Has anyone here affected something weird with the warrior damage? Sometimes my demolish mortal strike etc deals 180k dmg instead of like lets say 6.5m as he used to

smoky kayak
#

not as far as I'm aware; more likely you're seeing another source of damage happen at the same time or some kind of enemy shield/etc

solar magnet
#

Nah, literally i can see it in the sim and details

olive night
#

are you hitting more than 8 targets with it?

solar magnet
#

Nope, it was against the single target

smoky kayak
#

why don't you share what you're seeing with the class then, instead of trying to vaguely describe it?

olive night
#

ive had some weird things with demolish with Y axis but never it hitting low numbers

smoky kayak
#

I mean there's no shot you're simming a 180k mortal strike unless your ilvl is <600
maybe you're looking at reap procs triggering from mortal strikes, idk

#

it'd be helpful if you'd show us the thing you're confused by, because otherwise we can only guess

grand idol
#

That also sounds like a damage reduction effect. Specifically something like first boss workshop.

smoky kayak
#

yeah, or the last section of trash, though this guy insisted it's represented in sims/details as well, which is super sus

Hey all!
I need some help about dungeon route simming.
When i try to use dungeon route sim, it gives me an error : Error: Unexpected parameter 'Shaynemail:87160108:Humanoid|War_Lynx_1:29053369:Beast|War_Lynx_2:29053369:Beast'. Expected format: name=value
this data generated from mdt addon with mdt sim wa and i don't understand how its format is wrong.
Probably im doing something wrong, i was using route sims 2 years ago but i forget it a bit i guess.

spiral coral

#

Sounds like maybe you need to update your MDT add-on maybe data wrong, or just follow instructions correctly

#

Note MDT simming is nice, but kinda scuffed sometimes for comparing talents and trinkets (it sends on cd sometimes end of packs etc whereas you would save it) so still do some st and 6-8t Sims to compare stuff

simple vortex
#

If im not wrong the only difference from video on mine is i was using gear compare instead of top gear if it changes something

viral locust
#

You pasting it into footer right?

#

And is MDT and the mdtsim wa updated?

simple vortex
#

Yeap checked again now

viral locust
#

Idk maybe re do your route, make sure it's not got any blank pulls in it

#

Also I wouldn't probably use priory its a very pad heavy dungeon to compare talents/gear

#

Use something with like a mix of small and big pulls maybe rookery/darkflame

simple vortex
#

I just took random raider io route to try it out if it works but same things happens. I miss something but can't find it.

Hi all asking again because I didn't see a response the other day. When I follow the normal m+ rotation it seems like ravager has fallen off when I'm at the end of my big collateral damage sweeping strikes phase

#

Is that how we are supposed to play it, and just raw dog the big cleave with no ravager down ?

alpine falcon
#

Rav is 8 seconds buff. So make sure you cast sweeping strikes before and start stacking until you have 7 sec left on sweeping, than just pop rav and all cd’s

spiral coral
#

The extra movement from the new backpack is actually so useful

#

Thought it was a gimmick till I started using it in dungeons lol

hey yall, starting to dust the cobwebs off my Mag'har orc arms warrior. are there any cooldowns that can be macro'd together? 2 or more abilities in a single button would be amazing

so

Blademasters torment has GOTTA be

worth more then 1 point in Cruel strikes

#

for m+

#

or at least warlords

minor gust
#

uhhh yeah whos saying its not?

magic canopy
#

me

#

(goober)

#

tho i wonder if blademasters is more overall

#

then warlords

minor gust
#

me no read but playing either the torments is the norm

#

not cruel strikes

magic canopy
#

yeah i think i just had a bad talent tree

#

and didnt look at it for a bit

#

ngl

minor gust
#

yeah no one is playing cruel strikes

#

yeah right now the only variation I see is EP/FB vs 2BB and Warlords vs Blademasters

tacit crystal
#

bring back old warlords tormetn

#

bring back df ww

#

bring back tom

minor gust

we dont want Tom dont bring him up

doesnt even fit well with slayer cuz fucking SD doesnt count as consumed rage

if u had any points in cruel strikes keks

last I checked it was 9%

latent moss
#

ye im ethical i spam ms on prio target

#

blademasters is giga tho

minor gust

wdym press MS inbetween cleave cds

#

ez

tacit crystal

okay what if sd gave rage to tom

latent moss
#

not my problem exhil procs 5 times in a row

that would be cool i think

tacit crystal
#

i love having 20s cs with 40% increased str

#

🙂

minor gust

you only had that in execute

latent moss

i love when the actual cd comes after my cd

tacit crystal
#

only time arms is fun anyways

#

real

#

but bring back df ww

#

the one we have now is so sad

minor gust
#

oh boy I get 2 seconds of CS and TOM stacking together

tacit crystal
#

you never press that button

latent moss
#

skill issue

#

i had more

tacit crystal
#

chaining tom and cs

tacit crystal
#

what are changes arms needs RIGHT NOW

#

i vote old warlords torment

latent moss
#

no

#

arms needs a real cd

minor gust
#

If its not a full on brand new vision rework like MM idc

latent moss
#

not a 20% dmg increase for 20s on a 1:30

minor gust
#

Arms has needed God for awhile now

#

ppl just forget that because they like seeing the big numbers right now

#

its a lil degen that all our aoe is cleave and whatever we press inbetween cleaves doesnt really matter

tacit crystal
#

sd casts tc

#

boom

latent moss
#

we arent a press st spells while x buff is running to deal aoe

#

having a dedicated aoe spell is fine

#

when the kit revolves around it

#

like it does now

tacit crystal
#

bring back ww

latent moss
#

nice bait

tacit crystal
#

what

latent moss
#

ill take cleave over dreadnaught

spamming op to deal aoe damage is fucking cooked

with ava

#

12 mil

tacit crystal
#

i hit a 23 stack cleave

#

it did 0 damage

minor gust
# latent moss why

idk I dont think its a massive deal just a lil degen. Like things like DN should be better and maybe adding something like S2 DF tier set to MS giving a lil frontal cleave to it. I always feel weird about pressing ST buttons in AOE.

latent moss

not much we can tell you without any context to what your skill level is. Best we can do is tell you to review guides. I suggest watching gameplay of really good players like Critcake or Bizentein and comparing it to yours

is it good ST dmg with this gear?

why do you have only one crafted item

Does the tier only give 2% haste or is it 2% haste per stack of winning streak?

only the crafted weapon but makes sense if you made a prot weapon

is there a crit % arms wants to be at or does it not really matter

just sim and go with that

Why does the wowhead page and bloodmallet show different gear as bis?

sacred zodiac

where does bloodmallet claim to have a bis list

robust cypress
#

In the profile

#

where does it say bis

robust cypress
#

Why wouldn't bloodmallet sim in bis?

sacred zodiac
#

idk they're maintained by different people and bis lists are kinda fake anyways

robust cypress
#

#

Just odd to see 2 different gear setups

guide writers are forced to make those since they generate alot of clicks

Weird, makes me unsure whether to catalyze a chest or helmet now

improvised trinket with house of cards is always better sims than eye of kezan/house of cards

I need some feelycraft advice. I main fury, got a mythic track wep in vault, although I did craft a 2H with ascendance.

theres zero reason to ww as arms. if u want aoe u spec cleave. if u need to cleave in st u bs or sweeping strikes prio targets

it says Replaces Whirlwind

U said u had 2 weapons of high quality why not use both?

#

This is arms channel

Still takr weapon for fury?

remote ledge
#

No for arms

slow saddle
#

I mean recrafting 2 pieces

#

At some point is prob worth it

latent moss
slow saddle
#

So when u got 1 more craft

latent moss
#

u have 3 sparks

#

2 for weap 1 for offpiece

slow saddle
#

U can

compact geyser
#

when u dont need st in raid then swap to 2x linings

whole steppe
#

how do you manage demolish with warbreaker

slow saddle
#

So in 2 weeks craft the 2 pieces

compact geyser
#

demolish in wb window

latent moss
#

for arms

slow saddle
#

Removw acendance from weap change off piece to dawn//dusk

latent moss
#

and aoe

remote ledge
#

Ok let me rephrase it

Is no ascendance but 3ilvl more worth even if it sims less for now in keys as arms, bcos of downtime and dropping ascendance stacks
Not recrafting or anything

whole steppe
#

so when you start to pack you don't wb instantly

latent moss
#

u craft weapon cause of fury and its ur highest impact slot

whole steppe
#

you wait a little to stack then you do

#

right?

latent moss
#

so u get the most power early on

compact geyser
#

oh ur just gonna raw dog it? then id think not

remote ledge
latent moss
#

no way to know

#

what else do u hav ein vault

#

if its between socket or some random piece and weap take weap

compact geyser

#trusttherobot

Well check ya uptime in keys?

latent moss
#

how are u opening the vault now wtf

thick kelp

But in gen id wager the higher the keys the better acendance

Unless u die

#

As u bring a big stack into bosses

#

does TC apply rend intellegently? (apply to mobs w/o it)

remote ledge
#

Why do you talk about sims or vault, when the sentence says : I have the weapon, and I wanna know how it compares knowing things you CAN'T sim

latent moss
#

ascendance will fall off

#

u will skip some pack

#

and it will fall off

remote ledge
#

I don't talk about lining

latent moss
#

or a lot of walking like top

slow saddle
#

Thats th ething

#

He is talkin acendance vs 3 ilvl weap

latent moss
#

ascendance

#

at the end of the day

#

it doesnt matter anyway

slow saddle
#

My point

latent moss
#

its so close

remote ledge
#

Bcos it sims higher, but sims are 5min no movement constant, not hectic m+ pulls

latent moss
#

if the dung has a lot of downtime play myth 2h idk

remote ledge
#

Thus the question

slow saddle
#

3 ilvls + thread barely beats acendance

#

Or well isnt that with bis mythic as well?

latent moss
#

lining with any myth 2h is better at everything

#

its just a matter of getting the 2t

#

2h*

compact geyser
#

big weap go burr what else needs to be known ?

slow saddle
#

Well linin is also simmed so if we talkin feelycraft

remote ledge
#

Never talked about lining but whatever

slow saddle
#

It can drop off during cds

#

And u get fuckef

latent moss
#

its not about ur question anymore

compact geyser
#

we just assumed that in general principle the linings were implied

latent moss
#

ye

#

cause its myth 2h + lining vs ascendance

#

is usually the question

latent moss
#

as long as the uptime isnt horrendous

#

which it shouldnt be

#

cause u are a warrior

#

its better

compact geyser
#

i went writhing acsend because i lost the week one lotto so now i have big axe but next spark im swapping to lining.

latent moss
#

vers bsl for me is like

#

almost 1.5% increased dmg

#

thats how useless embellishments are

#

reason why u craft ascend is cause weapon is the highest impact slot and it helps with early prog

#

if u dont get one week 2 obv

#

but even then u could craft it for fury

#

since there is no reason to play arms this raid except mugzee maybe

compact geyser
#

675 crafted weap is less than 1% downgrade from full upgraded mythic BIS so im sitting nice even if weapon shows up in vault

slow saddle
#

Yeah, ill obviously also recraft once i get a 2h from vault

#

In 2 weeks even

latent moss
#

1.5k vers keks

slow saddle
#

Without weapon

latent moss
#

embellishments fell off so hard

100% embellish needs.a buff

does raidbots track the special effect of best in slots?

i have a 658 best in slots but got a hero track cicruit breaker, im bout to sim it at 665 but idk how accurate it'll be

potent fossil
#

idk in the past sim hasn't always tracked special effects correctly

halcyon breach
#

That usually would be the case very early on when the effects were a bit ambigious

#

Like Gavel from Jailer

potent fossil
#

fair nuff

#

bis is just stats

halcyon breach
#

Correct

#

It also correctly plays around having an on-use trinket included in the sim, if you got one

potent fossil
#

neat, i do not unfortunately

halcyon breach
#

Well they both incur the trinket CD, so you could argue it's fortunate

potent fossil
#

trinked cd's are brutal

#

im p sure like the only reason things like improvised seaforium pacemaker or whatever isn't good is bc of the cd being 2 mins

#

just dont line up w cds

#

I could be dead wrong though

#

if it were 2.5 mins it'd be better

halcyon breach
#

Pacemaker is good?

#

It's also not an on-use trinket, and the passive cycles every 1 minute

You're likely thinking of Signet from Priory

well that too

but yes

i was reading signets desc but was looking at the pic of pace

maybe when a patch or expansion is very new (as in, the first week) something will be broken, but certainly not by this point
or if it's a fairly obscure effect, like world quest only drop that isn't obtained at a high enough level to normally care about

hey guys couple questions for m+ colossus rotation

  • without EP, do we overpower before execute?
  • with overpower proc, do we press that over ms?
  • in aoe opener i usually see people ravager before demolish, could we instead use ravager as the last cd so we have more mbg time?
tacit crystal
#

without ep:
ms > op > exe

#

what overpower proc

molten marsh
#

thanks! tactitian i think is the name

tacit crystal
#

you still send ms over op

#

when op resets

molten marsh
#

oo ok

tacit crystal
#

and its because if you send ravager after demolish

#

you have less time with mbg due to haste from cs

molten marsh
#

wait cs gives haste?? brb google lol

tacit crystal
#

in for the kill

molten marsh
#

oh i didnt realize it always gave at least 10%

tacit crystal
#

you could do it

molten marsh
#

i dont see why not to still ravager last tbh

tacit crystal
#

if you are trying to go for one big cleave

#

but the duration is shorter so you can fit in less cleaves

#

which usually leads to less damage

molten marsh
#

my bad homie im missing something

#

how is the duration shorter?

tacit crystal
#

ravager duration gets reduced with haste

molten marsh
#

if its just demolish or ravager first, if we cast ravager first, dont we spend some mbg time casting demolish?

#

and all of this is always after warbreaker right

#

ty btw didnt realize the duration reduced

tacit crystal
#

ideally you should always open with:
charge cleave tc rav cs demo at 10

molten marsh
#

ohh dang you cleave that early

#

ill go target dummy and just try ravager early tbh i still dont see it but maybe i just have to try it more

#

thx gio

warped solstice
#

I usually charge -> TC -> cleave. How much of a DPS loss will that be?

unkempt wren
#

doubt its much. its my go to because im used to charge, rend, roar from raiding

smoky kayak
# languid bison this talents is good?

both are fine, some like 2x bloodborne more because it's a little more dummy (no confusion over Exe)
I actually found it weirdly more rage starved since you do occasionally use OP during AoE though
1 BB / 1 BSurge is also an option if you really want the extra rage though

smoky kayak
#

overall it should work out about the same

teal fossil
#

The ratio should be exact the same (subject to ping)

#

But yeah

wanton frost
smoky kayak
#

they're all pretty close, so likely some gear flucutation

#

M+ is not an environment which lends itself to exacting sims though, so I really wouldn't think too hard about it

teal fossil
#

crazy that surge is simming better on st for people

#

Oh

#

In aoe I see

smoky kayak
#

that +/- 1% difference isn't going to actually translate in an environment as chaotic and constantly changing as M+ anyway

wanton frost
#

Yeah, I figured that'd be the case. I'm not too worried about it, I doubt it'll matter at most levels of play

#

It does also sim better in single for me though, at least it did last time I did a st sim

#

I mostly do dungeon slice sims though, since m+ is my focus and my computer struggles so much in raids that fps fluctuations affect my dps more than any talent loadout ever could

smoky kayak
#

dungeon slice may be a little weird, since the APL doesn't try to hold cooldowns for it

#

it kinda simulates a dungeon in which you just blow everything on CD, rather than explicitly time for big packs or w/e (which arguably is more realistic for the majority of players in average keys, even if it's not necessarily optimal)

wanton frost
#

yknow I was curious if there were better ways to sim for m+ since I don't know much about how it works behind the scenes

minor gust
#

Min maxing how you use collateral will determine how much dmg your gonna put out in overall

wanton frost
#

but mostly I just need it to be good enough to compare different talent setups and gear

smoky kayak
#

nobody really wants to go through the effort of creating a truly dynamic action list which holds CDs for certain timings or pack sizes, it's really, really a lot more complicated than it sounds

and historically doesn't actually change results all that much either, even if the resulting damage number may seem a little more right

wanton frost
#

oh I don't doubt that at all

#

90% of the value for 10% of the effort is more than fine by me

smoky kayak
teal fossil
#

Simming for m+ is like a religion at this point

wanton frost
#

also as an aside, is there a good way to see how much extra damage you're getting from collateral damage from logs

#

not super familiar with them

minor gust
smoky kayak
#

the important part of simming isn't really to get the most accurate number for what you're trying to do - that's more of a byproduct
the point is to establish a common baseline which you can then adapt to whatever you're trying to do, because there are simply too many situations these days to come up with a truly accurate sim for each

minor gust
#

but if you can get away with it, its very strong

hexed snow
#

Mythic stix... Worth even going arms for it?

minor gust
#

if adds just get obliterated and you wanna pump boss with slayer sure

teal fossil
#

Archi do you personally use dungeon slice for m+

#

Or no

smoky kayak
#

every once in awhile, but I don't really sim multitarget that much in general

teal fossil
#

Agreed

#

Multi is too volatile

smoky kayak
#

only things I ever really look at with multitarget sims are trinkets and occasional stat plots

teal fossil
#

I just find it rude for some people here saying slice is bad and should never be used

#

Just discrediting the work put into it

minor gust
#

I wouldnt say its bad its just should not be taken 100% literally which a lot of people do

#

they Sim and dont even think

teal fossil
#

Ye

#

People focus way too much on the raw dps the sim outputs

molten marsh
#

my record is 83m 😄

smoky kayak
teal fossil
#

Exactly my point, I think simming dungeon slice is still “good enough” with respect to trinket/gearing decisions

#

Which is all you need

smoky kayak
#

and that's another layer to consider w/ sims - are we simming for whatever is most optimal, or for what is most realistic? This is a question I run into a lot when it comes to implementing really niche tech that is technically an increase, but places disproportionately more burden on the player trying to execue it

Hi all, I for some reason I cannot cast Heroic Leap and I would like to know if anyone has faced this and fixed this. Whenever I try to leap I always get this message.

  • I am not using any macro
  • I've disabled all addons (including WA addon) and still get same message
  • logged out, logged in different toon, logout and log back in warrior

any feedback to fix the glorious leap would be helpful

Are you on a roof? I saw something in forums saying it was bugged or something

minor gust
#

Ive heard something like that aswell

I've heard that as well but no I'm not on a roof atm

#

I've even left Dornogal to try to test this

uncut gazelle

Is there any chance that Windsinger's Citrine doesn't sim correctly? I have simmed it when it was giving me haste, and when it was giving me crit by modifying my gear before I equipped it and both times it had the same numbers. Also it's losing dps to Legendary's Citrine via sims by about 5k

no clue all I can think of restart the game or try it as a cursor macro

restarting the game as the cursor macro is not working either

what is like, the expected damage i should be doing on arms with hc prog? ik theres a lot of questions that need to be answered for that but ive literally grey parsed every encounter so far and we are at gally. but my damage is still in-line with the other dps. also this is my first time really raiding or trying to improve in wow so im sure theres a lot of info im missing but i feel like i should be putting out better dps

dim basalt
#

Not really something we can tell because we dont know your gear or anything

minor gust
#

practicing and executing your rotation perfectly and maintaining uptime on boss as much as possible is about 97% of your dmg

#

if your doing both of these things well you should never be below a purple parse

fresh spire
minor gust
#

uhhh

#

playing a M+ build in raid will def make you do no dmg

lyric horizon
#

oh

#

im stupid

#

sec

#

was doing m+ when i ran that lol

minor gust
#

but again refer to what I said early

lyric horizon
#

yea i mean, like

#

idk how to explain it

dim basalt
#

Very optimal damage on gally is about sim dps + 10%

#

Prob bit more actually

lyric horizon
#

for example this is my normal logs, left isnt sorted by ilvl while right is

#

but on heroic im getting no where near the same numbers

dim basalt
#

Without seeing logs Im just gonna assume there are a bunch of rotational mistakes

#

Or just lots of empty / unused gcds

grand idol
#

heroic fights are longer and there are more mechanics, both lower dps.

dim basalt
#

Not really no

lyric horizon
#

ive looked at wowanalyzer at the timeline and some things im not really sure how to decode lol. like this for example was at the start of a pull but ive heard that you want to apply exe early for the buff

#

im almost certain that wowanalyzers timeline is broken actually since all my errors have that as a message for essentially any ability

#

like surely slam isnt a prio over refreshing jug here right?

dim basalt
#

@lean geode

dim basalt
#

Pressing exe for no reason does not gain anything

lyric horizon
#

should i link my warcraft logs for heroic in general since logs are broken up into a few different ones

#

yea, that makes sense

dim basalt
minor gust
#

But again after seeing this your problems are most likely rotational and uptime issues

lyric horizon
#

when you say second embellishment what exactly do you mean, sorry again still learning all this stuff

minor gust
#

So notice how you put the Ascendance mod on your weapon

#

That's an embellishment you can have two

#

Specifically with ascendance you want the writhing armor embellishment to buff it

lyric horizon
#

ok so does that mean i want writhing armor on a non-weapon piece of gear then? i think when i originally looked at archon for the weapon craft it only had 1 embellishment listed

eager nexus
#

world server down?

lyric horizon
#

oh im just dumb, i see

minor gust
#

Prob only had the one because we didn't have the sparks to craft wep + 1 armor till this week

lyric horizon
#

i read the most popular and just ran with it

eager nexus
#

Do we have a crit breakpoint we need to hit

lyric horizon
#

but also i guess that wouldnt matter if i would have been held back by sparks loool

minor gust
#

I would focus on getting your info from any of the guides in DPS FAQ using archon alone won't give you the full picture

lyric horizon
#

yea that would def help, and also for uptime / rotational error what is like, a feasible % for most ability uptimes? like on our mugzee kill i have a few 90-100%, a few 70-80%, and a lot of 50-60%

#

i assume i wanna shoot for 90% usually?

smoky kayak
#

all depends on the buff/ability; it's really not that universal

lyric horizon
#

i see, well thanks for the help everyone, its a lot to take in lmfao

minor gust
#

Meant more as time spent hitting the boss and having no empty globals than buff uptime

#

Which will vary depending on mechanics but a lot of new players tend to play extra safe when they could be cheating a whole lot more on a lot of mechanics which adds up over the fight

lyric horizon
#

yea that actually makes sense, i do find that the balance of doing mechs / surviving / doing damage is hard to get down

smoky kayak
#

survival is always more important

lyric horizon
#

yea i try to prioritize living then doing mechs then dps

#

but it just feels like and is 100% me just playing badly

minor gust
#

Truth but as you get into wanting to min max your dmg more learning what you can and can't get away with

smoky kayak
#

not wrong, but that makes up like.. the last 10% of your damage

minor gust
#

But yeah if you are progging a fight as a guild survival trumps all you can hyper min max your dmg once your on farm

smoky kayak
#

not the 80-90% which is just gear, rotation, and timing

wanton sierra
#

hey how do i use best in slot w?its 2min cd

#

should i macro it with something

minor gust
#

Always felt like it's more important than gear because at the end of the day just getting high ilvl matters more than specific items or stats most of the time

smoky kayak
wanton sierra
#

how about as colossus arms ?

smoky kayak
#

Well, gear makes up a huge difference until it doesn't, once you get within the same range as everyone else then it; excepting a few pieces (weapon, overly emphasized trinkets) of course

smoky kayak
# wanton sierra how about as colossus arms ?

if you're using another on-use trinket, can macro it w/ CS, WB, or Ravager
if you're not, then you probably just wanna time it with Avatar or Ravager
Ravager is probably your best catch-all

In short, some things are manually handled by dedicated modules (like execute usage for slayer fury) and some are automatically handled by event processors (like the arms rotation check)

That's also why those inefficient cast messages are weird - they're automatically generated based on the APL conditions. So "...because don't your target was below 35% HP" comes from the condition.not(condition.inExecute()) in the code, which is needed because both simc and wowhead guides have separate APLs for above and below execute range, but wowanalyzer only supports a single APL. That example isn't actually that crazy in terms of wording, but the mfe/sd/jugg execute one, opportunist, etc can get a little wacky

#

I'm aware of the issue with SD duration but frankly it's of relatively minor consequence and it's rather tricky to fix because of the log events I alluded to. It's definitely possible and I do plan on it, but I've been busy

You just normal rotation and it will hit 10 fast

I mean... If you press MS you reduce Demos CD. But iam not pressing MS on CD, just with 2 EPs.

Of course you press Demo with 10, but iam thinking and reducing the CD
