skirmish should be a bit better on ST, and stats should be better on multiple targets 

can you leap over the spiked balls on painsmith?
i have about a 50% success rate with it 
hmmm
iirc you have to pass the balls at the highest point of your leap
(i have only tried twice)
so be like 3-4 squares away?
daily reminder
Tank's job is to lose HP so others don't
not do damage
@ionic fern
because i haven't been reworked to be better for you
Sooo if i go full dps gear
Then iโll lose hp faster
Meaning i do my job better

silence, healer
I'm beginning to understand this
this week has been especially bad
idk if all the good players are playing ff or something
All good players dont play anymore
Why would you push rio now if youre already good
Same with raids. You got it all by now
wdym i still play 
i still dont have sly shield
so incorrect
I said good players
brainlet smol pp take. so wrong smh

if tanks shouldn't do damage, explain shield slam and revenge @sullen valve
i thought so ๐
Because some people like to play m+
Even when bad 

Its a way to keep threat. That is all
A way to force the mobs to keep on you instead of the dps 
Good luck with that
Then why do dps have taunts
Where is the DPS player?
intervene as arms
beggining of the instance because he released like a monkey
ook ook
Not a real ability
How u gonna have a santa hat on another hat
Easily
what would make someone like me want to roll DK for tank?
i don't fuck with monks and druids
could transfer 34 druid but then i'd have to lvl him still
Dks have a swprd
Bears only have bear claws
Mass grips
Main reason to play dk for me
But none anymore since they are utter trash atm
Back in bfa they wrre cool
Typically their secondary stat scaling makes them good end exp tho
They get huge health pool
But I think it's gonna take a little more than that this timr
Every tank can do cutting edge, every tank can push decent M+ keys..some just start stronger, and or are mechanically easier to manage. Sire Denathrius is the only boss I can think of in a while that some tanks couldn't do every 'part' of the fight.
That either required a certain covenant or the assistance of another class (warlock).
Dude I recall a lot of tanks getting absolutely slapped on sludgefust pre nerf
Dk prime among
But even my pal
if my balls were bigger i would push more keys with my 262 glory
Hm? I don't remember when we did it but we did it as Prot war/Guardian Druid and it was fine.
i did a 13 pf as glory 262 with impending victory ๐ +2 chest
Yea guard too
I think it was like week 2 or 3 of mythic? I don't remember.
It might have been like the 2nd week of rain or even the 1st week to be honest
In that time I know DH's were doing it, I know paladins were doing it..pretty sure a BDK could pull it off, maybe they'd have to ask for an external I dunno?
baldy man bitched a bunch that he wasn't able to kill sludge so they nerfed him yeah, i remember that
wiped all day to him
And the problem with it was some Warrior cotank would heroic leap away or a monk would barrel roll and I would get clapped so I got kicked that first week
I mean I did ? Whatever that bridge boss was in Legion..the one that just stacked a fire DoT..? That warriors 'couldn't' do..Yeah that guy ate my face but we pushed through it finally; I wasn't even the bottleneck it was the dps not killing the fire orbs quickly near the end that was.
Just one mistake from a cotank using a mobility would cost me a life
But even if it was perfect it was honestly borderline through put
Monks guardians and proud Warriors seem to be fine
bleh, i have to do a 15, and its halls tempted to just swap to kliea for the immunities, only a 15 right?
Well yeah but that's "if my cotank messed up and killed me with a mechanic.." everyone had to deal with chains on that boss. And yes within a few pulls you realize you can't just leap out and charge in; you simply had to play the fight as 'intended' and walk back and forth.
yup, there are times when you want to 3, 4 and 5 head the fight accordingly as a group
Halls is booty 'cause of the nuke damage from the vampires but at a 15 it's ...equip seismic boots..go ham~
there are tons of "do nothing bosses" this week especially
you just fart at them and they fall over, all the trash is the scary part
Speaking of which..I should get back to mashing my face into Darkheart thicket..
I got the whetstone; I want the tank trink from darkheart and then the other dps trink from vault..no idea why I'm doing it though LOL
I think I want to play next tier with a Trackball.. I just feel that making the game hardmode and uncomfortable at the same time is the right play.
VDH was literally part of every world first kill in that tier
Saying only warr and monk could do it is a joke lmao
And bdk isn't "utter trash", they're strong rn
I know; that's why I'm saying it's so rare that a tank legit CANNOT handle an encounter; Warrior vs whatever the bridge boss in legion (in night hold) was one of the worst balances in a long time and we could still manage to get through it.
Yeah ik that you know
I'm referring to this
The only relevant monkaS fights in the last two tiers would've been very early paladin on sire and probably warr on sylv
What sucked is that we had to deal with that tier for a little bit; it was a little while into Night Hold before we got the 'patch' that helped warriors. That was when they reduced the CD of spell reflect and added or? increase the mitigation of it? I can't fully remember LOL.
Every other fight is just copium
And even then both tanks were represented in the top 20 respectively probably
LOL tell me about it~ I tanked through Sylvanas (after various nerfs to the encounter) but she was still a bastard.
wasn't too bad, besides get knocked into some trash i didn't want to and then die to next
EZCLAP SON..nice work
I remember 8.0 warrior being ass asf
Couldnt block ranged attacks
IP was on GCD
i still played and had no problems
Not saying we were objectively bad to play. But compared to today it felt ass
what a chonky chonker
but alliance has shield problem, anyone found a decent solution?
meh whatever, I dont like the mog that much anyway
cant beat the panda-hat imo
Panda hat gang
idk i prefer to put a noose on pandaren
Hm I see
WHats the best talent and soulbind (kyrian) for more dps? currently gearing and doing suuper low keys
thank you ๐
3112231 gang
Hell yeah

pjotecjion
wjosls ojsf wjoljojat
yes thats very good mael 


๐ซ 
skyhold fell in the deepfrier today 
Valarjarj
we all dried out cause channel is
and we all in DG now
Good morning:)



Why are you all speaking polish.
Stop bullying DG. They got their hands full with all the "MAGE TOWER SO HARD" people as it is.

pjot wajjioj jevej 
im actually not bully i got and help ppl or try to
but no one believes me when i say u dont need gear

and that the challenge is now easy after the multiple nerfs

Did they nerf it again?
yer the pool in p1 is .5 yards smaller
so u can just swipe and thrash outside easier
Why does that even matter?
u could do it before
o.o
the thrash and swiping for ppl that 'cant'/ dont like boomkin form
because apprently thats not part of being a guardian druid
u know shapeshifting
But..why would they make it smaller then?
Isn't it then just legit as prot warr?
Go in->6 stacks->Go out
?
What
๐ค
and ppl complain alot
maj tojejj
Can we start complaining about prot warrior one also?
i got knocked off once.
I don't like that.
the change basically means u dont need to care where u stand
Plz remove knock off.
....................................................
I wonder how many of them are mythic raiders.
there was a dude
getting knocked off is the only relevant part in those challenges ngl
complaining bout annihilate
mwahi its so bad sometimes
while not having SI bound
โ๏ธ
just dh and the knock isn't relevant 
was still in his spellbook
i mean ive done all the tank challeneges
Nerf everything so 3 year old can do the content haha

like mwahi i got called toxic for suggesting ppl should just spend time learning the mechanics instead of farming gear
"Sir im KSM and 10/10hc so I'm not a terrible player and I still find it overtuned"
cause its likely they will kill it
all this a lot
Game should be as it is. U can do an achiev fine. You can't? Npz that is how it is.
- do you have the skill to beat MT?
- if yes - brute force until you learn it and get it
if no - farming gear wont help you

the problem with the guardian challenege is because they locked this form behind it, which means its u know this extra thing, and ppl believe they should have it
like last week someguy with saying he was entilted to it because he pays a sub
also ppl saying the MT should be for all players
g druij bad
But the spirit should be for some things to be unique. Not everyone gets it
ah yes the old "i'm a paying customer so i should always be right!"
thats the entire point
๐
It is for all players. ๐ค
You can hop in it...if you fail it that's on you.
๐คท
idk cosmetics items such as this belong in the best form of wow content, the cash shop!
like ive called a few ppl out in DG cause they are like 'i do 15s and hc raid but this is impossible, way overtuned' and then u hit em with a 'sound like u think your better than u are' KEKW that shuts em up
SO TRUE BESTIE !
it should be a flex of card skills!
Well, tanking a +15 on a guardian is kinda..sleeper.
tanking on a guardian*


I'm like 220 ilvl with 190 UFR and i just faceroll through everything.
no as it should be doable for all players which it is, but what they actually mean is it should be 'easily' doable for everyone ergo free loot and not a challenge
๐
๐
Oh, yes.
Lets base the difficulty of all the content on the lowest skill lever players. That's definitely healthy for the game.
was there as many people who complained about CM in MoP and the armor sets?
who cares about health
i dont remember
when i can spend money!
no
same with CMs in WoD
I dont remember that being a thing either
MT there was an outcry when it first came out
but then disappeared
yea
well
we didn't have trump back then to radicalize all the karens

I mean..idc if they make a "easy mode" version but then remove the rewards from it..๐คท
howbout
people would still cry lol
ppl have asked for that which im fine with but whats the point in it then KEKW
the mental on some people is just way too retarded tbh
No idea.
People are weird.
I dont get it, it really isnt hard at all, it just requires some commitment to practise and get it done
they're basically saying "i play this game the way i want and i have no ambitions to improve at the game"
or 'different rewards'
how can you not want to get better at your hobby
Weird. ๐
tbf i will say this the druid one now is much much easier than it was pre nerf
Well, one of my friends just plays as a casual..runs around and picks flowers and what not. Doesn't even do higher than mythic 0's.
why get better when you can drag the entire system down to your level 
He tried mage tower..failed miserably...was funny.
thats fine
some ppl just want to do professions
like some ppl want to be like the best BS or whatever on the server but that doesnt work cause profs are shit
i always try and be as good as possible at what i do if i like it
its not fun to be bad 
I really enjoyed the MT, even while it took me around 100 tries
I relearned a lot about our class, I am not ashamed to admit
thats how it should be
(shield block improves shield slam damage, sorry)
but for like 90% of players they dont want to learn they are shit
and the game doesnt let them do that, as u face roll 90% of content
so most players just like face roll and when they hit somthing hard they just dont do it
cause 'im not bad, game is overtuned'
like there was a guy complaining he couldnt do it
because he didnt have the gear
i told him i did it pre nerf without gear
and he was like well u obivously play druid
and i was like no go look at my char
then he was like u obivously raid and do m+
of course i do thats what i do in the gam
HA
i suggested because he doesnt do that content
maybe MT wasnt for him
and then yer
what mael said
oh and ppl saying if its done in 25 attempts thats not free content
๐ค
honestly you all put too much heart into people struggling and choking on copium
just sit back
grab your mouse
and enjoy the show
right click copy some spergs wall of text complain from time to time
Jake your wrong mage tower is for me to learn absolutely nothing and then say its overtuned until i get my free mog



ngl, every time I saw Jakey writing MT is easy while I couldnt get through p1 still, I thought that all the time
aye
i do have my backing of prot warrior to say that and i did them all in legion as well
like its of course going to be easier for me than most ppl
its all good, the fact that most people think gear is the problem, I am making an absolute fortune on the AH
but ppl legit complain about how much gold they spent on stuff
someones source of salt is your source of money
can i sell salt?
this is a very good example about percieved difficulty
esp with bear
people dodnt cry that much in other tank discos
not nearly as much as in dg
apprently prot paladin and vdh was quite bad
because bear current iteration has a very low skillfloor
felhammer was quiet lmao
havoc was harder
and there was that one pasta yeah from how
yer but like umm maybe wow forums about them then
like VDH was a joke
paladin semi joke
its a statistical thing innit
bdk i only did after the nerf
need x amount of complaints on wow forums for them to bleed into class disxs
but thats still easy u just need to get used to doing the damage
i cant imagine any large vdh complaining wth
vdh has one less mechanic by default
yer
like it was a joke in legion too
look ill be honest the hardest part of the tank challenges for me this time around has been figuring out the class and then figuring out how to do damage
like the actual tank mechanics are not hard
like too me a few pulls to figure out how to play/push the damage on VDH, BDK and paladin
i've said this in dreamgrove
your perception of difficulty depends on what you do regularily
once i figured that out i was getting kruul low almost instantly
of you do content where your hp bar barely moves
yea same here
when you hit that second annilihate you'll be shocked
i was one BDK the first time i saw it and went to like 20 hp

no rune tap
cause dumb
but rune tap and inst DS sorted that
then ice bound then Kruul dies cause he has like no hp for BDK
runetapping just makes it boring
gotta get that full hp ds

oh yeah they nerfed kruul hp for dk didnt they
lmfao
hardest part for me was figuring out how to kill the adds quickly enough to not die to their cast
since they moved with you pre-nerf
but then I looked at my buttons and everything worked out

I'm still doing prot warrior even with bull yelling at me
Just gotta play the game correctly right
My favourite argument is
"I pay the same sub"
Yeah you pay the sub to have access to it, you don't pay the sub for the same outcome
:pega:

Ah it's only a game end of the day
Winning is just gravy
We'd have all given up by now 8f it truly was as shit as people say
wat
?


How can I use brain i don't have
Hey mighty warriors
any testing so far for the 2g2 set up as prot in 9.2?
Necro&Reprisal?
How can we see if our eyes aren't real
uj breij
You can't test it yet
how do i know your colour red is the same as my colour red
you dont 
That's real real tbh
I've always wondered about stuff like that
Like, try to describe a colour
its green bro
exactly
Shits fucked
welcome to basic epistemology 

sorry kids, santa ain't real, your deep woah moment about color isnt either 
white
But how do I know how that my white looks like your white
because we have different systems for representing color if my white was your green in language, then in hex code we would end up using diff codes
get cross referenced nerd
at least i ain't a wannabe deep cunt
My cunt is very deep thank you very much
Er well if your red is my green you are fucking color blind
My job had me tested so no
Had to go fucking out of my way to test a bunch of shit before I was allowed to learn the profession
Very unfun
spoiler: we all see the same green unless colorblind 
If you go into accessibility options in wow you see 3 options for color blind I won't even attempt to know like I know how to pronounce them
Logan
jake?
It's new
But yh switching to those options it makes things easier to view if you can't see a certain color
oh nft meme
Color blindness more common in males than females
well color me impressed
What colour is that

ic
Depends 9n the pattern you select
nOt EnOuGh RaGe!
Neither
flaming nome for his colour theory when even neuroscientists arent sure 
My theory? maximised
your theory? Minimised
is that a meme i dont recognize
Idk where its from but it surely must be a meme
It's clearly green
i aspire to have nome lvl hair

In my 15 halls last night I fucked up in a bunch of ways but I don't think anything too terrible
The ice LT before first boss I swear I was out of it probably those tornadoes put me in it pulled shit died to 3rd bar npc for first boss
Took some dmg on 1st boss not entirely sure,
Last boss was a bit mess, 2nd/ 3rd boss sections were all easy
How many crayons have we eaten this morning
Just 1
1st crayon of the day is always the best
I don't know entirely what happened o first boss but I was taking circle damage and I looed up and group was dropping so I rallied
those slugs man
Nothing besides getting the pastor dude at end of dungeon after first boss was trouble for us
the slugs no one puts DPS on lol
Cuz u always have to do a weird double interrupt
One for at spawn one for center of room and then you plop him wherever adds gotta die
Otherwise he just sits up there casting shit like an assnole never moving at all
hes running in center without interrupts coz yre in los
Have you been feeling tankier
im on the outside looking in here. Coming over to prot war from brewmaster. Its gonna be very hard to put my brewmaster away but i want the utility from prot war. I feel tanky as fuck on my brewmaster and i worked hard on learning it. But RC and BS are just so god damn good
Lmao pwar utility???
brewmaster utility???
prot war has more utility than brew lol
thats all im saying
that and it does feel good not always bleeding damage ๐
Rop
i mean, fort bursting bleed enrage dogs doesn't help me feel any better about my self lol
they hurt alot even on 15 with druid and 2 shaman
what?
what dont you understand
nobody is saying you are wrong i think, im not actually giving a shit about your conversation yet
but explain what you mean to us
new prot warrior talking with veteran players about prot utility > brew
???
It depends on how you view utility
it's shockwave fear rally vs legsweep rop clash para for m+
i mean....brewmasters have no raid cooldowns they dont do anything but to themselves
not a massive gap either way
if you count SELF utility brewmasters are absolutely godly
If you want to include stuff like rop then yes
youre correct in that sense
i still like (IV) my pretend deathstrike ability, despite what you guys say
if we're talking about raid utility it's bs + rally vs monk debuff yeah
If you are thinking in a raid setting it's just 1 buff vs 2
Damnit muyuu stealing my thunder

i was simply venting about going to prot would be more helpful to the raid as having BS and RC whereas no one else in my group plays warrior thats all. I appologize if anyone here dissagreed
i really like the on demand heal more than a slow trickle and would for sure choose IV if there was no 10% on indom
sorry sir
Why apologize for a disagreement
ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ
tbh it was mostly you thinking about raid vs bull thinking about m+ from what I can see
sorry ive seen discords get rowdy for stuff like that i just didnt want to start anything
not like anyone is wrong here
Prot discord is chill
ok then.....brewmasters smoke all of you and i love the class. Tell me im wrong ๐
i fucking love impending victory and i always have
Ok, you're wrong.
Now what?
if i never met you guys, i'd likely still be using it
๐
lol

i love it, haha
No I'm Matt
i fucking hate playing monk tank it feels so bad to play
so let me put in our raid groups situation that we ran into last night
Monk feels bad in raid but it feels fun af in m+ tbh
Okay, i'm wrong. ๐ฆ
if you are good and dont stand in shit, you dont take hardly fuck all damage at all, but if you stand in things it nukes you over time

wed been wiping on heroic soulrender for a few weeks (Progression). This week we decided that we didnt want to bang our heads against a wall and invited a war for RC and BS. One shot it......WTF. So is it just having that one class (Only 1 war in the entire raid 11-man) Or is it just the added DPS and we are overthinking it
No
You make it sound almost like avoiding avoidable mechanics makes you take less damage.
๐
y're wrong with profile picture btw. where is this handsome guy
and i hated playing monk tank worse than any other tank i tried in BFA, i never had a DH and im stupid enough to fit the "retard DH" trope
i hated playing paladin tank, DK was OKAY, but it wasn't warrior
and i especially hated playing DK unholy
yeah no
Definitely not just add a warrior and win situation. If you've been progging on heroic soulrender for weeks then there are much deeper issues

@sick sentinel are you the true heify prot war?
rogue to war? Thats not entirely unheard of
rogue to TANK war maybe
ive always wanted to get better at rogue but sometimes i just cant handle the energy regen
I'm tryna go from war to war next tier
but from what ive seen i think its better

Same.
i like warriors "hit something and gain rage" idea
Imma go from whatever I want to play on release day to whatever I want to play on release day 
Useless class.
MT too hard.
i just wanna see griff charge/intercept to get rid of all of his constant rage
cant stop wont stop
I intercept as Fury in m+ on the tank
in cataclysm or wrath or panda, i made -2 int warrior herpedmyderp, human male warrior, dumbest fucker possible
hurr durr

can you heroic leap off the ledges in p2 sylv?
this is a dumb video where the name came from
like....leap onto the ledge after jumping off
Speaking of which I need to recraft The Wall tonight
but the whole deal with herpaderp was that he was never to have a green intelligence, cuz warriors don't use int
not sure I understand
you mean if you fall off, leap back on before you die?
you using wall on sylv?
wowhead guide says, that you should do shield block for heartseekers, but does it really help? I just use IP + SR + X (trinket, shield wall etc)
Also, I don't use reprisal since a lot of things are not blockable, right?
Does anyone know where i can find a good route for skipping the Robots in mechagon wing for DOS?
just pull extra in ardenweald
ok
yea thats not really helpful, but thanks
I mean you take your normal route
you click away the 3 robots and mark the extra % in ardenweald
nothing else changes
and if you dont have a route you already run
then i guess you can go and check out streamers who post their routes
altho most people simply dont because your route should be adaptable if you are at a level where you want to skip them in the first place
I was looking for a premade route i could import to MDT I could work off
Half the damage is physical so yes?
I thought it's magic only, so I guess I was wrong
Do you not shield block on last boss of NW either?
last boss of NW is physical
Cuz you should
It's a blockable physical spell
TLDR is the reflect sheet is your friend
Also you can deflect one hit of heartseeker
i personally never skip those robots, but im engineer so that allows me to do this
this is at the slime and robot room, sorry for my shitty ms paint drawings, i don't own or know how to use PS
its just that, not that its impossible, but fighting 2 or 3 robots, and then combining them with the slimes is ill advised because the slimes do a magic dot and the robots do a group dmg and they self heal for a fuck load
so, you lose CD's somewhere in the group along the way pulling like that and lose time cuz its 3 shit pulls (2 plus a boss) in a row
all top players routes based on their comps. so if it works for them doesnt mean it will for you. im pretty sure the best way is to create your own route based on your comp/skill level/key level
also are you sure you need to skip them? what keys range we are talking about
22+
well its still doable without skips but i understand your point at this level of keys
i can share you my route in 10 mins or so. maybe it will help
thanks
I put too many ??? On my shit my b for not being welcoming
Welcome to warrior
i honest to god don't know at which point you'd be wanting to use stealth pots to skip the robots that they'd be that much of a pain
hold W and 4head through whatever you can no?
The mechagon wing is the slowest part of dos
Specifically because it's drill followed by 3 solo pulls or a hard triple pull
i find fae wing is, but thats due to how i do ring then fae route
Ans u can just press the pot button ans walk past it
what about the frogger maze then though, you just have to yolo the maze as a team in stealth?
ideally you have an engineer but if not it's not really a maze
you just have to jump good
wouldn't engineering the button take you out of steatlh
im pretty sure this isn't right, but its how i imagine the robot skip would work
i don't remember the order you do things, i'm not the engineer in my squad, but it's always been pretty straightforward
There are plenty of routes that skip practically all of mechagon for DoS
i wouldn't worry too much about it in pugs, they're obviously not hard, it's just really low % for the amount of time they take
and you basically get that % back for free by pulling bigger in ardenweald
i tend to under pull rather than over pull now
had to return at start of 15 halls last night
How much dps do you guys pull in keys above 21-22 ?
And also.. how many IP casts overall ?
anywhere between 7-9k dps i reckon is a solid amount depending on dungeon
and IP casts varies just as much depending on comfortability, affixes and group comp
yes
no lol for me ive simply done the same thing in like the monk discord and shit hit the fan like.....WHY THE BLIP WOULD YOU ASK SOMES STUPID....blah blah blah. I apparently dont frame questions or statements 100% so sometimes it blows up the discord. Its my fault im not saying you werent welcoming
So if i'm doing lower than 7k i suck ?
I finish almost every dungeon with 200+ IP casts
But i dunno how is everyone else surviving damage without IP .. like, i use it cuz i need it
Yeah u suck :^)
In reality
You're probably pulling too small
Or playing overly defensive
Or are poorly geared
245 ilvl with Scale and Aegis as trinkets
there are alot of factors counting into m+, but i personally wouldnt be happy with less than 7k
Scale is stinky trash
Even with Old Warrior's Soul and Aegis did 5.5k in a 21 PF
But i changed recently to NF
Thought i was supposed to do more damage
well thats PF, the dungeon where you do the least dmg
But still.. not even close to 7k lel
Also.. is BSC really that good with Reprisal compared to Booming Voice ?
BSC is really good because of reprisal
the frequent access to the +50% empowered revenge is 1 of the reasons why BSC is so good with it
you can opt to run BV in low pull count dungeons like Pf and ToP i guess, for a tad bit more 1t-2t dps
Ok.. and also Mikanikos->Niya
Right ?
Wanted to test out NF cuz in my group generally kicks are the problem
But it seems my dps is lower
Oh, korayn for prot ?
I saw some other guys playing NF and they were playing Niya
That's why i asked.. sorry, didn't want to sound stupid
which is the slightly more defensive option
Niya is good
but if you wanna go for big overalls, Korayn is your friend
niya gets better with lower pullcounts and for boss dps, and is the "defensive" option for NF
Korayn gets better in multitarget situations
Ok, so Korayn, BSC and 1 offensive trinket
Old Warrior's Soul+Aegis should make it, right ?
a very solid trinket combo
should improve your overall dps a little bit, but the biggest contributor will be your gameplay
Ok, sir. Thank you very much! โค๏ธ
Yeah, well.. i'm still wondering if i use IP way too much
200 casts of IP is alot
I use IP a lot
If ur running ows
But only on Sylvanas
It's important to not let the buff drop
So moving quickly between pulls is paramount
So wait, i should use Revenge way more often
yes.
IP isnt gonna make you magically survive alot more
I think you'll find you're overestimating how much ip contributes to keeping you alive
^
If you consider ip a dump for am, and nothing else
You're playing closer to perfectly than by actively using it defensively
Yeah, tbh i think that too
I literally only press IP on Sylvanas
I'm not playing AM cuz i got way too lazy with HR
that would also do it
At the mid twenties I think that's fine but yeah
you happen to have logs?
Another knock on damage
the PF16 you did on dec13th you blocked "only" 84% hit
Yeah, in lower keys i tend to relax
And not take anything too serious
I mean tbh
Blocking hits should be second nature
Not something you need to think about
in the spires 21 you blocked 93% which is good enough
You're right, but i'm still adapting.. i've made so many changes throughout the last 2 months
but holy balls youre using IP alot
But i guess still a lot of IPs
Yeah..
you only used 28 spears
in a 38min dungeon

you dont waste alot of rage which is good
but your cpm is just low
wait how did you find the log
CPM ?
๐ฆ
casts per minute
Oh
everything i click on says no log found ๐ฆ
@strong forum do you also coach ?
na i dont coach
302 IP ๐
1 more question.. should i ever consider using execute ?
YES
Or just get it off my bars ?
this is why ill never be yellow this is toxic
execute is a HUGE dmg source
Only in ST, right ?
3 or less targets
execute is higher on 3 or less
or on prio targets
Ok..
So i actually stopped using execute
Guess that's one reason for my low dps too
yes y're right niya is more popular choice for m+ as nf for pushing. if you want outdps some pug dps players in your 15-20+ weekly run korayn is perfect
Thought that i'd better use revenge and get a shot on reseting SS
I mean the major take away from this conversation is less "you're playing wrong" and more "you're making active decisions to play more defensively
between trinkets, HR, ip usage, no execute etc
m8 somehow
and like yeah those decisionsw ill cut into your damage
you only did like 10% more total dmg in a 13min longer dungeon than me
in my spires that im comparing i did 5.7k log dps
and you did 4.7k log dps
*while active
sure mine is only a 16, but that shouldnt matter at all
youre just pumping boatloads of rage into IP instead of revenge
thats really the biggest thing
and youre underusing spear
and youre also underusing ravager
I try to 1st stack mobs together to spear them all
Ok.. so i gotta focus on lowering my IP casts while increasing my Revenge casts and also use my burst way more often
Larger packs
BSC+AM
And should be fine
I'm way more comfortable with HR
biggest things are
use execute more
use spear more
use ravager more
also use SW and LS a bit more
4/5 uses each

it was my problem back in bfa too. ip is just bad( mediocre at best)
MAB if you will
my dmg breakdown
yours
you can already see, your spear is much lower, and your Execute is Nonexistant
or on prio targets
your rage gen is fine, but yeah, spear - ravager and execute more
and you should see a big increase in your dps
So, should i stick with Mikanikos or try with Niya/Korayn ?
ATM i'm trying to push 23's
Mika is fine
Been playing Mikanikos till last night
Nome you are failing your mission right now...shoot them wtf
๐ซ
It blows my mind when I ask a prot warrior to solo soak Heroic Guardia and they have no idea how to do it...
mika is more damage so..
I kinda like AA tbh even tho Spear is way better and it syncs with Ravager more often
The problem in our groups.. are always the casts
you should maybe realign your expectations of what people who play this game are like lol
And i get smacked cuz everyone fucks up their interrupts
ah i see ye aa is good for extra cc. got your point
idk try to use both niya and korayn and make your choice. but as i said i cant see ppl pushing in korayn
You'd think people wouldn't be awful in late heroic raiding. But then again I carried my guild all the way to heroic sylvanas with me being the fourth highest DPS despite being a Prot Warrior
i don't think not knowing the unintended strategy should count as "awful"
sounds like you'd be happier if you found a guild you were on the same wavelength as
what a legend
Not rly they were just bleh
I put everything. And the intended strat is to have the tanks either swap solo soak or have a tank solo all of them? I've never done it the 2 group way before our of 75 full clears.
I mean I don't know how to do it
But I also haven't done guardian in like months

they definitely intended for the raid to split and take the soaks, that's what soaks are meant to be
just tuned low so it's possible to solo
Solo tank strats are cool
im pretty sure he meant 1 tank buster
But idc about it 99% of the time I just want to get in and get out
Solo tanking stuff like first boss of EP made sense
You don't really gain anything from guardian
yeah it's cool that it's possible, just don't like the sneering energy of "look at these idiots who don't do this strat"
ye i agree
You just don't gain anything from doing it
Oh cool you solo soaked one tank buster
In heroic

i mean ppl play this strat its easy i think its all about guild etc but its not mandatory at all
Sure I just don't see the benefit, but I see plenty of downsides
Solo tanking all the combos though now you're talking a legit benefit because that's more group dps
I'll echo this
Because the chance of wiping is 10x higher because people often overlap and/or cannot stack into 2 groups well. One big group allow for much larger failure control. Having done full clears five the six times a week since the end of July has shown this to me
You uhh
You put marks on the floor
And people stand on them
If they die like that they're gonna find other ways of dying lmao
Literally never see wipes on guardian as a dps unless tanks fuck their taunts
Pugging full clears 5x a week sounds aids
I used to (quit 3 weeks ago) raid lead for lfg pug communities, I would run 1-2 runs per community per week. Pugs need their hands held. I have probably seen almost as many wipes on Guardian doing the group strat as I have on heroic Sylvannas. Which is why I put a hard stop to that in early September
3 lfg pug communities*
Now that isn't fair because I only entertained the two group strat for 8 weeks whereas I have been killing her up to six times a week for 4 months now?
i cant believe you can wipe on guardian 2 grps strat as many times as on Sylv
but you can wipe even more times on roh kalo
I would often see 2-3 wipes until I changed the strat.
Oh I skip fate lol
I've done heroic syl so much that it's rare we wipe more than once.
yall so elitist jeez
heroic elitism :chortle:
:chortle:
also works on mythic
Also works on normal
yes but then u fuck up energy so its a wipe
smh nome
I'm tryin to pump like @runic sparrow
your mum fucks up energy


honestly sucha vibe
man
I just did sylv on my dh alt
it's so much easier holy fk
Turn off brain and take 0 dmg 
Soakin child support
I got bored and started tanking (just a +15s) and I must say it was the one of the best decisions I made this season. Im having a blast

tank equal alpha
Warrior is a confirmed blue-parser
err how is the scale colored
low = green purple = top? (taking the Wn8 system from world of tanks (TL;DR it's just elo, 0-4500 scale))
in world of tanks which i was fairly active, its like this
i was a tank whore in battlefield games and i named my wow character "tankian"
produces literal IRL fireball spell without any nerfs
but imma blow your fuckin mind right now
wn8, is just the same fuckin thing as logs, and then it tallies up your recents, so, lets say you have a gun that does uhh, 400-440 dmg (roughly) and it takes, 7.4 seconds to reload, well it can then fire X times per match, and there for it does this much Damage Per Minute, and thats how it gets the io score, rating, elo whatever you want to call it
all games that use a match making system, this is how they all pair you up, so having a bunch of 99 parses is same thing as being 3700 wn8
what a racism . ill report this game
racism?
ye black is lowest bracket!!!
im such a retard
got new dom socket slot
forgot to take out the old one
played guardian without blood set

still gold parsed right? ๐
ho ho ho btw
totally 
Raid tanking is ass
Its 9 bosses of nothing followed by one boss of everything's on you
true
And by pull 30 you're still waiting for your dps to get their shit together for that one
