I just startet on my prot warr and now i got Sepulcher's Savior and Assimilated Safeguard borh from mythic, what should I use 😄

jagged pier
#

assimilated

more saying that they feel easy, even if play is poor

#

Random thought: Can you swap Shields during M+ runs?

blazing condor
#

Nop

#

Or can you

#

Idek

median tulip
#

You can swap weapons, right?

blazing condor
#

ive never tried anything fancy like that

median tulip
#

I'm just wondering if you could be ultra-nerdy and swap to Sep Saviour when def mode is up and to a stat shield when it's not

primal wraith
#

I'd assume it goes on 30sec cd once you swap to it?

mighty valley
#

you can just leave it in def mode all the time

dawn canyon

Is better

i keep forgetting that the default hunter is now melee spec, so i invite them thinking them are bm/mm/ but mostly, lust spec

strong forum
#

same tbh

sick sentinel
#

i dunno if there is a version of melee hunter uses pets too ,but that would be fun and cool

dawn canyon
#

They can Lust

strong forum
#

surv hunter does use a pet

sick sentinel
#

well, we got to first boss of TOP, and i pulled it no, lust, someone died, wipe, etc etc you know the rest, el depleto

mortal brook
#

surv pet is their resource builder and tier proccer

dawn canyon
#

"hunt u have to lust"

mortal brook
#

and should default have a ferocity pet (lust)

oblique garnet
dawn canyon
#

"hunt u got lust pet?"

leaves

sick sentinel
#

most groups target melee first boss?

dawn canyon
#

Top?

sick sentinel
#

i've always done it sath

#

anyways, i didn't get enough aggro on melee mob looks like, warrior got smoked,

dawn canyon
#

Oh one thing im actually really curious about, i saw dorki tank the 3rd Boss nw creations diagonally to the room, roughly where the gaundlet spawns are.
Any obvious advantages that come to mind?

sick sentinel
#

attacked the relics instead of attacking the boss

median tulip
#

people going alpha strike on a mob that I haven't built threat on is always a pain

very bad pull

cinder storm
#

the only spell you want to focus on is Searing Death

blazing saffron
#

Is there any aura recommendations for making sure you dont cap out ignore pain?

lofty widget
#

capping IP doesnt matter

blazing saffron
#

Oh. Good shit.

lofty widget
#

just spam away

#

capping rage on the other hand...

blazing saffron
#

capping rage is down bad

cinder storm
#

Also, if you run with a fury/arms, make a habit of using challenging shout

blazing saffron
#

that one i know ha

#

Yeah front load machines those two are

tropic linden
tropic linden
#

So it's better to "waste" rage on IP

#

So u don't overcap

blazing saffron
tropic linden
#

yeah, try to stay between 30-70

lofty widget
#

sure, but with necro 4 pc that shouldnt be a main concern

tropic linden
#

But we have so much rage with 4pc, it's hard to NOT have 30 rage

lofty widget
#

we're generating shitloads of rage constantly

cinder storm
#

unless you have charge or intervene available

blazing saffron
#

I dont know what Im doing wrong with necro

#

my uptime is low as fuck

cinder storm

pull faster, spam ip

revenge more revenj

Your cpm of revenge is abysmal

#

and pls

Same as your cpm of SS ( which comes from not using enough revenge)

lofty widget

bind execute 😦

jagged pier
#

holy u wasting a lot of rage for a raid fight

blazing saffron
#

I honestly took execute off my bars. I was super sketched from tanking heroic on it as a lock main ha

strong forum
#

Huh??

blazing saffron
#

I felt scared to execute*

#

I wanted to make sure I didnt die ha

strong forum
#

Execute is the whole reason why banner is sooo good in raid

blazing saffron
#

Guild has talked way down bad on prot warr so i prepared for the worst ha

lofty widget
#

execute is like, the best button to press when its available

sick sentinel
jagged pier
lofty widget
#

spends a lot of rage, generates a bit, resets SS

strong forum
#

As soon as the boss is in execute range you stop using revenge and IP

#

And just spam execute

blazing saffron
#

Oooooooh

strong forum
#

That's the whole point

#

You're also not nearly charging enough

jagged pier
#

your barely charging

#

your missing a tone of resest on SS because revenge is low

blazing saffron
#

Should I be leaping out and charging?

ocean yoke
#

just gotta work on your rage gen, not wasting it, and cast numbers

jagged pier

u can literally walk out and charge

Playing necrolord reprisal pwar is the hardest tank to play optimally, it's only natural that people will struggle with it

chilly brook

@blazing saffron My brother in Christ, you best be hitting execute

Good goddamn

chilly brook

Execute is big chimp energy

LMFAO

no shot

And it's working. Irl exercise made me better at Prot Warrior again. Happened in Legion, happened again.

#

1000% true

timber slate

And the strongest tank is basically stand there and spam 1 button
How ironic

sacred timber
#

Why am I getting denied to +15s ;-;

jagged pier
#

all those untimed keys probably

blazing saffron
#

Also LFG is toxic af due to the nature of it ha

median tulip
#

The other day, I had 2 DPS drop rather than go with a Prot warrior

#

So we got 2 more DPS and +2d they key

#

Their loss

candid path
#

nice

jagged pier
#

In all 3 of the keys ive done this week ive been second on dps okayge

rain lance
#

If those 2 dps were so fixated on the 'meta' that they refused to run with a prot warr, you likely dodged a bullet by them leaving

sacred timber
oak cypress
jagged pier
#

No

jagged pier
sacred timber
#

but it isnt even fort

jagged pier
#

Ppl will look at evetything

#

And fort keys are harder for tanks so as they see u dont have them timed thats an F

sacred timber
#

and I think I have run about 2 of each key on fort cause the weeks are just cancer or I dont feel like running them.

jagged pier
#

Well why would they take someone that only runs keys half the time 🤷

#

Thats how their looking at it

sacred timber
#

why would someone with a 2100 io and a +15 take a 2916 prot warrior >_>

#

With multiple timed 20s....

#

That is only timed runs

#

I still have timed 19s and 20s on fort

jagged pier
#

I dont all my keys are timed at 19 or 20 for both weeks and i dont get declined 🤷

What is your average dps Jakey?

#

Oh gn bedge

jagged pier
#

12k

#

Did like 13.5 today with rep

#

And 15.5 ish k with seismic today

#

Depends on key of course

But 10-12 should be the average

#

Well probs 11-12

increased circulation, better core strength, more oxygen, you're literally making yourself better even in games since you're basically diverting more energy to the brain and also helping protect against injuries when gaming

but the benefits are there, also trail/nature running is a game changer

Llarold do me a favor and tell the rest of the wowhead writing team that the Blue Dragonflight magic is Arcane and not Frost. During the ordering of Azeroth, the titan Norgannon blessed Malygos and his flight with power over the arcane and the duty of ensuring it would never be abused.

should we be running ashens juggernaunt? just for raid or keys as well?

#

@jagged pier

paper mirage
candid path
#

it's funny, the things I hear most about Prot Warrior, at least in terms of negatives, are that it has poor threat and survivability

#

which is just... no

#

to both of those, hell no

chilly brook
candid path
#

exactly

chilly brook
#

although both of those have generally been not true the whole expansion

candid path
#

like people in Monk world saying Haste is a worthless stat

#

yeah, in Legion it was

#

that was last decade

chilly brook
#

survivability just skyrocketed this patch tho

median tulip
#

I find that my initial burst threat is somewhat lacking, compared to (say) a Paladin

chilly brook
#

you should be using execute quite a bit in keys

candid path
#

literally everything lacking compared to Paladin's opening threat, tbf

chilly brook
#

3 targets or less execute is used

candid path
#

it's like saying "I feel weak and small compared to LeBron James"

#

you're supposed to

#

he's Herculean, he's probably on HGH, so are Paladins

chilly brook
#

lol

#

paladin will probably be the biggest loser in terms of borrowed power tbh

candid path
#

yeah, I would think so

urban portal
#

Blood dk tho

median tulip
#

Paladins and BDKs seem to be everywhere at the moment. VDH have just vanished. Or at least that's my impression from playing my Shaman

urban portal
#

Don’t you lose all your borrowed power in prepatch or what’s the deal

chilly brook
#

legendaries will probably stick around

urban portal
#

In 9.0 you lost corruptions but kept azerites?

candid path
#

BDK still has a baseline of really solid defensive value, Paladin's basically only going to have the amazing group utility

chilly brook
#

I'd assume they'll do the bfa treatment

candid path
#

that's all barring talents, I mean they may just give Ashen/Divine Toll, etc. to Pally in the talent tree

#

in which case never mind, still absurd

urban portal
#

Blood dk had it really bad until 9.2

chilly brook
#

aka legendaries will work until probably like 65

urban portal
#

In 9.1 the dps dks were just so meh

#

That every guild took blood

candid path
#

turbo-ass damage output, of course

urban portal
#

No tank is squishy in raid

#

Raid tanking is tuned around the weakest tank

chilly brook
#

I tanked with a DK in 9.0.5 and 9.1 homie was fine

candid path
#

that is true

median tulip
#

I mean, even if Legendaries turn off in Azeroth or the Dragon Isles, they are still 291 items, so they will last for a good few levels

#

I was still wearing some Ny'alotha gear when I hit 60 IIRC

chilly brook
#

lol

urban portal
#

Yeah if you had bis gear it would prob last for all of leveling

median tulip
chilly brook
#

vita lasted until 60

median tulip
#

One of my guildies had played a single character all the way through BfA, so her Heart of Azeroth was some stupidly high ilvl that she didn't replace for months after she hit 60

#

Even just as a stat piece is was better than anything short of Vault or Mythic Raid gear

urban portal
#

Heart went infinite Ilvl or something?

median tulip
#

I can't remember. There's probably still someone out there trying to get it to ilvl 1000 or something

ocean yoke
#

i swapped off the neck while leveling for a downgrade just to get rid of that god forsaken rock

#

So is alexstraza frost too

mortal brook
#

does she live in a snowy area

chilly brook
#

Wyrmrest

#

So yes

mortal brook
#

thats the 9-5

chilly brook
#

Also kalecgos doesn’t live in snow

#

Last I checked he just liked dalaran

mortal brook
#

the 9-5

sick sentinel
#

i caught a butterfree

chilly brook
#

Frostwyrm is like 100% just from being undead

mortal brook
#

🌨️

#

also they turn into emberwyrms?

#

not frostwyrms

chilly brook
#

Malygos did no frost spells last I checked

mortal brook
#

bet he'd be a frostwyrm if you raised him tho

#

and lived in da snowy

#

so if not specc'd frost, they sure are frost hobbyists at the very least!

chilly brook
#

Emberwyms weren’t a thing

#

Until legion and bolvars bullshittery

mortal brook

sick sentinel

mortal brook
#

and will anyone be suprised if the Azure Span is snowy as heck and theres blue dragons frostin the place up? nope. will they also do Arcane things? surely

mortal brook
# chilly brook

throws fireballs, turns into emberwyrm. blue dragon. looks like they dont have to do arcane things

sick sentinel
#

dragons also have sharp teeth and claws, thick armor

mortal brook
#

they sure do, yogi

chilly brook
sick sentinel
#

Arcane mage as something like a warlock maybe where it put dots on everyone or just 1 guy could be cool, time magic, then you could slow down or speed up dots

#

Best way I can think that accurately describes arcane is time magic

#

Feels like arcane is pretty much exclusively leveling and pvp

Vers dogshit stat

#

Unironically placebo pill

I mean, I wouldn't say dogshit, but you definitely shouldn't be aiming for it.

what trinkets yall suggest over OWS/Aegis? didnt play my warrior last tier 😦

wraith hemlock
#

I like elegy

#

Nice 3% haste increase

#

OPC is also nice, big aggro during it

vapid lynx
#

yeah been trying to grab OPC since i still ned it for fury, wasnt sure how good it is for prot

ocean yoke
#

are you talking raid or m+? will be a bit different

#

OWS great in either though, especially if you got a 259

vapid lynx
#

M+

#

i just doubt ill get a mythic OWS so im just going for alternatives

ocean yoke
#

hard to wrong with set and forget trinkets like phial and ticking sack if you dont need aegis for whatever particular key you do

#

anima field emitter is another decent option from spires if you got it

abstract gazelle
#

Hello guys im offspec tank, and some times i have to tank, i figured out scolex mythic and with good cooldown rotations we were able to kill him, but for everything sacred dausegne would kill my ass off really easy with the cosmic damage stack, i dont know what to do

ocean yoke
#

at least in my own times on desausage i wouldnt end up with more than 3 or 4 stacks at a time when we would swap. rough times are naturally when you are going through rings since its just another magic dot so i was using cds for those times. the add will absolutely clap though if people let its bolt cast go off

viral flume
#

I think an affix that makes you play very specifically like Prideful did, would be better placed in a later season when you are used to general routes so it forces us to change it up and keep the dungeons fresh

Not so much the first season of a set of dungeons

The relics themselves don't deal any dmg

#

So taunting them is w/e

sick sentinel
#

those yellow swirls from urh cause me to take 25% more dmg for 5 seconds?, i mean, shit, now that i understand that

oblique garnet
#

No the yellow swirls stun you

#

Urh passively gives you damage taken buff

sick sentinel
#

theres something tied to urh relic that makes you take 25% for 5 seconds anyway

#

deconstruct

oblique garnet
#

Yes

#

thats just urhs tank buster

craggy pilot
#

not dodgeable

sick sentinel
#

thats not the same as the swirl, so its a melee or something? that probably explains why im doing fine and then randomly die when urh shows up

oblique garnet
#

Urh has a ground effect

#

if you stand in it

#

you will most likely die

craggy pilot
sick sentinel
#

i wasn't fully aware he also made me take more damage somehow, so i can at least try to correct that now

mortal brook
#

Deconstruct is also a fervent strike, which can be fun

sick sentinel
#

i have a vague idea of what those are like how gorechop does some hateful strike hits a second melee i think

craggy pilot
#

rly? on wowhead it says "targets highest threat target"

jagged pier
#

'in range'

strong forum
#

I never knew that urh applied a debuff to you where you take more damage

jagged pier
#

i mean its not notice able tbh

mortal brook
#

There are a handful of abilities that will just strike the nearest Target if their highest Target isn't in range. Haymaker in gambit, deconstruct from urh, notable one was ataldazars' fervent strike. So we just call em all that

jagged pier
#

as u usually have Demo shout on it anyway

#

so it just deals normal damage

sick sentinel
#

you don't notice taking 25% more dmg

#

cuz i do

jagged pier
#

also 25% more melee damage means nothing

mortal brook
#

Just block it

jagged pier
#

probably because u get stunned

#

so u cant do anything for 5 seconds

ive frequently noticed pul pull when urh comes with a boss till he dies gives me a bit of hell

vy,, seems to do literal nothing besides shoot a short range line of stars on ground that hurt you

strong forum

Vy shoots targets at random

And that line

Dangerous on high keys cuz she can just outright kill your group

lots of groups like to go for vy instead of urh i notice

jagged pier

alot of bad groups

sick sentinel
#

an infinite ocean of wow pepegas

vy is dumb

he teleports really far, thus you lose time by killing it instead of cleaving boss+urh

sometimes vy nice for a complicated boss on low keys im doin.... don't have to worry about a yellow circle that 1/3rds me

Im not nearly as good as the yellows but ill check your casts and compare it to what the yellows say is where you wanna be

at least the intervene casts seem low

yep, I only use it to escape stuff

this wil also improve a bit more if you use itervene more

through reprisal - got it

dawn canyon

yep

#

i dont wanna give further advice since i really really dont wanna tell you something wrong

#

jakey or someone else whos actually good can prolly help more with smaller htings

#

your casts are way low, utilize reprisal more, so try to always keep charge and intervene on cd, revenge more to get more SS resets and stop using outburst on TC

echo egret

"your casts are way low" and I thought I was spamming haha

these are your casts

and those are mine, in the same dungeon

you cast less TC than me, but it has a higher uptime - what does it mean ?

its around the same

else It would mean that absolutely all top players hide /dont upload their logs

Warcraft logs

sick sentinel
#

i can't log into warcraft logs because reasons, and didn't set up logging properly to my knowledge, have some logger head thing installed but god only knows if it works and is readable

timber slate

You have to type /combatlog before a dungeon

Then upload on warcraft logs

sick sentinel
#

well, logger head it pops up with a box and it says "do you want to enable logging for spires of ascension?" y/n

hollow kayak

I think I have a weakaura that automatically turns on logging for all dungeons/raids. I just have to remember to go clear out my logs every once in a while.

details probably, but it doesn't really matter because logs are better than that and videos are even better

Well details is helpful for uptime of banner

#

Since its only combat

#

And you shouldnt have banner active out of it unless u are like chain pulling and fell off combat for 1 sec

Is good fun sometimes

echo egret
median tulip
#

Some have more than others

wraith hemlock
#

Why would banner uptime out of combat be important thou?

blazing condor
#

It aint unless you get slowed outside of combat

#

But i mean having a high banner duration left as you exit combat is nice to carry it over to the next pack

wraith hemlock
#

Yeah it is

#

Unless you have high banner duration cuz you popped it 15 secs before enemies died

#

Which I’ve seen happen often kek

chrome falcon
#

If I have banner off CD and the next pack is close I’ll pop it 5 seconds before the current pack dies

#

Doesn’t matter to me I’m all about the uptime baby

median tulip

It's all situational

#

Some places there's such a long run. Like in DOS

wraith hemlock
#

Or SoA

#

ToP on the other hand

#

Pull non stop

#

Except the lichblady zone

median tulip
#

Even ToP there's a run after each boss to get to the next wing

wraith hemlock
#

Yeah so what we do is we run war, lock, druid, rogue and mage

#

And we do the glad guy first. Lock leaves portal down from arena to the middle zone. We jump down, grab lock port, druid uses roar, I leap and start pulling the abominations area

#

Gotta go fast #zooooooom

median tulip
#

I always go to the Platforms wing second after Xav

#

Gorechop last

#

Lich Lady is the easiest boss to tank, but she tends to really stress the healer

wraith hemlock
#

Im not sure why but sounds fair

#

I dont tank higher than 20’s so I just tell the healer to dispell whoever is not the tank

#

And I pop something

#

Amz, ams, spell reflect, something

vapid lynx
#

So I see some prot wars run booming voice and others run best served cold, is there a time when u run one vs the other?

bsc for more overall, BV for more ST and easier banner management

The only thing you can do as Tank is to Intervene on someone if you're using the Safeguard conduit

soul storm if its the TOP trash ability im thinking of

it either deletes the group, or does nothing at all

like i said deletes the group or does literal nothing

#

no inbetween

#

On high Fortified weeks it's pretty unpleasant

#

On Tyr weeks it's negligible

sick sentinel
#

he can be a slight problem this week untill you kill the inspired mob because it means the other caster is allowed to free cast forever

urban portal
#

Healer gets one you rally the other

#

Very simple

median tulip
#

Also Inspiring doesn't prevent the best form of CC/Interrupt, which is to murder the offending mob ASAP

#

I strongly recommend the application of extreme violence to the problem. Solves all sorts of issues.

sick sentinel
#

mobs with tank aggro will still just cast crap at whoever randomly though right

median tulip
#

Some will randomly cast on anyone who is on their threat list (like the bowmen on the way to Xav; they do that), others cast on their threat target

#

One of the big problems comes about because casters tend to stand off, don't get hit by Revenge and Thunderclap, and if your healer generates enough threat then they will turn on him and nuke him with a tankbuster... which tends to be a OSK

urban portal
#

Yeah bone spear in inspiring does go crazy

sick sentinel
#

so, what happened that pull, is the bone spear mustve gone off a bunch of times an put healer into stress

median tulip

This is why good interrupt usage is not optional at high level. Or even medium level.

I've been debating on switching from VDH to ProtW (there's a myriad of reasons which I probably shouldn't go into) and I was wondering if anyone had significant experience with the two classes at large in which to answer my very arbitrary questions. Or would it be better to just apply a wall of text here?

dark lark
#

I play both, you can dm me your question

#

Or just drop it here for others to answer too

urban portal
#

The best part about prot warrior is that you’ll never be baited on living

distant crystal
#

ask em

urban portal
#

You’ll know when it’s your time to die

distant crystal
#

lotta altoholics around

urban portal
#

Whereas on vdh always have hope that you can heal through

grizzled steeple
#

I mean...VDH feels like a lot of "whoops, I died"

#

going from 100-0

#

I was thinking about ProtW vs VDH in a general perspective vs how they're working on their current borrowed power.
Example, VDH is more kiting/squishy extremely high speed but low raw mitigation with long range both in damage and control, IE: Sigils and 12 second leap.
Warrior usually has more damge and pressure with lower control level and shorter range, IE: Shout and Avatar
My primary hesitance is that protW feels REALLY complex compared to VDH. I'm not particularly fond of addons and it feels like you NEED one to properly play protW to maintain 8+ rolling CD's. But as primarily a raider, the utility of rally and raw damage might outweigh the inconvenience of the spec.

#

Like how much more complex is the rotation of protW compared to VDH, is it worth the tradeoff for the stronger general raid contribution?

#

Also I switched from bear to VDH and good gravy is it squishy.

wraith hemlock
#

I dont play vdh but our guild’s tank is a vdh and he is squishy as heck. On my prot war I usually can handle stuff a lot easier with less cds in comparison. I dont think prot war is that complicated rotation wise. It’s basically a “smash revenge and SS, keep TC on cd but never use with the set bonus buff, use IP to dump rage and not overcap” and since we go necro most of the time we keep banner up 100% of the time

#

Probly the hardest part of prot war is properly using reprisal leggo

grizzled steeple
#

Mostly looking at block uptime

#

maintenance

#

Like i dont feel squishy right NOW. but historically itwas/is a problem and I imagine when borrowed power fades it might happen again

wraith hemlock
#

Nah

#

In raid it shouldnt be due to tau t swaps

#

Taunt*

#

And there is a chance when borrowed power is gone that heavy repercussions will be the choice again

#

Also even during prolonged tanking periods, double charge and intervene with reprisal is 12 secs of shield block I think

grizzled steeple
#

I mean that seems like a lot of maintenance for just baseline defensives (keeping shield block up). A raid fight is about 4 minutes ish? Tanking half the time is.....30-ish button presses to just keep up block. Not including IP and you have a priority damage rotation on top of that. It just feels like a lot comparatively.

wraith hemlock
#

Charge, sb, intervene, sb, leap+ charge, sb

#

Dont see how that is 30

#

The 30ish is to keep banner up

grizzled steeple
#

over a 2 minute period

#

6 buttons presses for 30 seconds of SB x4 is 24. So I overestimated including IP in there

#

I guess I imagined clipping every once in a while as well

#

I mean don't get me wrong, i'm picking nits 100%. but thats a lot of concious effort to keep 1 buff going

wraith hemlock
#

Sb falling is not the end of the world

#

I mean dont get me wrong, its bad

grizzled steeple
#

I imagine thats part of the problem, is that it feels cruicial

wraith hemlock
#

Like bdk DRw falling off

grizzled steeple
#

and its not....fun gameplay?

wraith hemlock
#

But you have last stand, demo shout, shield wall

grizzled steeple
#

I'm comparing this to VDH which doesnt have that

wraith hemlock
#

Even if u fuck up and sb falls you have ways to survive

#

Hell you could even hardcast fleshcraft

#

I’ve done it

#

It is like the fucking worst thing to do in a “maximized damage scenario”

#

But its a good defensive when it aligns

#

Im not sure what you consider fun as tanking

grizzled steeple
#

right, i'm not saying its untenable. Just....not engaging gameplay, and a lot of mental maintenance

#

I honestly dont know

wraith hemlock
#

Most tank discords will always try to maximize their damage. Surv is rarely an issue outside mythic raid or really high keys

grizzled steeple
#

As a bear, I had no thought in my rotation, but I ended up leading raid, and that made it engaging/fun.

#

I mean is it fun to maintain a buff and try and push damage?

wraith hemlock
#

Dunno man. Your view of fun is different to my view

grizzled steeple
#

Truth

wraith hemlock
#

I love having a super fucking fast paced tank spec

#

And seeing my necro banner get back from being on CD and still having the buff up with plenty of time left

#

If you want the benefits of rallying cry and battle shout for ur raid you might be better off with a dps warrior. Not that they are easier but if you die at least it was not a tank who died

#

If you feel prot war is too much

grizzled steeple
#

I mean we have an arms warrior who....doesnt want to play his warrior?

#

but i like fury

#

and havoc

#

so its kind of a wash there

wraith hemlock
#

Well tbf arms/fury dont feel amazing when you get paired with a destro lock pumping twice ur damage with 10 less ilvls lmao

grizzled steeple
#

but we have a 2 havocs already...so brand isnt an issue

#

thats outside of the genralities I was looking for though

wraith hemlock
#

Jeez where you get all these dh’s? We are stuck with a VengDH cuz no one else would go dh and he does not like havoc

grizzled steeple
#

one of the havocs wants to switch to enh real bad

#

and i'd play havoc if we had another decent tank, but the only reason i'm tanking in the first place is because they were just so bad I couldnt take it anymore

dull phoenix
#

Average uptime of conqueror's banner on tank?

wraith hemlock
#

Above 80% i think?

dull phoenix
#

I mean in seconds on a pull time

#

30s is average or too bad?

wraith hemlock
#

Bad

#

Well

#

Raid or m+?

#

We dont really use seconds. We go by %

#

In raid with 50% tank uptime you should be able to maintain banner the whole time if using reprisal and booming voice

#

And in m+ there will be downtime due to time between pulls even if you try to chain pull as much as you can but you can have banner back sooner due to relics

Why u dont enchant and socket vers

U literally only enchant and socket haste

I understood it the way, that we can get a little less haste this patch to get more versa for high keys

High keys for are atm 23/24, trying to push further

no haste

haste is more important now due to banner

switched back and now iam back at 36 haste, 21 mastery, 20 versa

yeah cause mastery gives them dmg

timber slate
#

Mastery gives dmg to everyone
It just scales really bad for most

distant crystal
#

no

#

it gives 0 dmg to healers lol

for healers it's througput, which in some situations is very very good

distant crystal
#

most healers avoid mastery like the plague

#

in keys

#

cause theyre going for dmg, not healing

timber slate
#

You dont play a healer for dmg though

distant crystal
#

yeah you do lol

distant crystal
#

meta healers are the ones that do the most dmg

wraith hemlock
#

Yes

#

And guess what

#

Healing people faster = more time to do damage

#

And its not like they are sacrificing anything for that extra throughput

distant crystal
#

they're sacrificing 400 mastery on a dps eh

wraith hemlock
#

I mean I get what you are pointing out but still wrong. We don’t play banner around the group to buff people

#

So it’s irrelevant wether a dps or a healer got the free 400 mastery

#

well if that extra throughput helps keep the dps alive i'd say its more worth on the healer

But again we dont bother trying to actually give the right people the buff so the conversation is kind of moot

extremely unlikely scenario

wraith hemlock
#

I mean I’ve never seen a single prot warrior go in voice “healer, I need you to back off so you dont get mastery buff cuz it is imperative that the dps get it”

strong forum
#

plka often literally said "oh damn aimer got the mastery"

#

and told him that hes gonna banner so he told him to back off for a sec

#

usually on pull on bosses

wraith hemlock
#

Dunno who that is

#

cuz thats where youre most likely to banner, and like the 1 scenario where you banner for your group

#

or rebanner

Like as if you wouldn't if you have the opportunity

Yeah, but after that is like “yeah fuck it, whoever gets it can say thank you”
