#

rather than just op and slam I mean

lean geode
#

You absolutely MS over slam in every case

#

Your aoe prio as colossus is
cleave > MS > OP > exe > slam

#

Regardless of whether you have SS up or not

#

I think Fishy said there's some shit with OP vs MS in some target counts with DN but that might be fake

tender jolt
#

I'm just gearing towards raid atm, but I have like around 30% crit/haste/mast I just sim my st haha

manic river
terse lintel
#

so does BT override your collateral damage proc?

manic river
terse lintel
#

im assuming you would use SS first then Avatar when thats done right

lean geode
#

And it's not like it shares a cd with cleave or anything

#

If you're worried about rage, move a point from bloodborne into bloodsurge

manic river
#

Do you still put MS over op out of SS then?

#

i guess so

#

also our current tier set kinda makes you wanna save op for when you don't have anything else so you get stacks I guess

manic river
#

I see, I also think one of my problems is that when getting ilvls my haste got fucked all the way and i need to recover more of that

#

too slow

lean geode
# manic river Ty

I wrote up a much more comprehensive thing here #arms message which is really all from the wowhead guide but in a simpler, more condensed format

manic river
#

Just to cover all, is it worth it to cast cleave in st too over slam?

lean geode
manic river
#

heh

unborn canyon
#

did they remove the immunity to forced movement/knockback with bladestorm? or am i just imagining that it had that?

lean geode
#

Still has it

I did it last night with a bomb on cauldron

multiple pushes have pushed me during BS

#

so it was weird

I think the mugzee dirt phase transition still knocks you

#

Idk why

gross

#

Oh one last thing, in aoe do you usually wait for the 10 stacks for demolish? usually on the very first one I just throw it and then the ones after that will almsot always come up with 10 but

lean geode
#

Man that's in the message I linked

#

Yes it's mathematically correct to wait for 10 stacks in aoe

#

In practical cases you might want to use it earlier if stuff would otherwise die, if your warbreaker is running out, etc.

simc is an empiric model not technically a rigorous mathematical one

#

in m+ if there's only 2 targets left, do we still use cleave (esp outside of sweeping strikes)?

shadow ibex
#

over slam yes

u cleave over slam

#

Should I be using dungeon slice to sim M+ or is 5 bosses 1.5min combat better?

lean geode
#

If you want a general aoe vibe also do a 5t 5m patchwerk

crude canyon
#

gotcha ty !

dull karma
#

I got a question for you guys! In a M+ thrash fight, when I SS, should I prio Mortal Strike or Cleave? Be cause I just finished a 13 ML and I averaged 2.53M and looking at my details, I feel like my cleave damage is low. Lets me know (reminder to follow up for myself @dull karma )

shadow ibex
#

You pretty much alternate between them both in aoe since they have cds and do a lot of stuff

#

If one keeps getting reset keep using it p much

smoky kayak
#

the biggest part of using Cleave (and Demolish) is making sure it actually hits everything, because it is a frontal cone with a very small backsplash, not a radial AoE like Whirlwind, which means that it won't always hit targets behind you

So happy with how warrior is this season overall just really fun

#

And numbers are nice

#

Would be more nice if slayer was a bit better in keys, blizz where is my spieeeeen buff!?

dim basalt
#

I wish we never had to touch Slayer at all

#

Col just feels better

steel sluice
#

Well good thing play styles and prefs are a thing because slayer feels better to me =p

#

Now I'm not asking slayer be better in keys just to were it's donst feel like a hard carry

narrow flax

wary raft
#

its an artifact apperance

narrow flax

#

and then have 15 keystones completed ? (not sure if you have to do that after questline)

junior spruce

#

im not sure how much of this is still obtainable, hence my question

#

im mostly interested in the top row tho

junior spruce
#

Top row achievements are all obtainable afaik

narrow flax
#

aight

#

thanks

junior spruce
#

Just know that Balance of Power takes A LOT of time lol

#

Beautiful questline though

swift crown
#

A few weekly resets generally unless they sped it up

#

Cause you need to collect drops from raid and don't usually get enough in a single reset

#

Otherwise it's not that long

#

Mostly the timegating

i just started arms monday i mained fury in shadows sorry i been sleeping on arms

gloomy prism
#

quick question why ppl using ravanger in m+ and not bladestorm

left laurel
#

im new but i think its to spam your cast and you arent running slayer

#

bladestorm locks you out

fresh spire
#

Bladestorm is ass. Damage is barely better than ravager if you excuse the single cleave cast during ravager being the difference

gray herald
reef birch
#

is there a general consensus as to whether ascension or double thread is the better for m+

thick kelp
#

double thread

#

ascension takes time to stack + can fall off between pulls

reef birch
#

yeah...i wish it worked liek smolderon trinket and refreshed in combat

hexed snow
calm hollow

or 1? i'm not even sure

M+ authority, but still, you should sim it.

Why does bloodmallet add a stat stick trinket in the second slot?

#

doesnt a str + vers stat stick devalue str and vers on the other trinket they are simming?

shouldd I be taking bitter immunity this week

for M+

hexed snow
#

Should mention there is no difference

ripe igloo
#

doing mainly 11s

hexed snow
ripe igloo
#

it doesnt matter at 12-13 as the affix is not there

hexed snow
#

Are u talking about the xalatath affix?

ripe igloo
#

yes

hexed snow
#

It is very much there

ripe igloo
#

okay heard

#

ty

hexed snow
#

If it's rly bad on pugs then I'd bring it

#

But I haven't had such issues this week SO FAR

ripe igloo
#

It def helps in some less then great pugs

#

but idk if its worth losing the DPS

hollow wave
#

I heal 10s and it's not an issue that much

hexed snow
#

But also I'd rather just press the impending victory to get a stack of jeal back

#

Trade off is rage/dps

hexed snow
#

🕵️

hollow wave
#

You guys are not wasting rage in m+? In AoE iam always capped rage

hexed snow
#

I love clicking buttons

violet steeple
rapid bronze
#

yeah there's no affix at 12 lol

#

unless you mean the 15 sec timer death is an affix

#

it's not super costly to get it for anything below 12 and will help your healer out every 3rd affix

hollow wave
#

Most of the time it doesn't matter that much, but I can't say it doesn't help

thunderclap affects max of 5 targets with rend right? how do i keep track of whether all targets in a bigass pull have rend on them?

#

Maybe arms brothers would know

#

Is it pretty normal for “left quadrant” to get screwed out of quantity of small trash piles to get there ball started as we rotate boss around the room after each ball set?

#

On stix*

#

I find it pretty chill because I can just leap to a good path but that scenario keeps screwing us

charred brook
#

No

#

People are just overlapping on you

#

Tell them to stop

#

Took us about 5 pulls to get that down

olive nest
#

Melee assign is consistently fucked

charred brook
#

People tend to always do the same thing until they realize the problem

olive nest
#

And leadership just says “skill issue”

#

Like no bruh there’s literally no small trash

charred brook
#

No people need to not overlap at the start

olive nest
#

What are you supposed to do just go fuck yourself??

#

Lmao

charred brook
#

Big balls also shouldn’t be going for small trash unless there’s nothing left

#

Middle people usually go for hyenas first then scrapmaster

spiral coral
#

I feel like I’m pumping in keys with the colossus m+ aoe build but the slayer st rec build for raiding just feels like shit to me. Is there a good colossus st build for raiding? Or do I just have to figure out slayer lol

olive nest
#

Ok that makes sense Eddie appreciate it

charred brook
#

First 2 bigs always go for bombbs typically

#

Yeah just tell them to stop overlapping tbh

charred brook
#

Only raid fight you use it on is OAB

olive nest
#

Ok that makes sense to me it’s like we’re burning to much trash around quadrants we’re moving away from aka “melee assign”

charred brook
#

And it feels weird to play

spiral coral
#

I just feel like halfway through my rotation I’m left with nothing to press

olive nest
#

So that’s probably the big issue

charred brook
#

If nothing left slam to look for tactician procs

spiral coral
#

Gotcha. I’m just going to spend some time on a dummy.

charred brook
#

Make sure you are tracking juggernaut and using slayer execute weakaura

spiral coral
#

Wanted to be sure before getting used to it. Because. Slayer feels weird to me lol.

charred brook
#

It will feel better once you get the hang of it, it’s just a lot to track

spiral coral
#

Tyty I knew the answer was “no your bad there isn’t a turnkey build, get better” lmao

#

Might just stick to fury for raiding and arms for m+ tbh

eager sigil
#

just press ms on cd and use execute wa

#

thats like 80% of the class

dapper plank
#

oh nvm thats prob for fury

charred brook
#

Yeah there’s another one same as that for arms

inland drift
#

wonder if i can use fury raid build with the arms loadout i got , idk if 40% crit will help

olive nest
#

I throw on H best in slots in the offhand and swap a ring on for fury

#

It’s not that bad you’re still good at add damage in raid with arms gear

#

Just not “optimal”

inland drift
#

thanks :D, i do have a ring for fury and a second weapon,

quaint karma
#

how does arms feel in m+ atm

inland drift

pretty nice , i like it, nice dot damage, big aoe

Hello guys, i have crafted wrists and back and now i have free spark when i sim what is best for me to craft i tells me that i have to relace that siren isles ring with crafted one.

#

Should we be tracking 4pc buff for any reason or is just mostly passive? Also in M+ if i'm rocking blademasters tormet should I expend collateral before rolling self cast sweeping or cast it before it falls off? Does it stack like that?

olive nest
#

4pc doesn’t matter you react to and spend opportunist procs high in the prio

amber hull
#

That's why I love you brew

olive nest
#

I don’t run Blademasters personally but you can probably extend

#

OH HELLO

OH HELLO THERE

olive nest
amber hull

fun as shit

#

good to be back after a season of the shaman

olive nest
#

Colo M+ is peak fun right now imo

#

Especially when stars align and you send a tactical nuke cleave

amber hull
#

seeing the cleave crit for like 8 mil sends me

bitter escarp
#

Demo is so fun and the fact you can leap while channeling and not miss is peak

amber hull
#

oh shit for real?

bitter escarp
#

ye it was the only reason I disliked it at first but a prot fren let me in on the tech

olive nest
#

Yeah you can leap with it and not miss

#

Nice tech

#

First boss cinder!!!

amber hull
#

I think it extends, just tested it pretty baseline and cleave crit for 2 mil without any buffs really

#

or not crit

#

hit

olive nest
#

Wait until you see a 60m cleave

amber hull
#

well i'm not sure shit will last that long honestly for it to matter now that I think abou tit

#

Carry high* stack collateral buff to next pack > make sure ava wb demolish & two stacks if martial prowess are running > ravager into cleave

so I'm seeing a lot of confusion in this channel when I search up 'opener'

#

hollow plover
#

U talking m+ colo?

hexed snow
#

MT :O

tiny dock
#

yeah

hexed snow
tiny dock
#

i see a bunch of people saying you should get to 10 before sending

#

some people saying 8 is ok

#

but am I supposed to just keep ms'ing and cleaving until 8-10? or do I actually just follow the wowhead opener and send at like, 2-4 stacks lol

hollow plover
#

Charge, cleave, clap, roar, rav, ss, wb+ava, get 8 stacks, demolish

hexed snow
#

Doesn't the wowhead opener mention that the demolish is there for 8 or 10?

hollow plover
#

U get last 2 from unhinged during demolish cast

tiny dock
#

this is all I see on wowhead

tiny dock
#

wb + ava and then just farm stacks as fast as possible then send demo

hexed snow
#

Ahh it's the rotation that mentions 10

tiny dock
#

yeah the aoe rotation mentions 10

#

which I get, but i was wondering why the opener just sends demo after 2 cleaves

hexed snow
#

Remember ravager casts MS

#

If execute conditions arent met, but I can use execute do I still hold the execute even if slam is the only other thing to use? Or does this situation not really happen

swift crown
#

Happens a lot

#

Yes you slam

#

You're trying your absolute hardest to carry your Juggernaut stucks

#

That's the point of the conditionals

toxic socket
#

wait so we dont just hit exe when we can before exe phase? 😛

#

i thought we just used exe when we could and have a hope and prayer for it to proc and stop jugg from going

swift crown
#

It makes a huge diff if you can carry your Jugg stacks to the execute phase

dapper plank
#

okay so its just to build jugg stack to 15 or something before going into exe phase

swift crown
#

It's to have the highest chance possible to keep your Jugg stacks

#

Not necessarily 15, however many you can get

stable fiber
#

some bosses you can just send the SD proc no matter what i feel, rik riverb for example with its forced downtime

#

one pull though i had 15 stacks like the entire pull because people would get MC'ed and i execute them

swift crown
#

I've carried a Jugg stack through intermission before

stable fiber
#

yeah

swift crown
#

Just has to line up well enough

stable fiber
#

its rare though, also much harder to do on mythic when your guild learns how to dodge and stops getting mced

swift crown
#

There's not really a reason not to do it, but yea some encounters it's less important than others

#

Technically with a bit of luck you can keep Jugg going throughout a Lockenstock pull for example

#

Less likely than on Fury but can happen

stable fiber
#

if its super early in the pull i just send the exe in the cs window for a bigger mortal strike

#

that might be bad though idk

swift crown
#

Even if you don't carry a Jugg all the way, carrying it as long as possible still means you buff your subsequent Executes

so the tactician proc > ms with 2 ep (so 2 executes) > execute if ms not reseted > op

does the opportunist proc last till u use next op or does it have X secs before fading?

#

does 4pc make or break arms

fresh spire
#

its pretty good

cobalt sinew
#

maybe its because i have more haste than crit

fresh spire
#

if you are playing Slayer haste is good to have, you will want more haste than crit overall on your gear

cobalt sinew
#

38% haste 29% crit

fresh spire
#

Likely hood is if you have somewhat bad dps then you are likely missing something in the rotation. would suggest reading over the guide rotations make sure you aren't missing anything

Is arms better than fury for keys now?

if i follow the rotation of ravager after sweeping, it feels like ravager is done by the time i finishing my SS window and have a big cleave setup

#

am i doing it wrong or is that really the right way to do it?

#

seems like i want that big cleave to happen during my ravager?

Ive been doing arms in key recently, feels quite a bit better on big pulls then fury atm

#

Why would anyone go to the fire side in Priory

deep moth
#

They're either dumb or trolling

nova marsh
#

Yeah I just had someone do that in a +10

#

We literally spent so damn long there because the damage was so absurd we were at 12 minutes before the first boss like...that's not normal

#

I just gave up because that was a dead key like no shot

sage bison
#

deep moth
#

I would say though honestly maybe they we're trying a new route

nova marsh
#

yeah but like I'd say if ur doing that

#

...tell the group?

#

Bro was a master chain puller thou shit was wild

#

I think the healer had a stroke

deep moth
nova marsh
#

The forge master honestly is the one mob in M+ currently I genuinely think needs a nerf

#

it's actual suicide trying to fight it

deep moth
#

yeah for sure

#

also did anyone see that they don't have theatre of pain on the vote thing

rare kite
deep moth
#

oh, that makes more sense

nova marsh
#

we do not need theater for two seasons in a bloody row

#

what is this shadowlands?

deep moth
#

the only fun dg in SL

#

I fucking hate mists

nova marsh
#

Tbh there is not a single shadowlands dungeon I actually like

#

Most I tolerate but none I actually like

deep moth
#

I mained vdh in SL and it was the most fun

#

tank and spank all the way to last boss

rare kite
#

halls of atonement owns. both tazavesh dungeons owns

nova marsh
#

...ehhh yeah tazavesh is pretty good overall

#

I meant baseline. And halls is just kinda...fine, kinda would like to see it come back.

#

But really I'd rather they try some more new to M+ dungeons, like at least one per season

deep moth
#

I hated the quest to tazavesh

#

I liked it as a dungeon

nova marsh
#

...and please don't repeat this season's, it was kinda dissapointing to see all repeats and then flood gate

deep moth
#

floodgate is bad

nova marsh
#

Yeah not a fan

deep moth
#

hate that shit

nova marsh
#

The big pulls in there are kinda nice but overall not really fun. And whoever thought sludgefist in a dungeon was a good idea needs to have a pysch eval

rare kite
#

floodgate easily the best war within dungeon

nova marsh
#

....na

deep moth
#

mutou legitimately trolling

rare kite
#

i'm not

nova marsh
#

But I mean the dungeons this xpack is....very very mid

deep moth
#

I like rookery

#

but I also like tank and spank dungeons so

rare kite
#

only bad thing about floodgate is 2nd boss. all the other bosses are toptier

nova marsh
#

Third boss in flood gate is....kinda just annoying

#

at least to learn in the first few weeks

#

But after that it's just....tedious

#

And then the last boss is just healer hell, but we aren't healers soooo

#

Also I don't like how much area denial the trash has in flood gate, feels a tad overkill

shadow ibex
#

I'm voting based on trinkets tbh

#

And floodgates has a 2h

Idk why the floodgate hate. Its one of the fastest, has big pulls with actual interesting mobs so you have to play the game, fun bosses and good loot

quaint otter
#

Yes

nova marsh
#

Had a really good group that two chested it and it felt like 15 minutes. Crazy

#

I'm just not happy about murkface and the last boss really

#

Also it used to literally shoot my pc on launch despite even raid running better

chilly coyote
#

It's all personal preference anyways. For me I just enjoy when there's active gameplay compared to dungeons where its just a long slugfest with less to no threats like mechagon or dfc

#

Or top 💀

nova marsh
#

Oh yeah I like actually doing stuff thats engaging. The lack of polish on performance is what killed floodgate for me and I know I'm not alone

#

Also murkface made me wonna scream when I saw the concept

#

probally a sign i need a new CPU

#

Also I like it when the threats aren't just "Hey look it's a four caster pack have fun!" In evrey pull...looking at like half of s1's dungeons

chilly coyote
#

I like s2 more than s1. But I might be biased due to playing a class I enjoy more

#

im just not a fan of that dungeon's mechanics....i hate the scaffolding dudes, and the ripsaw blade robots

just feels like there is shit everywhere

Floodhate is silly

Its a dungeon that has really grown on me. As most pain points are 100% removed by playing better.

Don't insult smooth brains by lumping them in with fury. Its insensitive!

buoyant knoll
#

Heyo, returning to Arms as an alt, is it haste dependant or do the cooldowns really not align very well? do we hold ability’s for others?

#

somehow ravenger does not align with warbreaker a lot for me

#

was not an issue in season 1 🤔

swift crown

If you press both WB and Ravager on CD Ravager ALWAYS lines up with every second WB

firing up my warrior as an alt, i see some contention between guides and archon on highest dps m+ build, dropping EP for BB. what should i do for someone who just wants to ooga booga on an alt with as simple a rotation as poss

ionic fjord
#

sir yes sir

dim basalt
#

Guides are usually up-to-date

hollow plover
#

robot > everything else

minor gust
#

you can drop EP and FB for double BB

ionic fjord
#

yeah but i dont want to sim my alts 😦 it breaks a my cardinal rule of not putting too much mental power into them

minor gust
#

Archon is fine to look at

dim basalt
#

You can drop EP + FB to lose ST and gain aoe via 2xBB (with sham) or 1x BB + BS

ionic fjord
#

ty Stjpa!

minor gust
#

you dont really lose a lot of ST with how colossus treats execute

dim basalt
#

EP doesn't feel good to play in M+ idk

ionic fjord
#

yeah tbh i havent played warr much since EP became a thing (it was a tier set first right ?) but i didn't like the sound of it for keys when it was introduced

minor gust
#

which is why ppl have dropped it but theres also nothing wrong with running the guide builds

#

the differences arent that important between the two

ionic fjord
#

rotationally BB sounds simpler tho yeah?

minor gust
#

your rotation wont change no matter if ur running EP or BB

ionic fjord
#

o ok

minor gust
#

but yeah BB has less brain thinky required

ionic fjord
#

lit thats what im here for

#

thanks gang

minor gust
#

dont have to worry about tracking EP if you arent already

Execute as col is so bad that it is still only a filler with EP

yeah fewer weakauras i have to grab the better too

oof

gone are the days of condemn op huh

eh Slayer has good emphasis on execute its fine if both hero specs are different in that regard

compact rover
# minor gust in what context

I'm using hekili and on the 5 target dummy section it never says to press execute but in ST it does. just specced arms for the first time feeling out the spec

minor gust
#

I would recommend doing your due diligence and checking out the guides first before asking these questions. But if your playing colossus M+ execute is just a slam replacement

#

basically you will only use in ST

dim basalt
#

Isn't exe just a slam replacement for Slayer too

#

Pretty much

#

Mostly because of Opportunist

latent moss
#

?

#

you press exe over all as slayer

#

and then u have some conditions

#

to press other buttons

smoky kayak
#

in the sense that you continue to use Mortal Strike and Overpower... sure Exe "replaces" Slam
in the sense that they have the same priority in the rotation, not really no

latent moss
#

op if opp and low on rage
ms if 2 ep

dim basalt
#

Makes it feel like a replacement dunno

#

Not in the literal sense ofc

#

But overall

#

Man I want Col to be good on ST but not lose exe power sadge

latent moss

idk how does it feel like a replacement when u play around it

flat willow
#

screw bloodborne, I'll put 1 point in fatality and dance of death

#

it's bad but I'm sure the dps loss can not be seen by the naked eye

smoky kayak
#

Despite the quirky mechanics, all Skullsplitter actually does is deal damage in a somewhat convoluted way

  • in S1, the sum total of that damage was higher than most of our rotational GCDs, so it was worth spending the extra talent point on
  • in S2, they buffed all our rotational abilities, so the damage they deal is much more competitive. Skullsplitter still actually deals good damage, it's just a less efficient use of a talent point
smoky kayak

fatality is one tilting ass talent

There's no world where dance of death is better than anyone gives it credit for

It lasts 2 seconds

smoky kayak
#

doesn't really matter if they get one shot or not, you still get the benefit

shadow ibex
#

The buff lasts two seconds

flat willow
#

exactly, it will feed on them for the actual targets

smoky kayak
white hedge
#

do you have a video of yourself using dance?

#

curious how you send cds

smoky kayak
#

and depending on haste shenanigans, it can actually add even more ticks of Ravager (you need pretty high haste though, likely during Hero)

shadow ibex
#

The buff lasts for two seconds, meaning it is a very very bad brutal finish

smoky kayak
#

the buff lasts 2s per target, up to 3 targets

shadow ibex
#

The extend does not apply to BS

#

It applies to ravager

smoky kayak
#

we're talking about Ravager...

fresh spire
#

👀 i dont want bs to extend anymore than it already is sir

flat willow
#

yeah we are talking about a dance of death build for colossus in m+

smoky kayak
#

nobody was talking about Bladestorm lol

fresh spire
#

😄

#

im joking

smoky kayak

I agree, the Bladestorm benefit is total dog, but then so is Bladestorm so not much changes DogeLaugh

minor gust
smoky kayak
minor gust
#

Everything about Bladestorm this expansion is dog unfortunately

smoky kayak
minor gust
#

I do like the niche potential dance has with ravager tho it just needs to be way stronger

smoky kayak
#

it either needs to be stronger, or it needs to have a baseline effect that helps it even in ST situations

#

either/or would be fine

#

like just off the top of my head, if DoD did everything it does right now and adds +2 ticks of Ravager by default... that might make it pretty decent even in ST situations

shadow ibex
#

It's at best a single MS cast assuming best possible use case. The 30 rage is beans in aoe

fresh spire
#

i think its just the way that it only gives a bonus from the killing hits of a target more so just a bonus. Makes its use only very very very very neish in a situation like a boss encounter where adds line up and die during it while not impacting your ability to own the boss too. Dropping a point on the bottom of the tree for it is already pretty sus

smoky kayak
#

exactly, it's really high opportunity cost

shadow ibex
#

The ticks of ravager aren't the source of the damage, the ms casts are

fresh spire
#

i can't ever really see being able to drop a single point on bottom of tree for it ever worth

#

When ravager itself does pretty poor damage

smoky kayak
#

that's a common problem in general, for Fury especially

shadow ibex
#

Taking another talent to make unhinged slightly better(1 more MS) in the event you get perfect usage of dance

#

Has no business being anywhere near the bottom of the tree

smoky kayak
weak wave
#

Why does this not find any weapons?

smoky kayak
#

any AoE situation where 1 target dies, it's almost a certainty that 2 will, so you're gonna get that extra MS
the haste bit is a bit fucky, but you can even get more under the right circumstances

#

again, I'm not saying the talent is amazing or competes well against other T3 talents - that part is already well established
but it still is better than people give it credit for, even if that remains very niche

shadow ibex
#

6 ticks base is 3 MS. An extra 3 is 9

smoky kayak
#

yes that's +1 MS after 2 procs

shadow ibex
#

So it's 1 additional cast. Would need 10 ticks for 5

weak wave
#

Why can't I search for 2h weapons at Top Gear sim?

smoky kayak
#

I don't know why you keep trying to explain this to me like I don't know how it works lol

#

you get 6 ticks, every other (even) tick is an MS
so DoD needs to trigger twice to get an extra MS
like I said three times now

#

like I said, 100% a translation issue - I can hop into the raidbots discord and report it for you

#

in the meantime @weak wave, you can just add items manually at the bottom of your /simc input - look them up on Wowhead to get the id (you don't actually need the name, just ID) and follow the format
should look something like
# main_hand=,id=######,ilevel=675

#

add it with the other stuff under "Gear in Bags" and it will show up alongside everything else

Alright, thanks

real quick, if you still have this open - try searching for dessia instead of dessias
