i mean theres no need to flask for m+
thats what i had to do
Also this
my BDK friend was one of those potion maker deal guys
Flasking 15s 
so if i somehow got my hands on the lotus or whatever i'd buy the other shit he needed and get him craft me 10 at at time
Using stuff in 15's
Not true but sure
Imagine if a stam flask was better than an int one for Demo
Would be fucking hillarious
That's some CN logs type shit
You stam flask Rally and stam pot

You're the math man, i trust 
well isnt the stam pot a fixed amount where rally is %
so u want as much stam before rallying
Biggest internal there ever was

stam flask+ls+rally for fleshcraft pre-key 


Actually tru tho
If you wanted to ultra min max, you'd swap flask multiple times a key
For hard hitting mechanics you'd stam flask
Then go back to Str
I've been using this all this time. Even cheaper
this is land of insano braino people
Noone does that
Im p sure at some point in your +30 career that's worth
800g is half a day of mission table
Half of rewards from daily cov stuff
I dont know why people dont have gold in SL
Its prob the best g/h outside of ah in a while
Depends on the quests
Quests that you can do while in m+
Are free gold
What % dps increase roughly am I providing for my dps in a m+ will I have conquers banner up? I know it vary based on how good mastery is for there class but just looking for a ball park number
A. Less than 1%
B. 1% - 5%
C. 5% - 10%
D. You should run kyrian in m+ and let them bring there own 400 mastery.
banner isnt for them
its a personal buff
and is far better for you than kyrian
more damage
more survivability
more rage
more everything
necro is a good 30-40% dmg increase FOR YOURSELF
and a 30%+ defensive gain for yourself aswell
if anything, rebannering is the most useful cuz you get kevin back
for dps players its like 1-5% of a dps gain
yes
Roger
I don't usually rebanner because of how i drop banner between pulls
well yeah thats entirely situational
Ok I am sorry I left out the personal benefit I am aware of it though.
So your saying Necro is a more personal benefit than kyrian
( if you press your buttons)
If you dont might as well kyrian
Because your banner uptime is gonna be low
well yeah, Kyrian is 300x easier to play, but Necro if played well gives you alot more benefits
I just swapped from kyrian. Iāve heard the term Kevinās oozeling and I assume itās good. I hope itās passive šš
read your soulbinds sir
He cant
Literally the only advantage Kyrian brings is a larger burst of Spike damage/threat on the pull
He is blind
cro memeing to hard to day
Once Iām done reading prot tool tips I will read talents. Then soulbinds and conduits.
For now Iāve been surviving on revenge and shield block
Yeah way more buttons on war
He is used to smash his head on keyboard
When Im not memeing?
š¤·
1.3 cpm on dn
Hope so


Hey, how does Leech compare to Avoidance? Should I prio one over the other?
15 mists, 2 shamans, paladin, me, no shield for anyone gatsu.mp3
You should do some rated battlegrounds or arenas.. can buy a decent shield and upgrade it. can use this until you find better shield
just need to reach like 1600 rating to get decent shield
So how good is Necrolord? Iāve been procrastinating on leveling it up
Terrible, go venthyr
The lawyer you can trust
Well now I know who to call, so thanks for that.
Iām just so used to Spear and big aoe burst
Hmm alright. My main group doesnāt have one so I guess Iāll get off my ass on it. You just (even more) aggressively mash buttons to get really long banners right?
specifically dont overcap is the hard thing
Use unnerving focus
throw it into IP a ton
I mean I already have plenty of times where I have to spam it to not max out on rage so I think I can do that lol
Why am I seeing people use Bonesmith over Marileth? š¤
Youll be doing it more
It sims better iirc
But most ppl just run marge
Since the difference is small and you have more potencys with marge iirc
Its been a while since ive thought about soul binds so i may be mistaken
Also to quote nom 90% of the top warriors rn dont play warrior correctly
Also why the fuck do I see so many M warriors running The Wall
Raid?
Yeah.
A couple of bosses you do
Like?
you don't run wall on ryg imo
Really?
Dude this is old info im going off
Would only recommend wall on dread
yeah
See i knew it was one of the penultimates
š ...did you say only 9 Pwarrs killed Ryg before 925?
well
it's at least 10
because jakey wouldn't be on there and i think he killed it?
That's still hilariously small.
it was 20 on anduin when i killed it and 19 on lords
only 3 on jailer
sense guild tank comp giga chads
7 kills on their classes combined
Where do you get the "out of" menu?
look at the actual log then rankings in the top right
I know tank parses are, by their nature, lower pop than healer/DPS but god damn.
Prot is completely barren lol
plus our biggest weakness is still w/ magic and bleeds and vers helps with that as well
You get 400 Mastery from banner and 120 from Marileth, so much more than that is kinda excessive. However, I would not particularly go large on Versatility either, at least in keys; Critical Strike is very valuable for DPS
Vers is good because itās the best stat vs magic damage
And itās also consistent and no rng
you also get more damage scaling
So does crit
don't overworry about other stats tbh
haste good others fine
mastery worst by a hair
And is generally just an alright offensive and defensive stat
also the only flat magic damage reduction for if you're doing gazongas keys
Not really worth stacking even with that fact tbh.
Thwump's doing 26s and still chugging along with haste
nobody said anything bout stackin
i wonder how much vers it would take for 1 key level of DR
like to make a 27 nuke hit like a 26
how much vers were ppl at by the end of bfa
so 30% dr?
CnS major vers 
Gotta go TD7 
Verse is multiplicative with key modifier right?
technically yes
yeah
all %DRs are
if key does 50% more damage and you take 50% less, itll be 1.5*0.5=0.75
??
You don't want a free tiddy?
nothing is free
driveway boy


playing my prot pally- its amazing how many fewer buttons they have to press lmao
Does it? Usually any %age HP effects get ignored by healing increases, including Vers
it is affected by it
is dh and dk dps just dogshit?
wdym
warlock said that when we were getting blown up dragon nw
he called the other dps dogs
thats just him being toxic
@sick sentinel toxic pig 100
havoc is alright but dk dps is actually really good
Yea it is
its always the player behind the screen. always.
well I think it was a doomed run from the get go, dh shows up first then dk, grabbed lock some reason, better if I just waited on a luster mage maybe
druid healer joined and left, then a priest came along so took them
i don't think the problem was comp
but that route and count are correct getting it consistent
can someone link a screenshot of prot warrior dps during execute phase. dumbass guildies arguing
squeak
well squeak is cheating
god damn it
let's see condemn prot logs
thanks nome
dont exist
don't it give w huge absorb based on damage and tons of stuff that buffs it
would be less as it hits for less
condemn sucks
necrolord is infinite execute cuz infinite rage and hits ALOT harder cuz of banner
š
nope wrong answer dos higher
blizzard would've had to buff condemn so much for it to keep up
but they're cowards
and instead buffed execute
that's what I did on rogue I got threat and boss aggro to me entire fight, we kill him
healers maldjng
vanish and he wouldn't lose aggro on me so what can do lol
thats literally it
Thatās the prot warrior fantasy

yah she does 35k melee swing if you dont mitigate, mixed with the magic dmg of bvarrier etc..
Whats the max duration on shield block?
18
Thanks
Casting new shield block doesnāt overwrite?
Casting a new shield block adds to the previous timer, up to the limit
Thatās very good to know ty
same with reprisal
literally all you have to watch out for it
is charge (4s)+SB+SB(12s)+intervene
all within 2 seconds
because that would waste 2 seconds of SB
that's the only way you can overcap SB
or during uhr, but in those windows it hardly matters since everything refeshes super fast
I was super worried about overwrites with reprisal this is kinda great
Simplifies using intervene too
Can sneak it in right after the first revenge
yeah just use it on CD so long as you don't have a revenge proc
Yep
Intervene is just a mini SB that procs revenge
I say ājustā as if thatās not extremely good
and 20 rage because why not
And free DR to the iq-freed dps youre playing with
what did they change in halls again? damage from the curch goers aoe i think
oh, and ghosts i think too that you have to put in the jars same thing
just the 3rd boss ghosts
think they hotfixed that one back
LOL
pls
forget macros.. just focus on what needs to be done
i can barely keep the uptime even in torghast š haha
A lot of what I have learned is linked with reprisal- you must master shieldblock first. Then, in time, you will master the banner uptime.
You must be charging and intervening. It is very high importance.
You can also practice on a training dummy
my halls key gunna be lookin like me rogue druid hunter druid healer
ohh, i found haxxors, Ultimate Form renders you immune to CC while you channel it, so if you know you are about to eat tornado affix start to channel FC and good to go
Yeah I gotta get on a dummy for sure
Literally like 30 mins of straight dummy slapping
There should be a skill reset button near the dummies
oh
there is?
everytime i fuck up i just sit there in shame until CDs are back
Haha same. No there isnāt. I wish there was.
Like even on my mage for lust. Gotta wait 10 mins for another opener with lust
Oh, it was there should as in that would make it better, rather than there's likely on there
Language suck we should just interact with guttural roars
and the appeal for me at least would be that like there would be rooms with like 1 raid boss target and 1 with 2-3 elite adds that pop up from time to time, and like maybe one is like, you have to kill this add in time or you have to try again, something like the challenge arena gold silver bronze and the brawler guild
lets someone who is a raid or guild leader have someone properly look at players damage in different scenarios in a vaccum
would be awesome to have proving grounds in an up to date way, maybe not as tough as the mage tower, i wasnt into that
how do i fully mitigate rygelon hit?
Why
What would be the point
MT is proving grounds but good
on heroic i just had SB up and IP typically did it. Demo shout and FC on CD
@grave crane i always got the debuff, so i assume i didnt mitigate correctly
Your gonna get the debut unless you have a full FC and IP and damage from the strike that isnāt mitigated turns j to the dot
unless you fully shield the hit you will get a dot
ahh so rygelon just sucks for us
Reminder this week if you are necro doing keys: Ultimate Form when you start to channel your Flesh Craft, you will gain CC immunity while it channels, its also a DR and heal. Use this in a scenario that you know you will get hit with the tornadoes.
Think rygelon trucks everyone but since we mitigate physical the best I would imagine we can take the least amount from his dot if played correctly
rygelon is absolutely murdering me on mythic
had our first proper night on it just now
but it's also trucking my bdk co-tank so
yeah it's just brutal for everyone
also the raid damage is so crazy at times that you don't get a ton of healer love
Healers heal
Definitely felt like there were times I was healing myself , right now weāre progging heroic jailer and he doesnāt seem to rough
Easy clap bruh next up is the kill
I have a question and it may be pretty specific
How does shield stacking work?
Like specifically ignore pain and blood-spattered scale
I would imagine you can go to a tanking dummy get a full IP and then press scale and see which one is drained first. I would imagine IP though
I suppose that's a way to do it, lol. Follow up question, If they're cast in the right order, do you think I'll still get the 55% damage reduction through the Scale's shield?
Also how does this apply with disc bubbles or other sources of absorptions
@grave crane 7.7% wipes
sounds like it is execute time brother
IP isn't an absorb shield, though it's represented as one on your hp bar
it will simply reduce the next X damage by 55%
order of casting is irrelevant
so you'll take 55% reduced damage for the next like 15k or whatever dogshit value is on IP
and that will mean your scale goes down slower
awesome! Thanks for all the info Mattacate! Thats perfect
no clue in which the bubbles are eaten is calculated but it's incredibly easy to understand, you get a bubble or bubble like effect (absorption technical nsme) and... it stays on you for the time it says and protects against that much damage unless the buff is used up or timer runs out
nothing too hard to over think there is imagine
as for how multiple shields like PW:S and scale would interact
that might be order of casting
i'm not really sure
you want those bubbles right before you are going to take a boat load of damage
for example in bfa jes howlis had an ability that if you were Los it's hit you for like I dunno, total one shot on dps, I had some machines bandages with a on use of mega absorb for 10 seconds, so I hit that when he's doing ability I can sit there and atrack
i don't think you can say the way absorbs work is "incredibly easy to understand" immediately after saying you don't know how they work
especially considering IP looks like an absorb on your health bar but actually is not one
were regressing š¦ the holes are getting us
andrew my guild is 9/11M (not insane or anything but still) and we wiped like 4 times on our HC jailer kill last week
sometimes people's brains just turned WAY the fuck off
I'm also currently progressing on heroic jailer. We haven't beaten 35% yet
we had a 2% pull before our first kill where literally 3 people ran into a hole at once while trying to soak the p3 beam
We're also getting MC'd in p1 still after 89 wipes...
i have never seen a boss where people play worse than jailer
i don't know what it is but it turns normally decent players into absolute baboons
my group is comfortably heroic lol. We always get AOTC then kill the boss once or twice more then break until next season
nothing wrong with that
Man for some reason rygelon was the most wipes so far for us just cause people werenāt paying attention to the bombs
Yeah, we had some sub 30 second wipes. We ended up getting 152 before we downed him the first time
People just get too focused on other shit or something. And mess up sorta simple shit
this is our pull count for tonight
Been there not on mythic but heroic lol if it aināt my fault I just fucking vibe and reset but it can be annoying like guys get in the hole
DPS havin to do quasars on rygelon is anightmare, esp back when puddle on ground lasted 6secs instead of the 10-12 w/e it is now
way I understand the absorb is it's similar to how armor points and hit pints work in doom, using 50% Dr as base value you pick up 100 armor at 100 hp you then take 100 points of damage but don't die because armor was reduced and instead only took 50 to go and 50 to armor, I don't keep track of what the % absorb is attached to ip or a dos scale
yeah man we would not have had any pulls past 2 minutes pre-nerf tonight i'm pretty sure
Itās like thereās not much I can do guys Iām already tanking him On the edge just kill quasars and donāt use the hole
famous last words "there was nothing I could have done"
then I go watch my key video and actually it's not the rogue who pulled and I got angry at him.. whoops
Nah if I Fuck up Iāll own it like yeah my bad boys charged right into a jailer hole and walked to my death
that's why you need HC leap keybind on mouse wheel
so you can react to that and look like a massive beast
jump out of the hole
I already look like a goober for intervening the MM hunter on CD
don't worry, you'll go to jump out of the whole and get hit with the No Path Available classic
the mint "no path available"
Grats
Gratssss
mythic skolex doesnt have any changes from heroic right?
he hit like a truck on tank and you go have a enrage timer, Plus haffter burrow theres a big blue patch
melees or the combo?
The combo will 1 shot you without good CD management
Spell reflect every time and then make sure you have DS or SW or something
And full IPs
Call for externals etc
Also make sure your cotank has aggro at all times so you can reprisal
Donāt be scared to run out to charge
how is prot this patch havent touched it at all looking to pick my warr back up
for keys*
very good, very hard
hard in what sense
Necrolord Warriors pretty solid, get used to pressing a lot of buttons, but is entirely capable
like you collapse when magic dmg hits u?
Prot War's based on maintaining the Conq Banner buff nigh-forever via Glory
oh thats kind of cool
If you ever let it drop off, it's a massive loss of damage and survivability
It, along with 4p tier and reprisal, allows you to generate absurd amounts of rage,
Which feeds into Anger Management and Banner upkeep, which means more uses of Avatar and longer banner, which is more rage... and so on
In order to keep this up, you should be aiming for like an average of 70 casts per minute
so you're pressing a few buttons at least, and if you press buttons at the wrong time and do something like waste an outburst proc, the entire chain crumbles due to banner falling off
Haste makes the gameplay a lot smoother, but Prot War benefits from its main performance being based pretty much entirely on skill; even if you're nigh dead on haste while gearing, you can still comfortably keep banner up
This makes Prot War all a lot harder than your other tanks, but makes for a fast-paced gameplay style that's a lot better than the general public thinks they are, as most people will fuck this up
now excuse me as i continue to get turned down for +2s
lool
okay im sold
isnt that cursed though from going pack to pack
like in dos or w.e
Just chain pull : )
others can give you more specific advice for dungeons, i'm only like a mid-tier type player at best
But generally, RP and long times without fighting can be rough
Your overall goal at least is to try and make each banner use last close to 2 min or over 2 min, so if the buff needs to drop, you can put it back up by like, actually casting the ability again
there is a party benefit to pressing conq banner
we really don't care about that
wew halondrus down 
Can someone tell me why people still aim the first boss of NW's breath on the group like 1.5 year into the expansion?
Just curious
Like a deer in fucking headlights lmao
"If I have to get hurt, then so do you" š
Chain pull
Your group can deal with it
Had a healer complain I was going too fast
What a fucking brilliant way to brick an easily 2 chestable 27
Unfuckingbelievable
They were Horde

Alliance
Idk man lots of shitter DPS I've played with recently are Horde
Theres alot of them
Like if I could take a shot for every dogshit 3200-3400 Orc warlock from Illidan I've played with that barely squeaked past 17k overall in the past 3 days
I'd get alcohol poisoning
It's not really faction specific
Bro that's b/c you're playing with a 2.1k io DPS
Listen man you might be good, but that DPS player is probably stuck at 2.1k for a reason 
As fury war 4 set is crack
Shit man im dogshit
When you outdps a dps as a banner prot

Not awful on my part
Not amazing
But not awful
Def could have upped that by 1.5k minimum if I pulled the entire second platform together with orb, but our kyrian's steward was on CD so had to go teenie
And separate pulls there
Btw that was a 23 we had of it. Decided to just 2 chest that and get a 25 of something else we need
Not the 26
If that wasn't abundantly clear
quick question, is Sack from streets good?
Very good
I used both for awhile there
I'm gonna be using Sack and Countermeasure from Legion
You should really pump st
fingers crossed
Well got the shield off mythic guardian tonight.
Died on the kill and am playing fury so poorly. I'm missing tanking in raid.
Thankfully I have keys.
Keys are the safe space
100%
Starting to play Prot, is the pin still up to date regarding Covenants? I see most high rated Prots play Necro but Iād like to play Kyrian as I worry about Aggro as Noob š¶
Your aggro on pull will be good as Kyrian within the first seconds.
Overall your threat and survivability will increase if you have mastered Necro.
The bonus in strength and mastery is very strong if you can maintain a good banner uptime.
Necro is a 30% damage increase and more than that for survivability
Okay makes sense, so maybe just start playing with Necro from the beginning I guess
Learn prot the right way
Yea u right
it gets more intuitive along the way
Thanks š
I mean it's fine to play kyrian if you want, but if you wanna play it right you do in fact play necro
400 mastery and ~20% strength are 30% more damage, when Kyrian has a damaging ability?
We can all agree itās better, but 30% sounds like a very hot take for me.
That's what nome usually drops number wise
22% str + 400/520 mastery +4rage per sec
Your rage gen increases massively with banner
And that 30% is meant not over other covenants
In aoe necro is pretty much equal to kyrian
But you're much much tankier and have 2k+ St dps dmg more
Spear also gives rage.
Defensively I think 30% is legit, but in the offensive I canāt imagine those values. Didnāt the spear + Kyrian procs deal like 20% of the total dmg or something?
ST necro AJ absolutely above any next level
Lemme rephrase
Wtf am i saying
Necro St big good
Ah. Okay. Thatās were the misunderstanding came from.
Spear gives 48ish rage every 40sec, banner grants 160 rage over 40sec
Some things just aren't made equal
Tbh with execute buff i would run ashen in keys now tbh as well
I mean i did anyway because im lazy
But i think its better than SoF now
I wanna thank everybody in this channel for all the help, I've finally reached 3k, you're awesome!
I'm huge
:susge:
I think u jave a higher score than me KeK
get lapped idiot
š¤
Those 2 HC were boost
supposedly guild managament wants to boost me through last 74 points of KSM tonight as why bust my key for pugs
only a 16, so i can't imagine its that hard, halls or not, but if i can get a free win, sure, why not
unless the key went horribly wrong i usually try to be nice and courteous to players in my keys
i try to come up with a route that has notes and relics, give it to them, explain what we have to do before key starts and give them a pull timer, then at end i'll almost always say GG and offer loot i didn't need, tell them TY for coming, even if we didn't time it, (and that's okay with me)
Social contact enjoyers
Thats not hard
Explaining probably isnt needed for most keys nowadays
Its not like vdh heals mobs on st
i've usually been like this, less in BFA, i was more toxic then
but at some point a switch flipped around SL and everytime i finished a dungeon was GG when final boss died, TY for coming, do you need this ring?
Boost would be them getting another tank and just 4 manning
Id call it friendly help :p
You can do a 16 without a healer
i could just do the key my self, and not get boosted, but like i say why NOT take the free win?
For sure you can do it with a cripple tank
i pugged every single other key, my own key to this point even is my key tonigt i think
no voice comms none of that, never paid a single gold to anyone for a run
i mean i could pug it just as easily too, im not sure a 16 will give 75 points
https://raider.io/characters/us/area-52/Tankian this one is me
i don't think im overthinking anything, im just excited because then i'll finally have done it tonight or this week
After 1 entire expansion of quitting before it?
He prob gonna quit after ksm
EASY ksm then
yep š thats the plan

dont forget to afk on ksm mount rest of the sub
soon as i get KSM make a shitty mog around it or somethin, then do my victory laps in oribos and quit
just get a hall and plaguefall done
At this point ksm mount is like the mounts you get for free
the actual only reason i return to wow, so focused on it i left the maw weekly quest i had not finished in my active quests for a month after resub

you did everything in reverse, you have a lot of high ilvl stuff but still a shitty shield you could had replaced with one you can buy off zereth mortis
Its not like it matters
it make it harder for no reason š
Sure
i got to revered and then stopped doing so much ZM content, i'll do enough to finish cyphers but thats a slow grind and i have the unity thing now
Shield would have made everything easier
theres a green sword i want, thats about it from ZM
Thats some Next lvl copium
(id still be complaining i died even if i did have 278 shield btw)

Thanks for watching!
no its best to follow the bandwagon
oh well he could team with a shaman and his elemental gonna do the tanking š
hey stop revealing my secrets
holy trinity playing with boomy tree, shaman elemental and mage kiting
also ultimate form hacks against tornadoes (NL); you gain cc immune during channel FC, can't be yeeted
i prefer to just step in it
i dont even pay attention to storming its like a very stupid affix, you can just slowly kite or take them all for the dps
This also lets you get a full 20 stack against 2nd boss streets, big tech
The correct one 
i dont check journal
you just look at the screen and if there is a tornado near by you move mobs out if you can
i think oasis is the correect second boss
it moves slow enough and predictably enough that any player shouldn't having that much trouble with them
its funny how tazavesh was so nerfed they became such easy key now
its always clockwise now
im going to miss shadowlands once its gone, there was a lot of crap, but there was a ton of good ideas in there too
maldraxxus especially was just my favorite overall
well wont bve long next season all dungeon change theres none from shadowland i think
wil be fun i wasnt there for WoD
before this i re-started in BFA launch, started as prot warrior never look back
quit after panda.2 patch
i liked the liches and abombinations and goo creatures and undead necropolis bases everywhere, i thought that was one of the most well done zones, the story in bastion is good but boring place
maldraxxus too much ooga booga for you?
yes, i fee like all stories besides bastion were very lacking
maldraxxus could have had the primus story, venthyr could have had a bunch of bad ass stuf about the dreadlords, NF whatever the creatures attacking were i guess
i can't stand that zone, but i'll go there willingly
looks like im gettin cyhper shield
Anyone else just drool when they look up a Sense log?
Just found a random 28 Mists and compared some EHRPS to a BDK and Monk... Crazy low healing needed
had a 42k crit shiled block last night haha
hilarious seeing a 42k pop up during a big trash pack

dont flame him yet he hasnt been a driveway in a few days š
share
Who are you to tell kohl anything
can't believe i agree with the eu br
br
Jfc
13k on wclogs
Thatās like 15k+ on details?
Pumpernickel
Why did he press hamstring thatās a dps loss šš
i can't say the variance of dps on wcl vs details, like i can't say the difference in % absorb in a scale trinket vs ip vs priest absorb bubble >.> but pretty much what you said yes
i just know if you have the bubble, your less likely to die, so ideally you want one before (nuke) hits
what do you mean yogi
% absorb of scale trinket or priest bubble
those don't absorb %s
Maybe got it macrod to charge some people do that
he did it on the soulcleaver which is a mob that you want to kite
... or it was an accident
but slowing the soulcleaver is valuable if you have no-one else in the group to do it
Ah makes sense. Haha I was mostly kidding I am no place to critique anything about that log
it's a reasonable question
sometimes people post logs and they have like 30+ hamstring casts
because it's accidentally macro'd into charge from pvp
probably an accident, tc slow should be fine to kite those
since the last time i reset my details which includes a m+ and some dailies i've casted hamstring once

yeah, only did it because the guy was getting chased by the duo in NW after you clear first trash
we had 3 melee in group
What
i've seen those guys deleted way too many dps because they don't know to run away to not intervene and remind them and then attack/folllow the mob chasin em
What guys
you cant slow those
^
after you clear the room
it's just WAY after the first trash
like, the literal last trash pack of the dungeon
but technically, still after first trash
im talking about first wave of trash that spawns in, but first trash if you kill it all one pull

i have to clarify something here
you know that IP is the only "absorb" that works as a % DR, right
it only reduces it, and you can still die with it up, yes
like the doom analogy i used, simply, 100 hp, 100 armor, hit with rocket for 100 hp, you lose 50 hp 50 armor
ok so why did you mention scale and priest absorb bubbles which are totally different 
but ok as long as you don't think other absorbs work like that
i think he meant he didnt know the % difference between their respective absorbs?
like the numerical difference
because, i only really understand how prot warrior works, and loosely at that i guess
i take nothing for granted
it's a net positive is what im trying to say and its just simply a matter of timing it, no scenario you wouldn't want to, less it falls off/eaten instantly

(don't actually do that as a habit, TC and stuns should be good enough)
š
oh fuck
they're releasing talent tree previews
druid and dk done so far please god
if they show the prot warrior tree i don't know what i'm going to do with myself
show it cowards
My one and only hope
Okay, that's a lie.
Devestator baseline would be good too.
my old server was so bad that my and friends got rank 1 m+ that realm basically by just existing and doing up to 10's, later 15's, i had #1 warrior tank on that server #2 tank overall is buddy
looks like just druid and dk today
oh well
maybe we get warrior in like 3 months
Probably
how about storm bolt baseline and talented it silences if it connects with interuppetable spell, long range pummel longer CD
well
they're showing some of the talent trees
here's to hoping they show warrior and AM is just baseline

if they took the entire bottom row talents and made that baseline, add reprisal talent, we good
The new "baseline" will the the talent tree
some of them you just get for gaining levels
according to the post
like i feel its wrong that it's not a baseline part of prot pally holy shield
how the entire spec works basically, most iconic combat active ability they have and rely on.
so far dk aint that bad nerf on some stuff but new one too
anyway its still far from release
Where?
wowhead
druid seems to lose a lot of utility
0 percent chance after seeing dks
blizzard is adding more shitty stupid fucking raid/party buffs
im overwhelmed holy shit
DW feedback is being provided
I don't play either of these classes, so I lack the basis to really judge how they are
Thereās several leggo effevts in the Druid trees so prot will probably have wall and reprisal if I had to guess
Dk is getting shafted quite hard, druid looks really good tho
Druid looks great for my pvp alt
druid is getting some effects back that i really like
Havenāt looked at DK yet but if theyāre listening to feedback Druid is doing good
more buffs = mega cringe
yo wtf
Yeah more raidbuffs are making a comeback
yeah and then they got rid of a bunch of raid buffs because they suck a fat one
and now they're adding them back in
so
zzz
Thatās fair I donāt really mind that but I can see why it would be annoying
It's part of class fantasy, but the game has gone directions where math just beats every sense of fantasy
And that mark of the wild seems pretty fucking huge for raiding
So you'll 100% want a druid in
Which is another mandatory slot requirement to fill
ez š
it's one (boring) way you can make sure at least one of every class is "meta"
š
needing every class cringe >> stacking one class cringe
uunat says hello
u fkin degenerates
but yeah none of the stuff people are asking to be "baseline" will actually be in the base abilities, but will probably be in very easy to reach places in the tree to where they might as well be
speed š
speed bis stat
was only like that for world 1st shenanigans, wasn't needed at all
Classic 
99% of the time only WF guilds get punished for not class stacking
but everyone gets punished for not having 1 of everything you need
10 warriors 10 rogues let's go

god
our druid is gonna miss a raid
and someone is gonna stand in some shit because they greeded to cast
idk man can't think of anything relevant now but i like class buffs so my opinion is still better than yours

and i'm unironically going to hear "sorry matt, but i would have lived if we had speed buff i was so close"
yeah well i have to make raid comps so i fuckin hate that shit 
i dont ultra hate it but its super annoying for sure
i actually don't hate it for m+
I like class buffs but at the same time I hate not having some, aka missing out on some
like maybe there's some class that's giga scaled with crit
so they really like having a boomie
that's cool
but for raids it's just another checklist
Idk it's a weird spot
Feels shit when there are buffs out there but you can't have them or feel forced to get them
raids are a big giant checklist if your inclined to be reductionist
life is a big giant checklist. boom reduced
yeah sure so stop adding more checklists
The people asking for things to be baselined have not read any of the stuff they've been saying for months about the new design philosophy. Instead of baselining "must have" abilities, they have provided a plethora of talent points so it's easier to get the things you consider must have while still having freedom to choose other things. You can disagree with their approach all you want, but the fact is that's the philosophy they are using to design things
it's also just a cheap way to make your game look more balanced
oh DH is dogshit? doesn't matter, still gotta bring one
It all depends on how much value it actually adds right, for example I seriously doubt that @jagged piers guild really needs him on monk
Cuz it's literally the least useful raid buff
yeah monk buff sucks
monks suck
because all the melee dps do like 80% magic damage now anyway
But RL says no cuz pepega
Which is just so dumb
feral
Well we have like 2 rogues warrior 2 dhs, and hunter so it is a fair bit of phyiscal damage
Ok I checked DK tree it doesnāt look bad. Blood seems theyāre making tier set talents and itās got some decent stuff
Dh and rogue is like 80% magical dmg tho
^
Sub is mostly shadow dam unless itās like outlaw?
depending on their spec those rogues are like only doing physical damage with autos and backstab
Im aware, its an arguement im not going to win tho
well this is true
And I'm 
So they made you switch to Brew for no real gain?
well what i am seeing really
just explain that after the execute buff you do more dps as prot than you gain from shitty mystic touch anyway
plus the rally
that's cringe though yeesh
isn't you guys cringing at class buffs
3 rally > 2 rally
but cringing at overthinking raidcomps
ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ
i'd probably make someone reroll monk if i didn't already have a WW
or recruit one
I guess yeah but like I would imagine the gain from mystic is not gonna make or break the kill?
like 500-ish? but that's irrelevant to how hard the boss is and how much you should/need to optimise
what does rank have to do with it
Usually Player skill
probably not but we're also talking about the weakest raid buff
10
in this particular example maybe it doesnt
Unless the raid is stacking like warriors?
almost every guild that has killed jailer past #50 has been basically gear capped
barring a few trinkets
this tier is pretty diff in the gear regard
From my pov it's outrageous to bring brm over prot just cuz of the buff
When pwar is literally the strongest spec on jailer
well especially considering rally is fucking GIGA on jailer too nomer
For the important phase
it's pretty insane
bring 2 prots so both dont hafta worry about threat
Well thats the thing, they had to bench our WW for reasons and they didnt want to recurit someone just so i can play warrior. Ive argued my point and i cba doing the actual maths. But it is what it is, im not going to win

But dratnos says prot war are bad?
Turn 22k to like 24k?
š¤·āāļø
honestly i need a second prot warrior so i don't rip threat in execute
Tried explained that
23100 but yeah I rip threat from VDH sometimes
vdh does negative threat doe
i cant even go all out on pull that we lust unless i say ill start with boss
"sometimes"
first shield slam he go for me
Literally no tank can hold threat again pwar for long in execute
Both hunters MD me and I go hard
there's nothing worse than having cotank play a tank that doesnt do damage
And vdh is by far the worst for threat in raid
well vigilante is fun for that no tanking sub 15%
vdh got even worse ST dmg than us no ?
but i mean overall
every dps spec has worse dps than us in execute
I have no idea honestly and what about arms in execute?
arms just got its execute buffed
did u try peeing on the RL
by the exact same amount as us
to assert dominance
and we were already ahead of them
Damn arms on life support
Are we going AJ in M+ now even on Fort weeks?
not a race to world first guild shouldnt had to min-max like that ppl are overgeared for the content at this point ioff the xpac. the hardest part is getting 20 ppl together for the raid that doesnt suck
Well getting class buffs isnt min maxing thats expected
But its dumb that they are in the game
yah but normally theres ppl willing for it, not foreced if you dont want
i mean personally i don't think it would be an issue if they actually were optimising but at a guess i don't actually think they're increasing their chances of a kill all by forcing a reroll on the last boss
sad for you
Like mythic is actually balanced sometimes around have a number of certain specs for example blood furnace
I mean its not really a reroll my monk is as geared as my warrior
kyrian is very good for mc too with spear
