you dont spend it you just do dmg like its 40 rage so no

weak rain
#

I know how it works, I think it would be cool if they made it work with those talents

brittle fiber
#

So far, i feel like they could:

  • move berserker shout and piercing howl, especially since tremor totem and tar trap are in the middle of their respect class trees
  • buff the shit out of wrecking throw and shattering throw in PvE. miss that ability
  • Make initimidating shout baseline
  • Merge Concussive blow into a choice node with honed reflex
  • Reduce bitter immunity cd
#

and id be happy

weak rain
#

bitter immunity is so shit, not even funny, it should be 30 sec cd

#

whats the play for the next raid so far btw? fury or arms ?

quaint otter

Both look dog

its trover for this xpac

Fury had 1 good season

#

now we are dooming

It never did and it was a pain when we picked ToM

#

Speaking of ToM, it's so shit, why don't they buff it?

boreal quartz
#

Fuck tom

brittle fiber
#

because it's shit

boreal quartz
#

Dont want it

#

Design doesnt allow it to be good

naive sage
#

Iftk it’s just too much better

#

Also % strength instead of absolute value 🤢

RIP SOS

gaunt owl
#

and actually STR isnt that great for Arms

boreal quartz
#

Rip reck on CS

weak rain
#

With current rage generation it just doesn't make sense tbh it should be twice as powerful as of now

#

also SD procs fuck it up hard

astral yarrow
#

We complained a lot about DF arms, but look at where we are now bedge

#

like complaining about lab in poe1 and getting trials in poe2

daring heron
#

Arms gets worse every iteration yep

astral yarrow
#

Downhill since legion

#

WoD kinda blew

daring heron
#

WoD was awful

thick kelp
#

Arms got beaten up for the sins of Legion and since then has been a crippled person moving forwards in a wheelchair

daring heron
#

sins of legion is nothing compared to enhance rn

boreal quartz
#

Cripple enhance

daring heron
#

also we got knocked down real quick in tomb keks still ended up good though

thick kelp
#

Massive build today tho on PTR

weak rain
#

Shaman within continues

daring heron
thick kelp
#

It will include a FURY nerf and a MAGE rework

#

Potentially some RET changes too

astral yarrow
#

spriests need another rework honestly

daring heron
#

just adjust the value on their aoe thing again

thick kelp
#

They need +1 shadow crash or smth

astral yarrow
#

yeah need auspicious spirits to go back to 15 or 10%

thick kelp
#

u mean mind link

#

or wtf

astral yarrow
#

fuck

thick kelp

spirits was spooky ghost damage

spooky ghosts look cool

auspicious spirits is what you play sprist for

Honestly the major thing I dislike of poe2. Everything else sorta fine. More just time to bake it in

Meanwhile 2024

#

Can they balance just 1 season where boss damage is like within 2% DPS or something pretty please

quasi torrent
#

theres frankly too many variables

astral yarrow
#

If you mean pure ST i agree, if not, thats impossible

quasi torrent
#

its certainly possible to do this on a "bis gear" situation at precisely 3:45 long fights or w/e

#

but then class X is better here or there

#

works better with the mechanics, loses less from stuff on this fight etc

astral yarrow
#

any sort of fight design will always throw any sort of ST balance out the window

quasi torrent
#

its just not feasible really

viral locust
#

I mean for pure ST kinda feasible, you nerf outliers faster and buff others sooner rather than 2 months into the tier. Ways to do it without affecting aoe too much also. I know there is mechanics and stuff like forcing melee out of range and forcing caster movement stopping casts etc but it's doable

#

Like shaman has been far exceeding in all forms of content even after adjustments. MM was busted for weeks. They are just too slow to react

#

I also get that every spec is never going to be same as one excels say st and one at aoe, but you should have one spec that's similar to other classes i.e arms could be matched st DPS and fury the more bursty aoe specialist

#

Perhaps not feasible to do it perfectly but they could deffo smooth outliers quicker imo

#

Yapping a bit but uncapping would probably make balance easier in regards to ST Vs Aoe also, could balance skills easier uncapped Vs a 5/8 capped class and such

weak rain
#

hunters and shamans are xd tbh, agree on that

fresh spire
#

Even if its just 1% from top 1% in bottom

#

Lemme just roll out an aura once a patch cycle

halcyon breach
#

Arms is used to aura buffing

#

It's how Blizzard fixes Arms

fresh spire
#

Like there is no reason why shaman is that far ahead and can easily be brought in line by a 3/4% aura while giving that to the bottom 6 to bring them up

tacit crystal

I KNOW

soft torrent
#

Wasn't that the whole point behind these talent trees after we lost the 3 choice bar style talents. Was to give more knobs to twist

dim basalt
brittle fiber
astral yarrow
#

that is impossible to balance with the amount of variables

brittle fiber
#

Demon hunter where their entire kit is AoE and are forced to be benched for ST fights gladge

fresh spire
astral yarrow
#

mage and warlock must always have 2/3 specs top 5

fresh spire
#

Think it's fine aff warlock on average is always the worst spec every tier?

astral yarrow
#

cant have all 3 specs top 5

#

that'd be unfair

fresh spire
#

Doesn't mean it should always be last more often than others:(

eager sigil
astral yarrow
#

no, its the coolest spec by far

fresh spire
#

If anything 3x dps specs should be punished for not being able to be flexible to heal or tank yep

astral yarrow
#

the atrocity they did with malefic rapture

fresh spire
astral yarrow
#

that is only funny if you know the classic meme

remote ledge
#

Mage and warlock are NOT the same, mage is always top tier in both m+ and raid all time, every tier. Warlock is sometimes very good in raid and has maybe 1 season every expansion

astral yarrow
#

woe is me, im only in every key one season pr xpac sadge

fresh spire
#

Mage whines the most on forums

#

Moment they aren't number 1 on logs

astral yarrow
#

boomkins will gaslight you into believing SL S2 was ok

fresh spire
#

Wasn't s1 the most fucked boomkin moment

#

When convoke could call down new moons every time and do unbelievable dps

#

Also s2 was likely the kiss curse druid

#

As they had that frenzy shit right. Stop casting dps goes bye bye

shadow ibex
#

We really need to make post asap

astral yarrow
#

yeah but they werent warlocks s1

shadow ibex
#

We need 4pc changed

#

And jugg changed

#

Jugg priority

astral yarrow
#

for s2 you just dont get mechanics bedge

shadow ibex
#

If we can get jugg changed this expac is success

naive sage
#

Mages rogues and retri are the real enemies don’t blame shaman for a bit of spotlight

astral yarrow
#

Ret is never good though

visual lark
#

well depends on situation - ret has its moments in aoe and even cleve fights

naive sage
#

The damage output/stupidity of the spec ratio is over the acceptable threshold

astral yarrow
#

not like fury is much better in that regard

visual lark
#

for ret i agree- that spec is dumb easy, and not even fury is that good anymore- i don't what it is but fury just feels high apm for medicore damage

astral yarrow
#

its was not whether fury was good or not, but that fury requires the same very low amount of collaborating braincells to play as ret

teal fossil
#

They haven’t been good for that long

visual lark
#

ret i think is even lower with GCE macro now with holding 1 button i can pull off whole rotation

astral yarrow
#

so like fury rotation in S3 DF bedge

astral yarrow
#

"good"

#

they arent enh/dk levels in keys or anywhere like fury and enh in raid

visual lark
#

pretty much, 1 butting and you go though whole rotation while you can do all the utilities you need

naive sage
visual lark
#

i do want to know if Bizard plans on touching arms ever in terms of balancing and the clunckness

astral yarrow
#

arms got changes every ptr build except last weeks build where prot got all the love

teal fossil
#

None of the changes do anything

astral yarrow
#

tier set is zdps ratge

teal fossil
#

That’s the best part

visual lark
#

prot is weridly good but slowly clucky, i tested with it a bit and felt weird going colosus but i think it will be solved with haste tuning

the recharge rate does nottin

i might have gotten luck but i had 90% uptime on shield wall and avatar while going unmovable object talent but i think it just might be bug

teal fossil
teal fossil
#

My point is that no matter how high that part of the set is tuned

#

It’ll still be nothing in execute

#

even if your op just had no cd outside of execute

if the dmg part worked with the stacks too

teal fossil

Yeah if dam work with stacks then we good

I wish they would hire someone like me for class balance and design.

dim basalt

But that doesnt explain the high uptimes as the 2 set procs like once a minute or so

I'd fix a lot of things.

ToS arms specifically

I also wouldn't let a meta become so all encompassingly toxic.

astral yarrow

remove aug

if i found a genie

#

that would be my 3 wishes

icy mulch
#

Aug really did ruin the game.

#

Ppl are just too blind to see that.

astral yarrow
#

I think the spec is cool and pretty fun, but it just doesnt really work in wow i guess

#

cant have it increase tank/healer power when living is the only factor that stops key progression as dps isnt an issue

#

cant have it do all of its damage through others cause clueless casuals think its contributing nothing

#

can never know how much it contributes without logs

visual lark
astral yarrow
#

can never know for sure how much they contribute in logs cause hooks are broken af

dim basalt

#

2x augs make u magically do more damage in logs

Bro i hate good aug players

#

we somehow recruited 2

visual lark
#

well atm looks like prot might be the only warrior that might get to represt warriors in meta some what

It is ptr day so hopefully we get something

Colossus needs a heavy st pick up to be closer to slayer

I think fury also needs big St buff still

I’d like to see demolish own in ST and MT this patch personally

Depends if they do something to counter execute not giving cdr

olive nest

While also fixing its quirks

daring heron

Ofc we have no idea what they are planning

Then again. After seeing bloodsurge upsated

Id rather not see that

When was the last time arms had a good tier bonus?

olive nest

Clapper tierset was kinda cool

teal fossil

Lethal blows isn’t too bad at all

#

Especially for a first season set

wild kernel
#

Yeah lethal blows was nice, but I mean good as in big dps increase

#

Like enh shams had an insane bonus this szn

#

even if the gear was ugly af

teal fossil
#

There’s no difference between a 100k dps spec with a 50k dps set

Or a 140k dps spec and a 10k dps set

Because everyone has the set pretty fast

fresh spire
#

keks when they giga over buffednit

#

S3 was a good set fundamentally though the numbers was poop

teal fossil
#

Yeah if you want a boring aura buff tier it’s s1

fresh spire
#

Big aura buff to ms damage

#

Ms actually fucked

teal fossil
#

S3 also has so much tuning levers

#

It’s so well designed

#

You can buff 5 targets, st, or uncapped all separately

#

If they wanted to

olive nest
#

šŸ¦

river ridge
teal fossil
#

Yeah arms tier has been passive since the re introduction of tier

#

Lethal blows changed something slightly

latent moss
#

but s3 was a lot more fun on aoe

#

if they just made sd affect am and tom and gave us 2 sd stacks

#

getting "lucky" in exe phase getitng 3 sd in a row during cs right as avatar is coming up is peak alt f4 moment

fresh spire
#

Can't wait for the value of thunderclap to be better than overpower on aoe as dn sucks and mp is weak

#

(I've not confirmed this but clap was pretty good on aoe in s1)

daring heron
#

also if you op you risk losing streak stack

fresh spire
#

Don't remind me

#

The rng is wild. I did some Dummy testing with walhe doing 2:30 uptime and one of the pulls I did I op when opportunist or execute never ms unless brutal finish/2xmp-2ep when Cs up and it didn't proc once

#

(Training Dummy died instantly as it was low level was testing bl/jug execute feels with finishing)

charred brook
#

I miss old dreadnaught…

#

I loved it so very much

vast surge
halcyon valve
#

Same thing but it gave you a second charge of op

#

And did more damage

vast surge
#

I hate that they made us choose between strength of arms and dreadnaught.

brittle fiber
#

Nah, og dreadnaught was 2 charges and casting OP buffed Ms/exe

vast surge
#

Martial Prowess?

charred brook
#

Wasn’t it baseline too

#

Or a lot easier to talent in to

#

So even on st you could have some cleave

brittle fiber
#

Think it was SL that made it the cleave

vast surge
#

So old dreadnaught was dreadnaught + martial prowess

brittle fiber
#

Pre much

vast surge
#

I understand the lament

brittle fiber
#

Deadly calm still being a talent

charred brook
#

Choosing between defensive stance and second wind is crazy

#

Or Rend and massacre lmao

brittle fiber

Think you just went bounding stride

vast surge

Choosing between 2 charges, a self heal and a stop is pretty nuts

brittle fiber

And warbreaker was the go to in all content

I hate to say it but im kind of nostalgic over those trees

Cleave was just not great back then

Cleave sucked during those trees

I dont think u ever picked cleave there

that affect would be cooler if it duplicated the spell used at reduced effectiveness. Mortal strike landing twice could help colossus single target feel a bit better

marsh needle
#

is colossus or slayer better for lower keys? like 10 range

olive nest
#

I’d recommend colo purely because it’s more fun imo

#

To my knowledge slayer can do more ST vs colo does more aoe

vast surge
#

I recommend slayer because demolish sucks ass and slayer is more consistent.

#

And you have no risk of mobs being one pixel out the ability’s effective range and the spell failing completely and ruining your day.

olive nest
#

That’s definitely true

#

It sucks 🄜 when the mob is pulled away from you or leaps right after you cast demolish clueless

#

Fairly easy to avoid if you always send it into the big health prio target

#

Non of them really move that much

#

Except one that comes to mind witch is the mobs in the mists maze

Defenders I think they’re called?

Slayer, you can be a true warrior and zug zug to your heart’s content

Yeah the ones that dash out to the ranged

vast surge
#

They charge, they have area denial

olive nest
#

Those mobs are truly painful

vast surge
#

Motherfuckers are the classic example of blizzard over complicating things.

#

If you have only one ranged party member guess who’s eating back to back charges.

#

They paid a sub to play the game not spend the entire pull being knocked back and dying.

timber lynx
#

Its no wonder healers hate healing

between season of getting 1 tapped and miserable mechanics

in execute range as single target slayer, if i have two stacks of EP and two stacks of LB, and also two charges of overpower now, do i send one overpower to open up another potential tactician/lb proc or send mortal strike right away? assuming boss isn't going to die in the next global

teal fossil

Mortal strike

copy that

#

and how many globals should i spend fishing for x2 LB? usually if it's not proccing after 2-3 more executes i send x2 EP and x1 LB

If you want some effect, you would need to first build a large mass of twitter followers. Then use that to funnel into getting your opinion heard through there. A lot more impact that the WoW forum or here. As twitter got a bigger chance to reach the ear of someone in charge Hydrate minmax the twitter game

#

wh each and every class has to be tied down to a button rotation?
cant we have a set of basic skills that give different bonus outcomes for different pressing order?
Skill X Y Z = result 1
Skill Z X Y = result 2
etc ...

  • set of utilities like CC saves, spell reflects, stuns, etc
#

... too late to apply to work for Blizz

misty sandal
#

like ff?

strange perch
#

But similar system exists in the old Conan MMO

i am actually curious how can it be implemented in WoW.
Surely if Dracthyr press+hold is possible so should be skill combos.

nova marsh
#

Templar strikes

lucid apex
#

Ninja was a wild ride in ff. Loved playing that class.

#

It would be cool to have a templar strikes like ability for arms. Mortal strike could be two part combo that has a cool down in-between each press. The first hit does good dam while the second hit does huge damage. With the downtime between button presses, you could weave in overpower buffs or executioner precision. Could be a fun time.

minor gust
#

I wouldnt call templar strikes a combo abillity your pressing the same button

i've rerolled warrior but its geared for fury with lots of haste/mast gear. is it worth swapping to arms for the bosses in raid where its better, even if it sims lower for me atm?

chrome otter
#

i thought i was playing arms right, but i was playing it wrong. so i need someone to give me the run down on arms rotation. so my understanding is that the correct rotation is:

  • ms on cd, execute priority otherwise, and op if everything on cd.
  • during execute phase, execute until ms is usable, and op if there's nothing else.
    i thought i was suppose to stack 2 stack martial prowess and 2 stack ep. but all logs i've seen for execute phase was just execute till ms, and that's basically it.
#

either that, i'm too dumb to play arms

halcyon valve
#

Yeah you just spam execute by default

#

Execute is more valuable than op: rage spent reduces colossus smash cd, and you got juggernaut

astral yarrow
#

that or look up a guide

#

guides are good

chrome otter
#

i look at all the guides, maybe i didn't fully understand them, but i'll take a look a the sequence for my sim and see

astral yarrow
#

It also sort of helps looking up the APL for a given spec to try to understand the conditionals for what and why you are supposed to do things

although reading APL is pretty sweaty

havent played arms since SL since it is ⭐ not good ⭐ compared to fury right now, but I'm relearning for 11.1/future.

Whats the move with taking Thunder clap vs just using rend natty? I'm seeing it be kinda mixed with what people prefer in top logs

minor gust
#

the only differene between tc and rend is the intial dmg. Rend does double. So its player choice do you want to get .01% dmg increase or do you want to save a keybind

dire hinge
#

if you wanna be lazy about it: take Tclap if there's adds throughout the fight, Rend if it's pure single target, make a macro that toggles between them based on talent choice

based on the design of the fights next tier arms should be the play unless very undertuned ofc. tho i personally hope it won't be

should be the play for most fights*

right makes sense, though i dontreally understand the arms rotation if im being hoenst

I feel like I can just hit whatever isnt much rhym or reason

welcome to modern arms

oofers,

and then you get to end of fight and you just mash execute

When I say this I mean its not a big deal secondaries are pretty low impact just collect rings/neck for both specs

that house of cards trinket is gonna be pretty good if we're running mastery for fatality right?

it's still a 2m trinket for a 90 sec class. it's a ton of mastery tho

#

in the arms rotation, do you only use execute when
Your target has 3 stacks of Marked For Execution
You have 2 stacks of Sudden Death
Your Juggernaut is about to expire
?

#

if there is only slam or execute proc, does execute have priority over slam?

craggy iris
next flame
#

SD procs should be prioritised to keep up jugg few things are more satisfying than entering execute phase with 10-15(depends how lucky or unlucky you got) stacks of jugg

Feel like we get a execute proc often enough atm that if u prio it over slam u gonna keep the stacks anyway

But maybe im just lucky
