Without a weapon they couldn't heal

#

I'm actually excited for wrath classic to pvp like that again.

Bring back shield spikes lol

vernal vale

Taith was amazing

hollow sun
#

i mean, drowning pool. NF warrior with culling of stratholme shield

#

can't get more nostalgic than this

vernal vale
#

Yeah

hollow sun
#

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 gladge

vernal vale
#

It might be out there somewhere but finding it would be the problem.

sick sentinel
#

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

toxic pewter
#

Can just level a new alliance character it doesn’t take long

#

Can just spam dungeons

sick sentinel
#

he wont have 277 ilvl tho

#

or all the quest crap unlocked

toxic pewter
#

That’s true for df that won’t matter much

#

But season 4 I understand

sick sentinel
#

i spent all of BFA and all of SL playing this character, can't abandon him

toxic pewter
#

What race you goin

sick sentinel
#

mostl likely going to rogue's server

toxic pewter
#

Prob dwarf?

sick sentinel
#

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 🙂

toxic pewter
#

Ya

sick sentinel
#

"ah someone took your name, you have to change it" that was my plan...

toxic pewter
#

Ya

#

Not bad idea

strong forum
#

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?

toxic pewter
#

No

strong forum
#

bolstering has nothing to do with banner uptime

jagged pier
#

well it might do if u pull far to much then have to kite

#

but thats like pulling 20 mobs

left temple
#

dont call me out like that

strong forum
#

well in that case necro is even better cuz kyrian just makes you squishier

jagged pier
#

also true

regal yacht
#

Is does abit due to dropping combat frequently to not bolstering the next pak

strong forum
#

thats like 0.1sec

jagged pier
#

that shouldnt be an issue at all

strong forum
#

just dont leave before the pack is dead

regal yacht
#

Same time I last in bed

urban portal
#

One time empowering tc is good

#

Outburst tc and go next pack

#

While your dps finished it off

cobalt seal
#

What was the overall % uptime of banner in previous weeks @regal yacht

toxic pewter
#

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

ionic fern
#

That's awfully low.

toxic pewter
#

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

dawn canyon
#

always
posting
bait

ionic fern
toxic pewter
#

I played well. So well, in fact, they invited me to the +8.

ionic fern
#

You THINK you played well.

toxic pewter
#

I played well for me

cobalt seal
#

He is a troll

toxic pewter
#

That is true

#

I am not a troll

ionic fern
toxic pewter
#

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

dawn canyon
urban portal
#

20%

#

i wonder if i can hit 40% clicking my abilities

toxic pewter
#

I worked really hard just to get 32%. We didn’t time the key either. Missed it by 1 hour 34 minutes

cobalt seal
#

Including mods

toxic pewter
#

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 🤞

autumn pendant
#

Is this some quality content?

urban portal
#

literally waht else do you want me to do whaen im eating lunch

#

scroll tiktok?

toxic pewter
#

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

fresh kernel
#

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

toxic pewter
#

Not dumb question at all. I also would like to know the answer.

fresh kernel
#

Im sure you would

toxic pewter
#

Sensing a tone there.. I will just move on though

fresh kernel
#

Lmao

dawn canyon
#

the answer is last stand's conduit

hazy edge
#

spam revenge, use IP to dump rage if you would overcap, spam SS for rage.

dawn canyon
#

that increases rage gen massively

toxic pewter
#

The best answer I have seen is “press your buttons”

hazy edge
#

Use LS as a dps cd for the rage gen

fresh kernel
#

So it legit is just spam your fuckin buttons, got it

hazy edge
#

Don't waste outburst procs

toxic pewter
#

Yeah basically

dawn canyon
toxic pewter
#

80 at least

dawn canyon
#

so press a lot of buttons

toxic pewter
#

120 is when things get really interesting

fresh kernel
#

Alright. I've been seeing that thrown around, wasn't sure how serious it was lmao

#

thanks lmfao

toxic pewter
#

It’s dead serious

serene steppe
#

Are people pulling the entire POST room in Streets during this week?

#

Dont you need to interrupt the guys opening the cages?

toxic pewter
#

I pull one pack at a time

dawn canyon
toxic pewter
#

In pug I find one pack at a time is best

dawn canyon
#

(this is a reference to me missing cap totems)

cobalt seal
#

@ionic fern

serene steppe
#

I thought you had to stop the cages or the perma stun chickens run loose

dawn canyon
cobalt seal
#

So you know you were being trolled

toxic pewter
#

That was on my main prot cro

cobalt seal
#

Apb drop the fucking act

toxic pewter
#

I have a dwarf alt now

cobalt seal
#

Everyone here knows you are a troll

dawn canyon
#

if ur gna troll try be funny

toxic pewter
#

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

serene steppe
#

I just didnt wanna pull too much since its bolstering

toxic pewter
#

Either do whole room or go one pack at a time. No half measures

lofty widget
#

i'd pull the 2 packs near the entrance out of the room

toxic pewter
#

Can invis to them and then pull and run out

lofty widget
#

so it doesnt matter if chickens go off or not

#

then chain last pack with boss or something

serene steppe
#

Do chickens not follow outside?

toxic pewter
#

They do

serene steppe
#

or are they not in combat when released

lofty widget
#

they have to run a lot further

#

so doesnt happen nearly as often

serene steppe
#

ah okay

toxic pewter
#

Are you playing with a friend group or pug

#

If pug just go one pack at a time in my opinion

serene steppe
#

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

toxic pewter
#

I pull one pack at a time and if someone pulls that’s not me I exit the instance at that time and place.

serene steppe
#

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

lofty widget
#

nah dont go by "the standard"

#

just keep pushing yourself

#

when 1 pack becomes too easy, try adding another etc

serene steppe
#

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

lofty widget
#

i mean youre the tank so you decide what gets pulled

#

and if someone ninjas (on purpose), let them die

serene steppe
#

What about the big guy thats before the last boss? Is he pulled alone or can you pull stuff onto him

toxic pewter
#

Yes route is very important you always want to be thinking at least one pull ahead

serene steppe
#

ye

toxic pewter
#

Alone for sure in my opinion

#

That mini boss hectic as hell

serene steppe
#

I tried pulling the big guy and one guy thats on the way to POST and we wiped

toxic pewter
#

Or just skip entirely

lofty widget
#

it becomes pretty toxic for ranged if you pull stuff on him

#

since theyll charge to them and interrupt

toxic pewter
#

You can skip that mini boss if you really want even

lofty widget
#

so solo always imo

serene steppe
#

He does some charge and people get knocked into more stuff

lofty widget
#

yeh

serene steppe
#

How can you skip him?

lofty widget
serene steppe
#

yeee dont think I would wanna try that in a pug

toxic pewter
#

You just mind soothe it

serene steppe
#

Thought there would be some fool proof way

#

It just feels bad only pulling one thing in m+

toxic pewter
#

Yeah just tank that mini boss against the jutting out wall things

serene steppe
#

Feels like we are going slow

lofty widget
#

just for good measure, you spam click the tp console while jumping over this wall

toxic pewter
#

I like mini bosses

dawn canyon
#

narz / streets / duel wing

toxic pewter
#

Season 4 getting all dungeons getting a mini boss

#

The new dreadlord mini boss

#

It’s optional

dawn canyon
#

duel wing big shit

lofty widget
#

i might be alone in this but i kinda like that m+ isnt just all mindless aoe anymore

dawn canyon
#

i do like that

serene steppe
#

Do people pull mini bosses with other trash in duel wing?

dawn canyon
#

id prefer to but kinda cant

lofty widget
#

^i do that after arbalast is dead

#

cause he fucks

#

otherwise you can do double miniboss for time save depending which 2 you get

dawn canyon
#

shield one zzz

lofty widget
#

yeh

zealous willow
#

Do u guys think they will buff warr next season ?

lofty widget
#

just with wo i think

lofty widget
#

so doubtful

zealous willow
#

arent warrs behind monk dh and dk ?

waxen orbit
dawn canyon
#

pog

serene steppe
#

The only thing I would want for warrior is heroic throw silence

waxen orbit
# zealous willow arent warrs behind monk dh and dk ?

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

serene steppe
#

Its sickening to just watch a guy range cast on you

cobalt seal
#

and just because you aren't first

#

doesn't mean you need buffs lol

zealous willow
#

I was curious

lofty widget
waxen orbit
#

Fair question to ask

dawn canyon
#

buff dps warrior

zealous willow
#

Actualy prot warr is only tank i never played in shadowlands , so not real exp

cobalt seal
#

all tanks are fine lol

#

except vdh and bear ST

waxen orbit
#

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

zealous willow
#

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 ?

cobalt seal
#

(isn't that a question for bdk discord)

waxen orbit
#

Yeah I don't think anyone here objects to the fact that BDK should be nerfed

toxic pewter
#

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

cobalt seal
#

but considering apb is here without being banned

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

waxen orbit
zealous willow
#

So its time to make tank warr now

toxic pewter

#

ONE shitpost?

#

one shitpost and a million baits probably

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.

waxen orbit
#

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?

cobalt seal

since it makes lurkers

do what he says

waxen orbit

This is a place for discourse, right?

toxic pewter

I sometimes get things wrong. I am human

waxen orbit

Like I'm not trying to dickride here

#

I'm just saying

toxic pewter
#

Nah u good

mighty valley
#

extending the braindead gun control debate was maybe a step too far

toxic pewter
#

Yea that was off topic that’s true

#

But I have already made amends for that

waxen orbit
#

Oh I didn't look at that

#

Yeah keep politics out of here please

lofty widget
#

he words his opinions as facts, and that baits ppl i dont think it's longer than that tbh

toxic pewter

HAVE I NOT paid the price

#

I was BANNED DAMN YOU

How long must I live with this shame

#

HOW LONG I SAY

dawn canyon

sad u came back

toxic pewter

#

we're just discoursing 🙂

zealous willow
#

Yo suggest me a good race for horde warrior or i must go dwarf ? :X

toxic pewter
mighty valley
waxen orbit
#

Doesn't matter south of a 20 but if you're genuinely pushing, it's amazing to have Stoneform

lofty widget
#

south of like 27-28 tbh

serene steppe
#

Gnome escape artist is pretty op

zealous willow
#

Hightmauntain charge , versa and dmg red is bad ? Cus of no dmg aspect

toxic pewter
#

Ya I like gnome a lot and 1% haste is nice

dawn canyon
waxen orbit
toxic pewter
#

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

waxen orbit
#

It's kind of asinine to say it's not huge

lofty widget
#

sure, still isnt gonna be the deciding factor if you time a key or not

#

just play correctly idk

waxen orbit
#

Nah, but can be a deciding factor on living a pull

#

Or helping out your healer

toxic pewter
lofty widget
#

just saying you made it sounds like stoneform was mandatory when you can prob time 30s a gnome or some shit

waxen orbit
#

Never said it was mandatory nor made it sound like that dw

#

It's amazing to have

toxic pewter
#

I actually respect this take on night elf

#

I would play night elf

lofty widget
#

nelf best race, especially with the new red eyes

dawn canyon
#

change yep

toxic pewter
#

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

sick sentinel
#

stranger things 4 intro

dawn canyon
#

@sick sentineli might buy a change for DF idk deadge

sick sentinel
#

i dunno if or when im continuing that, we'll have to see i guess

cobalt seal
#

doesn't matter what you pick

#

you look at them

#

and pick whatever looks better

toxic pewter
#

Oh it matters

#

It matters more than most can even estimate

cobalt seal
#

@waxen orbit you were saying

waxen orbit
#

If someone can't tell that he's shitposting I don't know what to say man

cobalt seal
#

he shouldn't be

#

and people might take it serious

#

because they dont come here everyday

toxic pewter
#

I’m not shitposting. I believe it matters arguably more than anything when creating a toon

dawn canyon
sick sentinel
#

i'll buy DF day one

toxic pewter
#

You guys act like picking the race you enjoy to view and interact with the most is unimportant or something

cobalt seal
#

where did we say that

toxic pewter
#

It’s perhaps the most important other than the class itself

sick sentinel
#

race and class 2 most important decisions in all of wow

toxic pewter
#

It matters a lot

dawn canyon
#

it does not

toxic pewter
#

For power too

#

Looks and power

#

The whole package

#

Yeah I’m dumb for believing the race you pick is important LOL

dawn canyon
#

if u dont like the looks

#

noggenfogger

#

done

toxic pewter
#

yikes

cobalt seal
sick sentinel
#

it's okay, im not going to run away or cower in fear because there is some warriors popping intimidating shout here rn lol

toxic pewter
#

Race is a binary, all in situation

#

Power and looks

sick sentinel
#

i popped my beserk long time ago, no fear

toxic pewter
#

They all come as a package deal

cobalt seal
#

<@&257983573498265600> can we end this endless trolling of apb?

toxic pewter
#

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

cobalt seal
#

for the looks

#

not power

lofty widget
cobalt seal
#

dont make him elaborate

toxic pewter
#

Most generally pick the class they want to play first when rolling a new char

sick sentinel
#

you can't make a human druid for example

toxic pewter
#

Right

sick sentinel
#

so you HAVE to roll a race that is compatible, not a huge problem for warrior

urban portal
#

are you trying to say i cant play rogue tank

sick sentinel
#

you mean demon hunter?

He also died to intervene like 10 times the next key keksquad

dawn canyon
#

you love to see it

sick sentinel
#

focus target macro intervene the melee or range? curious your guys opinions on this, i can see good reasons to have both as focus

dawn canyon
#

focus for kicks wtf

#

just mouseover

sick sentinel
#

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

chrome falcon
#

which is your focus getting involved for intervene

dawn canyon
#

idk i charge on 1 and intervene on shift E

#

on all 3 war specs

sick sentinel
#

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

dawn canyon
#

if u mouseover you have the agency

#

and you also get to focus kick

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?

cinder storm
#

Seismic for memes

chrome falcon
#

seismic is big dam

#

but harder to play

cinder storm
#

Reprisal to git gud

chrome falcon
#

reprisal probably makes smoother runs

ancient ore
#

Would you say reprisal will be better for beginning of season 4 due to the survivability benefit?

chrome falcon
#

no idea if we'll need it

#

like 15s might be a joke

cinder storm
#

Reprisal is one of not the best leggos in SL

chrome falcon
#

but if they're even remotely hard

#

wear reprisal

cinder storm
#

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

ancient ore
#

Wouldn't seismic be better if there is lack of damage? But I guess if teammates miss kicks DPs won't matter.

cinder storm
#

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

dawn canyon
#

no reason to go below 15

dawn canyon
#

yes do huge dam

#

but if ur top thats not gna be timed 90% of the time

cinder storm
#

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

median tulip
#

Lots of 15 keys now I'm 3rd on the DPS; there's almost always a carry in 15s now

ancient ore
#

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.

dawn canyon
#

stop at like 275

ancient ore
cinder storm
#

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

ancient ore
#

Is necro the still the best for mythic+? (4pc)

dawn canyon
#

if i feel like dying i just turn around

cinder storm
#

Necro is the best for raid too

ancient ore
dawn canyon
#

i prefer 15s

cinder storm
#

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

celest stirrup
#

what is the sweet spot for farming gear? 4s?

dawn canyon
#

15+ since it drops at 262

chrome falcon
#

14

#

for farming gear

celest stirrup
#

well people dont just let pugs in @252i

chrome falcon
#

no point going 15

ancient ore
#

Did you hold lower ilvl tier pieces then upgrade with valor?

cinder storm
#

Never

dawn canyon
#

for like a week or 2

ancient ore
#

See forgot about that 14 can drop 262

#

I*

cinder storm
#

Ilvl then shield then stats

ancient ore
#

So I shouldn't bother using my valor on my 252 tier pieces?

cinder storm
#

I wouldn't

dawn canyon
#

you have like 200 catalyst charges

#

so i wouldnt

ancient ore
#

I am only 3/4 tier set.

cinder storm
#

Unless you have an ungodly amount of free time and can farm like 20k valor per week

dawn canyon
#

ilvl on tier doesnt really matter for a while

hazy edge
#

ilvl on tier and leggos doesn't really matter, the effect they bring is stronger

cinder storm
#

If you can get it and it's only one piece go for it

ancient ore
#

Thanks, I will just hold out for higher I'll gear then spend valor. I am only 254ish I'll as prot(crappy greens)

dawn canyon
#

if ur group is good (guildies) thats enough for a 15

cinder storm
#

Since it's an alt and you probably don't raid, your chest should be a leggo

ancient ore
#

What is your opinion on the chest piece from Return of Karazhan? The one that buffs the trinket.

cinder storm
#

I don't raid so I'll probably have my leggo crafted on chest either way

sick sentinel
#

you'd have to craft unity in not set slots then

muted nexus
#

worth giving up some haste budget for a socket ring?

cinder storm
#

No

muted nexus
ancient ore
#

Thanks, this helped a lot.

muted nexus
#

assume i will put a haste ench on #1 ofc

cinder storm
#

Still a no

sick sentinel
#

I'm not right person to ask but you'd lose 4 set with this chest and unity helm say

muted nexus
ancient ore
#

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.

cinder storm
#

Chest unity, leggos boots, rest tier

onyx vessel
#

Chest unity peepostudy

#

Mines in belt

cinder nova
#

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

topaz field
#

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

lofty widget
#

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

topaz field
#

ok i thought so

#

thx

topaz field
sweet summit
#

uhm

#

that's not related to what was said

cobalt seal
#

I don't even know the problem with mistdancer

#

if tank knows how to play it

sweet summit
#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

topaz field
#

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

dawn canyon
#

the mobs are fine but its a shit pack to dps so i prefer skipping it

topaz field
#

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

dawn canyon
#

chains also blow

sick sentinel
#

laughs in paladin

dawn canyon
sweet summit
#

yeah but you don't need that pack in the pull

#

that's the big questionmark i have

cobalt seal
topaz field
#

i legit dont understand what u are trying to tell me

#

apart from u are so great u can dodge a frontal

cobalt seal
#

That the pack isnt as bad as you make it to be

#

Especially considering you should have like 6 stacks for it

topaz field
#

there are plenty of easier mobs which i prefer to play

fallow narwhal
#

at least sds frontal shows

topaz field
#

and those mobs even give better count

cobalt seal
#

Pretty much all the ring trash is about same lvl

topaz field
#

no only chamber sentinels have same count

#

all other mobs are 4 count iirc

#

and probably wardens

cobalt seal
#

Scribes are worst than mistdancer

topaz field
#

yes ofc

#

but u cannot dodge them

#

or rather skip

cobalt seal
#

Sure Skip scribes

#

Lets Skip everything

i said cannot

seriously dont know what u want from me

if u want to piss me off u already did

but i cba talking anymore to a wall

Thats how you are supposed to tank mistdancer

And voila free count and extended buff

sonic crag
cobalt seal
#

first things first

#

you CPM

jagged pier
#

well your casts are really

cobalt seal
#

is 20 lower

#

than it should

jagged pier
#

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

sonic crag
#

As in overcapping?

jagged pier
#

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

sonic crag
#

Is there a reason to use SS on Outburst, even while tanking a pack, other than the rage generation that SS gives?

jagged pier
#

it does more damage

sonic crag
#

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?

jagged pier
#

also due to the extra rage

#

thats more avatars

#

more AM cooldown

#

etc etc

#

u can use TC at the start of a pull

pallid finch
#

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?

jagged pier

but you arent only doing that

thats last season numbers

That's good to know. Is it at least like 10k?
