Do you have some helpful macros that noob can use?

#

I had a long break from wow (left in WoD) comeback at end of BfA but decided to tank again at SL release

dusky mica
#

The only macro you really need is probably the charge intervene macro.

#

in BFA, prot's charge and intervene was the same button and had 2 charges.

#

In this expac we're back to 1 charge, 1 intervene. 2 abilities.

#

So maybe grab that macro from a forum or something

mossy sedge
#

Ok thanks

dusky mica
#

I think it's something like this

#

#show Charge
/cast Execute
/cast [@mouseover,help] Intervene
/cast [@mouseover,harm] [] Charge

timber lagoon
#

haste mastery for leggos right?

lusty grotto
#

no

#

haste versa

#

read up on 2ndaries if you think mastery is ok

timber lagoon
#

word word thanks

tranquil copper
#

is signet glitched for prot where our ravager doesn't proc it?

fringe marten
#

The..ring?

shut summit
#

it doesn't work for prot ravager

lusty grotto

or wrist yeah

tranquil copper

unfortunate

fringe marten
#

That feel when...you're browsing the AH for cool xmogs you don't have.. and the guy who owns the AH comes back from afk, and unsummons his mount.. /cry

#

Have a lot of guilds gotten through heroic sludge, and cleared the instance?

#

Anyone here pretty familiar with plater ?

crisp pecan
#
lavish oracle
#

Pretty sure prot is underrated

#

Def better than blood, prolly better than pally in high keys

fringe marten
#

You know who the best tank is? The guy with the Owl Bro following him around in Torghast..providing 30% run speed and 700 mastery~~ (the steward anima powers in torghast are awesome LOL)

lavish oracle
#

Pally is probably good for just crushing weekly 15s though

#

We're probably like on par with monk, though

civic rover
#

nah if prot pally damage doesn't get nerfed they could easily be one of the top tanks

#

super consistent mitigation and ridiculous damage

lavish oracle
#

For high keys? Nah, they get hit too hard

#

For like middling keys, yeah, they slap

civic rover
#

i mean what do you mean by high

lavish oracle
#

Like, if we look at world first level keys in 2 months or so

civic rover
#

if you're talking bleeding edge, it's still way too early to know, but if you're talking something similar to like what 20-25s were in bfa season 4, prot paladin will destroy those

#

ah ok that makes more sense

#

for like world first keys it could easily be VDH just because they're kiting kings

#

and these dungeons are pretty melee unfriendly

#

but it could be monk or bear too because of sheer sturdiness

#

all the tanks are good af so it's hard to tell

lavish oracle
#

I have a hunch we'll see some big bears

civic rover
#

yeah

#

im maining bear rn it slaps

tulip plover
#

Literally, with its paws

lavish oracle
#

Like for bleeding edge keys, survivability is looking like the big chokepoint atm

#

And bear is tanky af

#

But who knows, maybe we'll just be unkillable in 226 gear and damage will be in high demand

chilly brook
#

smh

sweet summit
#

Huh

chilly brook
#

@civic rover I feel for you

#

Must be better at fighting off the sleepy bear than I am

#

πŸ˜›

#

@lavish oracle as sad as it is I'm considering playing monk just because of how hard everything hits rn

#

they also kinda pipe

#

but literally anything would be better than playing this bunk DK

narrow ivy
#

@lavish oracle I'm hoping that once we get kitted out with the good stuff we'll be built like brick shithouses again but right now I can't even get into +10 keys

lavish oracle
#

@chilly brook The way I hear it, monks are getting clapped just as hard atm

#

Better kite tools on monk, I guess

#

Worse snap threat

#

If you really wanna take no damage, word on the street is bear is the way to go

narrow ivy
#

Pandaren are already bears and I get fucked

lavish oracle

potent patrol
#

Hello ! when I am not tanking anything, do i still keep maximum uptime on shield block for increased shield slam damage or do i keep the shield block charges for when i take back the boss ?

narrow ivy
#

Keep at least one

mellow patio
#

If you aren’t tanking do not spend rage on SB

lavish oracle
#

Depends on the content/talent choice probably

potent patrol
#

okay

#

if i know i will not take back the boss soon is shield block a better rage dump than revenge ?

lavish oracle
#

Hard to say, probably not

#

I think mostly you just hit revenge but I don't have any numbers to back that up

#

Maybe there's a world where you hit SB when you're running punish and ITF?

narrow ivy
#

I use SB in time with Avatar and Booming Voice/Demoralizing but

#

I'm also bad at the game

potent patrol
#

isn't devastator always the better talent ?

#

i'm talking only about raid btw

#

no mm+

narrow ivy
#

Ohhhh

#

I dont raid as prot I cant help you babe

fallow mortar
#

m+ or raid, you take devastator

potent patrol
#

alright

#

keep a stack and dump in revenge

#

thx

young glen
#

BDK getting a damage buff. Ugh.

#

Me want some too

lavish oracle
#

BDK's damage is actually absurdly low

#

ours is like basically fine by comparison

open monolith
#

πŸ™‚ got the weapon token from daddy denathrius

lavish oracle
#

Oh damn

#

I want a shield token

open monolith
#

I killed Denathrius....

#

but I haven't killed darkvein

#

or council

#

or sludgefist

#

or generals

#

lole.

#

where do I Turn in this weapon token?

#

kyrian town?

jagged pier
#

kyrain town i think, im still yet to get a wep from raid 😦

fringe marten
#

I've done a ton of M+ through 10's, cleared normal raid, I'm 7/10 heroic.... I'm using a 184 axe I got from ? mists of tirna scithe or whatever..on week 1 of M0's.

#

...LOL..hit final boss of skoldus hall for over 1 million damage with Scratched Knife.

#

330k hit, 740k overkill.

maiden ravine
#

πŸ˜„ Group got mad cause I pulled big with a stoneborn right after they used CDs. Well... tanks aren't gonna wanna pull 2 packs of dogs at once time

lavish oracle
#

@open monolith in the covenant hall on one of the side wings

#

the one opposite the trials of ascension

#

idgaf about my weapon at the moment

#

I just want a shield

maiden ravine
#

I did a 7 halls, timed it, was a little squishier than I cared for at 181 ilvl, but only key I did all week on warrior

nimble drift
#

How many mobs do yall usually pull at a time

#

I can life for like 25-30s 100%, but if I pull 2 packs and my dps is bad the pulls will go super long and I'll end up with no more cds or shit to live with

maiden ravine
#

of the dogs in Halls, 1 pack at a time

#

if I have a stoneborn, I'll try to pull 2 or 3

ionic fern
#

@nimble drift too broad of a question. What key level? What dungeon?

#

Too many variables.

ebon hound
#

Like you said Prince, that depends a lot on the strength of your group, not just you

nimble drift
#

Idk

#

I watch videos

#

people do double pulls or big pulls with prot warrior and AOE it down in 15s

#

but I recruit only, like, 193s for my +8s and they can't kill a pack before 30s

ionic fern
#

Ilvl doesnt mean anything.

#

It's rng drops which don't show if you know your class or not

ebon hound
#

I guess the only thing you really can do is make sure they have their cooldowns ready before you go into a big pull

nimble drift
#

is there something to track my dps cds?

ionic fern
#

WA

#

Something like that

sullen valve
#

UwU mwahi is a cutie

honest plinth
#

I did like 6 keys with same pugs yday. And we timed 5. 10s-12s. Idk. God bless these people.

nimble drift
#

I wish i recorded the key I just did

#

I'm using SB off cd, had 5x the interrupts, NOT KICKS, interrupts, because Im using my entire kit to kick shit

#

First death is to the ads that tenderize at the end of NW

#

and monk goes "jesus prot warr is shit"

#

then leaves

#

legit running bolster, using health pots, consuming for a +8, 192ilvl

#

Every healer I've had tells me that warrior just seems to get hit 100x harder than everything else

#

so aids

solid gulch
#

New high keys meta: swap Thunderlord for Leaper and use it to kite everything

sweet summit
#

πŸ‘€

slim oriole
#

You need to build some agro before kiting

nimble drift
#

aggro isn't an issue

slim oriole
#

It is, in fact

nimble drift
#

okay not for anything that im doing

slim oriole
#

What's your group DPS?

compact tulip
#

Depends on his group comp if tricks/MD. Tbf though, two stacks of tenderise and you should be kiting, that shit fucking wrecks any tank not just warriors

slim oriole
#

Maybe their pala is bad tho, I don't knokw

compact tulip
#

But it is just the DPS in your group though. Doing m+ with guildies myself, that have lower DPS is pretty painful in terms of survival compared to having 2 hunters for example and things just melt

ionic fern
#

Best bet is to save the relics from downstairs if you have a Kyrian and use them there.

compact tulip
#

True, but I've found that pets and melee can take one stack until they've dropped, but I guess the higher you go, that won't be an option

ionic fern
#

My paladin healer who was dps'ing got oneshot yesterday.

#

πŸ˜‚

compact tulip
#

Lmao

ionic fern
#

In cordinated groups it won't be a issue probably since you can use defensives etc.

#

I mean, DPS'ers can use defensives and soak.

#

But in a PuG you're out of luck since chances are they don't know what's going on.

#

πŸ‘€

prime edge
#

So does anyone have tips for m+ 10 and up? I feel like i melt or get deleted sometimes.

compact tulip
#

Yep, I think saving weapons from down is probably the best shout for those

prime edge
#

Do you guys kite a lot? I try to use the Kyrian Spear and kite away, some packs are fine but i find myself running from a lot of pack to.

nimble drift
#

Idk thinking I may just reroll a dps

#

Just like, this tanking meta of having to kite every pack is super frustrating

sweet summit
#

Yes you have to kite

dark lark
#

Just reroll bear

sweet summit
prime edge
#

its the only thing i feel like do.

I charge in, clap once or twice with defensives and then i run around hiding

sweet summit
#

You should be able to stay in as long as you have sb

#

If u dont have sb/sw ur dead

nimble drift
#

yeah but if im not in

#

I can't kick

#

and the dps never kick

#

and people just die to shit

sweet summit
#

But youre out of range of the mob

#

So it xant hit you

prime edge
#

@nimble drift i sometimes do charge in and kick and leap out.

#

I guess i just got to used to the BFA tanking on my warrior in this is a small difference now from the ^^

fringe marten
#

In plater I can't seem to get my Enemy HP bars to get off of 'copy personal' ? it's very weird. I change it..it changes in the menu, then goes back to copy personal.

nimble drift
#

If anyone has vids of high keys they're doing i'd appreciate to see

#

trying to do this shit in time, I need to see the playstyle vs my playstyle

jagged pier
#

only have vids of my raid kills, but also havent run keys, will be doing some tonight though

#

but sense will probably have uploaded some

lavish oracle
#

Pretty sure warrior actually doesn't get hit harder than the other tanks

#

but the only point of reference I have so far this xpac is paladin and they always get hit hard

#

@nimble drift Lightee did keys on warrior for like 14 hours the other day

#

14s, mostly

#

His talent setup was a little weird but like, it's lightee

#

Like all tanks are getting hit hard at the moment, but community perception of warrior is in the shitter so people see a warrior getting hit hard and think "Oh, it's because warrior is shit" even if the warrior is taking less EHPS to keep up

#

Happened last xpac too even though warrior was like objectively the best tank against physical damage

eager lodge
#

@nimble drift sense has all his keys up on youtub now as well

maiden ravine

lavish oracle
#

how do you mean?

jagged pier
#

cant open the swolking menu for me just wont open in m+

sick sentinel
#

Thats a you problem

#

Maybe an addon is messing with it?

lavish oracle
#

Yeah, pretty sure there's an addon messing with it

#

Dratnos had it happening earlier

#

Angry Keys maybe?

#

Or Little Wigs?

jagged pier
#

could be i guess

#

but why would that stop it?

sick sentinel
#

No idea

lavish oracle
#

had an "automatically choose gossip dialogue" in options, iirc

#

something along those lines

sick sentinel
#

Some addons stop me from using quest items

lavish oracle
#

that he had to disable

sick sentinel
#

Randomly

lavish oracle
#

I'll see if I can find Dratnos fixing the issue, it was at a random ass point in his stream so I probably won't be able to find it though

jagged pier
#

dont worry about it ill have a look later when im not working

lavish oracle
#

πŸ‘

restive flax
#

our cartoon sword has a santa hat now

jagged pier
#

its better

restive flax
#

because you see less of it?

jagged pier
#

yes

amber sedge
#

Maybe I'm an idiot but I'm not sure how to use statistics on Warcraft logs to see stuff other than DPS, HPS, or kill speed.

brave jetty
#

Any classes we have particular synergy with in M+ that are worth knowing?

jagged pier
#

what you mean Bat what sort of synergy you looking for?

brave jetty
#

I set up a lot of PUGs and am trying to improve my comp construction a bit beyond "hey we need bloodlust and maybe some reliable interrupts besides me"

jagged pier
#

one melees always good or a shammy for short inturrpts

#

rogues got shroud

#

bloodlust is good

#

CR is good to have

nimble drift
sweet summit
#

Sense is the god

dense vessel
#

You want something to remove enrages too

jagged pier
nimble drift
#

ty

brave jetty
#

that's just hunters/druids, right?

sweet summit
#

And rogues

dense vessel
#

rogues too with shiv

brave jetty
#

oh dang how long has that been a thing

sweet summit
#

Since sl prepatch i think

^^

slim oriole
sharp void
#

yea with the morphin poison

jagged pier
#

in the pug world

slim oriole
brave jetty
#

i'll be honest i don't trust PUG disc whatsoever

slim oriole
#

Then I don't see any sense in question, guy's looking for combinations in PuG... Why?

#

You get what you get, not what you want

jagged pier
#

well if you make the group, you get what you want tbh its your choice

slim oriole
#

If you meet a good disc, it would make good combo, better than others

brave jetty
#

Well, no, I have control over the classes that get in

#

and usually have my pick of DPS, at the very least

#

I take your point though

slim oriole
#

If you experience trouble with agro, pick hunters or rogues. But that's obvious.

brave jetty
#

nah not usually trouble w/aggro

slim oriole
#

Can't really imagine some hidden gem combos, it's not DotA.

brave jetty
#

just trying to find if people factor in something that I wasn't thinking of

slim oriole
#

Try not to pick many AoE stuns also.

#

As you already have one, and it has tendency to mitigate.

#

Priests with their fear in addition to yours would fit just fine

#

One more point to disc -.-

lavish oracle
#

I've always felt druids suited warrior a little more

#

Strong healing over time for a tank who's whole thing is damage smoothing

#

And then barkskin gives us an extra CD to fill our mitigation gaps

onyx matrix
#

nice haste xd

#

hey guys what talents do you play with during m+?

magic sage
#

Prot not benefitting from double proc on signet is an oversight. Parity on usefulness must be restored between the three specs. Include the Prot Ravager ID into the legendary effect.

ionic fern
slim oriole
onyx matrix
#

gotcha, thanks guys ^^

pliant narwhal
#

so we are the worst tanks and ddΒ΄s now:(?

ionic fern
#

Huh?

jagged pier
#

eh?

pliant narwhal
#

prot warrior deals the lowest amount of damage in the new raid. but they are also the most squishy ones according to wowheads mplus rating

ionic fern
#

πŸ‘€

jagged pier
ionic fern
#

ANother tier list?

small venture
#

I don t know, but i have hard Times with lots of pulls in mythic.
There are often 3/4 mobs, bit spread, i try to keep them all, but It a dps start unleash havoc on one, it's hard keep them all

#

Tanking with a warrior is nightmarish 😩

ionic fern
#

Not really.

jagged pier
#

nope its not

pliant narwhal
ionic fern
#

When i'm playing with pug's i'm constantly keeping up with the DPS'ers. πŸ‘€

#

Warrior tuning soon. ℒ️

jagged pier
#

same, you do know though logs are from like 300 data points instead of thousands like other tanks

#

so its less accurate

ionic fern
#

There is always class tuning going on early on in expansion.

#

So all we have to do is wait until it's our turn.

#

In reality - as long as you play the class correctly you won't have any issues.

#

🀷

slim oriole
#

I don't remember tuning for protwars in the very first tier BFA ever

small venture
# ionic fern Not really.

Then please educate me, how i keep all the aggro without losing any mob, as far i cast thunderclap repeteadly

ionic fern
#

Thunder Clap is a weak spell.

#

Revenge/Ravager/BV/Spear(Ancient Aftershock).,

#

Revenge > TC in damage.

jagged pier
#

but its not fair Mwahi I want to be top damage top tankiness tank again where i dont have to think so I only have to press TC again and feel good about myself not being bad as the class covers for my bad play clowning

ionic fern
#

RAvager and Spear/Ancient Aftertshock are great snap threat tools.

pliant narwhal
#

are we talking about +14 dungeonsß

jagged pier
#

where all tanks are kiting anyway πŸ€”

ionic fern
#

Idk what you're talking about.

#

You linked a raid list so i thought you're talking about raid.

pliant narwhal
#

then u swapped to thunderclap aggro

ionic fern
#

HE has raids & higher keys.

#

What?

#

"Swapped to thunderlcap aggro"?

jagged pier
#

someone asked a question dude

#

he answered that guy

pliant narwhal
#

so you have problems with aggro in general, or only in high keys, when you have to kite?

ionic fern
#

I don't have issues with aggro.

#

o.o

jagged pier
#

there is no aggro issue

#

but people do have them 🀷

ionic fern
#

Someone had issues with aggro and asked a question - i awnsered their question

pliant narwhal
#

i see ty

#

got that mixed

ionic fern
#

: )

stuck oriole
#

Really you guys dont have aggro issues? Im at 193 doing +10s and im really struggling qith holding aggro so i can kite

#

What are you guys doing to hold aggro? Im dropping it through avatar and tclap

pliant narwhal
#

i have these issues while kiting in big pulls.

jagged pier
#

well theres your issue TC does fuk all not

#

PRESS REVENGE

slim oriole
#

But there's a point in early revenge

ionic fern
#

Okay, lets get this straight.
Thunder Clap damage has been nerfed heavily..it is hitting weaker than Revenge.

slim oriole
#

Bleed is your 3rd damage position

ionic fern
#

Revenge is your AoE "damaging" ability.

#

Thunder Clap is there just for the Rage gen.

pliant narwhal
#

when i go close to revenge i will die

ionic fern
#

πŸ€”

stuck oriole
#

I am hitting revenge on the opener but i also need ignore pain so i dont insta die

jagged pier
#

πŸ€”

pliant narwhal
#

so i charge in , with all cds, drop the spear and dragons roar and jump out

#

10 sek later i dont have aggro

ionic fern
#

Dragon roar? o.o

jagged pier
#

DR ZOOMEReyes

ionic fern
#

Why do you jump out even?

stuck oriole
#

Youre running dr?

ionic fern
#

You can stay in there for a while.

#

Depending on key level.

cerulean quest
#

Anyone tried Arena as prot

pliant narwhal
#

no i cant or id dont have any healer

stuck oriole
#

Oh yeah arena as prot slaps with good dps

ionic fern
#

Then you probably don't have a healer.

stuck oriole
#

Great cleave

cerulean quest
#

Yeah with a rogue in 2s, kinda fun

pliant narwhal
#

i go in with shieldwall ~6-8 mobs, and have to go out before wall is ending, or i am instant dead

#

after that i jsut run

stuck oriole
#

I been running with a feral druid when he convokes its a deleter

ionic fern
#

Shield Block?

#

o.o

jagged pier
#

SB?

#

into SW

#

you last a lot longer

pliant narwhal
#

sb vs caster?

ionic fern
#

YOu are not really specific about your scenarios.

jagged pier
#

cc? inturpts stuns

ionic fern
#

Just making us guess.

#

.....

slim oriole
#

Why do you pull 8 casters?

ionic fern
#

What key levels?
What dungeons?

#

Logs?

stuck oriole
#

I mean thats still 2.5 minutes per pull we cant do that

pliant narwhal
#

well if i pull 8 mobs in that addon

#

there are 4 casters in every dungeon

jagged pier
#

that addon?

#

what?

stuck oriole
#

Does raider io give logs?

jagged pier
#

nope

#

logs give logs

slim oriole
#

Also you have aoe stun

#

And fear

ionic fern
#

And DPS'ers who should interrupt.

#

...

jagged pier
#

and stun

#

and you can cc mobs

stuck oriole
#

Everyone should interupt hold healers to it too

slim oriole
#

Or at least LoS casters

ionic fern
#

People fail to realise that tank survivability, especially now, is made and broken by DPS players.

onyx matrix
#

lol you know a grp is bad when a dps leaves after 2 wipes

ionic fern
#

If they interrupt you should have no issues.

onyx matrix
#

during m+7

ionic fern
#

If they don't..you're dead.

stuck oriole
#

You have to get the whole dungeon to los casters because they just target who they see

ionic fern
#

Easy as that.

Question about DR vs Booming voice in m+.
If I run the wall and UF/AM, would be interesting to have DR to snap aggro/have rage to SB right away? (I was trying to figure out why darkeewar was running this setup)

slim oriole
#

In 1st case you LoS them. In second, you don't get that much dmg.

stuck oriole
#

Depends on who they are sanguine depths is random

jagged pier
#

EVER

stuck oriole
#

Wait why are we not running uf?

#

Its more distance to kite and a slow

jagged pier
#

its less damage and rage and aggro

#

Rav is better

glossy pawn
#

What is UF?

jagged pier
#

for literally everything in m+ even with TL

slim oriole
stuck oriole
#

The thunderclap buff during avatar

#

Ok i’ll try it

cerulean quest
#

I run TL and Rav πŸ™‚

jagged pier
#

but TC was mega nerfed doesnt matter about avatar

slim oriole
#

I too was running UF/AM first, but then checked top RIO prots on realm and switched to ravager/bolster, things got a lot more easier

compact tulip
#

It's honestly pretty weak, plus I find it gets in the way with SS procs too

glossy pawn
#

Oh that one. Yea I tried it and it's not that good compared to the other ones.

jagged pier
#

^^ also this diffcult to weave TC in during avatar as you should be prioing everything else

stuck oriole
#

Ok let me just cross reference here we always run booming voice for the dps right?

sweet summit
#

Pmuch

#

And big rage

glossy pawn
#

Ravager and the haste one I think you swap around depending on content but I would always run bolster, its way too good.

modern flower
#

When the spell reflect list says that Fetid Gas is reflectable does that mean that you can negate the initial damage from the aoe if you have spell reflect up while standing in the aoe?

#

Same thing on mists

Its like ~5dps

ionic fern

It can be better. πŸ‘€

stuck oriole

Im more worried about maintaining threat than dps i got 3 insansely good dps for that

For me at least

It is better ST dps by far what do you mean

#

eh?

restive flax

I have had initial threat issues too, but those are pretty much gone by now

stuck oriole

You guys really dont like punish even on gargoyles?

APL is using IP to spend some rage.

far better <2 % is not far better

restive flax

SB while enemies are actively punching you and smooth out damage intake with IP (spend leftover rage)

If you have aggro problems at the beginning try to sneak in a Revenge early to have deep wounds on every mob

hi, quick question here, how do you analyse logs as tank ?

What do you want to analyse?

I found that Menace with the cacophanous voice makes your shout basically a 0,5 -1 second stun

stuck oriole
#

Aight imma try all this stuff i was confident it wasnt that class i was just fuckin shit up thanks guys

And to check for survivability look for SB uptime when actively tanking (or blocked hits %) and for burst damage check CD usage.

Is there any actual difference between the 207 sword and ax? I saw the stats were the same, the sword had a tighter range of attack damage

Not really. The most generic one would be Celestial

does that perform better than lightless force?

Potentially - sim yourself.
Lightless will probably outshine in aoe.

Okay so In my various mythic+ runs I've definitely felt more in control of my own survivability and threat with Ravager and Bolster instead of Unstoppable Force and Anger Management.

A part of me is kind of sad, but also a part of me recognizes that it's so much more enjoyable to have more valuable cooldowns at your disposal for each pack.

#

But also, 21 mythic+ runs so far and I've gotten 1 item, so despite having even done a 10 (not on time) I'm still a lowly 181

is there a place to casually play prot with venthyr (saying spamming m7 for example?) i found my self dying hardtime, but not sure if it's my fault or healers, i'm not pulling too much either, but mobs hits like a truck x.x, should i always have some kind of mitigation (like IP + SB at the same time?, or just 1 of them is enough?)

# arctic wasp is there a place to casually play prot with venthyr (saying spamming m7 for exam...

ummm can be a lot of factors
your play, could be using mitigation wrong SB for physical damage and if u have extra rage then IP on top, and IP for magical. as your venthyr you could be using condemn on AOE which is a no no tbh.
group play, you will get chunked by magic damage like any other tank so your group and you need to cc and inturpt etc
some talents can help you with rage gen for defensive and shut
or a mixture of all 3 factors

arctic wasp
jagged pier
#

yep

#

otherwise its useless as it only give damage reduction against the mob you condemn

arctic wasp
#

correct, in that case IP is way better to dump that extra rage

i recall it giving more in BFA but i could be wrong, i had to use devestate and quit playing

#

lmao

high folio
#

could be why

still pagoda
#

and i don't see anything bad in devastate as a separate filler

still pagoda
#

not "could"

high folio
#

i just didnt like how that spell felt

sweet summit
#

ItF was 15% in bfa
now its 10%

high folio
#

ohhh thats right

still pagoda
#

this too, but you also had much more baseline haste from all the trinkets and stuff

high folio
#

and devestate felt spammy to me, idk didnt like it

#

my prot warrior never made it out of zandalor questing gear lmao, i didnt have any haste

#

Should I have more hps than a druid tank?

sweet summit
#

healing per second?

#

no

restive flax
#

that feels super weird yeah πŸ˜„

sweet summit
#

depends on who much damage you and him is taking tho

restive flax
#

I mean its lady inerva

sweet summit
#

tells me nothing

jagged pier
#

logs?

steel mauve
#

druids heal more for more damage taken, where as prot war isnt like that exclusively

restive flax
#

I idnt really mean to get a scientific answer lol, just overall

#

I start tanking the boss

#

so until the second debuff he doesnt heal much probably

high folio
#

in other words the harder a druid gets hit the more they heal iirc

#

with indom our healing is p flat amount

sweet summit
#

ehh its both ways

high folio
#

yeah ig IP would be in a similar way

#

harder hit = more of the absorb is used

restive flax
#

you have constant damage on you after the first tank swap though. So Id still heal

high folio
#

did you have a bigger health pool then him

restive flax
#

or rather, absorb

#

yes

high folio
#

indom is % heal

restive flax
#

he was at like 45k and I have 48.1k

#

we have priest buff

high folio
#

may be part of it, idk tho im just spit balling

restive flax
#

Yeah no worries, I was just curious because I never considered warrior to be a "healing" tank

high folio
#

every IP you cast is 4% of your max health healeed

#

so your 4% is a bit bigger w a 48k health pool

restive flax
#

yeah true

high folio
#

yeah

steel mauve
#

they arent a healing tank, but you just cant take numbers on details into account with out the whole picture, there are a ton of variables that can change the out come of performance

#

even the healers hps, did they panic top him off, his regen would then be over healing instead of healing

high folio
#

^^^

steel mauve
#

disc priest, did he keep shields up and prevent actual damage done to him, because the difference in prot war and druid, we also prevent health damage that can never be an over heal with IP, theirs is only self healing

high folio
#

also facts

#

druid may not have been that efficient with his frenzied regens (i think thats what its called idk bear butt)

oh snap the discord icon sword got a santa hat, i like it

at what key level are people having to start kiting a lot? i took big hits up to +4, didn't try much beyond because pug healers have been... interesting.

the dudes who kicked me out of the guild

Doubt it

im guild is one boss ahead

chilly brook
#

People will still say something stupid

still pagoda
#

i'm still without a guild

#

guess this will be forever or until i break and go DPS

chilly brook
#

I.e. "BuT wE hAvE sElF sUsTaIn TaNk NoW"

#

or form a new guild with friends if such possibility will arive

chilly brook
#

Honestly though monk does pipe

still pagoda
#

the problem is: Self-sustain is meaningless on tanks unless we're talking of DK whos entire mitigation profile is healing back the hits you got, and even than it is not "self-sustain"

chilly brook
#

In single target

#

Ye I was topping healing last night on heroic hunstman

#

But I still needed tons of healing lmao

still pagoda
#

exactly

#

all tanks need a certain degree of healing

#

that is the same for every single one now

#

Except for monk

#

monk needs even more
