wrecking throw whats that ?

sharp wyvern
#

if it crits yes

gaunt owl
#

sorry cant hear you with all those CF points

dusty dagger
gaunt owl
#

Wrecking Throw is so bad to take as Arms

wind quiver
gaunt owl
#

we cant make it crit so it feels like ass

sharp wyvern
slow saddle
#

Did they fix frenzy ?

boreal quartz
#

i cba play my other 2 ones

Now that we have Both trees what do you guys think about Colossus? I cant Shake the feeling that Both Hero Talent trees have Major aspects that should already be on the Arms Tree. Overall im Fine with Slayer but Slayers dominance should already be a Part of Fatality so its functional in aoe and Demolish is really just Bladestorm-Unhinged and Overall boring. I would be Fine with Both if all the Arms capstones get some work on them.

sharp wyvern
#

i like both

#

demolish seems weirdly fun

wind quiver
#

Slayer seems both more fun and better

bronze hound
sharp wyvern
#

i mean its not gonna be my choice what i will play its gonna be the tuning

#

but im fine with both playstyles

minor gust
halcyon breach
bronze hound
#

I get that. Im more focused on the Fantasy atm. Maybe thats my issue.

sharp wyvern
#

the only time im gonna be mad is if i have to play mountain thane

#

that shit looks atrocious

wind quiver
#

in terms of fantasy mountain thane seems coolest imo

#

not arms tho ofc

minor gust
#

yeah Fantasy wise Mountain Thane looks great become Thor

dusty dagger
#

as an arena guy i like both Slayer and Colosus but will probably have to go Slayer cause you cant just sit and channel Demolish on a player lmao

sharp wyvern
#

fantasy wont let me get over bad gameplay

obtuse copper
#

I like how Colossus only has 1 talent that relates to the fantasy of being a Colossus and it's a 5% dmg increase

sharp wyvern
#

no 5 % size

obtuse copper
#

Oops

dusty dagger
#

enbiggen

minor gust
#

its vers but not verse

minor gust
obtuse copper
#

Meant to type size

#

Was too busy looking for this

#

If only Warrior had a spell that literally said it turned us into a colossus

#

That the colossus tree could be based off of

sharp wyvern
#

collosus should just make us grey all the time

#

peak fantasy

bronze hound
dusty dagger
#

go attack on titant rules, everytime you go colossol a whole nuke explodes

bronze hound
#

Thats the thing i guess.

sharp wyvern
#

wait why would youn play collosus with BS ?

bronze hound
#

Cs into channel into Channel?

sharp wyvern
#

thas clearly not the intention

#

i think only slayer is gonna use BS

#

imagine making an entire hero talent tree based on BS and then the others use it too

wind quiver
#

surely

#

they're meant to be distinct

bronze hound
#

I agree i dont think Colossus will Play Bs.

#

But then Colossus actually doesnt have a Talent Tree.

shadow ibex
wind quiver
#

well nothing's final

bronze hound
#

The 2 choices Left Are Cleave and Skullsplitter

shadow ibex
zealous basin
#

Holy shit guys

#

The slayer talent tree

sharp wyvern
#

collosus has 7 nodes that can potentially change

dusty dagger
sharp wyvern
zealous basin
#

Im gonna bust

bronze hound
sharp wyvern
#

you dont think colossus is gonna play fatality ?

bronze hound
#

In Single Target probally

sharp wyvern
#

oh

#

i can see how it will use BS and demolish in aoe

#

thats sounds kinda sick

bronze hound
#

Slayer does have some cool interactions with the bs capstones but none of that for Colossus.

sharp wyvern
#

is demolish capped aoe ?

autumn gulch
#

Anyone else feel like we really need to see the war talent changes for war within to accurately assess these hero talents? I just dont know what to think about it

minor gust
#

pretty much

sharp wyvern
#

i dont think they gonna rework the entire tree like other classes

#

only small changes

minor gust
#

Just sayin OP nodes in the Slayer tree don't make sense unless we are getting Legion Tactician back

dusty dagger
bronze hound
#

I Hope They dont stop at the class Tree otherwise i am going to be a Rider of the Apocalypse. At least ill have Friends then.

autumn gulch
dusty dagger
#

fury still gonna have the Enrage + Bladestorm issue

sharp wyvern
#

changing the icon from ravager to BS is huge ?

zealous basin
#

Arms>>>

verbal marten
#

if u actually read

#

iot says op or bt

dusty dagger
autumn gulch
sharp wyvern
#

but it doenst change anything tree wise

#

the only 2 changes that are kinda confirmed is that shockwave will be easier to get and ravanger will be BS again

autumn gulch
#

I mean, aside from the rest of the hero stuff being tied to BT (left side of the tree) and ravager being on the right side... I get what you mean, but i feel like it raises a lot of questions that they keep alluding to but not saying and that makes it hard to decide whether Im excited or not about the stuff they previewed

sharp wyvern
#

i wouldnt get my hopes up for massive talent tree changes since they worked the enirety of DF to figure those out and they made a new talent tree in the middle to not have to balance those again

autumn gulch
#

and yet they did it for like 6 classes already in the same expansion

gaunt owl
#

they have to rework the tree properly

#

both hero tree dont mesh well with what we have

sharp wyvern
#

i think slayer and collosus are gameplay altering enough for it to matter

#

unless you play mountain thane then your fucked

gaunt owl
#

do you want more OP proc when we already proc them all the time ?

minor gust
#

Tactician change

sharp wyvern
#

those CDR talents are not gonna do jack shit

#

idk why you think they are a big deal for OP

gaunt owl
#

you want to reset more OP ?

sharp wyvern
#

we do

dreamy egret
#

so like we get all of these talents ? or is one per row

autumn gulch
#

... the point is that why have them if they are awful as it stands? it implies some sort of change at a base level

dreamy egret
#

you can pummel while bladestorming now

#

POG

sharp wyvern
#

we WANT to be gcd capped as slayer cause the first node

minor gust
#

Tactician resetting CS would make the OP talents make sense

sharp wyvern
#

we want to attac as much as possible

wicked aurora
dreamy egret
#

no more sorry i was bladestorming I couldnt pummel

sharp wyvern
wicked aurora
#

I mean you're assuming that ravager is just completely gone and that it won't be BS or Rav

sharp wyvern
#

like you could just switch out ravager with BS and the tree doesnt change at all

sharp wyvern
#

but i wouldnt call it a huge change in the talent tree

rare helm
#

out of everything on that tree being able to kick and stun during BS is by far the most exciting for me

wicked aurora
#

Sure

#

I'm of the opinion that it won't just be that though

#

There are still some classes that need work done to the talent tree, 11.0 would be a great time for them

sharp wyvern
#

i think they will do something with cap nodes in the basic warr tree cause they said shockwave will move but i realy dont belive they do anything with the class trees

wicked aurora
#

the spec trees have had some pretty vocal issues brought up

gaunt owl
#

they gonna do a big overall

#

cant have Fury get Bladestorm and Ravager

sharp wyvern
#

or*

thick kelp
#

Slayer πŸ‘

gaunt owl
#

they need to delete SMF for good so people stop yapping that shit all the times

wicked aurora
#

it might be copium but hey

#

changes will eventually happen

sharp wyvern
#

fated is warrior rework am i right ?

gaunt owl
#

if they dont rework the tree

#

Arms will always talent fully into Unhinged / Hurricane and Dance of Death

sharp wyvern
#

btw we might not take battle lord if we take BS and hurricane

#

so that will be less OP procs

smoky kayak
#

I mean we already know Arms is getting some reworks, and the amount of emphasis on Bladestorm here implies that it will also be a focus of changes in the spec tree

gaunt owl
#

Battlelord reset MS

#

and apply bleeds when execute time

wicked aurora
gaunt owl
#

its Tactician and Deft Experience that proc OP through the roof

minor gust
#

BS procs procing unhinged would be cool

gaunt owl
wicked aurora
#

the WW spam in keys in between 12 second BS

rare helm
#

as a mbg enjoyer

#

i want that

#

with all my soul

latent moss
#

hurricane dance of death and mbg

wicked aurora
#

I don't think they'd can MBG

gaunt owl
#

Unhinged

#

need to stay

#

IT IS TIME

obtuse copper
#

REAL

latent moss
#

prob a talent choice between unhinged and mbg

dusty dagger
#

A big change would be if they simply hasted BS channel like Outlaw's killing spree

wicked aurora
#

MBG is a nice talent in an environment where it's actually tuned to be a pick

latent moss
#

hurricane js gone for sure

rare helm
#

hasted BS would be crazy

obtuse copper
#

What about Dance of Death guys..

sharp wyvern
#

its gonna be great for tindral

dusty dagger
rare helm
#

nah nah like turbo hasted

#

gimme 1 second full BS

minor gust
#

yes

bronze hound
obtuse copper
#

πŸ’€

obtuse copper
#

Or rather than a spender it could just be a good spell

#

Sks before this season was the closest thing but even that was only 2 target

wicked aurora
rare helm
#

mannn hurricane MBG cleave

#

my beloved

shadow ibex
#

passive sweeping

#

MS is cleave gg

wicked aurora
#

honestly legion SS was bis

obtuse copper
#

They tried with SoS this xpac but

minor gust
#

Legion SS bring it back

obtuse copper
#

Was weird cause the CD is super short and the damage was kinda meh without MBG

regal wharf
#

arms bros... we won

smoky kayak
#

It's a very interesting tree

half vine
#

I get the impression Slayer is an attempt to give better ST dmg in a AoE spec and vice versa....AoE dmg in ST spec

smoky kayak
#

it's exciting in every way that Colossus was not πŸ˜†

obtuse copper
#

At least it delivers on fantasy

regal wharf
#

also as a frost mage lover, the spell slinger tree looks dope

obtuse copper
#

Colossus feels like they had an idea, designed the tree, realized last minute "Oh shit it's called Colossus. Uhhhh let's give them 5% increased size?"

smoky kayak
dusty dagger
smoky kayak
#

I'm sure one of them will end up better or worse in specific situations like that, but it's one thing when that's a matter of tuning and another when it's outright design

half vine
#

Ah, well I guess we will have to wait until Beta goes live to see how it plays

smoky kayak
regal wharf
#

the fact you can use ur interrupts while in bladestorm is reason enough to be excited

#

gonna feel so much better in M+

half vine
#

How about this - Piercing Howl now is a Bloodlust, Dispell, Battle Rez, and Incorporeal disrupter all in 1 button

boreal quartz
#

clueless make intervene a spellbop

regal wharf
smoky kayak
sharp wyvern
half vine
regal wharf
smoky kayak
#

Yeah, but they're still gonna have access to Bladestorm (Mountain Thane for Fury too, presumably)

dusty dagger
smoky kayak
#

exactly

half vine
#

either way, time to balance 100specs in the game. have fun devs

dusty dagger
#

Meanwhile demolish will never be good in pvp as is

regal wharf
obtuse copper
#

I mean let's be realistic, they're gonna balance everything for ST and vaguely for 2-5 targets and let M+ be an unbalanced shitfest as per usual.

regal wharf
gaunt owl
#

if everybody is broken

#

why balance ?

#

like Legion you know

tribal kindle
#

But this time we have bladestworm st

obtuse copper
#

Everyone won't be broken is the issue

#

Look at Boomie with Starfall in recent years

wicked aurora
obtuse copper
#

Only spec that can do good spread mass AoE

regal wharf
#

they really gotta homogenize utility and buffs and shit

#

you barely have any spots in standard raid comp

slow saddle
#

nah

#

never

#

ever do that again

teal fossil
#

i love homogenizing

#

i hate class fnatasy

wind quiver
boreal quartz
#

love being good on 2 cuz arm

smoky kayak
regal wharf
# teal fossil i hate class fnatasy

there's class fantasy, then there's warriors being almost useless on incorporeal, and the way bloodlust is on shaman and mage and no other classes, making them vastly more prefered on M+

smoky kayak
#

like the 2 target arms niche is fine in theory, but how many times does that practically come up each tier? Maybe once, twice if you're lucky, sometimes none at all

gaunt owl
obtuse copper
#

Or some other spec, whether designed to be a good 2t spec is just tuned better and more worth bringing

sharp wyvern
#

fyrak has 2 target cleave on the collosusses

#

for 3 seconds

half vine
smoky kayak
#

meta is almost always defined by performance, not utility

tribal kindle
#

Does any of the hero's talents change your class tree option on Champion's spear vs Devastating roar?

smoky kayak
#

hard maybe for Colossus (given its crit focus), but probably not, no

#

although whatever they end up doing with the base class & spec trees could change that

dusty dagger
#

yeah, still unsure how they'll move around shockwave and/or replace it's nodes with

wind quiver
smoky kayak
#

Oh I agree

#

WoW is an insanely complicated game; even under the best conditions, perfect balance is completely unfeasible

teal fossil
#

the easiest way to allow shockwave is removing 2h spec

sharp wyvern
#

or titanic throw

teal fossil
#

and then make armed to the teeth one pointer

#

idk why titanic throw would matter

dusty dagger
#

hey i use titanic throw farming old content

smoky kayak
#

I mean they already said Shockwave is moving, so I think it's kind of academic at this point, until we see what they have in mind

teal fossil
#

its not blocking anything

sharp wyvern
#

im saying replace it with shockwave and nothing is lost

teal fossil
#

but then you get into the issue of fury having a hard time taking it

sharp wyvern
#

im pretty sure thats a talent thats taken 0% across the board

wind quiver
#

is that used for prog at all tho?

teal fossil
#

because titanic throw requires mandatory TC

sharp wyvern
#

oh true

wind quiver
#

prot *

teal fossil
#

and if you dont play mountain thane

#

you just trolled 2 points

teal fossil
visual fern
#

...size buff

teal fossil
#

but titanic throw isnt meant to be an actual good talent

#

its meant to be a world quest thingy

visual fern
dusty dagger
sharp wyvern
#

choice node with sidearms maybe since concussive blows is also never taken

visual fern
#

Wait does valk also play slayer

teal fossil
#

choice noding side arms is about as much of a dps loss as it is right now

sharp wyvern
#

you cant just have shockwave with not sacrificing something

slow saddle
#

i just want some talent squishes

sharp wyvern
#

else they can jsut put it into the core class skills

slow saddle
#

shouldnt need to spend 2 talent points on chrushing

#

obviously our talent tree's needs some reworks

dusty dagger
#

i mean in m+ you can sac crushing for shockwave

#

never slam in keys anyway

#

and in raid you never shockwave so you can take crushing

slow saddle
#

thats not the point im trying to make though

dusty dagger
slow saddle
#

its more about some talents shouldnt cost 2 points

#

and not being able to have shit we had before

#

like Second wind - shockwave - stun and fear

half vine
slow saddle
#

like once again weve LOST our cc's more than other classes

#

i mean if chrusty force cost 1

#

we just had 1 more talent to put into utility

gaunt owl
#

Chrusty force

#

ahah

magic plinth
#

so guys

#

just for me to udnerstand

#

aoe scenario:

gaunt owl
#

spam execute

#

bladestorm

dusty dagger
minor gust
#

kaching

magic plinth
#

i start with TC for bleeds, do i then warbreaker into bladestorm or bladestorm and then afterwards warbreaker with all cds?

#

like... do i empower bladestorm or do i use the strength from bladestorm to empower my SS window aftewards?

gaunt owl
#

oh current Arms

minor gust
#

Empower the BS in Aoe

gaunt owl
#

you can do a quicksim with 5T

#

its gonna show

dusty dagger
#

i usually TC > WB > WW > BS > SS > MS/EX > WW before hurricane buff ends

gaunt owl
#

but yeah should be warbreaker into BS

safe tundra
minor gust
#

if you run double bladestorm the opener is different than single

remote talon
#

I wish bladestorm would go away, and especially Avatar bladestorm... it's super awkward in general and even more so with the 21 out of 30 seconds sweeping strikes

magic plinth
#

and with warlords torment, do i also use my avatar (reck) ?

dusty dagger
#

i didn't even factor in ava/roar

#

oop

boreal quartz
#

double bs:

magic plinth
#

no i play single bs

boreal quartz
#

charge tc ava -> wb roar stuff bs

#

charge tc wb roar ava ss bs for single bs

hazy flower
boreal quartz
#

fr

dusty dagger
gaunt owl
hazy flower
#

you ss after bs

gaunt owl
#

das Opener

#

le execute is SD

hazy flower
#

if it was 10t

#

you weave in 1 more tc

#

before

#

in fall in the first pull half my gcds are fucking tc

boreal quartz
hazy flower
#

because there are like 30 mobs

boreal quartz
#

i run short so generally after

gaunt owl
#

why would you

#

you gonna get some SD proc soon

hazy flower
#

so many mobs

gaunt owl
#

i dont trust you

hazy flower
#

sd proccs are not enough

gaunt owl
#

you are padder material

hazy flower
#

I am not a padder material

#

I am ethical player

dusty dagger
#

I am padder in Tindral

gaunt owl
#

i know what you mean Myrtu

#

waiting for the pull to be done

minor gust
#

Tindral aint real hes fake

gaunt owl
#

you do some tclap here and there

hazy flower
#

nono in general

#

the pull is so big

#

and it lasts

#

1:45-2mins

#

on 29-30 fortified

dusty dagger
hazy flower
#

you need to keep refreshing and refreshing

#

cant find my log from the 30 fortified but my top damage was rend tr and tclap

#

lol

gaunt owl
#

you always tclap anyway

#

since you need those OP refresh

hazy flower
#

ye

#

I'm uploading some logs maybe I'll find it

bronze hound
#

How much Copium do i need to start believing that Condemn will take Shockwaves Place in the Class Tree? hopium

hexed saddle
#

condemn isnt capstone worthy

bronze hound
#

Thats the reason its missing in Slayer !!

proper garden
#

condemn is bad

dusty dagger
hexed saddle
#

condemn isnt bad with blizzards current boss design

gaunt owl
#

the next guy that mention condemn

#

need a timeout

#

so he can go touch grass and reflect upon his mistakes

dusty dagger
#

Bring back banner

#

Augementation Warr

minor gust
#

Condemned to touch grass

bronze hound
cinder remnant
#

Slayer's Strike may actually have some visual. Even tho its passive from AA

abstract vale
#

surely BS goes in shockwaves place

#

lemme prot spin again

proper garden
bronze hound
dusty dagger
#

Only class hero tree that Slays

#

πŸ’…

nova marsh
#

Wow

#

Both trees are just....just no

minor gust
#

Slayer owns

nova marsh
#

Slayer combing exe and bs? That feels...odd honestly

#

Espically if this is used in raid dear god

#

Also FUCKING REALLY? Sb and pummel in bs

#

THROUGH A TALENT

#

That's the biggest slap in the face I've ever seen

boreal quartz
#

how come

boreal quartz
#

you get what you want

#

through a talent u always get if u take the tree

hybrid bolt
#

We get all points at max level, only choice nodes can be different right

#

Or do we miss out on some at max level?

gaunt owl
#

yes

nova marsh
#

Literally years

#

A talent

#

And oh bs just seems so much worse if u take coll

hybrid bolt
#

I guess i dont really mind that the hero talents are pushing us towards certain builds, like Slayer being more bs oriented than coll

nova marsh
#

I think that's okay. But I still just like....why not baseline

hybrid bolt
#

But agreed, itd be nice to be able to use it baseline

nova marsh
#

Also I can't imagine this rotation in raid

minor gust
#

press execute

#

press BS

nova marsh
#

Throw in bs

minor gust
#

whats confusing here

nova marsh
#

It just seems like adding yet even more conflicting priorities

hybrid bolt
#

Pressing bladestorm during execute phase feels weird doesn't it?

minor gust
#

BS channel duration is much shorter

#

thanks to one of the nodes

gaunt owl
minor gust
#

nvm

thick kelp
#

we havnt even seen the reworked arms tree yall its gonna be good copium

hybrid bolt
#

Frenetic fury gives you the quick bs

gaunt owl
#

there is just so much that we need the alpha to test

hybrid bolt
#

I imagine raid build for Slayer might not even take BS? And you just Frenetic Flurry whenever as a cool bonus

thick kelp
#

godbless alpha release before s4

nova marsh
#

That sounds horrible

minor gust
#

Either way nothing wrong with pressing BS in ST aslong as its worth pressing

nova marsh
#

Like with how much we use op even at a low chance I still think it'd be pressed a lot

hybrid bolt
#

True

nova marsh
#

procced

kind saffron
#

i hope BS is passive (like archi says in his post) or cancellable again, because it might be a nonstarter if I squeeze a GCD out and can't leap out of a mechanic because i highrolled a bladestorm (i understand you can just not hit OP in these cases but that's not as fun imho)

hybrid bolt
#

It seems like as is, you press bladestorm for the full channel right before execute phase begins to get the overwhelming blades bonus going into it

minor gust
#

obviously yeah purely passive would be much better so hoping for that

kind saffron
#

😍 it does say that, you are right. that would be fantastic then (esp since the other thing says if you get more, it doenst change duration. so if it applies to frenetic, it would apply in the same principle, prob?)

nova marsh
#

Tbh I'm still iffy on it

#

Looking at the SB and pummel cast feels more like blizz realizing it'd be a huge problem with random bses likely and just fixed it with that, which is good

#

That would be godawfuk

kind saffron
#

just gotta wait for alpha i suppose, i'm a fan of the general movement toward giving arms more aoe damage profile. i think the skill floor goes down a tiny bit but it's an easy trade since accessible, more flexible m+ damage profile is wonderful

minor gust
#

dont think to much on it talent tree changes are coming so you cant really give an opinion until we see those changes

kind saffron
#

^+1

minor gust
#

My guess is BS is going into the class tree for fury and arms

dusty dagger
#

Slayer needs something to make it visually different though

nova marsh
#

As for what the follow on talents for arms would look like after that, who knows

minor gust
#

yee

#

because to me all the OP nodes in the Slayer tree make no sense unless something like tactician is changing

#

Legion tactician coming back

nova marsh
#

The issue there is questions about coll then

#

And how fast we'd be able to build up stacks and do cdr on demolish

strange perch
#

ngl with the amount of OP talents in slayer they might as well just make it replace MS

nova marsh
#

No

gaunt owl
#

thats what they doing since 10.0.5

#

we are basically doing OP > MS anyway

strange perch
#

im psure OP does more dmg than unbuffed MS with dreadnaught line included

nova marsh
#

It absolutely does

latent moss
#

its in spec

minor gust
#

where?

#

sauce

gaunt owl
#

cant trust blizzard

#

source

#

i made it the fuck up

dusty dagger
nova marsh
#

I mean this is pre alpha shit

#

For all we know slayer could get reworked into a pure st talent tree by August

strange perch
#

it doesnt matter all I see is the warrior developer smoking crack

minor gust
gaunt owl
nova marsh
#

We already knew that

dusty dagger
strange perch
#

bro did not stop hitting the pipe all throughout DF

#

and he's still doing it

nova marsh
visual fern
#

Slayer tree design is the most exciting thing I've seen for warrior design since nyalotha

#

Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

nova marsh
#

Tbh after seeing it

#

I'd rather use coll

dusty dagger
#

You just wanna be 5% bigger

#

admit it

strange perch
#

ah frenzy + tunnel vision looks like a fun thing

minor gust
#

atleast Slayer tree has some actual tought put into it unlike colossus tree being all boring % nodes

hazy flower
# strange perch

it looks like dog and I'm very curious about the implementation of this

strange perch
#

no more tab targeting ms to spread deep wounds cus dps loss

#

god bless frenzy for arms

visual fern
#

You don't have mouseover MS macro?

strange perch
boreal quartz
visual fern
#

I've had it since nyalotha

gaunt owl
#

have you heard about the mouseover macro ?

visual fern
#

Where I realized arms was a dot spec

nova marsh
#

Yeah basically

dusty dagger
visual fern
#

Nah I enjoyed it

nova marsh
#

If only we got a rework with proper direction

visual fern
#

Was something different

#

Than what we had for the next 4 years

slow saddle
#

Does sound like slayer is stronger on fury. Also doesnt sound like u can use rotation. Only ccs

boreal quartz
#

bs is still bs

nova marsh
#

It probally would be

strange perch
#

holy shit are we finally gonna spec into unhinged

slow saddle
#

I mean it says

#

Hits em once

#

Not spin like a god

nova marsh
slow saddle

Sounds like a ww almostπŸ˜…

strange perch
nova marsh
#

If you use slayer and bs in raid keks

slow saddle

I would love that🀣

Exexute prowes ftw

My other issue with slayer

Is in a large regard it feels more focused on bs and op then execute

strange perch
#

execute increases the dmg of ur next OP by 35% man

slow saddle
#

Obviously we would need bladestorm moved a lot

serene hollow
#

Prayge for cooks on the arms bladestorm capstones to make them more appealing in single target

slow saddle
#

Else its just slayer m+

#

Col raid

#

Which i guess would also be ok

nova marsh
#

Actually that's an issue with both

#

Why so many filler buffs

grand idol
nova marsh
#

Like dosent coll ALSO have an op damage buff?

gaunt owl
nova marsh
#

People say it both ways πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

gaunt owl
#

there is one L

serene hollow
#

Nah I don't want ravager, I want arms warrior convoke cooked into bladestorm. Not the 2 mortal strike crap

nova marsh
#

I'm tired lol but like....

#

Do we REALLY need more OP damage from anywhere?

#

It's already overtuned to fuck and back and wayyyy overly important as is

dusty dagger
#

Can i ask, why did they decide to re-describe what sudden death does in this talent.

gaunt owl
nova marsh
#

They did the exact same thing for our 2pc irrc

nova marsh
dusty dagger
smoky kayak
#

they could have just said "increase the proc rate of Sudden Death"

dusty dagger
#

right?

nova marsh
#

And then someone new is like "wtf is sudden death"

#

because it's a passive

smoky kayak
#

but repeating what Sudden Death does means people don't need to go back and look up what Sudden Death does

#

e.g. clarity

#

it's certainly redundant, but not exactly harmful, so πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

visual fern
smoky kayak
#

a very general rule in technical writing is not to repeat definitions inside the same work, but to repeat them in separate works

visual fern
#

Gottem

hazy flower
#

delete ms

#

make OP one and OP two

nova marsh
#

Ah yes

dusty dagger
hazy flower
#

so we can roleplay fury

smoky kayak
#

so, applying that concept to WoW means if Sudden Death is defined in the spec tree (in the talent), it probably doesn't need to be re-defined if it's mentioned a second time within the spec tree

nova marsh
#

Delete one of the most defining abilities for arms, what are we gonna do next, delete rampage for fury and delete Templar's verdict for ret? lol

strange perch
nova marsh
smoky kayak
#

but if Sudden Death is referenced again in a tier set bonus or something separate from the class tree, it's a good idea to redefine it so that you don't have to navigate away from what you're looking at in order to refamiliarize the term

nova marsh
#

Why is MS suddenly a crime against humanity?

strange perch
#

cause i stack my EP and my OP for it to not crit

smoky kayak
#

again, that's a very broad and general concept, normally applied more to like... paragraphs and chapters of a technical manual than game systems like WoW, but it's all the same kind of idea

gaunt owl
#

they are bringing back the real OP

#

the one that crit

nova marsh
#

....Your point?

gaunt owl
#

and nuke the rogue

dusty dagger
minor gust
#

Legion Tactician

dusty dagger
nova marsh
#

Tbh I just wonna know if they're....actually gonna rework arms

gaunt owl
nova marsh
#

Like I'm more interested in that then the hero talents

minor gust
#

they can really nuke the proc chance

smoky kayak
minor gust
#

Remove ToM and give legion Tactician

nova marsh
#

I honestly think blizz should announce some tentative class changes after hero talents are done

thorny laurel
#

So I guess the arms class identity is channeled melee attacks now? Both hero trees focus on them

slow saddle
#

I mean 1 is st 1 is aoe

#

Also making bs potentially viable on st is nice

nova marsh
#

Why is arms getting channel after channel? Like....seriously what the fuck

boreal quartz
#

love not playing the game

nova marsh
#

I just think blizz should be more....idk, creative? I honestly would've preffered

minor gust
#

Some ppl do want slower arms and do nothing but channeling does slow it down

nova marsh
#

If they buffed the base damage of MS and made Collusus revolve around fucking MASSIVE hits

slow saddle
#

Channel sounds cool ngl

nova marsh
wind quiver
#

just amping MS does sound very creative

slow saddle
#

If its strong enough is cool

nova marsh
#

I just want it to not be close to as spammy as fury.

#

Channels just mean "lmao you don't get to play the game"

slow saddle
#

If its hast3d we gucci man

gaunt owl
#

depending on your buff

exotic kestrel
#

Am i misreading (read pretty Quick) or is slayer pretty underwhelming outside of charge movespeed and interrupting while bladestorming ?

worldly kernel
#

I mean arms was unchanged until wotlk then cata came out with CS which pretty much was a bandaid for removing arp and it slowly turned into damage window In CS which is nice because the buttons felt meaningful to press. I think it’s become too complex to where people wanna over complicate specs or they plain just don’t know what they want

minor gust
#

No MS crits in cds make me want to buy rope

gaunt owl
nova marsh
#

I'm....honestly dissapointed in both trees and more interested in base changes

#

Because warrior, espically arms, really needs them

exotic kestrel
#

Idk it feels like colossus atleast has the potential to be rly cool, slayer to me just seems like "meh thats nice i guess"

exotic kestrel
#

Again the pummel and storm bolt while bladestorming is very cool

#

Maybe i was just overhyped fot slayer

nova marsh
#

Tbh if Colosuss just let you move during the channel and maybe had some SS talents and the size increase was 10% it'd be perfect

worldly kernel
#

IMO the big change I would want to see is remove damage modifier to op-> Ms and make MS hit harder so it feels good to press ms

exotic kestrel
#

If i can go "fuck yeah" everytime i press demollish im happy

nova marsh
#

I think OP needs to be moved into a just "press when ur out of rage" filler again

#

Instead of being....the second most important ability in the whole rotation...

gaunt owl
#

the point of Slayer is more SD proc thats gonna feed your Bladestorm CDR and its gonna fuel more dmg

nova marsh
#

Okay maybe third

nova marsh
#

Also could mean BS evrey pull in keys?

#

That actually sounds decently neat

worldly kernel
#

Honestly the slayer tree could have been worse o said the same thing about arms going into DF and I was content with it and had fun

#

Also they could change things based off of feedback

nova marsh
#

I really hope they do

#

Like I said, if Collsusus just had some changes like being able to move and treating demolish like Fists of fury, it'd be great

worldly kernel
#

But I agree base changes need to happen fundamentally for the spec to feel better to play BUT again I will always say this I’m thankful that this spec which I’ve enjoyed for over a decade is playable in all forms of content and not completey garbage

exotic kestrel
#

Maybe once i get my hands on slayer it feels rly good (im completely disregarding power ofc)

nova marsh
#

Arms being mediocore at best is actually good ngl

visual fern
#

Slayer tree enables execute (we are the original execute class, no?) to interact with every part of our kit

nova marsh
#

At least we aren't survival

visual fern
#

I don't see how that's a bad thing

nova marsh
#

I mean from that perspective that's not a bad idea

#

Also it dosen't really interact with MS, but Collusus already does heavily sooooo πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

visual fern
#

EP > MS is baseline

#

πŸ“ˆ

nova marsh
#

Well yeah that's true

gaunt owl
#

give back EP 75%

#

easy fix

visual fern
#

TRUE

nova marsh
#

But I meant, aside from that, the tree itself in a vaccum dosen't interact with it

#

Make EP 200%

#

Make it nuts

#

I honestly don't really care, I just want the base EP rotation to be standard

#

Instead of....whatever the hell ToM has caused

minor gust
#

and so here I was pressing execute for the 17th time

exotic kestrel
#

Fuck ToM

#

Reading it again maybe it is actually kinda pog

nova marsh
#

Actually slayer giving more SD kinda leads to the same problem as current 4pc

#

Depends on how much, but still a thing

minor gust
#

Just remove Tom and a lot of problems go away

nova marsh
#

But....that assumes ToM survives

#

And I really hope it fucking dosen't

gaunt owl
#

TOM needs to die

#

to be buried for good

visual fern
#

Bring back nya TOM

nova marsh
#

no

#

Just kill the entire concept please

#

Flat damage curves are fucking awful

visual fern
#

Dw

#

Nya tom wasn't a curve

#

It was a straight line up

nova marsh
#

I just don't think ToM is, in arms's current state, worthy of iteration atm

#

Just let it go

visual fern
exotic kestrel
#

At the very least SD needs to contribute to ToM again

nova marsh
#

No

#

Just take it out please. ToM isn't even interesting as an idea

latent moss
#

current rotation

#

has to do with ms not doing shit

#

if ms actually did damage sure

Slay Queen

nova marsh
#

Like damn bro

latent moss
#

leading to this rotation

#

is what i meant

nova marsh
#

I know that

#

What I was saying is that the problem is more so how many free abilities arms gets

#

I wasn't pointing at MS at all

tulip garden
#

its so bad bro wtf...it gives us MORE RAGE...it makes us BLADESTORM MORE...it makes us OVERCAP...and it DOESNT INTERACT with TEST OF MIGHT....and we have to press OVERPOWER

#

bro im genuinely tweaking

nova marsh
#

Please remove Test of Might

#

Like please

tulip garden
#

please remove overpower

nova marsh
#

Just throw it in the trash where it belongs

#

Overpower just needs to be brought down not removed

#

God yall just wonna remove Arms at this point

tulip garden
#

i want to remove parasitic BFA design arms

zealous basin
#

that is actually true

minor gust
#

Talent changes are coming for the spec tree

nova marsh
#

Complaining it dosen't interact with ToM

#

When evreyone just wants it removed anyways keks

gaunt owl
nova marsh
#

Okay let's remove any and all abilities that don't cost rage for arms

#

And make evreything else cost 40 keks

#

Remove reck from arms

#

No more rage cap talents

tulip garden
#

i hate ToM, but if they're going to keep ToM then they need to go all in with it or else we're playing a shitty combination of two specs that dont interact with each other at all

tulip garden
#

i know

nova marsh
#

And tbh we still DON'T KNOW if they are

tulip garden
#

they're just making it even worse

gaunt owl
#

they gonna rework

nova marsh
#

Yeah like I think taking these trees

#

and applying them to arms's current state

#

Is just a bad idea. There is no shot we don't see large sweeping changes

covert badge
#

does intervene work 2nd boss brh to get a glaive?

nova marsh
#

We're just circling back around to hey blizzard where's the alpha

minor gust
#

yee the hero trees are made with future spec tree changes in mind

#

not current trees

nova marsh
#

yeah blizz made that really clear with how many changes the class tree alone has announced

zealous basin
#

I just need SLAYER talent tree

sadly someone (not warrior because warriors are perfect) fucked up on 3rd boss and we had a wipe

#

but we had like 7 mins left for 1 trash pack and last boss

nova marsh
#

But I mean....at least alpha's soon right?

#

RIGHT??

ornate eagle
nova marsh
#

I mean, if 10.2.6 is out

#

and they said several weeks

#

Assuming under a month wait to be generous lol

#

Alpha should be announced like in 2 weeks

minor gust
#

end of march or begining of April for alpha hopefully

gaunt owl
#

wait you guys didnt receive your invite already ?

nova marsh
#

So

#

How's demolish in alpha keks

gaunt owl
nova marsh
#

Sir from the future

#

What's the raid like LOL

gaunt owl
#

everything is bland and boring

#

thats why i'm chatting in discord

nova marsh

So basically

#

Normal launch stuff

#

Gotcha

minor gust

Imagine ever recieving a beta inv couldnt be me

you can literally buy this one

minor gust

oh true

smoky kayak

#

I just remember the only time I ever received a beta inv was for BFA because I won one from a twitter promo by Blizzard but because I never use twitter because twitter is dumb I completely forgot I even entered the contest. I didnt even realize I won a key till like SL

smoky kayak
#

that's why they gave it to you there

#

so you wouldn't know you're actually blacklisted - no alpha for you!

PUMMEL WHILE BLADESTORMING

gaunt owl

i got DF beta

#

and used it just to speedrun lvling

#

when its so useless

pulsar summit
#

i had wotlk and cata.

#

playing dk early was tight

neon spruce
#

Did they mention how many hero talents we're getting even to pick? 10?

pulsar summit
#

i believe all of them

gaunt owl
#

all of them

astral yarrow
#

beta is mostly just a novelty unless you actually make content or somehow enjoy playing a not working version of what you are gonna play the next 2 years

pulsar summit
#

only need to worry about choice talents

neon spruce
#

I kinda dislike that, can then just be a passive acquisiton imho since it is not a choice πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

nova marsh
#

They basically are?

exotic kestrel
#

Getting all is good

pulsar summit
#

in the end a large majority of us pick the meta talents anyway

nova marsh
#

I think all is good because it lets them design these as cohesive talents

#

That work together

exotic kestrel
#

Imagine having to skip charge movementspeed coz other node gives 1%dmg

nova marsh
#

Without having "Oh hey you can take these but not this lol get fuckkked xdxdxd"

exotic kestrel
#

Yeh

nova marsh
#

Like if these were designed as normal trees they'd be awful

smoky kayak
#

punctuated by occasional updates that remain exciting for about 5 minutes

#

then you go back to "ok wait for next week the new bugs that popped up"

nova marsh
#

I don't actually want alpha/beta, I just want to see how these actually work in execution

smoky kayak
#

Yeah, the first alpha build(s) will be the most exciting for that reason

nova marsh
#

And also to give blizz feedback about what needs to change

smoky kayak
#

then it'll be ok "ok, release when?"

nova marsh
#

Instead of us just looking at them as basic concepts and needing like 20 clarifactions to get a decent picture of what it actually does

smoky kayak
#

the feedback does matter, they really do read a lot more than most people think

#

but it is still kinda like screaming into the void, not knowing if you'll be heard (much less agreed with)

nova marsh
#

Tbh I feel like blizz should've done hero talents like how ffxiv does animation trailers evrey xpack

#

Just realese them slowly and show off the abilities, animations, and give in-game examples of what they do. Granted....that boldly assumes blizzard even HAS working gameplay prototypes of these

smoky kayak
#

they've done that at times, but in this case I actually do believe they want to get the concepts out there and get feedback before all that stuff is set

#

like imagine if they showed off the fully working prototype of oracle, and then said "sorry too late to change it" because they already dedicated to all the flashy animations and everything

nova marsh
#

or Lightsmith

#

Jesus christ THAT would've been awful

smoky kayak
#

We'll see how well they act on it, but I'm pretty happy with their follow up to community feedback so far

#

if that means I gotta wait longer to see these things in action, eh, I'm ok with it

nova marsh
#

I do also gotta worry again about delays

smoky kayak
#

true, been a lot of those going around the industry

#

idk if there was a major game released last year that didn't have a delay of one form or another lol

nova marsh
#

espically because like....a good amount of these have either mixed or completely negative reactions (Oracle and light smith in particular)

minor gust
#

Delays are usually a good thing tbh but you could argue cuz wow is a monthly cost delays could feel bad

nova marsh
#

Honestly all the hero talents seem VERY rough around the edges

#

And they're....basically all we've gotten in terms of information on TWW

minor gust
#

First iteration they will all see a second pass is my guess

smoky kayak
#

well they are concepts for a reason

nova marsh
#

Yeah, because if they threw Lightsmith in the game randomly

#

That would not go over well

smoky kayak
#

idk, I can't really find the reasoning to begrudge an early look looking rough, when we've repeatedly asked them to show us things earlier in order to get feedback out sooner

#

it doesn't really work both ways

#

idc how rough it looks now, only what it looks like by the time its live - we won't know until we get there, but if this early paper concept has even the potential to help polish that final product, I'm pretty happy

#

the original Warrior DF talent trees were also really rough, but they actually turned out pretty good and way better than those first looks - credit where credit is due, the devs took a lot of the feedback to heart

bronze hound
smoky kayak
#

usually the forums; if it's specific to the hero spec then in that spec thread; otherwise the class forum or whatever is most appropriate

bronze hound
#

πŸ‘πŸΌ

smoky kayak
#

Twitter is way too spammed to be of any real use unless someone happens to be monitoring it when you actually post it

#

and idk if they even use the WarcraftDevs account anymore lol

nova marsh
#

Considering their last tweet was in september of last year?

#

Probally not lol

bronze hound
#

I thought so too but saw some Creators tweet @ that account recently.

nova marsh
#

There've been a shitton of tweets at them

bronze hound
#

Gave me the impressions that they know devs check it. Maybe not.

nova marsh
#

They don't lol

#

They just want someone to ping I think honestly

#

Like

#

Their last tweet was about kickbots

more so than forums, and harder to navigate as well

also this is heroic so a lot of other 489 parses are either sales kills or ultra stacked lego run
