minor gust

most likely not

latent moss
#

ye also that

celest forge
#

Is 14,000 versatility too much?

latent moss
#

sim it

#

but most likely is ye

#

we dont want vers until we are dring in other stats usually

celest forge
#

Ok thanks

#

Just haven't had any good crit/haste rings so I'm using one with tons of vers

Yet another bug has been found. After the hotfix which removed the double dipping from caustic, caustic spatter damage does not singular focus, removing a fundamental portion of assassination’s funnel. Given we have YET ANOTHER impactful bug, I want to go over the list of important issues as of now. These are not tuning issues directly, they are simply not functioning the way they properly should.

General,
Sudden Demise’s execute simply doesn’t work in open world/delves because of ilvl world scaling,
Twist the knife still causes weird envenom timers when the new envenom is shorter than a previous envenom,
sanguine blades still double dips the spec aura just like caustic did, so it’s actually 36% currently,

Deathstalker,
Fatal Intent is severely undertuned but it also has a chance to fizzle. While it pops at 20%, it stops stacking at 30%, meaning you could just lose it entirely on long fights,
momentum of despair simply does not work after pressing shiv with the 2pc equipped,
singular focus does not work with caustic spatter anymore

#

there are more but cba linking everything

#

i think whispyr made a video on it

#

half the spec is bugged

minor gust
#

oof

#

well guess my rogue buddy is gonna be happy Sub is the only choice now

stable fiber
#

arms actually owns so hard in m+

wind tinsel
#

Did arms get a second 8% buff, or was that just last week's getting listed again?

spiral coral
icy mulch
#

@magic canopy That Arms vault doh. lol

magic canopy
icy mulch
#

Good

magic canopy
#

but wowee alot of crit

icy mulch
#

That thing is cracked

#

My current trinkets for almost everything.

magic canopy
#

god damn you're more geared then me

icy mulch
#

I've had some luck with these vaults

#

Week one was a mythic weapon and now the antenna

minor gust
#

holy

#

mines been avg

#

both have been myth tier

wanton sierra
#

holy cow

grave mulch
#

Damn woke up and no ele and no dev nerfs

#

And no ret nerf

outer forge
#

does ret need to be nerfed? or just deserve to be?

grave mulch
#

Yea so they lock the discord down and cry

#

And not submit a simc

fading vine
#

Shit, Seaforium is still good this season isn't it

queen star
#

yea

fading vine
#

Yeah just got one in my vault. It's that or I grab the hero track gloves, pop my catalyst on it and have 4p

#

But I'll be raiding so I might just take the seaforium

queen star
#

for sure grab seaforium then I'd say, you can grind out the hero track gloves elsewhere 😛

fading vine
#

Yeah that's what I was leaning towards WELP HERE'S TO ANOTHER SEASON OF SEAFORIUM

queen star
#

okayge i never saw one in the vault last season, game insisted on showing me that 2min priory trinket

fading vine
#

These 2min CDs are killing me the 1.5mil ones lined up so well with avatar

#

;-;

queen star
#

yeah

pearl wind
#

i didnt get any 10s week 1 because i was still waffling about which character i wanted to main

#

i bet it would have been a myth weapon 😤

grave mulch
#

Im at the point where vers is looking really attractive

distant urchin
#

Hi there! i did get Mythic wp from Vault , my question is where to invest my 2 sparks , wrist and...?

tribal meteor
#

To all arms enjoyers without skullsplitter ofc, Dreadnaught or Strength of arms ?

main wing
#

Soa since OP isnt buffed by tier

teal fossil
#

They are equally good(bad)

main wing
#

^

shadow ibex
#

Die sks die

pearl wind
#

with demolish anyway, as slayer arms maybe i'd do dreadnaught

teal fossil
#

true feelycrafter

compact geyser
#

hows the overall at end of run looking running sks compared to not running it ?

minor gust
#

your not gonna notice a difference in overall

#

on something like that

balmy kindle
#

Arterial bleeding or foc in m+

charred olive
#

I know arms doesn’t have the best damage profile rn but just popping in wondering how it feels to play

rare kite
charred olive
rare kite
charred olive
#

Sounds like a Cinderella story

spiral coral
#

oh. my. god. I’ve never heard more shit about phys comp than this season

lime ruin
#

I parsed 100 on Soul Hunter and my damage was still ass compared to the rest of the raid

shadow ibex
#

its not a great fight for us

icy mulch
#

Well, don't expect to get a good parse on Soulbinder either. At least if your group's DPS is good enough to ignore second round of breaking canisters.

#

Rank 1 kill time was almost 8 mins, so they cheesed it. lol

halcyon grove
#

fuk fuk

royal steppe
#

chest or trinket

smoky kayak
#

M chest is relatively easy to get, since it drops from the first raid boss

#

depends on how highly you value the trinket - how serious you are about M+

icy mulch
#

and Idol is huge for M+

smoky kayak
royal steppe
#

ty fellas

icy mulch
#

Cause we're just totally skipping second wave of adds.

halcyon grove
# halcyon grove

whats the play here guys for the trink i think im the 3rd in the row wep is good also soon killing 4th mythic boss

shadow ibex
#

i got mythic sac and mythic shoulders

#

idk what to take

#

passed on m sac last week for m weapon

stoic epoch
#

pacemaker or tset shoulders ? Do we even take Pacemaker? atm i have sacbrood and idol

smoky kayak
halcyon grove
#

+1

stoic epoch
#

i dont mythic raid

halcyon grove
#

for m+ is antenna and idol right?

stoic epoch
#

so prolly shoulders?

ionic reef
#

shoulders for sure

smoky kayak
smoky kayak
grim hull
#

f#ck what to get 😐

smoky kayak
#

whatever item you're least likely to see elsewhere

grim hull
#

ring is bis endgame

#

according to ur guide ❤️

#

so prolly ring ;d

smoky kayak
#

bis only matters in the context of having all of those items

grim hull
#

ow i c

#

i never looked in that way

smoky kayak
#

if you don't M raid and didn't craft a weapon, I'd probably go weap

grim hull
#

i crafted a weapon

smoky kayak
#

if you do M raid and expect to kill Forgeweaver anytime soon, and/or you did craft a weapon, then you can probably forgo it

grim hull
#

but i dont raid myth this season

smoky kayak
#

I would definitely run this through sims to see what it says, but if you crafted a weapon you can prob afford to go for chest or ring

grim hull
#

appreciate u bro

#

❤️

stoic epoch
#

@smoky kayak would you rather take the pacemaker or shoulders ? If you dont mythic raid pacemaker is the best m+ trinket passive wise if i see sims right correct?

grim hull
#

trinket for suuuure

smoky kayak
#

generally the best yeah
keep in mind that you'll probably be able to buy it after turbo boost in a few weeks

#

but by then there's a good chance you'll have found some other M shoulders too, so its a bit of a toss up

#

assuming you don't have M trinkets elsewhere, I'd probably go with Pacemaker as a M+ focused player

stoic epoch
#

tyvm

lapis crystal
#

I dont really know what to choose

#

do we have another catalyser this week or the next week

shadow ibex
#

this week is cata week

#

size colossus meta

fading vine
#

This sims higher than hero track seaforium O.o but I'm assuming sac brood or stone idol is better

shadow ibex
#

whatever one sims higher be better

hasty pumice
#

oof thats garbage (already have a weapon)

slow saddle
#

theres a big line for that trinket in raid

#

and weapons drops from bosses which i presume u clear

ancient escarp
#

Is a myth chest or a myth cursed stone idol better? Assuming the other stays at hero

slow saddle
#

guess i want a ring ^_^

pearl wind
lapis crystal
#

Hey i asking myself the first two week i craft bracers and belt for my arms and now i have to wait a lot for crafting a weapon (if i cant get a good one) so it is ok if i upgrade my helmet mythe with my gilded shield ?

balmy kindle
#

Always craft weapon if no M slot

shadow ibex
#

can wait until after your raid for the week is done

#

but really if you have no other use for crests no reason to sit on them

#

you can craft this week since you have not enough sparks

strange perch
#

Can someone send me theri aoe sim as arms I want to compare it to my character

blissful tree
night niche
#

nice with socket as second vault

balmy kindle
#

Holy insane vault 👀

normal cipher
#

I have been a lucky boy and gotten both pacemaker myth track and stone idol hero track in vault.

Unsure which one to take 😅 Idol seems to sim better but it’s hero track so not sure if pacemaker is the better choice?

balmy kindle
#

Would take peacemaker myth since it's passive

dusty summit
#

For sure, hero track you can farm as well

void lily
#

Arms worth having as an alt?

lusty quest
#

no

hoary trail
blissful tree
#

yeah..and i took gloves...

hoary trail
#

didnt had 4P ?

blissful tree
#

sure i have.

#

but hand are chamption track and those trinkets are not that much better compare to my setup.

#

sure, idol for m+, but i mainly have to focus on raid

void lily
midnight mural
lusty quest
#

well its somewhat fun in m+

void lily
#

i love arms just hearing mixed things

lusty quest
#

if you like it you should play it

terse grove
#

hey im studying the AOE priorty of col right now... does thus mean we'd rather go afk then using slam in aoe?

acoustic mulch
#

why do you wanna press slam in aoe? you have Point 9 to 14

terse grove
#

given execute is here in the rotation

#

it means there's a chance you'll run out of 9 to 13

#

so what do u do when u run out of those when things arent in execute range

pearl wind
#

got 3k as arms today 😮‍💨

#

it wasn't easy for me lol

thick kelp
limber cove
#

now after weapon what do we craft next

thick kelp
#

Use your heroic free crest to craft wrists with the nerub patch OR mythic crests to craft Chest/Legs IF you dont already have a better sink for your mythic crests and dont have either of those on ATLEAST hero track

eager sigil
#

rings are also good

limber cove
#

so no belt like i see on some guidde

slow saddle
#

Ok trying to play COL

#

with no crit

#

like 50% uptime on deeper wounds

#

i cannot reccomend :D:D

#

for the life of me i couldnt get MS to crit when needed haha 😄

slow saddle
#

takes effort to hit 3k

pearl wind
latent moss
#

sims always tell me my crit is enough

#

but when i get more i just get bigger overalls

void lily
latent moss
#

very good

pearl wind
#

It slaps

latent moss
#

if packs live u can properly play

pearl wind
#

especially on multitarget

void lily
#

sheesh.

pearl wind
#

the biggest issue I have is forced downtime with RP and stuff

void lily
#

making it hard to choose arms or ret lol

pearl wind
#

starting from 0 stacks

#

slow startup

#

but stuff lives long enough that even if you do no dmg for like 10-15 seconds depending on rng your giga stone idol avatar tempered pot warbreaker demolish into swept cleaves/ms will rocket you to the top dps and your sustain is quite good

#

if your cds line up you have a punchy ST burst too but the sustained ST is not so great

#

and any bosses with forced downtime will own you

#

like last boss of dawn i struggle with

void lily
#

as long as i can compete idc

pearl wind
#

last boss of streets if the rp isnt pre-started

#

you definitely can compete but im not sure i can or will push for like 3500 or anything

void lily
#

ive never pushed 3k lol

pearl wind
#

probably get like +14 resil at most for me

#

maybe 15

void lily
#

my war is 655 lol so i got some gearing to do

pearl wind
#

i just did a 14 dawn in time and grey parsed due to deaths.. arms starts to feel very Soft when casters look at you with kick on cd

#

and i have shadowmeld too

void lily
#

oof. my war is a chonky cow and im kinda sick of seeing it lol

pearl wind
#

shadowmeld seems like really valuable to me

#

if your reflect is on cd or you are late to hitting it on like a channel (priory light elementals) you can just shadowmeld it off

#

reflecting the channel or abyssal blast from minibosses in dawn is excellent

dawn lynx
#

Loving arms in low io. Just started tww last week, consistently #1 every single pull and overall, in raid top 3

#

It blasts once you get your groove going

#

So many cds too I always just sync as many up with ss as possible

stoic epoch
#

what did i miss that Storm bolt is above MS in execute phase? but not mentioned in St prio ?

latent moss
#

its not above ms

#

its castable during bladestrom

#

and since we cant do anything during it we can stormbolt

#

for some miniscule amount of dps

stoic epoch
#

bladestorm isnt selected

latent moss
#

@smoky kayak

#

it should say during bladestorm

stoic epoch
#

that makes sense then

#

i thought i was an idiot all the time in m+

#

for not pressing Storm bolt on ST execute phase

latent moss
#

and thats only as slayer cause slayer can cast during bladestorm

#

but u would never play bladestorm as colo anyway

mint patio
#

few noob questions here as the tooltip is rather ambiguous... 4set for arms, does MS increase the rend/deep wounds on just the target hit by MS or all targets? and is it only the MS after demo that gives this bonus, or anytime MS crits?

pearl wind
#

i dont run bladestorm but if i did i wouldnt cast it during BS unless it was to interrupt a mob that was casting something i either couldn't pummel or it's an ability that isn't technically a spell cast

#

its on cooldown constantly anyway

#

kicks and stops are super key

latent moss
pearl wind
#

raiding? whats that

#

:p

#

i play with battlelord so im basically always fishing for MS reset or resorting to slam i guess i only storm bolt if forced away from the boss

#

cant cast mortal strike in bladestorm 🤔

fresh spire
latent moss
#

(u always take the damage)

thick kelp
latent moss
#

can u prestack

#

still

thick kelp
pearl wind
#

me begging the tank to get a crumb of actual threat on at least 1 guy in the first pull of gambit so i can mortal strike it a few times before its all grouped up

#

🥺

lean wraith
#

guys im a bit confused, i can see that the arms m+ build takes skullspitter, is this just because of the colossus 4set?

grave mulch
#

made this for a meme . some random in a delve

limber cove
lean wraith
#

ahh thats all then, i was just wondering why we dont use in raid in that case, but if its cause of the colossus 4set that makes sense

icy mulch
#

mythic tier or pace, tier will last you longer.

fossil thistle
#

Don’t listen him, they even mentioned transmog is the end game.
Pick what you don’t have collected for appearances

fossil thistle
slow saddle
#

I reckon that means in real life its better without sks

queen star
#

i did get the mace for the mog from normal raid at least, didnt loot anything else from norm/hc 😄

fossil thistle
#

Yea I got range loot hammer too, it’s fun lol

#

I’ll probably replace it with my first mythic weapon though

spiral coral
#

Do m+ bosses not drop titan disc fragments?

#

I just noticed I don’t have any out of 100 and I’ve only done m+’s yesterday lol

#

monkahmm can’t be right

ancient vector
#

nope not from m+. But they changes some stuff recently

spiral coral
#

That’s some buuuuulshit

Ayo guys
The best dung to spam for Hero trinkets are +6 of floodgate and halls, right?
Missing any good trinkets as plus source only?

#

Wanted a on use and a passive

#

With the +6 i meant for the Hero drops
Or was It 8

grave mulch
#

shutdown 🙁

olive nest
#

Arms still try’s to get big collateral cleave in demo rav window yeah?

floral ledge
#

yeah

wooden lava
#

what level is that

spiral coral
#

boss at 4.6% health on echoes - server shut down danderson

#

So close lmao

hasty vault
spiral coral
#

That dungeon isn’t very nice to melee players

mental horizon
#

omg why is arms buttons so bloated, wanting to switch to it cause i dont have 2 good 2 handers for fury

#

but then i see all the spells i need to have...lol

shadow ibex
#

Like 30% over

#

Otherwise idt there's that much mob health in a 10

fossil thistle
#

I agree

shadow ibex
#

Just at a glance I did a 12 last night where that much damage wasn't in the details

fossil thistle
#

I +2 a 10 and all 3 of us did like 6m overall

shadow ibex
#

Yea for someone to do 10mil in a 10 with others doing 6 and 7 you would have to pull like the entire dungeon

fossil thistle
#

Training dummies too

shadow ibex
#

Just isnt that much health pool lol

steep stump
#

what is the hitting pattern of cleave ? Around us ? Cone in front of us ?

fossil thistle
#

It has further reach

#

But I think it’s frontal cone

steep stump
#

wide cone maybe ?

fossil thistle
#

Yea, but not 180°

#

If you’re standing outside of a swirl not in melee range I know cleave can reach

spiral coral
mental horizon
#

yeah when i compare it to fury

#

i have to have cleave, thunderclap, and rend!!!!

fossil thistle
#

Literally has the same amount of buttons

spiral coral
#

And sks

#

And demo

mental horizon
#

no fury has less haha

fossil thistle
#

Remove rend from your bars just use tclap

spiral coral
#

Fury has less 100% and the opener for arms is like a launch code for nukes compared to fury lol

mental horizon
#

oh even in single target? i can just tclap?

fossil thistle
#

Yea

#

The difference is 0.0083761% dps

mental horizon
#

okay that makess things way easier

#

im put off by specs that i can squeeze into what i already have set up lol

spiral coral
#

You should still rend in st

fossil thistle
#

Fake number. But it’s literally like 10k damage less

mental horizon
#

cant*

fossil thistle
mental horizon
#

i know arms does less damage than fury in raids. does it do less in m+ too? or is it about equal

fossil thistle
#

Arms does fine in raid imo

spiral coral
#

Gimmie. Every. Number.

fossil thistle
#

Yea, it’s more dps. But if he’s complains about button bloat you can just remove rend off your bars just

fossil thistle
#

(Meanwhile shamans are doing 1m more dps and parsing green)

teal fossil
mental horizon
#

im still in the figuring out stage

#

this is the first tier i ever play melee anywhere lol

fossil thistle
mental horizon
#

right now im figuring out fury, but demolish seems fun

spiral coral
#

Demo very fun yes

fossil thistle
spiral coral
#

Wait till you get a big dopamine hit from a huge chunky cleave in a dungeon

mental horizon
#

theres weakauras that tell you when to execute and stuff? xD

spiral coral
#

For slayer spec yes

fossil thistle
#

Ish. To optimize juggernaut stacks

mental horizon
#

ah ok, i know fury uses slayer in raids

#

arms does too?

#

or still colossus

spiral coral
#

Same weak aura

fossil thistle
#

Colossus on 2 fights

#

Unless your raid has too much cleave then just slayer everything lol

earnest seal
#

The arms warrior on the heroic pug last night did slayer st for 1st and 6th boss. Rest was colossus. He pumped

fossil thistle
#

Loomithar and dimensius wouldn’t make much sense

#

You can get away with it on most other fights, but salad bar too would be meh, imo

spiral coral
#

Maybe. Actually idk. Ima do both and find out lol.

shadow ibex
#

Colossus doesn't make sense outside of the add fights

#

Dimmi has no aoe so idk why you would send that.

#

Maybe he hit like 4 mobs in the wall with demo but thats like hitting xalatath cc orbs with demolish

silent saddle
#

All I need is the crit ring from dawn, the crit ring and neck from streets, the trinket from halls and the trinket from floodgate and I cannot finally go arms 🤡 ezpz

smoky kayak
#

yeah only thing Colossus is good for in raid is Soul Hunters or add sniping Soulbinder

smoky kayak
# steep stump wide cone maybe ?

it's about a 140-150° angle but it has pretty good range, so as long as the enemies are more or less in front of you, it usually hits

outer forge
#

i've got like 23% versatility right now... drops have been... unlucky

silent saddle
#

My crit is like 20% if I gem/enchant, it's awful

#

I'm just fury until then

i did manage to get hte ring from streets yesterday

No one ever has crit for soleh trinket

i see some warriors on raider io use Warlord's Torment talent instead of Blademaster's Torment for arms m+

#

what do you think about that

smoky kayak
steep stirrup
smoky kayak
#

and I'm fairly certain it uses the same gear as the Fury list, cause it's prioritizing vers/mastery crafts; there are also a few other minor mistakes, like using writhing + duskthread for Arms

But he's also been busy w/ prog and is likely now taking a well deserved break, so it's not unexpected

still fox
#

anntena sim bait? or hc good? or idol better for m+

steep stirrup
#

Do we replace the delve belt with a mythic track belt fully upgraded I assume

it breaks even around 710 socketed for me, but ymmv

zinc yacht
#

HC Antenna or Myth set shoulders?

floral ledge
#

antenna is nerf by 3% so simm it but i think myth shoulder is better, depend of what trinket u already have

zinc yacht
#

Antenna sims around 1.5% higher, both fully upgraded. Currently have mid trinkets: signet and so'leah. I would replace signet

solid patio
#

is arms really low in raids? or are people jsut not using ti?

jade ember
#

Its ST is pretty close to Fury now but Fury is still considered a little better, so people play it more.

#

And Fury gives up a lot less ST to be able to cleave for fights where that matters.

spiral coral
#

Arms is doing well in raid though

jade ember
#

I've always preferred Fury to Arms but I still pay Arms in a few keys with big enough pulls tbf.

spiral coral
#

I've done eco. three fucking times and forgot to talk to the dude to finish the campaign quest danderson

jade ember
glacial rapids
#

Good, if arms isn't your main then keep chasing that dragon with the rest if the fotm. Pepexecute

spiral coral
#

I'll be going to fury soon, feels better in keys above 10+ to me because of the st

jade ember
#

I think that it's fair to play what you like, but I also think it's fair to want to maximize your contribution to the group. Both are reasonable.

shadow ibex
#

Most of us who really like arms are also progging the boss in the raid that low key demands you go fury

shadow ibex
#

That also post here at least

spiral coral
#

ive never done a follower dungeon

#

this should be fun lmfao

#

excited to see this sick ass npc tank

Can drop a toy or go to a dead capital prolly

#

Best capital ever fr fr

spiral coral
#

ima go there after this

shadow ibex
#

It was like 1 room pretty fantastic for a capital city

#

Hearth and portals 10 yards apart

We might not get dif faction caps ever again sadge

It was good until you needed the mission table or to do islands or to do Warfront stuff or

True but still nice to hearth and get right to silithus

Wasn't sure if you had any insight into that, always trying to find improvements to my build

rogue in a 13 got mad i was cleaving boss and adds but not executing/ms boss ST prio

#

eco dome first boss mind you

shadow ibex
#

as colossus you'd still want to keep MS on cd there for sure

smoky kayak
#

My opinion is that small changes like that tend not to make a huge impact at the end of the day, so there’s some room for preference if you want a little more crit from Warlords or if you want to game out more Collateral

#

Now that I think about it, the implementation of Collateral Damage did just get reworked, so that may have swung a little more towards Warlords

fresh spire
#

i simmed myself with both earlier and Torment was still ahead on 5 targets by like 2%

soft gust
#

Are you running arterial or one against many

fresh spire

Warlord's is simming .4% higher in 5 target for me monkahmm

Its gotta be a stats thing

The variant is with blademaster's

#

I have hero track idol and myth track pacemaker so my crit on pull is much higher

#

than listed

#

ok ok i wasn't simming with lust, with lust the blademaster's build pulls ahead .8%

#

Alright so with haste buffs (PI, bloodlust), blademaster's seems to pull ahead. you base haste is a good bit higher than mine so that's probably where the difference is 👍

Ok one last build question, swapping EB -> SKS (heinous ik) sims as a dps gain in ST and 5-target, with a negligible loss (.2%) in 10-target. Wondering if thats the case for anybody else

#

Swapping battlelord->sks does even better than that actually

as Arms do I sim Hectic add cleave or dungeon slice?

Can I just direclty drop the link or should I use the share report URL thing

#

but can do mb

olive nest
#

Just send it

#

Raidbots links are accepted

minor gust
#

Just send link

#

But also don't need to think to hard about swapping talents for arms. A lot of it tends to be pretty minor between each other. And a lot of your choices come down to personal pref

minor gust
#

Wether you like playing with that talent or in a real situation not simmed something plays better

soft gust
#

M+ variant is EB -> SKS, M+ variant 2 is BL -> SKS

slow saddle
#

Arms st pure depression

soft gust
#

not simmed with lust, I play with a resto shaman so i just have battle shout, consumes, and skyfury in my sim

slow saddle
#

What about strength of arms instead of sks

soft gust
#

SOA seems to sim worse in generall for me than sks

#

but I can run it rq

slow saddle
#

Ofc

soft gust
#

actually I take dn anyways so it wouldn't be a trade off there

slow saddle
#

And running sks requires 1 extra key pushed at the right time

#

Dont take dn though

#

We dont op that much in aoe

#

And u want ms procs to keep up 4p

soft gust
#

I think its ending up gaining value here because less MS resets means more OP

#

in aoe

slow saddle
#

Less ms means tiernfalls of

soft gust
#

True

slow saddle
#

Then dmg skydives

#

Talkin from a guy that just did an arms key with low crit

#

😅

#

And st id sim like 3m

minor gust
# soft gust M+ variant is EB -> SKS, M+ variant 2 is BL -> SKS

These are all minor at the end of the day. Personally I would never drop Blord as Colossus. And idk how sim apl handles EP for Colossus but reality is with EP Colossus is you don't have the rage to sustain EP rotation so exe ends up just being a slam replacement which EP doesn't like

slow saddle
#

Y ep is a waste

soft gust
#

I dont take EP

#

rage starving sucks

minor gust
#

Oh mb read EB as EP

soft gust
#

variants 1 and 2 gain in both ST and AOE, 4 and 5 see larger ST gain for small aoe loss

#

and again this may just be cause my stats so monkahmm

soft gust
#

and playing sks over BL or EB probably reduces the odds of rage starving cause both those talents increase your avg rage consumption while sks improves generation a bit

#

idk, I've been blasting some 11s waiting for my buddies to want to push so I'll test it out

minor gust
#

Feel free to play around but Blord I wouldn't drop

slow saddle
#

Keep in mind

#

We ms for demo

soft gust
#

yeah ik

slow saddle
#

So loosin any ms reset prob not qol

#

Buy what ever u wanna play u can❤️, as said b4 matters more that u enjoymit

minor gust
#

EB and Blord is there to maintain sync in ST

#

AOE is not a problem cuz cleave

#

And Blord is also just a good ST talent

pearl wind
#

battlelord is great for ST I'd be sitting around twiddling my thumbs without them mortal strikes

#

with that an exhilarating blows sometimes i can just mortal strike like crazy

#

its hard to resist the urge to just send 5 MS in a row but it probably is best to MS -> OP -> MS -> OP -> MS

minor gust
#

Cleave EB resets are giga too in cds

shadow ibex
#

and when resets arent enough

#

blademaster for no CD on cleave

shadow ibex
pearl wind
shadow ibex
#

and yea as colossus you mash MS until you cant anymore

pearl wind
#

that's what i've been doin

#

i figure gambling for another free MS is better than juicing OP stack

well it's not free, you can end up rage starved if you get too many resets

"Haste 50.70

in the AOE Build for Arms warrior when do u prio MS and when Cleave ? in regards to Swiping strike and number of targets

in 3 target + keep them both on CD

outer forge

if i didn't have my regular key group i wouldn't even play the game I don't think

minor gust

you can remove sweeping strikes out of the equation.
3 Targets Cleave > MS > OP
2 Targets MS > OP > cleave
1 Target MS > OP > Slam/exe

i think i need a regular key group at this point for 14+ i am too soft without externals sometimes

and you should know when you are about to be casted on

once u start doing higher keys

like if i'm forced to yeet reflect on something kickable because mine is on cd and nobody else kicks it and then the miniboss in dawn rips an abyssal blast on me

latent moss

unless u wall them

no one can live them

minor gust

so you can reflect or dstance

pearl wind

and i only get dbts every 90s

minor gust

Dstance

pearl wind
#

i dstance often too

minor gust
#

you should not feel squishy as arms especially in a 14

latent moss

as i said kickable spells should get kicked

minor gust

if you are theres some issues going on with defensive usage

latent moss

on high keys no one lives them

pearl wind

yeah this ^

light sentinel
#

What AOE abilities do you use?

pearl wind
#

if i get Bolted in the 14 without reflect or dbts im vaped

#

dstance shaves a lil off the top but still if im not topped it's probably death

latent moss
#

as colossus?

minor gust
#

not in a 14 no

latent moss
#

colo shouldnt be dying in a 14

#

i can see slayer dying to castsa

pearl wind

yes i'm colossus but again i think it just comes down to things not getting kicked

latent moss

but colo is a lot tankier

bolts arent gonna one shot you till 17s

Arbitrarily holding yourself to a specific number when every key is so different probably doesn't do much with differences in pull sizes, how hard your other DPS pump, etc. Just focus on improving and you will.

Demolish should only be used at 10 stacks right?

fresh spire

after the pull yes

#

on pull send it when MS is on cd

#

in keys on aoe you stack it up faster from sweep+ms/cleaves

#

so you want to send that at 10 stacks on aoe

light sentinel

gotcha

#

and ST just send it at 10?

After pull it always will have 10 stacks from natural rotation

Hi, maybe its somewhere written already and I overlooked it but what would be the best options to sim for m+, mostly in context of what trinkets to use that I have?

calm isle
#

Is the best way to sim my stat weights just to change one piece of gear at a time with diff stat prios? Learning how to sim better rn

sacred zodiac
#

what does a stat weight tell you that top gears and droptimizers don't tell you better with less effort

calm isle
#

That's fair. So if I want to optimize stats, just kinda roll one piece of gear in with diff enchants/gems etc and see where it gets me?

#

Sorry if these questions seem dumb, just trying to learn the rops of simming for optimization

sacred zodiac
#

idk i dont think thats how you really play the game? most of the time you're wearing all your highest ilvl gear and then you can just droptimizer/top gear if you have equal ilvl sidegrades
