#

pride is good because its both beneficial and taxing

wet compass
#

and I hate that tyrannical bosses are basically balanced with prideful in mind

sand condor
#

because they dont dos hit

#

and you just fucking wreck

fringe marten
#

I did too jakey, as the xpac started and the keys and the prideful mob itself wasn't that big of a deal..and that pug healers who are 'meh' could handle it fine.

wet compass
#

20% ghosts were fun because I didn't give a shit when reaping came it could come during bosses and still be fine

jagged pier
#

yer but like it didnt do anything imagine you are your healer working together say in like grevious week to keep u at 4 stacks and like below 50% hp all the time so u just do uber damage

#

would be so interesting

#

this is just and example of an idea but they could do loads of stuff

wet compass
#

and it would feel crazy painful in pugs

fringe marten
#

So it has to tell you something, when the best Mythic dungeon teams in the world..with literally the best possible gear would try and skip any prideful mob they could that wasn't absolutely critical.

jagged pier
#

like healers dont healer for a min or they have to do a certain amount of damage and they get a healing buff for like 5 mins or somthing

#

it would make dungeons way more fun the healers like right im not healing for x amount of time

#

play around it with pots etc

fringe marten
#

When those groups say "nope..the time and effort involved in killing that thing, for a GIGANTIC damage boost is absolutely not worth"

#

It is only my opinion and everyone can have their own and that's fine; but I am of the opinion that the seasonal affix should be a themed 'boost'. Something you WANT to interact with, and plan around using for the dungeon. Not the healer going "oh god...here comes prideful..." and the group saying the same thing "ugh..well we HAVE to kill this so we can grind through this terrible boss with a bazillion HP"

blazing condor
#

i mean usually you line up the routes to utilize the prides efficiently

wet compass
fringe marten
#

The routes have always been designed around taking the seasons affix into consideration; NOT having the affix punish you, and you just have to deal with it because it gives you something you NEED to deal with their overtuned dungeons (it's mostly a tyrannical bosses thing).

The pillars in BFA final season...when you activated ANY of those mobs were you worried about them wrecking the group and sweating if you needed to burn cd's for it or not? Or was it something you utilized as a bonus to push through the dungeon?

strong forum
#

A bonus to push through

wet compass
#

The Pillars in BFA are the only affix I have actually liked outside of bwom and bwom was basically a non affix

strong forum
#

They were NEVER a threat to the group

#

Never ever never were they dangerous to the group

wet compass
#

and that isn't a bad thing

strong forum
#

Yes

fringe marten
#

But it didn't feel punishing..it didn't feel like you had to surgically pull the dungeon EXACTLY, and if some pug hunter was out of position and pulled an extra mob..? who cares? kill it and move on.

strong forum
#

But now you're insanely punished by prideful mobs

#

Cuz it literally makes you wipe on high keys

#

Or you need to commit serious CDs to it

wet compass
#

We agree Nome we agree

strong forum
#

Awakened was peak affix

#

Next to reaping ofc

#

Prideful is nice, but it needs it's dmg / health reduced alot tbh

fringe marten
#

AND to top it all off; the prideful buff they've built these bosses around expecting you'll have it....if you wipe, there's no recovery..it's over. I know that a wipe was going to really strain the key in BFA, and 2 was PROBABLY rip key.

wet compass
#

Yep that's the big issue the bosses are balanced around it

strong forum
#

In bfa you could do 2 pillars with end bosses

fringe marten
#

But now they're basically asking the random pugging community to now be surgically precise with your routes, and have zero failure tolerance.

strong forum
#

In SL you cant even do the prideful mob paired with anything

forest fern
#

well to time it that is, hence why you see the after timer free prideful thing, they know its needed which is the "mistake" of it i think

#

makes me wonder what we're getting next season and if they'll have to go in and rebalance everything cause of the change

fringe marten
#

Right..as you got stronger in bfa final season, you got to use that affix in a way that made you feel like you were getting stronger, that you could adapt your strategy around getting more gear/corruption..etc. You push higher in SL's now..you STILL aren't pulling a pride into a substantial pack of mobs for efficiency.

unique shale
#

it has to do with chains i guess

fringe marten
#

LOL didn't even notice nom said basically the same thing I did

chains between all party members that deal damage to anyone caught between them

can't wait m+ become only for range players

wait it isn't already?

Wait melee play m+?

fringe marten

If that's the season 2 affix...I certainly hope dungeons are tuned down SUBSTANTIALLY because kiting with chains that kill people? yup..not a thing~

unique shale
#

meh

wet compass
#

no see dad you use the chains to kill mobs

They killed every good melee spec + punish you heavily to play melee

waaaait did they hotfix it already? Just yesterday evening it showed 4 but gave me 6 😦

hm? ok. we'll see.

#

Yeah playing reprisal will be a bit harder now

#

But still very very good

#

Skill ceiling just Rose alot

unique shale
#

get mobs to gather Spear and chain them

wet compass
#

fuck why would they do this

lucid cedar
#

every domination spell in WoW is based around mind control, I wonder if Jailer will just assume control of a mob or someone in your group

fringe marten
#

I just honestly get the impression the devs said "I have this neat idea..." "...now I don't play any of this content on my main, I JUST do raiding..so? I think the way this works is fine..tanking M+ is fine right now I think?"

unique shale
#

new m+ affic

#

choose wisely

wet compass
#

nah more like this

#

and the mobs will be in the center

#

and the tanks will have to hop over chains like jump rope

#

while tanking

fringe marten
#

So let's compare it to the affix it was obviously modeled after...bwonsamdi's spirits. Why do you think they made the pride give that insane buff? Because everyone skipped the 100% wave in BFA. So they wanted to design it so you 'wanted' to kill it. But how much harder is prideful than that affix was? That affix was fun because it was a huge clapfiesta and all you had to do was dodge a purple swirly on the ground.

unique shale
#

mind control will be fun tbh fire mage get mind control big offff 🤣

wet compass
#

oh god please no mind control

fringe marten
#

Even the emissary seasonal...from Azhara; NO ONE Liked that...but it still wasn't as punishing or time consuming or even effected the dungeon route nearly as much.

Pride is just annoying

I'm currently wondering if the Shadowlands Season 2 Affix will be something Maw-related, or if it'll be something to do with the Brokers

fringe marten
#

Everything combined; the way higher dungeon difficulty (strength of trash, bosses, and mechanical demands of some of the bosses) the fact that there's SO many casters in every zone now, the angry punishing seasonal affix...AND THEN garbage ass loot at the end.. has turned M+ into a pug unfriendly finger pointing contest of who fucked up and why; and then people bailing on the key.

Good day guys, to use reprisal effectively. Do I use my shield after a charge and continue with my normal rotation or is there actually a better optimum way to play?

45% more rage gain is nutty

last stand is still a good CD to use even if you dont get SB

put some rage gain on it and its even better

nah, its respect

i mean the value of reprisal will rise the longer mobs survive, so it grows at a higher rate as the key grows

i enjoy discord ommunity and want to benefit from it without hurting anyone's brains

its the same on every class discord 😐

forest fern

well something new happened tends to create lots of repetitive discussion. I don't know whether that's a sad thing though from design of the class point of view that this one change created so much discussion

#

"hey guys, they bandaided a major problem, time to celebrate!"

unique shale
#

Reprisal is a DPS increase over The Wall if you can utilise Intervene/Charge properly.
Yes, it can be good in Raid fights that allow this kind of movement.

astral crystal
#

it's a complement for sblock

#

except against magic where you just spam ip :^)

median tulip
#

I like it. Having a mobility-baded tanking legendary works really well for us, IMO.

Now I'm just hoping that they'll buff Thunderlord soon.

forest fern
#

i doubt you're getting any alteration to thunderlord, i think any changes would only be to "in the toilet" legendaries because in the future we likely have "multiple legendaries" incoming and they don't want to pre create issues there

median tulip
# astral crystal IP isnt about how long it lasts

I was replying to a question about Brutal Vitality; the problem with BV is that it only does anything if you already have an active IP; so on Raid Bosses BV does nothing because you can't keep IP up

zenith monolith
#

guys, quick question on Sludge Mythic, does it matter if Prot Warrior keeps aggro vs DH ? Damage intake or output wise. Rage gen etc ?

unique shale
#

no

zenith monolith
#

no difference at all ?

forest fern
#

no the fight does not work like "old" shared encounter bosses

#

you don't take the hit that the main tank takes

astral crystal
#

as long as you don't suck at repositioning boss :^)

forest fern
#

you take a dual hit essentially at the same time

#

in the past your question would have been, yes definitely prot on a physical slugger like him, but that was changed a while ago to stop that sort of tank usage on shared cleave type fights

zenith monolith
#

thanks 🙂

forest fern
#

np

#

it can be confusing cause bosses in the past, eg the 2nd boss in highmaul, didn't work this way and you could cut the offtanks damage taken by having higher mitigation main tank. Sludge doesn't discriminate 🙂

harsh sandal
#

For Kyrian, is Mik or Kleia better for prot? Using Pelo for fury.

forest fern
#

if you "can't" use pelo, it would be kleia i suspect

#

obviously pelo is better, but she works as a second option

#

mik i believe has stuff you don't really need outside of solo content mostly

harsh sandal
#

Awesome. I could, but I than I have to remember to change conduits, which I have learned I rarely do 🙂

forest fern
#

yer, its a chink in the system honestly, they should make it work differently

harsh sandal
#

agreed

forest fern
#

if pressing a button can change spec and talents, it should be able to save multiple versions of a soulbind

harsh sandal
#

But the fun of choice...or some such theory

forest fern
#

its probably a design issue cause you need to change the conduits at a pedestal and the game probably won't allow a mobile change unless blizzard redesigns it, which will prob happen at some point

#

probably when it doesn't matter anymore knowing them 🙂

median tulip
forest fern
#

don't worry it will be in a blizz shop for $49.99 next year some time 😉

median tulip
#

Hahaha

#

What's that in €?

wet compass
#

Your soulbind changes based on your talent spec

eager phoenix
#

problem with kleia and mik is they are trash so you basically end up swapping left and right at the bottom of pelo if i want 1f or 1e conduit

wet compass
#

just set up a different soulbind for each spec

forest fern
#

he means only if it is a differrent soulbind

wet compass
#

I know

forest fern
#

if you want the same it uses the same conduits and setup

median tulip
wet compass
#

No you don't?

#

you save your gear per spec

median tulip
#

You do if you have 3 possible setups on a single spec

wet compass
#

I mean you want there not to be conduit energy which isn't a thing sadly

median tulip
#

Like I have 7 different saved gear sets at this point; 3 of them are Protection alone

#

Yeah Conduit Energy is a total horseshit mechanic that needs to die a horrible and painful death, alone in a ditch somewhere

you would have think they learned their lession with azerite gear respecs 🙂

Multiple uses depending on case.
1)INtervene to a ranged player to put distance between you and the enemy (kiting,avoiding mechanics like the bleed in SD)
2)Intervene when someone needs the defensive value from it
3)With Reprisal honestly on CD cause i want my rage and damage.

Hey guys I gave Necrolord a shot. Banner is very good dps increase, in aoe packs along with our 10% buff this patch the dmg is goooood. Also the bubble is very handy, I tested it in hc sire last night. You can use it while the other tank has the boss and you are ready to absorb 30K dmg. The conduits are nice, especially the one that bubbles you for 15% of your hp when you drop below 50%. Overall my survivability has been increased which was an issue in mythic raiding (even that my gear is pretty maxed out)

for example, plenty of people are under the assumption that pwarr does dog damage

which wasnt true even before 9.0.5

we have (had?) issues with snap threat

overall damage was decent

orchid frigate

they should stop selling that on the titanforged podcast

Its cuz people not invested into pwar said that in early beta

So they didn't bother trying to play well

And that carried all the way until 9.0.5 cuz nobody showed them the opposite

Well, I guess what we're discussing is the effect of preconceptions by others that you need to in order to run keys, aused by random content creators

and the effect Twitch has on people's opinion on whats good or not

Curse of Weakness – Increases the time between an enemy's attacks by 20% for 2 minutes - Been looking at quite a lot of logs today for various Mythic guilds and usage of this on bosses in Nathria seems very inconsistent despite all comps having a lock.

Tank Notes references the impact it has on swing timer: https://www.tanknotes.com/castle-nathria/sludgefist Sludge for example: Swing Timer: 1.5s (Curse of Weakness 1.8s) where it is especially impactful.

Hi all, recently dinged on warrior currently doing low keys to get a bit of valor, reckon its better to throw everything in to an early 220 shield or wait till i am doing higher keys to get more effeicnet upgrades?

if i lose all of aggro during charge is this my fault ?

open monolith

@unique shale i am 100% confident that you already know the answer to that question.

brittle owl
#

you wont even feel it's there

#

nor will your healers

brittle owl
#

it saves roughly 3 HoT ticks per minute

#

its such a minuscule gain, people don't really focus on it

#

if it was

#

you'd see more DH's, veng or havoc, go venthyr for the brand

unique shale
#

why

brittle owl
#

reality of the situation is slower swing timer is not impactful

#

except on a bdk for shit like orogozoa type bosses

blissful pebble
#

Sludgefist hitting me and giant fisting the Offtank less seems like a big thing to me? Can you define why it would be negligible?

brittle owl
#

define less

open monolith
#

...really?

#

don't be that guy lmao

brittle owl
#

in a 1.6 second long encounter you take 50% less damage with weakness up

#

the longer the encounter is

#

the less the gain is

prisma bear

wtf am i reading

I don't think that's how maths works

charred hinge
#

Ty @solemn magnet @jagged pier

prisma bear
#

how low is your progress

open monolith
#

yeah ignore that drivel

#

Yes, weakness is impactful. in a 4 minute fight of a boss with a 1.5 second swing timer (with no casts, so these numbers aren't real) you'd get hit 160 times.

#

with weakness, it would be ~133

#

On a boss that chunks hard, that is significant

jagged pier
#

☝️

unique shale
jagged pier
#

its less swings during enrage

open monolith

whether or not you NEED it up the whole fight totally depends on your tank's survivability and your healers throughput

It will be different depending on your group.

ill take it even if its 1 less tbh

Use it if you need it, don't if you don't.

and yeah, actting like enraged sludgefist autos don't matter KEKW

unique shale
#

if i lose all of aggro during charge is this my fault ?

open monolith
#

Yes Angel

jagged pier
#

yes because u can ravager before u charge

open monolith
#

that is your fault

#

100%

prisma bear

no matter what you keep weakness up if you arent worthless, period. you gain way more damage from healers and tank reduced dmg taken than 1 players 1 global every minute

unique shale
jagged pier
#

well i dunno

#

i have no issue

unique shale
#

i even spear and ravager and yet i lose aggro

sweet surge
#

means you're not pressing damage buttons after that spear/ravager

#

its not possible you're losing aggro on charge w/ both rav and spear

uneven mason

a Boom or Fire on full boar is REALLY hard to hold aggro vs

open monolith

a boomie has very little aoe BURST, that's a poor example

with spear/rav you can keep aggro even i they insta pop

done.

#

You have threat, congratulations

unique shale
#

i don't have ST on each pack

open monolith
#

Angel there is no way to diagnose your issue with so little information

#

Threat is a play issue either for the DPS pulling before you are in combat, or you not playing properly

sweet surge
#

if people are insta combusting before you've even gathered the pack, then no, thats actually not your fault

open monolith
#

we don't know which it is.

unique shale
#

i say before i get the adds i lose aggro

#

i can't press dps if all of them spared around

astral crystal
#

idk wtf everyone's talking about but that's my hot take

open monolith
#

Again: Threat is a play issue either for the DPS pulling before you are in combat, or you not playing properly

blissful pebble
#

In a 90 second window you would be hit 50 times with weakness up vs 60 times with no weakness (1.5s base swing). That is more dps time or spot healing elsewhere time for healers and also means ignore pain can do more work.

yeah my guild leader literally told me he wouldn't take me on any alt runs or key runs at all on my Survival hunter. I challenged him to a DPS off on a fortified week m+ dungeon: his Marksman vs my Survival. If he beat me in overall, I'd supply feasts and cauldrons for the rest of the tier. If I won, he'd shut the fuck up and let me play whatever alt I want.

#

I beat him 15 ilvls lower.

When would you use fleshcraft? After pulls or as a mid-pull mitigastion?

#

Or both depending on the situation i guess?

sweet surge
#

mid pull sounds better

#

you already get SB on opener from Reprisal

#

Double time or storm bolt with reprisal?

open monolith
#

stormbolt if you need an extra interrupt. double time if you don't.

sweet surge
#

so the answer is: depends

open monolith
#

depends on what dungeon you're in, how many interrupts your group comp has

#

how good your group is at coordinating and using said interrupts

#

IN GENERAL, safe play is go storm bolt.

#

Stormbolt should be warrior baseline 😦

Thanks guys

sweet surge
#

all I'll say is I've ran wit hteh same people since sl start, around 20 key levels

#

stormbolt has felt mostly useless

#

but ocasionally life saving cuz mistakes happen

open monolith
#

stormbolt helps with Bucking rampage 😄

sweet surge
#

well we're fairly coordinated so that isnt a problem

#

For me stormbolt is too good to pass up

sweet surge

but mistakes do happen

0 St stuns in my group

#

Besides mine

sweet surge
#

I run with a WW so we have stun every pack

#

two with mine

open monolith
#

plus stormbolt can be used for an incredibly minor dps gain on boss fights when you have no SS resets and everything is on CD 😄

sweet surge
#

so sbolt is literally just an extra kick

strong forum
#

Yes

#

That's perfect

I'd rather be low ilvl with bad RNG gear systems than subject myself to pvp

sweet surge

id rather nto be low ilvl myself

#

low ilvl is the worst

open monolith
#

incorrect

#

pvp is the worst

#

this is based off of years of research

ha. melee meme.

an excuse for being dog in pvp 😦

Based off of my very educated opinion and facts, pvp > pve in every game

open monolith
#

Probably. Whether or not I am good is irrelevant.

I don't like who I become when I lose.

Hey guys, what covenant should i choose for prot warr (m+ only) - arms pvp dualspec?

sick sentinel
#

What would you guys recommend for m+ anger management or bolster, I like bolster because last stand is up more often and I can dump in more ips while it’s up

vethyr is absolutely the worst

for prot

blazing condor

spear is good or pvp

same with phial

sweet surge

if you want to both PvP and prot in Mplus, its Kyrian

with pelagos i assume

sweet surge

Then Necro/NF and then Venthyr

pelagos only, yes

#

the other two are dog

wait.. necro pvp is a thing ?

I don't think I like the way you are using "dog" in your sentences

I'm having some threat issues when running with DH dps. At the start of a pull despite hitting a revenge on charge, the DH will eyebeam and take threat from most of the pack...which depending on the pack gets him killed. What can I do to stop this when challenging shout is off cd? Opening is charge>revenge>demo shout.

sweet surge
#

which would be fine by me if tehre werent cars nearby

#

@sick sentinel Open with Rav/Spear and alternate them

#

you can also intervene him to save him

#

or he can wait an extra global
