minor gust
#

It's prob most of our funnel strength

#
  • fob
fresh spire
#

its like a 15% tier set or some shit, its going to hurt losing it, hurting slayer with unhinged more so

latent moss
#

nah

#

i dont think its most of our funnel

chilly island
#

What is the actual gain from the Apex talents in AoE?

latent moss
#

for slayer maybe

#

a lot idk exactly

fresh spire
#

i dunno having a 35% amp up on your main target for extended periods is nuts

steep osprey
minor gust
#

Idk exactly either but it's what let's our CS have almost 100% uptome

#

So I feel like it's a lot of our funnel power

fresh spire
#

think most of last expansion arms and fury sets was like 7% and below

latent moss
#

man i need guidon

fresh spire
#

only S3 fury had an actual tier and arms had a giga one too

latent moss
#

arms still has s3 tier kinda

#

xdd

fresh spire
#

s3 colossus set started at like 21% or somet shit remember

latent moss
#

just 230445093 times weaker

#

cut to the bone

#

15%

smoky kayak
#

we'll have to wait and see what they do, but 12.1 is still a long ways off anyway

minor gust
latent moss
#

i hope it does make its way into the spec

fresh spire
#

ok so if we dont have deep wounds

#

its worth to slam > execute

smoky kayak
#

saw that one coming lol

latent moss
#

holy thank god

#

really good changes i cant lie

fresh spire
#

need to check how it reacts to CT

#

15 execute lines incoming again sorry not sorry

latent moss
#

gg

thick kelp
#

one line per execute talent to check if execute is worth pressing at what point

latent moss
#

sarri apl ahh

fresh spire
#

Walhe

#

its turning out exactly how i said in dms

#

with that prio 😄

minor gust
fresh spire
#

👀

#

still worth to execute when rage capping but other wise slam jam

latent moss
#

honestly

#

healthy prio

#

exe as rage dump

#

is good

fresh spire
#

current bis st for colossus

minor gust
#

Which still won't be often

fresh spire
#

How it ends up in .5

minor gust
#

Cuz rage lol

latent moss
#

im very happy cause im prolly not playing with skyfury all of this sesaon

latent moss
#

should be 170k+

smoky kayak
nova marsh
#

I get so many in keys

warm fog
#

Resto still feels pretty popular

smoky kayak
#

idk, they are for me

#

maybe they're just avoiding me so I won't play Arms keks

steep osprey
minor gust
lone raft
#

bismallah

#

can we get the tldr changes upcoming for my smooth brain

minor gust
#

Positive

smoky kayak
#

though I've been forced into tanking keys lately, and that definitely stinks! madge

minor gust
steep osprey
#

Still?

#

wasn't ascendance nerfed

#

like mega nerfed

minor gust
#

Yup

manic pasture
#

Is the slayer M+ talents from wowhead good for m+?

smoky kayak
livid shadow
lunar idol
#

Hey! Coming from Fury, I'm struggling a bit learning the Arms rotation. How did you guys approach it? Did you grind it out in lower keys first, use a target dummy routine, or something else entirely? Always open to tips, cheers!

manic pasture
livid shadow
#

He was top for awhile as slayer buddy must of passed him just before murkok rescanned

minor gust
#

Both are good

#

You can play both Colo and slayer and do well

#

Play what's fun

sharp goblet
warm fog
#

Arms has actual funnel and benefits from adds being stacked on boss

tropic crest
#

A very little funnel, but it exist

tropic crest
topaz python
#

is there any addon show trinket duration and cd on screen?

minor gust
nova marsh
#

I'm sure this has been asked a thousand times

#

But do we have SR tracker

topaz python
nova marsh
#

Oh

#

Then idk. I've been using arc since pre patch

topaz python
#

can i see your UI? i want UI to look more blizzard like and BCDM makes it look like i'm using elvui which i hate

nova marsh
#

Mine is kinda fucked rn cuz I'm still setting up warr

topaz python
#

gotta give arc a try maybe, thanks

nova marsh
#

I did it kinda weird

#

because I like it being hidden if it's off CD

#

Might not work for you

#

But arc is very customizable, so you can just play with it

noble moth
#

Why are high ranking Arms M+ers running Slayer?

nova marsh
#

And also isn't tank reliant like colo is

noble moth
#

Understood, thank you

nova marsh
#

also it has better ST

noble moth
#

Heard

stable fiber
#

i only died if he died

#

tank died = i died

warm fog
minor gust
sharp goblet
#

it is kinda funny how you do more than double damage with 2 targets

latent moss
#

cant know how good something is unless u try it ye

#

it has potential cause it does good st

sharp goblet
#

for a few more weeks 🙁

latent moss
#

colo gonna go crazy in .5

#

ss up both ms crit

#

20s cdr on demo

#

xdd

slow saddle
#

Isnt it

#

5 sec ?

latent moss
#

1 stack = 5s

wind hatch
#

crit + ss

latent moss
#

if both crit with ss

#

its 10+10

slow saddle
#

It was 2 npw r

sharp goblet
#

it's actually gonna suck

slow saddle
#

And cleave is?

sharp goblet
#

demoing 3 times a pack

latent moss
#

its 2 now ye

#

cleave is 1 with 3 mobs

slow saddle
#

So cleave would 5sec of demo per?

latent moss
#

ye

slow saddle
#

Hmm

latent moss
#

ms is 5/10 depending on crit

slow saddle
#

We gonna demo a lot

latent moss
#

might be a ms on cd even in aoe angle

#

for cdr

slow saddle
#

So much haste!

latent moss
#

ye guidon gonna be even crazier

slow saddle
#

I mean its deffo ms>op

wind hatch
latent moss
#

robot will tell us

#

ye its cleave>ms still

#

prolly because it doesnt actually matter much

#

both are kinda always on cd

#

apart from crushing combo windows

naive steeple
#

Hey guys, can someone answer a question for me? With Slayer's arms, "reap the storm" says that when you hit 3 or more targets with a mortal strike, there's a chance to proc But the mortal strike only hits two targets with sweeping strike, how does it hit 3 or more targets?

slow saddle
#

Sorry but it does not

wind hatch
slow saddle
#

Ms 1 cleave 3

wind hatch
#

looking at the wording I see how it can be a little confusing lol

naive steeple
#

So maybe it's a translation error? In Portuguese it says that a mortal strike or cleave hits 3 or more

slow saddle
#

Exactly

#

Either a mortal strike

#

Or cleave hits 3

#

Its terrible wording

slow saddle
naive steeple
#

What makes it even more confusing is that Mortal Strike almost never procs, but Cleave does.

halcyon hull
#

Slayer or Colossus for keys, friends?

median crag
#

COLO FOR BIG AOE BOSS BAD
SLAYER FOR ALL ROUND GOODNESS

Much appreciated.

sacred summit
#

hey guys, is arms better for keys (12+) now than fury?

hazy pumice
#

no

sacred summit
#

havent been closely keeping up with the class changes so far

#

i think i see more arms in the top leaderboards than fury tho

hazy pumice
#

clap nerf is not live

#

not yet

sacred summit
#

like +18s and stuff

wind hatch
thick kelp
#

arms was always better for keys

#

stop the fury cope

wind hatch
#

tww s3 was kinda ass man

sacred summit
sacred summit
sacred summit
thick kelp
#

ok but like

#

in midnight

hazy pumice
#

propably we will see

wind hatch
sacred summit
wind hatch
#

yeah with fervor of battle

#

+50% damage now

sacred summit
#

interesting

wind hatch
#

FoB heroic strikes are pretty big

thick kelp
#

arms just smokes fury in every key this season

#

since now and before

minor gust
#

Tier + fob + apex = arms funnel

sacred summit
#

been playing fury this season (not a long time warrior player) and going against uncapped damage mfs in keys is just feelsbadman

#

esp coming from mage/ret lul

thick kelp
#

you wont feel the tar cap on colo arms

sacred summit
#

been debating if i wanna try arms or just reroll unholy

wind hatch
#

thats why Armsowns

tulip harness
#

do i use cleave on st after colossus?

sacred summit
#

why are they nerfing thunderclap tho
if those .5 changes go live

thick kelp
sacred summit
thick kelp
sacred summit
#

is arms viable in the raid currently or am i soft inting if i dont play fury atm

thick kelp
#

depends whats your term of viable

#

I am myffic progging on arms

#

and will be the entire tier

sacred summit
#

which will do more damage in raid heroic/mythic

#

on avg rn

thick kelp
#

Fury some fights, arms other fights

#

if you want to play best you swap fight by fihgt basis

sacred summit
#

cuz i dont think wcl is too accurate rn with the weekly buffs to arms right

sharp goblet
#

so might as well play normally

sacred summit
#

maybe it is now since its friday and i can just look back at a weeks worth of data at 95th percentile

sacred summit
sharp goblet
#

I’m saying play normally with more targets as well, it’s more fun and the diff is actually extremely small (I thought it was much bigger)

sacred summit
#

interesting. arms is doing quite a bit better in heroic than fury is but fury is doing a little bit better in mythic (95th percentile, 1 week data, all bosses)

#

what the helly

thick kelp
#

Sort by boss dam

#

arms pads on like 6 of the fights lol

#

for parses

#

its boss damage is abysmal

sacred summit
minor gust
#

Ethical Colo heroic parses

sacred summit
#

its the other way around

deft rune
#

np

thick kelp
thorn stream
#

3 bosses at once on one fight xeos

#

furys also sending rek and odyns on add spawn doesnt help

#

(im memeing, dont get at me fury mains)

bronze nest
candid pecan
#

dmg done to bosses

toxic socket
#

i cant see anything.. but im told arms are getting more buffs? is this true or am i getting lied to

sacred summit
#

theyre kinda neck and neck in damage overall in mythic

#

and in heroic arms leads fury

#

lmao is arms just better now

novel cloud
#

Time to go arms

warm fog
#

Now do it for mythic

#

Imperator is odd, not sure why both warriors are almost dead last

willow lance
sacred summit
sharp tendon
#

how is arms now in m + see they are A tier now even ebove furry is it rly that good again ,

sacred summit
sacred summit
sharp tendon
#

sub creation

#

archon now

worn knoll
#

Also the adds are anti-sweeping strikes

umbral badger
# sacred summit

trust me though, this is literally gonna be boosted a lot by arms on vanguard

#

arms is not ahead of fury if not for vanguard boss

stable fiber
#

idk it might be closer then you think

#

better boss dam on dragons

#

(mythic)

#

heroic is fake

#

its close on voracius

#

the biggest issue for both specs is that one has to sacrifice a shit ton of st to do aoe and the other has to use cds when cleave is happening, and often times the cleave isnt on top of the both

#

dont think either spec has bad boss damage if they arent hitting adds

tiny sable
#

arms stay winning

sacred summit
tiny sable
sacred summit
#

looking at 95th percentilefor the past week

stable fiber
#

yeah its mostly boss dependant

#

arms actually very good boss damage on nexus king, but thats only because they are playing slayer and only hitting boss

#

im sure if fury did the same thing it would be higher

sacred summit
#

like vorasius, saladhar, and beloren arms beats fury by a lot
and aversian, twin drakes, chimaerus, and midnight falls fury leads

sacred summit
stable fiber
#

ic

sacred summit
#

i currently play fury but im tryna gauge if its worth it to learn arms and slowly transition over by .5 patch

stable fiber
#

it is

sacred summit
#

im not a longtime warrior main so

stable fiber
#

the spec is good on a lot of these fights

sacred summit
# stable fiber it is

i mean shit looks bleak for MT fury in .5 patch but who knows if that will go live as is or if there will be other buffs to compensate

umbral badger
#

so even in the good bosses they are not really good i think

#

i mgiht be wrong i don't remember

stable fiber
#

behind unholy

#

which is the god boss damage spec

warm fog
#

You do ideally want some gear changes between the two but it’s not too bad

sacred summit
#

ive only played arms in like.... bfa? or someshit and i hated having to track my AA. sitting there and waiting for my guy to AA so i can spend rage was turbo ass

stable fiber
#

arms is top half on voracius

#

if its a boss that you can reliably play slayer on and its good arms isnt bad

#

its just only like 2 of those exist

#

which is the issue

umbral badger
#

but the sampel is very small

#

for warriors

stable fiber
#

yeha prob not enough

#

i also griefed my voracius arms kill

#

did 0 dps

#

fucked the opener up

#

xdd

umbral badger
#

that being said at least on second know we know it's the case that warriors are 20k or 25k less on boss dmg

sacred summit
umbral badger
#

as i remember fish saying 'all warrior still needs help"

#

no no i am striclty talking about boss dmg

#

not overall

sacred summit
#

ah gotcha

umbral badger
#

as in filtering by damage to bosses

stable fiber
#

i believe this kind of shit happened in nerubar also

#

using cds on adds instead of boss led to boss damage looking bad

#

then it was like highest boss damage on kyveza if you exclude shamans

umbral badger
sacred summit
umbral badger
#

acutally if you look mythic first boss it's the same problem

steep osprey
#

Fury warrior boss damage always looks worse than it actually is because of this

umbral badger
#

almost most warriors are strictly doing boss dmg or add dmg

stable fiber
#

its very prominent on first boss

umbral badger
#

no in between

sacred summit
umbral badger
#

in fact the top dps arms on first boss mythic has 40k boss dps which is same as his blood dk xd

stable fiber
#

gulp

steep osprey
#

There are specs that do mid AOE so they have to just attack boss

#

Those are going to do great boss damage

stable fiber
#

ok sweet that isnt me

#

im not rank 1 on first boss anymore

#

saved

#

(i did 47k dps to boss xdd)

vast helm
#

need more rage

stable fiber
#

hmm

sacred summit
#

how reliant is arms on skyfury? is it like u dont go arms in keys without a shammy level reliant?

stable fiber
#

10% overall

#

without a shaman

#

so a lot of dps

icy atlas
#

I hate it so much lol

sacred summit
#

do i still need to track me autoattacks

stable fiber
#

i mean you can

#

charge weaving makes a hard spec even harder

#

and my way of playing is more thinking = less dps

latent moss
#

cause u cant track the swing timer

sacred summit
#

im asking if its kinda required cuz i remember it lowkey was required back in bfa (the one time i tried arms)

stable fiber
#

its not required

sacred summit
stable fiber
#

but it is a dps increase

latent moss
#

in m+ without skyfury

#

i charge weave on cd in execute

#

as both slayer and colo

sacred summit
#

is arms considered harder than fury

latent moss
#

definitely

stable fiber
#

arms is probably the hardest dps spec in the game

latent moss
#

a lot more room for error

stable fiber
#

by a mile

latent moss
#

fury u just send send send

latent moss
#

but now i can see it

#

tbf colo was never simple

sacred summit
#

the fuck u meannn

stable fiber
#

colo arms atleast

#

think slayer is a lot easier

latent moss
#

ye

stable fiber
#

idfk i dont want to play that cringe ass hero talent

sacred summit
#

dont u have to use both colo and slayer

#

for diff encounters and raids/keys and whatnot

stable fiber
#

you can

#

which i have

#

ive played all 4 specs/hero talents in raid

#

probably a equal amount

latent moss
#

i must say after doing a few 17s as slayer

#

i dont like it at all

#

idk

stable fiber
#

it feels even worse in st

latent moss
#

but apparently im weird for liking colo so

stable fiber
#

you just have no buttons i swear

sacred summit
latent moss
#

i did some slayer keys to see how it does

icy atlas
#

On the flip side, Slayer Arms is some of the most fun I had in keys

sacred summit
#

how long til .5 patch again

latent moss
icy atlas
#

Just wish the rage gen was fixed

latent moss
#

i randomly pull 85k on last boss magisters

#

then 60k next time

#

like

#

???

stable fiber
#

i mean my voracius kill

#

i think i deadass had like 7 sd procs the whole fight

latent moss
#

on the 60k one i get 0 sd in exe and im just staring at the boss

stable fiber
#

its so shit

latent moss
#

ye

#

everything feels like a wet noodle

#

but ure somehow doing damage

#

???

#

idk i dont like

tacit crystal
#

its okay

stable fiber
#

yeah i checked

tacit crystal
#

colo saved with cdr change

#

hi 57

stable fiber
#

i had 10 execute casts in 3:30 before execute

#

that is some shit

latent moss
#

xddd

#

i hope ravager perishes in. 5

stable fiber
#

1 execute every 21 seconds

#

fuck you

latent moss
#

sd hero talent btw

stable fiber
#

im just sitting there

#

not hitting the boss because execute didnt proc

#

shit hero talent

latent moss
#

no blord makes it even worse

#

cause u just resort to slamming

icy atlas
#

Maybe if Arms wasn’t so reliant on RNG resets

latent moss
#

19 times in a row

#

i prefer pooling

#

than pressing slam

#

especially as slayee

#

slayer

stable fiber
#

SD needs

#

a proc increase

#

or slayer strikes

latent moss
#

s3 slayer set

#

2p

#

why is it not

#

on the slayer tree

#

hello blizzard?

stable fiber
#

0 - 3:40 only 10 executes

#

gonna remember that

#

now let me check fury on 1st boss manaforge omega

#

32 casts

#

LMFAO

#

not real

worn knoll
#

I'd love it if they gave us a talent that deletes Slam and replaces it with an autoattack proc of some sort. They did it for Devastate on prot warr and Crustrike on retadin, i dont see why they cant do the same for arms.

#

i hate pressing this button so damn much

stable fiber
#

i dont mind slam much as long as i dont push it 3x or 2x in a row

#

which happens quite often as slayer in st

worn knoll
#

that is exactly why I hate it so much

stable fiber
#

idk they could just make sd proc more and it fixes rage issues AND makes the spec flow more fluently

worn knoll
#

having all 3 GCDs in a single MS cooldown window be slams just feels horrid

stable fiber
#

2 birds 1 stone or however the saying goes

icy atlas
#

But Blizzard for some reason really wants Arms to be this slow hitting spec

stable fiber
#

its not even hard hitting

#

avg ms is like 70k damage

icy atlas
#

Yeah, couldn’t even get that right 🙄

stable fiber
#

avg bloodbath is like 70k also

vast helm
#

Arms was a Execute spec

stable fiber
#

its still pretty good in execute now

#

prob better then fury

steep osprey
raw sapphire
#

why are you not able to die by the sword ick and krick if its melee hits?

stable fiber
#

i do it all the time

raw sapphire
#

i guess im dumb then just got double meleed through it

stable fiber
#

you need to backpedal

#

cant face away

#

i think

vast helm
#

i guess no blue post today huh?

stable fiber
#

idk if they changed the button from the mop version

vagrant hull
#

I decided to review the rotation guides, two I just read both leave out Heroic Strike entirely for multitarget situations. Is that correct?

icy atlas
#

It’s more or less the same

steep osprey
stable fiber
#

cleave on 3t auto procs heroic strike

daring vine
steep osprey
stable fiber
#

which in turn makes it hit 50% harder

latent moss
vagrant hull
#

OH

latent moss
#

like slayer never felt like arms to me idk how to explain it

vagrant hull
#

that's why it freaking dissappears when I hit cleave

latent moss
#

it feels way too much like fury

vagrant hull
#

I thought I was taking crazy pills

latent moss
#

ye u never hs on aoe

#

fob increases slam damage by 50%

#

including hs

icy atlas
#

Idk, Slayer always felt closer to Cata/MoP era Arms for me. Probably why I enjoy it most

wind hatch
stable fiber
#

but i HATE

#

slayer

#

mop is more about pooling for cs windows

#

which is pretty fun

icy atlas
#

Yeah, and it felt a bit more Freeform in a way. As long as you can hit 5 gcds in a smash window. Very nice flow

stable fiber
#

stopped playing it though because the spec literally only exists for skull banner

#

doesnt do any damage

icy atlas
#

No burst damage anyway

#

Sounds familiar

stable fiber
#

its good in execute with reck

#

the tier set makes reck 100% crit chance which goes crazy in execute but pre execute you dont exist

stable fiber
#

cinema

charred flicker
#

Does our apex talent work with cleave too?

icy atlas
#

Do something to fix the rage gen

latent moss
#

do nothing for slayer so i can just play colo everywhere

stable fiber
tidal igloo
#

if i have sweeping strikes up but collosus smash comes up with or without avatar should i still hit it on cd and lose w/e is left of sweeping?

stable fiber
#

and cleave makes hs proc as well

stable fiber
#

if you are going into a pack with both cs and demolish then yes you do

#

if its the end of a pack and mobs are gonna die then i would hold

tidal igloo
#

even if at the end it would leave me with no sweeping strikes to cast once the 12 from cs is done?

#

that seems super unlikely

#

but just in case

stable fiber
#

its not worth it to send both cds on 20% hp mobs

#

because then you do no damage on the next pull

#

oh yeah thats another important part of arms is managing sweep

vagrant hull
#

Anyone have a good build that takes Champ Spear? I know its not meta but I just enjoy the talent, would use it in M+ if it isn't that big of a dps hit

stable fiber
#

another layer of pain

stable fiber
vagrant hull
#

That was my initial thought

stable fiber
#

which is a pretty big dps loss but

#

if you want spear then go play spear

#

nobody stopping you but yourself

vagrant hull
#

correct, I just like it so I'm going to give it a go

old glacier
#

Lots of people playing arms on belo'ren.

stable fiber
#

it owns the egg if you get like 5 sd procs on it

icy atlas
#

Is it starting to outpace Slayer Fury or what?

stable fiber
#

which is rare but can happen

stable fiber
#

sudden death

stable fiber
tidal igloo
#

lmao thanks

stable fiber
#

it has burst but you need good luck

#

or else you have no burst lmfao

#

i fucking hate this hero talent

#

the r1 beloren had 9 sudden death procs in 50 seconds meanwhile i only have 10 in 210 seconds

#

FMCL

naive steeple
#

Hey guys, I'm starting to play Arms, but I'm a bit confused about how to hit with AoE, Should I buff the cleave with 3 sweeping attacks or spam the cleave until I can't anymore?

icy atlas
#

Every 6 seconds rend does damage, get a Sudden Death proc? Idk lol

stable fiber
#

thats like execute every 4 gcds

#

think if they 1.5x the proc rate of sd its aight

icy atlas
#

Threw something out there. Because I also figure if they want us to hit rend it should do something useful

stable fiber
#

i mean its not the worst

#

every 6 seconds might be too often

icy atlas
#

Probably. I look back at Cata Arms where Rend gave Overpower procs, which was my line of thinking. Wishful thinking lol

tacit crystal
#

are they playing colo or slayer for belo

#

@stable fiber

stable fiber
#

depends on what you need more of

#

heroic most people are slayer though

#

slayer good egg damage in the intermission (essentally boss damage), colo good p1 add damage and egg damage on adds that need to die

tacit crystal
#

i feel slayer too inconsistent no?

#

to be in

#

over slurry

stable fiber
#

yeah its pretty inconsistent

shut token
#

Hello, I use this macro #showtooltip
/use [known:Heroic Strike] Heroic Strike; Overpower but sometimes when i join arena or dungeon it breaks and says "spell not learned" and i have to relog to fix it. Is it possible to write this macro in another way or does anyone know why it breaks?

tacit crystal
#

might just be a press slam angle if it breaks everytime

shut token
#

it doesn´t break everytime just sometimes

river ridge
#

Is there a reason you need that macro?

toxic surge
#

Hey, does anyone know how far behind is Halaazi enchant vs Rindorei? for single / low target cleaves

river ridge
shut token
#

so would really love if it could work 100%

river ridge
#

Sounds like a press Slam angle if you don't want it to break =/

shut token
river ridge
#

Not within Blizzard's ToS.

toxic surge
#

Just for information, the lowish dmg tooltip is not a mistake right?

shut token
river ridge
river ridge
toxic surge
#

yeah hmmm looks a bit weak just eye-vibing on it

tacit crystal
#

just ask robot

toxic surge
#

any chance if it interacts with Bloodborne talent or Fury's bleeds buff

wind hatch
#

it's only really worth thinking about against 2 targets

river ridge
toxic surge
#

got it, thanks

royal estuary
#

Hi guys, how can I get heroic strike to be visible when I get it on cooldown manager?

Track Slam it'll show up on the CDM

#

Its kinda stinky to track it that way, but sadly thats what Blizz gave us

tropic tiger
smoky kayak
#

easy fix is just to reload or relog before you start each dungeon, which is a little annoying but not exactly strenuous

stuck niche
#

noob question, I'm new to arms. In aoe do we press slam when we get a heroic strike proc or do we just cleave instead?

river ridge
#

Cleave all day baby

stuck niche
#

cool thanks

river ridge
#

Fervor for Battle should cast Heroic Strike when its proced for you.

#

Two target you'll have to press it manually tho

neon flicker
#

Sup guys, when we got the 3 free cleave, do we send them like this or at 3stacks ?

sand totem
#

Send em immediately

#

Get cleave back on CD

neon flicker
#

K, thanks bcs i was wondering how to use them

leaden ice
#

I saw a ping here and now it's gone monkahmm

whole kettle
#

I'm looking at liquidarmory and see that they're not taking the 4th apex talent on slayer for raid or m+

#

I'm reading it now, it does seem kinda weak

nova marsh
#

Don't we get like

#

average 3 HS procs between CS

whole kettle
#

They take Battlelord instead for ST and overpowering finish in m+

#

for slayer anyway

rare kite
whole kettle
#

Ah. It says updated Apr 1st but I don't know if liquid is even running slayer arms to update it

nova marsh
#

No arms buffs

nova marsh
maiden moat
#

i realy thought they buffing fury single target 🙁

whole kettle
#

I'm not sure if liquidarmory pulls just from their raiders in prog, guess I should look into it more

nova marsh
#

Tbh

#

I'd trust wowhead before trusting what high end raiders do

novel palm
nova marsh
#

basically about as present as I thought

#

I thought liquid was just running prot for shout

rigid ravine
#

okay this spec is more fun in keys ngl

leaden ice
#

I only don't like the pure single target damage, but you constantly have damage in bigger pulls

torpid acorn
#

Good news guys

leaden ice
#

Feels good

torpid acorn
#

it seems that blizzard knows how to actually buff specs

#

now we just wait for arms turn

leaden ice
nova marsh
#

who wants to bet

#

we don't get buffed cuz of vanguard

torpid acorn
#

i dont

soft dew
#

No Arms st tuning, I guess they feel like it's enough LOL

torpid acorn
#

Im checking damage to bosses 95 percentil. arms is above fury in every boss. by a lot. like.. a LOT

#

fury bottom 3 every fight

near ice
#

its crazy how they think we do single target dmg

torpid acorn
#

did not expected this

soft dew
#

But yeah warriors ST is pretty poor anyway

torpid acorn
#

that graph is vorasius.. not much of a padding fight IMO. arms seems to be doing well.
Im simming 88.8k on my fury and 83k on arms. i was not expecting that data

soft dew
#

Yeah sims are better for fury than arms in ST

stable fiber
near ice
#

execute dmg is very good

#

this is 35% --> boss dead on one of the logs

nova marsh
#

Oh wow

soft dew
#

Yeah guess 20% did help on somefights

Outlaw main

soft dew
#

Rogues deserve some love

#

They were ignored for most patches

regal wharf
#

Bro we got a nerf in aoe for no reason deadge

soft dew
#

Oh wtf

#

So they up you overall but nerf your aoe

#

Sounds good

nova marsh
#

Yeah

#

I apparently picked a good time to level warr

soft dew
#

Arms is good in keys

nova marsh
#

I haven't had a terrible time as outlaw

#

but I do have to say that blizzard is trolling again

#

I stg they can't tune in S1s anymore

soft dew
#

I feel like melees aren't in a great spot this time around

nova marsh
#

I mean yeah

#

this is also true, melee in general is very screwed currently

#

I feel like we've been here before

#

Like.,...several times

#

We've hit a point where most of the melee roaster is screwed by both mechanics and tuning which just feels bad

leaden ice
nova marsh
#

Yeah I just never liked ranged

#

Playing around uptime will always be more fun then just

#

...Cast, use whatever instas you get, spam one button half the time

soft dew
#

Only ranged I like is Ele shaman

#

But I'm a melee player through and through

nova marsh
#

Yeah

#

same

#

Even if blizzard literally takes evrey ranged out to dinner evrey other week with how much bias there is

soft dew
#

Mage and Lock always have a good spec

#

Rogues? Not so much

at getting called an underperforming dps

By the person who literally can't play dps if their life was on the line?

lone raft
#

damn bartender doesn't switch ur bars around when u do dragonriding to access abilities huh

lone raft
nova marsh
#

I have not forgotten

#

when they Trolled my key

#

By doing Healer damage as a destro lock

#

Not tank damage

#

no no no healer damage

lone raft
#

I had a shammy try to charge me 600g 300 per b rez throughout the run cuz I died on a boss when he only pulled 5k less than me overall

nova marsh
#

Iv'e griefed a few keys on outlaw cuz I don't get enough sleep and even I haven't gotten anywhere near as bad as whatever the fuck they did

nova ravine
#

trying to set up an audio alert via cdm, for when sweeping strikes runs out of charges. problem is it only plays when i use sweeping strikes to apply, when i use broad strokes it does not do the audio alert, and from there it just stops bothering to alert me at all. am i missing something?

sturdy vortex
#

Hey folks, testing arms for m+ colosus. Should i use heroic strike for buff on aoe, or just ignore and cleave?

nova ravine
#

collat uses slam/HS * FoB

#

mash cleave

lone raft
#

FoB, fervor of battle is a talent that whenever u cleave u use slam/HS whichever is available also

sturdy vortex
#

ah, ty!

lone raft
lone raft
#

that is a nice idea I wanna do the same thing

rose ibex
#

my friend is telling me they are nerfs

nova marsh
nova ravine
#

when it works its amazing

nova marsh
#

It's an 8 target nerf on pure napkin math

rose ibex
#

wtf

#

that's basically all outlaw does

#

cleave

nova marsh
#

still waiting for actual sims

#

But...blizz is lowkey kinda trolling. I would've preffered just a straight buff to all our ST and toning down Flurry to account for it

#

Also

#

"Fatebound: Fate Intertwined increases the percent of damage Blade Flurry spreads by 5 (was 6)." Dunno why they worded it like this

#

And then there's the monk changes that are also...oddly formatted?

#

I thought brew got Fists of fury for a second there

soft dew
#

Hahaha, it's poorly structured

nova marsh
#

I'm not sure if it's wowhead or if it's blizzard's post, I'd have to go there

#

Oh

#

It's wowhead

rose ibex
nova marsh
#

Honestly I feel like they just should've buffed indivudal abilities up by whatever amount and then toned down flurry

rose ibex
#

Yeaaaah

nova marsh
#

I'm also sad about no arms buffs (pvp isn't real)

rose ibex
#

Arms is fine i think

#

Not top but crushing dungeons

lone raft
#

just made an ignore pain sound alert on removal for arms

#

hugeeee

nova ravine
lone raft
#

yea so the manager is probably reading broad strokes as a separate talent

nova marsh
#

For the season I think arms is fine ye

lone raft
#

no way to go into this and write over it urself

nova marsh
#

I would still really love to see some Single Target improvements for colo

lone raft
#

so it worked but I had ss active first into broad so it tracked that

#

will try just broad now from demo

nova ravine
#

yeh it sometimes tracks the first lot

lone raft
#

it worked

nova ravine
#

naaaaaah

lone raft
#

so ur saying its inconsistent

#

try a different sound maybe

nova ravine
#

yeh

lone raft
#

or it doesn't work at all

#

I tried using the synth sound from wc2 ur using too and it worked

vast helm
#

maybe big tuning after RWF?

lone raft
#

WORKED AGain

#

sry caps

#

my keybind for rend

nova ravine
#

maybe i should relog

nova marsh
#

I think I might be okay if arms dosen't get tuning

#

I saw an arms bro blasting the lasher pack on a +11

i did unspeakable things to 2nd boss maisara

...that's disgusting

lone raft
#

What do we think

#

I died to show debuff placement

#

cd go above everything only buffs

#

I think ima move it all down

#

pots look weird there

nova ravine
#

i relogged, it worked for the first 4-5 rotations then breaks

lone raft
#

lemme see

nova marsh
#

I mean Idk

#

I can't stand seeing evreything like this

#

I'm a miminalist weirdo

hoary palm
lone raft
#

I was just tired of all my abilities on the bottom and the cdm on top it felt redundant

#

too much going on the screen

nova marsh
#

well I use arc

nova marsh
#

I'm probally gonna delete the stance bar

lone raft
#

need the stance bar for pvp

nova marsh
#

All utility and anything with a cd not on my bars is above them with CDM

#

Also fuck pvp disgusting

lone raft
#

can I see the full picture pls

nova marsh
#

There's not much else to see

#

+Besides leaving dps meters at the bottom

nova ravine
#

i was also running a rend pandemic reminder, seems like when that activates it breaks everything.. mid typing this message i got my sweeping strikes alert...

lone raft
#

do u have rallying cry bound

#

or u just kno the keybinds so well u don't need to see it

soft dew
lone raft
#

im on my 4th run

nova marsh
#

Yes I do

lone raft
#

its working

nova marsh
#

I just don't have it learned cuz leveling kill me

nova marsh
#

Also no

#

LEEME SHOW YOU A REAL 2010 UI

lone raft
#

this is what I got

#

I think im moving it more off center below to take up a little dead space, but keeping it clustered and a little negative space at the bottom

nova marsh
#

Here's one

lone raft
#

LOL

nova marsh
#

....this hurts to look at how the hell do people play like this

#

I just found this one on google

#

God and I wonder why wow has the rep it does in other mmos for a terrible UI

#

I found what might be a worse one

rapid bronze
#

this spec rocks

nova marsh
#

Hell yeah brot wait

#

what key

lone raft
#

I would only use miks scrolling combat text for crits

rapid bronze
#

just a shitty 10 nexus

seeing a fat execute pop was great in shadowlands

#

I think we all did

feel like i have 1 too many cds

nova marsh
#

Do I wonna

jovial hare
#

it's vile man

nova marsh
#

Okay that's bad

#

I was expecting worse

#

God am I too used to modern wow UI

#

NEVERMIND

#

I found the actual WF kill what is that

knotty marsh
#

How is arms boss damage in keys compared to thane fury?

rose ibex
#

Wtf is that

icy atlas
nova marsh
lone raft
#

edit mode is cursed man

#

why is my cast bar disappearing

#

interaction with bartender perhaps?

knotty marsh
#

My key group shits on aoe so I’m trynna find something with ok aoe but goooood ST

icy atlas
#

Unless you play Colossus, Arms isn’t a huge burst AoE spec. So that’s expected

lone raft
#

u can try slayer arms and see how u like it, both specs are very comparable

#

colo edges out a little more in aoe versus slayer where slayer gets more st

high snow
#

arms too good rn

knotty marsh
#

I’m using thane rn and with good groups average 130-170 but so does the aff lock in the group and shit just diesss, but bosses take 3-5 so I’m trynna think of something I can change to help that out

lean geode
#

Bozo

#

I did one key as arms

minor gust
lean geode
#

It was the worst experience of my life

minor gust
#

Fuck colo

lean geode
#

Doing no damage is the solution hmmNod

minor gust
#

Slayer is very good right now

lean geode
#

Was like a billion % less aoe damage when I simmed

#

also I need to practice for council

#

colossus

minor gust
#

In reality slayer keeps up pretty well

willow sorrel
#

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHY MY CAST@CURSOR CHAMPION SPEAR MACRO BREAKS AFTER PLAYING ARENAS FOR LIKE 45 MINS

minor gust
#

Sims yeah looks crazy odd but in actual keys slayer cranks

willow sorrel
minor gust
minor gust
# lean geode colossus

Only tip I can share with Colo is while tanks pulling try to pool a bit of rage before going into your CDs. Getting rage starved when you send your shit is a kms moment

#

ST and rage is a bit of RNG sometimes your chillin the whole time sometimes you are struggling to fill the red bar to press buttons and 0 tact procs

lean geode
#

What I meant was if my goal is to practice col for paladins I should probably play col, no?

minor gust
#

Probably. Paladins is just learning both 2T Colo rota and 3T

#

So have fun with that

wind hatch
minor gust
#

I always have a blue friend in my group but I still play slayer anyways! Played Colo all of TWW I'm good I'll pass. Gonna vibe as slayer since for the first time it's actually good in keys

wind hatch
#

Fair enough

#

Im still playing colo in keys but I tried slayer for a bit and its very fun

minor gust
#

Slayer just flows so nicely and pressing SD as soon as you get a proc vs ignoring it feels good

knotty marsh
#

Hmm I’ll have to try both then, for fury thane is just miles ahead of slayer when I tested them, hopefully seems is different

minor gust
#

Big reap damage

wind hatch
#

having a way to guarantee it with sd is awesome

muted drift
minor gust
#

Oh yeah, the only thing that sucks right now about Slayer keys is the RNG not getting a single reap proc in all your crushing combo cleaves sucks

#

That and bladestorm last 10 years

mortal rivet
#

Will avatar and colossus smash always sync (every other smash)?

minor gust
#

For the most part, yeah

upper sparrow
#

so with the Reap The Storm change, how is mortal strike hitting three or more targets?

mortal rivet
minor gust
minor gust
upper sparrow
#

so why tf they even put mortal strike in the tooltip if its impossible for it to proc reap?

minor gust
#

It's not. If you look on PTR, mortal strikes should be removed from the tool tip

lone raft
#

I played slayer arms in raid the other day tho and it was hella fun

#

so pick what u want I think u will like slayer it has a nice pace

#

anyone got the AoE slayer arms build I wanna try it

minor gust
#

Search my name in this channel I posted one today

lone raft
#

ty

#

is it from wowhead or the goats homebrew?

west fable
#

On Live is Arms worth switching off Fury for? Mainly doing keys, and as much as I like slamming my keyboard for meh damage, Idk about Fury.

minor gust
lean geode
nova marsh
minor gust
#

I havent touched fury at all this expansion but im pretty sure colo does more dmg than thane right now.

#

Slayer I guess its probably equal to thane

karmic anchor
#

how are you all tracking when herioc strike is up? I cant get it on my cooldown manager

minor gust
#

track slam

strange perch
#

there is a macro u can make which prioritice Heroic cast before OP

karmic anchor
#

you have one?

strange perch
#

ye sec

#

/Cast [known:Heroic Strike] Heroic Strike; Overpower

karmic anchor
#

Thank you!

strange perch
#

yw ^^

nova marsh
lean geode
#

What do you think about slarms vs col on paladins?

minor gust
#

colo just flat out better

lean geode
#

rage starving probably not much of an issue in raid ig

minor gust
#

if you havent been doing keys with a shaman you definingly notice skyfury

lean geode
#

I had one in a MC I ran

#

But holy fuck that key was already obnoxious

minor gust
#

yeah I am not a big fan of MC

lean geode
#

and playing colossus in there made me want to jump ingame

minor gust
#

Demoish is a funny button locking you down in place

lean geode
#

pug tanks always seem to have a new route every time I run it too

#

impossible to know when to send cds

minor gust
#

yup. Just more reasons why I think slayer is just way better if you mostly pug keys

lean geode
#

I'll just play thane gladge

#

Except maybe in like AA

minor gust
#

Fishy did 12.05 sims today. Things are actually looking way better than I expected

lean geode
#

For arms or thane?

minor gust
#

Slayer is actually big chillin barely lost any ST

lean geode
#

Last I heard, arma hadn't implemented any of the .5 stuff in simc

minor gust
#

Arms of course

#

Fishy only does arms

lean geode
#

but I could be out of the loop on that

nova ravine
minor gust
#

Slayer only loses 1.1% ST with these changes so its still slightly ahead of colo

lean geode
#

Even with machine gun demolish?

minor gust
#

yup

lean geode
#

Col probably a million light years ahead on 2t though right

minor gust
#

lol yeah and especially in 3T

#

arms funnel is pretty nutty right now

lean geode
#

Does it count as funnel when you press cleave on single target

minor gust
lean geode
#

I was making a joke about how dogshit this spec's design/tuning is

minor gust
lean geode
#

Where you press cleave over execute in single target

minor gust
#

im too tired for jokes just got home from a 13 hour work day

lean geode
#

I accidentally pressed a non-SD exe during my CS window on the 2nd boss of NPX damage amp

#

Was out of rage the entire rest of the CS

steep osprey
minor gust
lean geode
#

Like who made this spec man

steep osprey
#

I think they should just forgo this extra rage mechanic

minor gust
#

its so dogshit man but we do what we can with it

steep osprey
#

Make it the same cost as slam but stronger

#

Simple

nova marsh
#

Honestly

#

the only thing I don't like about current arms is how jank it with cleave

marsh needle
#

is mastery better now for us than it has been in the past?

#

seems to be good on a lot of my sims

rare burrow
#

there u go

#

everyone playing slayer now too

marsh needle
#

was just looking at swapping my weap

#

its such a small upgrade

#

this was crazy to me on murlok

#

ive just always played slayer cuz i like it more

sudden sentinel
#

does slam or overpower have prio for filler?

minor gust
rare burrow
devout pewter
#

also, apparently arms isn't very good in survivability, so it's always below fury because of that... which I wonder why, because just from playing arms this week, I've "single handedly" saved 3 m+ runs with dbts

#

archon posts what is actually happening from in game

random trout
#

10 pit guys is reap suppose to be this high up?

#

new at arms

minor gust

I have yet to see it that high but you very likely could have just gotten some insane procs all key

#

either you arent pressing cleave on CD or yeah you procd out of your mind and thats why BS is 2nd

frail helm
#

I'm a fury main and so confused by all the flip flopping lately. Is arms slayer now considered the best for m+?

rare kite
#

yes

frail helm
#

is it doing more in packs than colossus?

#

or is it just less shit at ST

random trout
rare kite
#

just less shit st

minor gust
random trout
frail helm
#

And what is the verdict on raid? Is arms taking over?

minor gust
#

yes you will send your 4 cleaves then bladestorm after. If you arent at max imminent demise stacks you can send any SD executes before BS if you get them during your 4 cleaves
