I've been playing a nearly identical Build for a few months now on A52. It's super fun. The resets on Divine Storm with Ward of Light are insane. I often end Dungeons with top damage. Though with Riposte in the Build with Imp Riposte, Enveloping Shadows and Setup. Having 100% uptime with Ghostly Strike + Parries giving a Magic Shield and Magic Damage resetting Divine Storm, you just take so little damage.
Ascension wasn't even on my radar of games to play, but seeing your videos appear on my feed I kept watching them and got more interested. starting now from scratch and loving the vids. keep em coming! - Zavahna
You know i've been here for so long now I just realized McDoubles hit almost 44k subs. Time has flown, I appreciate all the hours i've spent here. Truly congrats been here since 23k ish. Hope to see even more content!
Always love the Tank Videos! I remember i saw your Crimson Champion Video and tried to tank because of it and im still doing it :D Keep up the great content! Wrizzla- Alar
Can't wait to come across a wild McDoubles in a LFG one day. I stopped playing WoW at the release of Naxx in Classic. Stumbling across one of your vids a few weeks back re-ignited my WoW bug and I'm loving Ascension! Heallarybuff
Just a quick thing McDoubles. If you have a weapon enchant (like earthliving) on and you are using Consecrated Strikes, the secondary effect where it boosts your physical hits won't proc cause there is already a weapon enchant on your weapon. That's how it functions, you need to have that open for a weapon enchant to be applied. Alda
Tbh with you, I'll not pass of the opportunity to draw Kreg in my art style, I freaking love his sombrero and with the trident I'm confident I can make a cool design .Will be posting the drawing process on my channel. Awesome content as always, keeping filling people with massive enthusiasm to play on Ascension !
I consider myself a upbeat fellow...but I need whatever drug you are on to constantly have that positive energy running at max all the time. In summary; Your awesome man!
As some others have commented, if you wanna revisit flame themed 2h tanking with Kreg then Templar of the Flame is definitely the way to go. Not only does it provide a near constant 8% DR from the RE itself but it also gives you aoe tanking without needing T-clap or Consecrate which gives it a sense of uniqueness. I've considered trying it myself but I'm still too attached to my t-slam 2h tank I've been playing since it came out on Malganis.
The best part about this video is you walked backwards into Consecrated Strikes parry tank, which is one of the best Dungeoning tank specs atm. It trivializes Heroics. You love to see it. IGN: Tradwife
Glad to see tank specs alot of fun these days. I realy like healer specs too, especialy i pvp, makes you more usefull, as long as your defended 😆😆😆😆. Emberflame.
Ive been thinking about playing this game. Is it hard to get into? And realistically how much money would i have to put in for the “necessary” QOL stuff in the store?
I haven't been playing Ascension very long, I'd say roughly 2 months, and I'm just wondering what are the benefits of playing draft as opposed to free pick? I personally feel as though draft holds me back a lot when I'm trying to build/theory craft.
Noice. I agree that a lot of how ascension develops their game does seem to be in the spirit of what the community wants. Helping out tanks with aggro and giving us the lucky cards were a huge boost to my confidence in them. Keep up the great vids! - Roctar Al'ar
Really cool tank build I agree with what you said, the changes they made to tanks makes it a lot easier to do some off meta tank builds for fun. -Dynnamo
I absolutely love this idea! I just rolled a tank myself, making me think I rolled the wrong one haha! Keep up the amazing work, love the vids man! -Tamaraa
I know this is kind of an older video but it would be nice to see your final build int the Character Advancement screen. Im trying to build a 2h parry build. I love your build, though i dont know enough yet for draft so Area52 it is.
Been really enjoying your content, and actually got into the game myself because of your wild build videos :P. Thanks for doin what you do, my man! -- Lynarian
Honestly tanking in Ascension has been the most fun I've had tanking in any WoW version, Demon Hunters in BFA being a close second though. Mana-forged barrier was my main go-to in League 3, but now that its merged with the seasonal realm, I am considering doing a classic crimson champion (I think that's what it was called) tanking build. Might do the mana-forged still on the side since I like the mana being a damage reduction concept. IGN: Meikaku
What if they added a legendary enchant that revolves around earth living weapon, earth shield, dragons breath, and the tame dragon. It could be a black dragon based tank with slight self heals. It could also add a new ability for your dragon pet for a damage mitigation cooldown.
60-70 : 3 ramp runs skipping boses and killing trash till 64 - Mana tombs - do quests > Sethekk halls - do quests 70 - faster then having to do helfire quests :D and trying to do ring of blood - Calibloom
made a metamorph tank using unbound lifedrain on the previous server and it was legit the most fun thing ive played lol Edit: you said guerrero really well at 39:26 honestly lol
You always cheer me up Mcdoubles. I really wish i still had it in me to get as excited about the game as you are hahaha. I really hope to see more of this tank. Maby a normal Karazhan run?
Next spec for Kreg should definitely be a Champion of Justice healer where you heal mainly through instant cast Holy Shocks and Flash of Lights. You can also heal in RF (as long as you take a threat reduction talent) for the Prot Pali talent Divinity.
Fire tank with Templar of Flame is pretty damn amazing. Going with a holy/fire hybrid for tanking is really efficient due to the RE and also the mana regain from judgement of wisdom. Idk whether mana forged barrier or 2h would be better. But please try it out, it's pretty amazing and I've had a lot of fun
I might be mistaken, i haven't played ascension for a long time, but i think the shaman weapon enchantments override the imbue of your legendary enchant. Keep up the good work man
“But I swear to you, if my name wasn’t Kreg I really think someone would’ve told me my mom should’ve died of cancer.” - most relatable wow moment ever spoken
Another great video, and with Kreg no less! I've watched your vids for a long time, but I just started playing Ascension yesterday myself, what would you recommend doing first? Currently I'm just wining it and trying to pick whatever seems best at the time, no regard to MEs since I don't have the choice yet. -Rantallion
Might be a bad idea but what if you do a character and purposefully choose worst ability of the draft every time and then at max level if you can make it. Reroll into the best build you can make.
Liking the different builds! Would love to see some caster ones too. Fingers of death, evoker, maybe fire or arcane build? Ign; Friday on the wildcard realm
I'd like to see you do a spell tank in the form of [Lightning Shield] being used to proc [Purification By Light] Probably best start would be [Lightning Shield], rolling for a seal spell (to roll a judgement, probably [Judgement of Wisdom] would be best for mana), [Righteous Fury] for the magic threat generation, and something else (after seeing this video probably not defensive stance :D ) I think it would work best as a 2H parry/spell tank
Currently Trying out a Lucifur Cat form build, not sure what to think of it really though, on the grind to prestigious, keep up the vids, always cool to see what builds there are Al'ar: Widgey
Theres a Talent in prot pally giving you healing power convertion from strength while righteos defence is active btw.. also for tank mana problems take the one in prot pally giving you Mana when healed, solves everything! - char: keklel
Cant believe I won ;D great stuff/vids love Kreg with the sombrero sorry for the tough name ha. If I win again pass to another lucky contestant but appreciate the gift. 🤙 keep ‘em coming brother.

I have been kind of up and down about your videos, but I really liked this one, thank you for creating more interesting content for Ascension.
ur the reason i started playing ascention - Jackawl
Not sure if anyone pointed it out in the comments but I think weapon enchants like earth living conflict with the 2nd legendary RE's weapon effect. ^^
Dont play Ascension anymore, but love your videos so still watching when you upload, such great energy much love man
40:05 BabyMetal is actually the name of a Japanese metal band
You know i've been here for so long now I just realized McDoubles hit almost 44k subs. Time has flown, I appreciate all the hours i've spent here. Truly congrats been here since 23k ish. Hope to see even more content!

Yes Kreg, top lad. Love seeing your hybrid builds, and seeing you get lucky on the draft for a change -Weathervane

Awesome content as always, keeping filling people with massive enthusiasm to play on Ascension !
Finished the Kreg Design, hope you like it xD
You are amazing, having a blast watching you!
Glad to see some more tank build! Always glad to see a variety of gameplay styles from ya! -Darcblaze
I consider myself a upbeat fellow...but I need whatever drug you are on to constantly have that positive energy running at max all the time. In summary; Your awesome man!
Love the addition of the time stamps.
Kreg is back and hungry for more tanking :D awesome video and keep up the good work - Aesh on al'ar
Yo your content is great and I really appreciate how informative you are on your builds. Can't wait to see what you come up with next. Elliese
The Ballad of Kreg saga continues! Keep up the great work!

Love your videos man, you got me playing again. Keep up the good work my man!

Started playing after binge watching for a couple weeks. I've been addicted to the game ever since. ~Rypheradon

Goggles of Virtue from Sylas, highly recommended to save your framerate in Org or SW. You can probably pull it from your vanity items.
Played ascension literally since the pre-release. I have CoA, grizzly hills - everything.
I had NO idea this existed. Thank you. KEK

Edit: you said guerrero really well at 39:26 honestly lol
Lmao the eugenics of orc running speed vs human running speed has e DYING. i wanna do a dave chappelle, richard pryor inspired comedy bit on that.
You always cheer me up Mcdoubles. I really wish i still had it in me to get as excited about the game as you are hahaha. I really hope to see more of this tank. Maby a normal Karazhan run?
Sombrero L' Kreggo. Keep it up McDoubles - Rudizarsoff
Next spec for Kreg should definitely be a Champion of Justice healer where you heal mainly through instant cast Holy Shocks and Flash of Lights. You can also heal in RF (as long as you take a threat reduction talent) for the Prot Pali talent Divinity.

Kreg is back bois! Glad to see a different take on a tank build. Any others in mind coming soon? - Zathrian on Alar
Kreg is dripped out in Don Carlos' hat for sure
-Gzed

A one hour video.. I need snacks! Here we go boys!

That was a good hour!
I'm loving the mana tank build dude
Champion of Justice scales really good with Righteous fury over Def stance

-soad
hello sir, just small tip ive ancidently found to improve city performance.. equip Goggles of Virtue, its so smooth when everybody is apple XD - Huhwa
Keep’em rolling baby! Tanks are where it’s at!

KREG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you should try more of wind rager, always keep up the great work! love the vids - Roosaa

If you do want to solve mana issues, take Spiritual Attunement in the prot pally tree, dmg reduction and mana restored when healed by another player
Nice video, but I still want to see new casters enchants specs. Looking for a good mage / Shadow Priest spec (Maverix)
man i love tanking and tbh this build seems really clever. -Tanksy
