im a bit of a arms fan myself getting sent into this jail next season but this is a good jail

#

a very enjoyable jail

Hello, for those who have tried / simmed. Is there a slayer arms build for m+ that competes with fury for a st oriented / prio damage build? I'm afraid arms loses too much aoe in order to do this

eager sigil
#

think theres a jugg slayer build

tacit crystal
#

for current or live

remote ledge
#

Next patch

rare kite
eager sigil
#

just play fury if you want to fill that niche

silk spade
#

eager sigil
#

just play colossus

#

it will bang

remote ledge
#

I feel like colossus is just ret with different colors

#

Big aoes that do aoe damage

smoky kayak
#

I think Ret is closer to Fury tbh

#

aside from the obvious aesthetic difference of dw

#

Wake is basically Odyn's Fury, TV is essentially Rampage, etc etc

remote ledge
#

Fury always felt like outlaw rogue (older versions) played like a ret paladin for me

strange perch
#

Just popping in real quick to check if you guys think arms is a solid melee to push title with for season 2? Mostly pugging i’d say

#

Most prospected tierlists put it pretty high, not sure if that includes the top of the ladder

vague sonnet
#

this is like the most optimal for ptr keys ya?

#

having SD for more ST? i prefer more ST in keys for prio dam

rare kite
#

more st

shadow ibex
#

Might be better options than SD for st. Free occasional execute is gonna tickle because we don't have jug

vague sonnet
#

maybe BB?

#

bleeds only do about 9% of my ST

#

idk

vague sonnet
minor gust
#

I would not take SD on ptr as colossus

smoky kayak

latent moss
#

unless u are willing to suffer

smoky kayak
#

DN vs SoA is kind of preference, slightly more MT vs slightly more ST

#

Though I think the rotation is smoother with DN, since it makes more sense to me to prio OP a little higher

vague sonnet
#

wouldnt having finishing blows like wayyy overcap rage more than we already do? lol

minor gust
#

Finishing blows saves you in execute

latent moss
#

especially as a warrior

vague sonnet
minor gust
#

you also arent overcapping

vague sonnet
#

bet i like more ST in keys im ethical prio dam ❤️

rare kite
smoky kayak
#

if you want more rage all the time, you can make Bloodsurge work, it's just not as good

#

or take SkS for rage on demand I guess

vague sonnet
#

nah i prefer more ST in keys i hate the new SkS i prefer it back in DF s2

fresh spire
#

rage gonna make your execute not feel like shit fr

#

it starves like fuck as it is, you think 8 rage isn't much but you do use overpower quite a bit and when it does reset through bl stack even more rage on top aswell. does really help flow the spec a bit

magic canopy
#

20 rage per 40 rage exe if you op after

hey guys, do we consume oppurtunist over MS single Target ?

#

hey quick question

#

is arms worth playing rn vs fury or just wait until patch

fresh spire
# maiden moat because ? 😄

since overpower generates rage under 35% hp and rage also means harder hitting executes using procs of opportunist while your not rage capping means future executes will consume closer to the max rage available and help cause you to not rage starve

lean geode
hybrid canopy
#

ok

#

just wanna practice it

smoky kayak
#

long wait

lean geode
#

In general, (colossus) arms has good aoe damage every pull with demolish, but comparatively weaker prio and boss dam than fury

#

The difference isn't huge either way though

#

People do high keys with both

Which warrior dps spec is seemingly more smooth going into season 2? Looking to make warrior my alt.

#

@smoky kayak if I start deep diving into guides the next few days is that rotation how its going to look into season 2?

#

Or do I need to wait until Tuesday to see updated guide.

smoky kayak
#

they're kinda halfway there, just wait for Tuesday for the specifics

bronze sparrow
#

All good I can do that no problem

smoky kayak
#

but other than Fury's Reckless Abandon change, the rotations aren't dramatically different

trail orbit
#

But once you get arms and the quirks down I think one of the most rewarding specs in the game is

onyx rapids
#

practicing arms and gotta say, the misalignment of cooldowns is really annoying

#

When do you have to game jugg? Is that a mythic+ thing?

cloud glacier
#

Hey, Im planning of playing arms next season, any recomendations for the embellishment, is safe to craft the best one for this season or are they changing?

teal fossil
#

that just means each weapon gives you less dps

#

early in the season having 1 weaker offhand is pretty detrimental to performance

teal fossil
#

so you roll into execute with as many jug stacks as possible

wintry arch
#

Ooh gotcha is that significant dmg increase?

rare kite
wintry arch
#

Damn.

#

Only a raid thing tho

wintry arch
#

Yeah I’m raiding as arms s2

#

So just grab a SD wa and send towards the end

#

Do you eat sudden death procs ever?

rare kite
#

Yes, you can just get an sd weakaura tho. If it makes sound you press

wintry arch
#

Hell yeah I’m good at that tyty

teal fossil
#

yeah that optimization is quite annoying

wintry arch
#

Is colossus looking better for raid next season? Or we still waiting for tuning.

Slayer for raid, Colossus for M+

Slayer for M+ if you hate yourself

Just wait til Tuesday

half jolt
#

playing arms now in solo shuffle and i am feeling a bit annoyed with it. especial at the start when you got to get your all you dots and bleeds and damage stacks and sweeping strikes AND THEN you can start lining up a kill sequence

#

which is a couple EXE and a MS before your out of rage

#

guess im saying theres a lot of gcds to get through before it feels like your playing

smoky kayak
#

as usual, you probably don't want to craft anything asap anyway though, which gives some extra time to make that determination

torn gate
#

I looked at a few specs and sadly best in slot is infact best in slot for a lot of classes

remote ledge
#

I know the answer is sim yourself, but for colo are things changing stat wise? Mastery gained more and more value, with all the tuning are the stats changing? (I know it's only guidelines)

idle prairie
#

Colossus did want more crit than Thane, thats how it was on live server atleast. Dunno how it will be after the patch.

smoky kayak

#

Thanks for the answer. Is crit or haste personal pref or is one better for m+ one better for raid?

but isnt that supposed to be like that as slayer aswell for the most part? i know they sync up to avatar eventually but other then that not rly no?

#

Critical Bug Alert! The current test server has a game-breaking glitch where the "Sweep" skill duration extends up to 10 minutes. This likely enables players to abuse indirect damage stacking mechanics.

thick kelp
#

do explain how to do it chatting

lilac raptor
#

It turns out that a player in the test server exploited this game-breaking bug, pushing the damage of Cleave to an absurd 68 million.

dire hinge
#

right, picked up on that part

#

feel free to report it via the in-game bug system, unless you're able to provide further insights about it

lilac raptor
#

The precise mechanics are still a mystery, but it appears to exploit Avatar's cooldown reset to repeatedly stack Sweeping Strikes. This allows for an absurd accumulation of indirect damage layers, ultimately enabling a catastrophic Cleave with insane damage output.

dire hinge
#

such colorful sentences hmmNod

lilac raptor
#

That sounds like an absolutely thrilling experience!

dire hinge
#

quite

lilac raptor
#

However, this bug should only be achievable in the test server.

deep ridge
#

So 10+ mages in raid constantly resetting boss to clear my avatar CD will not br the case?

rare kite
#

but avatars cd doesn't get reset? the cd is too short

#

only 2m and higher get reset

#

Eee, you are right :-X

This is just my guess—the screenshot was shared with me by another player.

There is 0 chance i get my raid team to reset boss a million times to get sweep uptime

i am pugging mostly though, so it's more about getting invites etc

im confident i could make anything work good enough, but invites can be a bit rough sometimes

rare kite

mostly pugging is really rough for title anyway

Rip reforging

smoky kayak

Upgrade stuff as you can, but don’t waste finite resources on stuff you’ll replace too quickly (the game mostly handles this for you though, you’re unlikely to get many high level crests without also getting gear to use them on)

Speaking of gearing did we find out if m0 with s2 gear is available tomorrow or is it when the raid comes out?

M0 is out on season start, not patch day

Thanks!

Okay ! How does arms feel to play nowadays? Back in mop day was managing your rage/procs/cds so that you can fit the most slams as possible on CS resets as possible
Does arms plays close to that nowadays? Meaning, a more slow and calculated way compard to fury?

What about things like pre-pot? to drink a pot right before pull so that you can use two combat pots on a single fight? Does the game still have those "hidden" mechanics?

Nope

I’d like enchants and gems in every slot, reforging, and profession bonus
But I might just be goofy 🤪

They made it so you can equip ilvl without much extra thought

what about gear? I'm having a hard time understanding this gear upgrade system. gear seems to have dozens of different sources now
i guess since you can sim yourself easily on retail this is a no issue

#

Kek.

#

It is a very easy class to pick up though😅

smoky kayak
#

Ret damage rotation is simpler, easier to play, but it also has a much higher emphasis on doing extra utility shit (spit healing, cleansing, bopping, etc), which nice to have, but a lot more involved than just blasting dam

covert drift
#

Everywhere i look i see ppl saying ret is sweet, but there is so much of them that i just don't want to be another andy. plus i'm a warrior at heart

slow saddle
#

Which is not rly needed

#

But when u learn that, ya grp will love ya

olive nest
#

Just play warrior if you enjoy warrior

smoky kayak
#

I would argue that only bad rets don’t focus on their utility, and there are already way too many bad rets

slow saddle
#

Ofc. But if u are a new player

smoky kayak
#

In my mind, that’s the whole justification for them having a dummy easy rotation

covert drift
#

I'm not a new player, i'm a returning player

#

i was pretty hardcore back in mop

slow saddle
#

Mop though

covert drift
#

so i have the fundamentals of wow

smoky kayak
#

If I were a new or returning player, I still think focusing on one thing at a time is a better way to learn than focusing on multiple

olive nest
#

Make sure you get atleast 100 Weakauras, doesn’t matter witch ones but you need atleast 100 to play the game now

slow saddle
#

My thoughts was just very easy rotation. Then learn utility values

thick kelp
#

you are basically a new player if last time you played was in mop btw

covert drift
#

Last question, i read about M+ and i understood what it is. However if i understood if right, you only need to to +10 on each DG to get the maximum reward of gear for that week, correct? meaning, anything past +10 is just for competitive sake, correct?

smoky kayak
#

Yep, +10 is max rewards, sans a couple achievements

warm bronze
#

Feels like the same old jazz to me.

covert drift
#

Cool. I guess i'll focus on doing just +10 for the rewards and focus on raiding

It’s a mix, lots of system changes since mop, but fundamentals of gameplay aren’t too different

@covert drift You only need essential weakauras and a DPS addon. I got CE with only MRT note, a Weakaura package for raid, details, etc.

i don't want to go ret 😢

Start mid. Buffed to the top

cloud gyro
#

Good/mid specs never get buffed, its better to start op and get nerfed

#

Only way to get 'buffed' as a mid spec is to get a rework

shadow ibex
#

.2 for sure

wheat lagoon

next expansion

#

We are op and fun to play atm tho @pseudo crow in all seriousness

unborn canyon
#

only thing we are missing is party utility

shadow ibex
#

It's dam

#

in theory sadge

unborn canyon
#

every day, i wish they would add misshapen mirror(or whatever tf the spell reflect applies to closest ally thing was called) to the class tree

fresh spire
#

We almost had that for intervine in beta

unborn canyon
#

almost

#

thats the trick

Was trying to tag admin but seems ones watchin

Funny i only remember mass Sr bein useful for one fight

Mass spell reflect would be so damn good

No more aoe cds

delete every button except mortal strike and reduce the cd to global cooldown

Not warrior tree

ye, apparently not warrior tree

steep osprey
unborn canyon
#

yep

steep osprey
#

and the other side should have disrupting shout

#

don't @ me

covert drift
#

Guys quick question, i've read that arms be it slayer or colossus is not meta for higher m+ keys, however does that still apply to only +10 for the gear cap?

slow saddle

Or at that level it does not matter

Bring this Juggernaut back

icy mulch
# steep osprey don't @ me

Disrupting shout should be a choice node for intimidating shout. The AoE should be base line, and we can have the choice node be interrupt or knock back.

slow saddle
#

Aoe interrupt prob 2 good

unborn canyon
#

i mean

#

vdh gets aoe silence

steep osprey
#

Nah it isn't with the amount of utility we have

slow saddle
#

Its purple

#

Guys

#

We are brown

steep osprey

bringing warrior for something like a mass interrupt would be nice

Give better rally! In m+

unborn canyon

ye

i like the new talents we will play in 11.1

steep osprey

rally should be buffed by like 100% in parties

slow saddle
#

Ye

unborn canyon
#

its dumb it isnt

slow saddle
#

Like darkness

unborn canyon
#

like every other raid wide

#

except the ones i dont think about

slow saddle
#

Its still a 3m cd. So wouldnt even be op

unborn canyon
#

ye

unborn canyon
#

and condemn

slow saddle
#

Id take necrobanner

#

As utility

unborn canyon
#

id like necrobanner

#

if we also get the lego too, would be cool

#

like, a node under it

steep osprey

thoughts

slow saddle
#

Instead of spear

unborn canyon
#

ye, fuck spear

#

banner to buff allies and speeeeed

slow saddle
#

I dont mind spear in gen. Just bad as arms

steep osprey
#

I'm maining warlock in MOP Classic

quaint otter
#

Only dont get why wb leads to ep

slow saddle
#

If spear was a 45sec cd

icy mulch
#

Spear is awful. It being target capped makes it almost useless.

unborn canyon
slow saddle
#

It would fit warrior more and tbh still be weak

steep osprey
unborn canyon
#

its soft capped ye

steep osprey
#

not hard capped

slow saddle
#

Its dmg in gen is shit anyways

steep osprey
#

true

halcyon valve
# steep osprey

this shits so funny. just fucking looking at someone to reduce their damage taken

slow saddle
#

Spear into big demo dream still lives

unborn canyon
#

ye

quaint otter
unborn canyon
#

spear is basically just used for a buff

#

is sadge

#

except in pvp

slow saddle
#

Which i guess is ok

unborn canyon
#

in pvp, spear is neat

slow saddle
#

If we ravage- spear demo

unborn canyon
#

but no one cares about pvp

slow saddle
#

Make avatar give 10 demo stacks!!!

icy mulch
#

Yeah, which is still pointless. Anything that you really need that damage Amp on is immune to the CC. So you might as well take Roar. Prot is the only one that will make it work.
Oh and that one niche burn phase boss.

quaint otter
halcyon valve
icy mulch
#

Even then I think Roar was better.

slow saddle
#

Like fr its so dumb on first pull

steep osprey
#

I appreciate it

unborn canyon
#

just make spear a 30 yrd radius

slow saddle
#

Nah

unborn canyon
#

like ashen hallow

Radius is find

Not weapons but spears falling from the sky lockin mobs

#

What are we, hunters now?

unborn canyon
#

ye, like when do we use spears? when was the last str polearm in the game

slow saddle
#

I rly dno

#

Give ret spear

unborn canyon
#

give ret nothing

slow saddle
#

Give us execution thing

slow saddle
#

Give me something thats not spearArms

icy mulch
#

Give them nothing, take nothing. Let Ret be the training wheels class and enjoy being made fun of.

unborn canyon
#

not ones that were str i dont think

#

maybe?

icy mulch
#

They should just make Ret an Int class instead of str. Most of their shit is casted like wizards.

wanton sierra
icy mulch
#

No, we do not want to be a buff bot again.

halcyon valve
#

necro banner but instead of buffing people based on proximity, it buffs all warriors in the raid

wanton sierra
#

and banner buff stacks

icy mulch
#

Druids and mages screaming for banner for their combust or convoke shit.

wanton sierra
#

ye buff bot is no fun

slow saddle
#

We wanna be new shaman

dim basalt
#

Vigilance alone would make us so much better wtf

shadow ibex
#

Honestly I just wish spear wasn't a dps cd

#

Make it another ursols

#

Not that I would spend a global throwing it out when adds need to die but I want the option peepoBlush

icy mulch
#

Well, at this point our dps cool down buttons are just nothing burgers. Roar, spear, neither are great. Ravager and Blade storm are meh, mostly carried by unhinged, OF is trash now.

minor gust
#

Roar still fucks in AOE just not ST so I wouldn't call it a nothing burger

sturdy hearth
#

Mass spell reflect, my dream

trail orbit
#

all our capstones are just dogwater. best row we have is 3rd from bottom. that row is chefs kiss

#

still tho i enjoy our CD's, regardless of them maybe being underpowered i like having dmg for every pull.

#

but i also played a boomie forever where you hit incarn and then didnt do dmg for 3 minutes lol

weak rain
trail orbit
#

make it make sense.

weak rain
#

No meaningful choice

trail orbit
#

if you wanna complain about the point investment sure. but i mean come on bruh

solar nest
#

are we talking about the warbreaker row

weak rain
#

how is that chef's kiss? it's boring af cuz you have to take them all

trail orbit
#

brother idk man you must be spoiled playing a warrior lol

#

try playing a balance druid where you needed to take rake.

vapid pine
#

At least Rake is like sometimes used as 3/4 specs idk

trail orbit
vapid pine
#

In my opinion the only cool choices in talent trees are utility and mobility points depending on fights and dungeon, almost everything else is just a robot running sims and me following the result

trail orbit
#

its like that because we all use sims. no matter what each class is cookie cutter and set before you even step foot in a dungeon/raid. i mean thats just a fundamental problem wow has had forever lol. the "meaningful" choice shit is just a lame take. when that person who wants the choice will still just go and look up "best xyz build"

rich kernel
vapid pine
trail orbit
#

my take was that the warrior tree is fine lmao.

smoky kayak
# trail orbit ? lmao. yeah lemme hit this 2,000 hit rake on a target as opposed to getting 6% ...

they're both bad in different ways

  • Druid talent tree sucks because it's practically all utility, which means the stuff you're talenting into isn't useful half the time, making it all feel like a pointless endeavor
  • Warrior talent tree sucks because it's all damage and defense, which means any talents you don't take put you into a deficit. Want to take Berserker Shout to help your group break a fear? Too bad, you gotta give up 5% dam or healing to do it
vapid pine
smoky kayak
#

perhaps, but tangential to the point

trail orbit
smoky kayak
#

more damage/defense in the talent tree sounds good until you realize it's all placebo - if they replaced Rake (or whatever) with +6% damage, you're not just getting an extra 6% damage... you're going to lose 6% from the baseline in expectation that you'll take that talent

vapid pine
#

I feel like every successful rework has involved more different kinds of mobility points. It's like the only thing that can genuinely be preference between players without trolling.

smoky kayak
#

This is what's commonly referred to as "the illusion of choice" by the way

fading aspen
#

in an ideal world i think utility only competes with different utility

trail orbit
#

i will agree that the warrior tree does have some point restricitons other classes do not.

smoky kayak
#

like I said, they're both just problematic in different ways

trail orbit
#

yea

smoky kayak
#

Shaman are in a similar situation to Druid where 90% of their talents feel pointless cause it's all circumstantial utility they may or may not actually care to use from time to time

#

and don't get me wrong, utility effects are great to have and use... when you actually have a reason to use them, but you don't always and spending talent points on cleanse or whatever feels kinda pointless when you don't have anything to cleanse (just like Warriors being forced to talent through Shockwave on single target stun-immune bosses)

trail orbit
#

yeah and again apologies if it came off as aggressive wasnt meant to come off like that. im just coming from a point where its nice to actually have usable nodes even if just passive shit. id rather have dmg #s than button bloat on stuff that is as niche as niche can come.

smoky kayak
#

Yeah, you're not wrong that the Druid tree has some obvious problems

trail orbit
#

again mb shouldnt have brought the other class shit in the war disc

smoky kayak
#

and part of it is because of trying to juggle four specs in one tree

trail orbit
#

yea for sure

smoky kayak
boreal quartz
#

Druid tree is atrocious

#

Infinte things you should technically have keybound

trail orbit
#

yeah, i am very much enjoying a little simpler style of gameplay lol, played warrior for a long time but got away from it during WoD so its been nice to comeback.

minor gust
#

The honeymoon phase wears off

#

Fury is fine but once you start actually noticing how cursed arms is then you join us in suffering

trail orbit
#

haha it does for every class. im just moreso happy if arms blows i can go fury or vice versa. being a balance main, was rough because if it sucks you're kinda SoL

nimble basin
#

So after the first set of c/ds on col m+ it just never really lines up again fully for a while right?

trail orbit
boreal quartz
#

Arms is just meh Design

nimble basin
#

I'm looking forward to doing something new. Don't mind the general rotation but the use of cooldowns feels a little scuffed.

Hey guys whats our stat priority going into S2? Looking at the BiS gear list its heavy mastery but the stat prio says mastery is 2nd to last (Im assuming its just not updated yet)

nimble basin

In that regard we are simpler keks

trail orbit
#

no in between lol

dim basalt
#

Tho instead of bear you go def stance

dim basalt
#

Just slightly better

trail orbit
#

yeah but at least i can do dmg lmao

#

instead of hitting mangle

#

lol

sharp wyvern
#

we dont need to go into def stance we get 10% more hp

trail orbit
#

10% reduc dmg def sucks. but better than 95% reduc lol

just ask for sac

Welcome to arms

#

Here's your suffering badge

nimble basin
#

do we wait for 2 stacks before using cleave if we can overpower twice or just send cleave?

minor gust
#

Send cleave on cd

opal flax
#

is arms wrarior gonna be running bladestorm build in 11.1?

minor gust
#

Only time you do that is for your collateral if it's still gonna be in cds

nimble basin
nimble basin
minor gust
#

Usually your collateral will be lined up with avatar and demolish buff if you can squeeze in a 2 stack cleave before they fall it's worth. If not don't worry about it and just send

nimble basin
#

I haven't looked into raid much, how many bosses are we ST'ing?

minor gust
#

Slayer for raid col for M+

nimble basin
minor gust
#

Not really sure didn't do much raid testing but arms likes to play to it's strength and that's ST

#

So normally even if the fight has cleave like queen you stay full ST

nimble basin
shadow ibex
#

We have no idea what gally is like

#

No heroic testing

#

Could be omega arms fight

minor gust
#

Max has confirmed there's atleast two bosses where the execute phase actually matters because dmg outside of it isn't as impactful so there's some arms juice this tier

what about the hunter execute

minor gust
#

ive been trying to learn arms for the past few days and honestly it feels like a mess with a bunch of button bloat (could be wrong just very used to fury) , is this gonna change in s2 or will it feel the same?

we might be cooked

minor gust
warm bronze
#

Do we still use rend over TC in ST situations?

#

I still have a bad habit using thunderclap on CD over slam, but I’m smashing it into my monke brain

minor gust
#

Rend is technically better in ST over TC but the dmg gain is super minimal if you want to save the keybind you can just use TC instead of rend

warm bronze
icy mulch
#

I'm actually surprised that some of the builds aren't even using rend.

#

That M+ build last week, no Blood borne, no rend, no capstones on Roar.

sage badge
#

I imagine it's because bleed damage is down bad. Cleave and demolish is majority of your aoe.

minor gust
#

There is no real build that doesn't take rend

#

That was just a gio build

icy mulch
#

I'd rather have my buttons do big dam instead of tickling things. I need that rush of seeing big chunks of hp bars vanish.

minor gust
#

I'd rather have a no bleed build either but our other talents aren't good enough to drop rend

icy mulch
#

There are many talents that have been just completely dead in the water all expac. Both Arms and Fury have a fair amount of talent nodes that suck. Some even being choice nodes.

minor gust
#

Yup and something tells me they will survive into the next expansion aswell

#

Another expansion of spiteful and dance of death I can't wait

or at least it's very close for slayer so maybe/maybe not worth

arms was better the entirety of cata

I played all three.

I can't wait for MOP warrior ExcitedBlushette

i think in mop fury is better but no clue

steep osprey

it's close in mop

#

depends on fights

#

Didn't play warrior back then and everyone says they loved it and was just as good as legion

steep osprey
#

arms is really good at fights with big trash that lasts long

icy mulch
#

MoP was where everyone played their class and part of another. Lol

steep osprey
#

fury is aoe burst fights

trail orbit
#

arms is better in MoP once you get the cloak

steep osprey
#

but warrior in general is mid in mop

warped coral
#

Hi, is it possible to get a data of all spells, damage talents etc for arms warrior?

steep osprey
#

i'll be playing warlock

warped coral
#

All stats

trail orbit
#

but fury was always better but not by much. Once you get the cloak tho my lord arms feasts.

steep osprey
#

I don't know if that's true

#

but I know fury did better ST than arms

#

the only fight arms was actually good in SoO was Galakras

#

even then it's not that good because it was just add damage

trail orbit
#

siege is a trash raid anyway

steep osprey
#

I liked it

#

but it's too long

trail orbit
#

yeah.

#

4 bosses to long

steep osprey
#

@thick kelp the 2pc is also good

#

-10 cost to heroic strike during inner rage

shadow ibex
#

Fury mop could be the best designed spec ever

steep osprey

that was the main issue of inner rage, hc costs too much

thick kelp

yeah finally makes ir usable spell keks

Depending on who you ask

Was Warrior lit in MoP? Maybe I try it just for my war/lock

steep osprey
#

it was

#

in terms of gameplay

minor gust
#

a lot of people loved Mop warrior

#

usually people say legion or Mop was their fav warrior expansion

trail orbit
#

only thing with legion was the leggos. if you had the leggo drops you were chillen

warped ether
#

Warr was goated in mop

#

Id say a lot of button bloats but it was hella fun

trail orbit
#

but MoP is def the best for War. i liked wrath arms and Dragon soul arms as well.

#

just talkin class design but yeah if u didnt get your bis lego at the start you werent having a good time in the begining of Legion

trail orbit

oh yeah for sure. specially during tomb it was really really good.

god I would pay so much money if they skipped wod classic and went straight to legion

give me legion with lego vendor at the start

Sidenote: has anyone heard anything about what they are doing with the Dinar coin now that its not in renown track?

warped ether

Omg I just remembered we had a aoe kick in mop

slow saddle
#

Ravager is great

shadow ibex
#

Mop was when we were most durable

#

Had shield wall

icy mulch
junior lava
#

Thats what I though just saw it had a section in the new Wowhead Arms guide

minor gust
#

best guess well get it in the .5 patch

warped ether
#

Wasent mop where we had bloodbath aswell ?

minor gust
#

Renown estimation had it originally coming out in .7 patch but Blizz agreed Dinars should come earlier and should be its own thing not tied to the renown

#

most likely also adding a way for Dinar to be used and aquired by M+ only people

junior lava
#

They should just tie it to AotC and KSM

#

In addition to the catalyst charge

minor gust
#

thats to early

#

week 1 buying your bis wep or trinket or w/e super rare shit

junior lava
#

I guess thats fair

#

Especially for RWF

icy mulch
#

Yeah KSM will be week one for most of us doing M+ as our main content.

severe haven

Reminder pvp 1600 also gets you a separate free token

I will do that ez

a lot of mythic raiders get Aotc week 1 aswell

i wish i could get into tanking

its just so meh, i wanna do dam. not worry about living

minor gust
#

Warrior is a class that likes all stats you can freely swap between each spec at most just have different rings and necks

#

dont feel the need to only play arms in a tier or fury

icy mulch
#

I only tanked keys up to 12, than no one wanted anything but Pally. I had been doing all specs through keys when I don't have to tank.

junior lava
#

Oh cool in that case Ill probably swap around depending on the fight

severe haven
#

I'm getting my portals and mount and dipping I think

#

I'll m+ on my alt

I enjoy not being forced into a caste system that is LFG
