Are you the guy that streams protection warrior?

#

Also is Plkatv quitted protection warrior?

strong forum
#

he didnt really quit pwar

#

hes just being bullied into playing brew

urban portal
#

1 more day until hall guilds either reroll prot war or play double brew peepo

unique cloak
#

They'll run double brew, most people arent capable of changing their mind about a class

brisk sparrow
#

with reprisal - is it worth to leap out and charge back in - or stun and walk out? seems like a lot of downtime to me and possibly having mobs/bosse reposition at times

ocean yoke
#

you can stun and walk out for a charge without any issue usually, might be wanna careful with leaps to not turn your back to mobs but can do that too

shut summit
oblique garnet
#

but charge leap is also a valid way to do so

brisk sparrow
#

I see, thank you both - when it comse to raidbosses - is it still a thing?

chrome falcon
#

yeah

#

do it when you don't have threat or when the boss is casting some bullshit

oblique garnet
#

^

#

Otherwise entire melee camp will hate you

brisk sparrow
#

thank you very much ๐Ÿ™‚ will have to do that more often then! thought it wasn't really worth to use the globals

#

or maybe the one global if down correctly I guess^^

chrome falcon
#

it's 40 rage, a free revenge and 4 seconds of shield block

#

that's better than any of your globals

oblique garnet
#

doesnt the reprisal revenge also do increased damage

#

or am i misremembering

chrome falcon
#

well it counts for BSC

ocean yoke
#

with bsc

oblique garnet
#

I guess but in raids you probably arent playing bsc

chrome falcon
#

yee

oblique garnet
#

I dont know that much on raid tanking these days

tepid bobcat
#

Managed to work up to my first 20 as prot, wiped on the second boss on NW. Tricky to get agro on all the addโ€™s

brisk sparrow
#

well when you put it that way....it sounds quite a lot better...I didn't put much thought into it, it seems^^

#

thanks for clearing that up!

oblique garnet
#

Np its what we are here for

raven hatch
#

well I won't be doing that again...

chrome falcon
#

i don't even need to click the video to know what this is

#

charge/intervene through the pool during tentacles?

oblique garnet
#

yup

#

The classic

distant crystal
#

you can leap it tho right

mortal pilot
#

can someone point me towards a prot spec/build for just slamming some 15/16 mostly focused on damage

distant crystal
#

kyrian w/ seismic leggo

oblique garnet
#

Necro with seismic

#

Same talents as you play everywhere with ravager

mortal pilot
#

what talents do you run? w/ 4p

#

I dont even know the the standard talents are, it's been ages since I tanked on warrior

raven hatch
#

never been caught out in it before

ocean yoke
raven hatch
#

had to be in my 24 key right

oblique garnet
#

You can play CT or BS its personal preference

ocean yoke
#

yeah i find it hard to quit the move speed bonus in BS

#

fast is best

craggy pilot

also the fact that he has ++12 streets as highest key :<<

so hard to get into keys as DPS lol

just trying to get in a DOS for specific loot, but guess i just need to do my own key 100 times until i get DOS :<

safe thistle
#

would you go aegis/phial or ows/phial for m+

lyric geode
#

as protection?

#

Codex, scale

chrome falcon
#

well he didn't list either of those as possible options

#

and codex scale isn't even a good trinket pair

lyric geode
#

ows/phial

chrome falcon
#

go ows/phial if you're not dying

#

aegis/ows if you are

lyric geode
#

@chrome falcon what is the best trinket pair?

sick sentinel
wooden ivy
#

Seeing a lot of warrior pop up. Are they sleeper OP in m+? ๐Ÿ™‚

timber slate
#

The tentacles are following the rythm of the song lol

sick sentinel
#

if played well yes, not if they are played the way i play

wooden ivy
#

Is banner the reason tho?

chilly brook
#

partially

sick sentinel
#

main offenders would be not using enough buttons and not using shield block bread and butter correct, facing it in correct direction

chilly brook
#

the tldr is that prot was fine

#

always was

#

the combination of banner, double legendary, tier set and the recent buffs just compound together

wooden ivy
#

I see

sick sentinel
#

so, if your pwar tank can hit buttons and face the enemy with SB up, should be good

wooden ivy
#

Plus druid and DK nerfs now

timber slate
#

People prefer wheelchair spec
Thats why they dont play warriors

chilly brook
#

Prot also just never is popular unless it's broken or has something that makes it insanely fun

#

Banner happens to be the latter

#

Also ngl

#

doing 10.4k DPS on Desausage as a tank is hilarious

sick sentinel
#

prot warrior is fantastic if you have a group with comms a night mare in a pug with no comms

orchid garden
#

Prot warrior Is just ultra fun, charging around all the time etc.
Btw your tips helped a lot. I now had several situations with 100% banner uptime for a lot of pulls ๐Ÿ˜Š

sick sentinel
#

like let me tell you, if you get some good ppl in your group at your brain wave level, and then you tell them what you need them to do, its so god damn satisfying

#

cuz, warrior just kinda needs the social element of talking to ppl directing

chrome falcon
#

@chilly brook jailer is giga scary ofc but i'm really looking forward to it on mythic

#

take heirmir soulbind and get 2 execute phases

timber slate
#

i thought Ret pallys sucked

chrome falcon
#

ret does suck

chilly brook
#

Ret actually pumps

#

but that group was poopoo

chrome falcon
#

my ret paladin got rank 1 on something a few nights ago

brave dragon
#

Am I trolling by running sigil/crab trink. I have OPC but it doesn't feel as good. Don't have sack/phial.

chrome falcon
#

and my surv hunter who did like 200 dps more was rank 300

sick sentinel
#

Ret always has been and always will be good spec, people meme on it but its amazing

chilly brook
#

Ret is legit top 10 DPS rn

timber slate
#

Also how do you do good ST dps, guides say to use revenge only when you have a proc?

chrome falcon
#

no

#

honestly never read guys after the launch patch

#

they never get updated so they have super bad info on them

#

just mash revenge

#

literally just mash your buttons

sick sentinel
#

2handed warrior of the light and you call god mode bubble, perfect noob class

timber slate
#

Ok good

chrome falcon
#

SS when you have SS, revenge if you don't, TC if you're super low rage

chilly brook
#

at 95th

chrome falcon
#

@brave dragon both of those trinkets are very bad in m+ but if you don't have alternatives then eh what can you do

chilly brook
#

It just so happens that survival is #3

sick sentinel
#

NEVER EVER SPEND OUTBURST (set bonus) ON TC

chilly brook
#

And the top 4 specs are just so dummy ahead of everything else

sick sentinel
#

only SS outburst, and with SB up for extra dmg and other CD's maybe? avatar demo etc

sick sentinel
#

did we ever see any MDI usage of the engineer ghost busters banish trap, or the purple orb thing that flings enemies around? shame that those items went so unforgotten could have had alot of potential in dungeons if you don't have a warlock and somethings vulnerable to lock banish

#

1st boss PF main one i could think of i'd drop the trap and we'd lust and kill the main boss

dawn canyon
#

In mdi you never shouldnt have a lock

sick sentinel
#

i have an 8 mists in my bags but im refusing to do it atm because i don't feel like looking stupid about not knowing the targets for maze or boss 2

urban portal
#

People use banish

#

Plaguefall

sick sentinel
#

had no clue what i was doing boss 1 gambit, boss 2 i remember but i hate doing that one i need a strategy for the boss is all

median tulip
#

The 2nd boss is easier because you can see all the symbols, just go for the odd one out. In any case it's not your problem as tank

strong forum
#

I've never used the weak aura

#

It's a simple memory game at best

#

Or just a "what is the only symbol that is unique"

#

Takes literally 5sec

oblique garnet
#

the route is determined after 2 first ones anyways

#

If you have good enough memory you will remember it based on the first 2 ones

#

without weakauras

median tulip
#

It's going to be hilarious in around 11.0 when its a levelling dungeon and nobody remembers how to do the maze

not sure if its worth trying with my guild tho ๐Ÿคฃ

oblique garnet
#

How are you planning on killing boss otherwise

strong forum
#

Well you gotta force the burrow some time

#

So why not just do it there

jagged pier
#

easiest time as well as he wont melee someone if they are slow

chrome falcon
#

yeah if your guild can't stack on a preset point with uh

#

10 seconds warning

#

you might be in trouble

craggy pilot
#

yea we usually stack when the retch happens

#

but usually people are not fast enough for it to cancel the retch

orchid garden
chrome falcon
#

@craggy pilot we have a grip rotation for our bdk and you can also put a gateway down for the melee but it shouldn't be hard

chrome falcon
#

lifegrip

grave crane
#

thats funny af

chrome falcon
#

because bdk slow

chilly brook
#

why would he need it

craggy pilot
#

oh read BDK thought it was DK grip

chilly brook
#

it's literally such a long cast

chrome falcon
#

he doesn't

chilly brook
#

I run out every time

chrome falcon
#

need it

#

but he's the slowest person we have and the furthest from the ranged camp

chilly brook
#

yea but he could just walk

#

like a normal person

chrome falcon
#

sure

#

or he could just get gripped ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

#

just speeds things up

chilly brook
#

no

#

he picked red class

#

he should suffer

chrome falcon

i think he already is at this point

or he will be soon

oh wow

Aster I wasn't so surprised about

cinder storm
dawn canyon
#

Aster had funny reason

#

Pieces is just sad disband

blazing condor
#

just by shield slam alone you wasted 1.2k

chrome falcon
#

yep

#

huge rage waste

#

press IP more

chilly brook
#

a little low on blocked hits

lofty widget
#

casts+blocked hits are also low

chilly brook
#

should be above 80%

chrome falcon
#

avatar casts low because of the wasted rage

#

intervene casts low

#

charge casts not great but not terrible

#

wait

#

you cast execute

#

ONE TIME

#

the whole key?

chilly brook
#

more shield walls

chrome falcon
#

execute literally hits for 25-30k on a crit

chilly brook
#

more fleshcrafts

#

I'm bad at it

chrome falcon
#

also not running the shield wall conduit

chilly brook
#

but 12x in the key means you only had the buff for 24m

#

instead of the whole time

#

all you gotta do is tap it

#

don't need to channel

chrome falcon
#

you used outburst on thunderclap 55 times

#

that's 55 too many

#

ALWAYS outburst on shield slam

cinder storm
#

That's a bad habit from bfa that I'm trying to set aside

lofty widget
#

is there some easy way too see what you use outburst on?

chilly brook
#

oh wait

chrome falcon
#

damage done-> click the outburst icon

chilly brook
#

you're playing emeni????

cinder storm
#

No lol

#

Marileth

chilly brook
#

ah my b

#

saw lead by example in your buffs lol

chrome falcon
#

thunderclap is a dogshit spell

#

200% of dogshit is still dogshit

#

always spend outburst on shield slam

#

gives you more revenges and more rage

#

but yeah you need to cast ignore pain WAY MORE

chilly brook
#

doesn't matter if you get more damage out of TC

#

the rage generation is garbage

chrome falcon
#

you basically just mindlessly mash ignore pain during last stand

chilly brook
#

which means less damage overall

chrome falcon
#

well you don't even get more damage out of TC

chilly brook
#

in reference to outburst

chrome falcon
#

on 99% of pulls

chilly brook
chrome falcon
#

yeah

#

just remember that this whole class literally is just 1) blocked hits and 2) your rage bar

#

generate as much rage as humanly possible

#

and spend it before you cap

cinder storm
#

Thanks guys, I ll keep working on it and rewire myself a lot more with the spell prio

chrome falcon
#

because 31% banner uptime in sanguine is very low

chilly brook
#

i.e. even if it was better damage per that global the rage gen from shield slam alone outperforms it in the conversion to damage from revenge and getting more avatar

chrome falcon
#

just remember that charge+avatar+SS is literally 115 rage

#

and that's not counting last stand and banner giving rage per second

#

you generate so much rage on this class

cinder storm
#

It was just feeling weird spamming IP but yeah, better to focus on SS - Revenge

chrome falcon
#

that during high rage periods you just need to blast 1 million IPs

#

you weren't spamming IP

#

if you were spamming IP you wouldn't have wasted ~2k rage

#

you wasted 340 rage on ravager for example

#

280 on reprisal

cinder storm
#

I was not, because it felt weird to do so, but I ll start working on it moving forward

chrome falcon
#

don't think of IP as mitigation

#

it's literally just CDR on ravager+outburst

#

your goal is to never let your rage bar hit 100, and if it ever does, you need to immediately dump as hard as you can

cinder storm
#

Got it

chilly brook
#

Ideally in logs your banner uptime should be above 60%

#

much higher if you can stay in combat the whole time

#

but logs skew it a bit

grave crane
#

to see blocked hits is that under damage taken and its under mitigated?

chilly brook
#

using details to track uptime of it is much easier since it's only combat time

cinder storm
#

My best on details is like 48% but I know I was making something awfully wrong, you guys put it into light lol

chilly brook
#

should be 80% or more

#

Jakey has had as high as 90%

chilly brook
grave crane
#

alright thanks

delicate iron
# distant crystal you can leap it tho right

A bit late to reply but no, I believe you can't leap either, I did it once between 2 sets of tentacles (left and right) and I still died right in the middle when they slammed. Cost us the key =(

chrome falcon
#

if you're talking about PF last boss yeah

#

can't leap it

timber slate
#

Use banner for speed buffxeos

chilly brook
#

that last banner was like 5 minutes straight of banner

#

pretty sure that's from jumping down from 2nd boss all the way until last boss in mists

shell shale
#

It's fun leaving first boss in plauge fall I usually get to leave with 40 seconds on banner left

#

Red ooze plus lust

chilly brook
#

maze sucks for uptime if your healer is slacking on doing the doors mid combat

timber slate
#

Do you guys use fleshcraft only or stay in the red shit for the haste buff?

shell shale
#

Both

lofty widget
#

stay in ofc

#

healer mechanic

chilly brook

and I use fleshcraft to refesh my free 200 mastery or w/e the buff is

This tier is too OP

its never overkill

its a 45 sec cd these day,s unless you need it next pull just pop it

shell shale

I still want evoker tanks

lofty widget
#

please no

let them focus on current tank balance first

like range hunter weapons, or shield

I mean currently every tank Is useable for almost all content

chilly brook
chilly brook

i mean

thats partyl due to borrowed power

Borrowed power is just that specs power

I mean blizzard always goes back on their design philosophy

Now they want to give em back because it feels like you earn more

I'm hoping they make cool trees tho

i mean

its not just "spend 5 points to make bshout give 5% ap"

jagged pier
#

well we dont know that for sure

#

it could be

strong forum
#

its more along the lines of "spend 1 point to get this ability, maybe spend 1-2 points to empower said abiltiy"

#

i mean just look at the previews

#

90% of them are 1 pointers

chilly brook
#

Like I said

strong forum
#

and known abilities

chilly brook
#

from a design perspective

#

it's an elegant solution to modernize talent trees

jagged pier
#

doesnt mean the multi pointer ar e like that tho

timber slate
#

Bring need/greed back instead

chilly brook
strong forum
#

the multipointers usually share the same icon as a single point icon

followed after the single point icon

so i very much assume its an "empower this ability" kind of deal

yes

the interviews said as much

yet we only get to deflect 1, at best

right but on desausage I think I reflected the cone like twice on mythic or something and had like 100k damage reflected back to the boss

5 seconds of all reflects on that would be hilarious

medivh level hilarious

i mean in cases like those just dont reflect

20 second CD is kekw

i usually have 1 or 2 get through but can reflect all the others

#

and those 1 or 2 with like 2 seconds on the cd

distant crystal
#

what's it called

shell shale
#

The first 1 you reflect kill urh you get 2nd one then if you pree cast it for next few it lines up nicely

trim bay

reaping schythe

get a fury warrior dps to taunt every second 1

I don't do ToP enough

But the 50% push can fk timings up and make you miss one or 2

cerulean wyvern
#

codex of first technique and good?

lofty widget
#

ik, but not reflect

chilly brook
#

scales with damage intake

lofty widget
distant crystal
#

is there any good way to see what you reflected/deflected in logs?

chilly brook
#

but since our damage intake is lower than other tanks not great

strong forum
#

atleast not the dmg output

#

you can filter in dmg taken with SR up i guess

distant crystal
#

it's embarassing how shit i am with using WCL filters and such

#

but if you deflect will it even show there

#

damn i even reflected a death bolt

#

from the adds

#

must've just been blessed uhr/push timing

gray iris
#

hey guys, pressing ignore pain 2 times in succession means it will prevent 20k damage right?

chrome falcon
#

yes IP stacks twice

gray iris
#

so does it make sense to get brutal vitality as a conduit over reduced shockvave?

strong forum
#

you shouldnt use either

#

LOL

gray iris
#

oh

strong forum
#

BV doesnt go beyond the regular IP cap so its useless

#

reduced shockwave is useless period

#

BV or Fueled by Violence should only be your 4th endurance conduit if you somehow get that many

distant crystal
#

wait there's a conduit for shockwave?

strong forum
#

and for a finesse conduit you either use the rallying cry one or safeguard

distant crystal
#

damn w/ rumbling earth

#

you could be the #1 stunna

strong forum
#

you can get Shockwave downt to 12sec CD

#

and DR EVERYTHING

gray iris
#

ill post my conduit screenshot here..wait

coral quartz

Guys looking to omptimize spell reflection is there any particular dungeon where it shines

okay ill change them now

cerulean wyvern
#

out of these trinkets, which would you use for tanking M+ and Raid?

  1. Viscera of the Coalesced Hatred
  2. Heart of the Swarm
  3. Codex of First Technique
  4. Earthbreaker's Impact
  5. The First Sigil
  6. 246 OWS
  7. OPC
strong forum
#

earthbreaker + codex

jagged pier
#

impact and codex or m+

distant crystal
#

where does that drop damn

jagged pier
#

sigil and somthing else for raid

strong forum
#

but my god these choices suck

distant crystal
#

my unnerving is 226 D:

cerulean wyvern
#

lol...

strong forum
#

OWS + earthbreaker then

#

or OWS + OPC

urban portal
#

heart is funny

strong forum
#

use codex only for rygelon/jailer

urban portal
#

full heal with spear

strong forum
#

generally this

#

but if you go full prot, just slap AAP top left

cerulean wyvern
strong forum
#

actually lemme redo

#

smth like this

urban portal
#

i would go heart and codex

#

or heart and OWS

#

@cerulean wyvern

#

you can block during heart

#

and you can do the macro that dps warriors do with signet to also get leech from your spear

gray iris
strong forum
#

i generally recommend going necrolord tho

gray iris
#

did it

cerulean wyvern
urban portal
#

yea

#

obviously its a lot of overhealing

#

and you cant cast during it

#

but its funny

cerulean wyvern
#

lol

gray iris
urban portal
#

how long does heart last though, 2 gcds?

jagged pier
#

why are u recommending swarm its like the 2nd worst trinket out of the ones he listed

cerulean wyvern
#

would that work in M+ if I decided to pull a ton?

urban portal
#

you spend 1 of those on spear

#

so you only miss out on 1 global

sick sentinel
#

unity + rep for keys and alot of current raid

urban portal
#

heart is more HPS than codex like 80% of the time until you reach 20+

gray iris
#

if i go necro will i be able to use unity?

urban portal
#

and it costs 1 global

sick sentinel
#

you can use unity for all covs as long as you have it

thin mortar
#

So I keep hearing how bad prot is atm, havent played my warrior at all in SL basically since I took almost a year break

how bad are we talking? if i dont wanna push high keys or mythic raiding its still fine or are we talking completely bonked?

distant crystal
#

ya that's unity's gimmick

gray iris
distant crystal
#

craft once and freely swap

#

spear won't be available

urban portal
distant crystal
#

unity will buff banner instead

sick sentinel
#

no, it simply changes to glory legendary

gray iris
sick sentinel
#

if u go NF it changes to the NF one

#

works like this for alllll classes and legendaries tied to covenenats

thin mortar
gray iris
sick sentinel
#

u don't need do anything else, it will change on its on for u

dawn canyon
sick sentinel

unity + rep, probably on boots rep

nomer showed me this one

chilly brook

Jokes aside

#

Prot is fine

#

More than fine actually

sick sentinel
#

what does it mean "when you defeat an enemy"

chilly brook
#

Itโ€™s just you either play well or you donโ€™t and die

urban portal
#

its so good on jailer but so iffy on mythic rygelon

sick sentinel
#

credit for kill or killing blow or depends entirely on the thing itself

thin mortar
gray iris
#

fuck i joined necro and im back to renown 1

chilly brook
#

You have prot warriors doing 27s and 28s

The spec is fine

chilly brook
sick sentinel

my main is in horde and this one is in alliance and different server

chilly brook
#

Doesnโ€™t matter

oblique garnet
#

its account wide

sick sentinel
#

yes

chilly brook
#

Account wide

sick sentinel
#

its light blue item heirloom quality

gray iris

do i buy that in auction house or something?

oblique garnet
#

vendor in oribos

#

next to flightmaster

chilly brook
#

By the flight master

gray iris
#

oh okay

sick sentinel
#

buy it on ur main, and mail it, it will go since its account wide even despite faction and server

gray iris
#

alright lemme try

sick sentinel
#

when u go to mail it, type first letter of ur character and select the yellow name that shows you

#

like this

dawn canyon
#

sell the sod lfr trinket man

gray iris
#

damn it is only letting me get renown till lvl 40

dawn canyon
#

yep

#

thats all it does

sick sentinel
#

still, every single big quest you do, will give a reknown, any major thing you do like complete a dungeon or kill a raid boss kill a rare complete a weekly quest

gray iris
ocean yoke
#

if you havent done the zereth mortis campaign for that character yet it is a ton of renown

gray iris
#

sadly i completed that campaign only yesterday

ocean yoke
#

damn

sick sentinel
#

i'd try them all just to see what they are like, but then choose the good ones when time comes

gray iris
#

nomeratur suggested marileth... Ill try that first xd...

oblique garnet
#

marileth owns

gray iris
#

also any advice on using banner.. Do i pop it right at the start like sob?

urban portal
#

yeah

#

and basically just run through the necro story

#

youll unlock all your soulbinds and get renown 60-70 that way

gray iris
ocean yoke
sick sentinel
#

Yea he does just leap charge / off taunt charge / intervene mid fight .

gray iris
sick sentinel
#

He used wall on mythic rygelon caus its dots but yee that's it

urban portal
#

you have to use wall on m rygelon right

#

since you really need to soak

chrome falcon
#

well there's exactly 1 log for m rygo and he used rep

shut summit
#

you dont need wall

urban portal
#

damn corrupted strikes does 0 damage

craggy pilot
#

in HC Anduin, do you need to spread in the Arthas phase since the ghouls cleave? ๐Ÿค”

urban portal
#

no

chrome falcon
#

no

#

and yeah corrupted strikes does 0 damage as long as you have 2 IPs and SR or DS up

#

when it first hits you

craggy pilot
#

what about the "Soul Explosion" they do when they die? ๐Ÿค”

chrome falcon
#

don't stand in it sir

urban portal
#

i looked at logs and you have shield wall up for every soak anyways

craggy pilot
chrome falcon
#

correct

craggy pilot

oh it shoots at ranged it looks like

thx ๐Ÿ™‚

we had low % wipes cuz of dps fucking up quasars, i double soak downstairs and use only ironbark for one, its pretty not scary

Our pwar used wall, private logs tho

I could see SB leggo work tho

On mythic

strong forum

ive said it before and ill say it again

only bad pwars play wall on prog cuz they cant play reprisal well

Ya is good for the game

chilly brook
#

playing a class where the devs actually listen to your complaining must be nice

strong forum
#

I mean

#

The defensive changes we got

gray iris
#

necro feels like low dps to me with prot warrior compared to kyrian

strong forum
#

Were pretty on the nose

strong forum
#

Necro is a bit more dps than kyrian if played well

gray iris
chilly brook
#

how much you doin as kyrian

#

@gray iris

chrome falcon
#

i just wanted to beat my co-tank on ST dps sadga

chrome falcon
# gray iris umm okay

Necro multiplies your dps based on how well you play but kyrian is just a flat increase basically

#

If you were already doing like 9k dps without necro (random number) then a better player gets more benefit from the extra rage/str

#

Whereas with kyrian all you have to do is press spear on CD and it doesn't matter what else you do

#

I hope that made sense it made sense in my brain

sick sentinel
#

actually taught a warlock how to do the mists tree skip, and didn't bork the key

#

so, besides the thing that does the group stealth for m+ 10 affix, i need to find out what the the other 2 do and when im supposed to be popping those and for what reasons

maiden ravine
#

Unless skipping, pretty much just do urh

#

Occasionally you'll get situations where you get a buff and a boss near each other then the boss can be vy

sick sentinel
#

like, its always 3 runes? and they always respawn and you can just pick the dps one over and over if you want

maiden ravine
#

They don't really respawn

sick sentinel
#

im just confused by the little details

#

welll, i figured you get 3 orbs, and they keep showiing up, if you kill one, you destroy it and it doesn't appear any more

gray iris
#

with kyr I would just use sob and my dps was quite good...

timber slate
#

Never kill Vy, the buff might be good, but he always teleport way back to antartica lol

urban portal
#

its another charge for reprisal

timber slate
#

๐Ÿ˜†

#

But you lose too much time

urban portal
#

then you charge back

timber slate
#

Then you intervene?

they nerfed the nerf

Is 1k dps nerf a nerf? ๐Ÿ˜‰

silk pine
#

Ok Blood Dk is still S Tier

jagged pier
#

tiers KEKW

gray iris
#

i think a lot of rage is generated playing necro.. Im over capping a lot.. Specially when i press ss with revenge... 2 min cd is quite long for banner compared to 45 sec cd of sob

timber slate
#

It was 0.5 to 0.3 sec runeblade
But now its another tooltip

chrome falcon
gray iris
#

805+ uptime? Does it not last for only 15 seconds ?

#

80%

chrome falcon
#

uh

gray iris
#

okay you mean by spending rage you add 0.5 seconds everytime to the banner

chrome falcon
#

yeah

gray iris
#

defense is also pretty solid of necro

#

i used to struggle with those opening mobs of dos with kyrian but with necro it went smoothly

runic sparrow
#

i still play, im just a monk abuser now : )

scenic mural
timber slate
#

I know

#

Whats funny?

#

Rude

steady lantern
#

Just did a SoA run and banner did not extend duration with rage spent(used banner and after 15 seconds it was gone), with unity lego equipped. Anyone else experiencing this?

mighty valley
#

did you swap covenants recently? there was some bug with unity not updating correctly a while back

strange lintel
#

what percent do i need if i go ardenweald first in dos

#

coming out i mean

mellow bridge
#

Depends on the rest of your route obviously?

#

Just check in mdt what you want to play

vestal vault
#

man I just ran with a guy NF Niya and he was crushing dps as tank, bizzare

chilly brook
#

define crushing

sick sentinel
#

okay, so whats the default rune to kill when its in the way i have to do it

#

or, how does it work, if its not that simple

ocean yoke
#

default to urh

sick sentinel
#

+10 mechanic, i've done keys but not this mechanic, the key im on is top 10 and say it doesn't matter which ones we kill

chilly brook
#

urh

#

kill urh

#

99% of the time

#

if you don't have a special route kill urh 100% of the time

sick sentinel
#

https://raider.io/news/343-the-weekly-route-encrypted#theater-of-pain There are no required uses of any Cyphers in our route for this dungeon, though if youโ€™re looking to experiment you could try using the first Wo cypher in Gorechopโ€™s wing to skip down to the bridge!

timber slate
#

ToP is straight forward

#

kill URh when it appears

sick sentinel
#

When it dies, you gain a 15% Haste buff and a small damage proc for 45 seconds. party?

mighty valley
#

yeah, all three of them buff the entire party

timber slate
#

thats Vy

sick sentinel
#

don't take the wo unless its part of established known routes or have to basically

dawn canyon
#

ye

sick sentinel
#

so, do you attack them early on in the fight to spawn the dude?

#

and then nuke the dude, i dunno how tough the guys that pop out are, one is a tank buster i read

mighty valley
#

so there's three tiny adds

#

as soon as you kill one, the others disappear, and the big one pops out

#

usually people don't hard focus the big one, it just gets cleaved down

sick sentinel
#

i have an idea 3 shape thingies and you kill one a dude pops out, you kill it in time, i think they run away, you get a buff

chilly brook
#

@sick sentinel just kill urh

sick sentinel
#

CDR is better and mp5 makes healer life easier?

chilly brook
#

yes

#

99% of the time everyone kills Urh

#

Sometimes Wo if there's a planned skip

#

EXTREMELY rarely does Vy intentionally get killed

sick sentinel
#

is this thing that pops out, like how much out of 10 threat is it to wipe the group or kill me

dawn canyon
#

2

#

it has a frontal slam

#

taunt it once it spawns

#

it has a tendency to slap fury warriors

sick sentinel
#

wwwwwwwwwwwwwww

#

sorry, i'm practice for key

dawn canyon
#

good

mighty valley
#

it has a "tankbuster" cast that just hits you, can't do anything about it, and then a splat on the ground that you have to get out of

#

don't get hit by the ground slam, it's big dam and stun

sick sentinel
#

dunno if it will pan out but going for 3 more keys, try for the 3rd reward

timber slate
#

just try a +10 in an easy dungeon

golden pollen
#

How do u cope with dps killing the wrong relic often

odd tree
#

I did some 10s on an alt the other day, most groups hard focus vy. Don't know any better

lofty widget
odd tree
timber slate
#

Lmao

lofty widget
#

i mean it's in no ones interest to get the wrong relic, and you have arguably more ST than a destro lock spamming rain of fire

#

so might as well

odd tree
#

Does a /target macro work on the relics? I have a WA that adds icons to their nameplates, might as well make a macro as well.

elitismHelper

#

dogshit ass cringe addon

sick sentinel
#

i use to run it in bfa

sick sentinel
dawn canyon
#

idk i find seeing the chat pop up when i get hit very annoying

#

like im fully aware i got hit

#

shut up about it

sick sentinel
#

so what i stand in sanguine when i can heal everything up with enraged degen + im fully aware

dawn canyon
#

healer issue anyways

#

like do ur job mr holy priest

sick sentinel
#

tank issue dragging it around the pool

dawn canyon
#

use ur guardiant

sick sentinel
#

if i DO run EH i turn it to silent self report and report at end and then it spits out who took dmg

#

if you leave it on default spam mode it will cause drama

#

some, it will cause to play btter

#

sanguine week is bring a dk druid or monk no exceptions

#

i don't want to rely on RNG fear to maybe get them out of it

#

yeah but idc about sanguine as fury warrior i can self heal

#

good dr + insane healing

#

if we got like 50 stuns i take impending for fun

#

i just dodge things that oneshot me

#

impending is my pretend deathstrike

#

its not used dw skyhold....

#

im talking fury impending not prot impending

steel mist
#

can anyone tell me how is necrolord is better in dps than lets say nightfae

sick sentinel
#

just to make it clear so i dont get insta kicked xd

steel mist
#

is it the oozling

sick sentinel
#

mega mastery uptime

steel mist
#

or am i missing something

#

thats it?

sick sentinel
#

i mean

steel mist
#

its just that the one demand aftershock from nf is valuable to me

steel mist
#

wait what

#

from where?

dawn canyon
#

The conduit

sick sentinel
#

conduit

steel mist
#

ohhh

#

right

dawn canyon
#

Also 6 rage per second

#

Kinda big

steel mist
#

I forgot about that

sick sentinel
#

too easy to keep uptime of banner as prot as well

dawn canyon
#

In keys it's a bit tricky at first

#

Raid it's fine

sick sentinel
#

in keys u need time to adapt id say

steel mist
#

i also seeing that bonesmith heimer is better damage wise than marelith

dawn canyon
#

Nome told me to run Marge and i trust nome

steel mist
#

marge?

dawn canyon
#

Marileth

sick sentinel
#

oh no.... de other side 12..... my arch nemisis

dawn canyon
#

Also all Urh key unless you guys decide to do some shenanigans

#

Movespeed is cool in dos

sick sentinel
#

is 9.1 route still viable

#

clear the ring NF gnome hakkar

chrome falcon
distant crystal
#

clearing the ring is kinda pointless w/o anima dudes

sick sentinel
#

i mean like really though why is an addon that points out that you got hit for 90% of your total hp a bad thing

#

its annoying

#

its pointing out useless info

chrome falcon
#

because it's already embarrassing

#

and i know i fucked up and got hit

sick sentinel
#

im aware that im standing in sanguine

chrome falcon
#

and i don't need some random pug dipshit to tell me

sick sentinel
#

a 90% of your hp attack is you have turbo dogshit gear, or its a main boss mechanic you stood in with the debuff

dawn canyon
chrome falcon
sick sentinel
#

like no shit sherlock

#

i decided i wanted to sit in it

chrome falcon
#

i've already had to delete the r-slur 3 times int the last 3 messages about that addon

sick sentinel
#

and do dps

#

if you get none or next to no notifications from that then its a good key though

#

and your doing things correctly mostly likely

sick sentinel
#

its a good key if it goes well

chrome falcon
#

no it's a good key if the randoms shut the fuck up and let me play

sick sentinel
#

i can tank 1280451 million sanguine damage

chrome falcon
#

and don't judge me with an addon

#

when they're probably worse players

sick sentinel
#

and it can still be a good key

chrome falcon
#

who feel like they need to point out that someone fucked up

#

if a raid leader points out every time someone stands in fire

#

they're not a good raid leader

#

they're just annoying

steel mist
#

is there a range limit for banner

chrome falcon
#

15 when you cast it

sick sentinel
#

raid is fine

chrome falcon
#

infinite once the buff's up

sick sentinel
#

rl should be shitting on u

#

if u keep fucking it up

#

if u can self heal it

#

sometimes people don't even know what they got hit by and they see it and go WTF i didn't know that mechanic

#

then call it

chrome falcon
#

depends

sick sentinel
#

thats what i always do

chilly brook
chrome falcon
#

if you're just an HC or early mythic guild then fine

sick sentinel
#

"dont need healing, enraged degen up"

chrome falcon
#

because people need to be told not to stand in fire

sick sentinel
#

i think calling EH toxic and cringe is pretty grey morally

#

or something

chrome falcon
#

in a good mythic guild your players know not to stand in bad

chilly brook
chrome falcon
#

and telling everyone else they stood in bad just puts them on the defensive

#

wait

sick sentinel
chrome falcon
#

is the addon actually called

chilly brook
#

EH is just annoying af

chrome falcon
#

elitism helper?

sick sentinel
#

its more towards negative for sure, but its not inherently toxic

#

yes

#

its just cringe

chrome falcon
#

i thought that was just its nickname

sick sentinel
#

and annoying

chrome falcon
#

how can anyone download that and not hate themselves

chilly brook
#

I know when I get hit

dawn canyon
#

Worst thing is how the chat bubble Blocks my view

#

On the floor

sick sentinel
#

u cant change my mind

chrome falcon
#

all the addon does

sick sentinel
#

its cringe and annoying

chrome falcon
#

is put people on the defensive

sick sentinel
#

and has no purpose

#

is it cringe if i use it in the way i described

chrome falcon
#

because now everyone knows they got hit

#

yes
