Spamming deva is not a thing to do in that case

yeah atm, but maybe later with legendaries etc

Fill in with deva whenever you have open gcds

Which are rare

Especially now with revenge finally becoming a rage spender worth pressing

Especially now with revenge finally becoming a rage spender worth pressing
@still pagoda why? It's rare i click it unless its free

#

what's changed

sweet summit
#

Revenge is only 20 rage

dawn pulsar
#

before was more?

sweet summit
#

Revenge is our top damage in keys atm

#

Was 30 rage

#

Also doesnt have a cooldown anymore

still pagoda
#

And does a fuckton more damage now

dawn pulsar
#

And does a fuckton more damage now
@still pagoda so i definitelly dont need devastate now, i have another spell to spam

#

#

sorry dudes quite a noob prot player but im planning to play it more cuz tank are always welcome so...its good to play it

still pagoda
#

@still pagoda so i definitelly dont need devastate now, i have another spell to spam
@dawn pulsar
You don't spam it either

#

The only 2 things you use on cd are Shield Slam and clap

#

And all the offensive cooldowns

#
  1. You always need 30 rage to prolong SB when needed (90% of the time)
  2. Spamming IP won't do much now as you can't loop rage through AM
  3. Revenge is good now but don't spam it

Anger management in this case

#

You may or may not be using anger management

still pagoda
#

^

#

You can still play BfA build

#

But it loses out value on SL launch due to loss of azerite traits

dawn pulsar
#

yeah if i remember well i had the talent for last stand

#

now im using AM

sweet summit
#

Im running bolster πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

glacial ridge
#

the idea was if you had AM, you could dump rage with IP to shorten youur coolie on Avatar etc

sweet summit
#

You still wanna use IP to smoothen the damage intake tho

still pagoda
#

glacial ridge
#

yep

still pagoda
#

Just not in a spammy way

#

Where you would ignore its absorb amount

#

Just look at it from time to time and use whenever you have rage

glacial ridge
#

in BfA it used up to 60 rage, now its 40 flat

In Legion*

Not bfa for sure

Are we still supposed to hit clap every other gcd now in avatar

#

Or is there a new approximation of how often

sweet summit
#

if you have UF you do

#

if you have ravager you cant

still pagoda
#

you still clap on cd anyway

sweet summit
#

if you have ravager its the same as old outside of avatar, so every 4th gcd

Ty, how are you guys acclimating btw. At first everything felt kinda clunky but that might just be a learning curve

And you looked up acclimated

#

Acclimate*?

still pagoda
#

acclimatisation is a long-standing meme in my family

sweet summit
#

oh ok i got it

#

spec plays the same for the majority
only big difference is the AM rage feedback (ive been playing bolster), and dragon roar/ravager not being inting
i do like that i can use revenge a lot more often, and that it actually does damage

last mason
#

Ya the lack of am feedback with last stand has been the biggest thing

#

And why is dragon roar decent now, just seems like ravager offers more

#

Like we don’t have much crit, and ravager gives the party

#

Parry*

sweet summit
#

it does not

#

ravager does not give parry anymore

still pagoda
#

And why is dragon roar decent now, just seems like ravager offers more
@last mason

Just because both BV and DR do the same thing without SL version of TGV

#

ravager gives rage now

#

and on a different row

#

so you can take both DR and ravaj

sweet summit
#

dragon roar is decent because it doesnt compete with UF, and does big dam

still pagoda
#

bliszz

#

plz

#

queue

#

then disconnect

last mason

Ohh I didn’t realize it didn’t give parry, dumb question my b. And not competing with UF is a really good point, didn’t think about that

Hi guys, im new here.. what is GS when talking about azerite?

Was that always available for prot?

you could apply it before

but it was useless

#

ravager was garbage before SL

I see

#

Thx for the info

still pagoda
#

basically

#

if you don't want to bother with something during pre-patch, stick with standard azerites

candid path
#

Yeah, I wouldn't worry too much about Gathering Storm or Bladestorm stuff unless you are wanting to experiment

uncut finch
#

Yea. I'm just getting back into wow since WoD

candid path
#

the more useful experimental play I would recommend is taking Longstrider in your Azerite Minor Slot

and using that and the extra TClap slow to pure kite

Longstrider is underrated

haven't been using ravager, tbh haven't played 2 months or so. is there often value to tossing ravager at some other location, or for convincience do '@heavy mirage macro might as well?

I mean you could probs use it for aggro on pull

#

Toss it at the pack and charge in

#

or charge in and then do it?

#

or clap -> stack shit -> ravager idk

yeah, that'll probably fit my playstyle better. can offbind it to some button if i want to toss it occasionally

Depends what’s up, if your making damage probs avatar charge in claps demo shout ravager

did they reduce the gcd btw? feels less clunky now, but then again; haven't been logged in so i might make it up

to get the 10 extra rage from "War machine" death trigger, you have to do the final blow yourself? or just be in the vicinity and hit the mob "close to when it's dying" ?

ignore pain should show up on healing meters

I'd change SoTW with Aegis yeah

in warcraftlogs they still play with that

ye but thats the only thing it offers

when aegis grants you vers and healing

sure sotw does good healing, but thats everything if offers

rigid edge

I believe for M+ Aegis is the safer option

Its not even good healing, like 60% is overhealed

even with that in mind its not terrible, but yes alot of potential healing of it is wasted

using SotW for healing greenbear

yes lemme just

heal when i take no damage

so i can't believe i done this but

i searched for top healing parses for warrios that did nya m now on prepatch

arguably one of the better scenarios for sotw being carapace where this dude is numba 1

Might do my first raid tonight as the offtank in Nya. Any advice?

modern brook
#

Use the shield but only when you need to

#

ie: if you're not actively tanking, pool charges

#

The only hard fight is probably ra-den so make sure you're brushed up on that

#

and by hard i mean like "theres actual tank mechanics"

#

IF you expect to get to nzoth maybe make sure you know the route to take psychus

#

wiping cause ur tank doesnt know where to go is fucking annoying

#

Otherwise i think most of nya is taunt when you;re told to and dont die

civic rover
#

watch darkmechs two minute tank guides

cosmic canyon
#

condemn wording has me a bit confused, "the primary target is weakened, preventing up to blabla.. Does this mean it hits several targets? other wording within the same spell has it sound like it's a single target ability

jagged pier
#

doesnt hit several targets for prot as you have no way to make it cleave

in fury you do with WW

so its ST only for us

Tyvm @modern brook @civic rover

#

At the risk of looking like a total airhead, is rotation different when not the main tank? Should I slam less? And when letting the other tank take over, do I stop all attacking altogether until they build up threat?

distant crystal
#

kinda depends

#

if you find yourself ripping off your cotank then yeah you can take it easy a bit

uneven mason
#

Well, you shouldn't use IP or SB so you're basically banking rage until its time to take over, dumping into Rev/Exe to keep from capping

#

And yeah that.

#

Warrior tends to be pretty strong in the damage end of things

#

so, its very possible to just ript aggro back after a taunt swap

tepid niche
#

I usually just hold off a little with SB to let MT get a grip of agro, then go all out, usually works fine, now we don't have the TD taunt should be easier to control tank swaps

i'm hoping for later down teh road when condemn replaces IP...
