If you plan around failure

brittle owl
#

planning for failure is kindof redundant don't you think

strong forum
#

You already failed

restive ice
#

You don't plan for perfection either

idk I generally play at a level where stuff like that doesnt happen

so I dont have that issue epsilone

You don't safe shit for in case someone doesn't do their part.

brittle owl
#

there are nuance things that can enable you to carry group mistakes

strong forum
#

That's what kiting is for

brittle owl
#

but you generally have little input when someone is a legitimate monkey

Kiting is your failsafe

tropic gorge
#

Shockwave and run is always a good backup

strong forum
#

That's it

jagged pier
#

your thought process it literally im about to get x off cd will i need it in the next few pulls? if no use it if yes dont

restive ice
#

Again

#

Healer doesent heal or is in dps cds

#

Casts don't get kicked

#

You're inside a 5 pack pull

strong forum
#

Then you're dead anyway

restive ice
#

?do you just die and say shit healer ?

brittle owl
#

there are multiple things that have gone wrong until that point

jagged pier
#

well if u havnt poped somthing for a 5 pack pull

#

your playing wrong

tropic gorge
#

Ayyy that was me Saturday in 16 hoa. You die

jagged pier
#

like how is this hard to grsp

strong forum
#

If you don't plan your CDs for a 5pack pull

mellow bridge
#

I dont even understand what argument youre trying to present rn epsi

restive ice
#

How is it hard to grasp that no matter how big your tanking dick is you'll have to overcommit cds to not die

brittle owl
#

ok

#

so your hypothesis is

tropic gorge
#

The game is kinda balanced around cd usage atm my friend

restive ice
#

What hypothesis

brittle owl
#

you pull a 5 pack, healer doesn''t heal because he is dpsing, dps don't kick cd's

#

my question is as follows

#

why the fuck did you pull a 5 pack with monkeys?

#

you're either blind

strong forum
brittle owl
#

not noticing they don't kick in the previous 10 pulls

opal zealot
#

vz on one hand plz? 🙂

restive ice
#

If you do hoa in 10 pulls and you're now doing a 5 pack

brittle owl
#

or you're completely unaware of your surroundings

#

OR

restive ice
#

Then you're probs playing at a key where not kicking is meaningless and you won't die

strong forum
#

OK so, hard reset

tropic gorge
#

Man, groups I pug into m+ cry about pack sizes when I don't go big because dps isn't kicking. And it's almost always the person not kicking that's crying

restive ice
#

Put it like this (^:

brittle owl
#

you are naive and misjudge/mistrust pugs

strong forum
#

What's the point right now

#

What is being argued

brittle owl
#

shit man i don't even know honestly

strong forum
#

Using CDs, or holding CDs for misplay

brittle owl
#

i just see shit arguments

strong forum
#

Cuz we're rn

#

Arguing the same point

restive ice
#

You're telling me how to play in a world where everything is just going perfectly

jagged pier
#

no

strong forum
#

No

bright flax
#

look, sometimes I commit all defensives on 1st DoS pull, sometimes I don't
the way I play around it is the next pull will either be the lieutenant or another big pack
no matter if I'm going with pugs or not

jagged pier
#

we are not

tropic gorge
#

Wait. Hold on

#

You can pull the first dos pull without chaining all cds?

jagged pier
#

your saying we are telling u to not use cds in a 5 pack pull apprently

#

which is literaly nothing along the line of what we have said

tropic gorge
#

I bow before you. I cannot pull that off

strong forum
#

The entire discussion was about using CDs rotationally and not holding them forever

#

Right

#

?

bright flax
#

shit does happen sometimes but I've already planned that before we start the key coming from experience

strong forum
#

Using CDs effectively

bright flax
#

some other stuff I have no idea what to do so I wing it and learn from it

strong forum
#

And a 5 pull falls under that category no matter what your group is doing

#

To use CDs

restive ice
#

The discussion was someone saying aegis scale and wall aren't panic buttons and you never have to use them unpredictably

strong forum
#

They aren't panic buttons

#

Indeed

bright flax
#

over repetition I end up noticing the patterns where I need cds and where I don't need them but a smooth run with the warrior usually makes me not needing to panic use

strong forum
#

Use use them before you take dmg

restive ice
#

That is literally what I'm disagreeing with , if shit goes bad you ll have to use more than you planned

strong forum
#

Well duh, but that doesn't mean they're panic buttons

restive ice
#

Ah so we got lost in semantics

ionic fern
#

I forget that LS/DS exists after i stopped playing Bolster/BV so i got those 2 as "Panic buttons".

restive ice
#

I see

Does that count?

If shit goes wrong, you ofc have to use stuff

restive ice

Nah man wdym

Always plan cds perfectly !

You see how assinine what you're saying is ?

But if shit goes south ofc you gotta do smth

So once again I ask this of you@brittle owl

the problem with that statement is you use cds before you spike low

Heya guys

modern brook
#

👋

dense oar
#

Sry to the vague question, but what’s prot like

#

Compared to specs like bear

#

I’m talking about m+ specifically

modern brook
#

when you say like

#

do you mean

#

how it plays in comparison

dense oar
#

Yeah

#

Not in terms of meta

modern brook
#

in m+ prot warrior is way bigger on proactive damage reduction than bear

dense oar
#

More just what it feels like, experience-wise

modern brook
#

so its a lot more of expecting damage spikes and responding before you take it

#

where as bear is basically just thrash -> ironfur -> waiting for incarn to come back up

dense oar
#

Ok that makes sense ig

#

Do a lot of prot warriors play high keys?

modern brook
#

yeah

dense oar
#

Like 25+

modern brook
#

yeah

tranquil mortar
#

Should i stay kyrian for@keys? If so, mikanikos?

#

17-20s

modern brook
#

its in general harder to play prot warrior than other tanks, especially at that level becasue prot warrior will actively punish you for not understanding how, when and why you're taking damage

dense oar

That makes sense

#

And it does indeed sound hard haha

The price of fuel, and by extension the price of everything isn't coming down any time soon. If you all have any means of storing shit, I suggest doing it

Friday the bulk price dropped 4 cents on gas and 3 or 4 on diesel. Sounds good, except the price last week went up over 20 cents on both

Yaaaa

But saying wall is best for raid

Imo

Just because it's used in that word combination

mellow gorge
#

i mean theoretically wall is meant for raids

brittle owl
#

no

bright flax
#

Wall is also bland, if someone wants to at least do something cool with a lego reprisal will suffice defensive and offensive needs and provide charge weaving as a way to play

The Wall is a good lego.... it just meh overall and reprisal, when used well, is just so good

Reprisal is just too strong

#

Period

brittle owl

true it actually turns you into a lego piece

mellow gorge
#

tho reprisal is cool and all, you need a burst defensive more than consistent for raid afaik

#

ah yes

#

i step on the enemies by charging

strong forum
#

It's literally just that you already get SW every 1.5min with AM

brittle owl
strong forum
#

But with reprisal you can get over 80%++ blocked hits

#

So there's legit no downside

#

Reprisal is also more damage

mellow gorge

50-55 is theoretical max

brittle owl

how can i check for blocked hits in detials

you can't

need to log

mellow gorge
#

it do be annoying

#

but ye idk, i probably won't find myself using reprisal if i were to raid

#

much rather have the wall since it's mostly ST

brittle owl
#

people say that

tropic gorge
#

I know it's unpopular, and slightly under performing, but damn it I love the wall

mellow gorge
#

upside of reprisal is that cotank is always next to me

#

but ye that's about it

brittle owl
#

until they actually start raiding

#

and see there's not much to do besides parsing after prog

and parsing is fun

Nothing wrong with playing the wall, but reprisal is just better in every aspect outside of pure magic dmg bosses

i wanna run TL smh

clap all dem cheeks

i just crafted rank 1 reprisal after using the wall

its a pretty stark diff in block uptime

it is insane in m+

my average uptime for sb raw is 40% w the wall

#

i could probably as mentioned reach 90% w reprisal

which is a l o t

ancient reef

yes i went from about 40% to 75% in m+ and im not using it 100% yet

just gotta remember to intervene

thats just block buff uptime i cant check for blocked hits

if 75%

in m+

85% blocked hits

it's generally same same

if not 90%

it is nice to leap away if there is no death mechanic that needs it

You are correct, but some will be more enabled by the buff than others

necrolord in raid is basically just trying to maximize glory leggo and lmao banner execute

ppl that get buffs is a nice 2ndary

the draw back is no spear/aa and no reprisal

I just logged and looked lol

sick sentinel
#

2 druid 2 warrior group

tropic gorge
#

No heroism aye

sick sentinel
#

can't see it going well

tropic gorge
#

It's always cool when a group comp that should be a total fail goes smooth. Good luck man!

bright flax
#

2 druids = 2 soothes for big ragy boys

#

2 warriors = 2 rallying cries for raging spirit rage casts

#

also trees

tropic gorge
#

Bonus points if neither druid has trees looooool

bright flax
#

and it's a 10 for which they seem way overgeared so I can't see it going that wrong

sick sentinel
#

time for splat to lotus

tropic gorge
#

Man I could tell you some stories from running low ish keys with people that should over gear it, only for the entire run to be a shit show

#

the push never ends.

#

i wish there was a way for active conduits to save for a spec and swap when we swap specs. a couple times now i've gone full dumb and didnt touch my binds, show up as dps with tank conduits or vice versa

crude notch
#

If you’re worried about comp in a 10 that’s pretty cringe

tropic gorge
#

no it's not. for some people 10 is difficult content.

#

everyones at different levels. yeah a 10 should be ezpz, but for some it wont be

#

so blizzard is saying that an improvement to the lfg tool will be, as an example "search 12-14 to see keyys in that range". we kinda already can. if you search "16", it'll show you 15, 16 and 17 keys

Question -- [Reprisal] - this legendary - dose Revenge generate 20 rage ? ? cause revemge uses 20 rage ? ?confused some

crude notch
jagged pier
#

whenever u charge or intervene u gain the rage they give + 20 rage and 4 secs of shield block

#

u also get the Revenge! buff

#

which is a free revenge cast

teal swift
#

It's like +60 rage

#

Every charge

sullen trellis
#

alright - I dont use charge or intervene munch so what is good legendary

teal swift
#

20 from reprisal
20 from revenge!
20 from 4s sb

mighty valley
#

reprisal and start using charge + intervene, lol

teal swift
#

Intervene is like 80

mighty valley
#

honestly, even if the only thing you do is charge on pull, reprisal is still the best legendary, at least for m+

#

and there's a ton of room for it to get better from there

sullen trellis
#

alright - thansk

sick sentinel
mellow gorge
#

my eyes

#

what am i looking at

#

everything is everywhere

sick sentinel
#

ran that +10 i was talking about 2 warriors 2 druid 1 hunter

#

sloppy on first 2 pulls deleted, then not so bad

#

i could show a video of what happened but it would be an affront to all the senses including thought (thought is now a sense)

#

i don't believe this recording has sound for whatever reason but i'm going to upload it maybe share it or not, not sure yet.

#

because of asmon gold its forever "the trashcan"

mighty valley
#

you can't give a different nickname to soggadon dyz

#

his actual name more of a meme than anything people come up with

sick sentinel
#

trash can, fear dude, fire bitch and mr freeze

#

cuz, i only ever die to the fire guy

#

no joke, this is all i can think of whenever i pull that ice guy

modern brook
#

Reprisal demand rotational changes to be worthwhile

#

They're just very worth while

mighty valley
#

i mostly just think that our other legendaries are bad enough that even with very lazy play reprisal is better than them

#

but yes, don't be that lazy

modern brook
#

I mean fair but wall and seismic exist

#

And both are good enough over not using reprisal reprisal

sick sentinel
#

didn't catch what for, but one of the druids ran outside after 2nd pull to change a talent

modern brook
#

Glory, and em also exiat

sick sentinel
#

i assume for more healing or some utlity talent

mighty valley
#

i just think a newbie tank is better helped by getting a rage infusion and freebie SB on pull than they are getting more damage or a cd reduction on shield wall they're probably not using enough already

#

this is mostly to say, even new tanks should start with reprisal, and just make using it a part of what they improve at

broken nexus
#

So how do you guys maximize your benefit from reprisal? Prot warrior was my main in bfa and played some in 9.0, but just getting them back into M+ (running ~15s). I understand the basics of the leggo, but do you have a “rotation” you work through to shoot for that 100% hits blocked, e.g. like charge in, shield block, get some aggro, revenge, leap out charge back in, shield block, intervene, yada yada yada. (On top of your dps rotation of course)

ancient reef
#

so do we have a new m+ season when .5 starts

broken nexus
ancient reef
#

well i was mistaken

mr chains m+ dude, gives anima

#

Nah I meant who

#

For asmon

sick sentinel
#

famous streamer asshole tv character like

#

athene with out "my bitch"

timber junco
#

Or if you're in pugs and see someone use a aoe stun like totem from shaman see your opportunity and take it

#

Like someone else said if a melee is extremely close to you, you can intervene them without the pack moving at all

dreamy wedge
sweet summit
#

it's already got pretty good stats and the effect is nice. i could see it being used

sweet summit
urban portal
#

It's like 20 dps tho

#

I can't help but feel the stats will outscale it in aoe

#

Really fast

#

May be diff for prot

sweet summit
#

20 dps effect for free > not 20 dps effect for free
but yeah, waiting for sims for sure

urban portal
#

But on arms using this ring basically a wash with a generic 252 on st

#

On aoe it's heavily ilvl favorex

sweet summit
#

can't really compare it to arms as arms attacks super slow, whereas prot attacks much more frequent

distant crystal
#

should be best for like

#

rogue/feral

sweet summit
#

yeah

distant crystal
#

even for outlaw i guess since it flurries

ocean reef
#

Truly insane

sweet summit
distant crystal
#

yeah but they use slow mh

ocean reef
#

Some people haven't forgotten Combat and see outlaw as their own class

sweet summit
#

smh

ocean reef
#

They also got S&D with their offhand passive

sweet summit
#

main gouge or w/e?

ocean reef
#

Something like that

#

Haven't played outlaw since bra

#

Bfa

sweet summit
#

bra

ocean reef
#

Doesn't sub also use blademaster or w/e

ocean reef
sweet summit
#

weaponmaster, but that's just backstab and shadowstrike

#

but sub uses double dagger and has S&D

#

but also

#

haste 📉

ocean reef
#

Oh

#

Smh

#

Thought sub would love it but guess not

#

I just know they love WF

urban portal
#

With 6 pis

#

27 dps

#

On guardian

sweet summit
#

huge gain deadge

urban portal
#

Probably rogue exclusive ring

sweet summit
#

the effects damage scales with ilvl right?

#

how much is it at 246

ocean reef
#

It does

#

36 is max ilvl

#

Oh I miscalculated it as 37 when I did my quick math

#

Worse than my result would've been then

urban portal
#

Damn I was calcing at 27

#

So we'll see

#

Definitely a thing on st then

#

Just not in aoe

sweet summit
#

definitely not a must have

ocean reef
#

Its still ptr

#

So who knows

sweet summit
ocean reef
#

They'll revert it to 10%

sweet summit
#

how did melee damage work in legion

#

they reworked the formula with bfa didn't they

ocean reef
#

No idea I was a pleb in legion

#

Tho some said that AA was kinda stink in legion

sweet summit
#

i remember something, but i don't know what it was

urban portal
#

Could just pull a random arms log in legion

#

See how it looks

ocean reef
#

(Weapon Damage + Attack Power / 3.5 * Weapon Speed) * Damage Multiplier

#

Is what I could find

#

Thats for legion according to this wowhead article speaking of changes between legion and bfa

ionic fern
#

Wasn't that for ability damage changes?

sweet summit
#

Avg. Weapon Damage + (Attack Power / 6) * Weapon Speed

#

found this for bfa, before damage amps like vers

ocean reef
sweet summit
#

i don't know mwahi

ionic fern
#

Smh

ocean reef
#

:(

#

Well

ionic fern
#
Damage = ( Wdmg + Strength * Mastery / 6 * Wspeed ) * Versatility * Target Armor Reduction
weapon speed = 2.6 for 1H, 3.6 for 2H (constant not affected by haste)```
#

That's what i found in one of the smart discords. 👀

ocean reef
#

At least I know I'm still blind when it comes to reading article titles

#

Wasn't vers in bfa

ionic fern
#

Was 2018 Bfa?

#

I can't remember.

#

😂

ocean reef
#

It was

#

It was a dark year

#

So it's okay

#

Though wowpedia says spirit was replaced with vers in 7.0.3

#

Not sure if that's the same vers

#

Looks like it was

#

Forgot vers was a thing in legion

ionic fern
#

Anyways, why are you discussing melee damage formula from Legion?

#

👀

ocean reef
#

Curiosity I guess surrounding the AA ring from COS

sweet summit
#

yeah

ocean reef
#

My nutty LFR log

#

As example

#

Guess that 10% wouldn't have been that bad

#

But its a bit of a wank example tbf

sweet summit
ocean reef
#

Considering its a %, it'd have some insane scaling for bis geared fury warriors I suppose

#

In the end this is just gonna make me reminisce about better times deadge

sweet summit
#

better times when i didn't play bad game deadge

blazing condor
#

man i'm deadge

sweet summit
#

Times when I was a bad player but had fun with the game deadge

#

Outplayed by Mwahi again

ionic fern

Outplayed by the Search function.

Well they changed it so it’s not 10%

In mythic keys anyone should be able to mark and do /pull imo

Hello everyone! I am thinking of switching spec to Prot. It will be appreciated if you can provide a stable rotation for Mythic Dungeon. Since 9.1.5 is still not yet out and I can’t switch covenants without requirements, I’m with the Venthyr now. Thanks!
