This was the worst part. Decreased utilities. U never get invitedšŸ˜‚

storm prism
#

High keys are less about DPS and more about buffs and util

south merlin
#

DH overall dps is always easy if u play it good. I find it hard to beat a good DH

storm prism
#

Yeah but havoc never sees play because vengeance is in most groups

#

Even without double sigils its looking like Veng will be one of the better tanks

south merlin
#

I do believe even with the decrease arms got they will be on top. So instead of hitting 1.5m MS it will be like 1m
Fine

#

Good thing they did not touch bladestorm so that we still exist in M+ damage meters

storm prism
#

Arms will always be held back in keys by survivability/util rather than damage

#

Why take the arms when the Fury can basically tank the dungeon while doing the same if not more damage than arms?

gaunt owl
#

lol utility

manic stirrup
#

utility almost never matters

gaunt owl
#

and dmg its all about prio dmg in higher key

manic stirrup
#

fury is a little tankier than arms but these are 2 of the tankiest specs in the game

storm prism
#

I agree. Arms is definitely tanky. But they are much more reliant on the healer keeping them up.

#

And saying util doesn't matter in keys is something only a class with no util would say to cope.

manic stirrup
#

its something good players recognize

#

spriest was never meta bc of utility

#

they always brought insane damage

#

mage isnt meta bc of utility its bc they synergize so well with how spriest plays in the group

storm prism
#

We're ignoring fort buff, PI, and MD then yeah?

manic stirrup
#

pi isnt utility

#

if spriest didnt do relevant damage they would not be brought

gaunt owl
#

the spriest isnt gonna game his PI around his mage

manic stirrup
#

simple as that

#

everytime any class is meta ppl point to utility but overlook that class happens to do the most damage

gaunt owl
#

if any warrior spec was doing more dmg it would be meta

manic stirrup
#

yeah dude warlocks are so good they have healthstones and gates

#

yeah man monks have so much utility they have hella cc

#

oh dude druids are just insane they have 2 very short cd stops

storm prism
#

Why are we acting like I said DPS doesn't matter? I'm saying the complete and utter lack of the ability to help your group is what keeps warrior out of the meta

#

B-b-but rally!

#

Gimme a break

manic stirrup
#

if warriors did the most damage they would be brought to keys

#

also if mass barrier is what ppl say makes mage op rally is atleast an okay button

#

and not the garbage ppl claim it is

#

obviously mass barrier is really good and rally is underwhelming bc its tuned around being so good in raid

storm prism
#

It isn't garbage it just isn't good enough to justify to 3 minute CD

pale jungle
gaunt owl
#

utility talk are pointless

#

its all about the dmg

manic stirrup
#

i agree it’s not good enough

storm prism
woven wasp
#

warrior has intervene, shockwave, fear, bolt, rally, reflect
what utility do you want, a dispell?

storm prism
#

Maybe lust or a way to keep people alive that doesn't have a 12 year CD

manic stirrup
#

mentioning lust makes me believe you have no clue what youre talking about

#

im going back to bed have fun

storm prism
#

"I have no argument so I'm leaving"

#

Nighty night

gaunt owl
#

lust is overblown in m+

storm prism
#

Bait

gaunt owl
#

its not gonna make or break a key

old urchin
#

Oof I dunno about that one my dude.

manic stirrup
#

mordrim and biz did hella keys in s2 with no lust

#

they were doing like 28s

#

lol

opal folio
# storm prism Bait

It really isn’t. It sounds crazy on the surface but then you see a bunch of rank 1 teams relying on drums

gaunt owl
#

the only wall they face in m+ is how to survive

manic stirrup
#

not only has lust been proven to be pretty overrated especially with some specs not liking haste at all

gaunt owl
#

if they can survive anything they can keep pushing

manic stirrup
#

but also hunter has lust and that class has sucked in recent time

storm prism
gaunt owl
#

oh lol

manic stirrup
#

being a rank 1 player is about time and teammates

gaunt owl
#

are you for real

manic stirrup
#

not about being good

storm prism
#

Hunter just can't stay alive. That's what gimps them.

#

No defensives. Same problem as shamans.

opal folio
manic stirrup
#

hunters in s4 shadowlands were brought despite being paper

#

bc they did the most damage

#

#

you lost

storm prism
#

I gotta remember what discord I'm in lol

#

"Utility and defensives don't matter" choco circa 2024

gaunt owl
manic stirrup
#

of course defensives matter but if a class is so strong you will find a way to make it live

gaunt owl
#

you can accomodate to a spec short comings

manic stirrup
#

utility doesnt matter and has almost never mattered

#

utility only matters in things like s1 df when everything is so well and tightly tuned you bring things that compliment other specs you have

#

some ppl ran enhance and rogues and others ran caster comps

storm prism
#

Will it make or break a key? Maybe not depending on what it is.

#

Will it keep people alive and make keys MUCH easier to time?

#

100% yes.

old urchin
#

Yupppp

manic stirrup
#

so skill issue

old urchin
#

The whole game is a skill issue if you want to over simplify

manic stirrup
#

id argue too much utility makes people complacent

#

and play worse

storm prism
#

That's an interesting take LMFAO

manic stirrup
#

when ppl dont have a good vdh tank they are eating crayons bc they dont know what to do anymore

storm prism
#

Spoken from first hand experience I would imagine

manic stirrup
#

i’ve seen people leave groups because there isn’t a vdh tank and they ā€œdon’t want to thinkā€

gaunt owl
#

VDH doing all the heavy liftings made people shit

#

they dont even bind their kicks anymore

old urchin
#

Who are these players that aren’t binding kick

#

That’s gotta be hyperbole

gaunt owl
#

they do forget that they can kick

south merlin
#

So fury is now better than arms? Did not follow up alot on fury tbh

storm prism
#

Feel like it depends

#

Raid I feel is arms all day except for maybe council bosses. But in keys Fury is definitely better.

#

For now at least

old urchin
#

Plus Fury rotation is easier (to me). There aren’t as many conditions as Arms you just WW and do your ST rotation.

hazy flower
hazy flower
#

That you actually did as fury

old urchin
#

I didn’t start playing Fury till prepatch. I realize what I stated is very anecdotal but I can only describe how it feels.

hazy flower
#

I dont want to sound insulting but in a real season (prepatch is very different for obvious reasons) not being able to live stuff as arms is in fact a skill issue. There are very very little situations where you kind of need to be a fury warrior and its only on tyrannical weeks

old urchin
#

Arms had way more close calls and ā€œoopsā€ deaths that don’t happen as fury. The margin of error is very obvious to me.

#

Tyrannical comes to mind when I talk about surviving things.

hazy flower
#

I haven’t done much warrior keys in season 4 but in season 3 keys where you need to be fury are tot/ad (you’ll respec anyways so u can be arms most of the key and fury for yazma) and everbloom since it had lots of rot damage where fury self heal was brutally good

old urchin
#

Lol yall I know what defensives both specs have. I never claimed to be a top tier player or that there isn’t a skill issue.

#

But saying ā€œlolignorepainā€ is just silly.

hazy flower
#

Zhai just suggested more clever use of IP since that and d stance are generally underused

silk spade
#

idk i got the feeling you were making the argument that arms doesn't survive stuff without fyrakk trinket

#

i didn't call you bad i don't know what buttons you press

#

a lot of people don't even know about IP stacking

storm prism
#

Stances dance + IP is very strong but fury is simply better at staying alive. Also easier on your healer since they have loads of innate leech and self heals in their rotation.

hazy flower
#

And most keys were easily livable till prob 18’s on tyra? Like u didnt have to do anything even remotely fancy

old urchin
#

I didn’t think you called me bad. I can only report what ā€œfeelsā€ better and fury just does feel better.

hazy flower
#

And things where you kinda wanna be fury because its too much pressure are very specific and niche

zealous pivot
#

outside of noxiv im pretty sure the other title warriors last season were all arms

silk spade
#

point was that if you feel arms is squishy enough to warrant fyrakk trinket, you probably have some room for improvement in the defensive department

old urchin
hazy flower
#

Lots of fury merchants in high keys

old urchin
#

And also D stance. Before prepatch when I started pushing higher D stance just wasn’t required and I didn’t bother. Now I know it’s so required lol

hazy flower
#

Its a good habit

#

When you dont trust your healer you’ll play much more defensively even if you dont need

storm prism
hazy flower
#

But I played with 1 healer friend usually that very rarely struggles

old urchin
#

Heals has been my group’s struggle this season.

hazy flower
#

And if he does he’ll rethink and go do the same key with different plan/talents

storm prism
#

But Arms definitely relies on your healer. Healer dies? Fury is chillin. Arms is gonna fuckin die though.

zealous pivot
#

i was wrong it was 5-4

hazy flower
#

Only 9 warriors have gotten the title?

#

That doesnt sound right

zealous pivot
#

dps

hazy flower
#

Yeah

hazy flower
#

How many titles s3 vs s4

#

In general

#

Because I remember u had tens of titles in s3 among warrior dps

#

Granted some of them were boosted but so were some this season too

zealous pivot
#

iirc it was like almost half of s3

#

in total numbers

hazy flower
#

This chart seems very weird

#

Cutoff is wrong definitely

#

It was 3660/70

zealous pivot
#

prolly a week or two before end

#

idk i cba to look deeper

#

i doubt its too far off

#

but to the earlier convo about dps vs utility

#

anyone who thinks its not about dps is delulu

hazy flower
#

It is about dps

#

Utility talk is always changing

#

Oh this spec is meta damn he has good utility

#

Then meta shifts and suddenly shit spec is meta because of utility

#

Obv raidbuffs come into play

#

But aside from that

zealous pivot
#

tops runs are littered with dk/warrior almost exclusively

#

since prepatch, which i know is a meme

hazy flower
#

And ele

#

yee

#

but it shows people do the highest keys with whatever is overtuned period

Ye title. Is just tuning

#

Utility is overrated

jaunty sigil
#

Yoooo folks - Just getting into arms. Usually play Prot and just wanna get used to DPS specs.

As far as I understand, just lining up damage CDs. colossus smash, avatar, sweeping, ravanger, thunder roar is the way to go. Then also spending your 2 overpowers for enhanced MS or Cleave.

Any major parts im missing?

slow saddle
#

Ms on cd

#

Ms>op>slam in st basicly keep rend up as well

zealous pivot
#

and sks during roar

Sks on CD so that every other one lines up with roar

zealous pivot
#

ya that

#

sorry - whats sks?

jaunty sigil

use that for ST or both?

and slam is now a useful button?

st mainly, and yep

#

we slarms now

slate rain
#

slam sucks

jaunty sigil
#

It doesn't seem like it comes up very often. Better to prio cleave or TC in AoE environments yeah? Slam is pretty much an ST skill?

dire hinge
jaunty sigil
#

@dire hinge fill with MS as well?

#

Ill pretty much being doing M+ with the spec, but also PvP and that's another level of things.

#

Not really a time (yet) that I will be doing DPS in a raid environment.

dire hinge
#

I can’t speak to pvp, but we do have #pvp to help with that.

#

But yes you do use MS as well, which helps with priority damage where needed

jaunty sigil
#

perfect!

#

Not too shabby of a rotation - Is it worth it snag some ST skills at times - Tyrannical weeks n such, or just slam the AoE skills

dire hinge
#

Weirdly enough arms does a lot of AoE without many aoe talents, so our talent tree (currently) makes us take a lot of single target

#

AoE is heavily propped up by just spamming Cleave and Overpower

#

How good is arms/fury in war within?

empty bramble
#

For Skullsplitter, is there a minimum duration of Rend / Deep Wounds we want before casting Skullsplitter? Basically should I refresh the dots before casting for maximum effect, or just send it regardless.

woven wasp
#

It hasn't worked like that for a long time. Just don't let dots fall off

empty bramble
#

hmm, but it cuts the duration in half, is it not adding more damage based on how much of the dot duration its cutting?

plucky fern
#

it adds a debuff on target

#

so if you apply new rend or dw after you cast sks, it will still have half duration and more speed

empty bramble

Ah I see, thank you.

it makes the dots tick twice as fast, it doesnt eat anything

make ur own group or suffer in pugs

#

getting kicked from weeklies for playing arms

odd mist
#

My impression playing arms in m+ is that the AOE rotation is extremely chaotic with too many buttons to press and during the execute phase I do not have enough rage to press execute. Is my perception correct or am I doing something wrong?

dire hinge
#

When it comes to M+, it's mostly just "use major CDs" and then spam Cleave, with Overpower between, using MS/Tclap to fill.
you're correct that Execute phase now leaves us more prone to running out of resources (rage), but with some tweaks to your rotation it's less of an issue.

#

you can't just spam execute or you'll run out of resources quite fast now.
The rule of thumb is to cast Execute at 60+ rage, and Overpower at 0-59.
(then press MS if you have cast Execute twice on the target, to conume the debuffs execute applies)

oh you sweet summer child

alpine moth
#

and that its just something fun to yap about bc there's nothing to do in the game rn

gaunt owl
#

you think people care about what he said in the video

#

look at this

alpine moth
#

ofc not, ive basically only seen people spreading the doc around + cue the horde of nerds angry

gaunt owl
#

people just come in with the number

#

and forget everything else

alpine moth
#

but thats not his fault, people need to use brain

#

for 2 seconds

gaunt owl
#

when we fucking have a spreadsheet with every sims we did

alpine moth
#

ya and that is the spreadsheet he links in his doc

gaunt owl
#

thats public

#

no thats not

dire hinge
#

number bigger do gooder dracthyr_nod

gaunt owl
#

our spreadsheet isnt that one

alpine moth
#

ok

gaunt owl
#

when you say you do research

#

and you dont and throw number

#

we come after you

#

thats what we did

alpine moth
#

well i hope it did it for u

gaunt owl
#

basically asking around any discord if they have work done is basic 1o1 research

dire hinge
#

haha, admittedly when i saw "arms can't sim", i was caught off guard by it, since we have some very extensive sim sheets going back weeks

#

(shared openly)

gaunt owl
#

for a month we started

#

as soon as Arma told us hero talent were in

alpine moth
#

so i clicked on ur doc

#

andi clicked on his doc

#

and im clicking between both of them

#

and im noticing that no piece of information is changing at all

#

and this is exactly the experience i had when I looked at it earlier

gaunt owl
#

so you dont swap to the different tab ?

alpine moth
#

the link on his doc just takes it to ur doc

dire hinge
#

use the tabs at the bottom to choose which spec and hero tree

alpine moth
#

ya

#

i know that

#

im saying

#

its the same shit

#

u said it was wrong

#

its literally just a link that goes to ur doc

gaunt owl
#

oh so he fixed it after 12 hours

alpine moth
#

it was this way hours ago

#

idk

#

dh sims got updated in like 30 mins basically

#

every discord got baited

#

into actually giving him

dire hinge
#

dunno, earlier it was not linked ĀÆ_(惄)_/ĀÆ

alpine moth
#

the updated numbers

gaunt owl
#

we didnt get baited

alpine moth
#

its a joke

gaunt owl
#

we are tired of people spreading misinformation

lmao

gaunt owl
#

like its the bible

alpine moth
#

did he?

#

his FIRST

gaunt owl
#

and we have people throwing the screenshot after

#

in the video

gaunt owl
#

look at the comment in his youtube video

#

you have people saying you cant trust the sim because you dont know who made it

#

but they gonna trust a youtuber

alpine moth
#

i think its fine to not like this dude or his content, he's clearly just farming clicks (like most)

#

but he literally tells u

#

instantly

#

that its 4fun video

dire hinge
#

for sure

#

one of those fun things where even with tons of prefacing folks just dive in and look for what they want to see

alpine moth
#

wow andys are so obsessed w number go up that all ive seen in discords all day is randoms asking about this doc tho lol

gaunt owl
#

thats all they want

#

to know wich spec is better

#

instead of playing their favorite spec

dire hinge
#

dracthyr_nod just have fun

alpine moth
#

i saw someone say something like "if you have to ask, you're probably not even in the crowd of people who it would even matter for"

#

thats kinda how i feel about that stuff, it just doesnt really matter for me bc im not gonna be pushing 0.1% content

dire hinge
#

for sure, some folks like to be aware due to the wave of stigma that then follows.
"omg you're playing boomie?? no thank you" kinda stuff

hexed saddle
alpine moth
#

wow i made it way more yappy

#

but yes

gaunt owl
#

problem is sometimes the guild officer dont know better

#

and gonna force people to play whats "best"

hexed saddle
#

its one of my favorite sayings for when 1 too many people come in to ask which spec is better

follow the meta instead of having your player on their favorite spec

tbf all the numbers are made up, even the stuff paw linked is out of date every 5 minutes; I added another 100k to slayer last night that's not tracked yet and it'll probably change again tomorrow

it does the (forbidden S word) as we gain more stats, so not out of the gate, but eventually catches up as we get a larger quantity of secondary stats

#

Hello, I was wondering why wowhead guide states that Haste is our lowest priority stat. I checked some high-end players, both for m+ and top logs and they are all stacked with haste

boreal quartz
#

You have a shit on of all stats right now

#

So i can comfortably have my 40% haste and still have 50+% crit and 45+% mast

With idk how much vers

Also it's prepatch i am not recrafting anymore cba

And are there some guesses what will be stat prio for TWW?

Hello everyone, quick question.
Ravager vs Bladestorm.

What do u prefer?

manic stirrup
#

ravager

south merlin
# manic stirrup ravager

For the fact that you keep casting while it is going ? or what exactly...
I tried both, Ravager built is pretty nice for boss fights due toithe fact that it is more priority built.
However felt like BS burst more in AOE.

manic stirrup
#

ravager is so much better

#

just need to play around collateral damage and mbg

south merlin
#

I saw some chats before in the group saying that MS > OP

#

Does this change the 2 OP stacks fact?

outer holly
#

Are you conflating op with exe?

#

Oh sorry I may have misread that, are you talking about the op buffs or the idea of not letting OP hit max CD stacks?

south merlin
#

but I read some here in the group mentioning MS on CD, and MS > OP > Slam

#

So I was thinking, MS>OP even if 1 stack or no stacks? Although am still playing it 2 stacks OP then MS

minor gust
#

if you are talking about ST it has never been OP > MS

south merlin
#

AOE?

minor gust
#

?

wary raft
#

but never ms

#

or, at least, you tried to get to two stacks of it before cleave. if cleave was all u had left you still pressed it

#

its like MS in the sense u want cleave on cd regardless of OP stacks

Whats interesting is that Slayer send 8 Bladestorm, and Colossus only 6 Ravager

#

Slayer insane CD reduction

u dont like being shoehorned into the last 35%

😊

#

our damage only doubles

#

as slayer

gaunt owl
#

30% of slayer dmg is passive

#

Much skill expression

latent moss
#

all of it is passive pretty much

silk spade

slayer strike is cool

latent moss

u just send sd on cd

olive nest

Imagine bleeds are 90% of the damage break down

theres no spec thats genuinely difficult in the game

theres just more or less difficult specs but they are all pretty easy

there is 0 skill expression with warrior

smash it

manic stirrup

there definitely is its just very minor and is basiocaly invisible

silk spade
manic stirrup
#

you have ravager ticks on fury and had your reck auto attack timings on arms and making sure you spend the most rage you can effectively in tom

gaunt owl
#

legion you had some min maxing to do with your tactician proc

manic stirrup
#

though with tom and reck not being played arms is pretty deadge

latent moss
#

"most"

#

rerolls i mean

gaunt owl
#

charge weaving was a real skill to master

latent moss
#

it rewarded patience

gaunt owl
#

if done correctly it was a significant gain

latent moss
#

like pressing slam and not having enough rage to MS

#

was a big loss

silk spade
manic stirrup
#

charge weaving to function wasnt too fun

#

especially bc everythings hitbox is different

gaunt owl
#

i did hate charge weaving too

gaunt owl
manic stirrup
#

youre not wrong though it definitely was skill expression

gaunt owl
#

boss hit box are so shit sometimes

manic stirrup
#

bro our mage on volcoross testing was so tilted keks

latent moss

most of the skill expression was making sure u were sending ms on cd

and was like wtf man why arent my spells hitting

SLAYER IS the new CONDEMN !

gaunt owl

Its s3 tier set without tclapping

now give aura buff

i wanna be top dmg

gaunt owl

Slayer is pretty close on both spec

#

Didnt do the % diff but its not much

slow saddle
#

well i dont wanna push a button that makes me stuck

#

better to spin

#
  • slayer has to be better at add cleave no ?
gaunt owl
#

Its better yes

#

Ravager is good dmg that free your hands

#

But Demolish is less channeling than Slayer

slow saddle
#

true but the channel isnt the issue

#

its the not moving

#

or the demolish stopping if prim target dies

#

or moves away

#

if it was a cone u would stomp out while being able to move

#

id love it

So I haven’t played beta, do we have a good idea what the Arms choice is between slayer and colossus yet?

olive nest

Yeah fury

cyan tusk

lol are you memeing

slow saddle
#

fury

gaunt owl
slow saddle

hmm

gaunt owl

For ST it would be top tier dmg instantly

slow saddle

and why shoulndt we be top tier ?

gaunt owl
#

We cant or fury player get jelly

novel stump
#

how is slayer looking for single target? I usually avoid bladestorm because it lacks versatility

thick kelp
#

Looks like its the play

latent moss
#

better than colossus

slow saddle
#

is it worth playing bladestorm in higher keys for the extra aoe?

#

atm i feel like ravager is slaying in aoe as well

thick kelp
#

bro what extra aoe

slow saddle
#

ah

thick kelp
#

you are just wasting globals you could use to press cleave

slow saddle
#

i thought it was as i c ppl playing it

#

i havent tested bladestorm ^_^

thick kelp

well ye u play what u want its prepatch

i play what does the most dmg

I mean you can run whatever you want to at the end of the day, talent swaps are free.
Bladestorm just adds not-much-AoE for some pretty significant single target reduction

I'll take it lol

yeah bs is pretty unplayalbe without slayer

its just better

You shouldn't aim for specific values at all really

im not

i just want to know what our bis gear equals to in values

just sim

woven wasp

why would anyone do that

thick kelp

We arent in wotlk anymore

#

bistlists dont exist

woven wasp

like genuinely what value is there in doing that

daring heron

bis list doesnt exist

#

just sim yourself all the time

strong quarry

You sim the combination of your own gear for the best results as you obtain more and more gear

boreal quartz

@thick kelpthis dogshit is preventing me from doing aspect to hc crests

thick kelp

send a droptimizer here and there to see what item could potentially be upgrade

i could scream

i need to unlock the crest changer

by doing it for each tier

and im stuck on the pissboy tier since i have gear

this was a theoretical question, it has nothing to do with my character

Simming it is the simplest solution here.

boreal quartz

but that requires you do have bis or do gearcompare into copy

and since no one gives a fuck about bis

youll have to find it first

strong quarry

you can

but gearcompare is easier

ah

That's...dubious, to be honest.

As others stated, nobody really cares about that kind of information, so I highly doubt that many people would
Go through the effort of this process.

strong quarry

im pretty sure the people who wrote the icy veins and wowhead guides had these numbers at one point when they were simming the best gear

woven wasp

no?

theyre simming gear

not stats

Pretty sure the important thing there is the output rather than the raw stats.

i mean in dungeons i need to press slam even with battlelord

there is also sks

and you cant use cleave as filler since it barely gives tactican and uses overpower stacks

i just dont enjoy it is all
