proud remnant

ahhh yeah thats prob it

#

was driving me nutty lol

pale glade
#

yeah, im not a big trinket haver so still only have my 639 mark. im running double passives this week because the desync is annoying

manic pasture
#

What's the string to sim races

rose matrix
#

How important is rend in aoe?

compact geyser
#

its definitely somewhere between the top and bottom of the priority list

rare kite
hot cypress
#

Anyone else keep having the citizens in Operation Mechagon just before the stealth area randomly aggro on you?

#

Not even targetting them, hand off my keyboard using auto run I still get their aggro for some reason

compact geyser
#

do u have something still ticking that gives off a damage aura ? i forget to cancel immo aura on dh sometimes and it will pull them

hot cypress
#

Not that I'm aware of

ebon fern
#

Im kinda shocked that the 9950x3d is idling at a lower temp than the 7600x

#

How difficult is unholy compared to arms

muted iron
#

hi, anyone have a kick macro?

lean geode
lean geode
#

Assuming you mean in M+

#

Arms in raid gets a little more complicated

maiden notch
#

I actually think arms in raid is the simpler spec. Actually colossus is more complicated.

lean geode
#

Colossus is pretty damn simple with that build in M+

#

Obviously there are always tiny optimizations you can do, but you can get really good results with really little effort

maiden notch
#

Thank you I am very aware how to play warrior.

I am confident enough to say that arms is more difficult to pull off in m+, than slayer raid build.

I just wanna know how difficult uh is, cuz I am thinking of rolling to a fotm sidekick

#

Not gonna go over the struggle to pug season title again on a horrible class

thick kelp
#

go ask dk discord then idk

maiden notch
#

Dk‘s will say surely that their dk is 9.5/10

#

That’s literally what my guilds dk did

silk spade
maiden notch
#

While arms being a 7 at most

#

That’s why I rather ask my fellow brothers in arms

#

how can i cancel Demolish's channeling if I want to?

#

Respectfully, it sounds like you already made up your mind about playing udk

#

thanks

maiden notch
lean geode
#

Also respectfully, if you're trying to push title then you should probably not be concerned with how easy your class is

lean geode
maiden notch
#

Respectfully, you are interpreting stuff that never was said.

I said that I don’t wanna struggle again with a class that isn’t catching any invites. And wanted to figure how difficult it is to learn unholy and how hard it is compared to something like arms.

thick kelp
#

Unholy is mega ez

#

this current iteration

#

you press cds into spamming one button

#

and spending rp occasionally

latent moss
#

bloodsurge fucks

#

helps with exhil blows rng

#

playing slots and getting 4 ms in a row

#

cleave ms ms cleave ms ms type shit

thick kelp
#

what about cleave cleave cleave cleave cleave ms op cleave

latent moss
#

cleave is 20 rage chatting

#

thoughts walhe

#

mortal strike

#

30% crit

#

not a single crit

#

12 casts

i wanted to open someones skull

177300

lean geode
halcyon valve
#

but yeah lowkey, dreadnaught kinda decent in a premade group with big pulls, did like 55% of overpower direct damage

#

its not much damage, but more than strength of arms would have done

latent moss
#

yeah but less than demolish

#

prioing ms gives a fuck ton of colossal might stacks

#

and am cdr

halcyon valve
#

yeah i know

#

what do you think im pressing

#

im not prioritising OP in my rotation

#

but when you actually do press it because other stuff is on cd, dreadnaught does okay damage

latent moss
#

ye but its meaningless anyway

#

10t and st

#

5 min both

#

im fairly certain the apl doesnt prio op either

#

nvm it prios it

#

will adjust and check

ripe field
#

does the arms colo priority order hold while Colossal Might is < 10 and big CDs are up?

halcyon valve
#

for some fucking reason my trinkets cd is fucked up tho

#

1:30 cooldown, macrod with avatar, comes off cd 4 seconds AFTER avatar wtf

ripe field
#

basically is it worth throwing a MS in when you might normally hit Overpower

latent moss
#

ye its affix i think

ripe field
#

to reach 10 Colossal might more quickly

thick kelp
#

Rota is cleave ms op

#

regardless of dn

latent moss
#

i op over ms if i have a big cd cleave coming up

#

and i wanna buff it as much as possibl

#

with mbg and mp

thick kelp
#

yeye but general

#

its thag

latent moss
#

ye

#

so much simpler

#

than op if sifhifhsdidsjif tc if uidsghsdhgisdh ms if dshguoishguisd

ripe field
#

:| do what now

#

ok im tracking

latent moss
#

in aoe

#

cleave>ms>op

#

on st ms>op>execute if in execute>slam

ripe field
#

right, i was thinking that with Warbreaker, 10% from demolish, 30% from Ravager that counts as a big Cleave window

quasi torrent
latent moss
#

im sorry 8

ripe field
#

but its only specific Cleaves like after Sweeping Strikes expires that its worth OP over MS?

tacit crystal
latent moss
#

yes its cause of collateral damage

#

@thick kelp ms>op even with dn

#

hoooly gainz

thick kelp
#

ye i told u

#

regardless of dn or not

#

always cleave ms op

latent moss
#

ye i knew that u found it but i was just surprised its not in the apl im using latest i think

#

also save me from 658 weapon

thick kelp
#

fishy just tested it today

#

so thats why xdd

latent moss
#

ah fair

#

i never found it logical to op>ms as colossus

thick kelp
#

it was logical when ravager and ss was bugged

#

but now that its not its xdd

latent moss
#

ye thats true as well

#

ms crits with ss up

#

4 stacks

#

cinema

#

exhil blows procs

#

crits again on both targets

#

suddenly at 8 stacks

#

DN was better value with the old sim as it had higher uptime on max stacks of CM where the ravager bug was fixed in prepatch (wasn't aware)(at least was told it was fixed then) so its been removed now. MS stocks up

ebon fern
#

Why are arms and fury doing so much st damage right now?

#

Good tier set? Buffs before patch that i missed?

unborn canyon
#

Cause blizzard felt bad about last season

latent moss
unborn canyon
#

Yeah, big tuning

latent moss
#

ms got buffed by 66% for example

ebon fern
#

Holy shit, 66%??

#

That is utterly insane

latent moss
#

ye it absolutely fucks

#

now

unborn canyon
#

Tho that with a nerf to the op buff right?

ebon fern
#

You sure about that?

#

66% seems like an insane number

latent moss
#

no thats pre 5% aura nerf

latent moss
#

ms was seriously down bad

ebon fern
#

I don't like how they removed execute interactions for colossus though

latent moss
#

i like it

#

keep gameplay styles separate

#

colossus is basically sl arms on steroids

ebon fern
#

If you mean worse then yes, going all the way to the other side and basically ignoring exe is not good

latent moss
#

i mean u dont ignore it

#

with the st build u press it all the time in exe

unborn canyon
#

You definitely press execute a lot in ST

unreal rover
#

If everything is on cooldown, and I have a choice of pressing Execute or Slam, What do I choose? If Execute does almost double the damage of Slam even at 20 rage, Why would I slam to fill? (This is ST on Slayer btw)

unborn canyon
#

Execute

unreal rover
#

That's what I thought! But the guide says otherwise, just curious your guys thoughts on it

latent moss
#

there is an optimization

#

to not cast sd even with nothing else

unborn canyon
#

Wait, is this in execute phase?

unreal rover
#

Outside the Execute phase, but using Sudden Death

latent moss
#

u shouldnt

unreal rover
#

So everything is on CD, and I can either Execute or Slam - What do?

unborn canyon
#

Ah okay, delay it to optimize jug stacks

latent moss
#

^

unreal rover
#

So it's about keeping Jug rolling

latent moss
#

basically yeah

unborn canyon
#

You press if you have 2 sds

#

Or to maintain jug

latent moss
#

2 sds sd falling off jugg falling off 3 marked for execution stacks

silk dove
#

In mythic dungeons if you don't play executioner's precision you only press exec to reset overpower ?

latent moss
unreal rover
#

If Exe does double the damage of Slam, it's still only used under certain conditions, rather than to fill if avaliable?

silk dove
latent moss
unreal rover
#

Understood, Thank you

unborn canyon
#

You want to keep jug going as long as possible

latent moss
#

jugg should be permanent

unborn canyon
#

Feels good to make it to execute already with 15 stacks of jug

latent moss
#

or highee duration

unborn canyon
#

That, or just buff execute and remove it

latent moss
unborn canyon
#

Should be 20 seconds like prots

latent moss
unborn canyon
#

That hurts me so much when it happens

latent moss
#

i love it

unborn canyon
#

We love gambling tho

latent moss
#

makes me want to destroy my monitor

#

eat my keyboard

unborn canyon
#

Tier set gambling, SD gambling

latent moss
#

tierset gambling is cinema

unborn canyon
#

While ranged specs get jackpot with their main CDs always

#

Fake gambling for them

quasi torrent
latent moss
#

that would go so hard

#

nerf it a bit idc

unborn canyon
#

Yeah

shadow ibex
#

i dont wanna cast a button 15 times so it does dam please

unborn canyon
#

Or just make it take less stacks

shadow ibex
#

execute tooltip without jugg stacks is fucking anemic

unborn canyon
#

Ye

pliant smelt
#

Is it worth using ROar during a ST opener? I noticed a few logs they dont use it at all until a bit later.

shadow ibex
#

whenever i exe in m+ as colossus i hate myself

#

seeing myself at 110 rage and 10 years of warrior brain thinks spend that shit

#

no no no no do not press that button

#

overpower the enemy instead

#

need to get my tesla robot to slap me every exe cast

unborn canyon
#

Just change the icon of op to execute

shadow ibex
#

i saw that

#

and it would have been valid in s2

#

i miss when IP was just a 40 rage OP bedge

unborn canyon
#

Lmao

shadow ibex
#

if you want real pain look at pvp tooltips for exe and slam

#

one cost 40 btw

unborn canyon
#

Bro wtf

shadow ibex
#

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAP

unborn canyon
#

Pvp is so cooked

shadow ibex
#

no reason to press it

unborn canyon
#

Yeah, lmao

shadow ibex
#

it has some more built in crit dam depending on talents

#

but crushing force is 10% for slam

unborn canyon
#

Still

shadow ibex
#

and thats like 80% of what exe would get

unborn canyon
#

Wild

shadow ibex
#

if you went full ham

#

yea its bad

#

this guy knew

#

trade chat prophet

unborn canyon
#

They should make jug give 3 stacks in pvp, and permanent in combat

shadow ibex
#

i really dont know how that even happened

#

its a 40 rage button lmao

#

its fuckin hilarious tho

unborn canyon
#

Yeah, I don't know how pvp still exists too

#

Doesn't even have a vault slot at this point

shadow ibex
#

arms is reliable in 2s that with half a brain you can get w/e appearance

finite ginkgo
#

with blademasters, do we use sweeping after the sweeping from avatar run off?

shadow ibex
#

you can push to 2100 or 2200 and have a good time but after that

#

probably gonna get a lil toxic and sweatier than i like

#

you have to cast your real sweep first

#

p sure avatar sweep into real sweep makes avatar sweep end

#

but real sweep into avatar sweep provides proper extension so 23 secs of SS

finite ginkgo
#

I mean dont we want to end it twice for collateral?

shadow ibex
#

i rather extend and build bigger and get it on cooldown cuz when the long one ends it'll be up again in 7 seconds

#

most of the value is that cleave CDR tho

#

kinda silly just cleave x cleave x but cleave fucks

strange perch
#

Is there something that can make the nameplate of a pack in m+ have an effect on it or something if rend is applied?

#

I noticed an m+ wa i have kind of 'highlights' the add that grows bigger on motherlode 2nd boss for example

#

something similar

ebon fern
#

Be nice if warbreaker and blunt was not a choice node

#

Also, wtf is that warbreaker animation?

#

Awful

shadow ibex
#

maybe all trinkets wont be shit now

that blackwater pirate is nuts on st

#

Can't imagine any of the trinket buffs change our bis but we wait and see okayge

shadow ibex
#

i doubt it

#

more so people arent using old season shit

or something champ v hero because the effect is just awful

Did you know about Blackwater pirate trinket?

Yes

@astral talon in pvp do i press exe or slam

You can just look at the tooltip

I posted it earlier

even on 14s 15s

16s

naive breach
#

yeah but you take your collateral with you to the next pack ye

#

time to BONK

latent moss
#

i played a bit with blademasters

#

on paper it should be a lot more dps

#

cause more cleave

#

but nah

#
  • reck feels so good on opener
shadow ibex
#

I been playing it in like 90% of runs

#

As long as you don't cancel a sweeping its dope

And buff, ye

But slam was doing same or more dmg for a while, or still is, I dunno i dont do warr pvp xD

I was hoping for bs buff

#

Cope

minor gust
#

Well it's official Blizz approves of ravager slayer

shadow ibex
#

I think simpler

#

Confusing ravager with something else like warbringer

minor gust
#

Genuinely surprised they didn't react at all seeing ravager Slayer logs show up. Guess it's because no one played it in rwf

shadow ibex
#

I thought I saw a ravager on mug but mighta been prot

#

Idk what col prot plays tbh

minor gust
#

Prot plays ravager

proud remnant
#

Slayer needed some substantial bladestorm buffs to make it somewhat viable in M+ crazy how they keep missing the mark there. Open up additional play styles!

shadow ibex
#

Insert happy with warrior

minor gust
#

It's not about M+ we needed the bladestorm buffs because it's fucking viable to take Ravager on slayer

#

Personally I think it's fine that Slayer is the raid spec and Colossus is the M+ spec

chilly isle
minor gust
#

In mythic yeah there's none but there was quite a few in heroic and normal

naive breach
minor gust
#

Shouldn't have to be mythic to raise some alarm bells

sage badge
chilly isle
#

People play all kinds of talents in heroic

minor gust
#

Yeah but Slayer is designed around BS talent literally do not work if you play ravager

#

That is a major problem

#

That ravager is even viable

random ibex
#

are the trinket buffs live?

minor gust
#

Unless things change I still plan on playing ravager on Bandit and Mugzee when we get there

rose matrix
#

Is it worth holding Ravager for a bit for Warbreak or should you just send it

minor gust
#

Hold till Warbreaker is up

sup frozenbozo

Hi Coatsman

brittle fiber
#

real shit

random ibex
#

when is ravager better than BS?

brittle fiber
minor gust
#

When you care about execute damage

random ibex
#

?? i simmed it last week and it was a loss

minor gust
#

I would play it on any fight that lusts in execute

random ibex
#

ok

#

so basically current just mugzee heroic

#

for us

minor gust
#

If you guys are still lusting in execute sure.

brittle fiber
#

we were like 40 seconds ahead in damage this reset

minor gust
#

Depends on the guild some ppl are still progging or still need lust there

when we progged it I played fury

just to prot

so our AoE prio in M+ is Cleave>MS>OP basically right? even during SS?

shadow ibex
#

yes

#

2 target sweeping

#

swap cleave with OP

#

p sure

viscid nest
#

cleave is just a filler basically in 2T right?

#

with SS

shadow ibex
#

yea

#

2 target colossus with BL feels

#

i lived one of those hype hustle things getting the achievement on rik reverb

#

is this the power of plate privilege

ebon fern
#

Arms right now is pretty nice, but at this point i can definitely say that i preferred the df version, just add ravager to df arms and it's really good to me

latent moss
#

well

#

ms>op>cleave if no mp>slam>cleave

#

same rota as st

#

cleave if no mp is not a big optimization

#

if u cba with it dont do it

latent moss
#

s3 jugg was so fun but rng

#

massive tclap was peak

ebon fern
#

Are you talking about the s3 set for df? Yea i liked that a lot

#

Made execute actually good in aoe, at least sudden death

#

They should bring it back as a talent

latent moss
#

ye s3 df

#

s2 sks was the most fun for me

#

totem in bracken?

#

sks explosion

Does anyone know why the opportunity graphic from an overpower reset keeps going away like a second after it pops up? I still have the buff but not the graphic

vast surge
#

I miss when warlord’s torment interacted with CS

Also why can’t we have the bursty version of bladestorm and does demolish still fail. Stupid ability.

magic canopy
#

its weird but its why we use a WA for it

shrewd hound
#

thats really fucking annoying

no sims for the trinkets buffs yet right

smoky kayak

you can sim it yourself

would it be nice if they also adjusted it to fit with opportunist yeah

but its blizz what can we do

#

out of curiosity, what are people doing on ST dummies at 660?

#

after a few mins

open ingot
#

Just sim it

#

I only play arms m+ and not true st talents but im doing 2mil in m+ spec

#

With around 660

strange perch
#

during execute phase, why are we not supposed to use mortal strike during ravager?

Because unhinged eats the ep stacks.

So might as well just build more.

#

Hey guys, quick question, let's say you had bleeds on the target and then cds come up (avatar, csmash) and you pop them. Do you reapply bleeds after cd or they automatically benefit from the cds?

Automatically

I don't know why i've had this notion in my head that i have to reapply

right

cyan oriole
#

did raidbots update or did the trinket tuning changes not do anything at all

severe crag
#

Probably haven't updated it all yet.

#

But no idea

lone fable
#

why do we take executioners precision and finishing blows instead of 2/2 bloodborne in m+?
only for better single target dmg?

do we use execute in aoe scenarios, or only if nothing better to press?

minor gust
#

not many people take EP and FB right now most are running 2/2 BB or 1 BB/Bloodsurge

lone fable
#

oh ok? i thought archon pulls the talents, most ppl use?

minor gust
#

I guess I shouldnt say most then my bad. People are just copying builds from guides.

#

The idea to drop EP and FB was something that came after the patch

brisk bridge
#

Not sure why would you need Bloodsurge

#

im swimming in rage to the point that I am taking Ignore Pain

minor gust
#

as people realized how little we press execute with the colossus M+ build

brisk bridge
#

With how the set item works and how Execute got nerfed with its interaction with Demolish

#

EP can be thrown away

#

BB is very good on higher keys where fights are longer

minor gust
# brisk bridge Not sure why would you need Bloodsurge

the 2 BB points arent anything major very minor flex points. The idea for Bloodsurge is to help cover the rare moments you rage starve due to good rng with EB resets and a lack of skyfury in the grp if you dont have a shaman

brisk bridge
#

I guess its becuase of my very high Ilvl. If in the very rare chance i do run out of rage, I just step back and Charge back in

minor gust
#

I did say it was rare

#

basically only happens when you have a mix of good and bad rng

brisk bridge
#

But in the grand scheme of things, its very moot and in the difference of arouns 1%

finite copper
#

Hey team, I havnt done enough testing, just checking if some1 else has. Execute phase, if I luck out on 4 set with 6+ stacks, do I skip overpower if possible? Im not currently tracking it but should I be

brisk bridge
#

I do disagree about Blademaster Torment being bad tho. The higher my crit goes up, the less value I get from Warlords torment

boreal quartz
#

Psure finishing blows is better than bloodsurge if ur not going BB

#

For more rage in st with EP

minor gust
#

you dont really take EP anymore

#

you hit exe like 20 times in a key

brisk bridge
#

at 4 Set, I find Overpower being more valuable press over Execute. But in not that big. if You have EP just make sure you have 2 stacks OP and EP

minor gust
boreal quartz
#

more st more fun

brisk bridge
#

Agreed. It really depends on external factors. In a comp where you have more Prio damage members, Blade master will give you more DPS overall

minor gust
#

yeah if you got some ST blasters in your grp I can see Blademasters being justified

boreal quartz
#

i also dont like playing bmaster xdd

brisk bridge
#

But if you sole obsessions is just overall DPS

#

BM will always give more value over Warmaster

minor gust
# boreal quartz i like EP + reck proc + FB

I like EP too but with execute just being a slam replacement to colossus most of the time you end a key with very few execute casts. Just kinda makes EP feel like poo and you would rather have BB

brisk bridge
#

Because Execute is poo in M+

minor gust
#

for colossus yes

brisk bridge
#

and the only reason you want to press it is if you took EP. which is only valuable in ST fights

boreal quartz
#

yep and i take EP cuz i like st

minor gust
#

Even with EP Fishy told me execute is still just a slam replacement so its not even like your doing the EP rotation

brisk bridge
#

Then press Execute

minor gust
brisk bridge
#

Execute has always been a slam replacement

brisk bridge
#

(at least in the last 2 expacs)

boreal quartz

which is fun to me

Basically you just press Execute while waiting for mortal

Anyone here dont press Rend if you can Mortal, and OP even if Rend DOT was already out?

brisk bridge

I played last patch

minor gust
#

sounds like you didnt play arms then

#

unless you only did keys

brisk bridge
#

So you are suggesting that last patch, Execute was more valuble than Mortal Strike?

minor gust
#

yes

thick kelp
#

yes

boreal quartz
#

very much so

brisk bridge
#

TBF I did mostly keys haha!

boreal quartz
#

ye raid build

brisk bridge
#

OK i guess thats fair.

boreal quartz
#

ignored MS till 2EP2LB

minor gust
#

well in raid you only ever hit MS unless you had 2 stacks of EP and 2 LB

brisk bridge
#

I mainly used Fury last season

boreal quartz
#

can tell ratge

brisk bridge
#

coz arms was kinda trashy

boreal quartz
#

historically arms execute is either unused or spammed

#

like s2 df id call a middle ground

brisk bridge
#

I can vaguely remember arms talents last season. WHy was Execute more valuable to press?

minor gust
#

because MS was piss weak

boreal quartz
#

tier set

flat willow
#

wait even with EP execute is a slam replacement?

boreal quartz
flat willow
#

aaaaaaaaaaaaa

minor gust
#

if you are playing colossus

boreal quartz
#

since it doesnt stack

#

the thing

#

WONDERFUL change btw

flat willow
#

time to remove this trash talent

minor gust
#

yee thats why ppl are dropping EP in favor of BB

#

and if you dont run out of rage in execute because you dont press execute no reason to take FB aswell

brisk bridge
#

What I do hate about the execute right now is that it didnt sound like Shadowlands Execute where it was chonky

minor gust
#

hence double BB or 1 BB/Bloodsurge

fast forge
#

id take visons over islands/delves/torgast/the hourly events we have had last 2 xpacs that you do once a week

#

like tf was that thing in s3 DF where you followed that tree around

#

idk visons were chill, how they work with coming back and the new cloak and how its designed, if there is a grind again or how you will cost to enter them will determine how enjoyable they are

minor gust
#

lol yeah thats just something Blizz really struggles on. Becuase how complex M+ and raiding has become and the massive skill diff between the top end and bottom end they really struggle with making engaging for fun content for all players

fast forge
#

I dont mind visons being difficult with a learning curve

#

I prefer that kind of weekly content over the trival "ive got to get this done for the week" kinda stuff we have currently

#

I like that the undermine weekly stuff is quick too do

#

but im falling asleep after doing a theater troupe

doesnt help most of the events like theater troupe you can just straight up afk the whole time and still be rewarded

other than in st where ur just refreshing in pandemic window u shouldnt need to worry about it in big packs because its being applied through clap. and even with the 5 target cap each use of thunderclap will apply it to another random 5 targets so its going to be up regardless. i think its more important to track deep wounds and colossus debuffs on mobs in larger packs since thats where xtra damage taken comes into play

today is a good day

halcyon breach
#

Looking now I can find a singular log, and it at least seems to show

#

But it's hard to verify on a log which of the two it spawns

flat willow
#

because blizzard didn't do a collateral nerf to arms while nerfing prot colossus

#

if it was season 1 we'd be cooked

daring heron
#

if it was s1 they'd prolly nerf prot by nerfing demolish but forget that arms also uses demolish

halcyon breach
#

Nvm I found a log where he used it 3 times, but it doesn't seem to appear in his damage breakdown

#

(Kinda awful to look on phone)

daring heron
#

exactly why i didnt want to try and find it myself

#

but you did it anyway, my man

halcyon breach

There is also just a chance he somehow died before hitting a single time, but that sounds unlikely

Hello guys a quick question, is noggerfogger ultimate deluxe a simbait or legit?

hollow plover
#

you summon a dude that either buffs you or deals decent damage

dawn prairie
#

i think that trinket is better for range classes

sacred zodiac
hollow plover
#

which one am i thinkin of then

sacred zodiac
#

probably sigil

hollow plover
#

oh yea maybe

eager sigil
#

Yea sigil does that

sacred zodiac
#

noggenfogger is weird though it does spawn a guy that melees and it does hit quite hard but he can die and half the time it doesnt attribute the damage to you

hollow plover
#

then it might be simbait actually

#

and i baited neki

#

sry bout that @lime heath

sacred zodiac
#

idk depends how you define simbait

#

i dont know if he actually dies commonly shrug

hollow plover
#

Generally, simbait is something that doesn't easily apply its potential into combat

#

like that caster barrel trinket

#

cause not all specs can pop it

#

that easily

sacred zodiac
#

it might undersim a bit cause it pops the trinket first then bis might be better the other way around idk

lime heath
#

Aight thanks guys i guess ill just wait for logs okayge

eager sigil
#

Our mage just pops all of them and priest cry about not getting twist of fate xdd

Unless you understand how to keep high uptime in mythic+ (and the overwhelming majority of people do not, plus this dungeon pool is kinda ass for it) then it’s gonna sim high and offer you very little benefit in reality

#

That’s the kinda shit that is real simbait

sacred zodiac
#

i assume you mean kezan

#

and no one is expecting it to do well in m+ ye

Quick question because I can't seem to find any sheet or info on it. are there any dungeon/raid mechanics currently that we can immune with "die by the sword"? Like Sergeant Shaynemail's Lunging strike for example ?

wispy escarp

You can parry the big whirlwinds that the mini bosses and the gladiator boss in theater of pain. But the minis change abilities I think weekly. You can also parry the charge in dfc first boss.

Is arms easier to play than fury in raid?

#

No

#

Fury is easier

#

Get wa archie provided and fury goes kaching

golden zinc

#

then again, most of the top end trinkets are iffy in actual gameplay

  • kezan doesn't work as well with short combat or downtime between pulls
  • pacemaker doesn't work well with downtime in combat or between pulls
  • noggenfogger requires the npc not to be dumb
  • house of cards has a shard cd with Slots
    etc
smoky kayak
slow saddle
#

It helped my fury play

#

I still botch clikin bt at a bit low% at time

#

But its rly not to punishin

smoky kayak
# slow saddle Fury is easier

I actually think Arms is easier tbf, Fury "bounces" between actions a lot more (especially during Reck) and Double Down procs can be hard to predict

Arms is like 3 static buttons, the only thing you need to worry about happening suddenly is SD (which there's also a kaching WA for)

slow saddle
#

Spend rage send cds try to wait for kachin ans fury pretty much slaps

slow saddle
#

When badluck charlie hits me at 45%

ripe quartz
#

Isn't fury 3 buttons too?

smoky kayak
#

that I agree, Juggernaut is more punishing for sure

smoky kayak
slow saddle
#

Tbf neither is hafd

smoky kayak
#

pre-execute Arms practically never deviates from MS > OP > Slam

slow saddle
#

But the 15 stacks into execute dream

golden zinc
#

What does static mean? Just press on cd when it lights up?

smoky kayak
#

static means unchaninging, it's a very straightforward priority

golden zinc
#

I see

smoky kayak
#

e.g. Arms is never going to prioritize Slam over OP or MS
Fury is constantly deciding whether it should use RB right now, or Rampage right now, or BT right now, or whatever

#

likewise

  • the "kaching" you get for Arms (with Sudden Death) is almost gauranteed to be your #1 prio when it happens
  • the "kaching" you get for Fury (with Bloodthist) is not
#

Fury just has more moving parts atm

golden zinc
#

Ah I see. I was playing fury for fun and I didn’t know you had to decide. I was just pressing whatever lights up and alternating between them so each button gets pressed to spread the love

smoky kayak
#

but I do agree that Arms is more punishing if Juggernaut falls

slow saddle
#

Which u cant always control

smoky kayak
#

which makes it frustrating

golden zinc
#

Sometimes 3 buttons light up in fury

#

And idk what to press

slow saddle
#

Rb if below 100

#

Ramp if above

golden zinc
#

Blood thirst, rampage, and another one lights up at the same time

slow saddle
#

Bt if above 85% crit

smoky kayak
#

exactly; neither rotation is particularly overladen with buttons, but Fury definitely gets a lot more jumbled

#

whereas Arms priority is always pretty straightforward

slow saddle
#

Sd if 2 stacks

ripe quartz
#

Isn't oportunist proc goes before than OP? Or doesn't matter that much and we can go ms>op?

smoky kayak
#

Opportunist really doesn't matter tbh

slow saddle
#

Op > ms if oppertunist no?

#

Unless 2 ops on the ms

smoky kayak
#

it's like a 0.1% optimization, not even worth tracking

ripe quartz
#

Lol fuck it then

#

I'll remove op glow from my aura then

#

Ty archi

smoky kayak
#

and if you have a WA already setup to alert you for it, sure why not

slow saddle
#

Isnt it just on op resets?

#

So if slam or ms reset op send op?

smoky kayak
#

more or less; you still use it behind cooldowns and Sudden Death, but otherwise yeah

#

Difference of if you care about opportunist or not

#

when I ran it at the start of the season (in my own gear) it was around 0.1-0.2

lament ridge

Ah, perfect.

ripe quartz
smoky kayak
#

so ymmv

fresh spire
#

Think its more important in execute than >35%

ripe quartz
fresh spire
#

as the weaving makes for more fatter executes/rage starving

smoky kayak
#

I find it easier to use OP sub 35% since there's less going on in Execute

#

but there's also only like 2 fights this matters on

#

Well 3, Bandit can go either way

ripe quartz
#

What should I do to run my char with that change?

lean geode
#

Is there a way to sim a strict MS > exe > exe > OP > MS rotation <35% instead of a prio list, and compare that to the regular APL?

Or maybe more of a MS > ( 2 exe + 1 OP in any order) > MS
