Well, it's Viable >.>

So a little while ago, Siin threw the idea at me that you might be able to make a full raid of Prot Warriors all running Inspiring Presence. I figured it would be viable if you could get 25-30 Prot Warriors in the group (72-87% of damage done is healed) but it appears it's been done with less. I brought it up in the Prot Warrior discord back around the time 7.0.3 launched and its just recently (in the last few day) been done by some of the guys there on Horde-US, and it looks as though they managed to do it with 14, although I do not know what difficulty.

I'm 99% sure it's normal, I didn't see any roots on gorefiend and the hps seems low on reaver. 14 warriors = 39% leech, i'd expect more than 14k hps when including ignore pain. That would mean only pulling about 30k dps?

On kormrok, around 43 mins, even after aoe'ing down the hands most are under 40k. Also checking out Risen Crusaders on warcraft logs I don't see many mythic kills.



I was looking at the numbers and I'm fairly sure some Mythic bosses could be killed with 20 ~ilvl 730+ warriors. If the tanks are pulling 45k dps, then with 20 warriors that's 25.65k hps + whatever they get from ignore pain.

A sample Fel Lord Zakuun fight has our total raid healing at 387,490 hps. 20 warriors with 57% leech from Inspiring Presence and Ignore Pain can easily cover that, it's just a matter of spreading out the damage properly. Which is very hard btw, not meaning to make it sound like it would be easy.

Never meant for this to be an idea for mythic, like I said earlier, I expected this to be viable at 25+, not 14.

Also, in terms of the chains on Gorefiend, that mechanic doesnt target tanks, so I wouldn't expect that to go out on a full prot warrior heroic run, but if it does then yea, it probably is normal.
