The nice thing about early access is it spreads out the mass flow of people trying to play at the same time in the same area
Maybe this will smooth out the launch experience, who knows
Heroics and M0s have always been available before the season started
Looking at all the stuffs come with epic edition, I don't see it worth $40
Im buying basic I guess
I guess it’s just no LFG tool for heroics
I would not get the Epic edition either, unless you're swimming in money/gold
you didn’t buy 3 epic editions like my dumb ass
You can level 400 chars
I always play only one, warrior
Yea
What If your first 4 warriors get crappy vaults?
That 5th one has a weapon in it for sure for sure
400 
only vault weapon is for warriors with leggo already, rest get rings or boots
More
Like a lot more
Go to Echos guild page and check roster for warriors
too many
not enough
yes that, you can walk to the dungeon and do it on any difficulty
hc dungeons are daily though i think so you cant turbo spam lfg
Does Revvez even play outside of Raids ?
been outta the loop smashing remix for a few weks, is this decent for AA with aug or am i falling way beehind?
Hey guys. I am currently using 528 oce and 522 puzzle box. 522 augury is simming higher and not sure whether to listen to it
Other than no mainstat, augury is solid and sims well at a high ilvl. Just be aware if no str on it
Yeah im just aware sometimes sims arent always fully correct. i see most warriors using puzzle box so thought id ask
pb will be effectively higher on shorter fights or fights that see 2 uses - it also suffers from DR if you have mastery on gear - augury loves crit
eg with mastery at 47% - pb gives less than if i run 37% by a few % - not huge but sims account for that
I am talking for m+ btw i should have specified
M+ for gear innit
I probs use brand+oce in raid
mastery is huge in M+, if you can handle the cast time use it
Signet only for fights 4 or 5+ minutes long
with aug it looks pretty low but i dont know what key level it is and pull size changes it massively
sometimes in pugs you just get gimped with route
yeah and id use augury on other fights
an 8 AA, decent size pulls - we all around 519 ilvl
ah shit is probably dying super fast then, i think you're doing okay
done like 3 keeys in 3 weeks but i might push alittle harder in retail nowe remix rewards no longer need the daily grind
what changed about remix rewards? i have been neglecting that 
i capped gear and bones needed lol, just need about 600k bronze for the rewards and im done
A guildie of mine pointed out that I should stop using berserker rage and I thought that was a good suggestion considering I never used it, but then switching to thunder clap felt like walking through sand to adjust to the new Weakaura setup xD
oh yeah right that'll do it
50k a day is easy so no longer requires anything more than daily quests and heroic tot every day
ive just been using it to level and spending the 70k~ per character on a couple of mounts
i dont think there's anything i really want
yeeah same a few mounts and a few toys maybe some tmog
just started mythic+ last night and I'm already blue for warrior on raider io for my realm, we're gonna make it to the big leagues boys
i just broke 2500 tonight, i feel way way behind where im usually at tho
@proud plover honestly 😂 I haven’t played in like 3 weeks probably and I’ve been sitting around 26xx
that's a pretty sicknasty number gratz
^^ see im way behind
some of my guildies are pushing 3k, but they've been on the expansion for a while.
Mythic+ is hella fun
raiding hella fun
3k is pretty normal for a semi-hardcore player
what kind of keys are you looking at when it's 3k?
Mostly 13s
Which isnt too difficult
i still have a 4 fort rlp lol that should give me a chunk neext week
👍
i just do four weekly 10s and im 2800 
i got baited in to an av 12, thinking it was a 10 so that bumped me up a bit
but i think all 10s is like 2800~
how do you best handle the poison frogs in halls of torment
Use SR
infusion i mean not torment idk why i said that
and pray that healer dispels u
Piercing howl, dbts are a couple options
bring a herb? to gain the buff that dispells you
Or just have a frost mage in group 😛
He should yes
okay
woooah I really love dbm now, it doesn't have that stupid annoying airhorn I hated
Bigwigs is a better option honestly
No? The timer is super tight and if people don’t press defensives on the trash before final boss, it’s a wipe
It’s quite unforgiving
Bigwigs will count the abilities used. Like aoe 1, aoe 2 et
Sadge.
Overall it’s felt like an okay key, many pugs still struggle with puddle placement (even if we share the wind direction aura), ping ahead of time, or drop markers
On bolstering i’ve had keys bricked because people dont focus the right ads
The blaze fella absolutely trucks your group if you just go ham on aoe
guys im new to arms and i have some questions that i didnt find on any guide
- Cleave on how many targets over MS?
- Some guides say that you should cleave with 2 stacks of OP on 4+ targets with sweeping strikes, whats the deal of SS and Cleave here? will change anything?
- Sudden deaths procs = ignored on 4+ mobs?
- Can i spam cleave and OP or i legit need to wait till cheave have 2 charges
guess thats it D:, thx in advance
1: If I remember right. It should be cleave 4+ unless you have SS then it’s MS on 4 and under.
3: sudden doom is last prio in aoe.
4: this will depend on if you need to focus a target down or not. 2x OP > cleave will be slightly more ST while cleave with 1 stack will be slightly more aoe
amazing, thx for it ❤️
to give some context to #2, the Sweeping Strikes buff is focused on your Overpower ability, specificaly the passive "Dreadnaught". Sweeping Strikes makes 2 dreadnaught lines shoot out of you, each can hit targets independently. Saving Cleave for 2x stacks means you're getting more Overpowers cast (this is technically your #1 damaging ability in most dungeons), while also buffing Cleave for its next cast significantly.
your tier set makes Cleave crits amplify your damage for the next few seconds, and casting other abilities beween Cleave (namely at least 2 Overpowers) is just more damage overall
so casting cleave with only 2 stacks its more dmg overall on big packs
yup! It's mostly because we want to prioritize Overpower casts while still maintaining our 4p tier (through casting Cleave in AoE)
perfect, ty!
we dont need to track the 4p tier bonus, because the chance of proccing it is extremely high in AoE, but casting it at 2x Overpower buffs helps make sure we have it active
of course! happy to help
Do we need to track rend debuffs on AOE or it is a dmg loss to cast TC early to apply rend on new targets? I start every pull with TC, but it only applies rend to 5 targets and I don’t know if I should just follow the rotation normally or if I should prioritize TC to apply rend on all mobs(10+ targets)
it'll passively apply more rends as Tclap comes up i your rotation, but dont overprioritize Tclap just to get more rends out
Nice, ty!
Tclap to reset overpower 😎
i see many arms running box, am i missing something?
and for m+? ominous and box?
yeah
signet is not good in m+ as you will msot likely drop stacks
box is super nice
interesting
Hey guys, quick question on a topic I couldn't find any information about on the internet, regarding Theralion and Valiona in BOT 25 HC.
Someone in my raid claims it's possible or even desirable , that I should solo as a warrior the portal phase to do the adds with Victory Rush.
I can't imagine that this will work out, have you ever heard anything about this or do you even practice it?
Need a quick confirmation for my raid that this is not possible so that the discussion is over 😄
Im not familair with BoT25HC, is that a Classic thing?
Oh sorry, I am in the wrong thread then? yea cataclysm
If so, you'll want to check out the classic discord instead https://www.wowhead.com/discord-servers
okay I will thanks
sure thing!
Most mobs die around the same pace so for me I’ll only switch to a more ST orientated rotation for priority targets 🧐
I've done it! I beat my raidbots dps.
my rotation has changed, now it's just 2 buttons
Beat the raidbots dps? Grats on the improvement 🙂
Is it common that warrior dps don't take much healing?
I’m usually one of the lowest in both raid and keys yeah. Unsure how common it is for others though
Especially between ignore pain and victory rush I feel like I top myself off frequently and my hp doesn’t dip as far as others though
same
Broodkeeper ring + IV inzane
defensive stance, die by the sword, spell reflect

100% BSL uptime
I've been playing -+10 M+s this week. BSL usually 70~80% both dps/tank
is signet fine on m sarkareth?
not sure how it works exactly and the fight has some downtime
You are in combat so the stacks don’t drop
If your fight time is over 5m, it’s likely signet is your best trinket
Should we take the sark cloak this week for bullions?
answer depends on what you already have
@warped plume @fresh spire
sark infested?
We are but sharks 🦈
ill stay away from it the 4k stam loss is rough imho in raid and higher keys. imma stick to something else
🦈
you fw unhinged?
has to be better than hurricane for sure
I’m taking anvil today unless it’s in my vault
Even if its turd
I'm rocking it

Might play it in farm tomorrow for memes
Sks that is
i mean SKS being 1 talent point
would prob be worth it now
having sks instead of either 1 bloodborne // ms thingy
if it was 1 point not 2
I have both rings, Lego, myth track oce, signet and box. Only things left really are cloak or asskandi for fury
I'll have the chicken please

LLLLLL
that's not the vault trink i was looking for
Buy a fyrakk 1h
hmmm with bullion?
Ye it's best dps option for prot
I probably should.... I'm taking the pants to trade for tier
Tier legs stink even for prot, no?
I need help making a choice here from the great vault, I have the choice of getting 512 shoulders that are part of the set for warriors which is a big ilvl upgrade for me, but the problem is I'm 1/5 in with another shoulder that's part of the set, or do I get 499 legs which are also part of the set and also a big upgrade, and I will be 2/5?
I think I'll just go with the legs for the %15 boost to to MS
Not me
Is OCE actually better than Icon in M+ if noone else is using it?
I havent bought one yet since I have hero Whispering incarnate
Group may have oce also
it's likely that other people are using it for high keys since folks coordinate more, but Icon is "safest" for pugging
and this weeks bullion can either go dreadplates for prot spec (so I can get into keys) or OCE I guess
Generally healers dont run OCE and neither to tanks
do I have to rely on DPS I guess?
can always inspect the data behind the keys that populate whatever tool you posted and look for yourself
I mean the first one is all logged keys +10 and higher from archon
avoidance gloves 
the second is the top 50 arms warriors so really the title pushers
I guess im just asking what most of you run in keys / raid
is anvil not great anymore? Dont see it used much
hell augury is used more than icon in logged keys whats that about
anvil is difficult to upkeep in keys and very punishing if you ever let it fall off
I meant raid sorry
This is +10 to +22 last week 1520 logged runs of M+
Anvil/Signet both take 4+min to build up their power and then benefit from the fight lasting even longer than that, and the current raid tiers fall over much faster than that timeframe (minus the final few bosses)
alright so I'll take anvil off my wishlist for trinkets then lol
and I had like 12 renascent tokens to transform
they're both contextual, you could be a pumper in a bad group and the fight will last longer too, just play to whatever group you're in
dreadplates, OCE or Icon upgrade
we'lll have enough bullions to buy pretty much anything we want, so there's no wrong answer really
i dont really care about raid trinkets because i just do heroic clear
maybe one or two myth bosses thats it
yeahhh heroic especially will not last long enough
ok so OCE stronger in raid for sure, and a bit weaker in keys unless others are using too
icon good for pugging keys where people arent using OCE.
I mean is augury worth running in keys? I have one that I got for fury before giving up on that
you can use it, it's just more prone to higher highs and lower lows since it's somewhat rng
vs PuzzleBox where you have very direct control over when it happens and it always lines up with your avatars
haha, that one i do not have the answer to, but i like where your head is at
I mean i got it out of my vault
Lmao
Will say it's funny as fuck in sales
What is the heroic leap icon supposed to be?
How "baity" is Hoofs?
just being nosy what yall getting for yalls 5th bullion item?
Cloak
135 gold
learning mechanics to boss fights always puts me to sleepy mode
do you have the thank you whisper wa
Hey Guys.. is there an situation where i sim 5 targets 5 min? or shoud i sim everytime 1 target 5 min? For M+
I went shield ring
What kind of bait are we talking about
Doesn’t sim good for me
It’s more of a fury trinket?
not that shits whack and toxic
people who actually use that weakaura are cringe
Should i get ashkandur with bullion if i dont have lego or just follow the priority list?
How is everyones vault?
Yeah i get mad when someone whispers me from grief
Jokes on them, now their key is bricked
realistically speaking: is there any chance i will meet any tank/healer in a key with Icon/OCE? Havent seen one and im running around 30ish keys in a week. Thinking about buying pips tomorrow..
healer maybe, i havent heard any tanks wanting one though
Branch of the tormented ancients doesnt seem to get much love, but oddly enough it sims well for both single and multitarget for me
droptimizer tells me it should be my next bullion purchase
think you meant to reply to something else :p

I run OCE, but i havent come across anyone else running either. That's why when i sim, i sim those trinkets with no additional buffs
Droptimizer even tells me that augury is better for arms than oce/Icon without party buffs
Icon seems to sim better than OCE, but you can at least choose what stats OCE gives you
every week, these trinket evaluations make my head explode
Yeah i simmed droptimizer without party buffs for oce/Icon and almost every other available trinket sims better
my 528 augury doesnt even register on my sims, yet when i did heroic Fryakk, it was #2 on my damage
535 augury beats a 522 Signet at 4 and 5 minutes. Even without main stat.
Since i also don't really know what to chose. is the Voice of the Silent stat cloak a good option? i only do mythics 13+
the only fights that last > 4 minutes seem to be the last two bosses of each raid
If you don’t need the stamina and are ok stealing stats.
I found its not great for pushing keys. I was a lot squishier with that cloak on
the other thing about that cloak...if everyone has it and everyone is constantly stealing eachother's stats, it fucks with the group
there have been times where i thought one of the afflicted ghosts did their thing, but it was really a couple of other party members stealing my haste stat at the same time
k, so it's good if you mostly play premade and no one else has it
ive made it work in my keys, but i havent done a 13 and i have to be really cognizant about using Ignore pain
ow ok, not the best option. i already got the 2 rings, Oce trinket. But i don't really like a 'use' trinket. so dno what i will buy tomorrow
youre not alone. every week, the discussion is what trinket to buy next
if you dont want to bother or stress, maybe just pick up two passive trinkets and call it a day
augury + OCE
Whispering Icon sims better than OCE, but you can at least choose your favorite stat with OCE
yeah was thinking about augury or icon
the thing that's really messing with my mind this week is that my sims overwhelmingly point me to the Branch of the tormented ancients
says its a +7k dps add over augury, which im not sure i believe
for what its worth @stable osprey , my 528 augury is good for 5-9% of my damage, consistently
Branch is dogshit to use
k thx. also really hard to get in groups without a team. might be my last time as a warrior after 16 years
@somber lance the cooldown makes it not line up with our abilities, but i just macro it into war breaker so at least im using it whenever that's up
Augury doesn’t have main stat and you are reliant on RNG with it but I’ve also found it does 5-9% of my damage. And that’s without stacking crit.
Any recommendations on trinkets for shorter mythic fights
m+ fights?
Most of our stuff is under 4m now and I find anvil/brand don’t do well there, been using puzzle box/call to chaos since no one in my group has oce but I also have spiteful storm
that trinket is very decent
how do you use spiteful storm without dying to a mechanic?
You’re thinking of the dathea trinket
spiteful storm is the one where youre stationary for 10 seconds, isnt it?
No that’s storm eaters boon
ahh
I simmed and the sim says use anvil but in practice it seems sub par
Puzzle and ruby sim best for me for pure MT sims. For dungeon slice, it follows raid sims and recommends augury and puzzle box.
For m+ I run call to chaos and dreadplate
Anvil no good for us last I heard/checked.
fights too short prob
Yeah most fights are 4 and under
Even longer fights anvil still seems to underperform even though it sims well
@urban iron from Archimitiros in the updates-dragonflight: Best trinket is very flexible depending on whether your group is capable of maximizing OCE/Icon, you're building for 3m fights (emphasizes Embersoul, Branch, Augury), or longer 5m fights (Brand, Anvil, Augury). If you want something middle ground or for flexing between Arms and Fury, Augury might be the best choice.
anvil over a key with 93% 5 stack uptime even felt lackluster - its amazing for prot tho
I main prot and my uptime is 95+ most keys for it and it absolutely slaps
remember anvil procs off ms so other abilities in m+ for aoe damage make it do less damage
Yeah that’s why I don’t use it
529 has been reached boys now i can finally play the game
M+ trinks I have no issues with, dreadplate and call feels like a good blend
nice! i just broke 527 and thought i had a big !@#@!#
Just mythic raids feel like you lose a lot with the compressed execute phase that some of the trinks are simbait
you know what else slaps hard for prot? Hooves trinket
I use anvil/dreadplate
Zero prot dps issues, both of them wreck
so many choices, its paralyzing
prot lfr for bullion but legit it fuckign slaps - its decent for arms also
yoyo guys :) im new arms warrior in remix, what do you go for with stats and gems?
Check out the guide https://discord.com/channels/148872210742771712/268491842637660160
Oh I can’t read. You said remix my bad.
you'll want this one instead:
https://www.wowhead.com/guide/classes/warrior/arms/remix/overview
the left-hand navigation has quick links to gems/stats etc
oh i see thank you ill try that one :)
Don't use dungeon slice, or sims generally as a rule of thumb, to determine what trinkets to use for M+
If you want a good setup, use Puzzle + any stat stick like OCE, Icon or Pips. Alternatively class trinket also good although not recommended for high/push keys
Deswind mentioned Ashes also being a good option, but have not tested it out myself, and it's either something you gotta loot from raid or Bullion if you don't have it
I don't have a puzzle box that can go above 415, so I was hunting for another option wth my 2x bullions.
I can get an ashes but also have no idea if anyone has proved it's any good.
I generally trust Deswind when it comes to M+ related questions
If you do end up buying it and using it, you'd use it every 3 minutes like you would with Puzzle (assuming you use Ava on CD)
At the end of the day though, whichever one you pick you'll have a great on-use regardless
Alright. good advice. thank you.
Did the raidbots arms APL get changed recently?
No
Reason I'm asking is because I'm simming like 3k lower with the same setup from last week
Deswind did 99% of AOE Apl anyway
Be sure to check if there are sim settings you might've changed, because 1 week multiple small things could've happened you might've forgotten about
Alternatively, send the two sims
Last week's: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/nqdHk1Y5mgCT74WmYU7w3J
This week's (includes previous gear setup in there as well as newest top gear because I purchased Sark cloak): https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/fm65vX1NUK1BjaYD74Wmry
what am I missing?
One is a 3 min sim the other is a 5 min sim
The old also uses EB, the new one uses BB too
for those running EB, during execute, are you still prioritizing EB procs or doing the normal execute rotation?
how would EB affect your execute priority
all it does is reset the cd no? and you only wanna ms with 2x ep stacks
All EB does for you in Execute, is make you go
Exe - Exe - MS
Instead of a 3rd global before MS
got it, so always prioritizing execute > MS, thx

did you kill him 15 times in one week
or once every week for 15 weeks
every week for 15 weeks
you have not seen some of the guys boosting
racking up 1k last boss kills
link your character logs i guess
arent ingame stats
deceiving
as they dont tell u if you killed it twice in 1 week
so
which is kind of the point
well u can check if it at least says 15
idk if they r going off memory so they could be at like 13 or 14
but ya armory is the best
check wa top left
check hc kills
is that one of the cases where its 100% after the 15th kill
or is it guaranteeed at 15
Based off this guys experience I’d guess that it didn’t carry over
Should be 100% on the 15th heroic kill
So odd question but did you actually use the greater embers or is one in your bags?
@halcyon breach vc right MEOW
Better to bladestorm
During war breaker or after to fit bladestorm in test of might during aoe?
What weakaura is that? Last I checked-- which, to be fair, was months ago-- there was no real way to track greater embers with a macro or weakaura
Running both bladestorm and tom together kinda sussy
Unless there is new tech I missed
You can track lesser embers, but not greater ones
Just to entertain that particular (hypothetical?) scenario, you wouldn’t cast it inside warbreaker since you want to be spending rage during that time
Some people a few weeks ago had 16 and 17 kills. Someone in yellow said it’s likely at 15 but not guaranteed until the 18th HC kill iirc
That wa is guessing. They have no concrete info.
According to datamined values, it should be 100% at 15 heroic kills.
The problem is that people aren't good at keeping track of how many heroic kills they have, and might have killed it multiple times in one week
had my 21st heroic kill today without it dropping
I have killed him 15 times every week in heroic
the TLDR is that while there was datamined stuff it was never confirmed, but we do see people semi-occasionally say they; haven't gotten it after 15, but then get it within a few weeks after (usually before 18), so i'd just keep killing it until it drops if you want it
every week is closer to that sweet sweet upgrade
ayo does the dungeon slice sim work for arms?
fine enough yeah
cool thanks
wtb higher ilvl, but at least my stats look good. 432.5k sim
15 times a week for like 15 weeks? That’s 225 HC kills without it dropping. Open a ticket dude
not 443k why 
unless not padding bsl
only simming at 40% uptime
hello friends i have a quick question what should i buy first the diurnas ring or the second two handed weapon to swith to fury anytime???
ring probably assuming u have leggo or if not at least like helm enchant/some other fire dmg trinket
o diurna like shield ring right
wich item will go best first
not the dam ring
i mean if u play fury alot and youd be buying an ashkandur with your leggo that's probably fine
im pushing as arms right now
yea i mean ring probably gets u more mileage, and also it is aberrus this week so can get lucky from raid maybe, heroic ashk basically same as mythic if u can get your hands on it
but like another free bullion item next week from quest
so chillin either way
pewrfect bro
while doing st on m+, i should roar or bs first? roar snapshot hurricane?
The 40/40/40/20 split is nice
Only druids have snapshotting iirc. You can roar during hurricane or ToM
Bladestorm first in ST then use your other CDs afterwards
but if i roar while CS is up the dmg wont be bigger?
gg
Spend more rage during CS for larger ToM for a larger roar. Gf
most of the damage comes from the DoT ticks in Roar, not the upfront scream itself, and there's no snapshotting. It basically becomes a wash on whether you want to roar before or after bladestorm in AoE
back in the day was snapshotting or im tripping cuz im used to rogue?
nah snapshotting has been dead for a long time
things dynamically increase their damage done if modifiers get involved
It’s been like 8 + years since snapshotting has been dead
roar dots will do the same dmg regardless?
last time i played was on legion, makes sense
DoTs will update their damage done if modifiers appear on the target or yourself as they're applied
Legion didn’t have snapshotting either iirc
Pretty sure wod was the last iteration of it
Druids can snapshot with tigers fury i think, that’s the only one
i played like 2 weeks of legion so idk
So who wants to bet they reverse the cleave change and make slam and MS do AoE so you have 4 new aoe buttons to manage
I need to play more of it on beta, but in theory it sounds fine so far. Different, but not the worst
Having both MS and Cleave as DW applicators, Fatal Mark stackers, and consume OP stacks always feels like it would make the most sense to consolidate them, but Cleave is a pretty iconic ability for better or worse
Arms AoE felt terrible having to manage cleave WW and OP, this change should help a lot with it. Especially with the 3 second CD made it feel like fury levels of spamminess
i mean arms and fury have very similar APMs, arms has been a busy busy spec this expansion
it's definitely more bloated though for sure
Themetically it always felt nicer for arms to be the more tactical less APM spec but where youd think a bit more about what to use next. Fury is just brbrbrbrbbrbrbr
i havent tried beta but arms should be slower
was a little surprised we didn't see Arms getting a charged ability of some kind tbh.
Not saying it's a good idea, or that I want to see it, but given the theme i was expecting to see a hold-to-cast ability that got stronger and rewarded you planning ahead on when to charge it
That could work well with shockwave, the longer you hold it the more damage it does but youre rooted while doing it
But you can still just push it quick if you want the stun
#1230008337517514772 to keep convos straight
valid, thank you
At least on a reset day. 😄
i forgto neck piece setting is 2>2>3?
Yeah
in raid if we only have crit and mastery, am i better off swapping to haste?
haste and crit sim very similar forme
Is it ever better to run 2x bloodborne or 1x bb 1x eb over fatal mark in shorter fights?
I see that sometimes on a fast kill there are arms wars that dont run fatal
I just run black. Once you go black, there’s no turning back…
is there a good way to sim it?
does the statistics page in achievements show fyrakk kills for just last season?
When in a ST boss fight do we use BS with no buff from WB or avatar?
This is with the Mythic + build
in m+ you BS before cds on ST
Quick question. Got legendary on ret in s3 pretty early but have been trying to get it on my warrior with about 14 kills.
I can go kill Mythic fyrakk ( non fated ) right now with no other kills in the raid for the Lesser BLP tokens.
Would I be better off killing JUST Fyrakk on Mythic or full clearing Heroic and killing it
Nvm I should get it this week guaranteed in heroic
does the statistics page in achievements show fyrakk kills for just last season?
should sim that
fatality should be the same % of damage regardless of length
you can sim all variations you want in advanced sim

just pick the auras available in your raid/group
Can someone remind me how to use PBox correctly? and the trick to use it during Bladestorm or Lego? 🙂
With Avatar
precast it, it lasts 30 seconds (your burst window is 20)
but yeah it'll be up for every other avatar
Is there a way to figure out how much BSL uptime you have from a WoWlog? Or is it all just guesswork?
Buffs
But its including downtime
If youre referring to m+
Details provide in combat uptime
you filter it to show your character, then look at your buffs page for the blue silken lining named buff, "Zone of Focus"
Ahh gotcha
&type=auras&ability=387336 on the end of a URL will bring it up
For doing training dummy tests on Single target build is removing Fatality enough to prevent the results from getting screwed up when the dummy goes into execute range? Or are there other talents that interact with low health in a meaningful way? (Since you can't get the dummy to stay full health throughout the whole test)
well all your execute talents
you can find some dummies that are practically invincible
Where would those be?
I've been just avoiding using non SD proc Executes whenever I mess around on dummies for non execute tests
arent the valdrakken ones enough
also you dont have to hit it for too long
if you are 3-4 minutes in and its below 50 or so you can just let it reset
Valdrakken ones fall down below 35% pretty fast in my experience
1:30 is usually enough to drain it to 35%
2 socketed rings lol
gg
bro... i didnt even notice but i got 2 pi's on r1 kazzara... only had the second pi for like 5 seconds
but the second priest who was hitting me on amirdrassil skip swapped back to the other person that came late, but then apparently cat jumped on her computer and shut it down
and it reset the macro to my name
i didnt notice until nelth...
its joever
kill me now
actually so sad
This ring has been stuck on my finger since week 2 and it refuses to leave my best gear XD
Mostly because of the socket
powerful breakdown on LFR Amalgamation chamber
(Specced from Fury to Arms as they pulled and couldn't unequip ashkandur)
hate special weapons moment
LMFAO
o what.. you just had 2 red weapons?
Probably still more DPS than some of the people that show up
why wouldnt it unequip ashk
Yoo 11K DPS
i think it bugs like that for fury if youre swapping a weapon from offhand on fury to mainhand on arms or somethin
but wack
I don't have gear sets for specs to auto swap

sounds like u now have a reason to do that...
It's just a case of unequipping Ash
That's the first time in my many years of playing this (godawful) game that it has happened
Everytime I'm forced to use slam in my rotation I think the same thing
I should've just equipped my new speed smolderon sword
Then I wouldn't have had the problem
pogga
We're at the point now where I'm just building a speed set for mog farming
this is real power
Maybe if I find the time for it next expac I'll set it up
almost all of that is just the emerald dream world pieces off the ah
sanic calm down
you kinda gotta snipe the good prices tho
sometimes people dont know what they have and where most speed items are for several thousand gold they just slam a speed item up on the AH for a few hundred
Atm almost all of them are 5 digit costs here
Downside is that I'd do negative damage to non-scaled content if I use garbonzo gear
Since it's mostly for EP which is still using non-scaled
oh yeah if its not legacy content then no recommend
I have that guy mostly for shortening invincible farm
EP soloable when 
oh shit rlly
Ya
how do u get past queens court?
They fixed Council
It's no longer 99% DR if near each other
And don't think it MCs anymore
oh thats fucking insanely dope
Even my ret rat that took over a minute to kill Council didn't get MCd
shit im gonna have to go to that later tonight or something then
Only been doing it for a few weeks now coping the shoulders will drop
I got tusks back in 22' ive been itching for another chase tmog item to completely waste my time and make me hate myself
kekw
im poor so thts too much for me to spend but
if u got it its so fun to play at 40% speed
dont forget the flasks
charged phial of alacrity
anyone have the OCE string?

Are they upgraded too for the extra 19 speed?
nah I think I got it all in s4
or super late s3
if u can even upgrade it I dunno if u can upgrade world drops
hmm
I am speed
This actually reminds me I still need to farm more azerite gear
any1 know where to find like max sim in bis gear for each class
wondering how this bm hunter simmin at like 372k unless like their class is actually just dog ass
but like i dont think that could be possible
fury was like f tier at like 390 whatever it was b4 buff
Although this isn't entirely accurate at least for Arms (depending on sim settings)
Since I personally sim like 441k
Have not checked what BSL uptime etc it runs
Pssh no rivendare sword?
buy 2 1hs for smf speed 
You say that like I didn't drop 80k on a pair already
Also rivendare was nerfed from flat speed to speed stat
it's shit eitherway after it's nerf
always runs default
and these are the 'rules' for the S4 profiles (but they're pretty much always basically this)
I see, thank you for your eternal and endless wisdom Schmidi
@halcyon breach
I think I can raid log now 
Tmykrigare needs a bit of work but mostly done 
🐀
My warrior is in a similar state
All it needs is Augury ig if I want to pad bag ilvl
Idek I had a good pull fyrakk with 67% uptime so I swapped to 65%
Human adds a tiny bit more
instead of 60%
42% on my rank 20 xd
By comparison I somehow had 56% uptime on Smolderon
Altho I don't soak rings which helps
If I play more like a human on my next Fyrakk kill I can prob get a lot higher uptime
Man this calls for the pasta
do you guys actually sim your character with 65% uptime, even though you don't get that most fights? who are you trying to impress, simulationcraft.org owner or what
i do not have puzzle box but i want to have a trinket for shorter fights. essence + X. icon, torch or anvil?
if u want the alternative trinket for shorter fights, I would get Iridius Fragment
Torch is good if the raid is dying
for a 3 minute fight droptimizer suggest branch. i really dont wanna farm trinkets in m+ this season.
I SIM 69% UPTIME
lmao
43 crit and 43haste should i switch my chromie to haste instead of krit
i guess so or not ?
@halcyon breach waffen krieger
@quasi torrent kriger
I think i do 60bsl 85rage
It's what I've had it on for a while now
but feel like most fights it's even higher
Corrupting consistently stays at 80-85%
BSL idk, I'm lazy sometimes so my uptime gets kinda gutted on some fights
our enhance quit 

hopefully we get new one before tww
(im NOT happy with this)
oh yeah we also 2 healed some fight
we 2 healed all up to diurna last raid
dont remember which but my bsl was omega shit then
Then 3 healed rasz and diurna
bro finally realized his mistakes
i was using IV and IP a lot
(playing sham)
fbv king
IP nice buffer to protect bsl
Ye
Fbv does a lot too
I'm just too lazy to swap
Keeps u high on rot
I hope my shield procs at right moments and otherwise pop SR
DBTS on really big hits
gets u up faster with low healing
yeee it does but i also have 12 leech now
I have 0 terts on warr
helps a bunch
my monk that i havent filled vault on has 15 avoid 7 leech
man leech is so sick in aoe in m+, i can survive pretty much anything when aoeing unless it's 1shot
Thats why in lower keys i always just take fbv
reminder in tgp they don't get any terts
so peeps will just fucking die to some mechs

its gonna be real zzzz
Maybe they should consider implementing a consistent way to get terts
Like they have with sockies
Spam this
4 or 6 bitcoin for one tert
i think 4 is fine
Forge right MEOW
Cannae
4 is an awkward number
why???
No its good
not enough ore!
gets u 3 / 2 weeks
into the mines u go then
coppelia?
ye
why are u killing those
They were next to me and capped resin
brüg
dno where else to use rn
sorry I can't wrong day for the one I need!
surely u need more than 1!
why everyone craft neck? if i have 1 good haste mastery myth track neck. i will lose alot if i craft embelish on other slot other than neck?
Boots have lower stats too
I crafted boots and wrist for my embellishments
A crafted neck also sims way worse than my current one
It’s just about optimizing with what you’ve got
People crafted neck because it's a piece of jewelry, doesn't cost mainstat which is one of the biggest considerations on where to craft an item, and being able to recraft easily into 1k stats of 2 stats of your choosing is very handy for gearing
But if you're not crafting neck, then wrists, cloak (if no sark cloak), boots and belt are all good slots to craft on
but right now mainstat sims less than secondary stats
like 1 strenght for me is 13 dps and 1 haste for me is 14 dps
I would not use stat weights as a means to figure out where to craft, and instead just use top gear
You can directly add crafted items at the top of top gear, if you don't have it yet
i just remember in the begining of addon 1 strenght was twice dps gain vs other secondaries. and right now its less.
if its wrong math. thats ok,
No that's just how it works out for warrior in particular
I promise you the mathing is not wrong ^^
Silm corrected me in that its actually true for like 50% of specs this tier
hmm
Fair
Have not fact checked other specs
Just know our AP scalings in particular are not great because of Armoured to the Teeth
Its part of the problem, but i dont think we're completely sure as to why thats the case
unless its a development from the past 3 weeks where i've been hard afk
Couldn't tell you either, I'm too dumb to deep dive that stuff
Cause other classes have a similar "issue" and no Armored to the Teeth equivalent
Cuz the more str you have, the less value getting more provides as its a flat value
Whereas secondary stats provide %
Increasing 18000str by 100 is alot less effective gain than increasing 9000 str by 100
But 6000 crit will always remain 40% or however much
Secondary stats act as amplifiers to the mainstat
bottom line, at this moment do we care to craft neck or no? if at current state of the game strenght doesnt provide as much as before?
Depends on the gear you currently have equipped
I crafted bsl on cloak and boots cuz I had shit boots, don't want on bracers cuz CR bracers and I like my big haste neck for prot
so probably i recraft neck embelish on other slot. coz got haste mastery myth track neck.
with avoidance
Sounds like a better play
so was wondering. If you don't like a 'use trinket like puzzle' OCE trinket combined with Icon is a good option for m+?
yessir
or you guys say puzzle with oce is the best combo
puzzle oce is objectively better
but puzzle can suck a fat one
so oce + icon it is
k thx! will test it and well see
also i see many people with 2 items with silken. so will recraft bracers also i think
Hello what best trinket combo? On single target
if fight is short like 2 min and less i would take torch xD
and if u play in pugs so 10 times TORCH Xd
anyway if someone asks about what combo trinkets its better, they should take 100% torch. coz prolly they play in mediocre raids where people tend to die 2+ times a fight
Chromathic another?
I would never recommend picking Torch assuming your runs are gonna go poorly, unless all you do is boost
If you want a good short fight trinket, Puzzle Box is a good on-use option and otherwise just 2 stat sticks, like OCE, Icon and/or Pips will be fine
icon gang
Pips soon tm
orange item pretty ok
iconic
I was at 1.2 mil overall by the time we got to crawth
and I didn't even get pi on the first pull, they gave that to enha
wep was like 85k dps by then
Almost like I told you that for about 2 months

grats on the funny orange item
Hey guys, raid team’s warrior is main swapping and was going to try warrior for my first time. How does arms actually feel to play? I’ve read rotation guides just trying to get an understanding from arms players. Thanks!
I used to play ranged dps, now i just want to smash things.
Feels good
hows Arms looking TWW?
id remember that psyduck picture from the mage discord
I am not paying for beta
Check in with archis thoughts in the channel thingy
cheers!!!!!
This is the way
Does amalgam carry over the fatality marks for 2nd phase?
dont think so
Would it be worth it to drop fatality for that boss?
depends on your strat but the answer is maybe
if you check the top 100 logs for arms most didnt bother
@fresh spire @boreal quartz do you th unhing better hurrican? i thin kwiht tieset ikt good.
Acoustic moment
cooking rank 1
What's a hutricsne
Can anyone tell me what expertise cap in CATA is for arms?
oh i didnt know of that ty mate
Does legendary really add that much dps? I’m 511 and feel like I’m slacking a bit dps compared to my Hunter at the same ilvl. My ST rotation on bosses is really where I need work. I’m using Ashkandur until I can snag a Fyrakk.
Yes
Lego is like 10%
It's OBSCENE
any idea why Balance isn't on there?
No clue, but iirc it's roughly 400k~
So for execute phase is the goal to avoid overcapping rage and avoiding using less than 40 rage per execute? Or is there some reason that overpower is used below 40 rage aside from building rage for the next execute?
Removed by the devs
Goal is ms on CD with 2 EP
Ideally it's 3 exe ms loop
But generally you might of instead of 3rd exe if rage dictates it
I assume that having a windfury totem helps make 3rd Exe more sustainable
It's quite rare that I ever actually have enough rage to pull that off aside from during recklessness
It's mainly why arms is so miserable without it
Sure overall it's like 10k
But in execute it's a lot of damage
But I imagine it makes it a lot less of a Pita in execute XD
No enhance in my team so I'll just have to deal with it
No enha no fun wcyd
Terrible design to be a 5 man buff be that impactful to the fun in our gameplay
I've come to the realization that I still have other places to learn in the spec before the enhance buff will matter that much XD
Need to escape the grey zone, and I think my execute phase is contributing to that
It's generally doable to get 90+ without WFT on mythic assuming good play etc
Fwiw got a Pips with bullion yesterday and it rocked. Trinkets set now except for a mythic puzzle box from vault.
Still working on the fundamentals it would seem doing around 300-330K when I sim around 400k in raid assuming it’s some core failure in my rotation
It's okay to get from a drop but a really shit bullion lmao
Cuz it loses to brand etc on 5 and loses to box on shorter
Raid gave me pips two weeks ago
Sims better than oce and icon for me in MT
Assuming no buffs*
Your take. I have a Signet for the few 5+ minute fights. I can run pips + box if I want. Gave me the most flexibility for what I want to do. That or start saving for cosmetic items since I have the mount already.
there is mount u can buy with bullion?
the cat from fated no?
yeah
shouldve played sl wcyd
skipped the exp
Does anyone actually use the "Enduring Dreadplate" in any scenario?
idk apparently the facet that it now consumes all stacks when it times out suddenly makes it a massively good trinket (cope i believe)
but like it should be "useable" as dps
probably as like a branch of tormented whatever equivalent
just some mid to ok damage proc on a 2min cd or somethin
I really miss mortal combo. The sound of 2 MS in a row was so great
play eb or
@smoky kayak I have a question about this statement: Only use Cleave with 2 stacks of Martial Prowess (and only >4 targets if during Sweeping Strikes), prioritized just after the afformentioned Whirlwind.
what do I press if everything is on CD (OP, Cleave, WW) and I'm not at 2 stacks of MP?
I've been using TC because MS is the only other thing I can press and it would just consume my stacks of MP
TC will trigger a Tactician proc, so yeah use it
sweet ty
what are people buying with their extra bullion?
a signet?
an icon for lazy factor?
mb a torch
It’s good for any boss that lasts more than 4-5 minutes really
If your guild has slow kill times it can be good on the mid bosses also
I only run heroics... and sometimes boss dies in like 30 sec
LOL signet/anvil are not the best heroic trinkets imo
duddent death can now stack two times
Ye
sudden
Developer’s note: We feel that Arms has an overwhelming number of abilities they must use in their AOE rotation, so we’re making Cleave replace Whirlwind to help alleviate that.
GOD BLESS
why did it take so many years to realize this?
I’d rather have lost TC personally
Damn son...
Aoe rend with cleave or WW
Is that TWW? or live
TWW beta
TC imo shouldnt be removed because of the slow it has, or rather ifthey get rid of TC I would probably put the slow on something else
any1 has MS sanguine wA?
sanguine weakaura?
like to track the Debuff we apply to reduce healing on the target?
No, how much healing it reduced
oh spiffy
@quasi torrent made it
Thank you
or stole it and modified it w/e
i heard that guy is really cool
it was more of a modify
hate that guy
arms meta for sanguiny week?
nay
hate to change the ids, CLEU event
poggers
and cleaned up some useless shit code
irrelevant question tbh but https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/rQqt186M7QN7qjqjjvdi8g
what to buy?
oh jesus it's actually sanguine this week
yes, also known as afk week
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/nkuzmicwtvB6mxrKaHcp4P @slender sonnet
shit gear POV
@olive nestwhich
suck me
Babe arms utility copium weakaura just dropped
like turn 3 or so no build yet
Are you trynna win or have fun
win
Inflame if you trynna win
it's an insane copium weakaura
Inflame
i'm a big fan
crit can you tell me what you would buy if you were me on that sim?
you can say "yo my mortal strike just prevented 15m healing on that big dude"
im inclind on going ring
the thing is
and that's huge tbf
it doesnt count overhealing
Yuggee
cause it doesnt show up in the healing event properly
or well
iit has its own event
and i dont track those


STS mid raid is fun 

yeah like i said can't have fun with this
but hey i'm glad it's staying in tww
love that
