idk, i guess it only becomes a problem if someone gets bootyhurt and reports you either way

strong forum

no clue

#

but you can obv talk like normal human beings outside of the game

like, id be scared to explain smth

actually i think criticism itself isnt even allowed

cuz youre not supposed to know how someone is performing

As if you can't just...tell

#

Lmao

strong forum
#

bro how do people handle the game if theyre not logging or without dmg meters

#

if its 6man content, and youre not wiping, you cant tell who is underperforming and who isnt

#

since the roles arent as clear cut as in wow

#

tanks arent pure tanks or some shit

You could

There are animations and such

damn i just agreed to some bullshit new blizzard ToS

gimme feedback

i want to know if im doing better or not and not just by "feelycraft"

waxen cradle
#

Well let me put it this way I trolled someone in ff14 before I stopped playing and got in trouble for it, we were doing a dungeon or a Duty as they call them and we wiped on one of the bosses so I trolled a guy and told him the wrong way to do the fight so he died purposely on the next pull and then asked him why he died again and said he needed to learn the dungeon

#

long story short he knew I just trolled him and got pissed and I got in trouble

Hello guys, need some guidance.
Whats prefered for mythic sire: 222.63 ilvl, 16.91% haste(pre ItF), 26% verse
OR 222.25 ilvl, 25.64% haste(pre ItF), 17% verse

strong forum
#

25 haste

#

imo

#

those 4.5% dmg reduction from vers wont change shit

#

but getting a whopping 9% haste is defo more beneficial

waxen cradle
#

All things considered even the whole safe space thing I would play ff14 again if not for the 100+ story hours to get into end game content

strong forum
#

a few people i know literally just boosted insta

inland raft
#

wont lie looked at ff14 for first time the other day and the amount of time it looks to even start is pretty intimidating

strong forum
#

they never played FF, but insta boosted past the story shit

inland raft
#

im just so set in my ways with wow, mmos are such an investment

strong forum
#

since endgame is still the main game

waxen cradle
#

I think you can only boost up to the current story right ?

sick sentinel
#

haste

waxen cradle
#

so boost to like its Shadowbringer right now ?

strong forum
#

no clue

#

i just know that the skip is worth it

sick sentinel
#

haste means you can activate more shieldblocks, which is better value than dmg red from versa

also 222 is quite low this late into the tierpeepostudy

Also that dogshit mastery neck isn't by chance sin stained necklace?

hello! new to prot, just had a question about ignore pain, how exaclty does this skill work? does this ignore X dmg during the uptime for each hit recieved or is it like a mage shield and only blocks X amount of dmg

sweet summit
#

it absorbs 50% of all damage taken up to x amount of damage absorbed

sick sentinel
#

alrighty thank you peepoHappy

#

still struggle with theatre of pain

#

tried it on a 13, fell apart at last boss

fallow jasper
#

to be fair, that boss is on the harder side

misty timber
#

It’s really tough. She’s one of the only m+ bosses that overlap multiple deadly mechanics the whole group needs to deal with.

You can’t reflect every scythe so make sure you have it for the first and 3rd vortexes. They are the most dangerous.

The biggest improvement I’ve felt myself is always moving back to near where she spawns. It’s pretty to easy to dodge all the p2 blue guys from there (there might be better spots but it’s worked for me at 15)

You can throw in Lightless in m+ for a teensy bit of more dps but obv 0 surv gain

For raid you can throw in sinful for a teensy but of more dps but obv 0 surv gain

Ye, idk if my guild will take me on rekills with my new 200 ilvl tank xD

So wait, revenge triggers at the start of the charge not at the end?

jagged pier

Its the proc not a revenge

#

And start i believe

daring bay
#

Ohh right, i assumed it would use revenge when reading it. Then when it didnt i was like "defuk!"

#

But thats a good chunk of rage on every pull

jagged pier
#

It gives 'Revenge!'

#

Thats the buff

daring bay
#

Makes sense :)

ionic fern

It's on cast/start jep.

daring bay

and regarding the booming voice talent, the debuff on enemies dont show that i deal 20% more dmg to them. Blizz just forgot right?

Ok, i got a massive urge to actually test it on a dummy. Thankfully it does increase my dmg.

If yu have reprisal u want to run bcs in m+

Waaat, but ravager and Dshour lines up so well together :(

You can play Demo shout if you want to but in general BSC provides more value when ran together with Reprisal.

Yeah, not arguing with its efficiency :) just a shame since i liked booming voice quite a bit

Anyone know if its possible to have a mouseover macro only work when you hover over party frames? i have

#

#showtooltip
/cast [harm,nodead] Charge; [@mouseover,exists,help,nodead][@player] Intervene

#

Just dont want the scenarios where i am ready to charge in and i intervene onto a random dude my mouse is hovering over

strong forum
#

Put intervene first

#

It's a prio list

#

If you put charge infront of intervene, you will only intervene when you can't charge

#

If you put intervene first, it'll always intervene if you have mouseover a friendly

#

Ah you dont want that

#

Na, @mouseover will always work on friendlies, don't think you can make it party frames exclusive

#

You can prevent the mouseover issue from happing if you hold your mousebuttons

#

You can't mouseover smth if your mouse is clicked

signal plover
#

Yeh that's the only straightforward workaround afaik

#

Other than a separate keybind

#

Which kinda defeats the purpose

daring bay
#

Yeah, i used to have neither charge or intervene on mouseover. But its kinda annoying clicking a melee everytime i wanna intervene

#

But, i try the mouseholding techniqe and worse case scenario me intervening somone prepull isnt gonna end the world :V

I did that on purpose on sludge

party frames intervene is better than -clickclickclickclickclick- all around you trying to hit a team mate

What do you guys think I should pick up from vault? Going to be tanking sire tonight.
Head/wep would both be solid 6 ilvl increase, but I'm considering trinket due to only having Skulker's and Council trinket so far.

That necklace is BiS

#

Trinket would be a waste to pick from vault, and should only use it if youre scared of dying.

what i was having issue with on the last boss of TOP more specifically was the direction which the ghosts were charging

Yeah that's generally what happens

You forget the 4th charger where he's going

Cuz he comes so late

The close 3 are easy, but the 4th, the one that's directly opposite to you gets easily missed

i'll probably find a cheese spot for it where they can't run or spawn some shit like final boss of ML

there was a tiny part of corner on a sqaure and micro missiel never hit u there, so it was default stack location

rate this

and give feedback how to make it better

I rate it

"vers / haste"

The last 2 frames should be the same text on the board

So I cba'd hard enough to tank it myself

Same in legion when m+ came out, tanked cuz I didn't want shit tanks

i got ksm with seismic reverberation just because i hated torghast and it was the only legendary i had

I became tank one evening in Scholonance, because 4 mates wanted to go their. I hadn't specct prot before, needed to buy a shield from a vendor. But after 4h full of wipes and many laughing in voice chat I was addictated

unique shale

get pi and go brrrrrrrrrrr

tame jasper
#

took some time to get raid-tank, because raid/guidlleads gf was maintank - well until valestraze, where she was blow by all others and dps said: change tanks or we quit

i became tank cause i loved getting hit

true story

now that im NF im prob gonna actually put a little effort into pushing my IO a bit.

do you guys find yourself taking a lot of damage in spires?

from trash

fleet river

yes it is a very high magic damage dungeon

sick sentinel
fleet river
#

makes me very grateful to have almost 15% avoidance

sick sentinel
#

this is dk vs paladin, but it could be modified for PW

hollow sun
#

my healer complained a lot ( it was a 17) but my block uptime was 75%, not exceptional but ok

fleet river
#

block doesn't really help against magic damage

#

heavily coordinating kicks is the only way to be happy in spires. short of that, getting good use out of ignore pain and spell reflect are your best hopes

hollow sun
#

hmm

undone verge
#

ignore pain go

hollow sun
#

the 2nd source of damage was dark seeker

#

so i prob need to be more in melee

#

of that mob

undone verge
#

so much ignore pain

#

so much pain

high folio
#

sync up the casts w a stun and watch the pack fall over

hollow sun
#

yeah i did

#

usually the packs with the humanoid mobs are a problem

undone verge
#

what key levels?

hollow sun
#

well

#

17-18 for now

undone verge
#

well my 16 wont really be any help

#

its usually just interrupts and spell reflects

#

try to keep ignore pain up

fleet river
#

you also have an aoe fear, an aoe stun, and a single target stun

undone verge
#

IF you choose storm bolt

#

I go dt

#

always liked it

high folio
#

DT all day w reprisal

fleet river
#

storm bolt owns

#

even with reprisal

undone verge
fleet river
#

i'd probably go dt if i'm pugging though

undone verge
#

dt is so usefull

fleet river
#

i dont pug much any more

undone verge
#

I only pug

high folio
#

not going dt is literally giving up a SB charge

fleet river
#

my group is full of mob disruption so block uptime matters less

#

having extra interrupts is more helpful

#

to me

#

like i said, i dont really pug any more on my warrior

hollow sun
#

it was actually a guild group but we aren't that good to do 18s without effort

#

what are the casts you proritize?

#

that dark lash hurts as well but it just doesn't stop casting it

fleet river
#

dark lash will wreck anyone

#

etherdivers stack their stuff up, being kyrian helps with that too

hollow sun
#

you mean the dot?

fleet river
#

yeah

hollow sun
#

but how do you deal with the lash

fleet river
#

dont let it cast lol

hollow sun
#

cause there is also burned of knowledge to interrupt

fleet river
#

i mean, there are a million ways to disrupt casts. you just have to lock them down until they are dead

jagged pier
#

Learning to stack ether casts and SRing is awesome

fleet river
#

its gonna differ a lot based on group comp

i have to do either TOP or spires for progression towards all 10's that allows me to take my valor gear past 207

undone verge

top is my favorite dungeon

sick sentinel

not me, fuck that place

all dungeons that require good interrupt are a a bitch on inspiring weeks

we are tornado and bolster week, boss week

undone verge
#

why do people hate top 😦

modern brook
#

stinky rng dungeon

sick sentinel
#

because the teleporter doesn't take you to your latest cleared/safe landing pad

#

so you waste at least 2 minutes walking back after u die to black tornadoes

thin nexus
#

can you spell reflect multiple spells at once if theyre cast in a similar time period?

#

it always feels like you can but i dont have confirmation

sick sentinel
#

i feel like if you cleared 1 platform, it should remember that, and send you to the next one, possibly highlights both portal clicky thingies so you know which are connected

hollow sun
#

@thin nexus you can

thin nexus
#

πŸ™‚

hollow sun
#

like the birds in spires

#

it was ike this in pvp as well

#

if two spells were launched at the same moment you could reflect both

sick sentinel
#

way i learned it was

distant crystal
#

first boss temple of seth never 4get

sick sentinel
#

you get a shadow bolt single target spell cast on you, maybe curse whatever, it goes back

#

do you think they will come back?

#

or it was unintentional

honest plinth

they are here btw in some places

#

but mobs are evading dmg

rancid ember

Blizz trying to remove snaps all together. People still finding some, but they're not nearly as rampant as BFA

honest plinth
#

for 5 seconds or so

rancid ember
#

My group tried the Amarth snap recently, but I don't it's worth it tbh felt weird

hollow sun
#

i saw one in sd but mobs just evade

rancid ember
#

They usually evade like 5-6 seconds, and aggro coming off the evade is a big issue.

honest plinth
#

yes its anti snap protection

hollow sun
#

i also was able to snap the lubricator in dos to the 2nd boss to we would get a full pride on the boss but he keeps evading for a good 20s

rancid ember
#

That sounds weird tbh lol. Fuck drills skip both

honest plinth
#

the same thing when you pull souls on kultarok

#

they are evading for few seconds

rancid ember
#

Oh u sed lub mb,

#

My group tried that recently, but they teleported up to the boss platform, and then teleported back down and dropped aggro.

honest plinth
#

hmm idk im doing it in every run

rancid ember
#

Fixed or unlucky?

honest plinth
#

did it yday

rancid ember
#

You use an MD or just have a ranged pull 1-2?

honest plinth
#

ranged is pulling 3 souls

#

and im clicking on them like a mad madman

#

when they are on plat

hollow sun
#

why don't you pull them togheder with the others?

honest plinth
#

because of route

#

we are pulling big mob with 1st boss

and shrouding to kultarok

just killing 5 souls

blazing condor

The only correct strat is to pull a bunch of mobs onto the boss and bolster tf out of it

Which covenant is looking the best for raiding in 9.1 so far with the new soulbind rows, some of the traits look really strong, on paper at least

high folio
#

nf necro or kyrian

pine cypress
#

My warrior is a Venthyr currently but I am being called to tank next tier and its basically a fresh lvl 60, so switching isnt that big a setback currently

#

They all roughly even with eachother? new soulbind rows considered?

NF/Nec/Kyr I mean

sweet summit

shits not finalized, as of now nothing changes so kyrian>=nf with nf being more damage

besides no weapon durability (which we probably can't even choose) why would i want to do NF for keys

more damage then kyrian in aoe

is that your experieence?

sweet summit

nadjia πŸ₯Ί

just add in another column of conduits and we can choose whatever,

high folio

and condemn allows you to actually use execute without completely screwing your ability to mit some damage

sick sentinel
#

i still really want to re-roll venthyr for the shield and possibly raiding

high folio
#

its awesome on pull w lust bc youll burst really hard and you get a fatty absorb w the condemn spam

pine cypress
#

If you are actively tanking at the time though, iisnt the rage better spent on Ignore pain and/or Block?

high folio
#

depends

#

do you need ip or block?

#

are you taking enough damage to need more mitigitation then the aborb shield?

pine cypress
#

Most of the time I would assume yea on progression fights

high folio
#

again it depends

#

on pull you can spam the fuck out of condemn w lust and all your cds up

#

and your absorb stacks up prett quick

#

the for the next 60% of the bosses health tank like normal

#

then for the last 20% use it as much as you can

pine cypress
#

Hm, I might have to revaluate using condemn then, II had kinda written it off while tanking for the most part to be honest, I appreciate the input πŸ™‚

be smart w your resources of course but like being venthyr isnt going to make you magically get one shot by stuff and die all the time

i got my ksm as a venthyr prot warrior haha

i mean i running seismic

that still wouldnt explain how draven provides more damage over nadjia

pp sure dravens only offensive trait is that 4% strength thing

unique shale

if i am running seismic i have to make up for defensive lost for it

nadjia is sitll pretty defensive

you proc that baby lust a lot in keys, lots of resources and cd reduction

unique shale

10% damage reduction & 4% strength over what ?

that dmg reduction only kicks in if youre at like 40% health

at which for a prot warrior youre fucked already if you dip that low

sick sentinel

maybe, depends lol

and nadjia has euphoria, which is a 20% haste buff, and then theres either duelist for ST or the better enchants and food buffs one i forget what its called

not because of 2 legos

is there any reasons for going one way or the other?

Kyrian is slightly more defensive

if you are big on m+ there are far less kyrian than night fae typically

Most likely

Ah

tender pecan
#

Some of the new socket items are on pieces most people have leggos on

Ie Wall shoulders

I mean, things like Unhinged got chest added to their options when they already had wrist, hands, seems like it creates more socket problems than it solves, no?
