Without a weapon they couldn't heal
I'm actually excited for wrath classic to pvp like that again.
i dont wanna ruin my nostalgia
tbc and wrath were great memories, and thats what theyll stay
Protection PvP... 2pc t10 Sslam crits... and some Damage Shield Fun...
Tracks list:
Nightwish - Nymphomaniac Fantasia
Fluke - Absurd
The Beat Kicks - Dougal & Gammer Remix
5:10

Part of me feels that way but I do want to prot warrior stance dance again. Do pvp as prot like that again.
Taith a protection warrior doing some intense PvP
Taith was amazing
i mean, drowning pool. NF warrior with culling of stratholme shield
can't get more nostalgic than this
Yeah
unfortunately the best video got deleted
there was a 19k shield slam crit on a rog
i even remember the title, but can't find it anyway
with rob zombie in the background
he had strenght of the taunka from dbw, back when you could charge to the graveyard of warsong gulch 
It might be out there somewhere but finding it would be the problem.
no idea when or where (to as in server) but im gunna buy a server transfer and probably whenever season 4 or 10.0 launches go to alliance
Can just level a new alliance character it doesn’t take long
Can just spam dungeons
i spent all of BFA and all of SL playing this character, can't abandon him
What race you goin
mostl likely going to rogue's server
Prob dwarf?
dwarf, either, i know i really shouldn't do it, but i can get a free name change out of the deal if i make a lvl 1 same name 🙂
Ya
"ah someone took your name, you have to change it" that was my plan...
yes u can

server transfer give your free name change anyway
Anyone having issues keeping banner up this week with the bolter affix and think maybe kyrian better this week?
No
bolstering has nothing to do with banner uptime
well it might do if u pull far to much then have to kite
but thats like pulling 20 mobs
well in that case necro is even better cuz kyrian just makes you squishier
also true
Is does abit due to dropping combat frequently to not bolstering the next pak
thats like 0.1sec
that shouldnt be an issue at all
just dont leave before the pack is dead
Same time I last in bed
One time empowering tc is good
Outburst tc and go next pack
While your dps finished it off
What was the overall % uptime of banner in previous weeks @regal yacht
I usually run 20-40% uptime in my keys. That +6 I was finally able to do I was at 32%
That was over course of roughly two hours
That's awfully low.
Well I was invited to do a +8 a week from this Thursday with the same group… so they seemed to like me pretty well
That doesn't mean you played your class well.
I played well. So well, in fact, they invited me to the +8.
You THINK you played well.
I played well for me
He is a troll
Exactly.
Yes exactly
I am here to get better obviously though
I realize “objectively” my numbers don’t look amazing. On paper this game is a whole other ballgame vs reality
Like “on paper” people say 100% banner uptime is possible. In reality, most getting 20-40% like me
I worked really hard just to get 32%. We didn’t time the key either. Missed it by 1 hour 34 minutes
Do not ridicule my play please
I am working to get better
Like I said- I will be doing the +8 a week from Thursday. Hoping I will do better 🤞
Is this some quality content?
Yeah damn… you’re right. Guess I will have to work my way back up again
I didn’t realize keys disappear
Ok
Will see where we stand I guess
Like I said I was invited by a group, they seem to be a guild
So actual question, not bait, new to prot warrior and working on it. Is there a best way to extend banner? Like what should i be doing when its up etc. May be a dumb question, but it is what it is
Not dumb question at all. I also would like to know the answer.
Im sure you would
Sensing a tone there.. I will just move on though
Lmao
the answer is last stand's conduit
spam revenge, use IP to dump rage if you would overcap, spam SS for rage.
that increases rage gen massively
The best answer I have seen is “press your buttons”
Use LS as a dps cd for the rage gen
So it legit is just spam your fuckin buttons, got it
Don't waste outburst procs
Yeah basically
pwar is like 80 cpm if done well
80 at least
so press a lot of buttons
120 is when things get really interesting
Alright. I've been seeing that thrown around, wasn't sure how serious it was lmao
thanks lmfao
It’s dead serious
Are people pulling the entire POST room in Streets during this week?
Dont you need to interrupt the guys opening the cages?
I pull one pack at a time
ive seen people do the entire right into left in 2
In pug I find one pack at a time is best
(this is a reference to me missing cap totems)
@ionic fern
I thought you had to stop the cages or the perma stun chickens run loose
So you know you were being trolled
That was on my main prot cro
Apb drop the fucking act
I have a dwarf alt now
Everyone here knows you are a troll
if ur gna troll try be funny
I honestly didn’t even know I could pull more than one pack at a time until roughly 3 months ago
And I’ve been playing since closed beta
Might as well pull the entire room
Except boss
I just didnt wanna pull too much since its bolstering
Either do whole room or go one pack at a time. No half measures
i'd pull the 2 packs near the entrance out of the room
Can invis to them and then pull and run out
so it doesnt matter if chickens go off or not
then chain last pack with boss or something
Do chickens not follow outside?
They do
or are they not in combat when released
ah okay
Are you playing with a friend group or pug
If pug just go one pack at a time in my opinion
Ye I pug all my groups but people pull the 2nd pack for me
Im a massive pussy so not used to pulling big groups
I pull one pack at a time and if someone pulls that’s not me I exit the instance at that time and place.
If pulling both groups is the standard then I will adapt but hard to figure out what the standard is when I never see other tanks and their pulls
nah dont go by "the standard"
just keep pushing yourself
when 1 pack becomes too easy, try adding another etc
I find that that works for friend groups that play together. In pugs its like a new experience every time
I dont know how good someone is so I wanna play safe but also do standard pulls
i mean youre the tank so you decide what gets pulled
and if someone ninjas (on purpose), let them die
What about the big guy thats before the last boss? Is he pulled alone or can you pull stuff onto him
Yes route is very important you always want to be thinking at least one pull ahead
ye
I tried pulling the big guy and one guy thats on the way to POST and we wiped
Or just skip entirely
it becomes pretty toxic for ranged if you pull stuff on him
since theyll charge to them and interrupt
You can skip that mini boss if you really want even
so solo always imo
He does some charge and people get knocked into more stuff
yeh
How can you skip him?
it's kinda sketchy so i dont recommend skipping in pugs
yeee dont think I would wanna try that in a pug
You just mind soothe it
Thought there would be some fool proof way
It just feels bad only pulling one thing in m+
Yeah just tank that mini boss against the jutting out wall things
Feels like we are going slow
just for good measure, you spam click the tp console while jumping over this wall
I like mini bosses
narz / streets / duel wing
Season 4 getting all dungeons getting a mini boss
The new dreadlord mini boss
It’s optional
duel wing big shit
i might be alone in this but i kinda like that m+ isnt just all mindless aoe anymore
Do people pull mini bosses with other trash in duel wing?
id prefer to but kinda cant
^i do that after arbalast is dead
cause he fucks
otherwise you can do double miniboss for time save depending which 2 you get
shield one zzz
yeh
Do u guys think they will buff warr next season ?
just with wo i think
dont really need a buff tbh
so doubtful
arent warrs behind monk dh and dk ?
I'm of the belief that we actually need a slight 5% nerf on our Execute dam but that's literally just me
pog
The only thing I would want for warrior is heroic throw silence
Yeah but we're still good. For all the content that most people are pushing, up to +29, we're solid tanks. It's not like S2 where we were basically crawling on hands and knees to survive in certain fort dungeons above +25
Its sickening to just watch a guy range cast on you
in what?
and just because you aren't first
doesn't mean you need buffs lol
I was curious
thats exactly what it means 🙂
buff dps warrior
Actualy prot warr is only tank i never played in shadowlands , so not real exp
It should be noted that BDK and BrM are significantly easier than prot warr, and the best BDK/BrM will push higher than the best prot, but once again -- top of the line issue
Have u seen bdk dragonblight tallents ? Same build , but with vampiric blood uptime and vampiric blood collect the healing and explode for dps again bdk meta ?
(isn't that a question for bdk discord)
Yeah I don't think anyone here objects to the fact that BDK should be nerfed
they lose the 40% str
We are not getting a buff per se, but like other classes we will be able to acquire 2-3 legendary level skills all at the same time. So play style will be changing. The power level of all classes is being raised
apb has been here longer than you and contributed advice and input before; why are you bagging on him? For one shitpost?
So its time to make tank warr now
Sir- I have been banned, I have crossed over the other side and I have witnessed darkness first hand. I vowed that day to make. Amends and I am working hard on that goal.
I do not shit post
one shitpost and a million baits probably
month
I do post some opinions many do not agree with that is true
I may not agree with you cro- but I will give my life for your right to say it.
I haven't been paying attention, but since when is bad advice/bad takes, as long as they aren't offensive or antagonistic, not allowed?
This is a place for discourse, right?
I sometimes get things wrong. I am human
Nah u good
extending the braindead gun control debate was maybe a step too far
he words his opinions as facts, and that baits ppl i dont think it's longer than that tbh
HAVE I NOT paid the price
I was BANNED DAMN YOU
How long must I live with this shame
HOW LONG I SAY
sad u came back

we're just discoursing 🙂
Yo suggest me a good race for horde warrior or i must go dwarf ? :X
This one hurt most of all
the one you think looks cool
Vulpera for sure
Dwarf is pretty fucking nice for the racial, won't lie
Doesn't matter south of a 20 but if you're genuinely pushing, it's amazing to have Stoneform
south of like 27-28 tbh
Gnome escape artist is pretty op
Hightmauntain charge , versa and dmg red is bad ? Cus of no dmg aspect
Ya I like gnome a lot and 1% haste is nice
its good but vulp is better
Nah, it's nice having dwarf racial for necrotic and for magic debuffs and all that as a tank from like, 24 and up
Vulpera also has a 40yd pull which I find very underrated. Best of all you are a cute fox that does little flips and has a tail
It's kind of asinine to say it's not huge
sure, still isnt gonna be the deciding factor if you time a key or not
just play correctly idk

just saying you made it sounds like stoneform was mandatory when you can prob time 30s a gnome or some shit
nelf best race, especially with the new red eyes
change yep
Ya I mean I won’t lie I’m tempted to roll a night elf
Best of all you get
Shadowmeld
But dwarf racials too powerful. It’s become the case if you don’t roll dwarf you are just playing the game wrong
stranger things 4 intro
@sick sentineli might buy a change for DF idk 
i dunno if or when im continuing that, we'll have to see i guess
racials don't matter
doesn't matter what you pick
you look at them
and pick whatever looks better
@waxen orbit you were saying
If someone can't tell that he's shitposting I don't know what to say man
he shouldn't be
and people might take it serious
because they dont come here everyday
I’m not shitposting. I believe it matters arguably more than anything when creating a toon
i'll buy DF day one
You guys act like picking the race you enjoy to view and interact with the most is unimportant or something
where did we say that
It’s perhaps the most important other than the class itself
race and class 2 most important decisions in all of wow
Here you said it dont matter
It matters a lot
it does not
For power too
Looks and power
The whole package
Yeah I’m dumb for believing the race you pick is important LOL
yikes
context
it's okay, im not going to run away or cower in fear because there is some warriors popping intimidating shout here rn lol
i popped my beserk long time ago, no fear
They all come as a package deal
<@&257983573498265600> can we end this endless trolling of apb?
I’m not trolling dude
You either are the race or not
Yes or no. Binary situation
Right
So you cannot separate the power and looks
It’s one in the same
It is a factor for sure
Because that’s part of the race
Race is most important after class when making a hero
It’s a HUGE deal
can you elaborate?
dont make him elaborate
Most generally pick the class they want to play first when rolling a new char
you can't make a human druid for example
Right
so you HAVE to roll a race that is compatible, not a huge problem for warrior
are you trying to say i cant play rogue tank
you mean demon hunter?
Always thought the most important was the player 🤔

Would you guys play wow if you couldnt pick a race for your character
Serious question
no
depends on the default
This is for something I am working on
Why was i pinged
was anti human until i made -5 int warrior
I didn’t even do nothin
the one in fury was free nitro

or that yogi guy
Lol wtf
Just because you don’t agree with someone doesn’t mean you just ban them dude
So what
Sometimes I get things wrong
I’m not human
Oops
sometimes - always
I’m only human ..z*
I'm only a troll
Dude if I came in here and said the sky was blue I would get argued with
This is what I am dealing with
I’m trying to explain that to you
quality content
Ok I will say 1 true thing
I am not a troll.
Everything here is words dude
We are literally in a chat room
That’s true
i always lie
See your world through his eyes
scoop out eyeballs and eat them angle

I guess I will hit the old dusty trail

round 2 give it up for round 2
i give him about 15 minutes
thats about how long i lasted in the great 268 shoulders mald out of this last tuesday

i mute all servers all whispers
yknow the yellows are cool
shoot the door key slot open first to open the door and walk in guns drawn loaded
what
thats my approach to joining new discords
2 minutes
upon entering i immeadiately without any hesitation or regrets mute the server and all whispers
if someone wants to talk to/about me they can do it together in whispers or directly to me in public setting
scammers and other degenerate types yes

does this come back
how good is the dos 2h sword for arms/fury?
vers mastery idk about that
its fine
sim
Anyone make a list yet all season 4 expected best items
i have it at 246 so, if i ran keys i could valor the fuck out of it
yeah
make ur delete haste essay
i dunno if there is another 2h weapon i should really go after first tho like i was after dessia hardcore 2 weeks ago
just use any
Wish shield were available to buy with the token
1 TOP is fucking free AF and 2 its a 2 hand decapitator axe, fuck yeah
The most important thing is ilvl. Everything beyond that is just Sim stats
Really hope 1h fury is good in df
Depends on borrowed power
i feel personally attacked by this... totally not because i grinded all week for a shield 👀
U get it
though to be fair, 229 was not exactly something i wanted to hold onto for long for a shield
do you need a shield or smth yogi?
278 shield yes
https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/character/us/area-52/Tankian i don't have 278 bracers either, unless thats supposed to be gloves, i crafted gloves
basically anything but a weapon ring or legs
yeah, seems to be a popular one
Both of us in the top 100 prot warriors on our server. We are powerful
https://raider.io/characters/us/area-52/Òr
Hello fellow A52 warriors
good name
Anyone know if the next season (aug ??) will come with increased ILvl in gear? Meaning we have to refarm our items in M+ and the rotating raids
Yes s4 come with an ilvl increase
thx
when do you transfer to the superior region*
I mean I have a level 60 paladin on EU
3k io prot warrior and he's top 12 
I was 5 for awhile but I haven’t done keys on my war in awhile
apparently only some 541 pwars in the world have a score of 3k or more
I'm 39th prot on my realm with 539 score 
Oh wow hello fellow top 15 area 52 prot warr
run a +15 and you'll be top 10
We are powerful
Are there any good guides for playing prot in m+
Kind of sad. I'm nothing special. 2700io and top 100 prot warrior on my server
https://raider.io/characters/us/area-52/Jorag
https://raider.io/characters/us/area-52/Tankian 2600 score and 82nd place wait wtf lol, same server you have higher io but im higher ranked
I don't raid mythic. Not sure if that factors into it. Also, only 2 heroic boss kills I have are Jailer and Guardian
And I was lucky enough to get the Jailers 2H weapon from my vault the reset after I got AOTC

Yessir
#29 world and I been slacking half the patch
feelsbadman
Could've gone top 10 if I got my shit together
Also slumming on Area 52
Pretty sure I'm one of 11 prot warriors this season to time a 27 halls, and on the hardest affixes for it too
Love to see it
Andy did a 27 mists on his pwar today. Has 89% banner uptime and did 13.8k. Linked him your screenshots from earlier to show him what he could be doing 
Ay ay don't disrespect Andy
Lol I’m one of his mods
I'm just a washed up prot main for 11 years kekw
Nvm go off
But yeah he thought you were super impressive
He had fun too so hopefully he plays more pwar 
He also died to intervene like 10 times the next key 
you love to see it
focus target macro intervene the melee or range? curious your guys opinions on this, i can see good reasons to have both as focus
yeah i have the macro for it to be charge+intervene single key, but then i'm putting intervene (focus) on q and charge on e
which is your focus getting involved for intervene
normally a melee focus targeted, but it seems to work both ways, melee works cuz you don't move and then just can continue attack, on mage makes sense to get out of shit, or do a charge
What would be the best legendary to spam +15 keys or less. I will also be doing this for beginning of season 4. Seismic or Reprisal?
Seismic for memes
Reprisal to git gud
reprisal probably makes smoother runs
Would you say reprisal will be better for beginning of season 4 due to the survivability benefit?
Reprisal is one of not the best leggos in SL
For some people, a 15 is like a 30
So idk
Reprisal would be better as people either don't use their utilities or just don't do enough dps
Wouldn't seismic be better if there is lack of damage? But I guess if teammates miss kicks DPs won't matter.
Right, you can only do so much damage and use your CDs, if things are not being kicked or there's not enough dps and you blow your CDs in a bad order you might end up dying
no reason to go below 15
if ur the one killing shit that group is doomed
yes do huge dam
but if ur top thats not gna be timed 90% of the time
This is my second week on my bdk, just started gearing it last week and already doing 22s at 271. If you have a good understanding of the dungeons and packs by packs and timing, you can use whatever to blow your 15s with any tank
Lots of 15 keys now I'm 3rd on the DPS; there's almost always a carry in 15s now
Thanks, just trying to figure out the best way to grind through mythics for the start of season 4. I haven't decided what ilvl I will stop this seasons since I am starting to gear my warrior.
stop at like 275
O wow, this helps answer my question .
If something scares you in a pack, just stun and leap out of you feel like dying
Poorly worded, I mean, if you think you will die
Is necro the still the best for mythic+? (4pc)
yes
Necro is the best for raid too
Did you spam low dungeons for valor or rush to +15 then spam for valor?
i prefer 15s
Yup, once you feel content with the amount of valor you have, move to 12s then to 14s for gear drop
15s are usually carries but 14s and 16s usually have people looking to push
what is the sweet spot for farming gear? 4s?
15+ since it drops at 262
well people dont just let pugs in @252i
no point going 15
Did you hold lower ilvl tier pieces then upgrade with valor?
Never
i usually leach a 15 from friends to start an alt
for like a week or 2
Ilvl then shield then stats
So I shouldn't bother using my valor on my 252 tier pieces?
I wouldn't
I am only 3/4 tier set.
Unless you have an ungodly amount of free time and can farm like 20k valor per week
ilvl on tier doesnt really matter for a while
ilvl on tier and leggos doesn't really matter, the effect they bring is stronger
If you can get it and it's only one piece go for it
Thanks, I will just hold out for higher I'll gear then spend valor. I am only 254ish I'll as prot(crappy greens)
if ur group is good (guildies) thats enough for a 15
Since it's an alt and you probably don't raid, your chest should be a leggo
What is your opinion on the chest piece from Return of Karazhan? The one that buffs the trinket.
I don't raid so I'll probably have my leggo crafted on chest either way
you'd have to craft unity in not set slots then
worth giving up some haste budget for a socket ring?
No
Thanks, this helped a lot.
assume i will put a haste ench on #1 ofc
Still a no
I'm not right person to ask but you'd lose 4 set with this chest and unity helm say
🙏
That is my concern, because I do plan to main fury, but I want to gear up as prot. I will just hold on this thought once there is some live testing.
Chest unity, leggos boots, rest tier
You want helm unity
It's a guaranteed socket
And has the same stat distribution as chest.
It's chest + socket.
Plus I think there's a 283 chest in deep M There isn't. Still better tho
Holy shit at the amount of prot warrs from area 52
We got a lot
Get ready for alpha starting tomorrow
"it's too late to change anything" 
I want to believe they'll do right by us and actually listen for once
but history has taught me something else
how do you know?
Yeah give erga the copium rank
I know that's a lie because it'd imply Kotic even gives a shit
it's gonna be unbearable doomerposting in here no matter what happens huh
always was

not the absolute best tank but we're definitely sleeper strong
extremely fast paced spec with lots of mobility and damage, only lacking a bit in the utility department

Still new to tanking, but tanked my first 17 (++2), i really don't understand how people don't die to those 27's
some mobs hit so fucking hard 😂
its insane
sounds like u didnt have sb up if u think mobs in a 17 hit hard.
probably
someone mightve logged it
imma check
mmh its in my logs
not sure how to properly inspect it like raid logs tho
ah, comes from leaderboard, doesn't have log
can't inspect
sadge
I just got SL on my warrior. Bit nervous to q for basic normal. I don't know SL dungeon well enough. I didn't like dungeons this expansion.
Same
But normal dungeons shouldn't prove to be anything other than a nice walkthrough
yeah if there's any place to actually learn the dungeons it's in normal
does anyone know how to get additional ticks on the first pull in sd into the lantern?
ive seen a tank do it yesterday but he kept his secret for himself
you have to engage the third pack (assuming you dont pull that) and then drop combat with them again
that will cause 2 extra ticks to join the first pull giving you 10 stacks
so you need a hunter/rogue to do it for you
nah cba playing the mistdancer worst count in the dungeon
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
the problem is that it is very bad count croma
very inefficient count
with regard to its hp pool
i know how to dodge a frontal dont worry
but u are not omniscient
the mobs are fine but its a shit pack to dps so i prefer skipping it
no all i need is 10 stacks
then im out there
the pack in general is just super bad for all dps because on high keys u cannot soak traps as tank if u arent dh/dk or wanna pop too big defensives for it
plus a onshot frontal
probably the worst frontal in the game atm
chains also blow
laughs in paladin

You know what prio dmg is
i legit dont understand what u are trying to tell me
apart from u are so great u can dodge a frontal
That the pack isnt as bad as you make it to be
Especially considering you should have like 6 stacks for it
there are plenty of easier mobs which i prefer to play
at least sds frontal shows
and those mobs even give better count
no only chamber sentinels have same count
all other mobs are 4 count iirc
and probably wardens
Scribes are worst than mistdancer
i said cannot
seriously dont know what u want from me
if u want to piss me off u already did
Popcorn?
but i cba talking anymore to a wall
Thats how you are supposed to tank mistdancer

And voila free count and extended buff
My dudes, I'm struggling with Banner uptime. I'm also admittedly really bad digging into logs. I'm going to post a log of a failed +20 PF I did last night, and would greatly appreciate some kind soul to tell me what to do better.
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/3NL8A72VWbQmjpgB/#fight=last&type=summary&source=2
well your casts are really
like SS alone is 7-8 CPM lower than it should be
so your missing a tone of rage
your also wasting a lot of the rage u generate
As in overcapping?
yes
so none of that rage is going into anything
your also using outburst on TC far more than SS
which is a huge no no
your missing a tone rage due to that as well
Is there a reason to use SS on Outburst, even while tanking a pack, other than the rage generation that SS gives?
it does more damage
Sure, it deals like 45K+ on a crit to a single target. But wouldn't TC actually help with threat more? Especially if it's like the first 1-2 seconds into a pull? Or is the Revenge spam enough for that?
also due to the extra rage
thats more avatars
more AM cooldown
etc etc
u can use TC at the start of a pull
I know the numbers vary, but for a typical +15 run, what's you overall damage? I know for my runs, 15-18, I go about 8k on avg. Is that about typical for the rest of you?
but you arent only doing that
thats mega low
thats last season numbers
That's good to know. Is it at least like 10k?
more
12-15k
dependant on dungeon
Below 10 you have probably to check you rotation, 12/13 is good, and 15 and above is great 👍
Do you all play with Ravager talent, then?
outbursted TC does the same damage as a busted SS + revenge on 4 or 5 targets but it gens no rage compared to that SS
Hell yeah
in m+ yes
Yes
well u should in m+
So basically, max dps talents that sims tell us?
Ravager is just outright better in m+ than ITF in every way
u can hit 15k with BV which is regarded the lower dps talent
thank you for the input. So I need to work on using SS more especially with procs, and generally avoiding using TC unless I dont have a SS or rage for Revenge?
Si
Got it, thanks.
well u need to work on using everything more
being more effective in what you use
and paying attention to SB
u have 66% blocked hits
u should be at 80% minimum


i know
servers are down past maint, but no extendo 😦
Loading up dat alpha
Games dead
9 cpm 😧
Almost as much as classic players!
I wanna play the 9 cpm spec
impressive really. Shows restraint to not do anything for that long
i mean not to be that guy but 59 CPM u must have empty gcds
they just gave up on it 😆

fair. But at 59 I still felt like I was hitting things as they were coming up.
and procs
I actually enjoy prot warr raid tanking
oh noooow they push it to 9PST
and all that jaz
its fun with necro
Gotta really pay attention to what you're doing and you'll notice that you actually have empty gcds
is 100% banner uptime possible?
kk I was pretty close on Skolex but with the running out and slow stacking in pugs
for my own reference, what was my banner uptime on that log I posted?
it would expire with like 10-15s left on the CD
extended for another hour!
First pull of that log
You had a solid 8 seconds between SS, when the CD is only 6,not even counting resets
You had a solid 2 seconds of pressing nothing after that 2nd revenge
overall 37% but look in details easier to tell as we only care about it in combat
When you did infact have rage by pressing IP after that TC
and logs is including tavel time
skolex should be a real easy boss for 100%
do we TC in single target?
remember that you can run out to trigger reprisal even while you're tanking
100%
because the range on the tank cleave is like 20 yards
You need to use TC in St to keep up Banner for 100%
As close to on CD as possible in ST
banner aside you need to TC on ST just to fill every global anyway
@jagged pier and @strong forum thank you. You're very helpful.
👍
for sure, I had super high uptime in a slow stacking pug and it was my first time tanking the fight so its for sure possible and probably one of the easier ones
I'm trying to not be a lazy POS. Guess I just need to click more buttons to get in the habit
how do you look at how many TC or SS you use for the outburst proc in log?
Press the outburst buff icon
Above dmg done
It'll show casts done during outburst buff
And then you just check casts of SS vs TC
another way would be to run it through wowanalyzer
u can put it into wow analizer or damage done -> press events in the top right -> press the outburst icon -> choose thunderclap
wowanalyzer now shows you cast used on SS vs TC
got it! ty ty!
When it should be closer to 130 on SS and like 30-40 on TC
Just to rub some salt into the wound 
What do you guys want to see for prot warr in 10.0?
for the class not to have a crutch and be fun to play
a way to play without borrowed power
All good. I came here for feedback and I appreciate it
Achievable 100% block time through playing well without the need of reprisal
And phatty dam
100% block time would be fkn nice
Yes
I want that. I personally would like to see reprisal go. I like reprisal but ready for a change
unpopular opinion but i dont think any class should have 100% uptime on mitigation
Emphasis on playing well, I don't want pwar to be as easy as in bfa
it takes the "active" out of active mitigation
give both AM and HR
I dont mind the class being a bit easier honestly
i find prot pal extremely snooze cuz their shield block is 100% uptime
and you still feel like paper
Cuz looking back compared to now, boy bfa was fucking atrociously easy
just slightly less harder than it is now would be perf
imo
Yah
Just take reprisal away, give the same benefits through rotation
And it's peak
yup
thats why ppal is fun though, youre blasting damage but you have to be good with your defensives to make up for your shield not being as good as warriors
or if we could have both HR and AM right now would be amazing
HR bseline?
prot pal feels kinda rng, if you don't block, you are just getting smacked
HR works, but make it like 0.5sec per SS
maybe I'm comparing with warrior, so it felt worse lmao
HR is a little too braindead
Its braindead with reprisal
I think it comes to class identity. Warrior is the charging in combat tank, so I think it makes sense to keep Reprisal effects going into 10.
maybe without it wouldnt be so overkill but it could be tuned sure
Its fkn nice on fort weeks
HR + reprisal is giga ez mode on
ii dont think palying pinball is class identity
i want to charge once and staying in there for a long time
and not move
except for mechs
yup
the feedback of AM is so nice
Aka, being a saiyan
Or let Sword and Board grant a charge of SB and reset SS or something
Feed that rage machine
playing with reprisal for 3+ years is going to be exhausting
I dont play much prot honestly
The biggest issue is
I gave it a good shot and Im ok on tyr weeks
Pwar takes 4x more effort to keep up your defensives just to survive, compared to other tanks
That's my main gripe
but reprisal sort of turned me off the spec. Im lazy and use the intervenes and initial charge only lol
If all tanks had to go through the same hoops, I wouldn't mind
But literally every tank but vdh and pwar don't have to do special shit
^
Alternative's being The Wall? Reprisal is a lot of upkeep, but it's at least more engaging than watching Shield Wall CD skip down.
thats exactly what i mean
And vdh is only cuz of rng
Pally is fun because you can focus on route and damage instead of constantly worrying about dying and grouping and shit
we have AM for that
no jorag the alternative is that blizzard makes something actually fun
that isn't annoying as all hell
The wall isn't anywhere near engaging
something as simple as a 3 minute cd that gives both charges of block back
It's just +5 rage on SS and -5sec CD in SW, which we have AM for
SW is already only a like 50sec CD
Wall wouldn't help there
Cuz the shorter a CD, the less impactful the CDR is
old AM and bolster would be nice if we were to lose reprisal
but I think they will keep reprisal in the talent tree
I didnt play BFA or any other expac, anything from those old expansions that would be cool to see come back?
glad stance
5sec SR
banners
Larger rage pool
venegnace
ranged kick?
SR actually refelcting everything
Rfdt
gag order
i would be down for bolster if LS was reduced by AM again
Yeah
i think that's a decent "fill block downtime by playing well" mechanic
I just want to be self sufficient ahha
not so reliant on team to run a damn +15
do yall want to keep unnerving focus
need somthing to make LS good
We are largely self sufficient, it's just that dungeon design fucking us by throwing dispel meta at us and infinite cast mobs
i want last stand removed or totally reworked
dogshit ability
carried every expansion by borrowed power
The group effort required is just too high
An Indomitable buff would be amazing
Make execute gives SB 
2% indom
and have overflowing rage all the time spamming IP so spend it
Thx
make it like 1.5 or 2%
ya
100%
im not opposed to that
i am
Yeah Indom depends on our rage loop pretty heavily
if we aren't spending as much rage in 10.0 as we are now it'll be a bit worse
yer but in S1 it would have been busted
currently 2% broken but take away the borrowed power and isdk
Then it's just alright
would be nice to have a real oh shit button
not a lay on hands but like last stand could heal you somehow
Oh shit buttons arent good
play better and make it so you don't need an oh shit button
you have healthstones and health pots
that's all you should need
Let Impending Victory be baseline for prot
like Last stand increases indom to 10% or something
There's your oh shit button
when prot war talent tree blizzard 
baseline IV would be pretty insane
i wonder if IV at its current state would be too OP baseline
it would
