Then one of the dps or heals go kyrian instead of you it’s simple as that but affix this week are actually not bad use the spiteful on a range to charge away from mobs or leap or if your a void elf use your port there’s plenty of options to get away it’s just knowing a safe stack to get away and what you feel comfortable with
I’m definitely not a expert though and just learning as I go just explaining my experiences more then anything
This week that I play as fury, what I do if I see my tank has stacks, I challengin shout and heroic leap.
lol holy shit please don't do that
thats pretty risky tech
no it's just fucking stupid
Unless ur tank is also prot wadr
why cant you make your tank do that instead
gotta consider who we're talking to here
Anyway thank u all for the inputs :')
That’s a death wish
To be fair, i have tested this on low keys (15-17) with good results.
It’s still scary deathwish chilling
If the tank doesnt know how to kite, let me do its job for him.
at least 2 people a seething
every time you do that
arent you literally the guy who didnt wanna play tank this week because you didnt wanna kite
Correct, but I dont want to waste time, dying. And i literally have run 20 runs of nw.
woah! 20!
it's a terrible idea if one of my dps did that i'd tell them i'm leaving if they did it again
you ruin your own damage and the damage of anyone who has aoe effects on the ground
It is quite annoying when you need an item and all you get is finger.
@urban portal !
🍿
do you want me to copy paste again my speach?

what is a prot warriors favorite dps spec
ww and enha
is ww hard to play
Spam crane kick
how much of the chi spheres are part of the spec, is it constant having to monitor that crap
sort of like rogue combo points
Kinda only thing I know about windwalker is you don’t wanna hit the same button twice or something to that nature
yes monks key resource is unfortunately part of the spec
clearly you havent looked at the python notebook
Also WW playstyle is

O I have not
it goes crazy
I'm sleeping on this week havent run any dungeons as a 10 hour workday destroys mental energy.
I was looking forward to it as well.
Thank you so much for the long feedback! Will definitely work on that and for sure next week we'll kill them 😄 qq, what's bss?
Luckily noone blamed me more than I blamed myself for the wipe at 1% health 
You think this shield is any good? I am on the fence if having a regular shield with constant secondary stats is the better pick.
BSS is blood spattered scale
is equivalent to 285 shield block value
gut feel is that shield is good for Raid, 278 shield better for M+ due to stats, but probably small, completely unsure though
both are very minor
I got one of those shields but can’t say I’ve tried it
The on use effect is probably a meme i guess?
You wanna keep it on Defense mode 100% of the time
the offence mode is so bad that it's honestly funny
i think it's 37 damage to melee attackers
at 278 ilvl
Thorns ripoff lol
emphasis on off
It does a reasonably chunky ST hit when you use it to get it back to Def mode
because that's what it always is
Attack mode 
its good not as good as something the same ilvl with stats i keep in defensive mode and its better in m+ than raid because u take far more blockable damage
I quite like the concept of that shield, but the execution is piss-poor
they legit forgot to put an extra 0 at the end of the damage in offence mode
There you go
It does a reasonably chunky ST hit when you use it to get it back to Def mode
So I simmed it. Feels sour that it does less (-170) Single Target than a 272 Shield.
I like the gimmick that you could potentially save one from death though. The Defensive Mode on-use is a 31K shield.
its like an extra 4% DR on blockable attacks
tbh i should probably put it on my bars just in case i could save someone
Just wish you could skip out on the offensive mode to be honest.
bring back chi as a resource please
Was thinking more in the sense that it wouldn't switch over to Offensive Mode once you use it to (potentially) save somebody.
C tier MDI incoming, 20 minutes
Ty for reminder
Would love to see a protections warrior in there for Atleast once
besides doing weekly whats best way to fill up ally % quest?
WQ probably? chest and rares don't give shit for completion really
patterns?
just do WQ's every day & worldboss
kill a rare/loot a chest on your way
if you wanna rush it you can do the dailies
48%, was at 2% when i started yesterday
Rare gives about 5%
finally unlocked flying so then i did 46%
World boss gives 20%
Been busy farming netherwing rep
Got the achievement for defeating Skyshatter👀
i got caught up in LFR thought because i needed the points to do my m+ chest piece, thats a really underrated source of cosmic fluxes, each boss you kill is garunteed to drop 150, and then the big elites drop around 100 each
you can get about 1.5--2k just from clearing LFR and it's trash
Chests give 200 when you loot for the first time
cuz, i've got 5/5 4/5 non lfr set, and 291 signet and 291 rep
thats alot of fluxes
Signet on a prot👀
for arms/fury cuz WotB sucks and doesn't proc off 4set
Arms dont use signet anymore
i can learn either treblim understanding or sopranian learning, soon which is more important for ZM?
i need either 141 or 181 robot points, no idea what robot buddy does besides that i need him for a few quests
Important for what?
Because both are pretty unimportant
U just want the one that get u the mounts
You get em all eventually
the first 3 ones on the second row, you get 1 rank of them and they unlock more WQ in more locations, which i assume, is more/faster rep
between that and skollex shield which one is better?
oh my bad
I didn't scroll up that much
but thanks for answering my question nonetheless ❤️
Thats only thing that exists in m+ cloaks and rings and mostly bad trinkets
can anyone link WA man managing our outbust and what not? is there one for banner uptime to?
Alpha brawl👀
Hey how good is the shield from vigilant guardian?
Scroll up a bit
why are suddenly so many people asking about this shield
legit like 4 people today alone 
is it an ilvl upgrade?
if yes
it's the best shield you can use
if no then it's slightly better defensively at same ilvl and worse offensively
ty was just asking for my co-tank 🙂
why can't he do his own research
cos hes a warrior xD
I mean so are we....
I can wholeheartedly recommend this channel for your warrior friend
Very knowledgable and skilled pwars here

damn on 16+ healer only did 3.2k hps
did you die tho
I got wrecked on nw
yeah after second boss i died a lot lol
aha, he did die
damn used every damn CD and still got owned by mobs
any log or video or explanation what you think went wrong?
i thik i got so focused on survival that i forgot to do basic things like sb effectively
Then you didn’t focus on survival
i only have 21% haste which is killing me i think
no matter how hard i try i cant get banner to go over 45 seconds lol.Even if i try on a dummy
no lol
your stats are irrelevant
then you're majorly messing up somewhere
If u post a log will be easier to help
your character sheet or name & server could help too
Yeah ill post the next log
Icarium_Skullcrusher
i think i have a skill gap..will take time to get better
that i believe is his profile, he has 3/4
@gray iris my man
what is 3/4
Good name
your shield slam casts per minute should be at least double that
you're missing ravager casts for sure
yeah i need to work hard
Don't forget idiots bursting Vy for their personal DPS instead of taking Urh
my DoS is only 5 minutes longer and I have 20 more ravagers
your avatar casts are really low
you only used last stand once
you should be popping that in tandem with banner
do a +33, WTF you have no life LOSER
BATTLEFIELD FRIENDS - Colonel 100 (Season Finale)
BFF SHIRTS: https://hankandjed.spreadshirt.com/
The BFFs trade in the Noob for a Colonel 100.
You should be the top of casts
Oh damn... Yeah i do miss out on revenges a lot
no sex = + kills, sex = -kills
\When i do ip's i run out of rage

97 shield block casts seems low as well
mine is only 5 minutes longer and I have 192
rage is a non-issue when running necro and 4p
Do I tell him about the forbidden macro
Damn i want to get to this level..
Macro IP to revenge?
well really it's a non-issue with 2p
what is 2p and 4p?
i dont know what that is lol
I'd wager you're wasting outburst on thunderclap
i keep tc on cd
Thunderclap is basically a trap button when Outburst is up
NL is very new to me.. I have only played kyrian this whole game...
and the increased rage makes it even more worthwhile
doesn't matter what covenant outburst should 95% of the time be used on shield slam
Is there anything to be said to never use thunderclap? Simply use the global on something more useful? Like unbind thunderclap altogether?
just revenge instead
then again lose the 5 rage..
just realized that is dumb
Yeah i need to fix a lot of things
focus on filling every global with something
and more specifically
abc
I have been mindlessly doing dungeons without looking at the data
hitting shield slam as soon as it's up
focus on those two things first
ok got you
Well
Actually
Just focus on hitting Shield Slam on CD
the global thing is kinda a farce since we don't have a filler
shieldslam THE spec
i waste a lot of time pressing avatar then ravager and then i do sb and ss
Use Ignore Pain to help you from capping rage
ravager isn't a waste of time
nor is avatar
- ravager is huge rage
- avatar is off GCD
So is shield block
pre place ravager and then charge in
yeah now i understand...will focus on ss....
sometimes i press revenge when ss is up
then i run out of rage and wait for either ss or tc to show up
damn your rage is almost always over 25
you gotta spend rage to gain it back
look at the number
thats what my mom told me
he doubles rage gen
always keep around 30 to use shield block
more than double
The main thing is: try to improve 1 thing at a time
If u try to juggle all the tips ur gonna fumble
shield slam is going to be the biggest rage generation fix
hence why I'm saying to focus on it
Do a key and focus on using SS on CD
alright thanks so much for the insight man
And never IP if ur not gonna overcap
this i do everytime when i panic
if you panic you're going to sabotage yourself as prot
as prot you have to use things before the damage comes out not after
yeah i literally thought of it as a survival skill
If u shield wall when ur at 30% health, u pressed it too late
its hard to get in habit but you want to hit SW early rather than late
i sometimes take huge damage despite sb up
Not everything is blockable
That's why we have SR, Demo Shout
And kicks
^
But we are one of the tanks that suffer most from lack of kicks
I like Griff's idea of doing shit before taking damage rather than reacting
That's the mindset you have to have if you want to play prot successfully in anything other than content you overgear or is tuned to be easy
Like in DoS
DoS mobs are crazy difficult
the caster pack on the left before ardenweald and on the right before hakkar
we can't block spells
and they chain cast
so ideally you roll into those packs with defensives available
and use shield wall before you get chunked
then once that's down, maybe pop your scale
shiel wall is only 8 seconds
use Spell Reflect
then if you don't have anything left in the tank for defensives get the healers barkskin
alright, you have been a huge help man... for now ill focus on ss
the pack shouldn't live super long
i seem to miss out on the ss cast a lot
yep
just focus on that
then we can move onto fixing other things
🙂
one step at a time and before you know it you'll see a huge difference
Now with Wo we don't need to do those 2 hard pulls in DOS one after another
haha yeah...
Or use hero on the first pull
And all ur defensives for the second one
And remember that u have a fear and a stun for the casters
But ur team need to kick
yeah i get you.... Shadowcore cast is what i fear the most..
Honestly with Urh those packs aren't even difficult back to back. You'll have Shield Wall for both
There are so many things happening at the same time during these pulls
part of it is getting used to everything
Which is why focusing on one thing at a time is helpful, at some point that one thing that you had to focus on becomes second nature
My group usually dumps an Earth Elemental on the first platform in order to soak the bonesoldiers shadow damage instacast
yeah this is what life is i guess xd
eventually you instinctively just do and that leaves you with a lot of situational awareness
we all had to start somewhere
I used to be a green parsing Andy who asked a lot of stupid questions in here
yup illl keep on going but will never give up lol
The important thing is to just set goals for yourself and continually grind to get better
Tackle them one thing at a time.
The upside of knowing you have a lot to work on is that you have lots of goals 
yeah true
I've been slapping one problem at a time to get better and better.
if only I could get as good as @jagged pier
note to self if you get the teleport mark dont run to a trap on artificer

Went from 3k wasted rage in a dungeon to under 1k now.
fighting games were good for my learning mindset
Still working on improving it.
same actually
"how do i react to all of this" you can't and you shouldn't try
I was the most competitive I ever was in Siege when I picked up For Honor and really grinded that game to try and get super good
Looking at the logs I would say spend time on a dummy making sure you get every global filled.
I only started playing wow like a year ago but this game is addictive af lol
most globals*
Best way to initially improve your cast count.
True enough
we do occasionally have dead globals
Stupid outburst ready and only Thundercats available.
mostly when you have outburst and shield slam isn't up but you can't revenge either because you almost have a second one

how do you know your every global is filled?
That's my biggest waste for global
try to hit something as soon as that rotational clock animation on your buttons goes full circle
every time
you can start mashing a little before to make sure the server recognizes your button press asap
oh okay...
Details tells you how many times you use abilities. Over a set amount of time you should have set number of casts
this is some high level shit lol
just Always Be Pressing
So if you did it in a minute you can do the math.
anyone able to roast my log, i started playing prot this week after playing fury for most of sl. i feel like my damage is relatively low, anddd i never press shield wall or probably any of my cds enough, but not sure if thats gapping my damage that hard or if im just not pressing enough in general
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/H1nZR3FQ9rJGbaq6#fight=2&type=summary
Honestly the just presses buttons meme is super honest
This isn't bad at all for just starting this week tbh
Idk if ur taking hits on the back
Blocked hits
are we looking at the same log
Honestly your doing really similar to me and I've mailed prot a long time. There are better than me but you have a great start.
wasting a fair bit of rage and not charging/intervening nearly enough is probably the 2 worst offenders
CPM is quite low as well
you hover hits, not the bar
Oh
Ok
Did wrong for an entire season
At least my blocks are higher than i thought
You and me both hahahaha
I just realized I'm doing a lot better than I thought.
more revenj
13cpm
vs my 16cpm
shield slam looks fine
blocked hits are fine but could be better
i think overall this log shows you know what to do, you just need more practice to do it. intervene definitely low, a bit of wasted rage, tighten those up and you'll get more revenj to get more uptime etc etc
Pick a problem and start slapping it until it goes away and pick another.
you could have better usage of outburst on shield slam vs TC for sure @next shadow
how do i find that in logs?
gotcha thankyou
It does happen some on accident but if you put it on CD at about 6 or 7 stacks of seeing red that will improve that.
everything seems fine
yeah last time i prot tanked was when clap did all the dam in bfa so im just used to spamming it
just some small tweaks to get better
You are doing better than a lot who pick it up. @next shadow
There are some terrifying logs that show up here. My first few in this current raid as I was getting used to tanking again.
Since I have no more raid logs as I left my guild all I have to check my improvement is dungeon logs.
Glad you showed me the details thing for banner because I was getting mad at how my logs where looking for banner uptime. @chilly brook
More like bad covenant
Only kind of trinkets there are.
Playing fury so it's not the worst in the world bit can be better
It's literally the worst
It's less of a sin then playing venthyr as prot
venthyr is the worst, but also the coolest. so why not get 80 renown
When I've been doing dungeon keys that have required me to dps I've just been staying necro.
Sure I could burst harder as kyrian but I'm lazy as fuck. Why swap.
I started Venthyr, then Kyrian when swapping opened up, then Necro in anticipation of this patch
fuck night fae who care
id like to get the flying mounts and other crap from all the covenants if i could but meh
some of it not al
Oh, ur fur
Fury
Srry
Ancient aftershock slaps I played it as fury all last tier. Beat our other fury on most fights.
Just assumed u were prot
wrong color blue though
Nah, im prot yogi is fury in that ss
Venthyr has great cosmetics
then kyrian and last one night fae
anyway if you're not pushing top keys or currently mythic raiding you can really do whatever you want for fun and there's no point sneering at someone for it
i like all the aesthetics outside of NF but i can 100% totally agree that style is for some
It looks so weird that NF armor
NF has bad armor.
Man being told prot warrior has the highest erhps in the prot pal discord
I didnt even have the patience to begin to correct them
Lol
lmao
Like thats warriors whole schtick
Paladin is "meta" it has to be better.
HAS to be
That was my previous guilds argument
but we have no self healing 
I mean im gearing one for a fun side project hence why i was in that disc at all
Cloth looks good
But im definitely feeling the lower mitigation compared to my warrior
True
BEcAusE PRoT waRr BaD
wat the hell is erhps
How much attention you need basically
Guys, i need some help. Im good on lover keys, below 20 but bad on higher keys. I need some advice, about routes, where to get a good route.. and more. Ty all
Yea logs are fairly misleading for that since it includes non combat time in keys
I think the main thing to consider on keys from 20 above is "what is my group capable of that I can take advantage on this dungeon"
which is why having a preset group of friends/acquaintances helps a lot
You want to know the secret to higher keys?
IP?
Don’t let off the gas
I want :)
yep
Chain pull
keep that banner 24/7 boy
Find out which packs you can double or triple
100% uptime in the dungeon
yeah chain pulling helps too
well where I was headed was that. Depending on your comp you know what you can or can't chain pull
Cuz as soon as taht banner goes down its dead key mate (<- that's a jk btw)
I honestly don’t tailor to comp
NW. i did a big pull with bl at start, right where is spear pack, then i charge boss
Maybe no golem?
oh noes, he is kyr
And he got pissed? I dunno puga be pugs
And i think i fuck the route
maybe an emergency came up?
No just leave
yeah that's what I mean
95% of the time it dps leave it’s usually because the rest of the group has low damage tbh
emergency came up, had to alt f4 leave quit
In my experience
I don't pug that much so I don't have experience in that sense
And they just don’t think it’s worth their time
I'm stuck tanking for my guild atm
I pug
Dont have group
And best healer for prot war is?
When i pug, wichone to look for
Any of them?
Haha
The one that does more dmg
I mean in a realistic sense
Cause u don't need heal, ur a beast
I’m gonna say something
And you’re not going to like it
You take a shaman
Not because of the healing
But because they bring an interrupt

shaman utility is pretty gamer
Actually u would like different healers for different dungeons cause the dispel restrictions
But shaman has hero and interupt, and that is king
U don't need anything
Ppl were bringing hpriest for every keys in MDI
not because of dispel
Because they bring tons of dmg
And that's all that matter
Dmg
Not really true
If you don’t bring a decurse to HoA you’re trolling
Poison/disease cleanse is huge in PF
what is the CD for each of the classes that can do this?
hunter, druid, rogue, i know for 300% can do it
i'd like to guess that monk, mage, blood elf maybe could do those, but unsure
paladin
hunters and rogues cannot decurse
nor diseases
hunter rogue druids soothe
belf is purge
]
still no idea
kek
youve never seen it?
theres alot of red circles in video games....
its similar to castigate, a big red circle around you
Its literally called curse of obliteration
pizza mechanics, a slice, like a cone and peperoni, some times olives, usually cheese, tons of cheese, and tomatoe paste
wtb ui roast
made this today after using a premade for a bit
i mean its not bad if it works for u
rightmost is trinket 
ui is literally just for yourself theres ppl pushing 27s with atrocious ui's that work for them
World of warcraft: It's very simple.
ok i think i prefer mine over urs 
"what do you mean you couldn't see the lightning circle???"
i see why you have 0 idea what curse of obliteration is now
in fairness the people in high content that have atrocious ui's have a reason for it
my action bar got lonely
aui is good cuz no thought abt ui ever again

aka they either have to have information displayed for themselves or someone else to call out and raid lead or lead the key
My cap weakarua
i wanna see that shit in a raid
ah so the luxthos one
yeah but i just mean how it looks literally doesnt matter if it works for the person
not that theyre bad at making uis
see what it looks like when you got 20 guys on screen an bunch of adds + boss + spells
I customized it instead of it just saying cap 🙂 I wanted to do some self insulting
I’m not good at weakaruas what’s a little self hate ya know
u gotta put urself out there to improve with it
but if you have questions the weakaura discord helps
why on earth do you have friendly health bars + enormous raid frames
When did they fix merciless bonegrinder to work with Ravager @_@
i think it always has
yogi's ui is absolute insanity its best not to think about it
I swear Meciless bonegrinder wasn't working with ravager for the longest time
well definitely this whole patch because i came in and said "woah bonegrinder works with ravager!" and everyone was like "yeah no shit"
how is it wrong? i got rid of the weak auras, also reduced chat size and merged the 2, it just didn't save
i have the IP and SB bar but thats like really litterally it and a potion bar if im low hp, necrotic one
always, but the playstyle is disgusting and works against the tier set
it was even more horrible and annoying last season
Deswind tried it in 9.1.5
So it worked then
okay, i have the loggerhead addon and have downloaded the warcraft logs app. I am enabling like it asked every time i start a run. when i try and upload a log it take me to files on my computer.... where are they stored? struggling to upload logs
there should be a log folder in ur wow folder
ive read jakeys thing... doesnt answer my question
it literally does
All these options will store your logs in your wow file inside the retail folder and the log file.
yea but how do you get there
you go to your wow folder?
inside the battlenet folder most likely
just like you access any other program folder on your computer
how do you get to the wow folder
in the file explorer....
this sound right:
-This Pc
-Local disc (C:)
-Program files (x86)
-Wow folder
-Retail
When you've closed the logging process or exited WoW, go to upload the log using the Warcraft Logs Uploader. Use the Browse feature to locate the text file. This can be found in: Program Files -> World of Warcraft - > Logs.
yes
Having friendly nameplates is the worst thing imo totally useless info and huge screen clutter
when i click on logs my options are Blizzard browser and raider io logs archive which are both blank
i swear yogi ui is only to fuck with people he screenshots/records and then turns it off
cuz theres no way someone actually plays like that
did you type /combatlog in game before doing whatever you were trying to log?
i get a prompt everytime i run a dung from loggerhead asking if i want to enable logging the dung
and i cllick enable but ive never typed /combatlog
it probably does it for you
never used loggerhead
just/combatlog then after whatever I'm doing tab out to the client and upload a log from it
it really should be that simple
the logs will be stored under retail in the log folder
just choose that folder from the browse option in the uploader
man i feel like a boomer
unfortunately I can't give much more of a detailed instruction or show you what I do since I'm not at my PC
In the retail folder there is a folder called logs. The file will be a text file named combatlog...
I'm not at my computer or I would share some Screencast for you. Loggerhead is great because it's automatic.
so, i caught my self doing at least 2 empowered TC's, but i know you have to do it on SS
realize mistake go again
if you cant because SS is off cd are you just supposed to try to hit revenge to proc SS?

yes
even straight up wait
rather than OB ur tc
gotta break the habit

Dont make me feel old with that song😑
Hi, I'm trying to understand prot's playstyle, are you trying to maintain 100% uptime on ignore pain?
No
Ignore pain goes away when you get meleed once my your grandma
Ignore pain is there to dump rage
best m+ trinkets for prot?
Probably blood scale and old warrior souls or codex
Sac is also good from what ive heard
Any combo of these three is ideal:
If you're Necro and you chain-pull like a gorilla, Old Warrior is nice
but for dungeons where you literally can't do that, like caster wing of ToP, or Spires, it's turbo-ass
If you are running keys where you aren’t worried about dying than overpowering crystal with so Leah trinket can help you a lot on damage
Soleah's is arguably better than OWS because of that limitation
yeah, very true
And if you are playing Necro Prot, it is pretty hard to die on most weeks
Necrotic-Fort, it's pretty easy to die on any tank
scale, afe, the dps phial trinket from PF, the sack from TV, meat hook is okay was my opinion, generally speaking something offensive more than defensive
scale is great because it does a big absorb and a bunch of aoe damage, i'd pick it over just about anything
some pepega mode activated boss positioning here (we live cuz its a 10)
hard to recall whats good or bad for m+ besides mythic OWS
no, on the left is IP and SB timers, so i don't let them run out, about the only WA's for abilities i have, bunch of others for various stuff, necrotic, reflect
why not center them so you dont have to lookm down in corner?
i've never really thought about it too much, but i think i've always stared at buttons/hpbar/debuffs only when i get panicked
Is it possible to use jailer gavel on use, get buff, then switch back to sword and shield?
I'm pretty sure 8f you get into combat your equiped gear gets locked and you can't change anything, unless it's just weapon slots
Like Jotungeirr?
I have no clue if you can cast sequence an item being equipped or not
Macro
I was going to attempt to type the macro but it would be nonsense that doesn't do anything and already say enough dumb things, was gunna ay here but in general even
how good is
Prot war feels so weird compared to blood dk
Feels weird to press more than 1 button?
And mitigate the damage instead of just healing it all back
Shields look sick as hell though
Does 0 damage and heals for decent amount
Weird to actually mitigate damage?
You can always change weapons in combat.
Have been able to since vanilla.
They did make a change this xpac, to allow weapon swapping in mythic plus.
Because of shield skills in the unpruning.
Yeah you can swap with exceptions
got a bell instead of the cloak 3 weeks in a row now 🙂
So my prot warrior has always been orc. Created him back in bc. I'm thinking of race changing him. Which horde race is good for tanks?
Orc
I was throwing around the idea of Tauren or highmountain Tauren
TBH there's practically nothing in it. Vulpera Nose for Trouble is nice, BElf AoE dispel has its uses, Tauren Stompy thing, Troll Haste... just play for the transmog is my advice (which means Orc, IMO)
I'm Mag'har, FTR
the tier list goes: what you like to look at > vulpera > rest
Lol yea, for xmog I'm gonna farm mythic drazalor dinosaur set and mythic antorus set. Using both with different color variations of legionbreaker mage tower legion weapons
its such a miniscule difference between the races it has pretty much 0 impact
Yea, good point. So basically xmog over anything
Thats fair. I'll prob stay with orc. Already changing shaman to zandalari troll
those are both good options
HMT is the best tank race from a numerical standpoint, for horde
it's a pretty slim difference even between best and worst, so I would say even in the high-end you can just go with aesthetics and be fine
only real bonus that has an outsized impact is Arcane Torrent, in my experience
but I couldn't imagine playing Warrior/DK/Druid without Bull Rush
really if u care about race u go vulpera for a tank char tbh
Hmt raid vulpera m+ or what
i mean raid doesnt really matter at all tbh
but vulp is best for m+ for sure nose and bag are insane
The best Vulpera racial is the 4 extra bag slots though
Finally did a key this week and man kiting off Necrotic stacks sure kills Banner uptime for me
Didn't catch why exactly, but had a few deaths for the key, mostly dh would seems to go poof, I believe e it was spitefuls
u play warrior the fall dmg racial is what i like to call shit
With mikanikos it was more value if you wanted the DR but yes obviously its a meme
was
I'd like to vote for either cow stomp dwarves active racial, or zandalar troll Racial
Bubble heal to 100% as paladin and then loh your self and bop later on, seems really good for them
What makes vulpera so good for tanks? I just read their passives, nothing stood out
nose for trouble is a 10% dr
Ah
as far as defencive trinkets go. is pocket protoform worth using if you got nothing better ?
Nightborne :>

look how pretty

Oh if you farm BoD set, you should defo go Nightborne then
hey guys I got unity legendary when I completed the final chapter... But the problem is it is 262ilvl only...Now I purchased the 291 set but it says i need to purchase the legendary.. It will take months to get revered with enlightened..Anyone has a solution to this?
Shouldn't take months. Been a while since I've done ZM, but it was somewhere around 3weeks with full farm every day.
Raid bosses give rep, I believe jailer kill quest gives over 1k and can be done in LFR. There are also chapters after the unity leggo that give rep.
damn this time based content of wow is annoying just for the sake of engagement
It certainly will not take months for revered with enlightened, you can do it in 2 weeks if you really tryhard it, 3 if you just do the obvious stuff
all you had to do was do daily world quests / world boss weekly / weekly bar for 2-3 weeks the first time around for revered. not even counting all the rep you would get from the raid itself
it was like half an hour tops daily + raid tme
i can still get revered but its taking a bit of time
Has anyone whipped up a macro for the Sepulcher shield by any chance?
Dang, lol. That's unfortunate. It looked like a nice idea.

seems like it suits a hpal or shaman best TBH
Yea, prob nor for warr though. Was gonna make my mage nightbourne
then im 5/5 non LFR
I see... I will start doing the world quests.
wait its the legs mb, can't even trade it to the DK, ilvl upgrade
Nightborne war is rare go for it, mogs are beautiful too
Hi. I've been leveling a protection warrior after tanking as paladin and druid. Both of these classes have a "filler" ability. Swipe and hammer of righteous. A aoe melee to use inbetween cooldowns.
Warrior is taking some getting used to. Not having that ability since you take the devestator passive at level 15.
Is this something you get used to. Or is the something I should be filling that gap with.
Naw you just have downtime at lower levels
You can choose to not take devastator early
So when I get to mythic levels, I'll be using ignore pain and low levels just use revenge as the filler?
yeah levelling warrior is not remotely similar to playing warrior
Ignore pain exists to dump excess rage
we're extremely hard carried by borrowed power
We don't have any "filler" abilities
Later on you won't have enough time to even press your normal rotational abilities
Cuz you'll generate so much dumbfuck rage that you can't spend it fast enough
What borrowed power do we have this expansion?
Sorry I've returned after a 2 year gap.
At low levels revenge procs arnt exactly common. I presume when doing mythic content. Ignore pain is used for dumping rage. And revenge only on procs which will be more common?
And have to resort to spaing IP purely to avoid rage capping
Revenge procs are capped at 3ppm
Through tierset, legendary and covenant you'll be literally bombarded with rage
So you'll have like 30cpm on revenge and IP, alone combined
(casts per minute)
and you get extra Revenge procs from Reprisal
Actually shit to have free revenges
I just IP more
Cancel aura the proc
Fucks with banner uptime
Nah that's too much of a dps loss with BSC
Getting those 9k revenge crits is kinda joocy
But it would feel better
Just need something to bind to me "e" keybind. Which I used for swipe, hammer of righteous. And bloodlust as fury.
I didn't realise Ignore pain was spammed so much. Doesn't seem like it helps much (hence the spam I suppose)
It does help if you spam it
We can shittalk IP as much as we want, but the fact remains that alot of tankiness comes from the bazillion of IPs we get
I have thunderclap as e
But ye IP does quite a bit this patch
hey guys, how do i make weakaura for necrotic stacks? And what to do when they get high?
I don't have a WA
I just randomly notice my health actually going down and I see on the default elvui debuff position that I'm at 45 stacks
So I just shockwave and run
Or heroic leap and run
so for how long do you run?
Say what you will
About 3-4 seconds
But that’s almost a million damage not taken because of IP
@chilly brook I have thunderclap as Q at the mo. What's your Q keybind?
then those stacks reset?
Q is always stun for every class
ok thanks
I’ve just made kinda a universal setup for all my keybinds
Thanks for all the help. Will keep practicing. And hopefully get used to it. Enjoying paladin tank. But warrior looks awesome and feels great to play so far
I.e. taunt is always the first button on my mouse, interrupt the second, slows on third, 4th is a utility slot etc.
I try keep them similar Aswell on every char. Q is thunderclap. Similar to consecration as pld. Hammer of righteous doesn't have anything comparable.
Depending on covenant of choice. Might be an option there
hammer of righteous is much more similar to tc than consecration is
dogshit abilities that do 2 damage that you hate pressing
But you gotta cuz it generates resources
Might try TC on "e" then. Find a new Q keybind. (whirlwind as fury but obviously not used as prot).
My e is for trinket on prot
(I rarely play on use trinkets)
So it's mostly a dead keybind 
C is shockwave
Shift 3 is 
Is r
kick is hotkeyed to thumb on mouse
Im contemplating swapping Shieldblock to Shift F and putting LS on c
speeeeed that way
LS is shift mouse 5
Kick stays F
Are we particularly good necrotic tanks?
Is there a good necrotic tank?
Depends on who you ask
But we technically are the best
Bdk is crazy cuz of 70% parry chance cuz drw + Str stacking
Pally is crazy cuz of bop/bubble
Pwar is crazy cuz we don't take dmg cuz of block + CDs so we don't rly on healing for prolonged periods of time
Bear 
Bear is good in ultra pulls cuz of UFR, but bears don't play UFR anymore
Oh they dont??
Nop
basically every tank has their own way to be very good at necrotic
The dot thing now or whah
because it's ez
They play sleeper
Funny
Wait nvm apparently they still play UFR
Sleeper was pvp iirc
If you ask reddit and Twitch Chat pwar is F
F stands for fuck em 
And depending on who you ask again, some might say pwar is potentially better than bdk
Who would answer that
I'm having fun with it. Still learning and obvs doing low keys in the process
Fun wise pwar is an s tier tank
But it's fun to pump with spear or being a banner boi
For sure
All it needs to be S+ tier is unstoppable force to do more bonus damage to tclap 🙂
ravager is boring. I wanna stop the earth
ravager is cool af though
Do yous always place ravager? Or for quickness have a macro to place at your feet?
@cursor
Erga has @ Player iirc so either works
@sweet summit shit macro haver
So having it place at my feet would work? Or am I best doing at cursor macro
Apparently it works to have it at the feet, but I like to use it on range to pull a pack im planning on charging in to
I can do either. For most purposes the @heavy mirage option is fine
I use to be an ITF lover in keys until necro+ravager equals sauce
Rava>itf even for low keys
ravager for sure as necro prot for keys because it gains you rage
@cursor gang
i do not 
had @cursor since bfa :/
Who is the prio target on Spires on the pull before Ventunax?
squad leader
nah thats wrong 100% C:
Think we will get any more buffs this season ?
Though we aren’t “bad” haven’t we been the worst of the 6 all of shadowlands ?
What tank are we better than ?
bear
well in raid we're better than pally bear vdh 100%
in m+ defo better than bear
rest hard to tell
we are literally upper middle of the pack, which is where we've actually been for the whole expansion just the ppl that make the tier lists dont know how to play it so they rate it low
well we are on par with monk in m+ i would say
which means we are pretty high up there
i mean hes been streaming it
would rather he didnt tho keep us under the radar
nani?????
probs because of the charge KEKW
dunno but the vod is gone
