also arms funnel is kinda tech

#

i do like 2x prio dmg when there are 2 adds

#

i tried a bit of slayer in 11s

#

arms

#

idk feels bad

#

bs is an unskippable cutscene

fleet spindle
#

accidentally went slayer on the 10 pit of saron, this was my overall. felt nice on single target bad weaker than colo on mob packs

colo wouldve been top dps but we timed the 10 +2

it was my 3rd highest in a pit 12

#

reap cleave bs

#

or cleave reap bs i forgot

#

it does ok dmg but its sooooo long

#

i legit fall asleep

spring vale
#

You need like a necrotic wake 1st pull for BS to feel like it nudges the damage meter even slightly on arms

astral yarrow
#

i need it to be TBC like. It actually being a button you look forward to pressing in ST if it has to stay this long

minor gust
#

If only they could buff arms BS and not fury BS

latent moss
#

when i played wotlk classic

#

arms bs was so funny

#

it just obliterated everything

perma aggro xdd

i need the tc - wb - bs - release spirit meme to be real

for m+ colossus: is it worth putting improved execute talents now? i dont really use it in m+ that much but the nee buffs is 20% more on top of 12% froma fee days ago..

tldr imp execute talents worthit for colossus m+?

smoky kayak
#

not right now no, but it's getting better, might swap to it after the next weekly reset

rose ibex
#

do you guys think it would be better to craft the bracers or the cape?

smoky kayak
#

arguably whichever one you need more

  • there is a slight advantage to crafting bracers early, in that if you need to take a socket from vault, you have an item to put it into which won't be replaced
junior trellis
#

hoping arms is viable vs fury for next week, already sick of fury lol

abstract schooner
#

To sim for M+ what would be the best settings?

junior trellis

junior trellis
#

Maybe socially acceptable

quaint snow
#

I don't think you know what viable means

junior trellis
#

I think you are intentionally being obtuse around an exact definition vs colloquially understood wording but thank you

lethal acorn
#

I like taking deep wounds to get to ravager instead of crushing combo, you lose 5% aoe but gain 2% single target so you don't really feel behind on st bosses

dire hinge
#

crushing combo is like, most of your burst damage 😬

lethal acorn
#

It also makes cleave feel less spammy after cs so you can play piano with collateral

lethal acorn
dire hinge
#

i do think, yes

#

especially since you dont really cast Execute on Colossus right now

#

and its, at max, two targets

lethal acorn
#

Sustain damage in aoe matters more in higher keys, as does boss damage

yes, thank you

lethal acorn
jovial hare
#

🪤

lethal acorn
dire hinge
#

you're free to do whatever you want, but that's a very poor choice

#

i would highly discourage it

lethal acorn
#

And crushing combo feels bad on single target

minor gust
#

feels great on st

lethal acorn
minor gust
#

because you press cleave in ST

dire hinge
#

tbf you use Cleave over Execute in single target currently so

#

exactly

minor gust
lethal acorn
#

So ofc

dire hinge
#

you also rage starve yourself

jovial hare
#

yeah bc its not worth investing into on colo

dire hinge
#

again, you can do whatever you want to, but this is not a good choice with current tuning

lethal acorn
#

Not as bad as y'all say

#

In practice

#

Looks worse on paper

quaint snow
#

These numbers are from what

lethal acorn
#

and 1 target patchwerk

quiet bramble
quaint snow
#

That’s funny

lethal acorn
#

I mean I play colossus in raid so deep wounds in m+ is less of a crime

languid torrent
#

this

dire hinge
#

arms (currently) excells in AoE and struggles in single target. If you hamstring your AoE burst window to do a pitiful bleed on single target (in colossus mind you, where you dont press execute much to begin with), you're making yourself worse at both sweat

#

if you're reaching for anecdotal key data saying you preform better with it, i'd sooner point to you probably playing the default build incorrectly, more than the talent choices being better

lethal acorn
#

I like my pitiful bleeds :^(

lethal acorn
dire hinge
#

better how? You're making Collateral do less damage with it peepoThink

lethal acorn
#

Getting the 3 stacks

#

CD is up every two cooldowns

dire hinge
#

you lose 3 stacks per Collateral if you dont take Crushing Combo?

lethal acorn
#

slam proc is 1 of 3

dire hinge
#

you realize the Fervor of Battle procs count towards Collateral right? So that's 4 stacks in 4 gcds upfront

lethal acorn
lethal acorn
dire hinge
#

ah, you're one of those who wants to stack things up before sending it

#

it's not worthwhile to worry about

#

we did the math sweat

languid torrent
lethal acorn
#

Crushing combo just feels so braindead to me and the pruning made arms too easy

dire hinge
#

Pruning? Arms has more buttons now than it did in TWW 😂

lethal acorn
lethal acorn
dense sphinx
dire hinge
#

i genuinely can't tell if this is bait or not, our APL is longer than it was in TWW for Colossus AoE

jovial hare
#

./s

dire hinge
#

i wish sad_cat

lethal acorn
#

I was referring to both ST and AoE for the pruning stuff

quiet bramble
dense sphinx
#

the only button we lost was troar?

minor gust
dire hinge
#

right, our Colossus ST is 19 lines long, and AoE is 22

lethal acorn
#

I was never talking about buttons

quiet bramble
lethal acorn
#

I took skullsplitter in M+

#

Buttons aren't my concern

dense sphinx
#

pruning literally refers to buttons

#

what else are u pruning

#

braincells?

dire hinge
#

"how you press them and in what order" (which also got longer)

languid torrent
lethal acorn
#

Rotation oder of operations getting simplified

languid torrent
#

with that sentance alone

lethal acorn
dire hinge
#

skullsplitter was pretty good tho hmmNod

#

insano burst

languid torrent
#

just because it was good doesnt mean anything

dense sphinx
#

hrothmar already disproved you, the apl got longer in midnight

languid torrent
#

skullsplitter was beans

lethal acorn
#

I'm okay with more buttons if they are from my class and not trinkets

lethal acorn
dire hinge
#

i will say, i spun up a BM alt the other day for guild keys and man it's pretty wild looking at their pruning

dense sphinx
#

so you mentioned pruning but its not about buttons and not about apl

#

where are you moving the goalpost now?

lethal acorn
#

Pruning is probably the wrong word

#

I never moved the goalpost I think I just used the wrong word

dire hinge
#

they're entilted to have whatever opinion they want, and nobody can tell them how to play their monthly sub 👍

lethal acorn
#

The picture I posted was not meant for optimization, I play colossus in raid ffs

dire hinge
#

a surprising amount of breakthroughs have come via someone in the community finding something, recommending it, and it actually ends up working out

#

kek aint this one tho

languid torrent
lethal acorn
dense sphinx
#

by someone you mean korean guy

dire hinge
#

hahaha ilu ❤️

lethal acorn
dire hinge
#

for real though, it's what like a 1.2k(ish) ST gain, and basically entirely unused in AoE, and that's what I'd be more concerned about personally. Even if you somehow kept it going for an entire key it'd only be like 1% of your damage for a LOT of manually execute applications, on a hero tree that tries to never press execute to begin with.

#

so for most of the dungeon it's sitting unused

lethal acorn
#

Yeah my mentality was just tyrannical bosses

#

I needed an excuse to not mash cleave 4x in a row every cs

dense sphinx
#

the only significant gain for ST on bosses is bringing trash onto them

#

we're funnel

#

pull trash onto boss and u do more boss dam just by cleaving

dire hinge
#

in keys 10 and higher Tyran is always active, and it's basically healthier to bring a dps who has strong single target and have them carry you on bosses.

Arms job, at the moment, is to clear the trash and get that other ST DPS to the boss as fast as you can

lethal acorn
#

Dross means trash so I know I'm meant to clear trash, trust me guys

dire hinge
#

haha, that's pretty funny actually (thanks for that tidbit of info!)

dense sphinx
#

also the execute and op buffs are pitiful sadge

lethal acorn
#

As a colossus player, those kinda benefit slayer more

#

I want them to add like a double damage to demolish on your main target, make demolish good on single targets

dire hinge
#

yeah the change wont actually make Execute any good in M+ (for Colossus)
It's mostly targeted at trying to kill the current APL, which is "Arms Colossus in ST uses Cleave isntead of Execute below 35%". So by bumping up execute damage we can stop doing that

dense sphinx
#

but they said

Developers’ notes: Arms single target damage remains lower than intended, particularly Execute.

dire hinge
#

right, and that's still true

dense sphinx
#

lets buff execute 20% which does less than 2% of our ST

dire hinge
#

Arms Colossus's "execute" damage was so dogshit that we used Cleave when the boss was Low HP

#

this bump is basically barely enough to make Execute better, in that scenario

dense sphinx
#

well the other issue is we dont even have rage to spam Execute during execute

dire hinge
#

real

lethal acorn
#

We won't take massacre anyway right? So above 20% do we still cleave bosses after tuesday?

dire hinge
#

out here charge weaving again sad_cat

dense sphinx
#

like even if execute was worth pressing

lethal acorn
#

I enjoyed charge weaving in shadowlands but I'm a psycho

dense sphinx
#

i still have to hold back and NOT press execute or i might not have enough rage for the next MS

dire hinge
#

we can't do it very well right now since we can't track swing timers any more

lethal acorn
#

I really like my house though

dense sphinx
#

i remember a time when bosses hit 20% and you're like WARRIOR TAKE US HOME

#

not anymore though

dire hinge
#

Ret Pally technically can since thier Crusader Strike becomes their auto-attack, and they track the Crusader Strike cooldown 😂

#

but not arms, who low key needs it

#

love my house hmmNod

dense sphinx
#

i dunno whats their fear of giving us too much rage

#

would our dps even go up much if we had unlimited rage in sim

torpid acorn
dire hinge
#

we swam in too much rage most of TWW (until execute phase) and people called it our "cosmetic rage bar". This is complete speculation, but that probably didn't sit well with them since Arm's whole identity was rage management and planning your spells

torpid acorn
#

IRL

dense sphinx
#

except rage management now means sitting on empty gcd cos ill screw my next MS if i press something

#

(when im out of OP)

dire hinge
#

granted, arms doesn't really have an identity currently. At best we're the two-target kings, but none of the 2-target raid bosses let you pull them close together

languid torrent
#

dont make me rage manage in execute phase outside of that idc

dense sphinx
#

we aren't even 2T kings, have u seen frost mage

torpid acorn
#

thats the symbiotic relation that the player has with the Arms warrior. the more rage the char has, the less the player. and vice versa

dire hinge
#

two target execute goes crazy, but we can't capitalize on it in raid

languid torrent
#

shit goes hard

torpid acorn
#

inst it a bit lackluster that a crit only gives 10% more rage? thats like.. 2 rage extra. how has it been like this? last time i played retail was on S2 DF and we had such nice rage we even used ignore pain for tactician and Might buff

dire hinge
nova ravine
#

Give back rage gain on taking damage

dense sphinx
#

the funny thing is prot has too much rage

#

i have to spam IP on full IP for the sole purpose of AM

dire hinge
#

god never bring back IP as a DPS increase, that stuff was cursed

spring vale
#

Prot is a 2 keyboard spec. You put the 2nd one under your desk and use it as a foot pedal to press IP fast enough. Its legit worse than old Guardian Druid Thorns of Iron

dire hinge
#

tbf thorns of iron you just macro'd your iron fur into each of your generators then walked to the end of the dungeon keks

spring vale
dire hinge
#

still can tbh, if you dont care about single target dps

marsh needle
dense sphinx
#

they are doing the keep consecrate guy out thing

#

that's really bad for arms dps

spring vale
#

Since its the same deal as Crusading Strikes trait on Ret

dense sphinx
#

but would they need to?

spring vale
#

No but just goes to show that Blizzard could totally give us an organic way to track a swing timer for arms if they gave us a similar trait (which would be pretty sick for Arms anyway)

dense sphinx
#

id welcome anything that results in more rage

spring vale
#

Of the specs with emphasis on autos, arms could use one of these "enhanced auto attack" traits to make our autos a bit more special

dense sphinx
#

having to conciously NOT press a gcd and that being the right play

#

CANNOT be good game design

#

and it is definitively unfun

dire hinge
# marsh needle Should paladins be able to have all 3 together more? I feel like most of tbe fig...

As Rei said, they're going to move around a lot and the fight is mostly a 2-target fight with occasional third target between the ground-spells that you have to walk out of. A decent wait to visualize this is to look at the highest DPS Arms logs for that fight, and look for a spell like Mortal Strike (which gets cast constantly, even in AoE). You can then see which bosses got hit by it, and it paints a picture of when the bosses are together and apart

vagrant void

question regarding anger management

#

we dont take it because it throws out all cd's right?

dire hinge
#

we do take it, and it does throw out our CDs

vagrant void
#

ah, well thats fun

dire hinge
#

haha, luckily your Colossus Smash and Avatar are pretty much always gonna line up with each other, and both are affected by anger management

vagrant void
#

just finding the right place for bladestorm then?

dire hinge
#

the ones that get out of sync are your Ravager, Demolish, and Bladestorm, but you basically just hold those for your next Colossus Smash most of the time

#

exactly yeah

#

for Slayer (in all content) you only cast Bladestorm if Colossus Smash is applied to your target

#

M+ AoE, Raid, M+ Single Target -- it all holds Bladestorm for when CS is applied.
Once you get 4piece your Colossus Smash lasts a long time on targets, which helps a lot

0pc gamer here

languid torrent
#

? just loot tier?

nova marsh
dire hinge
#

it's fine to race for 4pc because you get farmable catalyst charges once you have it

#

with Hero pieces being farmable i'd still wait for hero pieces at least tho, +6 dungeons are a cake walk

bitter jewel
#

so... has anyone every recieved 4 PI's and had logs invalidated?

dire hinge
#

if you get PI from multiple sources it instantly invaldates logs yes, that's by design

bitter jewel

so I can just get turbo griefed by my two priest friends any time?

hahah, technically yes

bitter jewel

he's actually trolling me to invalidate my logs

dire hinge
#

it's nice your friends are giving you PI though, there's much better targets for it

#

but yeah, just coordinate with your friends and have only one of them PI you, then have the other one target a good spec, like Unholy or something

It's not great but it is playable

abstract sphinx

its fine

#

i will let it go

dense sphinx
# nova marsh why?

cos i cant reach 4pc yet, what if i catalyst something and i get the same slot tier piece in vault next week

dense sphinx
#

yeah

languid torrent
#

how close are you because that cata charges at 4p are pretty frequent

nova marsh
#

I mean I still say it's worth it

nova marsh
dense sphinx
#

i literally cant hit 4pc this week so no point sending cata until next vault

#

and there's no content im doing for the rest of this week that needs 2pc anyway

barren rain
#

do people actually like the feel of bladestorm and want to use it?

nova marsh
#

fair enough

dense sphinx
#

i like using it on aoe

nova marsh
#

It's literally warriors most iconic ability even if it's damage is tuned around added affects still

dense sphinx
#

i dont like using it on st

barren rain
#

it is the most iconic, but idk it feels kind of weird to use

#

you press a button and then afk for a bit

#

on aoe it feels like, yeah, on st it feels dumb and always felt dumb since being introduced

nova marsh
#

I mean I feel like this is personal taste tbh

#

and a lot of meele nowadays have channels

barren rain
#

actually I’d say mortal strike is the most iconic ability now that I think about it

dense sphinx
#

MS and Execute are more iconic to me but i've played since vanilla

nova marsh

Eye beam, fists, killing spree (even if outlaw dosen't run it atm :()

I’ve always wanted an awesome powerful ground slam like the barbarian in Diablo. In fact….just take 90% of the animations from Diablo Barb and make it for wow warrior.

#

I always feel like an unstoppable juggernaut as a barb. It’s like what warrior should feel like in wow.

barren rain
#

make heroic leap do a ton of damage as a choice node with bladestorm and we’re good

rancid willow
#

Also bugs me that we’re plate wearers but get shit on by other melee.

#

Rogues or hunters shouldn’t have it easy against us.

#

And little knife isn’t gonna pierce plate armor

#

Or an arrow

steel sluice
#

Don't forget wc3 where all the blade master cool orcs went zug zug with blade storm so I would say it's more iconic than ms and execute

rancid willow
#

But I’m just getting philosophical

barren rain
rancid willow
#

Yesss

#

I def did that several times in vanilla

#

We got our guild first Garr kill that way

#

The little adds. I tanked them as arms

steel sluice
#

It might be but the effect it had in the game looks more like blade storm but I wish had more stuff carry over from wc3

rancid willow
#

Honestly I just want something completely new

#

Warrior feels stale.

steel sluice
#

Imagine shock wave doing dmg again like in wc3 tbh I kinda want that

rancid willow
#

I miss when every expansion classes would get an all new ability

#

That made us feel like we really progressed and became powerful.

#

This apex talent crap doesn’t cut it

steel sluice
#

I don't even know why they did apex when they could have just worked on hero specs more and balance them better imo it should just be a play style change, but I feel that apex is why

barren rain
#

yeah, when bladestorm got introduced in wotlk it felt great to have something new like that even if it was clunky

rancid willow
#

Even hero talents felt super underwhelming

#

Slayer was just a bunch of “buffing the stuff you already have”

steel sluice
#

I mean I like slayer over col but that's because I do like blade storm over demo

rancid willow
#

Fair enough

#

Demo would be a lot of fun if it worked while moving

steel sluice
#

Now if they were 5% from each other across all content I would switch around all the time

Yaaa I mean you can kinda move now right? Just need ungodly amount of speeeeed

Arms mains will eventually replace the weapon, though the only raid weapons drop from late bosses and the vault is RNG. Unless you feel lucky, its generally recommended to go for a weapon early and recraft later.

At 262 atm and 2.57k io and still declined 999/1000 pugs

For 10s

latent moss
#

ye pugs moment

slow saddle
#

hmm

#

i just did a 10 NP as slayer arms

#

i gotta say

#

it flows well

latent moss
#

ure behind the curve so its oever

slow saddle
#

compared to collosus

latent moss
#

not hard

#

colo has no flow

#

its piano

slow saddle
#

i know 😄

#

u mean

#

a 5 yard old playing PIANO

latent moss
#

the best part about slayer

#

is u get to turn off ur brain

#

dont have to think about ravager aligning with stuff

#

dont have to think about how many targets is demo gonna hit

#

is the pack grouped

#

etc

slow saddle
#

yeah

#

ikr

#

i mean IF and i say IF

#

rav just auto came on when u pressed Either Avatar or WB

#

life would be infinitely better

latent moss
#

replace rav with cs does 5000% more damage

#

ez

proper atlas
#

Arms back for raiding or not enough, sry been gone

slow saddle

i mean

#

its great on 2 or 3 fights

#

Do u think arms will get a rework anytime soon?

latent moss
#

at this point

#

there is legit no way to know

#

weve been anticipating a rework since df

#

but it never came

#

so

flat willow
#

tbh reworking arms isn't easy, some people want off gcd rage dump and rivers of rage ( me ) some people want TOM (ew)

#

some people want to be rage starved and not be able to press any button (?????)

#

they call it "tactical playstyle"

proven gyro
hoary palm
#

DF season 1 pre rework was the right amount of rage

#

Still had to think about it a little but still had enough to dump it into ignore pain

#

Then they gave us infinite rage I didn’t like that

I'm looking for 20 apm game play

Including cooldowns?

#

jesus will you sleep by playing? 🤣

That would be one hell of unique Spec. Maybe blizzard could put 3.5 second cast timer on mortal strike

spring vale
#

I think flameshaper dev evoker is like 35 apm?

#

A lot of warrior players are old and miss pre legion I think

flat willow
#

I see people here complain every time focused rage is mentioned because " but think about all the apm we'd have "

#

not that focused rage would gcd lock us, it would do the opposite of that

#

people just want to play arms with 30 apm, for some reason

plucky fern
#

nobody wants 30 apm arms, wierd take

#

theres already a warrior spec existing for low apm enjoyers (prot)

kind thunder
#

high enough to not feel clunky, slow enough to not get carpal tunnel syndrome

sharp wyvern
#

prot has the highest apm of every spec what are you talking about

daring prairie
#

Arms juat needs to so 500k damage in one mortal atrike.

sharp wyvern
#

they dont want collosus be a good ST spec tho

#

so that dmg has to come from execute somehow

daring prairie
#

I don't mind if arms is slow. I just want it to hit hard as fuck. I wouldent care if it had limited to 0 aoe. Leave that to the mana classes

#

I just wanna bash something head with a rock.

daring prairie
#

Would u want your 30 apm to be like. A slow drip. Or do u want it to be bursty. With down time.

#

10 seconds on 10 seconds off kinda thang.

shadow ibex
#

and just maintain between windows

latent moss
#

cs on tactician

#

remove avatar

shadow ibex
#

yea that would make it work

latent moss
#

make arms fully play around cs

shadow ibex
#

gimme mop fury but with arms meaty big crits and wod class trinket

latent moss
#

and change tactician from rage cost spells to all spells to avoid spamming rend or slam or ww 40000 times in a row fishing

zenith hamlet
#

been away for bit more then a week. how is arms after the buffs. is it on par with fury in keys now?

latent moss
#

better imo

#

colossus that is

#

slayer idk doesnt feel good to me

#

aoe is quite a bit behind colo and st is not much better

#

even with the upcoming exe buffs i doubt slayer will see play over colo

#

colo is just absurd on aoe

winter knot
#

imo Slayer plays better but performs worse overall

latent moss
#

i would agree if bladestorm wasnt an unskippable cutscene

winter knot
#

but getting invited as an arms warrior into keys feels impossible in comparison to fury

latent moss
#

ye community perception of arms is that its an f tier spec

#

despite being a++

#

maybe s

#

not s actually nvm

#

devourer uhdk are hitlers

winter knot
#

A maybe A-

latent moss
#

a for sure

winter knot
#

the single target with col is still bad

latent moss
#

aoe more than makes up for it

winter knot
#

there are multiple speccs that have the same if not more utility with more aoe and more st

latent moss
#

if u get 2 adds on top of a boss ur st doubles

#

i havent played with a spec that beat me on overall yet

still fox
kind thunder
#

high rolling reaps on aoe with slayer does feel u with bliss

plucky fern
winter knot
still fox
#

ah switch when 10 sec timer run 👍🏻

latent moss
plucky fern
#

does it even matter if you are fury or arms for pugs

#

you aint getting invites

#

run your own key is the only way

#

or find a group

kind thunder
#

maybe im just gambling addict

plucky fern
#

then pretend im a decoration on st

latent moss
#

just have to high roll crits on ms

#

then st is ok

#

but if u low roll tactician and crits

plucky fern
#

well its more of a meme now
colo st is fine enough for keys
on the low end for sure
but not 'below tank'

latent moss
#

hoooooooly

plucky fern
#

if any funnel happens you are king anyway

latent moss

true

#

3t is insane

doubles ur prio dmg

olive nest

Seat council boss

#

Mmmmm

plucky fern
#

seat in general is perfect dungeon for arms i've been doing crazy numbers here

#

only last boss is st

#

if your tank pulls 1st boss with trash

thick kelp
#

crazy how our one tar damage goes from like 72k to 140k if the boss has 2 adds

olive nest
#

Lmao so true

latent moss
#

i wonder how much of that is tierset

olive nest
#

Are we the funnel spec now!? chatting

latent moss
#

cm from cleave is huge fob is huge etc

#

buh how huge is tierset

#

cause if we lust

#

i legit keep cs up on prio target until cs comes off cd again

#

its insane

plucky fern
#

10 seat, i dont even have tierset yet

olive nest
latent moss
#

is there a way to see how much dmg aug is stealing without logs

#

ig not

#

if it wasnt doable with details its not doable with this

thick kelp
#

in logs u can filter

latent moss
#

doo hickey damage meter

#

ye but i dont log anything xdd

thick kelp
#

Not doable in details

olive nest
#

Functioning details is probably my most missed addon

latent moss
#

its 100% my most missed addon

#

was u can replace with addons for the most part

#

but details man

#

i miss it so much

carmine iris
#

is it fine to just macro cs with avatar?

olive nest
#

I wouldn’t

dense nimbus
#

dead channel now days? XD

olive nest
#

Their is times where you can cs/demolish a pack between Ava cd

carmine iris
#

but couldnt i just press macro again for only 1 of them if they are desynched?

olive nest
#

Oh I mean yeah sure if you track them separately in some way

hoary palm
#

what about fatty legion mortal strikes

#

with focused rage

#

done with my MS tickling

finite spire
#

we mathed out the ST buff yet?

torpid acorn
#

my napkin math is around 3,1%

#

i think its not enough tho. if arms is a spec that has to give up ST or AOE when building its talent tree i think it should have a way better ST.
Also people should not forget that nerfing 30% and then buffing 10% and 20% doesnt mean its back where it started.
Also the spec is completly unplayable without a shaman

stable fiber
#

the spec is fine

wide needle
#

Really I don't want 20 apm but gcd spec are tiring to play a bit

stable fiber
#

wdym gcd spec

torpid acorn
#

i dont know man. ive been maining arms for more than a decade and its just not clicking. doesnt feel strong out of thrash in M+. its not clicking with me. no identity, rage starved. no benefit in properly managing rage, just punishing if you don't. its frustrating

torn rivet
#

agreed

#

the rage starving is what gets me the most

hallow quail
timber drift
#

arms buffs enough to out perform fury on reset? Pog

hallow quail
#

Additionally they do have some fights in raid and pulls in mythic they are currently doing better than fury on

torn rivet
#

aint no way 3% got them much closer

#

if you mean arms got a spit's distance closer to fury sure but not "much" closer

hallow quail
#

Emergency Arms Buffs
Must be my birthday or something. Overall comes out to ~6-7% in single target and ~4-5% in higher multitarget, which should at least make Arms more competitive with Fury.
https://www.wowhead.com/news/arms-warrior-buffs-and-guardian-druid-nerfs-more-last-minute-class-tuning-380923

Arms

  • Mortal Strike damage increased by 12%.
  • Execute damage increased by 15%.
  • Cleave damage reduced by 10%.
#

This is what I was mis quoting

crimson furnace
#

What’s the easier rotation fury or arms? Not the best damage I just want to know the easier rotation. Arms and fury are an off spec for me so I’d like to invest my time to pick up on the easier to succeed over the more damage.

torpid acorn
# hallow quail For me switching to frost dk mid TWW I realized how goofy our rotation was playi...

thats happening for me this season. Frost DK, altho not that strong, has a really well designed rotation, CD management with pilar mark breath and wyrm. trying to align them every 45sec and 1:30min. making breath last longer, managing exterminate to proc it 5x during cds.. EPW and procs + resource management. punishing when done bad, but extremely rewarding if done well.
Im also enjoying fury for the first time since for ever.
Arms is goofy af atm

hallow quail
#

I meant more competitive than much closer sorry

hallow quail
plucky fern
#

you can ask 'whats easier arms of fury' any expansion any patch
answer is the same

#

i dont remember a single time fury wasnt easier than arms

dim basalt
#

Theyre equally simple

crimson furnace
#

Ok thanks

kind thunder
#

fury is just harder on the wrists

hallow quail
# kind thunder fury is just harder on the wrists

The thane build really isn’t too bad, as someone who has issues with the slayer fury build in TWW hurting too much, thane fury has been mostly okay for me even with extended play times. I think having to mash those raging blows with no break was what was doing it

crimson furnace
#

I kinda miss the days of just clicking sweeping strikes and going into a large mob and bladestorming.

plucky fern
#

you can kinda do this right now with slayer arms
bs is finally doing some damage

sharp goblet

#

Slayer Arms is pretty fun to play in dungeons, I like it, less turning plates than Colossus

sharp goblet
#

i just wish ravager and rend weren't a thing

#

but more so ravager, it's so annoyingly desynced with everything

soft dew
#

Yeah I don't like ravager as a button

torn rivet
#

ravager is a stupid ability

soft dew
#

If it were like protection's, why not

torn rivet
#

people complain "oh bladestorm is so fun man, as if watching a 3s cinematic on loop"

Yeah, well at least it feels cool.

pine fable
#

it shoul be included in anger management lol so its always synced with avatar

sharp goblet
#

bladestorm also feels bad to me 🤷‍♂️ I much prefer Avatar (on fury)

soft dew
#

It's pretty short on fury

#

But I get your point

#

I never understood the whole concept of slayer having better ST and having to play Bladestorm

#

It's just weird to use in ST

torn rivet
#

imagine if colossus stacks worked on bladestorm to the point where instead of affecting demolish it would affect bladestorm

#

and demolish removed from the game

sharp goblet
#

at least there's some interplay, execute to reduce bladestorm cd, it still desyncs but cdr makes it feel better

soft dew
#

Yeah

sharp goblet
#

i felt good pressing demolish tbh, though the tank (friend) trolled me every time 😅

soft dew
#

I like colo and Demolish, just not having 1000 buttons to press and track

sharp goblet
#

i wonder what the overall hardest hitting ability is across all specs

#

%scaling wise

pine fable
#

i wish it was slam /s

ashen trout
#

did any chads calculate the % of this buff for ST/multi on tuesday?

steep osprey
sharp goblet
#

i'm thinking maybe glacial spike

steep osprey
#

Devourer one?

#

Crashing Star

sharp goblet
#

i think it's not that high baseline but dmg % stacks make it hit super hard; might be the hardest hitting one in actual numbers, but was wondering about the cooeficient

steep osprey
#

I see

#

The survival CD?

#

I forgot its name

sharp goblet
#

something of the pack leader?

steep osprey
#

No

#

It's a new ability

gentle gyro
#

Is it just me or Demolish is complete dogshit in midnight?

steep osprey
#

It's not complete dogshit but it's worse than it was in TWW

old glacier
#

Did chimaerus as arms it was slightly sad.

steep osprey
#

And that's mainly due to Cleave just doing insane amounts of damage

#

If you want a demolish buff

#

They'd have to nerf Cleave

So it's boar

does anybody have a nice bcdm profile?

It's just that cleave does insane damage

ig demo is the biggest on st then?

slow saddle
#

Who wouldda thought

latent moss
#

2350

steep osprey
#

Cleave really skews the perception of Demolish

latent moss
#

or do you only count last hit

sharp goblet
#

theoretically reapers mark is the hardest scaler for a single hit - goes up to like 2k% with max (40) stacks

but yea demo seems to win on ST overall (not accounting for other buffs like collapsing star stacking)

steep osprey
#

I like how devourer plays

#

Theoretically

#

Haven't tried it

latent moss
#

demo has what 50% from cm 20% from ava and potentially 50% from cs

#

in terms of buffing it with all cds

#

50% from cs is nuts tho

#

need to somehow have 5 stacks of apex tho xd

sharp goblet
#

feels real good to smack that Nexus Point boss during dmg phase

#

for like a million

steep osprey

It would be nice if Demolish was more frequent

#

But alas

latent moss

in aoe it is

We gotta stop this ST sucks thing

#

It isn't shit anymore

latent moss

depends who you compare it to

I meean

but its not an issue

and wont be as long as our aoe stays this absurd

which it seems like it will

slow saddle
#

U catch badluck i compete with.monk tank

#

Our rage issues are real no shammie

steep osprey
#

I don't think so

latent moss
#

prio sd (which you should anyway as its a dps increase)

#

and its not bad

latent moss
#

ye or the 3t seat boss

#

arms 3t is just unreal rn

slow saddle

sharp goblet
#

i beat him on cleave too, though not sure I should

slow saddle
#

I wonder why😅

steep osprey

Arms is no longer a 2 target spec

latent moss

colo 2t is very good

#

its just not the 2t champion they promised us arms will be

slow saddle
#

Yes but at 3 all gets activated

latent moss
#

the damage increase from going from 1t to 2t is insane

as colo

ur dmg more than doubles iirc

so ig gaze jsut sucks for arms

What does solar flare do

like 50% uptime on 200 something crit

ravager is ur biggest cd besides juiced cs from apex

To ease up on all these stuns etc

You don't need as much interrupts either

u need to pull the entire dungeon man

and last pull is so kanker

i don't wanna play fury because it's mass aoe very often

#

and as fury u just rampage and tb

latent moss
#

i dont wanna play fury cause its a boring ass spec

u spam cleave on opener

cleave atleast hits for 300k

#

and you feel yourself going up on details

#

you dont feel that shit on fury all im saying

latent moss
#

idk i think with colo they nailed aoe minus some cbt stuff like rend upkeep and ravager not syncing with anything

#

i like the flow of cleave -> ms -> op -> cleave -> op -> ms -> cleave

sharp goblet
#

using cleave on single target is yikes tho

latent moss
#

rejoice

its dead

#

besides during ravager

yes it all goes back to ravager

that one will be hard to kill

#

If rav was passive on ava would be win tbh

steep osprey
#

When you press avatar

sharp goblet
#

ye

latent moss
#

at that point just put mbg on ava

steep osprey
#

But they should nerf the Cleave damage bonus

#

Since it's more frequent

slow saddle
#

Ofc

#

Tune accordingly

latent moss
#

ye and thats my issue

#

u would have to reduce the impact of mbg

slow saddle
#

I mean no

latent moss
#

the multiplier i mean

slow saddle
#

U could also nerf cleave

sharp goblet
#

actually nvm i just realized i hate pressing slam more than cleave on ST

slam is dead too

#

u just exe
