meager locust
#

4p prot feels good so much rage

uncut notch
#

I cant wait to run AM again

meager locust
#

Apm is same if not worse than fury war sometimes

patent osprey
#

inspiring is like the worst prot war affix though

meager locust
#

The vangaurd buff is noticeable. I took 5k damage overall on 20 pf

patent osprey
#

as a tank who can't take magic bolts to the face

patent osprey
#

I didn't get 4 set in my vault and I just logged off

#

XD

meager locust
#

So much overdumping rage during ravager/avatar

#

Like u spam that ip sometimes but tthat means more outburst which means MORE IP!

patent osprey
#

dungeons like TOP though, probably feels a little scarier on tyrannical bosses because u dont have as much time of SB

#

without HR

meager locust
#

I feel top wasnt too bad

#

Lich boss is scary if dispells isnt handled

patent osprey
#

at a high enough key level, not having infinite SB will feel worse

meager locust
#

Gorechop does chop

uncut notch
patent osprey
#

any warrior funnelers want to give me tier helm/chest

#

ty

meager locust
#

20 sec spell reflect means u can reflect all the grim harvest

#

And first boss knockback off pf

patent osprey
meager locust
#

Grim sctrhe*?

uncut notch
#

reaping scythe

meager locust
#

Youre right

patent osprey
#

giggity

meager locust
#

Streets is the hardest key rn

#

In high levels

#

Those adds are insanely strong

patent osprey
#

depends on the tank

#

its harder cause u need a mix of physical and magic mitigation

lofty widget
#

streets feels fine with a good group

patent osprey
#

I was doing it on a 23/24 i think

#

and the heavy batons

#

were pain

#

hyperlight bolts were pain

lime urchin
#

Life is pain

chrome falcon
#

heavy baton is fucking stupid

#

that thing hits for 60k on 21 and that's just the magic portion that i reflected

patent osprey
#

Heavy baton is purgable

#

Make sure to yell at your mages/shamans

#

and dhs

#

XD

chrome falcon
#

everyone in my guild plays fuckin female belf anyway

patent osprey
#

my mage friend asked, can you just tank it, i dont want to use 2 globals

#

DPS aren't people

meager locust
#

They need to reduce rebuffing that baton

distant crystal
#

if it slaps that hard

#

can the mage just spell steal it and melee stuff

meager locust
#

To like once every ten seconds

cinder dirge
#

yo

#

does anyone know if urh heals you even if you got necrotic stack ?

uncut notch
#

noticed random stack clearances without me popping phial

cinder dirge
#

i'm lucky enough to be dwarf and cleanse myself with racial so i don't need phial. But it might be a real pain if urh doesn't heal you when you have smth like 30 stack πŸ˜„

chrome falcon
#

you guys think ravager or ITF for a 22 tyrannical key

#

(streets)

uncut notch
chrome falcon
#

yeah idk i guess

#

i just want more ST damage but

meager locust
#

Ravager does give more st if u have 4p

#

More rage means more outburst means more fat shieldslams

chrome falcon
#

more haste means more rage too

meager locust
#

But ravager also gives way more aoe dam might cut a few seconds than itf

scenic mural
#

If we are talking about singke target like he mentioned itf is better

meager locust
#

U dont gain much st damage from itf i think compared do dps class but it might means more spammable spells during urh windows

scenic mural
#

You dont gain much ST from ravager either, id much rather have 10% more haste soaming shield slams etc. ravager is the play in m+ mainly because it is an easy aggro builder that gives you a lot of rage directly on pull.

strong forum
#

thing is in m+ youll hardly ever have 5 stacks of ITF on bosses

#

sooo, yeh

urban portal
#

Or are ranged too far to count

mighty cairn
#

it does count allies

#

ranged will usually be too far to count tho

steel mist
#

anyone feeling the buff for the prot warrior? like in sturdiness level

lofty widget
#

yes

#

might just be because of tyr

steel mist
#

i only have one piece

#

sadge lyfe

lofty widget
#

tyranical i mean

steel mist
#

oh

#

ok

mighty cairn
#

hard to compare this wk to last wk

steel mist
#

holy shit i need to try it in raid today and dungeons when i get back home

mighty cairn
#

fort to tyrannical and necrotic means you have to kite anyways

steel mist
#

oh shit

#

its necrotic

craggy pilot
#

damn was just hoping the triple tier set LFR wing was open today... then i realized its next week copium

#

fml

steel mist
#

ugggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

lofty widget
#

necrotic is pretty much a non issue

steel mist
#

i hate kiting as when my group cant stun the add that empowers the dogs in halls

lofty widget
#

5 sec duration, thats like a shockwave and taking 2 steps back

vernal vale
#

I'm starting to play necro and am finding using fleshcraft at anytime other than before pull to be awkward. Can we block when casting it? It would be really handy when kicks are not happening in dungeons for example.

#

Dps are bad at that.

lime urchin
#

You don’t block but you do dodge and parry methinks.

lofty widget
#

you can block/parry/dodge etc while channeling yes

lime urchin
#

I stand corrected, yet again

lofty widget
#

was changed in 9.0.5

distant crystal
#

now just add that behavior to urns in DoS and lanterns in SD 🀞

steel mist
#

i find fleshcraft to be very handy in raids

distant crystal
#

also on Gorchop you can fleshcraft and let the curtains pass over you

steel mist
#

when i was tanking malganis and kintessa , mid fight pop that shit

distant crystal
#

if you have that soulbind that makes you immune to cc

steel mist
#

wait is that a thing?

#

which soulbind?

lofty widget
#

marileth

distant crystal
#

^

steel mist
#

ohhhhh

#

that one

#

ok

vernal vale
#

Oh, sweet. I'll definitely be working on finding more use for fleshcraft then.

steel mist
#

thats very nice

distant crystal
#

i only found out cause I got hit by that on my bear and nothing happened

lofty widget
#

it's also nice to just channel as a DR when dps dont feel like kicking

distant crystal
#

cause sleeper legendary + incarn does same thing

vernal vale
#

Ultimate Form is basically always taken anyways do that's gonna be a sweet bonus.

shell shale
#

You can bladestorm through the walls on gorchop too

vernal vale
#

DPS never want to kick because damage meters are all important

shell shale
#

Not saying prot should ever have that

urban portal
#

For something called ultimate form

#

It's quite underwhelming

vernal vale
#

^

urban portal
#

Not saying it's bad or anything

shell shale
#

You can rally and last stand fleshcraft before a key starts

#

Massive shield going into first pull

#

And they all get reset

steel mist
#

this is quite good to know

#

those first pulls are quite try when you group up 3 packs

#

but then again

#

dps go brrr and get aggro from me when i pick them up

#

and my healer doesnt know how to heal a prot warrior since he got used to monks

shell shale
#

I found for most part this season I don't really need healing unless i pull like 3 packs and just stand there with 50 stacks of necrotic

lofty widget
#

then you need it but cant have it

shell shale
#

Necrotic feels like a non affix now tbh

lofty widget
#

yeah it does

#

not like it ever was an issue for us

latent pier
#

The spell reflect cdr thing is actually amazing.

#

It's usually up when I need it now.

shell shale
#

Last boss in top is so insane

#

I did 16k DPS to last boss in a 19 key this week

vernal vale
#

Loving spell reflect up more often.

shell shale
#

With spell reflect on every scythe

#

Being huge dmg

vernal vale
#

Hahaha that sounds stupid fun.

shell shale
#

Last boss literally just does 0 dmg to prot warriors now

lime urchin
shell shale
#

Yeah

lime urchin
#

And they reset?

shell shale
#

Yup

lime urchin
#

I see, interesting

shell shale
#

And fleshcraft resets too

#

But you keep the buffed shield

latent pier
#

Wow

lime urchin
#

Who plays necrolord jn keys anyway!

latent pier
#

I never thought of that

shell shale
#

I have been

#

It's nice

lime urchin
#

But mah spear goes brrrrrrrrr

latent pier
#

I haven't been necro since 9.0 so I forgot about that.

lofty widget
#

execute also goes BRRR on bosses

#

doing 10-11k ST on the regular now

shell shale
#

I do about 11k overall as Necro prot

latent pier
#

Praying for 2pc

shell shale
#

Wait until you get 4pc Necro prot

latent pier
#

I waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaant it

shell shale
#

I just got it yesterday

#

All 4 of my tier came from vault

latent pier
#

Wait

#

Fuck you

#

Continue

shell shale
#

Did you do 9/9 vaults?

#

Because 3 of my pieces were pvp rewards

latent pier
#

6/9 :/

#

I genuinely don't like the pvp in sl.

shell shale
#

Me neither lol

#

I hit 1950. And I get 1 win a week and do rbgs to cap

#

Had a 58 k shield slam yesterday in an rbg

latent pier
#

Kek

#

Demo is kinda gross in pvp

shell shale
#

Necro dh came to steal a base in eye of the storm. And I hit him with that. And he whispered me okay then I won't steal that

latent pier
#

If you have a good pilot

#

Kinda like rogue where you can really tell if you're fighting a bad one or not

shell shale
#

Only thing I didn't like about prot war in pvp. Is I shield walled and shield blocked and procceded to get 100 to 0 by a mm hunter in .2 seconds

#

With 0 stacks while carrying flag.

#

I mitigated like 200k dmg

#

I was like alright then

lime urchin
latent pier
#

2pc shield slam is pure pain

shell shale
#

Necro is super fun spam rage and shield wall and banner 100% uptime

#

Shield wall not 100% but feels like it

latent pier
#

Feels like I can't spend rage fast enough still. I fizzle out with 30s on banner cd.

#

Wtb 2pc

shell shale
#

Yeah I wouldn't play Necro without at least 2pc tbh

#

Kyrian spear go brr at that point

latent pier
#

I suppose

shell shale
#

It's not too bad

latent pier
#

But it seems tanky enough

shell shale
#

It's just 2 piece rewards you for spending rage by giving you more rage

#

So it's pretty nice

latent pier
#

I hate how the kyrian and nf are the go-to. Necro is the true warrior covenant

vernal vale
#

I've been Night Fae all expac and AA slaps pretty good too. Plus it interrupts casters.

#

Necro has the best warrior flavor of them all to me for sure.

ocean yoke
#

every time on the oils before the manastorms i miss being fae

humble tendon
#

Finally i got my 278 tier set shoulders so 1/4 thats a start

lime urchin
latent pier
#

Eyyy

humble tendon
#

time to practice necro πŸ™‚

#

for when i get more

lime urchin
#

I have nightmares of all the yuuhuus at the blue bois but mah spear is so juicy!

chrome falcon
#

man the timer in streets is BRUTAL tight

#

we had 1 death which was our boomie during his CDs on trash and we failed it on 22

shell shale
#

Lol a guildie of mine swapped warrior this week and I proceeded to trade him 2 heroic tier pieces 2handed and rygelon gloves. And he proceeded to loot a tier.

#

And he had a gavel from time walking

craggy pilot
#

how is warrior doing highest dps on Halondrus HC, but pala is doing highest on Skolex HC? arent they both ST bosses? πŸ€”

shell shale
#

You can't miss on halondrus

#

So it makes fury better

chrome falcon
#

are you talking about dps or prot

shell shale
#

Oh

chrome falcon
#

fury isn't highest dps on skolex anyway

shell shale
#

I forgot where I was

#

Lol

chrome falcon
#

warrior might be higher on halondrus because it's a longer fight so more execute

#

but i wouldn't read into it

#

on a 3-4 min fight like that it's just RNG

craggy pilot
#

im talking tank dps πŸ˜„

#

just wondering which tank i should actually be playing for my Raid

#

Ashen seems fun as fk

#

and Charge weaving is kinda jerky in raid 😦

chrome falcon
#

not really

craggy pilot
#

but with the recent Spell Reflect buff, i was reconsidering my warr

sturdy sable
#

I hear blood does good aoe and funnel

#

But then youd have to play a DK

craggy pilot
#

ye its currently between Pala and Warr

#

druid DPS seems a bit insane on add fights

#

guardian

sturdy sable
#

Its just been nerfed

craggy pilot
#

30k dps on Anduin HC 🀣

viral flume
#

Blood dk has the best st dps with 4pc if they are allowed to be greedy and tank a majority of the time

sturdy sable
#

Check logs again in a couple of weeks to get a better metric

craggy pilot
#

but ye im surprised Palas are not WAY more ahead than they are

#

thought their ST was superior

sturdy sable
craggy pilot
#

Pala on Rygelon doing 11.800 dps

#

Sense doing 11.400 dps

urban portal
viral flume
#

If you have a venth boomy tho that gets the pi, a NF prot pal that gives them blessing of summer during their cds will absolutely slap

urban portal
#

OUR damage

viral flume
#

And the blessing of summer damage, shows up on meters for the druid, but, in logs counts as the pally damage

urban portal
craggy pilot
viral flume
#

Yucky

urban portal
#

No reason to play venth when you can play fae and steal dam

viral flume
#

I'd never be caught playing prot pally tho, my pally is 100% holy

#

my guild is kinda pepega tho, so considering doing Retribution Aura so i get free wings whenever someone dies πŸ˜„

its usually inevitable

amber herald

what's the proc rate on this does anybody know?

soft prairie
#

once a minute or so

amber herald
#

kinda eh then

urban portal
#

says 1 ppm on AMR

#

yeah

#

tho its about the same power as RDM?

#

but rdm does damage

sturdy sable
#

Rdm does a crap load of damage if your getting piped

strong forum
#

if you rng well on proto its almost decent

#

but its generally considered pretty bad

amber herald
#

it'd be replacing a 229 scale too

urban portal

Ye

#

Ask for pi

craggy pilot
#

πŸ˜„

#

without PI then lol

#

and without WF 😦

mighty valley
#

I feel pretty close with 2 set on pure uptime fights

strong forum
#

even without PI and without WF you can get 100% uptime

lime urchin
#

But that requires pressing buttons

lofty widget
#

100 % uptime on bosses is quite easy with 4pc

mighty cairn
#

bosses yeah m+ prob not

lofty widget
#

depends on the dungeon

ive had 95 % uptime in like, mists and dos

latent pier
#

that two hander is kinda insane

sweet summit
#

well, yea

#

for 5 specs

mighty valley

i'm mixed on it since everyone drops off wanting to kill the last boss after you get it once

sweet summit

6 maybe

latent pier

fury gets a lot out of it

most of the time i use last stand and shield wall together throughout a key. is that trolling? how do you guys normally use those 2 cds?

strong forum
#

dont pair them

#

unless you need to

#

which you rarely should need to

#

SW has a much lower CD

median tulip
#

I usually have a plan for where I'm going to use them; specific big pulls

strong forum
#

LS can be treated as a DPS cd if youre not gonna need it for defensive play

median tulip
#

First platform on DOS, for example

azure smelt
#

so i usually use both

mighty valley
#

I usually hold SW a little on that pull for when I know people are gonna slack on interrupts / big guy gonna enrage

median tulip
#

Usually we Lust/Shield Wall the first platform, and use the Earth Elemtnal on the second

mighty valley
#

pop LS immediately though, as a health buffer for pull/DPS cooldown

#

i've been going left straight to ardenweald so i don't need to worry about holding CDs for 2nd pack this season

#

can pull endlessly in ardenweald with basically no risk

solar tusk
#

Are somebody know, why are conduit "Unnerving Focus" doesn't work with legendary "Reprisal"?

blazing condor
#

Cus UF is connected to last stand

#

And has nothing to do with reprisals effects

odd tree
solar tusk
#

I mean when i use LS with UF it hasn't effect on Reprisal

blazing condor
#

Sorry i dont get what you mean. Why would it have an effect on reprisal? Reprisal is connected to charge/intervene. Not Last Stand

chrome falcon
#

He's talking about the rage generation

#

It might just be a bug, UF doesn't work with necro banner either

blazing condor
#

oh

#

Idk makes sense that it wouldnt affect the rage gain from rep

#

Cus it flat out says what rage you get. But at the same time i get it

chrome falcon
#

it flat out says what rage you get on every other ability

#

it definitely doesn't "make sense" but if it's not working it's just a bug

mossy ferry
solar tusk
chrome falcon
#

someone probably could be idk if the bug you mentioned exists

#

i can check now

#

yep, he's correct

#

the extra rage from reprisal isn't getting buffed by unnerving focus

#

which i assume is a known bug but

#

dumb

urban portal
#

im assuming charge itself is getting it

chrome falcon
#

i charged with 63% bonus rage and got 52 rage out of the deal

#

so 20 from charge + 63% bonus = 32

#

then 20 from reprisal

urban portal
#

math checks out

so i dunno who our resident "report bugs to blizzard" guy is, but there's one for ya

make them fix unnerving focus+banner too while you're at it

i don't get enough rage as it is

UF doesnt work with the rage refund from execute either, but that might be intentional or you could spin it like that since its a refund and not exactly generation ratge

yeah i'm not surprised it doesn't work with execute

im still and will be forever medge tho that signet doesnt work with our ravager

make bonegrinder work with ravager ratge

it does.

ravager doesn't replace bladestorm for us it's just a talent

ya but bonegrinder is coded to work with both ravager and bladestorm

is that.... good? i guess even 2x damage whirlwind is way less dpr than revenge spam

its not good

it does good dmg, but the fact that WW doesnt reset SS is why its awful

if it had the reset chance it would defo be good since they uncapped WW

i wonder if we have enough rage that it doesn't matter but probably not

would be nice if it procced SS

idk if the damage is hot garbage

banner is a fairly sizeable damage increase

it's no spear

bring classes that need mastery, give deeps mastery, use fleshcraft on haste buff mob in plaguefall or vers banner in top - thats it for necroprot, i went straight back to nf/kyrian prot

but it's also not nothing

It'd be somewhere between Venth and Kyrian
