    Banner has to be cast prior to Dragon Roar for 20% crit damage boost. Same goes for Berserker Rage to make sure that you are enraged. What you are talking about is Recklessness.

    If you cast banner after DR you miss out on 20% damage and 20% of that damage is not applied to Bloodbath aswell. Not good.

    I went back the other week for giggles, derped and died on wave 53. Stamina, stamina everywhere is the best bet. (Reforged D/P)
    Unless the socket bonus is stamina, just ignore it, intimidating shout, piercing howl, glyphed leap and longcharge glyph makes life a lot easier.
    I decided to focus offensive and defensive cooldowns around wave 2, 6, 9. Sometimes changing it up when needed.
    When you cant handle the incoming damage just kite, slow, fear, leap, intervene, charge new spawns etc.

    Also helps to put up a raid marker to make it easier orientating where the new spawns will come from.
    Edit. Forgot i actually recorded it, so if you wanna see how i do the different waves, can check it out here Wave 40

    I'm running an avoidance build with a few stamina gems to bump up my health to about 1 million raid buffed (without shaman buff), so far it seems I'm doing fine in terms of damage done and intake. Good to see warriors on the top of the charts now as opposed to bottom during ToT (with DKs).

    Hey, so been doing Immerseus heroic in my guilds alts and had some difficulties with the breaths, I do the first fine with barrier alone, second I can do with barrier + shield wall, but cant take the third, but according to my guild, its possible to do all 3 on a single tank, as use a druid for it.

    Dont feel that barrier helps much on the boss as he doesnt hit hard enough for it to get big, basically stuck with 200-250k shields.

    Am I missing something with warriors or are druids (other tanks) just better at handling the massive dmg from third breath?

    C1n you survive to the second breath with Demoralizing Shout and use Shield Wall for the third? Else you still have D Shout and Last Stand for the third.
    Have you got the Protector's trinket? The /use should work for it.

    Else, let your legendary cloak soak it if you have one.

    third breath (assuming you got hit by the first 2) does 900k dmg * 6, with is 5.4mill dmg, I did try with shield wall + 200k barrier shield, it blasted straight through everything + cloak (cloak only works aslong as the hit is lower than 2 times your max health).

    Know we can just tank swap, which we did end up doing, but would be fun to hear if anyone else found a way around it.

    Does the cloak work? I tried taking one without any CDs (with stacks) and I got 1 shotted with no cloak proc.

    This is how I do it:

    1: Barrier
    2. Demo shout/Barrier
    3. Shield Wall/Sac/Barrier/AOE trinket

    I actually have taken a 4th basically calling for as many externals as I could and my cloak saved me.

    /cast [mod:shift] Skull Banner
    /cast Bloodbath
    /cast Dragon Roar

    For max dps with the RP glyph, it becomes SS->tclap->rev ?
    Looking at the graph eddy posted tclap always wins over revenge but not sure how to factor in the rage loss :s

    rage > all. Don´t forget you 60 rage into Shieldblock into glyphed Shieldbash. Glyphed Tclap only makes it gain prio over devestate as filler.

    Yeh, but the thing is, i never run out of rage to keep max sb uptime and revenge is proccing so much im finding it hard to even fit tclap into the rotation.
    This is for max dps, additional sbar uptime can suffer.
    when i first read about it, it was used on cooldown for max dps. Im guessing HOL procs also effects the outcome.

    Eddy, you mind giving the long answer ? <3

    Hello how's everybody doing? Any advices on Thok heroic 10man,is it worth going stam/mast build for it?

    Example: If you bind that macro to the key "T" and press T it will do the macro without banner. If you press SHIFT-T it will do the macro including the banner.

    This will only work if no other action is bound to SHIFT-T.

    I just did 25 and Avoidance was more than fine - I expect 10 man your dps matters a little more so I would doubly recommend it. The boss doesn't do too much damage if you're not cheesing with super high stacks.

    Hey all, got Shamans and Nazgrim down on HC this weekend

    Had about 45 mins on Malkorok before clearing on normal, I think 7 hc bosses is enough progress for one week, though I'll most likely get shot for saying that! I jest, we just can't raid on Mondays/Tuesdays due to IRL!

    Anywayyyy.

    I got hc Rook's trinket this week. Does it work on Malkorok's Blood Rage? (Cleave ability /phase 2).

    If so, is it possible to solo tank as a Warrior? I heard rumours it was possible for Guardian droods to solo tank the encounter, that was over on the Raids/Dungeons forum.
