HAH a ret who thinks he's a rogue
Player issue not class
ye thought so
bubble aint the same as give tank aggro son, just takes u off aggro lol
A good ret can still do 20k dps
well yes the amount of 260+ full tier set dps im beating on my 240 shammy is just sad
thats what i thought 😄
i will forever be in debt to the druid who carried my 18 top and saved us all from explosives with 10m of bite dmg
that man was doing gods work
Its a druid job
hows bite dmg related to explosives exactly? 🤔
i think he was the only one killing em what i was roundabout gettin at
feral
:pepehands:
15k
15k what
sir we post
here

Lock was out to lunch
druid really had his stuff together, made the run smoother
lock should be on 15k aswell 
yeah, cuz that shaman died like 5 times for some reasons, its an 18, best i've done so
druid have to brez him at least once i saw
no shame in that, deaths happen in +30 too
nonononoo
+30 key IS death, instant death
they look at you funny and fart and then your dead, no thanks
that does indeed happen if you stand behind the gasbag in theater
otherwise, not so much
@sick sentinel have you consider moving away from that UI
Where you dont have to run a marathon with your eyes
To get info
After 10m in that UI i would prob have to stop because my eyes would start hurting
You everything spread
When info should be close together on the center
Close to mobs
So your eyes dont have to move around
To get info
You say you watch bars for info
Move bars up
To mobs line of sight
You have party frames on narnia
You prob miss 99% of intervenes
By having to move mouse there
whats the rant for wtf?
you wrote an entire essay lol chill bro 🤣
I did
Is this one of these "Read the first letter of each line" things
maybe
will be up later today 
you need to spread out the info further
just like the current ui
then itll work


They mean you're basically spamming instead of just collating your information into a single post or two, instead you're flooding the chat with inane fragmented babbling that really doesn't help.
Flood or block neither is very digestable
No, but if you're gonna try and offer advice at least try and be coherent.
they're clearly trying to help
You can format with Shift+Enter
which is nice
Bruh if you can shotgun out that drivel you can be fucked to actually press the enter key on your phone. It's literally less keybinds that typing it on keyboard.
I find it ironic that you're out here trying to coach on something related to information formatting while the coaching's information formatting is an actual optical migraine and it's going over your head 
What the actual christ is yogiUI? Is it an Elv/Tukui retrofit?
Oh literally yogi's UI.
No Ui is perfect
is there some new quests in the recent patch? 🤔
Except mine 
Yes the lordaron thing
how do i start it?
inb4 Jakey's looks like classic era clutter on a 640x480
yogiUI elvui package would be lit

like doing M+ keys hardmode
Oribos where you initially joined ur covenant
🤔 do i have to do it with a covenant campaign i completed?
im 2/9 on Necro, should i swap back to Kyr to do it?
Idk
They mean in the same general area. For Alliance you get the quest from Genn but he's standing near the entrance of the map room that branches out to the covenant choices.
oh i found it, its just not listed as a "main campaign"
Nah.
It's entirely lore/narrative texture for the setting. I want more quests like this, here's hoping DF isn't afraid to put in a bit more like 'em.
is it a prequest for DF?
theres no change to legendary crafting in s4 is there pls say no
No?
No, it's just there to show progress occurring in Lordaeron with the Forsaken and how they plan on cleaning up the blight.
ilvl more specifically
since when is Tirisfal scorched?
I was actually more stoked at seeing a lot of OG undead from way back like Faranell and Belmont.
Bfa
Sylvanas did a scorched-earth retreat during the Siege of Lordaeron. She was holding back the Alliance line while apothecaries rigged munitions full of the same virulent plague used at the Wrathgate strategically around the ruins. She detonated them as she pulled back to cleave through the Alliance lines and in doing so also killed a fair sum of Horde soldiery. She was cornered in the throne room where she set off the last munition in the hopes of slaying a bulk of the Alliance's leadership at the expense of her capital.
The plague's toxic miasma has been lingering rather persistently since the beginning of BFA and as a result has cut off the Undercity from the rest of the Horde and Forsaken, including large swathes of Tirisfal being caught in the fallout. The quest is effectively a union of the fragment Forsaken leadership doing everything they can to begin neutralizing the plague and reclaim their ancestral home.
Part of it is a B-plot with Calia Menethil in the hopes of integrating herself with the rest of the undead Forsaken by lending her aid despite their distrust.
whats another legendary to craft, i have SR and painbringer 291's now, already have my 291 rep/unity
Signet
have that one too on ring
Then you are good
If you want you can buy me my first 291 Lego
Still playing w 235
only need 75 more cosmic and i can craft another thing
thats sr pain rep signet unity in pic to the right the 291s
why do you need so many legendaries?
had a wow token it was 40k total bill, least those are up to date i have to go arms or some other thing, i think someone said TW for some raid fights?
turns out codex is even worse than previously assumed
LOL
cuz its fixed/bugged since 9.2.5
it actually only reflects/absorbs its tooltip value now
291 Wall, Reprisal, Unity, Reverb, Signet, and maybe TLS for PVP.
i have all of those except TW, which i don't know where i want to craft
but but the top RIO warriors are using it
😳
👉 👈
so did it get slightly better or even worse
its fucking trash
Monkey see monkey do, but what's the deal? I have seen Thwump running one and he gets between 500 to 700 DPS in high keys.
ALOT worse
yes but he also loses damage
oh shit
because he has a stam trinket
its bad on all other tanks now?
i remember day 1 someone on brew was saying their codex was doing a lot less than last patch
pmuch
How much DPS are you actually losing from 80-100 STR
codex does like 1k dps in 9.2
it already caps out at like 2.3k absorb per hit
6-7% on sense's warrior
if you are talking about codex vs a generic trinket that does nothing
6-7% cuz Banner multipliers and so on
which also affects IP size
so youre just in a lose-lose situation
on tanks who actually take frequent dmg
Speaking of trinkets, I managed to fish a scale on my 3rd box but I don't have the valor to 12/12 it now 
yeah im saying on brew
not here
i was the first one in this discord to say codex is bad
dont have to tell me
So vdh is the last one left?
at best
TW on cloak i presume?
maybe i do a raid, i'll save some of that gold sure
I used to get baited by codex and play it, but I'd rather use Aegis if I actually want another defensive trinket now
it'd just be nice to say i have the legendary i need to tank raid boss if i needed to do it
you use reprisal in raids, not the wall
You already own reprisal
You can already say that
we still have another like year or 6 months right? i'm not too worried
even in raid wall isnt good
I've got a max rank Wall; I think I've used it maybe twice.
literally a dead leggo since 9.0.5
i havent upgraded my 210 wall since the first patch
i thought that was TL kekw
its also fucking boring
TL is dead since beta
Thunderlord only exists so that Bliz could claim not to have completely nerfed the BfA playstyle
It was never meant to be played
so funny how the leggo went
It's just an excuse legendary
they asked for a legendary wed want back from legion
we said TL
we got TL
they didnt like its performance in beta, nerf it into the floor so that it becomes useless

If the set bonus multiplied the leggo effect it might be worth considering. But it doesn't.
(I made a 190 to test that as soon as I had set)
tierset outburst doesnt interact with anything
no talent and no legendary gets multiplied by outburst
and the slow from TC actually only gets a +100% and not +200% increase
What
hey guys, i am having trouble dealing with doctor ickus. Boss is not the problem but the packs that we do prior to engaging him. I have trouble pulling that second pack on the right away from the area. Doctor just lands there and we end up dealing with the boss and the mobs. How do you guys pull that pack away from that area?
the guy keeps casting bolts and slime also keeps casting some spell. They just dont move
Interrupting!
what level is the keystone
codex was always shit for us
now its just LITERALLY useless
On Ickus I find it relatively easier to just go left pack and then diagonally across to big guy + plaguepriest (interrupt plaguepriest on cast and drag behind), then last pack with the oozes to get the buff directly on boss, instead of having to get the necrolord to run back to get it.
You can use the last set of rigged borers to detonate the left-hand path and like Grothas said, you can just wade through the slime to the far right-hand platform, deal with that, and then end up axing the slimes and doctor on the nearer right-hand platform so your group can park itself in the red haste buff and get the benefit of the buff from NL fleshcrafting.
Link or screenshot? Cant find it
theres no post about it
we literally just found it through reverse engineering logs
What have they actually done?
And this is as of 9.2.5?
oh sorry i thought they were asking if it was only bad now
but its now 100% confirmed dead trinket for everyone
it was always bad but yeah worse as of this week
(probably still good defensively on rygelon mythic)
for vdh its still only 800 dps
for bdks still 1.4k tho, but maybe the log i checked was pre-fix
somehow
cuz its just fucklaods of ticks to reflect
watch where he jumps and heroic leap into charge him helps alot
If you used codex as pwar
I have some bad news for you
damn why didnt i think of that
i really hate plaguefall lol..
i think plaguefall is probably the key with the biggest diff between a pug and a team
most people who only pug hate it
people who are doing like 24s with a team say it's a joke
theres so many buff in that key to amke tyrranical a joke
i don't like the aesthetic so it sucks
its a valid reason
You say that but Chinese mdi couldn’t time it 
cause they were seeing bread everywhere
you gotta keep in mind
chinese MDI struggles for actual players
theres only 1/2 teams who arent there for the meme
As you probably already know, the Chinese version of WoW is a little different, with skulls and bones (as well as gore) being censored/changed in the game due to cultural reasons. Seeing as Maldraxxus is all skull and bones, how exactly would that work in the Chinese version? As it turns out: wei...
Considering 11k is kinda low. But play whatever you feel like it
If you want to try out codex, use in the nexus during timewalking and hope it procs in the icy crystal wing
rank 14 LFR for all arms warriors

(to note there is 81 logged LFR parses
)
can very easily play arms as kyrian. its pretty much just preference
kyrian arms is good
yeah idk where the nf comment came from. but theirs options i suppose
Where were you when yogi turned to a top tier arms player
I always believed
U ever eat too much and then ur tummy hurts but you still wanna eat more
me rn...
help...
tfw haven't eaten solid food in 6 months 
erga no longer weeb?
What y’all’s second favorite tank
fury warrior
Arms warrior
Bear
never was 
Arms is more fun
arms sux
… yikes…
I don't like buff uptime maintenance DPS classes like Fury
but you play prot warrior 
If I play bear do I gotta do like balance weaving and shit
No
Like I don’t want to do anything except bear
Ok. So it’s not expected to like change forms and dps and shit or wat
is top viscera like crazy bad for us
yes
Viscera is just mid
The only reason to be not-a-bear when you are a Bear is if you need to stealth through a section
poopoo
It’s minor optimization
it decided i wanted one, there's a dk in my guild i brough along i could trade it to him
Even at ranged you can just moonfire away
Ok makes sense
In bear
Fair enough I just an turned off by
but i dunno if he ants to play bdk or if its good for dps dk
Heart of the wild off heal in high soa is also valid
There's very occasionally a point where a DPS form makes sense; like when a boss has a section where they don't need to be tanked and you just do damage
Yeah like that’s what I dont like. Heart of the wild.
It’s for very high keys anyways
Ok noted
Sometimes soa can just straight up kill you
During intermission
So you should heal in high keys
i experienced the glitch where when going through teleporter rings, you suddenly can't control your char and have to log off, then we timed with 12 seconds on clock
The main reason I like Bear though is that they are the easiest and more predictable tank to heal when I am playing a healer
So will I be taking resto over balance then? As bear?
Doesn’t matter too much
Or does it change depending on dungeon I guess?
or like, you can move around and it looks like you are attacking on your screen but no buttons being pressed, and they say ur not moving
Ok
My alt warrior
Lol hell yea
Also putting Guardian spirit on a Bear is basically "welp, don't have to pay any attention to the bear" and you can DPS for a while
Like my friend always heart convoke as boomie on pull to get threat
Yeah damn. Like that sounds good but just feel awkward to me. I guess I’m just not that flexible
Not as enjoyable for me
Then don’t do it
But then I’ll feel I am doing it wrong
Though idk why you wouldn’t just play brew
@jagged pier logs where
real or memeing about potatoe pc
real
yeah pc parts cost more gold now
What logs are you seeing with lower Codex healing?
(small sample size) but 1 person had 2-3x more healing with codex on Ryg in 9.2.5 than in 9.2
Brew has been reporting very low numbers
Codex already sucks balls for prot so yeah
Codex is literally dead trinket
Ryg is the only exception where it does anything
Cuz of the extremely constant dmg intake
Just use dps trinkets 
Yes
Yeah codex on ryg did 8% damage and 8% healing I think
Oh well in heroic it did those numbers and it’s better than anima decanter that I got
I mean, even heroic this log was pretty good for Codex https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/VHnR8X3gkpY2w9T1#fight=20&type=healing&source=20
so not nothing
Well 15k dtps on heroic is a bit much
Aswell as being kyrian 
15k is what tanks have on mythic ryg
Except bdks they're at 35k dtps
But yes
Those levels of dtps is where codex is good on ryg (emphasis on per second)
But since they fixed it now, it's straight up garbage in keys
i wonder if they will change sack magic bombs to not attach bombs to enemy frame lol
What did they change about codex? And I’d like to get a sack or phial but RNG wants me to get blade master armor kits
i had it happen to me in a key, luckily we survived it
That's a 9.2.5 log
yea sack procs on your current target, regardless of combat
just dont target stuff youre not in combat with
or use another trinket
I know
And you didn't hit the ceiling of codex once in this log
But you got extremely close
Idk what's so hard to understand, the dps/hps comes from the extremely frequent dot dmg you take
this will sound really super pepega but do you guys ever mark the relics to kill with basic marker skull x, (normal in game/ macro/ addon or other doesn't really matter here)
Codex now already maxes out its DR when you get hit by ~20-23k and then it stops reducing mroe dmg even if the hit gets larger
Prior to 9.2.5 you could mitigate up to 20k from a single 200k hit, now you'd still only mitiage 2.3k from a 200k hit
That's why codex is now ultra garbage
keep seeming to still get the ocassion random wo or vy seemingly no reasons, i don't mind it but
It doesn't even provide the full 10% DR in heavy hitting situations
it is definitely because dps yolo aoe and assume someone else will target the right relic
Yeah you can mark
And people do it in pugs usually
That comes from dps players going full aoe dps mong instead of focusing the relic down
i think i might just make 2 macros, #1 /target urh (whatever the skull mark command is) #2 same but wo
Sure
Or just have a macro for skull
have the addon, that got fixed, but its just way easier to just click and its done
more buttons probably not great when you're already struggling with the ones you have
0.1 second vs 1 second
would be much better to just learn to target mobs quickly and hit all your stuff with revenge
This
develop long term skills instead of bandaids
And pls take my advice on ui
Since you can just focus on 1 thing at a time
Move everything close
Yogui is bis
its still fucked, wa postioning and bloat, but whatever for now, i was able to do that 15 with it
d
Without going for a marathon with your eyes
beside the chat tall bar is a SB up time tracker, goes down, reaches bottom, no more sb
Unless you can notice that with peripheral vision
Throw it in the middle
Asap
Anything that takes attention away from what's happening in front of your face (character) is bad
if the issue is that you don't know how to move/change that SB weakaura we can get you a better one
because that shit absolutely has to move
SB uptime is the most important thing for you to be constantly checking and it's basically not even on your screen
it's closer to your desk than your character
my ui isn't perfect but you can see literally all relevant information within like 4 inches of my character
does anyone know what that extra health/rage bar in the middle of my screen are actually
i cannot find what's causing them and i do not want them there
personal resource display
ty ty
why is that under "names"
what does a health/rage bar have to do with names
this without the personal resource display would be good
yeah it's gone now
got the triple skada window going for maximum analyst mode (i never use any of them other than dps)
lock your note
skada in 2022??
the blocked hits thing ruins it
No that's the best part
thank god this shit is subjective
I made it specifically to be there
Cuz I like it to show inside HP bar and get that satisfying "yeah I crit block for 100k"


(sry for interrupting UI talk)
Did HC jailer the other week and tried to only have IP up over SB (bit troll sure) whats the opinion about that ;>
And I have reflect dmg done shown in eneemh hp bar
Insanely bad
was a personal challenge tho :c
you have both if you play correctly anyway
That's quite challenging then indeed
yeah that's absolutely trolling
but if you know it was trolling then go for it
yep 100% thought about it befor I did it ofc, was bored after 115 wipes :C
How hard are heroic jailer autos
Damn that’s soft
Well that's still harder than anything else in the game
Mythic jailer is like 240k pre-mit
Iirc
190k pre-mit on heroic
So an unblocked hit does like 40-45k
270k pre-mit mythic
~85k unblocked without literally anything up
Guhhhh it feels super overwhelming to learn how to tank this late in an expansion… I’m tracking all the awesome resources we have listed in the discord but where does one start if I have zero tanking experience…
Start by slapping a dummy 2-4hrs hrs to get your rotation down a bit into muscle memory
Put on a shield and go into 15s
Then start by tracking SB uptime and work around that
But yeah, to learn all around tanking just go straight into whatever keylevel seems challenging to you
better to learn at the end of this expansion than the start of the new one imo
You'll quickly notice what hurts and what doesn't, unless you're overwhelmed by everything
then you go into the new expansion ready to go and fuckin blast
and yeah literally it sounds boring but just go hit a dummy
for like twice as long as you think you need to
But getting the rotation down and keeping track of your SB uptime is the absolute basics
learn to react quickly to SS procs and when you can dump rage
the only way you're gonna get tanking experience is by going and getting the shit beat out of you
Ok thanks everyone, I’ll give it a go
lol
he had your best interests at heart
mini map position 😖
you got your pc back?
makes sense
Oh
oh no
i thought that brown box at the top right was the minimap for a second
that picture offends me
na thats streets WA
I hate having my Quest log going into details
So Minimap goes to left side
Thats empty
Legit shiftclick all quests
Got used to Minimap on left
Sorry ( not sorry)
Me right you all wrong

I think the arrow weakaura for muezala disqualifies you from any debate 
Use eyes 
All shits n giggles aside
Naowh weakauras are good
actually you left

hey guys, got a first sigil drop today. am I correct to assume its probably better than my current chains of domination?
all WA's activated, "test" mode
You serious need to move them
eurk at bottom like that you must not see them
Since you are using the utility thing from the luxthos aura
Please just use the main thing too
And hide Bars or something
Nameplates can still go up
why seeing red/outburst is over your hp bar
wheres the rage bar
On the Unit frame
was meant to be a "don't over/under rage thing"
so damn small
doesn't work clearly
i can solve alot of problems if i make 3 macros, 2 i said above for urh/wo, 1 for intervene mouse over shift mod focus or vice versa targeting
You dont need bandaid
but sure, i'll look into ui
Fixing own UI is also kinda fun 
There’s a pretty good chance you’ll make some weak auras or macros and end up never using them. Especially for the stuff you’re describing
cuz, i can't get rid of the gryphons without like 4 seperate addons otherwise
that's why, i just would want to hide them base ui, i believe i heard thats coming
So let's boil down
thats ELvUI using sense profile moded and wa, cause i like what he did
ive cut the view
is there even a big difference between tuki and elv, i thought i heard they are the same thing, or well, if you go to evlui . com it shows tuk ui forums and such often
i'm simply acclomated to tukui now is all it is
Or just go bartender4
With plater and default unitframes
And a few weakauras
You dont need to play in a spaceship
i'll wait on the blizzard default ui changes borrow from ff14 (i don't play that weeb trash shit)
image was cut for some reason
its not hard
i was shit at that first
start it bit by bit and improve when you feel something aint right
ignore conduits im kyr for fury rn
Yogi will literally post somthing, get valuable feedback, and respond somthin like “i need x macro” “i need y weak aura” etc. its so troll its admirable
^
it's kind of incredible
i think the first time we told him to move that SB weakaura was like 3 months ago
no it was because i also had IP bar
im pretty sure
and you said get rid of it
i did
you do you man it's just weird when you ask for help, get it, and then like weeks later you ask for help again and haven't implemented any of the help offered last time and we just give you the same feedback
It was still on a weird place
You want stuff when mobs are
So you dont lose time
Looking for said info
Especially if your entire tankiness resolves around it
you could get something like this
where you see everything up close
rather than spread across ur screen
yogi you do pvp ?
never
@shut summit got a nice WA but its still updated with BFA trinket !! 😛
anyway it all gonna be ignored :/
i mean it doesnt break the weakaura
hey guys i have a question which is the best race for warrior ?
For Prot is probably a Dorf of some sort due to the cleanse
hello everyone, i have a question about secondary stats for prot warriors.
Which stats are the most valuable, and what is the stat cap for thoses stats ?
Haste by far the most valuable, though it's outwieghed by Strength
vulpera, but it's super minimal so just pick whatever you think looks coolest
^^^ For Horde, yeah, Vulpera will generally add up to the most
Appearance though is the real bis race
str>>>haste (up to 40 % unbuffed)>>vers=>crit>mastery
(dont stress over vers)
its a nice benefit not a requirement
play makes up most mitigation, not ur vers stat
thanks, is 40% not to much ? i mean this is a lot of investment, i feel like having 20% vers is really valuable too
40 % is where the 20 % stat tax comes in so you start thinking about other stats, and dont go for any specific % vers
im doing 26/27s with 4 % vers for perspective
literally doesnt matter
.
that mean by having 40% haste u mitigate dmg by using a lot of shield block and ignore pain ?
BTW i'm asking for a raiding spec
prot currently works on a feedback loop of gaining and spending rage
with more haste you accelerate that loop
More CDs, more outburst, more uptime, which means more rage which means more CDs and so on in an infinite loop
ok , thank u 🙂
no actually the name is World of Warcraft: Shadowlands 🤓
macros are done
Now fix UI
your most important buttons are still the furthest from your character
but it's a start
i would really recommend putting combat abilities right under your character in the top row
you put shield slam on the easiest to press button
why wouldn't you also make it the easiest to see
Swap top and bottom row
yeah
is this the party frame? o.O
enough of this anti-yogi propaganda. forming up the yogi defense squad
random garbage totem bar i think it calls it i just ignore it
why not... turn it off
His motives are beyond mortal comprehension
answering the call
💪

ha you almost fooled me into thinking prot warrior is real

Wow, it's more evenly distributed than I thought... Except for pwar 😿
Yeah if you completely ignore prot warrior exists tank distribution is pretty good
just proves wow players have bad taste
just proves that tier lists made by ppl that dont play the specs create an impact
on what ppl play
If yiu go to 25+ it's not at all balanced all of a sudden
Or their reasons
" vdh cant tank without 2 defensives"
"Bear is b tier"
Those tier list are just memes
And noob traps
That discords have to deal with for 2 months
2 months

People at least stopped asking if vdh is viable for keys because they saw it needing 2 defensives
How can those 2 memes so wrong about tier lists
And still doing them
one of them meme'd prot during an mdi even tho there teams was winning
and saying things like 'this is why you dont bring a prot warrior'
i mean the warrior was playing completely incorrectly
but their team still won
but thats bad apprently
There are tier list and tier lists
then there's you
Kohl
i mean tier lists can be good if theyre made by competent people
keep your mouth shut when adressing me jaja boi

Ayaya?

tier lists also unintentionally make the gap between specs look bigger than they actually are, which is where a lot of misinformation may come from
Also they cant Account for meta Shifts
Yumi had sub rogue in S tier for keys this season
Now you dont see any




Thats dif
Sub was S tier til Blizzard nerfed/buffes stuff
Saying vdh needs two defensives. Pwar cant take physical sustain smg
Is just being ignorant
Phys dam as in bleed or melees?
I have no idea what those 2 mean
Ok so
Bleeds are physical damage
And Mobs white swings also are
And the guy claimed we cant take physical sustained damage
Which of the 2 are they reffering to
i dont remember how to check what outbursts is cast on
how to see the cast sequences

how do in logs
damage done, then click the little outburst icon
go to events
damage done then choose say SS or TC
then top right is events
instead of table
then u just click the little outburst icon
and u can see what u used while u had outburst
I've new to prot and struggling with Booming Voice, is Best Served Cold fine?
Which tank does the most aoe damage? Is it still Prot?
I only have Kyrian renown 
well, its either blood dk, prot pala, prot warrior, druid or monk
or dh
depends a lot, tbh
depends on pull size
how long adds live
Yeah I'm on about like a pack of 10 mobs
go bsc if youre not necro but go get necro renown 
otherwise its a bit int and thats sussy
again, depends if blood dk has the jailer weapon
overall, I would say, maybe, dk... maybe...
although prot warrior is a pumper
Is Crackling Lightning that good? Bounding Strides seems like it would go well with Reprisal, but most of the ppl I'm seeing on RIO are running Lightning
it's personal pref
Vdh
Has been all of SL
Bdk does really good aoe dps aswell, but on 10 targets vdh does defo more
Unless it's vs a venthyr guardian druid inside CDs ofc, then nobody can beat them
But overall its vdh I'd say
What do you guys think about the talent tree revamps in dragonflight? Good, bad idea?
insanely good idea
if you listened to the state of prot podcasts from 9.1 and 9.2 you can see ive asked for talent tree revamps all of SL
I didnt cus I took a break between those patches
What are you hoping is coming back + talent points?
What kind of talents are you hoping is going to be in the trees
basically the artifact abilities+ traits
some azerite traits like CR/Bom/deafening crash
some of the legendaries we got will be there aswell
NOT reprisal but instead meaningful ways to get good SB uptime
Unpopular opinion but I don’t like non-permanent character skill customisation .
It makes no sense from a RPG point of vue to change talents so often, and it’s impossible to balance them as history has shown.
And of course permanent choices are horrible in our BiS-math-game.
So I would prefer if each class was set in stone.
I know this talent will prob never be implemented again but sword and board would be a nice return and devastate actually does smth aka sunder armor or whatever
id kinda want that we get more rage from spells if they crit
like arms' AA
or just bring back RFDT
critical block should always trigger SS empower or cd reset, have some effect tied to it rather than oh, you blocked more
or like, talent: all normal warrior attacks have chance to daze or slow or stun briefly (wc3 mountain king)
no, rage from damage taken
which means, you got a huge amount of rage from taking alot of dmg
if you lost like 80% HP in 1 hit, youd get like 80 rage or smth instantly
that was scrapped from legion to bfa
Lets revamp that talent and remove the dodge and parry to damage taken, win win for us
What a shame
Lets hope and pray
I am hoping that Dragon Charge becomes a PvE talent (c'mon, Dragon themed expansion, give us that), and that the Shrieking Flagon Anima Power also makes the cut. We really need some mob displacement abilities IMO.
Hehe i love using that in rbgs, just plowing people out of the map in Eye of the storm
Revamping charge with that? Hahaha

So you want dead talent tree
As its right now for most specs
Where at most you have like 2-3 choices
Instead of something way better
I hope BoM comes back
🙂
I hope all tanks get Bear treatment and not BDK treatment.
But I already know that Warrior and VDH might be in trouble.

Vdh shouldnt have problems
If Blizzard isnt scared of bringing Legion artifact stuff back
VDH is a coin flip should be getting interesting stuff simply because like Bear it’s pretty bear bones right now.
Vdh has prob the most to gain from it
Yep
If darkness chaos nova are in class tree
Sadly we were discussing it matters more the design of your tree than what’s on your tree
Thats already pretty good
Darkness on the class side would be huge
And Legion/bfa had interesting traits
To make a good spec tree
And since bdk got mini 4p
Vdh could get some kind of mini 4p also
That’d be pog
Yeah I got VDH in the same bucket as Bear. Like you said, a lot more to gain.
pls be spear 
shockwave will prolly be class tree aswell
same as stormbolt
sure, but warri overall should get it
Like VDH is very bear bones
So there’s more chances of new things popping up.
Like with the Guardian tree.
well yeah
BDK’s tree is almost entirely current stuff. With the exception of exploding bone shield.
I don't think we will see many new-new things. I would enjoy the return of some of the (good) Azerite powers
cuz bdk doesnt really have anything theyre missing from Legion/BFA are they?
The problem with BDK is it’s going from it’s current state to choosing 3/4 of its current state.
Whereas, yeah I could see Warrior getting some cool stuff from past iterations. (Azerite, Artifact tree stuff, etc.)
I think Warrior is actually safe with the new talent trees, thinking about it.
noob

5sec SR, Banner/Bom, Azerite stuff, Dragon Scales, Bigger Rage cap, Unnerving, Nelth fury
I’m worried about Monk because their kit is pretty full right now, so chances are they’ll end up like BDK and just choosing 3/4 of their current kit.
We will have something busted in 10.0 
me no push
me only meme
sense is working on it tho


if things go as they are scyther might snipe that spot actually tho 
dude jumped into 25s with 250 ilvl
scyther on dh still?
no
oh?
epic
@strong forum current talent combo that you hope is possible in DF but isn’t currently because they’re on the same row?
itf and ravager 🥺
i just want AM to not be a choice
it should be a pick
not a choice
i dont want to decide between block or am
thats absolute garbage
any takes blood spattered vs aegis in keys? 27 ish lvl
aegis better
i'd love to have banners and some legion stuff again
ya banner and outburst should stay
big fun
take away the group buff
just gib rage gen
if outburst is gonna stay i'd like to see it be a bit more developed
so pressing TC isn't so bad
i think currently prot is like pretty close to perfect if they tweak TC a bit so it's less sad to press
and put the extra block somewhere other than reprisal
reprisal makes alot of sense, you need the SB as you go into battle for SS attack and not die to melee
all i hope is that in dragonflight we don't have to go back to unstoppable force
reprisal is fine but i'm not playing with it for 3 years straight
shit's annoying
unless you have lag or very very slow hands you already have SB for the first melees that hit you anyway
Hope they remove reprisal for sure and also have an alternative non haste build that could be just as good as high apm carpal tunnel build
also like erga said
some variation of the artifact ability
that you play like 10% of the time for very specific situations
would be nice
Is 40% haste too much? I'm doing like 19 keys and dying too often, and my healer is suggesting swapping out some haste for vers to smooth out my damage intake; I'm not sure if that's right.
it's not right
never listen to your healer
40% haste unbuffed is the MAXIMUM that you want though
is that 40% unbuffed or with ITF stacks
Unbuffed
It's kind of a lot
yeah i mean that's the maximum you want
we normally say go haste until 40% unbuffed then other stuff
because after 40% you get fucked by diminishing returns
but if you're dying in 19s it's nothing to do with your stats or gear
either you, your dps, or your healer, or all of you, are doing stuff wrong
do you have a log of a key where you died? much easier to make observations in that case
Specifically what key as well
Make sure your using shield block correctly
