cause healer didnt get in the circle
How you doing 18’s and not knowing basic mechanics
Also they have fucking tremor totem a easy reset to the fear
everyone but healer and I died in the last mob room in HoA cause I called "please stand behind the wall so we dont get hit by explosives" and everyone padded on the tormented souls
and subsequently died
Last boss we had 3 deaths to people not soaking the lines
meanwhile I did 2 and self healed them both and was marked so people could see them
There you go
How the fuck do I get my DPS to actually do trash correctly?
I'm just getting flatlined by these +20 wicked bolts in an HOA
you make friends
Apparently. Literally half of my damage intake is from Wicked Bolts, the rest is piecemeal chip damage from the rest of the mobs.
I just run double defensive trinkets and hope for the best
feels...
In DoS I almost got 100 to 0'd by a shadowcore
one hit me for 105k.
like...
that is almost 90% of my hp...
Shadow core one shots every tank
my brain hurts from the key i just did
Literally the only thing you can do is kick it yourself
Paladin healer doing 8.5K HPS
not getting explosives
No kicks
I'm screaming
I can't even anymore
Tbf
Paladin HATES explosives
HPS means nothing.
Unless people are dying. 😂
Which seems they were.
Don't do any keys higher than what you can solo carry.
Easy life.

I dunno man, doing as much as, less than, or slightly more than a PWarr in HPS feels scuffed as all fuck in a +20
It seems like 65% of the healers I get paired with never run with anything but the most meta tank specs and then the other 35% actually know how to heal.

Doesn't paladin have a filler
So how they work
Is judgement 10ish holy shock at like 6
Ans then CS in melee every 10 but 2 charges
So they dont have a no CD filler
At all
Oh gross why would anyone bring paladin on Explosives.
You can run a Talent for anything 15 (?) second ping effect
But that's not good either
Pala explo week kinda miserable

but bless his soul
Gj from the fury tho
What is that? 15?
+19
Nice incap totems (?)
HPS is honestly..a useless metric.
Why would you care about HPS if no one is dying?
What if all the damage is avoidable and people are just stupid and standing/getting hit by it, not dealing with explosives etc.
"Oh, but the healer did less healing than the tank.." - only is a problem if people were actually dying to the damage intake.
Because people are dying and I'm outhealing my healer on a double pull.
For the... nth time.
Yes, i get that your key got scuffed and already agreed with you on that.
But the general condensus of "oh, tank outhealed healer, shit healer" is..dumb.
Except it's very much the case here. Like, you can see the overall and the HPS and realize that the guy isn't performing on the same level as other healers.
My friend is top 10 shaman on realm, he literally does the minimum healing needed to live
And spends the rest of the time doing dam
Perfect shamn
^
That's what my groups healer did as well.
I was outhealing him most of the time.
🤷
Problem I have is healers thinking they're good enough to do that and they basically just INT so they can do mediocre DPS
Regardless..in your case it seemed your whole group was shit since explosives going off and people dying to damage intake etc.
this is true tho....
you shoudlnt have to worry about an explosive
Put a ring on em
WTB holy priest.
unless u pull big then heroic throw /charge/dont shield slam
your healer is shit
its a pug but
It was just basic doubles and singles from HOA
your a better tank after a pug
I just want my Hpriest she's tied up with school atm.
She's freakishly reliable.
Even before Hpriest was imba
i may have miss read that
Well ellesmere does but that's different categories of healers here
Wonderful
If we don't have any DPS with a good chip on their shoulder she just PIs me as well
Last time we ran a key we just cruised through a 19s and 20s.
Phys buff and AOE
and to pop explosives I guess
Range DPS is a snoozefest i enjoy.
Melee DPS i have to think about frontals and crap, cba.
Jeah.
As ranged i just stand still and press random buttons.
And then get slightly annoyed when i have to move a bit and not be able to finish my cast.
But i guess playing BM would fix that.
some fellow necro bois here can tell me what avergage uptime do they have on banner in keys ?
80%+
Ranged dps has legit the easiest job in terms of paying attention and not dying
damn
And yeah banner should be 80%+ in keys
85-95%
u play full haste ?
Always
As you're supposed to, yes
Ilvl>>haste>>
But tier + reprisal alone should net you very high banner uptime
i have 35 haste rn
Even if you have low haste like 20%
aight aight interesting
u have more than me
do you go always for SS outburst even on aoe for the rage gene ?
yes
aight that sould be my issue then
probably not your only 1
ye
Is it on details you look banner uptime now
well yer that only tracks stuff in combat
who cares about having banner up when moving
Yeah thats what im thinking
Playing prot war for fun as an alt on low keys. Has anything changed from 9.1? Cov / leggo / talents?
How do you reach 80% banner uptime? Do you never skip anything?
I loose a lot cause of skipping shit or waiting 10 sec for patrol timing for some stuff

I get like 50 to 60 %¶uptime on banner with 2px
The avatar CD reduction feels very nice
Can pop 2-3 avatar with the banner👀
More speed🤣
Whats the Banner buff Range?
15y iirc
Once the buff is applied it doesn't matter anymore the buff doesn't update to different targets
I'm at 60%
It's rlly hard to mantain the uptime in keys
Depends on the key.
Don't take the 80% as a default for everything.
Too many variables.
But if you play well and pull efficiently it shouldn't be too hard.
As long as i got banner up for the packs i wanna have it up for then im happy
This is how I feel now more than trying to keep it up the entire dungeon. Most of the time its up from one pull to the other.
Ye
I'd recommend using last stand offensively. I started doing alot better with uptime when I started hitting it with banner to get a bunch of initial rage spent.
what is this banner guys?
ugh i get 4p today
necrolord ability
is it better than sob?
NL is fantastic
Feeds the rage cycle
not very much but i have something i guess
the king is back
It's been a blast to play
oh damn i have been using sob all the time
also need freaking gold for second legendary which im too lazy to harvest lol
Play it this upcoming week in m+, you won't need a healer unless the affixes suck
yeah will do that xd
Priest says give me 2 sec, too late already pulled next pack. Gotta keep that banner up.
Places like spires screws you flying platforms. Also with reprisal much easier to keep banner vs playing seismic. I like to use last stand in execute. But sometimes I gotta use it if I'm struggling and about to lose banner.
what the affixes supposed to be this week?
Bursting Volcanic
lmao
It's the Tyrannical push week.
I dont particularly like bursting
But since priests are meta its better
Bursting still limits big pulls with similarly healthed mobs
Cus dps doesnt really care
"stack up" I say "so the jumpy bastards don't go everywhere"
DPS: spreads out as far as possible
big chest angle
ye
what stats does tier chest give?
oh yea u crafted unity on cloak 
Erga where do you have unity?
Mines on bracers currently just because of the 3 specs and it was lowest piece I had and gave socket
Was just curious
was because i need it for Arms also 🤦
and as Arms i alrdy have 291 belt
head
makes sense
i couldnt make it on head as it was 1 of my tier pieces at the time
and i have 278 tier head
Yeah im in a similar boat until i get some nice bracers, different tier, and gold
I have like... 4 Unity
I have stock belt. Rep grind too strong
i'm not in yet but im 2/4set LFR
did all the bosses so i have a full vault for that, 252 beats anything i have ATM
Be sure not to open character sheet on twitch then 
I have an entire workday before my vault if dissapointment.
Do what I do and leave when you want
I've been posting on the warrior discord during company time a lot.
Transferring 11000 gallons of diesel through a two inch hose today
Leads to lots of standing around.
Gotta have a catch incase the gasket in the connection leaks.
i saw a video of some idiot at the gas station with his truck bed with blue tarps lining the bottom of it and hes sitting there filling it with gas cuz he wants to take it home i guess
goes pretty much how you expect, leaks out and empties when he takes a turn
11000 gallons😆
Gonna take a while
Started at 6:30 this morning. Been at it for 2 hours
Give us shield with attack power like in diablo👀
i has a sack
But I'm so down bad on tier that I'm about to catalyst a world boss helmet
okay boys, LFR vault of shame time
Gl yogger
woo a socket from vault 
Another week of no upgrades and picking tokens kekw
i got the damn bells trinket on both my main characters
what kind of stats % do u guys have?
Yeah reprisal is on boots now.
Unity goes on helm if you can have tier on other slots.
thanks
Stupid auto correct
I have 4/5, no hands. Guess I'll creation catalyst hands and throw unity on helm ...
Vault offering me 278 back, waist or shoulders - and I have 272 tier shoulders. Humbug
doesnt matter, focus on getting ilvl, then fellow haste>>vers>=crit>mastery for equal ilvl stuff
i've got legs and shoulder lfr
time to roll on some mythic + then
If you're a bear, sure
Nice.
How goes MDI?
Fine
Kinda easy tbh.
I just walk in and spam revenge and the casters are like "DID YOU SEE THAT?!?!? DID YOU SEE WHAT HE DID?!?!?!? HE PRESSED THUNDER CLAP!"
lol
THUNDERCLAP
Btw did u see the naowh tweet
He said casting was bad and they had no clue what's going on
And then deleted it later
Nah, do you have any screen of the tweet ?
you playing mdi?
Ha
which team
Vault has both wep and shield at 278. Take shield yes?
well it came of pretty harsg
saying they had no clue
but he had points
for example the pov is bad this time round
So we all like drama xD
Ya, that's why i made my sick Revenge/Thunder CLap joke above but it went over everyone. 😦

no laugh
did you make ur pfp elon musk and say some bs
a hearthstone tournament player got their account suspended for that 
unlucky
I totally got it first time around 
Yea, shield is the most important slot
Help me choose 278 soleah vs 265 shield. Currently have 252 elegy and 246 overwhelming power crystal and a 252 shield.
i have him blocked on my main so odds are my account is getting deleted
shield all day without a second thought
Do you raid heroic
I'd take soleahs if you do heroic personally
You can get a 265 shield off of a +15 and 1 upgrade
I disagree personally but it's up to you
What's the rationale behind lego on head? Thought we prioritized haste/vers
erga stealing the words out of my mouth 😡
k, so what do i do about changing rep legs to boots, can i uncraft at torghast and use 291 and missives or do i need anything else like quests
i think you just need flux yoge but im not sure
If you scrap it you get the mats back
can't convert the piece or something eh
right, i thought i heard something like you need to get the 262 and then take it to zm with the 291 piece
if i can just go and DE and then craft same sitting, (have all the mats cuz de is 100% refund +2k flux)
not yet no, i only come back last night got LFR done
its 3k flux for 5500 ash and 1650 cinders
also remember to do your weekly to get revered
Can we run a 30 man protection roster on normal ?
haste versa still generally speaking? or crit?
same as always
im guessin haste versa
haste vers is fine on legendary yeah
I have 34% haste but i think it is too much. Maybe go for critical
There is no such thing as "too much Haste"
But going a bit critical can be good, for free revenge
no matter how much crit you have it's still 3rppm for a free revenge
I mean for some extra damage as well.
Just equip your highest Haste gear and let the rest of the secondaries fall where they will
hi just wanted to ask if its possible/viable to tank as kyrian in m+ or if i'm trolling when i dont go necrolord
hmm, this ring would be a big ilvl upgrade but would drop haste, vs. zapping this chest for 6 ilvls and avoidance
Total viable, you can hold aggro with spear.
Kyrian is fine; higher burst damage, and somewhat easier to play optimally
Necro is better on coordinated grps.
I see. Thanks. Was thinking of picking up some warrior tanking
Less damage for you, more damage overall.
necro better full stop imo
Even NF is viable, for the extra interupts
necro does more on its own
youre not using NL for others anyway 🤷♂️
I know, but still 400 mastery is 400 mastery.
doesnt really matter
besides, if you play NL correctly it's equal, if not more dps than kyrian
not holding it for a dps
The bursty of kyrian cant be reached with NL even with 30% increase in strength
Also, I like NF too.
yes it can
There is a lot to be said for the Kyrian big hit of damage/aggro right at the start of a pull
necro is so much rage
so many more revenges
more rage more am more outburst more rage more banner
and then it loops
sure NL doesnt burst as much as kyrian right as spear drops, but you always have banner, you dont always have spear
Exactly
besides, NL makes me invincible, no way im giving that up
With NL, you have to line up your banner with their cds. Which means somewhat annoying situations when you need survivability and you want to hold it.
no
Spear only last 8 seconds or so
While banner is up for the entire pack/boss
?
you never save banner for others
banner you just always have
Banner is not like kindred spirits, kek
it is good to buff your dps at the right time if you can, but you just do it on pull, which is when everyone will be popping CDs anyway
you don't need to overthink it
But still, a friend of mine plays frost dk. I see a 5-10% increase due to my banner.
I use omnicd for that.
Well my premade grp is a frost dk and mm hunter. Which both of their cds are 2 min cd
check what sense is doing
theyre playing nl seismic in pugs
its not about their buff
its about what we get
A link?
sry what ? I didn't understand
sense is our beloved prot god
im sayin if ur running the full damage build for low keys
they are using necro
which should be indicative
that necro is more damage than kyr
ah yeh seismic is the revenge legendary right ?
ye
seems actually decent damage wise in low keys at least
Did 19 mists with seismic 11.6 overall. Not all that high but squishy at times. Even feels squishy on lower keys than that. But quite a bit higher dps than reprisal.
Some burst on trash packs with lust hitting 40 k spamming Reve ge
In a dos
I don't understand, why he has like 58% mastery? Mine is at 19%
probably had banner up
Thats low for seismic damage
What numbers are people pulling in upper teen keys?
Warlock and dh only pulled 12k that key and surv hunter 16k
based as fuck
And just do middle
right gang
they don't know the hidden tech
left 
we need routes added to mplus.subcreation
What are the affixes this week?
i don't like that top message
Oh sorry the context
Was someone got a 278 Sack with speed
And I was playin
Mb mb that looked rocky without context
even with context it is not something you should throw around
grim codex is still shit for us corect right lol
Always was
it drop for someone else pally wants it tho i wont gt it
And always will be unless it gets buffed
I'm curious how people are hitting mid teens in mists. Maybe if you also have baller dps, but keeping banner up through maze is a pain.
get the chinese mists hack
i got the top 0 ring
Pull ontop of bosses
and some key, dunno yet
Now my favourite sentence
i mean ive hit 12.7k in mists with rep without pulling onto bosses 🤷
If I can hit 10k dps in mists with 255 2pc and reprisal, you surely can do alot better with seismic and more gear

i'm 2 piece lfr kyrian 249
I feel like I sound like a broken record
But I feel like it's a good uuuh sign? For the lack of a better word, for people in here
To get an idea what is absolutely doable with an average group and normal pulls
Yeah I mean that’s valid
Also sorry m8
Wo skip direct to the bar
if your healer knows what they're doing the maze literally doesn't exist
with a competent healer (and as long as you don't need take a bunch of damage to distract them) the maze walls are not a mechanic
Well last run healer wasn't doing the maze, so there was a delay. Kinda surprised we timed it given the lock was no tier 1400 rated and dh hadn't even done a 15 mists. But even with immediately going through on other runs I'd guess dropping banner would happen a bit.
I only had 60% log uptime on the banner and the healer never did the maze in my key
Wasn't really that good of a run, the healer even died on the last double pack pull so I had to solo it cuz nobody activated the 2nd checkpoint 
If your dps are absolute dogs that is going to impact your dps but still
isnt it like
damage taken?
idk if it counts for mitigation or not
prob not since bdks use it
no
you're thinking of the good codex from streets
grim codex is the bad codex from top
Hook is the best trinket
It's solid dps to say the least
Lol really?
Solid as in
Unvaried
Just use it on CD on a prio target, 252 hook did 170 dps
When 252 phial did 250 dps
So it's not ultra omega bad
233 phial does fuckall dmg now
Anyone got a solution to keep banner in the open pull of a raid boss? Mine always falls off during the start of a pull.
Why do u pop it b4 pull?
I dont
Lots of buffs get removed when you enter boss combat to prevent buff stacking/cheesing
Well clearly you do.
That's the only way banner gets removed on pull
Cause the start of a pull is when u have the most rage from using LS + Avatar + DS
Yeah i know, just got back on my warrior
Havent played since 9.1
Which is so annoying
Instead of buffing God awful shit trinkets
They nerf the only good ones
ToP is so satisfying to run as Prot, u take almost 0 dmg the entire run
And u have that sweet bonus at the last boss
The moment that you could spell reflect sythe, make this dungeon lime a piece of cake.
what is most fun melee dps spec in your guys opinion
Fury is up there
Even worse when its a 223 , not 233 haha
Enha shaman
the pally in my group asked to get the codex, one of the 2 shamans got it
enha shaman cuz it buffs Pwar bigly
enh shaman is def one of the funnest, but pugging as a dps sucks
i like outlaw rogue and survival hunter
got those bracers
what is this special effect? lol
i mean in pvp just trinket disarm and go
if you are dps on first boss of Streets

only place it applies
but will you stand on the guy and bare fist him
xD
well melee is still a decent chunk of our dmg so its actually a decent buff
is belt a good craft for unity? like even after you get revered
im not even sure lol
i think it's considered a pacify
there's things you can press while disarmed that don't work there
it's a pacify
belt is ok, helm is bis, if you only want to craft one ever i'd just take the free belt and wait til you have 4pc in all four sockets except helm
realistically speaking, i think if i got 4pc normal that would be about highest i'd expect
yogi doesnt do 15s
15s with a decent group are pretty chill. 15s with pugs not so much
just to be clear those bracers don't even prevent the disarm
it just increases how much damage your fists do lol
I'd rather pug 20s than pug 15s
wait its only while disarmed you have the effect?
melee = weapons
disarm no weapons
i thought you kept the buff after the disarm
nope lol
It's literally you punching harder
and as far as I know it barely works even then.
My route is colored. What the group I just joined in a +19 is what they body pulled
After I literally told them
"it is not fortified so we aren't shrouding"
why do people not listen
easy fix for you
yea
then people die
and cry and complain
and leave
the trash isnt even that fucking hard
that literally never happens
yea, and then idiots body pull again
and wipe
Pugs are stupid and I dont trust them
why is the seeing red tracker not working ? anyone having the WA and it's not working ?
works for me : (
what are the load conditions
spec > prot war
is that all?
yup
is it using aura name or ID
I'm using this one https://wago.io/7R32j1O83
and it doesn't work
tbh, I honestly think encrypted is the worst +10 affix in SL
sec i'll see
Pride and tormented were so much better
wrong
pride a bit restrictive
rather have pride than all this dumb shit was wo skips and crap having 11000 different routes for each dungeon that each person thinks is "best"
If your game isn't in english the w-a doesn't work
oh
that's what i assumed
you've to change the name of the aura in trigger section
when i asked for name or ID
364006 - Seeing Red
364010 - Outburst
Fixed it, thx


that buff stays up a long time
Yeah pride was annoying had to do everything a specific way it seemed.
Do something different and group flipping out.
I made a better one that cocks a shotgun when outburst is ready and gunshot when you use it
so good
delicious
You are the tank, you are the boss.
It's the back seat tanks, man. In one Sanguine Depths I grabbed the room of little gargoyles to drag them ahead to the next anima cage, and a mage ran up to pull the following room of casters at the same time.
I've never had the confidence to just abandon a run in the face of bad behavior but I was tempted.
I do all the time
idc, if you aren't going to listen to me I don't give a shit about your key
the people with the attitude you are the tank, so it is up to you. It is funny how I always time keys with those people
Its like people, dont let me handle you, if you are sincere about your path and intentions of not following your lead, people usually shut up. You have the most active role in m+. Use it to your advantage.
bring it on, shotgun = YES
Also, if people ask for bigger pulls, usually reply this, " Do you think I am confident enough with your skill to interrupt/stun the necessary adds. You are just a pug like all others". They usually shut up.
Dude this sounds sic I’d like to figure that out
You have to be authorative but not abusive with your group. You have to find the balance there
3 people with ~12k DPS seems like it'd clear a +20 fairly nicely.
That was a +18 SD I think
Those numbers should all be 18-20k
It depends on tank pulls too, but as I told you cant be confident with pugs.
For example, If I can get 10k overall in a 15sd as Prot the dps should be doing double in that same key
Well
Those 3 dps specifically in his screen
I had one key last night that I almost cried
cause the healer and one dps were interrupting
ccing
getting explosives
and doing dmg
no joke
almost cried
I use the 3 cc ALL the time, people forget that freezing traps and bursting shot is cc too.
Racial as tauren, intimidating shout, shockwave
So I know you always want to use Outburst on Shield Slam if you can help it, but how long should you wait to press it? I’ve had a couple times where I had to wait like 2-3 globals and at that point it feels like it’s not worth it
I even scold my own premade to use more their cc
The hunter of my group finally understood this.
Now the time is for dk, but I dont know what cc he has.
Right or wrong I will wait or press revenge whatever is available first, depending on the situation you could toss in other globals like a stun or interven or charge weave or something
legit aint hard to interrupt since it isnt on gcd
TC on outburst is bad since, you get so much rage for revenge, it isn't worth
You never want to press TC when outburst is active and when it’s not you basically prioritize TC last
Am I an asshole in m+ groups? Because I am authorative?
nope
No way
I scold a 19 gambit that they should stun totems. They disnt and waste like 4 minutes doing murlocs.
Groups should follow your lead as tank
We failed the timer by 2 min. I hope they learn their lesson
The hunter in my guild group took a whole season of nagging to get him to use his knock back on sanguine weeks, ugh
The best part is, after I scold them, calling them morons, the retri paladin answer was "Just move on".
I typically just adjust my own play the best I can to the skill level of the group I joined if I notice the other members not really assisting with cc I’ll try to focus using mine more effectively
calling your team, that you have to play with for another 20 mins to time the key, morons
is not "scolding"
it's just being a dick
My hunter already knew it.
But, I show them their wrongdoing.
good for you man
i hope that comforts you when you fail the timer
because you're spending time flaming them
"just move on" is exactly the correct thing to say to someone raging mid-key
Pointing out poor play and suggesting a solution is acceptable imo. Being a straight up dick isn’t going to help you out really
It is true that I got a bit of tilted. But explaining a mechanic. It is like doing the platform on first boss and not knowing the mechanics.
We as Prot War can really carry a key with our toolkit
why?
Its like this, there are adds in gambit that, the use super saion. And then they use Haymaker which attacks the nearest melee if tank isnt in range. I mean what I am suppose to do with raging 100% more damage and 50% more damage from the two enrages? And I saw a dk die? Shall I die?
block 
Fortified plus raging plus enrage. It feels so good.
even double enraged this week the haymaker only tickles
Are u doing +10s?
Me?
@lofty widget
you just press shield wall and shield block and it's fine until you get HIGH hig
your alternative is killing your melee so
Someone has to die. Kewk
26 this week 🙂
my man chimmi BLASTING
Wouldnt it better if someone interrupts their cast?
I know, but I really cant do everything. I cant babysit 4 people.
If I could I would have 10 hands just in case.
jailer necklace from the weekly
Imagine Kelthuzad's mace and jailor's mace in fury.
Haha, sounds like there was a little bit of Cranky Tanky
Hey, do you guys know how long I should expect to keep my Necrolord banner ability rolling with Unity and a fresh set of 230ish crap gear? I saw that Sense was pulling 80% uptime, but it looks like the best I can do so far is ~35 seconds with no tier gear so far
I'm guessing it's kinda like the old Surrender to Madness, where the better you play the longer you can keep it up
I mean part of m+ is calling things as a tank tbh
Your group is often just not going to do what you need them to so you need to be able to communicate and organize interrupts
Tier makes a huge difference
35 seconds is really low even for that gear, for context i was managing 1:15 as my absolute max in 9.1
and that was with obviously on tier and only 1 legendary
You can sustain probably around 50 seconds to a minute normally
That’s what I was doing in SoD
Thats what I figured, I'm guessing that I'm hitting the buttons laughably wrong and this'll be a good way to get a benchmark for how wrong
Thanks guys!
Its a bit tough without tier
press more slams and more revenge
That's pretty wild, so do your three best friends just get a free 400 mastery for the whole fight too?
ohh, okay
i did 3/7 story so far more towards 4, do i have to do all 7 to get unity or how far
yes
okay, and then in all likely-hood just craft it in belt haste versa and i just redo the belt slots that i previously crafted
You need rep to recraft
revered iirc
I already crafted 278 tier legs
this vault makes me sad
these have speed my current ones have avoidence so its not even helpful from the tertiary standpoint.
This 4 tier set bonus is ridiculous. So fucking good.
some assistance would be appreciated
I currently have a 265 weapon
and my shoulders are 259 M+
I have not used the catalyst yet this week
shoulders if you don't have 4piece yet
I have 4pc
Get 2k io and you can up your 259 shoulders to 272. No brainer if you’re close
but yeah what slyver said you can just valour your 259 shoulders to 272 then catalyst those
same is true for the weapon though but that's more valour
i thought 272 was max
yeah it is, the weap I have is from heroic so no upgrade path on that
What’s your m+ score?
1461 at the moment
been busy with a raiding and a bunch of other suff last couple weeks
getting like a 15 (sometimes scuffed) weekly
Bit of a push week so I’d take vault wep and hit up M+. If your current tier shoulders are 259 M+ you should be able to upgrade them to 262 or 265 now for Valor then 268 at 1700 then 272 at 2000
Is using unity on the back ok?
I know its reccomended on head but no 291 on sale
it's the literal worst slot to put it in
belt or head
you only get to wear 2 291 pieces
291 pieces have the most stats
cloak has the lowest stat budget so it's the worst slot
got it
about to move my unity to helm once I get tier shoulders catalyzed since i'll have 5pc avaiable
I have the 4 piece and can freely move it from belt to helm, just need someone selling a helm
wait then. no sense in wasting
Could try asking for crafter in trade chat. Byo mats
sinful or celestial on wep?
I normally run sinful
Thanks for letting me know I'll update it to use the AuraID instead of the Name
it gave me a 2 NW i checked, don't think that will get done maybe
dh in wc3 was cool, i'll get unity by friday 100%
Sigh, still wasting too much rage in dungeons
As a dungeon only guy now I have to clean that up.
yeah ignore pain casts just way too low
you're generating well just gotta spend it
I'm in awe of the damage taken from the BDK
BDK is cartoons that get their faces flattened and just put their thumb in their mouth and blow to unflatten.
For my own reference, is it resources > rage > and then gained/wasted?
You have a cast number I should be looking for when it comes to ignore pain in dungeons? I never really felt in danger that entire dungeon until the final boss where everything seemed to go wrong.
Enough that you stop wasting 1.5k rage?
yeah, if you select your individual character you can look at how much you waste/gain from each source
Ignore pain isn’t mitigation
It’s a button that says “reduces the CD of avatar by 3.5 seconds, gives 1 stack of seeing red, heals you for 3.5% of your max hp”
Yeah, I was spamming it a lot I thought.
You’re wasting 400 rage from reprisal which means you’re charge weaving WHILE CAPPED which is bad
You have 60 cpm
That’s 20 too low
You need to mash way more ignore pains
Especially during last stand
I changed my keybind placement and that helped some. Guess my next thing is to make my rage bar more noticeable.
As an example
On our most recent lihuvim kill
I pressed ignore pain 7 times in the first 15 seconds
And I STILL overcapped
That’s what you need to be doing during your high rage periods with last stand, avatar, ravager
I would definitely say, those high rage periods I'm not keeping up looking at the timeline for rage and abilities used.
You don’t need to pay attention to your actual bar when you know the numbers
Charge generates 40 rage so if you’re gojng to charge and you can afford to IP, just IP first
Avatar into SS is 75 rage so you normally want to spend the avatar rage on an IP before the SS
Unless that procs outburst obviously
Think less IP more
If you spend time thinking about it you’re going to waste rage and that’s worse than maybe IPing too hard and having to swap a revenge for a TC
Good, thought thanks.
I'm doing better than a couple weeks ago where i was wasting like 3k rage in dungeons so I am improving. Just need to keep slapping dungeons and cleaning up play.
I personally have a hard time getting the opener with 4p and booming voice to feel good
I'm supposed to ravager > charge/avatar/banner > demo > SS > revenge > clap right? But I just feel like it's too many globals when I need the snap agro
All while mashing IP
When I'm grabbing snap agro right now i ravager>charge>Banner>Avatar>blow as much into revenge as possible while slapping ignore pain
I use the innitial rage generation from pull on revenge and it helps a lot
Should I skip the SS for a couple globals?
then i go into normal play
I don’t use the DS as my first global on mobs ever
Unless it’s paired with challenging
Keep in mind I'm only doing 17s and stuff at this time but because ss hits one target and dps dont know how to chill a few seconds i hold ss for a global or two.
idealy you should never hold it
I revenge first because a full CD revenge is going to secure all threat
But if I trust dps I’ll SS first because that is optimal
So, yeah Mattacate confirms that pugs hit that revenge before SS in a built group you trust be optimal.
If you spend THREE GLOBALS on banner, DS and SS on a pack
Your dps are dead as fuck
You would need to cover that with challenging shout to have any hope
DPS have no idea how to be chill.
Dps shouldn’t have to wait for you to play with yourself for 3 globals on the pull
There’s a timer to beat
Making challenging shout your friend for when they do grab something off you is super handy.
For example that gambit i did the murloc pats that came running in was one of the times I hit challenging shout.
Not a lot of guilds are on mythic jailer, don't be too hard on yourself
:kekw: you think its M
Oh...well this is awkward
Yeah, we got some rough DPS in my group so a lot of bosses are a lot harder than they need to be by proxy of fight length.
More mechanics, longer phases, more chances of fatal errors.
I ended our first H LOD kill at 4th w/13.5K
Don't judge me for my shitty LOD damage.
Well, at least you made it there. I'll be curious to see how my guild manages without me this week.
Hey Thanks for reporting this - it's now fixed
From all the 5 tier pieces which one is the least desired one in term of stats? I thought it was legs but I guess its hands?
anything without haste is lower prio
Hands only gives crit/mast and legs a lot of crit and too little haste but I guess is still better than it?
Ultimately you want unity on helm max stats plus free socket.
Then you want the other 4 pieces of tier.
But the helm already gives good stats, also I have unity on belt so it has socket as well
you should be using legs/chest/hands/shoulders. Helm is for 291 socket Unity
Stat prio doesn't matter. More stats > better stats.
At least not here, not unless you have a few different Unities and can achieve an idea configuration with some whacky variance in ilvl. BIS is the above.
Helm gives considerably more stats with socket. All other tier can be obtained at 285 if you mythic raid
ok i see is it also because rings dont give main stat?
Rings lacking primary stats makes them lower on value. Yes.
ok makes sense
Helm chest and legs have huge Stat value. Ultimately when you start comparing a 291 unity helm is most possible stats
gotcha makes sense thanks
Your welcome. All information absorbed by spending time in this channel. Hahaha
lol ive been kinda out of the channel too much
Only shoulders and chest tho
Can creation catalyst rygalon gloves.
Meaning higher ilvl tier.
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/7vgTCV6nDAqk8L1G#fight=8&type=damage-done
Noice, 99% for my iLVL
gamer
for vault: 265ilvl The First Sigil or 2781h wep?
youll want wep of those
There's legs from Jailer also iirc
even if off spec is tanking, and main is fury, and that's bis?
I knew legs where there somewhere just couldn't remember.
Single minded fury is a thing.
maybe worth waiting to rekill pantheon just to be sure
Look at details to get an idea of how often you have it up in combat. The most important metric
If you scroll fast one can easily mistake your pfp for the KFC logo
🐔
Yeah i do that
vault soon
interesting that it looks like this after NA reset and before EU reset:
it usually evens out a bit during the week
do NA dislike pwar more than EU? 🤔
for example, in the statistics they have they only got n = 18 for pwarrs
so there's only 18 runs
of those 18 how many are from the same prot warr?
The problem with sub creation in keys is that they have to upload logs for it to count
I got my 4pc today, on SoA 21 my healer died on the first orb spawn and I was able to tank the boss alone, the tier makes me feel unkillable rn, barely need to use SW
on the first boss
I'm actually very excited, pwar is super fun, it was very bad on S1 and I went bear S2
it wasnt bad in S1 at all
i agree. even if its not considered top tier i feel its the most fun tank for me to play 🙂
can we get valor cap removal plx
I pushed with a discp the whole s1, it was...interesting
but originally we had less armor while dh was bugged
hey gus i have 2 set at the moment: i can pick 278 shoulder and make it into a set piece or take a 278 shield in the vault. (both are 262 equipped atm) , any advices? (i am not raiding hc or myth at the moment, so i wont get high set items from there)
Animafieldemitter or 278 chest, got 272 chest and heroic ows, mythic aegis, phial, sack and scale already
I would say upgrade chest, right?
I would take the chest and throw it in the converter, yes. Unless I was drastically short of Haste
What's your current Haste, and what ring will you be replacing?
you will replace the 265 one
current haste is 30%, will replace a haste verse ring at 246
Yeah, I agree with Jakey, take the 278
Pulled a 278 Stitchflesh Signet out of the vault today myself. That's another slot I never have to worry about again
ez
i got bracers
because the vault keeps giving me the same pieces of loot
and not a shield

Saviour isn't bad
compared to something with stats at the same ilvl its worse
literally any other 278 shield is better
🤔
Hey, do you guys know how Renewal on Pantheon starts her animastorms? in front of her, or to the side?
We are currently keeping her facing away from the raid, but received some complaints from melee saying that they get sniped as soon as the storms spawn
is this any good?
the other shield is better
already have it :))
the vault likes to give me copies
i guess iqd or tokens for me
Id take tokens
thanks mate!
