Hey guys,
Recently picked up a prot warrior. I was wondering what azerite traits i will be needing to stack to do the huge aoe numbers people are raving about?
Currently im stacking bastion of might for the avatar boost.
But i have a friend who says stacking deafening crash is a higher dps option.
I look at wow head and they say that i should be stacking iron fortess and the one that increases shield slam damage.
So what do you guys pushing high keys stack?
3 Bastion of might, and as many Deafening Crash you can get your hands on. those are the best AZ traits for AoE. Due to RnG it’s hard to find pieces with both on them but the first boss of Mythic BoD drops “BiS” chestpiece and is fairly simple to pug. Iron fortress and brace for impact don’t really impact AoE dps at all really.
At least always have 1 Deafening crash tho the effect of extending demo shout is really really good and boosting your over Tclap dmg is always welcome.
3x BoM
Treacherous
DC
You can play around with DC/Treacherous, but those are the main traits for AOE dmg.
Deafening Crash does not give you the extension with stacking it up so only get 1x Deafening Crash. In M+ Bastion of Might and Iron Fortress are strong traits. Good passives are Bloodsport, Lifespeed, Loyal to the End and Winds of War. Bulwark/Resounding/Rallying Cry buff on inner circles. Undulating Tides and Brace for Impact are great as well.
The best combo is: 1x Deafening 2-3x Bastion 1-2x Iron Fortresss, 1x Undulating, 2x Brace, Bloodsport/Resounding/Winds (whatever in there). Focus on 1xDC/2X BOM/ 2x IF then work your way out.
3xBOM especially if u have Azerite trait that reduces Avatar cooldown.
Callous also is good if you stack it, great dmg boost and 6% dr aoe
