Hope it feels good being toxic to a simple question apprently that you did not know the answer to

Nvm your sry for bothering you gokke, if you dont get it its okay

👋 Im off to bed soon, but just wanted to chime in that the DW on "Slam change" does mean prio.
You may be confusing "priority damage" with "less damage overall".

You're correct that Cleave applied DW to everything is more dps overall. This is going away.

Now, Cleave will only apply DW to the 1-2 targets affected by your Fervor of Battle instead. This is less damage overall (for DW), but now DW is exclusively applied to your main target + a single swept target. This means you're doing more damage to a prioritized target. It's less dps than before, but technically more priority focused.

elfin kindle
#

Go be rude to strangers if that makes you feel empowered or good at wow

elfin kindle
#

But yes if ill do more st ill do more prio, but its still st buff not prio buff

#

Prio buff is two fob for example, thats not a st buff

dire hinge
#

right, but all changes to arm's single target, by nature, impact our Priority DPS in AoE thanks to spells like Sweeping Strikes and Fervor of Battle.
We are not "single target vs AoE", we are "single target vs priority AoE"

minor gust
#

really the main buff is the demo cdr

#

that change a lone is massive

#

the slam DW shit who cares

#

Demo cdr is carrying colo in 12.05

dire hinge
#

Yeah, being able to demo more frequently means the first 2 strike os Demo (which are affected by Sweeping Strikes) are being sent 2x more frequently

#

and, of course, big bonk.

minor gust
#

First two hits of Demo are big prio dmg

#

now in aoe you are casting demo every 15 sec

#

double the demo casts in aoe is big

#

which means bigger prio

dire hinge
# elfin kindle Prio buff is two fob for example, thats not a st buff

As long as have Sweeping Strikes, all of our ST buffs are forever tied to doing more Priority damage
I feel like you're stuck on some semantics here a little bit.
While you're in AoE you still do "single target" abilities, but via SS you're doing Priority damage.

Unless blizzard stops us from doing MS in AoE that'll always be the case

minor gust
#

insert +1 reaction image here if I was yellow

dire hinge
#

same with Demo, same with FoB

#

but yeah Frozenbozo said it best: dont get too hung up on things just press buttons

elfin kindle
#

Its primarily a ST buff not a priority buff, but i understand that a st buff buffs priority

smoky kayak
#

so there's a couple things to unpack here

full obsidian
#

Is demo bae tomorrow in m+?

#

Looks like it right?

forest dove
#

Seeing as how in aoe, demolish is pretty well synced up with colossal smash, do we foresee the increased CDR coming tomorrow on demolish causing us to ever send demolish without CS?

minor gust
smoky kayak
#

single target and priority are largely used interchangeably, even if they might not always refer to the exact same thing

  • most single target damage is priority damage
  • not all priority damage is necessarily single target

#

Also the Demolish CDR change doesn't really result in more casts of Demolish, so much as more consistent use of Demolish - you still want to use it during Colossus Smash, so you're limited by its cooldown instead, but the change pretty much ensures that you're going to have Demolish off cooldown by the time Colossus Smash comes back

  • in rare situations you may get two Demos in one Colossus Smash, you need Hero + Haste procs + extension to make it happen, so it's not a regular thing
  • if you're a mega Demo enjoyer, you can just ignore CS entirely and press Demo on cooldown if you want; it's not better, but it's not significantly worse either, and it will result in a couple more Demolishes over time
elfin kindle
nova marsh
#

So essentially its just for alignment

minor gust
#

It's basically in aoe you are doing CS - demo - demo - CS - Demo and that third demo always comes up mid 2nd CS duration and it kinda just flows from there

actually I was talking about both

minor gust
dim basalt
#

^

smoky kayak
#

because you're holding for Colossus Smash

#

throwing Demo outside of CS just misaligns them

elfin kindle
#

Thats for no downtime situations tho i assume

dim basalt
#

hmm

minor gust
#

But the third demo is always in CS tho

elfin kindle
#

Mplus is a bit different

smoky kayak
nova marsh
#

So wait

smoky kayak
#

you want to keep Demo during CS because Demo triggers multiple additional effects that all stack well together

  • CS damage buff
  • Demo haste buff
  • Demo damage debuff
    and that overlap is very powerful
nova marsh
#

Does this mean we get no rota changes?

#

For colo?

smoky kayak
nova marsh
#

Oh I forgot about no cleave in st

#

thank god btw

we experimented with that, but it never came out any better

minor gust
#

Hmm

limber dirge
#

Me hold button for when can push 2 button consecutively. Me understand.

minor gust
#

That still just seems so weird and bad. The CDR change may as well not be anything for aoe if you have to hold Demo for CS

safe island
#

i’m just gonna press slam now. im a warrior

smoky kayak
#

in both single and multitarget, you always want to Demolish during Colossus Smash

  • in single target, just send it immediately, number of stacks doesn't really matter all that much

in multitarget, there's a little more leeway for optimization

  • if you 10 stacks of Colossal Might, use it immediately (or as soon as you get them)
  • if you don't reach 10 stacks, use it a couple seconds before Colossus Smash ends, just to get it on cooldown before the next cycle
  • or if you want to be easy mode, just send it at the start of Colossus Smash
smoky kayak
#

Also just throwing Demo on CD was like a 0.3-0.4% difference so dracthyr_shrug

minor gust
#

That's something I might just do anyways then lol

#

There's so many other benefits to demo on cd

#

Than just dmg

nova marsh
#

Tbh since I've already practiced holding for cs ill probably just do it anyways

#

Its easier to remeber

minor gust
#

You get the DR and more bleed healing which is something to account for

buoyant axle
#

More Demo more haste

smoky kayak
#

There are always individual situations to consider, if you're playing a high haste gamer with good lust timings, plus banner, and some other shit, you may very well have a better time (or at least feel better) throwing Demo on your own cadence

but for the most part, consistency is king in WoW, especially when it comes to trying to write common guides that are easily digestible to the average player; for the purposes of those guides, I recommend just using it during Colossus Smash for the time being

  • it's easy to time
  • it's burstier
  • it's less prone to being wasted if something doesn't line up well at some point
    remember, most M+ isn't 5m of straight combat with a consistent number of targets - there's downtime, movement, mob collection, and mechanics that all get in the way of just blasting everything on CD the moment it becomes available

Guidion

elfin kindle
#

With extra downtime and gathering pulls etc in mplus (atleast in my higher keys) it might me a col send sometimes without cs, depending on how it ligns up

smoky kayak
#

I would say it's probably the other way around, especially for that first use of Demolish which doesn't already have 10 stacks, but you do you - as long as you're pushing buttons, it's not gonna make a profound difference either way

elfin kindle
#

My first use generally always has 10, i get my tank to kegsmash and i stack while gathering with ms op

minor gust
#

It's def another you could make arguments for both situation. If the difference is minimal at the end of the day

#

Yeah in M+ it's easy to get 10 for first demo

#

Especially when your able to pre SS

nova marsh

Espically since we cant spam rend...for some reason

what are we going to play in raid then?

It wouldn't surprise me if the buff was just kinda forgotten for realese

dusk lake

Can anyone sensibly comment on how negatively slayer will be impacted? I’m not a huge demo enjoyer myself

nova marsh

They seemed more focused on getting the reap changes right

nova marsh

Thats basically the most sensible answer ur gonna get

Yeah i read that but i meant more like as the end result in practice. I guess ill have to test it out

Fingers crossed slarms will not be far behind in m+

It's not gonna be far behind it's gonna be behind Colo.

#

Your still gonna keep up with other specs

#

And top overall

smoky kayak
# minor gust Unless I'm reading something wrong

went ahead and ran this again btw, it does come closer together as you get into higher numbers of targets; I would say that if you just wanna throw Demo on CD, it's very safe to do so, but it's still probably best to think about what's happening in the pull and what's coming up next, so use your best judgement

dusk lake
smoky kayak
#

throwing it strictly on CD is also literally the difference of one extra Demolish cast over 5 minutes by the way

dim basalt
#

Reduce max CM stacks from 10 to 5 ragey

minor gust
smoky kayak
#

for example, this isn't really a "fair" sim because it's only 40 seconds, but you can see that in a specific period of burst, it's much better to align with CS

minor gust
#

It also just feels infinitely better sending on CD gameplay wise with how much CDR you can get

smoky kayak
#

and that's why I believe that just syncing it with Colossus Smash results in the most consistent results overall, but I will grant that it may feel better for some players to just throw it on CD

With the 10% dr is it not worth to do in high keys?

Nice to have but not something you play around

minor gust
#

It's hard to quantify

smoky kayak
toxic oak
#

Not dependent, but say you get demoliosh before unavoidable aoe damage where you normally go defensive stance, you could play around it?

smoky kayak
#

you should really just be working on identifying what causes those high bursts of damage and either stopping or turtling them with DStance/SR/etc

nova marsh
toxic oak
#

Not arguing on that at all

smoky kayak
dim basalt
#

Just do your healer a favor and press dstance

balmy kindle
smoky kayak
#

kinda begs the question - which is a better tradeoff of damage:defensive?

  • Lowering your output by using Defensive Stance
  • or using Demolish at an inopportune time?
toxic oak
#

I would never hold til aoe damage for the dr, that was not what I meant. But I get what you're saying

smoky kayak
#

and the answer to that can vary from moment to moment, right? Maybe you have Demo off cooldown, but you're not in an active position to really hit more than a couple targets with it... in which case we're talking about a more pronounced damage loss than the usual diff of "during CS or on CD"

vast hinge
#

the dps output being lower by being in dstance is negligible lol, you just gotta use it and switch righ tback 3 sec later

#

not like youre gonna sit in dstance for the entire fight after the dmg spike is over

dire hinge
#

Haha yeah who would do that sweat

minor gust
#

You aren't relying on the demo DR but it's still a passive benefit with a higher uptime with demo on CD is what I'm understanding. Which may or may not be useful or matter

#

Might be a dumb question but in 2 target colossus, do we only push cleave at 3 stacks of collateral damage DURING ravager? Or do we use it regardless of ravager or <35% HP?

But they could lowkey just copy slayer. Just remove MBG and give cdr from MS or something

So shit actually lines up

nova marsh

Honestly idc about alignment

#

Id rather have the cs node

To make cs fuck for colo

combine cleave and mortal strike 😄 make mortal strike just cleave in multi target and its all fixed

Rend is dead, DN is dead, HS is just good for stacks, even with FoB its meh

# smoky kayak single target and priority are largely used interchangeably, even if they might ...

I’m having a hard time understanding how the changes amount to an 8% prio buff. Slam proccing deep wounds instead of cleave doesn’t change prio damage unless deep wounds from slam hits harder than from cleave? And 2 additional demolishes every 5 minutes can’t be that much. Considering the nerfs to cleave and ms, how is it not a prio nerf as well as an aoe nerf? Prio here being the damage you deal to one specific target in a pull with 3+ targets.

I do understand how it can be a single target buff.

how do you sim for colossus ?

single target and aoe patchwerk at X duration

I was doing 1 target 5 min / 5 targets 5 min and 5 targets 1,5 min

bronze nest
#

im doing that as well but obviously I get different results 😄

trail lantern
#

well these are different scenarios 🙂

bronze nest
#

yeah but which to choose ? 😄

thick kelp
#

which ever scenario fits your need

bronze nest
#

it would be great DungeonSlice to work 😄

MOST people sim with 1t X mins

Really weird

Yesterday I was in skyreach 19 with demolock, ele shammy and me colossus

#

The boss damage was super ass and I thought I won't join that comp anymore

I don't get to play with casters often but the lead did not cook with 3 people who don't deal boss damage

i thought demolock fucked

This key is living in my head rent free

I thought so too but no demolock fucks on bosses

Feral is pretty on par with col arms

in overall

Good advice, thank you

And when one of them is in a key they can recommend you for example

How do we sim for mplus as arms?

#

QUESTION : In this arm slayer build for crown mythic, is there a talent that allows funneling other than the one I circled in red ?

thick kelp
#

but play full St on crown mythic

#

its fake there

trail ingot
thick kelp
#

its irrelevant amount of rage in the grand scheme of thigns, you take it for pathing

#

as its still a dmg gain for fob which is dead on St

trail ingot
#

Sorry but what mean you mean by « pathing » and fob ?

#

You mean from mob to an other mob ?

thick kelp
#

pathing -> taking a talent to reach the next talent

#

fob = fervor of battle talent, which works against 3 or more targets

trail ingot
#

Ok thank

clever crag
#

Any tips on myth raid as arms ? Ive been put in as arms

mild sierra
#

the raid as a whole?

trail ingot
#

The thing is, i don’t really understand the big different in damage from war arm and fury on crown mythic, did you know why ?

thick kelp
#

sweep and cleave as much as u ca

thick kelp
mild sierra
#

the diff isnt even that big on logs

#

but fury does negative ST dmg

#

on a ST boss

clever crag
mortal crag
#

Arms is full st for like 6 bosses

#

2 pure Colo fights

clever crag
#

Fury cleaves by existing tho lol

mild sierra
mortal crag
#

And maybe like 1 slayer boss with some adds

mortal crag
#

Throughout the whole fight

#

ESPECIALLY during the end

clever crag
#

Thats perfection for arms

#

Same as seat 2nd boss

mild sierra
mortal crag
#

You cannot get a better arms fight lol

mortal crag
#

I play full st arms on crown

#

We just started prog on it

clever crag
#

The 2 target cleave isnt that good tho I feel

mortal crag
#

It's good

clever crag
#

It used to be insane

#

In like DF

mortal crag
#

It's not insane but it's good

#

You just play full st

mild sierra
#

2T cleave is good in a talent build for it

mortal crag
#

You still sweep

sand prairie
#

is it me or do you also have sometimes rage problems in colossus?

mortal crag
#

It's colossus

clever crag
#

Yeah its good ofc but not that good where youd just jump over everybody on 2t

clever crag
#

Still have to chargeweave tho lol

sand prairie
#

ye saman makes it easier but even with i sometimes have downtimes

mortal crag
#

In pure ST even with shammy buff u can run into rage issues

sand prairie
#

especially execute

clever crag
#

It is what it is

mortal crag
#

Because of that reason

clever crag
#

Yeah execute is insta rage starve

thick kelp
#

theres a reason why colossu doesnt execute without SD or under 75 rage

mortal crag
#

Executing below like 70 rage with no SD proc is giga death

#

Walhe omg I just feel crafted thst 70

#

Twinsied

#

Arms really is braindead isn't it huh

thick kelp
#

if you have 50 rage and need to press a rage spender you slam

#

even in exe phase

thick kelp
mortal crag
#

SLAM MY BELOVED

clever crag
#

Fish for hs atleast

mortal crag
#

Sometimes I send 50 slams in a row

#

Cuz I can

clever crag
#

Hs good

sand prairie
#

yea yea but i also run out of rage with lamming sometime, well was without a shaman and maybe giga unlucky with crits

mortal crag
#

Just crit more

#

Walhe told me to and now it helps a lot

clever crag
#

Charge weave then

thick kelp
candid garden
#

I want that megaslam thing back

#

Next slam 30x dmg

mortal crag
#

Make it so if u slam 4 times the 5th one is free

#

LUL

#

Like in a row

clever crag
#

I want slayer execute with colo aoe rotation

thick kelp
#

so slarms?

clever crag
#

Yes

thick kelp
#

just larp your bs=demo

clever crag
#

I miss ravager

mortal crag
#

But Colo execute feels great

clever crag
#

Btw does anyone ever play spear in m+ ? Or is that just meme pvp talent

mortal crag
#

Like the phase not the button lol

clever crag
thick kelp
#

BUT its there in the apl so you can sim

mortal crag
#

Idk I never starve cuz I don't press execute unless sd proc

clever crag
#

It feels great when its 3 targets and rav comes up on exe phase

mortal crag
#

I'd rather have fun playing and lose 1% than press exec

mortal crag

Nothing better than literally annihilating the books in mt

Seat is just a rollercoaster of emotions for Colo

thick kelp

you get CS + demo back for tentacles

mortal crag
#

Idk, for full melee it's horrible

thick kelp

so you can solo a 2group

mortal crag
#

Maybe it's cuz we have assa

#

Yeye but

#

Outside of that I mean

#

Just

#

God I hate high movement shit

yeah assa is so ass for that boss

#

sub could own the tentacles but

Hmm didnt notice anything reflected there

the tentacles come at :30 and then after 1 min

mortal crag
#

U can taunt lura right before she does disentigrate

ornate raven
#

Yoo guys do you use in ST execute only with sudden doom if you dont have Deep wounds talent? This for m+ build.

mortal crag
#

But we didn't seem to see any damage on it

mortal crag
#

Can't send demo on pull though

#

Maybe with buff i can

#

Cuz of faster stacking

thick kelp
#

Surely with buff u can

mortal crag

We do try to get some funnel in tho

You could get giga unlucky w procs and not have bs

#

What about skyreach?

#

Last boss kinda rough

#

We funnel it

#

But

hard juniper
#

Probably awful and 2t is better as colo

mortal crag
#

It'd be easier without it

#

We funnel it on 19

#

So it's fine

But yeah windspire and seat I guess r high value and semi free

Windspire has way stone right?

#

guys should i use the cleave 4 times in a row at the aoe pull, or go straight to the demo (i try to do 2xMS while the tank is gathering)

#

if no, should i press them after the demo? Or keep the ms-cleave rotation

thick kelp
#

cleave first if you have less than 10 stacks of CM

brittle rock
#

so its ms-op-ms-cleave x4-cs-demo?

#

or up to 10 stacks

thick kelp
#

no its cs cleave cleave cleave cleave ms demo

brittle rock
#

ms will generate a lot more stacks then a cleave though

thick kelp
#

yeah but it will deal less damage

brittle rock
#

maybe ms-op-ms-cs-cleave (up to 10 stacks)-demo?

thick kelp
#

no

#

cs cleave cleave cleave ms demo

brittle rock
#

still less damage?

thick kelp
#

yes

#

cleave is

brittle rock
#

hm

thick kelp
#

over 50% of your aoe damage

brittle rock
#

ah

thick kelp
#

so not pressing it is bad

#

if u send a quick sim, even at 3 targets cleave is gonna show as above 45% -> only goes up per target count added

ah

#

sometimes wait 3-5s to cover them together like cs+demo

thick kelp
#

CS + X

#

or CS alone if nothings ready

#

vry ez

hard juniper
#

Same concept in keys with long walks between packs when you will drop stacks. Like after you kill a boss and take the teleporter, hit SS while you run to the other side

#

Or after the 1st boss of caverns

vapid pine
#

How long does SS buff last for? I swear it times out sometimes despite not having a timer

fast warren
#

think its just 30s the cd of SS

vapid pine
#

Just add a 30s timer to the buff if it lasts 30s 💀

#

But thank you 🙂

hard juniper
#

As long as you press it like 15 seconds or so before you'll be hitting CS*, then it'll always be back up in time for the CS SS stacks to end

fast warren
#

thats too much work they dont get paid enough for that

verbal garden
#

Is there a way to track Battlelord with the Blizzard CDM right now? If not Cleave>SD>MS(Battlelord)>OP>MS becomes really annoying in Slayer Multitarget.

hard juniper
#

Im confused why youd need to track it ever

verbal garden
#

How do you know when to press MS over OP in MT then?

hard juniper
#

MS is always over OP

#

If its available you press it

verbal garden
#

Not with the new patch

vapid pine
verbal garden
#

yup

ionic mica
#

Can you not just op if 2 charges > ms > op if 1 charge

vapid pine
#

I through Blord just was a buff in CDM though

verbal garden
#

Im on eu so the patch is not live yet. Battlelord is no buff in cdm

ionic mica
#

You have plenty of rage as slayer in aoe, I doubt it would be important to ms with battlelord instead of OP

hard juniper
#

Yeah. Its probably crazy minor

ionic mica
#

But regarding tracking, no idea if it shows up in cdm

vapid pine
hard juniper
#

Plus after patch goes live, its probably colo every key anyways

dim basalt
#

Theres nothing to track

ionic mica
vapid pine
dim basalt
#

I guess but MS glows when it procs

vapid pine
dim basalt
ionic mica
#

I think once you press another global it stops glowing though

#

So if you op cleave/sd you would have to remember blord procced (if we even care it procced)

dim basalt
#

fair ig

ionic mica
#

But why you'd be bothered that your lowest prio aoe button costs less when you have loads of rage idk

#

Just hit stuff

hard juniper
#

Just cleave, smash buttons for 2 globals, then cleave more

#

Plus I feel like between CDs, rend, SS, and sudden death procs, that situation is very irrelevant.

dim basalt
#

Alleria looks like a target dummy simulator as melee

ebon tendon
#

are we changing what bosses we play slayer vs col on in raids after today?

loud mauve
#

hey there guys, 2 quickies:

  1. How do you track rend on the pack? I struggle to track it on the pack, I know that better nameplates with better view of the debuffs is the solution, but maybe there is a way to track X seconds on it after I use it, so I'd know when to press it again just by looking at the tracked icon?

  2. Are there any keys we will want to prioritize for coin usage? I heard from guild mates that they plan to almost 100% take another coin from the vault, cause there are dungeons where they need, let's say, 5 out of 6 possible drops. So if they take the coin:
    a. They almost guaranteed to get what they need from the dungeon
    b. The loot table in this dungeon from coins is getting thinner
    c. If they'd take a piece from vault - that doesn't thin out the loot table from coins so they could get a duplicate this way
    disregarding the chance to get the bis myth trinket from raid in the vault of course - then you def want to get that.

What u guys think about it?

astral yarrow
# loud mauve hey there guys, 2 quickies: 1. How do you track rend on the pack? I struggle t...
  1. you cant cause blizz weakauras replacement largely sucks when trying to make stuff like this work. Best you can do is have some obvious tracker for your current target and refresh when that runs out. Caveat being that mortal strike refreshes rend below 35%. So basically nameplates is your only solution.
  2. Just spend your coins in Pit. So many good arms items there.
    We dont know how forgiving the bonus roll system is with regards to getting a 272 item from fx Pit in vault and then rolling it in a key after. A UI element should pop up and show you the available items before you roll.
loud mauve
#

yeah, MS refreshing rend doesn't let me to just look at the main target unfortunately 🙁

#

I was also thinking about Pit immediately, just wondering now will it be worth to take the third coin from the vault, for the reasons I stated in my op

pulsar frost

strange comet
#

I have blizzards CDM make an audio cue when rend enters pandemic window (<4 seconds I think)

deft bluff
#

does someone have a decent plater profile for me..

bright grove
#

i use that too, text2speech when rend enters pandemic. but that still only works for maintarget ^^

#

same thing for when SS drops

clever crag
#

I need that for SS drop off

blissful tree
#

when SS drops off, sometimes, i dont get a sound.

#

i think when SS is applied by CS then there is no sound when the stacks are gone. do you have the same issues?

rustic jolt
#

so how does it look? do we play slayer or collosus in high m+?

rustic jolt
#

well i read it but tbh not usually playing arms since last week so i wanted some opinion from others who play it more

dim basalt
#

Col in every dungeon but AA and maybe SR depending on the tank

rustic jolt
#

fuuuuuck

leaden garnet
#

Colo might do more overall in AA but the hard part of AA is the bosses so people tend to play Slayer

ionic mica
leaden garnet
#

If you hate Colossus then don't play it

ionic mica
#

or at least had to just now

leaden garnet
#

You're probably not doing keys that are high enough for it to matter

dim basalt
#

Surely the increase in aoe makes it up

#

Considering the ST of new col is somewhat close to current slayer

pulsar frost
#

i mean col lost aoe damage into prio damage gain

dim basalt
#

The 3% will not be noticable at all
