slow saddle
#

So? Requires sd procs galore

#

šŸ˜…

calm hollow
#

new set

slow saddle
#

How much is a maxxed jugger

calm hollow
#

we have plenty of procs

slow saddle
#

Maxxed is 45?

#

Or 35

calm hollow
#

yea

candid pecan
#

45% yes

calm hollow
#

3% 15 stack

slow saddle
#

Y so 25% is huge nerf

calm hollow
#

nah, for 65% of the fight, doing 25% more is decent, and u dont have to rely on rng stacks

#

but i would take more

slow saddle
#

If we arent to loose dmg

#

It prob needs 35% at meast

calm hollow
#

i would say that would be too much

slow saddle
#

Noway. Its a 10% loss

calm hollow
#

since jugger is a damage amp, and you get 35% without drawback or buildup

#

no way that wouldnt be op

slow saddle
#

In the 35% part where we have 80% of our exe clicks??

minor gust
#

25% is a good number for perma uptime

slow saddle
#

So 35% it is

#

Then we are ahead of fury?

calm hollow
#

35% is getting nerfed after 2 weeks number

minor gust
#

35% would be too much

#

theres a talent that would replace jugg

#

that u have to consider

slow saddle
#

True

#

They prob gonna split battlelord

#

Into another 2 parts

#

🤣

minor gust
#

sad but true

calm hollow
#

they probably wont do shit

#

tbh

minor gust
#

if they did it once they will do it again

slow saddle
#

But slayer arms without juggernaut...

minor gust
#

disgusting dev behavior tbh

slow saddle
#

Would fuck gameplay wise

#

Juggernaut is 100% only frustration

calm hollow
#

i would do anything, to send exe procs when they happen, without managing stacks

minor gust
#

here we cant do our job and come up with something so were gonna split this talent in half to replace improved slam

shadow ibex
#

HERE'S THIS TALENT SO I CAN KEEP MY JOB

#

straight up 0 apperance on ptr

#

we woke up one day and it existed

minor gust
#

I rather get anothert spiteful serenity than a current existing talent get cut in half

shadow ibex
#

some clown just needed a slide to put in a power point

#

here i made this

minor gust
#

id take that trade any day

slow saddle
#

Hear me out warrior have weak cds

#

Lets cut em in half

#

And make em last longer

#

Or am which does the same?

#

But no downside

shadow ibex
#

warbringer devs

#

dont know war talents

slow saddle
#

Truuue

minor gust
#

what a great choice node

#

choose between 2 talents that do the same thing

shadow ibex
slow saddle
#

At least cs // wb makes senwe

shadow ibex
#

its emberassing

#

its literally the same thing

minor gust
#

gotta hit em with the great

shadow ibex
#

idk how they havent been laughed at in an interview

minor gust
#

is what it is

shadow ibex
#

just ask ion to explain it

slow saddle
#

M8

#

Who asks bout war

shadow ibex
#

just unrelated hey man can you explain these two talents

slow saddle
#

They are all hunters mages and paladibs

#

Mby druid

grim oasis
#

spec on life support, dev doesn't care, tale of majority of specs in the game that arent shaman/paladin/mage/hunter

#

nah druid is cooked

charred brook
#

For sure we get tuning late tonight or early tomorrow right

minor gust
#

there will be a tuning post yeah

#

will we be apart of it

#

šŸ”®

candid pecan
#

maybe... maybe not

stiff turtle
#

only because they are fixing the bug

shadow ibex
#

😦

icy mulch
#

At best we get massive aura buffs, a tweak to two or three talents before patch launch.
Worst case, nothing or a minor aura buff.

#

My guess is the nothing option.

grim oasis
candid pecan
#

whenever we get new dev notes, I always scroll slowly... to delay the disappointment

minor gust
#

for perspective this week is around the same time we got these

#

sooooo

normal mason
#

It’s weird how warrior is one of the highest playerbase percentage but doesn’t get much attention

minor gust
#

because like it or hate it warrior has a good functional gameplay. I didnt know how cursed Frost dk was until I tryed it

#

so were low prio

grim oasis
#

new fdk is great

minor gust
#

yeah new FDK feels amazing to play

grim oasis
#

should be the standard for mdps now imo

minor gust
#

they fixed it perfectly like they did with Havoc DH in 11.1

grim oasis
#

big chunky buttons, some off-gcd generators, clear concise rotation

minor gust
#

no longer ignoring half your shit

slow saddle
#

Fdk deffo is good now. And yes arms rly just need small thing

#

I my dream col is gone for m+

#

I heavily dislike the cd after cd things

minor gust
#

Arms does have a similar problem to FDK they ignored Runic power like we ignore rage

#

so I hope rage gets another look at for next expansion

#

should never be the correct option to prio OP over a rage spender when your capped on rage

dreamy sandal
#

Guys, if I am getting around 400k dps from Mystic touch today, how much would I be getting after the 8% buff?

minor gust
#

3% more

normal mason
#

Arms just feels too slow when setting up damage. Like crit just suggested on his stream add skull splitter to colossus smash as a choice node or something so it’s less setup

minor gust
#

your welcome

minor gust
#

I dislike it as well

candid pecan
#

ravager>wb>demolish> 5 seconds left on MBG?? ratge

#

very good

minor gust
#

my favorite is just hava avatar give 10 stacks of CM

#

so you no longer have that need to build stacks for your first demolish

icy mulch
minor gust
#

huh?

icy mulch
#

The "big" buffs we got at the start of s2.

teal fossil
#

bro literally asked a middle school math question its crazy

minor gust
#

I dont think you know whats going on

teal fossil
steep osprey
#

I vote rampage for 20% buff

#

instead of Raging Blow

normal mason
icy mulch
minor gust
#

yeah IK what does that have to do with S1

icy mulch
#

Those buffs where not enough to make up for what happened in S1.

minor gust
#

thats just not true

#

but go off

teal fossil
#

isnt S1 nerfs mostly just uncapped AOE stuff

minor gust
#

yee

#

basically all nerfs to fury that ended up being minor nerfs for arms

#

then arms was buffed massively towards the end of S1

#

thats why arms was pretty good in the later half of S1

teal fossil
#

ya

#

well technically

#

if you wanna get into the knitty gritty

#

any buff to our ST is a nerf to AOE

#

because you are balanced for an end results

#

but thats not what really happened

#

you could argue that a lot of other classes just outpaced us

mortal crag
#

does sweeping strikes get stacked by cleave as well?

#

like, collateral damage

minor gust
#

With FoB talent yes

mortal crag
#

yeah ok

#

cuz of the slam?

#

ty

minor gust
#

yes

#

the slam sweeps

#

not cleave

wind flicker
#

Best thing is to spam slams

#

So u dont consume ur tier by accident

minor gust
wind flicker
#

That way u bring tier and collat n

teal fossil
#

ya

teal fossil
#

someone has to be on the short end

#

just happens more often than not thats warrior

minor gust
#

yee wow is basically a new game every major patch

teal fossil
#

i do agree that warrior tuning is very conservative

minor gust
#

would say for raid were usually tuned pretty well Its rare were ever going into a tier garbage

#

were like middle of the pack 80% of the time

teal fossil
#

ya

south cipher
#

what amount of targets is it worth using cleave?

teal fossil
#

3

minor gust
#

UHM

#

ahktually

#

its 2

#

2T MS > OP > CLEAVE
3T CLEAVE > MS > OP

native obsidian
#

Why do they tune us so carefully and low when we are the coolest RPG archetype

shadow ibex
#

i am idk about you

native obsidian
#

Every RPG needs a big weapon swinging physical battle fighter

plush smelt
#

And every RPG needs a semi-frail staff wielding magic caster

native obsidian
#

Yep

plush smelt
#

Doesnt make your opinion fact

#

Theres also multiple big weapon wielding classes in this game

shadow ibex
#

wizard is synonymous with coward in most languages

plush smelt
#

Any language other than english is fake and made up

#

I say as im bilingual

native obsidian
#

Like if warrior mage or rogue are ever really bad something went wrong

minor gust
native obsidian
#

Those are the classic archetypes people want to play

plush smelt
native obsidian
#

Yeah Paladin is like a subset of warrior

shadow ibex
#

paladin and blackguard are pretty common fantasy classes

native obsidian
#

So it's important but not the absolute classic

plush smelt
#

I mean if you want strong warrior gameplay relative to the rest of the curve

#

Go play classic

slow saddle
#

Not

plush smelt
#

Idk what else to tell ya

slow saddle
#

Classic is horrid

native obsidian
#

Classic is so bad and way too easy

slow saddle
#

Its. Not about number its gameplay atm

native obsidian
#

But it did get the strength of warrior right

slow saddle
#

Nah?

plush smelt
minor gust
#

the man just wants to be op what can he say

native obsidian
#

Like the bwl speed runs with 35 warriors

fading isle
#

probably i'm not going to play this patch as warrior

plush smelt
#

Mom always told me not to engage with the monkeys at the zoo

fading isle
#

like s3 df

plush smelt
#

Shouldve listened

fading isle
#

i'm so bored of this shittttttttttt

slow saddle
fading isle
#

not a single buff since the 20% MS or something

slow saddle
#

We dont need a buff?

#

We need an overhaul, instead of patches of dmg buffs

fading isle
#

probably that

slow saddle
#

We need roar out, juggernaughty out

native obsidian
#

It's way more important for a warrior to feel good and strong in a game rather than some made up thing like evoker

#

Warrior, mage, rogue, this is the dps conceptual foundation

slow saddle
#

Are u a bit high?šŸ¤£šŸ˜…

native obsidian
#

Then the other things are offshoots like, what if a warrior used holy power, or what if a mage used shadow magic

#

What if a rogue was a cat

jade ember
#

Nah warriors are just paladins who forgot how to heal

slow saddle
#

I mean core rpg classes

#

Priest-mage-thief-fighter -paladin

unkempt wren
#

Paladins are just cowardly warriors that need magic to feel powerful

jade ember
#

Bro why so negative, Paladins are Priests who decided to hit the gym, it's a glowup if anything

steep osprey
#

^

unkempt wren
#

Hm, if that's the order of operation, paladins are forgiven. I accept them as they are now

jade ember
#

It's actually lore-accurate when they established the Silver Hand they were all like "we need priests with a little oomf" and took some priests from the first war and trained the up to have martial prowess as well

unkempt wren
#

Pretty neat, never been huge on the pre-wow warcraft lore. Warpriest/paladin/cleric stuff does tend to be pretty interesting in rpg writing though

#

Actually had fun doing warrior priest when Warhammer online was a thing. Fairly pally similar

jade ember
#

Yea the original Death Knights in Warcraft lore were pretty cool too, before they were just champions that Arthas raised. They were originally the souls of dead Orc warlocks that Gul'dan put into the bodies of dead Stormwind knights. That's what Teron Gorefiend from Black Temple was (and why Teron'gor was just an Orc warlock in WoD, hadn't become the DK yet).

shadow ibex

ptr build surely

olive nest

Can’t wait to read all the warrior notes tomorrow!

There’s Fight Club for Warrior Classic

Damn they nerfed colossus again

shadow ibex
#

set nerfs

stable fiber

Ts pmo

#

Icl

#

I just want to play colossus man

dreamy sandal
olive nest
#

It’s actually so cringe bro

#

Warrior just can’t be good

candid pecan
#

its fine... I can raidlog I guess

shadow ibex
candid pecan
grim oasis
candid pecan
#

maybe buff bleeds so you dont have to add 100% amp from tier

#

maybe perhaps

shadow ibex
#

no

candid pecan
#

oh boi cant wait to get back on the PTR

#

test nerfed tier set

shadow ibex
#

many changes to test over the length of this ptr as warrior

#

such as

karmic reef
olive nest
candid pecan
#

no we're not dead... its just annoying

#

holy fuck... its as if they want us to reroll

fresh spire
#

there may be a potential they buff bleeds themselves

#

so kinda why they shot tier

shadow ibex
#

after nerfing them all expac

#

man i cant

candid pecan
fresh spire
#

we haven't had actual tuning yet where we usually do very late into cycles

shadow ibex
#

keep looking for any logic

candid pecan
fresh spire
#

you take them in colossus keks

shadow ibex
fresh spire
#

just cruel strikes really good for slayer

shadow ibex
candid pecan
#

okay fuck IT, there is still time

#

ratge 3 more weeks

fresh spire
#

we might still see tuning this week

shadow ibex
fresh spire
#

as tuning can be done with hotfixes

karmic reef
olive nest
#

Surely they buff our damaging abilities

fresh spire
#

its also a monday, we got the whole week to cope

dreamy sandal
#

Surely we get additional buffs later in the week like wlock and rogue got last week okayge

pastel stag
#

What should I play instead of warrior?

candid pecan
olive nest
#

Warrior

shadow ibex
#

fdk is gonna be good

olive nest
#

Don’t be a fotm nerd

#

Play warrior always because warrior is badass

pastel stag
regal dragon

Short and stubby swap to wizard specs

regal dragon
rare kite
#

you know earlier when i was memeing about 3% aura buff? well i wish it was that now. tho happy about the thane tier change

fresh spire
#

doesnt seem like the bleed nerf was as big as i thought

rare kite
#

hilarious, arms catching strays literally the entire expansion

regal dragon
fresh spire
#

With Wahle 2x BB tech 1vMany was equal to bleeds

fresh spire
#

now its .6 behind

#

barely anything

minor gust
#

really just more tier set changes

fresh spire
#

tiers are still like 20%

#

still op

minor gust
#

they must be really behind if their still just doing tier tuning right now

fresh spire
#

ITEMS
Valorstones are no longer reset upon the start of a new season.

#

we might have got shot

#

but this some goated shit

shadow ibex
#

acually waiting for the week between s2 and s3 to see how we are

fresh spire
#

my concern is that the set bonus was bugged for colossus

shadow ibex
#

and tune around that

fresh spire
#

and they tuned it while being bugged, ofc we know tier is still insane strong

shadow ibex
minor gust
#

Thane fury got a W atleast

shadow ibex
#

i mean the fact thats even a fear

minor gust
#

big tier change

shadow ibex
#

is more a critique on them

#

if yo uare worried they they are tuning it using bug numbers

#

i mean we're just really fucked then lol

#

cuz you can just log in press demo and find that out would take like 3 minutes

fresh spire
#

thane going to be nuts surely in keys

#

100% blast damage is pretty hench

minor gust
#

nuts no

fresh spire
#

waiting to log in to test if tiers nerfed

minor gust
#

but much better yee

fresh spire
#

fixed*

latent moss
fresh spire
#

šŸ‘

#

more curious how the 4p will feel for reap

minor gust
#

might lead into more OP prio for Slayer M+

#

instead of MS

fresh spire
#

cleave op was the prio in general

#

for slayer as you ran DN for aoe dps

minor gust
#

it was prob close with MS cuz rage spend = better BS timing

fresh spire
#

and opportunist made it slap

#

you press execute alot more in aoe for slayer now

#

insane cdr value for bs

unreal mountain
#

hahahahah they NERFED warrior again

#

imagine

fresh spire
#

dont need to imagine

minor gust
unreal mountain
#

thats it, im gonna reroll after 10 years, i cant stand this anymore

minor gust
#

later

fresh spire
#

additional procs from 2p, execute damage on tier makes it pretty solid

#

CDR/MFE goes hard

minor gust
#

even in aoe?

fresh spire
#

think so when i last checked

#

like ti was worth pressing over ms when you had stacks

minor gust
#

my feelycraft still did only at 3mfe stacks

#

or if I have nothing to press

wind flicker
#

@minor gust Where my buffs at bro

#

I feel scammed

minor gust
#

yeah look at mtn thane

#

told you

latent moss
#

raging blow57 is gone

#

JA CLAPPA blast

olive nest
#

Blizz dev seen you pre stacking so they couldn’t give us buffs to compensate for that behavior

spiral coral
#

Fury gonna be good in m+?

minor gust
#

better than it was

sudden fox
#

Target cap so

drifting heart
sudden fox
#

How tf did BM hunter catch a buff lmao

rare kite
vast helm
#

QUIT FOR SURE

rare kite
hexed snow
fresh spire
#

nerfed 2 talents in bm, shot the tier some more and then buffed the hero tree they didnt use right?

sudden fox
#

Ah missed that, offset by ability damage increases

#

Fair

spiral coral
#

they don’t seem too phased lol

sudden fox
#

Nah it was needed

#

Feel like we maybe could have got a bit more but eh

drifting heart
rare kite
#

idk if you're gonna get your wish. not many miguel players out there

floral ledge
#

WTFF IS HAPENNING WITH BLIZZARD

rare kite
#

it's a nerf meant for prot and arms is catching a stray

sour forge
unreal mountain
#

i want to push harder next season, im gona reroll, i heared Frost DK is insane right now?

grim oasis
#

sure

#

Meta won't settle until rwf ends so

#

Don't get attached to anything

sour forge
unreal mountain
#

well ok thats true but still, warrior will be trash compared to other classes so

sour forge
#

Not trash just not meta

minor gust
#

phys comp will most likely continue so warrior will always have a spot

#

as long as its doing good dmg

#

which it is

grave mulch
#

So like people forget that they do tuning after RWF too . If something is incredibly meta there’s a chance it will be nerfed. Being a meta slave is never the play

grim oasis
#

The one thing stopping you from playing arms in m+ rn for phys comp is gonna be the degen gameplay and pre-stacking

#

bshout is too good and it's not like arms does tank damage

unreal mountain
#

i don mind about being invited but the class designe is horrible. I play 19/20 keys and it feels terrible to play as arms. 50% Talents are useless, Fury still got Single Minded Talents, like why?
and then, we literally are the weakes DPS specc with AUG

#

i watched the highest Rio players trying out warrior today on PTR and they allways felt like a noodle compare to others

minor gust
#

Welcome to wow

#

some classes win some dont

unreal mountain
#

we also deal no damage in Season 2 compare to other class, its just Statistics

#

i know

#

thats how it is and thats why i want to reroll and asked for a good Pug Class

wicked badger
#

Thats not true

grim oasis
#

Your gonna reroll a lot then

minor gust
#

your not gonna get an answer to that for awhile

grim oasis
#

Chasing the meta gets exhausting

minor gust
#

literally any can change at anytime

grim oasis
#

Afk until week 12 then decide

wicked badger
#

least of my conceren is the game

unreal mountain
#

@grim oasis thats true.. i play Warrior for like 5 Years now but at some Point you need to try out some new stuff šŸ˜„

grim oasis
#

Sure then do that

#

I played druid for over a decade

vast helm
#

What data did they use to compare with M+ in the PTR raid test?

wicked badger
#

like terrisorisim or cybe electronic warefare?

grim oasis
#

genuinely if you want a class that is almost always meta, it's druid and mage

wicked badger
#

SPeaking of Meta whatever happend to those quests? HTML got em?

hexed saddle
#

what are u talking about man

naive sage
#

It's slayer time clueless

wicked badger
#

not just yet

vast helm
#

we dont want to be Meta, just give us something that we can compare to others.

wicked badger
#

well i read demolish will be soon

#

ssn 3

vast helm
#

to have some fun as a warrior , so much pain right now

wicked badger
#

yeah thought i was gonna game

#

anyways

#

Wp MR, feral

#

ur stuff is so stupid thu

blissful tinsel
#

So glad I came back from a break since SL to the same shit

wicked badger
#

to document

shadow ibex
wicked badger
#

cringe at most

vast helm
#

Playing a game should be fun, not always filled with disappointment and pain.

Weird they nerfed arms

Amazing movies

Unlucky

coming back from SL to this gotta be worst luck chief

Came back to farm mounts for memes now I’m getting memed

jade ember
#

Yeeeeeeaaaaaaa and we have to pick up Skullsplitter again next patch

#

dapain

unreal halo
#

guys

#

i have a real question

#

why the fuck are they nerfing warrior set, like what did they see on ptr or testing to decide nerfing AGAIN the set? were the numbers crazy or what

minor gust
#

its a prot nerf

#

that affects us

jade ember
#

I blame Critcake for streaming earler tbh. He was topping dam in a PTR key when the servers went down.

unreal halo
jade ember
#

I mean Arms has been catching strays all xpac lol

#

One of the downsides of hero talents that I was hoping wouldn't be that bad because it's such an obvious problem that I figured they'd at least try to work around it

steep osprey
#

I wouldn’t worry about this much because there’s easy ways to just tune our aoe abilities

#

Irregardless of the set

plucky mortar
covert drift
#

ngl each tuning coming with only nerfs feels such a kick in the nuts man...

#

wth is this?

steep osprey
#

Most of the tuning we got was for the tier sets

#

All of them actually

dense sphinx
#

aura buff later copium

daring pagoda
#

3% week 4 here we come

covert drift
#

yes, that is my point. where are the buffs to compensate?
the tier is too strong on prot, so just nerf it and let arms and fury even worse and call it a day?

#

i'm not trying to be doomer but it really does seems that blizz don't have ppl working on warrior

#

idk why

#

did they decide the melee dps of this expansion is DK?

minor gust
#

its called be patient try not to think about it

#

it doesnt matter right now

#

once you see the big tuning patch then you can complain

covert drift
#

ok man, if you say so

slim compass
#

lol this guy is just a tier list doomreader

covert drift
#

nah man, i'm not talking just about numbers

#

i'm talking about them at least trying changes

latent moss
#

its tier tuning relax

minor gust
#

I get the feeling trust I know but its ptr cycle and things are still being tuned anything can change anytime once you see the big post the a fuck load of aura buffs and nerfs then its time to complain if things are bad because shits almost ready to ship

#

I wouldnt expect changes tho its to late for that there was none planned for warrior this tier. Its just tuning now

covert drift
#

here's hoping warrior/rogue rework for midnight i guess

#

copium

urban egret
covert drift
#

For arms i think everyone agrees to see juggernaut go and the tree be adjusted to allow warrior to take a bit more of utility
On a more personal note, i think rend and deep wounds should be combined no need to have two separate bleeds. I dislike roar, is just a button to press. I would like SS to be off GCD

#

When it comes to utility, giving a brez or lust. I honestly think prot hold dps warrior back

#

Idk a lot about fury but the hard cap of 5 is just crazy...

latent moss
#

having unique utility changes things

minor gust
#

Utility argument is forever a cope

latent moss
#

^

#

also true

covert drift
#

is not the only point

latent moss
#

buff rally in 5 man content. give us safeguard back

#

and we are good utility wise

minor gust
#

Arms needs talent and rage reworks

latent moss
#

arms needs god

minor gust
#

^

shadow ibex
#

arms needs more than they are willing to do apparently

latent moss
#

tactician jugg rage slam all need changes

#

arms having no real cd as well

gusty nymph
latent moss
#

cs is more of a cd than avatar

#

well its mostly avatar being dogshit

minor gust
#

Torments gutted didnt help ava

shadow ibex
#

dont look at TR dmg

latent moss
#

on st its bad yeah in aoe its good

covert drift
#

anyone else also dislike roar?

latent moss
#

there is just no point in having so many offensive cds

minor gust
#

its an aoe CD that interacts with our bleeds its fine where it is

latent moss
#

cs ava bladestorm/ravager troar/spear demolish

#

not as bad as fury but still

minor gust
#

if they could replace spear with a more ST orientated cd that would be good

shadow ibex
shadow ibex
#

without capstones its straight up just a 90 sec slam

minor gust
covert drift
#

I really, really enjoyed mop arms...

shadow ibex
#

that's the thing its terrible

covert drift
#

something like that would make you choose BS/Ravager/Roar nowadays

shadow ibex
#

it probably shouldnt exist in the class tree if you want it to be good

minor gust
latent moss
#

remove ava and spear from class tree and put some execute shit in there and move it stuff like sd and massacre from spec trees to class tree with some big execute capstone

shadow ibex
latent moss
#

that way all 3 specs have real execute

covert drift
#

I'm not talking if it does damage or it is good or not. I'm talking about a design stand point. Numbers can be tuned around if the skill is gone

minor gust

give arms a real cd in the spec tree

#

fuck avatar

#

genuinely

#

ive never seen a 1:30 that boring

covert drift
#

make avatar a pvp talent and give a new cd for warrior

latent moss
#

idk make it a thane thing only

#

during which u tc is replaced with tblast or something idk

shadow ibex
latent moss
#

avatar is evil

#

especially for fury

#

fury needs to get rid of avatar

#

and buff reck

#

make it a real cd

#

then choose between short cd and very powerful cd

#

with am and ra

latent moss
#

is that u dont even know if its up

minor gust
latent moss
#

without looking at ur buffs

minor gust
#

could easily be condemn

latent moss
#

or EP that works for all 3 specs

#

make it 1 stack for fury

#

theres a lot they could try

minor gust
#

mhmm

#

just will they try at all

latent moss
#

ashen juggernaut would work fine

minor gust
#

most likely not šŸ™‚

latent moss
#

i mean they obviously gave up on spear

#

my bet is that its gone in 12.0

#

no one likes it

shadow ibex
#

i hope the same for roar

latent moss
#

no one ever liked it

shadow ibex
#

i hate this 6 global aoe set up

latent moss
#

except when it was busted with mikanikos

minor gust
#

I think theres no way to fix arms rage issue without a full rework to the spec

latent moss
#

yep

minor gust
#

they tried to fix it going into TWW

latent moss
#

no real spender outside of exe

minor gust
#

but it didnt work at all

shadow ibex
#

whatever they tried in tww

#

was just nonsense

latent moss
#

and during execute without insane sd procs u legit cant keep up

#

i mean it kinda works cause colossus plays blord

shadow ibex
#

nothing was accomplished its actually impressive

covert drift
#

anyone played mop arms ?

latent moss
#

and slayer has giga sd procs

minor gust
#

its the overcapping problem that exists as well

cedar sentinel
#

how's arms looking in PTR?

minor gust
#

that doesnt feel fun

cedar sentinel
#

or warrior in general

shadow ibex
latent moss
#

imo something they should definitely try

shadow ibex
#

as colossus at least

latent moss
#

is to decouple wb and cs

shadow ibex
#

slayer can exe ofc

minor gust
#

should never be a world you press a non rage spender at max rage

shadow ibex
#

once MS is on CD colossus doesnt have a way to spend rage that feels good to press

jade ember
#

It's funny to think how rage is still a problem even after all its gone through. Nothing will be worse than Classic design tho.

minor gust
latent moss
#

decouple wb and cs
keep wb as an aoe cd u talent into
tactician back to cs
gut rage gen
remove jugg

shadow ibex
#

i guess cleave tech

latent moss
latent moss
#

cs slam slam slam

#

wait for tom

#

sks

#

s1 sl was awful as well

#

venthyr s1*

latent moss
#

eb is procing!!! ( cant press ms)

minor gust
#

it needs that perfect middle I dont want to be rage starved to a point im afk no button pressing but I also wanna care about not overcapping rage

shadow ibex
#

they could fix colossus ST feel if they double EB/battlelord proc chance inside CS

latent moss
#

sl arms had that middle ground

minor gust
#

I only played a lil of SL I thought it was a lil too starved

#

I like off gcd or big rage dumps like with DF

#

instead of just having low rage gen

latent moss
#

s2 had globals u held to pool rage

#

s3 with pile on

#

u had infinite tactician

#

so u never had dead globals but u also never capped or starved if played well

#

since df its all gone to shit

jade ember
#

There's always the final iteration of Heroic Strike where it was an off-the-gcd rage dump ecksdee

latent moss
#

ngl ep is kinda the devil

#

forces us into 2x exe -> ms rotation

#

which is 100 rage

#

in 3 globals

minor gust
arctic iris
#

I think they should increase rage generation and increase Slam's rage cost

I think DF S1 was a lot closer to being great than what we have now

gleaming cosmos
#

Anyone have an example PTR build? Was watching Crit earlier and he mentioned we doing more bleed damage so curious if any talent changes because of it.

latent moss
#

df mega capped outside of st

arctic iris
#

I actually liked Ignore Pain as an oGCD rage dump

arctic iris
jade ember
arctic iris
#

They threw the baby out with the bathwater

latent moss
#

but it was
arterial bleeds over one against many
2x bb + sks over soa/dn

gleaming cosmos
#

Oh true I misread the change. didn't see if twas nerfing bleeds.

minor gust
#

bleeds will still prob be the play

#

over OAM

latent moss
#

its weird

#

cause art is better on st and big aoe

#

so prolly art

#

cause its either st or big aoe

latent moss
#

throws rage management out the window completely

#

turns arms into fury lite completely

minor gust
#

imo thats fine

latent moss
#

big gen fast spend

minor gust
#

off gcd is rage management in my eyes

#

but I get what you mean

latent moss
#

not when its braindead

#

like it would be with heroic strike

#

funny how they could just take legion arms

#

and put it in

shadow ibex
#

fury mop was probably only time we ever had that level of rage management in the arms spec i think

minor gust
#

you want more punishment for mistakes in play vs just dont let the bar overcap

shadow ibex
#

like you wanted to go into CS windows with 90+ rage for x3 heroic strikes

#

cuz you could only get 3 off

jade ember
#

Take us back to Cataclym when we had to stance dance to Overpower we deserve it

latent moss
#

ye

shadow ibex
#

i think thats only time we really managed managed managed rage

latent moss
#

#showtooltip Overpower
/cast Battle Stance
/cast Overpower

#

then /cast Berserker stance on every other

jade ember
#

yeeeeeee

latent moss
#

tactical gotta plan ur stuff type shit

shadow ibex
#

frost punishes you for using cds with no resources

#

idt arms has been that case in a long time

minor gust
jade ember
#

A gameplay loop where you're more conservative with rage spending so you can go nutty inside CS would be fun if done well

latent moss
#

idk holding gcds to pool rage was peak in sl s2 for me

minor gust
#

Legion revert one day

latent moss
#

cause it was rewarding

#

u get to unleash mortal strikes

#

but every single ms turbofucked back then

shadow ibex
#

probably gotta turn MS to generator if you want to rework rage

#

if u wanna make it matter players gonna need a swing timer

arctic iris
shadow ibex
#

and they def dont expect players to get swing timer

minor gust
#

swing timer gameplay owns

#

im sorry

latent moss
#

^

shadow ibex
#

yea but not for avg person playing

arctic iris
#

Having an oGCD ability on a 12s cooldown and Storm of Swords was that middle ground.

There were problems with rage gen still, but the foundation was there.

jade ember
#

Make slam reset swings again hell yea

minor gust
#

I like that little nugget of detail

shadow ibex
#

its very obfuscated way to generate resource

jade ember
#

Go ahead and make rage based on white damage again too send it

shadow ibex
#

if u wanna make that the way to generate it + have it matter a lot

latent moss
shadow ibex
#

idk that jsut goes against everything theyve done with making game more approachable

latent moss
#

with sd procs

#

still s3 arms owned

#

worst part about it was getting back to back sd procs in cs in exe

#

unable to build tom

shadow ibex
#

when the SD proc happened mid execute

#

animation

#

lmao

#

oh what a fuckign cursed resource we play with

latent moss
#

the tc part of it

#

would own so hard

#

right now

#

as slayer in aoe

jade ember
#

Prot did just literally lose Spell Block because Blizz thought it was too hard to know how to use, lawd please protect Reflect

shadow ibex
#

now you get slayer strikes instead

latent moss
#

spell block isnt a solution to a design issue with prot tbh

smoky kayak
#

Reflect is fine, even when it doesn’t reflect something it still does dr

latent moss
#

id rather have some other way to mitigate magic damage more often

#

than a 20s immunity

#

which they havent given us tbf

jade ember
#

Yeah I just feel like the "needing to know what you can reflect" argument is similar to the thing Blizz said about Spell Block. I'm being silly, I know. I don't expect it to go anywhere.

latent moss
#

i always hated spell block ngl

#

cause im main dps who plays prot first week or two in m+ usually

#

and i have no clue where to use it

#

and if tank is not playing and im tanking a higher key

#

and i misuse spell block

#

i just explode

shadow ibex
#

idk they arent consistent

jade ember
#

I didn't even think about Prot with the new Thane changes like are they gonna be Thane all the time and super strong in dungos now? I think they were already good on the PTR atm.

shadow ibex
#

prot war also gets destroyed by bleeds

#

how do they not know these things exist in the game they make

latent moss
#

i mean

#

u need a weakness

#

bdk gets oneshot by 4 melees syncing

#

pwar loses 100k hp

shadow ibex
#

thats more a tuning thing for the DK no? or misplay with no resource?

#

im talking like bird boss in AA from DF where prot war just hard punished cuz its a bleed

latent moss
smoky kayak
#

But reflect is more forgiving in several ways - shorter cd, has an effect even when it doesn’t fully ā€œworkā€, and it’s typically not as do-or-die, since the most dangerous abilities typically can’t be reflected anyway

#

Whereas spell block was either invincible or death

jade ember
#

Ya das fair.

sour forge
#

30s magic dmg reduction is still pretty strong for dps

earnest imp
#

i like that MT stonks are rising, since its been underloved this expac

latent moss
#

has it tho

#

pwar played it s1

#

fury in end of s1 and all of s2 in m+

halcyon magnet
#

does opportunist have the highest priority in raid?

latent moss
#

no

halcyon magnet
#

outside of ms and ep stack

earnest imp
#

you see, short term memory dictates that this season is the only one thats remembered haha

latent moss
halcyon magnet
#

in execute do you prio getting 2x ep or using an opportunist proc

latent moss
#

2x ep

halcyon magnet
#

ty

latent moss
#

if u have less than 2 stacks and < 80 rage and opportunist up

#

its technically higher prio

short spear
#

So is arms being nerfed on the ptr solely because of raid?

minor gust
#

no its being nerfed becasue of prot

open ingot
#

Arms is under performing iirc in raid

#

Previous patch

spring ruin
#

Don't worry, plenty of time for tuning ..

short spear
#

So they just hate on warriors in general when even one spec gets too strong

open ingot
#

Yeh its not the reason colossus got nerfed. Prot like others have said

#

Eh i mean if we get anything like last season no reason to complain really

#

All classes within 6% in raid

#

More just m+

short spear
#

Ya I like m+ a lot more

open ingot
#

I mean if warrior is middle of the pack in m+ its a good spot to be considering we contribute a heap with battle shout

#

I will be happy if they fix arms single target dmg

#

Is a bit rough watching it this season compared to other classes

#

In m+

spiral coral
#

I kinda love how this late in the season 10s feel like 4s

#

If you’re in a super geared comp just filling vault

final dove
#

so guys just a real quick question in ST raid - do you prio Overpower when tact procs or always MS

balmy kindle
#

pTR notes deadge

boreal hawk
#

crazy how we got nerfed even more

#

so hyped

sharp tendon
#

Its funny to see warrior nerfed again when they where not great

balmy kindle
#

deadge blizzard seems to like the 2 caster comp in m+

stoic epoch
#

@open ingot well cool if you have battle shout but why bring a warrior when you can just bring a frost dk that prolly brings shitton more dps to your grp that battle shout is a meme and has actually utility

#

Wish I could play Arms the last season but well guess i wont sacrifice everything for a good feeling

hazy flower
#

utility

#

not really though

thick kelp
#

shout is the best melee raidbuff

dense sphinx
#

the fdk would want battleshout if he's the VIP dps

near radish
#

what do you copy over to keep add ons and stuff for ptr is it the retail folder or wtf?

naive sage

worthy mortar
#

at this point i think Borat theory abut brain size is 100% true for blizz devs

quick frost
#

Colossus brothers hear me!

When is it appropriate to use demolish? off CD or hold during thunderous roar for bleed dmg increase etc?

wanton sierra
#

hey our new tier set got nerferd? i thought it was 2 garantee criteed mortal strikes

barren halo
#

Do anyone has ptr slayer arms build talent tree m+

#

🄹

rough dirge
wanton sierra
#

wtf! ive seen varius tier lists across the internet and the hiest ive seen arms is at B (i mean this new season and tier)

wanton sierra
#

under the nerf veil, we stay protected xD

#

oh i see xD it was for protection xD

rare kite
#

yes

wanton sierra
#

maybe arterial bleed value? but that one against many is way too powerfull, solid %

rare kite
#

with this tier nerf i think you no doubt go One against many

wanton sierra
#

ye, our bleeds are not crazy damage right now, even with 80% and sks

rare kite
#

bleed damage is pretty decent, but before this nerf people were debating arterial vs one against many. now i think the debate is dead

tacit crystal
#

in theory bleeds just do more damage with higher target count no?

quasi torrent
#

but thats just a theory

#

a GAME theory

sage badge
#

Arms bleed meta... like in BFA.

short spear
#

i started playing arms after giving up on fury in season 2 dungeons. ive started really enjoying the feeling of hitting packs with demolish crits

sage badge
#

Arms owns.

tacit crystal
lofty pulsar
#

This may be obvious but I hold demolish for a juicy pack right

half vine
#

dont worry, dont worry.............dps warriors are getting true attention in the .5 patch of WoW 2.0. itll finally be our time

lofty pulsar
#

like I save more time for a key blasting 10+ mobs than I do finishing off <5 mobs right? Basic math?

tacit crystal
#

depends hp of mobs

#

you should have it for the start of every pack

#

maybe a 2nd if long enough

lofty pulsar
#

Yeah im still in mid-low keys where half the pulls are baby pulls

teal fossil
tacit crystal
#

just send demolish at 10cm and on cd

#

idk

spiral coral
#

I would personally, just get used to sending cds as they come and just trying to line them up if they're within a couple seconds of each other.

quick frost
#

Well you get bleed dmg increase from not using it right

teal fossil
#

It’s minor

lofty pulsar
#

It’s 10+ so it’s pretty average but there’s no effort I’ve seen to pull big for the most part

spiral coral
#

"Holding them" while learning imo will just end up making you forget lol

tacit crystal
#

i mean to me 17s are low

#

idk

#

just send your shit

spiral coral
#

^

#

send it

tacit crystal
#

if it was a bad press you should try to figure out why and not do it next time

spiral coral
#

holding and pooling are for mages. thinking about what im saving going into combust and what pack is next makes my brain hurt

arms got NERFED AGAIN ?

These are not the tunings are we are looking for ?:D

i wonder how they nerf it, i mean... none of the tier lists of big gamers had arms up high, all i see its midterm or mostly A-

Wouldn’t be a patch without them hamstringing us in some way šŸ’Ŗ

(Please stop using tier lists for info)

stuck ruin
#

That’s good news!

slow saddle
#

Also arms got hit by strays

#

So

jade ember
sour forge
#

How could they compensate without touching prot? Buff cleave?

smoky kayak
#

adjust an Arms specific spell or modifier

minor gust
#

^

#

doenst have to be involved with the tier

smoky kayak
#

or change one of the Colossus modifiers to a diff number for Prot vs Arms

#

there are a lot of ways, just depends on how much effort they wanna put in and how much they want the potential change to affect

sullen stirrup
#

Wish we had the sod / mop devs working retail sadge

slow saddle
#

Tbh less bleed dmg, and pure dmg for col is fine

sour forge
#

It wasn’t that big of a nerf though right? So surely can’t be too hard to tune something else up

smoky kayak
#

it was like -2-5%

slow saddle
#

A lot

jade ember
#

I really don't see how this problem is so bad when it was so obvious from the start. Like hey don't tune things for an entire hero spec if only one of its specs needs tuning. But here we are.

minor gust
#

decent nerf but tuning patch hasnt come out yet so it doesnt matter

smoky kayak
#

not really that significant actually, but doesn't feel that warranted either

minor gust
#

till it matters

smoky kayak
#

WoW Combat and spell data is insanely complex, there are just a whole lot of moving parts

jade ember
#

Just feels like more ways to have a spec catch strays which shouldn't really happen

slow saddle
#

I think issue is they want tiers to be equal

smoky kayak
#

not really, the only difference is they're affecting two specs and one hero instead of two heroes and one spec

slow saddle
#

And tune around it

smoky kayak
#

but yeah, you're overreacting, they're clearly trying to dial in the sets and then they can go back and adjust the spec as needed - it'd be nice if they did it all at the same time, but that's not always effective or even feasible

jade ember
#

Yea that's the thing tho it feels different to have it go across specs, to me at least

#

Maybe I'm too old-brained idk

smoky kayak
#

it's really not any diff in the long run

slow saddle
#

Ofc not they need to c where dps ends up from tiers and tune accordinly

jade ember
#

Its like nerfing Warr's ability to tank and damage vs just tank or sumn idk

smoky kayak
#

I just don't see the reason to get upset about the state of what's still PTR

Now... if they don't go back and adjust, and something just ends up clearly mistuned because they either ran out of time or effort, then sure, lambast them all you want

But as long as it's still PTR, I am completely comfortable with giving them leeway and the benefit of the doubt - this is literally what the PTR is for

minor gust
#

^^^^

#

say it louder

#

so the ppl in the back can hear

jade ember
#

Yea I'm super not bought into any gripes about tuning until PTR is over the cross-role strays is just a thing that's forward on my mind

smoky kayak
#

Sure, same can be said for pretty much everyone in here DogeLaugh

olive nest
#

My spec isn’t absurdly overpowered on the very first ptr build!!! Better riot!!!

slow saddle
#

Yes and no

#

Lambast em for not changing juggernaur

#

Now

smoky kayak
#

well we're a little beyond the first PTR build, but I agree with the sentiment... and people literally were losing their shit over the fact that the first pass on Thane's set bonus was so mid

slow saddle
#

This sd holding shit has to go

smoky kayak
#

tbf the set does help address that

minor gust
#

is it still send at MFE > 1

slow saddle
#

At arms? We send to hold juggernaut yp?

#

And i cant believe they arent willing to change that playstyle

#

I havent heard 1 guy praise juggernaut on slaydr
