Its not even in the ballpark. Id imagine tanks are doing 50-60k lol
brewmaster doing 90k 
Maybe its just cope but I feel like the spreadsheet can't be right
Its probably cope. Blizzard just abandoned arms warriors
Nop. I like Arms Demolo being a DPS spec
But yea, we said many times, lust would be good on war, fits the lore, the fucking spec shouts stuff, banner or whatever Blizz want
But it wouldn't save the spec, if you bring lust and 20K st in M+
Lust won't make you sexy for M+ group
Speaking of my post if you hate the 12.05 changes make your voice heard. 2nd most popular post by a mile keep it up boys! No way we still get ignored!
The crazy this is that there were so many options through the different tier sets to spice things up for Arms warriors… and they decide to bring back ravager and avatar…. Avatar i can close an eye.. but Ravager without CDR has no place in the arms kit. i agree that Reap on SD is great.. not Fury RB tier great.. but at least it provided some...
How wild is it that they plan on nerfing us in months while we are already in the gutter
I don't really care that it's a nerf I care that it's destroying good gameplay
It's like shooting someone that's already dead 😂
But if that's what you care about voice that complaint in the thread!
More comments from more people the better!
Make ARMS great again
unironically forums are the best way to get feedback across to the devs, they don't look anywhere else really for the most part afaik
They don't look at all 😂
I think we will be fine lads, trust
well they definitely aren't looking at the lobotomites on twitter or reddit for constructive feedback
Blizz has said many times forums is the best way even if it doesn't feel like it. So if we can keep this forum thread active till the next set of ptr notes. We have a good chance to get these changes reverted or improved
whether you like it or not voicing your feedback on the forums is the best way to get things changed
Yea no, they take datas from fucking delves and M0 to tune us. After many months of beta
Yeah the interaction is really fun
So it's even worse
I love procs on procs
Why beta then, if not to test and tune stuff
43 posts in your thread now!
It's an interaction that slayer requires to feel good in AOE. Something we have asked for since TWW beta
good question... been wondering the same for a while now
My experience is that forum posts never really change anything but its good to do anyways
idk you can complain about it and you might be right but if you're not saying anything in the forums you're yelling into the void
no devs peek class discords for feedback
WoW devs are notoriously stubborn
That's how I usually feel to but I'm taking a final stand here. I absolutely do not want to lose AOE on SD after only having it for half a patch. It's insanity
Look what happened to fury in DF
Like there was a point in the past where they just decided to not adhere to any forum postings as a policy
otherwise you're pretty much just not doing anything about it
They took data from heroic week, delves and M0
Fury got nerfed to the ground and below
I just want to spin and slayer has more spinning than other things
I don't think that's true at all ngl
forum posts have gotten things changed in recent expansions a good amount of times
I mean it was ancient times. Things change. Im old as fuck haha
Stopped playing the game between wrath and legion

All this yapping in discord and not enough yapping in here 
The crazy this is that there were so many options through the different tier sets to spice things up for Arms warriors… and they decide to bring back ravager and avatar…. Avatar i can close an eye.. but Ravager without CDR has no place in the arms kit. i agree that Reap on SD is great.. not Fury RB tier great.. but at least it provided some...
I remember they used to be super active on forums and then suddenly stopped interacting with it at all and I think they released a statement regarding it but my memory is pretty shoddy on that
Just the sheet above, where we do less damage than a Brew should be enough for blizzard to do something
I understand arms is at least doing well in multi target scenarios
Terrrrrible single target. Definitively the worst
But I hear they are one of the best for multi
I havent seen the numbers on that but I hope someone has them haha
The single target is so bad that it definitely affects even m+
Yea, and even if you have the biggest AOE by miiiiles, if you have no ST/prior
That's it
Im fine with having lower dps. I just dont want to be dead weight
Yea same
I don't want to be busted so everyone reroll War
I just want to not be an affix
So good multi target numbers is a good thing at least. Maybe we can still get decent overall damage for the m+
Definitely not on bosses but you cant have everything
If tanks are strong then pulls will be bigger
huffs copium
My morale shall not waver
Ill play arms with my buds and my other character, a feral druid, should be strong enough to get in pugs
And if it truly is awful, I can just tank on warrior and still enjoy arms for pvp
what do we need to be mid to low mid, another 15%? lol
With how strong arms aoe will be on reset. Arms will be ok in M+ especially if your playing with a consistent group. And if you have the ability to form the comp around you. Just have the other two DPS be ST/prio focused
Add in a havoc DH to fuck up prio
And some other strong ST spec
fury is also shit dps ?
Ele. No doubt 🥳
yeah? why
If dmg is all that matters to you then pick ele
If you value fun then just pick what's more fun shaman or warrior
What are our predictions i nraid? dead last?
Considering arms raid performance is all about ST since we can't meaningfully pick up aoe like fury... Yeah dead last
honestly all of three pretty fun to me, so idk. maybe i should roll with arms bczo i have a full premade team for m+. and i can pug with elem
So I am new to the discord but warrior has been my favorite class since I picked wow up...and while I was pretty sad about the state of arms, the buffs have me a bit hyped. Do yall think the update will actually have us grab the 4th apex point? If so what are we dropping to get ot?
You can swap between arms and fury anytime. Just keep 2 sets of jewelry and a 2nd wep
We will be dropping battlelord for the 4th apex point
you mean try to roll with arms if i rly like that and we will see what will happen?
You said you were undecided between arms and fury. So I am just making sure you know you don't have to pick either. You can swap freely between them whenever you want
Secondary stats are pretty fake just have a 2nd set of jewelry
Cool thanks! How much do we expect the buff to really help our st?
oh, okey now i get it. thanks for the advice m8. I always played arms then i skipped it for tww. Now seems kind of fun actually so maybe ill try it
The 4th apex is about a 3% gain. Arms ST is still very much in the trash and still behind a tank
Likely more buffs on the 24th
Even with the increase to our damage buff?
Tbh dude (and I swing back and forth on this) just play what you think is the most fun. There will be pain if its not the strongest most meta class ever but it will be more rewarding and the meta will change fairly often in the next few months
arms is still last dps spec
Slayer losing in st to brew monk
Damn
colossus is obviously lower
and both hero talents suck thematically and in practise
pretty funny we got a huge buff and we are still dog shit
i like the heroic strike hero talent personally i just wish the stacks maintained and refreshed rather than falling off
See I think arms slayer feels amazing just needs numbers. Collosus used to be one of my favorites until the rage and energy changws
Rare colossus enjoyer
I love colossus
Hahaha I love it cause it feels diff
It’s just doo doo rn😔
Yeah the rage starvation is reall
Slayer doesn’t play right that shiz feels janky as hell
idk i think slayer feels fine its traditional arms play but holy crap we need our abilities to do damage
Nah that's way worse. It will make it feel like shit when it falls off and we would be tuned to whatever the stack cap is set at
execute not being one of our top damaging moves is insane
getting slimed by rets in all aspects feels so shit
what about it feels janky? pressing MS? OP? CS? slam? cleave?
Slayer is far from janky that shit is as smooth as butter
Random BS procs visual overload for me I guess
feels fine to me just need damage
so it looks janky to you not feels janky?
Alright guys stop arguing over nothing
Visual feed back throws me on my rotation
We just talking
aren't there options to turn that off so you don't get overloaded on the visuals?
Probably doesn’t help that I don’t know what all the procs do since I have player warrior since the TWW changes
No we hate each other personally now
i get that for sure i like it personally myself spinning animation
I can hear this gif
Lot of people in here wanna shit on responding on the forums. I just dont get it. The ship is sinking. Doing nothing isnt working. So lets do something. Go voice your opinion the only place the Devs might look. They may not see your response. But if 100s of people comment. They may not be able to ignore it any longer. IDk maybe copium.
swoosh
Lmaoooo
So for me who’s played Warrior forever visuals are overwhelming for me can’t imagine a new player lol
I love this
yeah warrior visuals have always been pretty understated
I dont really play Slayer, I do think its Crazy when Playing Colo, that Ill have 3-4 Proc Highlights on my action bar and I am ignoring them to hit Cleave and MS. Maybe I am doing something wrong Idk
in a world of people wielding the powers of gods and arcane sources we just hit things really hard
Love all the slayer spinning procs just firing off like crazy too. Love just being even bigger than everyone too especially as a tauren warrior
onlything i miss from visual warriors is old CS animation i loved the jump smash they gave it to enhance shammy now 🙁
When you crush person after person in a bg with executes and mstrikes it also feels badass (made possible by our lovely pocket healers)
I like deathgripping my cock while pumping big executes man shit gets me so bricked
Oh
Arm players be like
Wrist warrior
get out of here fury window licker
Is anyone going stat heavy on Mastery/Crit?
if you only plan on doing mythic plus and our single target never gets buffed you might as well double down on upping our aoe lol
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/cAsgAYEpLnofvX48c49q1v Our single target still struggles 😢
I like haste crit or haste mastery personally
Wrong discord for that
No no, let him cook
Arashicage wants to watch him do it
I thought it was arms appropriate my bad
it aparently didnt affend anyone where a mod stepped in so hes good lol
No its wrong discord cuz warrior dosent have death grip
So he's a dk multi boxed to a warr
Would Mastery/Crit be more suited for Colossus?
not sure I only play slayer
fury and arms
You aren't really gonna go wrong with any amount of Crit haste mastery on arms
All 3 stats are good
Slayer tends to like more haste Colo tends to like a lil more mastery
But really it doesn't matter that much
Ultimately u want a thick weapon and a ton of strength
Ive been focusing on haste + crit. I never really know what is best and blindly follow guides and sims
I think its too early to sim at this point in any case
No
I got the 2h from magister's terrace last night. I was going to use sparks tomorrow for 2H but I may just hold them for a few more weeks.
Yeah if you plan on raiding id even wait to see what drops for you
took way too long. the BM hunter never soaked the balls on final boss and kept crossing the line and dying.
tell me about it Ive been tanking all the M0s and met some truly tomato can players
thats why ill never tank lol
fair enough, but with the current tank shortage it's quite effective if you know your way around it
just have game sounds off listen to some zen music and be high as a kite, ignore party chat
And disable pings, it will do wonders for your mental health
I never see pings.
the shittiest players are the most prepared to spam them
Feels like rushing 4pc tier set is the best thing to do so sparks start dropping randomly
Am I wrong in how that feat of strength system works?
what does it mean i need 2 combinations for top gear sim
This guy gets it. Be one with the zug
Do you think the Murder Row Boots that provide avoidance is a decent item? I only plan on doing mythic+.
Avoidance is aight but you don't really need it
I came back in TWW from BFA and it seems the opinion on crafted items is so stingy.
Means you either unselected something you currently have equipped or didn't select anything at all
There you go have fun
Yeah that was fire
Hey it’s my screen shot😂
Its ironic I play brewmaster monk and arms
what is prot warriors dps
Nothing impressive
Aren't we at least doing better than ass rogues?
idk thats only one of the ass specs soooo

dw, today they will release updated notes
We're only suppose to take the 4th point of our apex talents once we get 4pc right?
with 20% more buff
you will take the 4th apex point on server reset
ty
Rip battlelord my beloved
indeed
pray for colossus to be main st arms so we can take buttlord instead of bladestorm
I hate colossus
dont have to pray just wait till 12.05 and colo beats slayer because slayer is dead.
how much longer until we delete the arms discord
will never happen
arms too fun
because the only thing that will happen is the entire wow community laughs at us for being cringe and pathetic.
Archi literally communicates directly with the devs
If that isn’t working closing the discord won’t for sure

If you wanna complain about arms complain in here. Specifically the 12.05 stuff
Going into Midnight, Arms’ overall gameplay was a great improvement over TWW—aside from issues like rage starvation and being reliant on having a shaman friend at all times. Slayer felt fun and fluid to play. One amazing change that was made in Midnight was something we’ve been asking for since the TWW beta: Sudden Death proccing Reap the...
Just looks childish and stupid
well when ret was bad they all collectively bargained to quit until they got fixed should we do the same?
...
go on strike delete the discord? throw tomatoes at a blizzard building?
you realize the tuning notes came out the same day ret shutdown their discord
blizz doesnt work like that. things are planned out multiple days in advance
car bomb Ian H....
ret was already planned to get buffed. the shutdown just made them look like babies
j/k
I know its hard to believe, but a lot of planning goes into these hotfixes and updates.
would you prefer MS did most our damage or execute?
Mortal Strike hands down
I have 0 faith in wow devs after 20 something years
yet they have very observable trends that play out like clockwork =/
is it do it wrong let it be terrible until it doesn't matter anymore then throw you a small scrap?
That's not what I said, and I'd appreciate you not put words in my mouth.
I didn't i asked
No no, back up what your question like it wasn't pointed.
that's not the same as "putting words in your mouth"
It absolutely is.
you are being ridiculous over something trivial
Almost like words have meaning or something. Crazy.
yeah if you understood the meaning of words you wouldn't be throwing a fit over nothing
Nah, I called you out on putting words in my mouth (in a very polite way btw). If you don't like, it choose better words or ask less pointed questions.
Gentlemen, no fighting in the war room
I did not put any words in your mouth you don't understand what that means please stop talking to me
asking pointed questions is not the same thing.
There’s only one way to solve this 1v1 outside of org
Nah. Melee, FD, No items, Only fox
is it the 17th yet, i cant wait to go from poo to silver poo
I dont understand that. Ret has topped the charts in every dungeon ive been in with them
No this in reference to the start of TWW S3
Raid only thing thst matter kol
Im kinda new to Stats but based off that Spread sheet going around, Colo Arms is outside 2 sample standard deviations. In the surveying world that would just get thrown out as a blunder or anomaly. Just outlandishly bad. 22.5k under avg. The top Dps is only 16k over avg.
I would consider anything within 16k of Avg(103k) to be "okay"
Big time buffs with mythic and m+ drop why y'all stressin
Buffs so big ye can finally stop being a boss healing spec
Because we don't trust blizz to do it properly lol
Thats post Tomorrows buff I think. Which means we need another 15k+ buff to just get into the mid range.
Assuming all the other numbers stay the same, which they wont.
Imagine they don’t slide another 15% into tomorrows patch
they wont but theres more tuning on the 24th
theres planned tuning for the next 3 weeks
wether arms gets buffed or not is still the legendary 50/50
How can a dev see tank above a dps and not go 🤔
how can a dev see a universally loved change and decide to revert it half a patch later
If we wanted to be within 8k of Avg(we would still be under) We dead ass need another 20% aura buff on top of the 15% we already getting. Insane
35-40% to get to where feral druids are.
this is singletargt though
gotta keep people playing classic eras for the warriors cant let retail warriors be the goats!
Can't even let us be mid
Literally all of beta i got told "we'll be fineee, we still got x time before the season
🙏
Ret does HUGE damage in dungeons but they'll complain it's not "effective damage" and their raid performance is bad and whatever. But just like all last season no one could hardly touch a ret on the meters
ret complaining
and water will continue to be wet
whats crazy is the change on ptr patch 12.05 is live now and you can see we lose almost 60k aoe with the 15% buff were about to get will put us up a bit until 12.05 goes live for slayer then were right back where our aoe was before.. Yet our single target is even lower
fuck the numbers what matters is they are actively making the gameplay worse
thats just cherry on top of it for sure
but lets be honestly people would complain less if our numbers were up gameplay style or not
overall addicts
i'm not even that worried about damage, they usually buff eventually
opinions less valuable than fent addicts
but gameplay they just don't fix
or they make it worse
SD reap removal is a massive L
yeah that has to be a disconect somewhere in the development
or like someone said yesterday when i was running zeros someone who mains arms warrior slept with the developers wife smh
it is lol
I had to level my third warrior to 90 might be last time i get to play this slayer version 🙁
I get the whole Numbers dont matter as much as gameplay thing. But they stll matter, even if you dont care, Pug groups and raid teams might.
Thats just my one take, Please dont roast me
numbers are much easier to fix than gameplay
^
I agree forsure.
like theres still 3 more planned tuning patches numbers will even out eventually so I rather my spec play well and feel fun
Pugging is always gonna be a nightmare unless you play fotm or tank/heal
theres nothing that can be done about that
you will press cleave 60 percent of the time and you will like it
when are those supposed to hit?
This explanation or their Arms playing sibling inherited the house during the will reading.
i'm curious how we'll do in raid tbh, might get lots of ST buffs without getting our aoe/cleave nerfed
could actually become rly good in m+
in that timeline anyway xd
seeing how they didnt nerf cleave this first round of tuning
that very well might happen
raid idk arms still has a bad time with aoe and ST talents
this tier has a lot of fights with a bunch of trash taht spawns that you have to clear
i can't see fury doing that bad in raid but ig a lot of classes sim over 100k so have to wait and see
since the DF talents arms has pretty much always decided to pure ST it out and only deal with adds with DN or bladestorm
im worried for that
its almost always never been worth for arms to take aoe talents in raid
besides for pure aoe boss fights
yeah there are so many aoe only or st only talents for arms
yea very secular for aoe vs ST
so arms even with a buffed ST is likely to still feel like shit in this first raid if people are able to pad on adds better
Fury over here just pressing TC and laughing
while losing no ST
Some of us are going to have to bite the damage meter bullet and actually raid as Arms so blizz can get some decent numbers for the 24th.
I mean they will get arms heroic week data
I still plan on playing arms throughout heroic week and ill swap to fury for mythic prog
i was gonna say please sandbag but you won't need to

I mean... on the bright side. Our parses are going to be godlike.
im just glad we dont have a brewmaster!
yes
uhm mr loot master can I get my 4pc its a 9% gain
i thought it would be good
YEET
lmao
dont look at the dmg charts tho!
ty for the gif fishy
i laughed when this come up with the sound hahahhaa
yo fury isnt as good as i thought
wasnt expecting it
its a ST sim for a raid that has very lil pure ST
Fury is middle of pack, it will survive, it has a strong aoe kit build into its st kit
Fury is gonna do very well most likely
4 set for arms is 9.7%
4 set for fury is 3.4%...
jesus
arms 4p kinda owns
it wont
shhh you gotta believe
because of how arms works compared to fury
not even with the aura buff
also gotta think about fury's range here, clap hits such a large area around you
while cleave is just a tiny cone
I think this might be in part due to the spec having a reputation as being very beginner friendly so it attracts a wide spread of players. People on the internet tend to rally around the loudest people so you get situations where some sweats might stir up trouble that would have little to no effect on the average player.
Well said
we are under brewmaster in ST dps
Arms has to take a lot of specific talents for aoe which nukes boss dmg. Since DF its never been worth for arms to ever talent into aoe for any kind of adds in raid. You always stayed ST and only use DN and BS to contribute to add dmg
its so sad its hilarious at the same time xD
the fight would need to be very frequent aoe to warrant swapping to some aoe talents as arms
Arms is full of hipster players who just refuse to play fury
it's wayyyy worse if you talent into aoe lmao
worth a little more after the buffs
11% for arms 4.5% for thane
OKAY
like its fun to do something like colo and pad some aoe on a fight like soulbinder in manaforge last tier but like you werent really helping kill that boss

couple more arms buffs, surely
were wielding pool noodles
before fury slayer reap change happened i actually played some colarms on forgeweaver and blasted
only adds though
boss took 0 dam from me
What does this mean!?
pool noodle spec
dev note on the bottom
so fuckinggood
lmao yeah I did the same on one reclear trying to get demolishes off tho on the adds was annoying af
What the heck is titan reforged?
the bladestorm change is so funny
china wow class where level 80 is cap and every raid is scaled to 80
even classic and tbc
Like WotLK Classic +
China loves rogue and arms warrior
I mean.. China low key dead lifting a lot of games for income <_<;
yeah and they decided to buff arms warrior back to back
I say based
based indeed
arms needs back to back buffs on retail
yo can we import some of the Chinese devs they are fucking cooking with that dev note lmao
they seem to like warriors
would be nice yeah
i would be very supprised if arms isn't brought up over 100k next week
Man imagine if Blizzard actually chased that class fantasy
probs will see more buffs to the lower guys like assassination
i think we didn't get overbuffed this week purely for blizzard to get metrics of the new apex, also avoids another nerf if we was op in hc week which is bad for mythic
You're right, but I'm still gonna be a grumpy puss about it.
personally I think its more since they have the next 3 tuning passes planned out they are just doing lil buffs shaking things up and seeing how things land
and continuing from there
because we all know they dont have internal metrics thats alll just a lie so they need to see what player sims are and heroic week logs
they announced 4 weeks of tuning
yeah I already crossed off the 17ths cuz we got the notes for it
No not that one D:

we always get buffed to medocrity some times, though the slayer nerfs bury slayer into the ground
imagine slayer gets buffed in the next tuning passes and starts owning, but the reap change stays on 12.0.5 ptr so we know the end is near
have we been posting on forums giving the wowdevs ideas on how to buff arms and not harassing them or talking down on them
Gloom into doom
holy
thing is i'm perfectly fine with MS/BT being gutted
as it just makes us do op>ms in aoe always
it will make bladestorm weaker as no reaps but they could finally buff it to do actual aoe instead of relying on reap

add to the list or you aint helping
Honestly I dont post much but arms needs a rework in the worst of ways I dont understand why you all are so focused on even using slam let it go let that button press die dont add anoter button to replace it just let it die. Arms in Mop was great do a lot of damage inside of CS make mortal strike hit like the truck it is meant to be give us lots...
But the SD change is a huge nono
lets just remove any reason to not press cleave/ww/op in aoe while your other buttons rot
o7
it's still crowned by mages
very good ima do it
can they also make a forum for both eu and usa already
so stupid eu people can't post on NA forums
So when did arms become like bad design wise? I feel like when i started playing in MoP arms was the go to, then after legion Fury became the go to and thats all i see anymore
bfa
ruined the entire spec
bfa began the downfall
only down hill from there
But BFA did bring us EP
Did it?
this scene is so good lmaooo
it's me reading any warrior patch notes
Then what was the one they removed after S1 of BFA
if you check the page for ep
yu can see it was removed in bfa alpha
and only recently got added back
yeah legion EP was crazy
I coudla sworn we had EP as an Azurite Power, and we slammed all of S1 of BfA and Blizz removed it
I miss condemn sfx
the one with the boom at the end
also the sweep condemn animation
that felt heavy
yeah we did have EP as an Azerite power
this was our BFA talent tree
i miss furious slash
whys your pfp of enrage regen 
🙂

enraged regen doesn't even exist anymore does it
why not dbts why er
Look at this peak man
I was mad at the 30 talent tree.
its not ER, its focused rage from Legion 
peak...
antorus arms was funny, i played fob trauma and needed giga rng to beat executie on allstars, he played rend titanic might
its so peak
i think some people also played overpower instead of dauntless on st
holy build variety
i watched ur argus kill few days ago
more than with these piece of shit trees
seeing ms hit for like 10x ur current dps in exe with 2x ep
i watch it every so often
it makes me sad

Legion classic soon
prayge
surely they just skip wod
ye i didnt play legion but i played on felsong recently
and go straight to legion
legion arm..
end of wod arms...
there was also my r1 logs on kingaroth and the 3 boss council, i played focused rage on those bosses when nobody else did lmao
legit mop trees had more variety than vurrent ones
Whose ready for Explosive in M+ during Legion Classic?
my healer is
my dissc will swp them nö
All of my healers hated that affix so much
I miss it terribly.
execute was insane for both arms and fury
meanwhile today we ask ourselves if execute is even worth the rage cost as arms and prot lmaooo
(its not)
funny have first wr just had it all
then we got to a point where we need 9 talents for aoe
another 12 for st
and now another 4 for execute
Fun, engaging satisfying procs. Core arms gameplay right there.
cs on tactician is key but they refuse to bring it back gg
that's the thing though, arms didnt even have that many buttons
yep
just make the spec actually flow well, you don't need 50 buttons like now
i swear the peak design would be
cs on tactician + shattered defenses + mop taste for blood and chance for op to proc tactician and some incentive to slam>op on high rage. and in exe phase exe overtakes everything except ms
i havent tried devourer myself but it looks fun and has like 3 buttons
we're missing this. (replace CS with OP I guess
)
collapsing star and eradicate look fun asf
also i love how their apex is what arms apex shouldve been
just make ms and demo always crit for colo please
and scale dmg off of crit chance
I literally gave that exact suggestion the day our apex was announced
you know ball
imgur ....
I was like we dont need more cdr it should just be increase CS dmg amp
Begging! We need this so bad T-T
also for me personally s3 df exe spam was fun. they could try and make slayer play like that with some execute chaining mechanic while colo does the EP gameplay
but they never do any gameplay exploration with arms
so gg
idk I only found it fun because it doesnt happen often
sounds way to fun to happen
if I were to decide between exe spam or EP rotation as forever gameplay its EP rotation every time
should EP also increase next MS crit chance by 25% per stack? 
we're starving like crazy to press execute twice and then MS does not crit... 
Link da argus vid
EP rotation already fits without even having to watch the buffs so I agree your litterly pressing 3 GCDs between MS attacks as slayer already it just works

Critcake - Blessing of Wisdom - Argent Dawn EU
Guys this is an arms warrior right?

see how his dps isnt going up in execute
real
now post the other FURY POV video
oh LMAO I didnt even read it was Critcakes arms pov was looking for the execute one to make the joke xD
FURY WARRIOR BTW
nah was tryna make the joke how everyone posts the execute one thinking its an arms warrior
but its actually fury
and fury catching up
7 years ago 🥲
i love how its unavoidable for the monk
fury WILL stack juggernaut
there is NOTHING you can do about it
so ashen drops
real
8 seconds of downtime = 0dps
arms even lost in for the kill
like bro
our damage window feels like nothing is different
lost iftk just to put the haste in both hero talents xD
except shit hits 30% harder
Lost everything good it had, even the warbreaker animation
its cinema
Id give up avatar for iftk
yeah u actually feel nothing when u use cds now
good times
actually its 45% due to the new apex talent 
yeyeyye
u turn gray brown slightly bigger. u slam the ground
just somehow get 5 stacks before your next cs
and another 5% from tierset
impossible edition
they was scared of that higher uptime on Iftk with our apex CDR lol so they just took it away
people will ask if you should hold CS until 5 stacks apex
fuck me
no way
dont make me play this spec
you dont
and cleave cant even proc it
5 heroic strikes is a lot of rage gl
well i know that
cleave cant even proc apex axaxaxaxaxaxa
but people will
XD
new mage/ret tuning what
time to make a command !armsapex
LMAO that 1000% is gonna happen
and just make cleave do all ur aoe
@daring heron hey first time arms here do we hold CS for 5 stacks
@daring heron hey first time arms here do we hold CS for 5 stacks

i have 24% crit do i need more?
??
@daring heron hey first time arms here, i have 283 haste and 41 vers do i need to get more critical strike chance
lmao yall know the questions that trigger me at this point
its so fucked as stats don't matter anywhere near as much as they used too
@daring heron do I craft weapon
just equip ilvl you win
need 23% crit
relevant ilvl on this one again
oh man that's true
need to update the tom and jerry gif to this
Fifth Element Mentioned!!!
Paladins "Ret" just got a 15% nerf to Final Verdict 9 minutes ago
so that makes my beer taste a little better
yes
yes
yes
Man how tf, where’s the extra 5% aura for arms
Lmao
WE HAVE BEEN HIDING OUR SIMS THIS WHOLE TIME NOW AFTER THIS CHANGE RET IS GARBAGE
I was mid "play argument" with that Turrayllon guy or however you spell it on the Class Change topic
then it happened
The real aura is the kind we farmed along the way
Wait you guys have aura?

yeah, aura nerf
Bench aura
I love sitting!!!!
Not me! I am married to the raid leader. I bring the Shout at least! 😛
ima be honest they buffed their es so it probably isnt even a ret nerf
I SEE THE CORRUPTION INHERENT TO THE SYSTEM
🙂
exceptional one, if you play arms
Lowest on the dps meters, highest on the aura
yeet
I cry a little inside every-time I see this 😢
after playing slayer for last month with sd reap idk if i can bring myself to play collosus
I am shocked frost mage is getting through this unscathed
my frost mage was doing nasty damage in m0
time for demolish to rise
takes so little setup too
the era of slammers
I have 2 friends maining frost and while I can beat them on the initial pull with my feral (not my arms lol) it quickly falls apart afterwards as cds stop lining up and single target becomes more important
I had the same feeling, thought I was just imagining it, and simmed it on single target last night, 223 frost mage does the same damage as my 236 fury warrior
frost also doesn't really have cooldowns
not long ones anywya
so they always do big dam
Frost is not only strong, but smooth and consistent
ice beam goes brr
I feel enh shammy is similar in m+, but their numbers arent as good
how colo arms feels still atleast except when it comes to ST
Their go is 1m
true
colo still slaps every 30 sec with just CS + demo
colo arms sims 450k on 5t 2mins
I always prefer slayer tho just because bladestorm and random spinning is fun
send another 20% aura to fix ST
lol
keep aoe as is
make sure to not touch cleave
so we keep cleaving on st
def dont touch cleave
20% aura into -15% on exe
maybe nerf bleeds a bit actually
cut to the bone to 5%
They're probably trying to think about how to buff ST without turning arms into an unstoppable killing machine in pvp
Enhance is acendance reliant on its burst it does lower sustain aoe than arms but does like 5x aoe with cooldowns same with its single target as stormbringer
i was saying to archi in dms the other day, if they ignore cleave and actually fix st, colossus is going to be nuts in keys
cleave is already getting stupid
Aura buff bandaid while they actually take time to mechanically fix arms
people hate on slam so much, so let's make every button feel worse so slam can look better
Naw dude. Most shammies use totemic these days. It has a weaker but more consistent burst
also rage gen is a candidate
real
sandbag?
From what I have been reading. They can totally separate PVE/PVP - The "Does not apply to PVP" has appeared alot in the buffs/nerfs
we dont need to do that
cleave and slam only
I like slam
im playing col arms only on hc week
holy what a mess
"so you still don't like slam? How about we nerf everything else even more?"
Yeah. I doubt this is the end of their tuning. It almost seems like they want bladestorm to be a lot more impactful in pvp and pve
fighting the good fight
cut to the bone nerfed to 5%
crit forgetting we're a dot specc now
dw, they will, in 12.0.5 DW won't trigger from cleave KEKW
thatss with cleave apllying dw so its already being nerfed
BFA S3 was a dot spec
Ravager doing to much damage
holy piano
i think most people who care about damage will just play fury anyway
only build of arms where i dont play bs or ravager
cleave owns
cleave is 2t king
so arms will be played by everyone else
unironically
we love spotting cleave in our priority lists
Arms is like a chill piano spec with moments of zug zug
1
2
2
1
at 288 surely that's 1
acutally that 1 288 ilvl
xD
funny ability at n2
alles gud
yeah ik its cursed to see
i thought it was an aoe spell
cleave is here to stay
remember Fishy telling me
i mean look at it this way
lowk i dont mind cleave staying as long as its broken on aoe and colo owns
it does 4k less ST than its best set up
that's fucked up lmaoooo
cleave will go bye bye in colossus other than during ravager
but we will slam spam in execute because of the wound change
unbinding execute on colossus in m+ is -100 dps
already calling it
yo the ppl complaining about pruning are gonna love this!
but if you cast execute you can afk for a bit
im sending sd over slam for +100 dps

:ohno:
you afk enough with 10 year long bladestorm
xD
That’s why I play slayer so I can BS run to restroom and come back and not lose DPS
holy
holy
goo bf and cancelaura bs
finger ing
gg

put ms on cd and spam cleave on st 👍
cs - bs - cancelaura - cleave cleave cleave cleave
im gonna do this in m0s
i need to test it lol
zorthas called it an unskippable cutscene when he tried it on beta
get the addon that makes it realistic
yeah, now its a separate addon
get the spinning crane kick and change trigger to bs
/cancelaura bladestorm
/cast cleave
ty
yo guys, been setting up my colossus ui and could use some help, any suggestions?
it looks perfect why change
need more cleave
did u macro ravager to avatar
ravager w cd
so u get the mbg effect once every 1.5mins for 8 seconds
1:30 cleave buff
as yes, I need to bind red cleave
oh no

only a.... 1% dps loss to cancel bladestorm
surely can optimize to make it sim neutral
thanks for your input guys, appreciate it 

Spin and cancel after 1st mortal to get euphoria

maybe?
320,223 bladestorm
316,947 Cancel storm
This is with cyclone, there is more to gain
👀
brutal finish surely closes the gap no
shuuurely
theres an icon with a blue axe but idk what that is so I'll ignore it yeah
let go
not to brag - don't get jealous guys
my fresh 90 frostmage sims 45k
im impressed fire mage got some additional tuning and arms didnt
Don't you go sassin me! I worked hard on this 3 minute sim........
cant let mages have 1 weak spec
fire and arms in the same sentence
they should remove hs from fob and make it deal enough damage where we want to press it on aoe
thoughts
Mages gotta enjoy the freedom of playing what u want
@smoky kayak Does this line make sense?
slayer_st->add_action( "cleave,if=talent.mass_execution&target.health.pct<35" );
If the target is below 35%, the APL should switch to slayer_execute, not slayer_st. Am I missing something?
huh
that lines telling it to press cleave in st if target is below 35% to make it work when we dont talent massacre
^ the apl doesn't swap to Execute at 35% if Massacre isn't talented
I too tend to forget that Massacre only affects the threshold for Execute alone, not other "execute" things
this works on bs?
it would need to do a fuck ton of dmg to not feel like shit xD
or else its just a SD slayer with no reap
yeah it was ragebait
do we know if the new apex talent is going to be worth taking? and if so what are we dropping for it?
yes its wort, dropping battlelord on slayer

oh for sure. thanks King
imagine that
blizzard just go yeh those was changes from 11.0.5 we pushed on accident yikes
so is arms gonna be a puzzlebox enjoyer as well? or just fury
nah arms wants plume and heart/gaze after nerf
still gaze potentially? holy moly
yankee with no brim

All of then sim pretty close. I question if Gaze on live Is still stronger than it looks on sims. Guess we will find out soon enough
is it true a 244 uh dk beats a 288 arms
Nah story mode isn't out tomorrow.
?
That is the only raid difficulty arms can do
I raid with a guild sooo
Does the Blizzard Combat Assist cut down on dps more than 10% for Arms?
We are still finalizing the sims, and the assistance tools will come after. It’s not a high priority atm.
The highlighted assist is usually 5-10% behind and the one button is significantly behind. It all depends on how blizz does their APL
appreciate the info, thank you
