and let it be aoe class

#

spec w/e

arctic iris
#

It's kind of wild that Arms gets 50% uptime on SS, which hits one extra enemy for 75% damage, while fury gets 100% uptime on improved whirlwind, which hits four extra enemies for 55% damage

Obviously there's way more to the kits of both, and Imp WW requires more maintenance, but arms AoE kit just feels so stingy

#

We don't even have a baseline way to apply our mastery in an AoE

thorn pelican
#

oh like we need cleave or smth

astral zephyr
#

SS should be soft capped at 8 targets

arctic iris
#

Cleave, warbreaker, or bladestorm

astral zephyr
#

Turn us into a cheese grater

thorn pelican
#

put unhinge ss back in, make it 100% copy damage

#

id be happy

summer elbow
#

So if i want mass aoe dmg i would go fury? How about st on m+

balmy cradle
#

how behind is slayer compared to colossus in mythic+

blissful prawn
#

Guys should bladestorm and sweeping strikes be used together? Does the MS's that are cast from bladestorm cleave with it?

blissful prawn
#

Thank you for the replies!

livid cloak
nova marsh
#

Since bs is required

#

But ye. Honestly at this point cleave should be baseline. Don't several other specs have their main aoe spender in a "required pathing" slot

livid cloak
#

Cleave is easy enough to grab though

#

Early in the tree, only really requires 1 point

remote ledge
#

I'd rather them changing everything than just spot changing here and there

Might aswell start from scratch with better designs

slow saddle
#

Sweeping should work like blade flurry

#

Less targets more dmg

#

Toggle shit

remote ledge
#

Or they could get rid of it

slow saddle
#

Nah man never

#

Its been there since classic

remote ledge
#

And?

slow saddle
#

20 years of sweep

#

It makes us not like others...

#

It should just be outside gcd

remote ledge
#

It's terrible for class balancing

slow saddle
#

Who cares?

#

We want different dmg profiles

#

And types

remote ledge
#

Then play another game

slow saddle
#

Lol

#

U do that

#

Coz atm we got that

#

We got loads of classes with different funnels

icy mulch
#

So seeing our dps profile, exactly how does it differ from say Paladin or mage, or boomie? They just seem to have a catch all profile. Mage able to do both really without lacking. Unless you steal their adds.

thick kelp
#

We just kinda do damage

#

you know

#

to that guy and that guy and that guy and that guy and that guy

wanton sierra
#

SS should not consume gcd

remote ledge
#

They hate havoc type profil damage, but people still want them I guess

#

So they make it trash

wanton sierra
#

i woke today and i saw critcake thoughts about warrior changes for next anivversary patch... i was like "OMG IT CCANT BE TRUE"

#

after a few minutes, i realised that he was talking about the boring changes we got, warbreaker hittin far and dmg nerfed for 5 targets... slayer nerf

#

warbringer, sorry lol

remote ledge
#

Copium : they're waiting for a whole new revamp

#

Next patch don't worry šŸ™‚

wanton sierra
#

we are all waiting i guess xD arms indeed need some love.. idk how they let classes be so distant from each other... at the start of the season, warrior recived some work, nerfs and tunnin... now we are forgotten (really the warbreaker changes is nothing... its dmg is nothing and its range is nothing, these changes would do nothing to us)

remote ledge
#

Idk but if they talk about changes and the community answers "no we don't want it" I'd also let the class rot

wanton sierra
#

what changes they talked about? im not aware

#

oh "if" they talk ok... we are on ifses

#

talents that need some love and work: spiteful serenity (0% of all warrior pick this) fatality, jugg, tom, spear and its nodles

remote ledge
#

That's fixing symptoms

#

Might aswell start again clean

wanton sierra
#

you say as entire class rework from scrath?

livid cloak
#

Just make ss off global and buff ms 20 percent

wanton sierra
#

talent tree rework, maybe switch talents position around, bake some into anothers

livid cloak
#

Easg

#

Easy

wanton sierra
#

colossus ms was 20% now its 15 xD

remote ledge
livid cloak
#

Also make critical thinking baseline or the talent that makes op generate rage in execute baseline

wanton sierra
#

yes finishing blows baseline

#

and make new ones, id love to see fatality completaly removed

#

i know its decent dam, but i hate seein it as last spot from an talent tree

#

feels wack

wanton sierra
remote ledge
#

I'm open to changes but I'm no game developer

I want healthy changes, mostly new designs that they like so they balance it well

#

Talents in time with modern wow

serene hollow
#

Mortal strike has a chance to strike the target again for 30% damage during Colossus smash, synergize with Colossus. That seems so stupidly obvious to me

#

Or always does, rather

#

Give talents that really make mortal strike feel like an engine for colossus

remote ledge
# remote ledge Talents in time with modern wow

Ie, they want target cap, instead of trying to fit spells that were made for no cap and struggling to balancing them, make new ones from scratch that fit their goal of game design

But boomer warrior players whine whenever they change one bit. We're stuck I guess

livid cloak
#

Nobody is whining, but it's weird to just decry "rework" with no ideas or suggestions

#

I like the way arms plays

#

Especially in pure st slayer, it feels fun

#

And aoe colossus , but aoe slayer and st colossus feel tough

thorn pelican
#

i like arms it just feels weird coming from cata and having ss on gcd

thick hamlet
#

SS on gcd is VERY important

#

for reasons

remote ledge
thick hamlet
#

look tihnk about it, arms warriors always sweep the strikes, but it takes a while because 2handed weps are heavy in the lore

thorn pelican
#

sweep the strikes hmmNod

remote ledge
#

Esp when they keep saying since legion that they don't want ss/havoc type damage and they will always undertune it

its just goofy that arms is like kinda supposed to be good at 2 targets and execute

#

and then we're just like.. kinda okay

#

on the fights that reflect that

#

Playing thane in my+, curious, do I cleave at 2 targets? Or is there a target count that I start/stop cleaving?

smoky kayak
#

you press thunder clap same way you always do

reef glade
#

arms doesn’t have thane too

forest dove
#

Oh fuck sorry, I’m trippin ā˜ ļø

#

I’m playing slayer

forest dove
#

Hahaha

#

But yeah, so cleave on two targets too?

reef glade
#

don’t rly know since I haven’t played it much this xpac but ā€œhistoricallyā€ I’d imagine MS still stronger on 2 targets, but you should sort of be able to roughly compare their tooltip dmg values, if ms is over double that of cleave’s (when it would hit 2 targets) it’s prolly better as well as more prio dmg

#

But like id say if you’re in a situation where you want to hit slam you just hit cleave instead as filler on low target counts like that

#

pmuch removing slam from bars not sure if it’s much better than cleave on st

boreal quartz
forest dove
reef glade
#

Just see if slams tooltip is like way higher than cleaves or if it’s sort of similar it’s probably not necessary

forest dove
#

I guess there are no real interactions with slam, so I can just look at pure numbers

#

Yeahhh

reef glade
#

The only problem maybe is if you like double overpower and ms didn’t get reset you’d rather not waste the 2 MP stacks on cleave and send on MS single target

forest dove
#

Ohhhh interesting! Yeah that’s a great point

#

What’s MP? I’ll have to track that

reef glade
#

But I mean in that situation u can also like thunderclap reapply rend or something

#

I think that’s the buff name martial prowess

forest dove
#

Yeahhhh

reef glade
#

It’s just when you hit overpower next mortal strike or cleave does 30% more dmg

forest dove
#

Oh badass! Okay

#

Yeah that makes sense… better spent on MS ST

#

Thank you for that!

reef glade
#

Don’t think necessary to track just sort of internalizing if you hit op u wanna hit ms before cleave, but yea I mean it might also help to just watch like arms streamers in m+

#

Idk if any of the ā€œbig streamersā€ are actually playing arms over fury, can’t imagine many are

forest dove
#

Yeahhh that’s the issue, not much arms content right now

reef glade
#

But if u check rio maybe you can separate by spec and see if any of the top ppl stream

forest dove
#

I’m bouncing between the two personally, just enjoy arms so much more

#

Ahh good call

reef glade
#

Like the die hard arms that I’m aware of I think is like gellyfisk but idk if he streams

forest dove
#

Cooool cool cool

#

Yeah, need critcake to play some arms

reef glade
#

when it’s not worse than fury prolly will chatting

#

think colossus getting some buffs next week so decent chance most of em are gonna ā€œtry outā€ all the new hero talents and specs

#

unless col buffs already happened

forest dove
#

Oh nice! Didn’t realize it was getting buffed

#

I haven’t messed with colossus at all

reef glade
#

Eh nvm just read don’t think col got touched at all, like 2 minor buffs and only one of them is dps wise

#

but whateva wicked

fresh spire
#

Change was mostly around execute usage as a prio and implementing the ravager bug

#

Since arma put it into sims it was sending demolish instantly which was a huge damage loss when youncan get 6+ stacks in the opener now

#

Best aoe sims close to 4.1m but the St side of colossus when taking aoe talents sucks ass

#

Specs so fucked

teal fossil
#

Oh the bug where you can sweep unhinged ms for demolish stacks

#

Cool

fresh spire
#

yeh its on live raidbots now (the bug)

gaunt matrix
#

Do you want to use demo during colossus window or should you focus on getting cleave out

fresh spire
#

if you play sao you always send it at 10 stacks even on pull

#

if you play dreadnaught you send it around 6 stacks

#

usually lines up towards end of your cs window

teal fossil
#

If they fix the bug is it joever

fresh spire
#

Soa sitll works well as OP has low prio

#

Cleave>Ms>Sks>Execute>op for aoe

the extra MS prio just gives you stacks so fast

# thick hamlet fellas i'm dying to air on m+, i need some help defensively

I macro'd defensive stance to both Spell Reflect and Die By The Sword, which helped me a lot. Also learning which big casts you can spell reflect does a lot of work. And of course healing potion & Impending Victory is extra good against big damage over time or as an oh shit button when you get chunked.

I'm farming 10s and I don't really die anymore unless I messed up and stood in fire

sacred zodiac
#

lmao that sounds horrid

#

dont macro dstance to your defensives you will live 99% of content if you just press sr and parry

broken arrow
#

Indeed, the 2-3 seconds of not having battle stance up are truly aweful /s

shell wharf
#

Besides a healer struggling there's nothing you need to D stance below 12s

thick hamlet
#

+11s have been okay if i use everything correctly, but +12 feels like my current threshold when it comes to mechanics

sacred zodiac
#

i mean kinda yeah

#

if you are going to dstance for 3 seconds every 24 seconds then you might aswell go play fury

thick hamlet
#

a lot of unavoidable damage just kills me no matter what i do, and obviously means i end up sitting in D stance for too long

broken arrow
sacred zodiac
#

i mean i also only touch 10s cause i dont care but you do not need dstance for a 10

#

if you NEED dstance in a 10 you are either standing in fire or your healer is physically afk

Well considering all my healers are pugs, there's a good chance they are at any time okayge

Hey guys, just trying to better understand that build that walhe posted a few hours ago. Is the reason we would play soa instead of dreadnought (for m+) because the increased ms prio in aoe means that we are pressing op less, and thus dreadnought aoe on op is less valuable?

shadow ibex
#

DN just isnt good

#

the aoe gain isnt anything impressive. its an aoe gain ofc but SoA helps a spec weak in ST do more

livid cloak
#

bless you šŸ™

fresh spire
#

though colossus is in hell of a state

#

lose way to much ST to get aoe

livid cloak
#

it did feel good going cleave, ms, sks, op priority

#

i am about to hit the st dummy with and it and see critcake

edgy solstice
#

2% on aoe is generally more valuable than 2% on ST

#

but giving op no prio in aoe will obv put SoA stocks up

livid cloak
#

was doing about 950k st no party, no buffs, no lust with this build. it's not terrible

#

im defniitely going to play this tonight

gaunt matrix

livid cloak
#

walhe posted it early, krisp cooked it up

gaunt matrix
#

yeah I switched to it

livid cloak
#

you prio cleave and mortal strike to get really fast demolish resets

gaunt matrix
#

so dont use slam?

livid cloak
#

only if nothing else available, slam rarely sees use in aoe anyway

you usually have other buttons to push

edgy solstice

#

as arms i think we need every bit of aoe we can get imo our st is fine

livid cloak
#

if you play colossus it's the other way around

and as long as you can live bosses, aoe is fine, that' sjust usually not the case, where the bosses become the wall, just depends on your grp imo

edgy solstice
#

the walls are timer and survivability rn

#

not saying you should just completely disregard ST/prio dmg, i wouldn't be playing this spec if i did that. but 2% aoe > 2% ST in almost any key scenario

there is just no way you actually believe

#

you have to be trolling

this is not a bait

What’s the average dps for arms on bosses for M 9-11 I feel like I’m low doing 700-950k on most fights

#

Sometimes 1.2 mil bc cleave ect

halcyon breach
#

But right now at least you can play around with talents to fit whatever you really want, even if there'll be talents which are often just always going to be picked simply because of how good they are, or if the spec genuinely needs it to function

#

Speaking from personal experience where on Silken Court, there are multiple different builds that all work and do different things

#

Utility especially is in a better spot with current talents than the old ones, because of how limited your choice was for either getting double charge, or storm bolt, for example

Didn’t know if it was one of those, slayer arms is prio damage so don’t give up some of your prio damage, things.

nova marsh
#

Well yes

#

But sks dosen't really contribute that much to prio damage

astral yarrow
#

it kind of is, but its one of the points you realistically drop for cleave

nova marsh
#

At least

#

it dosen't feel super impactful for prio anymore

#

Maybe I'm coping cuz I just gave up on it in favor of jugg

calls for a ms revert

steep osprey
#

so true

gaunt owl
#

AMEN BROTHER

#

long have we suffered

#

i cant even

#

being mid tier but you get nerfed anyway

wary dune
edgy solstice
#

you're right

#

nerf the tier set

steep osprey
#

Anyone playing with the new EB build?

lapis geode
#

Is arms better than fury now?

edgy solstice
#

yeah

steep osprey
edgy solstice
#

@ eb

steep osprey
#

not in M+

tender glen
#

So, sword, axe, polearm, or hammer? which is technically best to craft>

edgy solstice
#

fury is better still

edgy solstice
#

whichever mog you like

steep osprey
#

craft the one least expensive or mog

edgy solstice
#

least expensive for me was polearm

#

but check

tender glen
#

gotcha, good to know thanks

edgy solstice
#

but ya eb is ok

#

it's really just praying for cleave resets during mbg window

#

which doesn't often happen in the 4 keys i've done with it

steep osprey
#

prayge

muted acorn
#

may i see some of your stat distribution guys? im from fury and trying to get 40% crit so i can catch up with arms

edgy solstice
#

25 29 18 7 rn

muted acorn
edgy solstice
#

ya

#

crit would be higher ideally but was gearing for slayer at first

muted acorn
#

can 33% crit do m10 keys?

edgy solstice
#

ofc

#

stats dont even matter much at 12

steep osprey
#

anyone else getting fps drops when picking up affix orbs?

gaunt owl
#

this game is a huge fps drops anytime something happens

#

optimized for NASA lvl computer

muted acorn
#

last question, when do you guys use skullsplitter?

thick kelp
#

depends on your talents

final jungle
#

But idk I could be wrong šŸ˜‚

steep osprey
#

so I have all keys at 9 timed except for 2 10

#

and im 2460

#

how much is one 10+ timed up from 9

#

i wanna get 2500

edgy solstice
#

30 points ish

steep osprey
#

so not enough

#

need to do 2 10s

#

healer randomly left in this 10 NW i wwas doing

#

man fuck pugs

wintry talon
#

Roughly how much difference do secondaries make. Say coming from full bis hero fury war to arms vs full bis arms war.

steep osprey
#

not much

#

damn fishy's build is really nifce

#

was testing on dummy

#

gonna test st in M+ build

#

lmao giga bad

#

MS buff pls

#

30% at least

edgy solstice
#

good thing they nerfed it by 30

steep osprey
#

lmao

#

20% it was

#

but it def needs to be buffed by 30%

#

if not more

steep osprey
#

surely it can't be this bad

edgy solstice
#

it's p bad

steep osprey
#

I like the spec in Aoe but St needs god

rocky jackal
#

Where can I find the juggernaut build?

steep osprey
#

On WoWhead

rocky jackal
#

Ok, ty is

#

Ty

balmy kindle
#

despair, colo arms at 618 sims at 815k ish when my 604 ww monk is at 894k critcake

Colo is better on dungeon slice, but srs the boss dmg difference argh

pale lodge
#

maybe a dum question but, raid singel target, ST specc, do i spam execute below 35%? and hows arms compare to fury in +8 keys?

untold pewter
pale lodge
#

ty! i will look in to it

balmy kindle

MS needs big buffs

#

Are we running skullsplitter in slayer pvp build?

gaunt owl
summer elbow
#

How bad i am if i die by mechs cause demo dont let me move.?

fresh spire
#

all about learning fights and timings, dont press if you know you gotta move

#

either that be ready to leap

summer elbow
balmy kindle
# steep osprey Yeah it's so bad

One of the biggest problem is that execute is terrible on colo as well, you just run out of rage.

Our boss dmg is heavily reliant on having EP and lethal blows stacked

steep osprey
#

Yeah, we still need a better rage economy for Colossus

#

Like maybe a talent in the tree that reduces execute rage cost or something

balmy kindle
#

Also ms can definitely use base number buffs as well, right now it legit tickles on non crits

#

My fucking ww does more dmg on tiger palmsadge

fresh spire
#

need to find the override to see just how much MS needs to be buffed baseline to catch with slayer

frigid cipher
#

All the strays are in preparation for the the MS buff

fresh spire
#

real

#

ive been wondering this

#

if they nerf the class enough maybe they will eventually buff it

#

But my fears are we will get aura instead of buffed where we need it

balmy kindle
#

I kept my hopes up but Jesus it's pretty bad copium

#

No changes, confirmed nerfs

#

No compensation for arms

frigid cipher
#

And DK buffed

steep osprey
#

Easy

#

Shaman rework and buff

frigid cipher
#

What a good time to be red

steep osprey
#

I’m maining shaman now

#

Waiting for warrior rework

#

And maybe I’ll play

balmy kindle
#

Alr gearing my ww up, same dmg profile as warrior but better

#

Maybe they will make Colo raid viable one day copium

steep osprey
#

Ele shaman looks very strong

cloud gyro
# livid cloak

battlelord is better, ive been playing this since expac launch

steep osprey
#

New Ascendance forms and new Lava Burst animation

#

Found I enjoy shaman more than dk

steep osprey
#

Don’t bother hoping for when

#

Just play and let shit take its course

#

We were coping they were surely going to fix arms rage gen during execute and they did not

flat willow
#

Any day now

balmy kindle
#

At least make demolish like 2x. Stronger or smth copium

steep osprey
#

Warrior is in a pretty sad state

flat willow
#

Wait blizzard has a message for arms woyers

steep osprey
#

Delete execute

balmy kindle
#

Like right now ww I am doing conduit and jesus the damage sadge

#

Makes demolish look like a tickle move

#

This is on top of ww being a good cleave spec

steep osprey
#

Yeah but you’re comparing a 2m cd to one that can be reduced a lot

#

That’s a shitty comparison lol

flat willow
#

Yeah compare it to reaper's mark instead

#

Casually doing 9/10M every dungeon

balmy kindle
steep osprey
#

9m is rare

flat willow
#

Man dk is awesome

steep osprey
#

Once in a while

#

It’s usually less

flat willow
#

(dont nerf it blizzard)

balmy kindle
#

Arms we alr have to make choices and yet our numbers suck

flat willow
#

Arms is very specific for that

#

I dont think any other class has to completely gut their single target to do aoe

steep osprey
#

We need a rework

#

If everyone stops playing warrior

#

Surely they’ll do something about it

flat willow
#

Well everyone stopped playing arms

#

Didnt stop them from nerfing arms like 4 times

cloud gyro
#

mark my words

steep osprey
#

I will mark them in the bathroom stall

flat willow
#

This build heals single target bosses

cloud gyro
#

any colossus build does that

flat willow
#

Hahaha

balmy kindle
#

Without SKS you will really heal bosses okayge

#

Like outside of ms and demolish Colo arms is a bleed spec sadge

cloud gyro
#

theres kinda nothing u can drop for sks tho

fresh spire
#

You dropped the wrong node if you wanted to pick up the cleave reduction, thunderous is super strong

steep osprey
#

are WoW devs stupid

frigid cipher
#

Yea

tranquil sundial
steep osprey
balmy kindle
#

Battlelord seems good but it's kind of a extra mortal tickle deadge

remote ledge
cloud gyro
#

as they should

tranquil sundial
#

we need buffs

steep osprey
#

Buffs are temporary

tranquil sundial
#

idk about a rework

fresh spire
#

spec has way to many damage amps around one button

tranquil sundial
#

arms more fun rn than it was entire DF & SL imo. Except s1 SL cos Condemn funny

cloud gyro
#

^

balmy kindle
remote ledge
#

I'd rather have them do everything from scratch again, so the class design actually fit their standard and wr can have equal treatment deadge

But boomers here would unabomb blizzard if they get rid of ss deadge

cloud gyro
frigid cipher
#

Entire warrior community collectively sandbagging as venthyr

#

Crazy time

tranquil sundial
#

what they did to cleave is really nice

cloud gyro
#

i think i tried out arms maybe 5-6 times over past 3 years

#

everytime it felt shit to play

#

this time it felt nice

fresh spire
# tranquil sundial arms more fun rn than it was entire DF & SL imo. Except s1 SL cos <:Condemn:7426...

if you removed the fact that slayer is being held up by how powerful unhinged im sure you would have a different opinion about using Bs in st when its bad, forced playstyle around bladestorm would have been shit if unhinged never got changed.

Colossus currently loses almost 300k dps to pick up aoe killing off a huge amount of its single target
going from almost 1.415M in pure bis to barely over 1.1m in aoe build is a joke when compared to every spec of fury which is around the 1.3m area for st while having better or close numbers, AM in fury is about to solidify just how bad arms really is

balmy kindle
cloud gyro
#

for sure, but it resets demolish

#

and it helps rage

balmy kindle
#

Yeap that's why I run it on colo, but still my point stands on the ticklish part sadge

#

Also demo for all the big numbers it's not that good on small packs

cloud gyro
#

yes

tranquil sundial
#

i mean yea

#

we need god

#

still arms was miserable playstyle wise in DF

#

Pressing IP for a bigger ToM was literally dogshit gameplay

cloud gyro
#

unhinged nerf makes sense, but then atleast make it 5 stacks of 2%

#

when ur touching it anyways

#

overwhelmed*

strange perch
#

Has anyone tried to build around "Fatality" perk?

boreal quartz
#

its not good since ms is so bad

remote ledge
#

Many abilities are out of date with blizzard views of the game, and they purposely undertune it + it's difficult to add novelty while staying in their guidelines. Things need to go deadge

boreal quartz
#

and since MS is bad you dont use blord or EB

#

so fatalily suffers

#

no TOM since TOM stinks is also bad for fatality

fresh spire
#

unhinged also too good you dont have the talent points anyway

#

:caught:

cloud gyro
#

unhinged is kinda the only capstone talent that feels like a capstone

boreal quartz
#

EP kinda but

#

without EP MS wouldnt exist in exe

cloud gyro
#

EP should be baseline design wise

balmy kindle
boreal quartz

that sounds ass

Warrior is at the point it needs a major change up when compared to the care and attention other classes get its mildly infuriating.

#

You guys are aware brutal finish in arms hasn't worked for almost 3 months

fresh spire
#

Functionally it's bugged

tranquil sundial
#

what is brutal finish

fresh spire
#

If your bs ends with a mortal strike tick it consumes the buff instantly with 0 damage amp

remote ledge
#

I don't care about numbers I just want class design from 2025

fresh spire
#

The talent that would replace cyclone on St if it worked

#

Were in like 2 months and 20+ days since it was first reported yet 0 fix

Yet they nerf the choice node

Arms - "honorary DoT spec" said Ion.

boreal quartz

remote ledge
#

I like arms for the dot/debuff aspect, I hope they keep it as main mechanism in some way

#

But let's get rid of cleave sweeping strike at least

balmy kindle
boreal quartz
#

sweeping strikes is like one of the coolest things arm has rn

#

keep that in

#

i want old sks, no AM, no juggernaut (maaaaaaaybe AJ)

#

i want MP death NOW

remote ledge
#

Well it doesn't have too much rn, I'd rather say it hits like shit and has no interaction whatsoever, it's just there

remote ledge
#

This is why they can't balance arms, they keep saying it for years

boreal quartz
#

sweep changes ur prio, gives you your 2t identity

remote ledge
#

Same for destro and havoc

#

They hate 2T identity

boreal quartz
#

They killed it in legion and they let it barely alive since then

Give us fury bladestorm while your at it

Look at outlaw rogue evolution since its launch in legion. Then look at what happened to arms since legion.

Yet people want no changes I'm bamboozled

yea playing fury i do realize bladstorm is like half the duration

Guys slayer still good for m+ or i really need to start used to colossus?

just be the thrash killer and let the other guys handle bosses (ironic i know)

I'm having really good experiences pugging 11s though, which is surprising

balmy kindle
remote ledge
#

Guys is there a (crooked) Colo ST fully optimized build?

livid cloak
#

Wowhead

remote ledge
#

It is the latest one? Thanks

Since we got some madmen like fishy cooking fresh builds often

fresh spire
#

Wowhead one is basically the best only adjustment to raw St is better sks usage in execute when low rage to generate rage compared to current sims.

remote ledge
#

I wanna try this one for lower keys, with 45s roar and full prio ST and counting on demo roar and bleed for aoe

#

Maybe taking cleave just for deep wounds on aoe opener

astral talon
#

+2 dawnbreaker 11 XD

astral talon
#

who cares about sims

#

timing the key is what matters

remote ledge
#

Can you link the build again please?

astral talon
#

i dont play exe talents

#

they'd probably do more dps

#

but i enjoy this more xD

livid cloak
#

Arms really do be having 8 diff m plus builds doing 1.5m overall

thick kelp
#

Basically

#

only spec in the game who can do this

#

All our talents are so meaningless we can mostly pick whatever

#

and do our medicore dps

livid cloak
#

Lol

astral talon
#

i mean

thick kelp
#

Not even jokin

livid cloak
#

I know

astral talon
#

tbh two things that'd make arms mad good in m+

livid cloak
#

You're not wrong

astral talon
#

instant 10 stacks of collosal might after using CS

thick kelp
#

The difference between talent nodes in different situations are all within 1-2%

astral talon
#

and this being 10 stacks at the use of sweeping

#

and then every global that sweeps 2nd target reduces cd of sweeping strikes

thick kelp
#

You basically get 10 stacks on pull with ravager

#

You wb rava cleave ms

#

and you are at 10

#

ofc sweep before wb

astral talon
#

ye

#

but if it was 10 from CS

#

you could have easier time on ST

thick kelp
#

well yeah

#

would guarantee that you get your demolish

#

but we cant have nice things

astral talon
#

and collateral rework woul make it so its that dogshit to use

thick kelp
#

Stonks

astral talon
#

cuz all your cds are gone

#

and done

#

and then its like

#

YAY i can do cleave without skarmorak buff, without CS, maybe with avatar

#

bruh

remote ledge
# thick kelp

I liked this in aoe but once you get in 100% ST it you just send it ASAP no matter the stacks right?

thick kelp
#

yeah in st

#

but it should almost always be 10 stacks

#

unless on pull

remote ledge
#

Does anyone know if bloodsurge scales in aoe?

boreal quartz
#

ye its more rage

#

but rage in aoe is useless

remote ledge
#

I have an idea

#

But it's prolly 2 patchs too soon

zealous rampart
#

i wish people DID 1.5m in my keys

#

as a tank i always have one dps competing with me, people hit 1m rarely

astral talon
#

and on bosses i do like 800-900k

#

usually

#

last boss in SV

remote ledge
boreal quartz

try it then

#

blord alone solves rage in aoe

That would be a no cleave build tho

Is it possible to macro together rend and skull splitter? I tried different combinations but no luck. Just to be clear I don’t speak about simultaneous press of rend and skull.

Demolish numba one?

wanton sierra

damn you did like 100M more dam on demolish than me

livid cloak

Just moving dam from execute into demolish

#

I wonder how the Krisp build would feel moving ep into battle lord

#

Doesn't take massacre

#

Idk, I like ep

wanton sierra
#

idk, im thinkin execute talents dont worth... we need massacre and EP, and those yes help on ST, but our main ST button is MS.... and if execute represented more on overall it might be worth, but 4% is nothing

wanton sierra
#

battlelord has more impact on gameplay than massacre and EP

livid cloak
#

More positive impact

#

Massacre just means you're rage starved longer

wanton sierra
#

EP shoulda give like 100% each stack of MS dam

astral talon
#

demolish is always my #1 in keys

or 2nd

livid cloak

Usually cleave then demo

theres gotta be a way to play almost no exec full mortal strike colo build, should feel better for M+ no matter what

Thing about demolish is that you can do big burst

#

It really helps on skarmorak when you break shield before 1st tick of dmg

#

With 4-5 stacks you do one huge hit and shield is gone in like 3s

Skarmorak, ingra maloch, stitchflesh

Iirc 1st tick is after 4s
