It'll be s1 loot and an s2 key
You won't get a free 252 from doing a +14 or higher in the last day of s1
thats what im asking
then this week we should do atleast 10 mytics
if it bugs out and gives you a s2 vault just insta disenchant it
they can't take it back if you already destroyed it!
You've run 527 dungeons this season across all your characters this season. That's over 11 days 5h 44m worth of Mythic+!
guess I ran some dungeons 
only thing that's actually fun to me in this game
how do you see these things
raid is ok, rest is not interesting
r/cursedimages
Recap on raider.io
@sick sentinel https://raider.io/sl1-review
I did I see nothing tho
Community > first option
And then you get your thingy
My mans
if you dont see it normal way
You've run 165 dungeons this season across all your characters this season. That's over 3 days 23h 16m worth of Mythic+!
Tfw yogi played more keys than me
hhaahhahahahaa
so close
yeah, but at probably 25% efficiency of you
You've run 258 dungeons this season across all your characters this season. That's over 5 days 20h 26m worth of Mythic+!
I feel like im slacking
think for Valor farm and early gear farm
I think I ran more keys in the first month
then the rest of the season
Needing gear + lockdown is a helluva drug
did like 15 keys on NYE 

Rerolling back onto my tank, is the general concensus listed in #268491842637660160 looking to be the same in 91?
9.1*
Tyvm, all i needed to know before i start maxing out my renown to find out that Kyrian is now dogshit
Yeah, new Mikanikos is looking sick for M+
Good, cos i played lock this tier and the thought of playing NF again makes me sad
do we have to recraft the wall and reprice due to domination socket gear ?
so you would go reprice all the way trough mytic raid ?
Yes
i mean the new raid ofc.
It's better in pretty much every single way
The only time I could see wall being better is if a boss fight is almost entirely magic dmg and you can use SW every single minute
Outside of that reprisal is better at everything
ok . thx for info
trying to level and do dungeons as tank, shield blocks feels like it does nothing and ignore pain goes away instantly. And people tell me im bad im level 30
dont want to tank anymore 
leveling is nothing like endgame
prot really relies on good ilvl and being max lvl
to make any sense
i like warrior but I was hopeful to enjoy all specs but doesnt look like thats the case
Judging prot when it doesnt even have 75% of the stuff that actually makes it work

what covs are you guys for 9.1?
!stats
Sticking with Kyrian.
I kinda wanna keep my NF Fury as an off spec so im thinking I'll stay NF
what do you guys think give up 71 Haste stat to gain 10 ilvls on boots?
I'm30%haste un buffed currently
venthyr 4ever
yes
the answer to "should i gain ilvls" is almost always "yes"
second to that
i could also get Stone Legion trinket at 220ilvl to replace the viscera trinket
Trinkets/necks/rings are the only sometimes exceptions
for sure thats why im debating i could get lucky on PF boots today and use valor to get them to 220
then i would of wished i took the trinket lol
Patch is almost over, I'd just cash out and get the biggest fastest ilvl increases now
np!
i'll never get it the way im playing, but it would be nice if i could get KSM this week
dropped 15 spires to a 12 before we over time completed it, 750k fail damag then run NW 11, 333k fail damage, i'm just dumb
at least that NW was a +2
I play pretty much every tank class at a very high level except a blood dk, and I get more praises while playing my warrior than any other class
What do yall consider the most fun covenant across all specs? I'm considering switching from NF to venthyr or kyrian, but looking for what's more enjoyable, spearing mofos or condemn?
for me, i play kyrian because at the time it was best choice
if you are highly skilled it can make some mobs jokes, like melee or applies a debuff, or just to keep shit away from healer
it's a really good batman utility spell.
Kyrian because its fun watching people try to get away when theyrr tethered 
Quick question, probably already been answered above but what covenant is everyone looking at for raiding/m+ as prot?
there were like, 2-3 bosses during prog where we got our first kill with me as the last one standing, hammering Condemn. live for those moments
ok thank you everyone who confirmed reprisal for sludge god damn it feels nice
Does anyone know what key we need to do to get a 15 next week in 9.1?
i don't think there's official word yet but 19-20 prob
and timing it should be 1 higher so maybe 19 timed 20 untimed
My go to is nightfae
Is it possible to carry the „key-level“ from S1 to S2? 😳
I need to remind myself vasting VP on useless trinketd this week before they get reset
It is not possible there downgrade all key levels by around 3-4 as the k value increases happens every season
For Prot vault upgrades, how do you guys choose? Sim it?
Depends what your looking for suvival or dps?
I mean first check is it higher ilvl u take it
Kyrian >= NF > venthyr> necro
pulsating heart stoneheart or viscera of coalesced hatred you recon?
i already have scale
i have anima field emitter and scale, but got 226 viscera and thought I could use this one for survivability. I'm low lvl and new, so I don't mind losing dps for surv
Is there a site or resource similar to bloodmallet to see which trinket is generally better, or is there too many variables involved for a tank or have such a thing?
I dunno but for damage your general trinkets are dreadvessel, phial, hook (on ST), overhelm crystal and hymnal. And defeanive trinkets scale, SLH and al'ar
Emitter is a bit of both as well
Have any numbers been crunched on the trinkets from the new raid yet?
Forgive my ignorance, where was phial from again? I dpsed all last tier on a different toon so im not as familiar with all the tank trinkets
The plaguefall-dps phial?
I mean its a dps trinket for PF
Oh that one
Is sun king trinket still gonna be worth using in content where a cheat death is handy?
Oh, nvm, there's a new cheat trinket
New cheat trinket is super ass
If you need a cheat death its most definitely gonna be splinter
New cheat is a worse soul-stone
How much life do you res with?
I dunno, seems fine
6 min CD down from 8, I assume it doesn't refresh on death to make up the difference
Do you lose aggro?
Even if you did, we have challenging shout
I mean u should barely ever need a chest death trinket theres a pin on when u should use it
Tbh cheat death trinkets make me play worse
I use one when I'm pugging a healer
Shit that shouldn't kill me sometimes just does
I only tried it a few times on PTR so maybe its changed. But it would proc at very low hp, around 8k or something. It would kill you - meaning you lose all aggro - and then much like a soul stone you would press the button where ”release spirit” is to res yourself back. I came back with 8k hp again
Wow dat bad
And yes you can definitely use challenging shout. But then you would have to play challenging shout around the cheat trinket and not use it otherwise because there’s no real point ressing back without aggro
Taunt leap taunts not a bad option
Obviously if there's still like 10 mobs alive it's a problem
Ressing at the health you died with seems pretty bad, though
Not seen anything pinned so forgive me if this has already been discussed. but with the buffs to mikianos tree. could it be the new default for kyrians prots warriros.
Definitely good in M+
Not sure about raid, though
Last soulbind trait seems dead in ST
If its a consistant add fight for sure
for mythic + the haste, and the cd reduction . from mikanos will out perform peligos in a dps aspect. without loose too much DR? i guess i should just wait and see
I mean more haste is more rage whoch is more dr amd spear more often is a tone of rage
U loose some mastery and 3% magic DR not much tbh
Is the haste buff from damaging new enemies worth more than a 2nd potency?
🤷♂️
I would guess so but I don't know how much damage the new potency does
4 endurance conduits does seem like overkill, though
The new potency is aweful
Okay folks! Moving over to prot for 9.1. Seeing WoWhead refer to The Wall as BiS.
What’s the feeling? Is that correct? Reprise has fallen off?
Reprisal is what you’ll want to play generally
Its our best leggo
Wall is fine too. But its worth playing with repirsal
Once you learn it properly
(Which isnt that hard)
Reprisal is better in all situations if played correctly
NF or Kyrian for a casual M+ tank? (switching to Prot for 9.1)
I mean just reading the wowhead guide it actually states u want to craft reprisal first @hybrid ravine
Dont matter
I’m actually referring to the recent 9.1 shard of domination guide
The recraft article confused a lot of ppl in my guild
They're taking it as this is the bis we need
Patch 9.1 is adding the Shards of Domination system, which involves certain slots of gear having Domination sockets. Due to this, you may want to recraft your Legendary if you've crafted a Legendary on one of these slots. We've asked our Class Writers to give their advice on which slot you should recraft your Legendaries on to prepare for Patch ...
That’s actually how I read it too 😄
Exactly this. Ppl are reading sideways or just want straight answers instead of going for the guide.
The lack of reprisal there is whats causing some confusion I guess
Who knows how mikanikos is gonna go live, and Bron is a mess rn, but kyrian is looking better than NF
What? All it states is u need to move the wall to cloak
We arent changing reprisal slot
So why would it be in the recraft list?????
🤔

Also why are u reading the recraft list instead of i dunno the class guide for a leggo list
Because it popped up in the news channel
BTW, when people mention 80-90% uptime on shield block, it's without the middle talent on last row, right? Because I have 100% uptime every dungeon with it
Im just explaining the thought process, got my reprisal more than ready, but the recraft article did confuse some peeps :(
Im more sad about recrafting all bdk stuff but thats off topic
Hey all, Im new to prot and wondered if anyone has any tips for me or anything, Currently saving my soul ash for the reprisal leggo when i can get it as I cant yet. Or do u think itts worth me buying a different one? Thanks!
Oh lmao, is it that good yes?
I havent unlocked twisting corridors yet 😦
what's the lego? reprisal
but I have the wall do I recraft? sure if you want it but you can use reprisal in raids
when was reprisal good in raids? since 9.0.5 when it was reworked
what's the covenant to go? Anything you want
Oh but isn't X best? sure sure if you can use it 100%, they all have pros and cons. Kyrian >= NF > rest but play what you want
My guild wants me to go necro, what do? Are you in a HoF guild? top 100 - 200? tell them to smoke less and you might consider, play what you want
P much
Oh ok thanks.
joined this discord 3 or 4 days ago, all I had to do was wait, check pins, check faq and keep getting reminded by everyone joining in to ask the same questions. quite funny for me, quite sad for the ones that keep repeating the same stuff 😛
Seems fun to play aswell tbh
This is a SF day to day we arent going insane a swear
dashing around the place
If ive unlocked twisting corridors on another char
will it be unlocked on my others?
Yes
Pog
Has to be layer 3 to get a leggo
And to reroll the floor u need to do the fisrt 3 floor before leaving
what? since when? I just went in and out until I had what I wanted 😐
Someone said it the other day, i havent been in TC since week one when i finished it
🤷
Kir4g with the best tldr yet
^
ugh was so long time since we got into a new season that i've forgotten how it works. i guess important thing this week is to do at least a +18 in order to get a +15 key s2?
and after next reset there will be a loot ilvl cap so theres no need to do more than +7's besides (at least) one +15 or +14?
ah thanks
ahh... true so we cappet on +7 keys for two weeks right? (for max ilvl)
From ilvl dropped from the key
U still want to do 14/15 for the vault reward after week 1 if i remeber correctly
@jagged pier im currently starting a new warrior on horde 🙂 so im 165ilvl... i dont think im gona do 14/15s soon :p any tipps for a good start in 9.1?
all i do is catching up renown .... renown haunts me in my dreams now :pepesad:
hmmm Necro leggo vs Reprisal for 9.1 mythic+?
Reprisal 100%
Maybe for lower keys? To do them faster? Just trying to figure out a scenario for which necro leggo will be worth crafting
@jagged pier yeah but im not :p
If your doing that u go for seismic
With proper party comp the overall party damage should be higher with necro than with seismic right? Or am I delusional
Then just play the game not much u can do apart from that to grt a good start
Over a while dungeon no way
Probably around the same
But necro leggo is only like 700 dps increase now instead of like 500
Its not that big
buff boi dreams shattered
I dont think that dream ever exsisted its always been 'not that good' and to much of a hassle to pull off correctly 100% of the time
And as u only extend the buff on yourself its just kinda eh
wait could you or someone develop this? on first week of S2 if we do a 15+ do we get 7+ worth of loot both at dungeon and vault?
First week loot will be capped for the end of dungeon chest
So people can't grind heroic ilvl gear endlessly
Vault will be regularly handled
Did Blizz say for how long?
ah
Because otherwise u can out gear hc before its out
I mean you gotta do what you can for the race for the World First clear am I right?
Season starts with Normal + heroic raid open and capped m+ rewards
Then 1 week later mythic raid opens and m+ is uncapped
There will be a bluepost coming up soon
Droptimizer is retarded. Why can't a sim with DPS trinkets?
Need to enable cross spec loot? Idk
flask of power went from about 300g to 550g, makes me not as much want to run keys lol
Yea consumables are gonna rise in prices now
Cuz the new raid is opening soon tm so people are starting to hoard
You also dont need consumes for keys until u hit the higher lvls tbh
yup, if i can't afford consooms easily from WQ, eh i dunno man
not going to be a very fun time
Anyway onto the fun stuff its a new tier so i need a new race to play what should it be?
you don't have to, but i think its expected that at the very minimum you eat the feast or get a food buff for a 15 key
unwritten rule
Jakey you a panda now right?
Yer
Go rocket jump n shit
Unironically vulp is top of the list
That 1 race i will never play
why do i have to reroll to furry fox thing star fox
U dont?
well, its best race right? lol
I mean for horde it hardly matters tbh
””””””””best”””””””
im aware its literal a 0.5% increase dps/whatever, i just always stuck with the cow man (very very early on it was dwarf/human, remove stun and triple hard to find removals {b/p/d} are fucking phenomenal)
circle stomp i don't have to turn around for, like with bolt or shockwave, which can miss due to poor positioning
Tauren cant run through door though 🤔
We get stunned in dungeons now a days?
tired of tauren
i don't want to resist the stuns i want to be able to remove it at a critical time
Yer thats the problem im.bored if orc fmale, taruen and blef fmale, and im getting bored of panda, need a new race
cuz you literal cant do shit all when stunned except provide passive buffs, may as well be dead
female orc is bis
When do we get stunned?
(for the looks)
Like i cant think of a single time
not often, but the rare times it does happen and you cant do your shit and taunt
got stunned for 8 seconds
Question, if I wanted a pumping ST leggo, what get? Signet of anchient memes?
No on ST BV is better
:O
Parses are down to much more than your leggo
like, for instance, on jes howlis, when i was human in tol dagor at start of BFA you could just every man the stun, and start dpsing him right away
We learnin
I have multiple stacks in my bank for S2 😄
that everyman is REDICULOUS handy
There so much to them, your group, kill time, your own play, buffs etc etc
I think if I had vessel I could be higher, currently hitting 70% on Sludge
Vessel is not going to get you that high
anyway, last week of this shit I think, cant wait for next tier.
i'm having next to no issues with sanguine too
Your kill time could be off so u dont execute into the damage increase
there was like, 1 dude in 2 dungeons that got fully healed,
As i said so many factors to loggig its rediculous
true
I did potato and not excecute for like 10 seconds
Like I said, we learnin. Just a simple BDK swapping specs
i have a BloodSclae 220 a Phial of Putrefaction 226
out of my fault i got Bladedancer's Armor and Pulsating Stoneheart on 226.
am i right, that these are useless for me?
They are useless yes
hey i have one question,i really cant decide on my secondary stats, i have 27 percent versa and 20 percent haste dont know should it increase my haste a little bit or not?like 27 percent is't a little too much?
k, had the right feeling, thanks
Whatever your highest ilvl is u equip it stats means very very little if u want more of something its haste @odd nimbus
my knowledge is; Take the higher item level. The STR increase is more worth than the secondary stats
my 223 Prot hase a shitload of haste and crit, and it works good, since even crit is benifical with increased parry
how much versa is enough if you can increase your haste in price of versa?like for gems enchants
0%
Stats dont matter
Nerf did 25s at 9% vers
U do not need it
U dont scarfice ilvl for stats
you see im not sacrificing item level i just have this option to get more haste instead of versa and im debating if i should do that
U care about stats when you have 2 pieces of armour thats are the same ilvl and then u go for the one with more haste
even on slots without main stats? Like Neck and rings?
There's a reason why we say
Ilvl > haste > vers
U go for haste on rings over vers
My pointnof saying 0% was that u dont actually need it to do anything ppl seem to think j need x amount of vers to tank x content when u dont
And acceptable lvl of vers is 0
Whatever the amount of stats you have at your highest ilvl, is enough.
General rule of thumb for enchants and gems is haste
^^
what you thing about this combo for mythic plus?[Blood-Spattered Scale][Gluttonous Spike]
can get 226 instead of [Blood-Spattered Scale] but i think this trinket is really good
[Overwhelming Power Crystal][Inscrutable Quantum Device][Stone Legion Heraldry][Anima Field Emitter]
have these
which one instead of spike in your opinion?
both of them are 220
Then you can pick whichever of the 2 you prefer
thanks mate
Do we usually get a cache heroic week that we need to grind 10 keys this coming week?
If you fuck up sanguine any key can be hard
You do get a vault, but it'll contain s1 loot and and s2 key
As soon as heroic week starts
So you only need to do 1 key the last reset before heroic week
Not 10
So still 226 cap, just a season 2 key
Yes
Gotcha and heroic week you want to do 10 and try all 15s for the dumb split ksm
10x15 if you wanna maximise your chances on getting a good 252
The KSM thingy is up to you
It's not really relevant for a while since valor is capped anyway
Unless you get a max scale/phial/shield literally on mythic week
10x14s no?
who cares about 14 or 15 man
Im just saying im just saying

How are you finding the swap? Been playing BDK, thinking of a swap to warrior for 9.1 myself. Don't wanna kite as much as my vdh does, and don't like Druid dps spec playstyles 😂
Im doing the same thing; was a BDK in raid for the majority of CN. But swapped to Prot War for M+. It's just more fun as of right now, you feel tankier, have more damage, and overall a more enjoyable experience
Sinful surge could actually be a nice little niche legendary if it only affected Bolster as well, sadness
What soulbind would you use between kleia or forgelite for mythic plus tanking. I'm using pelagos for my pvp arms which is my primary play style but conduits don't change per spec only soul binds do.
Mikan is gonna be quite the dmg boost
Pelagos will be a slightly more defensive pick because of the mastery gain
Pelagos is already taken up by my arms pvp and don't want to change out conduits everytime I want to tank. So mikan is the move than?
can't do any path-swapping shenanigans?
do you just use maximal potency conduits for arms pvp?
For the most part.
Pretty sure in pvp you'd wanna run mikanikos aswell
Cuz you're gonna be running kyrian leggo + mikanikos
Kleia will only be played on necrotic weeks
did the same swap, poor bdk benched.
seeing my hp bar stand still feels good
seeing a healer die feels like the doomsday is coming tho
dude im struggling way too much this week, can some1 check these logs and help me out with it
id appreciate that 🙂
i didnt kite anything
i dont even know what im supposed to kite in PF
If you're not kiting and not casting
That's your problem
Having not looked at the logs at all
Probably kiting things out of/away from Sanguini?
i mean ofc
But also if your ability usage is low, chances are your defensive uptime is also low.
your casts are uber fucking low then
that means u arent doing any damage
and you arent generating any rage to use for anything at all
The point isnt "oh you're not kiting what you're supposed to" its "you're not casting any spells when you're actively tanking"
mhh i see, so i had to calm a little bit and instead of panick or sum sht i had to focus on my casts
I mean, if you’re actively tanking and not kiting, panicking isn’t gonna help anything.
your casts vs mine
Gotta land those shields slams.
50 CPM is low, and you're chillering at 40
(total)
u want around 60 CPM
mhh so as long as i have SB up i should be fine right
cuz i felt like dying always
or do i need to reflect something in special
Ignore Pain is important. SR is important.
If he’s getting McFucked, it’s better than nothing?
I dont want to beat a dead horse, but you're feeling like you're always dying because you're not casting your spells enough to supplement your defensive rotation
If your getting mcfucked your fucking up elsewhwre or your group is fucking up and not kicking etc
Like honestly just press 20 more buttons a minute and if you're still feeling squishy theres other things to look at
yeah i just felt like playing sht
Ip is a anti rage cap and for large tank buster smoothing only
i didnt know where tho
Yeah, so it’s better than nothing in that regard.
Yeah, I get that. It’s not the issue for sure.
your bolster?
I didn’t wanna make it seem like it was the issue, I’m sorry.
is it bad?
With Bolster it should be 100% blocked hits
w/ reprisal alone you can hit like 80% blocked hits
Ya though i woulsnt run bolstwr anyways but thats bad
If font want to run am just run hr with reprisal
But am is bae outside super high keys
You're not charging and intervening enough and not pressing buttons enough
Like legit
Just press 50% more buttons
You're missing a ton of dmg and rage
Because of this reason
Yes
There was a nice image I saw a few days ago
☝️
Pogging so hard
Warrior especially is a big feedback loop
so just like playing the class is really important and you cant really afford to hold things
ITs why you just hammer shield slam every time it lights up
While thwre is somw truth to lining stuff up, it takws so much micromanaging to determine when irs worth to hold and when its not for extremely small gains that its better to get stuff on cd 99%
TBH you should be alligning pulls to CDs not the otherway around
ive been trying to use LS on cd
to use that juicy SB
I wouldn't Play Bolster with reprisal
Like you should be entering the dungeon knowing where your combusts /avatars/wild spirits etc are being used
Ever
Ya as i said id run am but id dont want am just run hr
run AM, pop avatars every pull kek
why tho
honestly why firemage is so good
No reason not to run am though outside high keys
isnt that SB really good?
turns out having a fatty combust every minute lines up to roughly every pull
Reprisal gives you super good sb uptime already
Recklessness is every minute too, but somehow fury isnt picked. But yea, big dmg cd each minute is too good to pass on that
You already get over 80% block uptime from reprisal alone
what COVENANT you guys go for if you are "main dps but also tank when necessary"?
turns out being uncapped is also a big deal
Always reprisal
Oh covenant
Oh cov? I run NF
Whatever your DPS spec needs
Nf
prot doesnt care
But yeah, whatever your dps cov is
Am is more dam and more shield walls, hr is more ragw so more damage but not as much as am and super high sb uptime, bolster kinda doesnt have a spot even if turtling
Is good enough for prot
and if you go Venthyr do you actualy use Condemn when available?
yes
Only on 3 or less targets
^
cool
sorry to interrupt you guys but a quickshot question here: reprise leggo still goes on legs?
Execute go brr
legs yeah
Yes sepir
ty
so it is good as a defensive too
condemn? no
its just better rage usage than ip
which isnt saying much
It's not a good defensive, but it's a waste to press IP compared to condemn
Sorry again y’all, what’s stats on reprisal leggo?
haste verse
Haste vers
cheers
Crit mastery 
so it is like "instead shielding me a little, let me do some damage"
I have enchanted and socketed mastery
Mastery is low key insane
I'm omega cool
I stack it myself tbh
Yes
But i atill run haste vers on leggo
condemn says "let me dump 40 rage into an execute that also gives me DR and CDR" instead of "let me dump 40 rage into CDR"
If survival is accomplished, go for max dmg
That's the general rule of tanking
Or well, should be
Did i live? If yes do more dam

Did i die? If yes could i have done something better? If yes (which is likely the answer) fix and do more damage
What we need is an ability called
Give pain
40 rage off gcd does damage to the target
Random Question does anyone know how much % the lieutenants count for in 9.1? Are they all valued the same or diff like Awakened was in bfa?
do they give %?
Awakened mobs did, so I imagine they will
Last i heard they gave no count
No count
But that was some weeks ago
i thought it was no count too but im not really following it that closely
Confirmed @solemn pasture ?
As of last build it was still no count
kk ty
they'll probably give % by the end of the season tbh
ppl always complain about killing extra stuff
yah
I assume it all depends on if high pushers skip
At least now we arent on that did the pug asspull and fuck up the entire run?
routing gunna be REAL weird
Without that "fuck this guy spawns at the wrong time and it's a wipe"
looking forward to skipping the entire first part of mists
Routing it really gonna be skip slow guy if pushonf high keys and ter then that get % while getting buffs as early as possible
So much nicer then all the shenanigans has to deal with before
I liked prideful ngl

Wtb pandaria shit
Wow is really missing challening solo content
i would rather have CMs back tbh
cause the worst part of wow is pugging
Cm was good in pandaland
they were good in WoD
mage tower was a bit boring after u had done the scenario and knew what to do
like i did every class so i knew what was gunna happen in each one
😴
We need 10 man mythic so everyone can get a mythic guild going. I cant imagine how people stick around if all they do is heroic pug life
"I redid the content 28 times" is not as good an evidence towards being boring as you think tbh
10 man raiding doesnt work unless its flex
cata 10man hc showed that
u needed the same amount of intuprts and cds etc as the 25 mans did
arent new raids flex now anyways just with the floor scaled to 20
mythic is scale to 20 but thats my point they scale it around u having that many
Im pretty sure iteorkd. Just keep 10 man harder than 20 as it was
and because its mythic they can say like u need 2 disc priests etc like with blast furnace
Hey is the cheat sheet for covs still relevant
pog
I had most fun playing venthyr i think
👍
But I'm not going to play that, it's for sure a soft int
👎
I know it's way too late to care, but I'm kinda sad the new Venthyr legendary affects Last Stand instead of Shield Wall, though with Bolster it's pretty nice.
it doesnt affect bolster
oh, then even more boooooooo
Its a troll laugh in legendary form for prot
doesnt do the conduit ither
any reason in particular some players are taking ITF and heavy repurcussions in high keys atm? Just more SB uptime?
p much
and here I was hoping there'd be some sort of bone thrown to one of the weaker prot covenants haha
I havent seen ITF tbh
but i think HR is more uptime/less rage dedicated to sbs or something idr
Anyone else thinking Kleia might be pretty good now? (thinking about M+ not raiding)
i mean
I imagine haste from ITF makes HR slightly more efficient
just cause you get more SS resets
pretty spicy
honestly seems low value to me
But ihavent really been tanking anything spooky lately so
grain of salt
Yeah true, I just thought it was interesting. Chinese players are always trying new things though haha
the ups of the HR build
100% uptime on SB
but
u loose damage
u loose SW CDR
and u only get like 10-20% more blocked hits over a dungeon
I personally like the haste from itf as well
Ravager isnt necessary imo
But thats just my playstyle
it feels good to play because it means you don't have to think
I'll have to give it a go, I like not thinking
Also that
Just spam shield slam
And you will never have to worry about shield block
In high dungeons i like not having to focus much on my buttons
if you're not pushing high keys it's definitely overkill on the survivability though
Just try shit out and see how it feels. #1 rio prot warr plays it all dungeons but id recommend playing rav/am on magic heavy dungeons
Cus the SW do be nice doe
But yes. Its just a thing he did for 25s
Yeah cool thanks alot 🙂
You're in the wrong channel, all the copium is supplied in the arms channel
i still play wall + AM cause nothing i do matters and Shield wall gives me spinny shields.
Nothing any of us do matters in this shithole of a life
but no, 187 ezpz

I ran a 131 shield well into overall ilvl of 210
but u could do more DAMAGJ

Dameej good.
all u need for that is SB

I feel I have to qualify for any lurkers that i am memeing, and while the Wall is perfectly serviceable as a leggo you should always be running Reprisal unless theres a very good reason not to be
I just ended up dumping all my dust into arms pvp leggos to mess around with



i still have like 3 bases in my inventory
maybe its a good time to sell the base items again
pogging
Yeah that's crazy lol 300k fucking lul
he bad slots are now the good slots smh
and vice versa
i honestly aint crafting shit until dom sockets become relevent to me
hopefully thats later than my ignorance is telling me it is
Ve'nari 9.0 sockets on Lego gear will carry over to R5 and R6 I'm sure right?
Idk man I’m baby WOYER
Right yeah, I’m definitely rebuilding once I get domination stuff.
Ah yes.

what realmpool is it
cuz its not a server of its own, so it cant be one of the big ones
ah found it
US server
Hello again people! Got a questions(i searched a bit but cant find a clear answer). Witch weapon enhancement is better for tanking? M+/Raid: Weightstones / Shadowcore Oil/ Embalmers Oil? THank you
just slap on shadowcore and forget about it
aswell as celestial guidance
the difference in enchants and oil is sub 1%
Lightness force gives me tdev flashbacks so I run thay
celestial makes you tankier, people like that
thank you for the answers:D
a
kek i just noticed in my bags that i have a leggo power lying around in there for months and months
is reprisal still better than wall if you don't play around it and don't use charge/intervene any more than default? i.e. you put on reprisal and forget about it?
pretty sure you can answer that yourself
"if i dont do anything that is required for the legendary to work, is it better than a legendary that works passively?"
thats like asking "is AM still worth it if i only press SW every 4 minutes// avatar every 90 anyways"
well i asked because normal prot gameplay involves occasional charging and intervening anyway so perhaps if the benefit was big enough it would be worth it regardless but guess not. thanks
the minimum you can do is use intervene on CD
i recommend playing reprisal regardless, its very powerful if you can utilise it properly
but wall is obv usable, but just suboptimal albeit easier to play
What was the undocumented Bron change for Mikanikos?
it now tracks dmg events from abilities
rather than just "lol maybe i count maybe i dont"
Doesn't he already do more than Korayn just slightly? 🤔
Just like half the raid team
bron did FUCKALL because it took so long to spawn him
now it only takes like 30seconds
so he has like 50% uptime
but i cant tell you how much dmg or healing he actually does cuz ther are like 3 people in the world who actually used him
actually ima test on live
brb
When are we going to be able to do m plus for the next seasonal affix?
in 2 weeks
@cinder nova
took me over 2min to spawn him
and he did just above 12k dmg
🙂
only for tmog runs
bron did ~60dps there
now given that he will have 50% uptime
roughly
he will actually do decent dps
like a medicore trinket ~
rn he had what
2.5min to spawn
then up for 30ish sec
so less than 20% uptime
he will do like 200 dps?
pretty aight if you ask me
and he heals too
I misread your numbers
What happens with Valor that we currently have when S2 starts?
It continues to be useless
Do we keep it? or is it converted to gold?
Converted to silver most likely
Oh, that's a good shout. I've gotten used to soloing bosses on my dh and BDK when the rest of the party die. Not a thing for warrior. Hmmmmm.
@modern brook but spinny shield look cool
I'm saying bro
how exactly do domination sockets work?
Hmm tough question here. What do you guys think about the NF vs Kyrian deal. I can't make up my mind. I am currently playing NF, I love ancient shock with the 12 seconds of ''nothing really happens to you''. Here's what I'm thinking. Kyrian feels like it will be alot more dps with mekanikos with the (45 seconds? ish cd unless it's even lower). BUT. I always play fury warrior. Feels like NF is ahead and adds value to having a fury warrior in your group. (I play fury warrior like 30% of the time) What is making you pick kyrian over night fae? ( mostly pug with my healer friend so ''having'' a kyrian isn't really the issue. Although, I've had runs where I couldn't find kyrians to fill the spot.
Hey, is there any fight where having two prot warris would be a a noticeable disadvantage for a top 400 guild? I would like to reroll to warri for next tier (for m+ reasons) but we already have another one
Can't think of a scenario that would make it terrible, it would have to be an 80%+ magic dmg profile boss
tanks not surviving is never an issue outside of a player skill issue
Do we stick to Pelegos or are the other soulbinds stronger as Kyrian
Exactly like August says, More tanky, More fun. Sadly I feel blizzard do not know what they want to do with DK and it shows. Warrior is fun, will probably play it for the tier and see how we go :)
blizz is haunted by tanks actually performing well
ever since m+ they dont know what they want to do with tanks
its the thought of breaking the tank healer dps trinity
no, its the "tank X was strong so we fucking destroy it"
and dont want tanks to actually have fun at the game
Was surprised to see the 9.1 warrior change write-up said that prot war was struggling to compete with the middle of the pack (no clarification given on m+ or raid, so assuming both) with no reason to believe that would change. From all I've seen and heard, warrior is performing really nicely in the damage department in M+?
Half of BDK damage is melee whiteswings :)
BDK, VDH and Pwar ST dmg is abysmal
monk is aight
guardian has a high skill ceiling and dmg ceiling, and pally is just nuts
Trying to compete with my PPally is impossible
yes
PSA: If youre doing more damage than your Prot Paladin cotank, he fucking SUCKS.
😂
thank you for listening
Lmao. Sounds about right tho
its literal facts
there should NOT be a single scenario where you can beat a paladin in raid dps
How are you all feeling in M+ though? I'm still levelling my pwar, so not there yet, just had good impressions from what I'd seen/heard about where they were. Don't like the DPS specs of druids for when off-speccing, don't like the kiting of DH, don't like the yo-yo squish-splat of BDK, so warrior seemed like a good compromise of less kiting and what I was led to believe was good damage!
Last I checked prot war damage is still kinda middle of the road for m+ but the gap is smaller
good dmg comes from playing well, the gap in m+ dmg is basically non existant on high keys
every good tank does 4-5k overall dps in keys
You still find people who tank that think doing more damage=less defensiveness
alot of them
Its something i routinely educate people on
Is that not kind of the case with pwar, since you're either doing revenge damage or IP?
are led to believe that turtling is the way to play, cuz they dont know any better or are roleplaying
Or oh, you mean the mentality of not trying to do damage to kill the pack quicker?
it's really rare that it's smart to drop revenges for extra IP
^
very rarely do you prioritise pumping rage into IP, only dumb/bad people do that
you gotta find a healthy balance
Doesn't scale at all well at high level?
If you're just using IP to avoid overcapping, you're probably doing IP enough
Surprised the absorb amount doesn't scale with stats though.
scales with attack power and versatility if thats what you mean
Ah
not to relevant amounts
might i add
you wont suddenly get alot more bang for your buck by hard stacking vers
[(0 + Attack power * 3.5) * (1 + Versatility)]
Will stop using it so much as I level then, so I don't get too into the habit. Been useful in levelling dungeons, where you struggle with the stats and rage more, and healers don't expect you to actually take damage.
dont use IP whilst leveling
literally waste of a button
costs way too much rage
for how little you generate
the class only starts playing well once you have good ilvl at max level
and once you have reprisal
So the age ol' warrior scaling thing? (Haven't played warrior properly since vanilla-wotlk)
its not scaling
scaling isnt a thing anymore like it was back then
its moreso, have a hard time to get going
now everyone scales with tuning patches
huh
i dont think K values will apply already
oh yeah it'll be S1 postseason in M+
i was just meaning like all classes/specs throughput on avg
literally all of the things
and thats kinda it
i think it's supposed to be lower st better spread cleave
theyre nerfing malefic rupture
Affli and fire will be fine
Definitely not
buffing corruptio and shadowbolt, reworking shadows embrace to only work on 1 target and buffing seed of corruption
Fire will still be fine
Frost probably edges it out but fire is still very good
Waat do you mean
the only thing im expecting is:
with mythic week, shadow priests will be nerfed
thats about it
and maybe an honorary 3% buff to arms
cuz they love those shitty buffs
hpal dmg nerfed by irrelevant amounts
disc is p gutted hpal is still prob slightly OP lol
disc will still be really good
and they will go kyrian, and have boon of archon on a 1min CD instead of 3min CD, thus they will be really good
plus there will be a lot of renown 1 gamers
first week
just thinking about our attempt at a sire rekill next week mostly 😮
is there a prot warrior dps guide? struggling to get past the 3.5k overall dps mark in Mythics
What key lvl u talking about?
15s
