Demo in raid or jug in raid

when i simmed my character for both builds its about a 100k diff

Demo in keys is where its cancer starts to show

All this bleed bullshit

#

Why is demolish so annoying to use. I feel like it needs an unlimited range on the last hit of the cast. Losing your entire demolish cus the mob moved 1 yd away is so frustrating

dire hinge
#

yeah valid

#

can also heroic leap back onto it and it doesn't interrupt your cast

#

Leap doesn't cancel demolish?

Is slayer that much worse in m+?

I mean the other one lol

Not colossus

you can play slayer now if you want

its still not better than colossus but its not trash like it was

Okay thats nice at least

It’s true though like, some folks really dislike demolish and now it’s very viable (especially for Most Players)

how old is that bladestorm animation

Slayer buff disappointed me after trying to make it work most of the week. I’m just going to play Fury for m+ rest of the season. Cause fuck colossus lol.

#

your gonna do more dmg and be more useful as arms slayer than you would fury but ok

I love colossus cause atleast it isn't purely passive lmao

It has to be the same lol

lol nope you should look at the wotlk version

it still has that old school wow energy

just a model spinning fast not really an animation

#

hey guys, at what target # should i stop using MS and OP with ss and instead just spam cleave? or whats the priority there

shadow ibex
#

you are going to use both of them

#

cleave has a CD

rare kite
#

well not stop. but cleave is prio at 3 or more

gusty eagle
#

but my priority is cleave even with ss uo yeah?

#

up

rare kite
#

yeah at 3 targets or more. at 2 targets with ss it's ms>op>cleave

gusty eagle
#

is it ok to stop cleaving to wait for next warbreaker window and cash in a big Collateral or nah?

rare kite
#

case by case basis, but yes it is often the play

shadow ibex
#

you can if you want

#

the APL wont do it and not the kind of thing you can really make a hard rule for

#

its just something you have to intuit

#

Whats better on mug for killing adds, fury or arms?

#

(for mythic)

magic canopy
#

mugzee?

#

adds dont matter at all

real vault
#

arms by far, they start in execute range + u ss it on boss
for the goons its whatever

smoky kayak
#

if its within 5 or 6 seconds or holding it allows you to hit more targets, then it can certainly be worthwhile

#

but holding 10+ seconds for the same number of mobs starts to get kind of questionable

gusty eagle
#

For example. Its ok to hold it if a pack its dying to pop off in the next one in dungs like rookery or psf for example

smoky kayak
#

Yeah, hitting several more targets makes a bigger difference than cooldowns even

gusty eagle
#

ravager should be used in the opener normally yeah? there's no minmax there

stable fiber
#

yeah

#

i sometimes hold collateral damage for ravager even though its technically worse overall, i like seeing big numbers

gusty eagle
#

i have another question. The execute phase in aoe is played the same as in st ye?

stable fiber
#

also execute phase in aoe is kinda fake as colossus unless its 2-3 target, there is a heavy emphasis on just pushing cleave as it does so much damage on like 5 target for example

stable fiber
#

rotation changes based on the amount of enemies you are hitting so just pay attention and you should be chillin

#

Anyone that is progging or killed mythic Stix I got a few questions......are you using ST build or AoE build if so what are you speccing into?

dim basalt
#

I used ST because aoe doesnt do anything but pad

slow saddle
#

Slayer

#

Aoe

#

Throw in some bladestorm

#

U can play as arms, and just take cleave

#

And just send bladestorm + roar on adds for pad

anyone got a stand alone juggernaut tracker? or what do people use?

hello what is ,,normal,, ammount of crit ?

hollow plover
latent yew
#

i swaped from fury

#

673

#

now i got like 15% crit

hollow plover
#

thats cool, i hope you're enjoying arms, dual speccing is fun

#

but there still is no optimal or normal crit number to go for

latent yew
#

cant do sht in higher keys with fury

#

oh ok

hollow plover
#

the answer is that you should sim your character to find out what items do more damage in ST and AoE scenarios

latent yew
#

well its same items basicaly

#

i could add crit in crafted gear tho

hollow plover
#

I personally sim my crafted gear before i end up crafting them, to check which stats i want from the piece

#

big recommend

latent yew
#

my crafted gera was for fury

#

so it shitloads of mastery

maiden notch
#

Arms gets along with fury gear just fine.

#

It’s not true the other way around tho.

#

If I optimize my gear for fury it ends up suboptimal for Arms by like 4-5k dps in a st sim.

If I optimize the gear for arms. Fury loses out on like almost 30-35k.

When u plan on raiding and m+. As arms and fury, id simout both specs and judge where I can find a decent balance. After all wrong gems and wrong enchants/crafts will never make the difference between a 99 or 98log. It’s almost always you

Oh that’s true, but you get along just fine.

I heard that two weeks' worth of Dinars are required for a two-handed weapon.

#

Is it different this season?

#

I'm wondering if two-handed weapons require 6 Dinars.

no you need 1 dinar for it as far as i know

You're talking about 3 Dinars, right?

#

after your sweeping strikes runs out in M+, is there a minimum # of targets to use Cleave? Like if there is 3 is it more worth it to just ST or still worth to cleave on CD?

wdym?

#

depends

#

how many stacks

#

also like are u 5seconds off having cds so u can super clap

is it big pull next

#

There’s some nuance with sweeping strikes but that’s the basic version and covers like 90% of it

tardy hare
#

Why is no one playing blunt instruments with blademasters torment. I just messed around with it and your single target goes up a massive amount for almost no aoe loss

#

its like a 17k dps loss in aoe for 100k dps gain in single target

dim basalt
#

Its definitely a big aoe loss wdym

16 floodgate

15 cinder full wipe

#

the haste amp helps with collatoral stacks i dont know how to explain it but it seems fine

#

and if you are competing with classes that do aoe better the prio and single target seems good

dim basalt
#

Warbreaker gains a lot more dps than collateral ever could

tardy hare
#

does it though? 1 extra stack is the same damage amp as warbreaker

#

almost

#

so if you get 2-3 more stacks consistantly

dim basalt
#

Thats not how math works

tardy hare
#

warbreaker 30% collatoral stack 25%

its one thing if i was just simming

#

If we have no stacks of Collaterla Damage, but we have Sweeping Strikes, Warbreaker, and Demolish up, do we use SS, WB, and Demolish then just use Collateral Damage stacks without Warbreaker?

Why they taxing us again

When we got transferable currency as an actual system

Tbh all this means is you can stockpile valor on Alts if the system stays in

lose 10k aoe for 108k single target

its the top one

i linked two

That's dungeon slice

That's not aoe

Pretty sure Tmy discord simmed aoe with dungeon slice

but i will humor you

Dungeon slice is not AOE it's a mix

i wondered why i was so tanky in so many places

3rd boss of dfc, 2 big mobs after garden boss of workshop, swamp boss in floodgate

#

fkn second wind is bugged

i healed myself 128 m on 3rd boss of Dfc XD

its bugged in so many places, just take second wind in m+

It's not bugged just how its always worked

#

well it shouldnt work when i am taking damage, and its working all fight

guys i'm starting my journey on arms and i have a question because on any website/guide do not have it:

  • if i have MS proc, Cleave 'unproc' and OP proc ... the prio 'rotation' goes MS > Cleave > OP or changes something ?

i'm asking that because my MS is usually over the roof on my keys ... and for what i've read/log/saw cleave should be like 45% higher than MS on damage(comparing the two) ... idk if i'm not abusing improved sweeps with ravager enough or anything to take into the matter of rising my Cleave damage

(only keys i do not raid with my warrior)

outer holly
#

Im sorry but what do you mean by unproc, like it's on CD?

crude junco
#

not on CD, just regular Cleave

#

no procs, nothing

#

open to use XD

outer holly
#

I don't believe there's any procs that change colossus prio

sleek crow
#

In 3+ targets cleave is always prio

#

Always make sure it's on cd

outer holly
#

There's an argument to be made for prio damage by using MS over Cleave when one add tends to live vastly longer than the rest of the pack

#

but in general for DPS purposes olive is right

crude junco
#

ooooooooooooh, that could be it, because i'm always trying to use MS proc and OP proc even with 3+ targets leaving most of the time cleave unused, because i thought they would compare to damage with procs on

sleek crow
#

Also in single target only time you prioritize OP over MS is when it resets

#

Might be the same with AOE

outer holly
#

Slayer does indeed watch it's opportunist procs, but you're not running slayer in m+

crude junco
#

nah, not a fan of slayer gameplay tbh

sleek crow
#

Just in AOE make sure cleave is always on CD

crude junco
#

so even with procs on, stuffs proc'ing back-to-back, cleave should always get the prio even without the OP modifier on cleave ?

outer holly
#

yes, unless you're running dreadnaught talent

#

then OP overtakes MS but not Cleave in aoe when SS is up

crude junco
outer holly
#

Ah so yeah, it's one more step you have to remember then

#

But I don't see it affecting your rotation all that much

#

In general your aoe rotation when not prio'ing (outside of CDs and keeping bleeds/etc. rolling) winds up looking a lot like Cleave > MS > OP > Cleave

crude junco
#

okayge thank you alot @outer holly @sleek crow

outer holly
#

then you just apply the logic Cleave reset? Cleave again, OP reset inside of SS? OP over MS but still cleave on CD

crude junco
#

i wasnt putting that prio on cleave, that would be 101% the problem for not high'ing up my cleave damage, thank you alot

#

i was always trying to put OP to get martial prowess and than cleave

outer holly
#

the only real trick is if you're trying to optimize your overall damage is to make sure you're going MS into OP and not the other way around consuming the martial prowess with your MS instead of the cleave

fair iris
#

so guys, what about dreadnaught? does overpower have higher prio than MS then? inside or outside ss?

lean geode
#

You don't really play DN except maybe in slayer arms m+ spec

#

In which case I think it's slightly higher prio than MS

shadow ibex
#

Fuck that

lean geode
#

In aoe*

#

Obviously not single target

#

But even then just playing soa and brain off cleave > MS > OP is probably basically the same

minor gust
#

DN on colossus will not change prios you still want Cleave > MS > OP for demo cdr

crude junco
#

@outer holly ok my cleave went up a shit ton after your tips, this was a 7 to test it out, i'm 650 with low crit/low haste and those guys were 667+ farming crests, thank you alot peepoBlush

My own personal one? 90 mil.
Biz hit a 94 mil though.

I had 450% damage boost from Collateral.

umbral granite
#

Anyone got a good Collateral WA?

#

Im starting to realize that my overall DPS as a warrior is so heavily tied to how still a tank stays during the pull and how quickly stuff can be grouped together

umbral granite
#

well i found outlaw rogues dont care really

dim basalt
#

Because theyre target capped lmao

#

Cant hit 20 mobs anyway

umbral granite
#

just cleave seems to be such a small 90deg arch

#

so when stuff is more spread out it hurts a bit

Do you guys have rend on your bars? Or just let TC take care of it?

icy mulch

Look up Collateral tracker on Wago.io.

dim basalt
#

I have both in my bars but you dont need it

#

Im a cringe minmaxer okayge

umbral granite
#

Do you guys notice much of a difference with Dreadnaught vs SoA?

#

also, do you spread rend while grouping and then once set up a little, just forget it exists and dump damage?

teal fossil
shadow ibex
#

At start of sweeping if it's more than 5

umbral granite
#

like, lets say Priory 1st pull

#

ill put it on the 4 trash mobs at the start

#

again while grouping

#

and thats about it. at that point im Rav into TR, SS, avatar, CS Demolish and cleave/MS spamming

1 does AOE

#

1 does ST

as slayer i feel like dreadnaught deffo worth it, but man op procs is fun 😄

you are not gonna make that difference yourself

Fair, but shaming them by saying I’m destroying them on adds will

itll lead to complacency

#

You want to keep rend on as many as possible

covert drift
#

TC only affects 5 targets no?

teal fossil
#

Rend does as much as a MS over the course of the bleed

teal fossil
#

So you need to tc 4 times to hit 20

shadow ibex
#

Sweep

covert drift
#

Yeah i was just watching some critcake videos

#

Seems he only uses TC on pull and after sweeps end and after using the colateral damage

#

Then he fits a TC in there

#

I think i was overusing TC then

#

Because i was thinking keeping rend on everything was paramount

dim basalt
#

You only use TC if you have absolutely nothing else to press mid-pull

#

Which is pretty rare though

spiral coral
#

My WA tells me when rend is about to drop off/when to reapply tc/rend

covert drift
#

Can you share?

spiral coral

Also you should just get used to looking above the npcs name and the buffs/debuffs above them

I think I’m using Luxthos wa for arms

celest sage
#

yeah thats the downside of it

teal fossil
celest sage
#

but still decent for sustaining ig

teal fossil
#

Each rend does as much as a cleave over the course of the bleed

celest sage
#

that depends on how many targets are there

#

so if its a small pack you don't get much then in big packs

delicate mulch
teal fossil
#

Yes but saying rend itself doesn’t do damage is just wrong

delicate mulch
teal fossil
#

You would press it over MS on 3t+ no sweeping

delicate mulch
teal fossil
#

Yeah and ravager doesn’t do much overall either

#

You still press that

delicate mulch
#

For more demos

celest sage
#

yep

#

but the procs happen alot for me so its hard to do the ms procs

fresh spire
#

Tc mostly comes into play before cds and after sweep. Tc is competitive on aoe when sweep isn't up but ofc doesn't scale sweep and using it during sweep costs you a colat stack

delicate mulch
grave cedar
#

Does anybody have a weak aura for when to leap out of mythic mugzee gaols? (Similar to the arakara last boss black hole leap timer)

teal fossil
#

It’s still bugged to double the rend applications

#

Since dragon flights

#

@shadow ibex keeps reminding me of it

#

But yeah collat is valid

bright scarab
#

For Arms in M+ is it highly reliant on Collateral Damage to perform well in higher keys? What is the best set up for burst? I’ve been doing Sweeping Strikes to get stacks, once it’s over then use Thunderous Roar, Ravager, Avatar, Warbreaker, Demolish, then use Cleave with stacks. Is this right? I can seem to burst well but my overall damage is behind, where people end up around 4m I’m usually around 3.25 or so. Then again it is against like Ret pallies and DKs

delicate mulch
#

Use ss with your avatar burst window don’t wait for collateral damage stacks

#

Don’t wait till it’s over

#

And wait for demolish to get to 10 stack before using it

#

By the time collateral damage pops up warbreaker and demo are up again then you hit those into your big cleave

viral garden
#

UH DK and Ret Paladin have crazy damage

fresh spire
#

Wasn't even aware of this

viral garden
#

You shouldn't wait something to press our main target spell so if nothing come with Collateral Damage just press it

covert drift
#

Jesus man, not to be a cry baby but if war is to be without utility it needs to have the damage to compensate

#

What would you guys think would help war the most in terms of utility? Most ppl say lust but blizzard clearly don't want to give lust to war because of the tank spec

What else? Brez?

#

Bring back banners from mop? Demo banner, skull banner, etc...

dire hinge
#

"yes"

kindred girder
#

war should have a lust

dire hinge
#

more = gooder, dont really mind which direction they pick tbh

kindred girder
#

lust banner is so on theme

celest sage
kindred girder
#

absofruitly

celest sage
#

or a shout

covert drift
#

They don't do it because it would give lust to prot warrior, the only tank spec with lust

kindred girder
#

yeah but as of now prot has nothing either

#

except that thicc dam

covert drift
#

Prot if not weak by any means

celest sage
#

prot is decent

kindred girder
#

i'm talking brez/lust not weakness

gray herald
#

I think more damage would help warrior the most in terms of utility

covert drift
#

Yeah and i'm talking about arms/fury not being competitive compared to other melee meta specs

#

prot is fine as it is

#

it don't need anything

kindred girder
#

fine as is in what regard

covert drift
#

Being a good tank spec with its strengths and weakness and

kindred girder
#

they fit into the meta based on which dps fit into the meta, but they don't bring anything inherently unique

covert drift
#

Prot tank it's not "weak" to the meat

#

At least as far as i know

dire hinge
#

interrupting shout, lust, shout brez, some sort of "throw" utility, vacuum leaps, armor sundering , etc. They can pick any direction they want to, but it would be nice to see (something)

kindred girder
#

i never said they're weak dawg

dire hinge
#

KEKW make pummel sweep

celest sage
#

storm bolt

covert drift
#

bruh but what i'm trying to say is, giving more stuff to a spec that is already strong don't bodes well right?

#

So giving lust to prot that is already strong would make it S+ tier

kindred girder
#

they're not gonna give it to them atm

dire hinge
#

true they should nerf us more hmmNod i agree

#

we always deserve it tbf

covert drift
#

Need a way to give something to arms/fury without breaking prot

celest sage
#

they did alot to our rage regen

kindred girder
#

this is a balance patch away

celest sage
#

fury has so much rage regen though, idk about arms

kindred girder
#

not right this second lol

viral garden
#

War is just an old design.
We can apply only 5 rend.
Fury is cap target
We have nothing good for M+

#

They just need to rework warrior

dire hinge
#

we can apply more than 5 rends? 🤔 just press it more times?

kindred girder
#

hunter is gonna get a nod a majority of the time over war bc they bring lust, in a pug setting

covert drift
#

Yeah, i feel war needs an overhaul to modernize the spells

#

Like ret

#

I feel arms have too many buttons specially on the gcd

celest sage
#

i mean the way war is in general i don't like it

kindred girder
#

like if war gets a lust it inadvertently buffs rogue, monk and feral

viral garden
celest sage
#

its like 5 buttons most of the time and not counting cdss

covert drift
#

We need to press sweep, then ravager, and then warbreaker, and the warbreaker gcd makes me lose bonegrinder time

#

don't feel good

#

Some stuff need to be combined

celest sage
#

prot is just plain low key

#

and arms is just not that fun for me

covert drift
viral garden
#

It's like on the old days we have to choose between dragon roar or bladestorm and when we have both + Odyn fury they hard nerf it a lot. I speak about fury

covert drift
#

this is true in most tanks but specially prot

viral garden
#

Rework of talent tree was shit for us

celest sage
viral garden
#

I Hope they rework our class but I think it's for Midnight perhaps later

celest sage
#

i wonder what hero talents we will have in midnight

#

maybe even void elf paladins

covert drift
#

Is there any other spec that works like ret templar does?

#

When wake of ashes is on cd

#

It becomes hammer of light

#

The same button

viral garden
#

I like fury playstyle but the captarget is horrible for M+

celest sage
#

i mean i tried dawn

covert drift
#

I feel fury playstyle is fine

covert drift
#

just a numbers game for them

#

arms needs a design change

#

too many buttons

celest sage
#

covert drift
#

too many gcds

viral garden
#

Yes

celest sage
#

speek it

viral garden
#

Just watch how they make UH DK si easy to play

vapid igloo
#

Arms doesn't need a redesign or design change, they need to hone in on what the fuck the spec should be

viral garden
#

Even Havoc is so easy back again

vapid igloo
#

rn its just Fury but more boring

covert drift
#

My man how tf does arms compare to fury?

#

Wtf

dim basalt
#

Nah arms definitely needs a redesign

vapid igloo
#

no rage management, every gcd full, just keep pressing buttons

#

its the same spec as fury with different flavor

#

🤷‍♂️

#

don't @ me

covert drift
#

My man you talking about colossus playing m+?

flat willow
#

those too many buttons of arms, are they in the room with us

kindred girder
#

fr

celest sage
flat willow
#

yes, every spec in the game is gcd locked

#

that's because the game feels like garbage when you have to do nothing in your rotation

vapid igloo
#

☝️ 🤓 um actually feral is not gcd locked at all times

viral garden
#

All warrior need redesign

covert drift
# flat willow yes, every spec in the game is gcd locked

It's not about that. It's about the interactions between the spells.

Like i said, i need to press sweep, then ravager, and while ravager is ticking and bonegrinder is ticking i press warbreaker, losing seconds of bonegrinder

#

Don't that feel awful?

viral garden
#

Fury need something else than rampage

kindred girder
#

idc about fury honestly

viral garden
#

Something to spend rage on in AoE

#

Like divine storm

kindred girder
#

fury has been dog since WOD

viral garden
#

Arms have good buttons like Cleave

#

But SS is boring

#

2 targets...

kindred girder
#

SS is great tho, it's specifically useful in 2 target fights

#

they just made it interact with CD

vapid igloo
#

SS is fucking iconic

covert drift
#

I don't feel SS is boring, It builds collateral damage that is the true AoE thing and keeps the identify of 2 target cleave

#

Specially strong on raids

viral garden
#

And make our Bladestorm great again plz

covert drift
#

Maybe get rid of the 0.5s gcd?

vapid igloo
#

Get rid of bladestorm

covert drift
#

Nah bro you're jus trolling

vapid igloo
#

No I'm cultured

covert drift
#

let's get rid of bladestorm and SS the iconic things of war since classic

#

sure

dim basalt
#

bladestorm sucks balls

#

afk for 5 seconds how fun

vapid igloo
#

bladestorm wasn't until wrath

#

new gen players, absolutely despicable

#

do not speak upon me

covert drift
#

I started on mop, true

#

Now that was a fun arms

vapid igloo
#

Most fun M+ arms was the season in Dragonflight where non-bladestorm builds were viable and good, simply pressing buttons and living the sweeping strikes life

celest sage
#

looks bladestorm was great back in the day but now days bladestorm kinda useless

kindred girder
#

they could make bladestorm an alternate version of sweeping strikes where you press it and you cleave to 5+ targets but you lose SS

#

and it's only like a 40% cleave instead of 75%

#

iconic

vapid igloo
#

This guy knows class design

kindred girder
#

oh wait that's blade flurry

vapid igloo
#

you should join my guild

kindred girder

we should all just play rogue ig

oh well

to each it's own i guess

kindred girder

give war lust and blade flurry

turn outlaw into a pistol spec

fuck those guys

outlaw should just not be a spec because hunters are literlay guns and bows

I would love to cleave to hit 180º of wher i'm facing

NO

T R U E

very true

winter robin
#

During execute phase, if I get MS cd procs, should I prioritize them or keep doing executes?

winter robin
#

Raid

dim basalt
#

Keep executing to get 2x EP

#

And use OP procs

winter robin
#

Only the OP procs?

dim basalt
#

Yes, unless you have a spare gcd

winter robin
#

I always use 2 exe and 1 OP b4 MS coz I have enoff haste

dim basalt
#

There are times where you do MS -> Opp -> Exe -> Opp -> Exe -> MS

winter robin
#

Enough *

sacred zodiac
#

haste doesnt affect your execute phase really

winter robin
#

You cast quicker, so you got more time w8ing on CD for MS to be ready

dim basalt
#

MS is hasted as well, no?

sacred zodiac
#

ms most certainly is hasted aswell

#

3 gcds betweens ms holy moly

teal fossil

Yeah 3 gcds always

Until you go above 100%

Yeah it is, but doesn't feel like it that much at that point, I might be wrong

And what about BS?

Only use when I'm out of rage?

With 2x EP

With or without cs doesnt really matter

winter robin

Oh!

Buffs the first MS from unhinged

I would prefer much more Execute have more damage, but with CD, or more rage cost.

slow saddle
#

Execute does loads of dmg

#

Just need 15 stacks first😅

smoky kayak
#

Putting a CD on Execute would just turn Arms into Fury

hollow wave
#

Maybe, but execute looks like a filler in execute phase, doesn't feel right to me

slow saddle
#

Lol filler???

#

Its a huge spender

#

Unless u talkin about col m+

#

But there thw whole point is not using execute😅

smoky kayak
slow saddle
#

I mean alternative is only pressin exe

smoky kayak
#

sure, some things (MS w/ EP) still take priority over it, but you don't really want it to be the highest priority button - the rotation would be pretty boring if all you did was press one button from 35% -> 0%

slow saddle
#

Condemn is back!!!

#

🤣

#

1 button rotation 100-80 and 35-0

hollow wave
smoky kayak
#

Colossus/Battlelord is a different story, since it specifically isn't focused on Execute, and frankly that's a good thing - while it might seem odd that an Arms build isn't big on Execute, it provides a contrast to Slayer (much in the same way that Slayer and Thane do for Fury)

#

I mean Execute is pretty impactful

slow saddle
#

Ep and juggernaut

flat willow
#

I really like colossus not caring about execute

slow saddle
#

Makes exe big

#

Its nice we got options

flat willow
#

maybe remove juggernaut and bake some of its power into execute

smoky kayak
#

it sounds more like you just want to see a really big number pop up on your screen... which is fine, but you can already get that from Mortal Strike w/ EP (which comes from Execute, retaining its importance)

slow saddle
#

Or delete slayer

smoky kayak
#

and in all seriousness, more people should just turn off their damage numbers and stop worrying about what the biggest number you can't read popping up on screen is

flat willow
#

that's impossible

well earlier you said damage

slow saddle

Like i feel my dmg going up after 35%

hollow wave

Thats why iam saying my opnions, of course its subjective

smoky kayak
#

either way, Execute is a very important button to Arms, and doesn't really need a change

slow saddle
#

And does good dmg per clicl

smoky kayak
#

turning it into Fury's Execute would just make the two specs more samey, which would be boring

slow saddle

Its just that it interacts with ms

Which is a good thinf

Archi, while we have you here, how do you suggest i sim colossus in dungeons? St patchwerk 5 min? i mean for top gear

like I get your premise, but you're not thinking it all the way through, just turning Execute into the nuke means you never press MS, really ruining the rotation

ok, i just have so much more crit than any other top arms i check

yeah weird thing is its asking me for more crit on gems and stuff i think, and then its so diffrent for slayer when i'm raiding

was wondering is it better to optimize for slayer and play colossus or other way around

slayer raid seems to be much more haste and mastery

That 40% at 4min isn't trivial, gotta get people out of cages, people need to learn how to leave them by themselves too (like heroic leap out) to meet the DPS check and what not for uptime and for the first times you reach p2 you're likely still going to be lusting to phase to match that finel ~4ish% to push at the right time, and that's without deaths (which are also more common in the first pulls before p2)
