I meam it does like 10% damage with the on use u wont get anything out of the agi

#

I dont have one on warrior but im considerig teying to get one

urban portal
#

im assuming you try to pull bleed?

#

or bomb

median tulip
#

The AFE is ok, but the positioning requirement can make it trouble

vernal vale

I need to remember this and share it with people.

jagged pier
urban portal
#

haste technically also does

#

but yea

toxic pewter
#

scale and phial both have that nice STR

strong forum
#

bleed however doesnt proc on every ability

#

and only procs on crits

#

keep that in mind

urban portal
#

you def need an x amount of crit to make it good

oh afe also has str..

oh countermeasure from legion eh

ive heard even that one is really good

scale, sack, megapint decanter m+

we did some testing in the past and its a megapint

sick sentinel

thats what it is, wine galss

cinder storm
#

question, sometimes SS goes grey, does this happens if I step back or something or the GCD? I have enough rage to use it. Sometimes I hear a double SS going off too

odd tree

have AFE on the bdk, it's rather nice for moments when you can face tank

absolutely wine in that glass

#

Whats that % on your hp bar?

sick sentinel
#

move speed, can be useful i've been slowed, almost fluff

dawn canyon
#

I still dont understand tukui Unit frames

#

Why does your name have a seperate bar

#

That could just all be one bar

cinder storm
#

Maybe that's the rage bar with the name/hp integrated? it looks weird to me too

median tulip
chilly brook
#

@toxic pewter TLDR on codex, is that it scales on damage intake. We don't take a lot of damage, therefor we have to get to much larger damage intakes for it to be good. If we were DKs or Monks it would be a far better option.

chrome falcon

thank god i'm finally home so i can actually judge the logs that people post again

i can't remember how you change the size of rage bar tukui or if you can atm

Ignore pain is trash?

#

Yeah I heard marcellion online podcast where some guys were talking about it and made it sound not great

chrome falcon
#

some guys huh

urban portal
#

ignore pain is pretty trash yeah

#

we just get so much that it becomes good

#

kind of like russia in ww2

chrome falcon
#

whoever those guys were were probably pretty wrong so i wouldn't put too much faith in what they said but yeah

#

every individual ignore pain cast sucks but being able to actually spend our shizillion rage is nice

fiery badge
#

Good point about IP competing with shield block

#

You basically gotta spam it

urban portal
#

well

#

you dont need to spam sheild block

#

and the rage has to go somewhere

fiery badge
#

You can’t spam SB

urban portal
#

IP doesnt really compete with anything in 9.2

#

is the best part

fiery badge
#

So yeah Ignore pain or revenge right

urban portal
#

no

#

revenge

chrome falcon
#

well

urban portal
#

and IP when you are on a gcd

chrome falcon
#

ignore pain AND revenge

chrome falcon

yep

#

can't trust these prot warrior players these days

mighty valley
#

prot warriors are the worst at prot warrior

fiery badge
#

I mean like, they were saying if you have a pack that does magic damage and physical
The IP will mitigate physical before the magic damage comes

cinder storm
#

yep ratge

fiery badge
#

It will mitigate whatever shield block doesn’t

#

I think

strong forum
#

itll mitigate everything

fiery badge
#

Then you get hit with a 30k wicked bolt

chrome falcon
#

well sure but

#

you're healthier than you would have been without the IP

#

so it wasn't useless

fiery badge
#

Yeah sure I agree

strong forum
#

the hidden joke that youre not seeing here is that i am one of the people on that podcast who said that

fiery badge
#

Oh no way

chrome falcon
#

smh nomer couldn't help himself

ignore pain sucks but outburst and avatar are good which is what ignore pain actually gives you

fiery badge
#

Okay

#

Sick

mighty valley
#

it's wildly rage inefficient but we have so much god damn rage right now that it adds up to a decent amount, on top of the set bonus + anger management benefits which are huge

strong forum
#

gotta fuel the rage machine

mighty valley
#

you kind of get a feeling for just mashing it to release the rage safety valve

median tulip
#

Every Ignore Pain is 3.5s off the CD of Avatar and Shield Wall

strong forum
#

and a 3.5% heal

#

and 1.2 stacks of seeing red

chrome falcon
#

ok is anyone else having this shit where you go from 5 stacks of SR to outburst

#

with one ignore pain

#

because i do not get it

strong forum
#

uuh

median tulip
#

and some extra banner

fiery badge
#

So what do we spend outburst on

strong forum
#

maybe youre pressing IP + Rev

chrome falcon
#

SS

fiery badge
#

Not thunderclap?

chrome falcon
#

no

#

SS

strong forum
#

outburst almost exclusively on SS

#

cuz of the rage

median tulip
chrome falcon
#

no

strong forum
#

you got a log

hazy edge
#

I also swear I'm getting SR stacks from Revenge! procs

#

at times

chrome falcon
#

i did but it's gone now but this shit happens all the time so i'll get one later

strong forum
#

same asa

chrome falcon
#

you can go from 7 stacks

#

to outburst

#

with a proc

strong forum
#

ive tested it yesterday but couldnt replicate it on a dummy

chrome falcon
#

but that's it

#

using a proc at 7 stacks gives outburst every time

#

but otherwise you don't get one

#

i abuse that shit with reprisal

cinder storm
#

I've gotten 8 stacks of seeing red without outburst proc, what about that?

chrome falcon
#

yeah good fuckin question

#

i don't understand that iether

strong forum
hazy edge
#

I think the 8 stacks no proc is just being like 2 rage under what's needed or something

anyone know who that german fellow on the podcast was? im a big fan of what they were sayin

pretty sure thier names were on the title

mortal brook

how could that narrow things down

to be fair

chilly brook

I miss the old Steve outfit

grave crane

it gives you 3 names of who it could be?

in the 9.1 podcast the names were switched up due to a cam turning off

Is warrior the most reliant tank on their group ?

urban portal
#

Depends on your metric

strong forum
#

probably

#

a well played pwar can only play well if his group does aswell

#

in decently high keys

blazing condor
#

thats why i suck

lofty widget
tropic linden
#

U can need just 5 more rage for a stack

#

and a IP gives u 2 in this case

strong forum
#

shit was even worse before the rework

#

where IP would grant you your 7th and 8th stack

#

and consume the buff at the same time

Wowzers if tank did 25% less damage DPSers (that are worth their weight) would steal so much aggro...

#

tanks should not deal dmg

only eat dmg

not heal dmg

hold aggro

and just CC and be tanky

that was his take

That's so dumb

strong forum
chilly brook
#

who wants to play that

that mentality worked like 20 years ago

toxic pewter
#

phial is so good more i think about it

#

sort of want a 2nd dps trinket

#

should I just get a sack and use it over scale

sturdy sable
#

I do

toxic pewter
#

yea I think i will just try that

waxen orbit
#

I just use sack and scale

#

Pretty decent combo

toxic pewter
#

is sack better than phial if u guys had to say (sry if this has already been dicsused)

waxen orbit
#

Can swap out scale for aegis too

waxen orbit
#

Phial better for M+ overall damage

sturdy sable
#

Phials also got str on it

waxen orbit
#

Sack better for ST

#

For bosses

#

But that’s it

#

I just run sack because no 9.2 Phial yet

toxic pewter
#

yah the phial str is so strong

#

its really hard to give it up

restive oak

phial is about 4% of my overall usually

toxic pewter
#

is inquantible quantable device any good

mighty valley
#

it's ok, it's nowhere near as good as it sims

#

you have to work a bit to try and make sure you don't get the bad procs

urban portal
#

its better in m+

#

i would rather just run OPC

#

OPC pulls crit which is our best damage stat

chilly brook
#

OPC far better on use

toxic pewter
chilly brook
#

tons of different factors

#

your health

#

your groups health

#

your targets health

#

the healers mana

toxic pewter
#

ineresting

hollow kayak
toxic pewter
#

oh interesting

mighty valley
#

it's pretty good if you use it on pull in m+ with a healer whose mana never really goes down and everyone's healthy

#

but every time you get some meaningless mana restore proc or healing proc it gets much worse very fastr

urban portal
#

opc should just be better a lot of the time

#

especially since our burst is whatever

lilac bloom
#

O

#

i'm now reknown 51 on necro but i still can't get glory leggo.. it says unlock on 48 but how do i get it

hollow kayak
#

Should just be using unity I think, then you don't have to worry about it. Go do the zerith mortis campaign.

lilac bloom
#

i've got unity

#

max

#

my other leggo is reprisal

hollow kayak
#

Then you don't need the standalone glory legendary.

lilac bloom
#

oh.. i though its soemthing good

#

ok

chilly brook
#

unity=glory

lilac bloom
#

oh i see

hollow kayak
#

Unity just changes to the covenant legendary automatically, depending on which cov you're in currently. It switches with you.

chilly brook

unity=all covenant legendaries

what is the logic with no clap during ravager

Hope u don't offspec

mortal brook
#

PunOko

tropic linden
cinder storm
sick sentinel
#

i think someone was saying in m+ you almost never want to hit tc if ravager is down

tropic linden
#

No

#

The reason is that u generate so much rage that ur almost always overcapping

mighty valley
#

you don't TC if spending that GCD is just going to cause you to overcap anyway, wasthing the rage you would've got

tropic linden
#

So u want to only spend

#

But the rule is that if TC is up, SS is down and ur not gonna overcap, press it

mighty valley
#

it's usually only when rav + LS are both running or you have a lot of your big rage generators back to back

tropic linden
#

it's a trap to ignore TC

#

Wasted a lot of rage, but 1300 only from TC

#

That's a lot to ignore

oblique garnet
#

How are you gonna overcap rage

#

Are you pooling rage?

#

For what

#

Slap that ip harder so you dont waste rage

tropic linden
#

Yeah, need to improve my CPM

tropic linden
#

Did something rlly dumb that helped in the last dungeon i did. Created a macro that is
/cast IP
/cast revenge

Not to substitute any skill, to smash when there is a ton of rage when LS and ravager is up

jagged pier
#

u do not do that

#

ever

#

delete it

tropic linden
#

Why press 2 buttons when i can press 1?

#

Is not like i don't have a separete button for IP and revenge

jagged pier
#

cast sequence macros are bad

#

u do not use them

urban portal
#

you are putting priority on IP that way

jagged pier
#

espeically when it comes to rage management

urban portal
#

with that macro you need 3 buttons for 2 abilities

tropic linden
#

Yeah, it's not in this order, revenge come first. But that's the idea

urban portal
#

still would be overspending on IP, you could get into a situation where you cant shield block that way

#

very easily

tropic linden
#

Is harder to manage rage in M+ than in raid IMO

tropic linden
#

Big pulls where i have LS and ravager out for example

#

i just don't press if i know i'm gonna be low in rage

urban portal
#

having a button for each ability seperately and another one to macro them together seems like a lot of work

#

3 buttons for 2 abilities

cinder storm
#

One of the main things I use in macro is charge/intervene, I had banner+avatar and realized that was making me play worse

urban portal
#

yeah dont like wasting an avatar global on banner

cinder storm
#

I agree with the rest, I wouldnt use ip+revenge either

tropic linden
#

Cause i usually smash both skills when i have a lot of rage

chrome falcon
#

it's just bad i don't even know how to explain it

tropic linden
#

And sometimes i can't press fast enough IP and overcap

chrome falcon
#

it just is

#

then learn to press IP faster

how can anyopne here say that this is no problem

There's not much you can do to force people to take you

Can't get declined

if I'm the one with the key

never work

It's not just IO though; you get people inviting a Priest healer, mage lock and spriest, and then wondering why shit goes uninterrupted

stuck kite

why i dont do that

chilly brook

80% of the time it's an easy time

anyway no good players tagging only 2k7 folks

Can pushing your own key be frustrating?

#

Sure

stuck kite
#

yup can be 100% frustrating anyway

More frustrating than hoping people just decide to be nice and invite a prot warrior over a blood dk into their keys?

#

no

Especially not if you learn what to look for when inviting people

over a blood dk or just a monk or just a pal

you're 2.8k

There are like what? 5 other tank specs? All of which are considered better by the community and out of those likely there are players with over 3k applying to the key

how do you go about choosing people

or give them a scenario of what might occur in the key and ask how they would react

toxic pewter
#

I am going to ask prospective dps trivia questions about the dungeon

chilly brook
toxic pewter
#

wat curse in there

chilly brook
#

The big red circle that the casters put on people that one shot them if it goes off

toxic pewter
#

o curse of obliteration

chilly brook
#

Or you need a poison/disease dispell for PF

toxic pewter
#

i just didnt time a HoA

#

cuz dps died on last boss statues

median tulip
#

ooof

toxic pewter
#

oh do you know last boss how can i soak all 4 lazers at once

#

ive seen people do it

chilly brook
#

You can get 2

#

Not sure you can get 4

toxic pewter
#

oh just 2

#

i thought 4

median tulip
toxic pewter
#

didnt warriors used to have a purge

#

i swear

median tulip
#

You can get all 4 beams, but it's really fluky positioning

toxic pewter
#

Yeah I want to get all 4

median tulip
toxic pewter
#

ya

#

they should bring that back

median tulip
#

I don't know when it stopped doing that

toxic pewter
#

prob cata or mists

chilly brook
#

It was a glyph for shield slam

median tulip
#

You can pray 🙏 for it to return in Dragonflight

toxic pewter
#

we need to get it back tbh

#

it is a major utility warrior used to have

median tulip
#

It made Pallys QQ in battlegrounds

toxic pewter
#

good

#

nothing better than a crying pally

chilly brook
#

Just like paladins used to be able to get Glyph of Consecrator which made consecrate center on the paladin and follow them around

median tulip
#

Thunderclap used to slow melee attack speed

chilly brook
#

Hey but guess what

#

Glyphs are coming back

median tulip
#

Thunderclap also used to have an increased threat multiplier; I'd love to get that back

chilly brook
#

This year

#

Time to play Wrath

median tulip
#

Bleh

#

I logged into Classic, and very quickly remembered why you should never go back; the gameplay systems are distinctly lacking from a modern perspective

chilly brook
#

Sure

#

But classic isn’t wrath

#

I mean like wrath isn’t a paragon of difficulty

toxic pewter
#

I remmeber when DK could tank in any spec

median tulip
#

IDK, I quit at the end of TBC

chilly brook
#

But it also has a lot of stuff that I definitely feel were better from a gameplay perspective

#

Deterministic loot/bad luck protection through badges

#

Is a great example

toxic pewter
#

got 2 dungeons showing on my raider IO as not timed

#

now I am a pariah

#

fuckin asshole dps gotta ruin good run every time i tell you

#

do you guys just leave if it isnt going to be timed

wanton ridge
#

Only leave shitfest

toxic pewter
#

How do i get into groups people dont want non timers

wanton ridge
#

And only if the tank/heal leave first

cinder storm
#

I've left a handful of keys myself, last one was a gambit where the 3 hunters NEVER targeted fish sticks, nor had damage

I feel wrong leaving if theres no other option

any tanking tips for millhouse in dos? Group keeps strugling with DOS 24

#

I'm not particularly struggling but im sure i can do it better

sick sentinel
#

i hate those buzzsaw stacks and she runs so fast

shell shale
#

she roots you if you get too far lmao

#

first time ive seen that

cinder storm
#

Talk about putting things in crazy

sick sentinel
#

whats the strat for dealing with those, wait till she cast and intervene/leap out

shell shale
#

nope

#

just eat it

#

spell reflect a stack of it

cinder storm
#

She chases you, fast

#

Try to grab a bomb as soon as they spawn, your healer should be on you all the time if possible

sick sentinel
#

i mean, you state she roots u, cleanse + avatar + potion if you are desperate

#

there is a potion that de-stuns and something else you

cinder storm
#

You also want to keep her in place to stun her

sick sentinel
#

im not expert on this sorry i just sayin i hate that mechanic of that boss

cinder storm
#

We all do, she trucks

sick sentinel
#

i need to convince my groups to all use urh urh goes brr i tell them

cinder storm
#

Staggering urh helps, I often wonder if it's best to not SR the deconstruct, but on Millhouse the frontal is annoying to dodge with lasers

sick sentinel
#

that's a dps fight entirely millhouse

cinder storm
#

Yeah but when you have to avoid the slam Millhouse moves with you, and a few lasers on him for a sec hurts on tyrannical

sick sentinel
#

what smash

#

im thinking about phase 1 of gnomes dos

#

u mean shadow fury for interupt chickens? or one milly does and its a Z/ N of spikes, you can definitely wipe if those 2 attacks don't hit, and they happen at certain % hp im pretty sure if you push too hard may activate chickens with no SF to stop it

undone verge
#

If I want haste, is Soleh or heroic OWS better

mighty valley
#

kinda easy to just compare the numbers yeah?

#

OWS uptime should be almost as good as soleah's

#

unless you don't trust yourself to chain pull

sick sentinel
#

depends on lvl of secret, assuming 278, i'd say secret

trim bay
#

More Millhouse to right hand side. As the crystals spawn there

#

Move the other dude to the left hand side as the bombs run that way. You can zoom in and get every bomb as well as the tank. The attack is physical so just make sure you have block up.

@shell shale I don’t think there’s anyone in here doing 24’s or higher

#

@shell shale on millhouse charge whenever hes stunned and when youre reflecting his bolt, for Millie charge when she's stunned and leap+charge in a pinch, rotate wall, trinket, sr etc for the bleed when youre gonna get high stacks, and obv dont commit major cds if she's getting stunned after applying 2-3 stacks

cinder storm
#

It's a matter of commitment, there are people who would leave a key without even trying, that's demoralizing. I too would take someone with untimed runs/missing key level over someone who has timed the key already in many cases

toxic pewter
#

How much dps should dps being doing in a +19

mighty valley
#

lots of factors

toxic pewter
#

Well what’s the minimum in your view

#

Overall dungeon

#

If I outdps one of them overall then something is wrong right

mighty valley
#

idk, i've timed something like that with everyone sub 10k

toxic pewter
#

Because two 19s today I outdps one of them and didn’t freaking time

#

Yeah but still

mighty valley
#

i mean that's the real thing, if you're not timing it they're not doing enough

#

you can poke around logs for some averages

toxic pewter
#

Yeah true

#

Just frustrated because it makes me look bad on raider io

#

I gotta run my own keys

cinder nova

It's huge, yeah.

sharp dew
#

if you're trying to get the reprisal legendary from twisting corriders, does it need to be a certain layer?

grave crane
#

i think it has to be above a 3?

#

or maybe 6?

urban portal
#

3

sharp dew
#

Did they change the scaling on it or something because at 225 ilvl layer 1 I can't even pull the the floor at floor 14 and it says 170ilvl rec

mighty valley
#

hmm I have no idea, but pulling the floor isn't even fast, just kill the boss and move on

sharp dew
#

yeah but how do I get to him without getting rid of the mobs all the way there lol

#

Is there an invis/stealth thing you can use?

mighty valley
#

nah I just mean, walk along the edge and kill as you go

#

some floors you barely have to look at anything along the way

#

maybe this is harder in TC where it goes high enough that it expects basically all powers, idk been a long time

ionic fern
trim bay
#

What key did you do that only went for 20 or so minutes?

hazy edge
#

15 hoa

#

carried some rat alts for my guildies

trim bay
#

That's good. The higher the key the lower the uptime? Or should be pretty consistent

hazy edge
#

mmmm when I do 20-22s I usually get 70-80% uptime depending on the key

#

a bit lower cause I cant just facepull 3 inspiring mobs together

ionic fern
#

And if it's a hpriest then say "If you were a InsertRandomHealerClassHere it would have been fine!"

hazy edge
#

Oh trust me I tried lol

#

But taking that manly wicked bolts in a row after ls, sw, and sr are all on cd hurts a lot

#

Only key it didn’t really matter in was dos cause the only time you can pull more than one inspired mob on together you just get to urn and Nike them

cinder storm
#

moved up to a dos 24, damage intake was not as scary as I expected

#

my goal this season is to do 25s and call it a day

Are you guys spamming ip to survive or is prot pretty tanky and you can spam some revenge-non proc'd here and there

Yes

For fuck sake

I dont kmow why you would far more dangerous things to SR

#

And with the 25% increased damage u do more damage with sr

raven hatch
#

I mean, probably… but honestly it can’t hurt in some situations

jagged pier
#

🤷 i honestly dont even feel destruct

cinder storm
#

Unless you think you want urh for a specific thing like gambit last boss soak or something similar

raven hatch
#

I certainly feel the pain if Uhr isn’t burned in some packs

#

But that’s probably less to do with deconstruct and more to do with the packs

cinder storm
#

It's more of an annoyance, I don't feel the deconstruct either

raven hatch
#

I died to a force slam in dos 25 the other day 😳 honestly, I wish I could shadow play it but my hard drive was full, but I swear I must have been on the absolute edge of that damn thing

#

And then in PF 24 I was fleshcrafting with sigil and slam was about to go off, uhr was close to dying and I figured with the verse buff + a bit of a shield I’d be fine 😂 I was wrong, but 100-0

#

Recovered that one though, but the dos was rip

cinder storm
#

Just had a top 24 depleted, a rogue died twice on banner boss, first death urh slammed on the banner that was on the edge the same time the boss jumped, then the rogue was mad because I was not supposed to keep urh there

#

Both slam and banner were close to the edge. Sucks to suck

hey guys, what is ideal route for gambit? I want ideally one route for every week, I'm pretty annoyed to change routes depeneding of affix...
I think the best overall way is kill Wo from start, go straight to boss and rest of dung. After last boss just go back to murlocs to fill % counter? what do you think? or do you have some better tips ?

lime urchin
#

That’s how we do it

#

I am not sure what affixes would change that routing

jagged pier
#

Back tracking is never useful

#

I just go left clear all the murlocs to the second enlightneed pack then skip

#

No need to back track then

blazing condor
#

i just bl first pack then clear the upper part of the murloc area towards the first boss, dont take any big giants and just normal invis to 1st

#

bl 2nd and then 3rd when it comes back

lime urchin
#

1st boss doesn’t really need lust right?

blazing condor
#

can miss out on bl on last if youre fast though but that hasn't happened much for me

#

not in terms of "we need lust cus its difficult", no

lime urchin
#

So a bl on the murlocs, go wo, and have lust for 2nd

#

No no, I understand you

#

Just out of efficiency of lust timings

blazing condor
#

i dont wo skip to first personally but thats because i dont pull any giants when ive done it

#

meaning i need to clear to the entrance

but i havent ran gambit in 2 months cus i dont play

on tyrann im sure its worth to just pull in giants and wo

First pull 2 packs+ runners in middle and giant with lust

first three closest packs have no scalebinder in them

the left, right and top right ones

you can pull those 3 plus runners and even the giant if you want

cinder storm

I usually get the two on the beach, the encrypted, the one on the left and the runner, they die fast with lust, funningly the giant never gets pulled, maybe he has no social aggro to murlocs. Then I do a giant on top, scale binder pack, 3 packs to the hole that leads to the beach, another scale binder and last pack with the two scale binders then take wo

Many gret rio bad players

Yup

But yup just try your best to enjoy the run. And even if someone else fks the key dont think of it as time lost but practice for when you time that key next time. And maybe adjusting your route or game plan so people can be idiots and you dont get punished for it.

#

Being a tank is like a baby sitter

#

You make the routes and have to lead the little dps through it.

#

Like in halls if dps get thrusted its usually because they are idiots. But a good tank can make even the biggest of idiots have a hard time get thrusted

Yup! I been recording my runs lately and logging so i can see where i fked up.

Noticed alot of times where I should have used defensives differently or how i should have pulled a pack differently.

Also I highly recommend Omnicd addon. or something to track your teams offensive cds

#

Doesnt matter how many defensives you have for the next pull if none of your dps are gonna have cds to kill the pack.

When im playing dps it feels like tanks always pull when i dont have stuff keks

true

#

and then you go around holding CDs

shell shale

Yeah, I dont tank normally for my guild in raid. But most of the people in my guild perfer me in keys for that reason alone

dawn canyon
#

And get CDs midway in

echo egret
#

What do you do when your team doesn't have CDs, though, stay still and wait before pulling ? Or pull smaller and tweak your route ?

then you realize that relics are gone and your chance of looking good at boss damage is gone 😦

You pull smaller if nobody has CDs
