stupid question but can u check for rotational error on dummys? Single target
im still not a 100% certain what to press for example in execute phase when certain conditions are met
Yes you can then
okay wonderful thanks
I think details auto logs dummy details
Where donyoubget the noggenfogger thing
is this some kind of bait? Noggenfogger above Amplifier? wut
20% buffs to trinkets does things
fuck demolish
guess i will change pacemaker for house of cards, once i get it, seems to be the play now
it does say it
I am expecting a nerf to noggenfogger ๐๏ธ
the nerf will be the pirate has less hp so he dies faster ๐
wonder if bis will make hoc below mechano
hmm, might be
i think you only hold ravager for cs
any confirmers
correct
its fun
are hotfixes already added to raidbots?
except when i drop a 12 stack jug 5 seconds before another sudden death proc
with how bad BS is I feel terrible pressing it in Exe with ravager its nice to know I can keep playing the game and not lose dmg
surely next patch Jugg will get condensed down
surely this time

playing ravager makes that feeling infinitely worse than bs imo
why your doing what BS can not pressing your really strong core buttons
bc in theory i should have 10 more seconds every 90 that i didnt have before where i could press execute
or worth of ability pressing to get sd
Do we get more value from second potion if we use during lust or during 15 stacks jugg?
how do you guys manage to maintain jugg early before execute window
i seem to struggle keeping it stacked early on encounters
waiting to last second of jug/sd
ah okay so you have to squeeze every second out of it
i usually refresh around the 3 sec mark
my b then, i've been holding it for avatar
i will more freely send
ravager awayyy
What helped me is a weakaura they basically tells me to press it with different conditions.
And i've been getting to 15 stacks before execute, it also depends on luck ofcourse.
if i remember correctly if the fights shorter then 5 minutes it's better to pot in execute. let me check that for you.
not if you are lusting on pull
lmao, just got one from the 5 delve weekly
this can be hero track with map from delve too?
Anyone having their ravager wa telling them they have it available a few seconds before it is? I tried a couple different ones and they're all doing it.
Wondering if it's related to the affix this week
my bracers are 645 with socket and my neck is 629. would you guys advise crafting neck second instead of bracer?
you cant put embelish on neck?
true i suppose
ye
though should i just make it with my runed crest from quest or spend another 60 gilded?
you dont have crafted weapon right?
no
you should be able to farm a better neck
keg?
at which point your crafting question would be very different
yeah mines doing that too
literally any 640+ neck would be better than a bis statted 629
oh yea, tell me about it 
oh yeah ik but i meant just crafting wise rn
right this second, yes you would gain more making a neck
but if you just farmed out a neck, then context of that question would change
true i suppose so for the moment wrists would still be by best option
thing about crafting wrists is that it's a good piece to socket early (if you happen to get a bad early vault like I always seem to), but yours already have a socket, so it may be worth holding off
idk your overall gear, just saying there are a lot of angles to consider; belt/boot isn't a bad craft either
some people even went for helm/leg early, but I wouldn't advise that unless you have a really good idea of your prog and what items you expect to get out of raid
Chest is an oddly competitive choice this season, as long as you don't get one out of vault, since the only raid ones come from Mugz
tbh my gear is pretty ass atm
boots would be the biggest upgrade right at this moment
except weapon where i have 2 hero circuit breakers
i dont have the addon for displaying ilvl of gear next to it so dont see much point in posting a SH
I have a question, if MS resets itself on use, and it procs Opportunist too, i press MS or OP before MS to consume Opportunist?
Someone's stuck in TOP hell 
then why the fck you farm ToP instead of Floodgate?
11 loot vs 6
This is why you just get the trinket in your mythic vault and you never need to do it again ๐
I just started m+ this week on my warrior
Slacker 
I took 2 weeks off for season launch and didnt feel like it at all
i took weapon over trinket

i decide to try arms on a boss. execute gets parried so i lose my jugg stacks
this spec is ass
i get tilted whenever i hear that parry sound now
love it
bless trickster, havnt had my warbreaker parry mp3 wa proc yet
I think I'd just quit the game after that.
yea if i had 3 CS parried in a single pull
i would wipe the raid
there's no way that pull isnt cursed by some eldritch horror just get it out the way so others dont suffer
arms warrior vs white parry opener in SL
playing col on silken and get first auto parried
no buttons allowed
you got 20 from charge so you can rend
but next auto is 26
you cant MS

Hey people ! someone can link me the REND weak aura update ? thank you ๐
https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/warrior/arms/slayer/DAOAUVFRFQhIVIpRUBBOVVEVURVFQkVQFQCEEEFVVUBV has any1 here tried this build before?
slayer is pretty bad in aoe
have the theory crafters finished testing the new trinkets yet has anything changed?
is this weapon good? ๐ฎ
Don't think so
do you ONLY overpower with opportunist active or can i press it when there's nothing else to press besides slam?
yes you can press it
You press it everytime you can't mortal strike
i mainly play protection but i wanna do arms on the side. should i craft a 675 crit/haste back piece or ring?
which is better value
the shitty thing about rings is it gives no strength
but nicer secondary stats
questionable whether you wanna craft either of those slots at 675 right now
why's that?
those also happen to be my only two champion gear pieces
spending 60 gilded on your lowest budget slot is a bit silly and crafting ring kinda locks you into cycres/crafted ring for a long time which locks down your options a lot
ring craft can be fine its technically correct for my character right now but i am repulsed by it
i think at this point i'm just trying to get rid of my champion pieces. crit/haste is nice because prot wants those stats too. unlike fury (haste/mastery)
why do you care about them being champion pices tho
do you have spare gilded crests and all of your hc track pieces upgraded to max?
my hero pieces are all 4/6. and i have a crafted neck + prot shield. i haven't really spent any glided besides those two crafted
you do see how all your hc track pieces are equivalent to champion track pieces rn ye
yea i mean i dont really know what to do yet. i'm starting to tank 10's so i wont get any myth vault till next week
i dont wanna spend glided on hero gear until i get myth track but maybe i shouldnt wait for that
2 canceled demos 
I spend gilded crests on whatever gets me cooler mog colors sooner
why not craft a mythic offpiece
which slot do you recommend?
it's not that simple
i guess my choices are either belt/back/wrist/feet/ring
i guess i'm holding off on these slots incase i get myth track tier piece
but you have no avenue of getting myth tier until whenever you start doing 10s
idk its kind of fair enough for you to just go for biggest number or biggest satisfaction here
yea i'm starting to do 10's this week
Glove is as good as Boot/Belt
can you stop lying on the internet
and pointing out my foolishness
Am I supposed to have a spark fragment in my bag this week or not?
or do you get both of them on the same week
you should have one half right now
if you dont have it you havent done the weekly quest for it
which weekly is it? feel like I've done them all
the 5 delves iirc
definitely did that but I''ve got no fragment
did you check your reagent bank?
why did i just hear the fire brigade?
maybe ur pants are also burning
hm???
worst case, you should be able to get it as catch up next week, if you don't get it this week
On top of the new half we should be getting as well
For reference, I do have the new half spark this week, yet I've not done the weekly 5 delve quest. If you've not done them all, try and go do the rest of the pinnacle caches like from the 3 WQ open world quest, awakening the machine, or simply doing dungeons/raid
Manifesting arms pants build asap ๐
legs build = L
It's actually the 3 delve one from Bran. I did 5 without having noticed the 3 one from Brann
@untold trench this bdk having 663 gs dealt like 3 times less damage than u with 645
I died from cringe agro like 3 times
Do the pvp spark quest for half spark if you bout that life
the cooldown is proportional to the gcd no?
yes but gcd cant be lowered than a certain point
blademaster p much halves the cd i think. it'll be every other global
with enough haste buffs it can get nearly to the GCD or at least feels that way
Yes. Once you go beyond 100% haste, then it becomes wonky because GCD is capped to 0.75s but the cooldown of cleave will keep lowering.
Blademaster's Torment makes it so it's 2 GCDs in between.
interesting
personnal best in priory!! 3.86M overall! arms is fun as heck!!
ive been looking at the top arms warrior m+ logs
and a lot of them arent using cleave every other global during avatar
with blademasters torment
mythic rik reverb you save bladestorm for adds?
with lust ive had the CD be just a hair longer than GCD
like empty global for .1 seconds b4 cleave is ready again
well lust and iftk
quite a few helpers
It should be 2 gcds between.
Yeah, it gets quite annoying but it is what it is.
That's basically every other, I think. Cleave -> filler -> Cleave
yea i figured that's how blademaster is for most
every other GCD
get x2 demo casts before sweeping ends
just gotta crit many many MS
Is 3m overall DPS good for 650ilvl? Dunno if I'm slacking performance wise or doing okay
Your not gonna be able to tell from overall alone
guys, for pugging M+ is ascension a good embel? Or should i use something else on a weapon
it's not particularly great for m+ since downtime causes it to fall off, but all of the weapon embels are kind of messy in that regard
you can sim some different combinations on your own and see if there's anything you like though - easy to change on top gear
hm, i dont see where to add embelishment in Top Gear raidbots menu
If you have a crafted item, press the "+" on the crafted item and you can choose to add or remove any embellishment
If you don't have a crafted item already, use the search bar at the top of top gear
aah, ty
bro is evolving
it performs well enough? ๐
It's simple and consistent. Doesn't help with aoe, but arms doesn't really have an aoe problem.
About 2%~ on bosses, which is nice.
The embellishments as a whole are kinda w/e imo. If you want something consistent and applicable for both ST and aoe, can't go wrong with dusk/dawnthreads.
yeah, im switching my explorer 609 weapon for a 675 ๐
so for now it has to be the weapon embel
no idea cant be worse than 3pc tho
true
The haste it gives is certainly nice
Blessed weapon grip chads > Ascension cucks
now your stacks end at 2
and you get low value

when i was messing with it on ptr seemed to never proc and i just havent had it since to see if its still like 1 a minute
๐ช
Hey on sprocketmonger, does the knock back intermission last for a couple of seconds? I gated after he finish the cast and I get knock backed still after the gate.
how come in single target you wanna use demolish on cooldown, but during execute phase you use it during warbreaker?
generally when your in execute CS will have a lower cd due to the access of execute
the opportunity cost of casting demolish is a bit higher in execute
so holding demolish is less of a dps loss
so you can afford to hold it a bit longer
in M+ build tho especially with no EP I dont think it matters when you press demo prob better to do off cd unless WB is close
fuck EP
is there some deterministic way of farming funhouse lens or mechanocore? -- im seeing all the top warriors having it and ive done my 4 bountifuls and delvers for the week plus killed the underpin a few times without luck
all RNG
How good is the circlet for arms? If I get a ring the same ilvl to go along with a jastors, would that be better? Or is the answer to sim it?
If the question is about gear/stats the answer will always be sim
I miss the good ol days of bis lists. Lol
blindly following words>blindly following words
I mean if for whatever reason you hate simming BIS lists still exist
True
I dont understand the hate for simming I find it kinda fun. But to each their own
Just not super familiar with simming outside of just simming for what my dmg should be, just haven't taken the time to learn it.
its actually really easy to learn very simple. Just need to take the 5-10 minutes to learn
Spent so much time as enhance which was always just stack as much haste and mastery as possible. (I don't mythic raid so never had to do it hardcore)
real end game
squeezing everything out of your character
gets really fun once u have everything
running simc locally
like 200m iterations
(not that last part)
But you gotta get everything to get there, lol
you can add items to Top gear now so dont need to actually have the item
Interesting. I'll have to read up on it and watch a video or two
Any articles/videos you would suggest starting with?
Hope you find this video helpful. Thanks for watching!

I'm using a modified version of Atrocity's ...
can start with this but a lil out of date doesnt have the add item feature to it but thats easy
just use this to add an item
can find at the top of Top gear page
you know im suprised that didnt exist until today
Nice, thank you. I will watch that in the morning while I consume my hot caffinated bean water.
youd imagine this would be a thing long time ago
critcake so handsome
yeah seriously
i used to paste from wowhead
Wearing a turtle neck for a youtube video. Must be a classy guy.
hes a turtleneck main
Plus appearently plays warrior, so that tracks
Critcake is a great guy to learn warrior from
he doesnt make guides but hes pretty insightful and really good at it so can pick up some nice things by watching him play
Does he stream?
I'll have to check him out. Thank you!
does demolish benefit from sweeping strikes?
first 2 hits do
Been that way at least 6 months but shouldve been implemented way earlier
yeaht thats what i mean
youd imagien thats like the first thing you add
especially since gear compare is a thing
How does any optimized use of Cleave work? As a fury war thatโs intrigued by Arms Iโm just trying to learn some things
on cd
how do i do it locally
but it will be very slow
how lsow
u need a lot of cores
i dont think so
me when i have 4 cpu cores
question. im fury now and want to go to arms... my issue is my stats are kinda messed up lol. going to arms from fury im at like 18 crit 25 haste 45 mastery
is it chalked?
just get more crit
id always change my enchants from mastery to crit
money aint an issue
i think i got the neck from cinder
let me look
fuck gotta find another lol @tacit crystal
prio damage main
its still playable
Are we all in Crit/haste? See some ppl that enchant and use haste/mastery gear aswell but that might just be as they play as fury aswell?
Mastery is very good for arms aswell
in keys do you guys have separate binds for rend and clap? is it worth the tiny extra dmg on ST? ๐
One thing you can do, unless your already using this idea for hamstring, is macro charge and tend together and you will cast rend when in melee range
But it probably doesnโt matter that much
good idea ๐
.#showtooltip
/cast [harm] Charge
/cast Rend
My rend macro :).. Find it work out well.. Used it most for pvp at start and good now when you use clap more then rend.
noggenfogger trinket doin 30m ๐
Trinket is... My 639/626 setup sims higher then the shit trinkets i got so far and they are like 20 ilvl above ๐
S1 trinket
i'm like 30+ runs at this point
on ST or aoe?
can someone explain to me how cleave is in the same global as MS here? Am i missing something?
better picture for context sorry
unhinged
talent directly below bladestorm/ravager will tell you
yeah was comparing logs and those were at different times since i MS'd more than cleaved, wondering if thats whats throwing me off
just wondering are we trying to use cyrce's circlet? and if so what gems in the stat ones?
ty
so how are we supposed to use Best-in-slots if it shares cooldown with trinket?

So can we confirm arms is way better than fury currently in mythic +?
Mortal combo my beloved
yes
I just switched but my stats are a bit lopsided since I was fury haha @boreal quartz
both are as good, just depends what dung ure running
Curios about how long Cyrces Circlet will be in use I just simmed and another ring simmed better but many guides are saying its bis for Arms all through S2 any second opinions ? or just trust the simms
If it sims better it is better
Simple as that
sims and check if you have right gems in
For my mplus arms it's getting outsimmed by champ jastors andc658 ring but still bis for slayer
Yep checked all that with both rings it seemed I was haste starved so maybe thats why the non CCirclet simmed better
Juggernaut still good fort ST dungeons ? I mean theater and mecagone for example ?
hmm. collosus is so good
id cba to play jugger
top has sev bosses with adds
Hmm noggenfogger trinket feels like simbait
havent gotten more than 3% overall from it on mugzee
and 3% with 1500 crit ratin vs 4k str trinket
details is still fucked for it
one of the two ppl you can summon just doesnt get attributed to you idk if its tracked on logs either
you can just @ player macro that ye
in theory its the number the sim says
ok
i didnt end up using it on sprocketmonger prog since it also has health and can just die
and idk if it has the generous DRs other pets get on raid combat
yeah i havent noticed
im only using it tbh
coz i have shitty trinkets otherwise
nn to pretend anyting else ๐
took the spot of reverb ( on normal
so a heroic vs a normal
go get a pacemaker noober
u will NOT catch me using that dogass trinket
viscera on the other hand...
more than 1 target present trinket dead gg
become realistic
ratfang toxin
ratfang angle
its always a ratfang angle
im personally quite fond of goo-blin grenade
i wish they made a 2 set for 2 red buttons
i suggested this approximately 5 days ago
it wouldve been really funny ye
u can recalibrate it for mass destruction whatever that is
ok the same way you can recalibrate bis to be intellect
bro the tooltip on wowhead says the same thing
for both
Mister Lock-N-Stalk
Item Level 623
Binds when picked up
Unique-Equipped
Trinket
+1,341 Haste (0.00% @ L80)

Use: Recalibrate for Your spells and abilities have a high chance to lase your target for Precision Blasting, calling in Mister Lock-N-Stalk to deal 3981 Physical damage to your target. . (20 Sec Cooldown)
ass destruction
On wow armory it said Ass Destruction for a while ๐
noggen + goon is 15k loss for me
but its the turbo goon squad pirate crossover king equipment
gotta play goon for the lore
piratecore engaged
well only if u play well
if u play bad its a buff
!
if there's anything i could ask for it's to kick in demolish channel
holy moyl!!!!!
Gooning rn
Fact
critcake looks too clean and moisturized in his videos
distracts me from his gameplay
Lol
Deathcake
Does simcraft take the meta game into account correctly? It keeps telling me to use all green gems instead of one of each color
Also says green coz green worth more than 4 different?
meta gems are just shit
i mean the "special" effect
Yeah Iโm wondering if I should just follow the sims advice then and socket it for the main stat and ignore the special effect then
When I SS, should I prioritize cleave over MA?
waht is ma
mortal ache?
What are the main defensives for arms
dbts sr dstance
Heroic Leap & run
Can someone explain this to me? Why would i use sweeping strikes and then ravager > warbreaker > cleave? Am i not wasting three GCD's on skills that don't benefit com sweeping strikes? Since the tooltip says "Single target damaging abilities"?
Or is it to get the CD rolling faster? Is it really worth it?
In my mind it makes more sense to Ravager > warbreaker > cleave and only then sweeping strikes and demolish and the others... but maybe the math proves it wrong?
cleave does benefit from sweeping with FOB
also you lose a gcd when using sweep after warbreaker
u loose gcd of each cd regardless, u preffer loosing gcd of sweap over warbraker
Oh, that makes sense
Thanks
It's not really clear from the skill descriptions that cleave benefits from SS
only with fervor of battle tho
the slam when hitting 2 or more enemies with cleave benefits from the ss
not cleave itself
I see
also gives you stacks for collateral damage
I think that blizzard should update the tooltips of the skills that are changed from talents, For instance fervor of battle add to the cleave tooltip something like Talented: fervor of battle, followed by what fervor of battle does
After the original skill description of course
So makes it easier for new players to realize the interations the talents make with the skills
it would probably cost a raid tier to do that 
yeah could sometimes probably be a little more transparent
luckily we have discord for that
yeah, thanks again ๐
i think they could just make collat path down to fervor instead of it being weird choice node under fob
i dont think there's any world where you play fob but not collat for example
soon as you take fob p much required to take the collat under it so may as well just swap places with them imo
writhing armor banding + dawnthread = double dawnthread right?
nah
why not
dawnthread isnt nerubian
Whatโs the best tip with this arms rotation to pump more dps? First time ever playing arms
press execute 2x before ms in execute
ty all
is sweeping strikes the only thing that allows st attacks to hit multiple?
yes
i just copied that aoe colosses build above
so we use colosus smash over warbreaker?
no?
why are raiders running void elfs as arms warrior ?
i copied the thing above and it says spell
unlearned warbreaker lol
Does most dam and the racial is useful sometimes
Archon shows Eye of Kezan + House of Cards. but i only have the funhouse lens, eye of kezan, and pacemaker
Is there somewhere to see the racial damage comparisons? Like are we talking 0.1% difference
thank you
I had a link to the sim but it's expired now, I think it's like 1% between the very best race and the very worst
funhouse + pacemaker for sure
Eye of kezan is pretty bad in M+ unless your tank is constantly chainpulling
question does a spell reflect wa work ? i tryd 4 of them but no one worked
Noggenfrogger simming like wut.. anyone has a max version ?
raidbot tells me its 2.5% better than funhouse at max level ๐ , kinda shocked
it sims very well in st ye
Kinda cringe tho bc the guy can die or just stand there afk
ah so its one of those "sounds good but " kind of trinket
I mean in a vacuum it is really good for single target
In practice idk
Also I wouldn't be surprised if it gets gutted because of outlaw
how Noggenfogger Ultimate Deluxe works?
It inherits your attack speed and outlaw inside adrenaline rush has giga attack speed
Which seems unintended
oh lol, that seems busted
How do yall feel about Arms right now in pve?
pretty good
i just switched arms and afraid theyll nerf it and make fury the better pve build lol
N > spec fury
N?
Default keybind for talents
arms is so fucking good in motherlode, my god
arms is good everywhere lol
motherlode is DIFFERENT
maintaining the agenda is our top priority
the aoe damange from arms to fury is def a big jump since i switched lol
sure doesnt feel too hot in the rookey when youre out of melee range 20% of the dungeon
ill wait till u try something like ele 
haha i play only war
look at this, first 3 bosses in motherlode 15:
Arms is the 15th most dps out of 26 for m+ according to mythicstats, we are in the best case the middle of the pack
^
When you compare with fury that is almost last, it is surely a big dps increase
first boss you have a damage buff and the second boss youre constantly cleaving an add you do like 200% damage too @austere hamlet
Motherlode definitely is a perfect dungeon for Arms warrior
Buff bs
yeah thats the point
hey guys
want to ask something
was trying to learn colossus mythic plus spec
colossus mythic was too much button, when we fight single target, can thunder clap replace rend? can cleave replace slam as filter?
Tc can replace rend sure, but cleave would consume your Martial Prowess stacks so wouldnt do that
Can we use avatar before m+ started and keep active effect and have cd reset on start of mythic?
Dumb af questions but Iโve never played arms. Are they hard capped in AOE like fury or ?
Running and watching DKs and Monks average 5.5M while I have to sweat to keep 3.5M because Iโm hard capped at 5 targets while fury is annoying for keys. I get we have good ST. Just asking if itโs worth to move to arms for higher keys
Arms is indeed not target capped like Fury is o/
Is it worth to swap? That is a question for yourself and your teamcomp
you should play what you enjoy more
Will clearing the overall trash 2min faster, be worth the potential cost in minutes on the boss? We dont know
Well the question is always what you get more invites as
๐คฃ
As a pugger at least
Ele shaman
Or uh dk
Boomkin
Ret
Rogue
Mage
The list goes on
Though tbh havent struggled gettin into 10s
Enha too tbh
Just curious what's everyone's single target colossus arms looking like in mythic plus? My sims are showing 1.6m 654 ilvl(no s2 tier yet), but I'm hitting low 1.1m-1.4m on most dungeons. Also my overall dmg is always between 1.5m-1.8m
hello -- what is our 10T priority for MS/Op/Cleave -- im hearing different things so was curious
I got same Ilvl ish, but do around 1.7-1.8 on bosses as colossus
I do have new 4set tho
You can't only cooldowns longer then 2 minutes, it has the same code as when you reset bosses in raid
Since avatar dont get resetted in raid either
is there a way to cheese or force spawn the barrels in richard reverb for them not to be dogshit
no
๐

Hi! I just got the Best-In-Slots weapon. Just macro to Avatar? Thanks!
What's better for M+? Blademaster's Torment or Warlord's Torment? I'm seeing arms use both but not sure which is better
one is st and one is aoe
anyone who can help me analyze my mythic logs and help me get better? :)
pick what you want since its preference
oh thx
could anyone tell me how to improve on DPS?
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/NMLhZCmyFAnpdqvr
i do FINE in m+ but apperantly i suck in this raid
first time iv played warrior since like, BfA tho
I see iv put it in the wrong section, sorry
Do you have any specific questions? Are there parts of the rotation that you aren't sure how to handle? Are there fight-specific timings or mechanics you're struggling to maximize dps around?
I'm really not sure tbh.
It seems to be so bad that i dont know where to start.
I keep rend and deep wounds up, i use Colossus smash after putting out all my bleeds, and before i use bladestorm, and i prio execute>mortal strike>overpower>slam
ill take any takes to improve.
also, slayer or colossus for one armed bandit/mugzee?
and raid in general?
I would start with reading any of the guides in DPS FAQ cuz thats not the priority you should be following
Slayer for every fight in raid except maybe Stix depending on your raid comp
And maybe mythic bandit
Do we use MS during ravager in big packs to get to 10 stacks of demolish fast? Ive seen a video saying not to use MS during ravager
"Don't ms during ravager" applies to specifically when running Executioners Precision during execute range
thats for ST and during execute only
In aoe you absolutely do MS during rav
yeah basically only when your playing ravager in raid with EP during exe
So we press execute instead durign that phase. Ok got it
if you are in raid with ravager and EP and the boss is in exe yeah you just spam exe and let ravager cast MS for you
Buff tom

TOM died with warlords torment
good riddance
except for old warlords I miss that guy
Also the IP/ww nerf
you can say what you want about our rage economy in DF but what warlords did was make CS actually feel great to press especially in execute. Warlords kinda died for no reason aswell cuz our rage is still stupid and something we dont give two fucks about overcapping
so give us old warlords back rage still pointless anyways
Biggest arms downgrade going into TWW was the loss of SOS
Yea the rage changes were dumb
Ive tried blademasters tormentt in M+ and its lowkey sick
And just more of them saying nonsense about warrior but it not being true at all
Like colossus uses execute too much
Clearly that's an issue with execute and not ms tuning
I dont like how its just for more aoe padding. Prefer warlords for the extra demo crit and it being useful in ST while blademaster has 0 value in ST
Fair point
I don't want it to be a ton of st but more than 0?
should lower MS cd aswell
Why are people playing Colossus over Slayer for Mythic Bandit?
We should really be able to take both torments
Add dam goes hard
As long as our capstone are dog ass
so its just to kill the assistants faster?
Perhaps because they struggle with add damage
Dunno
I would assume colossus probably helps with killing the adds a lil more than slayer
I think so yeah. Haven't done mythic bandit yet meself
I see
SS demo onto add and boss helps
I also played colossus on Rik because we had a hard time dealing with the adds sometimes
depends if your grp needs the add dmg or not
if you dont I would just full slayer into boss
Just wait and see if your guild can deal with the adds without you going col
Boss damage is also pretty important so if you dont have to go col then you shouldnt
Idr who said it, maybe Walhe or madox, but if you don't have ww monks giga dunking the adds, you probably want to spec into more add dam
Boss dam isn't fully irrelevant but less relevant than add dam
can look at the logs both the warriors doing piss weak compared to the rest of their raid
yeah cheers guys
Piss weak on add dmg?
on overall lemme see what add dmg is like
Oh myb yโall are talking about rik still I thought one armed
no im talkin about one armed
But arms damage on Rik is also piss if youre not col
And if youre col then your damage is piss on boss
Not like it would otherwise be good on boss tho
@lean geode DO you know what the difference is between these two on bandit logs?
im not that much of a log wizard
Maybe cc-able vs not cc-able adds?
I wouldnt be surprised if they had different IDs
Between the two assistants? No clue
I'm also not at home rn so can't really look at logs myself
For assistants Id guess the ones that are there from the start and the ones that spawn, but would have to see numbers
the first reel assistent the two warriors are blasting on with big demo I think those are the ones where a bunch of them spawn right?
hmm well gonna be interesting to see when more warriors kills bandit
so from what i can see, Execute is prio IF you have x3 marked for execution
only use overpower if รฅay them back is active, or winning streak is on 7+ stacks (not sure about this)
MS on CD
rend on 4 seconds left
is this correct?
Also exe if your juggernaut is close to falling off, if you have 2x sudden death, or 1x sudden death and it's close to falling off
And OP with opportunist over MS
Missing a couple conditionals on that execute OP is wrong idk whats telling you that
I think the OP with winning streak/pay them back is fake
i gotta get my all my stacks to show on my wa somehow
which guide did u read outta curiousity
The OP stuff is old I think @minor gust , fishy and walhe took it out at some point
It used to be in there tho
so Op regardless of winning streak stacks?
also OP with opportunist over MS, even if you have 2 stacks of the MS increasing buff up?
if the execute conditionals seem to overbearing for you btw we have a WA that takes out all the thinking required
Not if you have 2x martial prowess
read the maxroll one, but also asked a friend that seems to be doing better than I
yea no, im SOOOO much better
where can i find it, i love to not use my brain if i can avoid it
or...to use it uintill i get my legs under me more like
Ctrl+f "SD conditions"
Think it's also in the #dps-faq weakaura section
I am sorry for all the annoying, amature questions here. i'm just desperate to be not horrible
It will play a kaching sound whenever you should press execute
Silence, weakaura user
Vibes guy is talking
remember this only applies when your not in execute phase
Toreole are you ever gonna come help me update wowa
Sorry no
Based
much apreciated
I got plenty of stuff to do in terms of things i have to and want to, that wowa has negative priority
But consider this: SD is real annoying to fix the buff processing for and I don't wanna
Also I have to fully rewrite both arms and fury to use the new melee uptime component ๐
I'm not ๐
But yeah good luck with all that
Ragaliciรณรฒus-Draenor lol that guy got brewery neck and already has it but he only sells items he said so watch out for him, hes gonna vendor it instead i even offered 10k but he wants at least 50k or he vendors XD
what

mans a buisness man
That sucks for you bud but like what are we supposed to do about it?
Loot is whoever gets its to decide, pretend it didnโt drop for you (because it didnโt)
I donโt pay people for loot on principle, Iโll ask, if they say โhow muchโ I just accept it never dropped for me
People did this for spymasters and asked ridiculous amounts of gold
I once had like 6 different people in a heroic pug whisper me about wanting to buy my loot
I've offered people money for loot bc my mental was shattered from running the same dungeon for 2 weeks straight
I've never paid someone who asked for it tho
warning u guys of him xd
Opportunist Vs Winning/pay them back is more or less the same thing, Opportunist in my findings was overall stronger while being considerably more simple
track proc vs tracking 2 procs durations stacks @_@ no thanks
i hit shiny overpower ๐
sounds about right
ive had pulls where opp was hardest hit as slayer
needed that 15% nerf fershure
id say COLOSSAL diff
Tom can stay dead
how annoying is using ratfang trinket?
ratfang angle
Is Zee's Thug hotline worth anything?
is this a meme?
The difference is just one of them is the 2 first that are active at the start of the fight
thank you
banezi ๐ ๐๏ธ
yo, really weird question, a guildie was joking around about "arms never hitting execute", tf did he mean by this, havent played arms since Shadowlands so i've missed a bit
anda ๐ ๐
im literally tucked in buddy
I'm not :3
You do in fact Execute a lot more than you did in Shadowlands, however if you play the no Executioner's Precision Colossus build for M+, then Execute is just a filler and nothing else
arms does in fact press execute
maybe he meant fury
need a kiss on the forehead?
Colossus
There u rarely press execute
Sim lords, how big is DPS gain from 2-set and 4-set?
as an arms what overall is good in dungeons?
Sim it
Was there ever a public statement/dev feedback/discussion about Arms AoE all having different range values? 8y, 10y, 12y, it's kinda dumb.
I don't think so, at least not recently. For all intents and purposes, 8y should be enough assuming mobs are gathered.
do you guys macro any cooldowns together? like avatar/sweeping?
or even avatar/warbreaker
No
2-set small gain, 4-set noticeable
learning arms atm after otping fury, more buttons on arms x)
just hit 3k where is my Enterprising Shreddertank mount?? smh
Arms just has a piano opener compared to Fury being straight foward
mine came in mail
But it's always going to be the same opener
Just practice it on dummies until you get it down
wow im blind thanks
yw and gz!
Just send mortal strike on cd = win
yeh working on it, fury feels so simple compared to this
The reason that you don't want to macro stuff either, and can't really, is that basically everything is on the GCD, and you want to use them in set orders
i want to learn arms primarily for cinderbrew hahah
Just send cleave on cd = win
i see yeah, i was thinking maybe i could do avatar and warbreaker since their cooldown kinda aligns and warbreaker is also a dmg increase ability similar to avatar right
so if i wanna send big damage id wanna ava + warbreaker anyway right?
You could technically macro them together yes, but you'd want a separate WB bind anyway
Since there are moments where you want to just WB but not send Avatar, because it's not worth using Avatar on whatever pack you're on, or at the end of a boss fight
i see yeah, that makes sense
just like with fury with reck you dont always wanna send WB and ava together
Are you playing colossus?
yeah i took the m+ build from dps-faq here in the disc
will give you the spoiler right cuz dps FAQ isnt updated. Drop EP and FB for double BB
But I like to align Avatar with demolish
I was gonna ask if I want to always pair warbreaker with demolish but I only wanna send demolish with 6 stacks of the thingy right?
EP stinks
I still send demolish if the avatar cd is too long
Whats EP and FB?
10
Executioners precision and Finishing Blows
But if you do rotation properly you will almost always have 10 stack demolish
it lasts long as hell even if you send early it should cover a WB/demo
avatar i mean
cdr class things
I see, and I get those stacks from mortal strike right?
yeah you can press ava few seconds early but still you will want a WB and Demo in that window
Mortal strike and cleave if it hits 3+ targets
whats BB? i feel so blind i cant find finishing blows on the talent tree either
ah ok nvm i see yeah
theres a search button bar in the talent tree but BB is Bloodborne
oh shit there is, tysm i never knew
wish i could have mortal strike and cleave on same keybind somehow
its one or the other always right, single target vs aoe
Fury players and their low key binds. Nows the time to start adding more and getting used to it instead of trying to macro shit
MMO mouses make a world of difference aswell
i macro together reck+avatar on fury as well x)
i swear that spec is easy mode
Cleave 3+ targets and on single target with Collateral damage stacks
rav/reck macro
doin all the heavy lifting for me
So id send one Cleave after sweeping strikes when ive fought 2+ targets
even if only one target left
Please don't blanket say things like "not updated" when you want to recommend something different - it gives off a very different perception from what you're trying to imply
if you want to recommend something different, you can just say what and why
This one is a pretty loaded but at 3+ targets the prio will be Cleave > MS > OP at 2 targets its MS > OP > cleave and at 1 target MS > OP > Slam.
Sure my bad coulda worded it differently
Yea, don't know what is appropriate amount if stacks for single target send
not to mention that acting like someone clearly struggling with the gameplay is going to magically perform better because they made a switch for +0.5% passive dam; when they clearly got bigger things to figure out
Right okay, I gotta fit slam into my keybind as well damn
And as buddy above said you still cast alot of mortal strike in aoe
ah right
Cleave MS Slam are rage spenders, and the priority changes based on how many targets that makes sense yeah
Slam is filler
I saw i could just forgo rend and use thunder clap instead always right
You cast slam when there is nothing else
slam above thunderclap/rend if they already have bleed though right?
i only use rend/thunderclap to apply the bleed and nothing else
Yes
gotcha makes sensemakes sense ๐๏ธ โ๏ธ
Didnt mean it like that my intention of bringing it up was because a lot of us have come to the same conclusion of not liking EP in the colossus M+ due to how little we cast exe in an M+ scenario. And since he mentioned he got his build from the DPS FAQ I just wanted to give him the heads up. Playing with EP has lead to some new player confusion aswell with what to do in execute as colossus. Again my bad for making it sound like whats in DPS FAQ is wrong ik you have put a lot of work into it
it's fine to have a preference, it's also fine to recommend something different
but more importantly that how much work someone may or may not put into it, it's creating the impression that the resources are somehow wrong, which gives a bad impression and is misleading for people who don't know better
agreed
You will learn it quickly, outaide cooldowns arms is really not that complicated IMO
cause if you just unilaterally decide one thing is wrong, the question then becomes "well what else is?"
thank u ๐ will keep at it
I see whirlwind mentioned a lot in the talent tree for arms but we dont have whirlwind do we?
fwiw, I agree with you though, EP is not exactly smooth for Colossus
Cleave replaces ww
we see that confusion all the time when people ask what guide is better icy veins or wowhead when their made by the same person

ah makes sense, tysm
Np np
I mean I have no problem changing the recommended build if someone wants to make a good argument for it
I added Slayer BL for that reason, despite my personally never wanting to touch it with a 10ft pole
I saw crit being nr1 stat prio for arms, but my gear doesnt rly focus on it as well. Will this limit my damage a lot?
or is it kinda w.e
Crit is juicy on arms
man i regret vendoring some crit necklessness now
I think as long as colossus treats exe as a slam replacement EP is not that great because of how much MS/OP resets we get. Every key I look at I end with usually 20 or less execute casts.
You can sim your character on raidbots and it'll tell you what the best gear for you to equip/farm is
if you really care about it you can item restore, but presuming you're not running around in 678 already, pretty much everything is replaceable through M+
you'll also find that as your gear gets better, stats tend to converge a lot, so you don't strictly need crit in every slot or anything
how far back can i restore stuff? i assume they only keep like last 30 pieces
it's a few weeks worth from what I remember, but idk, go look
one high Crit ring or neck is really all you need
Arms like mastery aswell so its fine
Pretty much all stats are goid on arms
ill check the restore thing as well
Don't know about vers
thats bis, no?
I don't think the amount it gets cast is the issue so much as the fact that Exe starts to rage starve you - FB helps maintain but you often get stuck in a weird rotation where you either run out of OP charges while MS is still on cooldown or it just doesn't generate quite enough to use MS/Exe again
realistically, FB should probably just generate more rage than it does, cause 8 isn't really enough to do anything with
numerically, its tuned to compete with Critical Thinking, but just doesn't flow very well since you're trying to use OP as both a generator and a filler
Yes
damn ok nice thank god for item restoration lmao
Probably right but my brain just goes hey this is a talent that only works if I cast execute. So if im only pressing execute maybe 4-5 times on a boss I dont see the point and I would rather take a talent that gives me more all around power.
that opinion is completely fair
the real power comes from Ravager during Execute, but that timing isn't always viable on shorter dungeon boss fights
Itโs always good to sim everything. You could honestly just grab any purple you have in the item restoration to see what you have, then sim to see what gets you at the highest output. Jewelry is pretty weird cause no Str, but generally if it has crit (like Charmed) itโs good
Oh yea and you don't cast rend /thunder clap after 35% hp, Mortal strike refreshes it at that point
yeah would depend on the boss, and how high the key is, and when you get ravager back. Hard to judge
ill look thru, quite a lot in there but ill scout for crit as least
like Last boss of rookery getting shield while hes below 20% nice
aaa good to know, tysm
unless there are several targets anyway
though you could tab target mortal strike around, that's a lot of effort
Yea thunderclap is much better option for that
And thanks for the guides mate, really helped me get into arms
welp im gonna throw myself into some m0s or low keys to try out arms, tysm for the help guys
when in doubt press cleave and MS
ok first dungeon done, i think im a liiiittle better
a few questions tho, how long am i holding Demolish to line it up w/ warbreaker and avatar? if I have 10 stacks
also, in the m+ build. I think im slowly getting the hang of the cleave/MS/OP/slam priority, but how does execute fit into that if im not running EP?
so in m+ ill be wanting to use execute w/ like mouseover to use it on low health enemies instead of slam for most of the trash packs?
as far as holding demo for WB in aoe they should always be lining up but will desync in ST at times if WB and Demo are more than 10 sec apart ill just send demo naked in ST
you would just cleave if you are fighting many targets
no need
between MS cleave and OP you almost always have something to press
and tclap to refresh bleeds
slam is the lowest prio filler so if mobs are sub 20% execute would still be the lowest priority
riiight id only be pressing slam in ST, or execute instead
I felt like I was overcapping rage a fair bit, should I use slam over OP in ST if im at max rage?
dont worry about overcapping
alright
rage isnt real
is there a execute/slam macro ๐ค
no
I just had a 7m MS on chewie in BREW and I have no idea why
if execute just replaces slam below 20% wouldnt it be possible to have both on one button?
like use execute, if that doesnt work use slam or something?
or would there be a reason for me wanting them on seperate keybinds
thats not how macros work unfortunately something like that would break once u get 20% and can use execute anyways
because you can still slam sub 20%
awh
dont be lazy get to keybind practice!
would a cast-sequence skip execute if target isnt below 20% and use slam, but if it is below 20% it would use execute?
๐ค
i already dont have a keybind for my poor spell reflection D:
use z
Z is my unsheath button to look cool
Z is good suggestion tho ill find smth else to unsheath
start incorporating more keybinds there so much you can use
holy main abillities on QERF found the moba player
YEP hahaha
league is my main game last 10 years 
hey whatever is comfortable to you
highly recommend owning an MMO mouse realy helps for keybindings
but dont be afraid to incoporate more shitft Ctrl binds
or alt if you like that key
tbh im pretty comfortable with Ctrl R/Q/E, currently use them for mount and my buff, could prolly use them for more important stuff
got two mouse buttons which i already use for charge and tab targetting, used to have an mmo mouse a few years back but always felt uncomfortable with how i hold mice
tilde is good, imma use that
Ig I still have F3 and F4 unbound as well, F1 F2 are heals atm
I don't use those cept marking
my mouse has 12 buttons on it. If its uncomfortable for you then yeah no need prioritize your hand comfort. can just use Ctrl and shift for more keybinds then
rest is just muscle memory practice
Ineed low keybind specs spoil you
