Why won't i?

undone jacinth
#

kyrian conduits are mostly bad too

undone jacinth
visual drift
#

hm i guess i charge, use thunderclap then ravager

silent fog
#

Other reason, you can use it on the mobs of the 3rd boss of PF

#

help you clear one

undone jacinth
#

you should ravager before you charge

jagged pier
#

u rav before you charge

silent fog
#

for example

visual drift
#

ah okay

silent fog
undone jacinth
#

just wasting a gcd, threat and rage

silent fog
#

yeah, i just realized that...

undone jacinth
#

easy to fix

visual drift
#

Okay, make sense

silent fog
#

clearly

visual drift
#

Since i use bolster i'm thinking useing ravager for more thread since unstoppable force seems to be not in good use

jagged pier
#

you shoudlnt be UF

#

its trash

visual drift
#

so into fray or ravager

#

on the videos i take a look they use ravager random after pull :/

jagged pier
#

ITF for raiding rav for m+

undone jacinth
#

and now you know better than them!

visual drift
#

Okay. Thank you

#

Even if i reached ilv 20x now

Question guys

#

If Im talking really heavy damag

#

Should I still pop shield block

#

or just spam the hell out ignore pain?

jagged pier
#

if its phyiscal yes

ionic fern
#

Ignore Pain is NOT your primary mitigation tool

heavy sail
#

SB is your bread and butter

#

Not IP

jagged pier
#

SB is our MAIN MITIGATION

heavy sail
#

IP helps ease out the gaps and add a little layer of cushion

#

It’s not an actual mitigation tool

versed bough
#

Im still having a hard time when Shield block is up

#

ended up spamming IP in the process

heavy sail
#

Overlap them, kite, last stand/shield wall.

#

You got options bb

jagged pier
#

/ do u have logs?

heavy sail
#

That would be helpful

versed bough
#

wait

jagged pier
#

just saying your taking heavy damage isnt helpful

versed bough
#

I need to run logs right to record my run?

#

In m+

jagged pier
#

u need to run logs to log anything your doing

versed bough
#

well

#

fcked

#

Kinda hard to leap when the place is smol

heavy sail
#

Again I have no idea what you’re referring to.

jagged pier
#

^^

undone jacinth
#

tell us where the mobs touched you

versed bough
#

lets just say the Sanguine corridors

jagged pier
#

theres a lot of ground effects and traps etc

versed bough
#

Im not fast enuf to turn the cammeras

jagged pier
#

but cant tell if you standing in them as no logs

strong forum
#

Only time you kite in sanguine corridors is to leap away from the gargoyle smash and to get away from the shadow claw cunts

#

🤔

#

Everything else is pretty free

versed bough
#

well

#

You really cant give a thorough guide if I cant give logs

#

I'll just proceed to another question

heavy sail
#

Sure

versed bough
#

Can I Macro target mouseover and at cursor at the same time?

undone jacinth
#

wut

strong forum
#

Yes, it'll prio whatever comes first in the macro, but what do you want to mouseover and that can be aimed at cursor

versed bough
#

Yes

strong forum
#

Yes but what

versed bough
#

Yes

heavy sail
versed bough
#

HAHA

#

kidding

#

Leap

strong forum
#

Like, if it's for heroic leap the mouse over does nothing

versed bough
#

oh okay

heavy sail
#

The mouse over bit is pointless

golden pollen
#

Any one know why they took out iron maiden conduit?

heavy sail
#

Because it’s not targeted

strong forum
#

Cuz fuck you that's why cute guy

#

:(

undone jacinth
#

because it was actually good

jagged pier
strong forum
#

Literally just cuz fuck you

undone jacinth
#

and Prot doesn’t get good

versed bough
#

Whats with the iron maiden conduit?

strong forum

Would've been our best conduit

In m+

Would've been a feel good conduit

undone jacinth

heavy sail

Our conduits are cheeks man

undone jacinth

heavy sail

Pure cheeks

PRot war is squishy

heavy sail
strong forum
#

Not if I play it hippo

sweet summit
#

It was like 12% or 8% at max rank? I dont really remember

golden pollen
#

Is that the only conduit that they removed? Did other class got same treatment?

strong forum
#

Somewhere around 10% I think

heavy sail
#

12% is pretty nutty

#

That’s a significant power boost just for a conduit slot

versed bough
#

How does it fell to tank as a Venthyr in m=?

#

m+

sweet summit

It got replaced by fueled by voilence

Looking forward to the dungeon nerf tmrw tho

I dont like that boss

I like mobs that leap around

Cuz I can make em bounce back

golden pollen
#

I don't like the gauntlet before the boss

strong forum
#

Multiple times

golden pollen

Feels annoying to go thru it

strong forum
#

Ye not a single tank likes those packs

sweet summit
#

FUCK jumpyboys

strong forum
#

Besides bear

golden pollen
#

I just can't imagine a dk doing that shit on a necrotic week as well

heavy sail
#

I like it because it’s challenging

#

Though that’s not a very good reason innit

strong forum
#

Idk it's not a challenge

#

Just fucking unfun

#

Just go slow, go pack by pack

#

And your healer can't drink

sweet summit

Gauntlet is poggers as arms/fury just condemn go brrr

#

Until sub 80

#

Sadge

golden pollen

I wonder if there is gonna be more tuning after the week

strong forum
#

Absolutely

heavy sail

I enjoy moments when shit is hectic.

Youve seen the INSANE amount of NW nerfs

Oh God no

jagged pier
#

KSM gunna ez now that mount will be everywhere

golden pollen
#

Why nerf mist

strong forum
#

Mists cuz bugs

heavy sail
#

Still surprised that DoS completely dodged tuning pass

golden pollen
#

Cause they gave dos more time a while ago

#

Lol

sweet summit
#

DoS is fine imo. Just tight

#

Eh

#

Maybe remove bonestrike

golden pollen
#

I think they should remove the mini boss before last boss of spire

#

Fuck 3 shadow of zul back to back

heavy sail
#

Lol

golden pollen
#

Or dont let them get buffed

#

Spire is okay until that part

strong forum
#

Well they nerfed those 3

#

Just today

heavy sail
#

Pretty heavily iirc

strong forum
#

The dmg taken increase is nerfed by 50%

#

And they don't get affected by certain affixes

#

And that 3sec death period is changed

golden pollen
#

Which affix were they affected by

rapid tide
#

It's definitely simpler now.
3rd one still gonna be really nasty on 18+ Fort

strong forum
#

Sanguine, spiteful and... Smth Smth

ionic fern
#

Wasn't it also bolstering? SInce if you pulled too fast it bolstered the new one?

heavy sail
#

Yep

golden pollen
#

Oh God I hope not

heavy sail
#

Pretty sure anyway

golden pollen
#

Can't wait till the weekend to get runs in to feel the nerfs

strong forum
#

It'll be tyr, so mobs will be alot easier on you as a tank

#

Than currently

#

So keep that in mind when doing feelycraft

golden pollen
#

What's next week affix?bolster again?

#

Well I mean after today reset

heavy sail

Bolster, necrotic, tyrannical

trees are so fucking op this season

heavy sail

Tyrannical + Necrotic is very much not poggers though

#

1 minute cooldown on it is nuts @astral crystal

#

Like actual insanity

astral crystal
#

yeah you have it up for every bad pack

strong forum
#

Trees were always op

#

It's just in bfa

golden pollen

There's only one fight I have issue with for necrotic, stupid patchwork boss in top

strong forum
#

You

#

Didnt

Need

#

Them

#

:)

golden pollen
#

Hard to drop stack with those adds

astral crystal
#

that boss does a lot of shit that causes him to stop attacking

steady spruce
#

You can't use tree insinde buildings right? making it useless in dungeons like SD

steady spruce
#

dunno i read that on reddit

gaunt dawn
#

probably competitivewow

#

where all the great minds meet

#

and share their recipes for tap water

sweet summit
#

:))

steady spruce
#

i read you couldn't use them in NW 3rd boss room

#

might have misinterpreted that

sweet summit
#

That room is just bugged with pet taunts

#

Treants/earthele wouldnt taunt

#

Idk if its fixed

steady spruce
#

oh allright

strong forum
#

Cuz the necropolis is shitty coded

#

The floor isn't exactly floor

#

So pets are majorly fucked therr

#

And ground effects

#

In beta pets would never move

#

You wouldn't be able to heroic leap there, cuz floor didn't register was usable surface, but you could stand on it

amber herald
#

you guys seen the m+ nerfs? pretty big

steady spruce
#

i'm curious if the miniboss nw nerf will change routes

hazy fern
#

Link the nerf please that sounds exciting

amber herald
hazy fern
#

I love doing dungeons I just hate how stupid hard they are

amber herald
#

I like that you can keep the items after death now, but idk seems very heavy handed

valid zodiac
#

To be honest for NW that weapon change is the only thing that was needed.

amber herald
#

That's what I was thinking, both that and the nerfs seem like it'll be too easy

steady spruce
#

Yup best change in the tuning

amber herald
#

having to brick the key because 1 dps died was shit

steady spruce
#

seems more like a bug fix than a tuning tbh

#

for the weapons

valid zodiac
#

I think they were afraid of the upcoming week's participation with the Bolstering and Necrotic lol

steady spruce
#

Magrave and Tarvold nerf are very welcome, not sure about SD first boss

#

Wow corpse collector and Harvester health reduced by 30% huge

amber herald
#

was SD first boss a problem boss?

steady spruce
#

on tyrannical he could be yes

amber herald
#

I know on 15< keys people were running 80yds away for severing lol

hazy fern
#

Nerf DoS first couple of mobs too please

steady spruce
#

All the necropolis pack has been heavily nerfed that's great

#

But yeah weird that DOS trashmob excaped the nerf hammer

orchid frigate
#

what i dont like with DoS is that mob that beams people off the platform

#

hard to see sometimes where he's aiming with all going on 😦

steady spruce
#

First NW Boss adds been nerfed too, didn't feel necessary but still feels great

#

Agreed, hard to see where he's looking at

#

His Tank-bursting cast is still a problem

hazy fern
#

No reason for me to die while I’m building Agro on mobs smh ffs

orchid frigate
#

😦

sterile moss
#

I'm happy to see the longer cast times for frostbolt volley lol

#

maybe we can actually get interrupts in time now

steady spruce
#

dunno i just make sure they are hard cc

#

Waiting for the trap/shackles/repentance before pulling

sterile moss
#

from my experience I can't expect those in the Amarth fight though

#

we got an extra .5 seconds now 😛

steady spruce
#

you can with a good group

#

but if not just make sure to bring the boss and other adds on the mage

sterile moss
#

mages*

hazy fern
#

Another thing is the lack of loot from raiding I clear entire heroic raid for only on piece upgrade and a 213 trash in vault kinda under rewarding to me

steady spruce
#

213 Loot feels bad tbh

#

When you get 226 in vault

sterile moss
#

by now I've just accepted that fact that gear comes from the vault

#

lol

#

unless you mythic raid or pvp

steady spruce
#

But i don't really like raids that much, too many mechanics on retail for me.

I wanna dps, not stand in puddles

sterile moss
#

the annoying thing for me is that raid success hinges on everyone else's performance while you and co-tank mindlessly taunt swap

#

only a couple fights are actually interesting for tanks I feel

orchid frigate
#

raid tanking is a bit boring

sterile moss
#

yeah

orchid frigate
#

thats why i dps in raids and tank (kite) in m+

steady spruce
#

Yeah M+ bosses are more interesting than most raid bosses as tank

#

Actually i haven't tanked enough raid bosses to make that kind of statement ^^

hazy fern
#

They all seem fine to me. It’s the team work and strategy as a whole that appeals to me

polar radish
#

imagine a raid version of gorechop

steady spruce
#

Classic ruined my team spirit i guess ahaha

#

just want to parse as a dumbass

#

need to change that

finite prairie
#

Question about halls
What do you guys do at the ledge with the hunter pack directly under it? Jump or stairs/ramp? With spiteful and volcanic this week jumping down was rough because we had no room to move. Ramp was awkward with the spiteful spawn.

signal plover
#

parsing in classic is the climax of player stupidity

sterile moss
finite prairie
#

That makes sense

orchid frigate
#

this working from home takes it's toll on my ears from constantly wearing a headset

Hey guys, im using signet on my offspec prot during M+ just for more dmg. But can you parry/dodge as usual during bladestorm?

uneven mason

jagged pier

it would be if they werent high magic damage

or you didnt kite all the time

uneven mason
#

I don't kite, altho I'm not pushing +20s either

#

But I don't think in general

midnight jetty

nah this is just for mythic raiding

uneven mason

people should be basing their stat points

mainswapping to help guild out

Man it's hard trying to find good windwalkers

jagged pier
#

low last stand useage and you only block 55% of melees against you should work on using sb more effeicently

#

but thats at a quick look

strong forum
#

Malachi you absolute need to use more shield Slams

#

You cast only 6 shield slams per minute

jagged pier
#

damage looks really low esepically with TL as well

strong forum
#

~10 is recommended

#

And TC should be around 8 cpm

#

Yours is at 5

#

So you're legit missing like 40% of possible rage gain

#

Which in turn is then a dps and survival loss

#

And youre overcapping rage alot

#

Almost 10% of the rage you gained you overcapped

#

All those things play into why your dps is so low aswell

tardy sequoia
#

so i have low shield slam and low thunder clap usage

strong forum
#

Absolutely

#

And you overcap alot of rage

#

Those 3 points alone, will improve your gameplay alot

tardy sequoia
#

and i felt that i was starving for rage

#

like can't even cast IP

@strong forum to senpai, when I do my opener, or there are moments when I'm really high on rage

Use more IP

Okey

While spamming revenge

Yes sir

tardy sequoia

Unless target is under 20

Not if you overcap on rage

#

TC and SS is for rage gain

#

Revenge is for damage

tardy sequoia

i always were using shield block

neat dirge

TC gives 5 rage

And with the thunderlord legendary

#

It's even more rage

#

Cuz booming voice

strong forum
#

You really should monitor your buttons better

#

And your rage bar

uneven mason

TC is ugh

neat dirge
#

I recommend using a weak aura

tardy sequoia
#

how can I improve?

neat dirge
#

If u already arnt

uneven mason

saying its for damage is like saying ignore pain is a survival CD

I like Sense WA

neat dirge
#

I use luxthros WA but modified a bit

undone jacinth
#

You just aren’t casting your spells... you don’t ravager before pull or sometimes you don’t ravager at all, you don’t spear of bastion or avatar on pull and do it a bit randomly... you clap more than you shield slam and you randomly cast battle shout sometimes, you used 11 last stands in 50minutes @tardy sequoia

neat dirge
#

To my own liking

tardy sequoia
#

I am using luxthos

#

weakaura

covert monolith

Luxthros WA doesn't show execute

Which is weird

#

For prot

sweet summit

Dont need to

i combine ravager and SoB sometimes

It's a raw spender

Easier for me to know when I can do it

undone jacinth

it’s not about combining, it’s just about using

undone jacinth
#

you didn’t cast your first ravager til a few minutes in to the dungeon from what I saw

tardy sequoia
#

it's always on cooldown

strong forum
#

@tardy sequoia aim to use spear, avatar, ravager, shield slam and thunderclap on cooldown

#

You should have almost 50 spear uses in 49minutes

#

Maybe around 40

jagged pier

your first avatar was 55 seconds into the dungeon thats a cast right there you missed

Low dps

I usually do the double pull to kite

Shouldnt feel like paper in a 12 with 209

At all

sweet summit
#

what pull?

tardy sequoia
#

that's why i'm here

strong forum
#

Low dps a huge factor in feeling weak

undone jacinth

doesn’t help that your healer can’t seem to heal pride

@tardy sequoia maybe check out "sense-nurfed" on YouTube, I also have like 3 vods up on Youtube of current keys

strong forum

Shield slam

And ravager

jagged pier

again you also need to pay attention to SB usage looks like you spam it too much

steady spruce

btw do you demo shout on opening or do you use SS + another spell before that?

tardy sequoia

i spam too much SB?

Have to tease the SB button a bit

If you have alot of rage, you can also cover a few globals with IP instead

dont i overuse IP?

i feel like i'm always starving

strong forum

Gotta find a healthy balance

#

You're starving because you don't generate enough

hazy fern
#

So I should use SB before a melee right lol?

strong forum

Yes

But sometimes 1 or 2 melee hits are fine to take without SB up

You can greed it a bit if you're more experienced

Ignore pain on magic damage ?

where do i spend my rage incorrectly? revenge?

or maybe ONLY not generating enough

Experience

tardy sequoia

like you said

strong forum

Is what you need

You're missing like 40-50% rage

In Generation

Once you got that down, you will find more globals to press more revenges

And ignore pain

You gotta find a healthy balance with rage usage

There is no blanket answer

@tardy sequoia think of your abillitys as Priority

I can only tell you, look more at your buttons and rage bar

really i read guides on Icyveins, wowhead and look vids on youtube

but i'm really slow at pressing buttons then

neat dirge
#

Highest priority is your rage meter

It should never be full

#

2nd highest priority is your offensive cooldown

tardy sequoia

also there's a lot going on on screen

Then it should be shieldslam

Because it's so tempting

P sure its cause the mastery is harder to meet the requirements for as a tank? And the other options are stinky

there's the 3 min cd iirc

@strong forum can swapping to the Wall improving surv a bit or it's just placebo and i should continue to stick with thunderlord?

TW is definetly a survivability boost over TL

Huge

If you got uptime you can get it down to like a minute or so CD

It's nuts

its a boost but it will not make or break anything most of your survivability comes from play not gear or stats @tardy sequoia

yeah with conduit and AM I have wall at 1min for raiding and 1:40ish for M+

Honestly it's the rage on ss that makes it such a good survival boost the silly sw cooldown is icing

yup

+5 rage per SS

big stronk

come on. TL gives big rage

modern brook

Tlord gives it in bursts though and frankly were flush with cds that give rage

cinder nova
#

Not enough to outpace TW iirc

tardy sequoia
modern brook
#

Wall gives us more rotational gains

#

Which means more rotational ips

cinder nova
#

Also yeah, bursts of rage is nice, but the steady flow is stronger

sick sentinel
#

i've already maxed TL and i have 1500 SA

cinder nova
#

It improves our baseline

sick sentinel
#

i got rank 1 TW, so i can probably do at least 1 or 2 TW ranks this wwek

modern brook
#

I just dumped all my ash into rank 3 sephuz for pvp lol

sick sentinel

already have the next upgrade crafted piece in inventory

tardy sequoia

really it's just something to make rotation and rage gain a bit smoother

so that surv it's a little less of an issue

Hi guys, for M+ tanking. Is it still ideal to follow the ilvl > secondary stat rule even for neck and rings?

I’m equipping a ilvl 207 neck with high haste over my 211 mastery with socket neck with no haste. And I’m also using a 210 haste ring instead of a 226 Crit ring with no haste.

uneven mason
#

16 ilvls is a lot of stats to give up

#

and your 211 with a haste gem would prob win

placid oar
#

Ahh

uneven mason
#

none of our stats are bad

placid oar
#

I thought the higher haste would be better

#

Thanks a lot Ikarikaze

uneven mason
#

It might be close, but 16 ilvls is a really big stretc

placid oar
#

Cos if I equipped all my highest ilvl gear my haste will drop to 13% instead of 23%

#

I see

#

Can you kindly share the general rule where it is actually alright to forgo ilvl for secondary stats?

dawn imp
uneven mason
#

on rings/necks I'd say 10 would be a fair amount if you're talking high haste vs 0 haste.

#

but socket is worth a solid chunk of ilvl

placid oar
#

I see, thanks again!

uneven mason
#

its not going to make or break you

#

but hows your effective SB uptime?

So for my chest, do I still equip a 7 ilvl higher chest or the one with better secondary?
