The biggest question for me still remains: Why would you ever teach people to optimize a tank spec for maximum dps?! That might be an option for a coordinated group to beat a timer on a high key, but it teaches new tanks looking for guidance all the wrong lessons :(

Started playing Retail WoW in S4 of DF and your guides were incredibly helpful, I was able to to get top-5 M+ Rating on my server because of them! I don't think I can swap off of Brew as long as long as you keep making content, I've gotten too accustomed to how thorough these are. Thanks a ton!

Find a weakaura to track stagger and purified chi stacks for your celestial brew and also a weakaura that just shows you your important buttons (blackout kick, keg) so you hit them off cd

Always looked to you as a tank even when I haven't been playing brewmaster. For TWW it's finally time to try it out. Just being a bit heldback by majority of streamers/youtubers saying brewmaster is lesser good than the other tanks. How do we look for this new expansion?

How does the aoe rotation look? Do we empower tiger palm or breath of fire? Do you not SCK after exploding keg anymore? How does energy regen feel like with all the keg smash and tiger palm spam?
@Equinoxmonk2 күн бұрын
empower TP, BoF in 8+ target when it's convenient in the rotation
@Kamanou95Күн бұрын
SCK is such a weak button, not worth to use it even with EK except maybe very high target counts. We are flooded with Energy because of SP 10% haste + all the free keg smash from 4p, it's pretty much impossible to empty your energy bar unless you're playing completely wrong
@AssywalkerКүн бұрын
with 4p set you might as well take SCK off your bar, there is simple no time to use it you will most likely just end up delaying your BOK or KS to fit it in

It's basically a "prevent your death" talent, so until we are at that threshold it's not useful

Unless you're getting one shot by tank busters, putting points in HT and A&S is more defensiveness over the course of a key, that's why you don't play Ox Stance at least for now

So I know you will disagree. And I'm sure I'm wrong. But I'll ask.. At 14% haste Keg smash CD is 7 sec. With Mastery of Harmony we have 2 Charges of Celestial brew. Every Purify and Celestial we get special delivery... Could the dmg profile of constantly having brews be higher or no.. I know BOK from tier gives more keg but my brain goes more access to brews more special delivery more DMG mitigation. Thanks as always for your guide
@Equinoxmonk2 күн бұрын
issue with haste is it doesnt do anything but give you a bit of cdr and it usually adds up to less damage than just doing flat boosts like vers/mast
@AssywalkerКүн бұрын
not getting a shorter GCD from haste is what really holds it back :( also, special delivery is like 5% of your dmg, don't try to optimize for that :)
