ill fite u
please don't
no one likes my sleazy bdsm goblin look 
you look like an armed pimp
that's the look I was going for really
well you nailed it
but a very low-end dirty pimp
you need a fedora
not a fancy schmancy fur coat and cane kinda pimp
heh, use the nathria armor for fur pants
I got these shoulders from torghast and really liked them
so wanted to build a set around those specifically
wait it got rid of one of mine too wtf
something to do with the ability to tmog different shoulders i think
gone from the armoury
did blizzard fruit bowl it?
Ye thats a bug currently
Blizzard needs to make shields that dont look like shit
the only shield that's worth using is the hidden one from legion
anything other than that
is absolute garbage
might need to go back and get the weapon appearances for warrior, are they all still available apart from mage tower?
my warrior was my character boost at the end of legion
no
u get the armour sets now
the weps u cant get
well he did say apart from mage tower
This is only shield i like
we already got that panth
ye but more
i like kite shields too much
Only fucking sh ield that doesnt clip
i dunno i likes the SS talent idea but it doesnt fix anything
and the scale warder is just too good
the effects on it, the design
feels like a proper dragon scale shield
how much would u go because we are already at like 50% DR in max gear
sorry I meant all the appearances apart from mage tower
are still available
from armor?
?
pre buffs
i think so?
mug best weapon
in the gear i ahve now im at like 50% DR
thats too much ๐ฆ
im at like max gear
Pwar has like 3.8k armor
Already
More armor isn't gonna fix anything
Pally has 5k with sotr up + consec up ontop of that
At all times
Give warriors a shield spike passive
We have SB up for 80-90% of the time if played correctly due to reprisal
Shield spike isn't gonna solve St dmg issues
iron fortress 
Our aoe dmg is fine and iron fortress did laughably bad dmg
Make shield slam do more damage

Iron maiden would've been so nice...
yea...
ye


Shows us the lack of Force. ๐ฆ
What would make prot warrior more popular?
magic dam reduction
No.
no
more dam?
โ๏ธ
And that's not even a joke. ๐
โ๏ธ
he cant play the spec
or that
queue nomes gif
Pwar needs to be overpowered to be popular
Pally is strong, yet its not popular
Bdk isn't as strong
But it's popular
pally is toppin the keys on raider tho
That's irrelevant
D:
That's Andy
I look at the representation,
Not just what's #1

ye idk at this rate
You're nice to me
Jakey literally victimizes me
to make prot used more, it either has to do astronomical dam
or has to take no damage

to satisfy those who have 2 braincells
I've tried and played all the tanks at like a 50% mythic raid level
yes
i dont but i could start 
Warrior feels good
the pummel sound effect
playing with in game sound 
Erga is the kind man. Yuzu is the bird. Jakey is the feline menace
I play muted and listen to Chinese punk music
Chinese punk music?

I don't listen to alot of weeb stuff
It's uh, idk what the fuck to call it.
oh lord, looking up that song name sounds terrible
"Eyo, you heard of 22419? shit slaps!"
The mastering on it is so ass, but I think thats the aesthetic, reminds me of 100 gecs
I mean
We all know C418
c418 is bae
Fuck what's the artist that has that one song that's the number for absolute zero
his albums outside of MC need more recognition
Depends on which scale
I can't remember
0 kelvin or -273C or smth like that
When is it coming back? 9.2?
og brawlers guild was so much fun
brawlers guild?

but its not bad
weeby, but men
Rock and roll mcdonalds
There's some one direction eurobeat remixes that are lit
i dunno, call me crazy but eurobeat clubbin rave music just it almost does it for me but it just don't chief, you know?
i like basically all music except shitty NA "GF took my truck after we broke up with me but i still got my dog and my gun" country western
wtf the best genre
There's some fun county
I like dark country
Shit like John moreland
Sinful Surge (Venthyr Runecarving Power) now extends the duration of Avatar (Talent) by 2.5 seconds when Condemn (Venthyr Ability) is cast (was Last Stand duration extended by 3 seconds).
doesnt make it any better
big dps time
alot of time i still have avatar up when the boss is already below 80%
hahahaha good point
100-80 and 20-0 are the fastest parts of the fight
but you could have a 30 seconds avatar up when the boss hits 80%
i kinda wish we had like double or triple leggos, but not how you might think
its stupid but less bad i guess? i already have the ss leggo from playing fury so atleat i can have fun with it for an hour or two when 9.1.5 drops
like for 3 you'd get shit tier ones like jailermaw or torgy one or norg, and then at top you have cov/spec ones, and general ones in the middle
you'd be able to have one of each, and then you just nerf accordingly
kinda cool idea
there are some leggos i have never seen used which might be nice to see
the exploding rats on for example
This week affix is punishing and the adds hit like a truck
Lol
I'd rather just use the wall
If I had to lose reprisal
Plenty of extra rage
It's shit like this, that makes it feel like blizzard doesn't play their own game
i mean alpha prot warrior sort of showed us they dont play prot at least

I met one of their raid test teams once
Heroic casuals lol
I found it amusing. But the girl was super sweet
thats why they do raid testing on PTR they know they arent as good as the top raiders
the tests they usually do is going on invincible mode and test the mechanics are working correctly and do the x amount of damage etc etc
but they dont need to worry about actually doing the fight
XD
Honestly, I don't mind casually raiding I just want my trinkets
And more importantly pushing m+ with friends
I need to get fun content in somewhere
i would pretty much raid log
Oh I push keys for fun lol
I try to get 10x per week per tank
So ideally I push 60 15+ a week
i dont i would be happy for CMs to come back
Lol
and more on a character I'm particularly enjoying
You do more keys a week than I've done all of 9.0
I think my vaults full of like 17-18 keys rn
And twice as many keys as I've done in s2
I stopped at 21 cause people were forcing me to do beer route
I just want portals
beer route sounds cool
๐บ
wtf beer route sounds fun
i want beer
๐ป
Beer route, is this fucking mop?
pub crawl round halls anyone?
OK now it feels almost like bullying

So it's still not bullying
tbf we're at kind of a standstill with key pushing since we got portals
otherwise I'd be doing more
The portals are a funny thing, lots of people push to get em but never use em cuz they stop doing keys

Hey pull 5 packs every dung no small pull to get cds backs
oh thats me
I want then to have them
KEKW
that's me too
if only they were account wide
I hardly use mop cm portals
Make cm rewards account wide.
Like holy fk
I use that too
Better CD
I use both
I mostly use wormhole to go back to oribos ah
That's called hearthstone
also org tp cloak
To go to dal > org > oribos

Old school
I forget cause I'm pepega
I can't even do the mist maze
Cause I forget before I've seen all the symbols
get the addon
Or tazavesh I have to call them all out onnvoice, becsuse I can't remember the 4 colourd
While I put down the markers
Get weekaura
I swear I have brain damage
Yeah I got auto solver
I follow the bitch into first one
And I make others do the other ones lol
Its not even a hack
It assigns each room a number
There are finite combinations
It can theoretically be done without the weak aura.
i swear to god every time i doig mists 21 -22 nobody doing the maze so i have to run around and make pull messy
it's just a meme i know it's not a hack
Yeah just like venthyr moonkin ramp can theoretically be done without the weak aura
Yeah, someone was like this might get you banned, and I'm like... It doesn't violate ToS.
Just need to do mental calculus
Just memorize each room number and look at spreadsheet of possie soljtions lol
It doesn't work sometimes
How many solutions are there?
i don't know
hmm do warriors have any 40yd things to pull with
vulpera racial
30y ye
Vulpera racial and ravager

๐
I'm a vulpera I need to test this
oh yeah ravager is 40 yards
Yuzu: knows the most worthless Information,
ya know i just posted that gif without actually reviewing it
Doesn't know if I should reflect first or second reaper in top
could've been a disaster
Always reflect one when you get pull to the corner
So basically it should be this order 0 1 1 0 1 0 1
I just wanna maximize my dps
I just reflect on CD tbh
It feels a little janky, so the options are reflect on CD, but do the first or second then on cd
Well most healers need to stand still to heal so if you dont have it when get pull to the corner it might kill you
How come what is your overall dos ?
Pulled 5700
I pulled 5500
I just am a complete slut for parses / damage meters
But I pull like 6k usually oversll
More if my dps are sick
And more on weeks I can pull bigger. Stupid bolstering.
you don't want your dps to be too sick
if they kill shit faster than your cd windows, your overall will suffer
Min: 5.6 k
Max: 6.7 k
For me
I tried many combo but i could't go higher than 7k dps
If I play the lanterns in sanguine well I can finish at like 8k
My favorite dungeon nowadays
I have 2* on both weeks on sanfuine
It's my best dungeon
Didn't even have lanterns
It's just such a flexible timer, with tough mechs
Well i was more talking about lego talents and etc
Otherwise i do 10k overall and more in nw with weapons
Run Seismic.
if you really wanna do damage you go seismic
Profit
yeah
Seismic and kyrain lego with crit stacks from torments are pretty close
x
logs are dps over an entire key right? is there anyway to show dps in combat like details?
I did more dps with kyrain lego then seismic
a sample size of 1
then u dont press revenge enough
simple as

I've gone full offensive with seismic in a weekly key and you do see some crazy burst numbers
with opc
I have to smash harder than
Everytime i do that people saying warriors are op 
gimme more dps warriors should be meta again
F bear tank
Haven't had any issues ever
Just call it out when you can't reflect beforehand
Or just use SW for it
certain classified information would state other wise to us becoming meta again
I kinda wanna try seismic lol
"im gonna take dmg here"
I do that mostly on voice to help healer out and i keep sw for last % since it gets messy and people get hit a lot
Eh
just stand still press revenge comaplin when mwahi doesnt heal u
You can easily get 2-3 SW on that fight
3 if its a tyr
2 if its a normal key
1 if its a blaster key
Yeah i know i keeping it if i make mistake
I mean if its work its work me
Y'all treat your healer to well
You need to slap them a bit, and pull them by the collar. Make sure they stay in line.
Ya, if it works it works
I say this to my healer every pack
actually my most common phrase in discord when tanking
Never since i played healer and i pushed with ond in voice
Making healer mad = bad things
If mine misbehaving, I'd just tie her up, blind fold her. And spank her before continuing with tank and spank.
Imagine a german healer

I calling fbi
how's she gonna heal you if shes blindfolded man
๐ค
It's a shaman, she finds a way
Jokes aside, she's acfuslly extremely good
No idea why she keeps me as her tank lol
Cause she is used to healing you cause as healer its easier to heal a tank you know than randoms
She's a literal god. She could do better.
I'm just a craptastic prot warrior, she could find some gozu bear
What class btw
Shaman
I just like my healer. I hope she doesn't leave me.
I'ma have to keep her ona. Short lessh
Depends on player too but i find those two classes troublesome

Ew
Vulpera
You mention vulpera healers abandoning you, but I haven't even found a dwarf woman D:
How am I supposed to be healed mentally if its not a dwarf woman smh
Where is my human pala healer
Mine is space goat
Noticed
This is my log for mythic eye
i'm getting hurt alot from the eye adds
thats after the swap with 5 stacks
i'm like using all defensives i have including trinkets
they really hurt alot.. i tried to survive phase 1.. got to 40% then end up wiping :(
press ignore pain
this one is the one got hur t the most
no point using shield block on damage that isnt blockable
ok
so i wasn't spamming much ignore pain
how about spell reflect
does it work when that eye leave theh pool dot
You can spell reflect the piercing gaze from the adds, not the boss
demo shout
its a 45s CD
you could have used it multiple times
both for rage and damage reduction
damage reduction as in more ig pain
do you have a third blood shard?
dont
jas, the one absorbing
yes
yah i was using that then i find it that i'm getting hit hard by the adds
doesnt matter
you're not doing yourself any favours
by lowering your net survival + DPS
yah.. ill go back and do the demo and all that
hopefuly i wont die again
but yah that time when others swap at 5 stacks.. i was taking big damage
ill keep the dem shout and ig pain up
Tell your healers that you'll be taking big dmg
Coordinate it with others
Don't be silent about it and surprise your healers with a sudden dmg intake
the only thing you can block on eye of the jailer is the spear from the add
(the one you drag down)
i see i never touch the add.. but only taunt if it comes down
but good to know .. thx for hte talbe
Do all guilds do the swap mechanic?
depends on your dps level
well.. the guild i went with have trouble killing adds without dying to stacks
and alot died to stacks so we did the swap mechanic
works out better only live up to 40% last week we got him down to 36%
we kinda stuck.. we end up dying trying to stay alive in al that..
We started out swapping but now we just stand our ground and blast it
Very doable when raid is at ilvl 245+
yah thats the problem we tried that and everyone got nuked after trying to through more then 10 stacks
it was horrible
Dying to death gaze is a healer mech unironically
i dont think everyone was 245
ya.. thats the rl i guess
The eye hits really hard for 2nd boss
It's pretty absurd
But not to the tank
As people said focus on mitigation
i was like telling healers to heal me hard cos i couldn't keep up with my cds
They still have to heal the rest of the raid with their stacks
thats the problem how can they
ya.. ill do that next try
I'm fairly sure eye has more raid damage than soulrender
i guess ill have to
And probably on par with pain
Eye is 100% The Wall
Or just go damage legendary
ya i was using reprisal
You can spell reflect the adds lens as well
Nah, for prog go wall
You'll have shield wall
For each phase basicslly
ya i got max leggo for that
Not a sigma male mindset
if you're swapping sides you 5 heal
Reprisal is great in most cases
Better than wiping your raid on prog
if you dont you 4 heal
Parse on farm not prog.
But Eye you lose value since there's nothing to block besides the angel
ya we 4 healed it
4 healing Eye is fine
what if i trust dshoo ๐ฆ
Dunno
Not my problem lmao
if you're swapping on the nine, you're going to be taking more damage
because of the dps stop in swapping
the boss itself doesnt have a dps check
we swap at 5
it does mean the tank will go up to 10-12 stacks and you're v likely to get an extra death gaze
if you get the death gaze at like 9/10 stacks or so
you NEED to personal it
as a raid
If I had to go back, I would've had my raid learn the 18/2 swap strategy
Think so?
you dont want high variance on prog
you want consistency
if too many people crit during CDs on 1st add
it dies before 2nd
I feel like constantly readjusting the sides of each player based on their dps, which fluctuated every week due to gear, was such a pain in the ass
straight up
its not based on gear tho
its spec/player
you should have a good feel for what your raid should be outputting as a RL
and make comps on that
I did, and it was a pain in the ass lol
we have our roster in 3 categories for that boss
high burst, sustain, low
high burst is venthyr moonkin, fire mage
sustain is p much every non WW melee, arcane mage, hunter
low is everything else
so you then balance around that
those kinda groupings u kno
Makes sense
If shit got weird I would just tell a certain player or two to go to the other side the next time
Mid fight
having unbalanced sides means you hold dps
which requires more healing
no bueno
use your log data to your advantage ๐ผ
whats the point in logging if you're not making use of the data
u get me fam?
I don't want to be reading Eye logs when I'm progging on Fatescribe
you use the same data for quite a few bosses
fate/kt/sylv
fate for intermission damage who to assign for what
KT for who goes in/out who CDs where
Sylv for who CDs each point in p2
and each arrow set in p1
you can largely copy templates from higher up guilds tho
Yeah that makes sense
don't remember, like 8% or something?
524 aka 13%
Like 3%
10% i think
12 iirc
Not enough to worry about

I might like to try to get that TV trinket reflects damage run that +blade kit in some key for science

is what is, had option of getting the soulstone once lfr (blue upgradeable, red = dead valor version)
looks like bad alterinative to phial possibly if you are desperate
so, can be this a good for tank now?
Sinful Surge (Venthyr Runecarving Power) now extends the duration of Avatar (Talent) by 2.5 seconds when Condemn (Venthyr Ability) is cast (was Last Stand duration extended by 3 seconds)
nope still bad
RIP BoM
What is this P / M weak aura I see on other peoples ui too?
Oh
"will i die to this next tankbuster?"
or if you know exaclty how much an ability will do on high m+
is that true? wasn't really aware

if you dont know how much an ability will hit you for
i saw someone else use it so i figured why not
its a useless weakaura
its to determine if you will live X mechanic
with your current health
thats it
for example on sludgefist when he runs into a pillar you know itll deal X amount of damage
what i did as raidlead was basically say "you need to be above 70% to live, clothies at 80%"
with this weakaura you could turn that into actual values based on how much dmg youre taking and check for yourself if you have enough ehp
yeah had a good bit more armor than any plate dps last time i checked
Impending Victory (Talent) cooldown reduced to 25 seconds (was 30 seconds) and now heals for 40% of your max health (was 30%).
still not worth picking
not worth
but could see some sort of play
there could be some raid mechanic where you dont need the throughput from indom
but then indom gives more max hp
nope still not as good as indom
huge for dps warrs tho, i think?
it competes with storm bolt and double time
double time is a dps up
and storm bold is util
so like... charge? :p
if talented and it procs, you can use it to gain rage instead of costing.
oh so you still only get to use it when you got a killing blow?
think it would stay dead
not so tough with execute and summoned adds
if talents it has a 30 sec cd
ye you always can use it but it resets on killing blow
i could see some venthyr leech exrcute build maybe running it
there is a conduit that makes it heal over X seconds (8 i think) could be part of puzzle, i agree it seems like a stupid idea overall though
but even then, if you were actually tanking something, the self healing you lose from Indom, the rage cost of impending victory... may not even be a damage gain in the end
The conduit is only like 100 hps
Not worth it
It heals based on the amount of damage victory rush / impending victory did
I think the only talent I genuinely experimented with and found relatively useful (albeit niche) was dragons roar
probably a weird crit vers thing, you get IV to always crit so it ticks for more, and then you pray for those to be crits as well, and then versa for buff heal
and that was exclusively for pre-nerf KT and using Korayn
definitely
๐ต๏ธ
oh lord, why does everyone have so little verse D:
i thought i needed to get 20 atleast...
currently at 16
probably doesn't
did they change it?
no
last season i thought it mattered
no
hm
You can't get meaningful amounts of vers to hardcore prioritise it
Literally impossible
fair enough
It's a dumbass braintumor inserted into people from bfa s4
Where you could get up to 110% vers with procs
Aka, relevant amounts
with u also didnt need
the true chads were still wearing crit/haste in bfa s4
Not before 25s after that point hard stacking vers actually was good
I did 23s with 2% vers
And was fine
all i remember about season 4 was "pray for TD"
In WCM I ran a mix set of haste vers and even then I only had like 30%
if you TD'd and it connected, would literal delete trash packs 2 pulls away
shit was nuts
Ya I have a few keys up on Youtube, was good fun
btw, do you guys cast ravager manually, or set it on a macro to cast on self when clicked?
I use @cursor
that's actually quite good
i'll need to look up the macro for that
self cast is cool and all until you want to move it slightly
ah thonk
mouseover > selfcast by lightyears
Especially since you use ravager before you charge
Yes
Self cast has only downsides
Because you effectively waste 50% of ravagers range
Cuz you're never ontop of mobs
You're infront of mobs
yup
So if you cast it on yourself, you only use 180ยฐ of a 360ยฐ attack
thoguh doesn't the ability adjust itself to hit all nearby enemies?
or slightly floats towards them
No
It only moves with the goal to hit a target
If ravager hits 1 target, it won't move
Prot generate rage by auto attacks?
Thank you
yea 2
to quote a great man: "Stop trying to hit me and hit me!"
๐
Shouldn't you be getting hit often as the tank? Lol
I guess blocking is a thing
blocking doesnt stop that
and it depends on pull mob boss what ever u want
take guardian he melees like once a mintue
u dont get much rage from him
Regular attack speed of mobs is 1.6sec
So if you say, fight a boss
It's not 3 rage per second, but 3 rage per swing
If you slow atk speed of bosses with curse of exhaustion, their swing timer drops to 2.1sec
Add in the mechanics a boss does, and you get hit alot less
So the 3 rage per second assumes you get hit often enough to actually get hit atleast once a second.
Or to phrase it easier, you get 3 rage from getting hit, with a 1 second cooldown
Dang thats not a lot
Yup
Do we as prot warriors want that buffed?
Back in legion, aka the good days, you got rage based on actual dmg taken
That makes a lot more sense
So the more dmg you took, the more rage you got
Same for vdhs BTW
They got pain from dmg taken back then
Then with bfa most resource gain moved to abilities and they basically removed the "dmg taken" part
That's kinda lame
Indeed
They also turned most mitigation from % dmg reduction to armor
Which is why tanks are so much weaker against magic
Compared to then
And being weaker tanks in general
So for prot, how does rage generation work on a trash pull?
Same as it does in ST
Most rage comes from shield slam
Then reprisal
Then dmg taken
Then Auto attack
Then avatar / booming voice
Oh yeah and TC
TC?
Thunderclap
Yes
Dang. All I have is the double leap rn.
That's a weird choice
For pvp
Good for carrying flags
Yeah
I didn't feel like tanking dungeons and stuff with the warrior until the other day. To my understanding, pvp and pve are completely different in how to play.
Maybe not completely
Entirely different
They're entirely different in how to play, but have overlapping areas of skillsets
Whereas pvp mostly is mechanical play pve is mostly about execution of rotation coupled with occasional mechanics on timers
Pvp players make better use of their class period
A pvp player only needs to learn how to deal damage
A raider needs to learn full use of all their buttons and utility + mechanical play
sometimes all you need for m+ is gogogo
Huh
Gotta keep hamstring up on eye or it'll leave its tub T.T
I miss disrupting shout
anyone got any advise for fate during prog on mythic shit slaps
