But I'm only like... 1300 so

#

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

blazing condor
#

thats where it started getting worse for me

#

but that was in 9.0

autumn ingot
#

what legendary do you guys usually run with in mythic dungeon?

blazing condor
#

reprisal

cinder nova
#

Reprisal

autumn ingot
#

3 leap legos anyone?

blazing condor
#

not in m+ : p

cinder nova
#

Use Reprisal, pick up BSC and Rav

#

Pump

autumn ingot
#

come on its the best this week lmao

blazing condor
#

well you dont really need 3x leaps to clear

#

:p

autumn ingot
#

so you guys are telling me that im the only one using the 3 leap legos? haha

blazing condor
#

outside of pvp probably yeah

surreal sinew
#

Man itโ€™s the best

cinder nova
#

Yes. It's a meme leggo with no practical use outside of PVP.

blazing condor
#

you can leap once and it's gucci if you wanna clear stacks

surreal sinew
#

Carried me on arti mythic

blazing condor
#

you dont even need to leap

surreal sinew
#

Just bounce about and do seeds

chilly brook
#

Meme of the meme

autumn ingot
#

what about the wall?

cinder nova
#

Wall is the raid leggo

autumn ingot
#

with anger management

cinder nova
#

Reprisal is the M+ leggo

chilly brook
#

Outside of just clearing old content and pvp leaper is a meme

autumn ingot
#

for this week I think runnin with 3 leapos is not that bad

chilly brook
#

Wall with AM=raid

cinder nova
#

It's a waste.

#

You don't need 3 leaps.

chilly brook
autumn ingot
#

I just did not maintain my aggro and that is why my team was pissed at me at the end eventhough we almost timed it twice

chilly brook
#

Wall with Bolster=keys if you dont like reprisal

cinder nova
#

You're giving up an enormous amount of block uptime and damage by using that legendary.

blazing condor
#

just curious whats your rio rn? @autumn ingot ๐Ÿ˜„

chilly brook
blazing condor
#

if you come out with 2k io i might switch

#

kapp

autumn ingot
#

my io is not that high around 1k+

chilly brook
#

You're killing your runs

#

Because you're not holding aggro

#

And because you're wasting time leaping around when you have no need

cinder nova
#

Reminds me of that one guy in #fury that was like "Nah guys Frenzy is better in M+ than Massacre" and everyone wanted him to show us the math for it while he chirped about being 2K.

blazing condor
#

not to mention youre losing a bit of DPS by not being able to have SB up and pumping revenges

#

meaning keys take longer time

autumn ingot
#

alright so I dont have reprisal yet

cinder nova
#

Wall and Bolster.

blazing condor
#

feel like bolster might be worth on DoS to run even with reprisal tbh

#

eases some bigger pulls and mili

chilly brook
#

Eh

cinder nova
#

Nothing in DOS hurts us except like...

#

The Death Speakers.

#

Shadowcore will dumpster you

chilly brook
#

Shield Wall is better in DoS

autumn ingot
#

I actually havent tried using bolster what does bolster do?

chilly brook
#

Because lots of non blockable damage

blazing condor
#

Bolster gives your Last Stand shield block for its duration

autumn ingot
#

I only know anger managerment is the best one for mythic and raid

chilly brook
#

Lmao my guy

#

AM was not the best for m+ until like 2 weeks ago

blazing condor
#

ive run a lot of DoS this week and i feel like im only having AM for the avatar

#

which is good enough ig

autumn ingot
#

ill give it a shot bolster and the wall

chilly brook
#

And only in conjunction with reprisal

cinder nova
#

I will say, Griff, that's probably true.

#

If I do DOS this week I might just go Bolster/Wall.

blazing condor
#

DoS is super easy this week

cinder nova
#

The bleed on manastorm is a cunt

blazing condor
#

yeah milificent a bitch

chilly brook
blazing condor
#

i usually end up going through all my CDs for her on tyrannical

chilly brook
#

If you have good dps the stacks dont normally get too high

blazing condor
#

at least you can SR a little

chilly brook
#

It still sucks

blazing condor
#

and phial if kyrian

#

other than that just gotta prayge

autumn ingot
#

guys I have one question, everytime the mobs stacked up to each other, it makes it difficult for me to use interrup when a mob is casting

chilly brook
#

Get better nameplates

autumn ingot
#

so what kinda addons that makes a caster more visible

blazing condor
#

there are a lot

#

ive been using threatplates for a while which works for me

chilly brook
#

Threatplates, plater etc.

autumn ingot
#

I dont know how to set it up so yeah thats also the reason lol

#

I think I have all the addons but I just dont know what to do with it

strong forum
#

Start slowly and get yourself familiar with them, take some inspiration from others

chilly brook
#

Plenty of content on YouTube to walk you through setups

strong forum
#

And work your way through

autumn ingot
#

so why is bolster good with the wall, is anger management better with the wall?

chilly brook
#

Because block uptime

autumn ingot
#

I think angermanagement is better with the wall

chilly brook
#

It's not

autumn ingot
#

so that I can use the wall ever big pulls

strong forum
#

You will lack block uptime when running AM

autumn ingot
#

how long does bolster shield last?

chilly brook
#

16 seconds

autumn ingot
#

16???

#

what the

chilly brook
#

On top of your block charges

autumn ingot
#

that long?

chilly brook
#

Might be 15

#

Idr

autumn ingot
#

sheeesh

chilly brook
#

All I know is you can get over 30 seconds of block

autumn ingot
#

I might actually try running with bolster

chilly brook
#

Straight

#

Shield Wall is good

autumn ingot
#

so the wall acts like anger management and bolster for extra uptime block

strong forum
#

Si

chilly brook
#

But you're gonna get clapped when you have nothing

autumn ingot
#

sheeesh

chilly brook
#

Which is why bolster is the play with the wall

autumn ingot
#

what if I have 3 leaps with bolster

chilly brook
#

No

strong forum
#

No

vocal bison
#

Lol

chilly brook
#

Delete that legendary smh

#

It's useless in pve

autumn ingot
#

its like a combination of kiting and heavy tanking

modern brook
#

griffs afraid of progress smh

modern brook
autumn ingot
#

best in both worlds

chilly brook
#

You dont need leaper to kite.....

strong forum
#

You don't kite

modern brook
#

whats the point of aving heavy defensives if you're just going to kite

strong forum
#

How often do you need 3 leaps

#

Be real

chilly brook
#

Never lmao

modern brook
#

more over you dont need to kite anymore - at least not to the point where u need to cover 60yds

strong forum
#

Bounding stride gives you a leap every 30 seconds

autumn ingot
#

when the stacks are going up

strong forum
#

That's PLENTY

signal plover
#

We back on this leaper talk again hotdamn

autumn ingot
#

ez escape

modern brook
vocal bison
#

intervene the healer to create distance of leap is on CD

#

or range

autumn ingot
#

I mean 9 seconds of stacks are kinda dangerous

lusty marsh
#

Just use kleia ez clap.

#

I assume it's necrotic week with all the talk on kiting.

chilly brook
#

This is old

#

But my guy

#

You need to watch this

#

@autumn ingot

modern brook
#

shameless ๐Ÿ˜

chilly brook
modern brook
#

that ones gotta hit the like goal - i understand

#

I stay subbed

chilly brook
#

Lol

#

Necrotic really do be a meme affix especially on Tyranical

strong forum
#

A great weekly only key week

chilly brook
#

With the Tyranical nerfs Tyranical isn't that bad

blazing condor
#

i kinda prefer it tbh

#

even though it loses more time id imagine

chilly brook
#

In all honesty I'm not a fan of the inconsistency in general between weeks

#

I'd prefer trash to always be as tough as it should be week to week and same with bosses

autumn ingot
#

wait so how do you maintain your aggro if you run too far to reset the stacks?

blazing condor
#

Just deal damage in the pack

#

Ravager TC and revenge all hells

#

Helps*

autumn ingot
#

yeah but if I do it, the mobs starts attacking my dps

#

its really weird

blazing condor
#

Ancient aftershock or kyrian spear is ez aggro

#

Idk ive never had any aggro issues like that so i couldnt tell you :/

#

You could challenging shout to gain a lot of aggro during it

#

But thats not really viable

cinder storm
#

spam HT when you see an add losing aggro and do all the aforementioned

autumn ingot
#

that was my only problem, I just cant maintain my aggro everytime I want to reset my stacks

strong forum
autumn ingot
#

maybe I should leave a ravager before I jump out

modern brook
#

High key

#

If you're losing aggro when kiting to drop stacks

#

you're kiting way too early and for way too long

strong forum
#

^

autumn ingot
#

oh maybe thats it

plush tendon
#

I dont think initial aggro should be too hard as prot war; press revenge, ravager, Avatar

modern brook
#

only ttime aggro should be even remotely close to an issue is at the start of a pull you're burning cds on

plush tendon
#

I mean, if my blood dk can hold aggro, you can to!

modern brook
#

Is blood boil target capped?

autumn ingot
#

haha I need to watch someone plays

#

maybe im doing it wrong

modern brook
#

Sense, Plka, Nomeratur

#

all 3 have twitches

#

and arent stinky

blazing condor
#

Me too #shamelessselfplug

plush tendon
#

having DRW on pull does help, but damage output on blood is currently a issue; I believe they are lowest damage tank ATM

modern brook
#

maybe they should try getting a 10% aura buff

autumn ingot
#

or maybe Ishould just record myself and post it on youtube so that you guys can point out my mistakes

short kiln
#

Is PW second in Damage now?

plush tendon
#

They are up there; most tanks do pretty good damage (lets ignore Prot Paladin since they dont really tank)

short kiln
#

agreed. ๐Ÿ™‚

plush tendon
#

VDH sigil great for initial aggro, Bears have low damage, but have some big damage CDs and uncapped thrash, Monks do dam, and War does dam

short kiln
strong forum
#

Bear needs ramp-up time, that's their biggest issue

#

But once they're rolling it's ๐Ÿ‘Œ

plush tendon
#

I think the only tank really struggling with aggro and damage is blood

short kiln
#

I've found that completely. night and day threat gen between it and my VDH

strong forum
#

Blood has no snap aggro or huge dmg ye

#

But their dmg isn't dogshit

blazing condor
#

dont need to hold aggro if you raise ally ๐Ÿค”

#

that sounded wrong

plush tendon
#

their overall isnt bad

blazing condor
#

nvm what i said

plush tendon
#

but there is also very little gameplay you can do as blood to push your damage

#

the biggest thing is using blooddrinker on CD and thats only for ST

jagged pier
plush tendon
#

its aight; its old though

#

but the affix match this week, so good on you

short kiln
#

I really value videos like that one where the thought and reasoning behind skill usage and gameplay are explained. It's SUPER helpful.

chilly brook

as in you're not sold on it, or not in the swing of using it perfectly yet?

i did one on reprisal griff your safe

I'm on a massive push right now to hit 60 just so I can get into L3 torghast to get the leggo so I don't have to wait or grind Corridors

I also have a weakaura that once I get to like 20 stacks, it tells my group that Im dipping the fuck out

Sup dudes, bear main here and looking to play another tank for fun. Canโ€™t decide between kyrian or NF for warrior. Kinda leaning towards kyrian because NF is so saturated atm. What cov do u guys like to play?

chilly brook
chilly brook
sweet summit
#

both are great, neither will limit your ability to do content

#

so if youre leaning towards kyrian, go kyrian

finite berry

Which does more dam? Lol

Ok nf it is

Necrotic aint that bad

wanton condor
#

I'm currently doing a world tour of covenants

plush tendon
#

I honestly dont see the fuss about it

cinder storm
#

I find Necro fun, but I m planning on going back to kyr, my heals (disc) is kyrian and shes adamant about going venth

wanton condor
#

as I was on kyrian but wanted to branch out

#

so I went night fae snare shot

cinder storm
#

I m thinking about trying venthyr lol, at the start of the xpac I was like, I will never swap covs

jagged pier
plush tendon
#

You can have success in any cov as a Prot War; if you are running with a consistent group, I would recommend being the guy who fills a dungeon buff

wanton condor
#

thinking going going venthyr next, but I honestly really enjoy NF arms

#

battlelord feels amazing

chilly brook
#

And obviously dislike the playstyle

cinder storm
#

@plush tendon I am now, just this week was able to break into the 18s with this consistent grp.

#

Like if pwar would be the least impacted by changing cov then I dont mind doing it

plush tendon
#

I think its better to always have DPS take their BiS cov then the tank and healer try to fill in what is missing if running with a group

cinder storm
#

Yeah, my heals is disc and we dont raid, our only issue is HoA, we've tried that keys with and without venthyr and not having the buff there makes it a lot more challenging, having it makes it a walk in the park

plush tendon
#

Having a Venthyr in the group is almost essential; I wouldnt step into HoA without a Venthyr and if you do SD you want a Venthyr and abuse those cannisters

#

especially with the update to how they function and their location

#

What are the best stats, I'm seeing a lot of people prioritize the until before the versa, do you have to reach a cap of some stat?

hot sky
#

I know it's weird but I'm leveling a prot warrior (mechagnome, for more cringe) and I'm thinking of equipping it versa / crit with leggo reprisal, how do you see it? (rbg focus)

#

thanks in advance

plush tendon
hot sky
#

nah vers is main stat in pvp, im thinkin in change haste per crit

#

maybe mix it up

#

but mainly crit thinkin

plush tendon
#

uhhhh that seems like a bad idea, but you do you

hot sky
#

just theorycrafting

#

why?

plush tendon
#

haste= lower CD SB, more GCDs for more rage, which means more dam and def

hot sky
#

u know the pvp gear its not all about crit/vers

#

the offparts i cant crit i go haste :/

plush tendon
#

I honestly cant tell you; if you are gearing for RBGs then just do you.

hot sky

thanks 4 the info

a little disappointed with the copies of the mechagnome tbh lol

even while he refuses to show up 50% of raids

only 9 SW casts and 5 LS casts over 30 minutes ๐Ÿ‘€

Ye i know

Just kidding

wild sandal

so i should do more IP or less?

sweet summit

use it to avoid overcapping rage

tbh

light thicket

More cd usage i think

You probably keep saving them thinking youll need them later on

biggest question tho did he condemn enough? keksquad

Guys, I got 220 legs and 171 boots. Should i still craft Reprisal on legs and hope to get better boots soon or just get the boots now?

sweet summit
#

just do boots

cunning harness
#

@edgy void do you have access to mythic SLG legs?

sweet summit
#

no big difference

cunning harness
#

if not craft the legs you will get boots later

#

in the long run the legs are more stats

edgy void
#

Nah. we still need to get by councel, inerva and sludge

cunning harness

Then just make the legs for sure

edgy void

before i can get a chance at mythic slg

the secret to leggos is understanding that 235 is a waste of resources unless you literally have nothing else to ash up

"Scrapped mythic Uldir peice - got 10 residium

uneven mason

but the cost of the 235

modern brook
#

opprotunity

uneven mason
#

true

modern brook

the upgrade from 225->235 is literally another legendary at like 210

uneven mason

since the jump doubles

modern brook
#

or just under

uneven mason
#

yup

#

just under 2k

#

why my reprisal is still 225

solid cairn
#

so i should just craft a 225 one and not a 235

modern brook
#

if you have nothing else you want to make theres no reason not to make a 235

but if you want multiple legendaries for different content

nah dps are always out of range

light thicket
autumn ingot
#

you guys should try running with the 3 leaps its actually not that bad

#

all jokes aside

mighty valley
#

3 leaps seems like kiting overkill lol

modern brook
#

all jokes aside yall should stop running its march kiting died in like early feb

light thicket
#

I've never had to use more than 1 leap

#

But ill take your word for it

mighty valley
#

just need to kite long enough to drop necrotic or dog bleeds these days

autumn ingot
#

yeah exactly kiting, with 3 leaps you can do big pulls and use spear and leave ravager around the mobs to maintain aggro while you can just hop in and out repeat

#

I just did 3 big pulls like it wasnt a big deal at all

light thicket
#

But you gpt so little damage that way

#

Why not stay and spam revenge

autumn ingot
#

you still can but since there is gonna be like a lot of monsters hitting you, the stacks go up three times faster than a normal pull so you can just leave a ravager before you hop out so that you can still maintain the aggro

#

stacks reset and repeat

tardy parcel
#

kyrian phial with kleia to stay in place for 8 seconds... big brain

modern brook
#

I've said it before: just use the shield. Necrotic stacks barely affect us

jagged pier
#

i mean u dont need to kite till like 40-50 stacks anyways

autumn ingot
#

yeah I have that too, I think it also depends on how good the dps but so far big pulls like what im doing rn takes awhile for us to clear it

#

so 3 leaps are actually good for this week idk you guys should definitely try it

jagged pier
#

i dunno 40-50 stacks pot 40-50 stacks leap

#

packs dead

tardy parcel
#

you are also definitely losing a significant amount of damage by not being there to damage the mobs yourself

#

which might be part of why they're staying up for so long

jagged pier
#

i do around if not more damage in aoe than some classes now in pugs

#

so if i leave packs take a long time

autumn ingot
#

I mean you can still do a lot of damage sicne you can leave your ravager while resetting the stacks

jagged pier
#

ravager doesnt do that much damage

autumn ingot
#

hop out leave ravager + spear

#

thats enough to make up for it

light thicket
#

Ravager isnt that much dmg honestly

jagged pier
#

so you rnot using spear with avatar

plush tendon
#

This seems like a lot of effort to be playing sub optimally

jagged pier
#

thats a yikes

light thicket
#

Exactly

autumn ingot
#

so basically this playstyle is hopping in and out

jagged pier
#

sounds shit to me

tardy parcel
#

this also unfortunately definitely will not help you hold aggro on big packs unless you have like an md or tricks

light thicket
#

Why do all this whrn you can just stay

hot oxide
#

sounds like VDH to me

plush tendon
#

I mean, you do you. But I wouldnt recommend anyone do this

autumn ingot
#

double time talent is a must on thsi build too

light thicket
#

Have 8 secs of SB for free and revenge procs

jagged pier
#

and it seems so is leapers so your leggo gives no offensive or defensive value against a boss

#

in tyran week

autumn ingot
#

wait how is it not going to maintain my aggro

What

Why would anyone do that.

#

Except for "Lol, i like it"

jagged pier
small marsh
#

Leaper isn't giving you anything for aggro

autumn ingot
#

also I only have 8% versatility so that makes me vulnerable even more

languid flower
#

because when you're pushing mythic+ that you can't actually tank, you have to do somethign else.

ionic fern
#

What key levels?

small marsh
#

Ravager and Spear are not from leaper

autumn ingot
#

hopping in and out with double time and 3 leapos legos is actually pretty good

Okay, so...before this thing gets out of hand.
If you like to play Leaper - do it.
But it's by no means/necessary/optimal.

autumn ingot

with my leaper im 212

but with my wall im 215

#

still working my way up

wanton condor
#

I did my first 15 in the low 200s?

languid flower
#

@autumn ingot do try to farm up for reprisal, though. used to leap a lot, but with reprisal I find I can stay in.

ionic fern

If you feel like you're getting wrecked in a +14 and need to kite a lot please post logs and i'll be happy to help you out and get tankier.

jagged pier

โ˜๏ธ

languid flower
#

obviously not every pull, though

autumn ingot
#

how do I post logs

ionic fern
#

I can guarantee you that it's your playstyle that's forcing you to kite.

languid flower
#

haven't tried this week, but I'm prepared to swap in my hoppin' boots depending on how things go

jagged pier
#

u dont need to kite this week really

#

we arent based of healing ourselves

just mitigation

If you feel like you want help you can also just stream a key for me and i can let you know what you are doing wrong on voice. ๐Ÿคท

But im just lazy

Most people don't like it tho since "But you're mean!! AND I KNOW BEST!!!"

I got 16 key last two weeks ago but I blew it up because we were getting wipe a lot and samething with my 15 key Ireally thought I could get out of 14

You want to discourage me from playing prot

i mean Mwahi knows best

Maybe some people enjoy being verbally abused by Mwahi

autumn ingot

does anyone here doing 20+ keys?

jagged pier
#

mwahi

That is racist

Wait I can have Mwahi narrate my keys morgan freeman style?

I'm a slacker.

I'm still like 29 NF renown.

autumn ingot

I cant even imagine running 20+ mythic level

ionic fern

And 218 ilvl.

jagged pier
#

if mwahi told me to run MW i would consider it

ionic fern
#

๐Ÿ˜‚

autumn ingot
#

it seems impossible to time a 20+ key as a prot warrior

jagged pier
#

probably due to your playstyle

autumn ingot
#

yeah I probably should farm my reprisal before hitting higher dungeons levels

cinder storm
#

Whats your comp?

autumn ingot
#

I dont have a comp I just hop in LFG its basically whatever for me

ebon hound

I'll do it for free.

Nothing better than yelling at random people after a hard day at work.

Thats your issue imo @autumn ingot

Once i got guildies and fun people

autumn ingot

yeah nobody wants to run with me even my guildies just straight up ignoring me now

jagged pier
#

i pugged 17s/18s but i cba to put in the effort to go higher

autumn ingot
#

I think its just because of my playstyle

@ionic fern you stream? can you shoot me a link

ionic fern

No.

When i think about pugging i get anxious just thinking about it

i'll check them out

pugging is not that bad tbh

high keys arent fun in general

They are. ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

If you get a full premade.

jagged pier
#

but maybe that cause i dont have a group

ionic fern
#

Otherwise..no.

plush tendon
#

Ill pug all the 14-16s in the world

#

anything higher and the bat signal goes out

autumn ingot
#

for me its difficult to find a solid group because of my playstyle

#

thats why nobody wants to run with me so maybe if I can change up my legendary that would also change my playstyle so everyone can run with me no problem

jagged pier

no dps likes trying to dps when mobs are constantly moving

i have loot a 213 chest but i loose 80 versa for 80 mastery the second stat is critic

Im feeling like I wanna skip this week I have already done my first 14 key for vault so I can just farm up my torg and get reprisal

ionic fern

Still your best video btw @patent osprey

if its high ilvl its and upgrade

Should i use the 213 over the 200 one if i have only 12.5% vers?$

you dont care about stats

until the items are the same ilvl

the upgrade is gonna cost a lot too which is bad

how can Plka see with that ui? does he play on a huge 40inch?

ill post my recent run here, it was close and had a bunch of wipes but still got the timer lol

I was actually running with the wall and bolster

How do you all feel about the 60 days sub change?

?

crisp dragon
jagged pier

thats just a 2 months sub no?

crisp dragon
#

ye, but u cant buy 30 days anymore

jagged pier
#

oh meh

#

dont matter

mighty valley
#

stealth price increase since 60 and 90 used to be better deals overall

jagged pier
#

i get 6 months

#

cause free shit

#

and good price

๐Ÿคท

mental scarab
#

^

jagged pier
#

and the best part when u get the free shit and use it you get salty whispers

mighty valley
#

oh hmm, this is unrelated to subs completely

#

so yeah, our six month subs are unaffected

#

hurray

hot oxide
#

hmmm

#

so i pay gold for my play time

#

me thinks its gonna cost more

jagged pier
#

youll just have to buy 2 tokens

#

or the toekn will be worth more money

#

hence more gold

#

wont change anything will still cost the same over 2 months

hot oxide
#

probably why they did it

#

tokens are like dirt freaking cheap

#

137k for 6 months

#

errrrr

#

1 month

jagged pier
#

so it will probs be 274k for 2 months

#

its literally the same price

#

well form what i would think anyway

distant crystal
#

i think you can still pop one token for 1 month

#

tokens already had a price hike built in

#

it's just for ppl that were buying game time a la carte, i think

#

niya or korayn for raids?

dark lark

Niya

#

Korayn loses value in long fights

Ie any raid boss

toxic prairie
#

Anyone got a link for Plka s threat plates ? Also, just switched from prot pally to warrior, loving everything other then healing myself with bad healers

lyric sonnet
#

just made a prot warrior

#

is necrolord the wave?

toxic prairie
#

F that, venthyr baby!

lyric sonnet
#

venthyr def not the move

#

60% of the boss fight youre not doing shit with that

toxic prairie
#

You right, you right . But I pvp and fury Pve so@@@@

lyric sonnet
#

oh well im prot

toxic prairie
#

Well yea, I am also

lyric sonnet
#

venthyr bis for others definitely

#

condemn the wave for fury/arms

uneven mason
#

also hits harder than Revenge

#

so its like a revenge + IP

#

at once.

#

for a discount

lyric sonnet
#

ya but like im going for raid surv right

uneven mason
#

The major drawback of condem nis its only available 40% of a fight

lyric sonnet
#

i see only kyrian and necrolord

#

being viable for that

uneven mason
#

wat

#

ok

#

I suppose a 12 - 20 % max HP buff is horrible

lyric sonnet
#

is that venth?

short phoenix
#

legs or boots for shield block lego?

uneven mason
#

thats Nightfae

#

Venthyr have a 10% DR under 40% health, or big mastery/big haste

#

Niya buffs your HP when you aftershock (and randomly from attacks)

#

but aftershock is basically an instant 12% heal

toxic prairie
#

Venthyr has that take 10 percent less damage under 40 percent though which helps

uneven mason
#

not everything, but not nothing either.

#

yeah Nadjia is the play for Venth still IMO

#

the 10% DR is nice

#

but, all that haste

#

on a reliable timer.

lyric sonnet
#

if your doing raid surv and not draven thats a troll for sure

chilly brook
#

No

#

Lol

#

Draven is basically not that worth it

#

You shouldn't be under 40% to begin with

#

And what you're ignoring is that the huge haste buff from Nadjia is not only reliable and nice for damage BUT ITS ALSO GOOD FOR SURVIVABILITY

#

I guess condemn is shit for survivability too

#

Amirite

green apex
#

is it better to keep shield blocks up or spam ignore pain more trying to get my defensive cds down better cause been messing around with my warrior

chilly brook
#

Vs what damage

#

Can you block it?

green apex
#

just in general

#

reason im asking

chilly brook
#

In general if you can block it

#

You shield block over anything else

green apex
#

so like trash in m+

#

just keep shield block?

mighty valley
#

yes, while you're being punched, keep up shield block as much as possible,

chilly brook
#

Depends on the trash lol but if you can block it you block

green apex
#

yah like casters use ignore pain

chilly brook
#

Use IP as needed

#

Bit block is your main mitigation.

gaunt crane
#

I got bargast leash from a quest today, can that be good? probably not right ๐Ÿ˜„

light thicket
#

Also only while getting hit

gaunt crane

figured

light thicket
#

No use blocking when everything is stunned

#

alright i get it now i just getting bored of always on my dh

so i went warrior and trying to get it down again

Not much different than DH

"Pressing buttons matters"

You dont use spikes if it's not physical

"not really different than slapping your face into your keyboard and healing while being immune to damage"

DH is literally prot slapped together with DK and some other stuff

Actually I kid, they do have to press buttons

its just that their button press is like 5 of ours at once

Bonesmith is probably the straight up best for survival, as it gives you healers 10s to react and get a brez ready

eh, they'll still be super strong

Not even sure if they are getting needed.

chilly brook

I mean losing 15% magic DR is huge

Yeah it would be if it actually happened. Iโ€™ll believe it when I see it

wanton condor
#

have they been nerfed?

vestal moat
#

No.

wanton condor
#

gonna say, if bliz is happy with their performance

#

I wouldn't expect the change

green apex
#

i mean they nerfed thunder clap hard in bfa

chilly brook
#

What does that say about everyone else's spec lol

green apex
#

when warriors were the go to tanks in m+

patent osprey
#

I was pinged!

#

what did i miss?1

wanton condor
#

like the WW and MM bugfixes were part of a larger tuning pass

chilly brook
#

We were still go to after the nerf to UF

plush tendon
chilly brook
#

Just simply because we could block basically everything

#

And we still did big dam

#

And it was just an actually genuinely fun and well designed spec....

green apex
#

yah right now i think pallys are the 2nd go too cause of their damage output right

plush tendon
#

Also, spell reflect was super powerful in BFA

chilly brook

Nah pally isn't

They're memes in keys

plush tendon

Guardian right now is the 2nd 'go-to'

the tankiest tanks out there

PLKA, can I get a link to your threat plates? Love em

uneven mason
toxic otter
#

the only thing pally has to be in melee range to use is hammer of the righteous

patent osprey
toxic otter
#

and you can get aroudn that with blessed hammer

#

other than that you have better range to do damage than any other tank

#

J/AS/HoW are all 30 yds, SotR is extended via bulwark legendary

toxic prairie
#

Hey no problem, tell them they did a great job!

languid flower
#

So mastery really only gets good at unattainable levels of master, doesn't it?

#

like it starts crap, and gradually gets better, but we can't make it to where it's good

#

40% mastery gives 40% critical block chance.

#

We'd have to be at 70+ before it's reliable enough for bossfights

#

big groups it's basically a strait reduction in melee damage because that's how probabilities work, but even then it's only 30% (DR) of the 40% (chance), since we were already blocking 30% of the damage.

#

dammit, I miss legion

plush tendon
#

uhhh sure?

languid flower
#

also, why'd you take my reforgers? I've got 25% mastery to reforge...

chilly brook
#

Mastery is good regardless?

plush tendon
#

Bigger question, my friend was able to Tmog Stromgar as his weapon while in prot, so hes wielding a 2h even though hes prot

#

How does one accomplish this

chilly brook
#

It worked literally the same way in Legion

languid flower
#

You got more crit block% chance in legion

chilly brook
#

The only difference is you had one CD that could force crit blocks

languid flower
#

I think more per mastery

chilly brook
#

I'm gonna go with a nope

languid flower
#

My memory is faulty, but I thought I had a 70% crit block chance in legion

chilly brook
#

And even if it did Legion warrior isn't anything like BFA or SL

#

That sounds very faulty

toxic otter
#

uh math wrong

chilly brook
#

Up to*

toxic otter
#

but idea right

sweet summit
#

crit block is blocks twice the normal block amount

chilly brook
#

^

sweet summit
#

up to 85% dr?

toxic otter
#

if you block 30%

sweet summit
#

i think?

chilly brook
languid flower
#

normal blocks are ~30%, ya?

sweet summit
#

depends

languid flower
#

so crit blocks are ~60%, ya?

sweet summit
#

with a 220 shield in a mythic dungeon its roughly 30% dr

toxic otter
#

if a normal block is ~30%, then you take 57% of the damage of a blocked hit when you crit block

#

e.g. comparing during shield block

languid flower
#

wait wait wait, it COMPOUNDS

toxic otter
#

all DR works like that

chilly brook
#

so for m+ assuming 226 is 1628 block, your default block DR % is 40%

toxic otter
#

it gets relatively stronger the more of it you have

distant crystal
#

seems like it'd be way better used for dps in p2?

toxic otter
#

this is most obvious if you compare going from 99 to 100% damage reduction vs 0% to 1%

#

adding DR is huge

#

multiplying DR is not

languid flower
#

but block and crit block are treated differently?

#

I would have guessed a crit block just doubled the block number

toxic otter
#

it does

#

which is an additive effect over regular block

chilly brook
languid flower
#

so then where'd the 57% come from? why not 60?

toxic otter
#

because I was comparing being at 70% dmg taken to 40% dmg taken1

#

in something like shield block

languid flower
#

oh oh oh,

#

okay, so crit block does stack (not compound) with regular block

sweet summit
languid flower
#

but if you look at damage remaining, you are reducing that by more than 30%

chilly brook
#

??

toxic otter
#

yes

chilly brook
#

This is super simple

#

You're making it way too complex

#

You block

#

You then roll for crit block

languid flower
#

I'm hit for 100 damage unblocked

chilly brook
#

If you crit block you block double the % youd normally

languid flower
#

if I block, that's now 70 damage

#

if I crit, it's 40 damage

chilly brook
#

Yes

#

Up to a maximum of 85% dr

languid flower
#

what ~~griff ~~ @toxic otter was saying is that 40/70 = 57%. I only take 57% of the damage that was left after I had already blocked

chilly brook
#

That's not what I said?

sweet summit
#

????????

chilly brook
#

At all

toxic otter
#

that was me

languid flower
#

oh sorry

#

fixed

#

that said, I don't usually take a "damage remaining" perspective on things

sweet summit
#

idk whats going on

#

but

chilly brook
#

Theres no damage remaining perspective?

#

Mastery is good

sweet summit
#

lets say block is 30% dr

chilly brook
#

Leave it at that

toxic otter
#

whether or not it makes sense to do so depends on whether or not you have high chance to block

languid flower
#

I'm trying to figure out why mastery isn't the most important stat now that we have reprisal

sweet summit
#

a crit block is then twice that, which is 60%

chilly brook
#

We guarentee blocks

#

Our block chance is irrelevant

sweet summit
#

because mastery is rng, just like crit

#

vers is constant

toxic otter
#

so a crit block is not a 30% DR gain

#

it's a 43% DR gain

sweet summit
#

and haste is more rage/cdr on everything

chilly brook
chilly brook
languid flower
#

but if you tank a group of 6, the probabilities even out (because you're taking so many hits). the more enemies you face, the closer to a true DR it becomes

elfin nova
#

that is absolutely how you should compare dr though

#

you can't say 'it's 30%!'

#

it's so inaccurate

chilly brook
#

Its double the dr of block

#

That's not inaccurate

sweet summit
#

never said 'it's 30%!' peepostudy

elfin nova
#

well then what's the problem

sweet summit
#

not sure

elfin nova
#

magnus did seem to suggest he didn't want to look at it like that

chilly brook
#

Magnus also overanalyzes the answers

#

ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

elfin nova
#

it's the same thing as vers getting better defensively the more you have of it and whatever else like that

chilly brook
#

Nothing against him

elfin nova
#

it matters how much dr you had from the same effect already

chilly brook
#

But it's really as simple as it sounds

#

And partially part of why we don't stack it very hard is because you already have access to big mastery procs btw

languid flower
#

It's a perspective thing. You can look at it like this:

  1. 100 damage hit, 70 damage blocked hit, 40 damage crit blocked hit. saves 30 damage from being taken.
  2. block reduces by 30%, crit block reduces an additional 42% (compounded)
  3. block reduces by 30%, crit block reduces an additional 30%(stacked)
elfin nova
#

it's not a perspective thing

sweet summit
#

wait what

languid flower
#

what do you mean bigger mastery procs, @chilly brook ?

sweet summit
#

pelagos/niya conduits

elfin nova
#

math doesn't have perspectives

languid flower
#

math does have perspectives

sly summit
#

Hi there, why is demoralizing shout 30 second cd for me instead of 45?

sweet summit
#

pvp talent

languid flower
#

that's why we can solve problems by different approaches, all equally correct.

lofty widget
#

Those approaches should conclude the same tho, which it doesnt look like to me (i am also bad at math)

languid flower
#

it doesn't matter whether you take the derivative of your displacement or the integral of your acceleration, you get velocity all the same.

#

Yes, all of these approaches reach the same result

#

because I critically block, I took 30 less damage

#

what you compare that to is what determines the % DR, and I'm trying to clarify that @toxic otter is comparing it to something different than @chilly brook

autumn ingot
blazing condor
#

i like the title

autumn ingot

let me know what needs to be fix lmao

pelagos/niya conduits

chilly brook
hot oxide
#

well, off the top of my head...stop charging through green goo!

blazing condor
#

@autumn ingot i can see directly on the first boss that you shouldve charged in instead of running in and probably ravaged on pull

#

what happened is that you jumped in and TCd which isnt enough to hold aggro

chilly brook
#

I need lunch before I go workout what do I get? Chipotle?

autumn ingot
#

oh okay

blazing condor
#

youre also only 204 ilvl which is gonna be a factor as well

amber herald
#

don't use the third kyrian soulbind it's bad for tanks because of all the knockbacks

autumn ingot
#

I didnt know the mechanics so I was just doing whatever lol

blazing condor
#

as well as having low haste

hot oxide
blazing condor
#

Ravager > charge > revenge > tc usually does the trick

autumn ingot
#

so more haste okay

hot oxide
#

isn't it charge>ravage>revenge?

blazing condor
#

i usually toss ravager before charging

#

just to get one global of it in

lofty widget
#

Pre ravage saves a global

hot oxide
#

makes sense

autumn ingot
#

so ravager charge then revenge tc

blazing condor
#

also @autumn ingot from seeing how you entered the first pack after 1st boss you should revenge more often

#

as well as pre-ravaging

#

its fine to kyrian spear in the beginning for it

autumn ingot
#

yeah I keep pressing 7 which is my bind for whirlwind but I was actually trying to press 6 which is the revenge binding

blazing condor
#

ah

autumn ingot
#

I have the conduits for revenge and tc

blazing condor
#

also you never really need to use Hamstring like, at all

autumn ingot
#

Idk why I still keep my whirlwind it shouldnt be in there lol

mighty valley
#

yeah take that off, literally no use

hot oxide
timber lagoon
#

I use it in spiteful weeks

autumn ingot
#

haha I keep it for extra heal

timber lagoon
#

But that's it

mighty valley
#

if you're accidentally hitting other buttons a lot, might be worth finding some alternate keybinds it's easier to hit

timber lagoon
#

Extra, heal?

hot oxide
#

need to charge more also, walking into mobs leaves you down a bit

autumn ingot
#

yeah I probably should change my keybinds a bit

hot oxide
#

do you have your spear and ravage on keybind at cursor?

mighty valley
#

is that a stam flask? better off with power

hot oxide
#

if not, get that done

ionic fern
#
  1. Charge into packs.
    2)Use Ravager/Spear on CD
    3)You are overlaping SW/SB a lot..you are on full health and you're popping both of them (check 4:50)
    4)You're rage capping - use IP to prevent this as it's not on GCD.
    5)Why are you randomly using SR?
#

ANd this is from the first 5 minutes of the video.

autumn ingot
#

yeah indomitable heals you for every 10 rage

ionic fern
#

๐Ÿ‘€

amber herald
#

why no dbm or bigwigs?

blazing condor
#

@autumn ingot last thing im gonna say cus i g2g but also trying to plan ahead is a good thing. When you kill the pride at 6:45 you use both ravager and spear of bastion - something that could be useful for the AOE burst in the next pack

hot oxide
#

he had no idea about packs

#

so that's understandable

timber lagoon
autumn ingot
#

oh okay, yeah will do thanks goodstuffe

#

man I should really be listing all of this down huh

timber lagoon
#

@autumn ingot gotta say good on you for posting a video and asking for feedback

languid flower
#

oh damn, niya's mastery does factor in to the +, which means it hits DR

blazing condor
#

yeah its more of an experience thing tbh

There is a spreadsheet and a weakaura that can tell you which spells or abilities you can reflect.

Big damage

autumn ingot

Reaping Scythe on the last boss is huge.

And in general targeted abilities that are casted on you can also be reflected.

No, since not all are interruptable.
