What hero tree are we looking to use in raid and in m+? Or are they both close enough?

minor gust

Raid = Slayer M+ = Col

Y make it, so its available once bad guilds start proggin first wall boss

any changes to embelishments?

shadow ibex
#

I might cut back on m+ I'm kinda sad colossus gameplay is unchanged

#

Cleave cleave cleave for 6 more months I can't

just letting people know that this is copy pasted from the fury article and we don't have slayer and mountain thane talent trees idk who mantains that

Double dawnthread next season (probably after you craft a weapon, idk, you can also craft ascension on your weapon temporarily if you want to be sweaty) but tbh embellishments are all kinda shite

#

Whats funny is that lots of people are complaining about enh while ele could be the bigger culprit atm

#

On ptr I mean

sharp wyvern

but thats fine cause ele hasnt been played for years

quaint otter

Cuz pts isnt real date

But you know shits real when Petko himself puts ele on S tier

but ye we will see

shadow ibex
#

It needs a nerf

#

If we do

quaint otter
sharp wyvern
#

but thats when enh was needed for windfury so no one took it

quaint otter
sharp wyvern
#

they made windfury baseline for all specs and still made enh the best spec

they have to make gazzilion damage baseline for all specs

#

I know, was just letting someone know the code broke after it was pushed to wowhead

smoky kayak
#

it's broke because the patch isn't live

dim basalt
#

Its not broken

smoky kayak
#

and you're looking at the live page

#

you need to swap to the PTR version of the page to look at PTR data

dim basalt
#

It uses the talent string from the new tree for the old tree cuz we are not on 11.1 yet

i think the play is to mute discord until tomorrow and then mark all as read xdd

#

If the overall structure is still the same it doesnt break

smoky kayak
#

I don't think that page is even updated yet lol

#

anyway TLDR, don't look at shit early

#

you're gonna have problems

trim niche
#

And it's only 1 specific build linked (Slayer M+). Which leads me to believe it's a specific code on that element.

smoky kayak
#

if you see somethin broke, just be patient, it'll almost certainly be fixed on patch day

trim niche
#

I am only letting you know in case you didn't see it.

gaunt owl
#

if its broke after 2 days when patch is live

#

thats when shit broke for real

#

Guys where is the mythic gallywix strategy on wowhead? I think the raids page is broken

minor gust
gaunt owl
dim basalt
#

Man Im gonna be hyped to see the Gallywix fight

smoky kayak
trim niche
smoky kayak
#

actually this is why

#

we used to have two Slayer M+ builds - one with and one without Juggernaut, but I depreciated the latter in favor of just the former (cause frankly, Slayer without Jugg is just bad Colossus)

trim niche
#

It also seems wowhead is kind of broken across the board. It seems to be resizing when you switch tabs and it shouldn't be (It's happening everywhere)

smoky kayak
#

but because of the order of builds, it was still trying to "find" the now removed version; if you reload the page it should be fixed (though a lot of the text on that page is still awaiting updates)

smoky kayak
dim basalt
#

How does updating the guide even work - can you submit it immediately or does someone have to check everythings alright

smoky kayak
#

I update them directly; we do have proofreaders/editors (which I'm actually one of), but I'm one of the most senior writers, so my changes don't need any kind of approval

dim basalt
#

I see

trim niche
smoky kayak
#

yeah show me an example if you can, because I don't see that

#

are you on mobile? cause mobile sucks terribly

dim basalt
#

Tbf making a responsive design is hard

trim niche
#

On a desktop:

smoky kayak
trim niche
#

Ahh, this is probably a browser issue

smoky kayak
dim basalt
#

Cant be browser related

smoky kayak
#

Yeah, it kinda looks that way, like top bar links are in the middle of the screen

dim basalt
#

Its probably because some javascript cant figure out how to render the talent tree for your specific resolution

#

So it does that

smoky kayak
#

maybe some really wonky resolution, like a vertical monitor?

trim niche
#

Sorry this is an apples to apples

#

it's 21:9

#

Even my 16:9 is doing it

smoky kayak
#

lemme open incognito

#

I just don't get why there's so much dead space on the left/right of your screenshots

trim niche
#

Oh that's full screen 21:9

dim basalt
#

Could also be related to (blocked) ads

smoky kayak
#

this is my full screen incognito

trim niche
#

The issue seems to be just me. As mentioned, other guides on wowhead are doing the same thing for me. It's a me issue.

smoky kayak
#

Yeah, I'm just trying to figure out if it's a browser issue, aspect ratio, or something else so that I can inform our guys

#

because if you're having the issue, however obscure, it's possible someone else running the same setup does as well

lost kernel
#

anyone have excel spreadshit with all tier set classes dps in season 2?

trim niche
#

Gotcha. I have a second 16:9 monitor as well. Seems to be doing the same thing

dim basalt
#

It does even weirder shit for me btw

smoky kayak
#

maybe some odd extensions?

#

idk this is very much a "works fine on my machine" situation, so it's hard to say without seeing what your seeing/using

I tried incognito, didn't help. I cleared cash back 1 hour

Now it works fine for me

covert drift
dim basalt
#

I assume its the framework having issues with updating for the resolution

covert drift
#

And on heis pc it appears small and centered

dire hinge
#

my guess would be JS issue. Every time you swap tabs back and forth once it occurs, it throws this:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set properties of null (setting 'innerText') --> Guide.js?df3b3c8382
people might be getting served different js file versions would be my guess

dim basalt
#

Nah that prob doesnt do anything

covert drift
#

Maybe the width of the container is set to an static value instead of a dynamic one

dim basalt
#

Possibly

covert drift
#

most websites are not made with ultrawide in mind

last inlet
#

i mean, it dosen't bother me so xD just wanted to throw my 2 cents

dim basalt
#

Either that or under specific conditions the component doesnt re-render

grand idol
#

I see what he is seeing when I swap between the two trees. It flashes for a moment and then corrects to side by side.

Im using a quite wide monitor, Edge browser. perhaps its a browser issue>?

smoky kayak
#

maybe, try a diff browser and see? dracthyr_shrug

trim niche
#

Chrome here, edge and chrome share the same backend

dim basalt
#

Which I assume does not always happen for whatever reason

smoky kayak
#

idk but this def isn't a content issue, so I'll poke our devs about it and let them figure it out

trim niche
#

Same issue on edge. Yes it's definitely not a content issue.

dim basalt
#

Honestly what youre seeing there is normal

#

Happens with every site nowadays lmao

trim niche

It's all I have to offer 😦

smoky kayak
#

Yeah, I mean thanks for bringing it up, just nothing I can do about it on my end

do we really have to farm delves? 😦

thick kelp
#

depends if your raid leader is a generous man

guess my answer

trim niche
#

Any guild that isn't CE and forces you to do content especially week 1 doesn't deserve you. Hell you don't really even need M+ if you aren't going for CE.

hey gamers

how yall doin

holding up well gladge excited for next week

hybrid canopy

same

#

I wanna try arms but idk lol

lunar remnant
#

Arms ain't that bad once you do a few runs

hybrid canopy
#

I wanna keep it up as an alt since I main DK and we only have one warrior

#

been only doing fury and prot

#

haven't touched arms yet

dim basalt
#

Its not gonna feel as "fluent" as fury if youre expecting that

lunar remnant
#

Def a little more higher ceiling than fury but not by much it's clunky at times compared to fury imo

hybrid canopy
#

🗒️ I see

timber lynx
#

Arms is king

dire hinge
#

it's cozy though. Agreed it's not super fluid, but it's also not overly complex.

#

Mortal Strike is gonna juice in single target
Cleave is going to absolutely do mind-boggling dps in AoE

dim basalt
#

Now buff Demolish even more ragey

gaunt owl
#

its not critting all the time

#

they should make it like Chaos Bolt

alpine veldt
#

What talents now for arms

#

m+

dire hinge
dim basalt
#

Dunno if I want another buff to keep up

#

Either its so weak that dropping it doesnt matter or its so good that dropping it sucks as much as dropping jugg

sharp tendon
#

With collosus u need like 30% crit to let it work?

hybrid canopy
#

question, do we mainly do slayer or colossus in raid and m+

#

out of curiosity

dim basalt
#

Slayer raid, colossus M+

dire hinge
hybrid canopy
#

I see

#

what's the gameplay of colossus

#

I already know slayer

dim basalt
#

Not too different

#

Less executes but another ability to press roughly every 30s

#

That you wanna combine with other cds if possible

dire hinge
hybrid canopy
#

oooh gotcha

dire hinge
#

also you swap to Ravager instead of Bladestorm

dim basalt
#

(fuck bladestorm)

dire hinge
#

the practical impact of Ravager is that during Execute Phase you don't cast Mortal Strike if Ravager is active

#

You Execute between the auto-MS's that get generated by Ravager instead

#

but that's basssically it

dire hinge
#

happy to help friend, good luck out there in Season 2 and we're here to help with any questions that arise 🥰

fresh spire
hallow mortar
#

do we have to track opportunist procs still or is it a bit easier considering tier set change

candid pecan
hallow mortar
#

asking cause tracking it so it takes prio over MS screwed me up this past tier

minor gust
#

so yeah you still need to track opportunist in 11.1

hallow mortar
#

well both

#

but i get what youre saying

#

so opportunist OP is still higher prio than MS?

minor gust
#

yes

hallow mortar
#

even with EP stacks? oof

shadow ibex
#

opportunist has entered the chat

candid pecan
#

10 stacks winning streak with opportunist wicked

hallow mortar
#

yeah i saw some commentary about moving power from OP to MS a few months ago, is why im asking

#

idk if it was that specifically, that you posted

#

but feels like its not the case at all yeah?

fresh spire
#

scaling, 100%->115% 115%->20% again etc

shadow ibex
#

OP is hitting harder than its ever before

hallow mortar
#

lol blizz

pseudo crow
#

hey ! no 2craft on the bis list wow head ?

shadow ibex
#

that statement was just some buzzwords

tacit crystal
shadow ibex
#

like idk what they mean by moving dmg from MP to MS+ cleave = open up more rotational and build options?

tacit crystal
shadow ibex
#

our builds havent really changed

candid pecan
dim basalt
#

whoa gio with a new pfp

hallow mortar
shadow ibex
#

and MP wasnt changing our roation

#

opportunist was

minor gust
#

they dont really think things through when they make warrior changes

#

nothing new

tacit crystal
hallow mortar
#

smooth braining it up

gaunt owl
shadow ibex
#

just giving benefit of the doubt and really parse thru what they said

#

yea but they said it was done to open up build and rotation options, neither of which happened

hallow mortar
#

sounds like very typical to me

shadow ibex
#

i mean i guess if you count slayer going for EB now, but thats probably like 60/40% bleeds being weaker vs ms strong

gaunt owl
#

they cant open build diversity

#

too many fucking amp here and there that always hard lock the choice to be optimal

shadow ibex
#

lowering MP % buff didnt open up any rotation change. we weren't prio OP over MS cuz of MP, its cuz of opportun

gaunt owl
#

it should help with the Execute rotation too

#

we probably wont see a spam Execute anymore with those change

noble path
#

What % is Arms and Furys Tier worth?

thick kelp
#

fury is 3-4%

#

arms is 7-8%

noble path
#

When do you swap with old tier? 2 set 2 set?

thick kelp
#

idk

#

sim it

thick hamlet
#

can i get a clarification on this? my warrior brain can't understand

#

colossus should use its hardest hitting abilities, so we made it so u use execute less?

sharp wyvern
#

they want you to prioritize MS over execute

#

cause MS is the spec

gaunt owl
#

Mortal Stroke

thick hamlet
#

seems weird

dim basalt
sharp wyvern
#

for colossus execute isnt supposed to be a hard hitting ability in their eyes

naive breach
#

im about to mortal strike

thick hamlet
#

okay maybe im still too peanut brain for this

thick kelp
thick hamlet
#

if they made mortal strike hit like a truck (harder than execute), but execute still gives stacks, you still would want to mortal stroke over execute

#

so why remove that

shadow ibex
#

like that reasoning was a complete lie lol

#

we weren't prio exe over MS as colossus. you couldnt afford the damn thing

dim basalt
#

Bet that change was with only prot in mind

#

And they forgot Arms exists

sharp wyvern
gaunt owl
#

we asked for MS to hit hard on its own for a long time

sharp wyvern
#

cause EP

shadow ibex
sharp wyvern
#

we still are gonna do that but now we will prioritice MS procs over getting that 2nd EP stack

#

talking out of my ass btw

shadow ibex
#

it just doesnt make sense at all

thick hamlet
#

that's just forcing the spec to play a specific way instead of tuning it properly

#

if it's tuned as it should be with MS hitting like a truck, you'd always use it over execute

sharp wyvern
#

thats part of the tuning

trail orbit
#

when we go colo - outside of the first initial use we are trying to use it at 10 stacks & cmash ya?

shadow ibex
#

it didnt use exe any more than a normal arms spec. no one was playing colossus in raid so idk where they got too much exe usage?

thick kelp
sharp wyvern
#

things get nerfed so we will prioritize other spells

shadow ibex
#

like really really think about it

sharp wyvern
#

thats tuning

shadow ibex
#

where were these colossus warriors usign exe too much? not in raid because no one raided as colossus

shadow ibex
#

we didnt use it in m+ cuz we cant afford it

#

so where the hell was this over the top exe usage

#

u cant even go ok in raid as ST as devils advocate because like 7 ppl players colossus in raid and they are here and they did it after prog

thick hamlet
#

execute in m+ colossus with SS up was a fun minigame to stack up on demolish quicker

fading aspen
#

they should have made the tier set called "gambling debt" and allowed us to go negative on our rage 5head

sharp wyvern
#

yeah i can only imagine they didnt want us cleaving and getting a stack every gcd

shadow ibex
#

im really at the point where if im gonna run EP in colossus keys im just gonna run fatality or smth

dim basalt
#

We get a stack pretty much every gcd anyway

shadow ibex
#

cuz i cant afford EP anyway

sharp wyvern
shadow ibex
#

if you send every 20 rage exe as possible as colossus, u cant press buttons

#

thats the problem tbh. if you spam exe u'll never get above 26 rage

#

cuz the refund + auto isnt enough for an MS ever

sharp wyvern
#

fopr aoe situations and Demolish Cdr it can make sens e

shadow ibex
#

so again idk why the fuck they think we were spamming exe

sharp wyvern
#

but it would be unoptimal to do that

#

so yeah

thick hamlet
#

is that somehow bad design?

#

or even unfun gameplay

sharp wyvern
#

cause they want MS to be the main character for collosus

#

and execute for slayer

thick hamlet
#

but it is

shadow ibex
#

it already was

sharp wyvern
#

clearly not enough

thick hamlet
#

clearly to who, i don't get that part

#

i'm sure there's something we're not seeing

sharp wyvern
#

blizz devs

shadow ibex
#

going by the reason they gave

#

it just wasnt true

pseudo crow
#

slayer for raid et coll for mythic that's right ?

thick hamlet
#

the reason they gave doesn't apply

sharp wyvern
#

they also said they want OF to be a good button

#

lets not pretent they give good reasons

thick hamlet
#

those little "notes" they give are often wildly innacurate

#

like "moving the damage of MS and cleave baseline to open up rotational and build options"

#

what does that even mean

#

wrote by a politician

thick kelp
#

it means nothing with these talent trees

#

old talent trees that would mean something

#

like we can talent another active ability etc

sharp wyvern
#

i miss 6 rows of talents

naive breach
ancient birch
#

i didn't play any of the 0.5 patch. Is it worth getting the ring for next patch or should i just leave it?

fading aspen
#

i'm new to arms this tier, honestly the only things that annoy me are awkward lineups for cooldowns and sweeping strikes being on the gcd. other than that the rotation feels fine but maybe i'm cooked

fading aspen
#

it doesn't take long at all either

ancient birch
#

think the'll nerf it when patch drops

or do what they did in dragonflight

Crit has always been good for arms

Er it's been crit and haste for ages I thought? And I'd guess probably cause haste has diminishing returns more so then crit

doing mechanic is the way to kill boss

quaint otter
#

Having good healers is

gaunt owl
#

one day everybody will understand that

quaint otter
gaunt owl
#

you will never have healer like in top20 guilds lvl

#

they are so few

dim basalt
#

Even in top 3 the differences are huge

quaint otter
dim basalt
#

rip Zaelia

#

😦

minor gust
#

so few cuz healing fucking sucks to play for years now

gaunt owl
#

there is a reason they try to poach the healer

#

healing is all about min / max dmg now anyway

#

everything else is like a piano sheet

#

people just have to follow their CD and self sustain as much as possible

umbral gyro
#

hey guys. are there arms Weakauras that I need?

olive nest
#

Yeah one that tells you when mortal strike is available to cast

pseudo crow
#

on the exec rota, why 4. Bladestorm with 2x Executioner's Precision ? i don't understand

olive nest
#

Because it will auto cast mortal strike and consume the buffs

void bay
severe haven
#

i play both specs with my pvp weakauras lol

#

covers basic things like demo stacks ss etc

autumn slate
#

Anyone have any raw numbers (percentages) on how much better arms is going to be in m+ next patch?

olive nest
#

Are you asking which one sims higher in aoe?

autumn slate
#

Relative to season 1 (Colossus specifically)

#

Trying to get myself hyped

halcyon breach
#

You'll do more damage in S2, relative to S1 standards

#

(Note the numbers might not be 100% accurate either for ST, as some things are still changing here and there)

autumn slate
latent moss
#

velf superior

candid pecan
covert drift
#

Is slayer > colossus still true?

dusty depot
#

For ST yes

autumn slate
candid pecan
covert drift
#

I'm conflicted. I like the colossus theme and fantasy better, but like the playstyle around execute more

#

oh well

#

can't have it all i guess

terse plume
#

from those sims just given it looks like the difference is not enormus though, same for fury vs arms as well

rare kite
terse plume
#

yeah and colossus looks ahead in most aoe sitations atm

#

but a bit at least

covert drift
#

that's sweet then

shadow ibex
#

slayer aoe is more a suggestion not a real thing

terse plume
#

yep overall if those sims from above pan out to be about what were at, wars looking solid for choices as the differences are not so massive that comfort and preference couldnt take ahead

shadow ibex
#

bladestorm does 0 dmg in aoe so your aoe is reaping strikes or w/e

covert drift
#

bladestorm not doing aoe damage is strange to me

#

don't fit

#

good aoe dmg i mean

terse plume
#

its more that alot of arms bs damage is baked into applying dws to everything

shadow ibex
#

nah

#

cleave does that too

#

and DW makes up very little damage

covert drift
#

So if those parses are true, we become the low utility but big dik damage class, right? seems fair

shadow ibex
#

BS just doesnt hit hard period. each tick of it is roughly a slam in damage per target hit

covert drift
#

It allways seemed to fit warrior better

#

not a lot of utility but high damage

magic canopy
#

i might go velf

shadow ibex
#

each tick is like what 150% AP? if that. for context MS is over 600% AP as colossus

magic canopy
#

depends on if there is ANY nelf tek

shadow ibex
#

overpower is 300% AP

terse plume
#

I mean our damage compared to other classes is entirely unknown just looking at our own sims

shadow ibex
#

BS just doesnt hit hard at all

covert drift
#

which is weird

#

i think they can't get rid of BS because it's such an iconic spell

#

for so long

shadow ibex
#

its true for all of our abilities with a cooldown

rare kite
shadow ibex
#

BS ravager roar spear all do very little now

magic canopy
#

i will never

#

be a short king

shadow ibex
#

dwarf is the shit

rare kite
#

dwarf owns

shadow ibex
#

but xmog is rough

magic canopy
#

i want my armor to not look like shit

shadow ibex
#

probably my least favorite xmog race and i've been tauren + troll

covert drift
#

xmog is the true endgame

#

can't skip that

autumn slate
#

Just be a tall dwarf and play kul tiran

magic canopy
#

half the reason female nelf and void elf own are becuase they are pretty similar to the human male modal which im pretty sure all armor is designed around

rare kite
shadow ibex
#

i want berserking bad but troll xmog situation is fuckin awful

covert drift
#

i wish i could play kul'tiran but the belly ruin most sets

magic canopy
#

im a Kul Tiran IRL i dont need that in game too

terse plume
#

Im the exact opposite

#

I play human knight in all things

#

now I can be fat knight

#

sign me up

#

XD

autumn slate
#

Thicc boy gang

shadow ibex
#

i actually like KT animations and xmog

covert drift
#

they made the belly too round

shadow ibex
#

but would never play one fuck that versi

terse plume
#

certain sets with kultiran for plate look amazing

covert drift
#

it should have a belly but a flatter one

#

like strong men

terse plume
#

eh ver is really good later in an expansion

covert drift
#

big belly, but a strong one

#

the way it is just looks like an average beer belly

shadow ibex
#

i gotta make a good void elf xmog but man i forgot how much i hate elves

#

all armor looks tiny all weapons are tiny

covert drift
#

Like this, big but not so round

pseudo crow
#

i can't trake martial prowess stacks on wa for "Overpower with Opportunist, rage <80, and <2 stacks of Martial Prowess", can i have help ?

shadow ibex
#

i wish we had a void tier of armor

#

best we got is nyalotha

terse plume
#

KTs look amazing in the mythic antorus set

#

one I use the most lol

covert drift
#

the belly WARPS the armor like it's cloth

shadow ibex
#

dwarf gets that too

terse plume
#

eh when wearing the full set the belt and shoulders stick out more

shadow ibex
#

some belts on dwarves also get a x2 size inc

terse plume
#

and nearly all plate sets warp on any model, thats just the nature of how wow does chest armor

autumn slate
#

A lot of the chest pieces that are 3d look great on kul titans. Throw a chainmail tabard underneath and you are set

covert drift
#

I feel like this is what it should have been

#

If kul tiran were like this i would roll them everytime

magic canopy
#

i do think the beer gut was artistically the better choice

#

vs buff human guy

#

gives em a distinct feel

shadow ibex
#

i would agree

#

if it was a big part of their character

covert drift
#

normal humans are buffed

#

this conpect is more like strongmen buffed

shadow ibex
#

ike if kul tiras was a fuckin oktoberfest stand in

covert drift
#

Plus look at those fucking forearms bro

#

there it not even a wrist

#

lmao

#

humans are more close to gorillas on azeroth i guess

shadow ibex
#

i wouldnt mind KT if they fixed the warping gear does

#

but probably lowest prio

#

happens with troll backs too

#

back of all plate gets stretched over 3yards because they hunch

covert drift
#

yeh...

#

that's why i allways rolled human or female orc on horde side

#

best mog looks

shadow ibex
#

yea fem orc is S tier

#

so is troll

#

and panda

covert drift
#

zandalari would be S if not for the toes out allways

shadow ibex
#

feel like i never see zanda ever anymore

trying to understand the conditions for execute. so we never press it, unless any of the three conditions are met? not even as a filler when the only other option is slam?

teal fossil
#

what conditions are you reading right now

arctic fjord
#

11.1 before execute

#

On wowhead

minor gust
#

you only press execute if you have 3 stacks of marked for execution or you have 2 stacks of Sudden Death or to refresh Juggernaut before it falls off

#

since this is pre execute phase this means sudden death procs

#

as Sudden death gives you a free execute

arctic fjord
#

so I press slam as a filler, even if I could use execute, but none of the 3 conditions are met?

minor gust
#

if you are not in execute phase yes

#

only use a sudden death proc if any one of those 3 conditionals are met
