Yeah, I haven't raided on monk or bear
monk is resident sleeper in raids
Just m+
I think i will get bullied into playing monk on nzoth prog
It is in no way a sleeper. Unless by sleeper you mean literally fall asleep playing

It is in no way a sleeper. Unless by sleeper you mean literally fall asleep playing
@mellow patio
Exactly
I had an easier time on nzoth as prot than our brew had. And he is a good brewmaster
Relying on class for a strat
💩
Don’t let them bully you if you don’t want to. Prot is strong on nzoth despite what people think
Yeah, well, we are starting cara only tomorrow, so i think it will be a long time till we get to nzoth
Don’t let them bully you if you don’t want to. Prot is strong on nzoth despite what people think
I showed that prot is strong as fuck in raids by taking 4 stacks on ilgy once
Without dying
Take 6 then @ me breh
or some
@still pagoda so.. no?
I took 5 once because I was inting
Psychophage control is ez as prot
1: only demo shout
2: demo + SR
3: demo + LPS +another SR if you're lucky on IT proc
4: ALL FUCKING CDs
But it was a coincidence that i toom that much
I took 5 once, but it took a village to get through the 5th stack
Yeah
I’m still sad my last guild didn’t let me take triple Grong smash’s 😦
i did that on my BrM and just had my offtank get yeeted
so i could pad
that was our prog strat (:
(my previous co-tank did like... 0 dps even on pink prot)
Vers stack brother. Need to make sure I don't die. 
I'm a tank. Don't need to do damage. Just survivie. Full defensive always. 
TD go brrrrrrrrrrrr
NO. No. Full. Defensive. Lol

Don’t let them bully you if you don’t want to. Prot is strong on nzoth despite what people think
@mellow patio
This; what're they gunna do? Find someone else?
what is the corruption resistance essence for M+?
how do u guys deal with tank buster ob?
feels like i get trucked by a 19-20 key tank buster
Just block 4head
Like unironically make sure you're blocking after the debuff goes out
Or have a hunter that's not a pleb and runs the weak aura so their pet takes the debuff
Demo shout one, lingering shell the other. You can leap to outrange during the cast. Rotate the cds and have block up during the debuff.
Ignore pain will consume half the damage of the cast as well so good to have that up
If you don't have linger I guess you just shield wall it but that's kind of wasteful I guess
Very much recommend getting a hunter buddy who can just make his pet take every single one outside of the first
If it's not dead by 4 casts you're in trouble anyway lol
You'll have demo up again for the fourth though
Probably the third
laughs in two hunters in my key group
@strong forum do you cast Fiery Brand on CD on your DH btw in keys?
Cuz you a dps boi
is the mecha shield any good?
hang on
bah, i don't have the picture any more, but i had one where i did a run with it, and it did like 255 dps
Anyone know the name of the hunter weak aura?
For the tank buster obelisk?
My buddy needs it and I'm on my phone at work LOL
Well... I've decided that prot warrior sucks ass in 5 masks haha. I was able to do it... but damn. I had a few really close calls
I lost a lot of sanity from hits though... Once I clear that up, it wont be as bad. I have to rely on TD procs for damage and that blows
i just go fury in visions
My arms damage is shit haha. But yeah, I think that might have to be the play
I only ahev one 460 weapon haha. The other is 400
well im only slightly better off than you
i got this crap weapon and some 445 quest thing
how much did gushing cost
my b, ty
guys I was running a motherlode +18 with my warrior, was using Conflict and strife as main, VoP, Aegis, SoW as minors but the third boss was very painful to overcome even with the LPS 470
should I use never surrender instead of bolster and add use the nullification dynamo as main for that dungeon on tyrannica?
I know a +18 is not that high but I'll like to get a better understanding on how to deal with it for higher keys
I mean for higher ML
tell your healer to pump more
you can reflect every other chemical burn
Can get every one with a little IT luck🙂
definitely don't need to use null as a major, some people do hearth out to swap to NS but it's not necessary. Just be sure you're reflecting every second chemical burn, don't use SB defensively and just use IP, rotate defensives and communicate with your healer
understood thanks appreciate it
what are the best non raid defensive tanking trinkets
hmm im trying to make a tank set but been dps the whole xpac so far i have 475 vita and dragon scale would Rezans and block be better for tanking?
only have 465 versions of those
no Vita and scale are much better
yeah i was thinking that just dont have any other good options for tank trinkets
Haste is a very tanky stat
those are 2 of the best tanking trinkets in the game
More haste is better for us
^
I run double haste trinkets almost exclusively
Until I get sweaty and do a hard key then I swap scale for psychic shell
what essence set up to you run most weeks for a very defensive / tanky set up
Lucid Major, VoP, CnS, Sphere/Str
swap VoP and lucid if yo'ure not comfortable making bigger pulls around cds to make the most of it
what do you swap it with
each other
oh
Is 450 corrupted medallion and 450 he’s howler a good random for tanking
not great
strenght of the warden
Both or haste trinket with one or the other
to use if you need the corruption resistance
id use neither depending on what your other choices are
Trinket from mecha and scale
both are much better
There 430!
both are much better
gaining 20 ilvls to take such solidly meh trinkets
is not the play
wait
trinket from mechagon you mean the punchcard one right?
not platinum plating
cause platinum plating is the worst trinket in the game
Yes give me haste and vers
Oh god I thought you told him to use the plating
why i had to clarify lol
With the punch card I have 29% crit , 34% haste , 41 % mast,
for super high keys like 25+ people are just wearing all versa haste gear and all versa corruption?
seen a lot of warriors with that anyways
maybe i should build that way cus i am getting stomped even at key lvl 16 LOL just ran waycrest took so much damage
you likely are misplaying
if you're being stomped at 16's
and while versa can be more lenient of a stat for mistakes
it isn't gonna save you from egregious misplays
i just feel like i never can have good uptime on ignore pain and shield block
More shield block at appropriate times, more last stands and shield walls before large damage abilities go off
if you try to balance "uptime" on both of them
you're already off to a bad start
and versa won't help with SB uptime
haste will
when do you use ignore pain i know you want SB up as much as possible
Don't stand in shit, kill shit fast, don't die, don't allow others to die deaths you can prevent
what's considered excess rage so i dont make the mistake of pressing ignore pain and be rage starved for other stuff
if using IP isn't going to delay SB
so knowing you have enough rage to use your next SB or will gen enough before next time you press BS
SB*
Delay sb
if you have to wait 1 or more GCDs to cast it because you don't have the rage to use it
Oh, got you now
But, yes, always cast sb before ip and reapply ip as needed
Even more so sb first when it's either a boss or melee trash
do you ever try to stack IP
it doesn't fully stack
no, only stacks 1.3
its capped at 1.3x
but. wasting IP by stacking it
is better than wasting rage by overcapping
I'm afraid of getting
in chest
Also you gotta remember as warrior you can reduce incoming melee by an absolutely absurd amount via just sb and armor
Like it just tickles if you do it right even in 15s
Take less damage as tank, healer can focus on dps making mistakes keep them alive better and key will go better
If you overcap on rage... cast revenge? Or just sit on rage to dump to SB or IP
Ill generaly just cast ip if im gona cap so i dont waste anger management
But im not a good tank dont take my words for gold
You avoid overcapping rage. Typically Ignore Pain will be a better use (and helps that it's off GCD). You can use Revenge if it's free via a proc, or if you know you aren't going to need that rage for IP or Shield Block.
Gotcha, yeah there are moments where I overcap and I’m sitting there like .... what to cast, and I refresh IP when I don’t need to or use revenge and then I get deleted by something 5 seconds later with no rage hehe
Sometimes I panic and cast SB when last stand is up. That grinds my gears big time.
or if you know you aren't going to need that rage for IP or Shield Block.
which is honestly rare
the damage revenge brings is usually not as efficient as the shield from IP
You don't want to worry about whether or not you need to cast IP really. It's far more important to avoid the overcap than worry about overcapping your IP shield
Yeah the dot from revenge is forever , almost never need to re apply
Well and in AoE you're going to get enough free Revenges that you'll keep DW up anyway
Ooh, is everyone here switching to all verse amp too? For corruption?
Nope.
I’m in the middle right now, 4 9% verse, 1 ineffable truth, and a T2 twillight dev for me
TD is definitely fun, you take more damage, more thrill
but vers is way more stable and forgiving
Doesn't matter for like 99% of the population for the key levels they are doing.
I think even with rank 2 TD I still can kind of pop off
Running 28% base verse is good for defense to go with it
But with that set up I’m at 12 corruption lmfao
So I just need more verse
I was actually thinking of running the kragwa passive too, for zandalari trolls
More health and armor... and it’s buffed by verse
Vers isn't a catch-all solution, you'll take less damage playing better than using vers amps
Health/armor proc 🤢
HMT for that extra Vers. 

Im still rocking my 5 %leech

Alliance kinda poop
Im going to be a guildless boi forever
Few top ravencrest guilds moved horde not so long time ago
Raiding in 2020, smh.
DWARVES.
LIGHTFORGED DRAENEI
fuck your dwarves
Yeah im looking for guilds on ravencrest idk
I shouldve looked earlier cuz most guilds quit or are bad so cant do shit
Dont join eversio. I need raidspots there
Yeah like i can join them lul im a scrub with minimal experience not many guilds with more than 6/12 will take me
Unlucky
i went to alliance to raid with irl friends and like a month later the guild split up lmao
Oof
ye going back to horde for SL
@civic rover that's 1# mistake many players do
lol
465 helm of abyssal malevolence vs 480 riot helmet
@ionic fern not raiding in 2020 smh
@pastel sleet almost universally go with ilvl over traits
okey
Unless the traits are CR or BS
In which case find the nearest wall and run into it
@chilly brook hawgbear is ready to roll we running this week?
Idk chief dont really have a scuffed toon I'd enjoy
And I would also take BS or CR on a 480 piece over a 465
Especially if said 480 was joined with a BoM trait
Doesn’t have to be scuffed
I've got a 19 WCM on my DH
Dunno what I have on my monk or warrior
Actually got to take my DH for like half the reclear tonight and I was having a blast
90k dps on hivemind as a tank

Guys, i found new way to deal with TFB, just proc TD on it
Yeah I've deleted mine a few times that way on my DH lol
Or it spawns while I'm irising and it just falls over
I assume servant splitter is so bad it isn't even worth considering, even as a 15ilvl jump?
Or did the ability get buffed?
so my weekly chest gave me razdunks big red button trinket, is this worth anything?
Weapons are highest ilevel, period
so my weekly chest gave me razdunks big red button trinket, is this worth anything?

The damage proc is good on ST; just falls off on AoE. But weapon DPS is the important part.
@lime mantle yes even without stats
Servant splitter pumps
And weapon DPS is a super important stat tbh
o-okay
I should still aim to get wrathion's weapon on Mythic (for the ilvl I don't care for the corruption) right-o?
||I-i can only pug the first 3 bosses ;_;||
Yes, it's easy enough to get at 475 ilvl so it's 👌
ST = Servant, AOE= Wraithion Wep
I mean it more as a "I don't have the will/time/skill to get into a guild"
as a tank its pretty hard
also I assume 5ilvl isn't worth gambling for ifI have an iron fortress+bom shoulders
I can play DPS I am just very much and comically unskilled at it
I am confused if the mob doesn't follow me
why mob don't follow
ST = Servant, AOE= Wraithion Wep
AOE - any stat weapon you want*
searing flames is meh
worse TD1
with even worse corruption budget
I assumed he meant "stat weapon"
Yes, he was talking about wraithion specifically though
I was talking about wrathion because it's an easy to get 475weap
tradewinds or callous reprisal
how good is clockwork heart?
tradewinds or callous reprisal
Tradewinds
But at equal ilvl, stats for AOE, Servant for ST (like raid)
Tradewinds
Clockwork is decent
esp if u have a mage in grp
lolz
aye I have callous as alternative... dont really fancy it
tradewinds goes to nearest party member
Clockwork 100% then
Also my last question is:
I have HC carapace pads (IF+BoM) do I gamble a 475 azerite or not worth it?
Any F in the chat boys?
Iron fortress is meh
ill never get shield
that's...a trinket?
your DR will improve significantly with higher ilvl shield
I would assume block rating alone would be worth
^
Been trying for 2 months to get Ilgy shield, hasn’t dropped yet 😦
Wish me luck boys
Buy boe
ez bom/metic
something useful from vendor, poggies
@distant crystal t-thanks
800k not worth when I can kill Ilgy every week and Ilgy more vers
I literally dusted the 460 version of this item too
rip
sc
something useful from vendor, poggies
@steep bone scheming or brace for impact?
Is there a haste soft cap (like it used to be back in the day) beyond which it gets devalued?
those shoulders are bonkers for fury tho
I assume 5 ilvl isn't worth dropping (my only) BoM?
cant find any info regarding it
I dont get it why shields are so expensive
Good thing I do love furry, I press many button haha
@sonic saddle no
Other boes cost nothing now
@novel ruin ty
yeah .75sec
^
guys guys, Meticulous Scheming or Brace for impact?
Brace for ST
Yes
brace is purely ST. Scheming is good defensively for M+
but only if u do it right
😛
explain
3 different spells means you wont be able to effective use the proc during avatar
Haste
Hm
so you need some thunderclap weaving
Doesn’t Avatar count as a spell?
But it gives a ton of haste which is amazing for defense
Shield block?
So actually pretty easy to game
and even battle shouts
so I used to weave battle shouts in coz they are off gcd
rofl
Since ignore pain and shield block off GCD
well thats quite easy to proc
well if htey are up
aye... like I said.. just need to do it right
but definitely go for it if u can
I wouldn’t worry too much about gaming for it
8s is also a lot of time
It’ll happen naturally
iirc you have like 8s to get 3 spells in
But 800+ haste is like 12-13% haste
if u got nothing no rage etc just weave anythng in
inti shouts battle shouts
1000 haste is 15% ish
longstrider or bulwark of the masses?
Really solid
aye
Longstrider
Longstrider personally
^
yeah the bulwark shield gets eaten v quickly
bulwark is not amazing as we have ip
Depends
Revenge my fav rage dump XD
mm the only time i picked bulwark was over bury the hatchet
dont seem to get a lot of victory rushes in M+
Nope
time to gamble helmets
VR not consistent except for last UR boss
aye
BOTH ROLLS INTO NOWHERE
one would think with so much shit dying due to clap you'd get some rushes
I have 30k residuum. Blizz please
if you have ignore pain up and there is still damage it can absorb is it worth using again or should I wait until it's about to fall off?
Depends
there is a 1.5x cap I think
I guess Chestguard of the Deep Denizen is complete garbage for prot right? xD no bastion of might
no bastion = crappalooza
fuck it
Is it magical damage? Physical? Shield block? How much rage? Mobs close to dying? Lucid Major? Avatar?
not gonna gamble away next 30k for sure
fuu gonna take a lil time to get some good pieces xD
I guess Chestguard of the Deep Denizen is complete garbage for prot right? xD no bastion of might
@hardy raven
If it is your highest ilvl piece, then it's fine
unless you have DC in chest slot
I mean, its my highest ilvl for chest atm ye
don't worry about "wasting" ignore pains by overlapping, there is a cap but it's not important @knotty fiber
the one I got is 465
don't bother and equip
ye? ait then
We aren’t arms
Whats DC?
Deafening crash
tbh i'm not even sure if DC is still worth ilvl
aah nah, I got that on my helm
or at least as much ilvl as it used to be worth
Sounds good
that folk wisdom was from several patches ago
But 15ilvl upgrade is worth losing a bom
yee, in that case Ill equip 😄
cant manage to get a shield, Im 470 with a 400 ilvl shield...
been rerolling for 2 weeks now xD
AH?
For 445?
nah, 445k are like 60k+ I think?
445 costs like 300k in my server
just get pvp shield?
kinda expensive for the shit they are xD
Great shield though
yee, thats what I wanted to do since its gonna be the most reliable
I mean, its a great shield, but not worth that much xD
Arguably best shield unless going vers build
Im aiming for Ilgynoth shield
yee, would be awesome
8 weeks no luck so far
If I could just get into mythic raiding again... since I came back too late into the exp Im not mythic raiding this tier
might be able to pug some bosses but... no way Ill get to Ilgynoth mythic x.x
Heroic Ilgy a fine shield. Then pray for 475 from chest
Socket that boi
pshh
aah I did some MLs aswell
If I could just get into mythic raiding again... since I came back too late into the exp Im not mythic raiding this tier
@hardy raven
I've returned back in April, played a bit on RU ally(on which i was playing for 3 years before burning out due to how raiding community is "working" on RU), transferred to Kazzak and faction swapped and found myself a place in 7/12 guild as a tank trial
but uuugh
now 10/12 

aah ppl aint looking for tanks D=
Tank trial?
Ive been trying to tank for ages and find no guild for it
Hard spot to get in
wowprogress to help
I always gotta dps or just heal on other classes, and play prot just for m+ or reclears
Usually gotta start as deeps
raided on Focus for some time
now Im on a 10/12M guild, but they are full, I might be joining reclears but as healer on my paladin... which sucks xD
Raid tanking is boring anyways
I mean, its pretty chill ye xD
M+ tanking is the most fun I’ve had in the game
healing is the best for raids hahaha but, I like tanking more than healing xD
yee
I dunno how ppl dont like tanking
I find it the best in m+
It’s stressful
ye well ofc, and when u got a disc priest on grievous that has no idea, its even more 😄
but its fun
And you need lots of information
well, thats the best part, u can control the whole dung
how u wanna play it and everything
To a certain extent, yeah
did u see dhs in shadowlands? might be the best option for m+?
Once you get to a certain key level, it’s less about yourself and more the group
yee, thats for sure
havent seen them, but I like prot pally playstyle
mained prot pally in legion
dh in legion was pretty fun aswell
But for most people, any spec will be able to clear content
yee, thats right
I gotta say I never liked paly playstyle.. the prot warriors of cata though... 😛
^
lol
I mean, we will know when shadowlands is up, thats for sure
Is there a K-value calculator that is updated?
(Though that could be more of a corruption thing too with how powerful vers is)
Which has lessened that gap between ranks
Tanks*
I mean, we will have an idea
But that can change as dungeons get played more
Blood DK was doing a 28 JY the other day with Growl
And is that cuz he hasn’t seen a 28 JY?
Number 1 group in the world hasn’t seen a 28 JY yet
aaah ye
They are like 6.350k
If the number 1 peeps in the world are pretty good, what does that make us 😮
😄
VDH really has a lot of problems
My goal is 5k by pre-patch
including total lack of damage and RNG
Aren’t a lot of them switching back to spirit bomb cuz of vers Amps?
No
which is the prot guide to follow, any of em better than the rest, wowhead one or any others?

@potent bear
Icy Veins that is if you're new to prot
also

Does party cd tracking weakaura nto work with mage kindling combust and hunter cds with skitra bow?
btw which trinkets should I aim for m+? like 20s+
I know some kick WAs don’t work with skit now
is the alchemy one worth it?
How high of keys you pushing?
Don’t need vers till 24
still not a lot of gear and stuff
yee, thats why I want that TD3 and 2 IT atm
but even with that, I got reaaally low vers
like 3%?
really really low
Vita/Dragonscale/LPS/Alch
Im running vita 460 and scale 445 atm
out of curiosity, what trinks do u run
got fangs 475 for somem low keys
Me?
I push 23s rn
I’m CE so have access to all mythic loot table. I run Vita/Scale
Trying to get a LPS
Which will replace Scale
I am running Vita and mchimba when I need absorb. vita/vial when dps weeks
Try and get the LPS @sonic saddle if possible.
Nor vial
I am trying mate... to this week I rolled on it like 12 times Prot warr is my fun alt
😦
anyone done junkyard yet this week?
Yea
yes
how it is?
Ezy
Piss easy
easy
Like every week
My route is called Dying= Small Dam...Do Dont
Just the right side boss trash
Not really
where's robot flying this week?
mid, green guy or that stomping dude
dunno names of them lmao
Pull the 4 pack of troggs for extra haste Bota
Then do the extra renormalizer pack at the end
I go gunner to Trixie to King this week
I hate auto-correct

how legit do u think it is
so as go-to defensive which trinket would you chose, the other being vial 460. 470 mchimba 460 sigil 430 urchin 410 idol?
looks like a wa code
oh thats mdt code
ya is use sigil for magic instances and mchimba for physical
Sigil or Mchimba
Both are garbage anyway
Better than his other options he has
just get second haste trinket
Decent trinket
so what do u think is worth rolling in nyalotha? Im mainly missing trinkets and the shield
so Ilgynoth is a must
Shield
then maybe Nzoth?
for the LPS
could use a vita tho aswell
running sigil and scale atm
so 475 wrathion should be fine right
Shield, Wep, Vita, LPS, High Azeroth
that I think I can grind out
joining first boss pugs
475 wrath or 465 rezans I guess
ok
475 wraith May be better than a 475 rezans too
oh?
More consistent
is 475 weapon from Wrathion better than 470 from carapace?
the stat budgeting doesnt seem to be that high though
Yes
for wrath
Yes but wraith has huge uptime
Rezans has like 20-30% uptime
Wraith has like 80ish
And personally I prefer consistency, especially while tanking
@hardy raven ilvl on wep
cool, lets see if I can manage to get into any mythic pug,at least first 3 bosses
If same ilvl, Haste is BiS unless stacking vers
might do a roll on Ilgynoth and 1 for scale/weapon, or azerite
ait, atm got around 45% haste
Base? Or with Into the fray?
Get some more
ait
uuh thats good ye
But I’m moving into preparing for heavy vers
So haste/vers is on almost all my pieces
Nzoth ring really good
I kinda want to reroll there
but need the shield for sure
and if I can get into any mythic pug
may be worth more
just got wrathion weapon on hc xD feels bad, needed scale
Just started gearing my warrior for something to do, managed to get a +15 boost by my guild so I got 2x 460 1x 445 azerite from vendor.
I got 0 Bastion of Might traits, but my old gear was ~400 ilvl, should I just replace them regardless of the missing traits?
Focusing on getting rank 3 VoP today, and I should be able to buy a minor essence today
1x dc >Ilvl > traits for azerite
Unless it's literally like in your case, just equip what's your highest. Anything below 460 isn't worth at all
I managed to get 1x DC, and 1x BoM but that's it - the rest are honestly shit
I'm going to need to somehow get in a raid, I have THE worst luck with titan residuum.
are thevulpera racials worth for prot? i only ever see vulpera tanks now
If you're horde and doing m+ then sure.
40yd range pull is good
What should be the best trinkets for prot for both M+ and Raiding? im currently progressing Mythic Nyalotha and use lingering shell from Nzoth and Hummin trinket from wrath Mythic. Should i change this to something else? what do u guys recommend ?
vita and nizzy trink
Vita
or probably maut trink but it's 2 min vs n'z that's 1 min cd
Vita/Scale/Rezans/Nzoth/Alch(if full vers)
So i should replace my humming mythic trinket to my vita hc trinket ?
listen to xan. he's better than me xD
the vita also provides a group-wide buff too if you want to look into that
The procs from the scale is insane tbh.. it has a huge uptime
Yes it does
My haste is still sht tho when it procs..
xan are you planning to run r1 IT x2 with the vers corruptions?
460 vita gives way more average haste than 475 scale
Than go with vita
it's not even close, then you add in the party buff and static haste
I'll try the 460 Vita compared to the 475 Scale
I haven’t done the math
I hope to down Ra-Den Mythic soon tho, hoping for his Vita
Not huge diff between mythic and heroic vita
ra-den mythic is a very short fight but requires awareness. Once you guys get that down for the two-three orb phases, hte kill should be quite ezpz
an upgrade is an upgrade tho
the only diff is the haste proc and base haste
True
vita doesn't have str
wait I mean w/e the stat it gives xC
Haste
We had some trouble with Maut and the adds, but we have that under control now, so we oneshot maut. We're currently at Hivemind, but the healers are strugglin with the big explosions
getting caught out by the rollers is completely DPS' fault tbh
DPS can also pop stuff for volatile eruption
the rest is very controleld damage
If needed
save a rally and a healer CD forthe volatile eruption
You will experience two if not one volatile eruption. First one should be rallied with healer CD and the last one should be managed with healer CDs alone
just depleted JY, healer didnt know there are bots on last boss 

don't worry, you'll time another JY
You didn’t time but link timed run?
I think that was the time left before the wipe
Ahh
From?
probably the stun bots that drop down in phase 1
Stun em
or getting rot damage while trying to shut off the nodes
Make sure topped before going up
f
F
then probably zapped to death
You can SR bots during intermission on ramp, I wonder if you can SR bots during boss hmm
SR is my favorite Prot warrior ability
Rofl
Last weeks chest gave me 475 haste vers hands with rank 2 vers corruption on it lol
First time ever that something from the chest was good
I do hate seeing other tank classes with lower ilvl have higher HP than me lol
I sometimes see tanks with 465 ilvl having 900k+ health
While i sit there with only 800k+ xD
i literally got blamed for having no versa gear in +19
@steep bone lol healer rq
they decided to go for pillar, alone, without me and died to prowlers XD
But big numbers are better 🙂
🙃
I had a healer in a +21 yesterday do this:
And then write to me "Tank, what are you doing????".
Abyssal?
Jeah.
475 gives 1000 nzoth 470s give you 200
Cuz said 470s are from heroic difficulty
ye I just brainfarted
Does torment in a jar actually work the way it sims? my overalls on dungeons are not showing it to be stellar
did like 3mil overall
There's 2 seperate dmg logs of it iirc
Yup
yup totaled to 3mil and are dead bottom
do I need to do something special for it to work properly?
No, it just does that "little"
Around like 3k dps in dungeons
Total numbers are irrelevant, dps is what matters
Got handed a 475 Sporepod... is it viable at all on any week?
What trinkets do you have?
I think Ihave a 450 Rezans too
hit my hourly class trial limit trying to get the hidden artifact appereance 😦
had BiS gear last season
Just got back into BFA as Classic is slowing down till AQ40
Hummingbird / Jar is good?
Heard they are solid along with Vita
Scale is good. Jar is good for damage, not defense. Vita is BiS for most peeps
Vita is BiS all the way
Thanks for the replies ! I just finished my cloak how long does it take to be able to handle corruption from say Heroic items?
Picked up a 460 ring from mechagon with TD ( behind target ) shame Im not DPS XD
ilvl or the versa?
Ilvl
Esp on a shield
If youre vers stacking you take vers>ilvl on non-weapon/shield items
Okay, think I'll give this one TD then and maybe buy the 475 haste/vers shield
thank you
Epic
Wow okay - so my Razor Coral is BiS ST for its ilevel
will maxing TD help me reach all 18s in time faster (read: higher winrate) than going all vers? all of the prot warriors i play with around this key level are going full versatile (2600 io)
i just had gawdlike procs of td on maut
Ok, so.
First of all - it's a game, so people can do w/e they want obviously.
Now that's out of the way - what will help you reach all 18s in time faster is class/dungeon knowledge.
TD will give you a massive DPS boost - i'm only running TD 4 currently and it was 14k DPS from it - this however obviously doesn't do anything for your survivabilitiy.
Vers on the other hand will amp your damage & survivability both.
The thing is that in sub 20 keys (even 20-23 keys) the damage intake just is not big enough to warrant you going full out Versatility corruptions over things like TD.
Not to mention that you would need a solid amount of base versatility from gear to actually make the Vers corruptions work.
Will you have a "higher winrate" in running TD over Vers in +18 keys? Idk - impossible to answer since it comes down to your class/dungeon knowledge + your group being solid.
and i had to stop pumping 😦
if you run full versa with proper gear you’ll need almost no healing in a sub 20.
That's what playing properly grants you
^
That means your healer can focus on keeping the pepega dps alive 
Once you start running higher keys no amount of healing can safe retarded dps tho
Yes cuz 22/23 is already close to 1shot territory and I have no idea how people don't get one shot on every mechanic in 27s
Like, my group just instantly flops on tos 23 first boss conduction
is neck level the biggest increase to my HP?
Past 80, not anymore
New 120, hit 460 today after getting gear from vendor. But I'm only sitting at 625k just wondering what will boost that up
Cool
ilvl means more stamina, stamina means health
legs for example have more stamina than hands or boots
Better than last week
Teeming 
last week I found it pretty easy, 2 chesting them np
Sanguine can fuck you over real quick in ML
Sanguine isn't fun in general, it's easy most times sure
sanguine is deffo not pug friendly
I phased out in UR yesterday and dropped sanguine on the wormy boy. 
I play with a mistweaver most of the time. He’s good at correcting my mistakes 
Then again if anybody stands in a big circle that heals mobs and tank is pulling them out of I dunno wtf I can say
Since vanilla game motto been "Don't stand in that."
meh I guess Ill keep farming Atals to try get a shield
easy dung
Aint the best shield, but can be done quickly
For personal reasons I don't want to do ad for a bit
tbh until you get 465 shield any is good, or mythic one or just be lucky and get one from weekly 
yee, did all mythics last week to try get a shield and nothing
just doing 14s to get a 465 one
xD
will be huge upgrade from 400ilvl so ye
I dont mind which one it is for now
so I read the pinned post about which corruptions I should be using. currently the best Ive done in time is a 14 (started playing again after a long break in .... wrath) is the idea that we get two rank 3 twilight devs there? or is that too much?
its good meme
@hardy siren yes - TD should be to go-to in those key levels.
but max rank?
It depends on how much corruption you can handle obviously, if you want to play with Thing from beyond etc.
actually can shield drop from vision?
Got my first 475 shield last from and i have done 15+ from first week🤩
Thats some real shitty rng
You want to have as much TD as possible for the corruption level you are comfortable with. Doesn't matter if it's 2x rank 3's or 1x rank 2 and 3x rank 1's etc.
hmm ok. cheers!
👀
Last boss with all melee is like perfekt
Spiders move behind boss in à nice fail
Tail
is leaping over spiders in ad last boss a thing or you're gonna get hit by them?
how can u die in 10s, there's literally no damage in that time 
10? No it was a 16
First soulrends eh?
you said 10seconds 😄
😂
Yeah died to spider every time
If much rather have range dps for that fight drag it all across room pray melee don't get hit feel like chaos
With melee DPS it's easier - you drag the boss, melee DPS follow since "OUT OF RANGE!!!".
So you can help them avoid the spiders.
👀
But if you move in à circle in the room the Spiders will always be behind the boss, and dps run to middle to drop adds
Yea what he @ionic fern sad
Ranged DPS stand in weird places..e.g infront of the path you are taking meaning that the spiders will block you in.
😒
You shouldn’t drop ads in middle. Or you can do what you want but it makes things harder
Huhu
I used to tell party to stack on kr entrance first
and then proceed from that spot
usually works great
Ideal way I like to do that boss is tank it where it stands nuke to sub 50% then start moving once too many puddles
You don't let spider touch you, don't get a puddle
Yea i had à tank that just stod om the KR door the whole time👀 was weird asf dho
VoD of what?
m+
👍
gonna post if i record some
i've been thinkingn or either logging or recording
probs both would be the best
Probably a good idea, that's how I convinced myself to not have visibl/clickable bars
If your ui displays a lot of info, you probably dont need logs!
if you're speaking about vod review you can get yourself that thingy for Details or some weak aura that displays abilities you're using
Got roasted for being a dumb add clicker
clicking 
Meant dumbass but dumb add clicker sounds better
is it actually worth using LPS sub 20 dungs
im using it quite often and trying to do more than one pack at a time if it's possible of course
I could go vita+rezan otherwise
Clicking lives matter
this is next stage of clicking
Nah next level of clicking is moving with move pad
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/DkfhRmapMvCB7nzd/#fight=1&type=deaths&death=1 actually i got 1slapped
im pretty sure i had only one stack
Do you find yourself in situations where you would die or burden your healer without LSP?
like in fh when i did 3pack pull it saved my life (because i haven't had avatar or any cd available, pulling big one after one wasn't the best idea) and usually it's good stuff for my healer to make his life a bit easier
Then keep it on until you feel more comfortable. It’s not going to hinder you from anything 🙂
i mean LPS is godlike
but using it as something to cover my lack of skill ain't the best either as im gonna find myself in situation of getting oneshot once i get to higher +
but damn i love that trinket
I use my LSP from +15-25s just cause its chill
Can't really lie, didn't get on for anything besides getting weekly box
i use LPS only in keys above +22
You can practice your tanking skills while using the trinket. You mentioned going into a 3x pack without any CDs, thats something to work on, cooldown managment.
yeah i fat fingered avatar when 2nd boss was at like 2% health
