wasnt fury dogshit at it
yes
nah arms was definitely top dog at lords
pretty sure it was awfully bad
you just needed to learn the FOB collat tech
after the buffs yes
nah it was good in rwf
just had to follow the Critcake video on that
revvez was topping as fury on fights fury was low mid
i wish we still had some cool tech to do big dmg like this
frost was better though
wtf revvez below
but arms was definitely #2 #3
yeah Frost and Survival
survival tierset was
was big
not sure if they even had Gavel for this fight
because Gavel with right proc was turbo blasting
die gavel die
but prog was long as fuck
oh yeha true
was 4 weeks RWF
yeah so you couldnt even get gavel until week 2
probably took another week to sim it properly
gapped 
(until it got outscaled)
gimme back omegagiga rally
Man I miss that so much
I always picked it for raid, my cowarrior didn’t
So mine was assigned to the more important bits
Made me feel special

but it had a low pick rate
no one would pick such a talent
What’s interesting with sepulcher is that it predominantly killed mid-to late CE guilds, while DF killed off a bunch of top 10 guilds
esp not the same tier as a fight like rashok
Echo and Liquid are killing Top10 guilds 
True
hate those guys
and then you have the retirment home Instant Dollars
The real blame should fall on the game director waging a holy war on his core playerbase
have been for years lol
its because he is balding
what happened i been raid logging fryak prog
besides colossus root 
Private auras, tindral
private aura is the stupidest idea they introduced this xpac
when they do some mechanic that are impossible to deal with WA
1 seconds to assign 5 player in their corner
they forgot what made Mekkatorque mechanic a good one with the 3 robots
yea that was ap good fight ngl
we were so good with my guild at doing this mekkanic
it took us less than 5 seconds after
1 guy call 2 other
and one of the 2 call the first caller
i was MM hunter main so i was greedy and killed the raid thrice
i was gonna get benched if i did it again
yea now that i really remember that fight had a fuck ton goin on
classic dmg breakdown
this is from SL
maybe garrosh is built different
theres no way hes not at least 20 levels under you
gonna check on trashmob
it was with my lvl 53 old ass warrior
mobs are lvl 36 in SoO
but it was mythic diff
but here it says its 3 levels
yep boss lvl
I'm not actually sure how old expac bosses work anymore after all the squishes and stuff, but I vaguely recall boss level mobs always being considered +3 over the player for purposes of combat table rolls
so its probably still the static 15% parry then
players have a 3% base chance to parry, if that's what you mean
i mean boss has 15% to parry players
should be 0
nowhere near that high, I think it's only 3% for bosses?
I think it was like 14% in classic? but you could mitigate that with weapon skill
idk exactly, I haven't looked into it in ages, I just know its an annoying mechanic that doesn't serve any practical purpose or need to exist in PvE anymore
idk, but "random bullshit" sounds about right to me
Expertise later on
same difference, yeah
Wow suffers from having old mechanics mixed to new ones, always has
I guess on a technical level; its >14% until you max weapon skill and then its mitigated further by expertise? but semantics
Expertise reduced* chances to be dodged/parried/blocked and idk what else, but something along those line
I had
x3 sds as x3 globals in a row
on one of the pulls ydya
all 3 parried
💢
I was madge
yeah, it was added in TBC as basically a replacement for bonus weapon skill in vanilla
and it somehow consume the SD proc too sometimes
this is absofuckinlutely true though; wow is such a hodgepodge jenga of old design decisions stacked atop one another

👏
so keylvl was 27 right @hazy flower
you can do a 27 with friends as a treat
20
ok dps meter unrelated
noobs
inv me for that key btw
we gonna reflect yazma to death
3min kill
3 fury warriors go
I got
3 dps slots
filled
made a team on tuesday
but no reflect
btw
went 29 today
people aped a bit so we wiped on yazma
and then ret left because 4:30 is not enough for yazma
he doesnt know
he lacks critical information
yikes
Lol
If you can't do +35s are you even playing wow
the only 35s im getting are my parses 😎
Actual skill issue
nah im just a 4% aura buff away from 100s, i can feel it
thats super true
unfortunately
it doesnt fully decline
rio hell
there is absolute DOGS
skill wise and player wise
thinking theyre gods gift to the game
If i timed a 27 it means everyone can time that
same tbh
As i was dogshit awful in sl
very iirc
Went up to 35 if jy
ye but that was jy
Nah in prepatch was fake as fuck
so not that high tbf like 23-24 no?
:xdd:
man i would no life m+ if i had a full group and didnt have to pug a fucking healer
It's basically a 23,5 at best
that doesnt heal a tank for 10 seconds straight
But it was streets
so like tot halfway through week 1
because then it was nerfed
nah i did tott week 1
I only tried the nerfed version at all, even in a 13
unironically i think streets is worse
not even on warr :xd:
and 27-23wcm deplete was a nail in the coffin for me
this season
idk
ngl fury also ruined it
for me
spec is INSANELY unfun
in m+
its literally a haha cant die meme
does nothing just doesnt die
haha guys look im fullhealing myself every 2nd global for 8 seconds!
im sure something can kill me
and the gameplay is straight ass this season
arms with pug heals was a traumatizing experience
rotting to 50k rot
xdd
ngl I havent played arms in sub 28 for a while
outside of 1 or 2 meme keys with meme builds
it's too easy to carry the group as tank
that if I want to up my key I would be trolling if I decided to pug as arms instead of prot
you mean that tank got skill issue ?
I mean I suck as tank but
still better than pug tanks
that decide to do random shit
or flop at random moments
vdhs dying on 2nd boss in wcm on fortified is like

No, its dead just leave it be

look what they did to my boy
They took away IP
Wait they took away IP completely in PTR?
MBG is bugged tho, hurting overall a lot
No
Yes it is
What's bugged about it?
Was there anything specific u wanted to know?
It doesnt work at all
Wait is that the same on live?
Coz I noticed that I wasn't getting the buff after BS ended
AOE is insanely strong (when we get MBG) ST is wack on double bs
The other build is okay ish st still good aoe
Is MBG working on live? Are you supposed to get a buff? Coz I don't see anything
No
oh my, it doesn't work on Live?
Its broken on PTR and live
😬
Bugged since the patch
good

die mbg die
I play Juggernaut anyway lol
I just wish Cleave was good. I loved pressing that button
single bs / jugg
I'm running Jugg with Fatality. It's workign quite well this week
I'm going full prio/st in my jugg build this week. Can't stop me
Drop 1 point BB for Fatality. Sims better, performs better in live
cause we had spriest ret and they did all the aoe
legit we were overkilling packs so hard it was insane
@gaunt owl hidden cook last season was tom bi sks
It’ll be fixed by S4
it was soooo good but no one played it
And this week, running single BS packs die before I have time to ramp my damage
i mean thats a key issue
okay yeah
stop doing 20's with 490 ilvl
I'm not
24-26s It's just there's no point running AOE talents this week when bosses are clearly the bigger issue
I may be alone in this discord with this, but I genuinely do not care what my overall looks like. I just care that I see +5 score after each key
u are not alone
i was almost always lowest on the overall with tom bi last season but the damage that mattered i was top always
and i enjoyed it tbh
in keys where we needed aoe i played fury
or wb sks arms
until they decided to gut sks
Nothing wrong with that; better to know why you’re doin what you’re doing instead of blindly following others
That’s why things like discord exist, to discuss those ideas
Exactly this. I use this discord as a place to riff off ideas that I have to see where I can improve my overall gameplay. Whereas a lot of players here only care about getting the 100 parse, which is fair but it's just not what I care about personally
My idea is fuck Fatality i hate this garbo talent 
Good thing there are a lot of valuable discussions going on in here, such as what the most optimal stats should be like 
Real
80/10/0/0
2bb is too strong overall
AAAAAA
lol i love this graph
Bear in mind it's fury and idk if it's s3 or s4 
i would do the one when im below but i dont have the gif
btw to keep prio dmg
one of the best thing to do is to go for Strength of Arms
instead of fatality
Fair and balanced talent
40% buff is crazy
ye
fatality poorly scales in keys
and in pure st it's not that much above bb iirc?
yes and no !
it should always be about the same % of your dmg in a fight
but yeah BB is probably far more valuable even in ST
how close is non tom fatality to 2bb
depend on the size of TOM
^
it +/- is always the same
unless u know
you have specific fight that starts at 50%
or your group dies when you get into execute
but in normal groups and on normal bosses its % is similar always
provided you're not playing with tom
its ST dont look at numbers its with PTR gear
its with next tier set
ah
because rend ye
on Dslice its dead even
@teal fossil mentioned this issue
that it assumed you will execute every single target
to consume the stacks
in aoe it's only a gain on 1 to 2 targets realistically
The amount of effort for 0.1% is painful
first one i did ST
not even effort
it's straight up a dungeon time loss
but yeah its clearly horse shit to snipe those Fatal stack
and clearly a loss in real scenario
Yeah it’s messed up
I never understood how this shit worked
it was secretly the BIS in S1
if it was 30%
it could actually be worthwile
in keys
before they did the stupid 10.0.5 OP buff
anyone have a wa for suddend eath procs?
on the tier set
i keep ignoring them since i was playing fury and i barely pressed exe during cds
you can just use the template function in WAs to make that since its just a trigger off a buff getting applied to you
its maybe 4 or 5 clicks to make yourself
which is why im suggesting templates
Got my legendary today and Im not even happy. Just glad this is over

so its there any news can we use a dinar to purchase the upgrade token for legendary or is it a drop that we are going to get fucked over with ?
that typically means there's a patch
i have it too though
so update soon may be?
Should be, the test period for M+ hasn't ended so likely an update
Hi guys, quick question: if you filter mythic smolderon to the 95th percentile for warriors, arms and fury are pretty equal in damage. But the top 100 leaderboards for DPS war heavily favor fury. Is that because of the popularity of the spec or is arms harder to parse on that fight?
there we go. patch is downloading.
Greetings yall.. i have a strange question, why does wowhead show five pieces of tier being the best for raid setup? is it a situation where you sim it yourself?
Generally speaking all the stats are interchangeable at the highest gear levels.
ahh ok, ty Raggu
i mean arms is always gonna favor crit and haste until diminishing returns, so thats not really true
you cant just throw all the crit into vers and get the same result
yea, but he was asking ab out specifically tier
So on those 5 spots. Assuming youre keeping 4 piece. its essentially interchangeable
sounds good, ty
it was strong af in P1, but nobody wanted to use it 😦
the dragon whelp thing also ended up strong but I had zero desire to mess with it
it'll be fixed by S4
didnt it take a few months before people even understood how it worked?
Yeah, because of the whole training thing, and even then it was still pretty obscure
jfc 8k haste and my sims still want more
yeah that's fair. i was hoping to see it on the PTS
Arms owns

can check casts
that's about it
when you used cs and how many abilities + how much they cost
It was good in s1 because we lacked haste
🫡
not only haste dude secret ninjutsu SKS pewpew
Idk you might be omega lucky (or unlucky) and find people who are looking for stand-ins for prog in the LFG
Which like
Can go many ways
i had dragon whelp thingy and it sadly was too random with the training too when it was known how it works
Idk haste proc has to be large Af to be worth innit
why is PTR down
Buffing Fury 

Fury needs more than a buff at this point in s2
Need to 2x the set bonus damage amp and buff rampage 400%




Can i still drop fyralath from normal or lfr if i already did hc the week?
ready for 100 parse to have so many lucky proc
nope
can anyone answer me why fatal mark does less damage than what is says when it is a dot?
armor bro
ty
its not a dot
it is a debuf frfr
Its a bigass execute
we hate it
Still havent picked the vault but im gonna grab a socket

imagine not having 20 socket in reserve

Fatality should have armor penetration. Kind of dumb that the damage is reduced by armor.
Fuck tom!!! Im gay!! Im gay!!
you don't need lego to get 3k io
that's just my disappoint mark on my dps
you can be 3k io ez while dealing same dps as tankl
you only need to play good
you dont need to play good
This reminds me
And when I was gonna tank my wm 25
And I forced ppaww to come (3k io)
Also invited some 3.2 pug war that didnt want to play because he was afraid it wasnt gonna be 2chested with ppaww being only 3k io
💀
Grey logging mf judging people
lol
paw famously grey logger
And I whispered him
That ppaww is logging 98 vs his grey parses on mythic
And the guy ignored me
💀
people dont like seeing their logs
cant help them
from alcohol fetal syndrome
Its the rio hell anda mentioned yday
they use RIO has an absolute perfect full proof metric
We having the discussion of:
"Why they not invite me? I am good enough" and then "Well, because there are other better options than yourself", finally something like "I deserve a chance, I dont want to do my own key or make friends. Invite me reeeee!"
?
Mf is full on chatgpt today
its awful
Gonna give Arms increased melee range on abilities but not autos 🙃
PTR up ?
🤣 we have enough rage
overpower doesn't cost anything 
Give us a new talent that gives us +5yd range when using polearms, old sword and axe specializations when using swords or axes, and a chance to reduce enemy armor by x% when using maces. Call it master of arms. 

ppl dont think things through
Yup, a filler/secondary ability shouldn't be that strong or common.
People hate on slam. There was a time when slam felt great to press
slam increases the damage of your next mortal strike by 20% stacks up to 3 times 
😁
boiz any advice ?
get gear
ps gonna change the neck to the crafted one to 486
do more m+/raid
push MS more
where ptr 
on wowhead was a articel some weapons recollors somebody know what name this weapon is original ?
its from rbc but not from raid or dungeon
Do you think it's possible to get title only pugging as Arms
And only applying to keys, never posting your own
thats just dumb tho
?
ive basically never posted my own key
and im 3652 rn
(i do play with a good amount of friends tho)
but i sent alot of fullpug keys aswell
just takes infinite amount of time to get invited
You should tell Phil that
He said that's dumb but I think you're OG for it
its just whenever i invite people i get way too picky
cuz i check logs both raid and m+
and i just pick bad players somehow each time despite good logs
so i cba and just apply on end whenever im turbo bored
I got to 3.7 pugging
but you did post your key
advice on what
scroll up to 1 message below the axe picture
is that the ret guy
opinion on hosen andus
but opinion on bolas is i dont care as i dont play ret
what
tragic
not sure, but not all of those items are actually recolors either - some of them are brand new (or at least new to players)
2 h axe looks amazing we need to see where we can get them from
yeah I think you're right
Trollbane is not obtainable
the original isn't, but the reforged version is
drops from prisoner caches in the new(er) version of ZA
the prisoner cache after third boss iirc
a couple different lootables
https://www.wowhead.com/item=69592/reforged-trollbane
the green version isn't in game atm; might never be for all we know
same, unfortunately that doesn't increase our range tho 

only 1 was scuffed
where we pulled keepers
wait how did u do no damage to blossoms at all
lol
cringe build
ye
i beat the shadowpriest on all bosses
and gapped everyone pre-SR on last boss
kinda weird...
(which is why we depleted by 15sec)
this is our blossom pull
except it wasnt just blossoms
lets just say I havent seen tank play it that way
nightmare dweller
yes
wtf did you do
I can link the vod
chain it all the way down or smth
kind of
wait
how did the blossoms have so much hp
that you yourself did more blossom dmg than my entire group combined?
its 30% hp
we took 3 extra blossoms
not 200%
any dam you did before passing keepers is nullified
cause their healing aura is always active
dont you hate it when somene does less than a third of your damage in a m+ lol
that's what you get for playing with a mage
they were a evoker.. got out damaged by everyone including the holy paladin
was it an augmentation evoker? coz if so the meters don't show their actual damage
basically it's a spec that buffs other classes, most of their damage comes from giving other people buffs
then ye it's very likely
but im also not used to being the top damage dealer.. im usually bottom
just hit 470 last night
and two keys bricked.. great
u can outrange it tho or something idk looking at the vod rn
generally it was kill dryad -> chain
u have the log
give the log
Just got a Pip's (483) is that anything you would use over Augury (489) and a Moto (483) in M+?
esp when we're doing 600k dps a sec in pack both of us
all i was saying is, its very likely they do heal a chunk when doing the skip
cause moving the keepers away
is a bit cringe
and may not be far enough etc.
but blossoms dont really do anything
so even if it heals
it's irrelevant as long as it dies before the boss
(bursting)
that was not the point tho
ye
tho how's it with range comps
isnt it a bit annoying maybe
and losing some dam
with melee comp it's super whatever
@ornate eagle I checked both of my 29 logs where the keepers didnt heal fuckton and you guys just somehow must've pulled something else since you did no damage to blossoms at all
another
did your tank just do some troll route or xd
jugg feels better this season than bs change my mind
single bs is king
Not sure how drunk I was last night.. but my io increased
is it normal to overcap rage quite a bit? cant seem to spend it all in time
if you're overcapping rage
you're playing it right
that's how it is right now
the only way you might feel some rage management if you use IP defensively
you ignore rage and just blast prio at all times (Or well until execute)
i see, thank you!
i can def hit dummies high with jugg than bs by 100k more
so agreed
cuz you will spam execute on them for 15 mins
exedoot
I missed season one is there any cool trinkets we'd use?
grieftorch is funny
storm eater's boon isnt a str trinket but kinda cool
whispering incarnate icon is the most OP statstick to ever exist
(idk tbh)
current state its gonna be Icon and Brand
but they gonna tune some trinket
some are really bad in comparison
puzzle box
was good with double bladestorm
not sure how's it gonna be in season 4 with the fact that blademasters probably off the hook and we have so much more trinket options
in m+
dont make people go padding build again
unethical gaming
but puzzlebox on strong pull gonna blast
will lego proc erranog's ring from s1? ring proc's off fire damage and the axe is shadowflame
ye
shadowflam is 50% shadow and 50% fire dmg
gotcha
for some prio dmg its gonna be ok
i guess for on use raw damage trinkets the shit like grieftorch just beats it i bet
with the upcoming season when were gonna be using cleave how does our prio looks like during sweeping strikes? do we still prio MS and just use cleave when ms is off cd?
grieftorch not that good either(unless people die ofc)
i thought i remembered seeing people get huge amounts of damage in keys for overall
Tf is a dinnar
Oh not the lego itself tho
it's called bullion for df if i'm correct
thats a dumb name for a currency lol
Literal standard route
Both dryads + 4 flowers + flowers behind the house
I’m coming to get you (running 100 mph)
I agree but those moments where you just kill a mob out of nowhere makes it worth for me
dinnar sounds like DJT stock
what trinkets would you use in m+ on ptr for arms warrior ?
i am using puzzle box + augury for the double ring combo
at the first boss AA pull
fuck on uses
its pretty tiny cast
and u auto during it
and we covered with avatar BS anyway but in raid when u didnt have avatar BS u just used during a GCD
since u can use items during an ability GCD
I know I used the box in s1 but not a fan of long cd gigs
should be pretty gr8 in s4 with super fast kill times
3 min CD get one on pull one in execute
one on use is fine, two is cursed af
i just dont wanna use fuckin anvil again
im assuming bosses gonna be falling over fast in s4 so maybe they rework it to get full value cuz it takes time to stack it up
high 2nd stats fury will be insane

fury gonna have x2 cantrip weapons
surely will be good
thats 100% more than arms has
2x0 is still 0
one spec will be twiddling their thumbs for 9 weeks until aura buffs
flip a coin which will it be
u cannot run from this trink in s4. everyones first dinar goes to this
I also hate legendary axe
Yeah let’s double down on casting melee 👍
it happend
because some people couldnt stop talking about fucking channel ability
i wanna channel my foot up their asses
the warrior needs to think tactifully in order to use their hero spec ability ok
just dont look at its 30 second cooldown and you'll deal the same dmg as any other spec while using your big hannibal the great tactical 4d chess mind to determine when to use ur cool button
worst part is they gonna come in this channel and asks
where or when do i use it
masterfully 2head
there's ways to go around the root not being shit. give us a huge DR
make the dmg u take during it be taken over X amount of seconds instead of insta
no just give you knock back immunity because this class doesn't have ways to cheese them anyway right
bro if i could demolish a dream rend and take nothing
i would feel like such a gamer
thats masterful use, not waiting until ol buddy finishes his firestorm so i can press my very hard hitting ability button
give us increased range
NO and NO
i also think we should be able to leap during bladestorm
the design is flawed
if it was on a long cd sure
but on a 30s cd
how do you use it during dream rend
for example
you cant
its only 2 seconds and probably hasted
press bladestorm while bladestorming to go into helicopter mode 
if they make it so fast its unnoticable, why have it to begin with
thats why i dont think it will be hasted
and if it is, then idk they are dumber than a bag of rocks
because at that point the root is only there because someone said its cool
thats why you should let us do the thinking 
if its hasted and 2 seconds, the CC immunity and such is almost pointless
at that point its sticking to your guns to spite the players
i rlly dont think it'll be hasted because of that, otherwise you just kill your own arguement
a channel thats not hasted
regardless, if you haste that the immunity and move immunity is pointless
because its what, a 1 sec immunity?
they just make it so you cant be easily stopped
doing it
because most instant form of CC are stun
thats why i dont think it will be, because otherwise blizz is just taking any argument for the root out at the knees
you dont know how hasted works right ?
you would need more than 100% haste to have 1 sec
i know how hasted works
i dont think it will be because otherwise whatever weird cc immunity loses value
and if its so hasted u dont notice the root/immunities, you have to ask why even have it to begin with
do you use bladestorm for the CC immunity ?
you dont really care about it
its just QOL
depends on the content
thats what you dont understand
u use BS for cc immunity not dmg depending on content
33% chance to be targeted
i.e pvp
nobody cares about pvp
still in high enough keys where living it is hard im pretty sure u save it
they dont design stuff around that
then again i havent done a 29+ wcm so idk
X to doubt
