Quick question guys i'm a bit confused please
If having anger management make your avatar CD at ~45s instead of 1:30
Knowing that Avatar last 20 seconds.
Does it means that you spend 25sec without avatar approximately or did the maths around avatar CD occured AFTER counting avatar usage meaning it's 45s CD knowing that you use it on CD ?

I'm not sure if the question make sense not a native english speaker sry

strong forum
#

Actual 45sec CD

#

Lemme rethink real quick I got a fumble myself

cinder dirge
#

^^' sry idk if the question is written properly haha šŸ˜„

strong forum
#

Na it's perfectly understandable

#

I just never thought about it that way

cinder dirge
#

cus if that's the case it means on theory we have a downtime of 25sc without 10% DR with 4pieces that's what i wanna know

tropic linden
#

Yeah, that's the idea

strong forum
#

Actual 45sec CD

tropic linden
#

If u have no downtime in the fight u can have almost 50% uptime of avatar

#

with 4pc

strong forum
#

You can have over 60% uptime on Avatar

cinder dirge
#

oh ok that's great

strong forum
#

60-70% avatar uptime as 4p2L necro

#

If you're hard gaming

#

BTW that screenshot is from early 9.1

#

So you can get avatar alot quicker

#

Down to like a 30sec CD

jagged pier
strong forum
#

Ya in that log I have 47% avatar uptime

#

And it's like I said from early 9.1

#

As kyrian

cinder dirge
#

Adding the tazavesh trinket with Avatar 10%DR has to be a must then. I saw someone with 50% uptime on the 10% DR Taza trinket on a +18 mist. If they add eachother properly I guess.

strong forum
#

Not a must

#

But it's the 2nd best defensive trinket in the game

#

It won't deal good dmg until very very high keys

or rygelon hc did like 800 dps there for me

Cant wait to have 2pc and infinite rage

hows prot feeling with 2 piece and 4 piece?

prot dmg is always good, im more concerned about getting hit hard

To quote late

tropic linden
#

SS with outburst generate 80 rage?

strong forum
#

Crowbar you'll have 100% uptime on IP and generate 1k rage per minute

#

Your survivability will quite literally skyrocket

#

Not as much as bear cuz fuck bear

#

But it'll be really good

gentle finch
#

Damage for prot is pretty good until you look at the bears

strong forum
#

Damage for everyone is pretty good until you look at bear

#

They're quite literally twice as strong as anything else in the game

#

Even the dps

gentle finch
#

Did you see the patch/ptr notes for prot 9.2.5?

strong forum
#

There are no class changes

#

For 9.2.5

gentle finch
#

What was that 17% dmg thing?

strong forum
#

That's wrong

#

It's mmoc comparing 9.2.5 values to 9.2 values

gentle finch
#

šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

#

Oh

strong forum
#

Not counting in the hotfix we got on heroic week

#

Those values are already active

It's just poor reporting on mmoc's end

First patch changes are almost always just hotfixes

I see a many prot warriors with haste mastery on the second leggo.
Is that now the way to go or personal preference?
My first thought would have been "haste versa" on both leggos.

strong forum
#

Unity leggo comes with haste mastery

#

The one you get from the story

#

That would be my guess

jagged pier
#

haste mastery

strong forum
#

So it's not them choosing to put mastery on it

#

It just comes like that

Quick oxx + loquacious

cold zealot

okay ty šŸ™‚

strong forum
#

Technically the both socketed rings are best, but you ain't catching me personally wearing a non haste ring

waxen orbit
#

The haste on that loquacious ring, holy fuck

strong forum
#

Ya that's over 8% haste on 1 ring

#

Including enchant

waxen orbit
#

And socket eventually

strong forum
#

Ya

waxen orbit
#

Depending on how dogshit your vaults are

cold zealot
#

haste is just too good to pass up, the haste vers at 272 is tempting though just because it makes me beefy and im over 30 anyway which feels good enough for me

strong forum
#

"beefy"

cold zealot
#

yeah^^

strong forum
#

Wtf do you think 150 vers is

#

That's 2.5% DR

#

That's not alot

waxen orbit
#

Vers only really begins to matter once you push north of +24

#

Everything below that is skill

strong forum
#

Actually it's only 2% DR

#

And thats not gonna play a role for wayyy to long to worry about

#

Like way high keys

#

Defo above 24s

#

I'm thinking like 28s

cold zealot
#

sure but having more leeway to missplays sure feels good at least in my mind

strong forum
#

2% ain't gonna help you with missplay

#

Or any amount of reachable vers

cold zealot
#

surr the one pice isnt but haven ultiple hate vers pieces does stack up

strong forum
#

Even with 20% vers you're gonna get 10% DR, so a 50k bolt will still hit for 45k

waxen orbit
strong forum
#

Aka, you still dead if 2 bolts go off

#

No matter if 0 or 20% vers

WHEN WE DOIN A FULL NA PROT WARR RAID???

Full warrior raids haven't been done since nyalotha

Hmu i am down for a full prot warr raid

#

All the charges and intervenes, its gonna be fkn hilarious

waxen orbit
#

Reminds me of an AOTC pug prog run I did back in Nath

#

End of season to make sure people got it

#

And invited like

#

15 warriors

#

Watching like 7 Venthyr warriors leap over to kill adds and then port back in unison

#

Watching all 15 charge the boss on pull and on phase 3 in unison

#

Like watching a wild herd of wildebeest in the Sahara

#

It was beautiful

hardy ridge
#

haha amazing

#

Do banners stack btw?

waxen orbit
#

P sure they do

#

8,000 mastery on pull (hypothetically speaking)

#

That is, if all 20 Banners target one individual, and if it’s allowed to stack 20x

hollow dove
waxen orbit
#

True

#

Tbh I like that we’re the only tank that can’t really self-heal (aside from Indom) because it contributes to class identity and niches

#

But maybe that’s just my RPG nerd talking

hardy ridge
#

Or 1 of the 3 closest i should say

waxen orbit
#

Good question

#

Someone get Rextroy

urban portal
#

Just takes a lot of coordination

#

It's like council of blood on crack

#

Every 2 minutes everyone gets in position

hardy ridge
#

Yes but if you add too many people at a certain point the distance between the ppl on the circumference will be smaller than the radius

urban portal
#

as long as you are one of 3 it should be fine

#

or just everyone stack on 1 point

#

and yolo

hardy ridge
#

True so the radius would have to be smaller than the distance between a person and its 2nd neighbor on the circumference

#

If it isnt then the actual person in the center would be getting 0 banners other than his own

urban portal
#

yeah

#

now that i think about it

#

its probably impossible

#

unless someones real good at geometry

plucky hearth
#

I know pvp.. but 😳

#

Curious why I'm not seeing spear dmg for crit bonus, is he Necro?

jagged pier
#

no we have a pvp talent that increases crit chance

plucky hearth
#

Em is crit dmg not chance

jagged pier
#

spear also only increases crit damage doesnt give crit chance

shell shale
#

If im playing necro prot in keys what soulbind should i be?

jagged pier
#

u shouldnt

plucky hearth
#

It's still a "crit bonus" for a one shot build tho

jagged pier
#

if u are kevin

#

doesnt matter if necro gives u 100k SS with a very high chance to crit with gear and pvp talent

urban portal
#

necro is immediate also

#

em gives them time to wall

#

unless they track necro

#

ty was just memeing because group didnt have a necro for plauge fall

I seen one of the top prot warriors on raider io played only night fae

It's perfectly viable

They're pretty much interchangeable

jagged pier

cause NF pumps with double leggo now

urban portal
#

didnt erga say its bugged

jagged pier
#

espeically in high keys where trash takes ages to die

strong forum
#

Kyrian just has teh added benefit of more frequent access to the button

and its getting less ticks than intended

strong forum

Yeah NF leggo is indeed bugged

#

From the last time I heard

jagged pier

it seems to be ticking slower

why can’t prot ever be bugged in a good way

Yeah so

According to my maff

#

I was wrong

mighty cairn
#

isn’t the cc part of aftershock inconsistent too

#

bc it’s target capped and can’t guarantee you’re cc’ing casters in a big pull right

#

or does it prio mobs that can be cc

strong forum
#

Ye

#

It's rng if you hit the correct targets

#

If you pull more than 5

mighty cairn

cool so u could be blasting groundskeepers

instead of wicked bolt guys

Yeup

That's my understanding

Unless the CC isn't tied to the targets you hit

I've also never been NF, just talking out of my ass here

mighty cairn
#

what if 4 set made IP infinitely stackable

#

that doesn’t even sound op tbh

strong forum

Doesn't change alot

The 50% absorb is what makes it meh

It needs to stop more dmg for IP to be good

the first casts should be sync'd just SR

@chilly brook i agree for pushing boundaries like that and i will when i will feel safe that i play the class correctly so i can survive some mistakes from groups(not bolts ofc these are death penalty)

Thanks for the answers guyz

i know i mean generally. Bolts are death iff not handled i sure know that

even with wall if you eat two you're basically done

As little as possible

yes ofc

Ideally sub 100

5% rage is alot, I'd say like 1% rage is aight ish

avg dps is also a group effort, the big pumpers in here are usually playing with really strong teams

if one gets cleaved and i lose aggro, taunt

Are boots and belt still the best slots for legendaries ? I'm 99% sure but I want to confirm before I craft the R7 Unity Belt šŸ˜’

sweet summit
#

belt is a great spot for unity

#

only slot that's better is helmet once you get 4 set in the other tier slots okayge

indigo bramble
#

Why the head? I thought the least good set piece was the gloves

sweet summit
#

big stat budget + socket slot

indigo bramble
#

Oh, right

#

silly me

sweet summit
#

altho belt is still usable later, since the jailer drops high ilvl legs

#

can't really go wrong with belt, unless you plan on raiding as arms

Ain’t IQD/First Sigil the new replacement for Phial?

For the giga execute banner tomfuckery?

strong forum

yes

but according to sim its only a a small difference

waxen orbit

Word

#

Probably more reliable to play Phial

#

IQD giving mana, healing someone, or just sending out a 40k bolt

distant crystal
#

you can prevent the bolt

#

if it gives mana you shoulda let the healer drink tbh

I actually purposefully used IQD heal to save someone in SD yesterday tho lol

what's your uptime on shieldblock with anger management talent in mythic + dungeon ? I'm sitting around 70 to 75% but not sure if it's good enough. Taking into account the amount of kiting you have to do etc

urban portal

look at %blocked

#

doesnt matter if your block is up if you arent blocking anything

cinder dirge
#

oh might be a big noob, u can find that on details ?

craggy pilot
#

75 sounds low tho

mighty valley

nah, you gotta log to get useful defensive info

cinder dirge

i was around 90 with heavy repercussion but since i swapped it dropped hardcore to 75 ye.
Is their anyway i can find %block on detail ?

Is there ever a reason to use whirlwind over revenge?

No unless you’re running MBG (Merciless Bonegrinder) and you have the buff after Ravager expires

how much "worse" is the wall compared to reprisal? main fury who's expecting to get pushed into edit: raid tank tonight, see reprisal as first suggested but figuring out where to weave in charge/intervenes seems difficult while being unfamiliar with the spec in general

strong forum
#

its easier to play but in m+ its ALOT weaker, in raid its more usable

#

but its less rage and less block uptime than reprisal

vestal mica
#

sorry, forgot to specify raid

strong forum
#

i also mentioned raid

vestal mica
#

yeah, just made me think i should add it although exactly why i'm still unsure lol

dawn canyon
#

Pressing intervene on cooldown for starters should be possible okayge

strong forum
#

its easier to use, if youre unsure you can figure out how to play reprisal in raid its better to use wall

vestal mica
#

guess my next question would be on intervene? would that mainly just be used on cd?

#

on other tank?

strong forum
#

just on CD

#

on NOT the other tank

#

any melee will do

#

you can charge during long animations of bosses, before you taunt and take over from your cotank

#

can charge mobs on the side

dawn canyon
#

Talking skolex real quick i cant run out and charge there i assume?

jagged pier
#

u can

distant crystal
#

depends how pants-on-head your melee are

strong forum
#

skolex has 10y melee

#

charge is 8

vestal mica
#

skolex sounds like real risky for both charge and intervene

distant crystal
#

as long as you stay the closest char to other tank :p

jagged pier
#

u can charge during retch

vestal mica
#

i don't trust melee enough

u can charge in line with your cotank

lots of cleave in the raid

would definitely take ashen, it's marginal but show of force is literally just nothing

in an organised group you can even tell your dps to stop STing stuff that's low so you can whore executes

i know it's a tough choice to do but dropping inspiring presence for anima sphere isn't a bad thing overall in keys tbh

maiden ravine

I'm torn between necrolord and honestly fae. Necrolord is so spammy

cinder dirge

You'll never die as necrolord in keys. But your dmg will drop in order to increase others that's for sure

chrome falcon
#

you're probably correct veve

#

but i dunno i just like the giga rally

#

at this point it's a backup LS on the GCD that saves you when your drongo dps miss kicks or stand in shit

#

and yeah kyle, i was necrolord all of 9.1 but i'm enjoying kyrian in keys too. necrolord is a more fun playstyle without a doubt but doing 2-3k more on the overall is nice

cinder dirge
#

Fully agreed, if I was any other covenant. But fleshcraft is a 20% DR, 20% Max HP shield and HP regeneration overtime thanks to marileth with a 120 mastery bonus if not more.
It could be worth dropping the inspired presence and replace the rally for that one.
Trickiest sh*t is when urrh is about to slam your face and stun you while you channel it. Happened a couple of times that's super annoying !

but the knockdown of fae

Co-tank get 1 most of time too

fairly sure bsc is slightly more dam but BV gives more rage which translates into other stuff

For those extra free IPs and quicker shield wall resets

Also more avatars in a longer fight

the only problem I have is that BV forces you to cast it on cd

and if you dont cast voice on cd it kinda lowers the value

tawdry dirge

I think bsc and bv are pretty close in keys dmg wise

Atleast for me

But on some weeks its nice to have the rage on a button

And if u play with uhr relic i think BV can be more dmg

Do u got 4p?

Otherwise you dont run bv in keys
