Play mage or smth
if one of your pug dps sucks
Just not aug
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
i think aug’s issue is also just
And not feel like shit cuz they rolled the dice wrong
being the only dps really that buffs tanks and healers
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
3.9mil cleave crit on a dummy, I love arms
any run with aug just feels slower
Uptime
Utility usage
Very quick give aways
Anyone know if theres a WA for Sikrans trinket?
Keep track on current weapon/ whats next?
Canj you immediately look up uptime in a dungeon? Is it yet ANOTHER UI element I need?
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..
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
f=solo players = delves. m+ are for people with friends
It’s a bit high yeah
But blizz repeatedly buffed mob damage
Outside of Surgical Heartstopper, are there any other M+ weps that are decent?
really all of them are okay but honestly sim best
Compared to how it feels in a raid environment, I hate how spiky m+ is. Its just spike damage left and right
Yeah that’s how m+ is designed
There’s no rot in m+ so healers are occupied by damage spikes
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
Well objectively speaking healers were overpowered in df
So blizzard nerfed them a lot over df and into tww
I am also a healer player and healing spikes just feel awful, terrible designing honestly, siege of boralus last boss random dispel feels insane
Yeah not saying it’s tuned correctly
I mean, initial damage hitting 60% of someones hp and then instantly ticking another 25% with slam coming in is just a shitfest
For sure
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
Necrotic wake third boss ticking for 1 million in a +6
Because you didn’t one shot the abom
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%
That is the one in the city, it is boring, what about it?
And I always had shield block up, and used atleast demo shout, but the damage felt insane
Otherwise its not much of a hassle
Is wrecking throw worth taking for court?
Nop
But some damage just feels incorrect
Norm right?
show hps 
is dreadnaught bait doing consistent 2.2% overall 😦
DN feels like shit yeah
Ran that cooked jugg colossus build on a 5. It was fun, boss dam sucked
Trash was very good
Strength of Arms doesn't give rage back in execute any more
part of why DN is taken
yea but OP fucks
make it fuck more ig
but the actual rage comes from having CT i meant
otherwise colossus starves
never forget never forgive
Thinking of playing arms cause just wanna hit buttons and fight stuff… how are we in dungeons.. never really played
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
played enough slayer in raid
gotta mix it up
and by having fun i mean i wish i could kick during demo
lol I’m just doing heroics to get used to the flow of the spec… was crushing tho.. it has a neat playstyle
these talents are beans
bc jugg sucks in m+
better st than dn and dn does piss damage
i think its worth
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
Atleast they gave it some agency in execute
What's DN?
deez nuts

Saw the oppurtunity had to set it up.
Dreadnutz
its actually dreadnaught l0l
LOL ik
hi in execute phase when we replace slam for execute, do we just disregard marked for exe stacks? (single target slayer)
yea i know the rotation i was just asking about the stacks
your frequently executing so not much to think about
i cannot believe, this happen to me AGAIN dude
welcome to arms we love texture
I know slayer is better but how far behind is collosus?
Any colossus enjoyers here? Are you just suing 1 of the two talent builds on wowhead or changing anything+
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.
archimtiros posted this few days ago
The Marcelian dude always dogs on arms but I still think arms is fun he’s a fucking hater
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?
in single target it'll be mostly Mortal Strike and Execute yeah
do you even cast MS in execute phase wtf
barely
to refresh rend and dw if u dont have 4p
if u have 4p then with 2x EP and 2x 4P
end-gear sims should have MS a bit higher (about equal to Bladestorm)
Why is warbreaker not recommended in keys?
- 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
ty
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?
OP procs over MS I think
BS on cd basically unless you know you’ll get better use withing maybe 15 sec
ok that was alot close than I thought I'd be nice
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
4pc difference this makes sense 
Yee
just simmed my shit if i had 4pc and it looks very similar damage profile 
Though honestly look at top logs* for that single target dash boss on mythic folks are just sending MS more and still top performing
Guys how do you config your topgeard on Raidbot ? Patchwork or Donjon Slice IS viable ? Can't find info
yeah i'm looking at chrono logs on top war and it seems to me that they just cast MS on CD
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
personnaly I use only patchwork and up to 5 target for multi sim
wassup WARRIORS
don’t need 2 stacks
i like colossus
colo feels good when tank pulls big but i hate not pumping on bosses
I had a 6.1mil Demolish on a boss in M+ earlier, but I went back to Slayer, just feels more smooth I guess, idk
Demo can get you killed too because it locks you in place, good to have a macro to cancel
drop bonegridner for massacre and switch dreadnaught for strength of arms
easy way to gain some boss damage for a small aoe loss
ya i tried
st still isn’t great though
talenting into massacre on colossus so you can suffer colossus exe phase sooner
yeah slayer swims in rage and bladestorm pumps st still
What’s everyone’s end of dungeon overalls lookin like? Think mine is about 1 mill but I’ve barely done many so far
on the higher ones for sure
i pug all my keys
i just did a couple with a madman vdh
Hell ya
True. Failed a +4 Mists and Boralus due to poop tank, got a good vengeance DH afterwards and we were zoomin through 5-6s
Yeah, big heals too
Yea I depleted a 5 batol because the tank was clueless
Tank can fail upwards 
is there a haste cap i should be aiming for?
cool beans
100%
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)
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
oooooo
thats awful
just dont mess up
like that costs you a TON of gcds per fight
even if you mash?
you will always be using your spell after the gcd
wait actually i removed AIO so idk if its even set anymore it might be blizzlike
itll cost you a idk 0.1/2/3 secs
every now and then
and just 3 whiffs is a full GCD
so 400 is fine?
you cant see it on melee as much but on ranged you create a TON of gaps
400 is good yea
ok cool
f
Does cleave and tclap with rend add stacks to sweeping strikes buff for cleave?
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
Do unhinged ms count even tho they dont sweep
how will they count if they don't sweep
cleave does
tc doesnt
xd
read fervor
and then cleave
Good to have an answer thats factual
the description says single target spells cast during so i think if you stormbolt too during bs it could count as it
with fervor, sure, that wasn't the question
that still wasn't the question
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"
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)
next time, don't act like children and actually ask what you want the answer to
i guess in your mind overpower has only 1 charge since you need to take a talent to make it 2 lol
Only if cleave hits two or more thanks to fervor. The slam from that cleaves
bbbut he didnt ask that
Did you guys craft a weapon?
Damn right
Playing both Arms and Fury so Weapon is the way
The #dps-faq has guidelines for this if you need advice
Obviously fury is better in keys rn, but what dungeons would you guys say are best for arms?
none
arms more fun
big cleave makes dopamine go brrrrrrrr
Made with my homie Geuce: https://www.twitch.tv/biggeuce/
can I PM you some questions?
Honestly ask here, you'll have better odds at getting the best answers
I'm a bit lost with the crafting system, so I can craft a 619 this week and then later upgrade it to 636? and it's best to go no embellishment on weapon right?
first statement correct, but if you decide to craft weapon you must use embelishment
and you pickup the incombat versa embellishment I guess?
ascendance symbol
Alright, this should be enough for me to research everything, thanks
hello guys, did we get a weak aura for the trinket transmittor ?
something saying, jump, grab, or stay ?
idk man
holy moly
https://wago.io/DfJAg1DxQ this one is nice
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
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
I was using a version of #arms message no dread cuz like 2.2% overall
WB avatar and demolish do be activating the monke brain tho
Excuse the noob question but trying to figure out procs, does marked for exe show as the execute avatar or a diff one
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
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.
i see thank you
So what's your M+ builds? Pure Multitarget or some hybrid build?
i don't understand how it make warbreaker weaker
you hit everyone with warbreaker then you avataar+Bs, how ccan it be weaker than the other one ?
Any of you guys tested arma collusions on m+?
Hey guys after the buff to colossus is it much weaker than slayer in m+?
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
dunno about u guys i am having a blast in m+ with colossus and heavy crit gear
I was focusing fury, so I have lots of mastery, maybe that is
What’s your average overall dmg?
I feel like the BS nerf on arms hurt slayer quite a bit
10% is a pretty strong nerf
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
The thing I dont like is that everything revolves around demolish
Like it becomes most of your damage
Iirc warbreaker isnt up as long? So next warbreaker you have no bladestorm and avatar, losing damage, after that you might have to hold your cooldowns a bit to line them up, losing damage. All that for a relatively minor increase.. kinda meh.
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.
I’ll try that next run
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
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
Do roar and rav before sweeping so you dont waste uptime
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
Cool thanks!
ok thanks i understand the point now ^^
I mean its 2 globals you can use on something that buffs collareral, I'd think thats worth more than using rav and roar in avatar?
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...
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 🙂
Interesting, alright 😄
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
Arms is a little clunky and button bloated or it’s just me
Does Demolish work with SS?
thats the cursed gameplay
you aiming for MS when its giga buffed by tier set and 2 EP only
the first 2 hit do
noob question, does it matter how much duration on rend I have before casting skullsplitter?
what can be macrod together nicely?
i dont have any macro to combine ability
i have one for Tclap or Rend
and one for Avatar with my Transmitter
coo
pretty sure the same one are on the wowhead guide
You'll always cast rend omce to reapply once at least so not really
In sks
That's what a pidgeon would say
Can i just replace rend with TC. You know, eliminate a button since both leave the dot but tc is aoe

Hey all, new here. I'm having trouble and thought maybe you all could help. I'm struggling to rage-dump and it seems like I'm j ust constantly capping. I'm not using Battlelord or Storm of Swords, not currently specced for Ignore Pain, but I feel like I still generate too much rage. Any advice?
Gotcha, alright then no worries. Every guide or group I ask is just "DONT RAGE CAP" and I'm sitting here just
I had these together but realized that I wasted avatar looking for the orb/soak
imagine having issues on 4 buttons rotation
arms is too much
Tried colossus for fun in a key and it felt so clunky. I hope blizzard does something to the spec this expansion so it’s an option
Funny I did the same with a hybrid build just an hour ago and it felt so much better than Slayer
Without skull I sim like 30k less. So from 1.07mil to 1.04mil
I personally hate it so I don’t use it
thats i fine i guess lol
My hybrid Colossus build (without Skullsplitter) sims higher in ST than my Slayer build
ask the doctor
He is not answering his phone 😦
what has opportunist done?
Your builds aren’t even similar. The slayer build is your ST raid build. The colossus build has cleave. Of course it’ll sim higher in dungeon slice where there are adds
i managed to fix my weakauras to solve the rotation for me now i press glowing buttons again
yippie !!!
Yeah I was stupid :/
If you're running MBG, does cleave overtake slam in single target during mbg, as long as you aren't eating MP stacks?
Yes
Yes. Cleave: 215k Slam: 182k
Question, since the Colossus build takes the talent for avatar to give you 8 secs of SS I'm obviously guessing that's enough for the opener even if SS also has a very high priority, unless people are playing without that talent too
death to arms

because you'd want to hold warbreaker for bladestorm so blunt instruments gives you more uses because you send colossus smash on cd always+more boss/priority target dmg
hello guys, I plan to only play arms in progress, is it better for me to craft 636 nerubian embelish weapon or double crit embellishments + 639 weapon from first boss?
This trinket is annoying
You should learn how to play without weakauras, for they are a crutch!!!!
you are my crutch!
wtf?
who is who
We need to get this exe rotation fix I hate this weak aura stacking 🤢
One MS buff away from fix
It is. But you get used to it
I never thought arms would be this fun just been crushing
Which arms build is most fun to play. I’m just doing m0 and delve stuff. Playstyle wise
fun is subjective to the player, give both a shot and see which vibes with you more
Give me a visual Hrothy
Which one is true arms
both are true arms 
- one does big hits
- one does frequent smaller hits
Nice. Tx
@dire hinge are you proud of me
tbh princess has been a nightmare to prog in pugs, glad i finally got it. thought the 99 heal was a nice cherry on top
i almost wiped our group b/c i was bladestorming during dashes and one was on me - couldn't get out. TIL i need a cancelaura macro
anyone tried colossus with wb and spear for big aoe shenanigans?
We can finally have one again it feels nice
we dont take cleave v court do we
i think you could
if ur tryna pad
depends on comp in mythic ig
cuz on hc adds melt in bs/roar
is it worth to have an amberr gem (stamina + small haste/crit) over a regular one
to get the bonus .15% crit
Hello
Which embellish is the best for Arms, and wich stats on crafted weapon shall i get ?
took cleave for our kill, i don't think you need it honestly
I did take imp SS though
no you shouldnt
" colossu is dead'"
is that colossus @inland quest
show boss dps
My guy is flexing a details screenshot 
collosus has some nice aoe but once you get to a ST boss its over
There is so many things to consider
did a siege 9 as collossus and once we got t the 2nd boss i regretted everything
I played colossus in a few 9s as well
The aoe is good
But the single target is fucking ass
yeah
While it is "free" damage the crit blasphemite gem without stam gem is .6 % crit damage. @50% crit chance on a 1.5m dps sim (without the arms crit dam talent) is 6k dps increase. You could have that or 8% movement speed.
should Arms have weapon as nr. 1 priority craft?
is the runed harbinger crest cap increased weekly?
Yap, along side all other crest caps.
guess ill wait til wednesday to upgrade my weapon to max 
a retri with 995k? ufff
bro was having a hard time pressing divine storm
must've been a rat paladin
Are we just abosolute shit this season in keys? Like I dont want to play anymore. Playing with guildies ret pally, MM hunter and aff lock the difference it stupid.
No arms is good rn
MM is pretty gross, I think they're flying under the radar
I never considered myself a slouch but the ret pally is alsmot double my dps at the same item level.
Play colossus and you can somewhat close the gap
yeah Ive only been plahing slayer as I thought it was supposed to be the better spec
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?
send it to reset rend at like ~2 seconds of rend left
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
is there any reason we abandoned test of might? been trying it out just for the memes and you can really get some insane strength buffs
iftk is just simply better
it is for sure, just seems crazy a 30->70% main stat buff cant beat 10-20% haste
just dont spend that much rage before execute at all
true, im gonna do more feelycrafting on the bridge boss since you can execute that guy forever, hopefully i can get the main stat trink this week
and yea m+ is horrible
The play style feels like dog
feels like way too much effort compared to fotm but at least i wont get carpal tunnel
yeah
as colossus its very fun
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
go play colossus if u wanna use ravager
cry more
what are the common rotation mistakes arms warriors make?
first key as arms with jugg build thoughts 
8 nw, feels weird to sweeping a cs but then bs and just waste like half of sweeping
do you just not two target cs and fuq it
haste and critcal strike
look on iceyveins for bis gear and you can look at bis between raid and mythic plus and overall
how much ilvll do u have?
sweeping the cs still feels worth imo
Imagine arms with baseline passive sweep
I will say... Being useful for an affix for once feels good
It feels great tbh
I tried it on beta and I did some on live it feels way too clunky, theres not really one instance I can think of where i'd want it over slayer
it just feels awkward to use demolish
I mean I could give it a try again I have some gear now maybe i'll change my mind
I just wish demo was replaced by like something you use to giga juice an MS
Make MS change into demolish evrey like 500 rage spent
how does arms feel in keys btw people
I like it
feels good
Feels great honestly. Bladestorm is massive
BS feeling like an actual CD makes me happyuu
Yeah the nerf to unhinged sucks. Wish blizzard just left it alone so we could sweep the MS
yall be doing delves as Arms or do you swap to Fury?
refer to wowhead
tbh not a bad idea
but then demolish would be affected by MS modifiers
and i really dont want that to happen lol
make it affected by sharpened blades

you can send valor stones to warband right?
3 stacks of shatter on Skar is basically a wipe right?
Wrong
taht def not dumb af
No it's not, now shut up and go farm your weekly 100 wax

swap specs or just get a group and say fuck it we ball
Blizzard trolling me on my alt
show how
is it trash?
It's ok
It's like a 5% dmg increase from the candle at 584 on my dk
yuge
Now why does blizzard not give me this on the warrior 
I’m also interested in getting an answer to this
not enough MS, not keeping rend up to like 99% uptime
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?
Mistakes I see a lot in log review
Neither hero spec changes the exe rotation
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
that's what the sim is showing, but on wowhead rota prio it shows, 2x ep takes prio over exe (outside of ravager):
Guessing this might be outdated then?
Potentionally (since colossus isn't favored atm) ...it is...really weird that it has both
Could ask archi for a clarifcation
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?
Bloodletting refreshes rend when the target has less than 35% hp. Before that you’re manually applying it every time
yep missing something, thanks mate
Is it just me that's loving demolish in M+? `feels great sending max dmg demolishes and buffed up cleave to the heaven
I would enjoy playing colossus way more if the pug tanks didn't move as much 😂
heh true, but it comes a bit late in the rotation how i do it
so the packs are mostly settled
do higher keys
Someone tried a Colossus Juggernaut Build to compensate the ST loss ?
I love playing Jugg
Anyone running the queen's mandate trinket in M+?
Are you guys just sending it or using it as an execute?
hey guys, just a quick question does stacks from overpower and executioner's precision stack ?
ye
is this yes to my question ?
yes
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.
i did and it definetly works better than regular colossus, done some 7-8 keys with that
have you done the raid as colo?
doing my first raid as arms atm (just a normal, testing slayer)
you can get away with playing colossus in M+ but I wouldnt recommend it for raiding
boss dmg just aint there
fellas how do i sim the egg trinket
whether it's best to have the primary stat stacks, or the secondary stacks
huh?
Colarms goat stonevault

I wouldnt know I havent touched colo in a key yet
tho ive been warming up to it on some dummies its actually pretty satisfying in aoe
I think the actual fight is okay
Maybe reduce passive dam by like
5-8%
Just
Add a fucking grace period
Why do we take EP if we dont' use MS except to refresh rend in execute? I know this changes when we have 4p and we use it with 2x EP 2x OP
To enrage
Yah the overlap is fine if you can communicate CDs
Wouldn't battlelord be better throughout the entire fight?
Hence .
Vents -5% and cube explode -5%
Significant
revert the MS nerf when
but EP is borderline useless outside of 4 set?
Buff OP buff when
EP has pretty good value outside of execute
For the SD procs?
correct
idk i might be coping but colossus feels like its better in m+ but just harder and more clunky to play
done a bunch of keys with both specs, overall damage about the same for colo and slayer, but tankiness is noticably better
but wowhead colo build is garbo you definetly dont go full aoe, need execute shit for sure otherwise tank damage on bosses
idk personally havent played much of it myself but gellyfisk has been blasting some colossus
they all have the same problem
MS dmg baseline
just sux

It's already basically dead men..
let it die so maybe one day it can be reborn into something great
gellyfisk does colo in 10-11 and he's the highest rio arms
then i love him
Does Hekili know that i have 4 Set?
never used Hekili but I would assume so
hekili knows what we tell him to knows
no i dont
hello guys, I plan to only play arms in progress, is it better for me to craft 636 nerubian embelish weapon or double crit/vers embellishments + 639 weapon from first boss?
having difficulty keeping up with rend, you guys use weakauras to track duration?
mark
Yup. Also added a sound effect whenever it hits the 3 second mark so I remember to refresh it.
I just set rend on my bars to now show if applied. At 4 sec it shows back up and mews, to remind me to refresh. At 0 it gives a sad mew to indicate it fell off.
Roger that🫡
Big kitty move🤣
best m+ build as arms?
does anyone know the bug
where u spec into overpower cleave but u dont see the shockwaves anymore?
im not getting dreadnaught to proc
Hello fellow sweatlords. In Execute phase, if i dont have 4-set, do i just never press Mortal strike? Just to maintain deep wounds?
just to maintain rend and deep wounds yes
yes
are you talented into it
most warriors streaming kyveza in raid are playing arms
Wvalhe is mainly an arms player
arms likes most stats, so you are most likely good unless you have 0 crit or haste
I've simmed Top Gear arms / fury with mainly haste mastery gear, and even though i have several crit /haste pieces to slot in top hear didnt change much other than ring enchants. Haste mastery works well for both speccs
O wow, a colosus on the top
Colossus is much better in keys than it is in raid
You just need the rest of your group to bring ST
well colossus is 5% larger
fellas why on earth am i lower health than every other class/spec i've seen with my same ilvl
is it an arms thing, or am i missing something like an enchant
What do you think the devs could do to improve Colosus st a bit?
Crit haste or Haste mastery ?
more mortal strike multipliers on collosus tree 
Which One is better ?
item by item basis just sim ye
Colossus so much cooler than slayer
Where do you see these stats btw
murlok io
According to the rating difference it’s not.
It’s only 2.81% larger
silence
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
Other classes take the stam leg enchant, and I think they naturally get some stamina talents
Artificially inflate your hp pool with ignore pain though 😮
i've been using fueled by violence instead in m+, maybe i should go ignore pain instead
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 %
thanks amigo, i appreciate the answer
question for ST , i am seeing in the logs that in execute we only press MS to refresh rend is that it ?
Unless 4p i think ye
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
Cool
😮 is there a WA tracker that doesn't cost a subscription
what
iirc revvez WA pack required his twitch sub, wasn't it?
is there a reason to ever TC instead of rend on ST
rage cost for CDR
they're both 20rage now
oh, then no
correct
So my question was, is thee a WA pack that would track the 2x2 buffs that don't require a sub cost x)
wdym with 2x2 buffs
2 lethal blows with 2 EP
2EP 2 LB
Thats what he meant i think
yea
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
I mean my question was just if there was a public one 😄
no shot lux or whoever makes public wa packages dont have something you can nab and alter
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
if you're somehow forced outside of melee range and need to refresh rend you could I guess, but realistically no
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
Where you'll be hitting TC anyways
until lethal blows is fucking delayed like opportunist
does this matter?
you have to press the tac reset op anyways before you MS
u need a tact proc
u dont have to spend it
What is the general consensus for arms war going from df to tww? Overall positive changes? Fun hero talent?
yes but you have to proc tac to gain lb
and then you have a tac procced op
Gotcha
which you probably wanna press before MS
yeah but it happens pretty often where u just continue pressing exe
and u get 2x lb and 2x ep
so u ms
without pressing op
idk imma be real with you i dont think the WA needs to be written so it glows instantly as soon as tac procs instead of when lethal blows procs
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
idk why atrocity ui doesnt track lethal blows
fuck lethal blows
cursed ass exe rota
is it thou
i mean ppl complained you didnt use ms in execute
now you use it more ppl conplain
what can you dk
do
Literally noone will ever be happy with exe rotation
saying you use it now kinda misleading
I mean you do?
since it's stacking buffs to make it worth the dpe only
It's just not the main star
Like idk if you just look at it as "well ackshully you use it" 🤓
So you'd rather we go back to DF where the exe rotation revolves around buffing MS?
Yea technically correct but kinda losing the spirit of the discourse in that MS needs 4 buffs to be good
See
yawn
Maybe if they didn't nerf MS for no reason it'd help
I think there's some middle ground probably
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
I think it should be worth pressing without LB
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
GAMBA
exe fucked
in sl
u didnt press it a lot but
when u did
it fucked
i meant like LB counter so i know when i have 2 LB without having to count how many times i saw the tactician visual
i count it in my head anyway but it helps
ideally ur rota (with luck) in exe would be
exe exe exe ms
u get 2 tact procs = 2 lb
u send ms on cd
but obv u fill with sks/op
cause its not ideal u might roll sd when u dont need it etc
ngl idk why phil hates opportunist so much
i like how it makes us stay healthy with rage
where with decent crit u are almost always 60+ rage
@boreal quartz why do u hate opportunist
imagine no opportunist exe rota
exe until u have 0 rage oh u got some rage
exe
On fury
#2 on heroic bloodhound, arms keepin up
time to switch to arms with the fury nerfs?
Are we able to spell reflect the webs on ulgrax?
no
Fury better
Arms is on fumes
arms for ST fights
kyveza and sikran
If u need pad, just log an alt
Anybody remember how long the death timer is on the last boss in NW when you counter the teleport?
45 seconds ?
uh countering teleport isn't as good nowadays
unless you kill b4 it drops
you get 15sec or whatever death penalty
the buff is now 100% crit chance for 40 seconds when you return as well
you can crank some serious dam
thats pretty big
Arms is goin great for me
how is the mythic + on arms ?
Big
Pretty decent. I swap out Skullcrusher for Exhilirating Blows and the cleave procs are pretty big somtimes
fury slightly better but still
Colossus is fun but slayer just feels better
slayer too much qol
Wanna try arms but right now I’m still topping every key pretty much on overall and boss damage up to +10 as fury
I beat fury on bosses when I do double war keys, but fury burst aoe still cracked
well seems like the correct time to learn arms
Prob should be but with both tyran and fortified trash and bosses kinda matters
I find Arms more fun. For me, more fun > slightly better aoe
I don’t know if it’s slight but I haven’t played arms in keys yet to know
Consistant aoe feels better, but odyn's fury always carries
Also it’s def not as tanky
Ive had 3mil Cleave crits and im just spammin it
Arms aoe isn't bad at all
5.8mil Demolisher crit in a city of threads key when I was trying it out
alll this arms talk makes me wanna learn to play arms aswell
wish colossus st was at least decent
well u are in the arms chat
we are gamers of arms
Tried colossus again in a 9 SB and it felt terrible.
best talents for m+?
Avg col exp m8🥲
Popping BS as slayer slaps so hard
Should my cleave dmg be way higher? 😒
Do we need to keep rend and thunderclap seperate or can we just use thunderclap to free up a keybind?
It's a p minor loss irrc to use TC instead
i keep rend on charge keybind and just use that when ST raid bosses
in dungeons I usualyl just tclap
I just use two seperate keybinds cuz I'm a crackhead
and I've just gotten used to it now unfortauntely
ur talents are so scuffed
take the ones from wowhead
concussive blows is useless
imp ss is bad
compared to colat
soa is only ever stronger than dn on st
u shouldnt be playing sks and bloodborne as slayer
drop sks and bb for critical thinking and juggernaut
no?
awsome tyvm!
Are you running normal SD?
it makes execute 10x better
Because wowhead's also doesn't
both feelwise and dpsise
It drops now you just wasted a talent point
Like
In that case, what's the point
also questiopn how
Dropping both drops u below the point gate
the point gate needed to get CT and jugg
and jugg isn't accessible from ViV
You'd also need Massa or Sos to get to CT in the first place? Are you dropping Blades too?
has by far the best st
and loses little
in aoe
and u dont have to play around jugg at all
Idk I just...am alright with sks
no
It's really not
its only worse at st
It's just not as ridiciously busted as it was in DF
DF dreadnaught was fucking stupid
I will try it
I mean it's not like arms has rage issues in AoE anyways
And CT will make exe feel a little better
well I'll try it if I can ever get a fucking group
Colossus Arms is really good for last boss of the siege dungeon because I can root myself with Demolish when slam is casted so I don't fly into swirlies

100 more io until 2k!
GAMING
Colossus :)
i'm 900 off 😦
1750 :p
Demolish is like spell reflect, it can have some niche uses but very useful utility when those uses come into play
I don't play Slayer but don't you run culling in all content?
It makes your bs good in ST
1 buffed ms vs 20% bs dmg

?
