But one arm...
We dont do guild alt runs

Im suffering from success really
My alt has myth ML ring and needs mugzee neck...
The other has myth top ring and needs coc ring (hehe) / rik neck...
But itβs kinda grief to play alt warr on last 2/4 for vault
I guess it wont matter in a month
Ez hack, just have 2 warriors
swordish exists
but they said nah bc people need to fill vaults
stix seems barely puggable
3 seems fine
and sprocket is prob fine enough if theyve killed before
I mean maybe first 3? But Stix and Sproket certainly need more coordination than PUGs might want to put forth
One arm prob easier than sprocket
After the ilvl jump patch

Can just skip some coin overlaps with more dam
Polarity / mines / drills on the other hand...
Wouldn't be surprised if people just sold lockouts of OAB
Using the raid skip
Imagine a world where 6/8m pug is first 3 + last 3
its jastor + coc

Yah thinking of no jastor
coc ring super bis though

Coc ring 
i didnt need on it bc i got hc version before and mw needed it
i mean this is a great abbreviation
I cant even skip rik neck and use boe neck + top ring to offset haste loss because that puts me at 23 haste which feels unplayable with how SD/jugg works

coc ring somehow didnt sim as a massive increase over circlet which i just think is wrong
luckily my neck is the cinderbrew so it has some haste
might have been giving me crit instead of haste on the circlet
lmfao
i was also turbo running it
Quick q is slayer arms viable in m+? Saw on murlok somes notably critcake
For m+, what droptimizer sims should I do? I know that stats are super weird rn, so I know that I should keep updating sims
5m5t
but for colossus i just go by the rule of stack as much crit as possible
because crit is like extremely good for colossus
I do play colossus in m+
yeah so i assume you gear for m+
Yea exactly
bruh i can't tell if your name is supposed to be racist or not
What does it mean
guess that's a yes
Why doest just make Rend an AoE ability via talents? Thunder clap as an AoE Rend doesn't make sense to me
How my feet can make people bleed?
I swear it's not. Long story tho lol
lmao
The game ainβt supposed to be realistic
just sim both single target and 5 or 10 targets (with reasonable m+ buffs) and make a decision based on that
Thank you
sharp toe nails???
good for him
hahah xD
Quick q,should i rock double dawnthread or go one w/ the double embelish?
AYY LMAO
Hello guys, I am brand new warrior. I rerolled from rogue/mage played only m+ around 15-16's but I just love how warriors look and the aestethics. My question is, how hard is warrior to learn? Is it complicated? I feel a bit button floated atm when I just started, thanks! π And have a great day
you rerolled from those classes into a worse class, itβs not too bad once you get used to your abilities.. dunno why you wanna torture yourself though warr dps is pretty mid
Do you mean current 15's-16's or was this before the key level squish?
Either way, not complicated, wowhead guide covers all the start up you need for your rotation and yes it's a little bit button bloated
That's some sacrilegious stuff you're saying there
if you craft a weapon go with ascension
otherwise go dawn/dusk
Yes π I've played those 2 for so long now
Feels bad though Iβm starting to fall off compared to the other dps in my m+ group. I know they will keep me bc we are guildies / friends but they could have a much better time with a MM hunter or UHDK
When are you getting banned
I mean this season π
I'm gonna go ahead and read those guides right away!
Idk bro like, warrior can do 15s and 16s without being a liability
idk find a way
to get me banned while im unsubbed
If you need some inspiration check out some of Crits' key videos
I mean from the discord
im above the law
Donβt let me steer you though warrior is and will always be my favorite class in terms of fun / thematic
β€οΈ β€οΈ β€οΈ
Yeah we are pushing 15s atm and crit / noxiv are outliers not the norm..
Ofc but mm and uhdk at same lvl do em better?
By a decent margin
Esp in pugs id reckon
That's what I meant for inspiration
10-4,cheers
Yeah but then you have to play MM or UHDK and not the best class in the game

Ye im only at 14s atm
And if they best me., i just think ye well i gice u 5% ap
What do u give me!
No utility classes!
Don't forget our extremely gutted and nearly useless rally!
that is not what most people do
for m+
speak for yourself only
watch madox's arms guide video from 1 or 2 months ago, also read the comments as they give more context. That video single handedly sets you up for very solid play
you just need to make sure to practice afterwards
i dont think i've played slayer in a single key this season
murlok is drunk
all the slayer warrior m+ stats are full ST raid builds, my guess is that people just forgot to swap talents before key start and then swapped during the key or something along those lines
It probably took some where you logged out as Slayer after doing a key
I mean in a 10
Take cleave + longer sweep
Be prio master?
Will u suck prob yes. But will u clear yes
Actually now i gotta try a pug 10 .. top mby
spear no rend
2x ct ep
long sweep blademasters
im confused when fighting bosses whether I should press mortal strike or execute (ST) , should I do 2x execute then mortal strike, or pump out one
After thorough simming and constantly being around 2.48m st I've come to want to try a 38% crit, 25% haste build with seaforium ( my connection in aus doesn't allow me to make most of Gcd ) any thoughts on it?
Execute unless you already have 2x stacks of it
execute execute then mortal strike?
Correct
kk ty
The damage difference is very noticeable, especially if the Ms crits with the stacks
ye
i feel like in a dungeon my cds are always misaligned. should i be holding any cds like demolish or collosus smash if avtar is like 20 cds left on cd
Assuming you're in combat during all that time you should be able to send both of those with 20 left on avatar cd
20 duration on avatar means you got 40 seconds
Both of those will be up in 40. Twice if you're in combat easily
If you ever think about holding shit remember avatar lasts long as hell
Obv don't send if you might get targeted with gtfo mech like garbage balls in 2 seconds
yea that makes sense ty
Hello fellow warriors π
Back in the game since S1 DF and wanna try out arms this time around !
What guide/ build would you recommend for M+ and Raid ?
Wowhead / icy ? ...
Thanks a lot !
any of them work
Only reason not to ms is op proc
If 2 ep
Before spending collateral, is it worth spend 2 GCDs to buff it with 2x overpower?
yes
100% yes
wdym
If 2nd ep procs oppertunist u send that b4 ms
does the apl do that?
I think so but dno
yes
Reasoning should be proc shouldbt be wasted
APL sends Opportunist over MS assuming you're not at 2x Martial Prowess
That
And regardless of rage if playing Bladestorm
I hate that we are locked to bladestoem
We arent but u know
Wasting so many hero talents
Let talents work for rav
And make bladestorm be better per target up to 7
I just dislike loosin control in arms coz bladestorm lasts forever
tbh idk what that is lol
Slayer talent
if I were to create wrists what would be the reagents used on it ?
d-slice telling me to drop cerce's for 665 ring.. hmm
doesnt seem right idk but it says its +33k more like this
yay arms rework 11.1.7
wat
For the people in here who do splits each tier what class do you use? Ive been asked to get one ready and im not sure what class to choose (have to be melee)
Troll warrior animations are sick
What's your stat weights with this setup?
Not sure Iβm pretty unfamiliar with simming, how do I set stat weights?
Oh you mean what my stats look like with it?
32% crit 28% haste 26% mastery
another warrior
monk/dh for me
if I were to create wrists what would be the reagents used on it ?
Honestly not bad, arms you can get away with dropping siren ring but put it into play and see how it goes? Keeping in mind that sims are computer generated with optimal performance and aren't reflective of how you play, curious to see how much the dps actually changes
Like optional reagents? If you have ascendance wep go writhing armor band
What
same class will be a surefire way of having enough class knowledge to not grief splits
Early splits as in hc?
Or late?
Same answer
Arms warrior full zug
Kk ty !
prolly gonna get forced into pwar 
Then answer is rogueπ€£
rogue with bad gear at that
yeah normal/hc splits first few weeks of a tier, never done it before so thought I would ask some experienced people
I mean in splits normally ppl just have same chsrs?
if you want to put in the least effort play the same class twice
otherwise just play what you like
I mean u could just take what ever is op i guess but dno what that is
no they dont
except like worldfirst guilds
Then id just make an alt that compliments what ever guild setup u have
In case u gotta bring it suddenly
mutilate wait for energy
mutilate wait for energy
cba
for arms warrior what talent can i drop to take wrecking throw for rookery?
None?
you'd have to drop 2 talents since you'd be required to spec into intimidating as well
or no sry, into honed reflexes*
how much crit above the DR is generally acceptable?
π ask π the π robot π what π item π does π more π damage π
people who parrot that are more of a robot than that thing could ever be
listen
are you thinking of using different items?
what to craft?
just sim it
genuinely
that will give you a more accurate answer than any person could give you
I miss the age of critical thinking
Theres no caps any more.m8
Genuinely asking, why should someone go out of their way to calculate the optimal amount of stats for a certain set of gear, with how much time and effort it'd also take to get to some possibly somewhat reliable answer, when you could just use raidbots instead to arrive at a quicker, and better, answer?
No 8% hit chance or arp
But as a general rule
As slayer just take crit-haste
If u never wanna sim. U prob fine for the content u do
then what does the true stat value addon show?
Lies
not entirely accurate information
Problem with those is when u add a stat u also subtract 1. Then the stat weight can differ
Also simmin is just so easy
..what does that haveto do with an adon the displays secondary statistics DR points?
Well its irrelevant info
If bot still wants haste even at 20% r
Who cares?
Exactly
Either u trust bot
Or just go crit haste
And take mastery - versa when u must
im using colosus m+ build, and both mastery and vers are at ~2000 at 673 ilvl
which strikes me as wrong
me when that doesnt matter
ive read about it but im still unsure how you go about execute phase on colossus arms
esp in aoe
Well
how aoe is aoe
you dont do exe on aoe
its only use in colosus is to generate overpower resets
execute replaces slam as the filler while playing colossus arms build
hi
hi gio
out of curiousity, what content do you imagine im doing
i legit stopped simming 3 weeks ago
15s 16s
you're probably pugging 2 mythic bosses
simming does nothing when i just send crests on any m items
real
@hollow plover its like you have a trojan running on my pc
im stealing the gif
only point to sim atm is new trinket or moving tier
Nah i actually sim what to craft n shit when im boutta craft
nah
but like 95% of the time theres only one path to go
just send crit mast on low ilvl pieces
and now im missing tier cloak and wrists?
yo gio
do u own pummel party
no sir
shyte
gio do u wanna sword fish dance the jungle
Guys, can i replace Rend in ST rotation with Thunderclap?
yea
you lose like
500 dmg
Is there any difference between them?
Oh ty
nah you can easily just to tclap
Too much buttons
i dont know what that is bud
did u do the darkfuse rep grind for that one tmog coat
i wonder what i should do keys on when the crests get uncapped
i think i should do mage bc it has more mythic track
is dungeon slice or 5patch/5min the go-to for m+ sims?
whne are you fighting 5 targets for 5 minutes straight
for 5 minutes
5min sims just tells u to go kezan
Ye so if u wanna more
Do
1m + 5m sim 5t
Shows u ya burst but also shows u trinkets
What's the point of Slam?
It's like they wanna remove it from 4 expacs ago, but they cant
I understand to use it when MS/OP is off but at 40% haste do you even use it anymore
ok so we remove slam
and at the start of next expansion
people with zero haste gonna ask to have slam back
i'm getting it right?
sounds about right
No idea, asking about debloating and avoiding noob trap skills
where is a trap in filler skill?
it is literally there to press when you can't press anything else
Yes you use slam
heyo, does dreadnaught stack with the tier set?
I feel like I Slam quite a bit especially in ToP
Good button
Slam Spam in DF was⦠something else
Just remove it and let you exe always
Not like execute does any damage
Need 15 stacks and a hero spec to make it hit harder than OP
i mean in df you slammed less than now. coz tc and ww(with big ww) guaranteed tactician
rip big ww
Oh yeaaah it was ww spam lol
I would like this
guys
what pots shall i use in dungs
crit or mastery
i think that mastery is better on more adds and crit on single
thank god that im so smart and answered my question alone
Alchemical Chaos for Flask, Tempered Potions for Combat.
Idk if Iβd call it spam
Itβs once every 12 seconds
im kinda new to arms (super rarely play it) but im playing it for 1arm bandit and mugzee.
how much Kelpfist dummy dps should arms be doing approx. w/ arms gear (671) im doing 2.35M dps but that's w/ most of it in execute b/c the guy dies super fast. i stayed on the dummy until i did 1B overall damage
am i playing it wrong or is that normal
Slam appears in a single tooltip across the whole spec tree and it's fob. Whole button gotta go
Burn it down
fuck saaaake
finally killed mugzee in a pug
on the kill where I fucked up
15 parse for me
as is tradition
more slam talents, got it 
We just got rid of slam talents
Arms is decent just keep up jugger stacks
Also vs what?
Arms vs fury? Or other specs
keep jug?

I know how to make slam better
we gonna rename it to heroic strike
new icon is optional
fury yeah
100% opposite here
Found their stance before going silent crazy to think they could have just avoided the backlash but scarizard had to be a twat.
things change
Yeah and they can be changed for the better with enough backlash
It's fair for lfr to get heroic but a heroic raider can't have access to mythic loot ?
Well yes
Fair imo
I think the argument is that the gulf between LFR and Heroic is not so big as the gulf between Heroic and Mythic (which is not to say that LFR is difficult by any means, so much as that Heroic is just extremely low effort at this point)
As well as the impact of said gear going forward into the next season
And if they find that it's too impactful you balance the game around it or nerf the old items like they always have done...
well it sounds like they already did
but by that I didn't mean the items themselves are too strong, I meant the already given answer that a typically normal or heroic mode player having the last tier's best Mythic items probably aren't going to replace it for all of the following season
which creates a problem with the progression curve that actually is kinda difficult to solve
- you can nerf the item for everyone, which obviously affects a lot more people
- you can increase the ilvl gap between last season and the next, which obviously affects a lot more people (and introduces other content-scaling concerns)
You just increase the tuning of the dungeons and raids. The only reason they are doing this is to sell more wow tokens so people buy boosts.
what does the difficulty of the dungeons and raids have to do with anything? I'm talking about the gear progression curve, upgrading from an item of the previous tier to one of the next tier
and that's a particularly craven way of looking at things, but sales are going to happen with or without this system, and players who wouldn't have been buying sales anyway aren't even going to be able to buy enough tokens to afford one unless the floor falls out hard
(there is a limit on how many tokens you can buy)
I mean who thinks ppl can afford mythic boosts
Ppl say it like normal players got 15-25m laying around
Or buy the tokens req for that
I dont think heroic only players should be able to get mythic gallywix loot in a real season like this
I do also think adding a way to increase the heroic version of the dinar item only to mythic once you kill the mythic version would also be nice qol
well we had 1
they removed it
i dont think it was used in any content in the game while it was around
Or mandatory
I mean certainly some people do and will buy boosts... but they were probably already buying boosts anyway
the players who don't normally make tons of gold and don't normally buy boosts are probably not going to find much success funding their boost with WoW Tokens though, given that you are limited on how many tokens you can buy and the general Mythic sale price is dramatically higher
Updates section still grayed out so sad
If an lfr can have heroic track loot a heroic raider can have mythic ilvl loot simple.
20 euro a pop and u need what?
surface level yes
but in reality no, it's just not that simple
as we've already discussed
you can get heroic loot from random weekly boxes doing 4 dungeons, heroic loot isnt mythic loot
it would be insane to buy a mythic 8/8 boost with wowtokens thats easily what like $2,000USD roughly with current token value??
exactly, the reason heroic loot is the floor is because heroic loot is already widely available and anything below is it easily outvalued
no way anyone does that
people will buy specific boss kills
Are we taking mythic tier away from the level 10 weekly keystones as well ?
i can see a lot of people buying only oab
and ofcourse they want all players to be able to get something out of dinar, even if they're not necessarily getting the best thing out if it
no, but that is by nature much more limited (and requires generally more effort)
As with dinar was originally 2 they changed to 3
Mythic 10s are easier than gallywix heroic imo
M10 easier
than 5 players who know a dungeon
these dinars are actual bad luck protection instead of extra loot for playing, pretty simple to understand
idk, on an individual effort level, you can probably afk your way through H Gally a lot easier than even a +10
its easier to get 5 people who know how to do an m10 than it is to get 10-20 that all know heroic gally perfect. but you dont need all 10-20 to know it perfect
just for sake of example
Tbh if we kill oab this season. Imma be so happy
I mean the real compromise is that you should be able to buy M-track dungeon loot with dinar as well - at least give players a chance to get that Pacemaker or w/e that refuses to show up in their vault
Yup
yea that seems like an oversight on their end
dinar should be gear for the season
not from the raid only
so all seasonal gear, delve stuff m+ raid
probably KSH or L at most
yeah i think that and adding an item that upgrades dinar items when you kill boss would be 2 solid qol changes, but i dont think they should change the having to kill boss to get it
hell I wouldn't mind if it wasn't just portal achieves
Samr
this also seems like an oversight
i assumed it would be base item with 10-15 ranks of upgrade
and you just unlock the next rank when you get that kill
I'm less in favor of an upgrade, because that's just giving them the item with a few extra steps
however I am in favor of letting people upgrade if they kill that boss (e.g. buy H Diamond, kill M Gally, upgrade to M Diamond)
like i didnt buy a mythic aug in s4. i bought aug with like 15 upgrade ranks
heres the problem with that, we all know damn well all +10s is significantly easier to accomplish vs Cutting Edge
you get the loot your earn, end of story
yea but if the +10s thing is just dungeon loot
so at that point why make raid items so much more restricted to get
yeah thats what i mean, you can upgrade your h item once you kill on mythic
This is what i meant at least
I know nobody wants to feel left out
and it is a serious bummer seeing this system and knowing 'well that doesn't mean shit for me!'
that's a (completely separate) marketing failure on blizz part
but I don't believe the answer is "just give people free loot to make them feel better about themselves"
at the same time, we as players create the social aspect
if we want mythic M+ dinar it should be 3k achiev or something
and 10000% people will be selling oab kills
that requires effort
for mega cheap
so what
Lel a mythic oab?
that fight is gonna get even easier
el oh el
in 3 weeks
it'll still be in the millions
I bet itll be 500k
but honestly... I'm fine with that
at first millions
i dont think its gonna be super expensive if you really want that mythic bis
eventually hundred thousands
the boss is alrady melting
throw in how much more % raid buff?
and more gear
and corruption
not because I do a whole lot of sales or anything, but I just don't really see an issue with it - they're still putting in effort
Sure it might not be the same kind of effort, but they're at least doing something to earn that piece, even if what they're doing is only economical
it's not perfect and I kinda wish sales didn't exist, but you can't really stop them either, so fuck it - it's still better than just giving out pity bis for free
yea i dont have a problem with it
We are gettin A LOT of power ngl
i just know that mythic oab loot is gonna have a big demand
and raiders will supply it
and there's gonna be a lot of raiders able to supply it
so its gonna be cheap
I don't think it'll be as cheap as you imply, but I really couldn't care less
there are only so many aspects you can control
i bet near the end of season you can get an alt oab mythic dinar loot unlocked for like 200k
if that
If ppl are willing to spend 200 euro for a bis item
yeah you've said that repeatedly, we get it
not 200 euro
every time I sim something then do what it says then it wants me to change something else... im losing tons of gold re-crafting and socketing
π€£
yes - some people will buy their way in
no, I don't like it, but I don't really care either. It's not the end of the world and if that's how they want to spend their money, fine - it's their money
AgREED
I still think that's preferrable to just giving everyone a participation trophy
they earned the cash they can spend it
Exaxtly time vs money
What are your thoughts on the original SL dinar system where you didnβt need to kill the specific boss but you did need to kill mythic bosses to be able to fully upgrade the gear you bought?
Exactly
Sucked if u are proggin
I touched on it earlier, but I think it's effectively the same thing just with extra steps
I liked the system for Season 4, but don't think it fits a mid-expansion season as well; I still think it's stilly for people to get the best end boss items after just killing the early bosses a few times
True, itβs misery if youβre extending
On the flip side, people sell M+ title as well
sure
Which go for more than most raid bosses
and pvp carries all the time
There just making a stinky cause its free money
Oh my god guys wow bad?
3 weeks later Wow good!
the cycle continues
they make a stink because the people complaining, by and large, aren't the "big boys" - it's the people who do +10s, maybe a few +12s or even a +14 and like to think they're going to be big boys
Fuck em
if ya aint killin it you dont deserve it simple as
what they gunna do show up in ur key and do 0 kicks and 0 damage?
other than tettles, the actual high end M+ pushers... aren't really complaining about dinar lol
tettles needs that bag 2
i aint blamen em
go get it king
Dinars are great catcup, i get if people are upset that there alt cant use it or something but if u want it that bad go get it, its right fucking there.
the actual high end players already know that you need to explore every avenue if you truly wanna be competitive
Fair enough, not sure I can relate to economic activity counting as it feeling earned but the SL system (perhaps with some tweaks) not counting. I also donβt care that much and would rather we have a system that does nothing for me than entirely free loot being handed out.
there's no such thing as "truly competitive" while also only doing the bare minimum - in virtually anything, wow related or not
hate delves
Give us myth track delve gear
on god
π€£
mythic track heart and monster energy would go so hard
fuck khazan eye fuck house of card all my boomers are juicin
/slurp
also i like the potion drinking sound it spams
I think a lot of it comes down to expectations - blizz hyped up dinar as a mid-season system which gets a lot of people excited... for something they ultimately may not even necessarily engage with
whereas if we'd gone into the season from the start with this in mind, response would have been a whole lot more tempered
so yeah it's a failure of marketing and managing expectations
Man imagine if i had to do a t11 delves for mythic track delve trinkets
Tbf that
Oh yeah, this is a massive failure to communicate.
ngl id probably be making youtube vids 2
Fuckin blizz expecting me to engage with the content what the fuck shizzard!
I pay 15 bucks and bought a carry
wheres my trinket
also a lot of it is on players too, a lot of them want best thing simply because it's best thing, without any real concept of how good/bad it is
yeah just get heroic versions
if its good enough for wf players to kill bosses with it
its good enough for me
(im bad pease give me more ilvl)
H Jastor is still going to be a big upgrade for everyone who doesn't already have it - yes M would be better, but that doesn't mean that H is bad
- H Jastor is still much better than even a max crafted ring
- M Jastor is only a small (<1%) upgrade over H Jastor
U said it best players dont think in %
like all these items are like a 12k upgrade for me
wich is nic
but fucking nothing
in the grand scheme of things
buying an unupgradeable hc jastor would just feel bad lol
it's hard to, unless you really have a strong familiarity with the system
Yeah, I don't disagree
holy fucking shit
yeah i do think its fair to be able to upgrade it later, if not im saving my dinars
Ye ilvl upgrade is huuge
6 more but yeah
Stop cap misinformtiros
Tettles (my king) says H > M jastor is 3% and he would never lie to me nor exaggerate to make a point

warrior moment
3% overall dmg?
i mean to be fair to tettles it could have just been a mistake maybe his class its 3% higher?
I love that guilty asked for the proof and he just stopped responding
its probably not intentinal is all i ment
Not how it works
guilty my beloved
So he meant 3% for weap + ring + trinket?
my b i dont keep up with internet stuffz im really bad at keeping things in my head
probably
just enough space to keep expansion changes in
then im outa ram
speaking of i need to sim if crafting a weapon is better then fully heroic bis weapon i thiink i know the answer but i wanna make sure
Prob meant that, but the wording on what he actually posted is omega poor
(or ill pretend to know the answer and say i knew it all along)
it is
Fuck!
anyway, real solution to the dinar mess is to also make M-Track dungeon gear purchasable for people who have KSH/KSL/whatever
and then in future seasons, do away with dinar and create a more comprehensive system that's active from the start of the season instead, so that players can temper their expectations accordingly
Transmute pitch went hard
please make all my gear upgradable and dinarable!
i want to be a walking crest like in df season 1
I think its fine blp enters at a 05 patch
Thanks, I refined it a lil and sent it in yesterday... though sadly it's way too good an idea for Blizz to ever use 
god speed spiderman
it may be something they implement later or 2 expacs later
break transmute incase of low subs
in so many words, I suggested that instead of mid-season dinar, Blizz integrate bad luck protection into the Catalyst instead - allowing players to use charges to convert an item to a specific boss drop of the same type & difficulty
- e.g. if you defeated H Bandit, you can use X Catalyst charges to convert a Hero-track weapon into H BiS
- if you've defeated M Gally, you can use X Catalyst charges to convert a Myth-track ring into M Diamond
- same for dungeons, provided you've earned some achievement (portal, KSH, whatever)
For any item on that dungeon/boss loot table, as long as you've defeated them on the appropriate difficulty
Sep from catalyst i buy it
combined with the catalyst, just two options - you can make tier as normal, or you can convert items; for balancing reasons I'd probably make Very Rare/Cantrip items cost more charges, because obviously the intent isn't to just let people "buy" the best item each time they beat a new boss
And they can always counterbalance costs by simply adding more charges as achievements rewards similar to the current KSM
- i.e. give players another charge for Cutting Edge or 4k io, or whatever
Ye but again punishes normal players. Or makes guilds send tier to prefered players
Or makes guilds send tier to prefered players
This happens already anyway
it doesn't punish them at all, at least not any more than the current system does
Yes but now u would get even more fucked coz u would be behind on charges
if anything it's better for them too, because it gives them an avenue to that M+ trinket that they never got to show up in the vault
It's also like "Player A has tier already, he can use his charges to transmute X item. X item drop can be given to someone else now"

there are multiple avenues for tier
in the same way that you might get all your tier from vault and therefore have no use for your catalyst charges, I might get all my teir from catalyst and therefore be able to take other things from vault
and that's the biggest benefit of this system - it's active from the start of the patch, so you can plan for it as you go, based on what gear you get, what bosses you beat, and what gear you still need
As opposed to waiting for dinar that may or may not come, at an undisclosed point, without knowing how many you'll get, how quickly you'll get them, or what their limitations will be
and even if you feel like you fall behind, it's not a finite set of currency like dinar - you will always get more charges over time
Are we halfway season 2 or?
well we don't know when S3 releases so idk
.5 patch is halfway through the cycle surely
probably thereabouts
probably less actually
- S1 started on Sept 10
- S2 started on Mar 4
that's.. 25 weeks?
and we're in the 8th week of S2
9 weeks to max dinar from here
8 weeks of max dinar gaming
That's crazy
Bosses are gonna flop so fast
Raid buff, ilvl buff, dinars, more nerfs, just more loot in general from vaults/time
Playtime is king in these ideas, why would they implement something that gives you item faster then you get bored and log til next raid. Vs farming house of cards for 12 weeks to keep you logging in
Needs to be some kind of 1/12 weekly thing, kill boss get part of a gear catalyst token so you farm for 12 weeks still and get the item as bad luck protection for blizz to bite
the ilvl buff is wild
you say that, and its a very popular narrative, but most devs don't actually think that way
I cant wait for Lockenstock to die before second intermission
pacing is important, yes
but arbitrarily log-in metrics aren't actually a thing most designers consider
that said, the idea actually is limited by time, since obviously you get charges over time (1 every 2 weeks, so if it requires 3 charges to convert your ring to diamond, that's a 6 week investment) - that's pacing, but unlike dinar, it's done in a way that's plannable and predictable from the start of a season - not shoehorned in as a surprise halfway through the season
Devs sure, corporate I doubt thinks that way π
in broad strokes sure, but they very rarely get involved in day to day design details
of course people care about gameplay metrics, but the real secret of success is that if your game is enjoyable... people will log in and play it regardless
and unsurprisingly, Season 2 has been pretty damn popular so far without dinar or any other kind of "log in every week for x weeks to get your prize" mechanics
Why would I play something if I don't have to? For FUN? That's crazy....

||Obligatory /s ofc||
banned for having too much fun
β but i want my unearned items put straight into my hand. It encourages boosts!
Also pvp boosts and mplus boosts running just as rampent as the "impending boost crisis" of dinars
How many was banned in china for all the title boost abusing last season 
my gameplay is so affected by lfr larry having a mythic trinket or weapon π’π’π’π’
π€
I mean buying a boost for the raid to get two myth pieces is different than M+ boosts but I get your point
One is much more expensive than either of the other 2
people buy 8 of the one every week
lets be real people who was already willing to spend money to buy raid boosts for dinars probs would be doing same for items/mounts anyway
Either way saying since boosting is already problem then more boosting doesn't matter is dumb
I'm honestly indifferent about it
But I think people are really exaggerating how many people will actually buy a boost in the raid
I see the value in wanting to have the boss defeated before getting its loot
I also dont care if they throw the heroic gamers a bone
as someone who will kill these bosses, its nice to know i have some bad luck protection now
I completely understand agreeing with the design
I don't understand the people that would be mad if other people got 2 pieces without killing the bosses
why should i kill boss in first place then ?
is your only motivation to raid with people loot
exactly, it would invalidate the effort put in to defeat the boss
im glad the like 600 pulls across the tier to kill all the bosses let alone get my item is just given to some random alt that logged in and did lfr 4 times (probs not 600 this tier probs more like 400)
Yes
That is what is cringe
why should you have mythic jastor ring for free when i spent months progressing the raid with a team to get it
im glad spending 600 pulls on tindral and fyrakk each got me fyralath in the last like 2-3 weeks before it was guaranteed
Why do you care so much about a shitter getting two myth pieces
I don't raid for the memories
not quite equal is it?
real shit
based
Were you the same guy who was mad when you saw a LFR andy with Fyralath?
its highly unlikely someone would even get it natty unless theyre in like a top 3-400 guild
||(I'm cap yapping btw)||
at least very rare drops
Loot backwards is tool and that's honestly how I view it
I cant tell if garms is memeing or not but i quite literally raid for two reasons, spending time with the homies and to get the best loot
Loot is a tool to help kill boss
i wouldnt waste my time if the loot wasnt a higher ilvl
After boss die who care
upfront payment
yes
im the only one with even hero jastor out of my guild
you serious?!
If they did do it like they did in DF would you have just quit mythic raid?
no one wouldve
probs killing mythic gallywix week they come out so unlikely π€·ββοΈ
People getting omegabis gear doesn't change how I interact with the game
I don't care
π«‘
That is right! It wouldn't affect it at all
There's the small vanity hit sure but like
End of the day
Who cares
It's just pixels
buh buh my achievement that people can just buy anyway D:
The people who would be mad about people getting items without the bosses killed is as bad as the people who want it handed to them
Idk man i get it, I'm also extremely loot progression driven in this game
I find myself struggling to want to play when im maxed out
That's the vanity part though, right?
whats weird to me is i like want to play the game the most when im maxed out
actually have a chance to be on equal footing with omega parsers
s4 df was like the best raiding i ever played for that reason
and those damn splitters β
yea tru
So I understand that part, but say lfr larry getting mythic jastor, doesn't change how I interact with the raid/m+
padding on adds 20manning a 30man
Yeah if they did it like they did in S4 it would literally have no affect on anyone
me when i want tournament realm
no gearing
just cranka
i mean sure but literally no one is playing that
parses against what 5 other people
its legit what happened in s4
you got everything you needed
random shit you just had to get normally
Honestly though the dinars just shouldn't exist at all
wot
See now this affects how I interact with the game
hahahhaa

just abuse the trinket
^
Fuck swordish



real
Ok stop right there
Dinar good concept
@dull siren hi :3
tmy is actual animal at warrior
Implementation not the best
lion
both
we talking huge pillar one shot
do you want to do keys
no
π¦
ear supreme
me rn
what is that
barely did 3.0, just started.1
wtf is ear supreme
imallears
cotton candy barbara looks nice
and apparently she drags blade out of the depths of hell
from being dogshit to good again
at least whats what i gathered from a meme i saw
shes gonna be good, Cypher gonna be good, Pinnon gonna be good, Fate colab gonna be good, all the buffs to the stelleron hunters and jingliu
so much good stuff
@fresh spire are there any good games coming out
all gacha games are dead or im behind 3 years
do you like bad story but less power creep, good story but huge power creep, or many jiggle physics
i want turn based
and not be behind 3 years of meta
hsr is turn based
i dunno, people seem to hate natlan
now enjoy monstatd with no voice acting gg
up for the next 5 days
bro aint no way im rerolling on hsr
prolly one of the best chars and is the first one to have a global passive! π peopel def arent upset about that π

its not even op
i mean
1 free rez on any team you play ever
whether shes there or not
is kinda op
(do you have it)
if you died in any content, you die to the boss follow up anyway as it gets 2 turns
if u dont have aventurine
speaking of
i mean u just die on 2nd hit sometimes no
do you even play hsr anymore
but like aventurine almost impossible to die
what can i say, hes fucking broken
isnt it still popular?
think its like randomly decent ish story
just that gameplay looks atrocious
space invaders but jiggling asscheeks
bronya first standard 5star π
queen shit
nono some game that wasnt nikke
wtv
ig i just wait for new gacha game in 3 years after genshin dies
genshin classic
like 2-maybe 3 ish zones they plan on goin to
maybe go the route of honkai and do genshin 2 :sus:
i got a haircut today
holy
that guy was super ass
how many ears is that
i started playing like the last day before he became not free
end of 2.1 i think
so just kinda like my main dpser guy for like a month or so probably
oh nah
mines somewhat spread outside aventurine
w yunli
Hooley vs castorice tho was badass
yer
the new AS is pretty cool
pick someone to 1v1
i tried both her and casto
tho idk yunli just way more fun
think yunli is maybe like the most "engaging" character
like it feels like ur actually fighting the guy since she counters
i like her playstyle
and timing her ult and stuff
seen the silverwolf buff
idk havent seen specifics of any buffs just that they happenin
uh
||current leak is her shred is 65% and her ult hits all targets, her E now implants all teams weaknesses to the target and inflicts the type shred (unlike anaxa)||
idk what anaxa does either but ye that sounds kinda good
all team weaknesses like at the same time tho? sounds kinda silly
so weakness types just matter actually nothing with her on the team
basically does what her E is with his ult to all targets. but he doesn't inflict the type weakness damage amp just the toughness breaking part
which i mean kinda fair
hacker woman bring on any team and u can break weakness the theme of that not horrible
he also does huge damage
yea prolly
erudition no
thats just what they do
since all content in the game is erudition now
pf moc as
o7 hunt
gallighar going back to the bench after everyone pulls the primogem girl
i havent picked my free standard 5star cuz they all suck
have e4 bronya could get e5 lol
but like sunday still just clears methinks
im waiting, they will add more to it eventually
to the standard? highly doubt that
like the one for 300 wishes
not the free 5star token
already got e1 rm
wait the standard pick or the golden orb thing
i took himiko as i needed her at the time for when pure fiction first launched
himiko t0 with herta felt unreal after both being F tier π
wish i could pick a 5star weap instead
