ill use dstance a lot more efficiently with this i think and i can put it at a more accessible bind

i hope you dont say that about your tinder matches
not until you meet me
ayyyy

Hi guys, as a couple of tricks, which ones would you recommend betwen araka pacemaker and stone idol? for war arms in m+
for m+ pacemaker + stone idol
Ye we want crit and i cannot lie
Thanks for answering this! ❤️
thanks all ❤️
Frappe Mortelle!
we did it reddit

what do you think about pacemaker vs antenna
i dont have antenna
mood
i have myth pacemaker in my vault and kinda thinking i wanna hold out for antenna
im psure that pacemaker doesnt scale that well with ilvl
yeah doubt you want pacemaker myth
psure hc antenna is better
yup
ofc those stats arent perfect etc and it might look slightly different for you
but yeah
antenna is way better
thinkin ill go for myth chest
yea raidbots puts it at uh 0.1% difference between myth chest and pacemaker
it actually is landing in favor of pacemaker
0.9% increase from baseline for myth chest 1.0% for pacemaker
5 minute 8 target patchwerk
Guys whats your average dps in trash packs?
dose it matter what 2h weapon we craft?
I think it does
Im trying to play and understand Arms but idk if my dps in AoE is good
yea, by a small % apparently
Idk when to use cleave or generate demolish 10stacks faster
lookin at wowhead racial bonuses im not seeing them anymore
am i misreading logs or are top arms parses cancelling bladestorm almost immediately
No
sad
Damn this a tough one cos I play fury in raid and arms in m+
congrats
you guys switching specs to one thing or another in specific keys?
I always just go ST bleed build
but wondering if there's something specific I should be swapping for
bleed build just feelsgoodman
im locked in
sent a key earlier
pretty funny
tbf reap from op is pretty solid in slayer too
But issue is bladestorm-<> Sudden death usage compared to fury
yeh lol
need sims updated
need to check RB>rampage and SD vs rb
as bladestorm is important for next trash pulls
Is slayer cranking or still a pos
I wanna see
Ethical: take sack, go Fury
True Arms believer: take ring and prayge
does anyone else here use the big wigs key portal thing? mine hasnt worked for like 2 days
Sack sims good for arms too, esp ST
do mythic first boss then decide
as not many actually want arcano outside of warrior
Myth shoulders had avoidance

Does anyone know how much of a buff it was for slayer overall
Not too much for arms since the scaling proc rate of overpower isn't as strong as improved whirlwind. We don't have numbers just yet.
in ST it should be 0%
Fights you can get the occasional SS off, its probably gonna be pretty small, my guess would be sub 1%
I was having high hopes that slayer arms would actually work but I guess not
I mean its better than it was last reset now
Cleave>op cycling is strong
Just going to see more reap procs on average from swept overpowers
Secret Loomithar tech
stop fucking charging these
You become this real quick (11s into fight)
Anyone notice that Stone Idol is kinda hard to press? I've found that I have to spam press my keybind when I'm ready to send. I inevitably miss a global or two trying to get it to cast and it's frustrating
It's not macro'd or anything
cool thanks
its on the global cd
Okay gotcha, and you can move while casting right?
yes
Stone idol gave me Ligma at first but I got used to it after a few keys
Use the avatar macro
If you hold down an input in the opposite diretion of them (strafe typically) you can charge them and not die
I do that
probably 4/5 times its fine
but randomly sometimes it just doesn't want to
mythic prog last week was like 5x in a row
Time to up my offerings to RNGsus
why are my arms ST sims so low...
you should link your sim
Oo slayer changes
no wonder it didn't feel as spinny
they aren't
I thought arms had an st issue, it was a skill issue on my part.
colossus has bad ST
how is Arms doing with the recent buffs compared to fury in raid?
its sad how dead undermine is omg
Feel like Undermine/LoU/Driving was such a undertaking that was so half cooked
Making a race mechanic without putting in effort to make wide enough tracks or psychics 
What do I sim for aoe? 5t or 8t?
is it worth using a catalyst charge on a normal piece of gear for 2pc
hmmm
and delves with a map p sure
lucky m loom kill
jugg is so fun love watching a buff tick down
Huge Gratz
Holy big antenna
almost the biggest
imagine it had avoidance lul
btw I still have a 704 nhc idol trinket
🙂
do we perhaps have a bis trinket list somewhere for arms?
try #1237307457382907924 or bloodmallet link in #1237307777677004854
Antenna is good in m+ ? the crit buff easily recovered?
it's good as long as you're not zipping around like speedy gonzales
keep an eye out and make sure you don't outrun your orbs, cause you can end up kiting them till they despawn if you're moving fast
Go with tiershoulders from vault or helm that need catalyst (have to wait for next week in that case)?
Helm is 20k above in sim.
ask yourself whether you're likely to see another helm or shoulders first, and/or if there's anything else you'd rather spend that cata charge on
also how much does the dam matter this week vs next 
Yeah, in the end shoulders are the slot we might wanna go with something ells then tier
hell yeah, that makes sense
ilvl upgrading my arms from 704 to 710 is a loss surely
anyone else think its wild theres still no class tuning even tho RWF was like 2 weeks ago
Hands are +8k compared to trinket but it's easier to find hands than this trinket until turbo boost. Kinda nobrainer right ?
It’s weird yeah but I think the balance so far is relatively ok even though tuning is necessary
for me i got this
its either hands to turn into tier, but i dont have catalyst yet
or one of those 2 trinkets
need to sim when i get back home, but i guess ara is slighly better in st but worse in aoe, while core is right behind ara but better in aoe
is slayer arms with change der better?
I would say gloves r good choice
But those 2 trinkets aren’t amazing for warr but it’s up to u and what u sim
gonna sim, but gloves prob will be on the better side cuz of stats
and that core trinket is ez to get since its first boss
guys i got a myth track belt in my vault and even on 723 it sims much worse than that boring delve belt.. do we just keep the delve belt until midnight or what?
i think crafted belt with crit embelishment is probably better
atleast it says so on wowhead
usually gets replaced ~710 w/ a socket, but if not using a crafted weapon, Arms will eventually use a crafted belt, simply because there aren't many spots left to craft on
oke thank you, i feel like this is onyx annulet all over again.. blizz just cant balance items like that
this cantrip is much better for the fact that you actually will replace it this season
anyone using sks in keys
yeah
if two items sim exactly the same with difference being one has crit the other has mastery
which actually translates into more dps in a real situation
mastery since bleed damage is better when there's downtime or am i fussing over nothing
fussin over nothing
thank you arms number 1 troll
I'm a gambling man so always pick crit
I'm a master baiter so always pick mastery
Ye, prio damage and boss damage
Pretty important for arms, even if it's not a lot
Hey whats better vault bis weapon from eco dome 723 or myth tier gloves to complete set
does it only matter whne you sweeping strikes OP? or does dreadnaught count as an OP hit as well
Sim it
How is Slayer in raid feeling right now? Got decent haste/crit gear from my Prot main
says it right there in the last sentence: the change doesn't affect Arms as much, since it was already prioritizing Overpower, but it does mean you will see more Reaps than you did before when OP is used during Sweeping Strikes
there's no change for single target whatsoever
sims updated now archi?
was it just updating it procs multiple times or was there some small apl change?
Just means more
now in aoe scenarios
is OF good now and worth running or still need more testing?
Anyone that have the trinket, is a Screams Hero trinket better than some other Myth piece from Vault? Thinking that I will eventually get all Myth, but being lucky with Screams could be a rare occasion
Hey guys, would this be considered one of our bis? or should i go for a chest set piece mythic?
I dont raid so dung trinkets are my only option
Would dreadnought be affected by the tier set change?
40% now to spin 
Sorry Slayer fury gets to win arms Slayer still pretty eh
If meat cleaver works as it should it's 80% to spin on fury ?
Rampage rb spam spin 2 win inc
It's 67% Same as BT
Wow that's pretty nasty considering fury has like perma uptime on bladestorm (always maxed stacks of overwhelmed)
hmmm reap buffs? 
with bigger pulls it has better uncapped
yo, got a https://www.wowhead.com/item=238390/soulbreakers-sigil?ilvl=710 option in vault. it is higher on bloodmallet single target list than what I have but is that still the case without the versatility proc?
This blue trinket of item level 600 goes in the "Trinket" slot. It is looted and sold by NPCs. In the Trinkets category. Added in World of Warcraft: The War Within.
onlyfans slayer?
Slayer buffs gave me motivation to do keys today
Timed a 16 and some 15s
Slayer fury fucks hard
is the aoe buff that huge?
Massive for fury
Yo, if i charge into a mob do i do double overpower before mortal strike to buff ir or put mortal strike on cd first?:
just chilling just vibing
also in aoe do i just cleave after charging in and perma keep it on cd whatever else i do?:
Any of the guides in https://discord.com/channels/148872210742771712/1237303208754286715 will help you
you want to min max your cleave and MS cd in their specific scenarios
e.g. a good example is
if you warbreaker to set up demolish, but cleave is up or MS is up
press that first and then demolish
man this set will take ages
week 4 and I got 2 plate drops
i see, thanks
Also is the sudden death conditions that beeps when i need to press execute only for slayer build or should i install it if i play colossus?
its the weakaura that guide recomends
no sd in colossus
worst type of player change my mind
we still like Pacemaker? hero sacbrood and champ pacemaker atm
ya thats very cringe
pay me to time my key
just insta ignore them
not worth it imo
rather go for a mythic set piece
Can DN proc reap the storm with recent change?
no
man playing colossus and not having those meaty executes is a bit sad gonna have to try out slayer
anyone know if sims updated yet?
they are
is it okay to have 2 passive trinkets on arms this raid tier? like ara-kara and arcaocore, or would it be better to swap one of them with cursed idol?
im not sure how good 2 passive trinkets are on arms
shrug I’m not for carries but I don’t see the hate for them. bunch of uber geared people carrying a noob to beat a boss is a tale as long as DnD. Almost baked into the fabric of wow at this point. Idk how they’re hurting anyone or are “the worst.” They could be dog shit and have a carried io, apply to a 16, get accepted and then brick the key - now that would be terrible and hate worthy. And unfortunately most boosted people do this. So, I get your point.
inflates the pushing key pool with players who will likely just brick your keys due to lack of experience
potentially taking spots over people who wouldnt
Last season I only ran into one healer that was boosted that bricked a key and I had a hunch they were. Feel like boosted players are pretty easy to spot.
do you guys hold demolish or send it as it is available?
unless a mob pack is at like <10% HP or if you are in e.g. soulbinder and you know there will be adds soon anyways
just use it
it's a ~20s CD in almost all cases
cool, ty mate
never bcs there is no warrior player in blizzard balance team
Is Colossus Arms in raid cringe or is Slayer the way to go?
colossus aoe fight slayer st
Wich fight styles option choose for sim in MM+ in raidbots ?
I built a physical comp around an arms warrior (Shaman, monk) and dude nuked the key
I think arms is a sleeper pick for sure
dont this spell had cd ? xD
yeee but now we just yell non stop and annoy everyone
I dont Talk about Key Environment xd the colossus Arms is strong when you play around it (like fire Mage used to be) but i want it to be more considirable in raid :/
nerf Frost DK
that is perfect
with slayer "fix" is slayer competitve with colossus?
Sim both of the specs with your current gear for m+ That will give you your answer.
just unsure if raidbots is updated with the fix
I tried in ui-weakauras-addons but nobody responded, hope it's ok I try here, anyway:
Does anyone have a working Spell Reflect WA? The one I found which said it's for S3 doesn't work half the time I'm in M+
https://wago.io/pjl-p3su9 this one.
i use that and it works for everything i've noticed
what isnt it working for?
I just isn't showing up for me
@wispy sail ?
?
hehe
It's solid in MT situations... just not great in ST
hi
how do we feel about arcanocore these days
Another question, this might be a dumb one.
Why is it that Demolish and Warbreaker never line up? I know AM only does CDR on Warbreaker but I'm 99% sure Demolish also gets CDR from somewhere?
Read the colossus talents
Ah I see it, thanks. Is there a way to play to line them up or is it just how it is because one is rage spent and one requires an ability that's sometimes on CD
Sometimes they will happen to line up, but they’re always going to have variable CDs
Just play around it
Ok, thanks for replying! (And thanks for you work on Warrior meta stuff 🙂 )
Np, it’s weird but you quickly learn to just send in most cases
Holding is only important when there’s a fresh pack or the CDs are close naturally - in the case of demolish, it gets enough cdr w/ 4p that its usually close to Warbreaker anyway
So by mistake i went with my slayer st to gambit and i was surprised i did fairly well, is there a chance with a full aoe slayer to outdo colosus?
Hey quick question: is there any interaction with rend or is that just a DoT that does damage (and i guess gets increased slightly by thunderous roar)
Like deep wounds increases all damage dealt
Skull spliter, tier 4 of colosus
But its just more damage tho right? Like not something that impacts your rotation in some way or grants cleave (ie nether tempest was like this for arcane but at least it gave cleave via arcane echo)
it doesnt do anything but dmg
Ok ty
with bloodsurge deepwounds can give rage is the only impact our bleeds can have on your moment to moment gameplay
and thats just DW
@smoky kayak is everything as far as sims updated for arms? i lose 10% dps as slayer lol
Idk I come from mage where a lot of our stuff (except for frost) is meticulously crafted; almost all our abilities feel very impactful and unique and cannot be replaced; none of them just do damage without some cool interaction. It just feels like arms has some basic buttons that do damage and that’s it
yeah
Idk it seems like a pre-rework spec but i’m just not familiar enough with it
Arms has been half cooked since bfa
I mean, every arms button has an interaction beyond dam too 
Whats the rend interaction? (Non damage)
Keep MS and cleave and OP on cd
Rend makes up a good chunk of our aoe dmg so you can say it enables that to function
It's like 10%? For colossus
A tenth of your dmg is a lot of your dam
Triggers Tactician, interacts with SkS
Arms warrior has to be one of the fastest leveling specs i have played.
You haven’t played many specs then
Early game arcane mage is something else
Idk if they nerfed it recently but I can’t imagine they balance leveling content
i have 25 80 Characters and i still say it is one of the strongest
folks, how does arms feel now in M+?
mainly compared to fury
arms pumps some nice aoe. fury is more well rounded tho, does better single target
so we got issues on the ST?
tsch.. oh well, it is what it is
thanks brother in arms
yeah arms is fairly sub par in single target
so depending on group comp it can be better or worse than fury
i haven't had many issues finding pugs for vault keys, but i don't pug anything higher than that usually so can't speak to it
I was thinking more of the 10-14 range
10 you shouldn't have much trouble assuming you've got proper IO and gear to be running them.
sounds good then, thanks mate
Wars have been good this season
that's heartwarming to hear, but you know how wow pugs work. You're not A+ tier or above, you get rejected or something among these lines
also, I have never gotten the chance to say thanks for all your informative guides Archimtiros! 😄
I'm doing 14s and 15s atm as arms no issues at all single target. And aoe we keep up with the best
Phys comp is popular too so getting groups is the best its been in a while
Na, warriors have had really good representation this season
im happy to hear all of this. took a 3-4 days break from warrior and played marksmanship hunter. f**k that class, im coming back home to my arms warrior 😄
A lot of people get rejected from keys and assume it’s specifically b/c of their class, when the reality is there are just a lot of people queuing
btw @smoky kayak nowadays, for M+ we sim on dungeon slice or is there a custom route type of thing?
Sim single target for everything in m+ specc because thinking is dangerous as a warrior player
I reject warriors all the time on my alts
No hard feelings
it's just a shit class
A warrior player would have to be an elite overall player for me to even invite them to anything higher than 13-14
very high usage of pummel and shockwave
especially shockwave (w/ knockup) on important things like the robots in floodgate
there's nothing that it's particularly amazing at
I invite FDKs even tho its playerbase has an average IQ of minnesota winters
because they bring way too much
and deal way too much dmg for how little effort they put in, essentially failing upwards because of their class
a DK doing blue purple damage for their key lvl
could still be reliably doing more dmg than a colarms warrior doing like 97+ for the key lvl
even target selection from the warrior would need to be good
Did you really just write four paragraphs to justify “I’m a meta slave” ? Lol
i am tho
i'm on both sides of the fence
people here have been a bit down about signing up for dozens of keys and getting perma rejected
Really haven’t, not this season
damn bro what u on
i need some of that
i'm 3600 io from last season and barely get invited to 14s
And war participation stats are actually quite decent
dps war?
I mean your entire tirade there was also about 15+ keys, which is far outside the bounds of what 99.9% of the player base do in the first place
The most fundamental and obvious fact of any scaled system like m+ is that it will pyramid more the higher you go
"Bro" do you know who you're arguing with???
Some body who absolutely doesn’t give a shit, lmao
This is warrior life if you can’t handle rejection don’t play warrior
Also warrior fits phys comp better then dk so your argument is only true for non phys comp teams
It’s not about not knowing, it’s just about people’s perception being skewed by their own experience
- if all you do is push keys, ofc you’re going to be more sensitive to meta issues, even if the vast majority of players don’t
So far for 15 invites I got 0 until I cleared 2-3, then I got invited within 5-10 minutes for every key
same shit will happen for my 16s now
cleared 1 16, still no invites, psure once I got 3x 16 I'll get regular invites
And yet there are warriors getting title every tier 
I do think people are less inclined to pick DPS warrior if Prot exists in this state, but at the end they just check if it fits the comp. Arms has really good utility in higher keys with 20s AoE knock up compared to other warrior specs and huge AoE bursts, but if you apply to a comp with DH, Priest and arcane mage
yeah you won't get taken lol
and unless you got like 3.8k last season nobody really gives a fuck from my experience
its just a regular melee kick
supreme utility
Literally seen a pug 10 listed yesterday
“Inviting 3.8k last season only +10 crest farm”
madlad

Hi i search the Colossal Might Stacks weak aura update pls
u found my group
Not something you really need to track, the button will automatically glow at 10
Well, it doesn't shine for me
folks, small question:
in multitarget (3+) do we ever use mortal strike?
i see. thanks!
could someone also please describe, when or rather under what conditions do we SkS?
i should play the lottery with this vault loot
Ty for adding the 3rd part
I get triggered when ppl think rend is irrelevant after pull
Does TC still apply more rends in SS
Luck
When rend is doing like 14% of your dmg in a key it's dumb to not prio TC over OP
I just once at the start of sweeping and at the end and that should maintain by next sweep cast
If pull is big enough that I want to use bug
fury slayer is nasty now godamned reap procs
what about Arms slayer?
is 2 points bloodborne 1 skullsplitter and 0 in the choice between dreadnaught/strength of arms trolling hard or
i mean in raid i play fury
yeah and i feel like skullsplitter doing alot of dps for me
Kek
just simmed better at the time
fair lmaoooo
ima try the nothing in choice node see how it goes
but 10% instead of 5% on bleeds blasts i bet
U always run 2 x bleed
but im a skullsplitter troll so
Its better to drop sks for
I like sendin sls
On any 2 target its not bad
Just remove col dmg
And buff aoe in gen
Col dmg makes u wanna hold stuff
Holding never fun
should I use cleave on ST and TWO TARGET? And so, should I use slam on MT (3+)?
but also doesnt antenna beat pace
antenna op i hear
yeah sim says mythic legs beat pace with aranocore/sacbrood
does mortal strike work on salhadaars selfheal?
No
we dont have a way to deal with the affix this week if we're running lower keys. Do we?
it use to
they however
fixedit
early in the season before rwf guilds got to the boss
What's the affix I haven't done a 10 since first week
That's about it other than that healer affix
does the stealth buff to targets hit also apply to arms overpower as well or is it fury only?
Yes
Hell yeah

Whats that
death
I made an aug and checked but only two specs?
I made an evoker
how are you supposed to get the spark this week again? I thought it was weekly quests
this week it's 3 delves IIRC
just impending victory as soon as it comes out you'll clear most of it and make it easy for the healer to just heal through the rest of the absorb
bitter immunity has a 3 min cd so it's better saved for something real if needed, if you talent it
guys, how do you usually demolish in a warbreaker window, you send it even with less than 10 stacks (like, 8 stacks for example) if that's all you could get before warbreaker ends, or send it only when it has 10 stacks whether in a warbreaker window or not?
Typically should have 10 stacks pretty easy
Hmm, yeah, but it happened to me and I was quite puzzled
I sent it with 8 stacks, was all I could get at that moment
iirc, I CS'ed(warbreaker) while it was on cooldown, so a chunk of the colossus stacks went in cdr of the ability
On openers I'll normally get my Cleave and MS off before I CS so i have 10 in the window
Otherwise most of the time It kinda lines up naturally, I'll send demo if I have to wait 10s for CS though
hm, so you use both cleave and ms in AoE situations in order to gain the stacks?
fair enough
i strayed away from using Both
seems like that's a mistake 😄
i was like 3+ = Cleave, <3 = MS. Not both
thanks brother in arms
You cleave 2t after sending MS with 2 OP esp with SS up as the slam it casts from Ferver of Battle will cleave
good point, I totally forgot about that
(patiently waiting for someone to correct me)
I think i get arms in m+ but can you guys answer me 1 question please ? I don't know if i hold my empowered cleave until i get colossus/Demolish are back up or do i just send it after sweeping ends
practicing at dummies
But feel free to send it without 10 stacks if you’re having trouble lining stuff up/getting your rotation out
Hitting in the wb window and making sure your stuff resyncs right is more important
all good now
really only hold it if you can do it naturally
what do you mean by that ?
if like, the pack ends really soon and you can't really make much of it
no point sending the emp cleave if the fight lasts for about 2-5 more seconds
better keep for the next one
Nope you got it 🔥
Side note, this is a fun example of something called Cunningham’s Law 😂
“the best way to get the right answer on the internet is not to ask a question; it's to post the wrong answer”
Anyone know why my mate has different overall to me on details? 😮
also the best way to get banned on the internet 
Lmfao, it can be used tastefully. Such as: “I should just send Demolish regardless of stacks, right?”
People will crawl out of the woodwork to correct you since they see you’ve assumed the wrong opinion, and want to help get you on the right tracks, compared to “should I send demolish without stacks?”
Words are fun 
(But yes, don’t be an asshole with it)
One of you likely played differently, such as having a slightly different rotation, or one of you held cooldowns when the other sent them
If you have a screenshot we can probably give better insights, but it’s all gonna be speculative. A log would be ideal
This is so true
If I came in here asking about rotation I’d get an answer or two but if I came here saying some crazy shit about the rotation it would be 5+ ppl saying “you’re an idiot what are you talking about” (deservingly so)
Brains are funny and everyone is trying to help 🥰
Void Touched Fragment any good?
Morning! i was just reading the update channel... How much of an increase is this for slayer arms?
very interesting
Is Vessel of Acceleration from TW on the hero track worth trying in M+ if can't get idol/pace maker yet
not much
We’re (arms) playing fury now
It’s so fun lol
yeah na we arent
They just need to buff single target a little for colo and we are good
I’m having a blast with warrior
Spinny fury build very fun
is colossus Demolish a frontal cone attack range? i thought it was a circle range from character..
It is a frontal cone
damn..... now this is a surprise...
pray for colossus buff
is it possible to buff colossus single target without buffing slayer arms as well?! Tier set bonus buff maybe?!
Just buff 
Tier set buff or revert back to 100% would be nice but prot is alr spanking most tanksn
tier buffs yea
Idk
Arms feels strong
Its not meta by any means but like I have still found great success with it
not how it works
the stacks go first
any excess stacks go CDR
the tier changes are kinda insane
the one thing colossus had was a nice aoe lead over fury slayer and could just cope about bad ST
Did I miss something? What tier changes
slayer 4p used to be per cast
now its per target
Oh the hotfix okay
Does dreadnaught count as additional targets for op?
Damn
arms only gets 2 chances
They should change that
im good slurry owns
ngl i dont think there is an argument for arms anymore
Ngl idc abount balance I will still just play arms cause I dont really enjoy fury
colo arms still has bit better uncapped aoe maybe
well colossus is pretty good
And I play slayer in keys because I like execute
but st is legit nothing compared to slayer fury
colossus will do fine its just a why play colossus if slayer fury is better but both feel good in keys
just fury better
Idk slayer arms has been enjoyable and has worked well for me so far
Only up to 13s but still
Slayer is a vibe
I play Colossus Arms in raid because it's what's fun for me
I'm glad it's good in M+
Colossus is a vibe for me in all content
I really liked the no rend slayer build last week for the weekly 10s for vault
Stacking jugg on affix went hard
I play the rend variant for 12+
The fury spinner build still does lesser aoe dmg in big pulls though 
It does however do impressive boss damage
Will still play colossus mostly
Colossus feels real wacky with bad tanks
You can mitigate that by sending shockwave into demolish though if its really bad.
My tank now is like: lemme call out CCs 
I'm not in raid so I can't check this but I just had a thought
Is Second Wind just like, permanently disabled on Dimensius lol
If there's constant raid dmg then yeah second wind wont work
i think the slayer fury hotfix might force me to play fury tbh
even though i don't like it, it was already so good ST now it's blastin aoe
at least colossus arms had big aoe going for it
dont have to aim colossus smash perfectly just raging blow all day
Colo still better for big pulls though, will probably use fury for DB streets
For sure, low target count dungeon too
im gonna practice with it after raid i havent played fury at all this xpac
Nw it's legit just rampage into raging blow 
Press whirlwind for meat cleaver stacks and rinse repeat
I haven't played Fury this season yet
do you even bother about rage capping
I've seen a lot of Fury warriors where they just keep spamming raging blow even though they were rage capped ages ago
Yeah because RB is nasty
Oh well I mean I still like
but I will play fury if it fits the dungeon and comp
Yeah rampage being priority feels better
One of my favourite memories from BFA was having so much haste and rage gen at some point that I was able to press Rampage 7 times back to back
anyone else having issues with Sims not putting reap the storm damage in the quick sim?
check under cleave
Good evening gentlemen, quick question, is the aim for arms to maintain juggernaut the whole fight? Or we sending SD procs pronto?
are we back to ascension and writhing armor banding and what gear are we crafting after weapon?
End-game you do 2x dawnthread, but this early in the season it's fine to do Weapon (ascension) and writhing armor band, then as the season progresses you can replace them later
WoWhead Guide // [Discord Post](#updates-midnight message)
Feels bad to catch mythic weapon from vault after you crafted 2h already
fury time 

you can pre stack might buff
from what i remember thats true
Prepot?
prepot is every spec
And this should be conidered, cheating
In any spec
you know what else is cheating? You can talent Second Wind, untalent it, and keep the buff!
Tell me more
And dk exploits
my buffs are covered by the giant ass talent pane, but there's the tooltip
too bad the buff falls off as soon as you take damage though 
Now would be cool if we get a similar 4p/interaction "fix" for slayer arms while using dreadnaught
no, cause you don't have the talent anymore
what?
its fixxed on arms ?
sweep twice the chance
dreadnaught is not an op. dreadnaught is a sep wave no?
correct, dreadnaught does not trigger it
ey thats cool, fury warrior gets an undocumented change and arms will get nerfed by delve belt nerf

ik everyone will but the crit was pretty huge
But it doesnt really matter. Belt nerf will come with turbo boost so u would replace belt anyway
didn't you say you lose the buff when you take damage
yeah right here
its a bug, just an incredibly unimpactful one
xd
Depending on ones gear I suppose but it seems really easy to hit 22k+ crit this season, I am in DR territory
Anyone tested wrecking throw for eco dome ?
so i have an incredibly dumb question
in weakauras. how do i move like the top like 4-5 buttons above the rage bar/my basic rotation
like i saw critcake do that and im like wow im mindblown
You mean actual buttons eg blizzard ui ones, or the weak aura display eg non buttons?
weakaura display tooltips/buttons
like i want mortal strike overpower and basic stuff on top
Wa doesn't have buttons, it's just ui... But do /wa, then left click the wa package, then drill down to the bits you want to move then just drag the ui elements
Alright I need help choosing a new race for my warrior. Tired of cow on every character lol
do you try Dogs? Little or Big ones?
gnome
That was my first thought. Or worgen
female gnomes with a massive 2hander as big as they are, are just funny to me....especially when they push in your shit in pvp (but i very very rarely do that)
Most dangerous ant charging your ass lol

Better damage for higher targets
Yea if u turn off details
Sd is a little clunky
Make sd proc reap 
Giving them set ideas for next S1 huh
anyone using dctorio wa
Real
I envy how fury is just spam rb 
Can't deny it's pretty good though
please blizz don't nerf
Does sweeping strike 2nd target helps proc slayer strike?
Real
ye overpower also got the interaction but 1 extra target on a less pressed button isnt as strong as for fury RB spam
it doesnt apply to cleave since its just overpower on the 4set
should be cleave/ms for arms instead u cant change my mind 
yes
hi praetorus
was normal reap the storm on cleave 20% per cast before or 20% per target
hi bolvar
just did an arms slayer key and felt like reap is way higher than before so maybe it was also changed?
The 20% chance feels too low at times lol
Maybe just good rng?
They should make cleave increase the chance per every 3 target
theres a lot of things they should do to arms 
ok like
no joke
its proccing on every cleave on 5 targets
mind its the 100% dmg one not 150% from tier set tho
I feel like when its a big pull, im focusing more in spamming cleave and ms than id be hitting op
The reset is more frequent than it should be
2.5 mins 430 cleavs 150 reaps doesnt rly seem as good
Also we don't get bs back that fast as well fury legit can get 2 BS in a pull 
just got rly lucky at the start
i actually hate the direction they've taken this tier for warrior
Fury seems to be enjoying thiers
I like the colossus bonuses
they doubled down on making fury spam RB and arms still gets fucked by juggernaut despite the increased proc from tier
Im enjoying arms still even tho it feels weird
im just coping trying to play arms for last couple in raid 
Colo arms fucks just needs abit more boss damage
Prot warrior is having a good time tho
fury and prot are tuned well for sure
fury its a gameplay problem for me not a tuning problem
They should fix the 4pc for slayer for execute to proc reap
the gameplay is somewhat brainrot at this point
Instead of op
Now that would be fun
Its better than execute clap
And feels like it syncs with the 2pc
idk what they should do honestly
feels like arms should have 100% juggernaut uptime if it has boss uptime with the way its balanced
They need to hire someone that love arms for class design lol
but u can still just get rng fked
its rarer but it happens
and this tier has a lot of forced juggernaut resets throughout
Idk but I am juggernaut hater, it's too much all or nothing
it would unironically be ok if it was 5 stacks like ashen
Arms should revolve around mortal strike more
I love playing the wheelchair (8/8N, 4/8H, not big boy)
its just too punishing to drop atm
It does have it's uses like when progging with bads 
If only it worked like we want it to
But once bosses go into farm mode it's pain
hot take but rend can fuck off
spec is not for maintenance dots its for big numbers
Oh nvm the col set is only 1 MS anyway
i like the demolish part but the dot part just bothers me
I personally think rend should be baked into deep wounds too
i think its just pure bloat
especially with tclap only doing 5 targets
sure its been in the game forever but its an ancient relic at this point
3 sentence*
3 letters (ass)
😭
🤣
3 letters (jug)
zug
Isn't spear like strictly PvP only though
They could make it useful pve if they want to
Without it being utterly obnoxious
in PvP though is my thoughts
For starters they can make it the crit version of roar maybe
Pvp balance is a whole new can of worm 
Tell me more, we paying PvP tax since forever 
Meanwhile Ret 
Rets when they can't global peeps in pvp🐵
i played ret in s1 and 2. Would be amazing if warrior could get the kind of love that ret gets.
And isnt midnight catering to pally as well?
i tried to check top 10 arms warriors in raider io but they were all fury atm for some reason, what's the bis stats for arms in m+ rn ?
I believe you know the answer 
Crit for that juicy demolish
crit all the way or cap at 25k or something
Until DR i guess, other stats will eventually be worth more due to it, but getting that big crit during wb window feels nice
only way to know for sure is to sim. There's no hard rule. Generally we want to get a bunch of crit and haste but you should always sim to guide your gear choices.
tried slayer fury with the new hotfix, but maaan I just love arms too much
don't think it converts me
There's some merit using it mostly on dB streets and maybe eco dome
without a substantial single target buff, it kinda feels like trolling playing arms right now after that fury change
aoe damage within a fraction of a percent and significantly higher single target for fury
Yea colossus p hard to justify now
Even before the hotfix, slayer fury felt better than fury has in a while but its just still gross. I barely lasted 2 weeks before.taking a small downgrade in gear and going back xD
they gonna shadow buff mortal strike by 20 %. trust. 
Nah we getting a 3% aura nerf cause ppl start seeing numbers
Yeah, Thane I didn't mind because it kind of played itself. Your big prio spells also maintained upkeep of cleave and enrage. With Slayer it just feels like enrage is always falling off and you're running out of cleave
I just want some more st
Meta comp Flood +13
lol fantastic. Needs a mistweaver
u would deprive the arms warriors of skyfury ⛔
Dang true
Damn that’s sick!
do we know what this patch did today? I don't see any info on wowhead
didnt change anything
u consider halls hard?
I don't have any stats on hand, but I defo feel like Halls is one of the worst keys this season
Agreed
Lots of things that just kill your tank if not handled well that aren’t really as present in other keys
Halls along with Arakara are the two most bricked keys this season. Saw the stats for each dungeon the other day.
I really like Halls, but if someone misses loyal beasts interrupt or pull extra in the courtyard when tank doesnt have cds then its basically an insta wipe
I know that unless im pushing io that week. I will skip those two along with streets.
streets is rather free though
Not always
I've run into plenty of tanks that pull more than they need to. Or dps that struggle on the last boss.
People be doing too much on that last boss. People won’t just chill out and look at shapes
I always found halls utterly miserable, from the hounds that enrage, the shard dudes that do the earthquake and take forever to die, and the stupid church miniboss and the 200000 adds
I don't dislike the dungeon, but its definitely harder than most this season
yeah i mean the tank busters are pretty real 😛
Halls is the hardest dungeon by far right now
Yeah
I love posting a halls 16 even 15 key and there's gonna be ppl with all 16s and 17s signing up because it's their last key for resil
Basically if you wanna time a halls right now it's all on your tank as you need to chain pull to an extreme degree to make it.
Is it just me that the 4pc bonus from colossus arms seems odd for the spec proposal? Why not make Cleave also have the MS effects with the bonus?
Tbh free key if you pass the first boss zone. Only big dmg is required after that...
That's the hard part is how well you do the first area
A lot of groups fail cuz they spend to much time in that area and don't have enough time for the rest of the key
Bricked a 16 halls yesterday that we would have timed right before 2nd boss
Tank was super impatient and lept up the stairs to 2nd boss while there was still groundskeepers running around. But gargoyles were gonna spawn in 10 so we had to run up to follow him and a grounds keeper survived boomy dots and rogue bleeds with like 1% and pulled triple garg while we were doing 2nd boss
smh, you didnt execute em?
your fault
4m ST is alright in M+ atm, ye? Not sure how scuffed that is or not
As ppl post sims doing 5m ST 
halls kinda ok if you got kickers
imo
still harder than p much everything else
again, I don't think it's a bad dungeon; I actually like the thematics, it's just not one of the easy ones either
yea gotta have good kickers, good route and chain pull hard
just did a 16 with 15s to spare, boomie died worst possible moment lol on last add in lust
lost so much time
last mini boss*
For arms that's good for Slayer fury that's low
Ish ya recommend to aim for as fury, pure ST event?
I'm usually 4.5 - 5 mil depending on CDs
Aighto, thanks matie 
Then if you got a cool tank who pulls onto boss you winning at 6-7 mil
First boss HOA goes hard with that middle pack pulled onto or one of the sides
Id love to know this as well
What trinket would be more preferrable Zephyrium Pacemaker or Astral Antenna (same track/ilvl)? The Antenna sims higher but i read somewhere that the buff uptime from the sims is noticeably lower in reality.... Any experiences regarding this dilemma?
idk pretty hard to not get the antenna buff the ball chases you for 20 seconds
unless you’re doing like high movement and going super far away from one pack to the next frequently or something think antenna yappers are just dumb it’s good
a very few times I’ve noticed my ball kinda just not moving idk if it got stuck in something or what
isnt there a sim option for antenna with like a 20% miss rate too
but like I def don’t think I’m missing balls like at all
maybe a wa could be a little helpful to track the buff showing u how many balls are active
just to like more easily look at how many there are
maybe they get stuck hitting invisible bunnies sometimes... Thanks for the info ^^
Time-Lost Worldbreaker why this mace so small?
Why the fuck is there a filthy fury in our glorious arms channel
anyone using doctorio wa? I don't understand the white border what does it mean for mortal strike
Because Blizz loves making 2h weapons the size of a big 1h
I still won't forgive them for making a new up rez of maladath from classic BWL in DF keeping it the same size but calling it a 2h wep
Shit was disgusting
Agree.
agree
came back from semi season 1 on saturday
