does any1 know u have to be a same grp for icon to work in raids or it doesnt matter?
is it diurna first then the other ring?
shield ring is banger in m+, debating that over trinks
_>
shield ring over fire damage ring?
i always thought diurna was better
for dps, sure. one is free dmg the other is free healing......get both
i only have enough for one of them since im getting ashkandur today as well
if you don't have leggo, fire ring is not as good
i dont have lego
thats why you should sim
but i do have 1 x sf
you need to sim then cuz not having leggo is going to make a massive diff in what you spend on.
i know, im not home now to do that. so im just thinking out loud
ultimately it probably doesn't matter that much since not having leggo puts ppl so far behind the curve it's cringe. they really should have made it purchaseable
That would rob people of the epic experience it is working towards and receiving the weapon through killing fyrakk 15 times in a row to collecting things in the open world with an entire server full of people!
yeah, the lego is just a meme wep since integrated into the class balance, would be nice to have but not gonna break my back for it
you've just triggered my ptsd, i need to go hyperventilate into a bag now
Meme wep?
it got nerfed out of fun into balance now its a meme wep
par for the course
at that point, worrying about the relatively minor differences between buillon buys is kind of meh. buy whatever it the biggest upgrade or w/e is fun to use for you. grieftorch is a really solid option, so is the shield ring
in fact grieftorch is probably the play if you can cheese it to compete with leggo havers
i get it, but to add to my point - it should be farther ahead than what it is. me not having it shouldnt cripple my dps to bottom of the pack
it's something like a 18k dps upgrade over ahkander.....
yeah its horrid
Since I got Chromatic Essence from Normal Raid, I should grab Signet Brand with bullion now, yeah? Storm-Eater sims higher in MT and Branch sims as the best of both worlds, but I am guessing that their use effects kind of make them not worth it?
Storm-eater is too risky, you stay stuck for a long period of time
Do you raid heroic weekly?
If anything moves out of your range you are also done
Yeah, hopefully guild starts picking at Mythic once we reclear Heroic raids
lol i just simmed myself, not having leggo is a 27k dps loss.
Especially if your going into mythic
probably wrong, most mythic fights arent even lasting 5min
Will Signet be worth taking into M+ or should I stick with Grief Torch until I get something else?
depends on your guild, but it's substantially less good than sims say. need to adjust the sim for your guilds average kill time.......should have that info by now if you're doing mythic
anvil has the same issue as brand lol
not really unless u are chain pulling the whole dungeon
I'm trying to understand why wowhead is telling me to spend my bullions on whispering incarnate and/or chromatic essence. Both are below 5th place in both ST and cleave/m+ sims
not really, it is only good if you are chain pulling the whole dungeon and not losing your stacks
double stat stick 
this week its specially good, because of shades you stay in combat longer
what is our mastery softcap?
yeah so were tuned around it, not having it puts us at bottom of the pack
listen to your sims, wowhead is a general guide.....not the wowbible
good thing its already over for na and only today for eu 
interesting, once I got my Raid set all sorted out, what trinket should I look to pair with Chromatic Essence in M+?
oh yeah nvm lol
anyone know or know where to look?
iirc consensus is puzzle box
yeah, i always do that, i was just trying to understand wowhead's logic. On my sims i'm also considering full value on both trinkets
Basically, which is why i said you're probably better off not fretting over a ring that isnt going to make any noticeable difference in that gap. grieftorch actually might if you can cheese it
you stop getting mastery when sims tell u to
got it, so don't worry about using Bullion for M+ trinket until its time to upgrade Chromatic and pray for a good Puzzle Box in the vault
you guys are champs today, Banana Stickers for everyone
Hoping it doesn't backfire but I went with Augury since I pug a lot of keys. The higher level version also outsimmed all but Box on sub-5 minute ST fights. And I have HC Signet. At the worst, I'll go Fury for keys with it.
If i want to take Anvil tomorrow as first trinket, is it trolling?
anvil is not the play
Weird augury is that good for you, this is a 4min st sim
That's no oce buffs or wii buffs
now I'm curious and ran a 4m with no buffs as well
I love that trinket, also i play prot
So it's the best of both maybe
At 5 minutes, a 532 Augury and 415 Signet simmed best for me in ST. At 4 minutes, a 422 Box and 428 Augury simmed best. I didn't have time to sim more with higher Signet. For Fury MT, Augury and Box were easy winners.
Well, I suppose it's my time to go back to SL
Dont do it to yourself…
Pain
I got one for free thought id use it
Got rid of it so fast
Oh I know, I've gotten it before on another toon in S1. It's... an experience, that's for sure
I had one on rogue in s1 as well and didnt realize how good they have it being able to shadowstep during it
So many moments where you think it's good but know you can't... Or just yolo send it and somehow come out alive.
I think the most infuriating part about that trinket is when the tank moves the boss like 3 feet away
Dude LMAOO
Or mobs, whatever
if my sim is telling me that 528 anvil and Brand are bis is that bait or should I run those trinkets and ignore Icon/OCE for my bullion this week
Depends on your sim parameters. "BIS" is a myth, especially this season
That sounds about right if you aren't getting Icon / OCE buffs
Had it on my rat ret alt in S1, and used it the random times I would play in S2
Invuln made it nice, but still
I see I got anvil from raid and deciding what to spend bullion on this week I already have eranog ring and sark cloak and anvil but not sure to purchase OCE/ICON or buy a brand which the sim is telling me to do
Brand is best but the fight has to be long and it's near worthless in M+. OCE and Icon both need other people assisting you
Is it worth spending bullions on OCE if I already have it on hero track or should I just spend it on back or signet instead
thats what I was thinking
The difference in item level would be so drastically minute you’d probably benefit more from a different upgrade
Hey lads! Quick quesh:
If I have a bullion to spend, and I dont intend to raid/care about maxing raid performance, AND I dont have leggo (and are likely still a couple of lockouts away from getting it), what do I spend Bullion on? OCE/Icon seems piss due to requiring ally buffs, and the other items from the wowhead article are ST-items. Do I just send a Class Trinket?
pins
Oh, sorry! TY!
Pog, ty
Question for long-time Armed folk. is there any reason why IP is better than FbV? See it used more often.
it's proactive vs reactive
IP can let you live through a hit, and FbV only comes into play after you've already taken the hit
if the hit kills you, FbV doesn't do anything
fbv good in rot situations
then there's some current play this season around trying to help keep your health above 90% to keep uptime on Blue Silken Lining (crafted embelishment), and giving yourself a shield atop your HP can get you better uptime
IP stops one shots, which is the biggest issue in the highest keys
ty
Can you no longer PuzzyB +Bladestorm?
I could've sworn you could macro those two together back in S1
it was bladestorm activated by avatar+pb, but we dont run double bladestorm anymore
pot after box but yeah
not much point in wasting dam pot duration solving a rubix cube
Nah I mean, use PuzzyB before pulling
I do it as things are about to get together yeah
Sounds good 😄
Haven't played Arms since S1, so the rust is showing
good thing the rotation is basically the same
Hey, what trinkets are you guys getting besides puzzlebox? For me pocket anvil sims WAY BETTER than both whispering incarnate and chromatic essence (both with all ally buffs) on both ST and MT sims
Yeah, it's the same set bonus as S1
BSL and dumping rage into IP is goat.
Can be the difference between 40% and 60% uptime
Anvil is good, but actual fight lengths are going to devalue it vs your standard sim. I wouldn't pug with it in M+ either.
If you’re not running BSL and only do normal/heroic, Fbv is fine as it’s just passive healing for rot damage, as others have said
Wait, are we still rage dumping into IP? I thought I heard someone say that was dead
it's not a rotational button, it's solely used as an active defensive
Okay, good shit
For ToM it is.
Ignore pain absorbs damage, allowing you to maintain 90%+ more often for higher uptime on BSL
Got worried for a sec here
Good thing I dont plan on raiding on this toon 😛
Its 10x better in M+ then it is raiding
Since Patch 10.2, Ignore Pain no longer contributes to Tactician, Test of Might, or Anger Management
^ Thats what I heard too
Yes. I’m not saying to use ignore pain for CD reduction.
Use it to absorb damage and maintain BSL buff
ok i have both leggo upgrade already and eranog ring, trying to decide on a trinket thats decent for both arms and fury since i play both, have only done the first 3 bosses on mythic and prob wont do more than that, whats a good solid trink to use for both specs for raid and m+? im leaning towards augury since its so damn rare
Ok
I've been wondering the same thing all day
btw just got sark cloak in vault 🙂
heroic version but thats good enough
well 528 max i should say
Well it looks like cloak is the most consistent, there ya go 😎
can you share how you simmed those?
That one is Dropimizer / Vendor I think
Yeah, Droptimizer Season 4 Raid Vendors
Found it, thanks!
Mine is like this for ST
already have eranog ring
Any way I look at it Signet is the best option.
On fights 4-5+ minutes.
Otherwise Signet loses a lot. Same for keys that aren't Spiteful or chain pulled
Yeah. I'm simming 5min fights because that's our current group prog average right now.
Just keep in mind that that time will drop
Not if my group continue to be bad at raiding
xD
at 3 minute fights the cloak is better.
Make sure you are selecting the right dragonflight for chromatic essence
best case scenario (all buffs), 3 min fight.
still, loses a lot of value in m+, but then again so does signet, in tyrannical weeks.
Cap
That's for patchwerk 3min?
Signet stinks for all keys
Yes
What are your current trinkets?
Incarnate 502 - Puzzle 522
Which dragonflight are you using? Emerald?
No, haste.
Crit sims like this:
Is ruby whelp that bad if all points into haste?? No one sims it?
It takes a week to do that
Plus not great when done
Emerald or Bronze, but sims can help answer this. You can add the following to the bottom of an "advanced sim"
dragonflight.ominous_chromatic_essence_dragonflight=bronze
dragonflight.ominous_chromatic_essence_allies=azure/emerald/obsidian/ruby
copy=Emerald
dragonflight.ominous_chromatic_essence_dragonflight=emerald
dragonflight.ominous_chromatic_essence_allies=azure/bronze/obsidian/ruby
copy=Obsidian
dragonflight.ominous_chromatic_essence_dragonflight=obsidian
dragonflight.ominous_chromatic_essence_allies=azure/bronze/emerald/ruby
copy=Azure
dragonflight.ominous_chromatic_essence_dragonflight=azure
dragonflight.ominous_chromatic_essence_allies=bronze/emerald/obsidian/ruby
copy=Ruby
dragonflight.ominous_chromatic_essence_dragonflight=ruby
dragonflight.ominous_chromatic_essence_allies=azure/bronze/emerald/obsidian```
It's solid but passed by others that usually do direct damage
Cool thx
hey guys, anyone know why versa sims so good for me? Sims basically want me to take the high vers rings and neck. but i already got 3.5k. Somehow going after sims Ill end up on about 6k. wich is weird because im also already kinda low on haste and crit compared to others
You have high vers so the sims determine more vers is better for you then adding low haste/crit. Plus the leggy likes vers. As your gear improves, that vers number should level off.
Someone get Max to make a Video on Warrior Class tree so we get a cool rework
next xpac not for silly season
Ah so basically i have low gear so vers is basically better just like dmg proccs are better on low geared chars? I also do use anvil and Raszageth trinket so I have basically 3 items that benefit from vers + the firedmg ring it wants me to take. Do i get that right?
what
for context, i have almost 4k vers and will probably want even more
It would be the same if you had high crit and lower stats otherwise. Sims don't want equal stats, they want to maximize the dps of what you have
I want it for next xpac lol all i hear from big warrior brains is its underwhelming
No one will spend time redoing silly season. Next xpac already has a big workup
so i managed to pull a heroic OCE out of vault today, what stat do we normally put on it?
good to know, ty
❤️
Damn, the belt sims better than everything else lol
dungeons is M, raid is H
Its rare but not higher ilvl like broodkeeper ring
Yeah, belt still simmed better for me
Yeah, let me run it again
also did u upgraded the things in the sim?
Yup
Why is my sim lower when I do this? Cause it doesn't give me raid buffs or something?
got a link?
Irid frag outsimming puzzle for me now in AOE, so odd
That's a W tbh
hmmm that's interesting, lemme see what i can find
Yeah just weird, didn't see it coming
My bad, I changed to only dps and forgot to change it back. With all the buffs whispering is indeed better than the belt
only if you drop combat
||which is like at least half of these keys
||
yeah figures
i was surprised a belt is better than icon
so in the result that is just your name it appears it sims you as Black Dragonflight with zero other buffs (ie: no other party members with any other buffs)
Signet pretty juice also if you have a tank that doesn’t take a smoke break between pulls
unsure why it's lower than the quicksim, trying to find that next
u ppl have hrothmar working overtime here lmao
lol
He usually ends up answering a lot of questions
Yeah I was just ignoring that bottom one as I assumed it was a no buffs deal for some reason
With great power comes great responsibility
truers
What are you guys spending your third pair of bullions on?
Im thinking about either getting a icon or sig, I don’t have anything else really to buy
next week im getting sark cape prob
Actually I tank periodically but there’s also some cool xmog from the single token vendor I could buy. Like the Lfr Smold sword
Im thinking ashkandur or augury since leggo didnt drop and i play both arms and fury
I’m debating between brood ring and OCE
Clearing all content before spending bullion
Unless vault has one of them
Then I’ll buy the other
interesting, it seems like it doesn't cast puzzlebox for some reason 🤔
I have puzzlebox and myth icon
Also both erranog and broodkeepers ring
Oh that is weird. The arrow is within 400dps of puzzy b so I can just run it back with that instead
Who are we attuning to with OCE?
yeah it's like, not even listed as an simple action stats apl thing there. The left is the advanced sim, right is quicksim
well, it is listed in the APL, it just wasn't cast*
didnt even realize i COULD sim that thank you!
Indeed! It’s at the bottom of the page
With 2x BSL, broodkeeper ring should be big for upptime, right? 🤔
Even robot tired of using box 
What food/flask/rune are you guys running for raid and m+?
Eggs/corrupting rage/howling
@barren hill big fan how do you do so much damage
@halcyon breach also big fan
🤥
@swift crown biggest fan
Corrupting on huge keys double dot
Yeah, raidbots sims crit+haste food as default instead of primary
Ya, because you get more secondaries than you get primary, on top of strength not being the highest value stat for warriors
lol +5 dps for food
Interesting been sleeping on that
i just get the deviled eggs fuckit
i hate how is the scaling of main stat not fixed or intended this way, its so ass
it's fun to optimize, even if it is by just a little
What do you guys think is the best two trinket combination for m+?
The flasks are the biggest one but hk early food is a drop in the bucket
PB pretty huge pre big pull
Puzzle Box + Stat stick
Like Icon/OCE or Pips
Depends on your group, Pips if you just perma pug and want consistency
Class trinket also option, but would not use it in push content
On primal council, you would mortal strike with sweeping, cleave when no sweeping?
Call was also high in there but yeah I think stat stick is better than call for keys
Without sweep, cleave will do more if you’re hitting all 4
Is the fire ring worth getting even if i dont have Fyrakk legendary?
And is it worth for me, i have 6 kills on fyrakk, to wait until legendary drop or should i just buy ashkandur? like is the differance big or small?
sim it. (hint, it's big. probably like 30k dps)
me trying to figure out how my shikaari arrowhead is still simming better than any other trinket i've gotten all season
August?
ok thank you
2 active trinkets came out simming higher. any idea how to use ?
That's not like an official date or anything it's just when remix ends there isn't an offical date besides "fall"
Use stat buffs with CDs, direct damage on use after CDs
trying to gather about oce vs icon from my guild
I get told its a joke season
I really regret picking OCE now
Does arms follow the ST rotation but just using SS when theres two targets. Or do you only MS after getting overpower stacks
the former
Also, when you sim trinkets, raidbots also sims trinket use order, trinket 1->trinket 2
double on use is aids
are we getting another 3 bullion this week as well?
why would we
idk we did this week 😄
we are not
😢
honestly, it was probably something they forgot about and just let it slide lol
🤣
OKAY. So, I got 1st bullion leggo (duh), second - eranog ring. I have a heroic OCE, but i see everyone using puzzlebox, even tho it "sims" lower than everything. Sims say get signet brand, but sark cloak is an option.... help?
Brand is purely for raid and on end of raid fights that last long enough
It's not a general use trinket
Sark cloak is typically also just seen as a last purchase
Personally I'd buy Broodkeeper ring considering your trinkets, then farm Puzzle Box and use it together with OCE
The anvil can go up to 515, which is decent as well.
Yeah, but I'd not use Anvil in any scenario that you wouldn't use Brand in
They both suffer from the same issue of wanting longer fights
ya, it's just what i have so far
I'm going for the second ring for sure, trinkets are just too spread across the 3 specs to make a decision right now
critcake runs puzzlebox, so it must be OP
Ring is good for prog//reprog
That shield is just too yummy in pushing m+
anyone got the OCE quick sim string for simming the different stats?
.....
arms owns
so....assuming i ran this right, obsidian or ruby would be best?
not too shabby for only an 8 RLP
(assuming i have the other 4 buffs)
can you send me the string for the simming different flights
So if I've only had one heroic fyraak kill so far would the answer just be to spend bullion on Ashkandur?
how do i sim it for solo content/no other OCEs?
yes
unless you are irish
I do not have a golden horseshoe stuck up my ass sadly.
send help
ruby would sim best for me
but i ran the sim correctly? i did as i was told and stuck the extra text at the bottom of my sim input so i ASSUME i did it right?
you need god at this point
this feels so cooked
ok so, i bought the upgrade for my axe and the diurna's chosen ring
i got STUPID lucky and got both a hero track oce and hero track signet brand from vault (signet last week, oce this week)
what should i buy with my bullion this week?? sark cloak? I don't want to buy fillial duty yet b/c i have a flavor pocket on my titanic insight ring
i wouldnt even waste bullion on the shield ring unless ur doing high keys like 13+
unless u keep dying hten nvm
i feel like sark cloak + shield ring go really well together as the ring would cover the cloak's lack of stamina??
the consumable you get from fyrakk doesnt do anything right?
REGARDLESS i don't 'need' really good trinkets anymore so i'm wondering what else i could buy
consumable?
the....greater ember?
it increases your chance at getting the axe the following week
doesnt actually do anything
wait are u using brand on M+?
no no please, im not that big of a masochist, i have a champ track puzzle box
Don’t use brand in m+ unless you have 0 Down time In the dungeon
lol
i think yea the best thing for u is prob sark cloak unless u want to increase items to mythic
well unless you can peak into the game code to see what the embers are ACTUALLY doing, none of us can say for certain EXACTLY what they do (speaking from a philosophical standpoint)
Honestly it’s all within 0.1%, I think figuring out what other people in your potential group or guild run would be more beneficial
Is the Voice of the Silent Star cloak actually any good? I'm hearing the proc rate is super low, esp. if my primary content is M+.
Confused why it's put so high on the boullion purchase list.
as far as we can tell from deduction, the greater and lesser embers increase your odds the following week
that is also what i am trying to do. I am trying to figure out what my guild group currently has, and then what would be best for me running solo/no other buffs
because that's the really cool thing about this trinket: you can change the stat it gives you 😄
i never herd about that
We have so many stats right now I find a lot of things are “your into DR anyways”
the proc trigger resets the stacks everytime combat ends, and it requires allies taking damage consistently to proc up to 10 stacks before you get the buff.
SO i will grab sark cloak. ty for the insight guys
but i still have a question; how the heck do i sim myself for what OCE stat would be best for me with no other OCE buffs?
ehhhh hmmm then ya prob bad in m+
So i bought leggo and ring. Thinking OCE next but im not sure what to get
i picked the lowest of the 3 stats so i went mastery
i am actually really interested in this
It’s free damage and the highest str cloak you can get (being able to go 535)
so assuming a purely offensive perspective, yeah regardless of the proc, it gives you the most offense
so what trinket is the most viable for fury and the other two specs
why is ur crit so high?
proc would just be icing on the cake
< buy sark cloak and catalyst it
PROBABLY an OCE or similar stat stick?
every class likes stat sticks
Augury can be used by all 3 specs
So.. I just started on leggo quest... for the "handling" part.. do i just run around emerald dream hoping to find rare mobs?
Does it work?
it did in s2
go do the dream surges
wait for the plant rare to show up by killing mobs
dream surges?
Well it turns it into a myth track version of the original tier cloak
go find some rares and then join WB to server hop around
Superbloom last mob can be linked to.
Every 30m or so when the event pops up to get the blue seed, you can link to that big lasher.
u can re kill same rares same day still gives u the item
That too
there's an event that pop up that has you kill mobs to summon a lasher, as long as you don't loot the mobs you can spawn it infinitely until the event ends, happens every 30-45 minutes I think?

ah superbloom finalboss is a rare , i see
Lasher counts as a rare so you can spawn like 3-5 of them per event
^
while waiting for supperblooms do the other quest and turn them in... i did stupid and did all 3 then turned them all at once
Expect to spend a full day doing the quests
i completed it in around 8 hours
8 hours sounds about right
yeah
🤓 8 hours is a day
i always looted mobs, still got multiple per event
Gotta factor in chicken nugget runs
looting mobs pushes the event further to completion, if you loot too many you'll prematurely end the event
Can anyone help with my question about the buillion?
What is
About catalyst the cloak?
Would need someone to check that has it
bought leggo and ring. not sure what to get next. probably a trinket
No the catalyst works. i looted it on my rogue and checked
m+ or raiding?
Your trinkets are alright
m+ mainly
trinket if you're certain you're sticking with arms, otherwise rings
For M+ definitely replace signet brand
atm the amount of crafted stuff we can do is just 2 right?
Neltharions call, OCE, Incarnate are good options
Yes
ughh
3rd spark next week
I'm holding off on trinkets, maybe fury gets another pass of tuning and I can swap
Is OCE good to buy? is it not very reliant on others having it?
i ahve a 496 belt and imma just craft the belt
Neither require others, but they benefit from it. And a lot of people use OCE I’ve been noticing
oce great, but requires others to use it, good in raid, less effective in m+, same goes for icon to a lesser extent
OCE is pretty reliant on other people having it, at least for my sims it's kinda low mid with nobody but with 1-2 it gets much better.
fully stacked it's just the best
still an amazing passive..
I might just force my friends to buy it too
If you don’t want either, Neltharions call is alright too
a lot of ppl this week are buying trinkets so might be a great oce week or whispering
Or buy your 2nd seal
nah i dont want the other ring just yet
It depends on how many specs actually want OCE
I already bought my second ring, feels good son
IIRC most casters are going Tindral at least
also i wonder how many ppl are going to keep playing once MOP remix comes out this thursday
get your pugging in before then that's for sure
Ill be coming on retail to raid mythic thats it
maybe on monday to do vault
I'll burn out on mop quickly enough with daily lockouts
The levelling is accelerated yeah?
yea
thank god
but when i did it on PTR it was ehh
scales with your cloak I think? up to something like 300%
I will grind out MoP until the Tmog is over. Do not challenge my collection tism.
yea
so at first it's not huge
^
Anyone seen what the warrior sets are going to look like?
TWW? or MOP?
You mean the WW set? It's a Mountain Thane looking one
im going DK tank/frost just to mess around
Thinking maybe mage
MoP is just the old sets / the Trading post set but red
iirc
It doesn't really matter, you can collect everything on one character
^
I'm going in, getting my tusks then walking out
wait so i can collect warrior armor as mage for the tmogs etc?
Yes, the item to use doesn't care what class you are. The Tmog does
thats class
Im thinking dev voker
1% drop rate on retail and I don't farm legacy content
what!?
they implementing that into TWW i seen
i have all of legion raids transmogs and draenor
oh sorry, apparently it's an actual drop rate of 0.1-0.3%
ah god damn
After many years of fruitless farming, I bought Tusks on the BMAH for like 180k
Anyway goodnight all. Best of luck with vault/Vault drops

They were on the BMAH for like 6 days in a row. First couple sold for like 2 mil each. Then price kept dropping. I finally got 'em on like day 5
do we get another crafted piece this week or is it next week ?
Next I think
Next
I did 10-32 in ~7hrs on PTR (spent a lot of time doing heroic dungeons at a low level. Not the best as you have no abilities lol)
10-70 in 2-3 days likely extremely achievable. Heroic Scenarios I think was the best XP/Hr but you’re missing out on rewards by not completing the campaigns sooo
tfw you convince your healer and havoc dh buddies to pick up OCE with you for m+
Tell them NOT to get one
Whats the most reliable setting to sim cleave/dungeon dps on raidbots? Is dungeon slice reliable?
Any AOE sims can be sus but youc an use DS as Arms. Or the normal top gear for M+ parameters
Black Market Auction House
ah, bmah is the bm ah
i feel like a dumbass for not putting the 2 together
brain is fried from work
Wym by the normal top gear?
the option that says top gear
turn off buffs you don't get in a key, 5 targets. 60/90 seconds are the normal.
But on top gear you select what kind of fight style you want, or is it another top gear option?
Top gear still Just changing targets, time and buffs
damage amp go hard on lego
So target dummy or patchwerk with 5 targets? Not sure if it makes a difference
patchwerk. Same as your normal top gear. Just change targets, time and buffs.
I do 2m 1s as I get higher in keys
insane vault
Damn
insane, but sucks you can only choose one. depends on how u look at it
yeh
icon has leech too but ima take OCE
i havent seen anyone take icon
Problem with Icon is a tank is never going to just have one, and a healer probably won't either. It would have to be something a guild instructs them to do. OCE at least is pretty good for a few DPS specs
i thought icon was good for arms?
On my sims a fully upgraded Call to Chaos falls behind OCE by only 1k assuming all buffs are taken in a M+
Sure Icon is. But both Icon and OCE require other people to get the actual value out of. Otherwise they are just middle of the pack at best.
I feel like a lot of people are getting oce though
And Icon is pretty bad on tanks and healers. They would only pick it up specifically to buff the DPS. And you need a tank and a healer to have one to get the other two types of buff.
Sme thing for OCE in ST. Call to Chaos is like 600dps behind it for me
OCE at least just requires the 5 colors, which can be done by DPS alone.
what are 2 best trinkets for M+ for arms
OCE + puzzlebox iirc
What if i hate puzzlebox ?
Idol I guess
3 sec cast time blows for 3 min cd
It's a 30s duration lol
Is blazebinder hoof (or something like that) dead or something ?
signet brand is such a bait
It sims well for me
Sometimes it feels crazy and others it feels like it does nothing at all.
On m+ depends on your group, you need to chain pull constantly and never lose combat for it to be good
Honestly, I’m thinking about getting anvil instead.
Anvil has the exact same problem
Not really, signet is technically a proc chance and anvil is a button you click.
Anvil is much more consistent on how much it does.
If you are not stacking it and keeping the stacks up you lose a lot
He’s saying that you can play well and keep anvil up between packs easier
i like Anvil way more than Signet
Keeping signet between packs is much harder
Anvil is like a 15 second grace period but you can kill critters or activate it to boost it. Which is fairly doable in a pug. Signet falls off so fast.
If you activate it out of combat it renews the 15s?
That's neat
Anvil feels better in most cases.
I don’t know, I have only really done that in World. But the active I have used to keep it rolling. Just don’t use it when everything is almost dead in case you need to go longer.
I also heard of people using toys that spawn stuff to keep it up, but I don’t think those work in M+ either.
ugh
How does warr proc Seal?
I went Augury. it sims well enough at high ilvl. At worst, I go fury for keys wjhich is simming higher ATM anyway
Axe.
Leggo
Fyralath and helm enchant
legendary helm enchant
I didn’t want to be sad but I am
And shadowflame patch if u have
Cuz I no leggo
Helm enchant and leggo
Without the leggo it’s not great. Still better than a regular ring.
I’m rocking some 522 crap from Nokhund don’t judge
Yo idk who needs to hear this but if u ur using brand or anvil in keys u can taunt critters 2 keep u in combat
It still goes up to 535 so it's good even if the effect is not proccing that much
eranog ring doesnt go to 535 does it
Hax
Spiteful is a good week for anvil enjoyers i imagine
No, only the other one
Nah the shield ring goes up to 35
Erenog ring is just a giga vers ring. Which is alright cause you can get your crit / haste from your actual gear.
It’s around 40, but if the robot commands more crit items I obey.
I'm at 43.7% crit chance, 33% haste
Preach. 🧎♂️➡️🧎♂️➡️🧎♂️➡️
The robot is telling me to get mastery
im at 45 44
I wonder why
oh another week where warriors dont get picked for mythic plus due to lack of interaction with affixes lol
Is that unbuffed or w. Crit phial lol
unbuffed

with crit phial and weapon rune
I need some crit haste pants ...
or probably haste verse pants
i think next crafted will be a neck with well fed
Wrathstone simming 4.8k dps less than puzzle box at the same ilvl seems pretty wild..
W. 50% crit u can rename 2 coinflip..
Just did an AA 10 and a 415 Augury did 4.8% of my damage. BS build.
God I cannot wait for well fed again
is storm-eaters boon hasted?
So, in my raiding group we have 4 people using whispering and 3 using OCE. Do I still buy OCE with my bullions?
the greatest dillema of all
Sim it
oce or icon
that looks like an abysmal stat distribution
your haste and crit are DR'd to hell while you arent even close to versa and mastery's first threshold
ya that mastery is hella low
No, but it does typically last less than 10 seconds anyways
Since the root ends when you die
any reason why shadowed belt clasp is a dps loss for me?
that is stamina and has 0 impact on dps
What do you mean by it being a dps loss?
Are you doing sims and seeing a DPS loss that is within the margin of error for RNG?
link the sim? it prob just sims within margin
oh i didnt even read it, its actually a -56 dps loss for me
ye that's margin
So, the way that sims work is that they simulate the fight over and over and over to account for random stuff like procs and crits
So you will see variance, they aren't perfectly accurate, it's just an average of a lot of iterations
yeah that makes sense, ive just never seen it lol
thats why you will quite often see different gems coming out on top when simming same gear
if that ever made you wonder
@lone imp 

when I've simmed myself and gems it doesnt say gem anything different.
im such a noob wtf is bsl?
blue silken lining
bitch slapping lips
519 warrior 520 WW ... 504 BM hunter
big
oce is on mastery atm (27% without OCE) should i throw it on crit instead?
anyone know how i can get their names to show all the time instead of targetting to see the name
i dont use elvui, i use the standard blizz ui
options>search bar: "names" > all NPC's
ty ❤️
so if I don't know who all I can stack icon with is it still worth buying it instead of chromatic essence?
OCE has been a massive dmg increase for me
idk much about icon to give a opion on really
If this primarily for m+ and you don’t have a set group then better to go for Call of Chaos
what fight
because I still am using the ember of nullification from last season. I primarily do M+
m+ do box+OCE,nelth, icon
either way OCE nelth icon is a great dmg buff its not a MASSIVE difference
alright I guess OCE it is
TWW is more than likely in september/oct
Last I heard it was August, might be outdated info
then thats like 10+ also might get another +2 bullion quest weekly
yeah there is one more double buillon quest in june
sorry I stand corrected there are two more
just erranog lmfao
padded on adds?
not really i ss adds and held my first set of cds
i kinda just dropped them when they came up
am i the only one having projected texture issuues ?
they are enabled in graphics
Does the lego benefit from the mastery from puzzle box? I dont think so but want to be sure
- I got a ST trinket now. if I understand it correctly, You can reset the uptime by using it out of combat before it fades?
Whispering Incarnate or Chromatic Essence?
ofc not
doesn't benefit from our mastery either
Only thing leggo benefits from is haste, it casts faster. nothing increases the damage
that is what I had thought but I was questioning my own intelligence
Oh yeah, I meant from buffs and skills
Like colossus smash
Doesn't increase how much damage it does
Correct
does anyone know the total number of wyrm crests you get from a full heropic run
Druids provide us fyr'alath damage so
I think it's 15 crests per boss
It's 10
I just killed raza and it dropped 15 so I guess yeah
lmao I don't get it at all, how are these rings a dps loss for me
my current rings are 506, i set these eranog and filial ring to 528 and they're bad for me
are your current rings socketed? do you have leggo for eranog ring?
could be several things
Sooo, whispering incarnate or chromatic essence?
no sockets, only head ench would enable the eranog ring but I still figured 22 ilvl would be an upgrade
depends on stats, like if you have all your haste from your rings then losing that is big
Augury is pumping in raid. averaging almost 8% of damage
sup, for M+ dps improvements, do you guys sim dungeon slice of just patchwork 2-5 targets?
okay makes sense
if the hardest content you do is your weekly 10 key what trinket would u pair with puzzle box? anvil sims 2nd highest after signet brand
is fatality able to crit or am i getting unlucky?
can't crit
Neither Anvil nor Signet are particularly M+ friendly; it's easy to lose stacks
I'd suggest something more static - OCE / Icon can be good if you have others running it, Pip's is also a solid choice for pugs when there aren't OCE / Icon buffs
ty
Guys does someone have or use a cancel aura for fyralah weapon?
what build u guys run on diurna?
Sims wants me at 7633 haste lol
this one?
depends which part of the fight youre doing
boss
thats what i run yeah
on council can tweak a little or the same?
should I take OCE if there's only 3 of us using it?
i did the same for council
double augies i pressume?
changed for any boss?
no idea
double augies on smolderon is what i'm gonna assume with like ashes or something like that
i dont really
was raz
I think during the shield?
prob during the shield
ah ye that also makes sense
i would not run this on council. very not optimal
but no augers during the pop
yes, whatever the top ranking arms players are running. copy that, go to warcraft logs. rankings, arms, primal council
fair lol
i could find it for you, but it's nice to learn these things for yourself
why do i see ppl run thunder ring vs unstable
several explanations. 1 they don't have both rings. 2 they have too much of a certain stat and that ring is better. pretty simple
stats aren't "just stack crit haste"
Augury continues to rock it in raid. Very happy and a little surprised by it.
How good is Eranog ring without the legendary? Wondering if there is a better early bullion purchase or if its still best
when should we stop at haste?
mm kk
LFR drops bullions right
where do you see it tell you to stop on haste
yea
how can i check the build based on the logs?
sim gems and enchants, if the sim tells you to go certain gems enchants then you know. there's no specific percentage we're looking for
Are ground effects bugged for everyone?
Still good. Helm enchant also procs fire. Shadowflame too.
down here for specific people
tytyty
i think my guild wants to focus s4 instead of pandaria remix

why would u take s4 seriously
no is wtf?
Sim has me at gear adding to 7810 haste. Its different for everyone
yea i think im just a tad confused why a haste vers back and boots are better than haste/mastery/crit back and boots
gotchya, tyty
a bunch of people in our raid can't see them for some reason
there was a lot of yolo'ing on council lmao
There seems to be deadzones or something, like some areas you do get a reticle, others you dont
oof now on broodkeeper
Must be some x,y shenanigans going on with the textures
/cast [@player]
can't fuck up what I don't control

same with our raid, tank couldnt see the stun frontal on brood and a bunch couldnt see fire/lightning
not everyone tho
you can try setting multisample to none and doing a reload, my team was able to see them afterwards
Was a good choice I love it
ive done so many keys today and there a lot of ppl running OCE im glad i took it
ty i share
good luck out there!
:3
Hi everyone 🙂 people, i just come back to the game since S2 what are we getting from bullion as a M+ Only player ?
we have a new channel where Archimtiros is sharing information like this in a more accessible way, you can check out the post on Bullion suggestions, including M+ ones here:
#updates-midnight message
Ty mate 🙂
of course! Welcome back and let us know if you have any arms questions 
ok, nobody raid tomorrow till after these lock in
boss damage #1
it's just cause it's been 3 weeks since this raid, so we have a lot more gear
and raiding relatively early in the week
hmm I wonder what that circle is for!
i only feel good about my parses today
shush 
last week I saw something similar, where WCL didn't seem to be accurately comparing performance against parses from the same evening (on reset day). Our whole group got 100s, and they didn't majorly shift until the next morning when everything locked in and parses got halved
its a normal anvil its just to bring me back to speed 
PIPIPIPI
not on the overview page (which we've seen before), but on the individual boss breakdown pages
Wtf Archi playing arms

Ikr
god i love @ocean pond
nooooo my average 
these bosses are flopping so hard idk how many ups we're doing
Yeah we spent legit 15 minutes explaining kurog to the new people
and 1 shot it lol spent twice as long talking about it
im happy that since we're all giga juiced its possible to kill kurog b4 2nd intermission
Yeah that was nice
should i run 2x sf if i dont have lego? i have diurna ring
you do have helm enchant
i pug too much to have bsl be worth it for me i feel like
I have wrists/bsl neck
Even with 40% uptime, still simmed higher than vers wrist and 1 BSL
My average uptime in m+ is above 60%
maybe ill make 1 bsl and just keep my 525 sf pc
all natural no embellies gamer
Natty gamin
pog champ
Zyzz the legend
100% natty
we're currently trying to remember how to do dathea sparks lol
also same, we talked about Kurog for 5m then 1 shot it
Dude dathea is the worst boss
We did a couple pulls and people didn't really know what to do going up and dunking and stuff
so we said fuck it we ball, and just didn't go up
Heroic?
mythic
At least u can zug mythic
LOL
We fully did
how nasty was it?
we're fine with the going up, but the weird dunk order is something I legit don't remember
I tripped near the end
Dathea is a dogshit boss ngl
Yeah he lived a little longer lol but waters blasts he's a homie
That is a healthy competiton
Yeah honestly I've never played with another brown man that made me sit up in my seat and try to game, so I enjoy playing with him
He dunked me on kurog too lol https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/Rmhvxzpd6A8jZkYt#fight=15&type=damage-done
The warrior in my last guild was dogshit so it was just annoying tbh
Yeah having a competition really brings u up
That used to be me back in SL on ret
But im glad two arms are on top of the charts
(Buff arms)
What's funny is we both normally only play fury so we talk non stop trying to figure out wtf we are doing lol
Does any1 know how much dps gain is when u have a fully upgraded leggo
whats opener with lego just send it before avatar/cs?
Can anyone explain to me why this magamatusk trinket sims so high compared to the Neltharion trinket? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/iA1MnFcN6FojPPMkqezoET
Bloodmallet has the Neltharion trinket ranked super high, but the sim for my stats doesn't quite have the same effect.
Upgrading my leggo from 515 to 535 sims as ~25k dps increase by itself.
noob question, for the bs build, do you save avatar for TR & BS or do you fire off TR off cd and allign with BS
Find the build annoying waiting for avatar all the time
Thank you
off cd, no point in grabbing the cdr talent for TR if you're not gonna use it. if you don't have uproar ofcourse you send with avatar everytime
thanks
whats the command to check in game the embers?
so i found the command and its /dump C_CurrencyInfo.GetCurrencyInfo(2784)
trying to figure out what it means
guess it means i have a 9% extra chance to get it from lesser embers
My guildie who plays prot pally got on his first heroic fyraak kill
gg
Lifes fair
Puzzlebox angle? Strictly M+ wise. My current trinket options to pair are Irideus 522, 522 Blazebinder hoof and lower box (515). ST sims say Trampling+Lower box by a fair bit, DSlice says Trampling+Irideus which is why I'm asking as I see most top arms run puzzy instead.
yo guys, are we running 2 embellishments?
should be yes
This should help you out:
https://www.wowhead.com/guide/classes/warrior/arms/bis-gear#crafted-gear-for-arms-warriors-in-dragonflight#best-embellishments-for-arms-warriors
Unless u are completely natty gamin
haha
i just havent crafted my second embellishment yet
but i've been slamming lately
feels great
arms is so good rn i love it
Im glad ur enjoying arms!
W ?
Im playing both specs after fury buff
That's a good mog!
man..
what do you guys think for a second trinket to go with puzzlebox if im playing both arms and fury? was thinking either pips or icon?
Links to relevant sims, would appreciate input for keys, not doing raiding really.
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/sgv8gqTdqkXtNzxuiD9BQs
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/6rQgvYijPobXvxV4BGNNh2
i'd take myth puzzlebox, sims wont accurately reflect the value of it for big aoe pulls
feels good to hit a 1.3m mortal strike
zug zug
That does make sense. What about pairing it up, would you go Puzzle/Irideus or Puzzle/Blazebinder's? Both being 522.
fuckin flung off edge
had like 400k dps b4 i died pre execute phase
ended boss at 282
just kill me

legendary is absolute bait on some bosses, i used it on the stone dude boss with the arms in timewalking ulduar earlier at the start of the fight and it put me off the edge and i felt like a freakin loony tunes character
only thing missing was me waving at the camera before i fell down and died
what is the macro for BS and puzzle box?
u need to have blademasters torment and u just put both in a macro
avatar that is
not bs
just like
/cast avatar
/cast puzzlebox
can either write out full name of puzzlebox
or like /use 13 if its in first slot
this is 100% the best raiding experience, had it for the first cpl years I started mythic raiding but now ive been alone for longer than I ever had brown competiton 
Thats right! its Avatar not BS that does it Thank you
guys
i've been unlucky with trinkets
and since i boost raid i had to buy grieftorch with builion
my second trinket is rumbling ruby from terros mythic
now i wnat to buy augury for my fury dungeons, do you think it performs well on arms raid?
since it doesnt give str?
sim it 
is there smth besides legendary and shadowflame embelishment to proc ring fron eranog?
Head enchant does too
oh ok cuz dont have any of those 2 and think if its even worth by now to take ring from bullions
so if i wnat to play both fury and arms and my current 528 trinket is manic grieftorch
what u guys suggest i spend builion on
so theres that
My brother just run a droptimizer.
yes but for example droptimizer says my best trinket is cata from smolderon which doesnt do well in m+ and short fights
i need to go based on knowledge here
Puzzlebox + another trinket; Icon and OCE's value is pretty dependent on who else in the group is running one, so for M+ you're probably better off going something like Pip's or Augury (unless you know someone in the group is running one of the stat sticks)
Pip's is better for Arms, Augury for Fury, so pick your poison if you're going that route
And honestly Ruby isn’t even all that bad if we are strictly speaking M+ pulls either. Like for mine if I do dungeon slice it pulls decently far ahead.
nah i need an all arounder, i boost heroic raids most of the day thats why i bought grieftorch with builion
But eh, went Augury because it’s ok in both ST and M+ and has the backup of being major BIS for fury
people die and you pew pew
Ruby isn't bad that's true; I wouldn't spend bullion on it though, at least not at this stage
but its bad for both specs
If you are looking for that there isn’t a clean answer. Each have their pros and cons and there is no just better options unless OCE or Icon is stacked.
Puzzlebox is good for both, as is OCE and Icon; but again that's dependent on whether there are other buffs available. There isn't another 'all rounder' that benefits both specs equally unfortunately
