I can only play early hrs before work, but thanks for the tip

slow saddle
#

Ee bring ap and dmg

#

It fucks

#

Heck u could run uhdk dev monk shaman

untold pewter
#

Right but people don't care about that if they still don't have lust and bress in the party

#

They'll check those boxes first

slow saddle
#

Just give dev lust

untold pewter
#

And maybe we get the leftover spot

kindred breach
#

it's wild warrior still can't lust lmao

slow saddle
#

I think issue is we reeeaaaly need shaman

kindred breach
#

could also be the only tank with lust, big

flat willow
#

I have a solution for the problem of not being able to play without a shaman in the group

untold pewter
#

Change NOTHING in tuning
Give warrior lust and you'll see how suddenly you're getting invited without absolutely any tuning changes

gentle gyro
#

Sometimes I refuse to play without skyfury

#

A bad habit

stoic oyster
#

they gave us "utility" which amounted to spear which is way down the tree and no one will pick, and a really good version of piercing howl which then they nerfed and its shit again

flat willow
#

what if we gave some random class a buff

#

and mages went oom randomly in every fight without that buff

slow saddle
flat willow
#

blizzard would fix that "small" problem in a week

slow saddle
#

Rename warriors banners

flat willow
#

and maybe think that it happening to arms isn't so good a design

slow saddle
#

We bring skyfury

stoic oyster
slow saddle
#

Good

untold pewter
#

I mean fury is super popular
They don't get invited either

It's not about popularity it's just warrior has no "utility" for pugs

slow saddle
#

Its arcaneesque

slow saddle
#

Range meta in raid

dim basalt
#

I get pretty frequent invites as Arms

slow saddle
#

And seeps over into m+

untold pewter
#

Oh 100%

#

And tbh at the end of the day

placid atlas
#

Give us a bress. Yell the shit out of a corpse so that the corpse startled awake back

untold pewter
#

You can always use your key "as a last resort"

#

People can't "not invite" you if you're the lead

stoic oyster
#

question guys, i want to take stance mastery but need to lose a point somewhere, is it worth it? which one can i lose? this is my talents

untold pewter
#

Try without crushing force perhaps

#

Further ST loss for some more aoe

#

But then you get the huge defensive

#

If you need that

stoic oyster
#

but then i cant access bfield commander

#

if i remove crushing fore nodce

that's what farover ran in 21 maisara caverns

dim basalt
#

Oh that way

untold pewter
#

Yeh that

dim basalt
#

nvm

stoic oyster
#

i think he meant javaliner

#

ty dudes yeah thats a dead talent idk why i had it

dim basalt
#

javelineer is too good to drop imo

placid atlas
flat willow
#

don't think there's another way to take stance mastery without killing your damage

stoic oyster
#

is it tho? i dont really take throw talents right now

dim basalt
#

Its just a 2nd kick, pretty valuable

stoic oyster
#

thats true

flat willow
#

someone ask blizzard to swap javelineer and resonant voice

stoic oyster
#

so far i havent had the need for a ranged kick but maybe when i get to really high keys

#

someone ask blizzard to put spear somewhere in the top of the tree.. they give us utility no one can access

placid atlas
kindred breach
#

it's sad because it's not a kick, it's just a debuff

#

can't use it on bosses

dim basalt
#

Dont need stance mastery at all in 18s

#

lol

flat willow
#

it's more about having to take this

#

never have I seen such a piece of shit

stoic oyster
#

i guess good if you take piercing howl/ fear but no one takes that rn

flat willow
#

i'm getting taxed in my damn talent tree

#

irs blizzard

gentle gyro
#

Surely we are getting a full rework in TLT

#

shirley

placid atlas
#

Stance mastery help shit tons if you are pulling your own weight, not just blindly dps. Especially to those who help healer with changing into defensive stance in certain mechanics

stoic oyster
#

im gonna make a shitty warrior talents tier list, we have a lot of those

kind stag
#

im too stupid to take advantage of stance mastery

#

javeliner is so nice though

hushed cloud
#

speced in arms and it feelt so freaking bad, especially in st situations

olive nest
#

oh yeah stance mastery actually owns so hard

#

absolutely should practice using dstance

#

theres a macro for swapping between both stances on the same button

HEY TY

hard juniper
#

Watching some streamers i see them hitting a dummy stacking up heroic might buff before keys, but theirs always stays up. When I do it, the buff goes away after the 10 second countdown. Anyone know the tech?

gentle gyro
#

huh?

#

Nah there is no way

hard juniper
#

Not colossal to be clear. Heroic might. The one that buff up the next colossal smash bonus damage

gentle gyro
#

I understand

#

still no tf

bright pivot
#

is there a way to ignore bird on last bos skyreach?

#

like if i colossus smash

#

as the bird is coming?

stoic oyster
hard juniper
stoic oyster
#

aah nice.. well im a moo moo war so i cant 🙁

hard juniper
#

From what I see they wait to get to 4 or 5 stacks, get a heroic strike proc, then ask for the countdown. At like 2 seconds they heroic strike and meld. I do the same thing but my buff goes away when the 2nd countdown ends inside the key

gentle gyro
#

Idk I just hate stuff like this

#

Git Gud and all that stuff, I understand

#

But this is just plain stupid

stoic oyster
#

hey warriors have always done stupid things for that extra bit of damage

#

stand in fire dps higher

gentle gyro
#

Too bad this ain't TBC anymore

#

And we actually have to do stuff

untold pewter
stoic oyster
#

heroic strike should grant two stacks of master of warfare not one, it does take a while sometimes with bad RNG

vast helm
stoic oyster
#

hmm i hear u but then there wouldnt be a reason to prio heroic strike tho

#

and they really really want us pressing that button

latent moss
gentle gyro
#

It was very good for the affix no?

latent moss
#

i mean in low keys its overkill ye

#

in high keys there is no affix so

#

losing a ranged kick does suck tho

#

its cool asf

gentle gyro
#

Well any shield in general

#

Like gargoyle?

latent moss
#

they explode

#

or get dispelled/immune

dense gale
#

arms have wrecking throw option as fury?, because in fury it works to do high dmg on shields and interrupt some cast, maybe it count to get the 2 stacks if interrupt some

latent moss
#

its in the class tree so yeah

dense gale
#

maybe you should test it with a normal mob caster using it to interrupt and see if you get the 2 stacks

latent moss
#

what stacks

dense gale
latent moss
#

i dont understand what does that have to do with wrecking throw

sturdy flicker
#

Much change for raid next week seems like a bit of a road buff maybe?

#

Slayer a bit better?

wintry scroll
#

Guys im starting to see people insta mark in keys

#

Is there some new addon for marking mobs ?

sturdy flicker
#

Focus macros

wintry scroll
#

Yea but it’s one person marking all casters

#

That’s what i witnessed

#

There is no way he’s that quick

opal jackal
#

what kind of percent buff are we looking at with colossus in 12.0.5

sturdy flicker
#

Normally there a pin giving us the slight buff nerf to raid mplus just don't see that right now

I'm curiosue the same if much is changing

ionic mica
#

was a spreadsheet screenshot someone posted last week

shy cairn
#

i gotta say, 8 percent of whatever col was doing is still not good

#

am i crazy for thinking that?

ionic mica
#

yep 🙂 (to the not doing good bit, not you being crazy)

shy cairn
#

i guess this season doesnt have any bosses that im really scared of, vexamus and crawth dont seem as bad as in dragonflight

ionic mica
#

the end of crawth is rough if its too long but apart from that the aa bosses are fine

shy cairn
#

whenever i try col on the dummy i do literal tank damage

#

guess i need to practice more

ionic mica
#

eh without raidbuffs in keys build it isnt far off

#

a bit above but not a lot

shy cairn
#

It was such an obvious design flaw to split aoe and st in talents even in dragonflight

#

It’s just an incredible dropping the ball that they haven’t fixed it for some classes

proven veldt
#

I think after last titan we're going to see another talent rethink/redesign

#

don't think the current iteration of class tree/spec tree/hero talents is working very well for most classes

thick kelp
#

you must lose something to gain anything

#

Happens with everything relatd to this class, buffs, changes, reworks

radiant patio
#

I assume this was asked a lot, but the changes to arms are purely a nerf? More to Slayer?

#

I guess Col warrior gets a bit more out of the patch with the demolish cdr, but Slayer gets cucked by reap the storm not procing from mortal strike

jade oyster
#

how big of a buff/nerf is slayer arms getting?

umbral sphinx
kindred breach
#

the 5% nerf to practiced strikes is totally not needed, colo and slayer have shit st

hot current
#

yeah how can blizzard decide to nerf colo ms and slam, like our st is equal to a tank, and its getting nerfed??

nova marsh
#

overall

#

it's still not a nerf

#

An odd choice yes

vernal flame
#

i understand the colo hype now

nova marsh
#

But both hero trees got good ST buffs

hot current
#

its not, i agree, but shouldnt we get our st buffed as much a possible, not nerfing our normal rotation ms and slam by 5%

nova marsh
#

I can't complain when colo got actual ST and DW on slam

#

blizz has always been scared of MS being too strong

inner wasp
#

how big of a prio is recrafting my fury wep for arms

#

it's haste mastery instead of haste crit

nova marsh
#

Not really a prio

inner wasp
#

idk how bad im gimping myself

nova marsh
#

Not bad at all really 🤷‍♂️

inner wasp
#

word

nova marsh
#

Arms dosen't hate any stats, we aren't outlaw where our mastery is literally worthless

swift vapor
#

Hello, there is a tl;dr to when play colossus or slayer pls ? ❤️

inner wasp
dim basalt
#

Ive bricked MT and MC +18 both on the end boss in the last 30% hp today

#

Man

inner wasp
#

should've played slayer

radiant patio
dim basalt
inner wasp
#

wouldnt have thrown on the boss thou

nova marsh
#

Tbh terrace is a dungeon where

#

you actually might want more trash damage

#

because the trash is literally the worst part

dim basalt
#

ye

#

Colossus is defo the play there imo

#

In higher keys

nova marsh
#

bosses might take a while

ionic mica
#

The jellyfish is good for Colo at least

#

The other bosses are kinda fine just slow

nova marsh
#

But that dosen't matter if you're dying

#

Yeah

#

The other bosses are just an eternity. They all suck

ionic mica
#

Blow up all the runed spellbreakers and void miniboss guys instead

dim basalt
#

Did 172k on the jellyfish boss

#

Pretty decent

inner wasp
#

does colossus still increase ur size by 5%

#

or is that gone

nova marsh
#

still same 5%

inner wasp
#

does it stack w heart

#

of ancient hunger

nova marsh
#

no clue

inner wasp
#

important

nova marsh
#

The spellbreakers suck

lucid dagger
#

Serious question. What race has best melee animations 🤣

nova marsh
#

I like KT 2hs

#

with a mace or axe

#

Probs zandalari

inner wasp
#

it depends

latent moss
#

nelf

nova marsh
ionic mica
nova marsh
#

those 2h are awful

inner wasp
#

if u want ur animations to be extra, then belf and panda are good
otherwise i like orc

nova marsh
#

No

#

Thjey just are

#

There is literally no worse mob

lucid dagger
#

Like... I might go female belf for riven transmog lol

latent moss
#

dread raven

inner wasp
#

female belf specifically i should've said yea

latent moss
#

in skyreach

ionic mica
#

They're the worst yeah

radiant patio
lucid dagger
latent moss
#

riven from hit moba league of legends

inner wasp
#

O

#

i thought u meant riven mod warframe at first

#

cooked

latent moss
#

i was riven otp

inner wasp
#

i play kled idk

#

:(

wind flicker
latent moss
#

bro plays kled

#

clunky ahh

lucid dagger
#

Like i play 3 champs hwei qiyana and riven 🤣

latent moss
#

just play exhaust

inner wasp
#

but he's my clunky

latent moss
#

i counterpick myself if they fp riven

#

i pick gwen with ign exh

#

and bone plating

#

free matchup

warm fog
#

Big respect

nova marsh
#

And theres some damn good competition for it

ionic mica
#

yeah for sure

#

this season i cant think of many others

#

the dreadflail things in NXP are annoying but they dont just fuck your day up

nova marsh
#

Dreadflail you can kinda live through, at least on 12s and 13s

#

Least for a lil bit

#

Magisters made me regret making a rogue

#

If you run through cloak vanish and for me meld you just die

ionic mica
#

just annoying

#

the spellbreakers being good against non casters feels unfair

#

why do they glaive me i have a sword

nova marsh
#

The spellbreakers honestly are the one mob I think needs a genuine nerf

dim basalt
#

I honestly think theyre fine

nova marsh
#

Ehhhh

ionic mica
#

how far is the bounce range?

nova marsh
#

I think when in higher keys a meld is basically mandatory thats kinda bad

ionic mica
#

maybe if they never bounce cos you position well

#

seemed pretty far in the last one i did

nova marsh
#

Maybe I just need to do more terrace on warr

ionic mica
#

it also depends if your tank is a terrorist and chains those pulls before the old spellbreakers die 🙂

nova marsh
#

I will kill those tanks

#

Espically into the doubble one at the end

ionic mica
#

exactly that 🙂

#

after boss there was a vote to abandon and only me and tank said no

#

had like 5s left

#

many many deaths for bad pulls, but it was a bear so no surprise they were a bit crazy

lucid dagger
#

i dont play melee would you guys reccomend arms? i for example hated assasination and sub rogue and outlaw was fine

nova marsh
lucid dagger
#

well i tried assa cuz i usually love dot specs

#

like affli warlock and spriest

nova marsh
#

Ah

#

Then 50/50

lucid dagger
#

but i honestly struggle with melee

#

and onnly melee i ever succeeded as and enjoyed was enha

#

but my shaman is my elemental main

nova marsh
#

Off specs are a good option

#

Espically if you mainly like casters playing a class with a caster + melee is probably a good way to ease into it imo

lucid dagger
#

honestly gear for offspec is so much truble

#

weapons+trinkets+stats

drifting sparrow
#

Is gaze of the alnseer not that good for arms?? just did a sim and expected it to be much higher but even mythic is only a 0.3% dps increase....

nova marsh
#

It was also nerfed

stoic siren
#

with the upcoming changes, they are saying arms st is going up, but isn't it down because you can't proc reap the storm with ST anymore? or is it beacuse of the bladestorm buff 20%

nova marsh
stoic siren
#

ty

nova marsh
#

Also

#

We still can

#

The sd changes were reverted fully

stoic siren
#

Practiced Strikes now increases Mortal Strike and Slam damage by 15% and Cleave and Whirlwind damage by 15%. Isn't this a nerf?

#

i think its 20%? in game

nova marsh
#

Yes but again overall buffs

brisk sedge
#

it is colossus tho

stoic siren
#

ohh true

nova marsh
#

And colo got cdr buffed to fuck and back that more that makes up for it

#

Srsly the cdr per stack more then doubled

radiant patio
#

Is there any way to turn off dmg numbers for specific spells?

#

I want to turn off rend and deep wounds so i can see better the chunky hits 🥰

nova marsh
#

For dots?

#

Not sure

#

It used to be possible with addons but im not sure if it got deleted

stoic siren
#

used to be with sct but pruned i think

nova marsh
#

Try sct

#

See if it didnt

radiant patio
#

Will do, ty!

brittle rock
#

guys i watched a guide and didnt understand when do i press the cleave in ST.
With the ravager instead of an OP? But wont that plummet the number of mortals in ST?

ionic mica
#

maybe under 35% with mass execute and with ravager?

visual blaze
#

(Stupid arms question) on single target, do you 2x execute before mortal strike(execute phase)

thick kelp
#

yes

#

in most cases

visual blaze
#

Ty sir

green bay
#

what rings are better, the set from nexus or light + the one from pit

vale warren
#

if i get two ton hammer from PoS; should i swap to cape craft instead of sword?

vale warren
#

yes

#

i feel like it'd save me the pain of recrafts? but idk lol i'm so new to retail

nova marsh
#

For me it was worth it to go with arcanoweave over sword

#

With a good hero weapon (I got dawnsong thou)

#

Id sim to doubble check cuz results may vary

reef glade
#

Doubt hero weapon ever beats myth crafted weapon if u have one of those

stoic oyster
#

get the highest ilvl weapon you can its the most important piece of gear

near flax
#

On mythic dragons do i wanna demo on boss or is that not hitting orbs?

#

or do i not care and just wanna get my cleaves out

vague mortar
#

I switched to Arms Colossus from Fury and I have pretty good overall DPS, but my ST is really low, I guess that's normal ?

cursive sun
#

yes

stoic oyster

#

Thank you

#

Is Rend worth using in ST tho? I thought I read that not really but I'm reading something different now

yeah real

#

there's no way we kill this tonight imma be real

#

Only demolish the add sets that you have gorefiends for

yeah

#

I'll just send every other demo on bosses then ig

#

I dont like this boss atm

haughty meadow
#

is there any training dummies that can be acquired in midnight for m+ to get stacks prior to starting the dungeon, I've seen sturdy love fool as an example.

minor gust
#

Ones I know on the top of my head are love fool and fish head

haughty meadow
#

the love fool isnt avaliable though right

minor gust
#

No clue honestly I just tell my rogue buddy to drop something because he has everything

haughty meadow
#

slender sonnet
#

yeah

ionic mica
#

there were still some sets where it all lined up and i demo the orbs but enough where it didnt line up to stop my guild crying about stealing damage

stable fiber
#

its actively more boss dps for you to pad on the adds

minor gust
#

It's not stealing. It's yours by right as the Colossus arms warrior. The stinky DDH are the ones stealing

slender sonnet

This boss is giving me a headache

fury will probably become better on dragons since groups will prob stop running 2 bdks and possibly even 1 bdk

#

ew

#

nah funnel from hitting one orb with cleave surely

#

and 2t from arms too good

stable fiber
#

just depends on comp

mortal crag
#

are the colo changes a buff to ST in m+?

nova marsh
mortal crag
#

or just a buff in general due to way more demolishes?

nova marsh
heavy dune
#

rotation quest here. when I play slayer, if I get enough execute procs bladestorm comes off cooldown well before avatar so I get into a situation where smash comes off cooldown with bladestorm and avatar still has like 45 seconds left until ready.
I can either just blow smash like normal and hold bladestorm for avatar OR
I can blow bladestorm with smash but what usually happens is that smash and avatar come back and bladestorm isn't ready now

mortal crag
#

even in ST @thick kelp ?

thick kelp
mortal crag
#

avatar with smash

#

they dont line up

u just said neutral

#

we fucked up funnel on bird and we chained some pulls a bit wonky

latent moss
#

gg

#

timed next time u get it ez

mortal crag
#

also need to resend aa19

#

xhanon said u can send one small bird on bird boss

#

its like 20s of 2target but

#

if we can somehow make it so only i cleave it

#

then it somehow offsets colossus there

#

@thick kelp do we have numbers on how much u gain from 2target or 3target vs pure ST?

#

cuz i can sim but it doesnt tell me how much damage i do to the main target

#

it just shows dps at the end

minor gust
#

gotta open up the html

#

to see that

mortal crag
#

hmmge

#

then what

minor gust
#

but walhe posted those types of sims awhile back

#

just search his name and look for em

mortal crag
#

ew

#

i have to look for his stuff

mortal crag
#

jesus

#

yeah

#

66k vs 81k vs 110k

#

holy crap

minor gust
#

yeah the funnel is goated

#

we need to somehow get 4pc as a talent

#

or arms is kinda fucked for next patch

ionic mica
#

its okay master tactician will volunteer as tribute

minor gust
#

would be nice

mortal crag
#

I'll have to check the slayer funnel

ionic mica
#

atm we have an imposter in our last talent section

minor gust
#

quite a few dead awful talents could be replaced for 4pc

mortal crag
#

Cuz obv Colo gets more

mortal crag
minor gust
#

hell I would be willing to invest 2 points to get the full value of 4pc

mortal crag
#

Slayer still super fun

#

But Colo feels diffy

#

And honestly 20s Shockwave with knock up is peak

minor gust
#

1 talent for MS CS extension and another for cleave CS extension

thick kelp
ionic mica

sign me up

#

somehow this is a "boring" s1 tier set

and its just insane

There's a cook for every dungeon to funnel almost every boss

I finish bird around 72k w no funnel

just you wait

mortal crag
#

On our 19 that we 1shot btw

#

We funneled vexamus

#

And last boss we had 5min so we killed the 2 echo knights before boss

#

Instead of funneling them

#

Cuz safe and time

minor gust

mortal crag
#

30s of 3target Equalizes ur damage from dogshit to normal

minor gust
#

yeah fair

latent moss
#

is a sketchy pull

mortal crag
#

I think next week we send 19 for either timer improve or try to smooth it out for a 20

#

Aa20 nearly impossible for physical rn

#

Monksea best timer was 2min left

latent moss
#

we almost timed 20 np after me dying on 2nd pull to melee and wasting like 2mins

#

we did right side in like

#

3 pulls

#

aug pug died to acast

#

tank tried to salvage and got shot

#

gg

#

was timed

#

we were somehow ahead on timer

mortal crag
#

I found my tank week 1 doing 14s

latent moss
#

xd

mortal crag
#

Lol

#

Now xhanon added him to bnet and called him good tanker

minor gust
#

deserved for bringing an aug to a key

mortal crag
#

They grow up so fast

latent moss
#

ye ion know we were trying to find someone

#

for like 20 minutes

#

ig no one pugging 20s

minor gust
#

damn

mortal crag
#

Nope

minor gust
#

usually EU has a pretty insane pug scene

slender sonnet
latent moss
#

and rough key

#

i think

#

tho lowk if u dont deplete on left side

#

its timed

#

rest is easy

minor gust
#

maybe I havent checked 20s for NA cuz im only doing 17s right now

#

but I doubt theres even anything on NA cuz were usually far behind

nova marsh
#

na gamers suck

slender sonnet

I've not made it past 15s yet

Could you tell the people in +19 pos to not DoT the necrowhisperer when caged in PoS for first boss funnel

#

Regards, Dr. Philliam

latent moss
hasty pumice
#

I'd appreciate feedback

#

I saw that 5 times now

#

Just stop touching it, I want infinite funnel

minor gust
#

dude ive done Pit 3 times with a dk that grips the Necro into the boss when it was about to be ccd

latent moss
#

reportable

#

surely

hasty pumice
#

Smartest DK vs dumbest warrior?

#

Genuine question

#

Did you guys have one blaster DK

hasty pumice
#

In high keys

latent moss
#

no

#

ive never seen

#

dk beat anyone

#

legit never

#

even the chinese doing 20s 21s

#

dk always bottom

hasty pumice
#

Same

latent moss
#

idk why are they playingi t over devourer/demo

minor gust
#

prob lazy and just want grips lol

hasty pumice
#

When I'm at 200-220k

#

They're at 160k

ionic mica
#

tww got tanks addicted to grips

hasty pumice
#

And they don't blast on ST / prio either

#

Legit what's the point

ionic mica
#

and healers addicted to ams

nocturne ravine
#

What are you guys doing to work around the single target damage? I feel like I’m missing something when it comes to boss fights to do more damage.

minor gust
#

pull 2 extra mobs onto the boss

#

great work around

hybrid needle
#

Yell at the tank or cry in a corner

nocturne ravine
#

👍

hasty pumice
#

Cry

#

Hope your tank and team wants you to have funnel

#

If you don't get it, cry

nocturne ravine
#

Glad I asked lol

hasty pumice
#

If you overtime the key because of it

#

Ping them

minor gust
#

next best option just play slayer if it bothers you that much

hasty pumice
#

Ye

#

Have fun joining a key without shaman as col

#

I hope you enjoy charge weaving on cd

hybrid needle
#

Wont coll leave slayer in the dust in 3 days

minor gust
#

slayer will still own

nocturne ravine
#

Still new to arms running colossus. Just trying to make sure I am not missing anything.

nova marsh
#

slayer is better in practice then on paper

hasty pumice
#

If you have full uptime without BL and pot you likely gonna have 60-65k st max

nocturne ravine
#

Gotcha

hasty pumice
#

With funnel that dies quickly I often have like 95-115k at the end of a ST boss

#

If funnel lives the entire time 150-200k+ depending on context

#

E.g. first boss in nexus

nocturne ravine
#

Cool

hasty pumice
#

My tank gives me the two core guys as funnel

#

With full CDs I spike up to 400k+ and then by the end I chill at 110-130k

#

Funnel is huge

nocturne ravine
#

Shit

hasty pumice
#

But don't expect it in lower keys

#

Even in +19 I don't get it in pugs often

#

It's a bit infuriating

minor gust
#

Hence slayer has a smoother time while pugging keys

nocturne ravine
#

That’s good to know

minor gust
#

only funnel you will see is the obvious ones like Pit first boss

#

while pugging

hasty pumice
#

Yeah though I do think at a certain key level slayer is never worth it anymore

minor gust
#

not really

hasty pumice
#

Cause mobs live so long where the aoe really shines

minor gust
#

thats key level hasnt even been done yet

#

slayer has comfortably been apart of and done 20s

hasty pumice
#

I'm not saying you can't use it there lol

#

You can clear everything as slayer

umbral badger
#

guys i need to ask, when you guys play slayer arms do you "which i have less experience with tbh" do you guys feel like your ST dps is so RNG?

hasty pumice
#

But I'm confident col is just almost always better

umbral badger
#

like even when i revisit my fight and i did the exact same rotational play without mistakes almost and yet my dps is like different every fight

#

lol

#

and it is confusing me

minor gust
hasty pumice
#

The saviour of colossus soon

minor gust
#

still gonna play it because slayer is still good

#

why should i care about doing more dmg when I still out dmg everyone I play with as slayer

umbral badger
#

i am not gonna touch slayer i think after 12.0.5

#

how much more ST is it gonnab e ?

latent moss
#

like 10%

umbral badger
#

wait seriously still 10%

latent moss
#

25% less aoe

stable fiber
umbral badger
#

for slayer ?

latent moss
#

at all counts basically

stable fiber
#

had AWFUL rng on the april 7th log

umbral badger
hybrid needle
#

Imagine havng alnseer

umbral badger
#

on varasious

latent moss
umbral badger
#

and each time i get something diferent with slayer

#

i hate it

stable fiber
#

bud

latent moss
#

ye ik i was joking xdd

umbral badger
#

so is slayer gonna be 10% more dps than colossus for real ?

#

after 12.0.5

minor gust
stable fiber
#

for ST dps probably still yeah

#

idk if its 10%,

#

it should still be better though

umbral badger
#

10% = i will still be forced to slayer sometimes which i'd hate

latent moss
#

its 10% of 0 so

#

u will still play slayer in algethar

hybrid needle
#

Atleast we consistantly top Perform at vanguard okayge

umbral badger
latent moss
#

st slop dungeon

minor gust
#

dont worry colo getting that ST RNG too

#

have fun never critting your MS

#

so Demo desyncs

umbral badger
#

dunno could be perception shit

minor gust
umbral badger
minor gust
#

until RNG happens

umbral badger
#

but on AOE i had the rng

minor gust
#

no crits no tac procs

umbral badger
#

of 1 demo or 2

#

like in PTR aoe i had the rng of one or 2 demos on 1 CS

minor gust
#

GG shits desynced when it shouldnt be and you feel bad

#

at least thats how I felt playing it

hybrid needle
#

What dung are u guys going to use your extra rolls on? Pit ?

umbral badger
#

so in AoE in ptr sometimes demo is ready last 2 or 3 seconds of cs

#

and sometimes never

umbral badger
minor gust
#

Colo aoe still very fun tho

#

I just dont have fun with it in ST gameplay wise

stable fiber
#

oh yeah chimaerus is prob a good RR boss

latent moss
#

ye im going chimaerus

#

for roll

umbral badger
#

there are 2000 classes that need trinket and warrior not top prio

stable fiber
#

boots you can RR, trinket you can RR

#

i think the tier from chim isnt gloves afaik

hybrid needle
#

Just pug with random loot and get rng god to help you out

latent moss
#

btw

#

go prot loot spec

#

u cant get the oozing

#

visage

minor gust
#

tech

latent moss
#

u can only get gaze/tier chest/feet

stable fiber
#

oh yeah if u go prot loot spec ur guranteed a bis piece every RR

#

W tech

umbral badger
#

so chimaerus is the wya to go for sure

#

bro vaelgor nad ezzorak are disgusting when they put on you the first beam

#

slender sonnet
#

what is the chim trink actually good for us or what

stable fiber
slender sonnet
#

it always sim so bad for me

stable fiber
#

i think you want vorasius heart and plume tho

slender sonnet
stable fiber
#

myth chim trinket will sim better then a 276 plume

#

plume on myth a lot harder to get then chim trinket for most people

carmine iris
#

hey guys quick q, on opener and I doing CS into 4cleave demo or CS into demo 4 cleave? seen both

thick kelp

minor gust
carmine iris
#

why ms

thick kelp
#

more cm

carmine iris
#

for buff

minor gust
#

to kinda the 3 trinkets are all pretty equal

carmine iris
#

ok

#

so if Im openeing with 10 stacks

thick kelp
#

cs demo

#

cleave cleave cleave cleave

stable fiber
#

if opening with 10 stacks cs -> demo -> 4x cleaves

carmine iris
#

aight so its jsut stack dependent

stable fiber
#

yup

carmine iris
#

word ty kings

slender sonnet
thick kelp
#

(tnaks and heals included)

slender sonnet
#

so if I pull it mythic from my vault I take it

stable fiber

umbral badger
odd leaf

heya, is arms going up with new patch or not really?

stable fiber
stable fiber
#

the bug was pretty gross though lmfao...

umbral badger

#

yo someone tell crit that Lura is an arms boss

fast warren
#

hello question i heard colo is better for dragons and im not sure how. are you supposed to be able to sweep on both dragons? theyre ususally tanked far apart in my experience

nova marsh
#

If you have dks to grip evrey time, you just skyrocket

#

and there are peroiditic points of 2 targ

fast warren
#

so save colo demo for adds?

#

mythic makes more sense, im in heroic atm and adds die in 2s

minor gust
#

bosses are together the whole fight in mythic

nova marsh
#

ye if you're in heroic the only boss you play colo is vanguard

fast warren
#

makes sense ty lads

nova marsh
#

One last key

#

And then I can just play warrior!

full obsidian
#

Dahell you playin now

daring heron
#

i prolly will try arms on it next week

umbral badger
reef glade
daring heron
#

not demo on lura

reef glade
#

no way colo better than slayer yea

umbral badger
#

i wanna see a round of critcakes with double hte demos in m+

#

the hate in his eyes for the skill is fun to watch

latent moss
#

gaze might not be the move

#

i will still roll chimaerus

#

drops 3 bis pieces

daring prairie
#

Just use both

#

thats a .4% damage inc

viscid mica
#

How do you sim m+? I do Patchwerk x7 1:30 min, does it make sense?

rose belfry
#

anyone can help with a log review ?

carmine iris
#

did they remove th ebuff stacking before keys?

full obsidian
#

Just sime single target and equip that way

nova marsh
#

Guys

#

Yall ever see cursed keys

quick acorn
#

Do we align bladestorm and colossus Smash in m+ for packs?

On the other hand, the puzzlebpx trinket.. should I try to use It on every other Avatar or just on CD with a colossus Smash available?

nova marsh
#

evreyhthing should go into CS, with the expection of demo on tuseday

#

DEmo is just shotgun that shit

halcyon void
#

so we lose reap the storm from mortal strike, but gain more deep wounds damage from mortal wounds talent on single target at least

nova marsh
#

And Demo gains infinity more CDR

halcyon void
#

are we looking at gain/loss or just neutral damage changes?

wind hatch
#

slayer is st gain and aoe loss

#

colo is st gain and aoe neutral

mortal crag
#

what are we sending 298

halcyon void
#

alright ty

mortal crag
#

whats the ST gain

#

% wise

astral yarrow
mortal crag
#

weapon

astral yarrow
#

ding ding ding

mortal crag
#

opa

astral yarrow
#

although that is prolly not for a few weeks though

mortal crag
#

does that mean we 298 weapon + double arcanowave?

astral yarrow
#

nobody knows the timeline for ilvl on wep + trinkets

mortal crag
#

wym on trinkets

#

isnt it only 1 item and its on reset?

astral yarrow
astral yarrow
#

ilvl gains may or may not be

mortal crag
#

so whats the ST gain from buff

mortal crag
#

am i hallucinating

mortal crag
astral yarrow
#

if not theres some talk about adding it

#

idk if archi gets around to it

astral yarrow
mortal crag
#

There's no numbers in there regarding the final amount

#

On the gain loss etc

wind hatch
#

colo was like 8% and slayer was 3%

astral yarrow
#

you can do the comparison between raidbots and mimiron

#

i cant find numbers in the relevant channels and i cba digging for them

raw sapphire
#

With the dominance of the colossus change are we now pressing demolish on cooldown?

cursive sun
#

does warr do anything prepull this season?

vale warren
#

Battleshout :3

cursive sun
#

i saw crit doing it

#

but idk

#

was he stacking rage

vale warren
#

Crit IS ranked 5th world. So he would know

#

I think there is a rage stack pre pull thing, that was mentioned before. I don’t know if it’s a MUST.

raw sapphire
#

Im not the biggest fan of the dominance of the colossus change. I liked it that demolish and colossus smash lined up nicely

nova marsh
#

?

#

They align better now for st thou

raw sapphire
#

doesnt it break in aoe though

ionic mica
#

in aoe you get demo back first

#

but next reset youll just send twice per cs i think

#

hopefully it lines up in ST and you get 2 per CS in aoe

#

would be comfy

halcyon valve
#

In aoe you kinda just get more demolishes which is awesome

rare kite
novel herald
#

hey guys i heard arms will have some changes these next weeks, is that a buff or a nerf tldr?

plain violet
#

Do we know how the 0.5 "changes" will affect our dungeon DPS? I was messing around on dummies on the PTR for a bit and it definitely felt like i was doing less damage than on live.

minor gust
#

ST buffs for both very minor aoe nerf for both

finite wasp
#

how much is aoe nerf for colussus next week?

#

ik its very slight but does anyone know exact

paper dove
paper dove
#

but with a 9% single and 2 target increase

finite wasp
mortal crag
#

WHAT

#

9% ST GAIN?

plain violet
#

I didn't feel the changes as a ST buff for colossus at all, you still have to wait for demo+warbreaker to line up and the deep wounds are negligible, is it really that crazy?

minor gust
charred brook
#

Is there actual math done on the arms changes

charred brook
#

Where is the col aoe nerf calculated from

finite wasp
minor gust
charred brook
#

Kk

nova marsh
#

And the dw changes arent

#

I think dw has like 100% uptime

charred brook
#

What's the col aoe nerf coming from?

#

I know 1 less cleave stack

plain violet
# remote talon "feel"

i tried it out, had no effect because you just barely overcap on might by the time warbreaker is back

charred brook
#

But we can shotgun demo now a bit

mortal crag
#

1 less cleave and 20% to 15% iirc

#

And mortal wounds iirc

remote talon
#

all arms is getting at least somewhat of an aoe nerf from not being able to apply deep wounds with cleave, among other things

minor gust
#

Nerfs to colo aoe is counteracted by the demo cdr change

charred brook
#

Thats what I was hoping for

mortal crag
#

So the change fixes it

novel herald
#

deep wounds is not mortal wounds

minor gust
#

yes it is

nova marsh
mortal crag
#

Like on some bosses I end up having to hold demo for 15s to line it up with my next colo

minor gust
#

plz I dont wanna go through this again

nova marsh
#

Read the dw talent name

mortal crag
nova marsh
mortal crag
plain violet
#

the 2 target buff is visible on meters, because the might overcap is significant, but i only got another 3+ seconds demo cdr on single target

minor gust
#

bro the last guy who tried saying DW and MW are two different things

#

sent me off a cliff

mortal crag
#

How much do we get from 2 target

#

So it's an even bigger st funnel on 2 target?

nova marsh
#

It was me bozo

#

I sent you off a cliff

minor gust
#

It wasnt you

nova marsh
minor gust
#

doubles at 3T not 2T

nova marsh
#

Oh I genuinely dont remeber the last time we had this

#

God damn blizz and their shitty naming

plain violet
#

They really doubled down on all the problems with colossus with these changes, you are already relying on your route's pulling bonus mobs onto bosses to make up for shortcomings on single target, this is only going to make that more mandatory

nova marsh
#

I mean

#

It already is

#

And colo flat out has better st now

minor gust
#

it doesnt

plain violet
#

do you have numbers to back this up?

nova marsh
#

Which i aassume is from sims

minor gust
#

thats not ST xD

nova marsh
#

Oh

#

So colo st is still eternally fucked

#

I retract all statements

plain violet
#

i swear i see people dropping all kinds of random estimates with no sources.

nova marsh
#

Better but still fucked

minor gust
#

well the buff amount is but colo does not have better ST than slayer still

#

that has not changed

nova marsh
#

I dont think it needs to

#

Just colo to have reasonable st

#

Cuz rn....it dosent

minor gust
#

im just correcting your earlier statement

mortal crag
#

2t is like 25% increase to st

nova marsh
mortal crag
#

3t is a 75%

#

Idc I'll double down on it

nova marsh
#

Flame me bro

#

Do it

mortal crag
#

I just did

nova marsh
#

Thats not flame

nova marsh
#

Best insult I've had all day

mortal crag
#

Bouta colossus smash ur mom btw

#

ETA GG

nova marsh
#

THERE WE GO

#

Now ur flaming in arms warrior

mortal crag
#

To solidify Colo as a pick for all dungs

#

U can funnel ALMOST all bosses in almost all keys anyway

plenty you cant
