trail dome
#

but you have to soothe all the skellies don't you?

warm plinth
#

Just one

#

It only goes on one skeleton

trail dome
#

oh really? I always assumed with how quickly it was reapplied it was on the whole pack

#

i guess it does give them 100% haste too

amber siren
#

2.5 second cast, 5 second CD

cosmic coral
#

so basically i watch for wicked frenzy int and my dps focus on the raise dead int

warm plinth
#

You can only stun the wicked frenzy cast. Can't be kicked

trail dome
#

^

amber siren
#

yep

sick sentinel
#

Max melee speed. Skeletons have no wind resistance.

cosmic coral
#

so i shockwave it?

warm plinth
#

Yeah

#

shockwave, storm bolt, w/e

trail dome
#

shock & bolt

#

have dps focus him down

#

if it goes off have rdruid soothe the skeleton then dispel you

#

i'd fucking run until those 2 globals happen

#

because that shit really hurts

cosmic coral
#

does he cast it quickly or no? like if i stun him will i have stun up again or should my dps get ready to stun it/

trail dome
#

you have 2 stuns

warm plinth
#

He'll immediately recast it when the stun expires

trail dome
#

^

warm plinth
#

Well, near immediately anyway

cosmic coral
#

i do? i thought i only had shockwave

trail dome
#

storm bolt

cosmic coral
#

o nvm talent

#

ive been running rumbling earth

trail dome
#

storm bolt is bis

sick sentinel
#

That joke was comedic gold and you all disappoint me

amber siren
#

it's a 2.5s cast so you don't need amazing reactions but depending on the key, you might run into stun DR before you need soothes

trail dome
#

also uh

#

when i was doing UR 20

#

the fucking charge thing the matrons do really claps

#

idk if / what ranged you have

#

but careful of that one

cosmic coral
#

gonna have a hunter

#

do i just make sure im not in his los?

#

my hunters i mean, so matron doesnt hit me

warm plinth
#

Nah it only does damage when she gets where she's going

trail dome
#

The charge?

warm plinth
#

Yeah

trail dome
#

I swear it does damage as soon as she picks a target

#

before she gets there

#

It's 1am though maybe i'm misremembering

warm plinth
#

I've never taken damage from it before and I'm melee so I would pretty much always be between her and the hunter

#

Unless she charged in melee ofc

trail dome
#

oh sorry

#

right i see what you're saying

#

it doesn't matter if she goes through you

warm plinth
#

Right

trail dome
#

but it will instantly damage your hunter, is what i mean

cosmic coral
#

i never knew blood matron was a she, i guess i shoulda known by the "matron" in the mobs name

trail dome
#

you can't dodge the damage

warm plinth
#

Yeah

#

I don't tihnk so, no

trail dome
#

it was nearly oneshotting our mage

warm plinth
#

Yeah it hurts a lot

trail dome
#

if he didn't have barrier up

warm plinth
#

Especially on firt week

#

fort

cosmic coral
#

also, since im doing blob with last boss, how far do i wanna be going when boss does his puke stuff?

trail dome
#

i do about twice as far as normal

#

but that's not super helpful

warm plinth
#

I've never done blob with him so idk

#

We've only ever done fear guy with him

trail dome
#

idk if you know but

#

blob drops pools on self, dps, self, dps

#

if you are really tryharding you can pay attention to that (or maybe make one other person in your group pay attention to it) and call it out

#

which can make dropping them a bit easier

cosmic coral
#

ah , i didnt know htat actually, do u know the seconds between the drops?

warm plinth
trail dome
#

nah

#

i just have a dungeon WA suite with those but yeah that looks good

warm plinth
#

Won't have the CD for the player targeted spit but it does have CD for his self spit, but the targeted one typically happens right before or right as he does the self spit

cosmic coral
#

i was mostly wanting to know the self spit since my dps wont neccesarily be like directly on top of me, just in the premise of that yellow circle thing

warm plinth
#

That'll be perfect then

trail dome
#

i did UR (only a 15-16 or smth tho to help weekly) earlier today

#

and i will say

#

blob & quaking is actual kinda a meme on last boss

#

finding places to stand can sometimes be a challenge.

#

that said the run was 3 trap alts so

warm plinth
#

Yeah, I'm sure all it takes is a quaking to happen as he spits and now you have 2 random ass pools

trail dome
#

also if you have a druid

#

have them bait matrons

#

just sit in bear

#

👍

stiff oracle
#

wait till you do that boss on quaking with fear and blob obelisk at the same time in MDI

#

makes for a very fun encounter

trail dome
#

I do not want that.

#

Wait if it's MDI though you have revival I guess

#

which sounds helpful.

#

Which one did you kill 1st? Fear guy I assume?

stiff oracle
#

focus fear (revival 1st set of fears, fear immunes second set of casts)

#

dps check is that it dies before 3rd fears go out

warm plinth
#

Yeah deifnitely fear

#

definitely*

trail dome
#

ezclap

#

I love how thunderclap works on that boss fight

#

you get to pretend to be a DK

#

It's nice.

slender veldt
#

For pushing 22+ keys would you use mythic scale or alchemy trinket. My stats are 25%crit, 26% haste, 27% mastery, 8% vers. My other trinket is lingering. I’m leaning towards scale, but the increased health pot is nice.

cosmic coral
#

how is your hsate so low wtheck

amber siren
#

i don't think there's ever really been a case where i've thought that extra pot hp would of saved me

cosmic coral
#

health pot kinda tickles ngl

trail dome
#

go vers build peepoHappy

#

omg and alch stone has vers on it too

amber siren
#

yeah that's where i thought that question was going when i saw alch trinket

trail dome
#

but to be helpful i'd go dragonscale unless you're playing vers stacking then i'd have a very serious think about what in the dungeon could potentially burst you

#

and if you don't think of that much it'd definitely be dragonscale

craggy harness
#

hmm, going to try visions again soon, should i be using dps trinkets together

#

like 460 jar and the mech channel trink

#

or stick with haste trinkets

trail dome
#

but i mean maybe the hpot? I dunno, it doesn't seem that good unless you're playing a tonne of versatile %

#

dragonscale has a tonne of uptime

pliant bane
#

Whats your guys ideal essence in m+?

amber siren
#

i wouldnt use jar, our aoe dps is already pretty good, mech trinket with the single target slot i forget the name of is pretty handy

slender veldt
#

K, thanks guys

craggy harness
#

tnx

#

i was hoping for a miracle cure for my butterfingers

#

but guess not 😉

cosmic coral
#

would u guys recomend spider or blob for last boss UR?

warm plinth
#

I guess it kinda depends on your comp and if you have good communication

amber siren
#

blob

warm plinth
#

Like the problem with spider is that you have to move a lot on that fight

#

And chances are you don't have multiple ranged kicks (and if you do, that means casts are going off)

amber siren
#

outside of the mechanics of the last boss, actually getting to the blob obelisk means killing trash you can't chain together since they'll need kicks rotating (deathspeaker, worm and the faceless dude)

#

it's a big time loss

warm plinth
#

Yep, that's why we ended up doing fear guy with the boss because it saves significant time skipping that last obelisk

sick sentinel
#

Most people do interrupt boio in high keys as fear can one shot people

#

And slime can fuck people

#

But thats high keys

#

Lower probably better to do fear

cosmic coral
#

gonna do a 20, whats your recomendation?

sick sentinel
#

Still fear probably

#

Doing the defiler and worm

#

Is really bad in pugs

#

It gets fucked easily

cosmic coral
#

doing it with guildies

patent falcon
#

Hey Im new as War (prot)
What is stats to focus boys ?

sick sentinel
#

Ilvl > haste> vers=crit

patent falcon
#

Okay I tought Mastery was in

#

thanks

sick sentinel
#

Mastery worst

#

Because bom and just not a good stat in general

cosmic coral
#

bom=bastion of might azerite trait

pliant bane
#

how are you meant to tank the last boss in underrot

#

i have no idea how vile explusion works and im not tanking it properly at all

rocky garnet
#

You get everyone to stack on you, he cums, you move him away and then go to edge of cum

#

Repeat

pliant bane
#

so you always get hit by the explusion ?

rocky garnet
#

You being between the shit on the ground and the boss

#

No you move as he’s casting it

pliant bane
#

because it seems to me like

#

it just goes everywhere

#

including

#

behind me

rocky garnet
#

So if everyone’s stacked, once he’s targeted a person and he’s casting it, you start moving and you won’t get hit

amber siren
#

if you move too early, or he's too close to a wall that he's facing, it will splash back into the room

rocky garnet
#

Also true

amber siren
#

just face him backwards, everyone stack, he starts to vomit, you move forward and stack close to the new puddle

rocky garnet
#

The key is to get everyone to stack and then it won’t get that hairy

#

And they didn’t patch the healing off orbs like they said they did, so added plus for prot wars

#

(Victory rush)

amber siren
#

it is quaking this week so it doesn't need to be a tight stack, just as long as everyone is baiting his vomit backwards and not into the path you're rotating the boss

quaint yoke
#

how impactful is the block stat on shields?

amber siren
#

very

warm plinth
#

Incredibly so

quaint yoke
#

guessing it affects block amount then?

amber siren
#

sure does

quaint yoke
#

so i guess 10 ilvl wins over a socket all the time then

amber siren
#

100%

#

especially since you can eventually just buy a socket for it anyway

quaint yoke
#

yeah i was wondering if it's semi-equal i'd keep the socket

#

but in this case i'm gonna switch to the higher ilvl

amber siren
quaint yoke
#

because i could've prioritised adding sockets on other gear first

amber siren
#

true, usually you'd add sockets to gear you're guaranteed to have 100% or near 100% uptime with

#

so weapons make a good choice for that

quaint yoke
#

how much block stat is 1% block reduced damage?

warm plinth
#

Depends on the content. But going from like a 465 shield to a 475 shield is like 3% reduced damage from blockable things in M+

#

Double that for crit blocks

quaint yoke
#

that's pretty huge

warm plinth
#

Yeah especially considering we crit block a lot during Avatar with BoM

sick sentinel
#

I’m guessing the shield is also a good place to eventually stick the TD3 enchant when it’s sold

warm plinth
#

Assuming you have a 475, yeah

sick sentinel
#

Yeah. 475 mecha, but still

maiden lake
#

Hello protheads.. may i ask how do we solo storm ele in sots? Reflect every alternate cast but when its down what are we supposed to do?

main vault
#

you have the healer in range but not aggro

next stone
#

I saved up 20k residuum to buy azerite. The one im planning to buy would put me at 3 Overwhelming Powers. Is that still alright or redundant

main vault
#

haste is never redundant

sick sentinel
#

A shield isn't a good spot for me sadly

#

I have 3 475s lol

#

That i switch between

#

Weapon i can put it on tho

#

475 socketed

dawn jasper
#

RNG gods favour the mighty

#

So not me

#

No 475 weps this time round 😭

sick sentinel
#

I tried for 3 months

#

Don't think lucky

left hatch
#

^

#

ppl that have their choice of 475

#

earn it

dawn jasper
#

I know, i was trying to make a joke at my expense. Seems it worked even better than I intended

sick sentinel
#

You werent joking

hushed cobalt
#

for shoulders and m+, all 480s, my HAC sim is skitra ones > kraken > tank busters (or in azerite terms, HoD > MS > CW); that looks about right, right?

modern brook
#

Yeah, makes sense to me

#

Hod is a lot of stats

sick sentinel
#

Any tips for putting groups together in general?

#

i've always been really meh at selecting great players for my runs

#

or following what 1 class can offer buff/debuff like i heard DH has +magic intake debuff or something, so take lock ele mage that type of thing.

icy harness
#

dh rogue mage is the fotm choice

#

but you want an aoe clear, you want some cc and utility and then you want a ranged in each group

sick sentinel
#

hunters are really usefull

#

good hunters make life easy

inland silo
#

in like the +15 range

#

hunters and warriors are very strong

#

mage is super bad

sick sentinel
#

shadow priest is nice some times too

inland silo
#

DH is still very good

#

but at that range you also mostly want to filter by server and raider.io

#

since anything will work

sick sentinel
#

by server?

inland silo
#

are you NA or EU

sick sentinel
#

NA NYC time

#

is it one of those things that if i get grouped with west coast it creates lag?

stiff oracle
#

shadow priest is nice some times too
@sick sentinel you take that back right now. Think about all the poor priest players in here you just gave a shimmer of hope, only to log on to face reality again.

still pagoda
#

so... My armory got updated

#

now it's only rio that's left

#

hope that my statistics won't be gone in on poof

stiff oracle
#

Hopefully ill have time to play some today

#

Get some more 20s done yep

#

Also, @still pagoda welcome to kazzak. May your tradechat be forever unreadable

warm plinth
#

tfw you are spamming the everliving shit out of your cloak keybind in a dungeon to clear eye of corruption after 20 stacks and then you remember you don't actually have the cloak level for the removal 😂

Oh the russi server

I dont hang there much peepoHappy

stiff oracle
sharp rover
#

How much corruption do you guys run?

#

I ran 55 in FH 15 and ~43% of my damage taken on the Harlan fight was corruption related

sick sentinel
#

Wtf how

still pagoda
#

TFB

placid oar
#

I run below 40 as a new tank

sharp rover
#

A little bad luck

still pagoda
#

i run 53 and don't have any issues

#

just reflect dat shit

sharp rover
#

Can you reflect TFB?

still pagoda
#

yes

#

you can

sharp rover
#

w h a t

#

For the 25% magic damage reduction, or does it actually reflect all of the damage?

#

That's completely hecked if it reflects the entire TFB

still pagoda
#

it relfects

#

TFB counts as a targeted spell

sick sentinel
#

And you can storm bolt it

#

And shockwave

#

I have gone entire runs without getting hit once

ionic fern
#

What on earth
43%.

#

Meanwhile i get 3% overall in a dungeon from Corruption damage.

sick sentinel
#

Just dont play over 40 and u wont be worrying about it ezpz

stiff oracle
#

Reflect, stormbolt, fear, shockwave, kite greenbear

#

Or just tank it peepoHappy

sick sentinel
#

Or just dont do it xd

stiff oracle
#

I dont, but theres plenty of reasons to not get hit by it

sharp rover
#

I just want to clarify that I'm pretty overgeared for a 15 so I'm taking disproportionately low physical damage too

sick sentinel
#

But youre exhausting valueable cds, effort, globals and possible bad rng deaths costing keys

stiff oracle
#

Definitely, which is why I dont do it

sharp rover
#

So I need to play better, basically

still pagoda
#

just facetank TFB's between reflects

#

it's not a problem even in mid keys

sick sentinel
#

But having to use reflect on tfb instead of something actually useful

#

Another reason

ionic fern
#

Up to the person themselves to decide if they want to run above 40 or not. 🤷
I don't mind TFB - think i've died to it like..2-3 times total since the start.
More often than not you have room to kite and/or SR ready for it.

sick sentinel
#

And its not tfb that actually matter

#

Its the slow

#

The slow kills people

#

You are basically hard rooted

#

At the worst timea

ionic fern
#

I mean..you don't have to run 59+ corruption o.o

#

The slow at like 40-45 is np.

sick sentinel
#

From a high key standpoint a 40/50% slow still can kill u

#

And rng deaths

#

Are not fun

ionic fern
#

Run w/e you are more comfortable with. 🤷

still pagoda
#

i just need it for one dispute that may heat up right now(i was literally called a streamer simp in my former guild's discord, so i just want to remind them of faction statistics beyond wowprogress)

stiff oracle
#

😂

amber siren
#

are they arguing about faction imbalance? afaik the only region that's alliance dominant is oceanic

#

like with NA or EU, if you want to raid seriously you go horde unless you're really adamant on alliance for some reason and you have to go guild/server shopping

ionic fern
#

D w a r f.

#

Best reason to be alliance.

#

^ and the only

#

#

that's all

amber siren
#

don't do gnomes like that

still pagoda
wicked orchid
#

So, as a prot warrior should I worry about how much crit I have? And if so about how much do I want?

amber siren
#

crit is a good stat to have but there's no soft or hard caps for crit, or any of our stats

#

just follow the priority system

wicked orchid
#

What I've been doing is neglecting crit and trying to get haste since I barely had any, but It's gotten to the point that I only have 12% crit and 35% haste

#

And I'll be sure to check out the stat priority, I just wanted to make sure that I've been totally messing up my stat amounts and crit was pretty good or something like that

amber siren
#

if your highest ilvl gear (outside of rings and trinkets) gave you like 60% haste and 4% crit, then that's still fine, all stats are good for us

orchid frigate
#

ugh that witch in the pack to the left of the triad just deleted me on a +17

#

didnt even have time to react before i was dead

amber siren
#

as you start getting more pieces you can mix and match a little more, i.e. crit gains value for DPS or in m+ crit is better than vers or mastery since parry gains more value the more mobs that are hitting you

wicked orchid
#

Ah ok, makes sense I'll keep that in mind, thanks!

still pagoda
#

"Statistics are irrelevant"

#

🤣

#

"Faction imbalance is made by people like you!"

#

Armory updated early in the morning. Rio still can't catch up 🦀

brittle owl
#

resync your blizz acc after you do a few runs and it shows on blizz's leaderboard

still pagoda
#

the problem is a bit different. https://raider.io/characters/eu/kazzak/Memphetide

I resynced after warr showed up in armory. Warcraftlogs caught up immediately, while rio started to drop key logs onto new page and YEETed out old one

Raider.IO

Raider.IO is a World of Warcraft (WoW) Mythic+ and Raid Progression rankings site! You can view your Character & Guild Profiles, check your Mythic+ scores & Raid Progress, follow the Race to World First, and much more.

#

not a problem since i can just time all 17's and 18's with my own key

#

and i hope it will show gear and other stuff from armory soon

brittle owl
#

aaah i think it has something to do with

#

namechange as well

still pagoda
#

well

#

yes

#

moving from RU to EU

brittle owl
#

you serv transf+faction change+namechange

still pagoda
#

yes

brittle owl
#

prob why it's fucky

still pagoda
#

name change came with server transfer

brittle owl
#

rio scrubber is kinda janky as is

still pagoda
#

so i don't think it's a problem

brittle owl
#

can you use cyrhillic on a non EU server for your name?

#

non ru*

still pagoda
#

you can't

brittle owl
#

that's why then

still pagoda

not a big problem

brittle owl
#

ya

#

just don't get your hopes up for sync

#

90% sure it won't ever happen

still pagoda
#

Warcraftlogs synced perfectly though

so it's probably issue on rio side

brittle owl
#

wcl doesnt use blizz api

still pagoda
#

ik

#

it only uses data from battle.net to update character list

brittle owl
#

yep

#

rio scrubs directly from blizz leaderboard, so it prob can't make the association simply due to the naming conventions and rules

hasty quest
#

Guys, a question a bit out of this channel, I struggle a lot timing AD 19-20, do you have any route suggestion for this dung?

brittle owl
#

standard routes work just fine in 19-20 🤷‍♂️

#

it's more about execution of class than anything really

#

what route are you doing?

still pagoda
#

you may try doing it like this. Technically it's the same standard route as what most people do here, but without double honor guard packs

brittle owl
#

do you not do shieldbearers? 🤔

still pagoda
#

i do them

#

just different colour]

#

that was an accident due to me restructuring pulls

#

and i've placed them into the pull with last boss

#

overpull is present due to rng of G2

smoky wave
#

Can you get the ob by the grass without pulling the pack there?,

compact dock
#

is warrior best tank for mythic + in shadowlands 2nd big patch?

amber siren
#

nah you'd have to do a skip for the grass obelisk

still pagoda
#

Can you get the ob by the grass without pulling the pack there?,
@smoky wave

pull it away with hunter, mage or rogue

#

i did it yesterday in +18

smoky wave
#

Ah right, ok, I've been putting to the grass and taking that pack. AD is one of those I struggle to time on still (plebbing at 15s atm)

marble cipher
#

Double honorguard on fort is just a big no, so it's way better to have some sort of skip to activate that pillar

still pagoda
#

^

#

just as doing spider obelisk with last boss is a big no

#

so just find a hunter who is not dumb

#

#1seconddeplete

#

never ever again i will take people from Свежеватель Душ

#

it is just like Черный Шрам, but for RU horde

marble cipher
#

Looking at your route @still pagoda , considering the mage pulls-invis-skips the packs, does he then stay in invis and join you using the previously dropped exit portal on the right side next to the pack he aggro's?

still pagoda
#

yes

#

he joins

#

i specifically drop exit portal on the rooftop

#

so that it's easy for hunt to get back to group and later on drop down to stairway packs

marble cipher
#

and if it's a hunter, without camouflage, is there enough room to walk without aggroing any of the honorguard packs (left bottom, and volkaal stairs) for him?
Cause he needs to pull the pack onto the grass to feign there

amber siren
#

there's enough room to get around

marble cipher
#

k

still pagoda
#

technically there is

#

because you have a lot of space near the lake

marble cipher
#

Just making sure before I ask my hunter 😄

#

Or I just ask him to go camo 🤣

still pagoda
#

gonna just drop into AD and do a small rundown with markers

#

ask him to go camo

#

@marble cipher You just need to drop exit portal on carpets and let your hunter(or mage/rogue) do the job

#

there's a lot of room to kite this pack away

yeah, I usually drop it there, and the kite works wonders with a rogue.
No rogue this week, so I was just thinking how a hunter (without camo) could walk to the previous exit portal

#

But I guess camo is just much better to spec into for that

still pagoda
#

hunter can do the same

#

easily

trail dome
#

@marble cipher you can still get there with feign you just might have to wait on feign CDs

#

and yeah what karton said, there is a tonne of room by the lake

#

like loads of space

#

i think what my hunterino friend usually does is run past, feign once we're in

#

then run back into volkaal room and feign again

#

but that's cause we take spire straight to vol usually.

marble cipher
#

And he just doesn't join in on the mini boss then, but waits at volkaal till the rest is out?

still pagoda
#

depends on whether he takes camo or not

marble cipher
#

Yeah, with the double feign I mean

still pagoda
#

well

#

only if he will run to the previous exit portal

#

again, carpets

#

is prot viable on pvp arenas 2v2 ? with something like idk DH or hpal

it's irritating if you have no interest in raids. I've literally got no way to actually catch up 🤷‍♂️

It is frender

#

if you're 10 weeks behind you wont catch up for 10 weeks

#

marble cipher

@still pagoda last question about those trash pack skips, when the entry and exit portals are set as they are in your route, how does the hunter/rogue/mage get into the realm for the very last skip (middle pillar towards yazma)?
Cause there's no easy/fast spot where he can go into a previous exit portal, since the closest one is at volkaal (carpet) and he can't pull the middle mobs that way to feign death them since that would put the entire group in combat (as you're all standing there at that point, I think)

still pagoda
#

Technically

#

either camo

#

or he doesn't

marble cipher
#

k, what I thought

#

cause with camo he can pull middle away from us, we enter, he camo's and walks to carpet to go into realm, and will probably join on mini boss by the time we pulled it to yazma

still pagoda
#

same for mage

#

and rogue

#

even better if he joins through first obelisk

#

since he won't need another use of invis to get to it unlike with carpet

smoky wave
#

levelling a mage atm for some dps fun. Doing stuff like that is going to be interesting!

trail dome
#

wait what

#

can't you just go to the right side obelisk

still pagoda
#

^

#

or left side

#

that's what i'm proposing

marble cipher
#

true, he can run that way for pulling the middle pack away, it's not that close but there's no more mobs there

still pagoda
#

either of those 2

#

just feign/invis and go to first 2 obelisks

marble cipher
#

or if the run would take longer then 5 seconds, he can just pull the middle pack away, die, release at start of dungeon and then go for one of those pillars I guess

#

"he" being anyone then really, cause dying is something everyone can do 😄

trail dome
#

So, I'm used to being a healer

#

meaning i don't need to know any of this dumb shit

#

I was just doing WCM on my warrior and got absolutely ruined by some mobs with high soul fetish stacks

#

is there anything beyond belf racial I can really do to interact with that

#

or am I just relying on my dps to not be stupid.

marble cipher
#

interrupt the casts 😄

#

or purge/spellsteal if you have it available

trail dome
#

I did kick ;_;

amber siren
#

arcane torrent will only remove one stack if the cast goes off, so it's important to lock it down before it is applied

marble cipher
#

also, no need to kick soul fetish if the witch is the only mob left, as it won't be able to be cast on something (since he's alone)

trail dome
#

oh that's good to know

#

my group was kinda blasting so i just pulled like everything downstairs

#

it was a bit fiesta

#

ended up on matron

#

got hit by her thing for like my hp bar

#

you know how it goes

#

👀

marble cipher
#

since he's the only one left, who cares where the stacks would go when he dies 😉

#

but if still in a pack, yeah, interrupt it

#

I mean, technically I guess you can also just leave the witch till he's the last one alive, if it's a full pack with only one witch

#

Ending up on matron is a big yikes though haha

trail dome
#

still got the ez 2 chest

#

excited for junkyard 18 peepoHappy

#

junk 18 should be fine, if everyone gets bots asap

trail dome
#

my friends & I are hoping to get a bunch of 20s done over the weekend, considering 3 of us rerolled to more meta classes.

#

so JY18 should be an easy 20

marble cipher
#

should

trail dome

marble cipher
#

I usually think that when I start my keys, and then something goes horribly wrong 😄

still pagoda
#

my ToS17 should be an easy 19 again

trail dome
#

It's kinda funny though. We had someone rr to rogue, someone rr to mage and me rr to prot warr.

marble cipher
#

Did an 18 UR last night, should've been an ok +1 chest, but nooooo, people couldn't cope with last boss "stack 'n move" tactic, especially not with blob mini boss on him too

still pagoda
#

👀

trail dome
#

And we try do same pulls we did on mains and do really silly stuff.

#

Good learning experience tho

hasty quest
#

Sorry for delay but i am at work, anyhow: We go left and BL on double pack focusing Augur casts and Shadowmend.

Than run with slime and big pull in front of the boss. We go down and we clean the bridge, jumping down to rezan and come up on 2 saurid packs.

Than we go right, Lust on pull with guards, shield breaker etc, pull obelisk pack and than go to Volkan.

We exit with hunter or mage or Rogue and we go to the bridge, crear it and have hubnter or orgue distract the mid pack so we can go with the miniboss to yazma, we fight her with the spider and lust.

marble cipher
#

doing spider on boss is an option too, is the top left one the spider this week (the one with double honorguards)?

trail dome
#

i think i'm down for that tbh

Yes you want 1x surging vita

Do you want to keep at 0 stacks, or just maintain 1 stack?

you can safely take one stack

but two and three and you might just fall over unless god healer

spice lotus

ok, cool. Thanks again!

unkempt latch
#

If youve got no1 to soak it for you, you have to delay their other cast for like 3 sec I think, meaning you can stun them when they wanna jump out because after that comes the cast, and then you can safely take the new one because the last one falls off.

#

Or just dont go near them when you got one, let random other dps take it 😅

it's what he had on

he did say after tho that he wants to run TD in the 27, they missed the timer by about 30s-1m if they played properly
