Won't miss this current tier bonus that we will be dropping either

latent moss
#

same

neon ocean
#

The s2 bonus

latent moss
#

annoying ahh

shadow ibex
#

so yea it should do more dmg to warrant the amount of set up colossus has

steep osprey
#

They probably make fury set the last one, all their ideas are gone and they have to make up some bullshit

smoky kayak
#

it's like 15-20% of your damage or something in M+, it's pretty good

latent moss
#

execute was just shit

smoky kayak
#

yeah the set was fun to play

steep osprey
#

I agree

smoky kayak
#

and funny enough, that set basically became Slayer - proving that just cause it was a weak set doesn't mean it wasn't a good idea

steep osprey
#

this set is a way better execute set though

minor gust
#

I enjoyed it

latent moss
#

ye fury eating good with this set on st

minor gust
#

Slayer is pretty bis for fury

steep osprey
#

If only Thane is fixed

minor gust
#

great way for it to play

latent moss
#

slayer plays so well

#

with fury

steep osprey
#

I agree

neon ocean
#

I liked the s3 dragonflight set, was also a fun way to spread rend

smoky kayak
smoky kayak
latent moss
#

arms is good but jugg critcake

steep osprey
#

I actually love the slayer set for fury, the rotation is fairly different and exciting

#

but the main issue is rampage prio for me in general

sour forge
#

If only fury could aoe

steep osprey
#

I want rampage to be the highest prio

#

after that execute

minor gust
smoky kayak
#

like 20s bladestorms

steep osprey
#

is PTR down rn?

smoky kayak
#

yep

sour forge
#

They’re busy cooking warrior buffs keks

latent moss
#

man

minor gust
#

if we dont get that jugg change and its a slayer tier for arms im prob just playing fury all tier

latent moss
#

execute on fury fucks now as well

minor gust
#

there might be some colossus angle on 2 of the bosses

olive nest
#

Ptr patch notes delayed because full team is cooking up warrior changes collectively

neon ocean
#

I like both specs so I'm just gonna play whatever is more effective

#

If that's fury then I'm game

smoky kayak
latent moss
smoky kayak
#

Tryin to get a buff, but it's also really ahead in MT, so dracthyr_shrug

minor gust
#

its 2T is prob still really good tho right?

latent moss
#

oh theres a 2t fight

#

if its perma 2t then colo

minor gust
#

the DH boss

latent moss
#

idk havent looked

minor gust
#

3 target mostly 2T perma

olive nest
#

I don’t mind slayer in raid tbh, it’s fairly easy to manage while doing progression

smoky kayak
#

2 target slayer, keep jugg up on both dracthyr_kek_animated

latent moss
#

holy cm generation

#

on 2t

olive nest
#

Colo would be a nice change up though

latent moss
#

i think they said they dont want 1 hero talent to be dominant in all content

smoky kayak
#

they don't, but you know it doesn't always work out that cleanly

minor gust
#

I think colossus raid is cursed because its good in M+

latent moss
#

ye but in the case of arms

minor gust
#

thats why its not a priority to them to make colossus good in raid

olive nest
#

Right now we have a stronger one for each type of content

latent moss
#

they have to explicitly make it good for raid

olive nest
#

Doubt they shift it to heavily

latent moss
#

which they dont want to do i guess

#

cause they want slayer to have a place kinda

#

same with fury

minor gust
#

let Reap proc off WW

#

save Slayer in M+

latent moss
#

ngl i wouldnt wont colo in raid anyway

#

slayer feels better on st

#

minus jugg stuff

olive nest
#

Yes agree

minor gust
#

nah

olive nest
#

Colo for M+ is good

minor gust
#

arms need battlelord

#

so badly

olive nest
#

Slayer for raid is good

smoky kayak
#

personally, I think this tier had a strong paradigm of

  • A generally better in raid, and not too far behind in M+
  • B generally better in M+, and useful on 1-2 raid fights
#

arms and fury both actually had really good gameplay representation this season - Slayer, Colossus, and Thane all saw a lot of play

minor gust
#

yeah overall it was good

latent moss
smoky kayak
#

tuning might have been fucky in some places, but the fact that we actually played all four variants somewhere was really nice

latent moss
#

i really dont need blord

#

as slayer

minor gust
#

its better than most classes and their hero spec diversity

latent moss
#

sd procs perma

#

thane fury is just cinema

#

big hp man

#

sitting in all the shit on stix

smoky kayak
#

crossing fingers they take my suggestions on Thane set, would give it some pretty dope gameplay

latent moss
#

best part about thane is comparing hp

smoky kayak
#
  • Give Ionizing Strikes a 100% chance to proc, in order to eliminate the compound RNG, and tune the damage accordingly.
  • Allow 4p procs to reset the cooldown on Thunder Blast, to give the set more immediate gameplay feedback and allow rare but exciting proc chains.
  • Add +X% Thunder Blast damage to the 4p, raising the overall damage contribution.
rare kite

send at mfe>1

steep osprey
latent moss
smoky kayak
#

So every TBlast triggers Ionizing and Ionizing sometimes triggers a TBlast reset
on proc you Blast -> Blast, if you're lucky you might get streaks where you chain Blast until you need to refresh enrage

steep osprey
#

The fact that Colossus has a huge damage amp on Cleave is making it so much better on aoe along with other things

#

They could nerf that one and buff something else

minor gust
# steep osprey That can be fixed though

of course it can was just more saying its not a priority for them to fix because it has its place in pve content. Its not like Herald of the Sun for ret which is useless in all forms of content

steep osprey
smoky kayak
#

Yeah, you frankly don't want to make Colossus too viable in raid if it's also dominating M+

#

but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be close enough that you wanna use it on some fights

shadow ibex
#

i dont think that's the end of the world really if it is variety

#

my DK places deathbringer in all content and its great cuz DB is fun

smoky kayak
#

its bad if the same one becomes best everywhere

shadow ibex
#

if colossus was best everywhere that's cool

steep osprey
shadow ibex
#

because ive been playing the same slayer build for 2 tiers now

latent moss
shadow ibex
#

and it doesn't look like it will be changing

latent moss
#

demo perma desynced

#

low cm generation

shadow ibex
smoky kayak
latent moss
#

its not tuning

shadow ibex
#

not like BS is up every time

olive nest
#

I do not want to play desyncd spec in raid

latent moss
#

its the fact that it doesnt feel good

olive nest
#

It’s already bad enough to play desyncd spec in M+

latent moss
#

slayer has monster executes

shadow ibex
#

variety is important

latent moss
#

colo needs to waste the entire rage bar for a chance at a monster ms

minor gust
#

The blender

latent moss
steep osprey
#

Spin while you're spinning

minor gust
#

would genuinly give more variety for arms

#

Have colossus be about cleave

#

Slayer is about WW in aoe

smoky kayak
#

again

  • A best in raid, and close-ish in M+
  • B best in M+, and viable for a couple MT-heavy raid fights
#

that's basically what we had this tier, and it was very good variety

shadow ibex
#

ill take anything instead of the current situation that sees both specs slamming the same talents in their respective content

smoky kayak
#

Col still could have had slightly better ST, but it wasn't bad

candid pecan
#

they can easily close the ST gap between Colossus and Slayer by buffing Practices strikes and Arterial bleed wicked (which indirectly will buff AOE too).

steep osprey
#

Was colossus played on a boss this tier?

smoky kayak
shadow ibex
#

saying colossus was played this tier is misleading imo

smoky kayak
minor gust
#

Stix colossus idk was whatever

latent moss
#

playing arms in raid in big 2025

shadow ibex
#

like 90% of arms players probably got to oab after colossus was possible

#

i dont think its even worth mentioning

smoky kayak
steep osprey
#

When did people start saying big and year? lol

#

Why is it big

olive nest
#

Just toss on cleave/Dreadnaught for stix

#

Good enough

shadow ibex
#

i think court was an actual fight where we could say we have a colossus fight in raid

olive nest
#

Stay slayer

shadow ibex
#

because that was at least relevant all tier

smoky kayak
shadow ibex
#

was there an abundence of people playing colossus on heroic?

smoky kayak
#

idk about an abundance, but it definitely saw play

shadow ibex
#

WCL says 0% but

smoky kayak
#

at this point, sure

shadow ibex
#

idk where that go cut off

minor gust
shadow ibex
#

well

steep osprey
#

At least Thane saw play on Stix for fury

shadow ibex
#

at its best it was 5%

latent moss
#

ye but u also have to take into account that fury was just better

shadow ibex
#

so yea i dont think that counts at all

shadow ibex
#

11.1 has 5% of the heroic logs as col

smoky kayak
#

the whole point is ensuring there's a place for both heroes, if you want to play Arms

latent moss
#

not fury

rare kite
latent moss
#

colossus on ovinax

#

(fury)

#

(reap rng simulator)

steep osprey
#

pre nerf fury clueless

latent moss
#

i was perma dead

#

on that fight

minor gust
#

just proc reap on every unhinged cast

#

its that easy

smoky kayak
steep osprey
#

Remember when they just disabled Unhinged Cleave a week before the patch hit

latent moss
shadow ibex
#

you gonna press it anyway cuz ur in WB window

latent moss
#

jumpscare

shadow ibex
#

and its not like it was broken

steep osprey
shadow ibex
#

yo can i get a bop

#

i keep dying to this spider

minor gust
smoky kayak
latent moss
shadow ibex
olive nest
#

I had same problem

shadow ibex
#

it was always the same set too

#

plz just bop me

olive nest
#

They ended up giving me bop on each set

shadow ibex
#

im gonna tank this thing i promise

olive nest
#

Lmao

shadow ibex
#

lmao

smoky kayak
shadow ibex
#

but MS has aoe value

#

in all specs

smoky kayak
#

that doesn't matter

shadow ibex
#

and BS is an MT tool

latent moss
#

bs is a nothing tool ngl

#

anti cc

smoky kayak
#

and they want unhinged to increase its ST value, not (or moreso than) its MT value

shadow ibex
#

if that is their resoning, its fuckin stupid

#

lol

latent moss
shadow ibex
#

its already a MT tool

#

its not like the use case has changed

latent moss
#

i dont think

shadow ibex
#

you aren't gonna be like oh i can sweep this MS i will now change how i use my bladestorm

latent moss
#

cleaving unhinged would make a difference

smoky kayak
#

it wouldn't

latent moss
#

except for colo maybe

#

for cm generation

shadow ibex
#

it made a slight differnece for colossus aoe

latent moss
#

which we had as a bug

shadow ibex
#

burst came out a bit faster

smoky kayak
#

but they've been quite clear about their intent that Unhinged be more of a ST power gain than a MT one

#

and have no desire to change it

shadow ibex
#

yea that's dumb

steep osprey
#

It's still a huge power gain, even on one target

shadow ibex
#

if only that level of care

#

would be taken to the tree as a whole

smoky kayak
#

now... hypothetically if we had more competitive options at the bottom of the tree, that could result in dropping Unhinged from heavy MT builds in order to take something else

e.g. if Dance of Death were something more generic like "Bladestorm does 50% more damage" (kek), it's very possible we would take that instead of Unhinged in M+
or if Fatality were more reliable in M+, etc

latent moss
#

why is it dumb i dont understand

#

our tree is just ass at mt options

#

mbg bloodletting ig

shadow ibex
#

we aren't making an aoe vs MT choice

latent moss
#

yeah cause we dont have a mt choice

shadow ibex
#

trying to say THIS IS AN ST TALENT THIS IS A HOLY PLACE DO NOT CROSS

latent moss
#

if we did we would drop it

#

in aoe content

#

but we dont

shadow ibex
#

its like trying to paint the talent tree as something it isnt

#

just 0 emotional intelligence

steep osprey
#

Spriest has a node that increases shadow crash damage by 300% lmao

#

on PTR

latent moss
#

doesnt it just spread dots

steep osprey
latent moss
#

random ahh buff

shadow ibex
#

like we have aoe "options"

#

that option being storm of swords

#

its just shitty

steep osprey
# latent moss random ahh buff

They made it apply to 6 instead of 8 targets and gave it 2 charges. Still doesn't fix the issue but at least you can apply it to 12 targets immediately now I guess

shadow ibex
#

because we need as many dead talents as possible

#

they are like expedient corruptions purpleface

smoky kayak
# latent moss yeah cause we dont have a mt choice

yep, the bottom part of the tree is pretty ST focused, but more so than that the talents all lean into niches that aren't always useful in all content

  • EP/Jugg doesn't have a lot of value in MT or Colossus in general
  • Fatality doesn't work very well with quickly dying targets
  • Dance of Death has hypothetical funnel value, but doesn't really have a practical use atm
    so Unhinged is just a strong universal choice, regardless of whether it cleaves or not
latent moss
#

i would like to see dance of death as real funnel value talent

shadow ibex
#

how many words can we fit in front of dance of death before we accept its fucked

#

hypthetical funnel value lol

#

when has that ever been relevant

candid pecan
#

what does dance of death even do? keks hold on let me read

latent moss
#

in a fight where adds are dying fast

shadow ibex
#

i swear that's just nosense

#

lol

latent moss
#

and u can keep it up

shadow ibex
#

that's what we mean when we say funnel value?

#

just say that

latent moss
#

thats up to blizzard

shadow ibex
#

last time we had an encounter like that was mythic zul in uldir

#

and i think it was probably the most hated encounter of that tier?

steep osprey
#

There are some fights where dance of death would have worked but I don't think there's been any recent fights like that

#

There's Mannoroth from HFC

#

the imps

shadow ibex
#

lets use the last 10 years

#

cmon

steep osprey
#

lmao

shadow ibex
#

HC is from another life man

steep osprey
#

that is 10 years

#

2016 is HFC

shadow ibex
#

holy fuck i forgot it was two of them

#

i never got a fel drinking horn

steep osprey
#

Yeah it would have been nice in that fight

#

also General Nazgrim if you didn't reset the boss

#

There are like 40 grunts with him

shadow ibex
#

that was just on pull

#

and yyour warlock deleted them

#

i didnt care about parses back then but that fight 10000% 0 all star points

steep osprey
#

lol

#

Yep

shadow ibex
#

1 guy hitting adds

steep osprey
#

Fury's BS on those adds

#

was crazy

shadow ibex
#

and then we got nazgrims ravager

#

and p sure didnt use it at all in wod? idk about legion

#

def not bfa

steep osprey
#

It's interesting how we get abilities from bosses a year after

#

Ravager was from nazgrim

shadow ibex
#

it used to not follow

steep osprey
#

a lot

shadow ibex
steep osprey
#

Idk about WoD

#

You know what's funny

#

we had Ravager, BS and DR in WoD

#

all seperately used

shadow ibex
#

DR was weird for awhile

#

for longest it was like auto critting armor ignoring knock backing

#

like what is this button

#

half second stunning

steep osprey
#

Last row didn't have any chance for fury warriors when they had Reckless Abandon there in legion lol

#

auto pick

#

i mean autopick in talent tree for mop-shadowlands type talent tree is very different from autopick df-tww

steep osprey
#

True

shadow ibex
#

meh i couldnt tell you which feels worse

#

we've been using these slayer talents all expac

#

if its supposed to offer more freedom not quite sure they do

#

Bringing arms to mythic mug tonight, haven't really raided on this character so I haven't bothered to figure out where to pop pots. Can I just macro it with avatar or is there somewhere specific I should pop them?

silk spade
#

don't macro your pot

#

ever

cold knot
#

how come out of curiosity

reef glade
#

better to control when you want it usually especially in circumstances where you’d wanna save it for a later point in the fight (kinda like you’d want to on mugzee)

silk spade
#

well if you are on a boss that has an amp or that you lust at the end for example
the CD usage that you want your pot on, might not be the first that you press after your pot comes back up

reef glade
#

you probably can fit two pots on pull and late into p2 on mugz but think generally if you’re worried about p2 dmg i tend to just pot right on intermission+ lust with all our cds lining up

#

big strongus

cold knot
silk spade
#

if you're progging or struggling I would just save pot for lust

#

but never macro your pot to anything, that's really bad

reef glade
#

Also depending on group dps at this point in the tier with like the most borrowed power possible you might be likely to skip second dirt phase which is about perfectly lining up using pot/lust on your 3 minute cd, and my guild did get to do that this week and our boss died at 5:09

#

So even if I potted on pull (assuming I didnt don’t remember) would have not much time left to use the second one at the end

#

Ofc if u have lower dps or just hold dps for the 4minute ish lust could feasibly pot on pull and make good use of the second for more personal dmg but overall for prog boss killing purposes just holding it for lust usually the best

#

ok I potted lust like a good boy nice

#

Do tend to just fat finger a ton on pull muscle memory

true

#

just have 10 stacks of your tier + 15 stacks of juggernaut + bladestorm with every cs guranteed + all mortal strikes crit !!!!!!

then you can do the same dps as a MM hunter!!!!

not more though

that would be a balancing disaster

(my 659 mm hunter does that same dps on 5 targets as my 685 arms warrior)

slow saddle
#

And by warrior i mean the PLAYERBASE

dim basalt
#

MM is ridiculously overtuned

#

Im surprised they havent patched anything on the ptr yet

slow saddle
#

it is on LIVE as well

#

Burst wise

#

?

#

😄

dim basalt
#

Theyre really strong but not overtuned imo

slow saddle
#

i meeeean

#

if warrior did that

dim basalt
#

Who cares if its only burst

slow saddle
#

what would we be ?

#

NERFED

dim basalt
#

Right now its still nothing to what warrior did in the beginning of S1

#

tbh

slow saddle
#

nah

#

MM is still top ST dmg man

#

on mythic raids

#

st and can burst?

#

but y fights are gettin shorter so their 2m burst gets value i c

#

hm

#

y i dno man season 1 warrior wasnt insane. it could slay small adds

#

ST dmg wasnt great as well

dim basalt
#

Im not saying that theyre bad

#

Im not sure if youre aware how overtuned they are on ptr

#

And its not just MM but also BM

#

Windwalker should be taken with a grain of salt because its hard to tell if theyre exploiting

slow saddle
#

Cries in

#

Warrior

#

😦

storm lark
#

Its gonna be fine. Warrior is never bad

slow saddle
#

but y MM boomie + SP does seem like outlier specs ?

dim basalt
#

Boomie is bugged

#

Hunter + SP are just strong afaik

slow saddle
#

ok but i mean how come arms seems so shit?

#

like is it just the fights?

dim basalt
#

Honestly Im not sure

#

Fights are not really anti arms

#

I tested with my guild but only NM and I was top 3 dps usually

slow saddle
#

so we are sandbagging

#

good

dim basalt
#

I also have no idea how many people are testing warrior to begin with

#

Like Im pretty sure theres not a lot of warrior data

#

Which means we might look a lot worse than we really are

slow saddle
#

well tbh if i was ptr testing and having fun

#

id also choose the OP classes

#

seeing our tier rly doesnt need that much testing?

dim basalt
#

ye

#

Nothing changed at all gameplay wise

slow saddle
#

and we dont play COL anyways

#

sadly

dim basalt
#

Except on council

slow saddle
#

if we did i would totally do some testing just to get used to it

#

ye but every council fight is a meme fight nO?

dim basalt
#

usually yeah

And presuming THANE tier gets somewhat fixxed

we heard how much warriors enjoy execute and gambling for juggernaut stacks so we doubled down on this design philosophy and increased juggernaut stacks by 5 (total of 20) and lowered the duration of the buff by 4 seconds

@storm lark What's your philosophy on stat prio? Seems you're @ 35/25/25/15 Haste Crit/Mastery Vers

Dont really look at distribution, i just do what raidbots says

Do you default patchwerk sim or something special?

stat prio is 40/40/10/10 actually

That's not what Clever's gear looks like, and you can see his dps is high

30/30/30/10

dusk oriole
#

That is much closer to his distribution

teal fossil
#

he changes his gear before he logs out so you cant see his sauce

dusk oriole
#

I'm looking at kill logs

dusk oriole
#

If you change your gear after the kill is done.. does that not save what you're wearing when you got kill?

olive nest
#

Stat distribution is whatever top gear told him is the highest dps based off what he has in his bags

dim basalt
#

Clever used eye on Mug

#

sus

olive nest

To lazy to take it off

#

Same here

teal fossil
#

ya you can have a macro to change your gear right as the pull starts

#

if someone else starts the log

#

you have like 0.1 seconds before you get pulled in combat

#

so you just gear swap

dim basalt
#

So basically impossible because boomkins and mages exist

Who pull at 3 already

We almost never pull at 0 lmao

It’s always 1-2 seconds

do we care about tclap?

at all

during opener

im checking farover's cbm log and his FIRST thunderclap was 45s in

any arms gamer?

thick kelp
#

huh

mortal crag
#

why does farover click tclap like

#

45s into the pull

#

do we just barely click tclap?

BL pull cinderbrew

#

does warbreaker apply rend?

#

am i missing something?

thick kelp
#

no

#

u want rend on all

#

or most

mortal crag
#

does he simply not care about rend?

#

he does 21mil on that pull with no rend

thick kelp
#

Idk

#

is there like legit 0 rends on the dmg breakdown

#

sounds bad to not clap on pull gather

olive nest
#

He was probably more worried about getting his pre stacked collateral off properly or something

#

And forgot to tc until 45 seconds lol

hexed snow
#

I forgor 💀

shadow ibex
#

misplay

#

but doesnt matter cuz its not s3 and bleeds dont hurt

plush smelt
# mortal crag BL pull cinderbrew

Generally a missplay but tclap only applies rend to 5 targets and first pull cinderbrew is very big so not pressing it isnt actually super punishing. Def shouldve pressed it to at least have it on the prio muscle but not the biggest deal ever

mortal crag
#

tryign to see if his opener is correct or not

plush smelt
#

Its farover, its probably correct. Can look at kurim too, i think he has vods

mortal crag
#

it seems he roars, sweeps rava

#

then ava+warb

plush smelt
#

Hmm ive seen like every variation of ava, wb, rava

#

I see some people rava last to maximize cleaves buffed by rava

#

Even tho it wastes a gcd of warb

mortal crag
#

i just followed the wowhead opener

#

roar ava+sweep+warb+rava

plush smelt
#

I generally do warb -> rava on multitarget

mortal crag
#

is the openerj ust not a big deal as long as i maximize warb with demolish?

plush smelt
#

And the inverse on st

mortal crag
#

he does rava>warb on aoe

#

TOP opener

plush smelt
#

Mm

#

Top is weird cause not a big pull

#

Does he do the same for mechagon/cunderbrew?

mortal crag
#

its an almost identical opener on cbm too

#

with no clep

plush smelt
#

Maybe its just a quirk then idk the only sense i can make of it is that hes maximizing warbreaker uptime

#

Which is fine

#

But i think on bigger pulls maximizing cleaves buffed by warb + rava is better but maybe im wrong

mortal crag
#

I DONT KNOW AAAA

plush smelt
#

@ancient scroll sorry for pinging you, but do you have an opinion on this?

shadow ibex
#

no reason not to tclap if u got sweep on a big pull this patch

#

it is bugged and applies to x10 targets

#

i can understand 5 i guess but meh even that i cant imagine its not worth global

plush smelt
#

And even if it isnt like

#

On cinderbrew the prio muscle has to die fast

#

And it def lives for a whole duration of rend

shadow ibex
#

probably just habit atp

#

i think that's more of statement about how bleeds arent a big deal atm

plush smelt
#

True

shadow ibex
#

next patch that would for sure be bad idea tho. 100% on bleeds is a lot of tier power budget u just not using

plush smelt
#

Prob same thing with ravager ava warb vs warb/ava rava

#

The difference is probably relatively minimal enough to not make the biggest difference in the world so long as your general rotation isnt wasteful

#

But idk

#

Im used to warb rava in Mt

shadow ibex
#

i rav before wb cuz the haste makes the buff shorter and muscle memory atp

plush smelt
#

Does it reslly?

#

Wtf is this game

shadow ibex
#

rav duration and thus mbg is affected by haste

#

shorter rav = shorter mbg

plush smelt
#

Really

#

Huh

shadow ibex
#

since it lasts as long as ravager is up

#

and ravager gets shorter with more haste

#

its not a flat duration like the bladestorm MBG where its a buff duration after BS ends

plush smelt
#

Wait thats wild i never thought about that for some reason i figured rava duration was constant

shadow ibex
#

nah nah

#

affected by haste just like BS

#

i think it has twice the duration of BS but irdr

#

its good that it is

#

its just mbg gets affected

#

12 second ravager if it wasnt critcake

plush smelt
#

Actually wild ya ok

#

My peanut brain is expanding a bit

shadow ibex
#

you too are cursed with the knowledge of dumb warrior shit

latent moss
#

but top

ancient scroll
latent moss
#

its only with mbg

ancient scroll
#

you lose a stack of collat by pressing tclap during sweep anyways

#

so you dont wanna tclap during sweep imo

ancient scroll
#

I think its about the same either way

#

I tried WB->Rav earlier in the season and it seemed a bit worse

#

but havent really properly tested it recently

plush smelt
#

Hmm ok

#

Ty btw :)

ancient scroll
#

WB -> Rav does seem logical to me tho, especially on big pulls

plush smelt
#

Someone said the haste from warb speeds up rava tho and therefore reduces your MBG buff

ancient scroll
#

I was thinking too it could make sense to specifically time your avatar press so the sweep you get from it ends right before MBG falls off

#

not sure if worth tho

plush smelt
#

So if thats the case then warb->rava is worse cause you lose MBG uptime and a gcd of warb

plush smelt
ancient scroll
#

depends if you lose a full gcd from wb haste, but you do gain one gcd inside of MBG bc you press it second

jolly goblet
#

which item should i take? Pacemaker trinket? or Jastor diamond ring? both HC

plush smelt
#

Which is kind of big in a big pull

dim basalt
#

The gcd only matters if it is actually Cleave

#

Otherwise WB into Rav is more dps

#

At higher mob counts

plush smelt
#

I think thats p much what we said

dim basalt
#

Didn't read all soz

plush smelt
#

No ur good king

shadow ibex
ancient scroll
#

it doesnt always give 10 bleeds

#

usually its like 6 in my experience lol

#

no idea why

shadow ibex
#

thats true ive seen 7 and shit

#

wont matter in a few weeks when its patched but probably def gonna wanna tclap with 100% bleed dam

ancient scroll
#

yea prob

#

assuming it doesnt get nerfed lol

shadow ibex
#

really just uncap tclap so we dont have to measure if its worth 5 targets sadge

limpid lotus
#

does the AOE opener change when you are using blademasters?

short geyser
#

new to arms and I'm looking at some top m+ logs. Why do guides say to do avatar -> sweep to overwrite sweep duration but top logs do sweep -> avatar? Is it just a fight duration or a target count thing?

smoky kayak
#

if you're talking about using Blademaster's Torment, it doesn't matter - the duration extends so you can do it in either order

#

you might make an argument for the half length GCD on sweep, but it doesn't make any practical difference

short geyser
#

oh understood, thanks. I must have picked up some bad info that avatar first made sweep duration shorter

shadow ibex

It used to end it premature

sometimes it's like that

these dev notes are targetted at changing old tier sets

mostly nerfs

since the old ones where pretty strong

like the MM one in aoe

that's why that one got destroyed

and most of the mage ones

arctic iris
# lean geode I mean demolish is a good change but

Honestly I feel like the change makes it worse

Now you have to be hyper-vigilant to notice if mobs are out of range and if you should close the gap or let the channel finish because it's still hitting someone

#

As opposed to just knowing because the target left range

#

It's like Blizzard got a thirdhand report of "people don't like that Demolish stops dealing damage if the target leaves range" and thought that the channel cancelling was the problem and not the damage stop

rigid ravine
#

I mean I dont think I'd go as far as hyper-vigilant

swift crown
#

There is literally no reason for Demolish to not do damage when target moves out of range

#

ngl

rigid ravine
#

a bit more aware yeah but most of the time its the last hit on my demolish that ends up going out of range so the change is a big W for me

arctic iris
shadow ibex
#

There's no reason it can't be around us there's no reason it has to root it's all stupid

arctic iris
swift crown
#

The last hit not hitting is the same as Demolish wiffing completely

rigid ravine
#

yeah and its giga annoying when it happens

swift crown
#

And then they'll conveniently forget to make Demolish cancel the pull-in for the first intermission of the council boss

arctic iris
#

It should have, like, Eye Beam range once the channel starts

#

So you can outrange it but you'd have to get really far and it wouldn't happen because the tank moved unless they also gripped everything away

severe crag
#

Those are some disappointing ptr notes lol.

olive nest
#

indeed

severe crag
#

Might be a frost DK type of season.

#

I dont think we will ever get a rework 😦

#

Or at least give us like 2 lines of QoL

arctic iris
#

They can't afford to give us a rework, it would take too much time away from poor neglected mages

shadow ibex
#

yea fuck this noise lol

#

slam same talents for 2 years wicked

severe crag
#

Feel like mage has gotten a rework of basically every part of their kit multiple times

shadow ibex
#

cant even get jug removed

#

i love the dev notes on mage

severe crag
#

Im convinced they just have absolutely no idea what to do with Warrior beyond prot lol

shadow ibex
#

we've recieved feedback that frost aoe is cluttered

#

lmao

#

so is the feedback about jug being toxic gameplay just not getting to them

#

no one enjoys it

#

cant even get some talent variety

severe crag
#

Changing Juggernaut and removing the timer on Collateral Damage would do so much for my enjoyment of the class.

arctic iris
#

Look at the spell block "replacement"

severe crag
#

at least they're trying

#

Still think it can be saved.

#

Arms and Fury are just being poked with a stick

#

wondering if anyone is still left playing the class

dim basalt
#

Idk they need to give a proper spell block replacement

#

Even if its just some passive spell block like ppal has

silent valve
#

So basically demolish does not get canceled unless the target tp's away

olive nest
#

ye but can still miss the damage if you dont leap quick enough

severe crag
#

TBH They should just tie Spell Block into SB. Let every new cast of SB give us 1-2 counters that blocks a single spell or something.

shadow ibex
#

its really telling how fuckin outdated this whole class is where they still trying to solve problems from classic

#

that every other class has solutions for
