ah fuck i forgot to change away from dungeon slice, rip
do we know if the priority of MS during execute phase changed at all?
in someway i was hoping the execute "nerf" to 7% was real for arms so the rotation would improve
So, are arms warriors happy with their buffs ? XD
We were always happy
Should we still be using slayer or go to colossus now?
Slayer is low maintenance, which is nice.
Otherwise, I like to just sim different builds to see where my gear runs best. Then disregard that and play colossus, because colossus owns
(except in raids sadly)
really bad time to be simming tho..
1700 queue
Rasha before the EU boys come online and pump on us
I WISH I COULD PLAY ARMS ON RASHANAN
FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
just do it
just swap anyway
sikran neck
rashan neck beats it for me
m or hc
its actually insane
m
im just so starved on gilded crests
I wanna play some arms for ovinax this week but this will be our first rekill so prob not

never getting any trinks from vault stings but yeno
i dont think im allowed to swap
Should we be wearing three crafted items at least due to embellishments?
i'll recraft embel onto boots whenever i get rashondra cloak
only two can have embels
but the rest just craft as you need
im mainly moving embellishment because i could get 17 ilevel on 2 pieces for free
but slight issue is im capped on crests for like 3 weeks
i got 60 left but nothing to spend it on
any new secret tech talents wise since the buffs
brutal finish
dont forget fierce followthrough ๐
bet ty boss
i simmed Aterial blood and it still sims really high for ST as Collo even for AOE good
I had my doubts while smacking training dummies, but Colossus Arms SLAPS
the AoE feels so much more consistent than Fury
feels like a Ret pally, except w/o the utility

your small cd sets feels very strong as colossus

Hi guys ... just got up .. hows it feeling today ?
people done much tersting ?
testing
โ

Garms has returned
Gspair is no more
Now for qol let us more while using demo just like palas
Thane feels really good until you look at the meters 
What missive to get for my arms warrior 2x craftable pvp ring
Crit haste with mastery enchance
Ok, it's 10% buff for arms and 7% for fury, right?
On execute yes
That bad so lower dps?
bros how fast can i farm valor
Valor???
valorstone
aite whats the builds for 10+
Do LFR and normal reclears
thanks broski
valorstones
The event mby? From kofferkeys
come back to us man, wotlk was 99 years ago
Well call em stones๐
vault being shit for weeks now i hope someone else has the same experience because wtf is my gearing at this point
how it be
wait a week to get 6 tokens
Fact

U already have all myth track tho don't ya
bros somebody explain this to me
im simming two identical builds with the only diff being exhilirating blow vs ignore pain
how are they simming the exact same
bc eb is cheeks
no....
I also got myth track in all my heroic max parts 
i think EB is not working on sims
Trinket or Haste mastery legs?
https://gyazo.com/54c8b106c2cadff3fa93c65c90e4eee4
EB for single target is dogshit, it's not an issue with sims
only reason you use it for keys is colo cleave spam during mbg window
even then idk if i'm a fan. you go some mbg windows without it proccing once and mbg is already a chopping block talent
less so now tho
Trink, skarmoraks esp is good for keys
i think it might be a dps loss lmao
how can we get a confirmation on this
But if u take EB u kinda need to take mBG tho
though i gotta let people here cook the good good builds
Like it's the best value u can get out o EB
Personally I don't use it on my runs after running it, but I can see why people like it
i was testing for m+
and again, it's simming the same as a 0 dps talent
so either it's a dps loss so the sim doesn't use the procs (??) or it's not working right
And that's a wasted point
Pain absorb is still bugged ?
i donno what more i can say tbh
Like EB doesn't sim well, it's more of a feel good talent imo
if say during 3mins, i get some really bad luck and it only procs a handful of times, it should still be better than a button that has 0 dps increase
what 0 dps are u talking about
he's simming eb vs ip lol
EB simming same dps vs ignore pain on raidbots during a 34min necrotic wake colossus build test
in which case it shouldn't be 0 dps
just sim a patchwerk or dungeon slice
why are u mdt simming
thats hella work for no information
but there's prob an issue with the sim ya
sure 1 min ill sim
eb can not be 0 dps its just not possible
that's what im trying to say
youll have a situation where u will ms into slam and eb can proc so its ms into ms
@manic stirrup @junior belfry @balmy kindle
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/8fTSgnSdieSDUkkzZPDjSo
it's 0.1% less?
ya
p
how can i verify if it's fucked or not, and how can i fix it?
Hard to tell really on this
it really isn't mate
doing the same comparison but EB vs sudden death is a dps increase on sudden death
that's on aoe, for a colossus build
@smoky kayak can we get ur take on this por favor
Like looking at your Sims I can't see anything wrong as well lol 
pretty much yes
i posted sims of it doing as much dps as ignore pain on an MDT dungeon route
it's in the 0.1% range
same for dungeon slice too
i mean it's definitely happening within the sim. Used your original addon input and just put it in a QuickSim for both Patchwerk and DSlices, and we can see instances where MS and Cleave are both cast back to back, which only EB can accomplish ๐ค
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/ipZ3qmf6jCYbBZwGhczvgA
how would u explain it then?
because imo as long as it proccs a handful number of times, it's already for sure better than IP
Ip?
the only thing i can think of is that that 2nd cleave back to back cast is not a dps increase over buffed overpower+dreadnaught that also buffs the next cleave
ignore pain
How are you skipping ip
They force you to take it
Oh i see what you are doing
Sorry Iโm late to the convo
You are using ip as a textless point
ya pretty much
You should rerun this sim with only 2 combinations
It hurts my head looking through all the combinations
i have already, lost the sim tho
been messing with this since yesterday
same result
bro
i didnt get a chance to listen
hey mind telling me how u bring this up?
The images? Theyโre taken from the bottom of QuickSims, where they include a full rotation that one (1) of the iterations performed. Helps to see if the spells are actually being cast or not
ah so it shows like the timeline of what happened during the sim? or just a sample
im considering the distinction between sample vs actual timeline, maybe there's a bug in the actual timeline
or maybe it's as simple as what i said earlier about overpower+dreadnaught buffs being worth it over it
Any colossus raid builds looking good?
already got mandate then?
No
i'd take that ring instantly only because i spent a long time farming it
legs probably smarter choice though
This is so hard lol
I wanna play arms in keys and maybe some bosses
but i mainly play fury
I'll sim it
yea if you mainly play fury i'd just pick legs. that ring is giga for arms but if you only play it on occasion then its not worth to take over legs
i wouldnt gloss over mandate
I am not glossing over it but it's unfortunate with the amount of choices i have
The ring simmed quite nicely for fury for me but I have key chain neck myth track and writhing worm as my other ring. But yeh when you are stacked with mastery it can be ok for fury still
What do you mean by sample vs actual
Sample is 1 out of many
What actual are you talking about
Another way to check if eb works is see if your average ms/cleave casts went up
so what are the m+ talents with coloss that you don't lose a lot of single target?
you're losing a lot no matter what
By selecting colossus you lost 5%
but you can play massa/ep/blord/sks over mbg/eb/bb
if you're just trying to do boss/prio dam, play slayer
and with slyaer is jugg the play?
Legs better, fury dmg is beans with crit haste 
FML 21% fury mastery
Yeah I figured
I forgot to choose cata lol
and simmed
I am an idiot, don't have cata charge
oh well, i'll keep it in my bags, not like i have enough crests lol
I did the same thing, take myth legs, saving crests
Worth spending a vault getting HC transmitter ?
i got champion track
its that or socket
sockets are kinda cheeks so ya
^
i was actually happy getting socks in DF, kinda sad
ye i had 2 slots both, with m+ but both i had
I am happy that sockets are easy to get now
Before it was annoying as F
yeah but a socket on bracers is still shit
One socket = 10-20 ilevel
so whats the arms ST build now?
arms st build didn't change besides BF/FF now
WTF
guys
Nice arms talents @steep osprey
What should I pick?
Haven't touched in a while
not this
and im even using hekili for my rotation
Seems like skill issue somewhere
hahaha
go 2x bb
I mean sims are still same
and fierce followthru on slayer tree
Ring wins
smh
ngl i miss imp ss. i hate running cd but it's too good
But I wanna play arms too
but ring is shit for fury
so it's legs
midddle ground
acshully owned this 9th nw

I can actually
ST sim says BF/FF is worse than the other options for me
not 636 but I can
If your prot pal does 2.3 you should play with gingi
oh shit im sorry
I don't raid mythic on my warrior
Time to raid mythic
I raid on my shaman
go alt raid mythic difficulty
Considering naowh is pulling 900k
If your prot pal pulls 2.3
walhe said go alt raid mythic
np
BF is like +12k for me. FF vs Opp were equal so I just go FF
but stats yeno
and my ui is gunna be nothing but hekili rotation
ya
sim crit flask and see
I have 8 valorstones!!
A whopping 0
Yeah I do
F
Mistake
budget enchants
It doesn't matter
ome
howling runes go hard
fury legs were 9k dps
arms 15k
ring 22k
we go legs for middle ground? 
I'll craft a ring for arms
@thick kelp Time to do all weekly quests
world stuff
you get a lot of valorstones
and now a lot of bronze currency for event
yeah
2 birds one stone
atleast I have a reason now
i cba to do that shit still
what build are we playing for m+ now?
Still simming 6m overall in ST less than my Fury specc on ST, cba
i would like to know too
Personally playing this and swapping between DN and SoA
If i wanted to play Slayer I would go for the juggernaut build
ya depends on dungeons
jugg stocks are kinda up but it doesn't fit for some dungeons or tanks
I'm gonna do a funny and recraft weapon for fury/arms every time i change
Careful now we might get a nerf next week 
i'm 0/5 tn on actually finishing 12s tho
Blizzard tunes way less for m+ than they do for raid
Just wanna enjoy the spec man, sick of getting slapped
Imagine if there were big pulls
I would suck some balls

hey it's been almost a full day, is it time to start dooming again
dead spec, pack it up bois
pack it up where?
seems like the convo has already run its course, but the TLDR:
- EB does work, you can clearly see the resets occurring and being used
- While that does have value, it's not really that much - every action has an opportunity cost, which means you're using that second Mortal Strike/Cleave in place of something else
- A lot of MS/Cleave's value comes from buffs which you don't have active anymore on the second consecutive use
Absolutely unable to tank in this spec
so it IS the fact that overpower+dreadnaught buffs are pulling ahead
appreciate it
obligatory weekly psa: swap eb with combo
I mean it may not be specifically OP/DN, but various sources of damage all contribute
Anyone has good open world/dungeon build for PvE (or can link) ?
Though 0.2% gain with colossus does seem suspiciously low
EB works, but it doesn't trigger that often, nor do you necessarily even want to use it every time it triggers
So whatever gains you're making are likely in place of whatever you would have gotten anyway
On a first glance
its a dungoen sim
so there is boss fights etc,
where eb gets its value is the cleave cleave cleave
moments during mbg
ya
also our profiles don't support Dungeon Route that well; there's some support for dungeon slice but route is more dynamic and harder to build for @thick hamlet
we still need to NERF martial prowess and buff baseline ms / leave for there to be true EB value
but sometimes doesn't even happen. the lottery talent
slice has also rolled around 0.1~0.2%
i mean difference between eb and ip
Also Archi for the LOVE of GOD can u make em rework the avatar ST talent to something that could get use in theory at least
again, I'm not saying that's the reason for this particular scenario, I'm just saying that in general there's not a ton of support for Route (and only marginal for slice atm), so I wouldn't rely too hard on it as a means of drawing comparison
like the sweep one i like, and if we had the talent points it would be taken we just done coz we have to many good good
well while you're here, do u know if the recent tunings changed the priority on MS during exe phase?
but the one with reck is just so bad its super sad
no
PLZ say its exe exe ms
newp
this is something i think most of the community has been looking forward to
its not ๐ญ
6s reck is insulting
shame
there was a little bit of shuffling around, but frankly nothing major
for a CAPSTONE
it was 6 sec every Fucking WB and now its 6 sec every avatar
Shoulda been 30% MS 0% Execute
Yeah, the Execute buff, while impactful for Arms, really undermined the ability for the MS buff to change anything
: (
Ikr, u would think it should have some interaction with our main abilities but noooo
then again, they could have just done +Execute and ignored MS entirely, dropping it down even further so..... ๐
true
MS to only keep up DW
id rather c em remove juggernaut
where have I seen this before
might as well at this point
and add better baseline execute to make SD rly fun
make execute apply dw too
and instead of jugger talent we get clappa from season 3 was it on sd proc as a talent
counterpoint: 6s of Reck every 30-40s was also insane, so it's kind of a hard nail to hit home

like you think about it, in Dragonflight, Warlord's Torment was a better Recklessness than Recklessness
Reck shoulda just been crit dam + chance and not rage
reck every cs is just iftk 2.0 too so it should've changed
woulda fixed alot
just unforch it changed into something bad
just crit dam, no chance 
Could have just actually been reduced effeciveness
+crit dam, -crit chance
i know most don't enjoy the test of might playstyle, but i get the feeling a lot of those changes are a result of trying to keep it from being viable
Would still be nice
like nerfing rage gain on reck etc
it's actually still +100 on abilities (unless they fixed it recently, I haven't bothered to check tbh)
honestly just take all the rage off of it, that's what ruined the ability in the first place
TOM in DF 2 was funny as hell, use IP for dmg boost
didnt hate it that much, reminded me of focus rage
Die tom die
the only thing ip shares with focused rage is ogcd ability
ass
gameplay
tom is garbo
Yeah that's what I'm saying
make it 50% or less
and on CS
Very ass and annoying with ToM
tom was only sorta interesting during corruption
we tested our might and now we are mighty
exactly
and our slowed rage use means less Wbs anyways
so fr give us the crit back
for BIG CLAPPA ! Demos !
holy
25% crit holy macaronies
this tom bigotry is unbecoming of warriors
IP usage was only nice coz in raid, bad players got free defensive power ๐
like me, i felt the survivability nerf, coz now i HAD TO press it for defense, and fuck that
^_^
my rage goes to DMG
what if, it was based on globals ?
defensives effortlessly being baked into rotations are a good thing, IP ToM nerf was dumb. change my mind
so tom is up when CS is not
tom still garbage tho
Yeah it also flatlines our damage
yeah which is dogshit
tbf only coz we had stupid amounts of rage
where you could consistently get around 45% toms
Why does Dance of Death even exist? it looks like pure garbage waste of a talent point
well illusion of choice m8
class tree
Finishing Blow
EB
nah fuck eb
its just current tuning its not that good
Time to farm bronze for t2
If ms did damage we could live in a world of EB + Blord especially on colossus
every time i see eb, i think of combo's glorious animation
What is hte colossus m+ build
and buff ms accordingly
Mortal combo was booring passive talent but good dmg and feedback
Thoughts on this ?
it's good
you basically have 1-3 talent points you can move around wherever
thanks
full set andy
ngl i just MISS dreadnaught being op
are not full set
i know ppl have dreadnaught but i loved it
im in the boat where colo is p much full commit to aoe so yeah
2nd very rare item in vault in a row
idk about blord tho, outside of db
this game is actually giving me a sloppy bj to make me happy with vaults lmao
Isn't Blord shit
no
it's better now but eh
Last week sureki this week cloak did you pay off blizz
its the best value point for St
i still SAY the fact that arms doesnt take avatar capstones is a fucking joke
XD
even better than sks
xD
if u have DN 6 stacks, with SoA 10 stacks
SoA is the play now for sure
soa ?
ah im dumb nwm
but id always take soa for ST dmg
as loss vs gain in aoe seems minor
nah
kinda but 3% overall for a talent is p good
but soa bigger
the few keys i did it's still around 3%
soa isn't making overpower do 3% more overall but ya
can they aura buff us 6% ! plz
and remove two handed specialization
5% sry
that 1 free talent point would rly help
roar and spear memes would be alive
Iโm fine if they even aura by 4%
Because freeing up the node is more dps
Would be good, let us take the stamina node
exactly or avatar buff for aoe
People will just take more damage
imo delete spear
@thick kelp You were right about the raid, you can get myth track legs from 2nd boss
our stam node is pretty shit
or well choice node with roar
I can easily join pugs since i already killed 2nd boss on my main
no point having 2
wowhead is already updated I assume?
Im always right ty
I think it's a ring angle
we will always take armored to the teeth

we still play same talents for ST, right?
yeah
not necessarily
not at st but at armored
slayer swaps what?

cc -> BF and opport -> ff
yes
understandable
so true
DN sucks
SoA>
losing a lot of st for some small aoe
nah son
ok colossus definitely owns
sustained 3m aoe on dummies
new main
being a dummy
i need WAY more crit
23%
when i sim, should i just sim M+ build and c what gems it wants?
i can either put boots in converter and gain 1000 crit
or put helm in converter and gain haste - versa ( haste heavy) vs mastery heavy boe head
any thoughts?
the st feels pretty mid
Just get a mandate 
do you use cleave in st?
If have nothing to press
Slam?
don't use stacks on cleave during st tho
Protip
625 though
i cant get myself to playwithout sudden death
but im guessing it and massacre prob rly aint that good in M+ builds for collosus ?
if you run ep, you can go one or the other
running all 3 is rough
unless slayer jugg ofc
just played colossus for first time ever without knowing what im doing seems cool
very cringe i missed 2 demolishes last boss tho when boss just runs away from you and your channel just stops...
but is there a reason wowhead doesnt take uproar
or is it just not that strong
cuz like 90s roar kinda popped off
Oh you went for torment ?
think so
the colo build on wowhead isn't updated iirc
Can we not drop skullsplitter now as arms? that button kinda feels bad to press haha
No way weโre going ff instead of opportunity now?
hey guys i run this tallents in M+10 and wanna do a dmg improof in my allround dmg. my ST is kinda OK on bosses but my AOE does nothing (peak 2,5m dps in packs)
what are you running in 10+ and does playing Colossus is worth? i have a fear of missing ST dmg
i never realy played Colo cause it felt to clunky (lvl range) is it like spaming it on cd in pack?
demolish does feel shit in situations where you need to move out of an ability
pretty much yeah. you can build cm stacks on 1st pull of the key and then just send
pray your tank doesn't let your stacks fall off
cm is what?
colossal might
oh lol. kinda read overpowerd XD 100% more dmg?
50%
10
and demolish 100%
if ur walking into a pack with no stacks presumably do you wait till u get 10 stacks b4 ripping demolishj
or just send
for earlier cd
minimal diff. robots say 6 stacks with dn, 10 with soa

i always build 10 while tank is gathering
@edgy solstice is it also that we have more surviveability from colo thand from slayer?
cause it reads so nice in hero talents
also the 12% heal every 1min wehn you dropp under 35%
but i would not ask if i wanna play fury XD i hate fury XD

so also my dmg over all gets boostet cause i might die less in higher keys
you take 1 sec longer or knockup?
most people go 1 sec but i love the knockup personally
you get extra colossal might stacks
is the up for warrior released?
like the unhingeds are cleaving but they are not
i ask again
hey em i tried out the new arms colo build and found the buttons to be desynced af
do i save the cds or just send them as they come
and what is so good on knockups?
is sd + massacre worse in ST than Battlelord
wasn't that fixed
and EB
no
knockups dont get DR'd so it's reliable cc 100% of the time
ok so like, from powerful colossus masters, if i have every cd available is there any cd i would rather save for after a demolish, like letting stacks happen with ravager or whatever, or i just pop everything and like sweep the cs/sks into demolish with enough stacks
but just hit demolish like the moment you hit 10 stacks probably yea
so you dont overcap on em too bad
Ye just bang it
ya just send
wowhead builds up to date?
also it's just all sweeping interactions
okay. can you mby send me your Colo build?
sweeping makes thunderclap apply double rends, sweeping gives double cm stacks during unhinged, etc
Send everything, keep warbreaker/demolieh/ss synced in aoe
dno if EB worst
actually they said EB bad no ? but battlelord good st?
so eb into BB or massacre // sd?
EB is lottery
if your tank is giga pulling, i would still go EB
cleave cleave cleave during mbg gives me dopamine spike
but massacre not worth having?
you can take it over EB
im thinkin a bit more of a ST // aoe balance ish
its all the same
Should be able to open on a pack w/ warbreaker and still clip 10stack demolish on the last few seconds of Cs debuff
same dmg ish ?
yeah
im guessing SD not so much
Massacre is really small dps node
sorry what is SS?
Sweeping strikes
so BB ?
also lol 2376 rating, 622 iLvl, declined from a +6
bb or sks
if you're in a lower ish pug where a tank likely isn't pulling big, i would take mbg/eb and put it in ep/massa/sks
its so weird not playing
But I would just stick with the build you have on rn
double rend on 1 mob or do we just hit up to 10 mobs with tc than?
up to 10
okay
but it's niche tbh
bouble rend would be op XD
and we play ravager? when do we use it?
wait, it works like that?
youre joking?
not intentionally i'd imagine
but yes
don't tell em what? pulls up notes
insane
Juiced Philwarrior
aren't you philwar
anyone got a link to a good arms M+ build with the new buffs
my vault was the exact same except sikran neck instead of cloak lol
leech
def not speed
do we know how soon Wowhead will be updated or im i better off just going through logs ?
to do what
A million warrior buffs ...
logs always safer
is wb good again? ppl seem to be running it but it reduces my sim on 5 target count

fuck it I go avoidance
havent done this since week 1
since i got the mount

IM doing it for 8 bronze currency
@edgy solstice can you send me your colo m+ tallents?
im always sus of avoidance bc it doesn't actually work for majority of aoes
that was db tho, take 1 out of bb for ep otherwise
i alr sent avoid, ill swap when i swap gem ig
from crit to speed when i upgrade helmet
dude im 3 tier helms in vault already
havent taken 1


no i havent done the event yet
no need to loot when I farmed mythic boe
ok
Why battle lord?
rage
you don't have to do the new event
it's good now
yes and i still dont have 60

Time to do weekly sweep
I still have al ot more to go through
Ye same
with this
lot of this anni shit looks cool but i cba to do anything but afk in dorn and apply for keys
is anyone else not having their reap the storm not simming in raidbots?
No
its under bs iirc
you have to click keyflame 12 times
we wotlk classic again
LMAO
3.0 arms warr wintergrasps went hard
Anyone knows how to SIM embellishments
prob dont exist
greg has em
add em to topgear
with the + thing
then "craft" the diff items
Tq
are we still slayer m+
ehh
no
but jugg stocks are back up
still wouldn't play it outside of city/grimmy b tho
doesnt this have like abysmal single target
all colo builds have shit st
fair enough lol
even raidbuild xdding
๐ค
no wb is just shit if u wanna do CD into next pack
even with blunt, colo doesn't love haste as much as slayer does
blord helps a lot with maintaining rage now tho
True
make demolish replace CS adn give us separate button WB on 90s cd or longer
so its our BIG cd again
it's a good choice node tbh
no shot its 11% ST loss
for slayer maybe
for slayer ye
are we better than fury now

To keep you farming
500 just for completing or?
That's the point of crests
yeah something like that
takes 3 mins to do
you have to do shit
5 radiant echoes
keep complaining and they'll add a 3rd currency
- you only have the currency
to do them
if you do weeklies
look how conveluted this is
you need to do weeklies for delve keys
i for one think that all myth track upgrades should cost a wow token
Echoes are so unnescessary tbh
