bronze tiger
#

ah, sim is always the answer

stable fiber
#

@fickle siren what trinkets do you have rn

#

also can you send a sim with your current gear if possible, idc if its droptimizer quick sim or top gear

fickle siren
#

I have pacemaker Hero and house of card Hero

#

do you mythic raid and will you kill OAB on mythic?

shadow ibex

stable fiber
shadow ibex
#

i just replaced my hero tier helm with gallybux. dont think we saw war token on oab kill and only 1 helm in raid

stable fiber
#

well the chest tier token

shadow ibex
#

yea

#

and it was a lot easier to not extend in amir i guess

#

you could farm up to smoldy

#

vs i think a lot of guilds extend after sprock

stable fiber
#

yeah

#

our guild extended after stix

#

since that boss fucks us lol

shadow ibex
#

smold you got 6 bosses to farm

#

before you have to extend

#

ig the loot was terrible tho. pips

stable fiber
#

man dragonflight was hell if you wanted to catalyst a chest piece and not hope for tier

shadow ibex
#

but we didnt want that

the guild i was in only got to kill dath once

but i got my chest

i joined my guild when they where on dathea

that was a fun fury fight ngl

Dathea can sugma nuts

funny that

Am I crazy or does our damage fall off hard at higher ilvl

#

?

serene thicket
#

Im doing shit damage compared to other specs and I don’t know why. There’s like 3 buttons to press outside of the opener

I’m just going to top out the level thing that makes it easier and then do the stuff when it’s maxed out

Hi all, for crafting Dawnthread Lining better or Darkmoon Sigil: Ascension for M+

fresh spire
#

Dawn and dusk threads should beat ascension in keys as it requires ramp up time and constant uptime to keep it up fully while dusk/dawn is always at max value

#

I want to get better att playing around collateral damage in m+. On stuff like a big first pull in a dungeon, or any pull with every CD ready, do you first build up Collateral damage stacks with only SS and then pop every CD as SS ends for a huge Collateral damage cleave?

balmy kindle
icy zinc
#

I often do that because it is easy, but most damage Amps run out before SS ends if you do that so I fear I would lose damage?

dim basalt
#

warlords enjoyers unite

balmy kindle
#

Would run warlords but blademaster is too good keks

dim basalt
#

Im pretty sure the difference between both is very minimal

#

Especially since blademasters has 0 value in ST

#

And thats without accounting possible damage loss of not properly playing around blademasters

balmy kindle
#

My main issue with blademaster is that recklessness lasts wayyy too short though deadge , you can barely get enough GCDs in

#

Blademasters has some value as long as it's not 1T ( majority of m+)

dim basalt
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

If CD was multiplicative (lol) it would absolutely be that one

#

But since it isnt, it doesnt matter much

If It doesn't then it's bruh

#

did they ever fix the animation of sweeping strikes + execute or is this game still literally unplayable

little jay
#

oh huh interesting... thanks for the info!

potent cedar
#

god I need to figure out how to consistently get those 15 collat + buffs cleaves

boreal quartz
#

cast a lot of spells during your entire sweep

#

maybe snipe a smallie with WB for more IFTK haste

#

if you TC early during pull setup (assuming aggro is ok) you wont have to tc in ss

#

which is good

#

Is it only possible for Arms warrior to get 3 mil + overall is to make use of the sweep when its buffed by 2 x overpowers + active ravager (buff) + warbreaker (on target) + demolish buff on us ?

#

im asking about M+

hollow plover
#

what does overpower buff have to do with warbreaker and demolish

wanton sierra
#

you need to pay attention on collateral stacks, but dont try too much to allign your buttons, ideally you just 2x op and send it

hexed snow
#

Bro... 💔 🥀

hollow plover
#

ah hes talking about collat

#

also no you can easily ignore collat existing and still get 4mil overall

#

in an aoe dungeon

#

or 3mil in smth like TOP

hexed snow
#

Click the cleave button and you are good on DMG 👍

serene sail
#

hmm i see , mostly i struggle to exceed the 2.7 mil when it comes to overall .. so i was just wondering if all the other player who do 4 mil easy ..manage to pull off the collat combo via pre-stacking first pulls and what not

hollow plover
#

pre stacking isnt necessary

#

and think of collateral damage as another cooldown

#

like warbreaker

#

or roar

#

I genuinely dont know how you do not break 2.7mil unless you're severely undergeared or making severe rotational mistakes

#

do you have a log by chance?

dim basalt
#

Pulls matter a lot as well

hollow plover
#

on a dungeon by dungeon basis for sure but it appears he always hovers below 2.7mil across multiple keys

serene sail
#

ah guess I just need to keep practising , ty for helping tho .....btw generally you guys use demolish at 5 stacks when you don't have any stacks earlier on such as the first pull of the dung or even then you wait till it accumulates 10 stacks

hollow plover
#

pretty much

#

low stacked demolish after a long pause/death in pure ST where you cant stack properly, i guess

#

but generally no you have so much crit, that a swept mortal strike gets you like 4 stacks at once

serene sail
#

ahh gotcha .. thanks man

hollow plover
#

at least with the reck ava talent

hollow plover
dim basalt
#

But generally, at 10 unless all your cds run out before you get there

opal nexus
# serene sail hmm i see , mostly i struggle to exceed the 2.7 mil when it comes to overall .. ...

im glad someone brought this up today cause im 675 and ive been noticing im starting to not scale very well. im 3k io and i usually sit in the 3-3.4m overall range unless the tank is a psychopath. what ive been doing is watching and mimicking critcakes movement patterns for maximum uptime and its been probably the largest flat dps increase ive ever seen. if that helps. also the highest rank key right now with an arms war is 4m overall dps so that makes me feel better too

hollow plover
urban iron
#

As well as the time the packs live

#

If the packs are dying before sweep is falling off or shortly after you’re losing a lot of collat dps

#

And if the tank is pulling very tiny your dps will fall off

#

Also 4m wcl dps is prob higher to 5m details dps

hollow plover
#

this is rookery 20

#

by farover

opal nexus
#

That was also a top which is a low dps dungeon

hollow plover
#

"dps while active" is relevant

urban iron
#

I’m not super arms big brain but I think having a sham would also be hugely beneficial to your dps

hollow plover
#

its not equal to details dps but its the closes u can get

opal nexus
#

exactly, his highest cinder was almost 6 so its really dependent on everythiing ellse

hollow plover
urban iron
#

I usually run with a sham when I am forced to dps and skyfury resets are huge in st

#

You also may want to examine your build - if you’re playing juggernaut/execute you may be losing out a lot if you’re in lower keys because bosses and mobs aren’t living enough for you to really get value

Hi warriors!
Where can i find good info about rotation?

#

Heyo one question, why do you double dawnthread lining as arms instead of single dawnthread + writhing armor banding :D?

urban iron
#

I don’t think dawnthread is a nerubian enchant

Therefore the banding doesnt work

ah true

warped prism
#

Ughhh… cant decide ret main or arms. Mainly play keys. Kinda worried ret will get boring after a while but i do find it fun atm

Have 2 dps specs is p cool as the one on pally may get stale after a bit

void sigil
#

Well you're in a warrior discord, so you know what we're leaning towards Pepexecute

#

Personally I find both Arms and Fury great this season - and have plenty of friends really enjoying Ret.

In general you bring a fair bit as Ret, so might be easier to get into keys if you dont have a group

willow grove
#

basically the only reason to go Ret ^. But idk, as an alt.. zug zug is nice.

sick leaf
sacred zodiac
#

ye ig fair enough

willow grove
#

And if you think Ret will be boring... I mean... our rotation and shit to do.. isn't that thought provoking.

sick leaf
#

That’s why you would do it if it worked

#

But it doesn’t work

#

So we shouldn’t do it lol

#

Last night I decided to give up on fury and moved all my crafted pieces to arms focus. Sad day. I genuinely find fury more fun. But arms is just better in m+. Hard day

fast wedge
#

noob question - can i play bladestorm over ravager with Colossus build? I just really love bladestorm lol

crisp reef
#

if all the guides say to use skipper citrine (150%) but it sims less then the windsinger citrine(highest stat) which should i use?

urban iron
#

If you like getting invited to keys above 14 without waiting 45 minutes, play dh

fast wedge
#

@urban iron what about me? haha

urban iron
#

You can sim both talents and see how much of a loss it would be

fast wedge
#

any idea what the loss in dps % would look like?

urban iron
#

That will be dependent on your gear, you’d need to sim it

void sigil
#

If you really like Bladestorm I would recommend you to play Slayer instead, but play what you enjoy bud - nothing stopping you 🙂

fast wedge
#

I am currently playing slayer, but i find the rotatation a little confusing (tracking marked for execution and sudden death). probably cus im totally new to war.

void sigil
#

You can play bladestorm as Colossus too, but on your opener into packs of enemies your Demolish would not stack as fast to its maximum (10) - but I am sure you could play it. Wont be optimal, but you can play it

#

As long as you're having fun, fuck it. Play what you enjoy

warped prism
#

If wars we top tier, id prob not have any doubt - id go war. Which prob means I’m leaning war i guess but ye we’ll see. I think arms is p fun. But i do hope for fury to be at least competitive with arms for s3

#

I dont care about being meta, but I’m def gonna play the stronger of arms/fury

shadow ibex
#

i bet at some key lvl shit dies so fast BS will probably be more overall

#

very low key i mean

fathom wraith
#

sorry for what i assume is yet another question, what enchant people playing, cant find any pinned comments

#

raid/m+ - hybrid

fast wedge
# warped prism Yeah for sure. I just guess the 2 dps specs is nice for keeping things fresh. To...

I am giving war a trial run before S3. I am 3k SP this season and often rotate between rogue/priest/monk for M+. i think the idea of war is fun and i am excited to try it. however, i really miss not having spells cheat death, cloak, dispersion, touch of karma and other great utility spells like ring of peace/shroud/mind soothe. if wars arnt tuned to pump, they dont seem to bring a ton except vibes 😦

warped prism
#

Yeah. Reminds me of somthn like ff14. certain classes have low utility but are purposely tuned to pump. But they dont want wars to pump nor do they wanna give utility lmao. I guess arms dam isnt bad but still not crazy

I don’t think warrior is in that terrible of a spot for m+. If you run a god melee comp, let’s say you have monk/sham/feral/rogue. I think it’s arguable that warrior is the best 5th role. In that narrow defined scenario, we’re in good spot 🙂

hollow plover
dim basalt
#

OAB is a good example

hollow plover
#

hm im not so sure about that, you can kinda deduce where ur at based on execute glowing or not

#

if weakaura isnt lighting up and exe is glowing then ur always at 1 stack of SD

#

or am i forgetting about smth

dim basalt
#

What are you saying

#

More often than not you need to refresh jugg on adds while hitting boss and the exe WA is not gonna help you if you don't have SD ready

#

As it does not check for any nearby enemies that are in execute range

#

Same applies to mugzee

Actually impresses me how good the dev has made hekili. Its interactions with the game and how well it reads scenarios is crazy and I don’t believe for a second blizzard will make a rotation helper that’s better

hollow plover

(i think playing wow with training wheels is bad)

shadow ibex
#

probably just draw from it

teal fossil
#

hekili good

shadow ibex
#

im sure somewhere in eula they say we can just take ur shit

#

if not can just put it between then and now

teal fossil
#

you know how it is

sick leaf
#

Hekili is great, particularly when you’ve never played a class, just learning the basic buttons that are inportant to press and some order to them is awesome. But once you get that up to speed, you have to take the training wheels off

hollow plover
#

Imho

teal fossil
#

you never have to

#

you can just get HOF with it

#

and then quit the game

sick leaf
#

Yea, I totally see that. Guess it’s up to the person to actually learn why they’re being told to push buttons

hollow plover
teal fossil
#

you can learn to play the spec through wowhead and still dont know why you would push buttons

Hey guys on arms execute

Is it better to go Execute/ Execute/ Overpower/ Mortal Strike

Or should I do 2 Overpowers for the Mortal Strike buff?

dim basalt

So if it procs you press that, else exe

#

ok makes sense! thank you

spiral coral
#

The gains you can make yourself by doing it manually will never be surpassed by the helper, but, it’s not bad and as long as people - 1. Aren’t dying
2. Doing okay damage
3. And most importantly having fun

Then who cares

ripe igloo
#

Does anyone know roughly how much % wise dps gain is gotten from getting the better helm enchant?

#

as opposed to the minor enchant

sacred zodiac
#

you can just sim lesser vs greater if you add all the enchants with some checkbox somewhere

minor gust

what is there to even sim just get the greater enchant

#

Greater > Lesser

candid pecan

roughly 1%

greater is better than lesser ratge

sharp wyvern
#

any reason why echoing void sims more than gushing wound but ingame gushing wound does more

#

in ST *

teal fossil
#

rng

sharp wyvern
#

so gushing wound is more consistent

teal fossil
#

sims are more consistent than your 1 sample in a game

sharp wyvern

its over multiple bosses

i guess im just realy unlucky

#

its a filler

plucky violet
#

ok thanks

sharp wyvern
#

overpower > slam

#

also OP > everything when tactician procced
(if you care about min maxing that is)

plucky violet

yeah that makes sense! i did read through all of the talents to get an idea of what buffs what. I would like to do as much dps as i can so ill get in the habbit of doing that

plucky violet

i did like 1.4 m dps just clicking random buttons after i read the guide and it all went out of my head lol

iit was much lower lol

tyty

south cypress
#

I’ve seen the basic opener is roar/ava/ss/ravager/wb then stacked demolish but do I lose something if I don’t hit ss and just use the ss I get from blademaster’s torment? Then hit ss when that ends.

teal fossil
#

You rather just press SS and then stack blade master on top of it

south cypress
#

Oh I didn’t know it stacks doesn’t blade master cancel it and give me the stacks instantly?

minor gust
#

press SS before ava for it to stack

south cypress
#

Aah so in order to stack I don’t hit anything with ss before I hit avatar right?

#

Just straight ss avatar

minor gust
#

your opener should be cleave/TC/Roar/SS/Ravager/Ava/WB

south cypress
#

Ya I do cleave/tc forgot to say those. And okay I’ll switch it up and see. I’m doing m+ btw so I was asking about multi target. I was sending ravager last to take as much advantage of merciless bonegrinder I could.

minor gust
#

you can send ravager after WB if you want its a very minor difference

the only correct blasphemite option is the move speed one

most broken stat in the game for any melee dps

calm hollow
#

need more dam, dont need more speed

minor gust
#

speed = damage

calm hollow
#

there is not a single boss in the raid where speed would be an issue

#

in pvp sure

minor gust
#

your thinking to small

calm hollow
#

but my damage big

minor gust
#

the dmg gain from the other gem is nothing.

#

move speed goated stat that lets you greed more damage

#

is skullsplitter not better than 1 point bloodborne on st

#

ill sim it

#

5k worse only

#

kinda surprising

vivid ore
#

is greater void ritual better for pure ST or the other one?

stable fiber
#

and aoe probably

stark cape
#

Anyone know what quest this week rewards the 1/2 spark?

minor gust
stark cape
#

Or I guess another question would be is this a spark or catalyst week.

stable fiber
#

minor gust
vivid ore
#

thanks, ill just stick with void

stable fiber
minor gust
#

woah sims different for everyone NOWAY

stable fiber
#

yeah im aware

minor gust
#

also thats a huge gap

#

god damn

#

I wonder why its so big for you

#

for me they were like this and all pretty even

stable fiber
#

i think its like this cause im big min maxxer for stats

#

so im getting similar value from all of them

#

idk

minor gust
#

I dont feel like that would matter but who knows ive been at the stage of cba min maxing that last 1% that is secondaries.

stable fiber
#

also

#

is it worth it to sweep the mines of mugzee to proc reap

#

im being lead to believe that it increases the chance because bladestorm technically hits them

#

maybe im thinking too much

minor gust
#

Idk if you can proc things off immune mobs im not sure

stable fiber
#

i feel like its a possibility since bladestorm puts the damage increase on them

minor gust
#

If you could I dont see the harm in doing it tho if you dont need the SS

stable fiber
#

yeah

minor gust
#

would be an extremely minimal gain tho but a gain is a gain

stable fiber
#

might not even be a gain anyways

#

using a gcd on sweep doesnt seem worth it

#

maybe on the adds that come down from the ceiling

minor gust
#

your biggest add gain will be the execute boys

#

def worth holding CS for btw if your ranged players arent murdering it before it gets to you

raven rivet
#

is there a certain amount of crit/haste/mastery i should be aiming for on arms?

minor gust
#

no

#

but the new meme is 30/30/30/10 you can go for that if you want

raven rivet
#

memes are fun 🙂

#

i guess im more so wondering, where does the diminishing returns kick in

minor gust
#

something just not worth thinking about because sims will take it into account

#

if you care about min maxing gear more than just equiping higher ilvl and following a guide stat prio you should learn to sim

grand idol
#

30 or 35%, I can never remember which.

stable fiber
#

would shoot up like 500k dps

#

but i think i need to send cds as i get them because of lust timing

#

we are pushing boss HELLA fast

#

like hes 45% at 3 minutes

#

gonna be a weird one to parse

minor gust
#

yeah it all depends on your raid

obtuse terrace
#

does arms warrior mortal strike reduce healing after a duel in Xav fight in ToP because i swear it didn't return me to full hp when it ended

stable fiber
#

it does the same for the adds after last boss in cinderbrew

so i assume it does the same in ToP

hello. ive been learning arms warrior and playing with slayer. I noticed a lot of high end m+ slayers dont take cleave? anyone know why?

hollow plover
strange pine
#

yeah. why you say its shitty?

hollow plover
#

because murlok shows "top slayer m+ player" to be using raid single target builds

#

its completely wrong

#

it scrapes data in a very bad way

strange pine
#

oh wat the heck

hollow plover
#

If you do a key as colossus, then swap specs after the key is over, and then log out

#

it will count it as slayer

strange pine
#

ah interesting

hollow plover
#

murlok says critcake is one of the top slayer arms players and he hasnt touched that

strange pine
#

is there a more reliable way to check?

hollow plover
#

logs

#

go through talents there

#

this is for cinderbrew, mainly

#

but u can check other dungeons too

strange pine
#

is there anyway to sort by hero talents

#

every1 playing colossus

strange pine
#

nvm i see it

strange pine
hollow plover
#

but yeah spread the word that murlok has data issues

#

too many people think that we play slayer ST builds in m+

#

i hope they fix it

strange pine
#

yeah i def will. i thought i was completely missing something integeral about slayer that we didnt need to take cleave. i was like HUH???

#

but yeah looks like my build it good

Hey guys, after playing wow since wrath, for the first time ever I’m playing a warrior. I just had a quick question that I couldn’t find the answer to. How important is it to make sure that thunderous roar or ravager happen inside of warbreaker? Or is it only important to make sure avatar lines up with warbreaker?

you hold ravager for cs

just send roar on cd unless pack is almost dead

isnt it the same as arms situation

#

you lose a lot of ST to take aoe in your tree

olive nest
#

Think they swap one talent to make multi shot cause aimed shot to cleave

#

Idrk though tbh

teal fossil
#

think you need to take a bunch of other garbage to make that cleave worth it

#

also obviously differences in hero talents

#

its like saying arms only needs to take cleave for m+

slow saddle
#

Not only that, its opposite pf bursty🤣

#

Well reap + cleave mby

icy mulch
teal fossil
#

ya

#

but theres still some other talents that primarily buffs their AOE

rough sluice
#

do they call it arms warrior because you hit things with your arms

teal fossil
#

again its like saying arms only needs cleave to have all their AOE

#

when you have to switch to colossus/drop jugg/etc which are all ST losses

#

same thing happens for MM

teal fossil
#

they do drop a lot of ST talents for m+/aoe

#

cant imagine its not significant loss

icy mulch
#

Their ST and AoE is more decided on hero talent choice. They don't lose a lot in base class or marksman tree.

#

Maybe BM or Survival, I haven't played those much.

Also has no value in aoe

low elk

plus it heals so i just figured

hollow plover

prot spec can also loot pacemaker

#

doesnt make pacemaker a tank trinket

shadow ibex

It's just main stat with dmg proc

hollow plover
#

viscera is just a solid single-target trinket

low elk
#

surpisingly it doesnt sim higher than the hero track energy drink

hollow plover

and it will usually outperform pacemaker when u have high crit

shadow ibex
#

They are like variation in diff

teal fossil
#

Dang it heals for 14k

shadow ibex
#

At that close I would stick to pace cuz it does something vs another target

teal fossil
#

That’s 0.01% of tank hp

#

Lmao

shadow ibex
#

It's probably more with in game tooltip

#

Since it should scale wit something

teal fossil
#

Maybe but my point is the damage budget is like 95% of the trinket

shadow ibex
#

Yea just misleading

The healing is essentially flavor

for M+ im wondering if i can drop ravager for Bladestrom on the collosus build ? im fairly new to arms and im not that keen on the ability

so stick to ravager then pretty much

Make macro so its on player

Then its basicly bs for ya

Bladestorm is just massively bad for colossus

warm forum

will there be a damage difference in slayer M+ compared to Collosus and if so how much

minor gust
#

yes colossus is overall better but after the last round of tuning buffs with slayer its not much behind. Last I simmed the build Ive been using was about 4.5% behind in aoe but 2% ahead in ST very much playable in high keys if you wanted.

# shadow ibex Smf falls off in t2

that's not really tier dependent, SMF is very slightly better ST and TG better MT in MoP

But w/ 5.4 design, Arms is prob gonna beat the pants off Fury till SoO anyway

hollow plover
covert drift
#

I've played 2 iterations of mop through private server and with 5.4.8 tuning arms will be S tier specs from the start well into the end of the expansion
Fury can only compete and beat it in some fights with SoO heroic gear

#

Fury mop needs a lot of crit to come online

#

Another S tier will be frost mage but fire will overtake it with 5.4

#

Suv hunter is another S tier at the start but don't scale well into later

smoky kayak
covert drift
smoky kayak
#

who cares

covert drift
#

just saying

smoky kayak
#

"a lot of people" generally don't know their ass from their elbow in this game dracthyr_crylaugh

hollow plover
#

cause a lot of people might not enjoy it despite it being designed well

#

based on balance maybe

covert drift
#

IMo a good design is a spec that is easy to learn and grasp the concept but hard to master

smoky kayak
#

The big thing for Arms is that it has great multitarget throughput, which is basically all you care about early in the expansion. Fury still bursts well on add sets though

#

Arms and Fury both got reworked in 5.4, and while Arms ended up getting pretty well overshadowed by Fury at the time, going into a fresh expansion with that design is going to blast

covert drift
#

I also enjoyed the CS resets

#

But man, come 5.4 it's Aff Lock time

#

Maybe blizz tune it down a bit

#

Idk

smoky kayak
#

well, by today's standards Fury's gear dependency is arguably not designed well

hollow plover
#

something to look forward to

smoky kayak
#

but at the time it was fine, since it was already late in the expansion

covert drift
#

well by today standards every spec should be playable ate pve

#

but for the longest time there was some specs that was the "pvp" spec of the clas

smoky kayak
#

I mean... not entirely true

#

Arms was the "PvP spec of the class" and it was still more than viable in PvE

digital sky
#

Someone have a weak aura to display which stats is buffed with best in slot proc weapon ?

smoky kayak
#

"viable" is a word that has a very broad definition depending on who you ask though, a lot of people confuse it with "optimal" but they really don't mean the same thing

covert drift
#

Arms was good on cata but others like frost mage was kind of a meme

hollow plover
covert drift
#

By playable i mean competitive

smoky kayak
#

Even then, they were a lot more viable than people like to give them credit for

covert drift
#

I think MOP was the start of blizzard trying to make every spec competitive at PvE

digital sky
#

@hollow plover wdym ? i like to know which stats i have buffed

smoky kayak
hollow plover
#

so im kinda wondering

smoky kayak
#

but the real difference is that there's been a huge content shift within the game, largely due to the advent of M+

digital sky
#

@hollow plover nah it's purely cosmetic i just like to know

hollow plover
#

fair fair

covert drift
#

I would love to play pandaland with m+

#

Imagine that

#

Ik some ppl hate m+

#

but it's a reason to log in

smoky kayak
#

before M+, the "AoE specs" weren't highly valued in the majority of PvE, because there was simply no place to use them - raid adds died too quickly and there was no competitive small group content

smoky kayak
#

so ST specs, and occasionally low-target cleave specs, largely reigned surpreme in PvE

hollow plover
#

epic

smoky kayak
#

Yeah they're gonna do something similar to the Wrath and Cata Titan Rune dungeons

#

but it's not really M+

covert drift
#

but still something great

smoky kayak
#

and that does provide a little more room for those multitarget trash specs to shine

covert drift
#

idk if 11.2 sucks i'll stick to pandaland

hollow plover
#

no clue what titan rune dungeons are

but I was referring to the actual content at the time, not classic shenanigans
