I will never understand accidentally doing other than I intended to do in a vision

still pagoda
#

my monk is kinda stuck for now

copper lion
#

does BOP clear stacks

warm plinth
#

Like idk how people start visions without masks or without all the masks

still pagoda
#

gladly, this now is only tomorrow

copper lion
#

of necrotic

still pagoda
#

does BOP clear stacks
@copper lion yes

warm plinth
#

Yes

still pagoda
#

it does

sweet summit
#

it also removes aggro 👀

still pagoda
#

^

warm plinth
#

Just need to cancel it fast or you will have your DPS getting beat on

still pagoda
#

So kill DH's with it @sweet summit

sweet summit

/cancelaura?

sweet summit

yep

copper lion
#

for macro

yep

/cancelaura Blessing of Protection

#

heck

warm plinth
#

You can just put it on all your abilities tbh

distant crystal
#

i just bound that into shield slam

warm plinth
#

No reason you'd ever keep BoP on you

still pagoda
#

i just bound that into shield slam

Actual madman

#

though this is a good thing to do

sweet summit
#

i have it bound to avatar yep

still pagoda
distant crystal
#

also p sure on zul

inland bolt
#

if youre just spamming low keys for echos and you have a bop on a week like this using strength + fang is pretty juicy

distant crystal
#

in KR

inland bolt
#

so you wouldnt cancel it immediately

warm plinth
#

That is an insanely niche situation though tbf

inland bolt
#

yeah i usually use strength for lower keys just to push packs, depends if you run it

distant crystal
#

i mean

#

if you're ok with your dps getting melee'd

inland bolt
#

oh thats not how it works

distant crystal
#

then you're ok with you not blocking/parrying

warm plinth
#

That's why he said with strength

sweet summit
#

warden taunts through BoP

mortal brook
#

warden taunt

warm plinth
#

Yeah, warden would keep them on you for 6 sec

distant crystal
#

ohhhh

sweet summit
#

like warden>BoP u still have aggro

mortal brook
#

but like, do you need the bop? shockwave and fang np in most situations

inland bolt
#

you don't get necro while you get a free channel with fang

#

yeah thats why I said this week

#

that or mdi keys 😂

distant crystal
#

just shockwave 4head

warm plinth
#

Yeah it's not something that's required. I think his point was just to clarify a situation where it might not be a good idea to have BoP macroed to all your abilities :p

still pagoda
#

just leap away 4head

#

just run sphere 4head

#

oh

#

i actually know what i'm gonna do rn

#

SOME KEYS ON WARRIOR

though i started hating ally M+ LFG

#

for how small amount of groups is

#

are you on NA?

trail dome
inland bolt
#

either way, i think horde is better for NA or EU

#

yeah just go ilvls, you lose too much dmg dropping wep ilvls

@still pagoda buy all the cheap boes on ruski servers

for a killing

(gonna cleanse this shit)

#

@still pagoda buy all the cheap boes on ruski servers
@trail dome

They're not cheap here

trail dome
#

every time i look at wowpay2win ruski servers are always super cheap

sweet summit
#

yeh, you get armor/stam/str+more stats. id take ilvl there

still pagoda
#

Russian servers are not a goldmine

#

every time i look at wowpay2win ruski servers are always super cheap

Not the auction house though

#

but i may be mistaken on this

#

i'm poor anyway

#

only 30k gold on my warrior...

i just equipped my caster offhand on lock yesterday

inland bolt
#

boe's are pretty dead now

#

no point when you can just wait and get your corruption every 4 weeks

#

base items increased in price though

trail dome

#

475 ilvl is really expensive for me atl

#

especially shields

#

as it's the only reliable 475 shield

still pagoda
#

especially on ally

distant crystal
#

i imagine the big corruptions will still fetch a good price

#

saving 15000 echoes on td3 is worth

still pagoda
#

#

already doing

#

i'm at 10,7k

regal saddle
#

You’ll still find buyers if you just throw them up on the ah, was trying to sell my 460 severe 2 , got. 200k offer then the next day someone mailed me and offered me 750k

trail dome
#

there's only 1 shield at 475 on TN atm

#

and it's 875k

distant crystal
#

shield is special

still pagoda
#

:

trail dome
#

yeah

distant crystal

cause 475 shield is hard to come by

still pagoda
#

i had EV3 on this 475 shield

Sounds like a smart guy tbh

GUYS

TIME TO TARGET IF TRUE

and it just switches 2 weeks back to back. So not worth the look

high nacelle

which rings do you guys use?

It's a WIP. The two rotations listed are the ones we've already seen.

I really hope the cycle doesn't change though; that's gonna be real stupid

still pagoda

unleash the stupidity

sweet summit

FUCK kragg hurts

warm plinth

Just ignore the pain 4head

still pagoda
#

It's a WIP. The two rotations listed are the ones we've already seen.
@warm plinth

Well, at least we know when those 2 rotations will return

warm plinth
#

Yeah

sick sentinel
#

I don’t use ignore pain because I’m emo

still pagoda
#

Basically when i will be able to gear up arms

thin nova
#

hey guys can any1 give me some insight on tanking rixxa in motherlode with a prot warrior ?

main vault
#

Spam IP, Demo Shout, and SW

#

And Pray your healer dispells

thin nova
#

😦

main vault
#

Oh and SR

thin nova
#

was running a 17 got destroyed

warm plinth
#

You can spell reflect every other Chemical Burn (make sure you're one of the two closest people to her when it's coming. But like Nexii said, it's basically rotating cooldowns, getting dispelled when needed, and the healer just spamming the bejesus out of you

sweet summit
#

FUCKING EUDORA ONESHOTS ON A 23?!?

sick sentinel
#

Lucid also helps for rotations of externals

sweet summit
#

cba with tyrannical man

sick sentinel
#

You're suppose to use defensives

#

and you can intervene every other powershot

#

and hope it goes on you always

#

also another thing

#

Take safeguard

#

they'll take 30% less damage for I think 6 seconds

#

makes eudora almost a joke

warm plinth
#

Yeah, ranged/healer can line of sight powder shot on the pillar under the house as well

sweet summit
#

ye was just my healer failed LoS like 3 times

#

and didnt barkskin

wooden egret
#

@warm plinth how do u spell reflect all the checmical burn? Cause i can't get SR up for every cast

sweet summit
#

every 2nd cast

warm plinth
#

You can do every 2nd cast

#

Healer dispels you for the ones you can't reflect

wooden egret
#

ohh thought u ment that u could reflect all casts, if you found some magic way i had to know 😄

distant crystal
#

make the melee eat it between SR's

#

:D

#

or if they're dec they can vanish/meld/meta dodge etc

#

i think fd works?

warm plinth
#

Turtle works as well

sick sentinel
#

You can also play double IT

#

and have a chance at getting 2 spell reflects off

still pagoda
#

started easily getting into +17 pug groups after getting 2k

#

that one moment when 50 rio difference mattered

trail dome
#

@sick sentinel i swear safeguard is actually kinda OP

#

there aren't as many oneshotty mechanics in BFA but it's really good vs the ones there are

#

i'm not main tank but my tank friend who usually tanks my keys plays it on KR too

sweet summit
#

im always running safeguard. its OP af

trail dome
#

also on uh

#

junkyard

#

anything with big single target damage

sweet summit
#

yeah

trail dome
#

that said 50% radius on TC is fucking enormous

#

literally >2* the area

sweet summit
#

yeah, i do miss having it

trail dome
#

i'm not gonna play safeguard for a long ass time

#

til i start going >20 on this char i think

#

and even then only on tyra weeks most likely.

sick sentinel
#

playing the increase range TC is inting

#

xd

trail dome
#

ur inting

still pagoda
#

til i start going >20 on this char i think
@trail dome

Same

#

i just run BS in this row 24/7

trail dome
#

i've been enjoying 12yd clap this week

#

can kite mobs v easily while clapping

still pagoda
#

last time i played 12yd clap was back in 7.3.5

sick sentinel
#

Kiting?

#

This week?

#

You just go into a 20 and one shot mobs

#

xd

trail dome
#

🤔

#

Yeah that sounds a lot like the experience I have pugging 15s.

zenith monolith
#

Timed ML20 for the first time today. Omg that 3rd boss hurts.

still pagoda
#

i'm yet to do 18

sick sentinel
#

Kudos for entering a ML on tyr

#

I’ll pass

still pagoda
#

amount of pug groups in lfg on ally is decreasing more and more

zenith monolith
#

Yeah man. Just had the key. Got a decent group and we did it.

sick sentinel
#

Huh

#

ML on tyran is statistically easier

#

for most keys

zenith monolith
#

Yeah was easiest this week according to stats

sick sentinel
#

Keep in mind I do not play the game hardly at all on tyr

trail dome
#

Yeah, just spooky keeping warriors up on 3 & 4 boss.

zenith monolith
#

We moved onto Temple 21 and got raped by first boss. 🙂

sick sentinel
#

third and 4th boss not har

#

d

#

I’ve never had a problem

#

But I prefer it on fort tbh

trail dome
#

Ok kyothi we get it you're really good at wow.

sick sentinel
#

Lmao

zenith monolith
#

Lol

sick sentinel
#

How come no one ever says I’m good at wow

sweet summit
#

wow hawgz, you're a god gamer

Hi guys, im looking at progging nzoth starting this week, i have a geared brewmaster and prot war.
Im picking which to prog on, the main criteria being which will make it easier for my guild

sweet summit
#

do you already have a BrM in the team?

civic holly
#

Is brm still better at max gear?

mortal brook
#

Ox statue is op af

sweet summit
#

yeah ox is OP

civic holly
#

No, other tank is prot pally

sweet summit
#

yeah, brm then

civic holly
#

Ok thanks

mortal brook
#

Ox statue will knock off 50 pulls ez

#

Do 2nd psychus

still pagoda
civic holly
#

The small adds on the first phases?

still pagoda
#

+18 TD awaits

sweet summit
#

yeah, they psycho adds things

civic holly
#

Gl karton

#

Ok cheers

#

Guess i should go to monk fiscord for info on how to use it on the fight then!

still pagoda
#

yea

#

they have a lot of good people there

civic holly
#

Thanks again

still pagoda
#

asking questions on it myself

sweet summit
#

not as good as skyhold tho yep

still pagoda
sweet summit
still pagoda
#

literally a dilemma of any noob tank

sweet summit
#

actually true peepostudy

sick sentinel
#

Ah I leave for 5 seconds and you guys scare the men away from prot on nzoth

sweet summit
#

its your fault, dont ever leave us again 😢

sick sentinel
#

Imagine not bootyclapping your way to top 5 on nzoth meters by padding adds

sweet summit
#

imagine playing tank in raids pepsihands

sick sentinel
#

I wallow in self hatred

civic holly
#

im still here hawgz

sweet summit
#

i dont know what wallow means

civic holly
#

i assume versatile stack is much better for prog

sweet summit
#

but it sounds cool

#

nah, TD mate. TD.

sick sentinel
#

Hell no

#

At no point in the raid should you ever take enough damage that you need anything other than TD

civic holly
#

oh interesting

sick sentinel
#

We are dps machines that take damage

#

Nothing more in my eyes

civic holly
#

even when first learning the fights?

sick sentinel
#

I MIGHT not run TFB if you aren’t comfortable cause it can wipe you if you aren’t... but that is about the only sacrifice I would make

#

Our kit is more than equipped to handle anything in this raid

civic holly
#

TFB?

sick sentinel
#

Thing from beyond. But BRM will be the easier play if that is what you are looking for

#

Cause as the gents before me have stated

#

Ox op

whole flame
#

ah can you explain why the ox is so good pls hawgz?

#

noob tank here myself

sick sentinel
#

I’m running around like a maniac picking up adds while my brew counterpart is afk in the boss

#

With his ox tanking adds

#

Aoe taunt for harvesters is nice as well

whole flame
#

i feel like the ox misses a lot of adds? is it just being positioned incorrectly?

sick sentinel
#

Not required

#

But nice

#

Yeah it’s all positioning tbh

#

You’ll get the hang as you do the fight

whole flame
#

so for warrior, take td's over versatile too?

sick sentinel
#

Yes

whole flame
#

versatile just for m+?

#

for really big keys

sick sentinel
#

There are very few points in that fight where tank damage is even moderately high

whole flame
#

hmm ok

#

im getting trucked i feel like

#

maybe im doing some stuff wrong

#

i feel like my counterpart is getting trucked too

sick sentinel
#

Honestly for even 20+ keys i still take TD4 and I run one versatile3 with it

#

But it’s not required

#

What is trucking you on that fight

whole flame
#

were not really seeing the 2nd psychus phase yet

#

so bashers are hitting me

sick sentinel
#

Fight is front loaded

#

So don’t feel bad

whole flame
#

and hes getting smashed by psychus

sick sentinel
#

But void lash you should be using your cds/calling for externals if you need

#

But they should never void lash at the same time

#

One should always be dead

#

Makes your healers lives easier

whole flame
#

im using LPS first, dampen harm 2nd, LPS+fortbrew 3rd and calling for sac for the fourth

#

should we have our ranged tunnel one down and then the other?

sick sentinel
#

We burn one usually

#

That was only one void lash

#

But there are a lot of factors at play here because if psychus doesn’t die fast enough you’ll get another basher

whole flame
#

yeah thats probably our main issue atm

#

regularly getting that last basher spawn

#

psychus a bit slow

sick sentinel
#

Yeah and that can be bad if it is during the burn

#

You can SR one of the lashes as well so you don’t take one tick

#

But you’re playing brm lmao so nvm

whole flame
#

yeah

#

id prefer play my war

#

but guild geared up the monk and apparently its better so its the right thing to do

sick sentinel
#

Like all content, it is less forgiving to play prot

whole flame
#

war can get a kill later when we kill it easier

#

i feel like the war is just as good if you dont make mistakes

#

'if'

sick sentinel
#

Yeah it’s a big if

#

Monk is huge

cosmic coral
#

I just wanna ask if the prot guides are still up to date?

sick sentinel
#

Yes they are

#

Monk is snooze

cosmic coral
#

ty, and they are in the guides resources faq right, because i dont see any in pins?

sick sentinel
#

Prot is a headache

#

Then again raid tanking is snooze in general

whole flame
#

but but but, i have lots of td on my war and none on my monk!

sick sentinel
#

Prot can be annoying you ain’t lyin

#

You don't really want TD on monk

#

It's all Vers %

#

^

#

Unless you are parse whoring

whole flame
#

oh?

#

swear i just read differently a moment ago

sick sentinel
#

Smaller health pool

#

On monk

#

You're reading the wrong type of guides

#

Huge gains from vers

#

If you have a lot of echoes on your monk @whole flame

#

by every single bit of rank 3 Vers %

#

you can get it

whole flame
#

i dont

#

im farming them nbow

sick sentinel
#

I'd farm it

#

and you need one surging rank 3

#

the rest are %s

#

Or play prot yep peepoHappy

whole flame
#

mmmm i want vers % for arena too for my war

kind spindle
#

Hope this isnt the wrong place to ask (just joined) but should I stick with my Servant Splitter if I got a Resonating Crystal Scimitar? Both 465. Do the stats outweigh the proc?

last mason
#

Yes in most situations

kind spindle
#

Ok cool thanks!

tropic fox
#

is it wise to drop one BoM for one deafening crash, just to have one?

sick sentinel
#

Yes

#

DC is a must have

tropic fox
#

okay

still pagoda
#

Fucking TD...

#

fuck this shit

sick sentinel
#

Lmao rip

#

td is so fun

still pagoda
#

fuck wall pulls, fuck bugged walls, fuck Corgi

sick sentinel
#

Fun if code doesn’t get you sure

still pagoda
#

fuck 3rd boss too

sick sentinel
#

3rd boss is the how competent is my group check

dire blade
#

TD is and always will be my lowest key!

sick sentinel
#

It is one of the easiest keys tbh

#

Just awful code

tropic fox
#

TD, funny enough, is one of my highest keys i ever got 😄

still pagoda
#

bricked, but at least done

#

Fuck TD

sick sentinel
#

Just don't TD stuff :4head:

tropic fox
#

my nemesis is kings rest 😉

still pagoda
#

fun fact, but i tolerate KR more than TD

tropic fox
#

its either the third boss, which bricks my keys there or the first group after the second boss

warm plinth
#

King's Rest sucks in general tbf

still pagoda
#

but it sucks less than TD

#

tbh

#

at least no wall pull bullshit and bugs

#

and will be able to safely push next week right from +17

#

half are bricked 17's

#

though, this +18 showed that i'm really comfortable with this this range of keys by now

sick sentinel
#

Just hold W

cosmic coral
#

HoD or Iron Fortress? icyveins says they are about equal , what do u guys pref?

sick sentinel
#

HoD

#

Way better

cosmic coral
#

ty

dusty warren
#

guys, TD5 = 38 corruption or risk with TD5 + IT1 = 50 corruption?

still pagoda
#

this is not really a risk

#

you can SR, stun and fear TFB

cosmic coral
#

Overwhelming power or unstable flames? or does it not matter since they are ranked equally on icyveins?

still pagoda
#

OP

dusty warren
#

yeah, I`ll sim with both scenario but I think try with 50 corruption

cosmic coral
#

for m+

still pagoda
#

more haste = more everything

cosmic coral

forgot toadd

still pagoda

OP and UF are universal

#

no need to judge them as "for raids or for M+"

though OP is better

#

never too much haste

guys should i just stack versa corruption for Prot?

#

for mythic +

grand drum
#

go twilight dev

shy rapids
#

alrdy have a lot of crit / haste from gear

still pagoda
#

also. I will actually follow Naowh's advice from yesterday and try running keys with Lucid for big pull setups next week

#

go twilight dev

#

always

#

there is no such thing as "too much" haste and crit

cosmic coral
#

So for m+ i just keep stacking TD and then IT/Expedient for filler?

still pagoda
#

you continue doing this for everything

#

raids too

cosmic coral
#

ah okay

dusty warren
#

is there a cap for haste or a min to play confortable?

still pagoda
#

there is no cap

#

the more haste, the better

trail dome
#

i'm gonna keep playing vop until i can get everything else right

still pagoda
#

i'm already totally comfortable with +17-18 keys

#

and gonna push higher next week

#

really wanna do +20's

#

and try out Lucid for the sake of fun and big pulls

cosmic coral
#

theres like 8 trinkets I see in icyveins that are decent, what would u guys say is best for m+? I want to run urchin (430ilvl tho so im not sure its that good) and heroic raden

sick sentinel
#

Vita and scale/block/rezan

still pagoda
#

The only that matter are vita, rezan and scaleshard

#

and goreblock from WCM

#

LPS is a situational trinket for high keys and mythic prog

sick sentinel
#

Get psychic shell from nzoth if you need a defensive option though in most situations stat sticks will serve you better

Quick question: Do we always prioritize ilvl for shields? Do I give up my haste/vers with Echoing Void for a +10ilvl vers/crit with no corruption?

still pagoda
#

105 days played on my warrior

#

most of this during Legion

#

ilevel ilevel and ilevel for shields @lucid geyser Block is by far our most important stat.

too many questions

like those

trail dome

speaking of which btw

#

this is wearing max ilvl set

#

huge leech

cosmic coral

would you guys say 460 vita/ 475 scale > 460 vita/ 465 block with a gemsocket?

still pagoda
#

yes

cosmic coral

for m+

huge leech
@trail dome

Zero leech on my gear

#

i have 15% verse tho

cosmic coral
#

so literally just prio haste

still pagoda
trail dome
#

haste & crit

still pagoda
#

ilvl > haste > crit => verse > mastery

cosmic coral
#

how does corruption play into that? ive got 445 expedient pants with crit haste, but ive also got the same pants at 475, do i equip the 475 over it?

#

and find somewhere else to put that corruption?

still pagoda
#

find TD

#

i run TD3 rn, but closer and closer to just dumping and getting TD5

cosmic coral
#

ive got TD4 atm

warm plinth
#

The only corruption you generally drop corruption for is TD, and that's just because of how ridiculously strong it is.

#

er

still pagoda
#

hope that TD3 will be on vendor's list this Wednesday

warm plinth
#

Generally drop ilevel for*

still pagoda
#

TD

cosmic coral
#

ah okay, i see, so i should just equip the 475 , and if i get another TD to get TD5 then i think about dropping ilvl if its worth?

still pagoda
#

ye

#

exactly

cosmic coral
#

ah okay ty again

#

okay so what if its the 475 crit haste item compared to a 470 msatery haste item with a crit corruption on it?

still pagoda
#

no corruption is worth ilvl unless it's TD

#

crit amp is no exception

cosmic coral
#

hmm okay ty

still pagoda
#

all tank specs love ilvl nowadays

trail dome
#

exception is rings

#

and occasionally offpieces

#

like if wrists had vers/mast and i had ones 5 ilvl lower with haste heavy haste/crit

#

And rings obv are all about stats.

#

But if it's a big piece like legs or weapon or whatever just take ilvl.

Honestly in general just take ilvl.

#

Ilvl is great.

cosmic coral
#

last question, 475 vers haste item to a 475 haste mastery item with a crit % corruption? I gain 1.3% crit and 2.52% mastery but lose 1.4% vers, if i equip the haste mastery item with the crit % corruption

trail dome
#

take the corruption unless it has a big impact on your corruption budget

cosmic coral
#

ah okay thought so, and naw i have a lot of corruption still available even after that item

trail dome
#

yeah in general more stats > less stats

#

even if they're slightly worse stats

civic tide
#

any thoughts on 445 urchin vs 460 vita ? for m+

sweet summit
#

vita

#

vita owns

still pagoda
#

Urchin is more of a meme for prot warrior

#

We're not monks after all

civic tide
#

ty 🙂

cosmic coral
#

since i have poopy wep and shield, 430 and 445 respectively, but i have 5 b rolls that i wont use them on anything anytime soon, im gonna run H Nya to get 460 stuff, would it be better to get a shield or wep first

sweet summit
#

sheild is your entire defense

#

i wanna say shield

cosmic coral
#

well i guess i could farm m+ for a shield actually or wep, ima use all my b rolls on wrath and run 14 keys till i get a good shield for higher keys

still pagoda
#

Get lucky with weekly chest

sweet summit
#

id just bonus roll wrathion and ilgy, vex too if you didnt get wrath sword

still pagoda
#

^^

warm plinth
#

Are you going to be doing Mythic raid? Or just heroic?

sweet summit
#

ilgy is the only boss that drops sheild, outside of the BoE trash shield

warm plinth
#

I think I'd personally bonus roll Ra-den because of Vita

cosmic coral
#

already have it

#

i just need a wep and shield

#

yea ur right nvm i wont b rool wrath heroic

warm plinth
#

Ah ok

cosmic coral
#

io can just get one for mythic

sick sentinel
#

leech is good for us?

trail dome
#

Wait, is leech good for prot?

cosmic coral
#

i second that question, cuz i can equip a 460 piece that is exactly the same as a 475, but the 460 has leech

warm plinth
#

Leech is not worth considering unless you're comparing two items of the same ilevel

trail dome
#

Sorry Wisdom, leech is a bit of a meme in here.

#

I'm trolling.

#

Definitely play the 475.

cosmic coral
#

ah okay, just making sure, ty

sick sentinel
#

i just got this yesterday

still pagoda
#

Cleanse

sick sentinel
#

should i cleanse it? yeah?

warm plinth
#

Yes, cleanse it

cosmic coral
#

how many stacks u taunt off of ilgy beam, 2?

still pagoda
#

Leech is not worth any corruption budget

cosmic coral
#

is therea thing i can find for all the fights

still pagoda
#

I taunted at 3 last time

#

But again, overgear

sick sentinel
#

I hear we are discussing leech

main vault
#

The only reason Warrios take Lucid

sick sentinel
#

Mythic ilgynoth you will want to taunt on 2 beams btw

sweet summit
#

taunt on two yep

sick sentinel
#

Are you giving me lip

trail dome
#

So prot's my alt, i main healer.

sick sentinel
#

Gross

trail dome
#

Is it me or does ilgy beam & carapace mandible slam hit considerably harder than literally anything else in hc

sick sentinel
#

But carry on

trail dome
#

i nearly died to mandy slam

sick sentinel
#

Need to make sure you are blocking

#

And need to spell reflect it when you can

#

It is blockable, so if you take it unblocked you will notice

trail dome
#

It might have been weird 30 man tuning too tbf

#

But I got fucking slammed.

sick sentinel
#

If it is almost killing you it’s unblocked

trail dome
#

Maybe. I did also have like.... 5 stacks? Maybe 6?

sick sentinel
#

Then black scar is what’s killing you

#

Which can be reflected

trail dome
#

the debuff is reflectable?

sick sentinel
#

Yes you can deflect the application of black scar

sweet summit
#

thats how im gonna end up solotanking carapace one day

#

with my ineffable ravager

sick sentinel
#

I solo tank in p1 just so other tank can run around wrangling adds so they don’t take muh haste

trail dome
#

Oh shit, that's good to know.

sweet summit
#

oh haste debuff D:

#

i dont wanna solotank carapace anymore

trail dome
#

But I still feel like that thing hits way harder than anything else on hc.

#

I've only done 1 hc alt run on my warrior but that & ilgy beam are the only things that damaged me. 👀

sweet summit
#

if you have a lot of stacks it will hurt yeah

sick sentinel
#

But if the hit itself is what’s killing you

sweet summit
#

you have demo, sr, sw and externals

sick sentinel
#

It’s cause you aren’t blocking it

sweet summit
#

for ilgy beam

sick sentinel
#

For beam just be a chad

#

Even on mythic

#

SR the first was fine for me and LPS the second

#

Absolute cheese

sweet summit
#

chad
LPS
🤔

sick sentinel
#

You giving me lip again

main vault
#

Only bitches need LPS in HC

sick sentinel
#

Heck out of here I said mythic

#

Also can just use LS for first and SR for second and you’ll be fine

#

Not the optimal use of LS but w/e you only tank like 20 seconds on that fight

main vault
#

You said even in

#

Implying hc, and mythic

sick sentinel
#

Ok sorry dad I’ll be better

sweet summit
#

i believe in you, son

sick sentinel
#

🙏

next yacht
#

are workshop bracers worth anything?

sick sentinel
#

No

#

If you have something else at equal or higher ilvl, use them

mortal brook
#

macro em into a spammy button, forget they exist

iron tiger
#

Hiya

#

Any tricks for better snap threat?

#

On an aoe pull

#

Sometimes when people burst 130+ they pull a mob off me

sick sentinel
#

If your dps are pulling threat they likely just need to cool it

#

or you're doing your dps rotation wrong

#

But you in general shouldn’t have threat issues if you are playing properly

#

Should be avatar before pull, demo shout as you go in and TC

#

then revenge

#

and as long as they wait that like 2 seconds

#

they shouldn't rip threat

#

Basically if you get a TC off before they go all should be fine

#

But if for example a dh eyebeams while you’re charging

#

He’s gonna have a bad time

iron tiger
#

They were using the beam sometimes

#

The essence

grave lily
#

eye beam death sweep iris fel barrage death sweep "tank hello i got meleed?"

#

is pretty classic

main vault
#

i got meleed

grave lily
#

Where does lucid fit into the opener, since its undeniably bis now

mortal brook
#

When the mage presses combust

iron tiger
#

I've been using vop cause my gear is bad and I didn't unlock all essences yet

main vault
#

lucid is more of a skillcap thing than a gear thing

sick sentinel
#

You just push it whenever

#

you feel like you need it and or doing a big pull in a few seconds

warm plinth
#

YOu shouldn't die as a DH no matter your opener anyway. You have like 3 seconds of immunity at the start

sick sentinel
#

Not true

#

at all

warm plinth
#

Blade Dance dodge > Meta immunity > Blade Dance dodge

tame garden
#

and then aoe stun

warm plinth
#

I mean, I am a havoc DH main and that's 100% my experience

left hatch
#

that and i usually will throw in the stun

tame garden
#

and then veng retreat

left hatch
#

for extra soul gen after 2nd eye beam

tame garden
#

:^)

sick sentinel
#

You're taking in the account they have meta

#

You guys obviously dont know about the new blood fang build

#

with fell barage

#

I can be tanking it for 10 seconds

#

be doing 300k dps

#

and they will still rip threat from me

warm plinth
#

I do, but if you're doing keys where you're running that build you're smart enough to not blow your load before tank establishes threat

sick sentinel
#

and die instantly

#

in a 25

warm plinth
#

So it's not really relevant to the question being asked I wouldn't say

sick sentinel
#

They aren't invincible

grave lily
#

its a real good week to burst mobs to 30% and then run out of dmg too

left hatch
#

never said they were, were saying that you should never get threat

sick sentinel
#

It's a very very common occurrence

warm plinth
#

I never said they were invincible.

YOu shouldn't die as a DH no matter your opener anyway. You have like 3 seconds of immunity at the start

#

i've been running some keys getting io, 2 chested a ML 13 just now, and there is a 15 ML in qeue i think i could manage, but i've never done a 15, don't got great io

#

1300

left hatch
#

shouldn't die in your opener =/= invincible?

warm plinth
#

I mean, the 3 seconds of immunity is true

sick sentinel
#

just scared to try, you know.

main vault
#

If you can two chest a 13 you can time a 15

sick sentinel
#

That's if they have meta

left hatch
#

if they don't you have an aoe stun

warm plinth
#

Okay. They still have blade dance and nova

sick sentinel
#

I've seen dhs rip threat immediately

#

and most of them don't use nova

#

why would you use nova

#

and stun dr them?

warm plinth
#

Huh?

sick sentinel
#

maybe in pug bad groups

#

dhs don't do that

#

at all

left hatch
#

to live if you rip threat?

warm plinth
#

I mean, we're not talking about world first keys here buddy

#

We're talking about average players

sick sentinel
#

and I'm talking the other point of view

#

you're saying impossible

warm plinth
#

This isn't Skyhold - World First Players Only

sick sentinel
#

its' not impossible

#

you should look at both sides

main vault
#

Ah moving the goalposts I see

sick sentinel
#

I mean

main vault
#

Classic move

sick sentinel
#

he said what he said

warm plinth
#

I literally never said it was impossible for them to die dude lol

#

Never, ever said that

#

I said "SHOULDN'T"

#

Shouldn't doesn't mean won't btw

#

In case you didn't know

left hatch
#

you also made a definitive statement of "Dh's Do'nt do that at all"

#

which is just as overreaching as " impossible to die"

sick sentinel
#

Theres been already conversations about htis

left hatch
#

don't criticize absolutes out of context and then use an absolute yourself

sick sentinel
#

this

#

lol

#

It makes you look stupid

left hatch
#

how in any way

#

does that make ghash look stupid

sick sentinel
#

Ghash's fine

#

you arne't

#

aren't*

left hatch
#

how?

sick sentinel
#

Have you seen what you said?

#

lol

left hatch
#

calling you out for criticizing an absolute when you used one?

#

or saying that you shouldn't be pulling threat

sick sentinel
#

What are you talking about?

#

Lol

compact atlas

we need an adult

left hatch
#

i have zero idea what you're criticizing me for lol

I'm not criticizing

?

#

I'm confused

#

It makes you look stupid
@sick sentinel

???

I wasn't talking to you

Saying something makes someone look stupid is absolutely criticizing

Those statements are seperate

No; you seem out of it?

DHs are stupid

main vault
#

There is no way at all that could be taken to mean DHs

sick sentinel
#

I mean

left hatch
#

yah...

sick sentinel
#

I did link a video talking about dh threat right?

#

and posted that statement

left hatch
#

and then called 'someone' stupid

sick sentinel
#

right after

main vault
#

Your logic is all over the place

sick sentinel
#

My comments where directly towards the vid

#

lol

main vault
#

Obviously no one else saw it that way

left hatch
#

communication skills could def use some work

main vault
#

Cause it’s like trying to follow a train wreck

tame garden
#

melee dps are not people

left hatch
#

but yeh i agree, if a DH pulls threat and dies itshis own fault

main vault
#

Not a false statement

sick sentinel
#

bear tanks aren't people speg

left hatch
#

if you're running fang you need to wait a few GCD's

tame garden
#

😦

left hatch
#

if you're not you have immunities and are likely at a level you have the benefit of Nova early on

#

for both soul gen for demo reset, and to give your tank a grace period to gain threat

that's what I said from the beginning yes?

main vault

I was just trolling guize

sick sentinel
#

ah another classic

#

You guys are so original

#

👏

main vault
#

Likewise

tame garden
#

give global emotes

sick sentinel
#

I'd love that

tame garden
#

then we dont need trolling for entertainment

left hatch
#

global emotes will come when you stop stacking verse

main vault
#

🎸 is all you need for people like this

tame garden
#

we can post funny emotes instead

sick sentinel

nerf said he's stacking vers and IT

#

no td

#

that's the play

tame garden

@left hatch vers is the future and those who dont invest now will regret

left hatch
#

rip global emotes ):

iron tiger
#

If you have roughly equal gear, are visions easier as prot or as a dps spec?

#

I haven't tried any as prot yet

main vault
#

Fury is pmuch a joke

iron tiger
#

But they're ok as fury

#

Yea I'll stick fury then thanks

main vault
#

Prot is also fine

iron tiger
#

Is prot + tdev trivial?

light ermine
#

long as it procs, td will wipe out pretty much most mobs and elites

left hatch
#

^

#

roll with CoF major and maybe the lazer mechagon punch card

tame garden
#

all 3 specs are pretty good for visions

#

i like fury + tdev

left hatch
#

and prot can pretty cleanly do 5masks

iron tiger
#

My cloak is only like 5-6

#

not quite there yet

left hatch
#

ah, well yeh its pretty trivial

main vault
#

If you are only clearing two zones just do whatever

left hatch
#

learn early on what mobs have fuck you mechanics

#

so you don't mass pull with them

#

and you're golden

iron tiger
#

I already know those from my rogue

#

I 5 mask on my rogue, just not sure if prot is ezmode

left hatch
#

its ezmode

limpid pawn
#

hey, so this week +19 WCM witches/raal the butcher

#

how are you guys doing it successfully - just curious

#

for that level or higher

oblique garnet
#

Reflect abuse

tame garden
#

i assume you mean handling necrotic on raal? whats wrong with witches

limpid pawn
#

maybe it's my group, but people are dropping during p2

oblique garnet
#

On raal you should reset necrotic automaticly if adds are dying

limpid pawn
#

for witches, like after the first witch

left hatch
#

not moving or bad healer

tame garden
#

well theres not rly anything you can do as the tank

#

on witches

oblique garnet
#

Are you kicking off targets aswell

limpid pawn
#

ok, i am reflecting on CD, and kicking on CD

#

which are you kicking, bramble bolt?

oblique garnet
#

Any casts really

limpid pawn
#

yes then I am

left hatch
#

kicking the active witch reduces tank damage

#

kicking a non active witch reduces group damage

oblique garnet
#

You need 1 more person to do the active one with warrior

tame garden
#

for raal just tell dps to focus oozelings and then you get to reset while boss does his pukes

limpid pawn
#

i was kicking bramble bolt b/c i wasn't dying

left hatch
#

also have ppl use their externals a little bfore the boss

limpid pawn
#

nettles killed people ultra quick

left hatch
#

iv had a number of wipes because a shaman still has their 40% DR when they get MCd -_-

limpid pawn
#

i was telling them to use immunities when they get targeted - is this wrong?

#

they didn't listen to me

tame garden
#

they should pre defensive the nettles

#

and then health pot

limpid pawn
#

b/c after it's on someone, it's like instant death it looks like if they didn't use anything

#

what about runic mark damage

#

that rotted the group

#

is spreading basically the only thing to mitigate this other than de-cursing as much as possible?

#

sounds obvious but trying to see who is fucking up

tame garden
#

speading is just for pop at the end of the marks

left hatch
#

idr names, but spreading and constantly moving or jumping

#

to keep the dot from ramping up

#

is necesary

#

sadly theres not much you can do

#

its a massive dps race

#

and if your healer gets behind

#

you're fucked

limpid pawn
#

healer was using vitality conduit

#

is this something that could have messed us up?

left hatch
#

not really my wheelhouse

#

the only thing i forsure know vitality conduit is good for is againt necrotic

#

cause it bypasses it

tame garden
#

idk sounds like bad dps or bad healer

left hatch
#

but that only really applies if your tank is bad and not resetting stacks (or can't)

tame garden
#

vitality conduit is fine, prob a good button to top off nettles targets

iron tiger
#

@left hatch yea it wasnt bad at all

#

felt a tiny bit slower than fury

#

when i get unlucky td procs on the elites

#

but the non elites just melted

left hatch
#

yeh thats why someppl run CoF and punchcard

#

is to help make the bosses/minibosses less of a slog

sick sentinel
#

welp, i completed first 15 i ever did, bit messy but got it done 44 minute ML

#

rough, not always expecting 200-400k abilities.

timber dagger
#

has anyone tried stacking %vers?

sick sentinel
#

don't quote me on this but i think someone said stack versa if you are getting 1 shot until that doesn't happen, then stack crit?

timber dagger
#

stack crit for what, parry chance?

sick sentinel
#

more damage somehow too

mortal brook
#

Its still TD for almost all content

sick sentinel
#

I, for one, am not sad to see necrotic go

sick sentinel
#

Why was I not informed that last boss of JY would destroy my DH

#

I got “wrecked” kek

#

I don’t like the feeling of hoping for the meta proc when I play my DH

i, AM sad to see necrotic go now

#

because i understand it and am one with it

for m+ I use 24% TD but can get 30% with eye up, would you stick to TD or should I get something more defensive if I want to progress +15 and up ?

ionic fern
#

You can pretty safely stick to TD even on +15 and up keys.

hushed creek
#

oh nice 🙂

sick sentinel
ionic fern
#

The damage it provides is really good as you've probably seen.

sick sentinel
#

can't complain with these imo

hushed creek
#

hehe yeah ,but sometimes I wonder if I should be more tanky

ionic fern
#

Just be vary of the Thing from Beyond (if you decide to go 40+ corruption).

hushed creek
#

no no I'm 37 with 30% td

sick sentinel
#

oh i said fuck TFB

ionic fern
#

The majority of your tankiness comes from proper play.

sick sentinel
#

got rid of that mofo immediately after i saw what he does, 2 of em on bug boss UR 350k each

#

nope

ionic fern
#

You can run TD's even into 20+ keys.

sick sentinel
#

big pass on TFB

hushed creek
#

great ,thanks for info:)

#

have a nice day

ionic fern
#

Enjoy.

analog swift

btw

spell reflect tfb

#

storm bolt

#

ez

sick sentinel
#

not worth it imho

#

300k dmg is too much all at once for me atm

#

too much shit already tryin to kill me

ionic fern
#

Play what ever you are comfortable with.
In general we do have the tools to deal with Thing From Beyond so we don't get smacked unless they spawn on top of us. 🙂

sick sentinel
#

sometimes just no avoiding tho, and too big risk of wipe

#

If you aren’t comfortable don’t run it but the chance that TFB is unavoidable AND it will kill you is slim

wispy quartz
#

is there a good weakaura to see what spells are being cast on you?

maiden ravine
#

lol

#

so my dk alt only has td3 on a weapon

#

apparently I should have cleansed it instantly

#

and use what the hell else

left hatch
#

your dk alt is UH right?

#

cause i think UH stacks haste and mastery amps

#

instead of TD

hallow phoenix
#

Stacks mainly haste

#

Something about pet energy

left hatch
#

more energy->more ghoul claw (aoe when xformed) -> crazier festermight window

#

so makes sense

bright jolt
#

does honey pot pie and SoS minor stack?

#

for movement debuff

left hatch
#

i don't believe so

most MS shit just takes the highest instead of overwriting it (like you don't get the 20% from TC)

Hi All.
Maybe you already answer this qustion, but I can't find the answer.
What Essences are you using for 5 Masks visions? I am trying to make my fisrt one, but I failed because I miss dps I think (and a few skill to avoid mechanics too 😄 )
Thx 🙂

bright jolt
#

anima major

left hatch
#

CoF Major, CnS, Null VoP minors

#

never anima major

bright jolt
#

big td guy

left hatch
#

its less dps than VoP

#

and the minor doesn't buff td by that much

bright jolt
#

pull all at once :DDDDD

ionic fern
#

@vivid pecan do you have TD?

#

You pull everything together regardless @bright jolt .

#

AoE DPS is not our concern.

left hatch
#

worst part of 5 masking is bosses

#

hence the CoF

bright jolt
#

l:d

#

VoP is good too

left hatch
#

and punchcard lazer for mechagon trinket

#

yeh VoP is fine

ionic fern
#

I think i'm usually doing
CoF->Cns/Sphere/VoP

#
  • Blast trinket.
left hatch
#

iv been running null when i can do stuff like cheese the fire pools

#

for ez explosions

#

minor*

#

probably not the most consistent tho

I'm just too lazy to think about it.
Don't really enjoy visions.

Hi y’all What’s better? Vers% corruption if not every piece of gear has vers on it or the vers prod corruptions

past berry
#

Visions are annoying after you have done them on a DH, it will piss you off on any other class.

left hatch
#

what level of keys are you doing?

tawdry prawn
#

18-20 lvl key

left hatch
#

neither

ionic fern
#

You don't need vers amps there.

👀

#

Go full ham TD.

tawdry prawn
#

Full td?

left hatch
#

TD and if you want a tfb grab an expedient 3 or IT1

Aha I’ve been so unlucky w them

Maybe they’ll be in the vendor tomorrow
