maan i told fmage to save comb cuz ima go 3 pack

still pagoda
#

πŸ‘

steep bone
#

then he uses it on 3 mobs

still pagoda
#

xD

deep steppe
#

3 mobs = 3 pack, obvi

steep bone
#

and his weak aura is telling me that he's using 2 on use trinkets

still pagoda
steep bone
#

thats why im avoiding mages for low keys

distant crystal
#

just tell them you're here to help them acquire overall

#

no fonting until you tell them to

@flat jackal you should do that for me rn leggo

thoughts on expedient vs ineffible to fill?

distant crystal
#

i think 2x exped 1 is p juicy

still pagoda
#

IT1 will win over everything

#

but if you don't have 2xIT1, then you can run expedients to fill in

flat jackal
#

@distant crystal ???

distant crystal
#

i see you trying to find keys peepostudy

royal rune
#

can someone help me figure out where the dps difference is here:

#

my guildie died for about 15-20 secs

#

and still did more dps

#

but we're pretty similarly geared

distant crystal

ohoh sorry

anyone have the link for blockable boss damage for dungeons and what not?

#

spell reflectable

lusty grotto
#

@exotic spoke wru i need help

civic holly

ty

lusty grotto
#

hey

#

what are your experiences with mythic maut

#

some groups just straight up feed adds if dps is good yeah?

regal saddle
#

Yea

lusty grotto
#

no mana draining on pools and shit?

#

okay now for the real question

#

what the fuck is phase 3

#

these chinese or brazilian people keep saying phase 3

#

to quote 'fase 3'

kind spindle
#

At what key level do you have to start pulling more aggressively to time? I'm 1 away from keystone master and have timed two 16s. But my biggest weakness is being scared to pull too big. Pug'ing 90% of my runs didn't help with this though..

lusty grotto
#

i think they are BR

sacred nexus
#

do they mean 3rd phase 1 rotation?

lusty grotto
#

i have no clue

strong forum
#

@kind spindle 22s maybe.

lusty grotto
#

but i guess they expected to not feed adds on it?

strong forum
#

But before that you can just do safe pulls all the way

#

Tbh

#

And even then still +2 keys

lusty grotto
#

can you explain what you mean by 3rd phase 1 rotation?

strong forum
#

Maut only has 2 phases peepostudy

#

Regular and shield phase

lusty grotto
#

yeah i dont get it nome

sacred nexus
#

phase 1 has adds, phase 2 is shield, then back to phase 1 (2nd rotation), then shield (2nd rotation), then phase 1 (3rd rotation) etch

lusty grotto
#

ok so

#

you just wanna hold adds at that point ?

#

so he doesnt go into shield again?

sacred nexus
#

3rd rotation hold all ads

#

and just focus boss

strong forum
#

Typically he should be dead after first shield

sacred nexus
#

if you have good dps, you can do that after 1st shield

strong forum
#

2nd shield if you're slow

#

3rd shield is certain death

lusty grotto
#

ok so only if you hit that 3rd cycle

#

you wanna hold adds?

#

otherwise just feed right?

sacred nexus
#

yep, hold all adds on 3rd rotation, dont feed them in, just hold them all in a puddle for maximum uptime on boss

lusty grotto
#

or depending on hp?

kind spindle
#

@strong forum cool thanks

lusty grotto
#

well i put the adds on a pool and shit exploded

strong forum
#

Well that's annihilation cast prolly

#

That's his regular mechanic, or you didn't get dispelled

still pagoda
#

😳

lusty grotto
#

so these fuckers are basically blaming everything on me

#

yeah i jump on a pool and get it asap if raid is leveled out

sacred nexus
#

got logs of the wipe?

strong forum
#

It's easy to blame the tank on Maut

still pagoda
#

^

lusty grotto
#

nah it was just a pug shit, well i guess i could hav eone

radiant path
#

If you spell reflect a blockable attack... Does it reflect the full damage or only what wasn't mitigated?

strong forum
#

You can't reflect blockable attacks

#

Cuz they're not a magic spell

lusty grotto
#

for spells reflected its full damage

radiant path
#

Then why is that a yes on both?

lusty grotto
#

but yes nome is right

still pagoda
#

one of the few pulls from today

strong forum
#

if you however mean reflecting a spell it typically does reflect

still pagoda
#

I just want to kill this boss and go on to Cara and N'Zoth now

strong forum
#

Many mechanics however also only deflect

#

And do 0 dmg

radiant path
#

Oh yeah, I meant spell. Sorry haha

strong forum
#

That should be documented if it only deflects

#

And not reflects

exotic spoke
#

@lusty grotto what’s up qtpie. I’m cooking dinner

radiant path
#

Ohhhhh, it does say Deflect

lusty grotto
#

right for that one xanesh its a deflect

#

doesnt do damage

#

i think baldyl0cks helped me out riki

#

but lets see if i have logs

#

fucking healed maut easily on my alt pally

#

i feel like it was more of a lost in translation issue

sacred nexus
#

huehuehue

lusty grotto
#

these guys were from Area 52

#

like i dont understand lol

still pagoda
#

meanwhile i started topping logs on our server

#

this technically means that amount of prot warrs on Kazzak is really low

lusty grotto
#

alright

#

shit

#

why did it send me to classic wtf

#

whoops

sacred nexus
#

nyalotha hasn't been favorable for prot warriors.... my guild is currently progression on mythic with 2x prot warriors :S

still pagoda
#

we're progressing with BDK and prot warrior

#

me on prot warrior as a new trial technically

steep bone
#

So i did raden with pugs and i got vita

#

how big it is compared to rezan?

lusty grotto
#

bigger

#

better

#

stronger

still pagoda
#

it is BIG

lusty grotto
#

faster

#

POG

steep bone
#

marok \

lusty grotto
#

im guessing #2

lusty grotto
#

cause i taunted add thinking we would swap so i could reset stacks

#

karton, you on nzoth yet?

lusty grotto
#

i dont understand karton

still pagoda
#

no

#

Ilgy

steep bone
#

how it is as prot because on hc he's rapperino

still pagoda
#

going good

#

you just shouldn't slack at all

#

and it will go great

sacred nexus
#

@lusty grotto your 2nd and 3rd attempt, the blowup that killed the whole raid is 'The Master's Gaze', its the enrage timer because you went to 3rd shield phase. It just wipes the raid

lusty grotto
#

Ah

#

why were they saying not to put adds on pools WTF?

#

they made it sound like it fucking wiped the raid

steep bone
#

so they doesnt do anything but stand still

#

but your dps is quite poor id say

lusty grotto
#

well its a pug

#

or it was

steep bone
#

Oh

#

well if you got to third shield then they';re just bad

still pagoda
#

amount of damage DK takes from autos tho

lusty grotto
#

so none of this was my fucking fault

steep bone
#

maan i memberprogressin as fire mage, we had paladins saccing me

lusty grotto
#

they just sucked dick on dps

steep bone
#

and still wasnt enough to survive combu

#

how can you fuckup maut as tank tho

sacred nexus
#

they were wrong about the adds Nimchimp, if you make it to the 3rd phase1, keep all adds in the puddle so they don't get eaten by the boss (and push up his mana), and all DPS focus boss to kill before next shield

steep bone
#

besides feeding him adds if no need to

lusty grotto
#

i did ask them initially if we wanted to feed adds asap

#

they couldnt answer

still pagoda
lusty grotto
#

i should have just done the standard drain to 60% mana shit

meager night
#

Is there a sweet spot for how much haste we should have unbuffed before stacking crit for mythic +?

#

Unbuffed*

lusty grotto
#

crit?

#

is this 8.2?

meager night
#

Lol I was looking at icy veins and that’s what it says

lusty grotto
#

there is no such thing as too much haste

meager night
#

So just stack the shit out of haste as number 1 priority at all times,

#

?

lusty grotto
#

sure until you hit 23s

meager night
#

Ok

lusty grotto
#

then you go haste versa

distant crystal
#

p much, try not to sac armor/total stats too much

lusty grotto
#

23+ only

meager night
#

Got it

#

And is stacking twilight dev + 1-2 ineffabble truth the way to go for mythics up to 20?

lusty grotto
#

ya

meager night
#

Cool, ty

lusty grotto
#

by 20s you should know where to not fuck up, everything should be manageable without versatile

#

any extra versa as a stat is good though

meager night
#

I don’t really do more than 15’s, maybe 16 to 17

lusty grotto
#

just not a big prio until you can swap to versatiles

#

ya IF TD is fine

meager night
#

Sweet, thanks

lusty grotto
#

obviously crit is good as well, not saying it's not

#

😎

ocean kernel
#

slightly confused as well. Why does icyveins say to stack haste/crit when all the top guys are doing haste/vers

rigid sinew
#

because at high enough levels u are prone to one shots and such even with perfect play

#

so vers removes/reduces that chance

#

β€œchance”

ocean kernel
#

is there a resource on how to build a prot warrior for the higher levels of play

rigid sinew
#

whats ur idea of higher levels

ocean kernel
#

I see some guys running conflict and strife and others warden

rigid sinew
#

theres links in the pins for most things, prob best to check those all out

lusty grotto
#

icy veins isnt really written with super high keys in mind

#

its for the average tank

#

crit is good because more deeps and parry

ocean kernel
#

I get it

#

how much dps would I lose out on building haste/vers compared to haste/crit

lusty grotto
#

you would have to sim

ocean kernel
#

is it a bad idea to just go towards haste/vers instead of haste/crit

lusty grotto
#

there's no way to give you a straight answer cause youre not including corruptions etc

#

not at all

#

you can go either pretty much, or both

ocean kernel
#

I feel like that's the safer move

#

I feel like haste/verse might just be better cause then you could really do some giant pulls

lusty grotto
#

not quite

#

just gearing haste vers doesnt do much

#

you need a lot of versatile IIIs

ocean kernel
#

yeah I've seen that on all the top guys

lusty grotto
#

the reason its so good now its because of the corruption

rigid sinew
#

in short

ocean kernel
#

haste corruptions galore

lusty grotto
#

and by that you will have to replace TD

#

negative

rigid sinew
#

dont think about stacking vers until around +24 keys

lusty grotto
#

^

#

dont think about stacking vers until around +23 or 24 keys and if you don't have a shitton of versatile corruptions

ocean kernel
#

thanks for the info

lusty grotto
#

expedient isnt really stacked either

#

those are arms warriors

#

use IT and TD until you hit those keys

#

and have acquired a lot of versatile corruptions

#

you can aim for 2x IT1 1x TD3 1x Expedient3

#

until 23s or 24s

ocean kernel
#

tbh I'm kinda far out

rigid sinew
#

to put it in perspective

ocean kernel
#

I'm just making the transition to BFA

#

but I have some friends that are carrying

lusty grotto
#

its deffo a complicated system

#

but as a rule of thumb, just gearing haste versa wont do much

ocean kernel
#

I tanked a 15 with 444 iLvl lol

#

so just focused in ilvl for now

#

but want to know go down the right path

lusty grotto
#

right

#

as you should be

#

dont bother looking ahead if youre not gonna get there though

#

23s and 24s are a long ways off

#

a lot of echoes

ocean kernel
#

yeah

lusty grotto
#

and a lot of haste/versa farming

#

im not saying you cant do it

#

anyone can

#

but its a long ways off

#

baby steps and 1 step at a time πŸ˜‰

still pagoda
#

And is stacking twilight dev + 1-2 ineffabble truth the way to go for mythics up to 20?
@meager night

even up to 23-24

#

depends on whether you're comfortable or not

ocean kernel
#

I'll look into td then

#

my account is linked with my brothers so he might have it already

cunning kraken
#

475 bandages vs 470 nzoth trinket for m+?

distant crystal
#

delete bandages

cunning kraken
#

how come

distant crystal
#

cause nzoth trinket > all for defensive trinks

lusty grotto
#

bandages was bad even before nzoth trinket came out lmao

#

not nearly as bad as literalgarbage but pretty close

cunning kraken
#

how though? looking at the math is seems stronger

lusty grotto
#

what math

#

lets see it

rigid sinew
#

isnt that trinket

#

a huge absorb

distant crystal
#

note the cooldown on n'zoth trinket

rigid sinew
#

but a 2 min cd

distant crystal
#

that might be where you're getting mixed up

cunning kraken
#

nzoth is 60 seconds

#

bandages is 90

#

and bandages absorb is exactly 50% more

#

so hps wise theyre the same

tame garden
#

short cd is what makes lps so nice

distant crystal
#

except when fighting an obelisk or the last boss in M+

#

where it's considered nyalotha and you get a bigger shield

cunning kraken
#

oh really, wasnt aware of that

#

so the last boss is considered nyalotha even with zero obelisks?

distant crystal
#

ye

cunning kraken
#

sweet ty for info

distant crystal
#

and in general the shorter cd makes it much better even with equal budget

ocean kernel
#

1 last thing since I'm skeptical of icy veins.

#

What should I be focusing on for essences

lusty grotto
#

icy veins should be correct on essences

ocean kernel
#

kk

#

is conflict and strife used for all affixes or only certain weeks where kiting is more important

lusty grotto
#

if you have questions about icy veins

#

@ionic fern is the writer

#

hes a mod here

#

he also wrote the APL for simcraft

ocean kernel
#

it's very well written

lusty grotto
#

he knows a shitton, so yes Icy veins is legit

ocean kernel
#

just wondering since it doesn't really match up with the top rated io guys

#

but I understand they're playing a differen't game

lusty grotto
#

right

#

even the top io players swap to TD builds for sub 23s

ocean kernel
#

so for arms/fury are people using totally different sets with diff corruptions

distant crystal
#

ye

#

fury is severe arms is exped

#

but td is okay for all 3

#

so there's that

ocean kernel
#

so without corruptions were people using the same gear?

distant crystal
#

they always had different stat prios

ocean kernel
#

i see

#

that's not as big of a deal

#

prob is the corruptions cause it seems to take some effort to get them

#

just gear farming for the different stats at that point if you take out the corruptions

scarlet copper
#

what do you guys think of killing Skorn in shrine this week?

solemn venture
#

I don’t think he’s worth it imho. Not a dead run if u do pull him

@bold plover Maybe not...

bold plover

Nah I fixed it

#

but uh

#

lets go boys

#

still pagoda
#

since i can wear full stack now

#

no ilgy kill today

swift sail
#

Do you guys ever change to arms or fury for any reason or just stay in prot the whole time? As I’m gearing up my tank, should i be aiming for TD corruptions?

lusty grotto
#

ya

#

at least 1 td3 is good

bold plover
#

does leech work with TD?

😳

vapid sage
#

question

#

dwarfs and stoneform off bleeds and stuff like necrotic which makes them handy for tanks

#

does the Dark Iron version work similarly?

lusty grotto
#

yes

vapid sage
#

so its literally just normal stoneform, + some strength

unreal parrot
#

Yeah

lusty grotto
#

correct

unreal parrot
#

regular stoneform heals you tho, I think?/

#

I don't remember but it's not a strict upgrade, they're slightly different but equivalent

vapid sage
#

ahh ok

lusty grotto
#

stoneform makes you tankier kind of

vapid sage
#

i know Stoneform used to buff armor i think

lusty grotto
#

doesnt heal you

vapid sage
#

but idr if it still does

lusty grotto
#

it used to give armor but

#

the current iteration just does damage reduction by 10%

sweet hearth
#

stoneform reduces all damage taken by 10% for 8 sec apparently

vapid sage
#

ahh

#

ahh

#

so it seems base Dwarf is slightly mroe defensive and DI is more offensive

#

granted its slim enough not to matter

#

but i was just wondering how it worked

sweet hearth
#

Vulpera or bust

vapid sage
#

lol

#

im alliance so cant

#

wait how tf does this work

warm plinth
#

They have a spell called Make Camp which works basically anywhere outdoors

sweet hearth
#

yeah anywhere

vapid sage
#

thats crazy

warm plinth
#

And then they have a separate spell called Return to Camp

#

With 1 hour CD that returns you where you last made camp

#

I think it's 1 hour anyway. Going off memory

sweet hearth
#

can use it to camp at dungeon entrance so a super quick spec swap in m+

#

not that i ever have or ever will do that

vapid sage
#

hows the other one work

#

Hurl a trick at a friend or foe to help or harm them

sweet hearth
#

small heal or small ranged single target damage, it's negligible, but i love it now im trying out prot for pulling, it's 40 yard range

vapid sage
#

ahh nicee

sweet hearth
#

the heal can be enough to save people sometimes

#

it does cost a gcd though

#

biggest benefit of vulpera? you're cute af

vapid sage
#

does the DI dwarf mole machine have set places to go?

#

lmao

sweet hearth
#

never used it so can't help with that sorry

vapid sage
#

also ima be real with you guys

#

im lowkey bitter we didnt get the sneks

#

the sneks are so cool

Yeah mole machine is fixed locations

vapid sage

oh i just looked it up

you gotta run around and discover them

@vapid sage in all honesty? It can be used in a multiple of ways

#

In raids, M+ and PvP

#

If not using for chain CC you can just use it as a movement ability to get out of a mechanic or get somewhere fast to catch a mechanic or soak for instance

#

I kinda like it, perrsonally not a fan of the belf racial since its rework iirc.

#

The more i see some random people saying "you should stack vers" in my DMs or in disc, the more i just want to start blacklisting everyone i don't know pepsihands

sick sentinel
#

πŸ€”

#

why are they asking you

still pagoda
#

Because i run 6% of it in mythic nya

sick sentinel
#

I still don't get why people are asking you pepsihands

still pagoda
#

Like

#

Vers is irrelevant in the content i do at the moment

#

Which is +20-21 keys and mythic prog

#

And some random BrM on PoS rolls into a discussion of small off-topic thing of tank spec gearing with words " you're fucking your raid by not stacking vers since you can't deal with incoming damage and mechanics at the same time"

#

Honestly, i'll make a huge post once i get my CE

sick sentinel
#

Why would you ever do that

#

People did Mythic N'zoth in world pushes with 10x worse gear

#

and no vers

#

;thi

still pagoda
#

Exactly

sick sentinel
#

πŸ€”

still pagoda
#

And I don't struggle with any damage as a prot

#

Since damage in mythic is a joke

#

Especially phys against 2 layers of block and armor respectively

#

Really, i think i'll make a big post regarding vers question in current raiding tier once i get CE

#

Since just constantly seeing people not understanding what it takes to stack amount of it that will actually matter in raids(and it still won't) is immense

junior pebble
#

Is it worth running conflict major for like 18/19s

sick sentinel
#

if you are already stacking vers % sure

#

otherwise theres no point

#

just play lucid

still pagoda
#

Or VoP

#

18/19 is that one smallish bracket where there's a thin line between them

#

Since you don't really need full control of lucid(though it becomes nuts on big pulls starting from these keys), but don't want much RNG like with VoP either

#

So it comes down to personal preference and learning curve

sick sentinel
#

I think lucid better no matter what

#

people who struggle with 15/16 and etc

#

lucid will help

#

just like lucid helps with 24s/25s

#

same difference

#

any recommendation for a good plater profile? if I look on wago there's "Plater Profile for M+ Users 0501" which has the most stars, anyone tried that?

steep bone
#

depends what do you mean by good plater profile

#

it's kinda to each of his own

scarlet copper
#

just something good for M+. I find that the Elvui is super spazzy. The nameplates float all over the place during a pack

steep bone
#

elvui is bad

#

ill show you mine sec

undone sun
#

elvui can be quite good, it's just depending on how you use it

scarlet copper
#

also I feel like I never see victory rush in streamers' UI. how do they know when to useit?

undone sun
#

it's not really an essential ability, getting a killing blow for free procs isn't common

steep bone
#

if you want i can give you my string

#

and for victory rush, well you can just track buff with weak aura like i do

scarlet copper
#

gotcha, and actually this looks pretty similar to the plater profile I just found. I'll try it and see how I like it

thank you!!

Hello Springfield

hello @bitter cape

bitter cape
#

I was going to ask a question but then I found the answer in the pins ya'll so nice and neat in this disc

steep bone
#

idd, check dh discord for change, full of cancer

icy harness
#

suits the class

bitter cape
#

Druid discords pretty okay but definitely not as clean as these google docs lol

lime mantle
#

Misery is part of VDH so 🀷

steep bone
#

back in legion days i remember wlock discord as cool one

#

well i keep forgetting what ess to play in visions, remind me please weird

sick sentinel
#

Lock discord is probably the best discord

icy harness
#

oh yeah kyothi

#

i wanted to ask you

#

what's the inspect addon that you have

sick sentinel
#

inspect?

#

Elvui shadows

icy harness
#

when you inspect yourself

#

D:

#

elvui

steep bone
#

Oh finally i can buy malefic core with echoes

#

poggers

sick sentinel
#

what keys should a 460 prot be able to do?

#

think my stats are pretty bad rn but i hav around 20% haste and 30% crit

#

and the hotifx went through?

warm plinth
#

Yeah hotfix went through

sick sentinel
#

should i be able to do around +15 or will i take too much dmg

warm plinth
#

How's your shield

steep bone
#

how do you even fight valera

warm plinth
#

So

#

Alleria tips

steep bone
#

literally no way to dps her ever

warm plinth
#

First, darkened sky does not leave anything on the ground

steep bone
#

and if so shes standing in gunk

warm plinth
#

So you literally just move, then move back

#

It's easy to think you have to run away and relocate when that happens, but you don't

steep bone
#

im concerned more about the eye

#

no way to position myself to not get constantly drained

warm plinth
#

The eye you just have to play with. You can cheese it most of the time by standing perpendicular to her

steep bone
#

what about all that fire in the middle tho

warm plinth
#

You need to kick the bombs away when you're in the middle

#

But avoid them if you're on the side

steep bone
#

i was pretty fine until i got to the point where i just spell reflected something other than poly and got polied in the middle of shit so i ended up with 65 sanity

main vault
#

Kick them to the outside edges

steep bone
#

wait you can kick bombs?

#

.<

main vault
#

...

steep bone
#

i mean first time doing 5mask on sw

#

i like orgri alot more lul

main vault
#

You know the first boss in the left

steep bone
#

dwarven ye

main vault
#

That she gets the bombs from?

warm plinth
#

Yeah lul

#

Tbh I didn't know for a long time

main vault
#

They have been kickable since then

warm plinth
#

But yeah she kicks them away from her as kind of a hint

#

When you start the dwarven boss

#

But I never noticed it because I always just hit the plunger and ran in

steep bone
#

well dwarf guy is dying within seconds usually so im not bothered by boms

main vault
#

But yeah easiest way it to kick them to the edge, and stack them if you can

warm plinth
#

But yeah kick the bombs if they're in the center and leave them if they're on the outside edges so that you don't have fire all over the middle

steep bone
#

but that bitch refuses to reposition

main vault
#

You can los her to reposition

warm plinth
#

You don't need to reposition her if you don't have fire in the middle

steep bone
#

good point

#

wait, i didn't notice does she redrop bombs or its just one time thing?

warm plinth
#

She does it every so often

main vault
#

She does it every bit

steep bone
#

yeah ill just wait until orgri is back

main vault
#

Not too often

warm plinth
#

Like every 30 seconds or something if I were to guess, maybe longer

steep bone
#

its too tilting

main vault
#

She basically drops bombs once per void cycle

warm plinth
#

But yeah if you do have to LoS, just assume she's going to do Darkened Sky and Polymorph

main vault
#

Ish

warm plinth
#

Have SR ready for those polys, and move from DS only enough to not be in the swirls

#

And she should move to you

steep bone
#

thing is that sr reflected something else than poly

#

i think i had eye >.<

#

anything that i can ignore?

warm plinth
#

AFAIK the only thing you can reflect on that fight besides poly is maybe corruptions

main vault
#

You can just interrupt poly too

#

Nothing else to interrupt

warm plinth
#

Well yeah I just meant if he's trying to reposition her

#

It's better to stay LoS and just reflect

main vault
#

Yeah just saying if it β€œfailed”

steep bone
#

i got tricked by poly because i tried to los it once

warm plinth
#

Right

steep bone
#

and yeah

#

goodbye sanity]

warm plinth
#

Yeah it's kinda dumb you can't LoS it, but you can't LoS Umbric's either so

#

Poly shouldn't be a big concern for your sanity though

#

Worst case you get like 18 sanity loss from burned bridge and maybe a hit from her eye if you're unlucky

steep bone
#

unless you have eye draining you for that polied time

warm plinth
#

Yeah but you change facing the entire time so it's unlikely you'd just be facing the eye the entire time

steep bone
#

so all that you're saying makes me wait for orgri and do it easy peasy tbh

warm plinth
#

The easiest way to fail Stormwind is to rush

#

Alleria is a fight that requires patience

steep bone
#

only thing i rushed was dwarven district tbh

warm plinth
#

Every bit of sanity damage on that fight is avoidable. Just take your time, pick your moments, and whittle her down

steep bone
#

sucks tho as i procedd cheat death in mage's district

warm plinth
#

Make sure any gift procs you get, you stand and beat her up for 20 seconds

main vault
#

Yeah you actually have forever to kill her

steep bone
#

as i got debuffed few times and i died lul

warm plinth
#

Nothing does enough damage to hurt you

main vault
#

Lemme guess

warm plinth
#

Just use it to blast

main vault
#

You pulled the Bounded with other mobs

warm plinth
#

I hate that miniboss but honestly have not had much issue with it on my warrior

steep bone
#

na i was greedy and pulled some mobs on top of portal master

warm plinth
#

Nice with everything having less HP

steep bone
#

procced gift right after that elite died

warm plinth
#

Oh. I always plan to go into that fight with gift tbh

#

Makes him easy

steep bone
#

but my luck is to proc TD while im charging something or proccing it on one 200k hp mob and then never proccing again

#

naa itake him with portal on the left

#

so any sanity i lose im getting back to full after hes ded

#

but those void buffets or whatever that stacks 100-200-300% dmg taken from shadow or whatever that was is nasty

#

anyway wish me luck

warm plinth
#

Yeah why would you pull him with an elemental; that's suicide

lusty grotto
#

help

#

someone is copying nimchip's xmog

steep bone
#

imagine proccing gift while you're doding your fear thingys and you run into one because you got speed buffed. yep im not doing 5mask in sw literally wasting time

icy harness
#

bruh

lusty grotto
#

identify yourself

#

i know youre in here

radiant path
#

So... I have a question. When I watch Naowh, he sometimes end a trash pack with his hps around 70k. Does his details also take into account his blocked damage? Because I’m looking at how ignore pains, and his hps go up even when he doesn’t have an ignore pain up

#

My hps details meter doesn’t show blocked damage.

lusty grotto
#

it doesnt

#

its pure leech

#

i hate the word but that's what he does

radiant path
#

Oh really??

lusty grotto
#

leech is kind of a meme here but he uses it

radiant path
#

Holy shit. It’s insane how much he heals for.

lusty grotto
#

well its not just leech

#

he has other things

radiant path
#

I know that some is over healing

lusty grotto
#

like azerite traits etc

radiant path
#

But wow

lusty grotto
#

victory rush and so forth

#

he should have logs

#

you can see there

radiant path
#

I’ll have to go look at that for sure. Thanks!

lusty grotto
#

here you go

#

its IP for the most part

#

that's one from april 1st

#

its an old one and hes not currently using any of that anymore but that should give you an idea

#

again like we've said a thousand times here, none of what he does applies to people here for the most part, and if it does its to a very small number of people

Sometimes you have to backpedal since you can't turn your back to enemies since you can't block then.

maaan same, but then i felt kinda safe with 59

or 57 was that

#

just blame healer if something, always works

ionic fern

Just test it in a lower key.

obtuse yoke
#

i got hit by a thing from beyond when i had spirit breaker debuff on me

steep bone
#

happens

ionic fern
#

I'm also running 39 currently because:
1)I don't have solid corruptions to run more
2)If i did have solid corruptions to run more i would be too lazy to deal with TFB .

icy harness
#

thing is that, for prot

steep bone
#

wait, whats current corrupt resistance?

icy harness
#

i dont think its worth at all

#

102

no corruption is worth going from 39 to 59

steep bone

oh im not that far then

icy harness
#

at least for prot

obtuse yoke
#

not even a TD?

icy harness

td is 25

Minus the pack at the entrance to the council boss

Shouldn't need it

icy harness

yeah

#

the optimal is 100.00%

#

with the pack in front of the pillars, entrance to bridge

chilly brook

Pull the construct at the start that you skipped

icy harness
#

NEGATIVE

lusty grotto
#

this route is

chilly brook

At the very start hes only pulling 3 not 4

icy harness

yeah

#

you're supposed to pull 3

chilly brook

Pull 4

let me make you one

@steep bone no drop the 5 pack before the council

Pick up the 2 berserker

because pugs

lusty grotto

like KR routes are pretty standard at this point

sick sentinel
#

you don't do mid until you kill third boss

icy harness
#

Let me show you my route

#

Hol up

chilly brook
#

Patrol should be fine

sick sentinel
#

and you drag it to zul bridge

#

so patrol doesn't do shit

steep bone
#

wait wait

chilly brook
#

Just use dratnos' route tbh

sick sentinel
#

gross

chilly brook
#

It's basically the same

#

But with the right packs

#

And everyone's KR is pretty much the same

icy harness
#

now this

#

is epic

sick sentinel
#

uh

lusty grotto
#

imagine dragging to bridge and then getting knocked by the arrow dude

sick sentinel
#

mine is 100% also

hasnt happened to us ever

why would you do 4 constructs

sick sentinel

and you don't get knocked off the edge

lusty grotto

because theyre easy

#

i dont get knocked off either πŸ˜”

lusty grotto

and good %

sick sentinel
#

bridge has a invis wall

#

that you bounce off

lusty grotto

negative

#

we def had someone get knocked

chilly brook
#

@icy harness why are you doing the bridge construct and not the construct that you're skipping at the start?

lusty grotto
#

i was being sarcastic

icy harness
#

because of wipe-safety

#

if we end up wiping

#

we can use the birb

chilly brook
#

The ones at the start are so easy

icy harness
#

obviously

sick sentinel
#

you can't get knocked off from the zul bridge

icy harness
sick sentinel
#

and why not pull all

#

when you're doing 3 already

#

it's free %

lusty grotto
#

alright ill get you a VoD

and you skip entire pack beccause of it
