Tazavesh: Streets of Wonder

[With realm restarts] Adjusted the placement and composition of non-boss enemies in several locations. Total enemy forces required to complete the dungeon on Mythic+ difficulty has been reduced accordingly.

#

does this mean every Streets route is remade?

lofty widget
#

sounds to me like they removed certain packs/made packs smaller

#

so probably

rugged mural
#

Hoping MDT is able to reflect those changes today

hollow hill
gray iris
#

thanks

strong forum
#

its basically +7ilvl on your shield in regards of block value if you keep it in defensive mode forever

#

so its pretty good defensively until you get the 285 shield

hollow hill
#

Oh wow that's pretty big

#

Would be nice if the damage on the offense mode was a little better

#

I could see that being useful in M+

strong forum
#

cant have nice things

hollow hill
#

Like, on the heroic version it's 19 damage.. that's gotta be completely negligible

urban portal
#

in m+

#

just completely useless in raid

maybe just have 4 set

🤷

unique cloak
#

I dont come here often, and I dont see it in pins.. Ravager interacts with Merciless Bonegrinder and it slaps incase no one has found that

ebon geyser
#

U so nice jakey

west walrus
#

That might be simpler

ebon geyser
#

Lol

west walrus
#

I'm dumb

#

:D

west walrus
#

You are definitely stormforged for a reason :D

jagged pier
#

its a degenerate play style

#

actively stops u using mitigation to get full use out of it

#

and overcap rage

ebon geyser
#

Jakey for valkyr

jagged pier
#

which is dumb

#

especially with tier set

unique cloak
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Didnt see it anywhere just informing for anyone who didnt know

ebon geyser

@jagged pier valkyr when. I think u are nice enough to deserve it.ExcitedBlushette

This week aff are fck hard!!

#

Bos with forti

#

Lol

minor helm
#

MBG proccing after ravager ends

jagged pier
#

yes so u have to hold rage for the end

minor helm
chrome falcon
#

i don't do the bonegrinder thing on like

#

real packs

#

but if it's just a bunch of shit that hits for 2 damage it does burst very hard

#

it's pretty good in sanguine

#

i only do it as necro though where you can burn a bit more rage and be a bit tankier, plus the wws hit harder

#

the damage is very very high but it's so terrible to just burn all that rage and mitigate absolutely nothing

#

unless i can come right out of the WWs with an outburst'd SS i only do 2 or 3 WWs

#

yeah that sounds real bad

#

seismic is terrible with whirlwind

#

whirlwind hits 4 times

#

seismic only gives you 75% of one of those 4 hits

#

yeah i mean if nothing did any damage we could probably pump pretty hard

#

yeah

#

unless it's something giga low and you're playing seismic

wild hemlock
#

waiiiiiiit booming voice is the talent right lmao

#

not the shout lego

#

phew i thought we were going back to the shout lego

lofty widget
#

isnt it still BV for raid BSC for m+?

chrome falcon
#

BV if you're necro i should specify sorry

lofty widget
#

idk if that extra rage is needed to maintain banner

chrome falcon
#

it's the tier as well

mighty valley
#

3/4 for weeks now

#

assuming I don't get it from raid this week I can just zap a 272 immediately next tuesday

#

don't have any random 278s from vault in the right slots sadly

lofty widget
#

that boss does nothing to pwarr

chrome falcon
#

that's like

#

the best pwarr boss in the whole expansion

#

shield block counters iron spikes and SR counters the giant nuke mechanic

#

the boss also stuns itself for half the fight so you have 100% blocked hits

jagged pier
#

well u didnt 18 sd does no damage

lofty widget
#

you can also alternate SW/trinket/demo for every spikes and be more than fine

chrome falcon
#

i think pwar might literally be able to do that fight without a healer

#

it'd be close but at 18 it might be doable with the right trinkets

mighty valley
#

that fight is more about everyone else handling orbs/immunities and not getting hit by swirls

#

and the longer it goes on the more likely it is someone goofs

#

also just a big healer check

chrome falcon
#

sure it's not an easy fight when you account for everyone else

mighty valley
#

v frustrating on my mw monk trying to keep uptime for kicking

chrome falcon
#

but it's THE fight we're best suited for in the whole expansion i think

mighty valley
#

I could, haven't gone hard on other covenants on alts yet

#

venthyr was just the best for everything by far last patch

#

anyway this is prot warrior

#

press shield block, everyone

dark lark
#

Already have 4p, do I take 278 shoulders for creation catalyst next week or do I take 278 wrists for immediate ilvl?

limpid pawn
#

278 shoulders

chrome falcon
#

can't say without seeing the rest of your setup

lofty widget
#

i'd take the best long-term upgrade

west walrus

3pieces on my main...

#

Vault decided I needed trinkets this run. Toying with grabbing Codex of the First Technique, but am running Blood-Spattered Scale and Slimy Consumptive Organ. How does CFT stack up against BSS? The SCO is a nice burst heal every 20 sec, reluctant to give that up.

dawn canyon
#

can u show the box?

dull gazelle
blazing condor
#

scale + codex is pretty solid

#

SCO is not really good

chrome falcon
#

please do not wear slimy consumptive organ that trinket is wildly terrible

#

whereas codex is excellent especially at higher levels

#

codex is going to provide more ehps and do damage

dull gazelle
#

ah, good point.

chrome falcon
#

plus it means you're not wearing double on-use

#

🤮

dull gazelle
#

The SCO heal was super helpful more than a few times when healer was dealing with DPS shenanigans, but, agreed, double on use has been "fun"

chrome falcon
#

if you really want a panic button for when your group fucks up, scale fits that role

ebon geyser
#

Double on use 🤢

chrome falcon
#

i wear double on use in raid sometimes but in m+ definitely not what you want

ebon geyser
#

Won't the internal CD will conflict

patent gorge
#

Do we have any healing / damage details on Codex ? If it’s good then I’ll start farming it

chrome falcon
#

@ebon geyser it was basically only on sylvanas where scale could be a life-saver with bad rng in p3

dull gazelle
#

The internal CD conflicts a bit. but not terrible. Especially because the SCO has only 20 second CD. But, again, double on use is not optimal, I've just been gutting through it because bad luck on drops

#

Wasn't scale used on Anduin with Liquid's kill?

#

that DK?

chrome falcon
#

dunno about that

#

scale does have value on that fight

#

in the downstairs phase when your healers are totally ghosting you

dull gazelle
#

not sure if that 1.2k is total per second, or for each hit during each second.

blazing condor
#

it probably works like aegis

#

12 second window with every melee hit being reduced by X amount during that time-window

chrome falcon
#

not just melee hits

blazing condor
#

yeah sorry

chrome falcon
#

and unless they've fixed it the tooltip is wrong

#

the max reflect is 10x what it says

dull gazelle
#

🤯

median tulip
#

Both of the Technique trinkets are excellent

#

I am currently rocking both Techniques, and I can confirm that it's a wonderful setup. I would only swap to Scale if I really needed to ride one specific damage event

strong forum
#

keep in mind the tooltip from codex is bugged

#

the damaged absorbed per hit amount is 10x of what the tooltip says

#

they forgot to add a 0

#

i talk alot

#

and sponge the knowledge

dapper swift
#

what are some tricks you guys are using to survive trash in DOS? Oof lol

cinder storm
#

Kick shadowcore like your life depends on it because it does.

west walrus
#

First 23 of the season, PF, first boss => frontal => two deaths :D

dapper swift
#

The first pull is killing me with 8K healing and full cds :/

chrome falcon
#

blow every CD first pull, wo to a boss/ardenweald and then just use full CDs every inner-ring pull

#

if you're dying through all your CDs then kite

#

bonesoldiers and scribes cant 1 shot you if you're not in melee range

dapper swift
#

then dps complains to stop moving bc ur kiting

#

HAhahahahah

#

ty

dawn canyon
#

theyll complain more if u die okayge

#

so fuck em

dapper swift
#

I mean im not tanking 20s yet working on 18s im 2660 but it seems like DOS is the only one i run outta buttons to live lol

mighty valley
#

you should be lusting that first pull so many things should die pretty quick during your biggest CDs

cinder storm
#

Try to stay in a pack for about 5-10s then kite, the ring packs are the hardest because of the casters and the poison, the first pack is easy and easier with lust. It also depends if you are pugging or running with a comp but your team should be helping you as much as possible, you can only survive for so long before needing to kite

inland wasp
#

i hate my vault choice....get my 4 set...or 278 scale

#

yeah

#

im leaning scale...just for the fact that ill craft my last tier piece next week if i dont get it from raid

#

creation catalyst opens next week

#

my thought process right now is....i can take the chest and have the ability to trade off if i loot it tonight OR take the scale now hope for the chest drop if not craft the missing tier piece at current ilvl or potentaly higher with the catalyst next week

#

leaning scale cause then extensivly i get both pieces just have to wait a week

spiral warren
#

Don’t loot till ya done raid clear then

#

Can wait to see if you loot tier or not and decide.

inland wasp
#

thats another option

cinder nova
#

I got a scuffed 4p lads

#

2 RF slots

#

but 4p is 4p

upper flame
#

I’d take scale, you gonna get 4p eventually. Scale might not appear for the rest of the season

viral field
chrome falcon
#

scale is pretty medium these days

#

but you'll probably never see it again and given enough time you'll get full 278 tier

inland wasp
#

Scale is still one of if not the best trinket for us still is it not?

chrome falcon
#

i'd be much happier with a 252 aegis and a codex if i was tanking something that hurts

#

i just don't think a 278 scale is much better than a 272 yknow

inland wasp
#

I have the 252 aegis and a 262 scale equipped atm

chrome falcon
#

if you're progressing in the raid this week you're maybe trolling your guild a little bit by not taking tier but that's your call

inland wasp
#

Tonight we are doing a normal reclear of just tier bosses trying to get some more 4 sets

chrome falcon
#

probably just wait unless the tier piece is a big ilvl upgrade

inland wasp
#

Its a normal ryg piece vs a 252 chest i have equipped

chrome falcon
#

oh gotcha thought the tier might have been 278/285

#

just wait until after your reclear then

inland wasp
#

God i wish lol

#

I think thats what ill do is just wait. Itll suck for our other warrior if i get it and cant trade it to him but thems the breaks

#

Monk and rogue alrdy have there 4 sets so its just him and i on that token

craggy pilot
#

lol nvm, it timed anyway haha

#

wtf 😄

chrome falcon
#

how the fuck are there 13 minutes between boss 3 and 4

craggy pilot
#

wiped on last boss

chrome falcon

with only 7 deaths?

austere forum
#

for eng. belt.. Which is more dps? Damage Retaliator or Erratic Genesis Matrix?

lofty widget
#

both do close to 0 dmg and the genesis matrix can only be applied to crafted gear, youre probably better off with the move speed or invis

austere forum
#

thanks 🙂

median tulip
#

Doesn't the invis backfire?

vocal geode
#

backfires more often for me than works

#

but when it works it's nice

#

maybe I should max my engineering

sweet summit
#

i've had it backfire twice so far 🙂

#

if it backfires just wait the debuff and use pot

latent pier
vocal geode
#

engineering res rarely backfires

#

but that invis backfires 9/10 times for me

old flame
#

Hello Prot frens

#

another week another vault

#

I beg your assistance

chrome falcon
#

ring's ok

#

neck is trash if i remember rightly

old flame
#

crit vers neck

vocal geode
#

wtb neck on my monk

old flame
#

haste verse ring

#

wep is a slight ilvl boost but I don't know if that's worth

#

Simc says trinket

#

but very sus I think on that

median tulip
#

That trinket is utter shite

#

The stacks it builds are on the target, not on you, so it only does anything on long single target fights

vocal geode
#

ye

#

trinket is dog

#

even more so for tanking

old flame
#

Ring then?

vocal geode
#

ring nice for prot

#

neck good for arms/fury

old flame
#

I hardly ever dps, I don't actually like to

vocal geode
#

without knowing your current gear I'd say ring then

old flame
#

I also have a 259 signet of colapsing stars

waxen cradle
#

I would say ring as its BiS and you will ultimately be farming for it either way

mighty egret
#

2piece gang

#

278 head with socket

old flame
#

Ring it is, thanks fam

waxen cradle
#

@old flameAs far as weapon you can simply have your BiS drop from farming the dungeon and upgrade it to 272, and the neck you have you lose a shitload of haste, and for me rings and necks I never really follow max item level rules

old flame
#

yeah, I feel that, if it was a 278 wep then things would be different

waxen cradle
#

yeah exactly

old flame
#

259 isn't as big a boost as 272 ring

#

it's also max so don't need to burn valor on it either

waxen cradle
#

simply killing the first few bosses in heroic Sep you can get a 265 weapon either way

#

not hard to get weapons is all I am saying, more of a time investment than anything but hey thats WoW anyway

old flame
#

also, wing 3 of LFR has 2 tier on it?

#

DAMN

#

er 3 tier

radiant magnet
#

triple the zero luck

atomic current
#

What leggo do you guys run for raid?

waxen cradle
#

yep scuffed tier bonus, but a bonus is a bonus and I have been trying so I say don't hate

old flame
#

reprisal

#

some fights are wall worthy

atomic current
#

The wall isn't good?

radiant magnet
#

reprisal on most. the wall if I cant consistently charge (rare) or the tank buster is rough

old flame
#

but that's dependent on the level of content

atomic current
#

I figured since I'm not zoom zooming to use the wall

old flame
#

the wall is okay, but it's less rage and less damage than the wall

#

and with our tier set, RAGE IS LYFE

atomic current
#

I don't have any not

waxen cradle
#

Me personally Reprisal like 95ish % for the time and The Wall on fights where I feel it will be pretty much pure magic and I dont see getting all of the uses off of Reprisal

old flame
#

Last tier only time I ran wall was mythic eye and heroic sylv

atomic current
#

Ahh okay. I'm just getting back into prot. Been having a blast

waxen cradle
#

honestly you just kind of game it out where you think it "might" be wise to run The Wall, but 95% of the time or more Reprisal is the play

old flame
#

check what sense ran, run that 🙂

atomic current
#

Lol

sick sentinel
#

How do you guys deal with the wicked bolt guys in HoA

waxen cradle
#

I would even go so far as to say 98% of the time as I can't think of but one or maybe 2 bosses in Sepulcher that you would need The Wall

sick sentinel
#

they legit just eat me up

atomic current
#

Spell reflect is king

old flame
#

have melee friends who remember what an interrupt button is

atomic current
#

Shockwave then spell reflect.

#

Try to get mobs on the same casting.

old flame
#

Rygelon and lords? maybe mythic skolex? not sure about jailer haven't fought him on any difficulty

waxen cradle
#

Remember to interrupt, go off on my friends when they scuff my SReflect, stun, and again yell at friends if they dont interrupt

atomic current
#

I had a hard time in crab man.

old flame
#

stormbolt has it's uses

atomic current
#

I had a tough time with the tank mechanic. Spell reflect wasn't up for each cast

old flame
#

what difficulty?

#

don't forget about demo shout

atomic current
#

Normal. The second time I got it but I was getting blasted.

old flame
#

hardest part for me was remembering that you can block lance

#

so when you're in the move phase you gotta keep it up

#

and keep pointed at crabby boi

atomic current
#

Yeah, I kept forgetting that too

waxen cradle
#

Get used to swapping at 1 stack of his tank mechanic also, on heroic if you take 2 you get deleted by the second hit of the tank mechanic unless you have a very big CD up

old flame
#

reprisal helps with that

#

you can intervene people and get a charge of SB

#

and move

atomic current
#

SB doesn't reduce the damage tho, right?

old flame
#

it does

#

you can block lance

atomic current
#

But not lightshatter beam tho. It's cosmic damage

old flame
#

correct

#

but you should only be taking one at a time

atomic current
#

I was having problems with beam

old flame
#

double beam is v bad

atomic current
#

Yeah

frigid plume
#

i ran wall on halondrus and rotated between SR, demo shout / fleshcraft, and SW

#

use SW on the ones where you have to take a laser at the same time the missiles hit

#

SR and wall should be available every 3rd cast each so you just have to do different stuff to fill in the odd one out

chrome falcon
#

on normal you shouldn't even die to 2 beams

old flame
#

the beam really shouldn't hurt that much

#

exactly mattacate

chrome falcon
#

it's only 2x damage from the second hit and 2x normal is like survivable with a CD pretty easily

#

it wouldn't even 1 shot you if you pressed no buttons

real thunder
#

Ok just got my 4 piece (normal ilvl 😦 ) I hear necro is pretty strong in M+. Which soulbind and soulbind abilities are recommended?

old flame
#

marilth

#

Marileth*

#

Necro in a place like spires is gonna be a bit rough for uptime still

#

also prepare your hands to hurt lol, that apm is no joke

real thunder
#

ok i'll take a look at Mari, thanks! is she the same answer for single target in raids if i want to dabble with necro?

old flame
#

yeah absolutely

#

kevin is so good

#

6% damage boost for 40s

real thunder
#

Mari is the way to go then, thanks!

old flame
#

Heimir if you want to go super turtle, but you shouldn't need to

#

for Marileth go 3 potency 3 endurance

#

potency necro one aaf and ashen jugg

mighty egret

umbral sluice
#

Am I the only one looking at prot tier bonus and it just look like nothing. A free ignore pain (which IP is already lackluster) and gain 45 instead of 15 rage on our SS every 240 rage

#

While I'm looking at other tank tier sets and they all have insane stuff making them more tank

mighty cairn
#

just pretend the other tank specs don't exist

#

prot is p good no cap

urban portal
#

^

#

the tier set just scales in AOE poorly

umbral sluice
#

I tank with a blood DK and I swear, I die 10 times before he dies once.

urban portal
#

compared to most

median tulip
#

He probably kills your healers by giving them heart attacks though

mighty cairn
#

that issue sounds like pd

umbral sluice
#

The math just isn't right. A similar ilvl blood DK can prevent more damage, heal wayyy more, and does more damage than a warrior.

chrome falcon
#

Man we have 50% avatar uptime

ocean yoke
#

the tier is nicer than it looks since the extra rage feeds like 3 different damage and survival things at the same time

chrome falcon
#

You literally just listed the 2set

old flame
#

That math is 100% wrong watching

umbral sluice
#

I feel like each tank should excel in one aspect

chrome falcon
#

Without mentioning the vastly strong 4set

old flame
#

the similar ilvl BDK will not prevent more damage

hollow hill
#

I also tank with a blood DK and when I'm really on point my damage taken and healing done are excellent in comparison to him, on top of me doing at least 1 mil more damage on average

old flame
#

that's a given

chrome falcon
#

If you die 10x more than your cotank you need to do more about it than complain sorry bud

#

Our tier might not be insanely strong compared to other tier

#

But it IS insanely strong compared to the content we have to do

#

If you’re dying TEN TIMES before your BDK dies once, that’s all you homie

mighty valley
#

i don't have 4set and my bdk cotank does. bdk overpowered

#

although my damage taken is still way way way less

chrome falcon
#

Oh and saying that BDK prevents more damage than prot is just???? Probably extremely false

hollow hill
#

Yea that's just incorrect

old flame
#

yeah maaaybe when it's magic damage? but doubt

#

BDK armor is almost as paper thin as DH

hollow hill
#

When you're comparing to a blood tank you have to look at self healing as well as damage taken

mighty valley
#

yeah but self-healing causes higher healer blood pressure

chrome falcon
#

Maybe in m+

#

But it’s much easier in raid

#

Fight depending obviously

mighty valley
#

anyway the main point is we're all strong enough

#

also we do have a niche, in that our execute phase is v strong

chrome falcon
#

Yeah I’m not arguing that our tier is medium compared to some of the other shit

#

But there’s no excuse for dying a bunch in anything other than bleeding edge content

old flame
#

Guardian got nerfed what twice?

polar shale

hello guys one question

#

with the 4 piece bonus does Unstoppable Force gains any value or is Ravager still better? I am playing Necro for m+

chrome falcon
#

UF still stinky

polar shale
#

I am guessing Ravager gains tons of value thanks to UHR but I just wanna make sure

chrome falcon
#

Ravager more rage so better with tier

#

Yep you got it

I got heroic sigil today but idk when I'd want that

I only dps in raid and tank keys

tame jasper
#

I primaly use 252 aegis and 252 fate, when pushing (20+). For lowkeys i think i will trade fate to aegis ats the obly dps trinket I have

mighty valley
#

sigil is raid for sure

#

most fights you can use it on pull and then for execute

#

Sigil is like iqd if it wasn't bad

#

A parse monster but not sim bait

I tried Kyrian today and ran dos 15 with quaking / bolesting and we were 3 melee in group

i'm doing it on a healer alt since i already have helm on warrior

#

it's fine, decent stats

#

not one of our best trinkets but better than the trash ones

blazing condor
#

i had it but i think i traded it away

#

seems kinda clunky and dull but if you can get it work its fine

mighty valley
#

you just click someone with it and get stats

#

wouldn't necessarily call it clunky

blazing condor
#

yeah true but you gotta know what stat to get

jagged pier
#

30 min duration isnt even some dungeons

blazing condor

granted it takes that long

Help, i need advice^^
My rings are 265 haste/mastery from raid hand 262 haste/vers crafted

#

4 set already

blazing condor
#

I would probably pick the gloves myself i think

lyric glen
#

that trinket is nice aswell.. I use that all the time Bloodspattered one

cold zealot
#

its max scale though^^

jagged pier
#

id go ring for me but ive not got your gear

lyric glen
#

Well there is alot of bis items in that vault... Lucky you! 😛

jagged pier
#

but i have better trinkets than scale

#

🤷

cold zealot
#

better than scale?^^

jagged pier
#

yes

#

there are loads

lyric glen
#

what is better than scale?

jagged pier
#

aegis

#

well not loads but a feq

lyric glen

yeah have that too.. I go with both of them

median tulip
jagged pier
#

aegis is bis until end of expansion

cold zealot

got mythic aegis^^

cold zealot
median tulip
#

Hmmm

jagged pier
#

like i even traded scale away yesterday because im probs never gunna use it

cold zealot
#

lol scale is my 100% use trinket in raid

median tulip
#

I'd probably take the Scale, myself, but that's mostly because it means I never have to run DOS with Prot loot spec again and can focus on getting the Arms drops

jagged pier
#

what? why

mellow gorge
#

mmm finally something good

jagged pier
#

its not needed in raid at all

lyric glen
#

I use both my trinkets like almost on cd.. 😛 super neat

mellow gorge
#

wait

#

isn't heart of the swarm good?

jagged pier
#

no

lyric glen
#

I asked about that earlier it doesnt look so good?

mellow gorge
#

i mean

#

3 min cd yeah

#

but juicy dmg and heal

jagged pier
#

no raid trinket is good

mellow gorge
#

hmm

#

well i don't want to go back to SoD for OWS or Aegis either

#

guess scale/phial it is

jagged pier
#

so u go for dungeon trinkets because they are all better than the raid trinkets

mellow gorge
#

then what about the uh

#

ticking sack of terror

#

compared to phial, is it any good?

jagged pier
#

better

mellow gorge
#

oh

#

really?

#

interesting

median tulip
mellow gorge
#

i'll have to get my hands on it then

jagged pier
#

so im never going to get it over all the dps that actually want it

#

which is everyone

lyric glen
#

ist the first techbnique good? it is up there on the top of the lists too together with scale

#

yeah the sigil is ranked high aswell now

Hmm so im not farther than before^^
Scale is tempting for raid but would only be 6 ilvl bump, gloves would be 13 next week

Was just on subcreation where it places all tanks in s tier this week except warrior which is in d tier is there Any reason for that or is just because of lack of data this week

The only tier list you need.

What the fuck is this

#

NW easiest?

ionic fern
#

Skewed data.

uncut notch
#

Surely mists is way way easier

#

the maze means that bolstering just isnt an affix

jagged pier
uncut notch
#

in NW you cant do any of the spicy pulls

jagged pier
#

NW is dog easy its like 3 pulls

ionic fern
#

Isn't bolstering a joke now?

#

So it's w/e?

jagged pier
#

yes

sweet summit
#

mists is harder than nw

forest walrus
#

I mean you can just look at the data

uncut notch
forest walrus
#

NW a 26 has been done

#

Mist 25

#

so at the moment, NW ranks higher when you take all the data that is available

#

simple as that

hardy viper
#

Is there other sites that are better 2 use thab subcreation for that kind of info

ionic fern
#

What info are you even looking for?

#

Sites like subcreation don't actually provide anything.

uncut notch
ionic fern
#

People are weird.

#

I enjoy the tanks that are not "meta". That's why i became a warrior in the first place.

#

Just to show people that tier lists are dumb and you can do what ever any other tank can.

#

😂

blazing condor
#

Mists becomes harder and harder with key level

#

Because of a tight timer and a linear dungeon

#

Where as NW is incredibly open and you can do a lot of fast strats

#

youre not limited by the maze and shit

primal cape
#

picking a pack before the maze and at ends maze helps

So, when do you use Revenge then in your rota?

jagged pier

what do u mean

#

u should use it anyway

lofty widget
#

offensive rage dump

#

and to do dmg in general

jagged pier
#

its part of your rotation already or should be

#

it procs SS which is also more rage

#

etc etc

high raptor
#

The upper row display pretty good my acutally priority in using the skills

#

displays*

jagged pier
#

no

high raptor
#

no? ^^

jagged pier
#

u barely should be using TC anymore

#

u use IP alot as a rage dump

#

but if u have tier set u again so much rage at times its pointless to press TC

#

and pointless to using anything but to dump rage into IP

high raptor
#

Whaat, no Thunder Clap?

lofty widget
#

it hits like a wet noodle anyway

high raptor
#

xD

jagged pier
#

TC has been trash always and its even lower in the prio now because of all the rage we get from everything else

ionic fern
#

TC is your rotational rage generator.
It does poor damage.
With tier your rage generation already goes through the roof so you don't need to use TC as much anymore.

mellow gorge
#

i like TC

high raptor
#

wow okey

mellow gorge
#

i shall press TC

#

it makes cool lightning effects

ionic fern
#

Agreed.

high raptor
#

But, just to get it right, Ignore Pain doesnt do much. With TC i would do dmg. Isnt Dmg then more Value?

#

IP doesnt do much dmg*

ionic fern
#

IP does no damage.

#

IP is off the GCD.

high raptor
#

thats what i mean

ionic fern
#

IP + Revenge.

#

Your goal is to avoid rage capping.

lofty widget
#

IP prevents you from overcapping, TC overcaps you

high raptor
#

Well, okey. I used TC so often xD

#

It was like my first ability i used in every pull

ionic fern
#

There is the nuance that if you're not playing properly then TC is still valuable due to the rage generation it provides.

#

But generally when you play well you should be more or less flowing in rage.

#

With 4p + double lego.

high raptor
#

So, is The prio is Revenge > TC?

ionic fern
#

For damage, yes.

jagged pier
#

in general with 4 set and double leggo, u literally only press TC if u have nothing else to press and u dont have outburst

lofty widget
#

btw, would you guys rather sit on a SS proc to dump rage with revenge, or rather just IP to SS immediately

jagged pier
#

like if u can spend rage or SS u do ither of those before TC'ing

jagged pier
#

the tier set is all about dump

#

u dump

#

so u can gen more

high raptor
#

Allright guys

#

thank you

median tulip

#

Is following right to consume my rage? Shield block > Ignore Pain > Damage

for AoE trinket

what should i replace my phial with

either RDM or Decanter for m+

ionic fern

Generally you want to spend your excess rage on Revenge while using IP to avoid any potential overcapping (due to it being off the gcd).
