I was hyped for seismic + reprisal combo all of 9.0.5 and 9.1 until they announced only cov leggo + 1 sl. regular leggo.

Instead we get massively time gated socket from vault.

is there any good raid trinkets for us?

so replace scale

proven patio

its kinda meh true but also kinda nice

frosty holly
#

Dude I didn't even get contract nor did i get darkmoon fair buff. I could be way further into the rep xD

#

Also not missing WQ aint really impressive? Only 3 a day

#

combined time doing them all is what 15 min max

proven patio
#

Not everyone can log in every single day and do wq

jagged pier
#

doing wqs everyday u should still be honoured

#

farming rares and chest for rep is where u get extra

frosty holly
#

No? chests gives no rep

jagged pier
#

they have a chance to drop rep items

#

ive got a few

#

and ive done every quest every day

#

and im only 8k into honoured

frosty holly
#

Doing every single available rare every day is like 290 rep max. That is if you do the 3 dunes ones that are up very sporadically

#

There are 2-3 75 rep items. One time things Favour of the first ones or something like that.

proven patio
#

So you are exalted now after spending hours each day in zm to farm for exalted without even being able to get unity legendary before people who just did the wqs and the weekly?

frosty holly
#

I'm not exalted?

#

I said im 2k into it aka 2 out of 21

proven patio
#

Ah. Mb then.

jagged pier
#

i mean its sort of pointless grinding the rep

frosty holly
#

Indeed. My point wasn't about that tho

#

It was that Vault in the end is more timegated then rep would be

jagged pier
#

doing the wqs literally give u unity on any slot at the same unity belt anyways

jagged pier
#

i mean not really

#

soon enough ill not be getting upgrades in it

#

tbh i didnt have upgrades in it last week

#

would have taken a socket item and held it for later

free augment rune pog

jagged pier

i have over 500 from misson table

frosty holly

So the first vault with 278 you literally had no upgrade at all? Mine wasn't great but still like 20 dps

jagged pier
#

not really no

#

nothing useless

#

i got a 278 ring with less haste on it than my other rings

#

at least i can trade rings now

Can't not execute fast enough

Icy Veins / WoWhead guides are a starting point to understanding the class.
Other than that the best bet would be to provide us some logs.

More haste means more executes during LS window

polar nimbus
#

I'm getting slapped around in 15s I have played with 27 hast/vers 20 I also ran 23 hast / vers 27

strong forum

Means more executes back to back

strong forum
#

Stats don't matter, correct play matters muuuuuuuuuch more

ionic fern
#

But without logs we can't really give you any adequate feedback.
Generic feedback that we can provide...
More often than not it's usually a mix of:
-Low SB up-time
-A lot of wasted rage
-Prioritising IP over SB
-Not pressing your rotational buttons enough so you have less rage to go around and use
-Not using your defensive CD's

strong forum

And that doesn't just mean your own play, your entire party play matters

If you play poorly no amount of obtainable vers is gonna help you

Ok

mortal whale

I usually have around 80% uptime there

Just becauee you have SB up doesn't mean you're using it effectively

mortal whale
#

You tell me im doing something wrong :p

jagged pier
#

u can have 80% uptime and 40% blocked hits

strong forum
#

And you telling me you have 80% raw SB uptime means you're 100% playing HR

Im still pretty new to prot. I was told sb uptime was prio 1 but you're telling me thats not the case?

jagged pier

tbh its very ez to have like 100% uptime with HR imo

You can get well over 80% blocked hits with reprisal alone

It's not wrong to play HR, but not needed if you play well

Unless you're doing like ultra keys

Give me your parameters :p

(Im talking exclusivly about m+ btw)

strong forum
#

Yes

ionic fern
#

I mean..i also sometimes actively don't use SB cause:
1)Incoming damage is irrelevant
2)I got SW up
3)DS/IP is enough to prevent any serious damage
4)I got a healer external and it covers the damage intake

Or the fifth and the most important one:
I'm too busy spamming Revenge.

You can do up to 25s (if not more) without having to minmax every ability and cd

mortal whale

I tanked a 15 spires at 248 ilvlish and i did feel very squishy without sb :D

polar nimbus
ionic fern
#

It doesn't matter what content.
Still comes down to knowledge.
Don't get us wrong - keeping SB up and not putting unneccessary pressure on your healer is still your top priority. There are just a lot of nuances if you want to deep-dive into it.

strong forum
#

15 at 248 should be fine?

mortal whale

Ye i guess

#

Yenitnwas fine

But i alsondid keep uo sb :D

#

There's a difference

Between not keeping up SB

#

And you squeezing 1 or 2 globals of not using SB

To cover a better spread of attacks

Gotta be efficient about it

mortal whale
#

What kind of dps are you doing in a 15 out of interest (i know itd impacted by various things, but give me a mediam :D)

strong forum
#

Reprisal in itself allows you to get close to 90% blocked hits

#

HR is just another 10% ontop

Since im undergeard my highest dps in spires was only like 7ish K

Just looking at the pins for legendary info. By "craft second legendary to waist, then helm later when you have 4 piece" is that meaning, craft a 291 version waist, or just stick with the "welfare" version waist you will get for free when its unlocked?

strong forum
#

Depends on your pockets

forest fern
#

ahkay that's what I figured, thanks

#

if I was to temp craft a 291, would you still think belt, or would another slot feel a better option

strong forum
#

The unity legendary you get from the quest you can't upgrade anyway. So it's either belt for you until you have 4p on every slot but helm

#

Or just sticking to belt

forest fern
#

I guess what I meant was, from a stat budget setting, would it be better on the other spare slots, bracer, back, rings etc than remaining on a belt in that interim while waiting for 4 piece etc

strong forum
#

Na helmet is defo biggest stat budget from the available pieces

#

There are good rings from raid and m+

forest fern
#

right but isnt' the helmet not a craftable option until 4 piece, as you don't want it in a potential "clash" slot until you achieve that goal. I'm talking in the meantime until that time arrives etc

Uuuuhm.

Belt has a solid stat budget until then

Unless you can easily get the 278 shield from raid

If you don't have easy access, pick shield

Quick question lads. I can get 278 wrists with a socket, or the Normal Lords of Dread Tier shoulders (which would give me 2 piece)

i doubt its actually gunna be that pumper

iqd probs gunna do more

one on the pull and one in execute

ionic nimbus
#

but 1.100-1320 vers is heavy .. but CD is too long

#

maybe in some kind of MDI setup with huge pulls, maybe its worth trying ... but you have to play alot around a 5min CD ...

chrome falcon
#

oh nah it seems like donkey balls in m+

#

with the state of tank trinkets these days i'll probably still be using aegis in 10.0

urban portal

first sigil is good for damage

tho it better be

with banner+avatar+first sigil you are going to top meter during execute in raids

#

prot war execute already hits harder than arms execute

chrome falcon
#

yes sir

#

anduin, lords of dread and jailer are all going to have long execute phases that shouldn't hit the tank too hard (lords probably a bit worse)

#

so we can just rip fat executes it's going to be great

jagged pier
#

XD no

#

anduin is fine

#

lord of dread truck at the end

#

and jailer just been buffed through the roof

mighty cairn
#

lords and rygelon both have amping dmg right

#

or like ambient magic raidwide

jagged pier
#

no ry just hurts the entire time

chrome falcon
#

ry fucking blasts the tank

#

but unless i'm reading it wrong, jailer doesn't even have a tank mechanic in p3?

#

other than the chains which you just break

#

and since it's a giant physical dot, that's a job for my brewmaster, not for me

Is Wall legendary ok to run in M+

jagged pier

not really no

blazing condor

It wont stop you from doing keys and tanking but it will make it way harder

#

Not worth it unless youre doing way low keys but then it doesnt even matter

ionic nimbus

the idea is the lower key you do the more damage you run

So it's just straight up lose-lose to play Wall :d

Hi all. Quick question. for GV are we prioritizing highest Ilvl m+ items over lower ilvl tier? I have a 252 tier piece and much higher choices 270's ilvl to choose from for m+. thanks

chrome falcon
#

tier >>>>>>>>>>>> ilvl

west walrus
#

That makes Sense

chrome falcon
#

actually i probably need to add more > to that

#

but if you're going to be killing bosses that could drop that tier tonight

#

you can wait and see if you get it as a drop

dapper swift

Ok should we be equipping lower ilvl tier over higher ilvl gear if we alread yhave it on?

chrome falcon

tier >>>>>>>>> ilvl

im still working on normal in the raid but crushing m+ rn

if one of your buckets get tier shoulders from vault, it can potentially trade tier shoulders to someone elses' main

Just had a question about prot warrior tanks. Is the t5 4-piece set bonus with the haste bonus proc really good for threat or is there a better option thats good to get? I will probably never have arena rating to get the good gear, so weighing my options...

#

playing in classic TBC obviously

ionic nimbus
gentle tulip
#

i know that haste bonus is just a proc or chance when getting hit, which turns people away usually on that kinda proc chance, but i still think it will be better than wearing pvp gear as a prot warrior tank

mellow bridge
#

i dont think too many people in here play classic

#

there's a different warrior discord for it, probably better to ask in there

if you die from it, that means the barrier is popping too fast

i’ve been prot since lvl 36 in stranglethorn vale back in 04. i’ve leveled up in def stance and played all exp until now not caring about meta. leveling up in defensive stance was really stupid, but sticking to prot is my one and only. its prot warrior or no wow at all for me

Honestly idk how people can’t hold aggro as a blood dk

I was doing some 13s as a 239 blood boi

And wasn’t losing aggro to a 260 fury warrior

mighty valley
#

i'm not a blood expert but they're less bursty than some i guess

#

so if dps has absolutely no restraint they might struggle to get back on top

urban portal

without slapping hands its quite hard

if you dont have bone shield up from previous pull you gotta build that first

cuz an actual dmg dealing fury can rip off of any tank

You have swarming mist and bonestorm for every pack

The secret to pulling treat off of a blood dk is exploit thier slow movement speed. As fury you mount up run infront of them leap to the next pack (make sure to pop your potion). Burst and profit!
