Did y’all die

sacred timber
#

every damn keyt

#

yea we wiped to first boss

urban portal
#

It’s the warrior

#

He’s bad

sacred timber
#

cause healer didnt get in the circle

ruby locust
#

How you doing 18’s and not knowing basic mechanics

#

Also they have fucking tremor totem a easy reset to the fear

sacred timber
#

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

urban portal
#

There you go

cinder nova
#

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

crude notch
#

you make friends

cinder nova
#

Apparently. Literally half of my damage intake is from Wicked Bolts, the rest is piecemeal chip damage from the rest of the mobs.

urban portal
#

I just run double defensive trinkets and hope for the best

sacred timber
#

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...

urban portal
#

Shadow core one shots every tank

ruby locust
#

my brain hurts from the key i just did

urban portal
#

Literally the only thing you can do is kick it yourself

ionic fern
#

Yeah, just save your kick for it.

#

And SR.

#

Never trust randoms.

cinder nova
#

Paladin healer doing 8.5K HPS

#

not getting explosives

#

No kicks

#

I'm screaming

#

I can't even anymore

dawn canyon
#

Tbf

dawn canyon
#

Paladin HATES explosives

cinder nova
#

We finished and they blamed me.

#

I don't even know what to do anymore.

ionic fern
#

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.

cinder nova
#

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.

dawn canyon
#

Hps isnt really a good metric

#

Also explosives hard tank pala healing

sacred timber
#

I did it

#

I finally timed something this week

dawn canyon
cinder nova
#

Doesn't paladin have a filler

dawn canyon
#

So how they work

sacred timber
#

:3

dawn canyon
#

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

sacred timber
#

oh... wait

#

I see why we timed it

cinder nova
#

Oh gross why would anyone bring paladin on Explosives.

sacred timber
#

MFin fury warrior doing 17k....

dawn canyon
#

You can run a Talent for anything 15 (?) second ping effect

#

But that's not good either

#

Pala explo week kinda miserable

sacred timber
dawn canyon
#

Man suffered for that

#

I can tell you that

sacred timber
#

but bless his soul

dawn canyon
#

Gj from the fury tho

cinder nova
sacred timber
#

+19

cinder nova
#

Yeah nah my Hpal has no excuse

#

He did less than 30

#

The entire HOA

sacred timber
#

I was too busy making sure I didn't get whacked by bolts

dawn canyon
#

Nice incap totems (?)

sacred timber
#

whatever that is

dawn canyon
#

Sundering is an incap dps Button

#

Like 40 sec CD

#

And static is stun totem for sure

ionic fern
#

"Oh, but the healer did less healing than the tank.." - only is a problem if people were actually dying to the damage intake.

cinder nova
#

For the... nth time.

ionic fern
#

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.

cinder nova
#

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.

urban portal
#

My friend is top 10 shaman on realm, he literally does the minimum healing needed to live

ionic fern
#

I literally

#

Agreed with you

#

😂

urban portal
#

And spends the rest of the time doing dam

dawn canyon
#

Perfect shamn

ionic fern
#

That's what my groups healer did as well.

#

I was outhealing him most of the time.

#

🤷

sacred timber
#

How to time keys.

cinder nova
#

Problem I have is healers thinking they're good enough to do that and they basically just INT so they can do mediocre DPS

ionic fern
#

Regardless..in your case it seemed your whole group was shit since explosives going off and people dying to damage intake etc.

urban portal
#

Move on

#

Pug, find a healer u like

#

Go out w them

trim bay
#

you shoudlnt have to worry about an explosive

urban portal
#

Put a ring on em

sacred timber
#

WTB holy priest.

trim bay
#

unless u pull big then heroic throw /charge/dont shield slam

#

your healer is shit

#

its a pug but

cinder nova
#

It was just basic doubles and singles from HOA

trim bay
#

your a better tank after a pug

cinder nova
#

I just want my Hpriest she's tied up with school atm.

#

She's freakishly reliable.

#

Even before Hpriest was imba

trim bay
#

i may have miss read that

sacred timber
#

Sadly the one priest in my guild does like 2.1k dps

#

and it kinda makes me sad

dawn canyon
#

Kyrian hpriest

#

Does so much

cinder nova
#

Mine is actually NF

#

She funnels faeries into me so I can just ava/wall indefinitely

dawn canyon
#

Well ellesmere does but that's different categories of healers here

cinder nova
#

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.

mighty valley
#

good keys healing VDHs

#

why am I even here

cinder nova
#

Phys buff and AOE

mighty valley
#

and to pop explosives I guess

cinder nova
#

Yeah that too

#

How many times did you press palm

mighty valley
#

121 casts of palm

#

12 crackling jade lightning, the only week where it's used

cinder nova
#

Tapping far explosives

#

Hpriest explosives is so easy

#

Just shadow word and forget

jagged pier
#

no dps is the hardest job

#

they tell me all the time

ionic fern
#

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.

errant leaf
#

some fellow necro bois here can tell me what avergage uptime do they have on banner in keys ?

jagged pier
#

80%+

errant leaf
#

am sitting between 35 and 45%

#

uh

strong forum
#

Ranged dps has legit the easiest job in terms of paying attention and not dying

errant leaf
#

damn

strong forum
#

And yeah banner should be 80%+ in keys

lofty widget
#

85-95%

errant leaf
#

u play full haste ?

dawn canyon
#

Always

strong forum
#

As you're supposed to, yes

dawn canyon
#

Ilvl>>haste>>

strong forum
#

But tier + reprisal alone should net you very high banner uptime

errant leaf
#

i have 35 haste rn

strong forum
#

Even if you have low haste like 20%

errant leaf
#

aight aight interesting

jagged pier
#

u have more than me

errant leaf
#

do you go always for SS outburst even on aoe for the rage gene ?

jagged pier
#

yes

errant leaf
#

aight that sould be my issue then

jagged pier
#

probably not your only 1

errant leaf
#

ye

blazing condor
#

Is it on details you look banner uptime now

jagged pier
#

well yer that only tracks stuff in combat

#

who cares about having banner up when moving

blazing condor
#

Yeah thats what im thinking

ionic fern
#

Should probably clarify that first.

#

🙂

jagged girder
#

Playing prot war for fun as an alt on low keys. Has anything changed from 9.1? Cov / leggo / talents?

hard vessel
#

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

hard vessel
#

I get like 50 to 60 %¶uptime on banner with 2px

timber slate
#

The avatar CD reduction feels very nice
Can pop 2-3 avatar with the banner👀

#

Whats the Banner buff Range?

strong forum
#

15y iirc

#

Once the buff is applied it doesn't matter anymore the buff doesn't update to different targets

tropic linden
#

It's rlly hard to mantain the uptime in keys

ionic fern
#

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.

blazing condor
#

As long as i got banner up for the packs i wanna have it up for then im happy

vernal vale
strong forum
#

Ye

odd tree
#

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.

odd tree
#

Play it this upcoming week in m+, you won't need a healer unless the affixes suck

naive panther
#

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.

Bursting Volcanic

short kiln
#

lmao

crude notch
#

It's the Tyrannical push week.

blazing condor
#

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

median tulip

"stack up" I say "so the jumpy bastards don't go everywhere"

im thinking chest mainly

but i guess ill upgrade it to Tier anyway

sweet summit

craggy pilot

what stats does tier chest give?

sweet summit

haste mastery i think?

craggy pilot

oh yea u crafted unity on cloak peepostudy

Erga where do you have unity?

craggy pilot

i couldnt make it on head as it was 1 of my tier pieces at the time

I'd take soleahs if you do heroic personally

#

You can get a 265 shield off of a +15 and 1 upgrade

chrome falcon
#

soleahs is mediocre at best

#

easy shield

civic torrent
#

I disagree personally but it's up to you

sick sentinel
#

What's the rationale behind lego on head? Thought we prioritized haste/vers

sweet summit
#

big stat + free socket

#
  • only tier slot not able to be 285

erga stealing the words out of my mouth 😡

sick sentinel

Ah right if you're raiding

#

and didn't consider the socket

#

thanks

sick sentinel
#

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

wild hemlock
#

i think you just need flux yoge but im not sure

strong forum
#

If you scrap it you get the mats back

sick sentinel
#

can't convert the piece or something eh

strong forum
#

Aka flux ash and cinders

#

But not the item and missives

sick sentinel
#

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)

dawn canyon
#

yogi

#

if ur honored

#

get the bag of explored souls (?)

#

from rep vendor

not yet no, i only come back last night got LFR done

Can we run a 30 man protection roster on normal ?

sick sentinel
#

haste versa still generally speaking? or crit?

sweet summit
#

same as always

sick sentinel
#

im guessin haste versa

mighty valley
#

haste vers is fine on legendary yeah

lyric geode
#

I have 34% haste but i think it is too much. Maybe go for critical

median tulip
#

There is no such thing as "too much Haste"

sick sentinel
#

theres the gear i have, figure its right craft h/v about to do that

lyric geode
#

But going a bit critical can be good, for free revenge

sweet summit
#

no matter how much crit you have it's still 3rppm for a free revenge

lyric geode
#

I mean for some extra damage as well.

median tulip
#

Just equip your highest Haste gear and let the rest of the secondaries fall where they will

dusky silo
#

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

mighty valley
#

hmm, this ring would be a big ilvl upgrade but would drop haste, vs. zapping this chest for 6 ilvls and avoidance

sweet summit
#

kyrian is fine

#

just generally worse

#

doesn't mean it's shit

lyric geode

Necro is better on coordinated grps.

dusky silo
#

I see. Thanks. Was thinking of picking up some warrior tanking

lyric geode
#

Less damage for you, more damage overall.

dawn canyon
#

necro better full stop imo

lyric geode
#

Even NF is viable, for the extra interupts

dawn canyon
lofty widget
#

youre not using NL for others anyway 🤷‍♂️

dawn canyon
#

you dont extend their buff

#

only urs

lyric geode
#

I know, but still 400 mastery is 400 mastery.

dawn canyon
#

doesnt really matter

lofty widget
#

besides, if you play NL correctly it's equal, if not more dps than kyrian

dawn canyon
#

not holding it for a dps

lyric geode
#

Also, I like NF too.

dawn canyon
#

yes it can

median tulip
#

There is a lot to be said for the Kyrian big hit of damage/aggro right at the start of a pull

dawn canyon
#

necro is so much rage

#

so many more revenges

#

more rage more am more outburst more rage more banner

#

and then it loops

lofty widget
#

sure NL doesnt burst as much as kyrian right as spear drops, but you always have banner, you dont always have spear

lofty widget
#

besides, NL makes me invincible, no way im giving that up

lyric geode
#

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.

timber slate
#

Spear only last 8 seconds or so
While banner is up for the entire pack/boss

lyric geode
#

?

lofty widget
#

you never save banner for others

dawn canyon
#

banner you just always have

timber slate
#

Banner is not like kindred spirits, kek

mighty valley
#

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

lyric geode
#

But still, a friend of mine plays frost dk. I see a 5-10% increase due to my banner.

dusky silo
#

Ufff i started a war again

lyric geode
#

Well my premade grp is a frost dk and mm hunter. Which both of their cds are 2 min cd

dawn canyon
#

check what sense is doing

#

theyre playing nl seismic in pugs

#

its not about their buff

#

its about what we get

lyric geode
#

A link?

brittle siren
dawn canyon
#

sense is our beloved prot god

brittle siren
#

sure sure

#

but what about seismic and stuff ?

dawn canyon
#

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

brittle siren
#

ah yeh seismic is the revenge legendary right ?

dawn canyon
#

ye

brittle siren
#

seems actually decent damage wise in low keys at least

mighty valley
#

yeah, our highest damage legendary in keys

#

but absolutely no defensive power, so

brittle siren
#

a "mists" legendary tho

naive panther
#

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

lyric geode
#

I don't understand, why he has like 58% mastery? Mine is at 19%

chrome falcon
#

probably had banner up

naive panther
#

What numbers are people pulling in upper teen keys?

#

Warlock and dh only pulled 12k that key and surv hunter 16k

With seismic you should do way north of 14k dps

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 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

waxen orbit
#

Yeah I mean that’s valid

median tulip
chrome falcon
#

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

naive panther
#

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.

strong forum
#

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 keks

chrome falcon

If your dps are absolute dogs that is going to impact your dps but still

Don't pop it before you enter combat

Why do u pop it b4 pull?

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

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.

sacred timber

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

lyric geode

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.

lyric geode

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.

3 people with ~12k DPS seems like it'd clear a +20 fairly nicely.

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

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.

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

chrome falcon

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

lyric geode

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.

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

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

and that was with obviously on tier and only 1 legendary

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

chrome falcon
#

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

old flame
#

i thought 272 was max

#

yeah it is, the weap I have is from heroic so no upgrade path on that

obtuse monolith
#

What’s your m+ score?

old flame
#

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

obtuse monolith
#

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

sounds good

that was what I was thinking as well

why?

as in why would you

nova rover

I know its reccomended on head but no 291 on sale

chrome falcon

it's the literal worst slot to put it in

old flame
#

belt or head

chrome falcon

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

#

Enough that you stop wasting 1.5k rage?

vernal vale
chrome falcon
#

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”

vernal vale
#

Yeah, I was spamming it a lot I thought.

chrome falcon
#

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

vernal vale
#

I changed my keybind placement and that helped some. Guess my next thing is to make my rage bar more noticeable.

chrome falcon
#

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

vernal vale
#

I would definitely say, those high rage periods I'm not keeping up looking at the timeline for rage and abilities used.

chrome falcon
#

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

vernal vale
#

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.

dark lark
#

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

vernal vale
#

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

dark lark
#

Should I skip the SS for a couple globals?

vernal vale
#

then i go into normal play

chrome falcon
#

I don’t use the DS as my first global on mobs ever

#

Unless it’s paired with challenging

vernal vale
#

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

chrome falcon
#

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

vernal vale
#

So, yeah Mattacate confirms that pugs hit that revenge before SS in a built group you trust be optimal.

chrome falcon
#

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

vernal vale
#

DPS have no idea how to be chill.

chrome falcon
#

Dps shouldn’t have to wait for you to play with yourself for 3 globals on the pull

#

There’s a timer to beat

vernal vale
#

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.

dark lark
#

Oh...well this is awkward

cinder nova

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.

Hands only gives crit/mast and legs a lot of crit and too little haste but I guess is still better than it?
