Legion Timewalking

So I've ran some tests with the Nightmare Eggshell trinket, I kinda dig it. The proc rate isn't as bad and sometimes it can proc back to back giving a grand total of 98 haste. So far got over 6-7 procs in the span of 10min hitting the dummy.
 
Legion TW this week. Things to check out:

1. Spend TW badges on Broken Isles Enchantment Delivery (25 badges ea). Chance for Chaos Crystal is about 20%. Need 12 to do neck enchant, so 1500-2000 badges per enchant.

2. Some juicy trinkets available, will compile a list later.

3. See if any achievements can be done (got Heroic Neltharion's Lair so far).

4. Favor of the Val'sharah Hippogryph works for all lv10+. From TW vendor - 5000 badges

got 2 of the dps trinkets and i can say with confidence that i have a dps increase. im getting around 500dps per boss fight (Single target) before it was roughly 300. may be procs lining up im not sure but def worth checking these two trinkets out!
 
lurker here, I'm probably linking/formatting completely wrong:

Legion Trinkets for Monk PVE:
1. Windscar WhetstoneItem and Mark of DargrulItem are my favorites by far... 1.3k on use and the mark's landslide procs insanely often even if it is split damage

2. Mid: Faulty CountermeasureItem decent trash on use/mid boss damage, Ember of NullificationItem upgraded wod stat stick? niche bonus proc,

3. Letdown/BARELY EVER procs: Spiked CounterweightItem was really excited for this one, Nightmare Egg ShellItem less letdown, but still letdown, Tempered Egg of SerpentrixItem summons will not be able to do full damage before mobs are dead on top of barely proccing, Tirathon's BetrayalItem between letdown and niche, a much worse version of faulty countermeasure dps wise and the absorb isn't anything to write home about (especially since it only procs in range when you're more than likely already topped off from lifesteal), 1:15 cd

4. niche: Parjesh's MedallionItem good, but like when will I use this, Writhing Heart of DarknessItem I dont have this, I mostly play bm, maybe nice if you're squishy? Giant Ornamental PearlItem um niche af? Talisman of the CragshaperItem yet another niche defensive trink, Orb of TormentItem YET ANOTHER... seems more pvp oriented?

5. waste of inventory space: healing spell trinkets, Shard of RokmoraItem better mitigation/second chance options,

note: i mostly play brewmaster so the niche trinkets might be less niche for mist weaver. I have obtained and tested all of the dps trinkets but am speculating on niche stuff (have all but 1 and don't rly know how best to test).

Easy farm on this one as it's the first boss who is a short walk from the entrance. A must have in your trinket collection!

I take it back. I've been farming him for well over a day now with 3 groups of 5, logging in every 30 minutes, and haven't seen a SINGLE trinket drop. All I'm getting are belts, bps and amulets.

Has anybody seen a Parjesh's Medallion drop this week???
 
Writhing Heart of Darkness seems kind of useless, got it for a 20 tank and I never see it proc. Is it a debuff to the attacker? Should I increase crit to help it? idk.

Edit: Shows up as a debuff on the test dummy, stacks 3 and refreshes on the regular. I feel like it's a win.

It's still easy because it's the first boss. Bad RNG is bad RNG. I've farmed the second boss of Underbog with a full 5 man group for something like 12 hours to get a single good belt to drop. There are 2 plate belts, one is better than the other. I had one warrior with 8 Hatebringers before I got the belt.
 
I got it on the 4th attempt, tank loot spec idk if it matters
You raise a good point about loot spec and you can check this in-game. I just checked and Parjesh's Medallion is ONLY on the Warrior loot table for Prot (like you say) and NOT for Fury or Arms.

So if you're having problems making this drop, maybe you're on Fury or Arms loot spec?
 
this may have been already known, but i didnt know if unique-equipped would affect timewarped items paired with the non-tw version, but i did try both medallions, and yeah, you cant equip both.

It's also worth adding, if you have an extra account, even an F2P account, there's no need to wait 30 minutes. This is what you do:

1. Get a whole of the Eye of Azshara instance by doing TW dungeons. In my case i did it with 2 warriors and then had to get everyone else to leave despite them trying to constantly requeue and not getting the hint;
2. Invite the extra account. They won't show up on the party list because they're not in the instance and they can't teleport in (unless, perhaps, the instance isn't finished?)
3. Log out with your toons in the instance
4. After a couple of minutes your external account will become the leader. They can now reset the instance
5. Log back in. New instance and you're at the entrance.
6. Kill the first boss;
7. Log out
8. Exteranl account resets the instance.
9. Go to 5

I just got it! Prot loot spec, -10 runs in that dungeon to get it.

Update: I put a point into second wind on my lvl 20 warrior and when you hit 35% hp you feel like the juggernaut once every 1.5mins lmao

On my warrior did some minimal testing on https://www.wowhead.com/item=136715/spiked-counterweight https://www.wowhead.com/item=137486/windscar-whetstone https://www.wowhead.com/item=137357/mark-of-dargrul https://www.wowhead.com/item=137539/faulty-countermeasure on target dummies, both in groups and single target.

For single targets all four do roughly the same damage, which is around 12 DPS averaged out.
For multiple targets only the whetstone seemed to do significantly more damage, and it seems to be mostly due it being able to proc lifesteal.

Between these four trinkets seems to be simply a question of if you like on-use trinkets or not. If you don't use the mark and counterweight, but if you like lining up trinket cooldowns on bosses then go for whetstone and countermeasure.

For consistency Mark of Dargrul procs often, but on the other hand if Spiked Counterweight procs it can save you a CD on most trash mobs.
 
Q: we got a glitched TW last night and rebuilt the 5man party. I was the only locked toon in the full 5man team they were all 80, someone said " ques broken, we can't que because we're 2/3 dps" what are they referring to? Was it just they didn't to wait for que times you think?

Blizzard likes to slow down XP-locked toons. If there's one in the group, you get delays in queueing with a full group. This was added in either Legion or BFA, I'm not sure which.

It shows up as a full group queueing but the queue says "2/3 DPS". Google that phrase and you'll find threads about this going back at least 6 years. It resolves itself in 1-3 minutes. Requeuing doesn't help. Roughly 20% of the time someone will leave queue and requeue thinking it helps. Blizzard, of course, doesn't make it clear that's what happening so everyone is confused. Some people have macros to explain this in the group chat.

Interestingly, in the current era, what hapepns is the healer leaves if the queue doesn't instantly pop. This happens like 90% of the time IME. Even though their queue might be instant, the next group might be much slower but most people don't do that math.
 
logged onto my priest yesterday for the first time this expac so didn't have any tw gear. these two are my only trinkets but they seem to be doing well
