"wow that spell sure is a disgusting piece of shit unworthy of being in the monk class"

#

"give it to arms"

fresh spire
#

there is no other m+ one 😄

pearl jasper
#

well we arent mages who gets their underperforming talents buffed. So blizz will soon nerf colossus, making slayer bis for all content again, then proceed to nerf that and so on

fresh spire
#

signet is -ok-

livid crescent
fresh spire
#

eh, it sims ok but in practice doesnt feel that good

red stream
#

the delve trinkets like mechano are really good, but only go up to heroic

livid crescent
#

I don't like running delves that's the problem

#

Rather just farm a dungeon for a trinket

minor gust
#

Still suffers target cap issues so will be whatever

fresh spire
#

reap tho

sly geode
#

The playstyle w demolish is too far removed from what made a lot of us 'veteran' players fall in love w Arms in the first place! Demolish is v strong but it's also v awkward and isn't Arms

queen star
#

should try your luck with 1 delve a week with underpin summon realistically

#

if you get one of the trinkets on herotrack its solid

fresh spire
#

they renamed cleave to bloodthirst 😄

flat willow
#

I wouldn't mind demolish if it didn't self root and didn't break the moment the mob takes 1 step away from you

minor gust
#

I will report back

livid crescent
#

Is demolish the m+ build?

flat willow
#

I would love if demolish had a MODERN DESIGN like ret hammer of light and just morphed your colossus smash into demolish

livid crescent
#

I hate pressing it so much

flat willow
#

to fix desynch issues in single target

livid crescent
#

tanks always run out of it

queen star
#

tanks do have the magic ability of starting a sudden movement once the demolish button has been pressed

flat willow
#

I like demolish, when it doesn't cancel itself and when it crits

queen star
#

whether theres a mechanic or there isnt

flat willow
#

ofc it's actually very easy to make demolish 100 times better

#

but why would blizzard do that

icy mulch
#

@magic canopy This is bullshit.

sly geode
#

Demolish is just a reskinned version of that spell survival hunters currently have

flat willow
#

survival has a self root?

#

I thought ccing yourself was exclusive to warrior

#

very unique and flavorful

hollow plover
magic canopy
#

better then nothing

#

our burst aoe sucks

minor gust
fresh spire
#

;o

hollow plover
#

its not adressing the core issues at all and if they are willing to buy slayer arms (and slayer fury ig), then why is it bladestorm when theres so many extra avenues to buff it

icy mulch
#

Ret buffs make no sense. Our Paladin (who just had to go Prot) is all sad. Was saying they needed it cause they were one of the worst in raid. I laughed.

hollow plover
icy mulch
#

A lot.

minor gust
#

I mean ret is pretty bad at raid yeah

hollow plover
flat willow
minor gust
#

yep ret giga op raiding spec

#

you caught them

icy mulch
#

That's cause it's biggest damage ability is a damn proc. So I imagine a lot of that big damage gets wasted.

flat willow
#

once ret and dh are buffed, warrior will be the ret

#

surely warrior gets buffed

sly geode
hollow plover
flat willow
#

oh look, dev evoker destroying everything

#

yet I remember getting into a fight about dev not needing a buff when it happened

#

and how fury was so much better

#

must have been dreaming

icy mulch
#

Still annoying they didn't give us much love for M+

minor gust
#

its a game get over it fury needs God for M+ right now and thats not happening till they can do major changes in 11.2

flat willow
#

but yes, ret was almost dead last in raid with dh

#

now that they are both buffed, both warrior specs are almost dead last

#

buff soon

fringe moon
#

Shame there’s no colossus ST buffs

flat willow
hollow plover
#

im weird tho

icy mulch
#

Calling it now, you're all saying Warrior will get big buffs and changes in 11.2. I doubt we get anything meaningful.

flat willow
#

oh we aren't

hollow plover
#

no one is saying that

#

we will get 3 lines max

#

per hero talent

#

if anything

proper pier
#

Waiting for the 13.0 rework

flat willow
#

I just like pointing out that after the ret and dh buffs, we will be the rets (without their aoe)

#

boomkin buff next patch

icy mulch
#

We'll get a paragraph or two, which will most likely be the same drivel we got in 11.1.5

vague ore
#

will slayer be decent in keys after the buffs?

flat willow
#

ret 13.0 rework

icy mulch
#

No

spiral coral
flat willow
#

depends on what you call decent

vague ore
spiral coral
#

Don’t listen to them they hate warrior

vague ore
#

it's never been more over

flat willow
#

I do hate warrior

hollow plover
flat willow
#

it's in my name

hollow plover
minor gust
#

just because it wont be better than colossus doesnt mean you cant play it

flat willow
flat willow
#

and just for that post

#

12.0 ret rework

hollow plover
#

idk might just be me but i fucking hate these bladestorm changes

icy mulch
hollow plover
#

and dont get me started on reap buffs

flat willow
#

and 12.1.5 ret rework

hollow plover
#

rng fiesta

spiral coral
#

If Mike The Situation can make it, so can Warrior

#

BLADESTORRRRM TIIIIIIME

#

I got four days to brick my own keys getting used to Slayer in m+ for the new buff that’s probably not going to be superior to colossus but I don’t really have anything better to do

#

And just want something new

flat willow
#

I respect the hustle

icy mulch
shadow ibex
#

BS buff after nerfing it no reason s1

hollow plover
shadow ibex
#

Kinda like the cs change about time

hollow plover
spiral coral
#

Could be worse

hollow plover
#

hits 20% reap proc
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO IM DOING DAAAAAMN

doesn't hit 20% reap proc
gladge

shadow ibex
#

It could be worse while linking reality

flat willow
#

they keep adding little things like that

minor gust
flat willow
#

almost like parry is 20 years old piece of shit mechanic that has no place in retail

flat willow
#

maybe bosses should be able to parry spells

shadow ibex
#

Slayer aoe makes no sense to me

hollow plover
shadow ibex
#

I would love for them to explain how it's supposed to be done lol

#

Exactly

flat willow
#

in terms of aoe

#

we have no aoe

shadow ibex
#

Yo press cleave

#

And hope?

#

Have faith in the cards

hollow plover
#

go cleave but also go execute 1 target but also slayer strikes only hit main target but also bladestorm needs executes to be cast but also mortal strike is the actual reap aoe but also press this and that and fuck you blizzard

shadow ibex
#

Just how it's put together

vast surge
#

Give us the fury version of bladestorm!

flat willow
#

when I first heard about slayer and colossus I thought slayer would be the aoe spec with it being tied to bladestorm and blademasters

hollow plover
#

i'd argue its not put together

vast surge
#

Also I still hate demolish

hollow plover
#

they very intentionally made colossus and thane aoe, while slayer is ST

tardy hare
#

They should just revert the execute nerf

tender ermine
spiral coral
#

Wait I have to stand still?

shadow ibex
#

SD clap is waiting for them right ther

spiral coral
#

Why?

vast surge
shadow ibex
#

Like colossus st makes sense. It's aoe makes sense. Slayer st does

hollow plover
shadow ibex
#

Slayer aoe is a head scratcher

hollow plover
#

by design I think

shadow ibex
#

It's very playable in some encounters

fresh spire
hollow plover
#

yea but not for the boss damage

#

yk?

flat willow
#

that should be slayer

#

but 24/7

fresh spire
#

playing slayer in keys feels fine. Just its damage was low end

flat willow
#

🧠

shadow ibex
fresh spire
#

Reap ofc has RNG to it but more you pull the more you roll that 20%

minor gust
#

its a nice fresh breath from demolish

fresh spire
#

flow/cds feel cleaner than rav/demolish

#

just its damage sucked

minor gust
#

yee

hollow plover
vast surge
#

Slayer could always be tweaked to have a talent that makes SD procs sweep the execute to 5 targets

minor gust
hollow plover
#

i do

fresh spire
hollow plover
#

im just shitposting a lil

#

cuz im bothered by the changes

shadow ibex
#

Using SD procs in aoe sounds like the absolute least fun thing I've ever heard of

hollow plover
shadow ibex
#

Ngl

minor gust
vast surge
#

Yeah

fresh spire
#

Feel the issue more for SD is the ease to forget to press it in aoe

#

would be cleaner if execute also was tied to reap

#

in both arms and fury

minor gust
#

yeah I only consumed SD procs if I had slayer marks on the target

vast surge
shadow ibex
#

Was gonna say you got to lower your bs cs

#

But it's aoe dmg isn't great

fresh spire
#

Prio for SD is a little tiny difference for aoe just being high prio when MFE fully stacked or just after x buttons when a stack is up etc

shadow ibex
#

They should have made BS proc reap every tick when hitting X targets

shadow ibex
#

Or have a chance to

flat willow
vast surge
#

On the upside at least we got patch notes. Rogues got fuck all.

shadow ibex
#

If bs caused reap you could then guarantee ok on this pull ill have burst wit them

minor gust
#

yeah the rogue player in my M+ grp is super upset

shadow ibex
#

Cuz ik I'm gonna get at least 7 procs

minor gust
#

another patch another ignored sub rogue

kind thunder
vast surge
#

I play Ass Rogue 🤣

fresh spire
#

rogues issues are more set/talent based than tuning

minor gust
#

well ass doesnt need the buffs lmao

#

its already strong af

eager nexus
#

Rogues? You mean single minded fury

flat willow
#

rogues issue is also being unplayable if you aren't a night elf

#

which brings us to

#

delete shadowmeld

regal wharf
#

dude

#

im a human rogue main

flat willow
#

rip you

regal wharf
#

i dont wanna use a racial in my rotation

shut hound
#

does this talent actually change ur rotation at all

regal wharf
#

im good dude

flat willow
#

that "racial" is vanish

regal wharf
#

ok

vast surge
flat willow
#

you don't like vanish?

regal wharf
#

i do

shadow ibex
#

Yea you use opportunist

regal wharf
#

but I play outlaw

#

wait

#

hmm

flat willow
#

ok ok the night elves keep vanish

#

what about a new race

#

that has blink has a racial

#

I mean if night elves can have the signature rogue ability has a racial

shut hound
vast surge
#

I play NE but it’s not shadowmeld. I just think NEs are hot AF best abs in the game.

#

Hahaha

minor gust
flat willow
#

I didn't know that was how this worked

#

" it existed in the past "

#

" so it must continue to exist now and forever "

minor gust
#

you didnt even read the 2nd half of my sentence

flat willow
#

what race do you play

minor gust
#

you said rogue is unplayable if not playing nelf

#

which is absurd lmao

flat willow
#

it's called a hyperbole

#

it's like saying " pvp was unplayable as a non human from wotlk to wod "

#

ofc people still played other races

#

it just was a handicap for no reason

minor gust
#

so whats your point then because shadowmeld is good is it broken no not even close

flat willow
#

it's too good, that's my point

#

tbh it's better in pvp than in pve

minor gust
#

thats why theres so many non nelf rogue players

kind thunder
#

i mean unless patched nelf is insanely good for rogues, u get free crackshot reset on law and free shrouded suffocation/carnage on sin

flat willow
#

it's either you play night elf for the skin, in which case you don't care if shadowmeld gets replaced by another racial

#

or you play night elf for shadowmeld, in which case clueless

kind thunder
#

aside from being an immune if done right and a skip tool on pve

minor gust
#

if it was insanely good you would see more nelf rogues but you dont most rogues are dwarf or maghar orcs

sudden fox
#

Nelf isnt that good

minor gust
#

nelf is good for high threat specs like warrior

kind thunder
vast surge
#

Yeah, shadowmeld is more a defensive tool imo than an offensive one for rogues

sudden fox
#

You can but its still negligble

shadow ibex
#

Technically orc racial makes some pvp set ups impossible cuz stun duration it's better than any racial in game vs rogue

kind thunder
flat willow
#

in pvp the higher the rating the more night elves there are

#

orcs is still pretty good tho

#

orc is 2nd or 3rd best pvp race

#

fighting with human

minor gust
kind thunder
sudden fox
vast surge
#

As an ass rogue you hold vanish charges for chain pulling and even if you’re out of vanish all you need to do is setup 5 ruptures the go into the crimson tempest

flat willow
#

set up 5 ruptures without vanish

sudden fox
flat willow
#

so like 5 gcd of doing nothing?

#

sounds fun

kind thunder
vast surge
#

Its how the class works

sudden fox
#

Welcome to sin rogue

shadow ibex
#

I was gonna alt rogue but the aoe seems like the most cringe shit

flat willow
#

clearly the class isn't designed to work like that

shadow ibex
#

It sounds like a dot class

minor gust
#

any real key the tank knows to play around an ass rogue

sudden fox
#

Its entirely dependent on your tank

vast surge
#

I’ve never had much issue tbh

minor gust
#

thats why most of the top rogue are not playing nelf cuz its not necessary. most are dwarfs or orcs

#

@fresh spire what do you think about blademasters for more cleaves more reaps

silver lintel
#

Good evening, what’s the current thoughts on bladestorm change? Any chance it replaces ravager for m+ build?

shadow ibex
#

I highly doubt it affects colossus

shadow ibex

minor gust
#

rise my reap rise

serene hollow
minor gust
#

tell me you have no idea how reap works without telling me

slim iron
#

Fury meta now or arms beyter?

serene hollow
#

It... Procs off of cleave and mortal strike.

#

Tell me there's more to it

#

Pls I beg

#

0.01 may be slightly hyperbolic

minor gust
#

more targets more chance to proc reap

shadow ibex
#

that doesnt changeanything tho

#

you still use cleave on CD

minor gust
#

thats not what he was saying

shadow ibex
#

like thats not something youre actively doing

#

ik just saying it doesnt matter if it works better with more targets

#

cleaveis your only aoe button anyway

#

you are going to press it

minor gust
#

that wasnt the point but ok

serene hollow
#

Is that not good rng?

minor gust
#

at a certain point its not rng

serene hollow
#

At a certain point it definitely is

minor gust
#

your getting reap procs every cleave cast

shadow ibex
#

its not something you have any control over

minor gust
#

the screenshot was of a massive pull dude claimed reap was only that high due to rng which isnt really the case

serene hollow
#

How do I know the pull size

minor gust
#

then why you typing that if you dont know?

serene hollow
#

Are you still offended after I said it was hyperbolic

#

I don't understand

Battle lord slayer viable now in m+ ?keks

nova marsh
narrow panther
#

soooooooo with the huge 30% bladestorm Buff we topping the charts now fellow Warriors right, RIGHT?

runic urchin
#

genuinely though do we run bladestorm in m+ with these buffs?

minor gust
#

with colossus no

narrow panther
#

cant use Demolish or Cleave during Bladestorm, sooooooo no

runic urchin
#

makes sense, im not maining warrior this tier for the first time since bfa so im out of the loop

nova marsh
#

Slayer dosen't exist

runic urchin
#

is demolish just the best button on the planet or what? i feel like im deleting things with it when i do play my warrior

narrow panther
#

get 10 stacks fast and u feel like a god with Demolish yeah. Its a feelgood moment.

runic urchin
#

it does feel very good to press

#

does not feel good when your ADHD chinese veng dh moves the mobs away and breaks the cast halfway through

nova marsh
#

Play with prot paladins instead

vast surge
#

Brother's in arms which keys can I prestack collateral damage ?

it actually procs like crazyz

finite wasp
#

well guys after this tuning im probably gonna reroll ret. pretty cringe how they always ignore warrior

minor gust
#

but warrior just got buffs

#

🤔

finite wasp
#

it did

#

but blade storm

#

is trash for m+

minor gust
finite wasp
#

and even then this wont make a big diff on st eta ggkeks

Reroll to literally anything else.A much better fate then becoming one with the sea of pink

Genuinely like

If ret was half the popularity it is atm

#

I'd say hell yeah

BUt as is it's basically unplayable in pugs because signing up for evrey key is 3 other rets....or other paladins

Facts

#

Wait so ret gets m+ buffs, arms gets... slayer buffs... yay

smoky kayak
#

Rets buff was more of a ST/boss one

#

the Slayer changes were analogous to the Herald buffs Ret got last time around - a boost for the underperforming (in M+) hero spec

slow saddle
#

Isnt ret st allready on par with arms m+ spec?

tawdry cradle
#

Hey guess I have a question:

What are the strengths of arms Warriors?

I know they have strong 2 target cleave

But is their strength funnel? Cleave? ST? AoE?

minor gust
slow saddle
minor gust
#

your mistake is thinking blizz cares if they buff a spec thats already good in M+

#

feral just got an aura buff

#

M+ is as after thought raid comes first

pale mantle
#

only on slam ?

#

hahhaaha

#

and 1 mortal striket

#

and nothing procs

minor gust
#

its rng

#

damn

stone marsh
#

Slayer viable in M+ again?

slow saddle
#

Well heck at least its something

queen garden
# stone marsh Slayer viable in M+ again?

very unlikely , 30% on bs and reap the storm will have minimal impact.
Slayer has very weak sustained aoe dmg due not having any cleave modifier.
Sure it could compensate having stronger ST but you still need to pick execute talents for that and so further subtracting aoe potential.

slow saddle
#

I mean slayer arms does not work in keys unless juggernaut is chsnged

slow saddle
#

U can meme as slayer fury though

#

In keys

#

i got target capped diff

#

:c

minor gust
#

hopefully Blizz is having a conversation about target caps for next tier

#

it just doesnt work

white hedge
#

A few questions for aoe m+
Do i build up stacks for the initial demo or just send it
Do i hold ravager for collateral damage or just send it on cd with sweeping strike
Must i always ALWAYS demo with sweeping strike or i can just demo freely
Say i have warbreaker on 10-15 sec cd
Do i filler till it comes of cd for demo/collateral cleave
And this one is a noob question
Between a proc of overpower and ms
Overpower is better even tho im rage capped?

tacit crystal
#

you hold ravager for cs, can send eithout if high collat stacks

#

you should try to ss with demo since the first 2 hits give stacks for collat

#

and i dont understand your last 2 questions

#

@white hedge

pale mantle
#

He asked if is better to press overpower with opportunist over mortal strike even if he have 130 rage

#

meaning he would waste rage

minor gust
#

rage isnt real follow the priority

pale mantle
white hedge
#

Ah ye big thanks
Ok fuck me ive p
Been sending demo on pull

tacit crystal
#

so that's not possible

white hedge
#

I have over capped rage quite abit
I used the op gives 8 more rage on 35% due to rage starving

tacit crystal
pale mantle
#

ha

tacit crystal
#

i need a loan

pale mantle
#

so what proc is talking about ?

white hedge
#

But with it now im wasting rage

pale mantle
#

hahaah

minor gust
#

and only if you were swapping to nelf

tacit crystal
#

i want to swap to velf for mug

white hedge
#

Overpower proc
Tactician? Opportunity something

tacit crystal
#

to not get aids

minor gust
#

ah

tacit crystal
#

so that doesnt make sense

minor gust
#

yeah im just accepting dealing with aids

#

im not race swapping for 1 boss

tacit crystal
#

bc you dont have that talent with colo

tacit crystal
minor gust
#

yeah but shadowmeld

tacit crystal
#

and im tired of nelf for now i think

minor gust
#

me like it

tacit crystal
#

yeah bro

#

i end up doibg more jeys as prot than sps anyways

#

gg

minor gust

F

white hedge

Wait i dont?
Em fuck me im thinking about something else that resets op then mb

its ok come do some slayer keys with me next week

Ms over op yea?

tacit crystal
#

yea

white hedge
#

3q3q

tacit crystal
#

it changes if you have opportunist

#

wat was the 2nd to kast question asking

tacit crystal
#

gg

#

omg bozo

#

a turbo banger came on

minor gust
#

ive been perma listening to the expedition 33 ost for the last week now

white hedge
#

Do i hold warbreaker for collateral/demo if my warbreaker is 10-15 seconds away (not including anger management),

tacit crystal
#

prob not going to play that anytime soon

#

how can you hold cs for collat demo if nots up?

white hedge
#

Sorry sorry

#

Hold FOR warbreaker

#

I got collateral/demo
Warbreaker is coming up soonish

minor gust
#

10 sec or less you can hold collateral for cds no hard rule on this its all feeling and whats going on in your current situation

white hedge
#

Mm oke
Big danks

mint turtle
minor gust
#

its a specific thing you can do depending on the dungeon the pulll and the tank you have and the key level most imporantly

#

hes pre stacking collateral while the mobs are grouping

#

so he has collateral in his cd window

mint turtle
#

Ah so basically assess it, I'm guessing higher keys big pulls last longer hence why this works as he does it a number of times

minor gust
#

and if its safe to do so depending on your tank

#

a lot of tanks are struggling with threat especially while pulling

mint turtle
#

What if the pack is grouped together but still last longer, i.e +15, would it still be worth doing it then? Or just normal rotation?

#

I generally don't try to hit anything when tank gathering

minor gust
#

its a very difficult thing to determine and requires a lot of experience doing high keys, You really only wanna aim to do if your doing it while gathering the mobs because you dont want to delay using cds for long because a lot of the times especially on higher keys you will have multiple uses on things like WB and Demo.

#

one thing you can do instead which is also really important is building a collateral for the next pull while the current pack is dying

mint turtle
#

Okay that makes sense, thanks for your help! Really appreciate it

minor gust
#

yeah its not easy to figure out as a lot of high end arms min maxing is all about collateral usage but thats really only relevant as you do 15 or 16+ keys

mint turtle
#

Ok cool, yeah managed to do my first 15 yesterday but my damage is consistently behind others so trying to figure out how the top arms players are blasting so hard

minor gust
#

yeah its not easy as some people think Crit and Biz are also legendary gamers so they make it look like its very simple

mint turtle
#

Yeah I saw biz prestack and open on first pack of motherloade with an 87m cleave lmao

minor gust
#

I tend to only prestack if I have DBTS or meld available to make sure I dont have any threat accidents

slow saddle
#

Prestackin is fun. But pre dubgeon should not.be a thing

shut hound
#

in raid, slayer obvs, the icy veins prio says u prio Opportunist OP over MS

#

is that actually true, u just always use OP insta if it resets?

#

or should i be using another guide

eager sigil
#

not every op reset is opportunist but yea

whole steppe
#

What do you think about BS %30 Buff, are we gonna play BS on M+ ??

swift crown
#

Wat

shut hound
#

wut

swift crown
#

How is not every OP reset Opportunist

eager sigil
#

oh

#

yea im stupid

#

mb

whole steppe
#

lol

swift crown
#

Bladestorm sucks mechanically

shut hound
#

prioing op resets feels so weird lmao

whole steppe
#

we prio op on st if opportunist procs

#

?

shut hound
#

apparently

whole steppe
#

what about aoe?

shut hound
#

uh idk im just talkin about a slayer thing which i only do for raid so the most AoE i do is sweeping strikes lol

#

or thunderclap to spread rends

swift crown
#

Yea just do yourself the favour and don't play Slayer in keys

#

And you never have to think about this

whole steppe
#

i don't like demolish tbh

#

but i play it anyways

slow saddle
#

Slayer in keys is worse

#

Coz u gotta play execute talents. And those are horrid in keys

#

#makejuggernaut dissapear

swift crown
#

We hate Jugg

slow saddle
#

It has no upside

#

Unless u get tuned poorly so 15 stacks do way to much dmgkeks

#

Naked executes should fuck

swift crown
#

I think Fury Jugg is okay

#

5 stacks

#

Longer duration

minor gust
#

Slayer is about SD not execute theres nothing about it forcing you into jugg and CT

#

you can very much and should play a Blord variant if you want to do slayer keys

white storm
#

for how much haste do you guys aim as colossus?

minor gust
#

however much the robot tells me to have when I Top Gear sim

white storm

yeah, i do that too. but something like 13% haste just feels shit

minor gust
#

colossus AOE sims tend to not favor haste a lot but I dont like playing with low haste either so I Ignore it and prio ST sims which does like more haste

sure if Jugg was good and easy to play around like it was in S3 of DF but its not unfortunately

slow saddle
#

I know i know i only tried 2 keys

#

Felt awfull🤣

minor gust
#

yee better option is just play the Blord variant

#

much much more fun

slow saddle
#

Didnt even smoke bosses as much as i thought

minor gust
#

because execute/jugg sucks and requires bosses to be sub 35% for awhile to feel good

slow saddle
#

S3 df was top play

#

For the sd procs doin aoe

minor gust
#

replace jugg with that tier set

slow saddle
#

100%

minor gust
#

would be a great day if that happened

slow saddle
#

Ive said that since

minor gust
#

man before Slayer was released I was so certain that tier set would be in there

#

its such a lay up easy talent

slow saddle
#

Arms overall would be better if sd was almost always press now button

minor gust
#

but nah still have yet to see that tier set comeback as a talent option

slow saddle
#

Yup. Which weird coz its a slam dunk

#

Make sd feel powerfull

#

And give u some aoe

minor gust
slow saddle
#

Oppertunist does this

minor gust
#

I should not have to pay attention to 3 different conditionals on when to use my SD proc or rely on a WA

slow saddle
#

Even if ppl hate on it

minor gust
#

I just hate OPP because my Brain is so wired to do MS on cd that OPP fucks my head

#

and I take psychic damage

slow saddle
#

Ngl same🤣

rare kite
#

most fun i've had ever

slow saddle
#

Same

#

Legion arms felt great

daring heron
slow saddle
#

That or i want steady eddy ( s2 sl arms)

rare kite
#

downside of legion arms was the mastery tho. it did no damage without cs. but just swap the masteries then you have the perfect spec

eager sigil
#

45 sec cs cd that can reset at any time

#

that was so shit

rare kite
minor gust
#

lmao

#

Legion Classic gonna go so hard

#

hope they skip WOD

#

not even close

eager sigil
#

first patch it was

slow saddle
#

Always felt good to push

rare kite
#

it's like me saying "op 12 second cd"

#

like bruh

slow saddle
#

A proc should feel like a win

#

Also sd should count towards am

eager sigil
slow saddle
#

Or just remove the free part

minor gust
#

remember in DF when you would get reck on CS cast making casting CS actually feel good I member

rare kite
slow saddle
minor gust
#

remember when they did this rage revamp because we were getting to much rage in DF just for us still completely ignore rage in TWW

#

good times

rare kite
minor gust
#

instead of just giving us a way to spend that rage

rare kite
#

if you think they are remotely compareable i have no interest in this conversation.

slow saddle
#

Also cs rage spikes where to high

#

But the nerfed 25% on evert cs would be a non issie

#

Issue

eager sigil
minor gust
# slow saddle Also cs rage spikes where to high

I can agree but I woulda rather the solution be give us more ways to spend that rage appropriately or I woulda also taken the reck rage gen nerf on warlords. Even with the rage gen nerf it still woulda kept that good feeling when you pressed CS

slow saddle
#

Thats what i meant

minor gust
#

yeah

slow saddle
#

With regen nerf it would be fine now

minor gust
#

but unfortunatly right now it wouldnt matter

rare kite
minor gust
#

because we dont care about rage

rare kite
#

look at cs resets in cata for example. still very satisfying but no mastery that makes you do no damage without it

eager sigil
#

just mega rng if you do dam or not

minor gust
#

you would only feel warlords on CS again in TWW for execute phase thats it

rare kite
# eager sigil i think its problematic the same way jugg is rn

yes and that is mostly coz of legion mastery. also i would rather have a proccy spec that spends its procs immideately, rather than hold for a maintenance buff. sure legion arms could be pretty rng, but maan do the procs feel good! you press cs asap to buff ms/exe

austere river
#

@smoky kayak on updates you talked about slayer tuning but those are Arms and fury buffs general not slayer specific, im just thinking that if the buff to bladestorm is enough to make it competitive vs ravager builds on colossus m+

shut hound
#

say CS is off CD but avatar is coming off CD in ~5 to 10 seconds, do I hold CS for ava? (single target slayer pov question)

minor gust
eager sigil
austere river
minor gust
#

you cant cast anything in bladestorm you can cast while ravager is going

slow saddle
#

No

minor gust
#

theres no reason to use BS as colossus

austere river
#

on colossus there is nothing that restricts its loop to ravager, its just numbers game

minor gust
#

yeah the numbers is the penalty you get for sitting afk in bladestorm

#

Bladestorm would require a massive massive buff and it would need to turn into fury bladestorm where its quicker for colossus to ever think about it

slow saddle
#

Bladestorm would need to do absurd dmg

#

We wanna press cleave

minor gust
#

you lose an absurd amount of damage for casting bladestorm thats why ravager slayer was a thing because you can continue to use your skills while ravager is down

#

while bladestorm you can not

austere river
#

yes i understand the benefits of the ravager, but i also understand that when they buff bladestorm, at some point it is a valid option, and my question here for archi was that how close does it bring that cap now 😄

#

simple "you cant cast skills while at bladestorm" does not make it counter intuitive

slow saddle
#

Ravager is still choice for execute in slayer due to this

minor gust
#

well when you wanna spend your time pressing cleave its pretty counter intuitive

shut hound
slow saddle
#

Its the 1 reasons slayer arms feels bad in raid

#

No u send cs unless its stupidly close

minor gust
slow saddle
#

Also would never understand why u would want to unless we got fury bs

minor gust
austere river
#

i would most definatelly prefer playing bs if the tuning for it would not lose out much

minor gust
#

why not just play slayer in keys then

austere river
#

because i prefer colossus

why don't people play battlelord in raid

you dont have the points

just opportunity cost?

yaya

minor gust
#

simply a numbers game thats it

zenith warren
#

Arms on bandit doesnt need to swap to adds, right?

eager sigil
#

you should

minor gust
#

adds is the whole fight you should be cleaving off them onto the boss

eager sigil
#

the faster those adds die the less raid damage you take

shut hound
#

when did sudden death start stacking btw, is that new with TWW?

eager sigil
#

so kill them as fast as you can

shut hound
#

do u think we would play juggernaut if sudden death didn't stack, might be a dumb nothing question, just curious on thoughts

sacred zodiac
#

you sweep off of the reel assistants and if you're colossus you can make a demo hit the box adds maybe

minor gust
#

its pretty safe to demo and it half the bomb adds if the one thats fixated on you is in the back but if its one of the ones up front yeah GL getting a demo off

slow saddle
#

Ive got a q on stix. I wanna prog as arms coz why not. Collosus would it be worth playing with battlelord. Does it do the same as oab

#

Or should i just give up and play thane

eager sigil
#

i tried it as arms on reclear yesterday and it felt very bad imo

#

maybe my timings were shit

#

but stuff rarely is stacked enough to get good value

sturdy hearth
#

problem is it's pretty hard to get full value of colossus on Stix as adds will be most likely coming at random timings, being destacked

#

Your Demolish/cleave are not going to hit many adds imo, with thane you don't have much of this issue

idle ermine
#

hey guys, why is nelf the most popular arms race?

eager sigil

very popular race in general

#

just because of looks

idle ermine
#

for shadowmeld?

minor gust
#

looks good and meld

idle ermine
#

ah

#

meld for aggro mostly?

#

or targeted spells

minor gust

aggro and the utillity of breaking some mechanics

sacred zodiac

only for pack skips or melding dungeon mechanics rn

idle ermine

makes sense, ty guys

I'ma be real sad if I'm gonna miss the ravager Slayer Mugzee train because we suck and are still progging OAB

tacit crystal
#

ya that shit prob dead

minor gust
#

Probably

#

I can't remember what the numbers were so I don't know for sure

tacit crystal
#

i think the gain before execute is too big now

#

but it might still be worth if you are playing for kill and not parse

minor gust
#

Shouldn't matter on a fight like Mugzee when your heroing in execute and the only important part of the fight is the end

tacit crystal
#

yeah

#

but even then

minor gust
#

Arms is already afk till 35% might as well afk a lil harder

tacit crystal
tacit crystal
#

nah

#

just play different specs

shadow ibex
#

Probably better to use fatality if you want more p2 dmg not ravager

tacit crystal
minor gust
#

Probably but then I would have to use fatality

#

That talent still dog shit since CDs affect it

sacred zodiac
#

oh i should probs stop playing fatality post prog hmmge

shadow ibex
#

If you are after more p2 it is probably the only change you can do after the bs buff

tacit crystal
#

ik by the time i get to mugzee

#

it wont matter

#

so

shadow ibex
#

I'm starting to hate EB as slayer

Reset MS but idc I need to op anyway

if you get unlucky with procs and have to press slam 3 times in a row... jsut step into fire

And fuck that

That's also having 0 deft tho cuz fatal takes that point

Good times great spec

tacit crystal

me too

🙂

what did you get on sprocket

Slamming twice in a row should do something

Or 3 times

flat willow
#

SLAMMING

#

slamming 3 times in a row and losing juggernaut proc because no sd

minor gust
#

Sprocket pissed me off because we had a 1% wipe and I was cranking woulda been a 99 rank 3 then we killed it next pull with 2 people alive and I got an 82

tacit crystal
#

bro

#

im so baddd

minor gust
#

My prog kills if I don't die are usually purple or orange

shadow ibex
#

I think a guaranteed way to proc tact with slamming could be cool. That's honestly what I miss most about IP was at will generate an proc

#

Problem was p much used it on cd not in any intelligent way

#

And it was defensive

minor gust
#

I didn't mind IP gameplay at all but I understand why a lot of people thought it was cringe

#

Was nice removing slam off my bars and only using IP or TC

shadow ibex
#

I think being able to drop rage off gcd was awesome

flat willow
#

Right

shadow ibex
#

I really like playing with rage tho. I like charge weaving and having a swing timer and this ability over 80 rage instead of this one etc

flat willow
#

Swing timer and charge weaving is fine, even fun sometimes

#

Unless the boss has a fucked up hitbox

#

And you run for 2 seconds without being able to charge

minor gust
shadow ibex
#

Make it a talent okayge

#

1% diff

#

Like opp vs whatever the fuck

#

If people want to subscribe to that playstyle let em

flat willow
#

Focused rage my beloved

#

When you think about it, combustion is just old recklessness

#

And fire blast is just heroic strike

#

I'm gonna main mage

minor gust
#

Hot take but at this point in TWW just remove rage

flat willow
#

And macro everything to pretend I'm playing warrior

minor gust
#

Why we still using rage

#

It's not real and it doesn't matter

shadow ibex
#

Idk the point of rage at this point

#

It literally exists just for am

flat willow
#

That's what I always said, rage without off gcd dump is either cosmetic or you are perma rage starved (bad end)

shadow ibex
#

If execute had a cooldown you wouldn't notice it being gone

flat willow
#

Rage without off gcd dump is poor man energy

shadow ibex
#

Rage I mean

minor gust
#

It's why warrior especially arms desperately needs an overhaul man. The spec is just so lost

shadow ibex
#

Yea

flat willow
#

To be peak arms you need 2 things

#

Off gcd rage dump

#

And cs tactician

shadow ibex
#

I think we need to post about rage more

#

I didn't realize till now how dumb it is

minor gust
#

Doesn't have to be off gcd tho just need rage dumps like SOS WW in DF

#

Just like rampage for fury

#

We constantly complained all of DF we just needed better ways to spend the mass rage we got. But instead they did a rage rebalance in TWW that didn't really accomplish anything

shadow ibex
#

It changed nothing

minor gust
#

We lowered the amount of rage you guys generate but it's still completely cosmetic and doesn't matter and SOS is dead have fun!

weak rain
#

bring back df sks

#

and make it so sks buff the next MS to apply rend aswell(also make MS like CS, so it applies DW before the damage of MS, so it benefits from DW)

minor gust

Yeah kinda nuts that cleave and MS works that way but whatever

So many things they've tried

minor gust
#

Same I really only play melee specs

shadow ibex
#

And I feel like this class still is the same kt was since bfa

#

The biggest change in the past 8 years was a hot fix to make cs not parry

weak rain
#

"bug" fix

shadow ibex
#

And iftk matching cs

shadow ibex
#

If someone last played this game in bfa play warrior now

#

Keep ms on cd press op procs

#

True now true then

weak rain
#

nah, this iteration is more like SL

#

press op press ms

#

bfa you cared a lot about spending rage

minor gust
#

Clearly let's just go back to the start of DF when we ignored OP and spammed slam

#

Good times

shadow ibex
#

Bfa didn't care about rage really

#

We were using ww to dumb rage instead of slam cuz it cost more

#

It's been bad for years. They've tried every time and it's the same. How many times our class tree has changed since df launch

#

Still the same shit only I must take Shockwave or bolt to get armored to teeth

tacit crystal

It won't take Ravager place in M+ colossus build?

But haste helps ofc

#

It's at 50% atm

we get more uptime as we start execute

#

right

shadow ibex

Yea but also a shorter phase

I think last time I checked sim was at least 50% if not more

How good is the Wowanalyzer? For M+ if it matters.
Its telling me to cleave more, but can't really see how I can fit more cleaves in.

Do people cleave as soon as there is 2 targets or more?

tacit crystal
#

you cleave at 3

#

can replace slam during 2

tiny swan
#

Oh ok, I've been trying to do it at 2+, but I still get the message:

Try to cast Cleave more often.
234 out of 610 possible casts. You kept it on cooldown 38% of the time. (>60% is recommended)

tacit crystal
#

hard for me to tell without a pov or a log

#

so press buttons more ig

Its 98 parse for that key level so its fine

Hi everyone, I would like to know what are the best stats for warr arms

icy mulch
#

Typically Crit/haste. Ilvl being a more determinate thing. Either way, simming is the best answer.

sturdy wind
#

dose the bladestorm buff also buff ravanger?

grand lark
#

ok thanks the critic in what percentage?

shadow ibex
#

Especially after they somehow convinced people the hero specs prio different stuff

#

Just ignore the fact they use the same exact talents

#

And have the same amount of MS resets

#

But yea sure one cares about ms resets more okayge

shadow ibex
#

These hero specs that use the same st talents are so different

#

I assume same aoe but no one plays slayer

icy mulch
#

Hero talents are just a new way of having an excuse for ten more levels.

folowup quesion is bladestorm going to be more viable than ravanager after the buff in m+

No

Unless you tell your tank what you're doing, it will most likely cause more issues.
