There was only one time in WoW when Highmountain were goated

#

Only one time

Back when you could have warbringer

Ugly, too big, bad animations

look if youre talking about female

But it attracts the best players so who can really say

fuck female tauren

Female has better animations and better tmog

And is smaller

So it's infinitely better than male tauren

The only way

Where is this

In WoW

I tried undead for about 10 minutes then instantly swapped back when I pressed my war stomp hot key and died to chaos bolts 2 seconds later

Undead is cool

Vulpera's nose for trouble is pretty strong for M+

ebon geyser
#

But orc rage and immune to stun might be good but idk

#

Or maghar poison immunity

scenic mural
#

Mag har is awful warrior race

dapper coral
#

Nose was usually like 13-15% of my healing for a given 15+ dungo in S1 and S2, probably less now due to rage surplus

limpid pawn
#

what's the best way to get the best value from necro banner?

whole sphinx
#

Highmountain greatness ftw

chrome falcon
#

@limpid pawn press it and extend it

#

If it happens to line up with groups CDs cool

#

But no biggie

limpid pawn
#

the necro banner sims, not a lot of really meta classes are god tier except fire mage

dapper coral
#

the group buff part of it now is whatever tbh

#

press it, keep it up, do big dam (and also get a decent chunk of defensive buffs during it), and get carpal tunnel

#

Last Stand turns into an even better dps CD w/ the condy during it too

#

one Outburst SS is almost a full rage bar during it

ebon geyser
median tulip
#

The difference between any of the races is miniscule

limpid pawn
#

how much extra damage do you get during banner?

#

it's 20% extra str?

dapper coral
#

400 mastery, up to 22% STR (w/ 278 condy), and 4 rage/sec. It's a lot when you consider it can have a near 100% uptime

limpid pawn
#

wait uwt

#

100% uptime?

dapper coral
#

necro lego

limpid pawn
#

yeah i know you can extend it

#

but it actually extends that long?

mighty valley
#

extends as long as you keep getting and spending rage

dapper coral
#

ye. 2 and 4p help a ton in terms of extra rage from Outburst

mighty valley
#

keep pulling and you can def keep it up til next cast

#

and most bosses in m+ have no downtime, real easy to keep it up on them forever

dapper coral
#

M+ you'll probably have more drops compared to raid bosses, but it'll be up more than it's not (versus the pre-lego 12.5% max uptime)

#

A lot of the time, especially under buffs (Vy, Urh, Lust, procs, etc), you're essentially just spamming IP and Revenge and weaving in the SS when it resets

safe thistle
#

i prefer staying kyr over necro for keys the utily pack it comes with is way better.

limpid pawn
#

k

#

im gonna test it out

real fossil
#

so the sheild off first boss is ass huh? like would a 262 be better than a 265

#

Sepulcher's Savior .?

chrome falcon
#

No

#

Ilvl is king

livid dagger
#

What is more important? Haste or Vers for tanking?

median tulip
#

Haste

#

Sepulchre's Saviour is an ok shield; it's nothing special, but it's not exactly bad

real fossil
#

its active did .7% of my damage and 2.6% healing in a key

#

and it gives up like 90 secondary stat

median tulip
#

It comes with bonus block rating though, which is incredibly rare

real fossil
#

its a fairly low block increase according to wowhead comments, idk how useful that is

chilly brook
#

It’s better defensively, worse offensively when compared to same ilvl

#

Overall it won’t matter much, run what you got and is the highest ilvl

urban portal
#

^

#

thats basically it

mighty valley
#

you can probably eke some value out of the active switching if you really really really tryhard but you really just want it in defense mode all the time

urban portal
#

tho im curious if its just more defense if you had a shield with vers on it

#

or something

cinder nova
#

Pepexecute ...I THINK MY SIGIL TRINKY IS CRASHING ME

chilly brook
#

As per jakey

mighty valley
#

yeah i'm more thinking about real tryhard stuff like switching near the end of one pull when defense doesn't matter just so you can open the next pull with the switch into defensive, but it'd be easy to fuck yourself and the max possible gain is tiny

real fossil
#

even in tryhard stuff its a trap

mighty valley
#

think they were nervous to tune it to be the bis shield over the higher ilvl one

#

cmon, give us a cool shield that's overpowered

#

just once

#

is anyone else having an issue with taunting halondras on heroic+ in p2?

#

for some reason i cant take aggro from our other tank

dapper coral
#

not here. I could imagine if you did swaps in an awkward manner, it may make him taunt immune. I believe you can check the logs if that were the case

waxen lark
#

i see ill bring it up to see what will work, thank you

hollow hill
#

We had some issues with taunt swaps last night

#

Only a couple times though

waxen lark
#

weve ended up popping our damage cds to take aggro from one another but its strange that we cant take it with taunt

hollow hill
#

Oh we didn't have that issue, just a couple times where we definitely hit taunt but he snapped back to the other tank so they got 2 beams in a row

waxen lark
#

yeah thats the issue we are having

#

we have stopped taunting during beam cast and it fixed it

hollow hill
#

oh interesting

lilac bloom
#

having issues with DOS 14 with the first set of adds and the 3rd ones.. those magic damage are horrible.. and cos of fort and bolster week make things alot difficult

#

Is there anything i can do about it

scenic mural
#

You kite the small ads in forst pull they have a melee cast. If you kite them they dont cast

lilac bloom
#

yah i have been kiting.. then was ok.. but 3rd set of adds with the death speaker

#

that hurts

#

the most

#

either i die from first group or from 3rd group.. i'm not sure what else to do other then run away.. but as soon as i run or move.. their spells or whateva kept hitting me hard

scenic mural

Idk i just usally cycle my cooldowns and kite and it does the trick

lilac bloom
#

yah i had no problem in last season cos i had ksm and all

but this season its hard

Are you guys focusing the deathspeaker or bolstering it?

Too late now, you're already thinking about it.

Just embrace it.

tawdry dirge
#

whats an avarge uptime with banner in m+

oblique garnet
#

90~%

ionic fern
#

I mean.."average" if you take all people into consideration is probably like ..20%? 😂

mighty valley
#

varies a little since some dungeons have more forced downtime between pulls than others... but you can get it real high if you work at it

tawdry dirge
#

ofc

#

so all are kinda going necro no or what

#

since more fun?

ionic fern
#

Play what ever you want except for Venthyr.

#

In raids NL is the "go-to".

#

In M+ it's more lenient.

tawdry dirge
#

fair

#

so kyrian when u need kyrian buff and necro for necro buff i guess 😄

shell shale
#

And nf if you somehow don't have an nf goer in your group.

tulip kelp
#

What’s best m+ trinket combo? I have 272 phial, OPc, and scale

chilly brook
#

Also depends on the dungeon

#

If you can pull like a madman and your group doesn’t keep taking dirt naps because of it you can easily hit 90% or more

jagged pier
#

can keep banner up from first pull of streets to when u go right or left if u play correctly

chilly brook
#

YMMV I’ve only done like 2 keys as necro

jagged pier
chilly brook
#

But uptime was very high in mists

chilly brook
#

Only dropped when healer didn’t do maze

jagged pier
#

its really fun and easier to play than kyrian

chilly brook
#

It’s hella fun

#

I feel immortal when it’s up tbh

#

So much rage

#

So much IP

#

So much healing

jagged pier
chilly brook
#

And good damage too

#

This has convinced me to tank keys again

#

Haven’t been having fun in keys as fury

jagged pier
chilly brook
#

Something about dying because tanks don’t hold aggro this season isn’t fun

#

And doing 8-10k on dungeon bosses is hilarious

#

As a tank

#

Maybe it’s time to make a return to form @jagged pier

Maybe it’s time to do the 9.2 prot warrior guide

u get my kill videos and thats enough

but im just a scuff version of sense

so may as well watch him

Lol

jagged pier
#

like we killed lithium battery last night, and i saw sense was playing necro on that this week

chilly brook
jagged pier
#

so i gave it ago

#

he had 80% banner uptime, i had 50%

chilly brook
#

Except it’d be 9.2

jagged pier
#

guess it was only my third pull as necro

chilly brook
jagged pier
#

nah its relevant

chilly brook
#

Sense isn’t human

#

Man is just goated on the sticks

jagged pier
#

well i wont beat him but i can get closer to his level

#

like artifcer last night was ahead of rank 3 by about 1k dps, but behind sense by another 500 dps

chilly brook
#

I definitely will say I think Kyrian is better for like DoS

#

At least with the routing I was doing

#

So many Wo skips and some weird downtime between packs

blazing condor
#

Yep

#

Not a lot of banner there

#

Maybe in arden

#

But thats about it

chilly brook
#

It’s goated in Arden

#

Outside of that? Not so much

#

But it’s probably the play on tyrannical

#

The damage you contribute is too good

nah its fine just be rdy to loose it tbh

I havent done a fort dos this season okayge

Nor streets/gamb

chilly brook

Scuffed it pretty hard

Like 24 deaths

#

Still missed the timer by only like 1 minute

#

We scuffed frogger

#

It wasn’t cool

#

Finished muezallah as top dps

#

I’m doing a lot better about not backing myself into a corner where TC is the only thing up when outburst pops

Overall kinda excited to do mythic plus as a tank again

#

Is there any way to get reprisal leggo besides spinning the wheel on random or waiting for the torg wing?

chilly brook
#

By random I assume you mean the buy this get random Lego thing?

#

Cuz you can just go to Twisting Corridor layer 3

#

And reroll that until it’s the right wing

sweet summit
#

ye

chilly brook
#

Only have to clear to the first boss

#

And boom you get it

tulip kelp
#

How do you reroll? I hate torg

chilly brook
#

Hop in

blazing condor
#

Hop out

chilly brook
#

I think you have to do the first floor?

tulip kelp
#

Like right now it says FC or Mort.. I don't need to wait for Twisting Corridor?

chilly brook
#

I could be wrong

#

Either way you just hop in and hop out

sweet summit
#

tc is always open

chilly brook
#

Then go back in

#

It takes like 5 minutes

tulip kelp
#

Hmm ok

chilly brook
#

To get the recipe

tulip kelp
#

So queue for FC?

chilly brook
#

You can literally speed run the fuck out of layer three

chilly brook
#

Layer 3

mighty valley
#

you don't need to do the floor to reset, just keep zoning out and in until you get the right wing for reprisal

chilly brook
#

^

#

There you go

mighty valley
#

and torghast is a joke now, you can just walk to the floor boss, kill, move on

chilly brook
#

Like layer 3 of twisting corridor is like

#

Ilvl 190

#

You basically one shot everything

tulip kelp
#

Sweet I'll try it out now

tulip kelp
#

So.. do I need to get to level 18 on layer 1, then layer 18 on layer 2, and then layer 18 on layer 3 to get the legendary?

sweet summit
#

floor 3 layer 3 or higher is first boss that will drop it iirc

tulip kelp
#

I've never done it before so I have to finish all 18 levels to unlock layer 3 right?

sweet summit
#

but if you have not unlocked layer 3 you will have to do all 18 floord on layer 1 and 2

tulip kelp
#

Fuck me

Hey guys, just coming back to wow on my prot warrior, mainly playing m+, I was wondering what does make warrior tank less popular ? is it utility ? taking too much damages ? not doing enough damages ?

west walrus
#

Because of tier lists ratge

sweet summit
#

mostly because of how the spec works

#

it's not as flashy with huge hps numbers, nor does it have insane group utility

#

warrior is in a great spot atm
altho not meta

#

sidenote @blazing condor bonkcat

novel raptor
#

okay, I dont mind about the meta, I just want to able to tank correctly, also, why are people playing both Kyrian & Necrolord ? What is the advantages of each ? Is one more defensive or does more damage ? I felt like Kyrian was about more damage but playing necrolord a bit, I feel like it has great potential for that as well, not even counting the mastery you bring to your party

strong forum
#

Precisely

#

Kyrian is easier to play and alot of dmg, necro really pops off with 4pc and optimal play

novel raptor
#

yeah, I feel like the set bonuses are underrated, it looks amazing to me, I don't have it yet tho, I feel like booming voice + set + necrolord with anger management looks like a solid build

sweet summit
#

it really is

#

feels great when you pull it off properly
getting insane banner uptime in m+

it's just uhhh

craggy pilot
#

what is the most accurate AOE dungeon for M+?

#

Mists?

strong forum
#

Eh

#

Accurate is the wrong word

#

In mists and SD we can usually get the biggest numbers

#

Because SD has alot of trash, and mists has only very few bosses

craggy pilot
#

SD has also 50% dmg bonus

strong forum
#

Well yeh if you have a venthyr

craggy pilot
#

😄

#

same with NW

#

but maybe Halls is most accurate then? 🤔

strong forum
#

Halls is the least accurate because its the least prot friendly dungeon

primal cape
#

do banner have a range?

strong forum
#

15ish yards

uncut notch
#

just got my asshole expanded by a halls

#

any tips for surviving the pure onslaught of casts and bleeds?

#

I genuinely think i spent more time kiting than actually doing damage

#

and i was taking 20k dps at spikes

median tulip
#

You need your DPS to be handling those obliterator casts

uncut notch
#

the bolstering was just drilling me

#

It was only 17 but felt 2x harder than anything id ever done before

median tulip
#

It's not a pleasant dungeon on bolster; too many variant HP pools

uncut notch
#

Its funny because even my ppal friends were wincing their way through it

#

and they hard counter a lot of mechanics in there

#

so i took 5.6k dtps overall

#

Of which 2k was melee

#

Can you guys look at this please and just tell me - am i missing something because 70-80% mitigation on melee and physical seems good and the magic stuff is 20/30. Is there nothing i can do about that outside of spam IP/SR/SW?

#

What do your guys splits look like?

#

trying to work out if i was fucking up or if the DPS just werent on it enough with interrupts and such

chrome falcon
#

If you got hit by 91 wicked bolts

#

Then uhhh

craggy pilot
#

😄

chrome falcon
#

Uhhhh… that’s pretty atrocious from your whole group

craggy pilot
#

i was like "100 sounds a bit high" but ye wth 😄

uncut notch
#

it was just a pug group, but some of them were doing good enough damage that i would expect them to know how to interrupt

craggy pilot
#

just do a new details window that tracks Overall Interupts

#

then you can see if you have pepega grp

chrome falcon
#

I always tell my groups at the start of the key that I will handle the first 2 casts of wicked bolts

#

First with SR second with shockwave

jagged pier
#

i mean cant tell much at all without u actaully linking the log

chrome falcon
#

And then they can start kicking

craggy pilot
#

random +20 key log i found

chrome falcon

Not optimal but good enough for the average pug

That's alot of fucking wicked bolts, mcguire

It’s nothing to do with your mitigation though that could probably be improved

craggy pilot
#

just random i found on warcraftlogs

chrome falcon
#

You just can’t tank almost triple digit wicked bolts

#

No one can

uncut notch
#

I tried to interrupt as much as i could

craggy pilot
#

its not only you who needs to interrupt tho

#

just run the dung again with different people, you will get a good run eventually

#

thats how it is with pugs

#

50/50

uncut notch
chrome falcon
#

Well that’s bad advice

uncut notch

I have a halls 17 key so will see how it goes

Link the actual log so we can see what happened

You might be absolutely awful regardless of what happened we can’t tell from just one picture of the log

ohhh the conduit

1000 rage wasted

yikes

craggy pilot

Indelible Victory

#

Hunter did 19 casts of Counter Shot

#

Warr 20 Pummel

chrome falcon
#

Yeah that’s a craaaazy amount of wasted rage

craggy pilot
#

no idea what the lock interrupt is called, if they even have one

chrome falcon
#

Nah we don’t need to look at the other people in the key anymore lol there are more pressing things here

craggy pilot
#

where do you see the 1000 rage wasted?

chrome falcon
#

You cast 16 SR which also feels low

tropic linden
craggy pilot
ebon geyser
chrome falcon
#

Also cast intimidating shout once the entire key

craggy pilot
#

kinda wanna try to log a run to get roasted by the discord

chrome falcon

Which is fine unless you’re dying to wicked bolts

craggy pilot

but my PC keeps lagging when i try

tropic linden
craggy pilot
tropic linden
#

Nah, no need to be fancy

craggy pilot
#

dont i need to do /startlogging or something?

tropic linden
#

Only if ur doing raid and want to see something after a wipe

#

Method Raid Tools start the log when u enter a raid/M+

#

but there is also a command

west walrus

command is /combatlog

tropic linden

which i don't remeber

west walrus

same to start / stop logging

jagged pier

same

jagged pier
#

its not about being roasted, imma just not gunna sugar coat mistakes

#

mistakes that we all make btw

#

like for instance in a log i looked at of myself i wasted 400 rage, but i generate nearly twice as much rage in my dungeon

#

wasting 400 is still bad

ebon geyser
#

One tier a week probably And I feel putting a m+ piece might be more beneficial that a play 252 since I think u can keep upgrading the tier

chrome falcon
#

Yeah if someone sent me one of my logs under a different persons name I’d probably flame the shit out of them

So its a bit of a 50/50 between roast and help

#

BUT alas. my q's

craggy pilot
#

indelible victory is literally the worst of all the Endurance Conduits

#

just swap it with anything else

#

tbh i forgot which ones you were using

chrome falcon
#

let him ask his questions

craggy pilot
uncut notch
#
  • you called me out for using HR with 2 set - I was of the understanding that you used AM with 4 set because of the shortened avatar pop/rage generation increase? I dont see anything in the 2 set that moves it away from HR being fav
chrome falcon
#

nope

craggy pilot
#

always AM

chrome falcon
#

HR bad especially in HoA where all the damage is magical that you're scared of

uncut notch
chrome falcon
#

AM has been the play for this whole patch and most of last patch unless you're pushing so high that 1 unblocked melee kills you

#

switch to AM now and never look back

uncut notch
#

I knew bolster was a no go

#

Okay, ill move to AM then

craggy pilot
#

the extra rage from Tier gives huge value for AM

uncut notch
#

Q2 - Indelible victory - all the endurance conduits outside of focus and stalwart seem giga bad

chrome falcon
#

not really, condensed anima is fine

uncut notch
#

fuelled by violence is fractions of a hps, and anima sphere has a long cd

chrome falcon
#

a long CD is better than

#

requiring you to press victory rush

uncut notch
#

Well i was reading on reddit that the key to warrior hps was to just execute and victory rush as much as possible

craggy pilot
chrome falcon
#

anima isn't amazing or anything but it'll do a good amount of healing over a full run and required 0 thought or globals from you

uncut notch
chrome falcon
#

ok first off we're gonna stop reading reddit

craggy pilot
#

Brutal Vitality is good option also

chrome falcon
#

and second, we don't care about padding hps

craggy pilot
#

with the amount of IP we have now

uncut notch
#

and brutal vitality seems like fractions of value

chrome falcon
#

brutal vit is fine

#

we have IP up pretty much all the time now

uncut notch
chrome falcon
#

you had 2.6 IP casts per minute so yeah if you literally never press IP brutal vit is going to be terrible

uncut notch
#

I'll swap to anima sphere and have a go

craggy pilot
#

my healing from a ++15 Gambit

uncut notch
uncut notch
chrome falcon
#

regardless, your third endurance conduit choice is all but irrelevant anyway

uncut notch
#

So lets talk IP

#

I asked a few months ago, whats the point in IP

#

And was told only cast it when capped

#

Has the recent buff "fixed" it

chrome falcon
#

i mean

#

you overcapped 1k rage

uncut notch
#

Or is there value in popping it

craggy pilot
#

the only value is AM & Tier

uncut notch
craggy pilot
#

the defensive value is also there, but not as big as SB

chrome falcon
#

so even if it were correct to "only cast IP when capped"

uncut notch
#

If I pop spear and ravager together it just launches through the roof

chrome falcon
#

yes

#

so you mash IP

uncut notch
craggy pilot
#

smash that IP button when your rage goes jumpy

#

Revenge is GCD

#

just keep enough remaining rage for Revenge

uncut notch
#

So theoretically

craggy pilot
#

and Revenge is also free when you Charge/Intervene

uncut notch
#

Rvg - ip - rvg etc

strong forum
#

It's better to mash and cap IP, than waste rage by not using it...

chrome falcon
#

no just

#

yeah

#

what nomer said

strong forum
#

You want to fuel the rage engine constantly

uncut notch
#

Okay cool

chrome falcon
#

if you're at 60 rage and have an outburst proc

#

press IP before SS

strong forum
#

It feeds into more outburst procs and Anger Management

#

Hint, use anger management

chrome falcon
#

don't IP yourself down to 0 rage if you don't have ravager/outburst to jump you back up to 60

#

but absolutely definitely never overcap that's the most important rule after block uptime

#

also like

#

IP isn't good defensively

uncut notch
chrome falcon
#

but you do need to press it to stay alive...

uncut notch
#

So thats a nice segue to q3

#

Rage

#

Do you have like a line of "Try to stay above 40" or whatever

chrome falcon
#

no

#

just generate and spend

uncut notch
#

or do you just do whatever

#

okay thats kind of how ive been trying to do it, but when i burst with spear, ravager etc it can cap easily and its hard to keep up spending, ill weave in more IP's

#

aaaand Intimidating shout

sturdy sable
#

Generate spend and have rage for block

uncut notch
#

We're just using that as a castbreaker right?

chrome falcon
#

yes

#

as long as your group is hitting the pack

uncut notch
#

Essentially another shockwave

chrome falcon
#

intimidating shout is just an aoe interrupt

uncut notch
#

okay cool

#

Alright

chrome falcon
#

like if you have ravager down

#

and you're 60 rage

#

just IP

#

you'll still have enough rage to hit revenge afterwards

uncut notch
#

Okay cool, lots to think about

#

Thanks team

#

Appreciate you taking the time to explain and not just blasting me haha

craggy pilot
#

when i enabled combatlog in ++15, i was lagging when a lot of stuff is happening

chrome falcon
#

also cast SR more

craggy pilot
#

anyone had that happen before?

chrome falcon
#

way more

#

in HoA at least

uncut notch
pallid musk

I need use intimidating shout more for AoE interrupt

how much of your guy's overall is coming from revenge? I feel like i'm definitely pressing it too much and am squishy as fuck

strong forum
#

It should be your top dmg

#

In keys

sick sentinel
#

I mean it is

chrome falcon
#

if you feel squishy it's probably not because you're revenging too much

sick sentinel

like dmg is fine is more I feel super squishy

chrome falcon

unless you're revenging so much you can't SB

sick sentinel

yeah I think thats the issue

Shield slam should be 2nd

jagged pier

your for sure not playing correctly

strong forum

Around 20%

chrome falcon

7% SS is very l.ow

you're probably TCing too much

#

or just not pushing buttons at all

strong forum
#

15-20% should be from shield slam

lofty widget
#

Probably not pressing buttons enough so you lsck rage to keep mitigation up

strong forum

sick sentinel
#

definitely not TC'ing that much, only 5% of my dmg

#

I think i'm just revenging way to much

strong forum
#

And ofc wcl is down.

#

You're not generating enough

chrome falcon
#

i mean

sturdy sable
#

Well considering slams our main rage generator and hes using it what looks like sparingly we can make the educated assumption that he is not playing correctly

chrome falcon
#

if you're revenging when SS is up

strong forum
#

Cuz 35% dmg from revenge is too much

chrome falcon
#

then yes you're revenging too much

sick sentinel
#

yeah I think thats the issue

chrome falcon
#

SS>anything

sick sentinel
#

revenging with SS up

chrome falcon
#

pretty much

#

yeah that's bad

sick sentinel
#

and I should IP to dump rage

strong forum
#

You're prioritising revenge over generating rage, which makes you deal less dmg overall

sick sentinel
#

if i'm caped and SS is up?

strong forum
#

Yes

sick sentinel
#

ok i'll give it a crack

#

like i'm happy with my overall dmg

strong forum
#

Generating rage and not wasting rage is your highest priority

#

What's your overall dmg

sick sentinel
#

so becoming tankier will be nice

strong forum
#

On average

sick sentinel
#

just did 13k on a mists

#

its between 11-13 usually

strong forum
#

That does seem okay

sick sentinel
#

not doing anything higher that a 17 atm though so low keys

chrome falcon
#

that's good damage but not worth the survivability hit you're taking

strong forum
#

Yeah lol you shouldn't feel squishy in 17s

sick sentinel
#

yeah exactly

strong forum
#

When you're doing 11-13k dmg

#

That means you have tier / high ilvl

sick sentinel
#

like 17 low enough where heals can just heal through everything

strong forum
#

Or you're running seismic

sick sentinel
#

yeah i'm a fury main so I have gear only started prot this week

4 set and around 265-268 ilvl

strong forum
#

27% crit and 31% haste

chrome falcon
#

literally at its very base level

strong forum
#

We GAMING

chrome falcon
#

all our class is

#

is 1) SB uptime and 2) generate rage spend rage

#

do that and good dps will follow

sick sentinel
#

so basically should aim for 100% SB uptime?

chrome falcon
#

don't look at uptime

#

look at % of hits blocked

sick sentinel
#

since you can charge/intervene if you don't have any natural charges left

chrome falcon
#

no point having SB uptime while the boss is doing a 5 second channel

#

you're never getting 100% uptime

sick sentinel
#

oh right yeah you can time it with the auto attacks from trash right?

strong forum
#

With proper reprisal play you should be able to get 80-85% of blocked hits pretty comfortably

sick sentinel
#

ah ok

chrome falcon
#

no don't try to time it on their swing timer or anything

#

that would be insane

#

just don't cast it if the mob is already casting

sick sentinel
#

ah ok

chrome falcon
#

like third boss SD for example

sick sentinel
#

yeah thats a great example

chrome falcon
#

you don't need to SB while she's channeling the aoe

sick sentinel

exactly!

(but it will make you do more dps so y'know you can if you want)
