against 3 targets or +5 if ss active
though this suggests also using bonegrinder below so don't look at it
is it good to have blacksmithing on your arms just for the repair?
Bis will always be alchemy for increased phial duration
going from 30 min to 1:30 is pretty sick
so alchemy and blacksmithing?

yeah dreadnought is fun
guys can u make a macro for puzzlebox+bs like back in season1? i did but seems to be not working
Its fixed
you cannot for regular bladestorm, you can if you run avatar bladestorm but barely anyone uses that
i see thank you. bcoz of gcd i guess
thank you guys
no longer works with avatar bladestorm eitherr - cast it before
all your cleave questions have been answered in #updates-midnight - only send it with 2x op buff
nah press ms
ms go BURRR
Idk where to even begin asking questions
like
Which ability has highest prio for multitarget
OP?
Have you read the guides? Rotation section?
during Sweeping strikes mostly yes
this is ur first stop for the basics yes
Yeah but they are just as confusing
Icy Veins, for example, has OP at cast number 10
and SS while bladestorming
which is completely wrong
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/qbkPW9PUVZfjR9vA4rdFYf 3 types of gem on my sims !
So those are not the cast sequences but rather priorities?
so then WW is our top prio and OP is on 10th place?
no, WW is a big prio during Warbreaker
if u wanna boil it down very basically u do =>
During sweeping strikes :
- ms on CD
- OP as much as u can while maintaining DW with cleave and Rend with TC
Outside of sweeping :
if u want prio dmg u still MS on CD, else u spend more globals on cleave
and i honestly end up mostly pressing WW somewhat close to on CD
but then again im by no means a giga player
This is going to take some time to get used to
During sweeping u only want to MS on <=4 unless prio target
Don’t stress about target count for now
pressing MS on cd during SS is never a bad choice i feel like
You have enough in your brain trying to figure out just pushing buttons. Counting monsters is just gonna make it more confusing
prio dmg this week is really important
How much should i use overpower
alot
op should be your most cast spell
Yes
Hekili users have been saved bigkek
Depends so much on the tank pulls and the group
so i still don't understand arms aoe xd
so not big arms player?
its the same prio except the target count goes from 5 to 3
between MS and cleave prio
ya idk the 5/3 target prio..
the prio list on wowhead gives me an aneurism every time i look at it
use MS over cleave when theres less than 5 targets (with SS up) and with less than 3 targets (when ss is down)
but also depends if you want more prio damage MS is better
since it chunks your target
anyone has a WA set bonus tracker. the one on wago does not work
i want more overall dps idc about actually helping my team
warrior player after all
so target count changes ms/cleave priority
does it change anything other priority
like is execute still just filler if u cant press anything else
Do i spam execute during execute phases? Im so lost
or just a filler to use OP and MS
You have 3gcds between mortal strikes
So you execute -> execute -> op -> Ms
When you're below 40 rage you send OP
Okay thanks :)!
i thought u always prio ms over exe?
You basically are in execute still
Guys what is the best opener for M+ in a multi target(6+targets) scenario? I got really confused reading the guide on wow head. I don’t know when to cast TR e when to use cleave to activate the tier set bonus.
so in low target count aoe do i still press cleave over whirlwind
You ww on CD
I checked the rank 1 arms warrior on kazarha hellforged mythic raid and his 2nd highest ability was execute 20% isn't that kinda weird?
i thought ww was low on the prio list 😭
You cleave on 4+ with SS down, and 7+ with SS up
so on 3 or less with ss down i just dont press it at all
Ww spends big rage and does good damage, that's why you just send it on cd
Yeh there you send MS over cleave
Only cleave as filler when you can't MS
the ? was more accurate
having an actual aoe rotation different from the st rotation hurts my fury brain...
(Big fury player)
Eh
The aoe rotation is mostly your ST rotation
You just start cleaving when it's many red health bars
If it's not that many red healthbars, cleave is just a filler

so in exe phase w/ the aoe build ur pressing exe twice, op once before ms
but what if ms resets
am i suposed to use rend in the rotation? or just apply it with the other abilities?
apply w/ clap
Only apply rend in pure ST
oh
man i am NOT putting rend on my bars
im not even putting slam on my bars, u cant make me put rend on my bars
alr thx, just wondering cuz then i can get an extra slot in my bars lol
been a fury player all my life but fury with this set is just miserable so im trying out arms
welcome to the good side
"fury with this set is miserable" fury with this set is how fury has been for yrs xd
everybody hated annihilator until they were forced to use it now they cant go back ..
Fury in M+ still slaps with the S2 set its just struggling on pure ST boss dmg
fury is alsways miserable
which is not a big deal cuz its a meme season
The complaints about Annihilator were funny. Everyone was so hyped to play it in the prepatch
im an annihilator enjoyer
nah i never liked this set even when it realeased, i was complaining when people voted for it to come back
give me back legion fury warrior blizzard
when everyone wants the legion version of warrior again and blizz still refuses to rework us

furious slash my favorite
wdym we got a rework on alpha 
is cataclysmic signet and OCE bis this tier for ST?
should i just switch to windwalker
Honestly i very much like most of current arms, it just has some issues
Arms in aoe = 30 million buttons
thats one yeh
If you can keep both up. Very situational.
on alpha theyve fixed our atrocious rage econ
I enjoyed the arms gameplay in DF mostly it just needed some help. I loved the insane rage gain and warlords torment on CS it was very fun we just needed a way to spend it
and with them seeming to move cleave forward more as our go to aoe button thats looking positive aswell
but no blizz is like nope lets go back to no rage
ahh ok thank you! 🙂
I'm gonna say it. I loved wod version of both fury and arms.
Arms was a slow spec with big hits.
Fury was a crit monster
In the first blue post I think blizz mentioned warriors should have to manage rage but like what classes actually have to manage their resource. Mana hasnt existed for casters in years and Energy/CP are completely flooded and steroided these days. but yet warrior having to much rage is bad
damn i need an addon to keep track of which buffs i have active for the rotation or this is hell lol
MoP was best iteration of fury
WoD Fury blew until T18 and the stats to support it.
ye, very hard to hit the sweetspot tho. like if we have to chargeweave on cd then that's too low generation and then we have things like live where we are swimming in it
AoE simple breakdown:
Thunderclap to rend, Roar on cooldown, Cleave for 4p, Avatar+WB, Whirlwind (SoS), Bladestorm.
After that, you mostly want to: Cleave at 2 MP > WW(sos) > OP > TClap
Can simplify target count so 3T with sweeping is when you MS/Execute.
You lose a bit of min/max at the 4-5 target range, but not enough to think about it often.
what color do we take in AA?
Other classes and specs do have to manage their resources, in the sense that their resources determine their decisions. Right now arms barely has that because we are so often flooded with rage that the answer is just to mash whatever deals the most damage, and not look at our rage bar.
If rage generation is lower, it gives more room for us to do things like choose to use overpower or even bladestorm to stall and give time for rage generation instead of those being the abilities that make you overcap
Haste or vers
Which would be bronze for haste, red for vers
I usually take vers but wastn sure
I would generally recommend vers, it's virtually identical to other stats in terms of damage but also gives survivability in a dungeon with a couple of fights that can hurt a lot on higher keys
Either works. Vers probably better with certain trinkets and borrowed damage
with lego too
I think versatility is especially valuable earlier in the season since we're so under geared and running keys that are higher than our item level
I like haste for ST, but vers provides a bit of survivability
How Big of a improvement is having T4 from having t2 for m+?
in the aoe build exe phase, i send ms over exe but not over op
but i need one op before i ms?
also do i not bladestorm in st or do i
you do
oh right hurricane
Hey guys so the latest updates say to only use Cleave with 2 stacks of Martial Prowess (and only >4 targets if during Sweeping Strikes). So does this really mean that we shouldn’t be using cleave if we haven’t casted op twice yet? And that we shouldn’t be using cleave above 4 targets if we don’t have sweeping strikes up?
I just got confused with this because I recall posts saying to use cleave above 6+ targets without sweeping strikes. And watching critcake’s stream extensively last night, I noticed he would use cleave right after one cast of OP and regardless if he had sweeping strikes or not (when there was more than 5-6 targets)
so in st exe w/ hybrid build
i press op w/ 2 stacks, otherwise press exe
and ms on cd
shockwave
im pressing TC a lot as a filler to reset OP. is that a problem?
4 with sweeping only means you don't cleave on 2-4 with sweeping up
ah ye, i just call shockwave shockwave xD
SW=second wind my guys
Ohhh okay, got it. Sorry I think I misread it haha
And sending cleave with 1xMP or 2xMP is rather minor iirc, loses you more prio than aoe
its really no biggie either way
I for one won't fucking track MP stacks
Okay this clears my concerns up a lot, thanks man.
🤷♂️
The only thing ill do diff from this is send WW before BS in opener
big wooosh
What are APL updates anyways? Were there changes made to our abilities or smth?
to fish for the 4set bonus?
APL is what sims use to determine what abilities to use when
Apl is the prio the robot plays by
APL = Action priority list
basically the rotation the sim does
And deswind figured out smth better
Cool, thanks guys!
Whereby rotation is a bad word, as its very clearly a priority system.
Did you find a WA for this or something?
I just think in a feast or famine scenario I rather be feasting. if we just had a creative and interesting way to spend the excess rage Im down. I totally supported some off gcd abillity like HS or the one that buffed next MS
I also really dislike being reliant on WFT to feel good its like the same thing as PI some classes gameplay just actually felt so much better when u had PI so it feels like shit when u dont get it
guys for someone who doesnt have a legendary and will not get it soon, what's the next best thing to buy with the bullions? My trinkets are frenzying signol flare and augury
WFT feels the exact same
i'd just go down the bullion list on wowhead and skip the lego until you acquire it
as long as we have some exe focus we are always going to feel alot better with wft. i'm of the opinion that they should remove all raid buffs
nice ok, ty a lot
I dont mind raid buffs just not the cringe raid buffs. Like for the love of god why is something like WFT spec specific and only party wide. Give all shamans WFT so we dont have to do this cringe oh we neeed 1 enhance for a party wide buff oh but sorry theres no room for you in the WFT grp so you have to sit out of it sorry
As someone whose paladin never got the Lego to drop last season I just said f it and went Ashkandur. I don't need that weekly disappointment.
But I just started playing my warrior so I don't know anything
no, so in Single Target you basically just follow your normal raid priority, meaning overpower is below execute in that context
Thank you for this. Was struggling to find the priority with targets.
If the boss is below 35%, you'd only send MS if you had 2x stacks of Executioner's Precision, but yes if the boss is above 35% you just send MS
correct yes
only old ones taht dont work unfortunatly
the prio list is slowly starting to clear up in my head, ty
the 19 entry long prio list on wowhead is pain to look at lmao
look at enhance prio list
haha i haven't looked at it recently, lemme gander
its a lot worse
holy moly, never really thought of how much different shit there is to prio as arms. been playing arms the entire expansion so pretty used to it
yea i play fury so im just like "i press rampage raging blow raging blow :)"
then i switch to arms and im like "i need a phd to zug zug"
Our enhance shaman wanted to ele during some farm kills and it’s cringe how wft is spec specific
that is quite the cognitive overload to read over for sure
i almost feel like it'd be better to split it up into small chunks based on target count
instead of just a list that encompasses every situation
I read the MM priority list, and everything top to bottom is just "press X on cooldown"
Definitely felt like an "that's it?" moment
I played enhance as my first character this season because it fit my group I play with a lot. The complexity is awful it's so many plates to spin. Plus it's so damn squishy. I am all for high skill cap specs but the reward has gotta be there. High complexity and okay damage sucks ass.
meanwhile ret paladin. very very easy, shit ton of damage, extremely tanky and has insane utility
Yeah I played paladin last season and everything feels poorly designed compared to it. Prot and ret are so clean.
Hey just a clarification for this, based on the latest APL updates, it says when sweeping strikes is up we shouldn’t use cleave when its up to 4 targets. So shouldn’t we be able to use MS/Execute with sweeping when its 4T instead of just 3T?
Thanks in advance!
Correct. But I was simplifying it further for those that don't want to track mobs and think about it.
Cleave at 5 or more during sweeping is ideal
Ah, got it.
But if you wanna be lazy, keep it at 3. Sweeping up at 3 use MS. No sweeping use cleave
If you dont care for prio
do we have a WA that says how many mobs are in the vicinity? that would actually help a lot
I like to just stand there and think about what I should be doing and thus doing zero damage
Does that mean we shouldn’t use cleave at all when its 4 or less targets during sweeping strikes? I was thinking about a situation when MS, Execute, and OP are all down and there’s 4 or less targets (with sweeping strikes)
You can cleave as filler.
Got it thanks man
If you have trouble reading priority lists like me, run a quick sim on raidbots and check out the cast timeline at the bottom.
I don't know if it's perfect, but it helped me out a bit. You can change the target count to see the different breakpoints too
Wait cleave works with sweeping?
Is what I use
Is it fine to TC as filler if I don't want to ms a single target and there's like 9 mobs?
damn that's sick ty
Sorry another question. What if sweeping isn’t up, when do you use cleave? Like what if its 2-4 targets and I don’t have sweeping
its a bit sweaty but i dont wanna count mobs every pack xd
I could be wrong but 3 or lower with no sweeping u prio ms
yeah its the same for us our enhance really wants to play ele but he really doesnt want to be the guy who switches off ehance screwing 4 other ppl over when he was recruited to be enhance
My rl asked me why do I play fury if it's so bad
Idk dude I like it and it's s4
😦
Now I study arms
📙
No sweeping, cleave at 3. This is why 3 is the lazy way. Almost no matter what you can just cleave at 3. You lose optimized damage.
💀💀
no he means the enh
Yh that's cringe
makes sense if you're hof guild in a proper season
But what if I want to optimize? 😦
fuck the meta and all this shit
Thanks man!
My last guild recleared with no enha lmao
If u want to optimize the simple answer is >=5
there is no fuck the meta because fuck the meta means not playing the game
I'm sorry jeventes I'm a brainrot fury enjoyer I cannot count for more than 4
Jk
Well if u cant count em anymore start cleaving
<3. without ss >= 5 with ss
Less than 3 without sweeping
More than 5 or 5 with sweeping = cleave
U use sweeping for overpowers
Overpower with sweeping sends out another dreadnaught for full damage
Ok so cleave doesn't do anything a sweeping
OK COOL
Did not know!!
Ok so at 4?
What do I do?
Well i wasnt sure till a few days back either, but archi confirmed it since i needed it for a video 🙂
I already have 2 xd
Shieeee hook me up I'll even write a hateful comment for the algorithm
Wait so cleave isnt affected by sweeping?
Kekw
1 million mortal strike 💪🏼💪🏼
which dragon buff do you guys usually grab in AA?
guys, what stats do we prio for arms this season? haste crit again or we go haste mastery?
sim
😄
but basically haster vers and crit really
always sim though
Bro made a chart
so we dont use mastery another season 
PIN IT
Man the “e”s in that font is an atrocity
Its sized down
❤️
u don't know how much that helps me
Im glad it does 🙂
I S2g i just be clicking whatever is available
Just remember that stuff gets a bit wonky whenever you deal with prio targets
But u gotta use ur best judgement for that one
@wind flicker
Very much appreciated sir.
warrior community best community frfr
And about the font thingy, its a snipped from the video so its sized down i agree the font looks kinda bad on here kekw
yeah its not fit for discord now 😄
we need to spam those screenshot its so much easier too
I can maybe try and edit it a bit in photoshop to make it more discord suiteable
tbh i think its a miss there isn't a proper opener on the wowhead guide
The difficulty with an opener is that it assumes targets to already be gathered and standing still ready to blast
So what does one do when you run out of rage from MS'ing too many times in a row
👴
In reality, u can already build some rage, apply some bleeds and get your tier set bonus right before sending out your stuff
you try to smash MS til it goes in 
yep you can slowly build your dmg up
til you kinda ramp
But in general, charge -> TC -> Avatar + WB -> whirlwind -> roar -> bladestorm
I think this is the "new" way
WB after
yeah i have a good idea now thanks to a couple comments and videos
but if anyone is brand brand new to the spec and looks at wowhead
they will be quite lost
haha]
Who else using the jug build instead of BS?
I mean sending wb before or after ur ww isnt going to be a disaster
Just do whatever feels best for you 🙂
if you just hold your big CD
I believe Archi said its practically 0 the other day
til everything is packed
its gonna be ok anyway
the order is w/E
you just need to hit everything
Well you kinda want to get your tierset before it gathers
The thing is, Sims like i said think that the targets are like dummies standing still and grouped. So normally you can get 1 cleave of in MT to get tier bonus before sending out ur major cd's
Then when ur done with ur bladestorm ur tierset should about run out in which u can refresh it again
yeah keeping some tier set proc is 99% of the thing we have to track now
Exactly
but if you get lucky and full of rage you have a priority too
So what i always do is send out 1 cleave before im sending my big stuff (before its gathered) to ensure the big dmg buff
so if you cant go WW because not enough rage you move on and thats the tricky part for most
Usually i leave it out and use it after to proc overpowers
But it is considered a slight loss

Technically most ur damage comes from the bleed
So it doesnt REALLY matter
the first hit is shit
^
big poopy hit
we have known this since early s3
bleed does 
So
Giga damage
I charge troar avatar warbreaker
news travel slowly sadly
?
I think its more due to it being a very minor optimization
probably this too
You want to send it before bladestorm
You thunderous roar bleed lasts longer than hurricane buff
Definitely before bs you lose so much uptime on it
so it does amp your bleed for a longer duration
But when ur bladestorming you are stacking it up which means you get an extra 4 seconds of hurricane on your bleeds
Ok
make sure you're running "latest"
vs how many targets do i whirlwind on cd
This was from yday when i was making the vid. I think you updated it after did you not?
When do i start using cleave
yeah updates went out last night
yeah thats probably why then
It was only a showcase, doesnt impact anything on my end luckily :3
they really should make latest the default option @smoky kayak
since its always really up to date and mostly bug free
well the reason it isn't is because it's not necessarily bug free, since it updates near instantly without much in the way of checks
its not like you guys push shit blindly til your peers review it anyway
you are kinda 99% sure its a gain
I mean some do/some don't
but we usually catch it pretty fast either way
it impacts absolutely nothing - the roar change was just a simplification that has next to no impact on DPS, since just throwing it on CD tends to align with WB anyway
and it was doing some clunky stuff because you have some target check in your APL
Oh i meant i used that screenshot for a video. But that part was of no significance, just to showcase that sims automatically assume packs are gathered
yeah, usually the only time latest has a problem is if someone fat fingered and forgot a ) or something, and then the whole thing crashes, but we tend to get quick enough feedback that it should be noticed pretty quick (and that's assuming they didn't rebuild and test themselves before pushing anyway, which I always try to do)
or the main build your testing works, but some other build breaks
Is this single target
No, aoe sim
Why would you use fyralath first
Hey @sage badge have you tried the BS build vs Jugg and noticed any major differences in DPS?
You wont have the dots on the targets to increse its dmg
rate my warrior
in actual AoE situations, it's usually better to prioritize your CDs first, assuming you're not saving them for something
but for a sim, it doesn't really matter
Well atleast ur getting full value on your money for it being a fantasy game
Fairy warrior
510 with no leggo 
started playing february
rip
im hoping next tuesday.

I appear 512 so.. they think I have the leggo
but no
The diff in order of WW/Roar etc is literally negligible for AOE, and RNG crits could make 1 better than the other on diff uses etc...hit your shit on CD and don't stand in bad
@dull siren i see you don't take fatal mark in some of your rank 1s, do you skip it for extra point in bloodborne on short fights?
You'll be ok
Hardest part of arms in higher M+ is knowing when to prio and when to cleave, and then using IP properly
and dstance
Fatal Mark is equal to Bloodborne around 3min fight duration
Holy fuck watching people never use IP/dstance drives me wild
ive been given mixed answers on this, is it ok to reflect the bomb on last boss of AA?
Might be a dumb question but why are all the pieces with Mastery simming so high, thought we wanted Haste/Crit
also, I never figured this out in exe phase - To get enough rage I have to do Execute->OP and then MS resets, do I send MS anyway or get 2x EP
2x EP
ok ty
ty as well
because at that point with the gear you have, those pieces of gear provide the most dps, it's that shrimple
once you have more mastery, more pieces with crit/haste might sim better
just follow the sim
gotcha! thank you so much
i feelycraft away some stats to get more vers for survivability in m+
but that's not optimal for pure dps
I haven't. I play FoB, that has neither bladestorm or jugg.
Deswind is the only true chad warrior

does his own cooking and still looks good while doing it
good morning skyhold
aug detected. overall invalidated
No. It just makes whirlwind a filler to guarantee tactician (OP resets)
What do you drop in the build for cleave?
That Aug is punching far above the rest of the group. 130k when the tank is only at 170 is nuts
This is what I'm currently running. Only did as high as 14s, so feel free to change it around.
that tank should do more than 180k no?
Either the tank is crap or the Aug is absolutely blasting.
dh slaps
Tank should be at 300 if Aug is sitting at 130
Looks like you took out sudden death, interesting, does that not affect your priority damage much?
They're doing their best 
SD prio went down because we dont have s3 set i'm pretty sure
SD procs are wasted in aoe, most of your damage is chunky MS, and using OP on them
So you only use whirl as a reset for more ms? Even in high target count groups?
what's your reason for the 2x critical thinking points? that seems weird af to me
More crit for aoe. They're just floater points really.
those 2 points are worth more than BS?
it feels weird taking CT without mass but the crit is nice imo
Don't like bladestorm, so that's where I put them
ah ok
was about to ask if you just don't like bladestorm xD
hurricane buffs DN
True, but FoB allows me to do more DN
also true
Either works. I peaked like 2.7m dps in an academy 9 earlier this week with this. Don't feel like I need to do more than that. Feels better going pack to pack especially when it's low target counts
wonder if imp slam is better for your build, i know you only ww to reset OP but still over 1% crit
It's not. Slam isn't too big in the overall contribution
you'd also wanna run crushing force but the damage isnt worth losing your 2 stuns
When I start pushing I'll probably play bladestorm build or swap out cruel strikes for endurance + shockwave or endurance + uproar
ye makes sense
the hybrid build Ilike better, I can't do double bs it feels really clunky to me
i thought switching to arms would get me invited but i guess not
still have to run my own keys
ppl are clueless its fuinny
they dont see your spec they see your class
ye the 1 bladestorm build feels best to play. doesn't sacrifice too much st
No one invites arms 

aura or addon?
they do see your spec
addon
name of the addon?
"i saw my favourite streamers tier list and they said warrior is dumpster!!!"
god i love tierlists
👀
it just forces people to play meta and they suck anyways so it wont matter in the end
anyway they musta forgot
a tierlist can tell me mage is S tier all they want, i'm still not inviting mages to my key. absolute terrorists
mage players have always been terrible in my key range
real
mage players have always been terrible in every key ive ever done from 2 to 23
i was only 3.2k last season mind you but still
Tier lists are good at making people watch tier lists on yt/twitch 🙃
so w/ the hybrid build in single target execute phase
if ur not pressing op at all before ms because ur pressing execute
that still does more overall dmg than pressing op?
did you reset the counter for s4 at least
assuming 40 rage executes
you weave in ops after 2x exe ms it's a filler for rage
this is only if ms doesnt reset tho, which it does a lot
?
basically it's MS -> 3 spells -> MS
- You want two of those spells to be Execute, but possibly all 3
- If you're above 40 rage Execute
- If you're below 40 rage Overpower
Nope. Running since I went back to warr for s3
you should have enough time for it to reset considering haste
I would also decline you
cant trust the yellow names
or does only op reset the cd of ms

idk arms lore yet
you dont care if MS resets in execute phase in single target, only send it with 2x Execute Buff stacks
should have reset it for s4
that's incorrect
it's lower prio because we have s1 tier
MS is more important than Execute (including sudden death procs) in single target, when the target is above 35%
He said OP. Not MS
no no that clarifies things
when do i execute in aoe? depends on target count? if sd procs?
with or without ss?
How good is sd
Probably should check out wowhead brother. But someone would tell me I'm incorrect
in aoe bs and dn prob gonna do more damage even with ss'd sd procs
I saw someone post a build here
wowhead clarifies nothing for me
sd irrelevant in aoe
I think he had the same build as me but took out SD and placed it into bloodborn
Or whatever bleed incresed dmg is called
i mean everything with arms especially in keys is extremely situational a lot of the time you're just sending buttons, execute kinda becomes irrelevant in aoe with SD procs because you don't have the TC attached to it so op and SS'd ms > sd / execute
almost no
in lower target count it becomes better but even still over OP and MS you don't press it that much over the other two
If theres like 2 or 3 targets
like for instance if you're at 2t cleave you can force target the EP ms on the secondary target and garuntee you're getting maximum damage with your buffed ms
but if it's like anything 5+ OP cleave and ms is going to do more damage than you sending an aoe execute with SS
why u gotta do it on the 2nd target
its just how sweeping strikes works
Yes
But if op dont reset then what
For what it's worth, this is my dslice sim comparing the build I'm running and the warlords bladestorm build. Granted, dslice isn't as realistic as m+ and bladestorm will perform in very large pull counts (academy, nokhud, brackenhide) if your cooldowns line up for them.
when you EP ms the main target anything that hits the main hits the secondary so if you're forcing EP on 2 things and you can reliably target only two things you're just getting free damage, with more targets you can't force it on a specific mob with 5+ because you're moving and it could hit one thing but you'd MS another if that makes sense
warrior math
how does EP work exactly
also in aoe dont u just send cleave on cd regardless of martial prowess stacks
is there any use saving pot for exe phase in raid?
Then you use thunderclap / whirlwind
Or if no other option then yea
so when you execute something it puts a debuff on it, stacks twice and it increases your ms damage, if you're in 2 target with SS anything you do to the main target gets applied to your secondary target
You press MS on reset in execute phase?
No, you get a buff
And just use execure above 40rage and op below
executioner's precision is absolutely a debuff on target, not buff onyourself
so why would it matter if u exe the primary or secondary target
if its getting applied no matter what
it only applies to one thing you're attacking
i had to fact check myself real quick xD
heya guys ....is it worth using catalyst on Hero Single piece to convert to tear + Mark to make 2 piece or wait :p ?
Yeah its mb i had Martial Prowess in my mind for whatever reason
but how are u gonna get 4 exes off on 2 targets without pressing ms
unless ur ignoring ms
I find that with single Bladestorm build, my cool downs get desynced. How should I manage avatar, wb, and bs? What should be sent and what should he held?
send it
You send wb/bs/roar together preferably
And once every 3 min it alligns
Just send avatar with whatever's available?
Cool, thanks
im mostly talking about priorities of action and explaining sweeping strikes tech. So if you know how arms basic theory works you have abilities that can apply a single debuff, MS -> deep wounds, Rend-> rend and aoe abilities that can apply on multiple targets Warbreaker / cleave -> Deep wounds, TC ( if specced) -> rend. We currently don't have any way to put executioners precision on more than 2 targets so that's where sweeping strikes comes in, it's a very underutilized mechanic for arms in m+ keys, which is where I said in 2 target you can reliably apply EP to two things because of how sweeping strikes works, anything you apply to your main target with a single target debuff will apply to the secondary target. So you can EP two things at one time. It becomes unreliable to do it above 5+ targets since you cannot apply EP to more than 2 targets so the debuff might hit a target your sweeping strikes is not hitting and you have pretty much wasted damage.
WOT but i had to explain it
does that make a little bit more sense
Tc doesnt apply rend on all targets right?
only on 5
only 5 random ones
so u DONT have to mouseover macro execute
i dont use macros so i'm not sure
but does that make sense or answer the original question
what keys is blademasters torment build better for?
none really
None
then why are some of the top M+ guys running it
Just to do tank damage on bosses
14 out of top 50 roughly
They are trolling
really early into the season people wanna pad
IMO the build feels clunky i'd avoid it
14 out of the top 50? Seems unlikely
They are the type of people to play fury this patch when you can play arms
its almost the exact same as the normal build
you swap it for warlords and it feels instantly better
the normal arms M+ build this ssn is a lot more complex than what were used to for warrior specs tho yeah
but im loving it now
Explore Murlok.io's top Arms Warrior PvE guide for Mythic+ in WoW 10.2.6. Find strategies, stats, and gear from the top 50 Arms Warriors.
weeeeee bladestorm
here i go again second bladestorm weeeeeee 
The reality is that if you play Blademasters with MBG / reaping etc you'll do virtually no priority damage or boss damage which will actually make timing keys harder
murlok is not right fyi
yeah im not having any problems with my damage or timing keys as is
i.e.
i was just curious
it doesnt take all 50 from 50
as to why
wdym
it skips spots
one sec, gonna go time a couple of 15's with a cursed build
I never thought it was super accurate but its still a pretty solid way to get general idea and info
if you really wanna see what top players are playing
go to wclogs
specific dungeons
if you want a better idea go to raider IO and look up specific dungeons to see what people are using
i do for raids
WCL is bad for dungeons
Nobody logs their dungeons really
Unless there is a dragon in it
there was one dungeon where it said I was double bs but I was playing jugg last season
I only know 1 person in the "top" that uses it
well raiderio is also just a lot more inconvenient than murlokio to get the same info for me anyway
And only for specific dungeons
generally speaking
weeeeee two bladestorms
don't look at my boss damage
blademasters torment is not the ideal choice
warlords is burstier
and better boss dam
- better prio
i run warlords anyway
I mean it’s not like you do 0 boss damage with MBG build, but you’ll do like 30k less played optimally
again was just curious
i guess they were either just having fun or had specs with giga ST so went more aoe heavy
I mean obviously a very good player will do better boss damage with blademasters than say avg warrior even with warlords jugg
but optimally you dont need that much pad in most comps or even in any comp
because stuff just gets cleaved
It helps that a lot of damage comes from MS this tier
yeah big fucking numbers tho
having your name ontop of the overalls
thats all the really matters tbh
play with shit players
everything else is cope
you'll have it every time
for not being able to pump massive dps
Till u start playing with SP's and ur dream get shattered
kekw
Very few specs bring the prio damage or 2 target that we do, so let warlocks blast aoe while we kill off relevant targets
just dont play with good ones 💯
I wouldn't say very few aagaard
but we definitely have a pretty good prio
and it's underrated i.e. nobody ever mentions it
Was about to say, there is quite a few above us
I do remember in throne on single sentinel pulls
rare cases fire mage would beat me on sentinel even without reflect
Obviously assa or sub dumping their CDs in a single target does better lol
sp obv would gap me if he was good
i'm sure doing top 0.01% keys with giga pulls only a top 0.01% tank can coordinate successfully can make BS builds seems tasty but for the rest of us let's just stick to jugg ya kno
taking stormbolt over seismic reverberation is so troll
leaving giga damage on the table for 1 stun lmao
well to be fair seismic reverberation is a very high skill cap ability


?
he gotta be trolling
damn yall goin crazy
stopping a 1 shot cast > 30% whirlwind damage

must all use stormbolt 😂
correction, 11% ww damage
than .1% overall damage

while youre all coping with stormbolt ill be at the top of the meters with my 0.0001% extra dam
I'm tryna play TWW mountain thane early access not giving up storm bolt for nothin

yeah imagine TWW with mop stormbolt
gyatt
Quick question, anyone using their Bullion on the AshKandur, if they don't have the lego? I don't see me getting the lego anytime soon
haha, Blizzard RNG is not with me
For execute rotation, id ideally want to do: x2 execute, x2 OP, MS?
Ms on cd,above 40rage execute below 40 overpower i think
Someone correct me on thay
That
dont quote me on it but ive been Execute x2, MS. if MS is down, Executex2 Opx1 then MS
you're missing globals
ANGeRy
basically ms -> 3x gcd -> ms
what globals
most of the time you spam execute so you dont overcap and waste rage
so if over 40 rage execute. if under OP cast MS before wasting 2x executioners presician stacks
or overstacking
its all about managing resource
only in reck windows will you find your self Exe 3 times into MS
Or wft
i havent had wft for months
Or a sd proc
ive forgotten its caress
Man for real feels so much better with mess sd procs
Coz now i can spend my rage agan
so part of the meta achieve is opening all fishing nets
and to unlock this fishing hole, i need to do a quest
and the quest is blocked by fyrakk assault, and by the time the assault is gone, the fishing net quest will be gone
is it over??
do we have another build for aoe heavy raid encounters?
when engaging a new target, like in open world content
and i have the rage for a ms
do i just send ms or do i op first
Ms
You want dw and rend on your target
Well maybe not rend since the mob will die fairly quick


guys sorry to ask bc i guess is up there somewere but i cant find it, is worth to run 2 T3 and 2 T4 over 4 T3?
is rresearchers under fire at :30 or :00
at :30

sum like that ya
what if the filler consumes my 2 prowess charges thatll be used on ms next gcd tho
do i rotate twice between OP and exec before MS or just go 2x exec 1x op into MS
i thought u always wanted to press op once
or is that just filler to smooth the rage curve
with ashen juggernaut at least on raidfights a third exe just better
can i do better then this logs as arms warrior with hekili ?
it is my logs as destuction
but if its like "m+ st rotation" and you dont have juggernaught maybe 1 op is better
i typically just send 3 exe if i have the rage anyway
gives am/tom etc

idk mang... i mean havent played lock in a long time but i mean i think it just depends on how good hekili is for that spec
i hate that i cant do better then grey logs
do u try to look at some wowhead guides
in terms of talents/rotations etc
think there are also sometimes some "raid tips" in those too usually
other than that kinda basic stuff idrk how to actually give solid advice for ppl to improve other than maybe try watching some goo d people play your spec and see what they do
to try and understand whats going on a bit better
like streamers/youtubers for example
i had problem with priority list since shadowlands season 1
i mean u can prolly press it if theres a prio target that needs to die
but for strictly overall boosting i think yea filler
also how many targets before i press ww on cd
🐕🦺
vs as filler
i feel i play better with hekili i heared it is bad but i dont have any other choice
3 outside of ss iirc
i mean at some point you just understand prio and can drop it
if theres no prio target then sure
idc if theres a prio target!!! i need to OUT DPS PEOPLE
you do higher dps if you're not stuck killing a single enemy for 10 seconds after a pack because no one focused it down
woah...
spongos do i log into my wizard
are consistent PIs on arms stronger than on mage? (since it doesnt line up on 2min same way it does for mage)
no
or farm declines on warrior
you farm waffen krieger
(i am applying as fury)
die immediately
Not if u burst down everything at 3mil dps before people even get to do their openers
thats like 2 lower than me
.
prolly magus cuz prio dam by defaukt
idk
like in m+ or st
st just sim it

based
yeah one leg on the pc table , one hand on the keyboard and the other hand scratching his nuts feeding on the social welfare of the Scandinavian tax payers . @sacred zodiac
germany (scandinavia)

has he been banned yet

excellent news
i know right
how are my stats as arms ?
idk what does ur sim say
idk
looks like fury gear to me
i am 457 item level
stats doesnt matter at that ilvl get more gear
do you guys all run the warlords bladestorm talents for m+?
Double bs poopy
@sacred zodiac i have 47.70% haste is this playable 
warlords is good yep
this fucks (cleave if 4p)
yeah i got 4p
arms fucks
I would personally change a few things here being: drop Honed reflexes and Seismic Reverbation and put the points in Frothing Berserker and Intimidating shout
no
yes
it legit doesnt matter if ur never using fear anyways
is seismic better than frothing?
for sure it has to be a lot of rage
inb4 we have too much rage anyways
im under the impression it doesnt matter
Well idk about that statement
normal
in 10's its whatever
its objectively not right to do
Same people asking for more utility don’t even use the stuff we have
