Hello,
Is warrior good in 9.1?

blazing condor

only if you got 25+% vers

ionic fern
#

Thank you.

Im saying no after the kyrain leggo

#

What were you expecting tho?
Looking at how "meh" the others were it was bound to be doomed.

#

Lower your expectations.

Smh

honestly it would've required quite a lot to give a good leggo and still not rip off the band-aid that is reprisal

More flexibility is good though; better insurance against not getting a particular drop

Nah, I was reading the wowhead changes page

is there really any reason why you cant put a leggo on any armor slot?

besides weapons/trinkets

Because Bliz hates crafters

Vdh needs to kite because their mitigation has too low uptime to tank

You can facetank pretty much anything now unless you got a mitigation gap

As much as possible when you have your highest ilvl gear

What weapon enchant should i use for m+?

Why do you want signet if we have that double revenge leggo

Hmm alright. Wouldn’t be such a problem when there wouldn’t be so much mastery on every item (beside pvp gear). Have about 38% mastery -.- at least there will be much more haste/Vers plate gear in SoD 🙂

If I can blast to music and can progress my character im all for it

i preferred doing builds like hammer/raekor or wahtever it was

#

you always blast music playing d3 doe

#

nothing to listen to

strong forum
#

Yeah but you stop progressing your character

#

Real quick

#

Then it just turns into an severe grind for augments and para levels

#

And thats when things get boring

blazing condor
#

wait im confused

#

u mean ww build doesnt end up there?

#

or did i read that wrong

strong forum
#

I'm talking about gear

blazing condor
#

yes for sure

#

eventually youre just gated by para levels

#

and not having primals/augments

strong forum
#

"eventually" you mean after 20hrs

#

Less even

blazing condor
#

well i mean yeah

#

depends on how lucky you are with gear

#

im not defending D3

#

just sounded like you said playing WW build was fun because that meant you could progress your character

strong forum
#

Usually around para 600-800 is when you only start to grind for the exact same gear

#

And augments /para levels

#

Luck isn't really needed in d3 anymore

strong forum
#

The build itself just is the most comfy

#

EQ barb I hate

#

Raekors doesn't have as good flow

blazing condor
#

nah ww is satisfying when you just keep moving smoothly through the dungeon

strong forum
#

Exactly

blazing condor
#

a bit more boring imo when it's a slow-but-steady burn

#

instead of burst

#

like with raekors where you'd just build up HOTA stacks

#

then bam

strong forum
#

Yeah but you have to stop

#

That's the boring part to me

#

Or to in circles to round up mobs

blazing condor
#

yep

#

idk d3 barb was fun but also boring

#

when you were really trying to push high grs

#

but im a bit biased cus i hated playing with the spear

#

cus it was janky asf

jagged pier
#

Why play barb when u can necro warrior and buff ppl basically the same thing

I only did speed grifts, pushing is boring

What kind of problems do you have in top?

#

skill issues lol

#

just spires now

blazing condor
#

anyone who's been trying PTR is there any place you can get keys?

mellow bridge
#

yes

#

you can buy keys on the top level of oribos

blazing condor
#

found it, thanks! 🙂

sick sentinel
#

which one is the platform that has the tricky pull here?

#

it's got a patrol or something you pull alone

tame jasper
#

the orange cats are hidden

#

on the green one with the goliath in the corner, you only want to pull the 3 wing guys

#

when the purple pat is not on top of them

blazing condor
#

I also think running the right side is generally easier than left

sick sentinel
#

fastest group ever, joined, buffed up, start key, pull 6 as marked on mdt, 10 deaths

blazing condor
#

not many squad leaders in packs making it go faster

#

the 15% damage anima power lookin p nice

#

but kind of boring having to stand still

#

easy to get greedy too i found

#

would rather just stand there and pump

#

Also can confirm the new cheat death is ass lmao

tame jasper
#

left side is good to get 80% pride at 3rd boss for tyrannical

sick sentinel
#

lasted 1 pull

#

i was using the MDT route from raider io weekly routes,
I'm not sure what went wrong here. but it said pull 6, so i did and we got deleted

rancid ember
#

Alot went wrong there. You really don't have to be moving around as much as you do.
You're also aiming to do a 10/11, just pull what you're comfortable with. You have tons of time in this dungeon to just pull groups 1 by 1 for sure. Even if your group presses you, you're the tank and it's a bolstering week. Better safe than sorry.

#

You could've stacked the melee on the casters a lot sooner once you had them pulled back but you kind of kept them separated so the bolstering was much harder to deal with on the last 3 mobs.

#

The goal on those big packs is to stack the mobs tight and fast so dps can do their job.

fierce field
#

If you go rght, you can reset 3rd boss, and pull the pack from the other side and get pride for 3rd that way too, don't need to go left

potent anvil
#

Mechanically, you spent quite a bit of time rage capped. Just spend on IP (for upkeep) or Revenge (for damage). You never shield walled. Shield Wall high or when you're about to drop mitigation so your healer doesn't have to focus too much on you.

high folio
#

youre also not using your SS reset, i saw you cast multiple TC's and Revenges w SS off cd

sick sentinel
#

alot of spells got off i noticed too, i'm pretty sure i didn't make an interupt

high folio
#

SS is your highest rage generating spell, wanna use that as much as possible

rancid ember
#

Yeah the spells are a problem. On that pack specifically you need to interrupt the 2 casters in the back pack so they come forwards out of the Goliath's patrol range.

sick sentinel
#

i recorded that TOP 10 i +2'd, but it would take all night to render

high folio
#

SS = shield slam btw

sick sentinel
#

recorded a few dungeons now. uploaded a PF and underrot video that were on time. just didnt have the storage before

sick sentinel
#

i went in solo, i think this is the safe play instead, kill first pack of 3 and then pull giant when he is here.

modern brook
#

you're moving a lot

#

to the detriment of your dps

#

you pull most of the mobs out of wild spirits at around 1:58

#

not to mention the flame patches

#

and u also stackedthe melee on your mage ran into melee while he was to channeling NF cov and he died to storming

#

Mostly pointing that out cause it made me laugh

sick sentinel
#

hmmm

modern brook
#

but you have a shield you dont need to be moving so much

#

IF you're finding you have to be kiting or you're not able to take the punches, look into some of the effeciency advice other people pointed out

#

casue yeah rage cap etc

sick sentinel
#

i have a few idea how to handle that pull, different ways just practice i suppose

rancid ember
#

Yeah for sure. If you want to double pull just assign 2 interrupts to the back casters to make sure they get pulled in. Ravager / Clap can do the rest. Also keep in the mind the melee guys have a frontal. Trying to make sure you're not pointing that frontal at a party member

#

Find a spot and get that Protection up

modern brook
#

u just line them here

#

its a double or triple pull depending on your DPS comp

#

tag tag pull to there ravager get ranged kicks if ur dps dont know how LOS work

#

then u face them so they're facing u into the wall for the cleave

#

and your dps kills them*

#

You should never have to leave that corner

#

Like its the first pull so you have EVERY cooldown available

#

can just be in that fight for like 45 seconds straight

muted arch
#

id suggest actually pulling them to the pillar right infront of the font

#

that way no one bodies that goliath, especially on bolstering week

#

mount over and grab everything, have everyone else waiting behind the pillar in LOS

#

leap back and everything will come right on top of you guys behind that pillar and you can nuke

#

if you're doing a double pull but keeping the mobs spread, its 100% faster to just do 2 pulls, cuz what you're doing is turning a double pull into 3 individual pulls, time wise

#

@sick sentinel

sick sentinel
#

i shouldn't get bent out of shape about it, you guys have told me tons of stuff i done wrong, and i have to just get on tank notes it seems

cinder storm
#

Just play around the comps you have, you move too much, you could have told the mage to poly one vanguard and hunter trap the other and then double pull, once they group they can start dpsing. The dps were terrible too, they focused on the targets that were already dying instead of swapping, but you cant trust pugs to think ahead of the 3 first numbers on their bar, its kinda your responsibility as the tank to limit their mistakes,

sick sentinel
#

i'll give it a go in 24 hours or something

cinder storm
#

why? just go agane, best way to improve is to keep trying

sick sentinel
#

because, i went agane, and died to other stupid shit i normally wouldn't have

cinder storm
#

did you moved forward the second time?

brittle owl
#

have a break

#

have a kit kat

sick sentinel
#

so, i gotta take small break

brittle owl
#

then go agane

cinder storm
#

keep trying pack by pack, is the only way to get better imo, mechanically you can get better, but the more you try the better you will feel

#

Most ppl that pug deplete a bunch of keys before timing one key

sick sentinel
#

i don't feel terrible at all if it depletes my key unless i need it

rancid ember
#

Yeah just gotta move past that. You're never going to see the people you group with again most likely anyways. If he gets tilted that's on him just /ignore and move on. Your mistakes are more obvious being tank. Only way to learn is to scuff a bunch of keys & routes and deal with the mindless pubs sometimes.

high folio
#

yeah yogi on my way to 1450 io i borked a lot of keys figuring shit out

#

hey guys just a short question i saw a lot of prot warri's switching to necro is the banner buff so strong or can maybe someone explain?

amber herald
#

it isn't any stronger than the other covenants in reality

#

a lot of people swapped for the hype

bright peak
#

ah okay then i will stay as kyrian too lazy to farm renown ;D

rancid ember
#

Where did you see alot of wars switching to Necro?

#

If streamers they're probably just getting all their reknowns up to 40 on each covenant so they can swap in 9.1 if needed.

bright peak
#

okay didnt know that

#

okay so its just prepping

jagged pier
#

The top guilds are as they will be able to reliably and mean reliably get the buff om the correct people, plus the dps gain for them the like extra 300 raid dps it gives is worth it as they do content in a lot less gear than most ppl

#

And they need that extra

#

If u arent in a top guild honestly its unlikely u will realibly get that buff on the 3 people you want all the time

#

And even though extending the buff on yourself isnt a bad thing its still weaker than repirsal + another cov

soa is one of the eqasiest in tyrannical you always have a pride for first, can get one for second and last

robot even in tyrannical is a meatshield

its the 2nd boss and final boss that i'm really fearing

safe thistle

get a pride for second one

sick sentinel

a bit the first if im dumb

fierce field

2nd boss is a pushover in tyran with pride + lust

where are you tanking him Yogi?

safe thistle
#

lust first/second third boss no pride/lust just long but so not dangerous if you got a hunter to soak first wave of bubble or pally

sick sentinel

i try to do something like this for 2nd boss

fierce field
#

yah, shouldn't be too bad then with pride/lust

safe thistle

your 1 and 2 can be inverted you need to know the arrow the orb shoot start by where the boss were facing before teleporting so you can make it stack on the previous orb arrows.

yo anyone playing warrior after DH, and cant figure out why ur interrupt doesnt work unless ur right up the mobs ass

ya LS add 700 dmg reduction on Ignore pain

or close to that

i meant healing via indominable

safe thistle

that too

muted arch
#

or indomitable w.e

#

wait why does last stand add to ignore pain

safe thistle
#

ignroe pain is from a % of your HP

muted arch
#

i dont see that when popping it

#

like i dont see a change when popping last stand

safe thistle
#

tooltip error

#

just pop ls then avatar and use ignroe pain

#

youll see the corrected value on the buff

muted arch
#

ah kk

#

wait avatar

#

what does that have to do with it sry

#

oh for rage lol

safe thistle
#

jsut for the rage to pop ignroe pain

sick sentinel
#

it's like how a mob say it casts a shadow bolt that hits you for 50k, but on the tooltip it says 6k, cuz like the modifier from +15

jagged pier
#

dont u mean to pop revengj?

safe thistle
#

like that pepe

muted arch
#

does ignore pain cost less rage at max level

#

it costs 40 for me rn

jagged pier
#

it costs 40

muted arch
#

how u popping ignore pain after casting avatar then

#

doesnt it only give 20 rage

jagged pier
#

thats why u use revengj

strong forum
#

IP doesn't change when you pop LS

#

Ignore pain scales from attack power and vers

safe thistle
#

hmm so its avatar that make it bigger then ?

strong forum
#

Avatar doesn't make it bigger either

#

Avatar increases dmg done by 20%

muted arch
#

revenge uses rage it doesnt give it idk what ur saying lol

safe thistle
#

well i can tell it increased with both up

strong forum
#

Avatar used to make IP bigger in bfa cuz of the mastery gain

#

But right now, neither button does increase ignore pain

safe thistle
#

can you try in live and check your buff it still does

strong forum

Mastery grains from proc, like pelagos, that increases it

#

You don't have bom anymore

u can ignore shield slam for aoe pump eh?

no

SS is highest prio

hmm that doesnt make sense for pure damage

how come

it generates the thing u use to deal damage

fierce field

SS = Rrraaaaaaagee

strong forum
#

ykno

#

cant deal aoe dmg without rage

muted arch
#

if you're not throwing up any defensives i mean

strong forum
#

yes

#

you still need rage to deal damage

muted arch
#

and have ravager ect up

blazing condor
#

SS deals quite a bit of damage too

strong forum
#

during ravager ofc....

muted arch
#

i find i can just keep hitting revenge and staying at like 80 rage lol

strong forum
#

thats a whole differnet story

muted arch
#

yeah during dmg pump

strong forum
#

during LS + ravager OFC do you only revenge spam

#

you want to avoid overcapping rage

#

"during dmg pump" could mean alot of things

muted arch
#

i meant when u dont care for defensives, and have enough rage to spam revenge

strong forum
#

then you still dont want to forego using SS

#

cuz if youre not capping rage

#

youre better off using SS

muted arch
#

in aoe?

strong forum
#

cuz getting 15 rage and the CD going on SS and do 3x revenges and maybe a chance of a reset on SS, is better than use 2x revenge back to back, and only then using SS and be left with nothing

#

ykno?

#

revenge isnt going anywhere

#

if you dont cap rage

muted arch
#

ive just been feely crafting it so far, i guess as long as i never have an empty global im fine tho i suppose?

strong forum
#

generating rage is the highest prio

blazing condor
#

i wonder who at blizzard just said fuck it and made Sha of Fear HC take like 25 minutes

signal plover
#

It's more about not wasting SS reset procs

strong forum
#

wasting potential SS procs because you wanted to cast 1 or 2 more revenges

#

is loss of value / dps

muted arch
#

hmm idk if i follow, if youre never bottoming out on rage, then isnt it a waste of a global to shield slam if you know you dont need to

modern brook
#

no

strong forum
#

it is

#

a waste

muted arch
#

explain the no @modern brook

strong forum
#

just because you dont bottom out, doesnt mean you couldnt have generated more rage

modern brook
#

^

muted arch
#

okay and what am i to do with it lol

strong forum
#

use more revenges?

modern brook
#

feed am

#

ip sb etc

strong forum
#

getting more rage = more casts done

modern brook
#

more revenge

strong forum
#

youre never GCD capped to the point where more rage isnt beneficial

inland raft
#

Revenj

muted arch
#

well if im never bottoming on rage, that means theres literally no more casts done possible lol

modern brook
#

?

#

thats uhhh

#

not true

muted arch
#

explain

modern brook
#

You press shield lsam

#

you get 20 rage

#

you never press another button

#

you havent bottomed out

#

and there are a lot of missed casts

strong forum
#

do you have per chance a log

#

so we could get a visual

muted arch
#

sorry im saying lets say theres a situation when u know u can spam revenge without missing a global

strong forum
#

on the hypotheticals

#

how long are we talking here

muted arch
#

like during ravage like i said

strong forum
#

how many revenge casts

muted arch
#

idk 10 seconds whatever

strong forum
#

during ravager is a short window where you exclusively spam revenge if youre capping rage

#

as ive mentioned before

#

because you would be capping rage if you didnt

muted arch
#

i mean theoretically speaking, the highest aoe pump will be the most ravages/second correct?

modern brook
#

so if you're asking

muted arch
#

so spending as few globals as possible to build rage rather than spend will be optimal

fierce field
#

IP also feeds into AM and is off GCD

#

which brings avatar back faster

#

so you have a place to dump some of that rage.

strong forum
#

do i need to repeat myself

#

3 times over

#

youre prefacing the ravager situation

#

which ive answered multiple times now

#

in a situation where youre not capping rage

#

youre always advised to generate the most rage possible if you want to maximise dmg output throughout the entire pull

modern brook
#

You're looking at it froma very limited scope

strong forum
#

because you cant possible generate enough rage to only spam Revenges and TC without prioritizing shield slam

muted arch
#

of course lol

strong forum
#

with which button

muted arch
#

i guess as long as u dump before capping you're fine

strong forum
#

yes.

#

thats the entire thought process

copper cedar
#

You want to only avoid capping rage during ravager so that you leave the ravager window with as much rage as possible to work with, as you'll be wearing that rage buffer down quick enough afterwards.

strong forum
#

prio is always SS > TC > Revenge assuming you dont cap rage

#

if you cap rage, you press revenge until youre not in danger of capping rage anymore from your next cast

#

if youre taking serious dmg whilst doing so, you weave your occasional IP in, but highest priority is always generating rage

#

it all ties together

elfin surge
#

wait holdup .... wheres SB fit in here (sorry to ask)

muted arch
#

on CD if you need it

strong forum
#

whenever you take blockable dmg

#

its the highest prio over everything, but its off global so it doesnt matter

muted arch
#

some say it has no prio but the highest prio at the same time

strong forum
#

SB doesnt contribute to your offensive rotation to the extend discussed here

#

but in a situation where you wont need to block damage income, its still worth the dmg increase on SS on ST

#

if you can afford to do so

muted arch
#

hmmm

#

the extra 30% shield slam dmg is for sure worth the rage

#

?

#

in ST

strong forum
#

yes

muted arch
#

thats assuming u get at least 2 slams in that window im guessing?

strong forum
#

yes

#

but as there are no encounters where SB itself isnt worth the defensive part

muted arch
#

sure there is, when ur not main tanking

#

xD

strong forum
#

okay lets count how many of those situations are where youre not tanking for longer than 10 seconds

muted arch
#

as long as you wont be taunting off before CD resets i

#

umm plenty haha what

#

i count a total of 0

sunking sure i guess?

it does if u want that phat parse

strong forum
#

parse of a boss that doesnt count?

#

nice

muted arch
#

i mean what else is a tank supposed to do to have fun lol

strong forum
#

you cant parse on sunking outside of willingly playing the encounter wrong

muted arch
#

wait why wrong now lol

#

if you have 2 charges of SB up when u tank again

#

ur fine

strong forum
#

to get a parse on sunking you need to leave mobs alive

#

boss dmg is nothing for the parse there

#

its all about add pad

muted arch
#

haha idk i just have the mentality of wanting to squeeze every ounce of dps i can

#

especially in farm when tanking becomes mundane

strong forum
#

sure so do i

#

but not on bosses where its literally irrelevant

stark sage
#

you should be working to play the best on an individual level
but trying to play the best from a parse perspective means you have to actively do the encounter wrong, that's the difference

muted arch
#

yeah im not saying do the encounter wrong to pump ur number

#

thats just self deception lol

stark sage
#

tldr, use block in a way that you block 100% of blockable damage, if that check is met and you sit on extra charges then you can use them for the dps

muted arch
#

unless u over gear content, in which case pop that puppy on CD and take those naked hits like a chad

idk which spec is better

modern brook

Use the ambushers for victory rush procs on third boss if needed

Dont think so. I didnt run impending victory even. ravager is helpful on 3rd boss to get ads out. AM is probably the move as well

Going from vulp to orc or tauren is a downgrade
