We can just hope .07 gives us more ST

hybrid needle
#

I usually play tank warr on the side.
Seeing how busted monktank is i made a monk. Warr seems undertuned. Healed with monk, liked it more than tanking with monk.
Now im back to not being a tank and have 2 hours queuetimes
Pls help

autumn nexus
#

Midnight almost did

#

Then blizz started buffing arms a bit

charred brook
#

Turns out we are the last titan all along

autumn nexus
#

Just remember, blizz outright said BM is overperforming, so now it wont and nerfed it to the ground

#

xD

charred brook
#

They couldn't let us get too strong because we are a titan

autumn nexus
#

2nd worst spec in the raid BTW

stiff kettle
#

"We've found prot paladins have struggled with taking magic damage. In response weve buffed their auto attack damage by 50%."

autumn nexus
#

but tbf, at least they do good in m+

#

My friend prot pala almost bursted out laughing when he read that

vast helm
#

maybe some little tuning coming after .5

hybrid needle
#

Isnt that what they did with vdh too

autumn nexus
#

They buffed vdh by 8%

#

makes me giggle

hybrid needle
#

I mean

autumn nexus
#

best spec in the game? nah, bufff that shit

#

and resto druids got buffs

#

will never ever not be funny

hybrid needle
#

"ST was bad so we Buffed aa by 40%" or something

autumn nexus
#

same 8% as rsham KEKW

sullen moat
#

why..........didten they add this to cleave also.....Fury: Improved Whirlwind now causes Whirlwind to apply Rend to all targets if Rend is known

steep escarp
#

You're gonna press rend

#

And you're gonna like it.

sullen moat
#

🙁

hybrid needle
#

Well, rend does nothing for fury but some dmg. For arms its a rage generator. So work for your rage

sullen moat
#

its still cheating for fury. no matter what you say 😄

hybrid needle
#

Fury is till worse than arms tho

stray vessel
#

even in st?

rose matrix
#

Fury is in the dump

#

Just forget about it until they buff it or next season

astral yarrow
#

fury is fine for the pad bosses and ok in keys

#

calling it good would be lying

hybrid needle
#

Well, keys is where most people spend the most time so imo its more important than raid Performance

neon shale
#

Yeah fury can still push decently high keys

nova marsh
#

We become a support spec

fair fossil
#

nah a healer who throws spit and dirt

rain fiber
#

I think they should focus on Fury having better AoE execute, like Whirlwind not only cleaving the damage of the target if it's executed, but doing a bit extra to incentivize. Arms has amazing ST execute for instance, it literally jumps in damage. I wish they could do something interesting to Fury with it too, while keeping a different flavour.
Every class has it's niche, maybe Execute could be warrior's

Then again, I feel like every single rework or solution as of late is simply giving every class some sort of funnel, which is fine, but there's less variety in the game now

cedar cape
#

can we upgrade weapon to 298 tomorrow ?

hybrid needle
#

I just want BL 🤷‍♂️

cedar cape
#

or does it release later on the patch

rain fiber
#

there's no date either, so at least a couple of weeks

hard juniper
#

I mean if they just made you do 100% damage to rampaging ruin primary target, made all of lightning strikes target your primary target, and made raging blow do more damage than a non shielded wrecking throw, I think we'd be solid

raw atlas
#

What do we think about Colo changes, more viable in M+ high keys? to not sandbang bosses?

dire hinge
raw atlas
#

It was a mess for ST fight in LFG when tank would not pull extra for you.

#

slayer was more viable for LFG

dire hinge
#

right, but when you say "in M+ high keys" Colossus was already clearing 19s/20s so idk what you mean by high keys then i guess

#

viability was never an issue with colossus

raw atlas
#

LFG High keys * x)

dire hinge
#

like 6s? 15s?

raw atlas
#

17/18 pretty much max in LFG right now

dire hinge
#

it can clear 20s, colossus was never a problem

hybrid needle
#

Pugs never take any other than the top 3 dps speccs. Thats just how it is. Doesnt say anything about arms tho

raw atlas
#

yep 100% agree

hybrid needle
#

Even On a 12. It doesnt matter if youre a good player or not. If youre not THE meta class, byebye

tropic jewel
#

sounds like u need the LF friends channel

dire hinge
#

if they're pinning the key failing on a colossus-vs-slayer pick and boss damage, they're building the team incorrectly sweat
Arms is a funnel and Aoe spec. If they are seeing low boss dps and blame you, either they didn't bring enough ST to offset, or you're not doing enough AoE to get to the boss faster (or they dont see the value in either).

But that's not a Colossus problem, that's a group leader problem

hybrid needle
#

Question about that. What specc do we consider a boss blaster in Phys

dim basalt
nova marsh
#

Espically for CR + lust classes, I've had more success with them

daring prairie
#

Every group want the, tank, healer, lust, brez, aoe topper class

No room for cheeze on this pizza

dire hinge
dim basalt
raw atlas
#

Got it got it ! what you say make sens but it doesnt work like that in LFG, if you do tank dmg on bosses you will get flammed

#

this is how LFG works, if you dont play meta you sux

dire hinge
#

same yeah, takes 2 seconds to explain how your spec works. If they dont understand what funnel means, that's on them and you move on

#

outlaw/sub has worked similarly for years

raw atlas
#

I have been x)

hybrid needle
hybrid haven
#

This convo is making it sound like colossus isn’t the better M+ build rn? It’s the recommended on wowhead. Are folks playing Slayer?

dim basalt
#

I guess at my key level people kinda know Arms doesn't have good ST

raw atlas
#

I'm around yours !

#

colo is meta now?

Ye archon has slayer everywhere

dim basalt
#

Probably

minor gust
#

currently yes both are good

safe island
#

colo arms st rotation much better now

daring prairie
#

theres a slayer fury a slayer arns a colo and a thany all within 20 points of each other

safe island
#

no more cleave shit

elder path
#

Currently yea but slayer AOE is getting nerfed a lil bit

dire hinge
#

Crit runs a lot of Slayer, Biz does a lot of Colossus, both do perfectly fine

minor gust
#

12.05 will likely change things but if you hate colo and love slayer you can still play slayer

elder path
#

Unsure how it’ll actually shake out since sims for keys are never trustworthy

dim basalt
#

Slayer will be fine for your average key

minor gust
#

I will still be completing high keys as slayer without a care in the world

dim basalt
#

And Frozen is the Slayer goat

thorn stream
#

Same Chadstorm

elder path
#

I’m curious if colo is gonna be used on any other mythic fights now that the prio is getting buffed or if Colo fights will remain Colo fights and slayer fights will remain slayer fights

minor gust
dire hinge
#

it's not likely tbh, maybe for padding adds but as more people get gear adds vanish anyways

#

most of your throughput is in execute for Raid and Slayer excells greatly there

Or maybe Im just motivated for once

minor gust
#

I cant make it past the que boss when I solo pug. Because all I keep asking myself why am I wasting my time doing this right now

dire hinge
#

last time i did a pug key i was top dps as the tank and i think im good on touching that again keks

minor gust
#

so thats why I only play with friends

thorn stream
#

hybrid needle
#

Where can i find friends pls

Yeah I was skeptical but it turned out well

#

Rogue is really fun

rose matrix
#

Whenever I try to pug I just see a bunch of groups in the aug waiting simulator

#

Pretty much no point in queueing into half of the groups

dim basalt
#

Is NA queue experience so much worse than EU or what

rose matrix
#

I mean it's pretty bad. Once you reach 16-17 it's all meta slaves

#

Which is funny because Arms is pumping too

dim basalt
#

I see a lot of meta groups in 18s too but also more than enough groups that don't care

icy panther
#

what are you going to use rolls on?

marsh forge
#

17s on na so far has been like cheeze said

#

legit all aug waiting room

#

maybe like 10% or so wil take a warrior

dim basalt
#

EU > NA KEKW

dire hinge
#

unironically the LFGFilter addon is real nice for that stuff.
Can set up custom logic for what shows in your queue. Can do things like:

  • (tank === 1 OR healer === 1)
  • NOT bloodlustfit
  • partyfit
  • age < 5min
steep escarp
#

I miss TWW season 3

#

When aug was useless

stark pike
dire hinge
#

it makes applying to keys a lot faster if you're applying to fresh keys that aren't waiting on bloodlust

rose matrix
#

Yeah I use Premade Groups Filter

#

Either way I rather wait in queue than run my own key

#

That is the worst

#

I will only do that once it is necessary

quartz adder
#

Im considering leveling and gearing my warrior dps as an alt in Midnight. Do you guys recomend it? is the numbers good, and the playstyle fun?

dire hinge
#

fun is too subjective to give you a good answer on it, but it does fine in all content. The big question would be whether or not you personally enjoy playing it and its current playstyle

silk eagle
#

how so arms becoming easier?

dire hinge
#

what?

quartz adder
#

Since my main is a lock, ive played it forever. The only thing that matters to be is that the playstyle is fun and enjoyable

dire hinge
#

makes sense! you can always do the class preview for warrior and see if you like Arms, Fury or their subtrees

north forge
# stark pike https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/rdKo6zoDSxmnW8w4aHbMQP https://www.raidbo...

it's absolutely subjective per character. Personally as a warrior dps swapping frmo fury to arms in the next week or 2, i am probably banking my rolls this week to do a big POS farm sesh next week. From POS is arms BIS weapon, neck, ring, and also some catalysable upgrades i could gather.
Opposed to the raid bosses predominantly dropping haste / mastery gear. I'm 5/9M and only have 1 boss on the 3/6 track available which arent great upgrades so im not going to currently prioritise raid rolling for efficient crest usage (as all items are 2/6M now so long as you have the hero crest achieve)

That would be my 2 main points of input, if raid rolling then use it on the latest boss with the highest track upgrades, and if dungeon rolling use them all in POS (for arms warrior) to narrow the loot pool and get the pieces we are after.

quartz adder
dire hinge
#

unfortunately Warrior does big numbers keks
(except on M+ bosses)

#

but if you have any specific questions we can absolutely help answer them!

quartz adder
#

Appriciate it, ill see if they show up eventually

#

If i understand correctly, both colossus and slayer are played in M+?

dire hinge
#

yuppers, pretty much preference. Technically colossus will be a little stronger, but if you like Slayer more it doesn't matter just play that instead

#

you're not trolling by using one or the other

quartz adder
#

I tryed to get something clearified yesterday, is it true that arms got bad execute phase? it still hits like a wet noodle as colos?

#

Because i remember warrior were extreamly deadly sub 30%, now it doesnt matter anymore?

dim basalt
#

Our execute hasn't been strong in a long while

dire hinge
#

the answer is "kind of".
During execute phase, warrior does do more damage. However, with the new talent trees + Hero Talents each of the specs has their own niches. I'm wildly oversimplifying but basically:

  • Colossus is more focused on Mortal Strike
  • Slayer is more focused on Execute

Execute (the spell) is propped up by a bunch of talent points to make it to significant damage, and Slayer is the only who primarily takes those talents. You take even more execute talents for Raid as well.

So to answer your question, both Colossus and Slayer change their rotation during Execute phase (sub 35%*), but only Slayer wills tart doing significant more dps during that window, and really only in Raid.

quartz adder
#

that made me sad 🙁 i was looking forward to sub 30 mashing execute like a maniac and ramping on the meters

dire hinge
#

i mean that's basically Slayer in raid still, for what's its worth

umbral badger
#

man the number of warriors i've talked ot who get benched on crown and beloren it's crazy

minor gust
#

is what it is

tender plaza
#

why do I feel a sudden urge to just quit wow just because blizz does not love this class at all

dire hinge
#

Crown's a bit better with 120 logs with dps warriors (again, publicly, many top guilds dont publish logs)

inner panther
#

Tomb of sargeras arms was peak gaming

minor gust
#

the more avg guilds kill these bosses the more dps warrior logs you will see

# nova marsh Genuine question: how often do people bench in "casual" mythix

I can only say from my experience, If you have a big roster people will be benched. But by being a good enough player in that guild no one is gonna a bench you regardless of the state your class is in. Casual mythic raiding is def an area you can just focus on improving yourself and reaping the benefit from it.

i wouldn't ever bind Avatar and CS together, is the big issue i see

umbral badger

y not

dire hinge

there will be times where you dont wanna Avatar but you wanna CS

I have a seperate CS button

autumn nexus

same

but this isnt casting both consistently

dire hinge

gocha

how much dps arms does on ST with funnel?

autumn nexus
#

I kb both and standalone cs button

warm fog

I hit it and half the time the CS doesnt go off

dire hinge
#

was a GCD available at the time?

autumn nexus

gcd

same with DK 45/90

trasnform is ot

Got a 263 Guidon in Vault Im thinking about using instead of my my 250 Gaze of the Alsneer until I get Heroic Alsneer. It looks to sim better. What do yall think? Other trinket is Solarflare Prism

what we thinking boys? take mythic track legs since bonus rolls are all going to pit anyway? ( im not mythic raiding at all so )

umbral badger

autumn nexus

like all but 1 item is great

dire hinge
#

the moment your /use 13 or /use 14 hits a channel (ie: Puzzlebox) that consumes your GCD for the macro, and it will not cast anything below it

random trout
umbral badger
#

need a new mental change for the changed colossus

#

i like the new changes but i'd need some muscle memory reprogramming xd

autumn nexus
#

whats the big change

#

less meat cleaving aoe packs

umbral badger
#

dunno yet xd gotta learn when will 2 demos be possible on one CS and when won't it be possible

nova marsh
#

You have literally one question to ask: do you have lust

umbral badger
#

not

#

so gotta experiment to see if it is posisble to make it 'much more likely" somehow

#

maybe bring a priest for PI xd

nova marsh
#

Honestly

deft palm
#

263 Guidon or 250 Alseer

nova marsh
#

Lean towards guidion prob

lucid dagger
#

whwn does eu open vault

nova marsh
#

Cuz hero track

minor gust
#

@smoky kayak hey was this a thing on PTR? CS is also resetting cleaves CD

#

I can cleave CS cleave

nova marsh
umbral badger
#

trinkets are ancient hunger mythic and guidon or whatever is that one called

polar sundial
#

PoS seems like super efficient dungeon to roll on right? with the bonus roll thing. just started my warrior so hes fresh alt and could basically use all the items in there

nova marsh
umbral badger
#

cool

minor gust
#

gonna double check if its because of CC

nova marsh
minor gust
#

yeah its because of CC

rose ibex
#

Clarms up even more

minor gust
#

so when you have CC CS also resets cleaves cd

nova marsh
#

Did the tooltip change?

umbral badger
minor gust
nova marsh
#

Because the only thing in sr thats good is solarflare

umbral badger
#

like what trinkets can ppl even use if they don't raid

rose ibex
#

Pit is bis

#

For dungies

umbral badger
#

puzzlebox aznd skyreach ?

nova marsh
#

Flare heart of wind puzzlebos are all p good

silk flint
#

Is collosus > Slayer St?

sudden lynx
#

is it time to switch to arms for raid

rose ibex
#

Could also roll on bird dog for gaze

umbral badger
#

sounds like a nightmare for puzzlebox haters

#

xd

rose ibex
#

Bird dog has a super small pool

smoky kayak
hushed pine
#

Prism/Heart if you're lazy

umbral badger
#

well, either way i wanna have some fun double dmos on cs

hushed pine
#

Prism/Box if you're a maniac

nova marsh
stray vessel
#

we still slayer in raid?

nova marsh
#

Yes

#

Cept for vanguard

wind hatch
#

the heroic strike animation is actually good now

#

huge

umbral badger
smoky kayak
stray vessel
#

tytys

smoky kayak
#

that change was in an early PTR build, I was gonna make an update video for it, but too much else been goin on

hushed pine
#

It uses the old CSmash animation now

wind hatch
#

looks so much better than the reskinned execute

nova marsh
#

Oh hell yeah

#

I missed that animation

safe dagger
#

slayer st still prio ms?

smoky kayak
#

it does kinda bug out during cleave tho

south cipher
umbral badger
#

man i already hate slayer arms with this change where my favorite skill is less viable in AOE"aka MS" i am so done with slayer

minor gust
nova marsh
#

Which actually...not a bad idea

minor gust
#

I mean who knows likely a bug

dire hinge
#

yeah feels like a bug but we'lll see

nova marsh
#

That could also be the case

minor gust
#

cuz tooltip would have been updated

nova marsh
#

But feels so ...weird

umbral badger
smoky kayak
#

meh

umbral badger
#

ah yea

#

the stacks

nova marsh
#

And reap procs maybe

umbral badger
#

guess i don't need to change that muslce memory then

#

OH SHIT

#

WE GET MROE RADIUS NOW

#

epescially on rend

#

i so hate when pulls are messy and my rend hits like less than half hte pull xd

#

QoL thigns are always my favorite thing

safe dagger
#

for st do we prio ms or op now?

fair tinsel
#

Begone vile thing, use ye I shall not

umbral badger
#

anyone ever played heroes of might and magic beyond the 3rd one ? i wanna buy some steam stuff and don't wanna buy a shitty game xd

minor gust
nova marsh
umbral badger
nova marsh
#

Genuinely at this point

minor gust
nova marsh
#

Remove rends application damage and bake it into the dot

umbral badger
#

i feel like i have to go thunderclap in pugs with increased range just so i can reach everyting with rend

nova marsh
#

And get rid of the cd

rare kite
#

anyone have that dk greentext? can't find it

umbral badger
#

so some radius on ring is helpful

#

but also fk the cd

real pendant
#

seems like its not 2 demolishes per colossus smash but rather 1.5:1 on cleave

umbral badger
#

but very hard

lean geode
# minor gust neat lil bug aint it xD

I have a suspicion it's similar to how RA used to work with BB and the behind-the-scenes cd of the original BT, where the cleave before CS still has its cd rolling in the background while you get the free two from crushing combo

umbral badger
#

in fact i had to prio mortal at hte start to get that

lean geode
#

but I could be completely wrong

minor gust
#

you will require high haste to get 2 demos inside 1 CS.

#

which will require thingsl ike lust

nova marsh
#

80% haste breakpoint gaming?

finite night
#

anyone else missing enemy health bars after the patch and have a giant swingtimer at the bottom of their screen now??? xddd

real pendant
#

but you also want really high crit bc critting ms or cleave doubles the cdr

umbral badger
#

like for example to do 2 demos in one CS i had to start with mortal after CS and use mortal as prio which i don't even know if it's worth to do that for a second demo in the CS

nova marsh
#

We like haste and crit

#

Get high both

#

40/40/10/10

stray vessel
#

anyone getting a crazy amount of ms procs

real pendant
#

i dont even think thats possible baseline atm

nova marsh
#

Im partly joking cuz its not

#

Maybe next season

real pendant
latent moss
#

we should be able to easily extend it with stuff like guidon

#

on use

umbral badger
near ice
#

do crafted weapons voidforge to 298?

latent moss
#

maybe even without guidon but with higher haste but i doubt

minor gust
#

so sick prio

latent moss
#

tbh in that case im just sending it on cd

#

for prio dmg

#

i did some ptr testing a week ago and i had that as well

minor gust
#

like when I already had 10 stacks when I press CS the 2nd demo is up while my prio targets still has cs on it

#

because of MS

latent moss
#

cs lasts long enough on prio and swept target

#

ye

umbral badger
#

so if we make a small mind experiment, you are gauranteed 4 stacks as fast as you demo, then 3 stacks from cleaves then if we one more mortal and it's 2 crits that's another 4 stacks, then if overpower and mortal ?

minor gust
#

but if you dont have 10 stacks and you gotta build with cleaves first Demo comes back right when CS is about to so you hold that demo for CS

umbral badger
#

like generally it seems like you need CRAZY rng without bloodlust

minor gust
#

it all makes sense now

umbral badger
#

but it should be possible

wild lion
#

is cleave still worth using?

latent moss
#

tbh u shouldnt be opening without 10 stacks anyway

#

like u should prestack it while tank is gathering

minor gust
latent moss
#

but in pugs u dont get that

nova marsh
minor gust
#

you know you are likely to hold that demo

#

instead of send on CD

latent moss
#

ye

nova marsh
#

Like doubble wolves was for enhance in s2

umbral badger
latent moss
#

its also rng iguess

#

due to ms critting or not

minor gust
#

yeah

blissful tinsel
#

damn I got omission but neck is a bigger upgrade, BUT I'll just be rolling bonuses in pit so will end up with choker, if I ever want omission the loot table there is actually massive

latent moss
#

both on stack generation and cdr

stray vessel
latent moss
#

which is the same thing idk why

#

i mentioned cdr

blissful tinsel
#

Yeh thinking that

nova marsh
blissful tinsel
#

I have mythic occlusion

latent moss
#

are u raiding mythic

blissful tinsel
#

yeh

calm hollow
#

guys, do we roll on nexus-point tomorrow? for rings

latent moss
#

idk for me 2set is dps loss as colo but im not running sims as slayer

nova marsh
#

Or void?

latent moss
#

omission is haste mastery

nova marsh
#

Oh

latent moss
#

occlusion is crit hist

nova marsh
#

Im dummy

latent moss
#

haste

#

prolly ring then

umbral badger
#

so now the question would be, without demo stacks , is it Cleave > CS > demo > mortal "for 4 stacsk to get a faster reset" or do we go Cleave > CS > Mortal "for stacks pre demo" > demo > cleaves > mortal

latent moss
#

as u said u can get choker from pit

#

but idk tbh

blissful tinsel
#

you could end up spending so many rolls

umbral badger
#

gotta know the proper no-demo stacks opener now

latent moss
#

ye i doubt u will ever swap to fury tho xd

#

spec is lowk deadge

blissful tinsel
#

True, bit sad actually

umbral badger
potent drum
#

in 2-3 targets, do you cleave with 3 stacks of Collateral damage?

umbral badger
#

thane *

blissful tinsel
#

I'm benched for the last few hard bosses

#

class sucks

latent moss
#

on 2t u cleave with 3 collat

potent drum
#

amazing, thanks man

latent moss
umbral badger
latent moss
#

and my perspective is different from yours cause im not raiding and colo doesnt really like omission

latent moss
#

keep in mind ure basically keeping both on cd perma

umbral badger
#

yea many questions all of a sudden for me xd

latent moss
#

aside from crushing combo

stray vessel
umbral badger
#

yea it is just crushing combo part

latent moss
#

but cleave + fob is just crazy

polar sundial
umbral badger
#

plus the fact that mortal does empower next cleave by 25% anyway so with stacks being more important i'd have to wonder

latent moss
#

it was simmed already its a big loss

#

to ms>cleave

#

simply cause cleave is too strong

umbral badger
#

that's in AoE or 3 target ?

latent moss
#

5t i believe but it would be a smaller loss on 3t

#

fob is just too strong

#

its like 20% of your dmg on 3t

umbral badger
#

yea i am wondering about 3 target specifically now cuz the equation changed a lot on 3 targets

#

cleave = no bleed and demo stacks = more important.

#

so wondering if those changes do prio mortal on 3 target over cleave now

#

it's just a "vanguard" thing i guess

#

and seat boss

olive nest
#

ez bonus roll

#

ring next bet

real pendant
#

what the fuck

#

do you have everything else alr

#

thats crazy gamba

blissful tinsel
latent moss
#

to ms>cleave on 3t

umbral badger
latent moss
#

yes

#

cleave is just too strong

umbral badger
#

that's sad cuz that's like you never can get a second demo

latent moss
#

demo is still nothing

#

compared to cleave

umbral badger
#

yea just sadge

latent moss
#

1 ravager cleave is like 3rd hit of demo

umbral badger
#

fun to get a second demo on a CS

latent moss
#

from my experience in keys

umbral badger
#

oh yea we are talking about with ravager now

#

same outside of ravager ?>

latent moss
#

its overall

#

3 min sim

calm hollow
grand pivot
#

How is everyone rolling rings? Have billzard put up the dropchance on em in vault?

umbral badger
#

either way all of those things will become clearer with some gameplay by teh community

latent moss
#

i mean they are clear right now its not worth ms>cleave

#

cleave is just too strong

umbral badger
#

yea i mean things overall

minor gust
olive nest
#

so depending on procs

calm hollow
olive nest
#

i can get 2nd demolish

#

inside first CS

#

without guidon

#

or lust

#

its damn close

#

1k haste

#

but ye depends on procs

latent moss
#

surely guidon value explodee

#

explodes

olive nest
#

I cannot wait for guidon

#

surely it drops today

umbral badger
#

@latent moss like i am gonna wait my man noblewinter to try Colossus ST in raid xd

#

he is the guy who never plays anything else lol

#

maybe he got broken by time

#

i wonder

#

lemme check

ebon tendon
#

i know it doesnt matter in big2026 but what race should i be

latent moss
#

with guidon

#

only on prio targets tho

jagged finch
#

wait are we using the core on our crafted wep

olive nest
#

yeah ofc becuyase you need ms

latent moss
#

ye

olive nest
#

arms owns

last saddle
#

every op is a ms reset

#

tbh

#

idk why

umbral badger
#

sadge the last Colossus warrior ST in raid gave up eventually

#

my man was our last hope

radiant rain
#

Is arms the play in m+ now by a lot?

granite swift
#

how's the new colo feeling US boys

umbral badger
river ridge
#

Doin a 12 right now i'll let you know

umbral badger
#

i need them to change fervor of battle to use 70% mortal instead of 150% slam

#

that would be fun

#

although it's bad for heroic strike xd

fresh spire
#

Then you have to manual cast heroic strike

#

Which is bad

umbral badger
#

yup

#

but DEMO machine would be fun

#

it's like 1 million ways to die in the "colossus" spec

old hollow
#

How is heroic plume vs myth gaze? For me the Sims are very similar for 5 target cleave

umbral badger
#

imagine needing to stand in place for 4 or 5 seconds in 10 seconds xd

jagged finch
#

Is pretty much everyone upgrading their crafted weapon?

umbral badger
#

so many ppl will hate it

fresh spire
jagged finch
#

oh i thought we got a core today

fresh spire
#

Nah 4 week delay

#

Coins are today tho

jagged finch
#

Aw thats no fun

umbral badger
fresh spire
#

Adds 10 ilvl to crafted

umbral badger
#

and if you wanna swap to mythic weapon you can't do it anymore ?

#

or you just wasted shit

#

or whatever ?

fresh spire
#

I'm assuming once unlocked they drop like catalyst charges

umbral badger
#

oh

#

hopefully then that would be good

fresh spire
#

Blue Post states they are from boss kills and some other things

#

I could be wrong but that is how I interpret it

jagged finch
#

yeah 10 ilvls to a weapon, or 9 to a trinket, only those 2

umbral badger
#

good hopefully we won't have to worry about using it on crafted weapon then

jagged finch
#

cant upgrade random gear

umbral badger
# fresh spire Adds 10 ilvl to crafted

last time i did sims iwth guildies warriors were by far the best scaling with weapon upgrade compared to dks and rets, "and casters ofc" is that the same overall ?

wanton pine
#

is slayer chopped???

umbral badger
#

would this waeapon upgrade be more of a "warrior" buff than others ?

wanton pine
#

bro my overall is fucking chopped

brazen rose
#

is chopped good or bad in this context

stable fiber
#

is guidon really that good on ST

jagged finch
#

i thought slayer got buffed

stable fiber
#

its simming as +1k exactly

#

over hero gaze

#

let me check myth gaze actually

outer lion
#

sounds like a skissue

umbral badger
wanton pine
#

idk im doing same rotations and such as before and my overall has tanked in comparison to 12.05

#

colossus feels fine

stable fiber
#

wow guidon is just

#

wait im simming w/o the haste flask which is better for me now

#

fuck

reef glade
#

uh guuuuys

#

think this deep wounds thing kinda good now

#

lol

minor gust
#

DW on slam does things

umbral badger
# stable fiber wow guidon is just

i think it's a combination fo guidon being goode and other trinkets being not the gretest, for example gaze is 2.5% dmg upgrade for our "dh i think" compared to 1.5% upgrade for me as a warrior.

wanton pine
stable fiber
#

ok yeah

#

its only like 200 now

umbral badger
#

my char refuses to drop guidon for a hero track

stable fiber
#

over a hero gaze yeah

#

myth guidon > hero gaze

#

is 200 dps

#

not that impressive

ebon tendon
#

sims 700 for me and im IMPRESSED

umbral badger
#

but then again who cares

#

still in the "remove ravager" team xd

umbral badger
#

that's why i never needed or tried to get hero gaze

stable fiber
#

@minor gust idk what to RR for upfront power

minor gust
stable fiber
#

most bosses its like 1 piece i could get

#

maybe nexus king?

#

neck + shoulders

minor gust
#

hows Pit look for you?

minor gust
#

maybe Pit angle you can send 2 rolls on that

#

instead of 1 roll from raid

stable fiber
#

i dont know f 2 rolls

#

fallen king is really good

#

but is 1/2 of hitting

umbral badger
#

your gear must be sick

stable fiber
#

probably

#

its like +5k so

#

in reality im only 2k higher then u

umbral badger
#

oh i don't even know how to add vantus on options

#

lemme check

lean geode
#

@minor gust I did one (1) key as colossus without a shaman and was afk for half of boss fights being out of rage

#

idk how anyone can think this spec is good or fun

umbral badger
#

funny

ebon tendon
#

i sim at 86k so theres that

jagged finch
stable fiber
#

VANTUS RUNE

#

pls

We lost dps?

stable fiber
lean geode
stable fiber

im not even spooned

could be just feel craft but i feel like slayer ST went up more than 1-2%

stable fiber
#

have gotten 1 mythic item from raid btw

lean geode
fossil thistle

and its paladins weapon

ebon tendon
#

is it better to be the spooned or the spooner

stable fiber

@stable fiber can you for science reasons do a full Colossus ST build and show me how far behind is it from the 97k slayer point

umbral badger

yea fk blizzard

fossil thistle
# sterile owl 0 XD

mmm Hard decision, i'd prob tank trinket cause I think hero hunger is like, really solid for all content even over some M+ mythic trinkets

stable fiber
#

think im doing 2 RR's in pit of saron

#

ok game time

sterile owl

#

the glove proc is like

#

0.60-.7% likely?

#

at high keys 17+, can i get away with playing colossus in all dungeons? or is it inting to not play slayer in some?

sterile owl

#

Im just guessing its around there, I had champ ring combo and it was .6-.8% overall in a few dungeons

jagged finch

#

what is the likely hood that i get all 3 of my biggest possible dps increases in 1 week lmao

lean geode
#

in m+ at least

viscid fossil
#

theres no pictures for rotation

#

its all prio

sterile owl
viscid fossil
#

is there an easy way to input arms bis into the sim

sterile owl
#

Just do droptimizer

minor gust
sterile owl
#

And sim Raid/m+

minor gust
#

like I did before

nova marsh
umbral badger
#

@stable fiber had hoped the gab would be a little closer between slayer and Colossus on ST but this is too sadge

#

rip

viscid fossil
nova marsh
#

Brn lemme flip my monitor

sterile owl
#

You can select between raid and M+ and itll show you what the best drops rae for you

#

How else have you been simming them lol ?

polar sundial
nova marsh
umbral badger
#

btw guys, not that i care about slayer all that much but i think now slayer will officially drop for stance mastery in m+ build ?

sterile owl
#

Top Gear is YOUR top gear tho no ?

umbral badger
#

i'd assume so

sterile owl
#

How can you sim your BIS lol

viscid fossil
#

i wanna sim a strong arms set vs the fury gear i have now

#

to see if i have to refarm the gear aka just delete warr for this season

dire hinge
viscid fossil
#

or if its close nough

#

to just respec

ebon tendon
#

just press swap spec button

#

and og play

sterile owl
#

ty tho

dire hinge
#

ah, mb

sterile owl
#

@viscid fossil You can sim yourself in the gear you have

umbral badger
#

@dire hinge crushing force vs stance mastery for m+ slayer now that mortal fell out of prio a bit ?

sterile owl
#

and then run droptomizer to see if you need to do more runs or not

dire hinge
minor gust
#

@latent moss About to do 2 17 pits back 2 back so I can do some slayer colo testing

ya fair, i see it now
