inland drift
#

so i've been wasting 12 stacks of sweep for nothing?

#

fuck

jade ember
#

Yeah you should wait for your CS stacks to fall off before you actually hit Sweep

stable fiber
#

i typically try to prepull sweep depending on dungeon

#

like nexus point i use sweep with 5 seconds left on the timer when the key has already been put in

#

(lets me build demo stacks easier and faster while still having sweep up after you use cs)

sharp goblet
#

second boss has an increased damage taken phase, generally slayer pumps damage there (as it can quickly unload a bunch of damage and has a strong dmg amp of its own with colossus smash)

inland drift
#

ahh right right

shut token
#

Is it possible to make an arms without cleave that can do good ST and stopp decent aoe? Would color or slayer be best for that?

stable fiber
#

colo still pretty good on that fight

sharp goblet
#

yeah i love demolishing for 800k+

stable fiber
#

esp if you have boss down to 35% when you send cds

inland drift
#

welp, was still top dps even with 12 stacks :)) fml

#

but now with 24

#

oooooohooo

stable fiber
#

you can cleave for like 600k+ 4x in a row

inland drift
#

maybe thats why my slayer was aad

sharp goblet
#

if it makes you feel any better

#

I fail to press rend

#

ever

#

remind myself every time and just forget instantly

stable fiber
#

its not that important for slayer

#

but colo its a pretty big loss not pushing rend

inland drift
#

now i gotta try aoe with 24 stacks

wide needle
#

I need to do some simming to see what I should be shooting for I guess.. Overall is pretty decent for 10s (just north of 100k) but boy howdy

nova marsh
#

Yeah no like I said

#

Colo ST is actually just the worst in the game

wide needle
#

I am misplaying quite a bit as well. Arms is a fun spec and it is quite complicated compared to the rest that I've leveled

nova marsh
#

if your stacks fall off on bosses it's a bit of a GG

stable fiber
#

i wonder if its worth holding pot in raid for execute phase

#

reck pot in execute might go crazy ngl

wide needle
#

Get in a worse raid where you get two lol

stable fiber
#

80% crit chance executes and mortal strikes during cds might go crazy

carmine iris
#

do we hold colossus smash for bladestorm if its more than like 10 seconds?

nova marsh
#

No

#

You hold bladestorm for cs

carmine iris
#

ok but cs on cd?

sharp goblet
#

yes

carmine iris
#

word, ty kings

nova marsh
#

Same applioes

sharp goblet
#

unless its like the very end of the fight ig, then you can delay it a bit (as long as you don't lose a cast)

#

and u delay it for amp phases a bit as well

carmine iris
#

makes sense

sharp goblet
#

otherwise just send it

carmine iris
#

and are you guys playing colo ro slayer more in keys? i know slayer is better st but is it worth in high keys?

nova marsh
#

tbh I think it's personal pref and comp dependant

#

If your group has mid ST slayer is probally better

#

If you don't, just go colo (also if you have shammy)

sharp goblet
#

I've been doing mostly slayer recently, though still get clowned on for single target dps (even though it's legit not bad)

nova marsh
#

Slayer ST is okay

sharp goblet
#

played a lot of colo earlier, and it's fun and good

stable fiber
#

slayer st can go crazy if you gamble high

#

which i hate

sharp goblet
#

until your tank moves mobs from demolish

#

and then im just sad

stable fiber
#

i deadass do more st on some bosses in keys then i do in raid

#

lmfao!?!?!?1

jade ember
#

Its tru Demolishing things is fun, and we're gonna be able to do that more often soon

nova marsh
#

Yeah that's the downside

jade ember
#

At the cost of Cleave wounds

nova marsh
#

Slayer ST unironically feels more RNG then fucking outlaw

sharp goblet
#

of in 12.0.5 I'm super high on Colo copium

nova marsh
#

Which should be a literal warcrime

sharp goblet
#

that it's gonna do ST with the cdr

stable fiber
#

this is worse then bm last tier

#

and bm last tier was stupid

sharp goblet
#

but then again I like when the second scenario happens so 🎰

nova marsh
#

Ya know something I also find funny

#

didn't blizz want to reduce rng overall? Don't we literally have a new proc system that's suppose to standardize them a bit more?

#

Meanwhile if anything I feel like warr get an RNG increase

#

actually no

#

Now that I think about, it's worse. It's arguably just barely better then Jugg rng

stable fiber
#

jugg had more consistency and wasnt as impactful to dps

#

lmao

nova marsh
#

Was it?

#

Wait

#

No way you just said that

#

Bro cmon

stable fiber
#

yes i did

nova marsh
#

na sorry

stable fiber
#

i could still 99 in s2 of tww with bad jugg procs

#

i cannot right now with bad sd procs

nova marsh
#

...fair point

stable fiber
#

or slayer strikes

#

also on a boss like fallen king

#

its even more impactful

#

you dont have bladestorm for that intermission

#

you might as well just not exist on the meters

jade ember
#

its a mixed bag being the dynamic cd dps class whatcha gonna do

nova marsh
#

I just don't get why slayer has to have RNG

#

I mean colo does too

#

But colo is signifcantly more consistant

stable fiber
#

yup

nova marsh
#

Like I feel like

#

we traded jugg rng for sd rng

stable fiber
#

bs cd can range from 25 seconds to 1:15 seconds

#

cool

nova marsh
#

I'mma be so fr rn

#

I'd rather just have BS back on AM

#

And have slayer have literally anything else on the CDR node

stable fiber
#

its either make slayer strikes/sd proc more

#

or remove cdr from sd and add it to am

nova marsh
#

Personally at this point

stable fiber
#

more sd procs fixes rage issues and kinda fixes bs cd

nova marsh
#

I'd rather it just go back to AM

#

See I do agree

#

But I'd rather the spec in general get the rage fixes

#

So colo isn't completely screwed without a shaman

sharp goblet
#

very random question I've been wondering about - could we use this to giga inflate overall in m+? πŸ‘€ it's the item rextroy used for boss oneshots, slam it with a huge crit and do 100% key parses

stable fiber
#

dont think you can use those in keys

#

not in dungeons/raids afaik

sharp goblet
#

makes sense

nova marsh
#

Even if you could

#

I don't thionk that's worth it

sharp goblet
#

I didn't mean it for value, just a fun thing to do with logs to troll friends

inland drift
#

on slayer m+ , dop i take improved sweep or momentum

nova marsh
#

Aside from them being invalidated

#

it would be funny

nova marsh
#

You already should have 100% uptime or close to it on SS between Broad strokes and SS itself

inland drift
#

coll smash gives us 6 sweeps right

nova marsh
#

no

#

12

sharp goblet
#

I'm pretty sure you spec neither? u go mass execution and battlelord instead

#

depends on dungeon

nova marsh
#

?

#

Oh crap wrong build

sharp goblet
#

most slayers don't spec powerful momentum afaik?

#

hahaha

#

happens

nova marsh
#

oh fr? That's

#

Odd but okay I just noticed it LOL

inland drift
#

really? ngl i went for crit's slayer build,

#

yeah i have mass active

sharp goblet
#

it's dungeon dependent I think, and both are fine

inland drift
sharp goblet
#

maybe you grab all 3 and skip deep wounds idk

nova marsh
#

I mean

#

next patch I think slayer will do that

sharp goblet
#

but it's 2 of the 3 [Battlelord, Momentum, Mass Exec] I think?

#

ah no u always run wounds my b

nova marsh
#

ye rn we always run wounds

inland drift
#

welp, by the time the stacks of sweeps ends, next one is available

nova marsh
#

21st it's probally droppable for more aoe

inland drift
#

wish we had a lil bit more st

nova marsh
#

But for rn I don't think you drop wounds

sharp goblet
#

I was looking at colo on accident yea

nova marsh
#

Colo dosen't need wounds cuz wounds is on demo

lament forge
#

If im brand new to arms, would u suggest slayer or colossus?

stable fiber
#

slayer easier and better st

stable fiber
#

colo harder and more aoe

sharp goblet
#

slayer is easier, and more fun for most people

nova marsh
#

Also slayer can't get trolled as hard by tanks and routes

lament forge
inland drift
#

slayer, but do take a lok at coll from time to time

#

i love the dmg of it

granite swift
#

i have a harder time with slayer than colo weirdly

inland drift
#

same

granite swift
#

need to play more

inland drift
#

need more crit

nova marsh
#

Shaman's don't exist 😭

#

Cmon man I just wonna play colo with rage

nova marsh
#

Whyyy

quiet bramble
#

need more buffs

nova marsh
#

Blizz give me shaman tank yep

#

I mean yes

#

Give me buffs too

#

Shaman is techincally a buff

quiet bramble
#

i guess we should get ourselves a slave monkahmm

nova marsh
#

Friend is too bad at wow to play keys at a +12

#

GG no shaman friend

#

They also aren't playing shaman

grim anchor
#

do we press rend now ?

#

is it in the rotation

nova marsh
#

...It always has been?

rigid sun
#

how often do you guys use MS during execute phase in raid?

grim anchor
#

came back from a break lol

nova marsh
#

No?

smoky kayak
#

that's deep wounds

grim anchor
#

nvm meant thunder clap

#

my bad

quiet bramble
#

arms doesnt use tc deadge

grim anchor
smoky kayak
#

this is a whole new expansion, with a whole new expansion's worth of changes

umbral badger
#

When will the final patch notes come put for 12.0.5

quiet bramble
grim anchor
smoky kayak
#

I recommend you either go read up on some of the changes or just go in game and refamiliarize yourself with how things work now

rigid sun
#

I read up execute prio in rotation guide, it says use MS with 2 stacks of precision. So the stacks from overpower doesn't come into account when using MS here?

umbral badger
quiet bramble
nova marsh
#

Oh nevermind for raid

#

But no

#

Treat it like it's always been: Nice side of damage (I mean prowess is also tuned impressively low)

umbral badger
#

I mean i remember you naturally will use all your ops anyway

#

Cuz rage stufd

quiet bramble
#

fking hate prowess

nova marsh
#

why

quiet bramble
#

my aaah just wanna send MS right when it's up sadge

rare kite
nova marsh
#

You do

#

you always have

#

did we ever play around prowess in WW?

quiet bramble
rare kite
#

unless you mean executioners precision in execute phase, which is differnet

#

different

stone torrent
#

new here. is fury really that much better than arms?>

quiet bramble
umbral badger
#

I still don't even know if you so morral without 2 executes on execute phase during CS or not i always hate if i can't extend my CS πŸ˜…

#

BUUUUUT my colossus is gonna be goood again so F slayer

quiet bramble
#

da hell u mean f slayer

rigid sun
#

I can't play colossus on ST fights

nova marsh
#

TBH

#

even with the extra cdr

#

I doubt colo is playable

#

for st

umbral badger
#

I mean if colossus sims clpse tp slayer on ST, colossus will beat slayer on many bosses even without taking adds into account

nova marsh
#

NA

#

it just flat out beats slayer full stop

umbral badger
#

For example, first boss you get free demo resets by sweeping the adds

nova marsh
#

We have like 2 non-pad fights in the whole tier

umbral badger
#

The adds don't take dmg

#

But they reset ur thing

#

I guess any situation where sweeping is relevant for short durations πŸ˜‚

umbral badger
wind hatch
umbral badger

Was the case in TWW too tbf but we also had unhinged then

umbral badger
vague mortar
#

Hey guys I just switched to Colossus Arms for M+ and I'm getting familiar to the rotation but a bit confused at how I should handle Heroic Strike

umbral badger
#

Ferver will consume the proc and do a 50% stronger HC for you

vague mortar
#

Ohhhhh, nice, so don't even need to use it on AOE just on bosses (M+)

#

Thank you !

umbral badger
rigid sun
#

tried colossus on dragons boss?

random ridge
#

If i got myth weap what should i craft as embellish guys ?

nova marsh
jade grove
#

Do we just go Colossus on any M+ or is Slayer better in in dungeons where we need more single target damage?

nova marsh
#

realistically it's comp dependant

#

I don't feel like we have any really small pull dunegons besides maybe skyreach

slow saddle
jade grove
#

In what way? If the comp has a lot of st we go colossus, if not slayer?

slow saddle
#

🀣

jade grove
#

ight

smoky kayak
#

some bosses just don't have and can't pull extra mobs in

nova marsh
#

True

#

Like last boss of SR

slow saddle
#

Aa

#

Nexus? Mby?

umbral badger
# random ridge If i got myth weap what should i craft as embellish guys ?

i always sy this, if you are in a raid and you have high chances to get the bracers from teh first few bosses "there are 2 bracers early in the raid tier" then you can start by crafting the gloves. because our BIS gloves are m+ so you either get it in vault or you don't. that being said we will get plenty of crafts going forward so you can do it anytime.

#

but i personally won't bet my life on 1 single specific myth gloves in vault forever while i am stuck with hero gloves 🀣

sacred zodiac
#

most sims i ran with hc voidclaw ended up saying to craft any other slot other than tier slots

#

can feelycrafty predict that two non tier pieces should sim better but just sim yourself

smoky kayak
umbral badger
smoky kayak
#

ok then craft cloak

umbral badger
slow saddle
#

Yes so then after that neck

umbral badger
#

i could have started with cloak and let gloves on reset for a chance of gloves in vault ofc

#

so there is that

slow saddle
#

Why ever gloves?

umbral badger
#

but i had trauma of waiting the "myth track item" to appear f oreveer xd

#

cuz raid doeds not drop gloves

#

does not *

rigid sun
#

gloves is not tier prio

smoky kayak
#

I mean you can do w/e you want, but you're gonna replace em eventually, which is going to waste crests and sparks overall

slow saddle
#

Yup

rigid sun
#

I have tier gloves from raid and still champions chest 😩

sacred zodiac
smoky kayak
#

there's never any guarantee of what you're gonna get, but there's also nothing saying you won't get a tier glove from vault and use it just because

umbral badger
#

for that reason i just go wtih the idea of getting as much power as possible so we can kill stuff in raid

smoky kayak
#

yes, glove is offpiece, but that's partially because there are cantrip gloves; it doesn't mean you're not gonna use tier gloves if you get them

slow saddle
#

This

rigid sun
#

I got haste/crit belt in my vault first week.

#

the other things weren't worthy to take

smoky kayak
#

one of the advantages to crafting bracer is also that it gives you a place to put any early socket you get

#

e.g. if you have a shitty week 2 vault, you can safely put that socket in the crafted gear slot you're not going to replace

slow saddle
#

Aka bracers

smoky kayak
#

as opposed to not wanting to put it into a heroic hat or something

umbral badger
smoky kayak
#

my raids have 3 plate users on average lol
melee sucks this tier

umbral badger
#

so i always want to minmax our drops in guild for greater % dmg gain

smoky kayak
#

seems like you're making a lot of justifications to do what you wanna do anyway

umbral badger
#

nah

smoky kayak
#

and as I said, if you wanna craft gloves, you do you boo

#

but there are reasons it's not the typical recommendation

umbral badger
#

in fact i also did that in TWW s3 , insteada of me needing on stuff others might need i just took the chest on First boss :p

#

s3

sacred zodiac
#

how gracious to click bis on a bis item

umbral badger
#

nah was not but was workable

sacred zodiac
#

does your guild do roll based loot or is your loot council incompetent

#

its not your job to decide what to click need on

balmy kindle
#

what point do you guys give up for stance mastery ? crushing force ?

umbral badger
sacred zodiac
#

i think i understand how to gear a guild better than you do

umbral badger
#

first bosses items you will be drawning in them

#

it's literally how it works

#

i did not assume you are better or worse and i don't think anyone should be bringing a conversation to "i am better than you"

#

i just made a simple point, i would rather to make use of the items that we might end up literally disenchanting other wise

sacred zodiac
#

sure, thats fair enough, but you're also justifying something that has been objectively decided through sims to not be optimal

umbral badger
#

i am not

#

i am saying i would rather use the bracers than disencahnt it

#

on first few bosses

#

that's really not complicated point

slow saddle
#

It is

#

Wasting 80 crest on hands

#

Seems a really bad choice

umbral badger
#

by the same logic you could just end up getitng the neckalce that you suggested we craft in the vault

#

and not hte gloves

slow saddle
#

But that costs less

umbral badger
#

so why sit on a hero gloves forever ?

slow saddle
#

Because cantrip hero gloves

#

Is not far off crafted gloves.?

sacred zodiac
#

cantrip gloves that punch above their weight calss at hc ilvl ye

rigid sun
#

how would you go about playing colossus on the Alleria fight?

#

it seems that you can get quite a few resets with the adds

slow saddle
#

Vs a crafted item

sacred zodiac
#

press n and then click fury and then equip a second weapon

umbral badger
sacred zodiac
#

or is this hc padding advice

spark solstice
#

Is it normal when you go from fury to arms that arms just feels MEH

#

i am rage starved the whole time and its so slow

#

i know its the "tactical" spec, but damn

rigid sun
#

fury chat is two rows down the hallway

sacred zodiac
#

i dont need to be in the fury chat to tell you not to throw your mythic progress but if you wanna pad hc then go for it

spark solstice
sacred zodiac
spark solstice
#

Raid

#

first normal raid as arms

sacred zodiac
#

both dps specs warriors have will just be ass in raid

sand totem
#

Its def slower then fury. But with some crit the rage issues largely get resolved, except in execute phase

sacred zodiac
#

the only fight either spec shines in is paladins

umbral badger
sacred zodiac
#

its not even like you get any benefit from the clunkiness both specs face (except for paladins you blast)

umbral badger
#

but some ppl did make arms slayer work on her

#

so you can go for it

nova marsh
spark solstice
#

just thought id try arms out so i could play both specs and change it up a bit

nova marsh
#

Not that it dosen't help a lot

umbral badger
#

it's all good bro just go for slayer and don't use CS 4 seconds before boss swap in phase 2

#

so thta you don't lose it

sand totem
#

I mean i dont find myself rage starved till exe phase, largely i think cause of SD procs

slow saddle
#

Which is less crit related

umbral badger
#

good luck!

spark solstice
sand totem
#

No but both of them are true. Crit largely increases our rage gen, and SD helps us keep our rage

umbral badger

balmy kindle
#

anyone knows the current charge for cata ?

rigid sun
#

just regular ST build?

umbral badger
# rigid sun good example

did not check but i assume so, when i did a HC reclear it turned out better parses for me as slayer arms to just be ST and forget about adds on most hc bosses as adds die in a split second

#

so yea pure ST on crown

west estuary
#

Serious question, what am I missing about Arms, that all of these top players are playing Arms right now? Fury sims higher on single target and AOE for me. Is it a survivability thing?

brisk relic
#

Is colosus that much better than slayer for m+? saw both biz and critcake running colosus mainly, dunno if its ahead or if its just playstyle pref

muted drift
brisk relic
#

yeah, was just wondering since Im with bm hunter and feral and both struggle with st I feel like

#

so slayer might be better there

muted drift
#

Slayer still does pretty good aoe as it is.

brisk relic
#

yeah yeah

muted drift
#

Just doesn’t burst as high

#

I’m not pumping high keys atm but I’ve been doing 14+ 140k overall as slayer and out dpsing hunters, mages and unholy dks.

#

Colo probably would do more with the bigger pulls but the bosses would take a fair while

rose matrix
#

Colossus is basically only worth it in a premade in higher keys

#

In certain dungeons

#

Cause it is pretty easy to get trolled in Colossus in pugs as well

glacial flame
#

Does Arms, especially Colossus M+ spec, feels super strange to play right now? I main Prot and sometimes step into the DPS specs and played fury in MN untill now. Slayer Raid spec feels fine and it flows but the Colossus specs is overwhelming and for the first time I find a warrior spec is button bloated. Whats the general opinion right now?

rose matrix
#

To me Arms feels pretty bad to play in comparison to Fury, especially Colossus. Slayer isn't near as bad imo

tropic tiger
#

i need to log review because some 5-8t pulls slarms hits 3-400k and others it's 200k

#

whereas colo seems to consistently just slam (ofc no st)

nova marsh
#

Na that's

#

kinda slayer lowkey

#

Log review anyways but slayer is more RNG then colo

glacial flame
#

Colossus feels like unrewarding rocket science

nova marsh
#

I like colo and the build up...the problem is tank trollable and no rage

rose matrix
#

The ST feeling so terrible is enough for me to not play it unless it is way better

#

Which might be the case with the buff to the cdr on demolish

nova marsh
#

I mean consider

#

More demos = better st

#

And the buffs are significant enough to ensure evrey demo should align with cs in ST

rose ibex
#

finally got this stupid thing

even tho its champ im still super happy

I should do first two bosses on heroic for warr

sorry to be a nuisance ... i tried different trinkets now, different flasks. How are my abilities hitting for 15k, 10k, 6k less then last week with lower item level? What is wrong with my warrior?

https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/WvXJBLV7zamMP4cA?fight=last&source=14&type=damage-done (this week kill) -- multiple pulls with different crit chances on MS, still a massive difference in damage done

Not even just that

dim basalt
#

You don't see that until very high keys

nova marsh
#

yes

sour tinsel
#

interesting

dim basalt
#

And there are plenty of keys that are better for Slayer too

Weekly could've been better I guess lol.

nova marsh

Does it thou

#

I stg

#

So many pugs cannot play brew to save their damn lives

slow saddle
#

But theeen

#

U get a gold one and just vibe

#

The amount pf brews that let mobs hit em in the back

#

Almost veng meta levela dumb

bleak arrow
#

they should make all tanks have 80% passive damage reduction at all times to encourage pugs to play them

slow saddle
#

I tanked a 12 with no cluego as warrior

bleak arrow
#

warrior goat brain off tank

slow saddle
#

Ill have u know, some trashpacks hit haeder

#

Than i thought

#

Some hit less🀣

nova marsh

I wish I had that gif of the veng dh leaping into a pack without demon spikes

#

and insta dying

#

@minor gust col arms or thane fury for vaelgor adds bombing

#

Saw that you have a high parse on it

#

So maybe youre thinking Fury is better

last saddle
#

@tacit crystal is there a myth pug type shit this weekend

minor gust
dim basalt
#

so colo it is

#

We will play it with 2 bdks

tacit crystal
#

no they decided to do it on tuesday wehn normal people raid

#

m+ player moment

#

@wintry pagoda

#

i hope that answers the dm

minor gust
# dim basalt We will play it with 2 bdks

That's what we did and the dks were using gorefiends on me so I got to just press CS demo and cleave on em. Sometimes just demo depending how much my orb pad was being stolen

dim basalt
#

Only me and enh are allowed to dps orbs

tacit crystal
#

lol

dim basalt
#

So I might get all cleaves through

minor gust
#

Holy

tacit crystal
#

actual padders

minor gust
#

You are gonna fuck those orbs then

tacit crystal
#

critcake level pad

minor gust
#

Yeah if you can get all your cleaves after demo on orbs you should be able to solo them and get R1 easy lmao

dim basalt
#

Our actual raidlead is on vacation and our co-raidlead is a former HOF raider and he hates when people dont do what theyre supposed to haha

minor gust
#

Tell em my boss dmg will be decent while also being able to solo orbs

#

And get that fat R1

nova marsh
#

Alright

#

Heroic vora better drop it

dim basalt
#

We better kill the boss on our first night

minor gust
#

πŸ™

#

Dragons ain't that hard so if you got a full night of prog for it you surely kill

dim basalt
#

ye full night fortunately

#

But our skill varies highly from night to night

minor gust
#

I believe y'all kill

astral yarrow
#

consistently incosistent

nova marsh
#

...bro

#

I just had a heroic group wipe to enrage on vora

nova marsh

#

Kill me

#

i see that we can cast heroic strike while doing other spell to cancel the GCD, you guys have macro for that or full manual ? ^^

random ridge
#

as slayer raid spec do we hold bs for cs to get more cs uptime with unhinged or do we just send on cd

with the set i mean

How important is the crit for Arms? I've been going hard on fury, pretty itemized into haste/mastery. Will I have a absolutely bad time if I want to try out arms? Don't really have other gear to swap around.

270 Ilvl
13 percent crit
27 percent haste
42 percent mastery

quaint otter
#

important yes

nova marsh
#

Unironically

#

never lucky

quaint otter
#

absolutely bad time no

#

just try it

nova marsh
#

GG go next

quaint otter
#

At least got boe

nova marsh
#

No drops for me

#

Well

#

besides free glove upgrade keks

quaint otter
#

1st boss dropped all plate gear tho

nova marsh

I sniped the shoulders off this pug for mog

fleet goblet
#

hi, question

#

whats the main diff with fury right now?
wich its easier to pick up after 2 expact not palying warriror?

nova marsh
#

fury is probally easier to play

undone aurora
#

how different is arms rn from like arms s2 tww? I played arms s2 tww don't remember all that much but arms rn just feels rlly weird to play

#

it feels like i'm doing it terribly wrong

#

I also really hate pressing rend it feels super forgettable and unsatisfying

#

I think my issue might lie in the fact i'm fury braining a bit though

#

i'm not lining up cds I think

#

maybe

umbral badger
#

so for that reason i found slayer arms easier than thane fury :p

#

also many of the top arms rarely ever rend as slayer arms anyway

#

ofc this kind of thing is objective, but at least i believe that most ppl will find slayer fury the easiest to play by far lol

astral yarrow
#

pressing rend in single target over raging blow is not that intuitive

wary plank
#

Can you spell reflect the last boss in seat?

nova marsh
left shard
#

can someone tell me why im missing a catalyst charge?

#

arent we supposed to have 3 +1 from 2k rating?

#

i only have 2 on my twink + 1 from 2k rating

nova marsh
#

first of all twink?

fervent cedar
#

twink = low level character with xp gain turned off

left shard
#

dont you call that twink anymore?

#

basically me second char

nova marsh
#

#

we call it alt

left shard
#

man im old

#

....

#

im only 26 though

#

"only"

nova marsh
#

I was like

#

"How tf does a twink have 2k raiting in keys?

left shard
#

yeah so anyway does anyone know why?

nova marsh
#

WEirdness aside

#

Check your bags

#

The one from 2k for me was a physical item

left shard
#

yes i got that

#

but im missing charges

#

arent we supposed to have 3 ? and the other 1 from m+?

#

or am i missing something

nova marsh
#

yes

left shard
#

then i dont know why i only have 2

#

schould i write a ticket?

nova marsh
#

Last time this happened they used one

#

But maybe?

left shard
#

allright ill give it a try

thick hamlet
#

how many sparks are we supposed to be on right now

hollow bone
#

2 + 1 from achiev, 1st charge was 17th of march

shut token
#

what is the latest news on the reap the storm change? Will it change or stay the same?

thick hamlet
hollow bone
#

every 2 weeks so next reset

nova marsh
#

After yesterday's hotfix

#

However....we don't know if it's a bug cuz there never any offical notes

#

Or if bliz will revert

shut token
#

Alright, becaise first i heard that they were gonna remove it from ms and then that the change was reverted

nova marsh
#

YEAH

#

and that's how it was till yesterday

shut token
#

what happened yesterday?

nova marsh
#

It now triggers on sd without the condition of sweep

shut token
#

oh thats interesting

robust oak
#

Can i make a macro that toggles stances?

nova marsh
#

pins

#

Oh

#

They wiped it nevermind

robust oak
#

if u have it can u copy and paste it for me

nova marsh
#

Not at pc

robust oak
#

I checked wowhead and didnt see it

#

oh its in this discrod. found it

nova marsh
#

Yeah it used to be in pins for each channel

carmine dawn
#

It’s in the faqs under macros and was

robust oak
#

the 10% reduced damage seems kinda hefty. is defensive stance a big deal in arms survivability?

wind hatch
#

it's extremely good in pvp though

robust oak
#

alright so in pve we just rely on die by the dingus and spell block. Is arms squishy compared to others? its no DK or Pally i understand but a 1.8 min defensive cd isnt too good.

potent drum
#

Hey guys, what's the target count to start the AOE rotation? 3?

robust oak
#

It would be rad if its cd could be reduced by anger management

wind hatch
robust oak
#

Understood ty

civic sphinx
#

is there a add-on like the old WA that tells you when youre being targeted by a spell

jovial hare
#

just pop in for a mech

#

then pop out

robust oak
#

not a good thing to use in pve considering the damage loss

jovial hare
#

its not really something you sit in

jovial hare
main wing
jovial hare
#

^

#

less unga, more live

spring vale
#

like if you're soaking the volleyball in last boss of MT, you just go defensive stance, soak and then back to dps stance

robust oak
#

and how many times would u say the average arms player uses that stance in a key

swift flame
#

If you are doing cutting edge content you are swapping to dstance when you are taking big damage

jovial hare
#

i use it at least 2-4 times every key

#

at least

robust oak
#

7-10 range of keys

swift flame
#

Its not that much of a loss to be in dstance for 2-3 globals

robust oak
#

alright

unholy fotm players are something special

#

arms good on crown???

#

(do not look at p2)

jovial hare
#

a 100 in a sea of greys is cray

reef glade
#

only 1 arms has killed the boss i think lol

#

part of why it says that

jovial hare
#

oh wait lmfao

#

yeah i guess it would be a high parse

reef glade
#

im not uh... bottom on the boss

#

for p2

#

so thats good

jovial hare
reef glade
#

def smurfed p1 randomly

#

think some good crits

#

like a 1.2 and 1.5mil mortal strike crit or something lol

mystic summit
#

beat an unholy by 40k on overall and he said its only bc of 3t cleave second boss in seat

reef glade
#

truth nuke

mystic summit
#

+12 seat i beat an unholy dk by 40k on overall

quiet merlin
mystic summit
#

at the end of the dungeon he had 3 interrupts so i said find your mind freeze keybind

vapid spire
#

I just saw that, and most of the other characters in here have 1.7M hp, Velen is an absolute chad

mystic summit
#

and quit trolling a +12 with 80k overall

jovial hare
#

wat

#

actually criminal

mystic summit
#

then he said my overall was better bc the second boss is 3 target cleave

pastel stirrup
#

where the hell did the discord see the PTR changes in wowhead

proper moth
#

Archi is all seeing
His gooning allows him celestial clarity

unkempt plaza
#

this spec is bloated asf

#

hate to break it to you

#

rend being a button in the big 26 is criminal

#

so is SS

proper moth
#

I’ve already crashed out about this

unkempt plaza
#

your opinion is valid

mystic summit
#

wouldnt mind ms or cleave refreshing rend

#

ik ms does in execute but

proper moth
#

Rend is such a stupid button

unkempt plaza
#

I'm so glad I got double myth track weapons

#

I will enjoy the fury life

mystic summit
#

gross

unkempt plaza
#

fuck that button bloat

proper moth
#

Fury still uses rend no?

unkempt plaza
#

no bro haha

#

fury just claps

#

that applies rend

mystic summit
#

slayer fury in the same position as arms with rend

steep tree
#

wish deep wounds would restrore more

#

health

unkempt plaza
#

I wish this spec wouldnt have my entire action bar glowing

steep tree
#

it could be the self healing the class needs instead it kinda just ticles the healthbar

#

i like it when it glows

unkempt plaza
#

It's giga distracting to me even when I know the right order

proper moth
proper moth
#

Raise it to 40% hp

unkempt plaza
#

last time I played arms was in shadowlands

#

what the fuck happened

#

I was spamming overpower, mortal strike and occasionaly sudden death execute

#

and press my swifty macro that just pops every cd

#

now I gotta track rend and shit like nah

#

fuck that

#

I have two brain cells

nova marsh
#

I honestly feel like evreyone has different opnions on what bloat is

#

I'm fine with SS

#

Rend a bit less so

mortal rivet
#

slarms or colo for M+? buddy is trying to convince me to try it out (been fury forever)

nova marsh
#

Avatar and ravager are nothing but bloat and need to go

jovial hare
#

rend needs to actually interact w/ our kit

#

otherwise just make it passive on ms and cleave

nova marsh
#

Like I'm not arguing that arms isn't bloated

#

Fuck no, it's the most overbloated spec in the game and it's not even a debate I don't think

jovial hare
#

avatar needs redesigned too
its got the same issue as rend
press it and forget it

nova marsh
#

na

#

Avatar would have to be an entirely seperate CD for it to be worth it in arms imo

#

Our damage amp is already MORE then fulfilled by CS

jovial hare
#

i just want it to make execute go bongo and give us haste or something

#

like i dont want it to be a dmg amp

nova marsh
#

I'd rather just leave it behind

jovial hare
#

i like getting big tho

#

innuendo aside

#

like i just like being the big guy in the group

nova marsh
#

Avatar hasn't felt good to press to me since like bfa lmao

nova marsh
jovial hare
#

no i dont like colo

nova marsh
#

Seriously buff it to like 20% blizz cowards

jovial hare
#

lmfao

#

taurens would get stuck in doors

#

constantly

#

perfect immersion

nova marsh
#

Tell them to reroll

#

And honestly

#

Avatar would still exist for fury and prot because it has a point there

#

Namely thane

jovial hare
#

idk like
make avatar just give u like 3 sd procs+one on use
20% haste
and make sd do like 60% more dmg or something
also can we do something about colo literally not wanting to press execute

#

that feels criminal

nova marsh
#

The only way colo wants to press exe

#

is if we go back to launch TWW stacks imo

jovial hare
#

is on sd lmfao

nova marsh
#

And honestly....

#

I can live without that.

#

Eh

#

Stacks on SD sounds okay

jovial hare
#

idk it feels wrong that arms even has a world where it doesnt want to hit exe

nova marsh
#

But then I also would like to see improved exe be baseline (honestly this should just happen regardless)

jovial hare
#

like critical thinking should just be a passive arms learns at like 24 or some shit

#

thats like the biggest issue w/ the trees rn
theres so much shit that arms wants thats either too expensive
or feels like its not worth the point
despite definitely welcoming some shit

#

like martial prowess is nice to have, period
but fuck taking that shit if it means im giving up like blord or mass execution

nova marsh
#

Honestly I think prowess is tuned painfully low

#

Like....a lot of our talents tbh

jovial hare
#

blord being a deep talent is also criminal
the spec flows so much nicer with it

#

should be like right under MS

#

linking from sd/op

nova marsh
#

The tacti talents (Brute force and master tacti) are literally just unsuable

jovial hare
#

(imo)

nova marsh
#

I mean imo

#

Arms needs a full rework

jovial hare
#

ye

nova marsh
#

Down to the way we get rage

unkempt plaza
#

just make the dogshit spec have less buttons so it doesnt feel terrible trying to play optimal

nova marsh
#

i STG

jovial hare
#

mastery should honestly be a personal skyfury buff atp
needing a shaman to make sure my globals arent empty is tiring

unkempt plaza
#

having to track rend is maximum criminal

#

I aint no fucking feral

nova marsh
#

skyhold makes me feel like I'm in an insane aslyum for liking arms to any degree

nova marsh
#

You're tracking a debuff anyways (CS)

jovial hare
#

just press it like every 15s man
whats the issue

unkempt plaza
#

I have 3 working braincells

jovial hare
#

skill issue

unkempt plaza
#

I press cs when its up

nova marsh
#

Then play fury

unkempt plaza
#

I am not trackiing

nova marsh
#

skill issue

jovial hare
#

"get rid of this bc i dont wanna think"
yo ret paladins calling ur name

nova marsh
#

Oh damn

jovial hare
#

u dont even need a single cell to play that

unkempt plaza
#

im not even offended

#

I used to be a ret

jovial hare
#

no im being deadass
if u dont want to think
survival and ret are probably a better fit

nova marsh
#

Sub rogue too

unkempt plaza
#

im being deadass too tho

mystic summit
#

its called "ret" for a reason

unkempt plaza
#

I have 4 chars

jovial hare
unkempt plaza
#

all with 99 parses

#

nothing comes remotely close to arms button bloat

#

ss and rend need to go

#

why would I press that

jovial hare
#

idk this really isnt bloat to me

unkempt plaza
#

just bake that shit into something

jovial hare
#

the weird icon is OP bc i hate the default icon

nova marsh
#

Alright just remove any button that isn't CS, Demo, or main rota (Exe op MS slam)

#

I'm getting deleted for not saying delete slam I know

jovial hare
#

slam is fine, it just needs to actually do dam

nova marsh
#

Oh

#

I forgot bs

unkempt plaza
#

just remove at least 2 buttons and stop every single shit glowing

jovial hare
#

cutscenestorm

unkempt plaza
#

its distracting

flat willow
#

arms has 5 buttons

nova marsh
#

I mean honestly man

#

if that's distracting I'm 90% sure there's a way to turn off proc glow with addons

#

Or like use elvi

jovial hare
#

i dont doubt you can

nova marsh
#

Or just don't use bars and use the CDM instead cuz no glow

#

Like there are genuine ways that already exist to solve that if it annoys you

flat willow
jovial hare
#

cooldown companion can turn them all off

unkempt plaza
#

I know there probably is but arms isnt that far ahead of fury that I would feel like I need to play arms to stay competitive

jovial hare
#

cdc is also goated

unkempt plaza
#

especially considering I have 2 myth track weapons

flat willow
#

the damn ret players are turning every spec in the game into ret

nova marsh
#

I mean blizz already did that for them!

#

Guy s just make evrey ability cast by MS clueless

jovial hare
#

cant stand "remove this shit cus i dont like it" w/ 0 thought arguments other than "me no like"

unkempt plaza
#

I'm just telling myself these dudes in the top keys are playing arms cause they got unlucky in vault

#

and do not have double myth weapons

#

thats why they play arms

nova marsh
#

Then go prove it

#

press n

flat willow
nova marsh
#

and select fury

jovial hare
#

go get r1 fury, get ur temp titles

flat willow
#

these dudes in the top keys that are playing arms are playing arms cuz they made a mistake at character selection and didn't pick unholy

jovial hare
unkempt plaza
#

HAHA

jovial hare
#

i wonder what word i just used that triggered the filter

snow pagoda
#

gimme that torghast power that MS/rampage auto casted a whirlwind with all modifiers

nova marsh
#

That spec plays worse then arms imo

jovial hare
#

i like playing arms cus i get to hit stuff with a big sword and make em bleed

unkempt plaza
#

arms was cool in shadowlands

nova marsh
#

I like how arms plays, I just wish it was better

unkempt plaza
#

when my entire action bar wasnt glowing

flat willow
#

idk unholy plays pretty well imo

nova marsh
#

NA MAN

flat willow
#

i tried a lot of classes this expansion and they were all pretty boring

nova marsh
#

I cannot stand being a tank outside of cds

flat willow
#

dk and warrior feel like they got lucky with the pruning

nova marsh
#

and having nothing rotationally going on for a minute straight

unkempt plaza
#

dude I legit feel like im playing suboptimal when I'm pressing buttons that arent glowing

#

I need therapy

flat willow
#

yeah but unholy deals single target damage

jovial hare
#

u need to take ur adhd meds

nova marsh
#

So does outlaw

flat willow
#

i mean, i guess?

#

unholy is a burst spec for sure

unkempt plaza
#

maybe I will just stick to demo

jovial hare
#

unholy is my problem w/ current class designed, distilled

flat willow
#

feels great on all the bosses with burst phases this season

unkempt plaza
#

its braindead and does more damage

nova marsh
#

Unholy is just a spec I don't vibe with

jovial hare
#

its ALL burst, and nothing else

nova marsh
#

I don't like doing literally nothing valuable outside of army

flat willow
#

i thought your problem was that you hated rend

unkempt plaza
#

I hate button bloat

flat willow
#

doesn't demolock have to tab target their rend

unkempt plaza
#

not rend in particular

proper moth
#

Unholy is the two pump chump dps spec

flat willow
#

demo has the same number of buttons as arms

unkempt plaza
#

it doesnt at all brother

#

demo has like

#

6 buttons

#

2 of which are on a 15 sec cooldown

#

implosion and dreadstalkers

#

demo is easy asf idk how you do not 99 parse on that shit

flat willow
#

yeah and arms has 6 buttons in their rotation

unkempt plaza
#

arms has like idk

#

cleave, slam / heroic strike, rend, mortal strike, execute, sweeping strikes, colossus smash, colossus the other thing

#

fuck that bro

flat willow
#

if you are counting your cds, demolock has way more than 6 buttons

#

and why are counting slam heroic strike as 2 buttons

unkempt plaza
#

I didnt

#

I put it as a slash

#

demo has shadowbolt, demonbolt, hand of guldan

flat willow
#

so cleave slam rend ms execute

unkempt plaza
#

and some 15sec cooldowns

#

dreadstalkers & implosion

honest junco
#

is slayer better when i dont have a shaman in my group?

nova marsh
unkempt plaza
#

I mean

nova marsh
#

Also it's easier to play in pugs

unkempt plaza
#

I have 99th percentile demo logs

honest junco
#

and lower keys? below 12

unkempt plaza
#

the spec is braindead easy

nova marsh
#

Bro

unkempt plaza
#

arms is confusing as hell

nova marsh
#

wow is braindead easy now

flat willow
#

that's nice but you still haven't said why arms is confusing

proper moth
#

It’s the other stuff like Stromboli shock wave wrecking throw that start filling the bars

unkempt plaza
#

because it has 70 buttons and 50 of those are glowing all the time and I dont like that

flat willow
#

I would recommend an interface where your buttons are hidden if the lights are your problem with the spec

smoky kayak
#

wars do have some confusing nuances, though they’re largely micro optimizations which aren’t all that important

smoky kayak
proper moth
#

Archi get colo buffed😩

Hello Guys . after Colossus smash should i finsh my cleave charge before demolish or demolish and than cleave ? taking into account i have 10 stack already

jovial hare
#

cs>demo>cleave spam innit?

nova marsh
#

For the extra damage amp

jovial hare
#

u wanna get demo on cd as fast as possible

unkempt plaza
#

im gonna give up the life of ganking

#

and become a herbalist

proper moth
#

Do you still send it with a certain amount of stacks or just send it on cd

jovial hare
#

hold for 10 i believe? i think thats what biz does

#

id have to rewatch the vid

nova marsh
jovial hare
#

oh

#

unkempt plaza

proper moth
#

Gotcha gotcha

jovial hare
#

biz prob also doesnt play w/ tanks that like to be a bitch about pulling

slow flame
#

send during colossus smash window

unkempt plaza
#

no idea what im doing

wet scroll
#

Hows the 2 target rotation work for m+ slayer arms, is it same as 1 target? How does cleave factor in?

unkempt plaza
#

I will just send colossus smash and cleave and bladestorm

proper moth
#

Slayer is ez

exotic horizon
#

if Demolosh CD came back before Collosus smash ? do i send or hold for CS ?

proper moth
#

Colo has a little more nuance

slow flame
#

hold

#

u only send avatar and ravager if u got CS

jovial hare
#

colo also feels clunky as hell

nova marsh
slow flame
#

and emolish ofc

mystic summit
#

@wet scroll just sweeping strikes and do st

wet scroll
slow flame
#

i fu got the 35% talent cleave > slam at 35%

nova marsh
#

Colo's problem to me is stacks

unkempt plaza
#

what if I just macro sweeping strikes into mortal strike

jovial hare
exotic horizon
nova marsh
#

And ravager

unkempt plaza
#

I mean who gives a shit

slow flame

slayer is rlly good

unkempt plaza
