They're literally goblins with different textures

Shocker, Maghar Orcs animatins are copy-pasted from Orc Orcs

No!

NEVER peepostudy

And Highmountain Tauren copy paste the Tauren Tauren

Dark Iron Dwarves

jagged pier
uneven mason
#

Use the Same stuff as Normal dwarves

#

wat

#

(even their racial)

#

So yeah, I Mean, the short race with big ears, is the same skeleton with the short race with big ears, when they made these allied races, they literally went "How many resources can we recycle?"

#

Kultirans are what happen when you dip Pandarens in nair

#

true lore reason they exist

sterile moss
#

But everyone wanted to see trolls with their backs straightened

#

so Blizz obliged with Zandalari

strong forum
#

too bad their animations suck

uneven mason
#

Its because they use the NE skeletons

#

and NE have always have complete garbage animations

silver trout
#

yeahhhhh

#

i started playing my NE hunter again, and i forgot how bad her animations are

uneven mason
#

try the male

#

its 100x worse.

sterile moss
#

I thought they resemebled Nelf males

#

so that's actually true?

fierce tendon
#

of course, blizz doesn't want to actually make new models for player characters, would take waaaay too much work

#

all dem transmogs

uneven mason
#

Because they have to refit every texture for every armor model type they have. or resize the textures that they do have. I mean we've seen how lazy they are with this.

#

They literally stopped making tier sets "because art"

#

Some of these covenant sets are slightly modified sets from previous teirs

fierce tendon
#

yep, I am pretty sad to see that for some of the covenant shit at higher renown its just recolors

uneven mason
#

IF they do come up with "tier sets" again we're going to see something more like Tier 9, but without the Faction difference.

#

ITs going to be plate has recolors for War/Pal/DK

#

rather than each having a unique model

#

"Oh golly another yellow set for us warriors, DKs have blue and Paladins get red (Because pink would look stupid right?)"

fierce tendon
#

yeahhh i ain't a fan of plate transmog this expac, but thats how they've been aiming for the last 2 expacs which is zzz

#

wonder why the bigger budget they have the less they put in for character appearance choice lul

safe quarry
#

is the top trinket good for tanking

#

the viscera one

In all of Spires the ToP trinket procced 8 times for me lolwut

#

tyvm!

modern brook
#

The difference is minimal but one of them has better itemization in the raid

undone jacinth
#

u can make the opposite argument

fierce tendon
#

did anyone here solo twisting corridors btw, I'm pretty sure I made it thru by the skin of my teeth but that shit was legit difficult at 17/18

undone jacinth
#

better to say there is no preference

modern brook
#

yah its based mostly on your loot spread.

#

But i tihnk in a full BIS there are better gloves than shoes

#

🤷‍♂️

undone jacinth
#

yeh but the hands come from generals and the boots from shriekwing or something

modern brook
#

that was it the higher ilvl from generals

undone jacinth
#

I meant sludge

modern brook
#

im getting baited

undone jacinth
#

not in game at the mo

modern brook
#

But yeah "no preference" is probably applicable if you're asking the qustion in the first place

undone jacinth
#

but I’m pretty sure haste mastery boots shriek and haste vers hands sludge

#

exactly

#

the more likely scenario is that u vault the slot

#

so it’s just rng anyway

modern brook
#

Or you can be like me and misremember the advice and replace your 184 gloves while leaving your 156 boots only to never be punished and get 213 boot drops the next day

#

😎

undone jacinth
#

that’s the way to do it

I think I only have like 1 Lego above 190 across my characters anyway

too expensive and I like having 5 to choose from xd

deft bridge

I wanna try arbiter out but I can’t bait anyone in to getting it

it is sad

fierce tendon
#

I have 1 190 and a 235

#

Arbiter seems funky

undone jacinth
#

I’m sure with 5 arbiters it would pump

#

if u all formed a pentagon

fierce tendon
#

lmfao

#

everyone pentagon formation yep

modern brook
#

oh my math

undone jacinth
#

I dunno how I’ve not convinced anyone yet

modern brook
#

Optimal polygon shape to maximize arbiter daamge while minimizing Prideful movement

#

now thats a game theory

#

its probably a pentagon but what if its not 🙂

fierce tendon
#

once we get further in ima try to get my boys to do that

#

are they ever gonna increase the 1140 u get weekly for soul ash?

modern brook
#

prolly not

#

at least not this raid

fierce tendon
#

yea

modern brook
#

As it is right now between Torghast, Torghast quests, and the command table you get enough for a new legendary every week

#

which is a fast enough cadence tbh

undone jacinth
#

for some

#

my druids 6 legendaries disagree

fierce tendon
#

how often do u get that soul ash mission at the table btw? every week?

#

or random

undone jacinth
#

think I had it a couple of times in one week

#

I thought it was based on when you complete those ‘campaign advancement’ missions

#

but that’s a guess

fierce tendon
#

hmm yeah

#

i do those but it never seems to change anything

undone jacinth
#

they’ve seemed to tie in to my ash quests and when u have an ash quest and do one the ash quest disappears

Hi guys, are the 2 best trinkets for m+ still the same as the ones posted on icy veins?

Otherwise, can you kindly share the best trinkets we should aim for?

#

Trying to set a goal and attempt to gather them

strong forum
#

Anima field emitter
Bloodscale
Is probably the best trinket combo

uneven mason

Who kept getting scales in their vault

#

I can't remember

placid oar
#

Wooo I see, thank you Nomeratur!

uneven mason
#

already had one

#

wish I could get a scale in my vault

Would the tank trinket from Sire Denethrius be better than scale?

strong forum
#

Not better overall

#

But nice qol cuz it's 1min CD

placid oar
#

I see

strong forum
#

Equal at best

uneven mason
#

AFE and Scale give the best all around coverage

#

tanking though is all about situational

#

hard to beat the scaling on that scale though.

placid oar

Icic, thank you so much guys

Will be hoping for a scale trinket one day in the vault

Honestly fort is free u just need to play the game

Tyr feels super overtuned this season personally

bosses just have sooooooooooo much health.

especially as you get into higher keys

lavish oracle

Eh, some dungeons are worse than others

Wake actually felt fine on tyr, though 3rd boss seems like it could be a big problem on higher keys

Depending on whether or not stitchwork health scales with tyr

it scales with fort

bro thats a vibe i can appreciate

M+ has felt like a real chore this expac

Jorjo to answer you directly: Its probably ok - stats in general are really good for us

I think there are better stuff if you're good spamming dungeons

#

but from the raid its probably one of the better

i just started playing towards the end of bfa, can someone explain kiting to me? I don't really know when or how to kite

uneven mason

Don't do it

pale bronze

Basically only kite if you have nothing left and are gonna die, are in danger of dying and need to recover, or if you need to drop necrotic stacks

I do a little bit of it here since it was necrotic last week if you want a visual representation

uneven mason

I'm so glad it wasn't a "Hold my beer" week

chilly brook

This week is great

#

Ended mists with 3.8k overall dps keksquad

uneven mason

because after spiteful and necrotic/inspiration

I think if htye had come up with something worse than last week, I would have just turned in my shield and PVP'd until season 2

might end up doing that anyway with how ass loot distribution has been

Literally "Fun detected" Timewalking loot

"OMG People's item levels increased by more than 1 from a raid, CAN'T HAVE THAT!"

I dont want to pvp to pve

uneven mason

Imaine how PVPers have felt for the last decade and a half

chilly brook

This could have all been fixed

If they just did the WoD system

uneven mason
#

ICC system

#

Earn tokens from killing bosses - buy stuff to fill in slots

#

or they could've done what BFA did

#

remember that

#

but make it for all gear

#

actually n

#

nm that system was ass

#

Legion had it pretty good

#

at the end

chilly brook
#

WoD really was the best way to do it tbh

pseudo raptor
#

For those running devastator how is your aggro management? I usually use devastate to snag mobs if SB and TC aren’t up.

jagged pier
#

its fine

uneven mason
#

THere are people who don't use Devastator?

jagged pier
#

yes

uneven mason
#

Poor souls

#

using GCDs to literally waste a GCD

#

reminds me of 8.0

chilly brook
#

PvP gear that was good enough to get you into raiding but it wasn't notably good in PvE but it scaled to be better than PvE gear in PvP

uneven mason
#

i liked tbc

chilly brook
#

Like ilvl scaling was a good system in WoD idk why they scrapped it

#

Oh wait I do

pseudo raptor
#

That’s part of the problem. Think im stuck in 8.0 logic. I tried it during launch and the rotation felt like there were gaps and I struggled for aggro.

uneven mason
#

revenge has no cd

I mean, it does illustrait warriors oddity as basically the only tank whos defensive abilities do not do damage

never pad 😦

spare oracle

whats pading?

uneven mason
#

Sunking was over shockingly fast

chilly brook
modern brook
#

Padding is like inflating your damage

chilly brook
#

Might suggest that to my healing bois

uneven mason
#

its when you ignore mechanics/defensives to just blow your load and maximize damage

jagged pier
modern brook
#

its when you put a bunch of damage out on stuff that doesnt matter so you look like you're doing a lot but in reality you're just aoeing when you should be single targeting

uneven mason
#

I was prepping for like

#

a fight

chilly brook
#

I mean I have my 99 what do I care at this point

modern brook
#

Like using Cooldowns on the imps that spawn in sunking

jagged pier

big TRU

uneven mason

but the 2nd shade popped out after like 25seconds and I was like wait, we still have BL wtf?

spare oracle
uneven mason
#

the floor

chilly brook
#

Or like tanking the last boss of council on top of a bunch of adds to inflate your damage

Which is big dumb

Dont do that

its not mother level of padding

Buffed stabby boi is not a nice idea

we do stabby, lunge, spikes

only know them by mechanics XD

uneven mason

I think I literally screamed IRL

chilly brook

That being said

#

I took like 6 of the stabs before tank swap

#

Just for fun

#

Didnt even do more than 25% of my health

uneven mason
#

stabby boys raw melee is something else tho

#

his tank swap is "meh"

#

but his autos are like double the other dashyboy

chilly brook
#

Dashy boi is just annoying cuz you have to 180 to block it

uneven mason
#

yup

chilly brook
#

You can take the first one to the back with no issue

uneven mason
#

2nd one gotta spin

chilly brook
#

But anything past that actually hurts to the back

jagged pier
#

im pretty sure you can just block it

chilly brook
#

You can

jagged pier
#

i stand there and take no damage

#

i dont spin

chilly brook
#

But he teleports behind you

#

Shouldn't be able to

#

But check your log

sinful pivot

I've still not been able to reliably 180 to block that

Seems really hard to time

More often than not, I make him lunge to the side and into my raid KEKW

Other than the usual hard Tyrannical bosses

This week, however, is also very easy

Nectrotic is problem for tanks who cant block

no its a problem for tanks who dont know what to do

Yes

Am still learning to tank

#

Cause i get insta declined in anything

#

Does shield block negate necrotic ?

jagged pier
#

no

crude crypt
#

How to deal with it as prot warrior ?

jagged pier
#

lots you can do

#

if you are kyrain

#

phail removes it

#

kelia gives you immunity for 8 secs to it as well

crude crypt
#

Am not kyrian

jagged pier
#

you have shockwave, spear (if kyrian), leap intervene

#

u basically just kite till it drops

#

have loads of tools for that

crude crypt
#

Ahh

jagged pier
#

mance and the fear conduit is a good combo

#

if your careful about where you knock the mobs back too as well

crude crypt
#

I thought shield block wouldn't apply new stacks

jagged pier
#

nah its applied on melees

#

block doesnt stop melees

crude crypt
#

It says it stops all melee attacks

jagged pier
#

just reduces the damage you take from them according to block value on the shield

crude crypt
#

I just started tanking m0

jagged pier
#

if shield block stop you taking any damage we would be broken

crude crypt
#

So i have so much to learn

#

Not any damage but melee swings

#

Rienhardt

jagged pier
#

block only applies to melees and physical range attacks

jagged pier
uneven mason
#

some AoE and boss mechanics are "blockable"

crude crypt
#

I drop nectrotic stacks for tanks as arms last week

uneven mason
#

In the pins there is a spreadsheet of what is reflectable/blockable in dungeons and raid

crude crypt
#

Intervene die by the sword

uneven mason
#

Take a look if you're new to prot

a simple piercing howl while they leap out would do it

uneven mason

also we have Challenging shout as arms

That too

Challenging + DBTS = literally no damage for 6 seconds

thats very scary

uneven mason

Its a fixate not a taunt btw

crude crypt
#

Hmm

sweet summit
#

intervene is way safer

uneven mason

Challenging shout drops the aggro after the 6 seconds

But how do the tank regain aggro ?

guys i have TL rank 2, it's worth to make the wall rank 2-3 or just max LT and then craft the wall? (i tank only in plus)

You can book it before DBTS ends.

its just to reset stacks/save a tank

why doe

strong forum

haste.

haste verse vs haste mastery

#

does haste really weight that much?

strong forum
#

its BIG haste versus LOW haste

neat dirge

ah ok

fallow mortar
#

I need a dave chapel meme with prot symbol over his face and the text saying "y'all got any haste?"

remote hawk
#

So i'm a 192 ilvl warrior with a 184 chest 47critt/87haste and a 184 neck 98 critt/48 vers.

In the vault i got a 216 chest now 47 critt/87 haste. And a neck 210 135 haste/ 54 mastery. Can't really decied what to get of those 2

doing m+ more or less only

Also got my 190 covanant chest today. I kinda wanna go for the neck instead since it's a buttload of haste on it and put on the 190 chest. Same amount of i lvl upgrades but a lot less mainstats i guess

strong forum
#

chest

#

210 you can still get from just doing m+

#

armor pieces have higher prio due to mainstat gains

#

and its 6 ilvl above what m+ can drop at all

remote hawk
#

yeah

#

going for the chest

#

ty for awnser

craggy harness
#

oh so that's how affixes are going to work, each set of 6 is a set of affixes, and you keep them for next, even if they don't increase

Is there a good resource for trinket rankings for M+?

remote tusk
#

Signet + Shouts in Torghast is too funny when you have +180% avatar increaes

spire trinket is one of best

and then your choice between a dps one or a survival one is what i would reccomend.

or nathria trinket

Best covenant for prot ?

kyrian / venthyr

quaint turret
sweet summit

Kyrian/nf
Venthyr is solid for st dps but weak defensively compared to kyrian and night fae

still hearth
#

Aye was leaning kyrian/NF.

sweet summit
#

Night fae is more damage, kyrian is better defensively (due to the sip) phial is so good for removing bleeds and shit+a nice lil heal

#

New to warrior tanking: I'm having trouble holding aggro in larger keys/packs of 4 or more... i normally leap in, thunderclap, shout, then put a defensive up so i dont die.. any tips to hold aggro better?

sweet summit
#

You need to use revenge

#

Even when its not free

#

Its a huge part of our damage breakdown now

#

Also, talent into ravager and not unstoppable force

#

Generally charge in, dont leap

#

Get shield block up asap

#

Then start pressing revenge

floral scroll
#

ok kool

#

i'll start with this

#

thx for the tips

sweet summit
#

Looks something like
Ravager->charge->avatar+shield block->revenge->demo shout->ip->shield slam/revenge spam

#

Its not that black and while, just a small tip

floral scroll
#

Awesome, thx

sick sentinel

@sweet summit do you still main warrior?

it switches every time renown makes a milestone I guess xd

switching soulbinds each week isnt too much effort tbh

why would you play fury

because its fun

due to some changes in our guild, i will be having to swap to prot, can anyone let me know on some info for BiS lego and stats, or at least point me towards a guide i can look at?

you can still get pretty high rio with fury

Do I be smart and slot Show of Force in my new potency slot?

acoustic stratus

and spec really, the roof is just different

cinder nova

Or smoothbrain and do Ashen Jugg

no the smart play is

going middle

If I wanted double E I'd stay Kleia

Should I use Ravager even if I have the Thunderlord Legendary?

i dont feel much different between ravager and itf in keys

yeah im sure show of force will be amazing keksquad

the only potency slot you need is spear

SoF, that huge 0.3% dmg increase

#

if not less

cinder nova
#

It looked unimpressive, which is why I was thinking about jugg

#

For execute phase

for raiding ashen is better than spear even

cinder nova

Also M+ Muezalah with 4 buffs on a huge key

once you kill all 4

Still gotta bring him to 10%

which he should be during the buff phase

cinder nova

lolno

you push him to like 11%

#

sometimes finish him insta

cinder nova

Almost no group I've had ever pushed him enough for him to die after the fourth totem dropped.

That is, on anything 10+

#

Especially not on Tyr

#

lmao really

cinder nova
#

Yeah he was always floating around 14%

strong forum
#

oof

cinder nova
#

Not like it ever wiped us

strong forum
#

thats some bad dps

fossil summit
strong forum
#

i would play Bolster and Stormbolt instead of Double Time and Anger Management

cinder nova
#

^

#

Bolt is an extra hard CC for unkickable casts or kiting certain mobs

#

I personally go Bounding because the AOE increase isn't really worth it.

#

And the slow isn't enough to matter.

#

Especially on Necro weeks.

strong forum
#

ye same, but thats personal preferance

#

on plaguefall 3rd boss you will have leap for literally every add phase

#

where you need to break them out

cinder nova
#

Yeah

strong forum
#

so you can just leap + use the speed buff to break 3-4 spiders out insta

How much of a boost in DPS is AJ anyway?

Is it that big?

How do you guys feel with how our ST target dps is running AM compared to Bolster is currently ? Do we really gain that much of a gain to be fair, I mean yeah we get more Avatars in, but for the most part the glory of the old AM build from BFA is dead. This is in heroic Nathria for reference

Are you guys running Brutal Vitality in your 4th row Pelagos conduit or Stalwart Guardian ? I feel IP gets eaten so fast there is little reason to get a % of damage gain to it for raid anyway I should say. In M+ I can maybe still see it but even then IP is eaten so fast its a hard sell

i don't think its very good

@astral crystal Are you running Kleia however ?

im just running this because it's what i run for raid

wanted to see how it worked out in m+

#

works fine

open monolith

Hmmm, i guess since all of our potency conduits are trash, double endurance is pretty S M R T

astral crystal
#

could run the execute crit one i guess

open monolith
#

Meh. Double endurance feels smart

#

What is the the endurance 2nd row shitty power for pelagos?

astral crystal
#

gives you 10% ms after killing a mob

#

to be fair in raid you dont get much out of the phial CD anyway

#

different in m+, but i'll probably switch back to that when we get the last row of conduits

#

Hi guys, is there a way to dodge that bleeding frontal from those gargoyle sentinels in Sanguine Depths other than leaping away?

I tried to keep running by turning backwards but the add just chases me and I still get hit

modern brook
#

You can intervene to a ranged if it wont turn the add

#

But tbh you just gotta leap or eat it

#

Iirc the initial hit is blockable at least

#

Ans honestly the rest of the damage on him is avoidable so the only pull where hes an actual concern is the one after 3rd boss, assuming your healer is awake and your dps arent toddlers

placid oar
#

Ah thank u, yea I do leap whenever I can but a friend was telling me to run and it could be avoided but somehow the add just keeps chasing and the cast still went off. Got me wondering what I did wrong

modern brook
#

I dont think you can just run. Tbh I chalk it down to a healer mechanic and just try and remeber to revenge less when hes in a pull

for some

no need tbh

yeah true

but i saw sense doing it

and i think it helps for kiting

chilly brook
#

You'd get more threat from throw weapon

#

errrr

#

Heroic throw

nimble drift
#

I mean like

#

kiting along the edge of a pack while using thunderclap and revenge

#

etc.

#

hitting 2-3 mobs and being out of rnage of the other few, but ur TC is still hitting them

#

Idk it does feel kinda nice sometimes

chilly brook
#

When is that useful though if I'm kiting I don't want being hit being a remote possibility

nimble drift
#

eh I don't really agree

#

I kite like, 100% of the time. So I'm always out of range of a few mobs

chilly brook
nimble drift
#

but its not like HEROIC LEAP AWAY and then hit shit

#

I just am always sorta moving backwards

#

unless I got shield wall up

spare oracle
#

that kinda takes away from tanking doesnt it?

nimble drift
#

or if Im super limited on movement

#

Yeah but I take a lot less damage

#

and my damage is still great

#

so its no sweat

#

take pressure off my healer

chilly brook
#

doubt

nimble drift
#

I didn't like it at first but it feels good eventually when you notice you're taking less damage than you used to

#

when you'd stand still constantly

#

I'm not saying to do it or you have to constantly kite. I just noticed some top warriors doing it so I tried to impliment it more into my playstyle

#

and its had a noticable different on my survivability

#

imo

chilly brook
#

I mean like what keys are you even doing

spare oracle
#

well they are prob use to stupid high keys where they have to

nimble drift
#

im doing like 10-13

chilly brook
#

Cuz I seriously doubt you're pulling numbers like 3.8k overall doing that

#

Yea

#

No need in that range

#

At all

nimble drift
#

Yeah but 1. Its still helpful

#
  1. when it becomes necessary for higher keys, I'll already be used to it
chilly brook
#

And notice how when I have my abilities

#

The healer isn't even struggling

#

And the only thing that was dangerous there were the wasps flying around dotting people

#

This is the equivalent of "yea but I take less damage if I stack vers in my 15 weekly no leaver key" from 8.3

nimble drift
#

I mean

#

like I said

#

if I got shield wall up

#

I'm not kiting

#

usually the same with last stand

#

you sued both in this pull

#

so I prob wouldn't be moving too dramatically here either

spare oracle
#

what you think the best route to get a new weap would be for me, im 206 with a 184 weap lol

should i just go grind pvp?

nimble drift

if you desperately need a weapon get it from conquest

#

2 weeks and you get a 200ilvl piece that goes up 207, 213, and 220 with 1400, 1600, and 1800

hey mates. my friend is a prot warrior and he doesnt know how to kite well in shadowlands

#

is there any kind of guide that teaches how warriors should kite in +10 fortified and stuff?

#

its pretty easier with druids using mass root, typhon, ursol vortex, and stuff like that

#

but how to keep aggro without miss direction and tricks

jagged pier
#

pretty ez for us

#

shockwave, leap, intervene. fear, spear

#

also aggros ez charge in avatar rav demo revenge

#

but that being said should be kiting in a +10

#

thats like +13 upwards

#

if you don't have spear, u can keep aggro ?

#

yep

#

you still have avatar

demo shout with BV

if he cant keep aggro hes probably playing incorrectly
