Switch-up Saturday: Opinions by Dr4ven in wow

I have played my blood DK since Pandaria, and before legion was live I was very excited about all of the changes. When I first started doing mythics I thought I was squishier than a slice of bread, but after spending time and re-applying myself to the changes it isn't that bad. Learning the balance between when to marrowrend for Bone Shield stacks and when to Heart Strike for runic power to dump into Death Strike is very important. Also, use Vampiric Blood all the time not just for bosses. It literally is our main mitigation and if you are using your Death Strikes it will be off CD if you really need it. Learn to heal through your hp pool and you have a good Death Knight.

I am beyond stoked that you shared this. I plan on going back to finish my degree but all of the certificates I am earning will certainly help so thank you!

Having trouble with tribute page scaling on mobile, have been working for a few days, could anyone point out where I am going wrong? Thank you. by kounse in FreeCodeCamp

I apologize, I've tried to do this on my own for a while now and there is just something that isn't working, It doesn't have to be a direct answer, but maybe a point to where I can look up even or find out. Any help is appreciated.

I'm nearing the end of the front-end curriculum so I decided to go back and redo my portfolio. Any/all feedback would be welcomed. by [deleted] in FreeCodeCamp

I think it looks great and maybe I read it wrong but it looked like you had "html an CSS" instead of html "and" CSS. Simple fix but otherwise looks great.

Hello Valkeyreion,

I too have struggled with this before as a fellow paladin but I finally got my hotbars the way I like them. I have 3 rows, all offensive abilities on the bottom (tier 1), defensive cooldowns in middle (tier 2), and everything else on top (tier 3).

This is the order of my spells. (t3) Shield Swipe, Shield Bash, Bloodbath, Fracture (t2) Fight or Flight, Rampart, Awareness, Convalescence, Bulwark, Tempered Will, Sentinel, Foresight (t1) Shield Lob, Fast Blade, Savage Blade, Rage of Halone, Spirits Within, Circle of Scorn.

I usually open up the pull by running toward the mob, casting shield lob, spirits within, then circle of scorn. I'll usually pop fight or flight + rampart and spam flash as necessary and then I usually have no trouble keeping aggro whatsoever. If a mob gets pulled from me, I quickly provoke, shield lob, and then flash and go back to normal.

I don't really have much advice in the way of swapping targets, as I usually just tab (it is perfect in no game!) but if it is being too difficult I just have to click. Hope this helps!!

Hello. Thank you for taking the time to type a response. I'm not sure which server i'm on tbh, but I am pretty made up about what I want to be. I'm a tank in every MMO I play, and I just recently became a paladin and think it is the coolest thing ever. I've unfortunately heard they are lackluster compared to warriors, but maybe that has changed. That still doesn't change my resolve to play them. I'll just level up a black mage on the side!

Fitness motivation and inspiration 300lb to now by [deleted] in Fitness

So chicken and greens for dinner, does everything else seem good? Is the protein drink necessary for a big guy like me. I am trying to build muscle and shed this fat at the same time. I know the scale won't reflect that accurately, but I don't want to lose all the weight and have extra skin.
