finite bolt
#

yer not it simular to am

jagged pier
#

so u loose the SW cd and the avatar cd reduction

plush tendon
#

I ❀️ the necrolords, but I would caution any casual player wanting to play it (still can of course, we live in a free country!)

jagged pier
#

and u would never run it in m+ its too much of a lose

finite bolt
#

yer i kinda like viel and remove posion

#

alot of dammge out put thou

jagged pier
#

less than u think

#

for the warrior its still a dps lose and the only sims ive seem are with it with AM but on progress u would be running bolster as u loose the block

#

so its even bigger for the warrior than the 100ish dps ive seen

jagged pier
#

but buff 3 classes regardless of what they are is still okay

finite bolt
#

in survialbytie sence is seems good ish but sheild is errr low

jagged pier
#

how its is good in a survivability sense?

finite bolt
#

repreasal too good id guess to change

jagged pier
#

u cant use it for defesnive value

#

as youll have to use it around dps cds

I kinda feel that some of you are comparing legendaries are some are comparing covenants πŸ™‚

Any combo really

strong forum
#

Prediction from some people is we will see all tanks across the first 10 mythic sylvanas kills being used

#

With some people excluding paladin

timber jasper
#

i would say depending on the raid comp. if you have havoc, you dont bring vengeance. if you have ww, you dont bring brew

#

probably would go for pwar and bdk since AMZ is stronger than the dmg dk version

strong forum
#

Amz is dogshit

#

Even on bdk

timber jasper
#

guardian also nice tank but doesnt bring utility sadly

strong forum
#

That is not part of the equation

yeah dogshit but not as on frost/unholy

Outside of comfort picks, there is no reason to bring a dk anymore

finite bolt

DOWN with dks!

strong forum
#

Same as bear

#

Which is enough of a reason to bring it

Because tanks survivability doesn't play a role in raid with current tuning

do i have to craft legendary again?

strong forum
#

If you don't have reprisal on legs, and you care about getting a few more stats out of the increased ilvl it offers, yes

#

If not, I wouldn't bother

finite bolt
#

i got boots :C

Just keep rank 4 boots for now and craft directly rank 5 pants in a couple weeks

Hi πŸ™‚
Back to tanking next tier, so I'm trying to catch up

ebon geyser
#

Welcome back I member you

finite bolt
#

ok legit confused i have theses rank 4?>

junior igloo
#

Yes, 235 is rank4

ebon geyser
#

So reprisal on pants if I'm reading guide right

strong forum
#

Ideally yes

autumn pendant
#

Thank god

#

I crafted them there

finite bolt
#

buy pants then?

ebon geyser
#

Also in order to power to 40 renown just spam dungeons

finite bolt
#

rank 4?

strong forum
# autumn pendant Thank god

Big brains crafted on legs knowing that it's unlikely that increased ilvl pants are dropping again from the last 2 bosses

finite bolt
#

i want m plus legs with versa

junior igloo
#

Yes, pants have more stats and they are not a reserved slot (for domination sockets or anything like that)
Legendaries can be crafted at different item levels. 235 is rank 4 and it is currently the highest (ranks 1-4 require only Soul Ash)

In new patch, ranks 5 and 6 will become available (higher ilvl), they will also require new currencies.
So when you have enough of new currencies to craft rank 5, you should do it on pants ideally (it will cost some extra Soul Ash, but Soul Ash is not an important currency in 9.1 as it was now, you will gain a lot automatically)

autumn pendant
#

Ofc im big brain

brittle owl
ebon geyser
#

So if I buy the piece for rank 4 and make reprisal after running torghast will that rank 4 have a socket? Also the stats scrolls would be haste and vers or haste and mast?

timber jasper
#

new crafted or upgraded legendarys will have sockets when you craft in 9.1

#

of course only helmet, neck, bracers, ring and belt

#

and yes. haste vers

ebon geyser
#

So pants don't get socket

#

Gg bliz

#

Hopefully I can get reprisal asap

finite bolt
#

4500 big sadge soul ahs right now :C

#

cnt i just use the wall

#

i do do m plus sos i guesss

jagged pier
#

i mean reprisal is best for both

true

#

new PANTS tommorw :C

#

rank 5 you need rep?

#

gona be expensiv?

junior igloo
finite bolt
#

get rank 5?

#

pants?

ebon geyser
#

I think meiffert said rank 5 and 6 need new currency

#

The one from raid maybe

rugged basin
#

so normally I play the wall legendary but am thinking of swapping to repraisal. For extended periods of tanking, I will do my 3 shield blocks then use shield wall/last stand (so long as I am actively tanking). With repraisal however, how does my use of shield block change? Do I do something like block > intervene > block > block?

finite bolt
#

soul cinders

#

but idk if u need rep for crafting recipe

#

legs dont has socket?

jagged pier
#

no

finite bolt
#

BIG OOF

jagged pier
#

how?

#

the leggos getting a socket

junior igloo
#

No free socket πŸ˜›

finite bolt
#

oh ok

jagged pier
#

are just ones where u could get sockets on thoughs slots already

#

so u dont mis out getting one because u have a leggo in that slot

finite bolt
#

so you craft lego get no socket whein craft?

ebon geyser

Hopefully I get some cheap rank 4

Keep the CD rolling

#

So basically charge->sb->intervene

rugged basin
strong forum
#

No

jagged pier
#

no

strong forum
#

Most bosses stand still to do X

#

Or there are adds to charge on the side

#

And the general use of SB + intervene and your occasional charge can already cover most if not all tanking periods

jagged pier
#

u also dont need to charge like that most of the time because u wont need to charge before first charge 3 sds and an intervene

#

amount of shield block time runs out

strong forum
#

Really don't need to overthink it

#

Just make sure to atleast use intervene on CD and charge before you taunt off

rugged basin
#

ah kk

strong forum
#

You'll get the hang of it

jagged pier
#

thats the biggest argument ive heard about it not being good 'how to do charge when tanking the boss' when there are always so many times u can

strong forum
#

Huntsman is the best example

#

100% tanking uptime, and at first sounds hard to play reprisal

jagged pier

like loads of ppl wouldnt charge on sludge because the 'chain would break'

yes it is

hybrid ravine
#

So, let's talk. Reprisal in raids. How viable is it going to be compared to The Wall? Whilst theoretically "better" - I'm not seeing too many opportunities currently for us to zip around without putting the raid at risk. Useless when doing a tank swap if you're not taking damage etc

World of Warcraft Forums

We’ve made an update to Chains of Domination today. Previously on the PTR, only newly-created Shadowlands Legendaries were set to receive a gem socket. With today’s update, all items granted legendary power by the Runecarver in the Helm, Neck, Bracer, Belt, and Ring slots will receive a socket, whether you’re creating a brand new item or upgrad...

yes

#

u can charge that way

#

u can charge to adds

#

there seems to be a fair move away casts in the new raid

#

so u need to move away can charge back

#

u can always move out and charge in just before u taunt

ebon geyser

I need to get used to charge because my leap game is on point lol

jagged pier

u dont need to leap just walk

ebon geyser

Ohh I know I'm just using leap too much

I probably will go kyrian, I like the control I had over spear

But I like the cast interrupt from NF

So we dont need to make cloak with The Wall? We can just put that domination thing in shoulders when we upgrade it?

No

You can't put Dom sockets on legendaries

Also, theres a tendency to overestimate the value of vers; it provides straight DR equivalent to half of your vers value; so lets say you have 12% vers (hypothetical) you would be getting 6% DR. That wont save you

Only good play will

I usually run the wall in HoA just for the extra shield wall reduction

thin nexus

dark lark
#

Hi guys, just going over the fight mechanics for SoD and just at first glance AM/Wall will have a lot of value since there's a bunch of "100% increase damage" tank buster mechanics, whereas the only fight where you're probably going to constantly tanking thus using Reprisal is Kel'Thuzad's + his adds. This seemed to be the case in early undergeared prog for CN with all the bleed effects in there before Reprisal was reworked and by then we were already geared. Thoughts and/or corrections?

plush tendon
modern brook
#

end of 8.3 you could walkin into dungeons with a permenant Demo shout up

crystal iris
#

Does anyone know which reduces Shield wall more between The wall and anger management? by themselves i mean

plush tendon
sweet summit
#

theyre basically equal mattdz

modern brook
#

If you're debating a set up

sweet summit
#

but AM also gives more avatar

#

so πŸ“ˆ

modern brook
#

AM + Reprisal is always the answer tbh

crystal iris
#

so im better running reprisal and AM ?

plush tendon
sweet summit
#

ya

dark lark
#

@plush tendon I never did early prog where I'm doing mythic raid in sub heroic level gear but I will be this tier- will I need to SW on every tank buster?

crystal iris
#

I started running less reprisal in HoA because of the need to kite dogs, if i use my kiting abilities to charge back towards them then I dont have it to run away bravely

crystal iris
#

Sort of new to tanking - just started learning in 9.0.5 to help guild

#

Never tanked above 15 and the 15s ive done were very hit/miss

modern brook
jagged pier
#

u can use cds and externals for tank busters

thin nexus
jagged pier
#

but if u take the wall to cover a tank buster but u loose 20% blocked hits

#

thats an OOF

plush tendon
#

big OOF

modern brook
#

yah but even if your dps are absolute oafs you can still get away with it

Int shout/ shockwave to run gets you there tbh

if theres literally any slow in the party

that gets you there

i think in certain scenarios, if you know youre not confident/nervous, the wall is a better legendary

wish we had an aoe slow like fury

We recommend people play Reprisal and learn to use it; but yes, the Wall is fundamentally easier to use

Thunderclap and run

I like reprisal i just need to get better at it

just practice it, it takes some adjustment but you feel awesome once you get used to it

crystal iris
#

Ill kite and the dogs chase me but the caster stay still, i guess i just need to kite around to charge back at the casters

chilly brook
#

This isn't really a question of how good or comfortable you are at the game

#

You can literally thunderclap

jagged pier
# dark lark So demo shout, AM'ed SW, and externals is enough to cover every tank buster in e...

not demo again your goal in early prog is to mitigate as much damage as possible not just tank busters, u need to plan out everything from when u first use your cds and when u will need them again, and when externals are needed so u know whats going on when, and this is where the wall uses value, because in prog as u want to mitigate as much damage as u can if u are running the wall u have to take bolster to cover the melees (the majority of damage) which gives u the same cd of SW as rep and AM. wher erep gives u far more blocked hits, u need to stop worring just about tank busters most of them can be covered by very little tbh

chilly brook
#

And strafe to get out of range

thin nexus

okay i dont really care enough to argue about it

You're not kiting cause its fun you're kiting cause its the only way to reduce damage income to stay alive

nope

i mean ofc its better to have it up in active pulls but it guess you can say sth like 10-30% or 70-90%

cinder nova

There really isn't a hardline.

Because it's entirely up to how long the pull takes.

80% with reprisal πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

A 15 pull you could have 100% uptime on block but that same pull on a 21 will take too long to maintain 100% uptime.

In a run where I had 85% blocked hits I had 66% uptime on SB

Like Erga said it's more about blocked hits

Not uptime

Very hard to equate those

Can't just give a default answer

i mean Blocked hits is just "value from uptime" really

It's like asking how to properly use dowsing rods

sweet summit
#

How do i log ?
So, if you have been here for a while, you may have noticed that whenever somebody ask for advice we ask them for a log, and if you’re new you might have no idea what that means or how to get one so :

πŸ”Έ First, download Loggerhead (https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/loggerhead) or ERT (https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/exorsus-raid-tools)

Once you have one of these any time you enter a zone where you might want a log (ie dungeon/raid/torghast) these addons will automatically start logging (in the case of ERT you have to activate automated logging in the options).
Alternatively if you don’t want to install an addon for it, whenever you are going to do an activity you want to log type /combatlog in chat to start logging said activity.
Remember to activate advanced logging in the options (System -> Network -> Advanced Combat Logging)
All these options will store your logs in your wow file inside the retail folder and the log file.

πŸ”Έ Second, go here (https://www.warcraftlogs.com/client/download) download the client. Select the live section of the client, select the upload a log button and select the fight you’re interested in putting up as a log and boom you’re done.

πŸ”Έ Third, once you’ve done all this, your log is uploaded you can put it up here and we can look at it together to see if you’re doing something wrong.

If you wish look at your own log Jakey made a nice little video explaining what we look at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1tRp8lULT8

So you blew through a few defensives and he was gone..otherwise; you were.

nah i'm just talking about how it moves

hm..I did notice he'd move a bit. If you want to see that AI in full autism force; the ? torturer guy on sunking fight. Literally stand still..watch what he does.

#

..homeboy thinks he's floyd mayweather.

#

he tries to constantly fly sideways and juke you for..no reason.

#

I think the problem with tyrant velhari was the forced bits of small movement; and because she was an oversized player race model (those are the worst) you'd clip into it or she'd get just barely out of max melee and want to move to you...by shifting to your side.

#

Anything that's an upsized version of a smaller model; the hitbox scales up and it's such a douche.

Some stuff 'when' the reflect happens isn't super intuitive. On sire blood price the knock back after you're suppressed is still deflectable so you have to cast reflect RIGHT before you get lifted up to deflect it in time.

What's the main thought on reprisal or the wall for raiding this tier which one people upgrading to max first?

but slightly harder to play

The wall doesnt net you any dps gain because you run AM with reprisal anyway

i just find i need the rage most when im actively tanking the boss, and thats when i dont want to be spinning them around by accident, intercepting the other tank and eating his hits, or running around

Well i guess you get more rage but its still not enough

Even in ST

Just slightly harder to play
