It’s not what I think
i was responding to kir4g
I’m not thinking what you said
protection warrior chat is overcapping on rage boys
Oh boy
There's usually the same perpetrators
🤷♂️

wish carl worked
carl is slow
I wasn't as active when prot was meta. I imagine much bigger arguments must have happened in 8.2 and 8.3
Oh for sure. That’s why it was a no fly zone around here.
Eh
Was fine
8.2 and 8.3 was mostly just vers or leech stupidity
So same as usual
Nome, Skyhold has never been fine you know that. 
miss prepatch jammies
My part of skyhold was always fine

: )

So Safe you can bash on people that use Twitter 
Ofc
is that what this is about what
I use twitter
Nah
I don't know a single person that doesn't bash twitter
Who
i find fury to have more sweaty tc shit in it
I can't figure out if he's memeing me or not
Every channel sucks but ours says every channel in every class discord
Anyways, gotta get away from the stench of the high school locker room mentality. Until next time. Stay malding mael!
prot in HoW has catbombs

idk, haven't lurked enough discords to have a strong opinion
I missed catjamming
:zyzzpls:
I did enjoy mandl's lectures in 9.0
I enjoy the SF dudes around here, the meme that is pinging sense and the toxic mornings of mwhahi


Any discord that doesn’t allow external emotes is immediately bottom tier
Bring back shadowlands channel for the catjamming glory
@brittle owl is my bottom
no u
Googles what scans means
ok, gonna try to push to 20s with my guildies and due to very limited playtime and not so good gear im a bit cautious regarding pulls. group is at AotC level and I wonder if I should be nervous about for instance first pull in ToP playing bosses + bloodhorn?
wth is a scans
some brainlet slang
just try it
you wont learn what you can or cant do without trying it

Can’t even keep up with lingo and you think you’ll be able to keep up with technology
Shitttttt
Boss and bloodhorn just keep it soothed and sudden death inurupted
How old are you maelder?
wouldnt mind trying but with limited time for m+ id rather safe things 🙂
I mean if Google can't give me the answer of what "scans" means
why are you talkin @crude notch
Then im certain it's not a real slang
youre not gonna be able to improve and push higher keys if youre always just doing safe things
M+ is a lot about failure
and learning from that
true i guess
i'm as likely to give you attention as i am to random gyppos screaming for scrap metal
have you tried the pull on a lower key?
yupp
how low?
15s
fair, was tyrannical like this week?
yeah
jumping from 15 to 20 might be a bit of a shock though
mhm
It is quite alot harder just in terms of %
You’re so angry it’s cute
the damage you will take is a big difference
it's not so much on your part, as the tank
Basically the same as “checks out” or makes sense.
more so the rest of the group's
what needs practice there is soothes and interrupts
on your part is cd management
and prio target killing
Ic
and learn to call for externals. having issues where im not the most vocal player 😦
the rest is the same, longer fight, harder hits
first few runs are gonna be a slog to be sure
but if you finish the key that's 70% of the work done towards timing it
Don't trust a statistic that you didn't rig yourself.
That's a life lesson right there
I will be in a few seconds
I prefer old detective 
Same

he died detecting


how come, that is : warrior : ? lol
prepatch 
castle nathria
people where creaming over prot warrior being a dead spec in prepatch
and most of 9.0 tbh
Still remember someone telling me
"Now that bdk is the best tank you reroll warrior?" When 9.1 hit (ty nome)
Yes dude, I like the underdogs

Buff to vanguard in back to back to back beta builds was a bit much



Also.imagine have a 3 min cd that does nothing but increases hp compared to meta which is also a 3 min cd




incarn means you're playing furry butt simulator though
and that is supposed to be a bad thing?
shut up weeb
ahut
a hoot
🦉
Can’t even get down with weebs expects to keep up with technology. Shame.
I joke I joke don’t mald
Clarify pls, im dumb, what cd are we talking about?
last stand
Still increases your haste by 20% and reduces FR CD to like 6 seconds
oh i like the conduit
Last stand 🔫
but i hate last stand
Ah, the rage generator btn
Last stand needs a rework
oh true
Or something else built into it
It just got one! 🙂
Alot of something else
it did not 
It needs a rework to the rework
Last stand rework was the Bolster talent re"work"
Exactly
So it's not directly a rework

Last stand would be amazing if it had bolster baseline
But it doesn't
So it's just a bland button
no can do, no ticket bot here
Or it increase rage gen like now, or healed u for amount hit or somthing
Like it just needs something else

Yup
i couldnt find the complete one 😦
cause im bad
Woah
A rare brown late, a yellow mwahi and a brown Nomer spotted
This must've been 8.1
iirc i just searched leech
and grabbed literally anyone who said it was dumb
and haphazardly threw it into a ms paint
fuck you my art is my truth
:^)
I have enough time for a rng run but the game just gave me the worst combo so far
where in the cringe were you found
I need to breathe some fresh air before I go for this. at least lego rolled SR. key is ToP 18, should be fun
Apart from impending victory, its not even that horrible in top
And the obv dmg loss from playing punish
Does everyone in the key go demon or just you
Got a couple friends that do demon keys every week where they use random talents too.
Just me, I do it with pugs so theres always a chance others might be playing suboptimal ig
Stop with the random builds
Aren't we all just a random build
Waiting for someone to run with the random builds he posts
I mean he runs them
I also provide the pugs with a feast and I go full consumables
I meant some lurker sees his talents and thinks those are standard.

Hopefully they call me a retard and question my life choices
They don’t need to see your talent choices to do that
I meant in here you absolute gorilla
🦍
A lot of thos randos are in here
As i point them to the server and i get told they are in it
Not what i said but okay u believe that
BfA caused a lot of brain rot to prot warriors I see. Clap spam made everyone go dumb.
lol
Jokes on u im still dumb
Erga you’re a weeb so your brain is immaculate never change you beautiful being
Carefull you might get bannerd from this discord too jordan
Warriors are angrery bois
@median timber 👋
@brittle owl 👀
I got banned for pissing guilty off
you're a special kind of retard arent you
pretty sure you got banned for being a contrarian with an attitude 🤷♂️

Pretty sure, that’s literally half the colored names


Jordan got bannered from dreamgrove for being a right ass hole
How would you know? Were you specifically told by the mod that banned me? Or was that just me?
@median timber why are you ripping thyme's hat off
Because it’s monthly hat
shut up cunt
lol
That has lasted a few months
You’re so angry
not talking to you
You’re so angry it’s cute
he's triggering my autism
Doesn't matter
Okay legit you are so mad why don't you chill a little mael
fite me
Use some rage and ignore the pain
Press F to ignore pain, either one of yas
or something
I dont even play wow anymore
👀
high five
Half of this discord doesn't
me neither
🖐️
☝️
that's not a high five :/
:sip:
i got excited
Latter is a PoE gamer rn! Pog!
understandably
RL proggers!
What kind of chemist
He’s gonna poison those who wrong me.
You’re safe, cloud. You’re cute.
😳
I just wanna work in a wet chem lab
I've done some fire assay
But I wanna get into the lab propper
You can time 20s I belief
U really can time 20s yogi
serious question can I stun potion out of mists boss 2 or is it a freeze something else
it's a disorient afaik
If you kick the patty cake casts you wont get disoriented
this is mostly when fox chases as opposed to balls, I know to try to keep her opposite side of where fox spawns
Well fox spawns on players and chases said player, so best is to CC it and just keep the boss away from the fox
I'll avoid the balls get hit with fox then patty if unlucky
best seems to be a roots effect or hex
Ye
Lol
frozen leads to patty spotty caked for me
The disorient is gonna kill your group tho
Patty on a Tyra murders you
Cuz it makes the boss attack someone else
Pop wall and yolo it
Na, just have your highest prio be patty cake
Ye
And just keeping away from the fox
What nome said
yes also true for spires early mists trash and few others
anytime you get disorient you temporarily ntil regain control drop aggro
I'm positive I butcher's that word
2nd boss spires if you stand in blind beam looks just like mists trash blind beam goes smackyour buddies
disorient is a stun that also drops your threat table so yeah
i remember when i started playing prot last season a couple o fmy friends who were like 3200 asked if i wanted to tank some meme keys for them (which were still high for someone woh just started tanking a week ago) and first pack of mists i intervened during that mists frontal, got disoriented and wiped us on the first pack
that was a learning experience lol
replied to the wrong comment cause im bad at both the game and discord
that's partly why I don't like the charge intervene seperation
wanted to charge some mob and intervene dh first pull of dungeon confusion and wipe
i hate, HATE HATE reprisal. intervene is such a good external DR with the conduit and all around utlity spell, being forced to use it on CD is awful
Kek

rep + leaper if we had double legendaries would be pinball simulator
Storm bolt if its too close for comfort
I stopped running storbolt cuz I got pissed off that it did piss poor dmg, and constantly got Dr d by time of use it + another keybind
I just think there are better stuns and cc
rep fits double time as well
dis tbh
Reprisal is a bad legendary design
rumbling is okay, just, you have to hit 3 dudes to get the effect and if not it's like literal dead talent
yep
It's only bad cuz it's on intervene
and I'm cow so I get racial 360 stun, so stun just isn't as valuable
If it was 6sec from charge nobody would say it
that'd be pog
how do you feel specifically it's bad design
like causes you to turn back while intervene
Because it makes you use your safeguard ability of others, for your own personal gain
Instead of the intended purpose of intervene
It's also way overpowered
Compared to every other legendary in the game
true, if be down for it to be nerfed to hell
not fan of having to "giveup" something to get power
I don't want it nerfed, just others equally good
that being charge / intervene
I don't mind reprisal raising the skill ceiling, I want to be rewarded for playing well, and reprisal further increases that ideology
when would u use it tho
I believe that type of attitude should be given to majority of classes and specs where it's always hey I can do this cool thing
the DR is borrowed power. 90% of things that (should be) hit people are either magic or fixates, which it doesnt work on
shield wall almost to op to last beyond 8s
Na
In its current iteration just lowering the CD of SW isn't good enough to make it compete with reprisal
as much fun as that sounds like-40% got 30 seconds I'm positive it breaks game some how
point in case paladin wc3 bubble 45 seconds
The Walls problem is that the AM feedback loop is anemic now
fucking eternity in huge battles
i would much rather get Demo or ravager or something back into AM
than start boosting the SW duration
Rather, the legendary already does 2 very powerful things (halve our strongest devensive's CD, +rage gen on the good move)
making it do a 3rd very powerful thing feels like a bandaid fix similar to how reprisal just does too much (free half/third of a sb, bonus rage, free revenge). Giving more value to the AM Feedback loop would let reprisal stay as strong as it is, but take away some of the value of its effective rage gain bynot having it contribute towards the CDR; which in theory could open the doors for alternative legenadries (namely the wall and anything that increases rage gain)
he'll even current 12s bubble feels like a long time
Timed the 18, what a boring fest to spam devastate on that lich boss
Also idk but it was the 1st time I used dragons roar, felt weak af
Devastate

Take devastator
It will make your life better
See. Good players question my life choices thankfully 
Devastate is such an awful feeling ability
Hes doing talent roulette dungeons
Oh my
they ruined dr
I would ban the first row if I was doing talent roulette
There are limits to how much I can hate myself
Naaa, gotta have some challenge, even the lego goes random
I did miss my chance to bump mobs off the platforms with menace talented
But im also not trying to fail the key and have no idea what would happen
Can't knock off mobs, they'd just snap back or just run back
Otherwise there'd be a lot of knocking off in hoa and soa
in wrath there was some druid raging at people for not doing deathbringer in icc right
and part of his strat was to blow the adds off ledge since it was something you could do and worked, don't remember anything else about him
speaking about knocking off mobs
i still cant believe mindcontrol into jumping off mobs worked in both halls and sd and gave you count if you hit them before lmfao
Early like weekn1
They fixed that mad quixk
It was, but it only ever works with MC
Otherwise mobs wouldn't die
But MC somehow made mobs actually die from being run off
it should be viable, at the cost of the priest's life
i think that stuff should be a bad but survivable debuff thing
play stupid games win stupid prizes
but I can imagine how it would impact pvp where you purposefully do it in eye of the storm
they didnt fix it that quickly, we were doin it during the end of S1, just maybe 2 months or so before it ended
I could sworn that was fixed before like week 4 of mythic
I defer to you though
it took a while for people to realize that was a thing iirc
I noticed some prot warriors started running heavy repercussion on M-Sylv and was wondering if there was a benefit to it over AM?
gotcha
I finally got the nine trinket now I can relieve some of tanking anxiety when doing high m+ and progression raid 
people would have had to be running priests to find it, i think we were one of the few push groups in exitence playing with a priest for some reason lol
although as warrior dps idk if i have room to be making fun of priests for being off meta

oh no, guildie warrior just announced afk for tonights painsmith prog
no more bubble boy tonight, I really gotta learn how to leap over the balls 
remember to update all your weakauras and addons before 9.1.5 or this could be your UI on log in
is the crazy man gone is it safe to come out of hiding yet


Hello prot brethren

hi guys, just started playing prot
one question, what exactly does Shield block blocks?
basically
every meleeability?
every "auto attack"
like deathlink from eye of the jailer?
and most physical abilities
ranged autos as well
not on death link
there is a spreadsheet in the pins
which shows blockable/reflectable things
generally speaking it blocks any attack made physically with a weapon that does phyiscal damage first incase that its multi-type damage
just changed from arms tu prot and its really fun
where'd you pull this from?
playing replisal legendary its fun also
you cannot block ravager like things from first pack DOS for example even though it is physical dmg
cheers
not to my knowledge at least
finally an advantage to being alliance
main reasons to be alliance are for dwarf remove crap and ne fade thing
yeah but all my friends play in horde lol
had to change from alliance -> horde for that
ty!
is the leech anima good for prot war in m+?
what 5th shard are you guys running in M+?
idk if i should do the absorb or the draining aura
is dom socket your best ilvl in all 5 slots?
How is warrior in keys, havent played tank in a while deciding weather to tank on warrior or dh, never really did any mythic plus on warrior as it wasnt around when i used to tank
most ppl run 4 i think
but i think the frost crit absorb thing does about half of what the...other frost absorb one does, for healing that's the best bet i think
Absorb is nasty
Absorb is bis in m+
Check the pins
Yuzu uses shieldblock for undocumented reasons. She uses it to protect her heart when broken.
Damn
@mellow bridge@urban portal thank you
That's deep
they are all 239. i havent gotten any 252 armor mostly trinkets and weapon
ive been coin gang the last 3 weeks too 😦
then yeah probably just wear frost set lol
if my key is a 14 or below it just kinda doesn't get run
Yeah that's for next week
gotta piggyback on someone else's 15+
ran that 13 with some absolute units
crushed it
that's a new PB too (personal best, common slang among speedrunners)
as long as you got frens (even temporary ones) you are in good hands
I'm just really hoping I don't need to find a new healer.
Im sure during my vacation she's found a new tsnk
@sick sentinel how did you meet your healer?
just pugs, lots of the content i do is pugs without voice
NA
Ooo maybe we can play together some time :)
but, i'm nothing to write home about,, aso long as i'm not ruining their time as well i'm happy
i think there is magic in playing with or against an unkown untested player in familiarish setting
some dude that sniped you on call of duty and he sends you a message says your moms fat and then you never meet him again
XD
I can't decide which legendary to run on Mythic Slyv, and what level 50 talent. Any opinions? Part of me wants to run Reprisal/HR, but another part wants to run the wall/AM
I ran reprisal with AM and it felt alright even in P3
Got my kill yesterday 
Grats! We just started prog on it yesterday
we just started prog on it yesterday too and ive been doing reprisal/am
CDR from AM feels really good for P3 dealing with some nasty overlaps. Reprisal just feels good on the defensive and offensive side
Yes, two of them
@finite salmon HR sounds pretty useless on that fight
I ran reprisal am too
But it depends on your job as well
If you're the pool soaker, you should play the wall I think
u dont need HR on that fight at all regardless of job
out of curiosity does anyone run dragon roar at all?
nope
a shame, it sounds like a cool ability 😦
only good when it crits
not even then really
but relying on crits is uh
hm
to be fair i'm wondering if i should go back to booming voice since i'm not running reprisal
but the 20% dmg increase is just very consistent as opposed to booming voice burst
in what content?
M+s
why arent u running rep?
^
but i need shoulders D:
I was running a 190 Reprisal forever.
right well in the mean time u should be running bolster and BV in keys then
nahh
yes
don't need bolster
not in the key levels i'm doing no
a bit overkill to grab more defensives for 15s
though might run BV and find out
You can run w/e in 15s pretty much jeah. 🤷
yeah, was just considering the dps difference between BV and BSC on non reprisal
guess i'll have to do keys and find out
It was generally considered to be the better move to play BV instead of BSC when playing without reprisal
w miko it now kinda lines up perfectly w voice
Iirc isn't bsc like really ass without rep
It's not ass, but reprisal grants you so much rage and alot of revenge procs so that bsc pulls ahead
So it's still aight, but BV is just better without reprisal
Holy shit the nine trinket is pog, it saved me multiple times yesterday in sylvanas clear and m+


I tried hc aegis instead of 252 scale and it feels so much better 
was so hyped to see a 252 scale in vault and now I'm never gonna use it...
I knew it was better, just didnt have it
but scale was such a big deal in 9.0, every tank I knew was gagging for it
because there werent any other tank tinrkets
at what point (if ever) is it worth running 2 tank trinkets? the tank I used to play with always uses scale AND aegis, but I tanked a couple of 20/21s with ows and aegis on and I didnt feel like I'd need another 'tank' trinket
ah
saw some spreadsheet my friend made for his tanks plotting the time for every single cd on mythic sylvanas
I just play fury in raid and unga bunga until my weakaura tells me to rally
^^
played opc/ows, em, full crit gear in top yesterday
(didnt feel like seismic was worth in top tyrannical)
and it was nais
At least you have OWS
I've killed Sylvanas every week since week 3 of the tier and I can't get literally anything to drop
imagine not running unbound changeling smh smh
what about the gold

Is there any good weakaura for tracking incomeing spellreflekt?
this one should work
Sweet! Thanks
only got hit by fox once in that mists 13 last night and was at acceptable time anyways, was able to interupt the patty within .5s
seems to me in the past where it caused the most problems was if it would say spawn with the adds
do you guys think there will be a big meta shift regarding m+ coming with 9.1.5?
dps wise, yes, 100% totally
every dps main is going to be able to try out all the different covs, has to lead to something broken being discovered
i'm excited to see more NF paladin representation personally, give some phys dmg a huge buff
that aint gunna happen
I don't really think covenant swapping shakes up that much...since most setups are pretty well known - but I would guess the dps lifitng will have some interesting impacts...I just fear monks will be high and above everything by way too much^^
there are currently alot of underpicked covenants for certain classes that might get bigger showing
such as NF pal and necro mage, which mage gets to turn into a giant skeleton mage thing and it makes your frost/fire/arcane (blast) bolts fire 3 time while you are in that form
most of them are underpicked for a reason^^ there are quite a bit of people testing stuff and simming , the only thing that will happen a lot is people performing better in raid and m+ overall because they can swap back and forth for it
but, because it was a 3 minute cd and 20 duration, there wasn't really a good use for it, because it would be over incredibly quickly, even adding the conduit didn't make that cov desirable
im just saying it nowe 99% of dps will not drop there dps to give someone else damage they will always pick the highest dps cov
necro arcane is the only viable thing und has very little applications where it outshines kyrian
maybe now that you can pick 2 at once, and any covenant you want, we will see people trying it as meme and it just takes off when it does work
yeah, was doing Xmage-necro early 9.0, but that guys dead now at 190 ilvl, now kyrian arcane, i thought potion give mana cuz only other char is this, warr who doesn't use mana.
I am considering going nf on pala, not for dmg but to get soulshape for painsmith. Same thing with warrior. After that its back to usual
it's pretty sad that my mage is dressed more like a warlock or Spriest
if the colors were more magey, it would be perfect
u can do painsmith without movement speed buffs now
Its not for intermission
Thats the only place you'd really want shape, the balls and spikes in the phases are easy to predict when to move
soulshape is huge for p3
the idea story behind mog is that i'd change him to nightborne when i unlock that, and that's his stolen mana or whatever
On p2 I am getting trapped and trying extremelly hard to save bubblr for p3
cuz, hes primarily been arcane, little bit fire
I need to do proper placements tho and thats on me to improve
If you're a prot pala won't you lose too much damage and raid healing by giving up Ashen though
What I see is if I get that one combo where I only have 1 square to make it back all the way, soulshape allows me to still keep bubble for p3
pala vs druid 2nd tank char
cuz, i ain't doin a healer, and dps i'd have to learn all over again, already got one in mind for dps
We had a prot pala for our PS prog who was Venth, I dont remember if he used his own bubble or asked for the healers bubble during p2
i wonder if there wil be some form of giga catch up after like 2 weeks or 2 months after 9.1.5 comes out for reknown token
But as you said yourself, proper movement and placement is gonna do just as much without giving up a lot of damage from Ashen
Our pala healer is trigger happy with his bop. But theres still today and monday to progress, only if on monday hes not dead im going NF for it
for if you lvld a second lvl 60 say
Same as warrior, was looking for a PoV yesterday only to find sense uses soulshape for the tricky placements
hes first tank tho
u literally can just be second and not care
Same thing that I am doing Jakey
i think it should be like, accelerated if you start story mode for covenants rk gaining
later in the patches, every major quest gives one
Personally I think its fine as it is
You get all the traits unlocked from the skip
Only thing missing is empowered conduits
Assuming you get 2x renown per quest anyway through the skip
painsmith is awesome tho
have a look at the panic
very hard to stand on assigned mark
i don't raid so i don't understand what the issue there was
middle boys with chains have an assigned place to stay for the incoming spikes mechanic
for some reason our hunter panicked and the druid tried to compensate, they ended up dancing around and fucking up
looked like they were trying to do synchronized swimming or a ven diagram or something
keep all the 3 chains attached, (pretty sure thats not how that mechanic goes)
They have to stand on those places they're assigned to, not necessarily keep them attached
Its because when Painsmith throws his weapon, spikes shoot out in waves from those with chains and the tank he throws it on
Sometimes you just gotta see if everyone else is awake
you made this decision 😦
a tank has to cross the ballwall twice in p3 right
i think we did a bop and a monkport
thats what we're doing
how do you predict the future
Magic cock
psychohistory duh

isnt it 3 times in p3 or do you not need to cross for 1 weapon hit
i used soulshape and 2 bops
I thought it was just 2 but I was busy rampin'
cba paying too much attention to tank things
yeah true my raid lead says the same thing
occasionally the raid acknowledges tanks exist
usually when we die
If you take boss first in p3, you have to deal with three tank hammers, and you'll always need to get across the balls before the hammer hits.
If you have Soulshape and two Paladins, that's probably ideal
We had 3 paladins and I was the one running it out. I just got BoPd 3 times
Yeah there you go, easy mode
That or be a Chad human. Wall, leap through the balls, human racial out of stun
You can survive balls running over you with SW if your raid comp sucks; just not ideal lol
yeah you can wall and use a potion to prevent stunning for the funny tech
soulshape is kind of a clencher if you mistime it
or land in between 2 squares and get spiked
I'm necro (because of 3s and I'm a bad raider) so I ultimate form it sometimes
Very early yet, but I'm switching over to prot warrior from blood dk. Thinking about the next week, how would prot warriors deal with explosives? From what I can remember, there's no spammable filler spells anymore; obviously shield slam them etc. Does thunderclap and/or revenge hit them if you target them?
heroic throw
heroic throw if you're out of range
I personally switch off Devastator
You can just tab target the close ones,heroic throw far ones
For Explosive weeks
or just autos/tab target
like your playing whack a mole
if you want to have fun set up a details addon with explosives targeted/killed
so u can shame ur dps
I simp for my DPS and just let them do dam '_'
tru but for some dps/healers getting explosives is p trivial
Whack a mole, cool! Thank you guys 😄
is there a breakpoint for bv over bsc in high tyrannical keys or still always bsc
Not a definite breakpoint, but in ST heavy dungeons like top I can see BV being better than BSC in all situations now that I think about it
Maybe soa aswell 🤔
it's not really a breakpoint thing. in most scenarios bsc will have more output then BV. However... it matters about the damage profile you need for your group comp. If your team is heavy trash munchers like ele sham and ww then more aoe dam not needed but ST dam for high priority targets like bosses. But if your team is heavy ST classes like arms warrior, then u can play BSC on high tyran. Or if you don't have a tricks or MD consider BSC for threat
yee that makes sense ty @patent osprey
was inspired to ask bc saw you were running bsc on high spires keys and other runs last night
No rogue :( last night
needed the threat
always feel free to ask in stream though :)
youre the man. i tuned into the hilarious prot pally runs last week
i made a macro that it's only purpose is to toggle on/off "lock cursor to window"
so i don't have to navigate anything to switch to other monitor or get ready for key
ooof we are getting closer
shit dps players 
well this was a 15
still
but in the 20 before hand the dps told me to hit the first boss
when it had its 80% DR
so u can tell me which is better dps
dps players are always dumb but at least some know how to press their buttons
Nice group lol
Is it hard to learn prot from scratch with no tanking experience ?
relatively so
it’s easier with no tank experience bc then you can’t compare your kit to other tanks : )
cringe take
What 15?
i don’t think it’s especially difficult tho
And is that seismic or reprisal? And trinkets?
its not especially difficult no, but the kit comment is a bit weird
mists
prepping vdh/brew/bdk and their kits feel more modern/smooth at least to me
although prot is fun in keys
and feels rewarding
idk whenever i played my VDH i wanted to KMS cuz i cant stun
now thats a cringe take 😠
felt very helpless
vdh feels like a fucking frankensteins monster of bad ideas
brew and bdk both stole ideas from prot
to make them even remotely interesting to play
For starting out , is it best to go low keys or raid ?
in keys you learn tanking alot better than in raid
Why not both
raid is very simple compared to dungeons
because raid tanking is pressing taunt when ur addon tells you too :/
and you dont actually do anything
I main arms but I want to venture into tanking
i recommend starting into actual stuff right away
Which Addion, dbm?
^
so you know the weight of your actions
Take off gear and it forces you to manage cooldowns during tank busters :)
in low keys you dont know when you fuck up cuz you dont take damage anyways
True lol
in actual content you get punished more, so you learn quicker
Scared to just jump into a 15
Prob like 235-240 with tank gear
thats aight for 15s
You'll be fine
15s are fine for u
it’s mostly just learning and playing around dungeon specific stuff
that u learn with experience
How do u guys know if the % is good during routes
uuuh i dont
You generally have a route planned out before you walk in
Plan it out on MDT, practice
Else u hold w
bdk feels like butt cheeks also
and then go back when u mess up
Lol
You start noticing certain % for certain areas
Honestly you dont need to worry about routing until 20+s
Oh going back to addon that tells me to taunt
just walk forward
grip and gg feel pretty pog
lack of mobility is eh tho
Any essential addons to have?
Ie you need 82% before going into PF final boss room
do things that work dont do things that don't work :S
15 is about when you have to be at least a little awake, but not too difficult
buff trackers
love that design, really makes you feel rewarded as a tank

if the monster casts tank buster 4 times as opposed to 24 times because dps was better, makes it alot less stressfull for all involved
don't have as frequent breaks because party isn't fully damaged or 3 men down at end of trash, healer has more mana
with what threat lmao
the mods you didnt grip will be chasing the dps hahaha
you kinda just learn it over a couple runs. I always check mdt before runs if i forget the breakpoints, but otherwise my s2 routes are pretty fluid for 15s. You also learn which mobs to avoid/skip on fort weeks. Like the named necromancer in NW, people skip him almost every week, unless the tank wants to waste an orb on it.
There is a weak aura, who's name eludes me that will show needed percent for dungeons
It doesn't play well with current dos route. But work pretty good
current dos route is the only one where % kinda matters anymore tbh
since getting to trash after meuzahlalaaah takes like 9 years and we nowdo ardenweald first
Yesterday I set a new personal record in dos. I pulled all the trash in 4 big ass pulls. That was so awesome
This week is a mega push week. It's so easy
Well, compared to the affixes last week it's easy. Unfortunately my group didn't make time. We were about 2 or 3 minutes short iirc (I'd ha e to check my log to be sure)
The arden trash *
ardenweald is pretty fun this week
I pulled the 2 giga packs on HoA after the 2nd boss, this week is really good for pushing
I'd like to do hoa and pull all the trash to the first mini boss. I think there are 2 dog pats, and 3 clusters there
So after the 2nd boss, you pulled the shit In the next mini boss room with that 2x dog pack?
Its possible but be ready to kite for sanguine
Otherwise you will outheal your healer and not in a good way
What I hate about sanguine are stupid caster mobs that turret the moment you're out of mele range
Double so when they have protected casts
Nah the worst ones are those who cast another spell when you interrupt them
