i have informed my raid and they know now that if that boss is 20% im gonna press execute and if allah wills it i will live
Inshallah
you don't even lose tankiness during executes
even if all you do is spam execute
you still get SB from rep
what slot do you wanna put your 260 boe on?
whatever your lowest is right now tbh, you should replace those over time
is seismic build the most dps as prot?
It is, but youโre losing alot of rage from not going with reprisal
i have i
but since im doing low lvl ones
13-15 and spamming mists
ahah
im doing 10k as kyrian tho, i have necro 80 too, but its pugs, seismic with kyrian to clear also stack or should i go necro?
crafted ring or neck u talking about?
i went for neck slot personally
Not on warr (yet) but I've done up to 27/28 on my VDH if you need any dungeon specific help
Not sure I could answer if it's smth about warr specifically tho
I donโt get nearly enough use out of reprisal in raid
I wasnโt the one asking
I'm so tired of not timing because of clownshoes DPS. FDK not hitting mind freeze, dying on every boss 5s in to avoidable effects. Enh shaman literally just AFKing on me while he stares at his bars during Ophyron DPS phase and gets his guts inverted by the full set of orb stacks because the fucker can't press a directional key.
Why is this +20 so fucking hard.
fucking tank stopped me from moving 2m to the left
Finally joined 3k club! ๐ฅณ ๐

Based dwarf

A shit meant to tag kuzu
@torpid junco see this
Heheh fricken sweet lois
@torpid junco im trying to get 24s done, just got all on 22 but this week has been very painful so far
So say I want to try this Necrolord tanking thingy, any good resources to read to make good use of it ?
I don't know, I remember someone speaking of a special opener or something
No, u play normal
Just don't waste time between pulls
And remember that u block while u channel flashcraft
Gotta go fast
well the opener with necro u just need to manage your rage more effectiently
it just requires more IP spam really
right for the last time it doesnt matter if your overcapping IP with 4pc
we used to have a pin about this
Wasting IP is normal
U don't want to waste rage
When you swap covenants do you "freeze" anima, companions and so on when you leave ? So that you find them back when you rejoin ?
good
The only thing u lose is active mission on the mission table
All about tmogs
Actually, the mission table provides me with herbs and meat for my consumable needs
And gold selling those runes
Lol I'm not exalted yet so I use them
Thank god ppl still use those so i can keep selling them
I rlly like the idea of getting all the meat and herbs u want for free and not needing to waste time gathering them. Sad to see mission table go

The only buff race in ally is draenei right?
what is a buff race
Kultirans are fat
i think he means can buff the party
But go dwarf
like, you bring a buff
Buff = muscular 
All warriors can use bshout
my kyrian steward is pretty muscular
Dworf then
They are fat but in a strong way
i dont know the exacat term in english
Tail?
LOL
Idk what they though when created lightforged draenei
It's the same shit but lighter
what is IP ? (when I read waste IP)
ignore pain
Even iron forge dwarf is different enough
k thx
Draenai look so fucking bad
Dwarf is by far the most manly race
It's either coomers or idiots 
@tropic linden i played a naked tauren in bfa but he still was too big to get through doors in tol dagor when i used avatar
which kinda led me to play dwarf
This is the dream
i was so tilted when i had to wait for avatar to drop
Too buff to pass through doors
before i could join my friends
Click it off?
nobody clicks off an avatar
Ppl wait
ye
they can pull themselves if they feel like
or wait for their friend to be small enough to play a dungeon
i've played since wc1 and never ever mained an elf anything
this was still a problem in season 4
All my problems with dwarf would be solved if when they use avatar they become giga big
Like, all models become the same size with avatar
Ye, to compensate
avatar + engineer goggles on tauren meant i often had to wait on the buff to go away before i could get into the room before 2nd to last boss of workshop
you go up a ramp and to the right and thres a silo with small doors, and then its the smoke trap
It's not my fault im short and all my friends are 190+ so i look even smaller 

IIRC correctly, there are some spaces only gnomes can acess due to hieght
Thank god i don't do home office, would loose my job fast as shit cause i would be playing wow all the time
Depending on who you ask im considered tall so I guess I prefer playing the opposite of what I am
i would not be at at all surprised if many wow players today do just that because of covid
i'm 1,80. That's pretty average here in Brazil
Honestly think im just average but took an L being in a tall country ๐คท nothing u can do
Im like mid 170s i think not even sure
Last year I was doing home office, always played at least 2h during work time
Of my closest friends one is 197 other is 195 
But now the pay is way better
yeah im around 185cm
Ya that's proper tall
Oh and the dad of an old school friend was 2,08 think the guy close to that too
Germans
Huh
But north
Classic german
i don't think i would want to be 7 feet tall
probably has its advantages, but sounds like pain in ass
You wanna be 7 feet long 
You prolly cant get clothes or shoes that fit
Mh I guess you could say at the ostsee it's more common for 190+ people, lived 8 years there
My brother is 1,93. Not a problem, but one time we went to the ferrari theme park in dubai and he couldn't go to the roller coaster cause the max size was 1,90
Lol
Not gna have that Problem 
My best friend is a proper dwarf irl
Except for the lack of mega beard
Buff smol guy
Like, clinicaly dwarf?
Na that's fat and small
That's worse
You don't wanna be fat
Not healthy 
im not 100% sure on this but apparently the usa might be doing away with the imperial measuring system in favor of the metric system
"muh freedom measuremets"
Is the average american in science


and i have to say as a canadian where i take a vehicle that travels measured in kp/h to buy milk that comes in a litre option but you buy a water tank for the office and its a 5 gallon tank....
like holy fuck would i ever love to have some just baseline everyone knows what the fuck im talking about langauge for measuring shit
Kp/h? 
We say km/h here
just saying lot of accidents have happened because Americans refuse to change their metrics 
i probably meant to put that but couldnt think of the right term
That's burgerist Jakey
Eu measurement good
๐ฎ
And uk โ eu 
i don't drive alot for 1, and well, it could change alot throughout countries, i know that usa is MPH miles per hour
in germany people think they are really smart but they call kilometers per hour hourkilometers
Stundenkilometer jaa
thats on one road lol
where 30 is allowed
Lots of roads are unlimited
Autobahn ๐
It's not just 1 road
nurenburg ring aint it where u can go whatever speed u want one other place germany i think but close to that area i though
No point in going 300kmh
Nuremburg Ring is a F1 racing area
you go and you pay a fee like 20 bucks and you drive as fast as you want that road i though
U can go whatever u wanna on main highways
Na, on normal highway you can often go unlimited speed
It's just nonsensical to do so
Unless specified differently

in canada, the generall law is above 90 and you start to get into trouble, you can be pulled over speeding at +90, but on large highways/freeways here common for people to be doing up to 110
km/h
120 is average here, 140 is most common traveling speed
then its just whatevers signposted
Well yah
I still havent figured out if nome is yerman 
I am
Alles nur Almans 
"hey siri how fast was maid"
140ish
i was in a boat plane one day that was pretty exciting
You can drive there out of racing week events with your own car/bile
No F1 anymore only in Dubai 
On the Autobahn 250, then the limiter kicked in
i used to enjoy high speed racing games like gran turismo, but im just not good at them any more
140 common traveling speed?๐ค
Dangerous
if there arent several tires lying left and right
โ87 mph is what 140 km/h equates to
TY
I don't understand how in the US they can only give tickets for speeding if the police stop u
There is any other country that work this way?
How much mph i need to do a 25
What is mph?
miles per hour
Yeah for the most part
Speed cameras aren't very big in the states
I know,
I drive like an old man
Going 110 with cruise control on lol
Oh Reddit ๐
yer we dont go there
Reddit is part of the reason people don't understand the class.
Or any class, TBH
True lol
WW cost more rage and deals less dmg
but it looks cooler 
and don't apply deepwounds...profit xd
Also no shield slam proc xD
But it looks cooler!
Play fury, they spam that shit and its free๐
They should make an armor of thorns, like in dark souls
๐
wow reddit it looks like
I refrain from even trying
Im at -99 karma๐
It's fine - i need this right now. I gotta yell at someone.
yogi 2.0's..... everywhere..... tons of them
i think you underestimate number of shit players never speak up or get called out like me haha
imma be honest im still in shock of the leaper warrior yesterday
Huh?
i didn't see this?
look in log review channel
leaper lego in boots slot right?, you need shoes to jump.... asborb the fall
im looking in logs but i dont see it
Dude's smart af...can't waste a lot of rage if you don't generate a lot of rage.
true
i think they did yesterday
๐
And uses brutal vit over unnerving
in here
Yes we spammed him a ton
Ok I deleted ny revenge Button lets go boys
๐
someone whos good play a key with impending victory show footage
yer no im not playing with that
couldn't do it this week, necrotic, might be fine other weeks
Tbf IV is massively worse on necrotic compared to Indom
spiteful is a whole nother story tho....
well, 40% hp heal and then you accidently do it at 44 stacks, zero heal
Not even counting that IV is just worse period
Saw these on a 3k io fury a few days ago

Book and Hook
fucked up that i missed this
sounds like a great bit of sunday entertainment
Was quite unique
Now enough bashing him, he got the message that he's clearly not playing right
Just a new guy looking to improve
i feel like only way reprisal could have been more perfect if it was that instead of proccing revenge, it did not do that and procced free SS
Then it would be quite broken yes
./r/wownoob

Can u link
Ya this one
tbf ppl are speaking truth there
It's the kind of blanket statement that leave people really badly off at high levels though
icyveins also
Noob question. Is it possible to avoid the Overhead Slash from first boss in SoA? If so, whatโs the trick? Iโm not sure if Iโm avoiding it by moving or just getting lucky parries every now and then.
no block it
keep character pointed at her and with shield block up
You're just getting lucky with parries
It's unavoidable
It only looks like it's avoidable cuz of the splash animation
its still very good practice to try to point like 98% of conals out of the group so it doesn't hit and kill the healer
Well kinda
But it's better to know that it just can't hit anyone but it's target
For sanities sake
also, what that does, is if a monster gets threat, or targets another player with a spell, that monster has to turn 180 degrees around, so it makes it easier for the player to see
It's not actually a cleave. I think it used to be, but it's not now
They changed it from a true frontal to a targeted attack in S1?
yeah, correct, it just goes hand in hand with the face things to block
I really hate that first boss in Spires
take her pretty close to bird, and keep facing her and sb up while shes on ground
then just AOE till flying phase
if there is a 50 yard leash between her and bird, it makes everyon have to dance around it
Was just a bug
It was never supposed to do the frontal
But it did both in S1
Frontal + targeted
So it did double dmg if you didn't dodge the frontal part
everyone goes to hide after i kill that boss, and i have to tell them to come up stairs with me
because, i can easily get us into combat dealing damage again and set up the reflect, and its also easier to attempt to contain the way in with the backwards leapers will move (the very next pull), so they cannot pull pack beside the left taxi
They go to hide because you just LOLS them down those stairs
hang on
In my group I hide and my hunter does the pull
thats not the perfect angle, but there is a way to have them all bunch up perfectly, and then they die in 5 seconds to aoe
@strong forum yes I am
u can just los here
:pikashocked:
there is a pillar where birdos are too
๐
that could work
or with hunter pull both packs back to invisible larion area
this is by far the best way
well yer because once their stacked u move out so they can only jump into the wall as they jump away from u
maybe something like that, los to far stairs, then your in combat faster next pull
yup, done that pull a couple times. with enough CDs you can also pull the stealthclaws in too, but that's a bit much
people get antsy and want to attack and then surprisedpikachu when they get blasted by everything and nobody can save them
happens with first pull soa too, have to explain every time
๐ค how so?
theres a reason i never go left after boss 1 in spires but i can't recall it
theres like a million squad leaders on the left, doubt thats better
It isn't
its 100% easier for pugs
and 100% easier for a prot warrior to tank
because it more physical damage
plus u can just solo all the etherdivers which is like 50% of the trash that side
Yeah but on the right, everything non-physical that hits you which can kill you is spell-reflectable
And the bleeds from the one cat on the right side following the 6 stealthclaws is disregardable
nice let me do that once then and the next 1 can kill me
Next what? Dark seeker?
more casters on the left path, but you don't get an inquistor, assuming healer, on that route pre boss 2
no the next inturptable spell
that doesnt get inturpted when SR is on cd
or has already SR'd somthing
theres 3 Squad leaders instead of 2 ๐ค theres a bunch of stealthclaws that rip insanely hard with the bleed, and theres no good double pull with spear? ๐ค
I mean the only spell that goes off in those packs is Dark Lash; there's Internal Strife and that channel from the champion but those are separated enough that you yourself can lock down those kicks
or can you double pull the stealthclaw+etherdiver+goliath pack?
And then on top of that you can just line up all the Etherdivers with shockwave and spell reflect all their venoms at once
right side has more ether divers
Yeah, that's free pad
Once one starts casting venom, you shockwave the whole pack and spell reflect; all them cast venom at once, you spell reflect all of them, ez 25k DPS from that ability alone, GG
stairs pack is free when you can get the birds 100% free as you kill the first pack
and seperate, stagger between the giant group if you need
that makes that section free
i find the double giant pack easy as long as you don't pull the adjacent group to it
Don't need 1 shaman, just assign 4 kicks, or even 2 if you just kill Urh and get the kick off CD early
Lust that pack on fort anyways
๐ช ๐ฟ ๐
i like to have a shaman, means i dont have to kick 
get used to calling out "i got next" "you get next" "reflecting" ,"save yours" on voice comms
i dunno never had an issue with claw stacks ever, espically now with the amount of indom healing u get it makes no difference, u can spear the whole second platform on the left if u want or just taunt the divers off the goliath pull in the pat and leave the goliath out of it and spear that with the cats
This is actually a good practice if you're looking into getting into high keys for sure
my healer buddy has been rsham all xpac, he just always locks 1 down, i rotate the other with my guy who runs melee
In pugs, you can straight up pause, wait 20 seconds to type out the kick assignments, and then pull after. Better to waste 20 seconds telling a group of random people what the kick order is rather than manically charging in and wiping
๐ค this seems a bit overkill lol
It's for max lust uptime if you're lusting first pack on fort
And it's not really overkill because on high keys you double that pack with the etherdivers
Or the first 3 on the platform
Depending on CDs
its like a guy driving his family in a car with his wife and 3 kids
high keys i guess you mean 25+ then, cus didnt really need it at all in +20
Ya +20 can hold W
his job is to keep his wife and kids happy while they travel, and not crash into anything
Idk left side is much more chill
i disagree except for the pre boss 2 trash
Right side is always scuffed if people aren't 100% on game
idk nome i dont have an untimed soa key this season and i only go left side
left is slower, but if you have the dps it doesnt matter ig
literally my first point its 100% easier for pugs
Ya
it also has bleeds and magic debuffs that can delete a tank or healer not paying attention
Cuz it just is
do you go stealthclaws before left then?
Yes
or do you extra % near 3rd boss?
Left and right side is the exact same count
yer 2 chested on 19 fort and 20 tryan with pugs from weeks ago, must be SO Slow its unviable compared to right side
Left is just easier
Right can be quicker in a coordinated group I guess, idk
But left is omega free
i just really hate the leaping shitheads on the left side of 1st boss
You still have to do those
was trying to see if i could not pull them for some route
Even if you go right
if 1-2 jump away, the pack takes way longer than it is supposed to
i mean if u literally do what i saidf above
they dont move
i swear half u of have me muted or somthing
i know the "not move" trick
standing in the corner or whatever
but its gimmicky as fk, and not possible on necrotic
Just spell reflect them, move to them, stun them, etc.
exactly
i mean its no gimmicky
Everybody has to be close, that's how they stop jumping
^
If people move away, they move away
why not just go into birdos, kill birdos and then go directly into jumpers
they walk out because they cant see with their camera ๐
you lose zero travely time so you lose no dps
Tfw jakey talking to a wall 
a shield wall, one might say
they leap away if u all move out and face the wall they can only jump into the wall
80% of the M+ community still not understanding that you can move your camera with left click 
I still remember people bitching about Sire
Because they stood ass to the wall
And didn't just fucking rotate their camera skyward
Bro half the time every tank plays is top down
No yeah like fr
Cuz you can just see
And it's such a non issue
DPS players trying to play any MOBA or RTS
better no dumb may joke
FPS CE challenge when
Oh dear Christ please tell me it's not a reality
For a second when you left it at "a different kind of special" I was finna make a banger ass joke
"Oh damn bro that's what my psychiatrist said"
totally useless game footage, if you have a free scrolling mouse wheel and you go on a flying mount and hold down ctrl and spin mouse wheel, it does this
That's what my mum always tells me
except on SoA 1st boss. still haven't figured out a good camera angle for that bs
Heh
That's just "don't stand in face of bird"
Or "don't stand between bird and boss"
And then just yolo your camera
wait for birdo to move, heroicly ~~leaper ~~beside it and back away to let boss come at you, charge when shes in a good spot
attack birdo whil wait for her to come
charge puts you in front of the birdo, maeaning you can eat 2-3 bolts if it all lines up, bam your dead
Oh shit ohfuck fuck shit fuck he said leaper
more talking about the fucking trees
it is what it is, is my argument on that
pov wow 
cant tell me the positioning for finl boss of TD wasn't just as shitty

final boss of streets when it splits the room and your camera goes crazy, almost just as fun
๐ป
what am i doing
oh
UI stuff
who needs UI, just set up a couple notifications and taunt on 1. its tanking in warcraft zzz
you guys are ruining your immersion with all that stuff on your screen
Yes
we dont press it anyway
like u guys cant talent out of maul but u still dont press it ๐คท
Imagine if you have the choice to use mangle on auto attack
GEIF
tankadin better?
Thestive
are u playign in action cam?
YO
yeah ofc
also got hit by tentacle
Dynamic cam
just saying
but did i die

I tried this once, only had my rage bar and SB uptime
And Doom Pulse Cooldown
Did better than expected
U rlly don't need much more
anyone else enjoy leveling prot warriors
only tank thats fun to level is brew
pretty fun with the rage/movement speed talent I thought
you do a trillion damage
anyone had streets bug where the front instrument doesnt spawn?!
like, a month ago yeah
so then the boss doesnt either
don't know what causes it
we spent a really long time to reset and couldn't figure out anything
just dead key
rip ๐ฆ
Some people have discussed that porting out works, sometimes leaving the bar and killing some adds
The problem is that our core of rage generation come from SS, Ravager and reprisal. But SS only generate that much rage because we can use a lot of rage on revenge
And not having idom in the open world feels terrible
I had a friend yesterday die in a DoS pack, went into his NF thing then died inside it, and was walking as a ghost until he was ressed lol, we could actually see him
eh, victory rush is so much healing when leveling
healers gone now before i tried porting out, thanks anyway lol
Better to play DPS when leveling
I keep depleting 23s over technicalities on pulls or bad communication, someone just told me that my mic was too low lol
Bro I hate when people think they to good to join discord than fail a key or didn't know what was going on
21 plus keys I don't invite unless they grt into discord now
Tired of people failing keys cause that
I only use disc with friends but even then I explain them what we need to do and something goes wrong
Like sanguine, I told the rogue, pull third pack and vanish, then after 1st and 2nd we will skip with shroud, my mind when engaging the room pack was that the rogue already did it, but in his mind all we needed to do was to stuck to the wall to avoid the flying ticks
both approximations were acceptable except I needed to kite to drop necrotic, then you lower a key level and its like a walk in the park
Yup
But I agree, using disc even if its to call interrupts or something def makes a whole world of difference
1 person can screw up a key so fast
The best way to play wow is to play with friends
Pugging 20+ is not a good experience
Feels too much like a roulette
leveling is kinda okay?
idk
pretty chill if you ask me
and im at level 41
you can get to max level in literally a day, thats kinda wild if you ask me
without relying on any speedrun strats / crazy xp increases
Are u leveling another warrior?
its still the same one
havent touched it in 2 weeks again
and i only plan to go until 50 cuz of allied races tmog
Wanna level a kul tiran druid on season 4
Best shapeshifts forms
IMO
Right behind zandalar trolls
i have a KT druid
But i'm ally
How long will KT take to unlock if I am lvl 50 alliance no progress in kul tiras
no clue what the allied race requirements are now
Kul tiran racials seem pretty good
its very negligible
ya then youre gonna lose out on smth 1 way or the other
Not with my little fox
If u don't have flying in BFA gonna take a while
No
I have flying
Ye, only flying
The problem with following guides is that u WILL miss some quest/information and u'll need to backtrack sometimes
I took almost 12h
of pure gameplay
damn
Didn't feel great
thats annoying as hell
But i know u can do faster
Cause i didn't have flight
And i'm pretty bad at following guides
Or the guides are poor writen
But don't pick KT for the racial, pick for the flair
Ya I think they actually look cool
Idk u, but I always take a break between seasons after i get KSM and AOTC
Between season 2 and 3 I unlocked the allied races and got my legion mount on priest
Pretty cool owl
Every tank has been meta this xpac but war, hope we get more love next season
monk isnt meta
I don't rlly care we are not meta. The gameplay feels rlly good. The good part about u not beeing meta is no one will nerf u
and being meta is not a good thing
it only is a good thing if youre destro warlock currently
Look what they did to bears
look at what they did to pwar in 7.0
look at what they did to druids in 7.2
look at what they did to bdk in 8.0 and 8.1
look at what they did to pwar in SL beta
look at what they did to VDH in SL beta
if anything, I think a tank being meta correlates to how much you can offset your dps poor play, like dk can grip and survive a lot, bear required no healing, pala was doing a lot of dmg at one point when played optimally with a grp
at least this xpac I think
"which tank does the most dmg"
well yeah, but when you get to a point where "x bolt cast does % of your hp" and a dk can grip or a dh can aoe silence letting their dps tunnel that also helps, assuming all tanks are doing same dps
pally in 9.1 was very tanky, and allowed you to play rsham which did alot of dps and hps in the correct moments
Ppl will tell u that utility is the biggest thing for tanks in WoW, that warr are not brought because of utility. That's just not true, they only care about dmg
but you couldnt play rsham without pally in high keys cuz for the lack of sac/bop/freedom that shaman doesnt bring
the other part of being meta is "does good even with a mediocre player"
people liked knowing that any random pug tank could mash button on bear and do huge damage and never die
yeah, even when pally was the highest rated in 9.1, not alot of groups could pull it off
cuz its just not easy to play at that level
https://youtu.be/m7E8gtEHBnc SS damage in 9.0
Is there a certain haste breakpoint to improve up time on necro banner? I feel like my uptime can be much higher in keys than it currently is. I currently have a lot of pvp gear and my haste is only 26%.
No
na no known breakpoints
Smash more buttons
just as much haste as you can get
there are so insanely many factors to banner uptime
that haste alone isnt it
What is ur uptime?
reprisal usage is a big point of rage gen
aswell as using outburst efficiently and spamming revenges for more SS
BV also helps a ton
What uptimes are you guys getting in keys? I guess I can't really tell if I'm getting good uptime. It just feels really off I guess
BV?
Booming voice
with 2pc and BSC im getting ~60%
The talent
with 4pc and BV people are getting north of 90%
Oh true, i am using BSC atm. maybe that will help
I'm getting ~75%
i've been running BV
going kyrian this week helped me do my outburst rotation better than when I was practicing it last week managing outburst
well yeah
cuz you generate fuckloads less rage than necro
so obv its easier outburst management cuz you dont have as many

ive got around 80% with BSC maybe a tad higher
yeah, so if you want to work on your rotation better with necro, I d suggest trying that to @near pewter
but getting close to that 100% with BV
gotta keep at it
kyrian is dead boring now tho, after tasting that sweet necro nectar
With Booming Voice, do I try to line that up with Avatar (Using Anger Management)? Or don't bother and just use on CD?
Someone has to port out of the dungeon
ideally it should line up kind of naturally but it's variable, don't hold either too long, it's a waste of rage
And then you fight boss as 4
Just send on CD
Holding stuff just to line it up isn't worth it
It's all about maximising rage gain
Thanks ๐
How does parsing work for tanks? How is that calculated? Or am I just really really shit at dps with 40-60 parses
I am afraid and aware of the answer
I also saw sense with parses of 60% but slapping 16k dps on anduin
bit harder to parse higher when theres only 5 to compare between for M anduin
also there are still rng in your parses
or you pad running something like BSC for the adds
lots of factors
you arent playing bad just because your damage isnt 99
its just damage
thats it
theres damage parses and healing parses
thats all there is
Parses are just a way to compare you to everyone else who did the fight
If you do a 50 parse you are better than 50% of the others
btw you can play badly and parse high as a tank
for example you just dont shield block in execute
The colorful number is just your percentile in regards to all other public parses
you gonna need a lot of healer resources to keep you alive
but you gonna parse giga
๐
Parses are just a way of showing you how much dmg you do not how well of a tank you were
Then again more dmg is good for anyone
And doing damage translates well into the survivability of us
Cus that means you press your buttons
for most tanks its technically like that
optimizing your rotation is usually optimal dps
and optimal survival
unless you count the brew back hits on farm
Yes
before 9.2 we did kind of have to choose between spending resource on IP vs revenge
especially during prog
I am a bit new to raidtanking in general, but itโs a nice difference after a couple of seasons m+
Heroic, and yea itโs not very complicated
But a nice new breeze to the game for me!
Itโs just the jailer left now, looks like a fun fight
I'd love the logs to give tanks a parse % based on ExHRPS
I just started prot tanking for fun ive been looking at some logs how do yall cast hundreds of ignore pains per dungeon im like barely hitting 100 lol
Do you have tier set and play necro?
yeah i dont really understand how it works though so thats probably why
Do you understand how parsing works now or should I give it a shot?
Please do, or Iโll just Google and try to figure it out if itโs too much of an hassle โค๏ธ
big damage=better parse
It compares your dmg against all the other dmg logs of prot warriors
If you got the absolutely highest dmg done on that fight of all prot warriors, you get a 100
If you only did more dmg than 50% of all prot warrior logs on that fight, you get a 50 parse
And so on
In the case of senses 60% log despite 16k dps, that could be a case of being a rank 2 log
If there are only 4 logs
Or it could be a rank 40 log out of 100
The less parses there are on a spec on a boss, the bigger the % differences are between each achieved rank
If that helps clear it up a bit idk
And generally speaking, if you're not behind in gear and don't have the most fucked up kill timers
A well played tank generally achieves 90+ parses because there is an armada of bad tanks out there polluting the logs
The more popular your class, the easier it is to get good parses cuz of the sheer mass of mediocre players
same is true for healers
dps for the first 10 seconds of a pull and you'll probably get a blue parse
I miss 9.0 when playing venthyr gave me 95+ parses for free even if I played like shit
the prot pal ashen alone is enough to full heal the raid
Well healing parses are not to be looked at
That is a whole nother box of pandora
Way more factors go into that
yeah if you're trying to heal parse you are almost certainly fucking things up for everyone else lol
So anyone able to explain to me how yall are getting so many ignore pains off lol
A lot of generated rage
And effective use of tier set
Not much wasted rage
And high uptime on banner
the only way to spend rage is just like revenge spam basically isnt it
n with tier set the 2p is it better to spend it on shield bash or clap?
Always shield slam
Cus of the rage
And you spend a lot of rage on IP = a lot of casts
IP is off the GCD meaning you can use it as well as something else
You need to spam IP cus otherwise you cant dump generated rage fast enough and you overcap
Other than that you use a lot of rage on revenge as well
But you cant spam rage as effectively since its on GCD
oh so even if i have a proc of ignore pain going i should still refresh it before it gets used?
Yes
IP stacks to 2x the tooltip value btw
Because you never wanna waste rage
And you dont care about the IP absorb that much
Overcapping IP is 100x more beneficial than using IP โcorrectlyโ because the consumed rage feeds into your Anger Management and you tier set
So see IP as nothing else but a funnel for your tier and rotation
hmm interesting so i just need to spam IP more then is what im doin
kidna crazy cause I tanked a 19 mist n it was pretty damn easy n ive only played prot twice but then i realize my healing was way less that other logs on warcraftlogs so was confused
Yeah weโre strong rn
Log a key if you want and we can have a look 
Its easy to mismanage rage and stuff cus of the high gain
@cedar vapor mist heavy physical dmg to so We yolo that 
hps meter is also semibait
mitigate better, stand in less poop, now you do less healing, gj at playing correctly you've ruined your numbers
not really for us tbh

both logs and detail only counts real healing
o
im fairly sure we overheal triple the amount
Except incase of warrior
you cant "overheal" as pwar
indom just doesnt proc
and the reapplication of IP doesnt count as overhealing
Thats why you pad overhealing with IV 

how far behind is venthyr prot warrior? Is it a substantial survivability loss? Or just a dps loss?
its the only covenant that doesnt generate rage
Good point, I did notice I couldn't Shield block when I wanted to compared to my other warriors
it's really terrible
you never fail to surprise me
but why bother ๐ค
your extra slot will have a terrible piece of gear that you'd never take
BRB buying name change to remove tank from name
A bit on the healing parse discussion, it's a fucked up thing. Cause it tells u nothing but that's what guilds look at. So u have good healers trying to parse to jump to better guilds
But healing parse tend to become lower and lower as ppl get more gear and take less avoidable dmg
Mf out here named ian
thats only true in heroic
Probably full cope but i feel like a โgoodโ guild wouldnt look at healing parses and go off that
there are plenty of things to heal in mythic even with good gear
but yeah healer is very hard to see whos good or not
You can't judge healers on parses
Like at all
Unless they're grey
Then they're just afk
Is Sepulcher's Savior worth using :)?
i think i see lone beside me here
its good for its ilvl
but dont use the "on use"
just sit in defensive mode
Which one would you lads grab for m+'s? Codex and APC have avoidance btw
Almost sure proto and scars are useless. Not really sure that viscera is really helpful. Codex is a nice bit of burst damage but feels kinda meeh. Codex so far has felt good to me, between extra stamina and how often it stays up. OPC crits are nice for damage althou I usually run with a surv hunter or demo lock my dungeons so damage tends to not be an issue. Annhylde's feels nice when you have it but considering the ilvl it is at I can't tell if its better than more current ones.
Lastly, the alchemy stone I can remake with any progenitor stuff so it can give speed or avoidance which I guess are nice tertiaries + the 120 vers it gives as 262
That's what max said in a stream
So i just roll with it
dont stack both
wanna stager all defensives
I guess I can do that?
I just got used to that in the huge ardenweald pull
cuz if I did just 1 I would die >.>
If u don't pull the matriarch, u can hold the first few seconds only with SB
Until the stacks start getting higher
with the ardenweald pull you can just aegis first
and then wall after
or wall first preferally
oh i didnt read, you said SB+aegis
not SW+aegis
SB should be up for the entire pull after the stun
And if ur dps is not fast enought u need to kite cause the dmg ramp
No combination of defensives will save u after some number of stacks
elegy + opc
or aegis + elegy
codex(not the grim codex(!)) you can keep if you plan on doing ultra omega keys or rygelon/jailer
rest can safely go into the trash
Yeah no grim codex is meeh
What is omega keys for you? Im casually doing 15โs atm with the war as prot but I would like toat least aim for3k m+score so I can get thoe 278 conduits
Cuz Iโve read dks dont use codex until like 26โs (the ones that actually know what they are doing)
like 25 min
Jfc
yeah generally around 25/26 id say
codex is really meh in lower keys
^
for blood dks its 15 fortified
nah

you lose around 120 str from a generic yeah
:paysattention:
codex needs to do over 400dps in a key just to be equal to a str trinket that does NOTHING
But the avoidance :c
its 1 key level worth of mitigation
avoidance doesnt do anything in m+
I was happy it rolled avoidance kek
and for tanks yeah avoidance isnt really a thing in m+
speed is bis tertiary
in raid its good
so you can kite easier
but in m+ avoidance generally isnt strong
unless youre a bdk
cuz they get 1shot alot easier
Guess ill keep farming scale
scale is also sucky
Well fuck me
just stick with stat sticks
and aegis or smth
but yeah on blood, codex has like a 90% pickrate in high keys
its like codex soleahs ows
3 pick 2
^
not very good on prot war
