it just shouldn't be your 2nd in damage

cerulean grove
#

just ran another key

#

im fucking up somewhere lol

wicked aurora
#

you're not pressing buttons enough

mild umbra
#

if im using diurna ring i should use an embelishment to proc it or just the helmet is enough?

#

If you dont have leggo Idk if its worth using shadowflame or not

#

That would be a question for one of the bigger warriors here

#

i changed my mind again, im back to playing switch axe

#

thats an arms warrior weapon surely

#

is there a talent thats cooldown reduction for bladestorm?

#

could someone post a dps meter for a mythic+. id like to compare averages

cerulean grove
#

What do you guys use for 2nd embellish, mainly doing mythic+

old urchin
limpid snow
#

overall

old urchin
#

This was a 13 nelth

limpid snow
#

damn, im fucking up then

old urchin
limpid snow
#

it was just a 7 but still seems low

outer holly
#

low for a 7, but also your overall is largely dependent on a decent tank

limpid snow
#

it was my first dps attempt this season. ive been tanking

outer holly
#

Like I can do either 350k or 500 in the same dungeon, same key between 2 diff tanks

limpid snow
#

it feel like every button wants to be pushed at the same time

earnest imp
#

whats the go to keys arms build atm?

outer holly
#

Can't go wrong with single BS

#

Every button does want to be pressed, that's why we have to map out our aoe/ST openers

limpid snow
#

brain small, sword big

old urchin
limpid snow
#

if i post breakdown could you gauge where i might be going wrong?

outer holly
#

worth asking at least

old urchin
#

Post it up

limpid snow
outer holly
#

imma go for a smoke first tho

#

TR seems pretty low

limpid snow
#

i think im not cleaving enough in multi

#

ive been spamming ms during sweeping strikes

outer holly
#

Cleave in 3 target/4 /w SS when you have 2 stacks of MP

cerulean grove
#

hows your mortal strike so high?

outer holly
#

Prio on MS over cleave in aoe explains that

old urchin
#

Roar should be a lot higher.

outer holly
#

Seems like a case of improper CD usage

old urchin
#

And signet brand isn’t great for dungeons/AoE.

limpid snow
outer holly
#

Yeah id like to see signet uptime, can usually gauge how off the mark someone's DPS is by static shit like trinkets

limpid snow
#

37% uptime

old urchin
#

Make sure you’re cleaving like others have said. You don’t have to wait for 2x overpower buff to press it. You only need to wait for 2 stacks if you’re dumping prio damage into a mob like a caster that needs to die quickly etc.

limpid snow
outer holly
#

I don't know how much you can trust details on that, doesn't brand turn in to a different effect when logged at 15 stacks?

teal fossil
#

i definitely would not trust details

#

also 37% uptime is pretyt low

#

even for details

limpid snow
#

i have a self aura tahts higher

teal fossil
#

considering you should have at least 1 stack up mostof the time

limpid snow
outer holly
#

89% rend uptime? I never tracked that before tbh

limpid snow
#

i suppose the 37% might be the damage split component of signet

teal fossil
#

89% seems reasonable

outer holly
#

I'll take your word for it then

limpid snow
#

so as it stands, more cleave and cd usage, different trinket

outer holly
#

Just feel craft here but 93% uptime sounds admirable, depending on where the drops occurred

#

But yeah while it's still good, especially from whatever breakdown that was, you're better off with another trinket in many other instances. We can't really give you any direct feedback without logs but yeah it's a good start

limpid snow
#

appreciate it. ill look into some changes. im really just looking to get a few more 10s done to get the last of the portals so i can disregard this season

outer holly
#

yeah same, portal farm+raid log was this season's plan

limpid snow
#

i could just go back prot and be solid, but a friend wants to tank and our crew is light on players that are situationally aware

outer holly
#

heard chef

#

Got one person in my group that didn't realize for 4 dungeons that "Passive" meant his pet was

#

old urchin

Oh no haha

#

mop remix friends - what are you gemming? the guide says to dip into mastery/vers once you hit the crit/haste breakpoints but after a certain point haste/vers must be bis right?

limpid snow
#

one of our healers logged on a dps and did 30k

outer holly
#

your tinker gems are a majority of your damage, I believe they work similarly to trinkets in that they're affected by crit/verse, so once you're sufficiently OP verse is the only way to scale your damage by any noticable margin

gray steeple
#

Speed gems.

limpid snow
#

doesnt speed cap too

outer holly
#

49% 😦

#

unless they broke that for remix, i never bothered checking

#

It's funny, I actually have more run speed on retail than I do remix in my speed set

gray steeple
#

It doesn’t for DH. Mastery contributes to run speed. Can hit some crazy numbers.
Assumed it’s the same for all classes.
Anyways, stuff dies so quickly why worry about gemming to get a slight boost at best?

outer holly
#

Nah it's like that on retail, DH mastery is separate from the speed stat scaling/DR

#

oh but unironically no, speed is the best stat until cap, 9/10 times I'm being carried by some 476 who's 20 rooms ahead of me

gray steeple
#

Also, you could get crazy stats in Torghast. Once, I had like 200% run speed, haste and mastery.

outer holly
#

I was actual shite in Torghast. Was a surv main back then and the final bosses decimated me every time

#

I was just an LFR hero back then tho

mild umbra
#

crafting a belt rn, im simmin haste/mast way better than crit/haste

#

thats right?

gray steeple
#

Right now, if that’s what the sims say. But consider what gear you might upgrade and then stats will change. Or recraft the belt later.

cold vigil
#

so MS applies rend to targets below 35% hp, but i noticed it sometimes applies above that threshold too. For example I am doing mog runs in Zandalar raids and dungeons and sometimes even hitting a full health boss will apply rend (without dropping it below 35% hp)

#

is there anything im missing that also applies rend through MS?

boreal quartz
#

Sweeped off of a thing in execute (intended)

#

Randomly applying in overworld/legacy conzent (bug)

i think its not a bug

cold vigil
#

Lol

boreal quartz
#

ultra nieche uses tbf

cold vigil
#

I guess the way it counts is- it applies the exact same instance of damage x0,75 and debufs to a nearby target

#

So ashkandur proc should sweep too right?

boreal quartz
#

thats a weapon thing not an actual spell

cold vigil
#

So it doesn't?

do you only get one use of leggo on gnarlroot mythic?

slender sonnet
#

well

#

it depends on fight length

boreal remnant
#

was looking at logs earlier today and the r1 guy sent his first roar a whole minute in and leggo 1.5 mins in

#

feel like that's just...padding

#

going into mythic there for the first time next week so trying to learn the cd timings

slender sonnet
#

wtf

#

yeah it looks like he's holding it for an add pack

#

rather than just sending on pull

#

so yeah its' just padding

boreal remnant
#

for a whole ass minute

slender sonnet
#

yeah

boreal remnant
#

could've fit a whole extra roar in

#

people and parses man

slender sonnet
#

maybe not

#

cause he pops it at 00:51, in top groups like that the adds will be dead normally before it's back

boreal remnant
#

meant an extra roar throughout the fight

#

not just before adds come

halcyon breach
#

You get 2 uses if you just send Charge -> MS -> Lego

slender sonnet
#

it doesn't look like he casts it a 2nd time

#

weird

halcyon breach
#

Personally I have not min/max'd potential Gnarlroot parsing, but sending on pull means you'll also have it for damage phase

slender sonnet
#

yeah it looks like he's just cheesing add damage

#

rank 1 overall, 98 parse for boss damage

boreal remnant
#

not really into that myself but I guess big details bar looks nice

#

how do you check for boss damage specifically?

halcyon breach
slender sonnet
#

if you're using lorrgs it's this noption

boreal remnant
#

can I check that on my own personal logs?

#

because like on zaqali I only got a 81 but I topped boss damage

Hey guys 2 questions:

  1. can we sweeping strikes execute damage onto a secondary target who is not under 35%

  2. what does cleave mean when it says it consumes the overpower effect

Yes
Your overpower buffs your next mortal strike or cleave, stacks up to 2

u have to be mindful of dpsing when stack gets high.

eternal vortex

or just get md

thnx got i have a sp friend

i also do take second wind on bursting affix

frigid lava
#

it gives a reason not to invite a warrior lol

eternal vortex
#

but affixes still stink in beta

frigid lava
#

new affixes announced already?

eternal vortex
#

Yeah i was referring to that

#

some of the combinations are nasty

#

like fort+raging+focused

#

sure u have soothes but still

frigid lava
#

I don't like these new affixes. Every week there will be certain preferred classes

teal fossil
frigid lava
#

ah ic

teal fossil
#

but that is the design yes, every week you prefer a certain set of classes

old urchin
#

At least we have a physical damage/bleed week.

teal fossil
#

ye technically arms has 1 more week than others

frigid lava
#

what's the other week

teal fossil
#

reduced armor week

#

and bleed week

#

both good for us

frigid lava
#

Ah yea... at least 2/4

#

Fury is only 1/4

eternal vortex
#

Meanwhile dh does all types of dmg

#

Hehe

teal fossil
frigid lava
#

dh has bleed damage?

teal fossil
#

chaos damage is every type

frigid lava
#

oh

teal fossil
#

the bleed damage week is also nature

#

and chaos damage is also nature

#

so they get 10% damage every week

#

but something like immolation aura+eye beam is just gonna get nerfed by 10% as a result

eternal vortex
#

My problem with new affixes is that some classes get more benefit than others

teal fossil
#

how so

#

everything is 10%

#

30% armor reduction is 9%

#

but 9 is basically 10

frigid lava
#

Certain claases getting "favored"

#

depending on affixes.

teal fossil
#

30% bleed is also about 10% damage on warrior

teal fossil
#

ye

visual fern
#

Oh you're talking armor/bleeds

#

Didn't scroll up enough

teal fossil
#

i mean like

since dh is getting buffed by an affix every week

they are just gonna get nerfed baseline

Raging+focused is a week thats gonna be fun

Happened in feb
Thought it was just a bruise so I kept status quo
Turns out my tendon was boomed and bit of blood pooled around the joint so working busy season + using side buttons mouse exacerbated it so bad I couldn't grab my mouse, much less make a fist by end of busy season

question the 15sec and 50 sec cd should i wait for certain CD to be combined?

#

i feel thats where im messing up a lot i dont know if i should wait or just throw cd's off cd

dire hinge
copper summit
#

in M+ sometimes some cds are close to be up all together but 1 thats like 15seconds

#

and i was looking at warcraft logs i see some ppl do roar then warbreaker every time

dire hinge
#

yeah, roaring before/after is a bit of a wash it doesn't really matter

#

most of roar's damage is from the DoT ticks, not the cast itself

copper summit
#

is there one i really need to make sure i do befor the other? if they both are up?

strange perch
#

Roar -> Avatar+WB if I’m remembering right

dire hinge
#

Generally you follow the priority list on WoWHead and guage whether or not you want to use cooldowns based on the current state of your combat. Meaning like, if spells are coming up, but your'e mid-combat and they'll die soon-- probably hold them for the next pack

copper summit
#

mmm ok yea i just wanna make sure becasue i did a 13 BH and i did 444k and another arms warrrior did 560

dire hinge
#

I'd look at the comparison in details between where the damage happened (spell breakdowns) and on which packs.

#

Avatar before Warbreaker is always a good one, but yeah you can Roar before or after Avatar/WB and it doesn't really matter.

  • Avatar lasts 20.
  • Roar lasts 16 seconds.
  • Warbreaker lasts 10.
    These don't perfectly align, but as long as Roar is ticking while Avatar/WB are applied then your'e good to go

#

i think i found out what ive been doing wrong ive came from fury and their ww makes it so ur auto attacks others... so i thought arms did the same

dire hinge
#

ah! That's understandable, but yes, we rely on Sweeping Strikes to do that

copper summit
#

ive been pressing sweeping but i just thought it does more aoe lol

#

like spreads to more

dire hinge
#

Totally, yeah Arms is a priority damage spec, with Sweeping hitting a second target. The neat thing being that "Dreadnaught" will spawn 2 lines with sweeping active (and they both hit targets independently)

#

so you can hit the same target with 2 lines with a single button press, as long as there's a 2nd target nearby

copper summit
#

ah ok thank you this helps a lot

dire hinge
#

of course! I love helping with these little lightbulb moments, it's a bunch of weird-shaped puzzle pieces that need to fit together at times

inner wasp
#

prio list gives me an aneurism when i looked at it while trying to learn arms lol

dire hinge
#

haha yeah the big list of conditionals can be a big cognitive load, moreso talking about "if you have a question about what button to pressin [X] situation, the priority list will likely answer it"

inner wasp
#

my problem with the prio lists is when weird conditionals and cooldowns get put at the top of it

#

cuz like yes. obviously ur cooldowns get prioritized over the regular rotation, if applicable

#

but trying to learn ur regular rotation and having to look halfway down the list to even see it is weird

#

if it were up to me, and im sure theres a good reason this isnt done cuz im not the guide writers

#

id have a "rotation/priority (no cooldowns)" list and then a "how to use cooldowns" section

dire hinge
#

For sure, everyone learns thing differently, there's not really a wrong answer

#

Great feedback though, it's always appreciated

halcyon breach
#

You can follow the conditionals if you want to be optimal, but if it's too much, simply doing
Cleave at 5+ targets
MS with sweeping on 4 targets and if prio
Overpower
Should get you far honestly

#

As your main globals spent

inner wasp
halcyon breach
#

I don't write guides, but it's sorta hard to make a one fits all, when there are technical improvements you can make in your play depending on what you have

inner wasp
#

especially because arms rotation changes depending on sweeping strikes and target count, trying to condense it all into one prio list kinda breaks the brain to look at

halcyon breach
#

You can make a simple overview, which would get you, hypothetically, 95% of the way

#

But not cover the last 5%

#

Or make one that covers 100%, but make it harder to read for some and follow

inner wasp
#

like say u know nothing about arms. literally nothing
ur at ur 5 target cleave training dummy and ur staring at this

#

its kinda hard to parse this immediately

halcyon breach
#

Personally I prefer the 100%, but I can definitely see people wanting the 95% iteration

halcyon breach
dire hinge
#

save us TWW gladge

halcyon breach
#

It's a very known issue, which is why I typically recommend just following a more simplified rotation if it makes it easier to follow, since honestly unless you're doing push keys, it wont matter and you'll still do very near peak potential damage by doing so

#

I personally just kinda press buttons by feel whenever I do M+, although I've not really done higher than 14s this season because I just don't care enough to

#

But my damage does not really suffer from it

copper summit
#

i would love for the meta to go away already.. its hard getting in keys with incorp and aflicted

dire hinge
#

im ready for incorp/afflicted to go away too

wooden tide
#

just cleave>Op>cleave>op and ww on cd in aoe

inner wasp
#

i couldnt care less about incorp/afflicted tbh

dire hinge
inner wasp
#

i cant do them so its not my problem

#

😌

copper summit
#

thats the thing becasue u cant do them ppl in 14+ keys wont inv u lol

#

its just hard on my end

inner wasp
#

i will NEVER pug a key

#

im in a guild for a reason

#

id rather swallow razor blades than pug keys

#

would be less painful

copper summit
#

i feel like i do way better in pugs than with guild sometimes

inner wasp
#

yea until u dont get invited cuz warrior no utility lol

dire hinge
#

i find my pug skew happens only when the other folks in the key are vastly underperfoming and letting me pick up that slack

copper summit
#

in around 13+ keys its easier to do than a 8 key

halcyon breach
#

Can definitely say I've enjoyed M+ more on my alts, simply because I can take care of affixes that I can't on my warrior

#

As for the damage, I prefer people actually pressing their buttons, but I can typically take care of the damage needs on my own

copper summit
#

i did a +4 on my alt shammy and wiped on first NOK boss lol

formal verge
#

When yall sim for M+ do yall use ST M+ build? Trying to decide which trinket to use, currently says augury over myth pbox but i think its due to not taking any of the crit stats from the talent tree

gray steeple
formal verge
#

@gray steeple Im rocking Mbox+OCE Atm. I just wonder if the reason Augury is pulling ahead is because of the crit boost it gives considering the lack of 4% crit from cruel strikes/critical thinking. Would it be actually worth it via the sim or is it bait and stick with puzzle/oce

gray steeple
odd mist
#

Augury has better priority damage and pbox has more padding. If your group is organized and you don’t need more priority damage I think pbox is better for overall. If you play mostly pugs where everyone is padding like crazy I would go with augury for priority damage and get higher chance of timming keys.

cinder ocean
formal verge
odd mist
#

Maybe I got baited by the single target sims and I am wrong. In this case I think pbox is better.

#

But for unorganized pugs priority damage is king, so other trinkets can be better than pbox in this case.

teal fossil
#

St trinket doesn’t mean it does prio damage

olive nest
#

I’d run Pbox and a stat stick

olive nest
teal fossil
#

then again you need more crit to make augury work better

#

so its really a give and take

#

the crit on the trinket is inconsequential

odd mist
#

Is there a way to sim priority damage?

gaunt owl
#

single target with your aoe build

if you really need prio dmg you gonna favor ST anyway and let the bleeds take over the AOE

Hey just trying out arms for the first time. Little confused on whether to be prioritizing cleave or ms on different target counts with and without sweeping strikes. Is there a definitive number of mobs when I should be cleaving instead?

outer holly
#

yep

#

More than 2 targets cleave

#

More than 3 when SS is up

#

Or cleave at 3 targets, 4 targets /w SS

gaunt owl

Some people get confused by the wording

You are gonna die of old age before arms rework

I feel sorry for u ppaww

outer holly

Isnt the math kinda close at 4 targets /w SS?

#

I'm not sure how wrong my advice is

gaunt owl

yeah kinda

#

everything is shit and blurry anyway

SS is the best ability in the game

but blizzard are too stupid to make it good

# lunar lotus best oathstone buff for trinket?

Usually Crit or Haste, but if you can hit 40/40/20/20 with Black, I wouldn't shrug it off
Also, if you run content with 4+ other people who use the other colors, sometimes being the 5th Power Ranger is Best

true latch
#

no some were from last season

#

but that sshouldnt matter, right? its based on the number of greater embers and difficulty

olive nest
#

I don’t have data to support this but i have a hunch that you need 14 kills in the same patch for it to be 100% drop chance. Because I’ve read here multiple times now people having well over 14 and not having it

Some guy in here last week had 21 kills

Though there is a sweet spot on kill times where the gnarlroot trinket surpasses pbox

gray steeple
#

Signet + Augury for 5+ minute fights. Augury--Pips--Puzzlebox in some combo for shorter fights works well.

west wasp
#

i will do that friend thank you ❤️

halcyon breach
#

You are completely omitting the fact that Icon and OCE exists, which are both better options than Augury, for any fight

#

In a raid setting at this point of the season, you are very likely to find at least a few buffs of OCE in a raid, Icon not as likely

#

If you want a general setup for raid, Puzzle + Passive stat stick for short fights (depending on group setup)
Signet + Passive stat stick for 5+ minute fights

hey guys returning warrior. having trouble figuring out when to use bs on aoe pulls

#

using the general m+ build. the guide states to use bs on lower prio below the general cds

#

do we use it after warbreaker, and not during ss?

frigid lava
#

it lines up with troar

indigo bobcat
#

how? roar is a 1 min cd using the hybrid build

frigid lava
#

anger management

indigo bobcat
#

because of the am?

#

ahh kk

frigid lava
#

yea somehow they line up almost perferctly

indigo bobcat
#

so i should be using roar + bs together, is it better to use that after the warbreaker + ava combo then?

frigid lava
#

u want the troar dots boosted... so warbreaker + ava + tier bonus(crit from ms or cleave or execute) + bs stack

#

bs itself doesn't do much dmg.. but it gives 30% boost

indigo bobcat
#

ooh okay i was misreading the guide prio list then

#

and id pop roar right before using all cds or just after to get the full bs dmg boost?

frigid lava
#

i use bs after troar

#

dots last 16 sec.

indigo bobcat
#

ok makes sense

#

ava is 20s, use wb + ava, roar, then bs

#

then when thats done, ss and continue the regular prio

#

or... whirlwind, ss, then prio? bruh this list is confusing hahaha

astral yarrow
#

yeah you want to send your full set of CDs, WW then SS to sweep OP and MS

#

arms aoe is a mess of priority and has been the entire xpac

indigo bobcat
#

yeah no kidding

#

and in ss, im using ms on 4 or less enemies when i hit 2 stacks of MP

#

but at 4 targets exactly, you can cleave or ms?

astral yarrow
#

if your only priority is aoe, yeah, you ignore MS mostly and spend globals on OP and cleave

indigo bobcat
#

sweet thanks

#

that clears it up a lot. ran a dungeon for the first time in forever and wasnt using cds properly. makes sense now

astral yarrow
#

when playing a class that has cooldown reduction, its almost always better to send your cds regardless of the situation (ofc not if shit is dying in 5 sec). Any time you are spending rage with CDs ready you are losing a lot of casts
