Rumbling earth torghast power for m+ when?
Dude that would be such a cool Talent
Oh! So thats why the spires adds (ether something) sometimes differ in cast time. Cause I charge wierdly sometimes?
Idk a 5k dot where u leap
the thorgast power
try to stun them, then they sync up the cast and tell ur boomie to hold his beam
Shockwave op op
that would be damn nice
Yeah. Usually do that
wasn't there a legendary in legion that applied colossus smash when you leapt
and it was insanely bad to play with
heroic leap leaves an earthquake effect when you do it for X seconds ontop of normal damage, yes please
I would love to see Ancient Rubble, Glory of Skyhold and Blade of the Tideskorn Anima powers make it into the talent trees
i liked the banners from cataclysm
ancient rubble is gross
no
movement being turned into damage is not good design imo
I like the one where shit takes 30% more under a shouts effect
one banner was sorta like how our old bfa ravager worked, or spear of bastion (stationary), but taunted instead and i think had HP maybe
there was like, 2 other banners, but that was by far the most useful
not needed with todays kit
you don't have to spec it if you don't like it xD
you do if you want to be optimal and it's the best option
Gibbering Skull is another Anima Power I would love to have carry over
movespeed is also DR as well, because you can run out of void zones faster or away from another player faster while you have damaging shadow circle around you, causing them to take less damage and needing less healing
you can stand in longer doing dps before being required to move, shortening the window of how long you have to run i mean
Oh and Shrieking Flagon. I'd fucking kill for Shrieking Flagon
i hope that menacer talent finds its place, seems like it has strong niche uses. would be strong if it includes the effect of the conduit that causes it not to break as easily
In fact I'd generally kill for some mob displacement abilities, regardless. PLEASE can we have Dragon Charge made available in PvE in the Dragon-themed expansion?
i just think charge spell should be more closer to dragon charge
you charge directly at the guy, and your slightly knocking people out the way to get there
I'm a fucking walking wrecking ball; I just want the ability to bulldoze mobs out of Sanguine pools already
i just wish we had a stab caster button
only works on casters, does a shit load of damage
it's called spell reflect...
if i upgrade pants to tier 262, can i then still upgrade it with valor?
yes
is it worth to upgrade anything <278 to tier? š¤
currently have 262 legs, and 265 is my lowest tier piece on hand
i guess i could up my tier to 272 with valor š¤
However if u burn it all now you might have to sit on 278s for a week
Im personally holding a charge
i have already 3x 278 tier
only stuff i can use valor for is Hands+Belt+Legs anyway š¤
guys i tried my best but still could only get ss cpm to 9.8....Is it because of my low haste 21% only?
unless its a different trinket combo
Yeah that's very low haste
Idk if it makes up for 4 cpm
But thats a good start 
and im having a banner uptime of only 27%
9.8cpm is really low considering the base cooldown is 6seconds, sounds like you're either sitting on it too long or not getting procs at all
i think im sitting on it too long
but how much are you pressing revenge?
i got 11.2 cpm of revenge
Nvm, talking out of my ass, base cooldown is 9 seconds š
nice lol...the best i could do was 13cpm of revenge
25% uptime of a 2 minute CD is 30 seconds which means you're spending an extremely low amount of rage
generate more and press more ignore pains
So, anyone try and pug heroic jailer yet? I was tempted to try last night but pugs are always so bad. I just want my AOTC
i think im not managing my rage generation effectively
sounds lik e it
On another note the jailers gauntlet floor 8 pisses me off. Really bad boss combinations with stuns/fears destroys your runs.
also i lose banner uptime when one pull is over and im going to the second pull
Anyone got tips for death speaker packs in dos for pugs? I find a lot of groups missing shadowcore kicks and getting chunked for 40-50k in 20s. Spell reflect always seems to eat a scribe cast even when I try to time it out
Hit shield wall etc all because dps won't kick.
Get get aggro then fuck of
Jump with spell reflect and shield wall, kick second shadowcore, aoe stun and pray your dps kick rest when you need to jump
that pull haunts me lol. If i survive that pull, i get a dopamine rush
Yeah I'm using my defensives and trying to outrange, but all it seems to take is one cast of it to ruin the pull, taking 40% of my hp when shield wall runs out.
ah, there's your issue, don't overstay
the raptors apply the poison too and there's the scribes casting
Thanks all, I'll start just dumping some rage for threat and running away as long as I can if it happens again haha
Aoe taunt before running out 
if you run with a holy, just tell your healer to give you wings before your shield wall runs out, if you want to stay, if not, just leap and walk a bit down the stairs, no shame
I usually charge at it and get the first interrupt
But my somewhat below average dps Sadge
and spell reflect the next
if i'm lucky my spell reflect wont fade off to another cast lmao
I always link that spell from MDT and I make sure to tell the dps before the key starts, that that's the only ability I fear in that dungeon and its their job to kick it
don't forget to use ur shield wall btw
if you charge spell reflect first, and interrupt second, you will have spell reflect when you are kiting sooner and someone forgets to kick it
Remember this is pugs I'm asking about. Half the time I spell reflect even after mentioning I'm going to, someone ends up kicking anyways haha
Maybe charge into Shockwave to guarantee the shadowcore reflect and not eat scribe instead
if I spell reflect there is a 99.9% chance it will go away with another cast
or dps will suddenly decide to actually use their interrupt
like
"oh tank is spell reflecting, that mean that shit must hit hard so i'll interrupt"
bam, wasted SR
Yep prot war life
then no one interrupts the next 7 shadowcores
so, the pack in front of ardenweald is the only one I'd kick first since you want to move the whole pack fast to the urn
the one in front of hakkar I'd kick second, spell reflect first
i'll take anote on that thou for my guild group
thing is, having spell reflect as soon as possible when kiting since its dangerous to charge on a bad time
the rogue might not tricks me on cd but he kicks spells at least
I sometimes play in comms, and I call my spell reflect and someone still kicks
wcyd
oh, its even funnier on the gnome bosses where there's literally just one cast at a time
Cry and release
It's to the point in fort dos where I save challenging shout for when I'm running back to the pack after dying lol
I hate this
like
this hits my soul in a personal level
So which soulbind ācharacterā? Not sure what they are called. Do you pick for Necrolord?
Marileth
Plague binder
oh right I was about to ask
why do I never see Emeni picked
what makes marileth >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Emeni/heimir
Marileth has better interactions with m+ content than the other two, heimir felt like crap imo, Emeni was kinda fun
damage wise mikankos is the best of kyrian i think
pepegalos is fine too, kliea okay with crit
Pelapoop
i need to do tales of exile so i can fly to do WQ to get exalted or w/e to get craft unity in any slot
i know its revered, but i say exalted, becauseuntil now it was always exalted required
Do you guys choose bsc or bv with NL?
I went back to bsc
Its preference, bsc is more overall dmg, bv is more St and easier banner uptime
What do we need to survive all 3 tank circles on Lihuvim mythic?
shield wall, spell reflect, and a few ignore pains
And sr ofc
Jakey used DS
Don't know if it's mandatory
And shield block
Cause the physic part is blockable
ok ty. goal is to survive all 3 so we dont move the circle much
im tanking with a monk who also tells me he can survive all 3
marileth is easily the most well rounded while also offering the most defensive benefit
constant damage amp from kevin
huge mastery bump 24/7
also pick up other buffs from killing things
impactful damage shield if you drop low
etc.
emeni kinda poopoo
you have to full channel fleshcraft to actually get the full benefit of her, and if you're channeling that's wasted globals that you could be using to generate or spend rage and extend banner
You can move while you fleshcraft :D
doesn't matter
you can't do anything else
emeni is the lowest damage option
and the worst defensively as well iirc
she doesn't offer really anything of note
i think i would press fleshcraft exactly as often as i do now if i could cast while moving
i guess a bit more often since you'd do it between packs
I didn't consider the essence part
I usually don't put much mind on that part since it happens passively
Solvent is great
It's half the reason I started insisting on going left in Streets, NGL
what is the biggest buff though?
ui from retail wow ewh
map addons don't like to always display WQ proper / other issues with ui
True...
there's a flat magic DR
idk though
there's a ton of them
but like, okay, for example now in this zone
i can just, go and fly way up in the sky and chill tf out, not worry about shit all gunna attack me or respawns or nothin
and then, like when i want to go turn my new chest piece in for a set piece, i just, fly up, don't have to go through adds or use a stealth pot, look for a tornado thing to teleport up
doesn't matter
just, get on mount and fly to the spot
It somewhat does
you automatically pick the buffs up as soon as you walk on a corpse
it literally doesn't matter
you can get dismounted by flying mobs btw
Tank = Immune
nope
I mean, you can get the mechanical for 2 min. if you dont encounter another mechanical, you will lose the -5%
Tank= Dps
cannot be dazed while mounted
but Dps!= Tank
that is what you are thinking of
err no
I can't think of any situation where that would actually matter
Yes
now add weakaura middle of the screen + char frames to the side of it and ur good

All of the Relics are mechanicals
and mechagon in DoS
True
is literally all mechanicals
But after mechagon?
focus too far
But it is true, relics are mechanical
the only dangerous magic pack has a relic
swap pet and tot
my question, doesnt the relics despawn rather than die?
like I literally just got dismounted by it while I was looking for the spell in wowhead
it's a nice passive buff
"This not only dismounted me but also disconnected me from the server. Be warned, stay away from these guys when flying." comment
If you dont overthink, you dont solve it.
never got disconnected but definitely dismounted
The main problem with that is this
as a war its a non issue cuz heroi cleap
dps matters
Dps are stupid, we are not
but as a dk lmao
I am trying to Squaring the circle
Whats the difference between 9 and 99?š¤£
you realize
you doing damage is directly tied to your survival
if shits dead it hits less hard
not even that
from my experience anyways
literally
!
if you like 90 parse
you're optimizing your rage generation
as well as your other buffs
which directly impacts your survivability
the takeaway from this is
90% or more of all tanks, arent playing optimal because they're stuck in the "i have to play defensively" mindset
what is that mindset?
when playing optimall automatically means you will deal good dmg because thats literally how the tanks of the past 3+ expansions have been built
You have healers you can trust big man
lmao my raid guildies always ramble like monkeys when I mention tanks should also be doing damage
^
and thats exactly it
im expected to do damage in my guild so is my co tank š¤·
I just realized
Itās why I left my old raiding guild. Itās entirely about trusting your healers to do their job properly so you can do yours and be truly optimal. Thing is, you got lots of healers who donāt believe in being 100% optimal
first thing i told my cotank is "im not having a turtle fucking andy be my cotank, get your shit together"
Iād say rep is still better for Panth
and the quickest part that lasts like 40 secs sure u do but its not worth it
his reverb damage is actually gross tbh
It depends on your DPS and how long they stretch the final phase tbh
If your DPS nuke the final phase then not worth
If they donāt then reverb gets value
Also Iām coming back to the game casually after 2 months of retirement
he also just had a ton of revenge casts in fairness
And when I say casually I mean giga casual. Heroic Andy BS and nothing beyond a +25
i mean his mythic sigil will also go a long way
DPS trinket setup is still Sack/Sig right?
Or has that changed since Iāve been in cryostasis
sack/sigil/phial
Word
ows also still good
OWS big gud
Mythic variant tho right? Heroic is still powerful obv but Iām assuming heroic OWS doesnāt outvalue a mythic/heroic Sigil in raid
Right
Finally got my sack tho
Feelsgoodman
First day back after 2 months and I get a 272 (I know, gross) from a boost run I did in my vault

dw ive been "back" for a month
and ive got afe and scale
out of the very many 1 dos and 1 spires i did
AFE feels mid compared to OWS in keys
I stopped playing 
But pretty giga
BIS move
ofc afe is mid compared to ows lol
ows is literally 250 haste with 100% uptime
whereas afe is 360 haste with 30% uptime
360>250 
personally considering it
Honestly, taking that 2 month step back felt amazing.
There's a reason I'm only returning casually
It's healthy every now and then to put down the shield
basically
imo the game is the best when you're not forced to log in every day or do the same raid and prog it for 2-3 days a week for 6 months
Factual
Yep, that's what it's like running mythic since launch
not uncommon for a lot of mythic guilds
^
if you're not world like 500 or below
you're likely in there for over 4 months at least
if youre in a low rated guild
you never stop prog
as soon as you get CE youre most likely just before the opening of the next raid
^
Sometimes you reprog painsmith for the 10th time
yeup

in my old guild we had 1-2months of downtime at best before next tier
I admire your perseverance
aslong as the atmosphere is good
true
Yeah if your chilling and bantering its really alot of fun
I dislike raids since the end of legion to be honest. Just progressing for social
i dont like raiding
Its the negative attitudes that make it feel like a slog
same Nome
progressed ToS, got exhausted.
That and when you have people with conflicting levels of effort put in
I just clear the raid on hc once or twice to see the content and then go back to mah m+ings
now i know, if i ever raid again, it has to be of "high" worldrank and without a leading position
cuz boy ill just kill your guild if im in a leading position
im 2/2
RL is such a chore to be honest. Never asked to be, never bothered. Just backsitting.
I lead a small casual guild that barely clears Norma and heroic. And I go with another guild for my mythic fix. The casual guild has people literally burning out before we even hit heroic. I don't get casual players
Gambit : is it an acceptable path to kill the 1st packs of Murlocs with WO relic, go straight to 1st boss, then at the end teleport back at the entrance and resume killing the easier packs of murlocs ?
no
... no because ?
I think I might be coming to this position
aka I just don't have it in me to prog for like 5 months
like 2-3 months would be good
that seems hella inefficient
pull all your pulls first, then wo-skip to boss and proceed as normal
backtracking is never worth
I dislike that the new mechanics from raidboss that it tries to be fancy and shit. But all it does is to make wa more absolute.
unless its literally for 0.3% and you can skip a pride
Rule #1 of routing in M+:
Never turn around unless you absolutely have to in your route
Ya thats fine, ive used this route a few times. I like it this week because arguably the hardest part is the trash at the start
Backtracking is almost always a waste of time in M+
^
The thing is, in that specific case, there's no backtracking
youd have to do another wo-skip to proceed to 2nd boss or run back after last boss
that just screams inefficient
as a tank you need to keep your team engaged as much as possible, backtracking is inefficient, you waste time. Your team can use pots on a big pull and if you only pull one pack then backtrack to the end that's time wasted.
The thing with that route is it's a lazy option, you don't need to assess percentage before 1st boss
Isn't there a guy who teleports you to the entrance after last boss ?
it's not lazy, its plain bad
theres a portal yess
I mean i timed it at +21 this week with that route haha
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
And the hidden goal here, is not to worry too much about murloc packs with high risk of pulling extras
(pugging exclusively)
So like... A 16?
how much time left you had on that 21?
Since our burrowed power really waters down keys
My char name is Sundar , US-Malfurion, you can check it out on .io
š
Best of luck whichever one you pick
and also to not engage packs with twin totems
You can time a +21 with a hold W route homie, with all due respect. Not trying to sound toxic but I'm just telling you it's not a good route
It isnt that bad as they say, and arguably it is more time consuming the first boss rather than the second one.
Well you werenāt lying that is odd
some people play the game to relax and want to try the content
Oh, someone is there already
but not really dedicate time as if it was a job or a hobby
Record yourself
If u don't mind answering, why do u HAVE to use it?
windows has a built in voice recorder
or you can test yourself in discord under voice options
what a tragedy!
Youāre doomed now
does it also records the voice mask?
Only I know your real voice
if you set it up correctly, yes
Is there a WA
Gottem bud
that can track my note and give me a visual when i need to rally
cant believe Elon Musk is in skyhold
Elon Musk is everwhere, havent you Heard?
thats really hard to setup
you need specific parameters for the weakaura to tell you what to do
was wondering if there was already one available
not as far as im aware, that seems a little too specific
Yo can I get some of the good stuff youāre on
FF has no appeal to me cuz i dont care about ERP, RP or Story
He also already is a main character from FF
FF for me is better because of all those things you mentioned Nom, but lacks m+, so here I am
i wanna play games to press buttons, not watch movies
ykno
i used to like the adjacent story stuff you noticed whilst playing wow, pre-bfa
of course they do, and they use those recording to conquer the world
Precisely
Let me introduce you to something called mocap
MonkaS if they record my convos
they also probably are in league with EM cuz he is a genius with asperger
Youāre a funny guy
I've worked healthcare, your SSN is in a third party database overseas, I don't worry about those things anymore
Okay bud
this
x2
@sick sentinel we are always watching
just like the BBB is a paid yelp for some organizations and ppl think they are some sort of company enforcement police or what not
Okay Mattacate calm down only one person is maintaining this conversation
Yeah, just ignore pain irl
Talk about what you want to
a bit of offtopic is fine
Iām not
just dont go too crazy 
Heck Nome
as a tank, your job is to tank mobs and tank opinions, who often come from monkey brain dps
I mean you were looking for cheap treatment, were you expecting wine and caviar with the dental care?
in the country were you pay with bald eagles and money is everything
cheap is always gonna cost you more
this works every time
I mean... if they were students they can't give you a prescription for pain killer or AB's
Are we able to block and dodge etc during Heart of the Swarm on-use?
yes
yep
yep
Oh, nice.
NL barrier?
yep
Garbo trinket I assume but I'm running it with Pocket Protoforge since I hate M+ š¤”
they are both bad trinkets
Oh ya for sure. Swarm looks nice though š¤£
hey, remember when it was a 4 second cast and flat amount for necro bubble?
kind of nice healing too with the leech
pretty sure fleshcraft was always scaling with HP
the only thing they changed was how the soulbinds interacted with it
aka final form nerfed
no, old flesh craft was so awful they had to buff it in 9.1
9.0 was
9.0 was dark times
petition to add :despair:
was pretty alright to me except that pride was an awful affix
and ofc dungeon tuning was dog compared to now
Raid banged
fleshcraft was a 20% shield and they buffed it to 40%
they doubled the shield and did the damage reduction when channeling
nothing else directly to the spell afaik
it gains a 3rd effect now 20% dr while channel
Yeah he said that
It lost the 50% buff from nearby corpses, got a flat 20% extra shield and the channel dr.
It had two effects before and still does.
oh, and passive move near dead body get CDR 1 second on FC
Well, I guess you could say the first effect is the 20% buff.
Isn't that a soulbind?
Maybe not. š¤·āāļø
it felt like an oversized priest bubble for sacrifice of 3 gcds, played it on mage 9.0
Didn't most of the benefit of channeling it derive from soulbinds?
https://wago.io/n7l5uN3YM this one might be it
Well he's looking for "when he should rally"
Your guild needs to use ERT with the correct not efor that to work.
Not "how long does rally last for"
if you have a dynamic note it does a countdown for when you should use rally
Ah
but it needs the note yes
Viserio BiS
rally is very nice
i got it figured out guys
im actually really dumb
i can just remove all the other cds from my note except for rally
and make myrally timers take up half my screen
and make it glow when its time
Sure I guess
but i did also
Does your guild use timed ERT notes?
Just get that WA
Idid
well
it has a sound
I just use my eyes 
im blind
Rip
im trying to use my eyes more now too
WA>Eyeballs
thats why i changed UI, i been waiting on one you guys to post ui and when u did i stole it somewhat
making perfect flowers on lihu and lining myself up with my group while alsotrying to read my note for my rally
I mean if it helps it helps
is hard >.<
But you kinda juts remember when you're at the part of the fight where you press your 1 raid wide thing 
Whatever helps
i need help ā ļø
u need eyeballs to see WA unless ur blind and its a sound
I have a weakaura for that.
i have an app for that
Just put it over ur meter
Is Resolution bad or is Rally not keybound
looks like it's on . or , @dawn canyon
Ya resolution is defo scuffed is was wondering aswell
So my eyes are bad
Nice
It says 1
I dunno why but Im able to clearly see it on the phone
My desktop on the other hand looks like shit
is that rampage and execute on alt 2 + 3
because me blind
and me raid need me rally
so me make drastic change to ui
so me stay on raid team
works btw thanks for weakaura
you're welcome
You are prolly best off moving that up a bit
Why call when you get a WA yelling at you
idk, circumstances can change and the WA can't adjust

theres alot going on at the time of the rallys
shouldnt need to waste comms on it
like the first one
is inbetween making our 2nd flower and also right after lining up our groups for harmonic/melodic
so its really hectic
and its my responsability to just rally when its noted
It's way too complicated for a raid leader to completely shift raid cooldowns like that unless it's the very end of the fight and they're calling them. Weakauras are great for calling scheduled cooldowns at pre-determined times and reduce the strain on the raid leader as well as the clutter on discord, to focus on more important parts of the fights. 
oh for mythic sure, was just looking at the screenshot of heroic halondrus and thought this seemed like overkill lol
Do you remember this from Antorus?
no but i want it rn
it's crazy how much of a chump anduin is to tank
this dude does 0 damage on his melees
you can sit in the barrier on mythic for it's full duration without a taunt swap and your hp just doesn't move
He is a Priest
Can't help but think that the Jailer made a tactical error by giving a 2 handed sword to a guy who doesn't know how to use one
wow villains have also always made the mistake of taunting their foe with the exact thing that makes them have a personal revelation and turn the tide of the fight
right at their moment of victory half the time, too
a lot of the dailies don't give rep, weirdly
it's mostly the weekly quest + world boss + world quests
Whats the most satisfying thing to spell reflect?
mordretha scythe right now
Whatās the best way you have found to not accidentally waste seeing red proc on thunderclap?
Weakaura
use it at 7 stacks to proc it early
get the weakaura in the pins
and put TC on cooldown at 6 or 7 stacks
also: practice
also: accept and realise that TC is a dogshit spell that you don't want to press at the best of times
all these things
but the realisation that is might happen is a thing too. Try to avoid it but don't be el sadge if it happens
to spam TC like the guy in the logs linked here 9 hours ago did, roger that
Yeah no offence to that guy but that log literally hurt my brain that shit was had
Bad*
Do we want haste over ilvl?

if under 40%
Except jewellery if itās a big difference
yeah I figured neck/rings was a given since there is no Str on them
also, fishmancer is the one that drops totems, right?
avoid those groups for pulls?
ah no, its the scale boys
i'm dumb
seem to do naff all damage now ive switched to necro
im guessing just press it more xD
necrolord multiplies your damage
kyrian adds a flat amount to it
so basically necrolord is harder to get damage out of because you need to already be doing good damage
how long can you have banner up in m+?
there have been claims of 95%
80% is a good place to shoot for
but basically: a really bloody long time
Nice
thinking of making a prot warrior alt - is it a lot of fun right now? was thinking necro prot
very very fun
Express path to carpal tunnel
By far the most fun tank ive played in a long time
Jakey has had 93% confirmed with details
Whatās the logic on how itās possible to have banner up 85%+
Chain Pull, dont fuck up Outburst procs on TC, generate a lot of rage, spend a lot of rage
last step is develop RSI
Play better
Thatās it
Itās like asking how dks have 100% uptime on their set pre nerf
At max stacks
It has a 2 minute CD and last 10 seconds right ?
15, and, no, it lasts however long you want as long as you play well
And thereās a weakauara thatās recommended for managing outburst?
in the pins
So 15/120 to start. Spend 20 rage to extend it 1s. 100% uptime = spend 2100 rage in 120s.
You have to funnel a lot into IP but thatās off global.
New ksm mount color is sickš
Prince style
How much mastery does banner give?
400
Should i be in wind fury group or is that trolling. Tanking m raid
well
if you need WFT to live then you misplayed
and if you are taking WFT for dam may as well give it to a dps unless no other dps benefits more
we get a big % boost from WFT
you should be in there over like... eye beam DHs
but since our overall is lower we don't beat most dps
So I am new to warrior. Are legendary boots best for reprisal?
yes, since legs are a tier slot
why not use gloves as teir and get higher stats with legendary legs
you want to craft glory on helm for stats + the socket
so there's only four tier slots left after that
the differences are pretty small though, it's fine if you're not perfectly optimal immediately
well i was making sure im not losing out in the long run by giving up a leg legendary slot
what is glory helm?
covenant legendary
My guild made all the possible ppl sim it highest numbers won
Which thankfully included me
sounds good lmao
Yes, is a DPS gain for the raid
U are one if the best specs for it
Can someone help me understand why I'm taking a shit ton of damage in dreadlords? I have the logs but don't know how to read it, They are all wipes, I know what did I fucked up in try 7, missclicked the taunt at 1%, but in the rest I don't really know https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/fxPdgyAtTn69D1NZ/
Your external healing required per second (ehrps) isn't particularly awful. I think there's a few things you can improve.
-
Spend more rage, you are overcapping a fuckton, press IP and revenge more. Rage spent = everything about prot becomes better.
-
Play Necrolord, the rage gained will translate to increased survival in multiple ways by spending the rage, which I can delve into deeper.
-
Play reprisal over the wall, you can save shield wall for the swarm phase, it will improve your shield block uptime substantially, use intervene after a frontal from a boss on you, on one of your melee dps. The rage gained from reprisal is also significant, which as per #1 and #2 is very good
-
Improve your SS casts, more ss means more rage which means more of #1 and #2
Also one of your healers doesn't really know what they are doing, so that will make you feel like you are more fragile
Other small things:
didn't use bss as much as you could have, didn't use kyrian spear as much as you could have, didn't use healthstone, didn't use last stand on cooldown as a damage cool down (with conduit it is), with double h priest, 2x symbol of hope will reduce your sw substantially, so more reason to play reprisal.
It's mostly there, just need to tighten the screws š
Your bear cotank is a lot worse than you on some of these attempts so if you're getting most of the blame, the guild is suffering from meta brain

Buff warrior
I feel like if we complain enough we end up getting some another unnecessary aurabuff that takes us from strong to broken
Just need to get as good of an pr team as warlocks and boomies have
shhh they dont have to know . its for the greater good
hi guys, play we in m+ AM or Heavy Rep. ?
am always
AM
What's the point of high players doing this? or thwe trolling xD
Very very high keys where an unblocked hit is instant death, some people might use HR for the increased block time. We're talking 25+
kk ā¤ļø thx than for my keys 19-20 i play AM
nope still am on 25+
I thought it was a neglible mechanic.
Still, I took my week of from pushing keys.
It's a great week for tanking keys, because so many tanks are scared of Necrotic so you get a lot more choice of keys
Am i miss remembering Urh healing through Necrotic last time it was up?
It will ignore necrotic and heal you but it wont clear stacks
The keys ive done this week its healed me through it but not cleared stacks
But it could just be a reduction on the MASSIVE hps it kicks out
can dark iron dwarf gets ridof necrotic or bursting ?
Yes.
thanks
Are we all still running necro this week?
Tried a 20 as kyr and felt uber gimped
Didnt enjoy it at all
Don't think it's worth it to play kyrian
So in a key my banner up time should be around 80-90 percent if I'm not shit is that correct
How do I control having it up and then losing it due to the dungeon or not having trash at the time. Otherwise I'm just really shit I guess. Im siting on 70
You can't control stuff like that outside of thinking ahead about the pulls you're doing and if there's distance between the pulls.
E.g..banner just came off CD, do i pop it on this pack knowing i need to walk 30s after this pack to reach another pack or wait until the other pack to use it then knowing i can efficiently chain pull after.
Etc
u can also like start dragging mobs towards the next pack
so u can keep uptime
its all getting used to it
i posted a vid yesterday of a key where i had 93% uptime or somthing, but like i didnt stop pulling it was SD tho, so there isnt much downtime š¤·
Yea makes sense. I only just switched from kyrian. Doing 23s now and was told to switch. I went off icy veins for my conduit tree. I feel like I shouldn't be using show of force. Or are we forced to
I find it much easier to get high banner uptime on Fort weeks
well trash lasts longer and that means we usually get 3 rage per second from being hit
I don't think bosses attack that fast
well yeah that too
As long as the boss doesn't have some stupidly long intermission
you in here kami?
Oh boy
i've heard that from a fury warrior before as well KEKW
well you can spam more rage through IP than SB i guess considering you dont have charges

Nah real Chads spend rage on WWš
I had to explain "don't get hit in the back" to a Fury warrior in my guild when he started trying to tank
not when you are complaining that those mobs hit hard while completly ignoring the fact you can press sb and negate so much more damage than ip
I mean why use the CORE mechanics of protection warrrior since VANILLA when you can just use ignore pain
but i guess that 3.5% heal is so much better in tw
pretty sure Kami knows stuff we don't
i was trying to help him get better
Maybe he thinks he is still playing dudu bear and has to tank with his face
I mean if anyone replied to me like he did there to you I would just: right clic name-> ignore
no u tell them to come here, and then they realise your a SF in the channel so u know what your talking about 
then u get ignored by them
damn even 70 is like a huge win for me and 90+ banner uptime is godly...The best i can do is 50 lol
it takes practice
they do say practice makes perfection
yeah true that
sometimes when I'm waiting for guildies to do shit I sit on the training dummy and try to keep banner up
you should be auctioning off to the highest bidder who you still give banner to
nice
i'm 100000% gonna give mastery to the priest
i think banner makes sense if you have lots of haste... I have around 21% which leads to slow revenge and ss and i lose time on banner as a result... also skill is a major factor aswell
i cant.. have to wait till tuesday and pray i get a ring with haste
I don't think dropping ilvls is worth it unless its neck/rings thou
its not
and even then like 15 ilvls its an upgrade
because more stats > less better stats
yeah due to stat amount
Dropping ilvl for Haste is 100% worth it on Rings and Necklaces
Within reason, obviously. 278v272 or 272v262
i'm at 34% haste unbuffed
Most people seem to sit in the mid 30s with 275ish gear
i mean that depends if i had better rings and haste on my cloak and haste on my shield i might actually be at 40%
my freaking mastery is 33%
Just need to replace that belt (hopefully)
I could try to get OWS but doubt my guild will run that for an alt
I don't have any Haste on Belt, Cloak, Weapon or Shield
think im like 33% haste
OTOH I do come up with a bunch of crit there, so it's all good
but i play OWS
I swapped unity around due to that
only had 1 ring with haste

Hello, healer main for 3 xpac here and shifting towards tanking with warrior. What circumstances or when do you use execute? also is intervene that important? do you use it for mobility or when saving an ally or both?
I'm ok for Rings. 278 Stitchflesh and 272... Whichever it is that's Haste with a bit if Mastery
isnt 4% vers too low?
but now I got some 278 ring with crit/haste (from TOP i think) so I might swap my unity for prot to belt
you use execute over revenge on 3 or fewer targets, intervene should be used close to on cd due to reprisal
intervene is used basically on CD with reprisal leggo
unless there is some ability you might need to help soak
Execute is your Rage dump when available. Dead enemies do no damage. Intervene you use more or less on Cooldown to proc the effects of Reprisal.
but ew've commanding shout for that
Ahhh reprisal legendary, currently lvl 45 rushing lvl 60 and farm 4pc and 2leggo.
I believe the only time I've held my intervene was 3rd boss of SD in a tyr week. A dps went bat shit crazy and grabbed like 6 orbs and left healer with 1 orb so I had to use my intervene on him
Reading the guides/faq area for tanking, that's a lot of reading to be done. For blocking and spell reflect.
lmao
theres a few bosses that have group mechanics every 30 sec so it makes sense to hold intervene for those
What slot do you guys recommend for reprisal?
Feet
I mean it is fun remembering that shit right now but the healer was fumming
I still don't do keys that high for it to matter tbh
boots, unity on belt, then helmet when you have 4pc (not that important tho)
but i'll give it an eye
My goal for now is aotc and 3k io before pushing higher keys and mythic raiding. My experience so far is 3300 io rsham 4/11m but tanking is a whole other perspective and its exciting.
I'll probably die a lot to stuff i have never realized as a healer before.
in m+ and raids
like my highest timed is a 17 HOA on fort week (rag/explosive)
make sure to log your runs and im sure theres lots of people in here who can give great feedback
mine is 16+ sd
first tip. Don't turn your back to mobs
Is logging m+ the same process as in raid? just /combatlog and click the app thingy?
You want Necrolord, talent 3x1x231
yea
I think the funniest part of watching my raid healer go tank for dungeons for the first time was seeing how he turned his back to the packs to pull more
That much I know, that's how the tanks i heal die. No shield on the back for blocking/parry.
and got erased from existence
The don't turn your back thing is one of those things that every tank main knows, but just isn't explained anywhere

NECCROTIC I THINK IS THE TOUGHEST WEEK FOR TANKS
I get flamed a lot as a healer for not healing but how can i when his necrotic stack is 50+
SLT is the best i can do with some stuns, cc
How many necrolord abilities do prot warr have and how/when to use them properly?
Bring a monk for RoPš
There are 2 abilites..banner and flesh craft shield
Necrotic after the nerfs..is free. š
it was free before
If Necrotic is a problem then your DPS aren't going enough damage
or interrupting enough
It's basically a nothing affix on pure melee
You could also just use a frost mage
Perma slow for insurance when you need to yeet the fuck put
Dps dying to spiteful is a bigger issue 
Paladin if you can both trust eachother with bop timing g and your macro removal of bop
Monk rop
Druid roots typhoon
Those are other good ways to deal with necrotic, roster mage also very useful
@median tulip just bring 3 surv hunters
Because, you temporarily drops everything amount t of aggro if you get bop
Trash go brrrrrrrp
I had so much fun on my old war on weeks like this
Necrotic was non wxistent for my dwarf kyrian prot warrior
Super funny cuz my ally guild would have me dps as war except for necro weeks. Necro weeks I was the tank
Holy shit, 5 min banner
On bosses..100% means 100%..
Hope you topped the meterš
Died at last phase, ppl took to long to remove the debuff and they rez the other tank š¦
Still made 84%
Ret pal doing 27k dpsš¤
Huge
without PI
I always see people asking for ret buffs lol
I dont see any problem
chain deaths the whole fight
or well
from 8-9 mins
the ret would have had 100% uptime on wings basically
Spamming divine storm
Amount of rage spent to do this = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfoj7t7NZkI

[Original Description]
...
Looks to me like Urh heal works normally with necrotic
44 stacks
thats usual
Yeah notice I'm topped by the first tick of urh after necrotic falls. I'm really loving pwar this patch and still gearing/learning it but it's a blast so far.
I'm trying to unlearn by bad habits from playing bdk as I learn pwar
Pump that rage
By pressing buttons!
then u arent
Short answer: get angrier but don't waste your rage
5 minute banner is super easy on anduin
Is avoidance quite good to stack?
I have like 10% avoidance.
or I shouldnt bothered?
no
anything you can avoid with avoidance is either a skill issue (puddles/swirlies) or a healer issue (raid rot)
Reducing the raid dmg from boss stack on jailer and obliteration?
in top of all keys 
or tank mechanics on jailer
avoidance is giga there
yeah or that
but its good for specific mechs
but ilvl also gives you survival
so you dont ever look to stack avoidance
U can hit 100% of the time, don't need to stay away for any mechanic
It's not easy, but it's just pressing buttons
So, 272 weapon with avoidance or 278 weapon without?
Avoidance works on aoe mechanics, so it's generally preferred for raid purposes
278, easily
On weapons and shield you only care about ilvl
and by pressing LS on CD
also helps a lot
I am more impressed with the downtime. More like isnt there platforms and shit?
Don't w8 for ur team
The actual TP is fast, but ppl don't go at the same time
Still there is RP from plat to plat
IP is on my wheel up. I roll that shit like a motherfucker
What key level?
25
Impressive, very nice.
now lets see tim allens uptime
Kewk
I timed my first 19 last night ! Felt good definitely seeing progress from just reading chat š
20 next sir
It's so gooood
i'm so used to having banner up that when i play anything else i'm like
hey why am i so goddamn slow
hello new to tanking, what soulbind and traits do we go for as kyrian?
Go necro itās more fun 
Maybe he doesnt have any t4 set yet
I play necro but since my group needs a kyrian for nw im going kyr
I didnāt mean that in a bad way I just like necro
Yy, but high uptime banner is the result of t4p
Mikanikos btw
I was looking at some of the top kyrian prot warrs on raiderio and theyre going for kleia
I guess it's only for this week?
its specifically only for this week, but i dont recommend it for anyone really
not needed
an extra spear so you can kite is probably just as useful for necrotic
and more damage
necrotic is a joke affix don't waste dps to make it easier
Some mobs cant be cced normally though, you need extra speed for that
im looking to tank my group's 21 nw but like i feel uncomfrotable not playing necro so yeah. Plus i main dps and kinda new to tanking somewhat higher keys. Also this week's affix combo aint helping :|
