbus
#

some idea for prot essences in S4 ? i mean for the 4th

brittle owl
#

one of the new ones for the corr resistance

#

probably the void one

#

if you don't have enough corruption items to warrant that, just use whatever really

nova gale
#

How are teh mechagon rings for Prot?

dark lark
#

Amazing if you get the haste proc one

#

Some people argued that even the base 415 haste proc ring was still better than 450s

nova gale
#

So might be an idea to drop JC

#

And get BS instead or smth

polar kite
#

Does the void essence stack its effect? I mean at the beginning of a raid encounter when everyone uses their essences does it just rockets through the sky?

nova gale
#

Also, mechagon rings. Which conditional procc ring is best? Like, 3 abilities on one target?

dark lark
#

Logic loop of recursion and overclocking bit band

#

Use 3 different abilities on same target, get a haste buff

nova gale
#

Ye so that will technically be a 100% uptime

#

so unless you can get 2 rings that will net you more than 160 haste it will be worth

dark lark
#

At ilvl 465 it'll be more than 160 haste

#

So yeah even more so

nova gale
#

true dat

sweet summit
#

There is a 15 second cooldown on the rings, but its still very close to 100% uptime

nova gale
#

so once it drops off

#

you do 3 skills on one enemy and you will gain it again

sweet summit
#

Yeh

nova gale
#

oh and its mega weighted towards haste too

#

neat. I'll drop JC then and get BS.

sweet summit
#

One is heavy haste, the other is heavy crit

nova gale
#

Great stats for m+ ooeeeh!

Hey folks,

my Edict of the Faithless never dropped during Mythic Progression / Reclears. Because of that i'm still sitting on a 435 forged HC Version. Now to my question: Since i know this trinket is really really good and the new tier doesnt offer good trinkets compared to this tier... im curious how long people will stick to it? i mean. Even if the new tier trinkets are mediocre will their ilvl be enough to outlvl a mthic edict? or am i doomed to hell like other specs that still use BoD Trinkets cause they will be BiS untill forever?

And if so: How am i supposed to find mythic farmraids to keep on grinding Queens Court Mythic when the new raid is out? guess im just unlucky but i was wondering wether my tankmates here have some opinions about the weight of my bad luck.

ionic fern
#

I don't even have a edict. 👀
Don't worry too much about farming old tiers because these trinkets are not "mandatory" to have. You will be just fine doing the content without them.
There are also Mythic+ trinkets that are solid all-arounders like Rezan's that you can get at a decent ilvl if it drops.

uncut juniper
#

i should add to this that i enjoy raiding as much as i love pushing keys and that i got almost every other trinket on (nearly) mythic ilvl to work around. so i know its not the end of the world. but what are we looking for in the new raid in terms of trinkets for m+ / raiding?

tame garden
#

Wrathion trinket looks decent

ionic fern
#

The new tank trinkets from raid in general are "meh" and not worth looking at.
There are some decent STR trinkets like the Humming Black Dragonscale which provides a low haste proc on a high PPM.

#

I'll be still sticking with my Coral/Inkpod for most of progression most likely for example. 🤷

tame garden
#

Ye u dont generally need defensive trinkets for raid

uncut juniper
#

yea sure

#

but i would love to have some for high m+ keys

#

@ionic fern so we're heading back to our good old friends in the m+ loottable i assume?

Most likely jeap.

Jeaaah, that looks scuffed

errant oriole
#

hey so im gonna try to make the 445 alchemy trinket today.... any opinions?

ionic fern
#

There's also Torment in a Jar that looks promising AoE DPS wise.

#

And Hi.. btw.. sorry posted that without a comment. Was following the channel for a while now, great to be here and reading all your Warrior comments.

ionic fern
#

@errant oriole if you got no other trinkets for now it's a solid replacement.

tame garden
#

Poor warriors cant even loot their bis int trinket

errant oriole

well im wearing 425 alchemy one and the shield bubble one out of KR as a 435

ionic fern

Yes, it is.

errant oriole

oh crap 😦

You have what you have. 🤷

#

Don't worry about it too much tho. You can still use it - there are just better options out there from m+ trinkets.

errant oriole
#

oh god its a drop?

waxen cradle
#

honestly man the item level scale to 445 with anything over a +6 starts today and next week the item level cap increases to 470 for a 12-14 and 475 for +15 completed so if anything use this week to hunt some decent M+ trinkets from +6's and go from there

errant oriole
#

is there a list of trinks i can go by?

waxen cradle
#

Is all I would really worry about myself, and there are a few dps trinkets that are optional from raid but for M+ we will most likely go back to our old reliable trinkets from M+ as already stated above

#

There are not no, only purchasable trinkets they are will be the ones that are crafted so I would hunt M+ trinkets from +6s and above and see what you can get to fall from raid if you go in today.

#

Honestly nothing you can craft would reliably be comparative to the item level you could get from even Normal Nyalotha until heroic crafting is unlocked through quests really I think

ionic fern
#

From m+: the 2 first are preferable, the 2 last are "decent".
Rezan's Gleaming Eye
Gore-Crusted Butcher's Block

Jes' Howler
Animated Blood

But exactly as Mwahi just posted those are solid M+ trinkets, and have been a constant this expac

oof, i like how even in the wowhead article it said utility and ease of play

didn't even say survivability

and ppl extrapolate from that

oblique garnet

#

isn't there a lot of magic damage coming up in the new raid?

#

Just hit spell reflect on cd

#

25% magic damage dr

tame garden

Isnt there a lot of magic damage in every raid

exotic spoke
#

You’re not wrong. But I bring more dps. In my head

oblique garnet

Also not tru pepsihands

dpsdpsdpdspdspdspds

sullen valve
#

😡

oblique garnet
#

But yeah there is significant amount of magic damage on the raid

sullen valve
#

Tanks are for tank not damage

exotic spoke

Yeah im just saying in my head I’m always top tier (except Uldir - but let’s forget that place)

solemn kelp

we healz two, don't forget RC omgz

no heal just mitigate damage

@ionic fern does a really good job of it

Anyway, good luck on the EV / IS roulette wheel and any raids y’all may have today

#

O.O so Raids are open at Normal difficulty this week?

tame garden
#

Normal and heroic

#

Next week mythic and first wing of lfr

still flame
#

nice! 445 for normal, that's cool. 460 for heroic is sweet but i havent played them on PTR or anything so id probably start on normal first

#

ilvl 433 should be ok for Normal, right?

tame garden
#

Ye

#

Might be a bit low for heroic

#

So normal first not a bad idea

still flame
#

yeah im not gonna jump into heroic until i have an understanding of how to tackle the bosses

tame garden
#

Tank notes is a great resource if you've never seen it

going to it now 🙂

1030 pst is current estimate

do you guys know what affix went live on NA perchance?:p

left hatch
#

its not live yet

#

if it follows the cycle its... bolstering skittish fort

#

but tbd servers arn't up for another hour estimated

crystal dirge
#

ohhh, didnt really calculate the difference, sorry, if you'd be kind enough to put it here if it's up

left hatch
#

yah i can @ you

warm plinth
#

Yeah, and I don't feel like there's a good reason to reset it again tbh. They had to last time for the purpose of not having unbeatable overlaps in emissaries/affixes somewhat, but obelisks don't move and you kill the miniboss by itself anyway so it doesn't really impact the rest of the dungeon.

left hatch
#

^ it SHOULDNT alter the pattern but, you know, blizz lul

warm plinth
#

Won't be surprised if they do (and I wouldn't mind seeing sang/quake not be a thing anymore), but they don't have to

crystal dirge
#

quake nerf makes it a bit less problematic tho :p

tame garden
#

I'm fine with sang quake if it's not also void

warm plinth
#

It still makes TD a shitshow regardless of void/nerf

left hatch
#

quake nerf is only a nerf 90% of hte time

warm plinth
#

And TD is already bad enough on its own

It's a bad idea and they shoulda learned that by now

exotic spoke
#

What’s the range of IS?

#

Asking, because of talking about TD. Will we have to worry about IS pulling through walls too?

analog zinc
#

isnt IS just a dmg proc

#

so shouldn't it only hit mobs you're attacking

#

im 415 prot war can i solo thrall? my first vision or go with team?

analog zinc
#

yes fore

tho i'd just do fury

better for solo content imo

faster

paper lake
#

dont have veps for it

vague coyote
#

mobs are scaled to group size

exotic spoke
#

I mean things attack through walls in TD so I could see IS hitting them.

#

And yeah. The mobs in horrific visions scale with group size. I just went and did them with my M+ group

analog zinc
#

would you run worldvein minor in raid

paper lake
#

td is annoying xD

analog zinc
#

a bunch of people are apparently gonna be running it

exotic spoke

I wouldn’t. I may run it as a major though. People are talking about how busted it is.

Guardian chat was blowing up about it a bit ago

cant imagine its better than cruc for dmg

Hello fella warriors

analog zinc
#

GL doing a 19 this weejk

exotic spoke
#

@frail blade I’d recommend going full defensive. So Vision major and then pick 3 of lucid, sphere, CnS, and aegis. If you need corruption resistance grab one of the new ones

#

And for a 19, it’s just a weekly no leavers key. That’s it. If you have access to one you do it. I’ll be in a 17 this week. We probably won’t time it, but we’ll finish it

No

10 weeks for 1 piece at +15 last I checked, unless the TR numbers changed

That's disgusting

2 weeks for a rando at +18

weary thorn

thats engaging gameplay

mortal brook

we got a long tier anywho

weary thorn

7 months for 3 pieces tho? That takes some fucking dedication

left hatch
#

that's excluding gains from scrapping though

exotic spoke
#

Tusks, I’ll random one of each slot then save. For specific

It’s like 45% chance of failure if you’re looking for a specific piece

#

By the time you could have just purchased it

tame garden
#

Ye I'm doing same riki

#

But only 2 gambles

#

Then saving rest of tier

left hatch

thats my plan as well

daring marlin
#

god asserite is amazing

who needs tier gear

exotic spoke

Random then save for chest / shoulders / head in that order

esp since All of raid has BoM pieces, you can get by with raid gear for awhile

my "introduction" to mmo's was a friend raiding some dragon in EQ

Said "no mmos for me" at that point

uldum is the weekly

craggy harness

yeah ^-

left hatch
#

last week both mini assaults had loot for me

warm plinth
#

I didn't get loot from the 2nd minor last week; it seems to be guaranteed coalescing visions, mementos, and then I got war resources on 1 toon and gold on another, but neither got an item.

novel agate
#

How many mementos do we get from the major and minor? Close to the elite exterminator buff was hoping to get it before going into a vision

warm plinth
#

I never really paid attention to the major, but the minor is random. I think I got like 58 on one toon and 67 on the other

exotic spoke
#

Not many from those. But you can farm inside the daily visions, from killing bounties (world pvp)

#

@novel agate

#

How close are you

novel agate

Ah I was about 400 away knew it was a long shot. Should have just gone for another lost zone last week.

If it’s the same Ilvl then no, it’s not worth using

rugged berry

is sigil of warding good trinket for warprot ?

red dock

Is a second DC or callous reprisal better in M+?

chilly brook
#

Callous reprisal in most use cases

red dock
#

I wasn't clear, both would be second picks

chilly brook

The DR from CR stacks with multiple traits

Hence why for general use I would recommend a second CR over a second DC

Are you looking at them from a defensive stance or offensive?

Or blend?

full crane

More for defensive.

I think the stone is probably better based on the Ilvl difference then.

Simming is only for offensive purposes

I would have world 1st normal kills

if I had corruption

I'm getting world 2nd on most bosses

because world first has infinite stars

so aids

it does 9k their damage

exotic spoke
#

I wish I had good corruption :(. Oh wait - I can farm it now 🙂

lilac thorn
#

corruption will carry any dps far more, then TF ever did. it's fun if you get nice corruption items, but absolute cancer if you have bad luck and can't compete. rng at it's best.

sharp night
#

you aren't gonna have bad enough luck where you never get a good corruption though, you can just farm lower ilvl items until you get a corruption or trade for it when people are capped on their corruption

lilac thorn
#

sure you are right, but that shows how 'broken' it is, that you trade lower ilvl gear, because it is far better (in terms of dps that is) because of corruption. for me that is something that I never liked

grim skiff
#

How strong is the corruption Twilight devestation? got a 445 ilvl belt in chest but my 430 belt has the corruption TD on it

warm plinth
#

It's pretty good

#

Like top 2 in AoE, top 3 or 4 in ST I think?

grim skiff
#

i only do M+ ... seems like its prob better than the ilvl the 445 belt has socket too 😢

so if i don't have a single bastion

fresh 120 war, would yall gear prot or fury first or does it matter

exotic spoke
#

Prots easy - just equip the highest Ilvl (for the most part).

So, get the highest Ilvl and then decide from there and you can be more specific in the gear you want for fury - IMO I

Im trying to debate if vision food is worth it

what vision food?

the new foods give visio specific buffs

warm plinth
#

I mean, movement speed is always good. One of them gives you 100 sanity (which isn't much now but when we have a lot more SR, it'll be big especially in mask runs with half sanity). One of them is basically rabbit charms for visions, and one is like 20% movement speed

Not while trialing lmao

uhhhh

valuable enough that dropping ilvl for damage will probably be worth it

depending on corruption effect that is

if you're talking Wrathion wep that is not worth 15 ilvls

#

even ignoring socket and what secondaries

sick sentinel
#

is it not that good

left hatch
#

end of the day he can sim himself but ST it only adds like 1k dps

#

which im pretty sure 15 ilvls of a weapon adds more

cunning kraken
#

that obsidian skin corruption is bad right?

left hatch
#

and for w/e reason Searing Flames also doesn't sim for much higher in aoe than it does ST

cunning kraken
#

i should clear the corruption off of it

left hatch
#

i think (think) its better than void ritual

#

so if you got nothing else why not keep it?

cunning kraken
#

well i just cant use it cus of the high corruption

#

like i dont know how reliable the sims on bloodmallet are but it looks awful

#

wanted to make sure i dont fuck up

left hatch
#

sims are only for dps

#

so if you're looking for defensive value you don't use it

downside being is corruptions main value is gonna be offensive lul

Oh, odd way to phrase it but you might be right 😅

frosty holly
#

Both are the same eitherway

rigid ember
#

Is there any secondary stat percentages i should be trying to hit for m+

left hatch
#

nope

#

Ilvl>all

#

if its same ilvl haste>crit>verse>mast for M+

glass finch
#

Any corruption that stands out as good on m+? Do we want the leech?

ionic fern
#

Twilight Devastation.
Echoing Void
Racing Pulse.

#

And No, we do not want leech.

distant crystal
#

i just got a socket +9% mastery piece

#

D:

chilly brook
sweet summit
#

Looks bad idk i think you should scrap it

chilly brook
#

Tbh I'm actually triggered I got it because I can't even use it

#

Corruption is too high

sweet summit
#

Go farm some visions

sick sentinel
#

rank 7 would solve that

#

27 resistance

chilly brook
#

At 27 resistance you'd still be proc'ing the ghost thing

sick sentinel
#

you're proccing the thing that does the shadow damage

#

which really doesn't do much

chilly brook
#

The one that chases you?

sick sentinel
#

that's 50+ right?

chilly brook
#

40iirc

sick sentinel
#

ahh 40

chilly brook
#

Yep no its 40

#

So it'd be super counterproductive especially in raid

#

If I was dps it'd be ok

warm plinth
#

Nah man as long as it only procs every 25 sec you're gold 😂

chilly brook
#

Look some of the stuff in nyalotha already trucks lmao

#

Especially that trash

warm plinth
#

I was referring to someone yesterday who said that you can pop SR on the add and it insta-despawns it when it hits you

chilly brook
#

Who thought it was a good idea to put 10 casters in a trash pack and have each cast do 100k

#

Literally bonkers

warm plinth
#

Definitely gonna have to make sure you have shock bots on everyone for Junkyard

#

3rd most damaging ability lol

sweet summit
#

Zap scales with keystone level ive heard, thats true?

chilly brook
#

I would assume that would be the case

#

But either way you'd want it

mortal brook
warm plinth
#

Yeah, that was in a +5

chilly brook
#

It was a significant portion of damage in the pre m+ version of mechagon

warm plinth
#

btw +5 also drops 445 so don't fret about 6s too much

#

Not that it's a huge difference, but thought I'd mention it

mortal brook
#

most are gonna have 6s tho, since they prob ran 10s

warm plinth
#

Yeah I was just putting the info out there

mortal brook
#

5s rarer unless you premade and tank it on purpose

chilly brook
#

@mortal brook I'm assuming that's just a single target fight?

ionic fern
#

That doesn't look too bad tbh..how long is that fight?

mortal brook
#

yeah, with full uptime on facing the boss. on aoe its right about the same

#

almost 4m

chilly brook
#

A 3% boost isn't bad but compared to what you can get for the corruption

mortal brook
#

for sure

#

if i get an ev tho ill prob cleanse

#

or hold on till higher resist

chilly brook
#

Just unfortunate

#

Especially when looking at other weapons from this tier

mortal brook
#

ilvl > all is rarely bad

chilly brook
#

I'm just talking in terms of effects comparatively

mortal brook
#

oh yeah for sure

#

stars just got ANOTHER 25% and its still rockin really nice dps percorruption

chilly brook
#

Like the bdk weapon

mortal brook
#

rip that weapon lol

chilly brook
#

Still probably better than our 1h by a long shot lol

mortal brook
#

also holy heck m+ corruption rate is low. took 16 5s/6s before we saw a corruption

#

(it was an avoidance back piece)

warm plinth
#

We did like

mortal brook
warm plinth
#

5

#

And got one, but it wasn't good lol

chilly brook
#

It probably follows the same rules as TF did

mortal brook
#

so can confirm, back pieces can corrupt lol

warm plinth
#

Hunter got an 8% leech one

mortal brook
#

I think so. 1/3 of 1/3 of 1/3 same as a +15 TF

chilly brook
#

Aka every key above a 10 nets increased chance

mortal brook
#

8% leech prob worth wearing mail right?

chilly brook
#

Yes

mortal brook
#

😄

undone sun
#

hmmm

chilly brook
#

110%

#

Actually

#

10000000%

mortal brook
#

oh, and sanity gain from k'bab doesnt double tick on 20s now. just 1 at 10s

#

still nice tho. couple hundo gain per run

warm plinth
#

I'm just excited about the gnasher food on my DH

chilly brook
#

I definitely think corruption needs to be a one and done thing after this patch
