but damn back in shadowlands id fall asleep doing the rotation when stat weights were crit mastery

#

could make a sandwitch inbetween GCD's

quaint otter
tacit gate
#

i'll get it right, i only skimmed archim's guide on arms so far, if i have more questions i'll come back

ornate juniper
#

nothing beats the sound mortal strike makes when you cleave it with ST tho

quaint otter
ornate juniper
#

since i dont play monk ill have to disagree FingerGuns

quaint otter
#

U should try

ornate juniper
#

nah i have too many alts as it is

quaint otter
tacit gate
#

what I've understood is arms is more of the slower DoTs dependent spec with rend and deep wounds, but I have much to learn because I'm still thinking in the mindset of speedy gonzales

quaint otter
#

Dunno arms is spammy af rn

shadow ibex
#

its pretty fast this expac

#

its def GCD capped

ornate juniper
#

if you want slow go feral keks

quaint otter
#

Even more than ever

shadow ibex
#

i hate spammy arms sadge

ornate juniper
#

i love it

#

mortal strike go brr

tacit gate
#

yeah in the past what I hated was the dread of running out of rage it just made me feel vulnerable

ornate juniper
#

too bad they are gutting rage generation for arms in War within

quaint otter
tacit gate
#

what do you mean gutting?

#

dont scare me like that

quaint otter
#

Making it less

tacit gate
#

why would do something so stupid?

quaint otter
#

So arms wouldn't be fury 1.5

ornate juniper
#

because were overcapping on rage

#

90%

#

of the time

tacit gate
#

sigh, we'll find a way to adapt, we always do

#

fun detected, fun deleted

quaint otter
#

I guess would be proper ms line if i had pi

ornate juniper
halcyon breach
#

Makes mortal strike have a 20% chance to reset its CD on its own cast

#

The second best is a spoogie or a boogie

#

Both very good options

#

Actually even better than the first option

ornate juniper
#

oh yeah budget mortal combo

quaint otter
#

It's not budget

#

U have to spend rage on the proc

#

So its expensive af

ornate juniper
#

just spent 4 min on a dummy using it, dont know how i feel about it, need to use it in a key or raid to see if i like it or not, you would drop storm of swords for it presumably.

halcyon breach
#

You only use it in raid, and you drop bloodborne for it

#

On average it's about the same, but it can highroll and do more than what Bloodborne would do

ornate juniper
#

surely its only pure st then

halcyon breach
#

Every raid fight rn more or less is pure ST

#

With exception of Broodkeeper really

ornate juniper
#

would it still fare the same on bosses like experiments where you want sweeping strikes uptime?

halcyon breach
#

You'd pick that node regardless of having EB or not

#

Be it for Improved Sweep or Strength of Arms

ornate juniper
#

what i mean is does EB and bloodborne fare the same in two target cleave as it does in ST as you stated?

#

guess ill just sim it

halcyon breach
#

The more consistent targets you have, the better Bloodborne would be, but 2 target cleave is essentially the same as pure ST, in particular when with good enough raid dps, they get cleaved down fairly fast

#

Have not personally cared enough to run sims on how big the difference is, I simply just run EB for almost all raid fights regardless with few exceptions

ornate juniper
#

its more curiosity if anything, arms build has been the exact same in raids for the last 4 seasons so variance is always welcome

#

could always run Spiteful serenity keks

#

rather interestingly on a 5 min fight its a 7% dps loss

#

nvm 0.7%

#

too tired for this shit

manic stirrup
#

arms has a ton of extra rage

#

ignoring your classes resource isnt really great gameplay

hardy hare
#

dont you always want 2 overpowers up before a MS

dire hinge
#

no, overpowers are optional

hardy hare
#

ah thought they increased the dmg of MS?

dire hinge
#

you want 2 overpower buffs before you press Cleave in AoE though, but not for MS

#

they do, but its not worth it to hold over MS

hardy hare
#

ah didnt know

dire hinge
#

In execute you hold MS for two Execute buffs, but not OP

hardy hare
#

so excute phase

#

dont put up an OP

#

just execute and MS

dire hinge
#

no

#

sorry in a key one sec

hardy hare
#

well i meant 2 execute buffs

dire hinge
#

in execute you still use OP because of Strenght of Arms to get rage back

hardy hare
#

1 or 2 OPs?

dire hinge
#

use OP if you're below 40 rage during execute
Execute over 40 rage
Ms if you have 2x Execute buffs

hardy hare
#

sounds good

#

sorry used to fury lol

dire hinge
#

oh you're fine! perfectly normal question

hardy hare
#

thanks

#

what trinkets are bets

#

best

hallow turtle
#

4+ min signet/ OCE (with full buffs)
Short fights probably puzzle box and OCE

hardy hare
#

thanks

#

hmm should i keep anvil and get a ring for now or get botht he OCE and signet

dire hinge
#

imho Signet very rarely is useful in practice since fights need to last quite a long time for it to build up (4min+) and it's risky to play it in keys-- akin to Anvil (which also requires a lot of combat uptime + management).

OCE is quite safe in all content though

#

Signet does pump though, just bear in mind the realistic fight length of the content you are personally participating in

hardy hare
#

sounds good, should i get just the other ring for now?

dire hinge
#

both the rings are nice yeah, one is decent damage and the other helps keeps Blue Silken Lining uptime higher

#

if you're looking for some slightly more in-depth, or at least contextual information, there's the #updates-midnight channel which Archi keeps updated regarding bullion purchase options as well

obsidian topaz
#

A bit annoying having 2 lock in rings

#

Hard to shuffle stats around

dire hinge
#

true, but with bullions almost all of our gear is deterministic, so it's not really something to worry about this season at all

#

with patience you just get BiS gear

tacit gate
#

I'm really liking this titania weakaura it's really good

misty iron
#

are we supposed to be at 3 items and 1 bullion currency this week?

dire hinge
#

that sounds right

uncut stag
misty iron
#

thanks, was just confused for a sec since there was a shitton of questions on what to buy this week 😄

turbid plinth
#

Is augury a good purchase? Pretty much playing all 3 warriors specs atm and have mythic anvil & icon atm. Switching in hero puzzlebox for anvil in m+ atm.
Also have mythic eggnog ring + mythic unstable arcane loop, so rings are good.

frigid lava
#

I'm buying a trink next week as well

#

I'm still stuck with champion trinks lol

#

How popular is icon?

manic stirrup
#

oce is played over icon

turbid plinth
#

I picked icon over oce because no one in my group plays oce. A few have icon though.

frigid lava
#

I have OCE... hoping for augury drop from the raid

#

otherwise... hmmm i dunno augury or icon with bullions

grand idol
#

I also had a subpar trinket but i went with OCE. only a couple people atm using it but more to buy it this reset I believe.

#

I dont think well have an all stats user but almost every buff is still good.

#

Some of the world trinkets on the champion track you can rng from the weekly are quite good as well.

reef glade
#

and I’m 98% sure zero tanks will want to choose icon even at full buffs over some other damage trinket

#

so u just gotta check if a healer has it and if simming an icon with dps + heal is better than whatever else you’d get with oce

frigid lava
#

ah... makes sense

wary raft
#

Healers don’t want icon afaik

reef glade
#

i mean completely depends on which healer spec and if they really want haste

#

it’s my resto Druid’s bis he says

knotty creek
#

For mythic nymue what time do we wanna attack the middle add

#

is it the 1st 2nd or 3rd

#

which alligns best for us

boreal quartz
#

well ur ideally not sending ava in intermission 1

#

and then the 3rd ava of the fight ideally is on boss in exe rather than M add and then boss is dead

#

so add 3 ig?

knotty creek
#

3rd add alright

#

thank you

boreal quartz
#

idk what criminals you need to still get 3rd

knotty creek
#

Cause im 1 of the only 5 people in my guild that does consistent damage

#

so my raid leader would want to spread the good dps out so we can kill the adds

boreal quartz
#

then fury is prolly a better bet 🤷‍♂️

#

just reck rava every set no matter when or what

knotty creek
#

I dont have gear for fury tho

boreal quartz
#

2 bsl and u have fury gear idk

#

or you just take the L and cd adds to kill boss

knotty creek
#

Yea I will just take the L tbh

#

woudlnt second add be good tho

#

cause it alligns pretty well with the cds

#

the second add comes up 3.24 or smth

#

and aavatar is 1.5

boreal quartz
#

yes but you dont want to CD it

knotty creek
#

ohhhhhh

boreal quartz
#

as you will send that ava into boss with execute and it dies

knotty creek
#

now I understand okay

#

my raiad leader or well

#

last raid leader

#

wanted us to throw all our cds into it

boreal quartz
#

which is not wrong

#

holding is going for more damage on logs rather than going for a safer kill

knotty creek
#

Makes sense

#

Thank you for the help

#

Think I'm gonna have to take the L in logs for a safe kill

#

But for future kills I'll try not to

sacred zodiac
#

not that fated logs matter lol

knotty creek
#

I mean I'm new to warrior started last season as fury and this is first season as arms

#

So it's just nice to have somewhere to check if I'm doing something right

sacred zodiac
#

@boreal quartz i just sent the cds into the add tbf

#

maybe i shouldve held actually thats technology

boreal quartz
#

spongermannen 😔

#

el no sabe

sacred zodiac
#

if the fight is long enough you lose a cd set

#

ya i got another cd set at ~10%

#

if you have humanoid dps you hold he adds if you are zdps then u just send on add

knotty creek
#

My raid group is 50/50

#

One pull they insane

#

The next is really and

#

Bad

sacred zodiac
#

i mean considering you're having to theorycraft nymue im willing to assume you're on the zdps side

#

which is fine

#

ask to be put on the 2nd add and send cds on it

#

you should get a cd set on the boss and maybe another after 3rd add

knotty creek
#

Ywa I said earlier I am 1 of our 5 good dps

#

And logs isn't everything but 80% of my group are gray or green

#

I'm usually purple or blue some fights orange

sacred zodiac
#

they should press some more buttons

knotty creek
#

I know I've complained about it since last season cause then it was real season

#

"Complained"

#

Just said people should learn their classes better

boreal quartz
#

not everyone is gods gift to gaming like @sacred zodiac

knotty creek
#

I mean my first season ever as arms

#

I got a 97 ok igira

#

Fury

#

I mean

#

And that was my first season as warrior ever

sacred zodiac
#

igira padding has less to do with you being good and more with how low spear damage is i think

knotty creek
#

I know Kek

sacred zodiac
#

not to take away your thunder, a 97 in your first season is still a great accomplishment

knotty creek
#

Got 87 on nymue tho

#

And this season listen to this it's totally insane

#

But I got

#

A 99 on assault

sacred zodiac
#

were you specced in st

knotty creek
#

Not padding at all

#

No lmao m+

#

Everyone else was st

#

Kek

sacred zodiac
#

p sure that will take away points from future applications

knotty creek
#

Did it for fun

#

And I comprted with our balance

#

Which was m+ too

#

I think

He beat me tho

This week

pugging mythic for vault is demented tho

i mean i literally pugged 7/9M this week

#

we 19 manned rashok zskarn and magmorax cuz couldnt find a replacement xd

does using using anvil pre pull in M+ work ?

boreal quartz

No

You can use it to refresh stacks but prob not worth it unless you’re at 4/5 already

#

Also, abuse critters to refresh combat

hey, can i find somewhere some good tww arms warrior builds?

boreal quartz
frigid lava
#

tww? is beta test public?

fiery otter
#

Hi is signet brand the best trinket to buy with Bullions if I'm gearing for raiding alone? Asking since it mentions Signet as a option in pins for 5 min

#

I mean as first trinket

dire hinge
#

It hits like a wet paper towel until it fully stacks

still fox
#

whats the best race for m+

fiery otter
dire hinge
#

Sure thing, bear in mind that Anvil has the same problem though 😅

fiery otter
#

Oh damn well anything would be better than my normal Branch of the Tormented ancient ig

dire hinge
#

If it’s your first trinket purchase, OCE trinket is very safe for raid, since it’s just a stat stick, but yeah just sim around and keep in mind the length of fights you’re realistically going to be participating in

stuck prairie
#

do u guys stack 2 Overpowers and 2 execute stacks before using Mortal strike in exec phase ?

fiery otter
dire hinge
#

Do hold it for two EP (execute) stacks though

stuck prairie

okok

What do I do if I have only 5 and I cant seam to get the last one on my warri alt. Bullion almost as hard to get as legendary, cursed alt

fiery otter
#

Legendary? What

dire hinge
#

Arms does love all stats, not inherently a bad option

fiery otter
#

It doesn't exist

#

Really ? damn but imagine getting it in LFR thoo ahahha

dire hinge

It’s something like a 1% chance in LFR I think, it’s incredibly low

But it does happen

lower than that

according to the numbers dont expect it to drop without doing heroic/mythic

#

My 3 trinks are WII, Storm and OCE...which is best for raiding? For m+?

fossil thistle
#

Depends on fight/encounter length
Storm boon thing is a potential suicide trinket though, so use with caution.
OCE would probably take 1 of 2 trinket slots 🤷🏻‍♂️

#

Isn’t Wii a console?

jade basalt
#

Clearly he meant World war II

WII....Whispiring Incarnate Icon...

And it isn't storm boon, it's spiteful storm.

jade basalt
#

Ah that one’s kinda weird

#

Long fight only stuff and also rng

#

Sim yoself moment but i think it depends on the buff from your teammates

#

Not a lot of tanks prefer those two so bit worse in m+ i guess

#

ms on cd

reef glade
#

yea u want to try to fit as many executes as possible b4 ms

#

whether its ms > 2 exe and 1 op > ms or 3 exe in between ms's if you have enough rage

jade basalt
#

More Arms > less Arms

somber lance
#

after how many PIs do you get invalidated?

#

more than 2?

jade basalt
#

2+ from diff players yes

boreal quartz
jade basalt
#

Keep it simple. You only get pi’d every 2min

#

Anything more than that its not ok

somber lance
#

ah so if the fight is quite long

#

can get like 3 PIs

jade basalt
#

Yes the same guy can give it multiple times

is hooves a fury only angle?

Are there any written info about soft caps for secondary stats? I.e how do i know when to go for haste instead of crit? I onyl find info about priority

dragon roar first or after avatar?

boreal quartz
#

first in st

#

after ava in aoe

jade basalt
#

Yeah doing weird stuff with numbers your own is madness

dire hinge
#

Sim uses it before in single target, to illustrate.

frigid lava
#

avatar lasts pretty long (20 sec) and sooner u use, sooner u can use next time.

#

so I usually use it at open.

Anyone playing juggernaut build in m+? I'm speccing Slam dmg atm, doesn't feel too bad. But not worth it i guess

boreal quartz

Whuh what are u even confusing there

#

both you dnt get any stacks

frigid lava
#

yea... jugg isn't that good because execute availabilty isn't that good enough to benefit. end

#

I was thinking fatality and jugg at the same time... sorry I'm just waking up lol

manic stirrup

so

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

ye, genuinely don't get why people play jugger over bladestorm(except enjoyment factor)

the builds been the same since s2

besides taking cleave now for the tier

indigo sluice
#

heya deciding whether to play fury or arms, im mainly wondering for m+ and raiding, what should factor the decision i make?

#

i think its important to note ive played fury during s2 but have never touched arms

#

should i just play each for 1 dungeon and make a decision?

#

im interested to know the differences between both aoe and st

dire hinge
#

it's free to try both out (forever), i'd suggest watching/reading some guides on both and seeing which one sounds more fun and trying that one out (for a while) first

#

it can take a bit for a new spec to click, but both Fury and Arms are relatively straight forward, with some nuance throughout to perform well

#

if you have any specific questions about arms, or need clarification on how something works we can definitely help though ❤️

indigo sluice
#

no i fully remember how fury plays, i guess im just wondering whether i stick to what i know or venture with arms, like under what conditions is arms better than fury in a dungeon and mythic setting ?

#

or are they just fairly equal?

dire hinge
#

i mean tbh right now arms destroys fury in all content for Season 4

#

fury is just easier and slightly tankier, meaning you may see it in higher keys more frequently since the limiter of those high keys is "can you live through this one-shot spell" and not necessarily the dps you do

indigo sluice
#

why though? I remember in s2 fury won over arms and i think maybe in s3 too..? I do vaguely remembers arms getting some buffs to dmg though lately

dire hinge
#

Season 4 came with some tuning to the tier sets and fury was sort of left in the dust a bit compared to arms which got tuned to perform quite high

indigo sluice
#

oh really?

dire hinge
#

yeahhh Arms pumps atm

#

by like a good 10% on paper

indigo sluice
#

that is quite the gap

#

im going to give it a try then tomorrow

#

all that is true with arms even if one doesnt have lego right?

dire hinge
#

correct yeah, the Legendary can basically be treated like an aura buff to your dps

indigo sluice
#

tyty

#

very excited to try it out tomorrow

dire hinge
#

of course! Good luck with it and holler if you run into anything that you want clarification on- the arms discord is usually very helpful for questions

indigo sluice
#

have a good night

dire hinge
#

you too!

indigo sluice
# dire hinge you too!

oh one more question, are there many variations of builds to play or do majority play just one single build, maybe switching out utility every now and then on class tree but spec tree is the same for most part?

dire hinge
#

for raid it's basically one build for the entirety of all content (minus like 1-3 bosses)

#

dungeons are honeslty the same

indigo sluice
dire hinge
#

basically yeah, and Razageth can have different builds sometimes

indigo sluice
#

diff raz builds? is that just a situation if u dont have the add damage so u lose st?

dire hinge
#

we can pick up a throw talent that does more dps to shield intermission

#

why do monks have 2 walls+karma while running like ferrari?

halcyon breach
#

Idk, doesn't sound like a problem considering what Warrior has

#

You have 2 charges and a leap, Ignore Pain if Arms, SR and Def Stance which are both extremely strong and arguably broken depending on context, and DBTS

#

Warrior does not lack for defensives and mobility

manic stirrup
#

defensive stance is an absurd thing to have

#

spell reflect at worst is a pretty solid defensive option and at best literally the hardest hitting spell in the game

It was an AA run.. so

They discuss it more there (remix in general)

fury is also just the more active channel

High apm class

#

we bound slam?

sacred zodiac
#

you can get away without pressing it

#

its technically the correct press like 2-3 times in a fight

boreal quartz

Always slam bound never slam pressed...

😔

I was surprised how good hekilli actually is for Arms, I have some bad friends and i told them to follow it and while watching him play it actually had okey suggestions, It also only mention Slam twice haha

So that would make sense

2% of my hps comes from ring thats actually pretty good right

Hmm well idk, tried it on volc 3 weeks ago since its a st boss where iz cant mess up much

#

Offered me slam like 3 times cause it op’d twice everytime

#

So ms was on cd more often- less resets

#

But maybe it changed last 0.5 sec after i alteady buffered op

#

Might try again on volc since its patchwerk fight

Tbh i feel like pressing buttons in a semi decent manner just guarantees you the parse and looking at the log review channel, a lot of people dont know the basic prio

#

The rest is about uptime which is the hardest part i feel

#

How to maximize it

teal fossil
#

I don’t

#

I’m just a simp

Pressing slam is still better than pressing nothing

hey on a st fight, is there any value in bladestorming? The hurricane talent for fury made sense as u can use abilities while ravager is active, but with arms im not so sure, u get like 1.3 seconds of +30% strength so can probably only use one ability

sacred zodiac
#

definitely worth bladestorming and its not like 1.3s

somber lance
#

Isnt it like 6s?

boreal quartz
#

6 seconds ye

how is it not 1.3s if bladestorming is 4.7

#

ill start using on st though

boreal quartz

#

it resets the duratio every stack

#

end on 6

#

with 6 secs

indigo sluice
#

ohh ok i took it as 6 seconds from pressing the ability

#

not 6 seconds after bladestorming

Sims has me at 200k but I can only pull 140 in raid?

are you fighting 5 minute fights with lust and windfury and all the other buffs, aswell as playing your rotation perfectly?

#

anyone playing Arms in remix or is fury the way to go?

dire hinge
#

it's remix, you can do whatever you want

#

i saw a frogger arms warrior pressing only Slam and doing 2M dps

#

just have fun ❤️

zenith warren
#

ngl mythic sark slaps af

#

i feel like on prog s2

#

p1

dire hinge
#

it's a fun dance, i really enjoyed it

zenith warren
#

raid dmg wise I mean

dire hinge
#

ah, p1 inbound damage to the team?

#

the only thing that I remember was being able to reflect one of the dot ticks from the pulses, and it cuts a large bit of your DTPS down

zenith warren
#

I rotate defensives and at times im like 30%, maybe healers issue xd

lapis totem
#

bros i got low haste, am i idiot for running in for the kill over test of might in m+?

#

34% haste unbuffed

dire hinge
#

In For the Kill is the preferred node for M+ so that's perfectly fine

lapis totem
#

ok cool

zenith warren
#

sometimes I charge to a boss and my leggo active just does nothing, happens to anyone else?

inner wasp
#

does it go on cd?

#

or just do nothing

zenith warren
#

goes on cd

#

but no cast and I beleive no dmg

inner wasp
#

yea idk then

dire hinge
#

if you press lego mid-charge you eat your cast entirely

#

really be sure you reach your target before you press it, it's a major loss and sucks when it happens

inner wasp
#

do you have to kill every raid boss in remix to get the achieve or just the last boss

#

for the neck

dire hinge
#

for the neck?

#

every boss unfortunately

inner wasp
#

damn i have to ACTUALLY run siege of orgrimmar

dire hinge
#

and raids are lockedout daily even on normal, so i'd suggest trying to find a fresh one

inner wasp
#

im conflicted

dire hinge
#

you could split it across multiple difficulties, but figured i'd mention it

inner wasp
#

i want a monk leveled for next expansion,but i have a monk already at lvl 60

#

but i dont wanna level outside of mop remix

#

but i dont wanna get rid of my current monk cuz funny name

#

cant rly get away with remaking it either cuz it has a bunch of reps on it

dire hinge
#

if you level a second character in mop subsequent alts do get 100% xp bonus out of the gate on their capes, if you wanted to just "level" the monk towards the end of the event in preparation

#

ah i see what you mean yeah

#

I have a DK with a bunch of achievements from Legion, but I spun up a DK on MoP.
I'm just using it as a way to kind of relearn how to play it, then i'll actually level my real DK later

#

bear in mind: once MoP ends we'll probably get the Winds of Wisdom event on retail going into the next expansion which would help a lot too

inner wasp
#

forgot abt winds of wisdom

#

i need a troll for the heritage armor quest

#

maybe ill level a troll monk just for fun and the 40k bronze

#

then id have a tank to easily do dailies with

dire hinge
#

heck yeah

inner wasp
#

queueing for random heroic, getting in after 5-10 minutes, then my hunter pet instantly dying to floor aoe

#

not the play

dire hinge
#

haha, yeah heroic scenarios have felt that way with pugs dracthyr_sweat

#

watching somebody just sprint into a pack as if it's a dungeon and immediately dying

inner wasp
#

what else are u supposed to do if no tank 😔

#

honestly brofam im finna just not worry about all the account wide unlocks and make the monk now

#

and do the rest of the unlocking on it

#

tho maybe i should get the neck out of the way at least since i only have tot and soo to do

dire hinge
#

yeah, getting neck/rings/trinkets also boosts your ilvl and stats significantly, easily the biggest power gains

gray steeple
#

or just level as many toons to 70, get the bronze bonus, buy what you want and move on

dire hinge
#

do the hyper degen route of making a second, trial account (which are level capped to 20) and set your actual account on follow then tank your way through as you one shot everything on the overscaled scaled tank dps

#

saw someone doing it with a holy priest and it was doing insane dps'

#

priest was level 20

#

tank was afk just following the healer lol

i was lv70

at lv10 :)

#

but yeah its for sure more work getting a 500+ ilvl in all slots char

#

than a cracked lv20

half spoke
#

Them being broken as shit with high thread count is a side benefit

dire hinge
#

that, but also you never out-level the scaling (trial accounts are locked to level 20 indefinitely)

#

can run as many dungeons as you want but you'll always be in that sweet spot

quasi torrent
#

yes we have one person on a 2nd acc (trial) just afk

correct

when do you bladestorm in st on m+ when you're running iftk?

#

"you dont" is acceptable :p

timber lynx

before warbreaker

while wb is up you bs first for the buff?

timber lynx

you bs and then warbreaker

#

for hurricane buff at the start of wb

pastel moss

ye thats what i meant

timber lynx
#

ye

pastel moss
#

do you ava before bs or after?

timber lynx
#

probably after im not sure on that one

#

Id just pop it with wb

#

but im not sure if thats the most optimal

pastel moss
#

yeah i have ava macro'd with wb

dire hinge
#

In single target you Avatar->WB after Bladestorm, yeah

dire hinge
#

works in raid single target too then

#

i keep trying to click my Bullion on retail to give me bronze Sadge

pastel moss
rose matrix
#

Is there a reason to go above 100% crit in remix

dire hinge
#

as far as "when" to use the cooldowns, use them if the pack will live through their duration basically (Avatar is 20 seconds, Roar is 16 seconds). Best to save for a fresh pack, or honestly "whenever" during a boss

grand idol
#

Sarcasm, if that isnt clear.

#

hehe

dire hinge
#

nah no point to going over 100%, you can reallocate a crit gem to another stat or just start stacking speed/armor

I think I can reach 3k io this season.

fluid crystal
#

What is craft priority with sparks??

halcyon breach
#

2x BSL or 1x BSL + Vers wrists

#

Although even with low uptime of BSL, 2x will typically be better than Vers wrists

fluid crystal

ty

frigid lava
#

thinking of switching to BSL from lariat

fathom shoal
#

❤️ bsl

bleak jasper
#

i regret not crafting it

#

i made lariat instead

frigid lava
#

lariat's uptime is about 20%

#

I think BSL should be higher

#

so.. yea

whole condor
#

BSL?

bleak jasper
#

blue silk lining

#

yeah lariat's uptime is pretty rough

#

i was just worried about my health in keys tbh

fathom shoal
#

im usually around 70-80% uptime with it, only run 8-10s tho

brittle pelican
#

lariat is bait since nerfs in season 1

rare kite
dire hinge
#

not bait persay, it's decently close to a second BSL and your health doesn't affect its uptime

brittle pelican
#

Im an m+ pleb, can't afford gazzilion sockets until end of season

rare kite
#

right, so your statement is "lariat is bait early"

brittle pelican
#

lariat is bait for casual gamers which is like 99.8%

halcyon breach
#

Just because you raid mythic doesn't mean you'll get Sockets a lot quicker

#

My hunter, who I've only done keys on, picked sockets after 2 vaults

rare kite
#

and this season you get 2 sockets instead of 1. pretty good value

dire hinge
#

i've taken two sets of socket already on the warrior dracthyr_sweat

#

vault can be bad no matter what content you do

sage kindle
#

Morning guys. Reactivated my Warri from s2, so I don’t have the legendary. Do I try to farm it weekly and craft a weapon first or would u rather buy Ashkandur and forget about the axe ?

frigid lava
#

buy the weapon

#

it takes like... 10+ heroic kills to get the legendary

sage kindle
#

Holy… okay that’s a lot…

#

I guess Ashkandur is the way then

frigid lava
#

Yea... the weapon is the biggest dps increase and ashkandur is the best

#

leggo... might not come to u until the last week of the DF

sage kindle
#

But just for me. Is the axe that much more of a dps increase compared to ash or is it more like moderate ?

#

Just to know how much worth I am to a legendary player

sage kindle
#

Ouch that hurts

frigid lava
#

U can expect 10+% dps increase

2 sockets per week?

In exchange for the great vault reward

eternal vortex

Since u get 6tokens if u did ur hw

jade basalt

In s4 the socketing item costs 3 token thats why

eternal vortex

And each socket costs 3 tokens

frigid lava

Cool... if I don't get a good loot... then socket it is.

Double sockets arent bad

For crit it's easy

No I've always just been confused about stats, for example on your character panel it says 50% Mastery, then you mouse over and it says Mastery, 7012 [+38.06%] and I don't understand that

hallow turtle
#

On the character sheet

tacit gate
#

I asked chatgpt and it says that the 50% represetns the percentage of your mastery's effectiveness relative to its maximum potential,

shadow ibex

chatgpt goated

latent moss

X rating = Y%

#

Rating gets DRs

#

lust pi iftk etc don't give rating

they give % so they don't dr

when u hover over ur stat it shows rating and % from that rating

#

then u add talents etc on top of that

and you get ur actual stats

I see more healers with OCE for sure

then you do you boo. That was a general recommendation

I have a heroic icon wondering if I should just buy OCE, not feeling the ring / cloak purchase too

Going to be between ashkunder and OCE I think

depends on what you want, do you wanna be yoked and carry mfers through raids? or do you just want all the cosmetics

you can do both lol

just really depends on how much time you want to invest

I don't think it's that bad

it's just bad when you consider how much bronze it takes to get 1 char to 476 while also trying to purchase every single cosmetic from the event

but you really don't even need to be 476 ilvl to clear mythic SoO and it'll only become easier with time

why give a shit if someone wants to be over with the event in 1 week

if you want to spend 90 days doing dailies then go for it

There’s no reason to give a shit I agree, but thinking it’s normal to be done in 2-3 days is unreasonable imo.
