i’d hate playing aug

nova marsh
#

Play mage or smth

trim arrow
#

if one of your pug dps sucks

nova marsh
#

Just not aug

trim arrow
#

nothing you can do

#

to make run faster

#

no matter how good at aug you are

nova marsh
#

Tbh I think Aug should just be redisgned to be the lowest dps but still higher then a tank

#

And nerf their buffs

#

So they can at least compete

trim arrow
#

i think aug’s issue is also just

nova marsh
#

And not feel like shit cuz they rolled the dice wrong

trim arrow
#

being the only dps really that buffs tanks and healers

nova marsh
#

The other issue is it's not obvious what a bad Aug is compared to a good one

#

So it's pretty hard outside of feelsycraft to tell inside a run, espically since live logging died

Anyone know if theres a WA for Sikrans trinket?

#

Am I the only one who feels like M+ damage is way too high / overtuned? A +7 shouldn’t really be much of a headache, yet all I see is oneshots left and right, unreasonable tank damage taken and so on. It feels insane. For me, its one of the worst ever start to a m+ season.

Encountering so many bugs aswell..

nova marsh
#

I'm not feeling that all?

#

Then again I haven't been able to push beyond a 5 because of a shit pug luck and being a crap player

#

Also keep in mind, it's more of a +17, but even then yeah one shots shouldn't exist.

#

Granted I've also been incrediably aggressive with defensives too

gusty nymph
#

f=solo players = delves. m+ are for people with friends

teal fossil
#

But blizz repeatedly buffed mob damage

nova marsh
#

gear is also a factor too

#

But that's obvious.

ionic latch
#

Outside of Surgical Heartstopper, are there any other M+ weps that are decent?

nova marsh
trim skiff
teal fossil
#

Yeah that’s how m+ is designed

#

There’s no rot in m+ so healers are occupied by damage spikes

trim skiff
#

Yeah, but idk, its not really fun, df s3/s4 felt a lot more balanced

#

Atleast up to 10/20 depending on how you look at it, it didn’t feel this spiky

teal fossil
#

Well objectively speaking healers were overpowered in df

#

So blizzard nerfed them a lot over df and into tww

trim skiff
#

I am also a healer player and healing spikes just feel awful, terrible designing honestly, siege of boralus last boss random dispel feels insane

teal fossil
#

Yeah not saying it’s tuned correctly

trim skiff
#

I mean, initial damage hitting 60% of someones hp and then instantly ticking another 25% with slam coming in is just a shitfest

teal fossil
#

For sure

untold trench
#

I feel balance is in a good spot, I am 605 and can both tank and DPS with no issues from that side. My deaths are mechanical or mistake driven

teal fossil
#

Necrotic wake third boss ticking for 1 million in a +6

#

Because you didn’t one shot the abom

trim skiff
#

Dawnbreaker second boss feels terrible tank wise

#

I couldn’t figure the damage pattern out. Sometimes the tankbuster dealt 85% of my hp, sometimes not even 5%

untold trench
#

That is the one in the city, it is boring, what about it?

trim skiff
#

And I always had shield block up, and used atleast demo shout, but the damage felt insane

#

Otherwise its not much of a hassle

dense vector
#

Is wrecking throw worth taking for court?

untold trench
#

Nop

trim skiff
#

But some damage just feels incorrect

untold trench
#

Only one I noticed was as the mentioned NW 3rd boss abos

#

It is soulcrushing

#

actual rage in exe deswind

Ran that cooked jugg colossus build on a 5. It was fun, boss dam sucked

#

Trash was very good

dire hinge
#

part of why DN is taken

make it fuck more ig

Thinking of playing arms cause just wanna hit buttons and fight stuff… how are we in dungeons.. never really played

fastest way to release

Yeah just did one cleave and bladestorm, did work tho 🤷‍♂️

I was just playing with slayer which seemed fun guess I’ll try collosus tomorrow for more defensive perks 🤷‍♂️

im just having fun with colossus in like 7-8s

gotta mix it up

Make unhinged OP instead of MS

dire hinge
#

OP was our #1 damaging ability in keys throughout dragonflight, it is a shadow of what it used to be

#

(combining OP + DN damage, since it's one ability)

#

it cliffed everything else

#

it got gutted for its sins

Aside from grim batol being grim Batol, why does evreyone hate it

gloomy mirage
#

hi in execute phase when we replace slam for execute, do we just disregard marked for exe stacks? (single target slayer)

minor gust
#

because your executing now you dont really need to think about marks yeah

gloomy mirage
#

yea i know the rotation i was just asking about the stacks

minor gust
#

your frequently executing so not much to think about

i cannot believe, this happen to me AGAIN dude

Some Quick Maffs on the Upcoming Tuning
Overall inconsequential buffs and fairly minor nerfs, so the paradigms remain largely unchanged.

  • Arms Slayer single target went down ~0.6%.

  • Fury Slayer went down ~0.6% in the ST build and ~1.5% in the MT build.

  • Arms Slayer multitarget went down ~0.8%.

  • Fury Slayer multitarget went down ~2.2%.

  • Fury Slayer dungeon/mythic+ went down ~3%.

  • Arms Colossus single target went up ~1.5% - still ~8% behind Slayer.

  • Fury Thane single target went up ~2.9% - still ~15% behind Slayer.

Note that raw multitarget doesn't translate into raid effectiveness, but since the cooldown timing wasn't changed, Fury is still going to be very good at sniping adds, just not quite so much of a one-person army anymore.

The Marcelian dude always dogs on arms but I still think arms is fun he’s a fucking hater

desert dove
#

im enjoying it so far just trying to figure out rotations bc I started as fury is the only sticking point im having, should mortal strike be most of my dmg?

#

Why is warbreaker not recommended in keys?

dire hinge
#
  • small AoE gain for large SingleTarget Loss
  • The alternative, "Blunt Instruments", now works with your "In for the Kill" talent so it's a 30% bonus duration to your haste window when you cast Colossus Smash
modern verge

ty

desert dove
#

Generally speaking I havent played warrior v much is it use colossal smash when its off cd, MS on cd, anything that gets procced as it comes up, cleave in packs after over power, slam to fill in and when in groups sweeping strikes on cd?

#

and bladestorm in big groups or bosses?

dense vector
#

OP procs over MS I think

#

BS on cd basically unless you know you’ll get better use withing maybe 15 sec

desert dove
#

ok that was alot close than I thought I'd be nice

rotund wharf
#

Guys I don't understand : do we need to ALWAYS have 2 stacks of Overpower before MS or we just cast MS on CD ?

#

Cuz Wow Analyzer tell me to have 2 stacks of OP and to cast MS as soon as possible so I'm a bit confuse

thorn pelican
dire hinge
#

Yee

thorn pelican
#

just simmed my shit if i had 4pc and it looks very similar damage profile okayge

dire hinge
#

Though honestly look at top logs* for that single target dash boss on mythic folks are just sending MS more and still top performing

errant plaza
#

Guys how do you config your topgeard on Raidbot ? Patchwork or Donjon Slice IS viable ? Can't find info

rotund wharf
#

seems fair to me, if you lose each time a gCD for an overpower stack, at the end you loose some MS in the count

does anyone know how i can make a WA thats tracking a spell cooldown to show the spell but greyed out when its not learned (like default actionbar behavior)
i have a dynamic group but i dont want it to get smaller when i have certain spells unlearned and just gray them out instead
for example here on the left u can see its hiding all the spells i dont have learned
(im trying to get rid of bartender cus it has aids cpu usage for no reason)

boreal quartz
#

ignore spell known or perma active trigger

#

both works

leaden vine
#

oh it was that easy, thanks so much

#

didnt realize there was a setting for that under more options in trigger

#

uhhhh my spell queue is set to 400 is that bad

i heard you should do your ping plus 100

no

the 100+ping shit is pvp

oooooo

leaden vine

i have mine on 0 tbh

idk if thats bad

lmao

boreal quartz

thats awful

boreal quartz

like that costs you a TON of gcds per fight

dense vector
#

even if you mash?

boreal quartz
#

you will always be using your spell after the gcd

leaden vine
#

wait actually i removed AIO so idk if its even set anymore it might be blizzlike

boreal quartz
#

itll cost you a idk 0.1/2/3 secs

#

every now and then

#

and just 3 whiffs is a full GCD

dense vector
#

so 400 is fine?

boreal quartz
#

you cant see it on melee as much but on ranged you create a TON of gaps

#

400 is good yea

dense vector
#

ok cool

leaden vine
#

u cant see it in default settings, huh

#

guess im reinstalling aio

boreal quartz
#

nono

#

use the cvar

leaden vine
#

hm

#

i only play melee so what should it be realistically

astral talon
#

Does cleave and tclap with rend add stacks to sweeping strikes buff for cleave?

fossil rampart
#

cleave isn't a single target ability neither is tclap

#

if you use rend on it's own then it'll give you collateral damage stacks

#

only single target abilities that hit an additional enemy while ss is up will give you collateral damage stacks

#

mortal strike, overpower, rend, skullsplitter etc

dense vector
#

Do unhinged ms count even tho they dont sweep

fossil rampart
#

how will they count if they don't sweep

boreal quartz
#

and just hit dummy

#

should be an improvement

boreal quartz
#

read fervor

#

and then cleave

astral talon
#

Good to have an answer thats factual

fossil rampart
#

cleave itself does not proc cd stacks

dense vector
fossil rampart
#

with fervor, sure, that wasn't the question

boreal quartz
#

hes playing aoe

#

ofc he has it

fossil rampart
#

that still wasn't the question

boreal quartz
#

nitpicking cuz u were wrong

astral talon
#

If you ask about st and ms usage, do you take ep into consideration?

#

Or do you go "akshually he didn't specify he plays ep"

bronze wharf
#

and still your answer would be worse for him. hey! cleave dont proc collateral dmg (not mention that you play talent which makes cleave does proc it like 99% time when you do aoe)

astral talon
#

Anyway, got my answer

fossil rampart
#

next time, don't act like children and actually ask what you want the answer to

boreal quartz
#

incredible

bronze wharf
#

i guess in your mind overpower has only 1 charge since you need to take a talent to make it 2 lol

#

Should I be letting marked for execution stack or just full send

#

I know one thing I gotta get better at is paying attention for those procs but just got into it so getting muscle memory

sacred zodiac
#

in st at least you can kinda just naturally resolve them unless you hit 3x where you wanna just press execute to not waste slayer strike procs

#

outlined in both guides tho maybe check those again

shadow ibex
#

WB avatar and demolish do be activating the monke brain tho

dreamy sleet
#

Excuse the noob question but trying to figure out procs, does marked for exe show as the execute avatar or a diff one

ebon hollow
#

do you guys play warbreaker in keys?

#

i looked for a talent tree for keys and it didnt use warbreaker that confused me

#

it was like this

zenith warren
# ebon hollow do you guys play warbreaker in keys?

per archi's guide: Warbreaker is a deceptively weak choice, due Bladestorm's additional cooldown reduction misaligning the two, while Blunt Instruments allows more frequent use of Cleave - Arms is more of a sustained damage dealer than a burst one now.

weak wave
#

So what's your M+ builds? Pure Multitarget or some hybrid build?

modest bone
#

you hit everyone with warbreaker then you avataar+Bs, how ccan it be weaker than the other one ?

opal kelp
#

Any of you guys tested arma collusions on m+?

ashen rampart
#

Hey guys after the buff to colossus is it much weaker than slayer in m+?

opal kelp
#

I felt that slayer is not bad … I tried lots of fury, great burst, but on higher keys I feel like gets a little behind

arctic axle
#

dunno about u guys i am having a blast in m+ with colossus and heavy crit gear

opal kelp
#

What’s your average overall dmg?

arctic axle
#

last m+7 i did was like 1.1bil?

#

mil

ashen rampart
#

I feel like the BS nerf on arms hurt slayer quite a bit

#

10% is a pretty strong nerf

arctic axle
#

what was interesting was my demolish was more dmg overall than cleave,which usually was 1st by far

#

maybe got lucky,with good packs,but had a blast seeing millions on groups

ashen rampart
#

The thing I dont like is that everything revolves around demolish

#

Like it becomes most of your damage

devout pewter
#

CS you gain a massive amount of single target damage, which is in most situations worth a lot more, and also more damage through Sweeping Strikes in cleave situations.

dreamy sleet
#

New to arms, trying collosus, what’s your rotation without major cooldowns if you don’t mind, just want to understand the flow of it thanks @arctic axle

arctic axle
#

what i generally do is charge>cleave>thunderclap ,so u got all bleeds up,then sweeping + cs > demolish(first 2 hits can cleave)

#

after that as usual,cleave prio,overpower ,ms when nothing else

#

assuming u mean packs

#

with cds, is more or less the same but u ll want to do sweeping>avatar+ravager(at least i do for less buttons)>dragon roar>cs >demolish >spam cleave

#

and its best if u have 10 stacks on demolish rdy for max fun

devout pewter
#

Do roar and rav before sweeping so you dont waste uptime

arctic axle
#

its not a huge difference ,but if u do it a bit early,u might catch collateral dmg buff inside of cs

#

although best case is 2 mobs will have cs on

dreamy sleet
#

Cool thanks!

modest bone
devout pewter
arctic axle
#

as i said its a minor difference,wont make or break the combo,and i am used it from the days when unhinged was allowed to sweeping strikes ms...

arctic axle
#

just did the math,u ll lose 2% on 5 targets and u ll gain 5% on 3 targets and 14% on 2 targets my way

#

so take ur pick 🙂

devout pewter
#

Interesting, alright 😄

arctic axle
#

its about the collateral inside the cs,if manage to get it in,the less targets the better ,obviously 2 is the sweet spot

#

looks like this ,assuming 12 stacks vs 10 stacks+ cs ,[cleave x 4 (12stacks +25%) x targets] vs [cleave x 3.5 (10 stacks)x targets x 1.3 (cs)]

#

numbers are just what i can get with my current haste/gear

For single target execute phase, if you don't have 4pc (ie. Lethal Blows), when do you send Mortal Strikes? With 2 Executioner's Precision + 2 Martial Prowess?

I only have 2p.

#

but I send MS when its available.

after 4p with 2 EP and 2 stacks of the 4p buff

if you dont have 4pc you only MS in exe to refresh your dots

i dont see why you wouldnt like it

#

man i was playin colossus and im havin an blast... i feel i do more consistant dmg as slayer, but the spike potential dam of colossus is so damn nice

#

I still think both need improvement. Like slayer not being able to use ravager is ridiculous.

#

Demolish is cool but the CDR is shit.

#

Overall, both feel under developed.

but but, slayer is all about bladestorming doing a little bit of dam doing so

So I'm looking at the colossus execute rotation on wowhead, and it has exe with 2x ep as pretty high prio. A quick sim in colossus talents though (with 4 piece) shows exe spam with ms just to refresh deep wounds tho -- anyone know which is more up to date?

nova marsh
#

Mistakes I see a lot in log review

nova marsh
#

U just use exe until MS has 1 of two conditions: Pre 4 set is when rend or DW is about to fall off. Post 4 set is with fully maxed out 4 set buff and 2x ep

finite night
#

Guessing this might be outdated then?

nova marsh
#

Potentionally (since colossus isn't favored atm) ...it is...really weird that it has both

#

Could ask archi for a clarifcation

mighty swallow
#

Priority lists for arms tell you to re-apply rend and I see some casts in logs, I assume you would only cast rend once since we take blood letting. Am I missing something?

frigid cipher
#

Bloodletting refreshes rend when the target has less than 35% hp. Before that you’re manually applying it every time

mighty swallow
#

yep missing something, thanks mate

quasi torrent
# sleek remnant Are you guys just sending it or using it as an execute?

The trinket does up to 50% extra dmg (at "0%" enemy hp, scaling linearly to that point)
Any overkill will just eat into your damage, and yes the trinket needs to execute the target, no grace periods.

Theres unfortunately no accurate answer for every situation. But just sending into a big mob to equalize hp can be quite good.

Ovi'nax's Mercurial Egg is a confusing trinket

which buff do we like more? secondaries(haste/crit?) or primary?

Most melee classes value main stat over secondaries, I’m sure trying to min/max “balancing” the egg isn’t very effective

fossil thistle
#

Artificially inflate your hp pool with ignore pain though 😮

thick hamlet
#

i've been using fueled by violence instead in m+, maybe i should go ignore pain instead

fossil thistle

Yes

IP is amazingly strong, especially in higher keys. Lower stuff where you aren’t at risk of being 1 shot, it doesn’t matter as much, but IP can also help with thread uptime %

question for ST , i am seeing in the logs that in execute we only press MS to refresh rend is that it ?

Yes unless you have the 4 piece tier set, then you press it when it fully buffed

If I'm not mistaken 2 procs from the set and 2 from OP

yes

i have revvez WAs

i just saw it glows when its fully buffed

2EP 2 LB

eternal vortex
#

Thats what he meant i think

fossil thistle
#

yea

sacred zodiac
#

write one if you dont want to nab a private one

#

its legit an AND check to figure out if you have 2 stacks of 2 different buffs

fossil thistle
#

I mean my question was just if there was a public one 😄

sacred zodiac
#

no shot lux or whoever makes public wa packages dont have something you can nab and alter

dire hinge
#

it takes a little bit of learning, but you can also take any aura that tracks something like EP and just duplicate it and have it watch for LP as well

#

don't take a masters in programming, it can all be done via the UI

fresh tide
nova marsh
#

I mean even that's highly unrealistic

#

TC is barely bigger then meele range

fresh tide
#

It's unlikely, yeah

#

There are a lot of mobs that do point blank aoes that are melee range sized, but those are pretty much always in dungeons

nova marsh
#

Where you'll be hitting TC anyways

latent moss

you have to press the tac reset op anyways before you MS

#

What is the general consensus for arms war going from df to tww? Overall positive changes? Fun hero talent?

latent moss

not better not worse

sacred zodiac

and then you have a tac procced op

broken kraken
sacred zodiac
#

which you probably wanna press before MS

latent moss
#

and u get 2x lb and 2x ep

#

so u ms

#

without pressing op

sacred zodiac
#

the weakaura doesnt have to solve decisionmaking for you it only has to be there as an indicator

#

and i can count to 2 on tac procs in my headus

#

you could technically write it to read tac procs since MS press instead of reading the amount of lethal blow stacks instead

manic stirrup
#

idk why atrocity ui doesnt track lethal blows

shadow ibex
#

fuck lethal blows

#

but yeah you just use tactician overpower

so its not a big deal

i mean ppl complained you didnt use ms in execute

do

nova marsh
#

Literally noone will ever be happy with exe rotation

shadow ibex
#

saying you use it now kinda misleading

nova marsh
#

I mean you do?

shadow ibex
#

since it's stacking buffs to make it worth the dpe only

nova marsh
#

It's just not the main star

shadow ibex
#

Like idk if you just look at it as "well ackshully you use it" 🤓

nova marsh
#

So you'd rather we go back to DF where the exe rotation revolves around buffing MS?

shadow ibex
#

Yea technically correct but kinda losing the spirit of the discourse in that MS needs 4 buffs to be good

nova marsh
#

See

manic stirrup
#

yawn

nova marsh
#

Maybe if they didn't nerf MS for no reason it'd help

shadow ibex
#

I think there's some middle ground probably

manic stirrup
#

ms in sl was pressed on cd always bc mortal combo and your legendary

#

even without hella buffs

#

its not like it just did insane damage

#

you had to maximize cs procs

shadow ibex
#

I think it should be worth pressing without LB

nova marsh
#

I mean really that rotation is just the same as DF

#

Just you get less value per cast

#

I do think there should be a fine line between just plain execute spam and using MS at least

#

You could also just...give us enduring blow back

hell no

that shit is casino as fuck

u get 2 tact procs = 2 lb

u send ms on cd
