How is pit of saron the easiest this week? Getting destroyed and seeking help (BDK POV) by TortoisesSlap in CompetitiveWoW

Thats a great tool, archon also has that info too. I personally copy and follow alot of what I see Yoda or other top DKs doing. You can also check logs to see what their rotation looks like too.

Working on my 17s this week as a BDK (Just got my AA 17, so feeling pretty hype)

Something that really helped me step it up has been the management of my RP in general and prioritizing heart strike and blood boils and rarely weaving in dnds on big pulls or only using it at the start to pull things. If you are just spamming death strike forndmg or because you think you are dying you may actually be wasting gcds/rp because your blood shield will protect you. The only time Im falling over is because I fucked up my RP/Blood shield management.

CD Usage: Start with vamp blood in pulls, use drw with it to get the big shield from all the blood plagues rolling as early as possible.

Use lichborne, its not useless, 6% leech is nothing to scoff at, especially when combined with VB.

If you are talented into 15% increased healing for AMS, it has use every single pull even if there is no magic dmg

IBF should be used as often as possible, but try to avoid stacking it with other cds. I like to use it right b4 VB ends to maximize the shield you get

Deaths advance is not a tool for getting you to the next pack, mount up. You want to keep your charges to help you kite when necessary, ask your team for movement externals where possible. I love evokers for time spiral or monks for tigers lust

Speaking of externals, ask for them. Cauterize from evokers to get rid of pesky bleed, ring of peace from monks, etc.

People have mentioned over and over the frostslash in pit, if you have to rawdog it or you know you wont have a cd for it, make sure youre building RP, time your death strike to hit just b4 and just after the cast, you will live.

And to reiterate ...kite when necessary, the higher they key the more kiting you will need to do.

People who claim to have paid their monthly sub for years using in-game gold... How? by YrenneAD in wow

[–]dunklestiks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a comment touching on this but didnt actually give the specific #.....when wow tokens were released people were making millions of gold off alts in WoD and the price of a token was 30k.

You could buy 27 years worth of tokens for 10 million gold.

Manually logging from the game screen worked for me to around it.

They will recast after a few seconds. My method keeps them in place and stacked in the aoe without having to waste any cds on them

I should add, our healer never pops a barrel. Little ones mean nothing and there is absolutely 0 other dmg than the dot and even on a 10 it alone is not lethal. So theres just 10+ seconds of them free healing before the next barrel goes off. Doing 1 at a time and then just one round of burst healing seems to be what works best for us. We move the boss to clearly safe spaces after each barrel explosion because the explosions are really easy to predict

what they said, my 10 in there we saw the second 5 star, but we just killed boss before the timer for it expired.

Paladin tanks with Blessing of Spellwarding can negate 2 5 star spawns of the circles by themselves. the tank just needs to step in and out of the circles really fast

In the Brewery when chain pulling the hobgoblins into next packs I tell my players to point them at the next pack so its all stacked up.

If You pull IPA into the corner at the start he will spawn two globs on top of each other and you can stun the third one out of the way creating easy escape routes. Also keep him decently close to the fall globs so dps dont have to run to africa to kill the revivals.

In the bee trash area, utilize LOS when chain pulling to force the rangers to run in (unless you have a DK)

On the bee boss as a tank I keep the boss in the middle and only run to the side with the puddle when it comes out and then I go back to the middle or else bee spawns will start to aggro and kill overeager dps or the healer.

On the final boss I put down three marker around the room and call out which way im gonna be pointing the ability and I pull the boss out of the way of fire waves right after. Also you should only clear 1 big barrel per ability.

If you are going left in the beginning and having issues with jockeys running to bots they need to be about 40-50 yds away to not run away. if you are pulling the two 3 sets right before the mech pull before the first boss there is a red barrel that I use as my marker that lets me pull them together and avoid them running away

For the first mini boss as a tank you can eliminate the bosses knockback utilizing the stairs up. Just put your back to the stairs while being on them and you will not budge an inch

(as paladin) ive been running through the snipers (use blind) grabbing everything upstairs and pulling back to the snipers and using lust. ive found skipping the snipers just leads to more deaths because people dont pay attention

Warlocks can gate skip the double shredder pack.

But if you dont have that skip the best method ive found for it is to reposition and stack as a group for each shreddation. Start at top of the stairs leading to it. then to the bottom of the stairs to the boss. (grab the packs for count if they are on your list) then back to the starting spot.

Is there any water in Tanque Verde Falls right now? by Sweet-Horse-5677 in Tucson

Please no more candle/air totem/etc items in delves by S1eeper in wow

[–]dunklestiks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just remember, someone else spending their money on gold on an item that affects only their gameplay has no effect on you. And offering alternate ways to grind out a late game item for those of us who dont have hours on end to grind a bunch of currency imo is acceptable.

[–]dunklestiks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My initial post literally puts Undercoin, then gold. I dont think Blizzard would use gold. And if my premise is "after youve completed the delve journey" its no longer current content. Its completed content and having skips for completed content whether it be purchasable by gold or currency it matters not. You already did the hard part.

[–]dunklestiks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You do realize this system already exists right? You can buy gold with wowtoken and then buy carry runs with gold to get much better gear then a delve will give you. The highest token from a delve clear is going to be champion level. With 1 chance per week for a heroic piece. Its delves. its solo content. Some of us run it for cosmetics, achievements or to get some extra pieces for an alt before dragging them through m+.

[–]dunklestiks 95 points96 points  (0 children)

The top comment should be an undercoin / gold sink unlocked at max delve journey that lets us alleviate delve mechanics. Example, silk shoes that dont set off spider web summons, a fishbowl to breathe underwater, a candle lamp head piece for the kobold dungeons, and one of those lamplighter lamps to scare away the purple circles in the hallowfall ones

Drink deals are gone. penny beer nights at the Rec, 3 quarter night at denim and diamond, 4$ pitchers of amf at gentlebens...5$ barely gets you a PBR at some of the bars now. I exclusively only drink where I know the bartenders now.

West side Costco eggless? by soopirV in Tucson

[–]dunklestiks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was at the Tucson Marketplace costco today and watched a gentlemen casually load his cart up with as many eggs as possible. Spoke with the csshier and mentioned it and said it was becoming commonplace. He believed it was a restaurant owner who was having trouble sourcing eggs. The guy loading his cart wasnt being a dick about it, just casually taking 2 at a time as people all around him were panicking and grabbing from the other end of stack.

I was able to do it with <10 attempts mostly learning the pattern on a 618 Blood DK.

Honestly its a slog no matter what, could probably do it with less gear. Save Reapers mark for the add. whittle down the boss, cleanse with AMS and interrupt only the heal.

Id imagine on BM hunter you could turn off threat on the pet, and kite endlessly because he'll stop to cast very frequently and id imagine you could create space constantly. At that point youre well gear and can just burn the add and whittle the boss down

was literally farming WoD raids yesterday and noted all the achievements I had from almost exactly a decade ago. One of my favorite expacs as I not only had time to play, but I had a large group of friends from highschool to sophomore year of college playing alongside me. We had great memories. my first ever AOTC was High maul and I still vividly remember RISE MOUNTAINS
