How's reprisal feeling for folks?
I'm probably going with Anger Management. Because Avatar will be strong in M+ with the increased damage, free Revenges and BSC, and because without The Wall I want a means to reduce the CD on Shield Wall.
If you got a couple of high mastery pumpers (Fire Mage, Boomkin, UDK) then yeah it's great for your raid.
You lose damage otherwise.
Having to force myself not to SB after charging
Feels turgid and veiny
All good things
you should still sb after charge
What? Why would you for 4s?
Block extends, it doesn't overwrite
Max 18s
also avoids capping, gonna get a lotttttttt of rage on some pulls
it doesnt eat a cast of sb stored does it?
would be shit if it did
That said, The first thing I'd do after Charge is Revenge, for threat
I was under the assumption that it didn't full extend, but either way I figured throwing the extra rage into an Ignore Pain would be more useful for the first few seconds
for new conduits that drop
Nah you want threat
Can it really extend to 18s though?
is +15 mythic the highest ilevel for them
Is Torghast broken still?
hotfixed
True
just did one 10m ago
Also, my SB still seems to be 6s unless it's a tooltip area on time remaining after charging or intervening
People swapping to Safeguard conduit?
just dont tell bliz
Look at your buffs
I did look at my buffs, 6s lol. Same for you guys?
I'm going to take this silence as everyone rushing to test
yep same for me
nobody tell papa blizz
So if we intervene and charge instantly we only lose a revenge! Proc?
Well boys, Blizzard only needs to know that it's still 4.
Tomorrow it’ll be 2 seconds

what's a good % of Shieldblock uptime in dungeons with Reprisal?
200%
i saw a chinese feller with 210%
New meta tank?
well I'm slacking HARD then
nah DH still the only class that can cast meta afaik
Should I just be intervening on CD?
Wouldn't SB uptime in a dungeon be highly dependent on a bunch of factors? How much you're kiting, certain bosses, etc.
What are thoughts on Barghast's leash?
nope
Overshadowed by other trinkets IMO
Has anyone made a Banner CD announce WA akin to these Combust ones you see mages use? Working on one myself but im pretty smooth brain
I should be fine running SLH and SMH, right?
sry i almost always assume ppl ask about effective uptime
Scale is very nice to have
not actual buff uptime
@urban bane If you find one, please let me know!
so whats the best key level to farm scale on rn?
What's SMH?
Spare Meat Hook
Good for weekly chest and items. People with high rio will wanna join for the dps trink
Should be ez enough
pugs can definitely fuck up a DOS tyr
Oooh, yeah I would use that over Barghast tbh, I have Barghast but never used It
Rog, thanks alot! I have been trying to get a Scale from DoS just havent been lucky.
I use Dreadfire Vessel with either SLH or Sun King cheat death trinket
So ive done several dungeons with new reprisal and both ravager and unstoppable force, and I'm averaging 3.8k with ravager and 4k with unstoppable and I'm trying to utalize both as much as I can.
Are you talking about raiding or M+ though?
Raiding
Maybe assumes different pull-sizes
Whats the go to raid legendary now?
Probably wall still
definitely wall
is viscera of coalesced hatred alright? or does it suck?
cool, ty
what do you get for finishing the twisting corridor
i'm sure it's not a good thing, but when i did torghast some weeks ago, they invited me and they are like "oh i know him, actual insane player"
but we didn't wipe or i get booted or nothing
scale from de other side, anima from spires is what im using both from dungeons
i can't say about raid trinkets and pvp trinkets for Pwar is probably omegalul
Sunking cheat death is hella nice
Yeah ok, I'd say just steer away from Barghast atm, I've never had a use for It yet, although I'm only 7/10 atm
i only want the one from blue guy or the dancer i guess
Hey guys which fights on mythic are you gonna run reprisal?
Huntsman and maybe sludgefist
i was thinking council too
I was thinking that aswell, but I don't see myself charging too much idk
when im tanking the off boss i can charge a few times if i wanted to
Maybe but you can just intervene the other tank while they arent tanking/standing next to you and utilize it that way
True, that could work
id intervene a dps
Either way
Yeah, Forgot we are just talkin gabout Sludge and council as of right now.
I wouldnt intervene on Sludge
at least to a tank
idk how you would get use out of reprisal ever on sludge
I'd say on Sludge, don't use Intervene. You just charge after he does his stomp
But then again, you won't get as much use of It since you're chained to your co-tank
And he only stomps twice per pillar
Necrochads: thoughts on Emeni vs Bonesmith for raid?
Thinking the undeath ability might be good for raid prog
Only on pull and charge back to him after he stomps
yeah the opportunity cost is the wall though
Yeah true, I think during Sludge the wall would be better to have now that I've thought more about It
Reprisal could have a lot of worth on Council, Shriek when you're not tanking, and huntsman from my 10 minutes of thinking about It
slg too
Maybe yeah, haven't ran Into them on mythic yet though so dunno how It Is on that fight yet
I would think also has value on hungering
is gluttonous spike bad for tanking? wasn't sure about the healing it provided, if it was useful at all.
I tried It, I thought the healing you recieved was minimal, I reckon you'd get more out of another trinket
i figured, i know its bad for DPS just wasn't sure if it had a use as prot, was hoping it did.
leech trinkets are never worth it
avg overall healing for a dungeon is like 5% for me with it with a 200ilvl trinket
so ehh
i personally liked the bandage one from bfa, kings rest, giga absorb
real talk tho: reprisal is just... chef's kiss
spike isn't bad
I'm already sad for next expansion when I lose this
like in tol dagor on wolf boss you could just pop it and negate the damage of the aoe los shiv throw thing
Is Safeguard worth using now in M+ w/Reprisal?
Can confirm, shield block gets extended If you're using reprisal If anyone was curious
Safeguard has no relation with Reprisal. You could have used it before Reprisal. All it is, is a damage reduction for your intervene target, so it was always good for helping them live something.
did trinkets get rebalanced or no, i thought i read ptr they were all buffed
shuib is noob alert
100%
Is that the max ilvl night fae warrior?
I was there
doesn't even know necrolord is the omega bis now, sadge
shuib #1 NA
Should BSC be a decent dmg boost over Booming with the swap to Reprisal?
Thanks!
Legs mate, big stats
Legs unless you do Mythic Stone legion
just heroic stone legion 😢
Wait. I do mythic stone legion, does that mean I grab boots?
You can get 233 Legs from Stone legion
Whelp. Good thing I have shit boots.
Do we swap talents if we go reprisal? Is best served cold now decent for it?
Thank you! ❤️
Ravagers utility in M+ is worth more than ITF in my opinion
^
Raid it probly better to use ITF as its always been
^
is NF about the same single target as venthyr?
I know you've done both now
@coarse kestrel no its worse ST
@hearty delta supposedly yes ^.^ after u banner, they can go to africa i believe
thank you
any prot still kyrian, are you using show of force conduit, or safeguard now with reprisal?
NF overall damage though is great ^.^ esp with korayn
safeguard is potentcy?
man i dont even remember @_@
Cant go to africa during lockdown Pika
@atomic flicker My row boat will show you!
What is the range on this banner I hope its atleast 6ft
Still hanging on the edge of can I stand losing Phial, and the defensive bonuses of Kyrian myself. Me likey the damage of NFae though 🙂
Really liking reprisal
If you take reprisal and bolster you can achieve a 100% shield block uptime and watch Netflix while tanking
Lol
Still looking for a WA that tracks the Intervene/Charge procs of Reprisal, I am thinking I will just make one
@waxen cradle see thats the reason I go kyrian last on my Cov world tour 🙂 I don't want to get attached to it and then feel the loss 😄 I started with one of the worst covs, so now i feel nothing
@patent osprey Dude I so wish I had 😦
If you make something good send it to me I'm too lazy to make WA
I switched to Necrolord in preparation of this patch. The soulbinds just feel super underwhelming
Has anyone else jumped ship to Necrolord?
waiting for people like yourself to tell me if it's any good 
Do we have a haste cap, or are we just going to the moon?
MOOOOOON
Going to after raid on thursday
There is diminishing returns but its up there
Not sure what you mean. Any SB duration tracker should already include it
I went night fae Instead
I think he means to track intervene and charge?
im using a tellmewhen that highlights them when they come back up
Oh, I like this one, which includes those: https://wago.io/Afenar_Warrior
Boo get on the necrotrain choo choo
What's the PPM on Niya's anime mastery thing
Do you lose up-time by spamming shield block or does the buff stack?
Stacks up to 18 seconds I believe
yeah you can't really waste it unless you try really hard to
it goes higher. there really isnt a cap
two shield block + bolster gets you to like 25 seconds
Do you keep 25s though
does torghast give soul ash? or broke
got fixed, just completed
There is a cap of 18s, only bolster let's you go past it
Is anyone considering or going necrolord on their prot warrior since the changes?
Anyone have trinket recommendations for mythic + this week?
haste>vers>mastery>>>>>crit
@opaque moss Join the Necrotrain
Bolstering and Tyrannical, take defensive trinkets or still go dps/aoe trinkets?
@surreal monolith sigh but why is most tank gear with mastery. Should i change loot prio to something else?
a lot of people have pvp
oops, pvp gear*
they pvp a lot to get more vers gear
but I mean ilvl > everything unless it's a neck or rings
mastery isn't completely trash, vers is just better
ok il start getting into rgb. thanks a lot
194 warrior alt, wanting to try some tanking; worth swapping venthyr to necro, or is it kinda up in air. I see the pin still recommending kyrian and NF for keys. but necro buff still seems pretty unknown. Who got keys already as necro today?
never :y
it just takes coordination and the right group comp to get the most benefit from it, I personally wouldn't switch if you dps a lot
hey all, dumb question i'm sure has been asked a dozen times. Is it worth taking double time to get more uses from the reprisal legendary in m+? losing the on-demand stun/kick from storm bolt feels bad.
Just leveled a fresh 60 warrior. Do the changes to reprisal make it worth crafting first?
Hey guys, which of the crafteable pieces would you say is better for reprisal to go with?
Normally its the piece that gives the most stats
Legs most likely, unless your boots are better then your currently equipped legs
just saw the update on the reprisal leggo... Glad I didn't upgrade my thunderlord from the base 190 ilvl lmao
rip i maxed out my wall like 2 weeks ago and now i have to farm dust again T_T
legendary looks really good tho
Same but with Thunderlord 😭
i mean is that money down the drain or are they panning like 2 legenadry equip at some point 😏
5k+ for ilvl 235 right
NAH 2 leggo would be too op
That's 4 weeks of farming if get table missions and win
the wall + unbreakable would be OP as heck on big pulls in m+
well, for my guildie groups cuz they stand on all the possible shit there is to stand on...
so is it worth running reprisal and best served cold?
Ya I was wondering about the talent selection using reprisal
I wonder if it would synergize well with best served cold and heavy repercussions
BSc and AM
good thing i didn't upgrade deathmaker for fury tho lol
does eu and na have the same torghast wings every week?
the wall
Reprisal now
I still think the wall is better for raid
with the new patch
so for combination I think the wall stronger ^.^
there is a pinned message
i feel like reprisal will make threat easier in m+
this one
reprisla grants free SB though
like they also boosted thunder clap now
respirsal is good no doubt
but if I had to choose 1 legendary for raid and mythic plus
as if you did both then the wall :)
well its more intresting thats for sure
Reprisal if just m+
I feel like it would be a super fun leggo
Even if you don't go over the top with charging and intervening mid fight it'll be great in m+ just for the snap defense and threat
gonna have to give it a try
will take a while till i have it rank 4 T_T
Anyone know why Denathrius goes taunt immune?
I haven't tried reprisal yet in high m+ but I do worry it will make me not have SW up enough at high keys
AM relies on using rage to get SW back up... but in a relatively tight kite meta... it may not be up enough
Does charge with reprisal generate an additional 20 rage (40 total) or just 20?
But does anyone know why denathrius goes taunt immune?
the problem with reprisal in raid put wars in a bad habit or randomly moving the boss to charge
in instance u don't have to move
Lol idk what raid leader would put up with that
Reprisal on some raid fights would be so bad
On others it would be great (like sire)
even on sire though
You can use intervene too, not just charge
the boss doesn't walk it teleports
yeah but if you only intervene u lose half the value
just saying
the wall is just more consistent
P3 you charge and taunt together a lot
reprisal is a bit cheesy
if my tank in raid kept making sire teleport I'd be pissed as melee
might even be bad with draven ventyr :X
nah
I mean if you’re tanking the boss don’t run from him just for a free shield block
The value is getting SB when you swap
stand still for 4s, leap and charge back if you really wanna try and be fancy
I'm probably about to have to find out 😦
so is AM+UF better option for AOE now over ravager? or at least similar?
i can agree that moving random in raids might we akward lol
If you can set up your charge cd to line up with taunt swaps you’d get a ton of value from it
Quick question for us kids. Still bugged at 6sec reprisal or hotfixed yet?
If you’re trying to walk the boss to get uptime on reprisal you’re trolling
well u can still intervene i guess to a melee
still 6sec
but even if u leap and charge back he might still move from position, no ?
bosses will move if you leap and charge, yes
Weird. Just saw hotfixes for today and it aint fixed. If it remains might be worth goofing around in m+ afterall.
but it's what, 30 seconds uptime with no breaks if you charge, block, block, intervene, block?
Which is the average of a m+ pack. So yes it makes sense
how long are boss swaps in this expac?
Reprisal in raid is just trolling. Be real :p
😦 I never built the wall then all my guild tanks lefffft
any fight where you're tanks spread and swap it's usable, same with add fights
your*
It's encounter dependent, The Wall and Reprisal both have use cases
I wouldn't touch it on sludge
still on sludge u can charge in after his stomp
ooh yeah, good point
You can definitely use it on a lot of the early bosses
Yeah you could 100% play around new reprisal to get good value of the block uptime
Some bosses it will be troll though
The last 3 are really the ones where it'd be dicey
Not all of them tho
I wouldn't use it on Huntsman, but it'd be fantastic on artificer and hungering
u can use it if the boss uses a move u know he won't move from his position spot maybe
Until the bosses move like spastics and any semi-logical melee will tell you to f off
otherwise it might confuse the raid lol
Yeah, a lot of times on huntsman he's rooted while casting
You can just walk to charge range before your taunt swaps
im looking at logs, not alot of prots went necro it seems?
While your cotank is tanking
slam/leap/spincharge will put you about halfway through a second GCD, so you're not missing a lot
Prot warrior was world first
Pretty sure its explained why in the pins
You can't macro target facing can you?
it just seems like the people who did went necro isnt even buffing the boomies/mages/dks
pff am just staying Ventyr because i like it
am happy with the 10% buff we got
Yeah, Eva, I think a lot of people overhyped Necro, it'll probably be good for high end guilds, but I can't imagine like your average CE guild using the banner incredibly effectively
Its only good for a really coordinated group
Dont see why waste personal gain for any other moment
The channeled DR is useful
hey guys, whats the alternative option for ravager? im only doing m+ and i really hate the playstyle 😩
Its why i gave up the meme life and went kyrian after goofing with necro
Fleshcraft is clanky as fuck
both of the other 2 talents are decent, use the one you want really
into the fray and unstoppable force are the alternatives
UF could be really good after TC buff, jury's still out
Tough to give up the snap threat of ravager+spear with the kiting meta
real question here: is shadow oil and phantom fire still better dps after the buff than stone/str?
because it simmed pretty close for me before
i'd prolly run into the fray, but alot of people think unstoppable is fun
i miss the old playstyle with thunderclap. i think UF could be a good option? specially on fort. weeks with thunderlord lego
yeah could make it work i think
the next question is, is AM now the go to? i see synergy between UF and AM
probably not, if you go thunderlords instead of a defensive lego, go bolster
Reprisal with proper usage*
yeah thunderlords ass in ST
Reprisal on legs?
Wrong assumption :D
boots better long-term if youre full clearing mythic raid, legs better now unless you have good legs
ideally on legs, but if your legs are like 226 and your feet are 200, might be worth crafting feet if so
people get real hung up on the difference between slots but it's super minor and pretty well balanced overall
but legs better ye
already got Stompers on feet
dont wanna have to make another one when we get 2 leggos
9.1 is probably gonna have you upgrading them, new bases and more soul ash, so i wouldnt worry about that right now
I wouldn't base Leggo slots on this tiers itemization but that's just me
talent changes with reprisal?
@rugged yoke if i swap from thunderlord to the wall in tyranical weeks would u go AM insteat of Bolster?
i think i'd only go AM with reprisal
alright 🙂 thanks guys
but if you have the legos, try out the different combinations why not
yeah im sitting on 4k soulash atm... so question is, if im go the wall max rank or test reprisal. but i think the wall is the stronger option.
Do you do M+ or raid more?
im only doing m+
Reprisal
theres also the options of crafting both rank 2, and upgrading the one you like
this patch is going to stay awhile, and both are gonna find use
yeah but i think, reprisal will lack on tyranical weeks
with the 20% thunderclap buff is unstoppable force comparable to ravager?
Nah, still good for tyrannical
No
I think the utility of Ravager is too good to pass up.
Last I heard, people were still unsure as far as damage was concerned
Rage gen is still lower
Definitely a better option than it was before but I personally don't like UF in the new rotation
Unstoppable force is kinda built around the premise that you're using Booming Voice and Thunderlord. It's not even particularly good if you are using those things, so it's flat out weaker if you aren't.
^
I don't know that that's true, but you do you
So are The Neckbeards our best covenant choice now?
i mean theres alot of synergy pieces with unstoppable force, i think its fair to say its balanced around using them all
if it wasn't, surely using those pieces would put it over the top
No. At best, the necrolord buff brings them up to being roughly competitive if you have the co-ordination to use the banner buff properly
especially considering everyones using booming voice by default
Well the issue before was that UF wasn't balanced at all, it was just bad
So Kyrian is still the go too
Any of them work; choose whichever you want
But the TC buff has a clear impact on UFs strength and we don't know how big that impact is yet
ill give em a shot worst case scenario i switch back
Any upcoming changes that seem large for raiding and m+?
i just realized door of shadows is also kinda awesome with reprisal if leap is on cd
eternal stats
any good intervene + banner macro?
reprisal seems too good to be true tbh
I need to slam my boomkin with banner
also kinda mad cause now i gotta farm for yet another lego
I wish I could refund my lego to be honest.
for real
hopefully they give us a way to farm soul ash faster/more efficiently soon
i have a 235 TL and Wall
and yeah refund would be nice lol
TL is going into the bin in a few hours, no regrets
by the time they do that we already have it lol
Put it in the bank, not the bin. If we all stop using it they might buff it in 9.1
for real
plus TL is still decent in Mythics run it atleast until you get reprisal and over all i think the wall out performs reprisal in certain raid fights
I'm very tempted to craft Seismic Reverberation for M+ when I do keys below 14
Oh definitely; The Wall is definitely the play in many Raid fights. There simply aren't that many Raid fight where you need to have Reprisal's uptime, due to tank swapping mechanics.
but in Mythic plus tho Reprisal gonna do work
Ansolutely
Are we like the only class that have a legendary now thats better ? XD or am i missing somthing
no i think you are correct
Is the 10% dmg buff and TC buff noticeable in M+? Or very minor overall?
nothing minor about a 10% damage buff
generating threat will be easier now
Ive personally taken notice of the dps increase
Lol i was already used to using aoe taunt on packs were i was like: ok i will def. Lose aggro here
just when we get used to a play style blizzard over here like "they are getting too good lets change things up and disguise it as a buff"
looks like double up id gonna be better than storm bolt
Idk about that, if your dps knows how to intrupt/stun sure but i think i stick with storm bolt x’)
yeah but the uptime on the SB
COUNCIL DOWN FUCK FINALLY
🇬 🇿
the real dark souls starts here
level 1 complete
only like 180 pulls and almost a guild meltdown lol
post patch kills be like
So with Reprisal we're running AM now right?
yeah
Still Ravager?
Anger Management, Ravager, Best Served Cold would seem to be the core talents for the nuReprisal
You can probably go ITF instead of Ravager if you are Night Fae, maybe Kyrian or Necrolord too
I go ITF for raids
BSC better for single too?
I wouldn't use nuReprisal for purely ST raid fights; stick with The Wall there
i mean with reprisal we wont really need the rage from booming voice so best served cold could be good
probably not
since it just got released
however is M+ it will be superior than every other choice in raid the wall will be your go too
sure, but wanted to see logged data for it is all
gonna have to wait a bit for that one most likely
It's day 1 probably not a lot of guild have finished raiding yet
any of our conduits change?
Hi guys, can i kindly have some advice if i should pick the neck? I have a 213 neck (Crit + Mastery with socket) and a 213 pvp weapon. Appreciate your feedback
Im sure you know the answer to that
Wep.
what are the stats?
def weap
can confirm reprisal on EU is still 6 sec
weap is priority
stats for weapon is haste versa
what! @unkempt fox
ah weapon is priority, was initially thinking that i can farm and upgrade one from necrotic wake to 220
thanks alot guys
cos the neck is bis and that is where i was struggling
DOING KEYS NOW! 😄 100% shield
Did some 14's today with new leggo, felt nice. I wasnt even using double time
Im 220, full haste/verse
You like best served cold more?
damn full haste is how much? guess i really need to grind pvp gear.. my mastery is so high 33%:(
you dont "need" it for sure
how else gonna passively mitigate magic
I like Verse, really helps your healers out and I never lose threat.
can u msg me how ur current secondary stats look? screenshjot. I need a role model
I use pvp gear
With the new valor system you can be more selective about your gear. Before It was PVP gear or ilvl
what ur vers sitting at atm?
26%
is soul ash fixed yet?
hows the new leggo feel?
it feels quite good even without min maxing charges/intervene properly yet
free rage budget/revenge and shield block on each pull feels nice
oooh 😄 ima try it with anger management
that seems fucking POOGERS
hows the damage inc feel do we drop ravager for other things now?
Wouldn't we keep it for damage still?
not sure if we can swap 2 avatar one
im playing around with bsc and AM
the larger issue is i went from kyrian to necro and can't hold aggro for shit
im preety sure best leggo is vengence demon hunter
rep is so fun lads
cant w8 for servers to come up to craft tbh
anyone is trying necro prot?
Im kinda annoyed by the meta of this expansion where the best legendaries are gona keep changing, which means more gold and torghast grind each time if you wana remain optimal...
if my current legs are 220 and boots 213. should i still put reprisal on legs ilvl235 due to higher stats instead of ilvl 235 boots?
gold needs to be important in a healthy mmo
and proffessions relevant so this is the best thing about this exp imo
yes
The potency changes are nice at least
that's fair, but choregast got real old
looking forward to getting 226 execute now just need to decide if I should swap to venth or nf and grind
Eh, torghast is a walk in the park as prot, sure a bit tedious but its not that bad imo
tried necro prot for our 6/10 m reclear today - it's interesting but getting banner on the right targets isn't trivial
I suspect the Torghast events were supposed to break up the tedium, but they're way too conservative to actually change the experience
although i'm still learning to play around it
you just need to get them to stay inside u while hittin it
You can pre-pop it on pull, which is kinda nice. That's what we were doing on Sludge tonight
how realistic is it to do 15s as venthyr for someone new to tanking and with a decent healer
Covenant is irrelevant
@floral pewter this event isnt even kinda fun either? The last one was pretty fun as prot but this one is very meh
Get a good route and play well and it's easy
very realistic, all the covenants are fine
That's what I like to hear, I have no excuse then. Thanks guys
Venthyr is probably the worst in keys but you'll be fine
I did all of my 15s as a venthyr
I'll just not use condemn I guess
Definitely use condemn if you were gonna push IP
I mean Condemn is still pretty good
Condemn is pretty good don't shy away from it
What's the consensus on which piece to craft reprisal on?
It reduces their dmg against you too doesnt it?
Ip-> condem
Legs unless you are killing M SLG
i'll eventually kill SL mythic so can get legs eventually
most people say if you are killing mythic slg, craft boots
It sure does
But always make sure u condem the prio target
go Best Served Cold with AM and reprisal and threat problem solved 🙂
Condemn's DR is about 75% of an IP, but only for that specific target (I think anyway, I play Necro)
I havent really had threat problems, like at all, is that something prot struggles with usually? :o
@sage brook got KSM as venthyr in january only pugging, so I envy you with your good healer
Hmm depends really on the pull and on your damage dealers. I'd say the issue is how little rage you have when you start a pull and you have to choose threat or mitigation. But usually Ravager removes any kind of threat issues for me.
I hate ravager 😂
Before today, maybe a handful of times a week if I messed up, I'd lose threat on something on pull. Now, Reprisal makes shit a cake walk.
Oh no it's so good!
I can safely triple/quadruple pull with ravager without worrying about my aggro
I dont know why but i really hate it
Yeah I get that. Avatar + tc usually does it for the first couple of seconds tho them Demo and keep blasting and you should be gucci tbh
Sure if you're doing one pack and if you have avatar up
Yeah ofc, I ran AM in m+ for a very long time this exp so usually had avatar for most pulls, so mightve been a bit different
I did a 14 mists to practice, gonna take a while to get in the habit of intervening out
and not try to immediately SB on engage
muscle memory
does SB stack?
Yup
What Talents u running @torpid hill
so i can blow both charges
You can press it aftwr revenge
Immedietly
Better to build treath right away then go for mitigations
3311231 BSC/AM
Bcs u get free revenge
feels nice to avatar more often :*)
you can press revenge and sb at the same time.
Basically all of warrior dr is off the gcd.
Sorry this is late, but thank you for letting me know! I basically have just exclusively been running bolster these days.
err, wait, I can just blow all the SBs on pull and hang out for 16 seconds?
yes.
Hi guys, why is BV and Last Stand no longer the go to if we use Reprisal? Hoping to learn and understand why.
🤦♂️
I never paid attention to the duration, I just figured I'd have to time it
I didnt change my talents
sb stacks to 18 seconds with reprisal/cast sb.
6+6+4 no?
you can force it higher than 18 seconds with bolster.
So whats new talenta to plax
No I mean the pandemic cap for sb is 18 seconds
guys whats hte best legenday and covenant for prot war?
are we talking 18s because of the bug where it's still 6s for reprisal supposedly? or am I missing something
Check the pins @sage rivet
Reprisal, on Live, gives 6 sec
It's 6 sec
So they didnt nerf it
let's just assume after hotfix
Great
pandemic?
SB doesn't pandemic
What pandemic means?
you can't stack past 18 seconds unless you use bolster.
does that mean if i run bolster with Reprisal, it is not really ideal?
Pandemic is a passive that all casters have that allows for 33% of the duration of DoT effects to be added onto new DoTs when they are refreshed
lets say you have a dot that does damage over 12 seconds, but has a pandemic cap of 15 seconds, that means you can apply again the final 3 seconds without losing total dot duration.
The name comes from an old Warlock ability by the same name
got it, makes sense
so it's clearly less than 30% for SB if we're talking 18s
shield block is similar, only it has what is effectively a 300% pandemic cap instead of 33%
Bolster breaks the duration cap for the time you have Last Stand buff active.
So what talents should be going then
so does that mean I could have been doing 27 second shield blocks with bolster for the past few months?
Still bolster?
ah i see, thank you Mwahi! You are a life saver.. Am trying to understand and learn proper why going Reprisal we run BSC and AM instead of sticking to BV and Bolster
yep
SB just has a max duration cap of 3xAM.
depends on the content
I feel like such an idiot
having to watch SB timer like a maniac every pull
you mean SB?
depends on context
I don't follow what uptime would mean for anger management
I think they mean active mit
Active mitigation
that makes more sense
so IOW, stacking SB is bad unless you're getting hit for the entire duration
I mean if you know you're aboutta use the whole duration of the sb it's whatever.
Usually I don't just double sb unless I want to pool rage for a double ip for something.
theoretically, we're at a potential maximum of 33s SB with reprisal + bolster, correct?
yep, makes sense. I'm going to have to experiment with this now that I understand the stacking
not often that you can just burn 60 rage on pull anyway
Technically a 63s sb since both sb charges and intervene and charge charges will come off cd in that time.
ah true
I could see double time being an absolute blast if your comp has enough short kicks
not to totally discount the 4s stun of course
man this patch is way too big 😦 I should have dled it at home
work internet is going to take foreverrrrrr
Reprisal on legs or boots, Im not killing SLG Mythic anytime soon
Legs~
legs then
Might do once my main has but wont be till end of tier anyway
take it haste/vers still?
Yep!
wow this is the first time I've completely filled the key section of the great vault and the first time I've gotten complete and utter trash thanks blizz 😦
what's the valor upgrade cost of trinkets?
nvm, found it on mmo
I got sanguine vintage
Covenant?
Has anyone here tried new necrolord abilties
All 4 are good, with venthyr being the least good. Generally kyrian>=NF>Necro>Venthyr @cedar shoal
oh ffs.... barghat's leash myhtic + bracers + chest... where I already have 226 with haste...
Just did a 15 with reprisal... This is such a fun and welcomed legendary!
also it's 6 seconds not 4... .blizz dropped the ball and I'm happy about it
👀 👀 👀
don't you love bolstering storming?
i should pick a 226 crit/haste shield (currently 207) over a sire hc weapon (210 currently) right?
can someone help me choose alar 213 or wrists? i can buy a socket f or the new wrists btw
right, forgot 😄
Enjoy cruising on yer shieldblocks today bois!
I play bit of arms and fury too, do you know what’s best if I like to do all content? Obviously not venthyr since it’s not as good for prot
you play NF if you want all speccs in all content
Those wrists are pretty minor. Id take alar just to have it sitting in my bags 
though you will be hampered in raid combat on ST fights
Prolly NF then mate. Its solid for all 3 specs
What neck u got?
what do you guys think about NF vs Necro for raid tanking now?
what stats are on that neck?
crit/mastry
@mossy creek go for NF if you're asking
Necro needs a lot of setup to be worth it
no mine is haste/mastry
and some crazy pumpers
210 HoA neck? @unique shale
y
Neck or stygia
ur nf?
/roll 2
Is double time more valuable while Running reprisal or is storm bolt as an additional interrupt too important?
ahh ok, yeah im NF rn but not sure if necro is worth to swap to with the new changes
Both have their uses
Preference.
trinket is shit right ?
Storm bolt is love
@mossy creek
for these questions always helps
Thanks
Problem being every good classes in m+ group take nf as their bis
Did anyone else check the stats on their gear and see them changed?
"added potency conduits" we literally only get the covenant ones from Denathrius xD
which is big
as they were only from the worldboss and the lottery
and are the best for most classes
Well obviously it is stupid, but I need to getl uckyt killing him on mythic to get anything out of it
Bargast's Leach is kinda trash right ?
Got some niche uses
I got a 20 ilvl upgrade on another slot so I think I'll pass on that trinket
always pass on the leach
how good is now revanche as legendary compared to the thunderclap?
The what?
Revanche?
revenge in baguette

Reprisal is always better than thunderlord now
Damn so need to go into TG again. Thanks
Cross realm mythic should be open now, right?
Yep
In Na since yesterday, in EU since last week
Cross realm was not a thing last reset for EU
Nah, think it just got opened
It did
Just to ask, my reprisal is now giving 6 seconds of shield block. Did they forget ot patch in the nerf or did they undo the nerf before it went live?
patch notes still say 4s
Probably forgot to change it
so probably will be hotfixed
Gonna get fixed soon i reckon
Yeah i thought as much. Will try not to get used to it haha
Jep, make a cancel aura when you have 2s of SB left to get used to the "fixed" version.
👍

haha
Just abuse it while you still can 
I'm still so tilted I'm only understanding SB stacking now
how are all my prot homies feelin with the buffs?
rising up 
Still at work. 😦
have anyone tried running any m+ and see how dmg compares? Maybe some1 also tried going TC cd reduction talent when using avatar?
Tier lists POG
I guess The Wall will still be the going to Legy for raiding.
WE LOVE TIER LISTS
hehe
What’s % of base haste is needed to feel smooth?
That's personal preference. 👀
I enjoy 25%+
UF is still kinda dead, you run ravager in m+ even after the buffs/changes
Some play with like 15%.
31% haste chad ama
Is that 25% with or without fray?
Go away you fury boy.
I was running haste-heavy and then started getting a bunch of high-vers items 🤷
Or arms, idk
69% haste is my personal cap
tho we say ilvl is everything, is a 213 142vers/53 mast ring worth using over a 207 87 haste/129 mastery ring?
I can help you reach that @brittle owl 😳
I got some work to do then LOL

😳
I’m 12% base
There’s so little haste vers gear available compared to other combos it feels.
I just pick Haste + w/e gear.
pvp m8
You would have to play PVP then tho.
I bought the crit/vers chest months ago before I knew :(
Nah u can do RBGs, thats pretty much PvE
rbgs are chill and fun
tho i prefer to degen 2's
PvP will prob my life for awhile lol
Rolling my second prot warrior and I can't decide between vulpera and goblin 🤔
Uhhh
You can also just get haste gear from PvE..i've done like 0 PvP. 😂
you are a disgrace
Why would you pick one of the two ugliest races :/
Because I'm a menace
Yeah..pick Goblin.
Female goblin then
My main is highmountain
plka is slowly convincing me to go vulpera
thank me later
Nose for trouble is legit ya
Me2 defect
yeah it's legit smelly
but goblin is great for above mentioned reasons
when he said it's like 10% of his self absorb it blew my mind
It's a solid 100+ hps.
How did it only now blow your mind? It's been a thing since forever. 😦
Never been a secret

ykno, in trouble
I mean, I only found out tonight SB stacks
Same.
next you're gonna tell me that haste is a good stat for prot
🤣
some people find out you can turn with your mouse after 10 years of wow
A and D strafe for me, no key turning
😂
Bro
Full body VR
full 🍆 body? 😳
😳
You guys...ugh..ok?
in general or
Yes.
Nah
the SSRIs are helping
diet is kinda all over the place ngl
Definitely not
The fuck is a ssri
antidepressant
nah fam
wow is my distraction :*)
Mood
I could have continued playing my single player games
I used to bike for 2-3 hours without any food
to lose weight
sometimes my quads would lock up
had to bus home
Best idea for dieting is..playing WoW and forgetting to eat.
unironically bigly true
yeah but then you hearthstone on krosus
No.
Ha that's me with every game ever
You roll off the bridge on Krosus.
should I craft reprisal on legs or on boots?
God damn monks
Legs
🦿
Dependi f if you have access to slg mythic legs
Can't wait to go home and throw on my 190 Reprisal legs.
:stonks:
bruh
210 for me 😍
