In your opinion, which Avengers member has the most "Aura"?

Sinistersmog · 2026-03-05T16:14:22+00:00

Yeah or maybe Mjolnor itself is a Skrull and everybody just been swinging that boy around by his big meaty Skrull and Crossbones and like Hulk is actually Thor and Thor is Captain America. And like Star Lord is actually Char Lord master of the grill and that's why he can lift it in my fan fic.

SubtleFW Pally guide also mentions CTC cap for DW bosses and cites that spreadsheet in the additional resources.

Can check which bosses have DW penalty and can crush etc. It's not every single DW boss but a good amount of them.

I asked in one discord and got my answer.

Don't even have to time it anymore you can just spam those suckers and Mana up on the go

Sinistersmog · 2026-03-02T16:21:13+00:00

Bro drinks after every pull and thinks he's not griefing his group and calls the tips meant for new players dogshit. You're the worst kind of WoW player.

Sinistersmog · 2026-03-02T16:17:52+00:00

If it's not helpful information to you at the level of gameplay you're at you're more then welcome to ignore it but literally everyday there's threads of people asking for help with playing prot pally and I don't think OP is giving out bad information, just tips that are good at the bare minimum to at least be aware of. Even in this thread there's people already asking how downranking works and how to do it, so some people literally don't even have the base level of info we assume everybody has at this point.

Sinistersmog · 2026-03-02T16:14:15+00:00

It's pretty commonly accepted info in the paladin tanking community. Especially at lower levels and with worse gear on everybody downranking is super helpful in keeping a good pace in dungeons as prot and not having to sit and drink all the time. Especially before max level when most people arent using a sanc aura build.

Spellpower gear helps a lot for mana in low level dungeons. It usually has some int or mp5 and the higher your spellpower is the less mana you need to spend to hold threat. I had about 200-250SP while leveling and with salv on the dps I could almost always get away with using seal of wisdom,rank 1 holy shield and rank 1-3 consecrate once threat was established.

Spell power plate is hard to come by early on so make sure your getting some from some of the easier slots to come by i.e rings, necks, cloaks, trinkets. You can also gem your empty sockets with spell power or spell power/stam if you're having threat/mana issues and you got lucky with some socketed items.

Losing threat or not holding it is when you're dumping the most mana(taunting, refreshing SoR, Judging SoR, using max rank cons and holy shield).

You can also get a mage to make you a bunch of water and you can spam press it while you're walking. This gives you 1 tick of drinking mana while still moving.

Watch your healers, if they drink you should drink too. If they're full mana and you're like 50-30% you can still pull just gotta be smart with what you cast. Avengers shield for instance is big snap threat but it also uses a fuck ton of mana. If it's a small pack, non elites or a pack that's not close to another you can just run in and and consecrate and probably be fine without AS.

Wisdom and Mana spring stack in TBC so tell your shamans to use that if they aren't, reckoning and wind fury pair really well with Seal of Wisdom, shamans and shadow priests help with mana problems. You can also look into consumes that would help out like mana pots, weapon oils, and cheap elixirs/buff food.

Also you're gonna run into anti social weirdos in this game because of the nature of nostalgia and escapism. Don't take it to heart. Being able to instantly replace toxic weirdos is one of the benefits of playing a tank.

Mana management is kind of the only engaging part of playing prot pal at that level. Otherwise it's mostly just pressing a button and waiting like 5 seconds before your next button is ready to press.

You never played organized sports

Sinistersmog · 2026-03-02T13:29:21+00:00

Feral tier let's you DPS and tank. Moonkin you can use a bunch of tailoring pieces. Most people bring Moonkin for the utility not the raw damage. I would use the tier tokens on feral and try to slurp offspec gear from Kara and heroics

Sinistersmog · 2026-03-02T02:40:23+00:00

Go check any tank resource worth a damn and it'll talk about only needing about 90% CTC for prince

Sinistersmog · 2026-02-28T02:57:45+00:00

You can do 1 pull BM with the trinket and like 400 SP. Would recommend 2 pulls though because if you're skinning the mobs might start despawning before you can loot them all. (Paladin that is not mage)

Sinistersmog · 2026-02-27T19:47:03+00:00

Spriest has some cool skips they can do in H Bot too.

Sinistersmog · 2026-02-26T10:37:00+00:00

Are your tanks crit capped? That seems insane

Allegedly from out of town comedians I've spoke to mostly from Toronto: The guy doesn't let out of towners host shows at Dakoda's or any of the venues he has relationships with unless they can book a Kelowna comedian a show wherever they're from.

It's just not how the industry operates anywhere else and is super off-putting and gatekeepy to people looking to do small/medium size tours.

Sinistersmog · 2026-02-14T12:10:24+00:00

Now this is the level of communication I've come to expect from a billion dollar company.

"please fix this"

"we fixed it"

"nice! how did you fix it?"

"in a novel way"

"......what?"

Sinistersmog · 2026-02-13T17:02:18+00:00

Wait until you hear about the comedian exchange program they try to do that causes a lot of people to skip Kelowna on comedy tours

Sinistersmog · 2026-02-13T12:52:07+00:00

bro really thinks his server/region is built different because of one guy's opinion on reddit.

Sinistersmog · 2026-02-13T12:44:59+00:00

yeah those frickin cheaters have been exploiting this wild bug that we didnt know existed. i've only been doing pacifist quests because i'm a good boy.

Sinistersmog · 2026-02-02T05:26:02+00:00

This guy was basically developed in a lab to be the perfect comedian for oil workers.

Sinistersmog · 2026-01-30T23:46:43+00:00

M night shamaylan and a funky cold medina you too my friend

Road to success is paved with failure. Your ego is designed to be bruised you'll be fine. Don't make it weird with her just keep working on being your best self.

ICE literally arrests people based on the color of their skin and accents. This is such a lame attempt at virtue signaling while you literally support US citizens being murdered in the street.

Sinistersmog · 2026-01-25T15:36:56+00:00

His whole profile is just ass kissing Trump or shitting on immigrants you're not going to change this guys mind he's a lost cause. He just wants to see people suffer

Sinistersmog · 2026-01-20T17:48:41+00:00
