Teeming is just a dumb affix tbh

Depends on the dungeon though too

#

Facts

warm plinth
#

Some dungeons have brutal trash packs with teeming

still pagoda
#

literally ShPriest complaining about aggro when i died from casts that weren't interrupted

warm plinth
#

What dungeon?

chilly brook
#

It just doesn't follow any logic this xpac

still pagoda
#

ToS

chilly brook
#

Some packs are fine others are literal traps

warm plinth
#

Worst part of ToS this week is ALL THE DERVISHES

still pagoda
#

teeming was actually fine back in Legion

amber siren
#

teeming dervish is literal poison

still pagoda
#

Worst part of ToS this week is ALL THE DERVISHES
@warm plinth
2 packs before dervishes

warm plinth
#

Eh

still pagoda
#

and even before those idiots caught every fucking cleave possible

warm plinth
#

Not a big deal for my comp fortunately

#

:p

still pagoda
#

and blinding sand

amber siren
#

oh the electric dudes?

chilly brook
#

@still pagoda I mean in Legion they didn't flood each dungeon with trash that HAD to be interrupted

still pagoda
#

well

#

ye

warm plinth
#

We have 2 DHs so we can each handle a nimbus on our own

still pagoda
#

and teeming additions were more spread out

sick sentinel
#

shrine seems easy enough, but keep getting people die to random crap. then they start to run back and that alone wastes anywhere from 1-3 minutes

still pagoda
#

instead of just dunking them into one pack

chilly brook
#

Just be a vengeance DH and purge the buff ez

warm plinth
#

Yeah, we have a VDH tank

#

And I'm havoc

still pagoda
#

just play belf

warm plinth
#

So we each just handle a nimbus solo

sick sentinel
#

can't even get an 11 done on time in there this week :S

PLAY SHAMAN

still pagoda
#

purge every shit in the dungeon

neat rapids
#

purging

chilly brook
#

Just be a DH and you can purge with your class ability and have an aoe racial purge

warm plinth
#

Alternate kick/purge, rogue and hunter focus on snek boi

#

And hunter has a backup dispel if we need

chilly brook
#

Like no joke I think I've honestly been having the most fun on my DH

still pagoda
#

i'm currently not having fun on monk

#

but this is mostly due to pugs doing dogshit

neat rapids
#

monk rn is just a worse dh

#

in literally every aspect

still pagoda
#

you're probably mistaking monk and DK

#

since BrM is actually one of the best tank specs rn

neat rapids

TD vs Farolas?

#

for m+

still pagoda
#

TD

exotic spoke
#

TD

flat sigil
#

Small question , for m+ is recommended that tanks should have below 20 active corruption (without that eye)?

exotic spoke
#

That’s up to you. I find the eye isn’t that bad and would recommenced 39 and below

neat rapids
#

I mean

#

what do you purge then?

#

with the cloak

still pagoda
#

Small question , for m+ is recommended that tanks should have below 20 active corruption (without that eye)?
@flat sigil

You can go up to 59

neat rapids
#

theres a reason blizzard gave us the purge

exotic spoke
#

The slow is honestly worse than the eye imo

flat sigil
#

I have now around 35 and would keep mind fly tentacle for awhile

still pagoda
#

prot warr is literally the tank to ignore corruption amount

#

problems start only with cascade

exotic spoke
#

Eh, depends on what you’re doing. I personally enjoy having the freedom to reflect spells that matter and not have to worry about thing from beyond

still pagoda
#

TFB is easily SRable

#

stunnable

#

and fearable

exotic spoke
#

Again, I like having those for things that matter 🙂

still pagoda
#

eye is not a problem unless it procs 2 times in a row

flat sigil
#

@still pagoda did not knew that, tks

still pagoda
#

prot isn't like BrM and doesn't have much TFB's spawning

pliant geyser
#

dont the things not hit all that hard if you use mitigation too

flat sigil
#

TD1 TA2 RP3 atm on me

arctic thistle
#

So i have a question, is it worth buying the Beo 475 shield for 600k for pushing keys. or is 465 shiled good enough for 20-22s?

exotic spoke
#

It’s personal opinion but I stick with 39 or less. Losing out on even a single reflect can be huge

#

I’d get the 475 shield. It’s a large improvement

neat rapids
#

is blood rite any good?

#

the azerite trait

arctic thistle
#

How large are we talking about?

pliant geyser
#

600k is a lot

#

why not just wait and get one to drop

exotic spoke
#

Like, if I remember correctly you go from ~38% mitigation from blocking to ~42% or so with a 475 shield. But I’d have to look at the formulas

#

Because rng is a bitch and it’s never a guarantee from trash and only drops from Il’gynoth

pliant geyser
#

600k is ~120$ if you bought it with tokens or something like that

#

oh

neat rapids
#

gold is way cheaper on eu and asian servers

#

because less people buy gold

exotic spoke
#

That’s also true

pliant geyser
#

whats a token cost on there?

flat sigil
#

20euro = 170k gold

arctic thistle
#

Okey, so 4% more minigation, is it worth 600k?

#

Sounds way to much

warm plinth
#

That's up to you

pliant geyser
#

thats more of a personal question

exotic spoke
#

That’s entirely up to you. But that 4% is doubled when you crit block

warm plinth
#

Idk what kind of income you normally have

pliant geyser
#

is it worth it to you

flat sigil
#

600k for me is way too much

pliant geyser
#

id say probably not

exotic spoke
#

I thought it was personally but I had a lot of gold

warm plinth
#

If 600k is a massive amount to you, then not likely. If you have 10 mil sitting around, then why not

exotic spoke
#

If it had the right corruption I would have paid 1M

neat rapids
#

a token on my server is 180k

exotic spoke
#

And basically what ghash said

neat rapids
#

if I had 10M around I would sell battlenet gifts lol

flat sigil
#

@neat rapids that is why we do not have 10M

exotic spoke
#

Lol so true

arctic thistle
#

Well 600k is alot for me, but at the same time, for 22 keys. i wanna take less dmg ofc. just wanna know if that 4% is a big diffrent overall on dmg taken in higer keys.

exotic spoke
#

Let me get the formula and we can get exact numbers

warm plinth
#

Well the more damage you take, the bigger that 4% is

grand drum
#

K value reduction between a 465 and 475 shield ->.393 to .413

#

Sorry, got distracted.

and couldnt find the 465 armor easily.

#

Hi

#

when do you guys choose Lucid dreams over Conflict ?

main vault
#

Conflict major?

amber siren
#

as a minor or a major?

jagged oar
#

yea

#

as mafor

main vault
#

But

#

Why

jagged oar
#

major*

#

wdym why?

amber siren
#

conflict major is super situational, and lucid is dependent on group makeup

#

most of the time you'll just be using VoP unless organised otherwise

jagged oar
#

so when would you use lucid dreams or conflict ? x)

amber siren
#

lucid if youre doing big pulls on a strict 2 minute rotation with your group cds, using around a mages combustion

#

conflict maj is good for UR to lock down the swarmers if you lack a >=30% slow

jagged oar
#

I saw naowh playin with conflict major on a siege

amber siren
#

can be good on siege too to lock down mobs for the spotters

#

but youre probably not doing a 26 and youre also probably not naowh

fallow sable
#

Avoidance corruption good for prot war?

amber siren
#

no

fallow sable
#

Thought so

chilly brook
#

@jagged oar conflict has its uses and Naowh I'm sure has a specific reason for using it but don't just blindly copy what he is using without at least trying to get an understanding of why

jagged oar
#

thats why i'm asking ^^ @chilly brook

delicate flame
#

I have 2x 12 % versa - which pair of leggs do I pick. 1: ilvl 465 170 hasteand 156 versa 2: ilvl 476 124 haste and 211 mastery?

hard forge
#

@delicate flame i would pick the haste/vers legs

delicate flame
#

Ye thats what im thinking, just not sure.

sweet summit
#

id take the highest ilvl ones

hard forge
#

but depends on how much vers you already have

limpid pawn
#

Man. Since day 1 I’ve been saying ineffable truth is INSANE on prot

delicate flame
#

2319 base

limpid pawn
#

And what do you see, high mythic keys with TD, versatile and ineffable truth

hard forge
#

ok so you have a good amount of vers. @delicate flame do you play TD's if so the ilvl one could be better

delicate flame
#

2 ineffable truth, 1 rank 2 TD, 2 12% versa, 1 rank 2 Surging Vitality.

#

so aiming for lots of versa while still having some TD

hard forge
#

the hard part about the choice is that legs are an ilvl piece where the ilvl does more but also with 24% extra vers the 156 vers is quite good, i would personally go for the haste/vers piece.

delicate flame
#

I lose 90 armor, 68 strength and 148 stam. I do however gain 28,44 more stats because of the 24% extra versa.

#

also the item gives more haste and versa

strong forum
#

So you still lose strength

#

I'd sim it tbh

delicate flame
#

Im prolly gonna look like an idiot now - but I though simming was for DPS. At least thats what ive used it for.

modern brook
#

the super big secret is the difference between 28.44 verse and 90 armor, 68 str, and 148 stamina is so small on the scale of survivability that ur better off ignoring it for damage

amber siren
#

you can sim tank dps is what nome was getting at

delicate flame
#

ye I see that now ^^

still pagoda
#

Just seen 472 pala with 1.8k rio doing only 20-30k HPS maximum

modern brook
#

alternatively, take ilvl and join a pug m maut

sick sentinel
#

However, careful with the sim suggestions to improve DPS. most sims do not consider survivability.

week of bricked keys

#

lower keys are hell

modern brook
#

Honestly ive heard too many people say this week is hard for me to be comfortable puging

still pagoda
#

i just want to gear up my monk

sick sentinel
#

If your healer has to do a ton more healing that that then y’all are prob taking too much damage

still pagoda
#

and pugs do shit

sick sentinel
#

Not really an excuse for not doing it, but still

#

I always say; "if your gonna PUG make sure you get them on voice channel before pulling the key"

modern brook
#

why so they can hear how stupid they are ?

sick sentinel
#

From my experience, people are less toxic and stupid when they are in voice.

still pagoda
#

i was pretty stable enough on HP(despite still having problems with gear and monk in general), but amount of uninterrupted spell casts and healer dying from venting heat on 2nd boss in WS and just being bad...

modern brook
#

I did a 17ws where the healer didnt dispel the tank in 3 pulls then got mad he left T-T

#

i never felt for a guy so hard

still pagoda
#

also ye

#

i've seen late dispels

#

lower keys are hell

modern brook
#

i just see the tank bleeding out while sitting next to me behind the box /cry-ing

#

and i know hes not being dispelled

sick sentinel
#

nice

#

I have /cry macroed

warm plinth
#

That sucks when the healer doesn't do the one mechanic they really have to worry about on that fight lol

modern brook
#

Its literally the only healer mechanic in the dungeon

sick sentinel
#

Excuse me sometimes they have to spread

warm plinth
#

😂

#

Well

modern brook
#

everything else is "avoid damage and heal"

warm plinth
#

There's a dispel on the bot pulls

sick sentinel
#

How are they supposed to heal AND spread

still pagoda
#

and when healer dies from venting heat

warm plinth
#

The Arcing Zap

@jagged oar Conflict Major provdes a HUGE amount of vers especially since its paired with aegis minor, against unblockable damage like bleeds or general magic damage its a good option (you'll see people like Naowh running conflict in alot of keys because theyre also running full vers% with vers sockets which boost the effectiveness of the essence) - very niche for high keys disclaimer before im flamed
Forgot to add, people also run it in underrot alot to to control swarmers and pull bigger packs without needing much healing

sick sentinel
#

All healers are handicapped don’t try to change my mind

#

They are dps brains with a more important role

modern brook
#

In my 4 years of playing wow i have met exactly 2 healers that can both heal and deal damage in a key

still pagoda
#

All lower keys healers are morons with severely deteriorated vision

#

don't @ me

modern brook
#

"sorry i was looking at bars" -definitely not me dying to KR charge boss

#

Just be a havoc DH and dodge everything 🙂

If it’s purple it doesn’t get invited to my group

i have only 2k

modern brook
#

I was pushing 2.5 on my rogue and then i realize i ha a golden opprotunity to be the best sub rogue on my server

sick sentinel
#

Also I don’t invite dh based solely off the principle that they think darkness is their button

#

That’s my button

modern brook
#

And i accidently started an arms war between me and this other guy

still pagoda
#

Wanna go higher but this weeks is even worse

warm plinth
#

The only mechanic I use darkness for myself is Drain Fluids on Mchimba

sick sentinel
#

warm plinth

And that's because my Darkness RNG is broken and actually works like 80% of the time instead of 20%

#

This week isn’t bad @still pagoda

still pagoda
#

pugs literally don't do shit on it though]

sick sentinel

This week is the “how big is your dong to pull big and make up time” week

#

You can play the game for pugs at the 15-17 level

modern brook
#

YEAH i dont get ppl who are like "oh its teaming fortified thats scary"

sick sentinel
#

It can be scary

#

Don’t get me wrong

warm plinth
#

Some pulls are scary but overall it's not that bad of a week

modern brook
#

NO FAM; thats 200k dps EVERY FUCKING PULL LETS GO!!!!!

#

bro i live for this week

#

just keep the 2head monkey hunters off me for quaking

still pagoda
#

already did 2 +14s, +13 and tried to do my +15 on my BrM but group fell apart due to DPS peeps and healer dying from every little scratch(2.5k rio rogue died to slime explosion while pillar was 1m away)

sick sentinel
#

But your job as a tank to know what pulls will be scary and either a) plan cds accordingly or b) don’t pull them

warm plinth
#

Yeah

still pagoda
#

i just can't really pull big on my monk yet

#

warrior? Easily

#

but not on my monk

warm plinth
#

I don't have any experience tanking on a monk this expansion so idk

#

I miss corner tanking from Legion

modern brook
#

ISnt it just Rop-> roll + hope u have a hunter to do aggro stuff for u?

sick sentinel
#

Monk is just group it all up and keg smash

still pagoda
#

maybe i'm doing a lot of things wrong, but last week i was able to easily tank +14's and +15's in 450 on this char

sick sentinel
#

Key is maximizing keg smash

obsidian girder
#

Shall I sim my m+ Dps with dungeon slice ?

sick sentinel
#

And you have an aoe taunt

#

Use it

warm plinth
#

Hunters don't give you aggro

#

Hunters pretend to give you aggro but don't really

modern brook
#

@obsidian girder for fort weeks do a patchwerk 1 target at 2-3 mins; and a 5-6 target 90s pull

sick sentinel
#

That would require Md being on their bars

still pagoda
#

hunters pretend to play normally but go full huntard mode after first pack

warm plinth
#

Well it's not that

#

BM hunters only transfer THEIR damage to you

modern brook
#

you can be lazy w/ dungeon slice but its going to heavily favor st stuff

warm plinth
#

Their pet's damage (which is like 90% of their damage) doesn't count for MD

modern brook
#

just by virtue of how small the pulls ina dslice sim are

sick sentinel
#

Multi shot multi shot multi shot if they are smart

#

But none are

obsidian girder
#

@modern brook ty for your insight

warm plinth
#

Multi shot does like

#

Revenge level damage

sick sentinel
#

Better than nothing ghash leave me alone

#

🤣

modern brook
#

for tyr up the time on the patchwork fight

warm plinth
#

MD is useful for pulling snap packs to you and shit but it's not a reliable threat transfer (if it's a BM hunter)

sick sentinel
#

Long story short bring a rogue

warm plinth
#

Basically

#

Like that's why hunters can't do cannons in TD

#

Because MD doesn't redirect the cannon threat

modern brook
#

Do BM hunters get thorned for their pet damage in maut thorn phase?

warm plinth
#

Uh, idk but if it works like Lightning Shield in ToS, any button the hunter presses hits the hunter. Anything the pet does hits the pet

#

So like, Kill Command would hit the hunter

#

But just normal pet attacks would hit the pet

modern brook
#

got it

sick sentinel
#

I once nearly one shot myself on maut with a TD proc

modern brook
#

thanks #beastmastery :^)

warm plinth
#

Nice Hawgz

#

The true warrior way

modern brook
#

U nearly have enough td then

sick sentinel
#

Only reason I survived was cause I pop last stand for that precise reason

still pagoda
#

honestly, BrM is a really smooth playing spec, but i still can't really get around DPS and a bit around tanking large packs

#

sometimes i have to rely on healer too much unlike on my warrior

warm plinth
#

That's kind of the spec design though because unless you purify, you're not actually mitigating damage

it looks like people are placing greater value in leech rings if you can grab one, even 10 ilvls less (e.g. the ring haste/vers from waycrest)

Exp3 is just a good filler

old flare

Have a ton of expedients because I’m an Arms main so I can fit it in the corruption budget. I also have TD 3 pants and TD 1 gloves. is the extra TD from the gloves worth it over expedient 3 gloves?

yes

Is trinket from N'zoth BIS?

Does Urchin scale with vers?

strong forum
#

yes

inland bolt
#

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

strong forum
#

every numerical value on trinkets that isnt a stat proc scales with vers

#

same with corruptions and essences

inland bolt
#

do you think that trinket would scale well at all with the full vers% + sockets?

#

ive only seen one tank run it again because of the build but I'm not sure if it even compares to just running a nzoth trinket

strong forum
#

50% vers takes it to 7.5k hps unless it scales better

how the hell do you all hold aggro with a fire mage and DH full blasting?

strong forum
#

idk if thats so amazing

chrome palm
#

i just cannot keep it

strong forum
#

do more dmg idk

#

press your buttons, like i have 0 issues, you taunt the main target the mage is blasting

#

rest is just your rotation

sick sentinel
#

Dhs pull more threat than a mage now with proper rotation and build

#

It's an extreme struggle

chrome palm
#

yeah im having major issues

sick sentinel
#

They have to wait

#

nothing you can do about it

#

Half of dh problem is they just blow their load with no regard for humanity

chrome palm
#

if they full AOE at the pull they just peel it all

#

right

sick sentinel
#

there is no way you hold threat from a dh who has everything

#

with fell barrage/ fang, blood and meta

#

not possible

#

Tell them to quit being nerds and wait until you get some threat before going dh on em

#

just have to deal with it and tell them to hold

"there is no way you hold threat from a dh who has everything"

#

"tell them to hold"

theres your answer

sick sentinel
#

He already knows the answer lol

chrome palm
#

yeah it's pretty frustrating in a pug

#

they just call you "shit tank"

when they peel off you and die

Mages are easy to hold threat

only one target peels and you just taunt it

You'll only lose threat on one

Referring to dh btw

#

oh I was like what

#

we were talking about mages

strong forum
#

only pepega dhs blast their load instantly

sick sentinel
#

why did you switch to dh

#

🤔

strong forum
#

if they have the 600k+ dps build

sick sentinel
#

Because I can’t read fast ok

#

So I just bring the conversation back to my reading level

chrome palm
#

use pictures

sick sentinel
#

In a pug a dh blowing their load early falls under the “you pull it you tank it” philosophy and I afk

#

If you lose threat to a fire mage just be stronger

inland bolt
#

yo why is the nzoth trinket recommended over the urchin?

#

im probs just tired so im understanding the math wrong here

strong forum
#

cuz it provides an absorb when you need it for specific mechanics coupled with externals and other stuff

sick sentinel
#

Nzoth is on demand cdr

strong forum
#

urchin is passive HPS which doesnt help vs spirit breaker or scary stuff at all

sick sentinel
#

Tell that to my dh

inland bolt
#

yeah even at low vers the urchin is providing more HPS (smoothening) more damage in general, but i guess the on-demand is more worth

strong forum

the on demand is worth more, yes

its not about the overall HPs

#

ty!

inland bolt
#

just made the pulls smaller, no bs with triple seaspeakers in pugs and abit more logic to how the pulls are grouped

#

obviously if you're comfortable you'd be able to speed it up alot by doing Spider Obelisk with the last boss, it would require a kick order and a healer that's competent to heal missed kicks just incase

sick sentinel
#

i don't fully understand why you have to paste it in hit okay, and then import in mdt, not a big deal though.

im just grateful that someone spent the time to make the addon, I doubt i'd be bothered doing keys if I couldnt organise my info ingame like this

Hey guys, does ignore pain shield take priority over psychic shell shield?

@sand egret You're the absorb tester; have you tested this yet?

Dont ping my Bear Regulars in here!

sick sentinel
#

Just curious. It feels absolutely absurd lol

prisma crane
#

relatively easy to test

#

have both up and get hit for less than their combined totals

#

whichever is leftover isnt priority

sick sentinel
#

is it that i want ineffable and vers corruptions with TD?

#

and crit if i don't have td?

prisma crane
#

if you're running keys where you want vers, you probably arent as interested in TD

sweet summit
#

@sick sentinel you want TD, and fill gaps with ineff/expedient/versatile

sick sentinel

running keys would be generous right now, trying to master shrine of suck

from a defensive point of view

TD for anything tbh

damage intake can be an issue if the dps aren't up to snuff and mobs are allowed to use there abilities multiple times

no

that's just damage taken, it's doable

they stack vers because they can get literally one shot

while playing perfectly*

Just tested. Looks like IP absorb takes priority over psychic shell. That's neat.

I wouldn't mind having that KR trinket with the huge absorb

remember my amazing weekly chest

is there anyway you can like review the last dungeon you did and see what mobs were pulled? cause i went over % even tho im pretty sure i did my route perfectly, ik i prolly went over 2% cuz i didnt take account for joining crew and killed an extra mob, but i was over % by like 5 besides that

i was helping some guildies with a key

one yike

#

uhhh, not as far as i know

darn, they should make an addon for that, itd be a cool review thing, i wish i knew how to code /cry

or good at it for that matter

did you delete scrap it already yet?

and u just enable some setting type /log and upload it with the software

you have to enable advanced logging in your settings

steal BotE from your rogue bro, pull whole area and enjoy your 500k DPS

then do /combatlog

and upload through warcraft logs program

shows what attacks ppl use, where mobs move, when ppl die or get buffs

Is there a function of logs I'm not aware of that would actually help you know what you pulled though?

#

Like I don't see how that would help you determine that

sweet summit
#

not that im aware of

M+ logs are barely supported as it is, relative to raid logs

can you even use the replay function in m+ so see where you walked?

is obelisk affected by fort?

warm plinth
#

The lieutenant isn't. The adds might be? They're affected by other affixes but not sure about fort; my guess would be no though

their HP does change from tyrann to fort in MDT, dont remember exactly what increases it tho

sick sentinel
#

lieutenant is one of the 4 guys correct?

sweet summit
#

ye

warm plinth

Yeah

#

Their adds are affected by affixes, but the lieutenants themselves shouldn't be

But I don't know if adds are affected by fortified or not since I never really checked. Never felt like they were 🤷

nah i feel like the small adds just the the +4 and +7 affix

is obelisk affected by fort?

You're pulling too much here

i dont know tbh

#

Just skip this shit and get more trahs early on

is that a teeming mob?

does it matter? i mean time used early on is the same as time used later on no? as long as % is good? Im new to tanking

You may want to use skips more efficiently

Red pack can be terrible if people in your group like to pull trash with their butts

if i change dungeon difficulty all mobs hsould be the same besides the teeming ones right? so i can go through siege right now and look at my route from inside the dungeon

Teeming ones don't change except for G2, G27 and G29 in AD iicr

I've seen quite a few crit > vers comments recently, is that actually the case? Or is that for specific situations?

crit is better than vers unless you really need the small consistent DR from vers, defensively

#

parry is yuge in m+

cosmic coral
#

are these mobs reachable with a 40 yd spell? like a hunter aa or mage frostbolt

sweet summit
#

druid sun/moonfire can hit them

#

so i guess yeah

cosmic coral
#

so anything 40 yds then?

olive bay
#

True.. Ok that's great to know, thanks. With haste being the prio right? Reckon a 450 gorecrusted is better than a 445 humming or rezans?

why not both?

@warm plinth my shell is on my bear so sadly i haven't done any IP testing with it

does damage reflected by SR get modified by verse?

or demo shout?

Are Mchimba's Ritual Bandages any good?

mortal brook
#

not really necessary for most content

#

within its class, raid absorb trinket is much better comparatively

#

but other trinkets like stat sticks will outperform it even defensively in most cases, cuz secondaries are stronk

jovial rampart
#

Too bad anger management doesnt apply to trinket cooldowns!

sick sentinel
#

new trinket

jovial rampart
#

Pardon if this was asked before.. What about vers proc vs. Constant vers? I feel like its half vers all the time against double vers half the time.

main vault
#

Both can be good, constant probably better, a mix is ok too

#

You need like 6675 base Vers for vers% to equal to proc

#

Idk war specific, but for Bear we want 1 proc with 2-3 %

#

Then TD

jovial rampart
#

LOL, thats all? Just 6675?

main vault
#

Yup that’s it lol

#

6675 * .12 = 801

#

Again, don’t know War specific cause it’s just an alt, but neither are great by themselves

#

But together they are solid

jovial rampart
#

Is there a number to shoot for on vers? Percentagewise? I read that vers scales down for offensive, but up for defensive. Offensively speaking is there a point where vers drops off hard? Defensively it is always good? Is that right?

main vault
#

Naw there isnt

#

200% is cap so

#

and it scales linear

jovial rampart
#

Thanks!

sharp night
#

hard cap is at 99% for defense, no cap for offense*

main vault
#

yeah sorry, 198%

sharp night
#

but the hard cap is almost 17k vers so that's not really achievable realistically

sick sentinel
#

i'm pretty sure the trinket i got just now is good, but what should it be paired with from dungeons?

burnt iron
#

What are the best trinkets to use in m+? Atm i use vita and humming but im a super new prot warrior learning everything as i go, i've seen nerftank uses the nzoth one alot in his high keys is that worth using in 15-18 keys or should i just stick with vita/humming

jovial rampart
#

I use the wrathion haste trinket because its uptime is ridiculous, and the alchemy trinket for the vers and that potion boost has saved me more times than i can count.. I am only at 18ish but I haven't experienced a scenario where a straight defensive trinket would sound appealing

burnt iron
#

Makes sense, guess ill stick to vita humming then and see how it goes, i'm only 468 atm and really not well optimised so hopefully over the next couple days ill optimise my gear a bit more

jovial rampart
#

Well haste is king.. Haste=rage=reduced cooldowns on everything good when spent as fast as possibme.

#

Possible

main vault

i used that and the aoe EP trinket together all the time in m+ 8.2

#

fang is good? could have sworn i heard in past terrible

warm plinth
#

Fang has always been good but you have to use it properly. E.g. Stunning the mobs prior to using it so you don't get insta-gibbed

#

Since you can't block/dodge/parry during the channel

sick sentinel
#

yeah, same with warstomp, even though only 0.5s cast

#

so much less likely you get hit during that, but still very possible

#

engineer bombs too, but they are irrelivant

which of these rings is the best?

main vault
#

I ran that route earlier in a pug and two cheated

sick sentinel
#

is it better to do the ele or the bridge pull?

#

either one can be really nasty

#

I mean if you can communicate how to solo the ele to your team it's free. Otherwise as long as you're pulling left bridge and not right bridge pack that's also free

#

it said to pull those alone, but i had issue finding the spot to pull from, and optional ele +2 pack is enough to get 100% at end

cosmic coral
#

is it safe to do an exact 100% for m+?

#

i dont wanna be like .01% off if i follow a route i made that gives exactly 100%

warm plinth
#

Depends on the dungeon; like KR for example the numbers aren't exactly correct

#

In MDT

#

For teeming that is

cosmic coral
#

siege?

shadow wind
#

depends on how good you are at tagging gutters

cosmic coral
#

dont need the gutters that u need to tag off the main path for my route

#

well atleast i hope not, about to go into a 12 to see if i can do it with the perfect 100% without actually being off like .01%

shadow wind
#

then just roll with what you have in mind

Any advice on living through dissolve on mythic shad? I’m getting chunked unusually hard by dissolve, crush and melee attacks just tickle me but dissolve requires a healer cd and an internal cd too. Any advice on maybe essence choices? Or anything really

@ripe helm ty I’m running mythic maut I’ll run heroic nzoth trinket too and see if it lets me live lol

nzoth trinket a lot better imo, if you are gonna use one use the nzoth one

oh nvm it just fixed itself

ripe helm

shield wall also good to use for the double dissolve

mental anchor

Yeah I need to make sure I still have it may need to recover lol

cosmic coral
#

my route worked yay

#

how do i know if its good tho, cuz i went into a pug and their dps were kinda poopoo

#

it was a 12, and we coulda 2 chested it but i feel like that shoulda been an easy 3 chest, i was top dps

run it a few more times

vocal skiff

So a bit of a dumb question, but do you ever have issues with taunting a specific target when you are tanking multiple mobs depending on camera angle etc? Like, sometimes it's difficult to have precision with the mount to target it

#

If so, is there any way to remedy or mitigate it?

cosmic coral
#

just tab kek

vocal skiff
#

What if you need to taunt right away and tab won't collaborate with you

cosmic coral
#

ive never had that issue personally so i couldnt say, i always get my click or tab

stacking name plates can help

Anyone know how to view, for example, damage taken from BOTH entropic crashes (drestagath and her tentacles as the sources) in warcraft logs, on the same page in the same chart

ionic fern
#

@hallow phoenix what do you mean? it already shows it on the same page?

hallow phoenix
#

I'd like to see a taken by friendly page

#

but with only those two sources of damage (tentacle entropic crash and drestagath entropic crash)

#

So something like this but filtered for just those two abilities combined

cosmic coral
#

how do u guys deal with TD in tol dagor?

amber siren
#

don't face towards walls

still pagoda
#

don't face towards walls, pull tricky packs(like officer and marksman at the entrance to barracks before 3rd obelisk) away from walls and potential wall/butt pulls

cosmic coral
#

what if u have to like move your character and td procs, cuz thats happened to me when i heal TD

icy harness
#

kek

cosmic coral
#

do u just run straight through group and then turn?

#

or backpeddle?

icy harness
#

hi speg

tame garden
#

@icy harness Pepexecute

icy harness
#

my dh friend usually backpeddles

#

i just dont bother facing the walls

cosmic coral
#

yea i tried that the first time i went into tol dagor with a TD and i died like 10 times

icy harness
#

with time you learn where its crucial to not face the walls

#

you definitely dont want to pull the firestarters + officer

#

from the inside OR outside

#

everything else is pretty chill

still pagoda
#

i back peddle a lot in TD

winged coyote
#

Hay, is there any art of Versatility cap or a pointless amount of % for Prod warri?, for example i have 26%Haste and 13% versa... should i go with haste or versa coruption ? (Focus Myth+)

cosmic coral
tame garden
#

Lol

#

2 bloodswarmers is always risky. Add in limited room to kite and 3 maggots to also dodge/cc

#

Would not recommend

cosmic coral
#

yea those bloodswarmers can really fuck u up so thats why i was unsure, i guess ill just keep it out of my route

#

can i pull those lashers to the right of that group without picking up that group?

tame garden
#

Yes those lashers pat

cosmic coral
#

sik

#

ty

still pagoda
#

ignore that pull you're talking about

#

it is really not worth it

#

too risky

cosmic coral
#

darn i really wanted to not do any obelisks with last boss, but i guess its gonna be neccesary higher keys since mbos wont die as fast

still pagoda
#

pfff

#

blob is easy

cosmic coral
#

i didnt like doing it when i healed a 21 UR , so much poopoo on the ground

tame garden
#

Tank just needs to do big moves after each puke to give extra room for blob puddles

still pagoda
#

well

#

you have a choice of bricking the key while doing both last obelisks, OR having a chance to brick it if your tank/DPS are dumb while doing blob

#

taking spellcaster to last boss is way riskier

cosmic coral
#

just bring 3 ele shammys ez

still pagoda
#

inting

cosmic coral
#

does the puke shit last boss does despawn after awhile or no?

tame garden
#

It despawns

amber siren
#

as long as youre taking the boss slowly around the room, it'll despawn before you get back to it

cosmic coral
#

ah okay, just wanted to know so when i do blob with last boss i can move enough to get away without fucking up the whole room

amber siren
#

the blob should (hopefully) be dead before his slime and the bosses puke start to deny your pathing

hallow phoenix
#

blob is my favorite lieutenant to kill with last boss

still pagoda
#

because it does nothing

hearty portal
#

he doesn't spawn the eyes?

#

if you pull him with the boss

still pagoda
#

yes

#

he doesn't

amber siren
#

the obelisks will only spawn adds if you fight them in their realm, on the last boss it's just them

hearty portal
#

aight haven't done a M+ where you fight them with the boss yet

still pagoda
#

you can do the AD gamble with tankbuster on last boss

burnt iron
#

We tried that pull in an 18 underrot yday and lets just say it didnt go well

still pagoda
burnt iron
#

Theres far too many mobs and things to focus on, no room to even move with bloodswarmers

still pagoda
#

well

#

ye

#

i just grouped this shit up despite not doing it like this usually

burnt iron
#

Its super annoying to skip the pack if you dont have a rogue though so what we did was pulled big at the start then lust and use obelisk to obelisk near crawg then took that obelisk back to 1st boss

still pagoda
#

usually i just pull around the right side of Crag and go to 3rd boss first

ionic fern
#

👀

#

You should clear the full room before lust is up again + most enemies down to the next boss if the affixes allow for decent sized pulls.

still pagoda
#

well... Dunno, maybe will try

#

since lust usually caters towards being up right after 3rd boss and all of Crag trash is dead for me

#

maybe it's just pugs slacking on dps

ionic fern
#

Interesting route.

#

You know that you can tag the guys i marked in yellow as well to pull together with Skeletons je?

still pagoda
#

first time hearing.

ionic fern
#

If you are using the route you linked then you might atleast want to change that..pull some of the flying dudes instead of the 2 separate worms at the end.

#

🤷

still pagoda
#

mhm

#

ty

#

well

#

you gave me idea on how to scare the shit out of pugs even more

Looking at bloodmallet's testing setup, they don't have any Bastion of Mights on their Azerite.
After looking at my average Avatar uptime(50-70%), I'm wondering if Masterful is significantly underrated as it isn't being simmed accurately by bloodmallet, and its synergy with Ineffable Truth is missed out on too.

#

Any thoughts? I haven't run any sims but also haven't read any theorycraft about it.

still pagoda
ionic fern
#

@fervent ice Bloodmallet is taking the "default" gear which is put together with ST in mind.

#

You should sim your character on raidbots.com with your own gear for best results in regards to DPS.

trail dome
#

If you mean from a survivability PoV it's probably mostly overkill. People take vers afaik because in addition to helping with phys it helps live through magic damage.

ionic fern
#

On top of that with things like Twilight Devastation being available Masterful has no way of keeping up. 👀

trail dome
#

Like during avatar with sblock up you're already insanely resilient to phys attacks.

fervent ice
#

@ionic fern will do.
I'm mostly interested in reaching ~100% crit block chance during Avatar and I think I could get there with only one or two Masterfuls and then start the Vers stacking.
I have T Dev 3 and 4 more of it in my bags, so, looking at stat corruptions to save for.

ionic fern
#

Why are you looking at such things tho? What content are you doing?

fervent ice
#

+19-21

ionic fern
#

Stacking vers/mastery is in general not the "best way".

#

👀
That's not high enough to warrant losing out on things like TD.

#

The damage intake is not that big.

still pagoda

last time i remember doing mastery stacking was in Antorus 👀
