do you have a log
So this is a stupid question
but how long does smoldy keep orb buffs if you mis s it?
how can we tell you what you're doing wrong without a log to show what you're doing
forever
do you have as screenshot of your Details or Damage Meter from a recent key?
Dosen't seem to be the case anymore
what difficulty
heroic
Might be why?
on mythic it stays
100%
i was so sure it did on heroic too
If someone missed a brand on mythic you just wipe lol
idk especially this season its not that rough anymore tbh
ive seen kills with quite a few missed orbs tbh
im doing
a
key rn
this 493 spriest
more dps thanm me
all good, just post it once you're done if you have questions about it
also different specs do different damage amounts, that's not inheritly surprising
a significant amount of that may be due to you typing in discord
just do your key friend
you can take a screenshot with Windows+Shift+S
if you hover over your name specicially it'll show a breakdown of spells
...signet brand in keys?
No that's for raids
sure thing, so which build were you running for this key?
💀
If you have leggo or shadowflame armor patch you can proc ring
Single BS is typically seen as better and more commonly used
aslso you can drop uproar for shock
i dont have leggo
Double BS can work but it’s typically worse than warlords
There's a few things here that we can certainly help get you pointed in the right direction here
but i got neck
1 sec cd cleave poggers
Typically you want to prioritize embellishments with your first sparks, I use Vers wrists and 1x shadoeflame
vers bracers are good
Bro repair them
you need that 525
Oh ok, BSL is stronger at its peak but only if you can maintain uptime. I don’t like bsl but I am just a bsl hater
bsl is hot garbage
Any 2x bsl gamers?
??
healer doesnt keep me at 100
not having the overpower talent when overpower/dreadnaught is such a huge amount of ur dmg is questionable
= n word chain
which one

based
strength in arms
he said
of*
Build is kinda cooked ngl
@wind flicker
idk
Reaping swings is throw af ngl
💪
should I get that
yes
As others have mentioned, Double Bladestorm isn't recommended because it performs worse (usually) than running Bladestorm+Warlords Torment instead. There's a few other items to point out:
- Seismic Reverberation should be avoided (it does very, very little damage, the tooltip is misleading on this talent)
- You haven't chosen either
Strength of ArmsorImproved Sweeping Strikes, which is one of our most powerful M+ talents (swap Reaping Swings for this talent instead)
Don’t use archon
merciless bonegrinder probably
💀💀💀
what else should I use
here's what I play
archon does not currently show those talents, from what im seeing
feel free to swap around fervor of battle to sudden death
Archon is bad for M+ for a few reasons but one big reason is it only shows logged keys. Not every key.
the talents i have rn
double bladestorm
is from jeventes
archon talents are these
That’s a starcraft unit
I’ve never heard of jeventes wtf
and i simmed
double bladestorm
and archon buil
d
and bladestorm had 5k dps more
they're a person here in the discord ❤️
ohhhhhhh
okay
Ah, i don’t frequent here enough to immediately recognize the name
You can always check top players on Raider.io
m+ ladders?
WoWHead has multiple builds linked in the M+ section and even has a brief description that will help explain how/when/why to use each of them. In 99% of all cases you'll just run Warlord's Bladestorm
https://www.wowhead.com/guide/classes/warrior/arms/talent-builds-pve-dps#mythic-talent-builds
he makes guides, they are good for new/returning players
Oh nice, yeah I was unaware
I legit never learned how to use Archon
That's the raid build 👍 for single target boss fights
so
warlords bladestorm?
critcake definetely does not use that in m+, that is the raid build
or aoe heavy
Warlord's Bladestorm, you'll almost never run double bladestorm
I wouldn’t go to someone’s profile, I’d look at the individual keys they’ve done on R.io
he just logged out in that build
how can I do that
Watch his last vod. He was raiding
that talent tree updates when Critcake logs out of their account, it's not reflective of what they use in m+
oh
It should just be lower on the page
?
mb
Nah it’s all good, wow has a lot of data that can be overwhelming to interpret
aoe heavy build is thr FoB build which I wouldn't recommend considering our current tier set
Single BS and Jugg are my go for builds
Jugg this week is insane
Always play single bladestorm, be an ethical gamer
Double BS is only really stronger in super add heavy keys where you have strong ST gamers
damn
Which is pretty much never
This, but that is basically never
Unfortunately 
If you want to have fun in low keys, sure
But as soon as you do a bit more serious, u shouldnt play double bladestorm
U lose i believe 30k st / prio
If you want insane numbers on big pull in AA go for it
i want to go more serious
I usually try to be the single target guy even more in Tyr week
And people don't mind
Then play the 2nd build i recommended in the guide ^^
Arms doesn't struggle with AoE really either way, even with the Juggernaut setup
Oh I was talking about the jugg one
Bladestorm by itself is very good because of hurricane
There is a prio target/cleave/st build if you need the st but you lose a lot of add damage cause no BS
But blademasters torment is a bit overkill with MBG and reaping
You lose pretty much 30k ish st
I just linked u the pic of the build i play
oh yeah
I would never play seismic, since its kinda w/e
i copied from ur vid
rn
is there anything
i should
notice
or like have attention on it to
with this build
Not more than the other one i'd say
but u said
u wouldnt play
seismic
but in this build
u have seismic
built in
Probably a mistake in exporting it
U can run it, i just like having intimidating shout
Yep thats what i run
and the rotation
im used to the double bladestorm rotation
is it very different or
Anyone know if LFR, Normal and HC drop same amount of flightstones?
I describe it in the same guide ^^
Or you could check wowhead
But basically what linc said
You just dont have 2 bladestorms anymore and u dont spam cleave anymore
kk great
no slightly different per boss kill
Makes sense, thanks ❤️
i was getting frustrated
having low dps
with 510 ilvl
also my trinket
i have cataclysmic
ánd algethat
algethar
u guys said that cataclysmic in m+ is shit
should I put
instead of cataclysmic
One on use and one passive is usually the play
I almost had to scroll to read that
my bad
But yes usually you have 1 active and 1 passive trinket
Signet brand usually aint great for m+ but if its the best you got then just wait till u get something like an incarnate icon or neltarion's trinket as secundary
you can pull a cowfarmers and get a weakaura that tracks that cd and you just heroic throw at 1 second remaining
Do people not like double bs, bc i think its much more satisfying to use tbh
Its not that people dont like it, its just worse
the cd
of
what?
Me when CF dm
aw thats big sad
cow farmers dm just dropped
you are in the seminar
do you leave while presenting to respond?
brb learning lua
powerful
To fix CF WA
You can still play it
he is too legendary
KR
fak
ik
they work normally
the KR version of cowfarmers was a pun
thats all i know
being gated by crests is annoying wish theyd have not capped us
yeah I dont raid mythic
am noob
Did u upgrade items below 509 ilvl?
I run 2 on uses rn and it's fine
noob + L + ratio
only farm 8s lol
Puzzle box + irig frag
earned 
noob sorry
That drops 506
below 456k on Smolder mythic =noob
(parses this week are a massive joke cause aug is bugged again btw)
andayaya too powerful
1st time playing arms on smolder was not my best pull lmao
how is aug buggerinod
Everything
iirc it's the same bug that happens every season so far, right?
oh
Yeah.
And in a week it'll be fixed and bad again haha
Aug buff hasn't been bad for a long time
passed the skill check nice
I hate doing damage Anda
Lmao we have identical ilvls
Guess it makes sense w the current cap
Depends if u get mythic loot
silence i simply defeated you in fyrakk
Dont think u can get that ilvl without getting atleast 1 mythic piece
silence head enchant abuser
Big blast more burst (i got cocoon x2)
First 2 inters
what
to tank circle
10 world I did good for once anda be proud 
you are a noob
I only use 1 bsl
i went 2x 
Ye I'm askin for spellward next time we do smolder fuck this running out shit
I miss fury tanking
He had some health implications recently but is doing better now
In a purely single target situation, does Nelth's Call to Chaos proc off of abilities like WW or thunderclap?
tell ur MW they get full cocoon value for cocooning u
I'm in a key w an sp who has 1 525 crafted and its well fed bro
Yes
DN as well
Like the fuck
i don't have the legendary and spent my first bullion on WII. wtf do i spend the 2nd and 3rd ones on
he is very powerful
Sweet! Thank you
if he dies a lot then its crazy value
show me a band nerd
what do u want
tbf why inv a warr to keys this week
we aren't good at dealing with either affix
sad times
tanks are the hardest thing to find tbh
how am I meant to get my puzzlebox 😦
vault like everyone else?
when u get to blast more
0 mastery bis?
and when it doesnt proc
2 times overpower and then cleave
right?
never 1 overpower and cleave
(without proc)
u need to proc ur 4set before BS
press cleave king
Sorry, new to arms, how do we 'proc' the set
crit with cleave, ms or exe
is there a way to track my 4set
you can make a wa, but i dont have one
oh right
if u just cleave enough targets itll proc
okay cool thanks
You're not gonna wait for another cleave if u somehow got 0 crits
u press cleave, assume u got it, send BS
thx
idk
man since when did arms get so complicated
fuck man
youre overthinking it
its a lot on paper but in practice its really easy
i mean
ik how to burst
but im kinda a little confused about the rota when im out of burst
Just abuse brand https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/uHgXEgAAFT5Z3yZnCfiGgo
lol
isn't it just basically ST rota with sweeping strikes?
I believe so
also as long as you have dreadnaut thing
just make sure to hit it so it hits all the adds
thats on 2 targets, or 4 with sweep
3 without sweep and 5+ is
ww > op2 > op1 > cleave > st fillers
prio list in that order
Just checking if I understood corerectly
Whirlwind, spend two overcharges, cleave
never cleave when you have two overcharges left?
its a priority list, so if u have 2 stacks of overpower press both then cleave
if only one just op then cleave assuming ww is down as well
And spread rend with tclap

another question if you don't mind, does sweeping strikes interact with cleave at all? Because it says it hits all targets and reduced after 5, so I'm thinking sweeping strikes just bumps this number to 6?
It only works on skills that hit single targets, so it doesn't impact cleave at all unfortunately.
okaaay, so me using SS into big packs and cleaving was a total int afterall
thanks
😢
Ss works with over power though on big packs
And overpower and dreadnought sweeping are great
read the tooltip
big blast more burst yep
damn soooon
OP is OP for sure.
nah op fine dn are op tho
DN is something else for sure, phenomenal
Hello guys, i have a question, i dont find anywhere an answer, if i dont have the legendary weapon, what weapon should i buy with bullions?
Read the pins about what to do. Hint: Ashk
Thank you, im new on discord so i had no idea xD
Welcome. Always a good place to check.
yall too nice in here smh fury woulda bullied bro
SMF players are dumb asses who deserve it
Hey, hey, I was a SMF player in s2
we hate smfy
Legendary 2hander available. Askkandur can be bought and boosted to mythic levels and idiots still playing with 1handers when they could play rogue or some other 1hand spec.
SMF is actually a pretty useful talent... if you want to do negative dmg and objectively blame your class
SMF… when you play Outlaw Rogue from Wish
is it possible for someone to screen shit how they havge there arms button set up so i can understand it a little better im confused with how wowhead has the rotaion
shoit
shot
The buttons on their bars or what do you mean?
yeah
i just dont get what buttons im gonna be mashing the most
i have my tier set
mortal strike execute and overpower in st
Wyrm crest drops from +2s right?
but execute only for a third of the fight
do yourself a favor and bind your abilities to get used to it
i just have this mess of buttons i wanna eliminate the ones that arent needed
its never to late to learn to bind your spells
Ye it’s different for everyone, just place em somewhere where you are comfortable to press said keybond
missed the first couple weeks of this season. is the play to upgrade the leggo to max before anything else (aspects) ?
my bars atm (no utility on bars for me)
If you have the leggo, yes, of course. Why wouldn't you?
that's what I assumed, but wanted to see what the consensus was before I blew a bunch of aspects
warr #1
$$$
full ST damage too lol
ehh shouldve switched to ST trinks i guess
wouldve done more

It's nice to see arms doing well. And even getting invited or making groups with the incorporated affix active
guys i swapped to arms
i wanna learn the rotation and do m+ 1-10 keys
what build should i go and talents?
IT's fine although you should TC way sooner than you are
Do it after your first MS in CS, use WW as well
So going into CS it'd be MS -> TC -> WW -> Rotation
should i even use WW with jugg?
bruh that name tho
can someone explain how to do the SR on nokhud?
I'm getting the first cast
but after my tank taunts boss is casting again
He has to taunt right after the boss started his cast
aight, thanks brother
Masterycake is mine
I need versatilitycake
Doesn’t roll off the tongue like the others though
hey guys how much of haste do we need ?
Speedcake
did that just happen to anyone else
No, just you
which build do we go with for mythic gnarlroot?
Ideally every 2 execute u should be mortal striking
If u have no rage use overpower
which is it?
You can SS single target rotation 2/3 mobs
The usual single target build
Single target build everything, take imo SS for council 🤷🏻♂️
doessomeone have a good vid on the rotation of arms? im trying to learn him and its super hard just trying to find someone explaining the order and how it works , a yt link or choronological order of abilities would help me immensely
Whats more prefered in keys on arms? Augury or Nelths call
What would you conisder high keys? I dont see myself going higher than like 12's/13's this season (I dont push high, just get my gear and achievements each season and done)
Puzzle box + OCE/ICON it's pretty solid for m+ Arms
ty
I need more AA keys with people who will share puzzle box. Help peasant raise in nobility please
Got my hero track puzzle box last night. Good luck friend
🫡
yo bros is it a normal details or should i use something more ?
Bleeds are kind of high here
Rend is too low compared to dw
They are about the same usually
i mean this breakdown of dots being super high could also be an algethar?
if algethar that looks more normal
maybe brack can look like that
but most other dungeons like ms should prolly be top 3
maybe top 2
I zoomed in looks like algethar
it was an algethar
IV hasn't updated yet, check the dates at the top of the page
ok ty for info ! 🙂
Did they just buff bsl lol
was a bugfix
I think they just fixed a bug
Right, but now it will be stronger, no?
no
single target but you can swap Strenght of Arms to "Imp. Sweeping Strikes" (or just keep SoA it doesn't matter)
Thoughts on Mythic Pips?
Pretty sure it's a trinket
one of the trinkets of all time
my god they're catching up to us
It happened sometimes, not perma
Think most people knew about looking at the tooltip in the buff to see if the mastery amounted to only 1 bsl
In that cause you unequip and re-equip
Until it's fixed
It should be fixed now
i would like to bribe some warrior players to help me get the hivemind
When do you use puzzlebox in arms rotation?
whats a good thing to buy with bullion after axe upgrade
Ring
the fire one? whats next after that
Seal of diurnas
Depends on your gear
And raid or M+ focus
And if you have a team for OCE/whispering or not
m+
If you run w a team thats gonna have OCE/Whisper, them, if not, there are a few options
just pugs
if op is available, op first
Cleave first to dw everything but yeah
lol all the dam is dots
weird flex
17.4% from OP/DN 
simming as arms. just always sim ST? or how do you guys go about simming aoe/dungeons?
How much in gold should I expect to spend after getting leggo?
idk what exactly it is now but prolly around 200-300k is "safe"
cant imagine it goes much higher than that currently
There are certian m+ crafts and trinkets but other then that you jst sim st
thanks! ❤️
hate arms m+ but love it in raid
but arms is giga in M+
motherlover griff where were you man , how was thailand ?
oce or icon ?
does this damage have a time or it just gets applied and lasts until mob dies?
its like 8 seconds i think?
3 dot events
lol sorry wrong server
6 seconds
For [Ominous Chromatic Essence] do I actually need to go attune anywhere or am I good?
if you don't attune it stays all stat
i must be behind bc I have no idea what's all stat
ok so there's 4 stats
and then there's all stat
which gives u a bit of all... stats
ty
just loot it?
even my alt has it

you can sim dungeon slice for dungeons, it's supported for arms now
you need to have connections and friends , you can't be best warrior alone . check critcake for example he is playing with the best ret paladin in europe and probably the best resto shaman .
same way u become the best at anything else
be obsessed
also have some high measure of talent
step 1: be kind of good at video games
step 2: dont be egregiously stupid
step 3: play a lot
not really ya Xan he can be talented , learn his way up and spend hours in playing , and blizz servers near him so he is having 1 ms latency but the issue is if he have all this but he doesn't have a social skills to interact with top players or refrences to back him up at least in the beginning of his journey he will never use his potential to the fulliest as you understand wow is a group game in the end it's not that i am the best alone . even if you relate to politics and our world some people became leaders and Ceos of some sensitive companies but these people were made and pushed to these positions by some people ( aka some people made them ) regardless of their qualifications and big talents .
yeah i mean it doesnt really matter, step 1 is just be good at the game
connections come if you are good
people will play with you if youre consistently good
^
even if ur an ahole
you don't need social skills to become good at something, especially not WoW (a surprisingly large number of high level players can be seen as an example of that!)
A whole lot of those high level players don't even talk to one another either; sure, it helps if you have someone high up to coach you/bounce ideas off of/whatever, but it is far from necessary
some of the most degenerate players ive ever heard of in this game are really good and play in pretty good guilds because they are good
pretty much
well i agree to that statement fully , but in the current way of the flux of warriors nowadays battling their way into pugs you will come to a realization that if you want to push it into the next level you should have a crew around you .
i don't have legendary yet and i bullioned WII first. wtf do i bullion second
Like most things in the world, becoming good at something is mostly an expression of time - it's all about experience and dedication
WII?
icon?
yeah
ms is just an excuse for spoiled NA people, one of the best ol rogues i ever knew play with close to 200 and clear the floor with ppl
probably an eranog ring
legendary drops next week for you so upgrade it once you get it
anything under ~400 latency is a pretty trivial concern, and there's no practical difference between any sub-100 latencies (which are what most NA players have even connecting to servers on the other side of the country)
did they guarantee it next week?
exactly
no im just praying for you
oh pog
lol
gcds alone have a latency of 100-150 lol
going over 400 latency you start to run past the max spell queue, so it actually can become measurably detrimental
1000/1500, forgot an 0 LOL
I don't really know that's true
I mean I get what you mean, but GCD and latency aren't really the same thing (also it's technically 750-1500ms)
yeah, just telling doesnt matter if you mash your keys faster, as long they are on queue ( something that wow has ) its w/e
more or less yeah
it will pop at the same time once its on queue
but yeah, most people in the US will have a sub-100ms latency anyway (barring limitations of their own ISP ofc), and any difference that low is insignificant
i agree with that to a certain extent , I mean the core thing starts within the player himself if he can sell and market his dominant performance that alone will open the eyes of other players ,but don't underestimate the power of connections/friends especially if those friends have the dedication and commitment to reach something , like if you notice critcake group since the previous two expansions they always play ( Ret , Warrior , Rogue , Shaman , and i forgot their tank name ) REGARDLESS of the meta and they always tend to dominate the leaderboards of the season by doing +30/+32 keys .
Plenty of people raid in the other continent right
Some liquid player the same I think
yep
Raid from eu on na
when i read people saying "OVER 100 ITS UNPLAYABLE"i cant help to think: jesus spoiled child...
what the fuck does "sell and market dominant performance" have to do with becoming good at something?
sounds like you're conflating skill with prestige
like real world , when you apply for a job you gotta sell or market yourself as a benefical tool or assist to the company
and they're not necessarily the same thing
depends on the company
having a time +32 literally does all of that for you
if the company is ASS, yeah, you need to sell yourself like you are on a tv show
otherwise, your skills, projects and history will talk for you
there are plenty of prestigious players who are, frankly not that great (which isn't to say they're bad, but not necessarily amazing either)
just like there are plenty of players you've never heard of who are downright phenomenal at the game
Raven you should join critcakes discord
He answers a lot of questions there
Yeah like xans
pretty often i see critcake puging and its insane how he gets insta invited lol
No name but insane at the game
what a envy

bro, i need to apply for 15 mins before getting a +10 invite and sitting on 2600
just ass
damn
dogshit season
But yeah, it sounded like you were asking about wanting to learn to be good, but it's sounding more and more like you're just looking for an avenue to prestige
Which is completely fine, but it's pretty much what Xan already said - play well and people will be inclined to play with you, which will in turn create opportunities to push higher and earn that prestige; there are plenty of communities for people looking to push and they're not all restricted to meta comps
I mean it's kinda just "making friends 101"
and probably before that too i just didnt play
idk, imo its WAY WORSE to get tanks this season, im about to quit tbh
really annoying to open the game and sit on a queue
since cant find ppl to do keys
Healer is the bottle cap for me most of the time
and i refuse to tank lol
for me is tank, healers are kinda easy
seems legit
been pugging up through +14's, havent really had a problem finding tanks......and that's with completely avoiding any ragnaros/azralon in que
talking about critcake, was watching his stream this week, he went on a uld pug and the disc priest said: fury warrior on s4, so cringe, worst dps spec in the game
LMFAO
and then he demolished the boomkin lmao
thats a good one
fury was clearly the worst dps spec in the game in st
i wanted to check your logs earlier because i saw you give a lot of advises with Jakey in Protection Channel .
idk, everytime i see him playing fury 90% of the time he tops
so not a fury issue
its not bad
im like a perfect example of the 1st archetype of player archi listed: not that great, but knows a lot of people so it doesnt matter
fury is a special class in m+ bc they lose basically 0 damage to pick up full aoe talents
also I never step foot in prot channel
silver junkrat
Xan social monster
so they naturally do a lot of st in m+ talents bc they lose a lower % compared to other classes
common lil xanarchy L
thats furys whole niche
there's a term for that: parasite
🤣

lol
listen
and never want to play with me
game is game
thurs
pog
lots of work needed but headed in the general right direction
2 patches ago yeah
it got that this xpac
at least if arms is doomed you have the shot with fury and vice versa
made them a not useless spec
if ret is doomed gg go tank or heal
historically war has WAYYY more ups than ret
arms scales
here we go
tru!!
how does that logic not apply to prot warrior as well
cuz war has 2 dps specs
wut?
what if the ret palyer doesnt tank either
if u play a 1 dps spec class and that dps spec is doggy, you cant swap to another dps spec, your choices are do an offrole, or play another class, or suck
which i mean doesnt really matter
than he is doomed
nowhere to run
lol
ok so if fury and arms are bad?
you doomed too
gg new tank
can also happen but less likely
one is gonna be better than the other every time
same thing with shadow priest
specially since bliz doesnt know what to do with that class
besides leave them monstrously op for a year
wait has it been a year
idk
might be lyingge
"so its fine"
its fine
one class
has been CLEARLY the best dps spec in the game
for 3 patches
idk, doesnt bothers me
.
if you were a shadow priest you would be 3k io
if i was a really good sp yeah
if i was a better warrior like critcake i would get insta invite
🤷🏻♂️
potatoes potatos
double tater 
never seen a point fly so far over someones head in my life
he is right tho
you can say something true and have it still be dumb
if you keep pushing to get really high rank, get group etc ( like crit does ) soon you will be insta invited too
you guys also have bugged training dummies in valk?
you dont need to be a really good sp bc the class is so inflated
idk every sp on the game to say if they are good or mediocre
the dif between a good and bad sp is really noticable. It's not a disneyland like you pretend it to be
exactly lol
you guys havent played with a good spriest
yeah i did
I did, that's why I said the dif is huge
but according to him you can just be a sp and insta join any 11-12+
lmao
go try it
yeah aoe dummies dont take dmg
Theyre on strike
man is it me or does it feel fucking bad doing 10s
on arms
in tyrannical weak]
this MM hunter in my group was doing 1.3m bust on like 6 target packs getting insta deleted
cant do anything
i mean, arms is almost half dots, sooooooo
yeah just feels really bad
stuff insta dies in decent 10 groups because they're low keys
Fortified weeks are way more fun
maybe i need to play fury this week
if another class is going to giga burst it eats into your damage
best thing to do in that case is just hold roar/avatar
use it on the next pack
if it makes you feel any better I'm over 2700 and 520 equipped and still don't get instant invites to anything
I think part of it is people don't realize arms is a legit like A tier spec
will take some time
they will learn
i think most people went back to fury as it's way easier and tankier too
doesn't help make arms look good
arms is hard?
ehhh
on a given pack you can have 5 buttons to press and not know which one
I mean fury isn't hard either but imo keeping up with current fury is harder than arms
for fury its very straigh forward
the aoe rotation is convoluted in comparison
keeping up as in apm?
nah that's the easiest aprt xd
just need to be a degen a bit
apm without overcapping
fury is the same rotation just with whirlwind
arms is practically the same rotation as well you just slot in cleave at 5 targets
what do i do
:kekw
then prio dmg
i mean you just highlighted another thing you need to keep track of
