but i still have to fucking sim every dungeon
i just wanted a rough number how far behind my gear would be versus arms optimized set
just in case what though 👀
Colossus and Slayer are both perfectly fine in keys up to the highest level right now
bc it was all haste / mastery naturally
i cba polishing a turd and refarm everything lmao
the one dungeon where slayer is better that all ppl are talking about
academy
GIGACHAD
damn. only a 2.5k difference in fury and arms for me now in pure st sims (with all diff gear)
honestly i'd just sim it and see the difference. You can run one with ST and one with AoE and made an educated guess if it'll be worth it or not.
or just run a couple of keys with both
yea will have to do a bunch of sims when i can log in for that one dungeon
colossus still too far behind in ST it's sadge
as slayer?
yea. slayer arms vs mt fury
that same sim used to be 9k diff for me
crazy, time to go back arms for me maybe
regem, reenchant, different belt, legs, trinket
i've got a few min and can test quick
8% of not much is still not much
and if i go colo and ask the tank to pull big, can my grp do the stops/kicks and survive
is this in regards to me
i still have the photo of the sim i did earlier and it does not look good for Colosuss ST so yea
it's about colossus ST
ah
those were my sims earlier, bottom is Colossus m+ st then slayer m+ then Colossus ST then slayer ST
it's 11% ST difference for me
between both m+ talents
so fking big
you gotta change the build up quite a bit to pick up Stance Mastery 
lmfaooooo 18k difference between colo st and mt fury
Quick question. What is the best stats to focus on as a Arm Warrior to do alot of damage?
vers
is this shit playable in keys lower than 16
is arms going to be better in raid now???
yea i critcakes stance mastery at the cost of something i don' even remember what and some of the top slayer parsers on some bosses
Thanks for the giggle
Crit haste, but with some mastery
Idk whats the addon name but basicly try to avoid dimishing returns
mine
@dire hinge but yes with those sims by ppl, we can clearly see that colossus buffs won't fix it's ST, we just need rage gen to fix it.
I have a myth puzzle box, got offered a myth Guidon in the vault which sims say is 700+ dps better than pbox, I was under the impression puzzle box was 3rd bis behind Gaze and Heart. I am just missing something?
I will still play slayer in m+, i dont do high enough keys where 160ish k overall is not enough
naw gaze isn't best
? really?
yea sim it
well i guess it depends on what ur simming like burst aoe or st sims right?
man why can't they give us enough rage to not AFK mid fight for example for colossus 😄
blizzard need to know AFKING mid fight is bad design xd
so in 4 weeks we can upgrade a hero gaze to myth track?
?
should I grab the myth weapon and recraft the hunt on another piece of armor?
myth gaze vs myth box
yes that's why myth box is in the top of the bis list :p
i think ppl should understand if we had a proper 1 min Trinket this season we might not even be using gaze xd
?? gaze is simming higher than box by 0.5%
Is the move colossus still for m+
yea is that weird ?
soooooo gaze > box
oh i thought you were surprised htey are this close xd yes gaze is > than box. not sure about AoE though. in AoE box might be better cuz it comes with major cds
or cds overall
oh no that was the other guy
yea i think box > gaze in keys probably
gaze > box for paladins tho i assume
you can just sim both i guess , try different scenarios of 40 sec burst "with and without bloodlust" against 3 targets, 5 targets and 8 targets.
might need like 6 tabs for all of htat but it's worth the try
i dont have either 
saw the other guy asking and got curious
if im pugging keys up to +16s should i be playing slayer except maybe aa or seat
you don't have to ahve it to sim it :d
compare it to heart and radiant plume
if you are curious
what I dont understand is why im getting myth guidon outsimming myth box in any situation that i would see in m+, 3min boss, 2 min trash for m+ but i dont see a single top warrior using guidon
this obviously isn't like, super accurate but here's the 3 talent builds with 1 and 5 target for 5min.
(note, current build is Colossus M+)
So IMHO:
- Crushing vs Stance doesn't seem to really matter regardless of the amount of targets you have.
- Slayer does more single target, but the difference between 71k and 79k aint gonna really kill a boss that much faster
- Colossus owns in AoE as usual
top gear for the poor 😄
so just go colo
XD
One less cleave is hurting my dopamine BADLY
just cleave before your CS, there's a bug where CS resets your cleave CD for some reason rn
this does seem like it is still fine to go slayer in academy at top keys just so that the bosses are easier.
but not ofr any other m+
i mean, tbh both do just fine in keys, just play whatever you want and be good at it
uh y r u telling me this
its the other guy who was askin
i alr know its gaze and heart for st
box + heart/gaze for burst aoe
plume probs worse than those 3
also to be fair, stance mastery is better then just for the bonus defense i guess.
I love u for that
whens the next bp? in a week?
totally, and high keys are more limiting on survivability (cough colossus has baked in defensives cough)
but yeah honestly it doesn't truly matter and just play what you do best with imho
o it does?
oh wait it does
colossus/thane fury are probably second after dks in tankiness at least from my experience so far, and colossus just got tankier.
Stance mastery kinda THIC
Does the ascendant voidcore add the item levels to the item or do I still have to spend crests to upgrade it?
2nd question, is it troll to use this on a 2H CRAFTED wep?
that being said, stance mastery is not a thing for colossus guys just a slayer thing :p
and colossus does not need it anyway
and the 10% by enemies debuffed by demolish too
and we getting that much more often now ❤️
colossus thic tanky now
wdym? cuz we can send more demo?
yes
Im gonna do that bcs i play both fury and arms
demo makes it so that enemies do less dmg to you during demos and for 10 seconds after
gettingthat more = more tankiness
Question about the void cores
and yes dmg reduction is multiplicative but it is still MUCH mroe defense than slayer
So the void cores will only give the quality of the item based off its vault right?
yes
Correct yes
kk
Also remember you can manipulate the loot pool using your Loot Spec
yes if you don't myth raid then you have many things in dngeons to aim for , rings and trinkets included
if you wanna game gaze, switch to tank spec
ty ty
how far behind is colo for ST?
hero track gaze or myth track chest tier piece?
Compared to slayer? Or?
Colossus is 12% roughly, behind Slayer for boss damage, but 25% ahead in AoE.
Single target is not what arms is good at, so 12% might seem like a lot, but 12% of “not much damage” is still “not much damage”
For most fights yes, but do Colussus for Vanguards
Colossus is literally one of the best (if not the best) for that fight
I suck at colo st
word
Idk what to do
Luckily it’s not a single target fight so you’re good
Yeah but it’s the same as Slayer. Just save Demo for CS windows and it’s the same.
it be like that for colossus, they do less ST than epected from sims in real fights. feels like they lost a lot more by chaos than slayer does.
this changes was a big nerf
less cleave, no mortal wounds on cleave, and demo getting desynced with CS feels pretty bad ngl
nerf to fun
im told it a lot this 5 sec is meme
yeah idk i dont think its going to net out the way people were thinking it would
i took that into account too but the way i see it is , maybe if we actually fell behind a bit in AoE, then it will warrent an aura buff.
although it would still not fix the problem with colossus ST
only more rage gen would
Why does the arms guide say to run Stance Mastery when Barbaric Training is better mostly
Go do keys
Compare logs from last week
Account for tank diff
Anyone Mortal Strike and Cleaves not have any audio
u play both
u drop javelineer and crushing force
for stance mastery and resonating voice
Kinda pref
Stance mastery isnt the best dps but its amazing survability
at least now crushing force is much less value in AoE
after this nerf to mortal strike
How are you taking Two-Handed WEapon Spec then?
also way easier to fuck up a demolish especially with a pug tank
needing to cast that more and perfectly to compensate for loss of cleave dmg is not great
try it in talent tree
Yeah slayer is dead gg 17 pit with one fuck up in it but either way would have done same dmg as rogue when I usually beat him easily. Sub buffs + slayer nerf gg @lean geode
Thats not the main problem imo
The main problem is demo itself
You either take Jav or you take Shout you cannot skip both
read what i wrote
dunno how demo is the problem, for colossus most ppl feel the problem is standing afk without rage
colo lock in time
Even if colossus has rage
yup time to run it back as colo
That still doesn't path.
We ain’t sending demo without CS right? Despite the cdr?
Dosent matter because demolish is still a coin flip with stupid large damage variance
Archi did math, You can send whenever honestly
i guess i and many other warriors have been running an impossible tree
Damn really?
You're so close
I think it was like a .3% Difference in holding Demo or just sending on CD
read again
technically better to hold demo for CS but you can very much send on cd
everything is a coinflip, what matters is that the sims will average out the math RNG and based on sims colossus is 11% behind atm and that's primarily because slayer globals are almost always filled while colossus stands afk every few seconds
Nice
slayer free procs and BS solves the rage issues for it
I find this still sims better, maybe because im pandaren
it sims very slightly better, but then the argument becomes some 0.2% more dps or more tankiness
drop javelineer and crushing force take resonating voice and stance mastery
last time i simmed it
it was ahead on aoe by some irrelevant amount and behind on st by some irrelevant amount
THEY CHANGED HEROIC STRIKE
ye its so bad
we death striking now??
fob doesnt have slam animation anymore either
like maybe javelineer path is better in some dungeons only cuz how good it is at bursting shields but can't thik of which right way
thats a good thing
shit looked so bad
nah it was goated

its maybe better in low keys where u dont dstance anyway
in high keys its definitely not
yea i just can't think which bosses had shields and shit adhd not helping, like caverns second boss is the only thing i can thnk of
only crazy shield that comes to mind in keys is maisara boss
ye
Switched to Colossus and now my audio is bugged and I can't even here that juicy Demolish sound
If I have a tier piece (chest) does that remove it from the drop table of that boss (same difficulty) for voidcore roll?
yup can't think of another crazy shield dungeons
i mean caverns overall has many shielded monsters i guess
that beign said, that boss fucking sucks
so if the shield breaks like 2s sooner then good
just pull warriors and enjoy deleting it
Gargoyles in Pit, MT has shielded adds, there's a ton of places you can use Wrecking THrow in Dungeons
Yes but because demo is one of the highest damage skills in the game, the variance becomes even higher. Its arguably the same problem tww had
Im not saying rage isnt a huge issue rn
are hands one of the items that you dont suffer to hard to craft?
Hell it is for slayer too with bad rng
idr
i understand, trust me, but you ask all colossu warriors what sucks most on ST they will almost all agree that rage starvation sucks
i lost my 2nd RR from pos
It's lower stat but not the lowest, preferably not.
any updated builds for arms colo? or same build?
rage starvatio nis such an bumming experience
next week khazix ez
at least you can't get it anymore thankfully
Do we think slayer arms might be viable on mythic vanguard or probably still gunna be colo
colossus is probably the same, they do a lot of mortal and cleave dmg to give up on such talents
gonna roll myth l'ura and beloren probably
colo
next week
slayer isnt even close
i mean you can always circle back to pit eventually
Hands, shoulders, belts, boots are all on the same level of power, bracers and back are a level lower so that's why they are the best crafted pieces.
colo is genuinely a 3t spec now
Ik it wasnt last week but wasnt sure this week
ill be full bis by the time i get back to pit ngl
arms in general is legit a 3t spec
humble brag
im going wrs after i finish l'ura or beloren items
myth heart sniping?
hands
have myth heart
baller
myth gaze/myth heart haver
i dont think youre talking about the same heart
yea i have crafted bracers but last week got a mythic cloak. but i still have champion hands because god hates me so im debating taking the myth track wep in my vault and putting the gloves on crafted OR taking myth track tier hands
they sim pretty close
yeah i mean vorasius heart
ahh
send 2 rolls into POS today and got 2 items that were sidegrades at best... RIP. thins the pool for next week? (inc next week getting 2 unusable items)
But i've officially done the recrafts and catalyst off pieces and swapped from fury to arms. from 1100 mastery down to 272, crit is a little low, i need to farm up the POS neck even on hero to fix it
no that trinket isnt very good
still baller wtf
Which is also why I think they should have a replacement for exe as a proc so colo and slayer have a more uniform experience in resources
its good for an m+ trink
like slayer arms will 100% be "viable" on vanguard, but probably 50k or 60k behind colossus
did u never craft a weap
fed..
nexus point ring also
So not viable haha
i did
only been given 1 item btw
how do u have two embellished crafted pieces
shoe
fed by blizz i guess
because we have 4 crafted pieces btw
9th spark this week
wtf
pretty much, they can also stop execute from consuming more than say 20 rage for colossus. make the 30 rage execute a thing only for slayer.
cuz colossus losses a lot of dps with teh extra rage consumed
Its really hard for slayer to compete with a spec that has a fight tailor made for eh
colossus only cares about the fking mortal buff why am i spending my entire wealth "rage" on an execute
I suppose the answer to that is do you plan to slam Pit or not. If yes the BIS weapon is there and no hands, so the myth tier hands would be a good pickup and RNGesus out the weapon for max bonus. If you want to play safe it would be slam the weapon though.
i am fine with execute being used as colossus as long as they limit it to 20 rage, hell even 15 rage is too much on it.
anyone successfully set up a cmash debuff tracking bar with ArcUI? having trouble with it
yea but if he asked "viable" then sure, slayer can compete with "the other specs" on vanguard, but being 50k or 60k behind other warrior spec sucks
Honestly just give colossus more rage gen, it’s not like execute does that much damage without the 18 talents propping it up anyways
just ran some keys and holy cray colosuss feels bad with the demolish cd reduction. Everything desyncing...
Yeah true. I think your raid lead would be pissed
it aint bis its the AA one, not midnight falls one or nothing. imma reclear before i take anything anyway
I have one for rend, should the same
It can only track the main target
yes , if anything even the fact that colossus is not showing that much advantage over slayer in teh dmg types that colossus specialized in, is primarly because of rage starvation imo. like for example, you'd expect colossus to have more mortalstrike dmg overall. but slayer does end up with much more mortal strike dmg on ST raid bosses cuz of unhinged.
Just gotta make sure it’s a Tracked Buff (not a tracked Spell)
i said this and ppl called me dumb, lol
any idea what i'm fucking up here? it seems like it should be working, but nothing actually displays
or it works for a second and then disappears
Isnt it just wb demolish every time
So either hold or send, its a very small DPS difference.
Yea I am not sure if it's just send it or wait for Csmash and sync everything to it
That’s seems right from what I can see. Might be some 12.0.5 patch wonkiness
It kinda already did
Well it used to desync before
i mean it should still be 1 demolish per warbreaker and one outside ? no ?
I was thinking it would sync now
yea, I definitely was sure to check the debuff instead of spell thing, idk
no, it used to sync if you were playing globals well
Ya know what
now it no longer syncs
Decouple it from stacks and make it scale at the same rage rate as am
how many demos are you using between warbreakers is the question
not a big enough sample and i wasnt paying close enough attention to give a real answer rn
Woh woh woh, let’s not make sense here. Who do you think we are, ret paladins?
If they could just make everything with the same CD reduce CD in the same way that would make the most sense, but Blizz has to be fancy with it.

fine, then here is what i assume will happen with proper experimentation. one demo in warbreaker, one demo out, and then if you get a 3rd demo out you delay for warbreaker.
but if we use 1 demo in 2 demo out we probably can't line a demo with warbreaker anymore i would assume
at least from my very limited experiment that seemed ot be the logical conclusion for things
We had some discussion about Demo with and without CS and timings last night here:
Did these changes make arms feel more flowy? I tried it out last week and it felt horrible
“[…] 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 [whether to save Demo for CS or not]”
yes i was actually typing this too, there will be more strategy to it now than before.
and that strategy is for example, don't use a demo if the pack is at 5% and you have CS for next pack for example?
one example but still
Yeah i mean even if you were able to fit in a demolish at the tail end of the next smash before it would definitely desync the next time
Depends on what flowy means I guess. Arms will constantly de sync its own cooldowns, but it plays fine and now you have to worry less about Demolish timing.
But I also don’t know how you were playing
Now its just always right after smash
For sure but also most dungeons have downtime letting things resync a bit
Depends on tank sometimes
Yeah ig normally the whole point of arms in keys is to smash twice on each pack to profit off massive cleave execute so depends on how long the pack lives, if you were already able to fit in a demolish in smash twice anyway the new cdr wouldnt benefit you
You guys thinkg POS or SKY are better for a bonus roll? I was interested in myth prism
If they died before second demolish this will be great tho
i think what's gonna happen here exactly is this, the change to demo will be good in some "interpretation" for the change, but there will be much more variance in people's interpretation for the change were most will lose a lot of dps., if you know what i mean ?
POS
Pos had multiple items
True
Yeah thats what I figured
Got the helmet from the first one
Fingers crossed I dont get a dupe lol
Well you can't get the helmet twice
but at least i would say that the base-line idea for ppl to consider with this demo change is 1 demo in warbreaker, 1 demo out warbreaker in AoE situations
it removes itself from the pool each roll
Yea, before you roll if you hover on the dice it will literally tell you exactly what is droppable from it
Yeah I saw that but havent done the 2nd one yet so didnt if the helmet was gone or not yet
i think nexus point rings being as good as they are does make at least the rings bis from nexus point, unless you can get it from mythic midnight
True
But you have several really good items too
And getting wedding ring if you dont have both is quite goos
yea tbh though everyone's gear situation is different
Sims are true bis
some ppl probably have got some shit from pit in vault and then they have to prio maybe a trinket if they dont' raid
good thing for non-raiders is that it is easier to get trinkets from dungeons with the roll although they are slighty weaker
cuz they get 2 rolls instead of 1
do you only bladestorm with CS
if you dont have CS where does it fall on the rotation
yes, this is a strict slayer rule
for m+
So the void gear upgrade shit can’t be used till next week?
What if they don’t tho and u have bs up and cs on cd for like 20 more seconds
Then hold for CS
you have to understand BS does spam your mortals too, and mortals extend CS with 4 set
Start spending rage and get that Anger Management working
i don't know how it would be without the 4 set in future raids, but at least for now the difference between BS + CS on ST for example and CS alone is like double duration or some shit
it's crazy
Wdym double duration?
Your 4pc of tier makes your CS last longer the more you Mortal Strike.
well, even in AOE you are extending the CS on a target anyway so it's not "as big" but it is still there
plus CS is giving you at least 36% more dmg to bladestorm, probably more like 39%
Yeah
No, mortal strike extends CS too, which your Bladestorm auto-casts while it’s going.
True
and so you lose half a BS by using it outside of CS anyway
I don’t think that’s true
It needs to hit 3 or more targets
yea just misunderstanding probably by him it's no biggy blizzard are a bunch of autistics like all of us
Wait so ms extends cs in st
Ambiguity at its finest, yes that’s correct
yes it does that's the entire reason why slayer is far ahead of Colossus techincally
It’s Mortal Strike (regardless of targets) and Cleave (in 3+ targets)
try POE, devs suck even more at explaining things in that game
Look at WarcraftLogs for the top build and just import it
@keen siren also this is very important remember, say you have 8 CS on 8 enemies, you still extending one of those 8 CS, and smart people would aslo try to target the prio target so that the CS lasts longer on that target
Takes less time than asking here
Has any1 tried slayer yet this patch is it good
Are you not running tactical edge?
meaning, as a slayer if there is a prio enemy target in teh AoE as slayer you want to be extending that CS on it with your BS
no
not on the thigns that will die instantly
i see many ppl play slayer and target the squishy shitty monster that dies in the BS losing CS uptime on prio target
Right true I agree but cleave will extend cs anyways on every1
Yeah it’s fine still, play whichever one you like more
it's not about "which one does extend" it's about how much can you extend
blizz loves some classes they even don't disguise it
with BS and cleave you can literally sometime get your CS back on your prio target aoe scenarios ltierally almost after your first CS is lost
Yes
Aug all over again
Buff metas by 20%
which is only possible if you target prio target with BS
Nerf midpack ~3-5% we take that
Ok I see
wait so ascendant voidcores make radiant crafted to 295 and myth to 298?
But I just thought bs randomly hits everyone but the ms from bs will target the target ur targeting at that moment?
waht da hell
yes which i hope is gonna be a buff for warriors more than other classes, dunno how DH / ferals / hunters scale with weapons.
context xd
i had that same question, some ppl say you will get enough of it but i am still worried about that so if you know, let me know xd
okok
your too smart i was wondering what fight is that xd
im killing it soon
guys whats the biggest improvment i can make as beginner arms on colossus. like simple change that gives huge overall gain?
12.0.5 logs
yes i know the reason
positioning for cleave. has shorter range than you'd think
i cant find his talents and i cant break 80k myself
so its crazy to me
Only 100k more + monk buff than slayer that key. Man I need to shake some rust off or slayer is actually chilling
what
this is a thing you noticed if you watch bizentein, don't be too afraid ot use CS on a pack that's about to die if you know you can get enough cleaves out. it is hard ot "measure" this tip but since cleave does 20% mroe dmg on execute phase. you wanna minmax that value.
dont miss your cleaves
Yeah that’s like the biggest thing I’ve noticed sometimes it’s tough whether or not to send cs on a pack close to dying
how can i miss them?
by not being in range or facing every mob
cs is the ability that gives me the 3x cleave right
yes, i specifically said this tip cuz a while ago it was my biggest weakness.
yes
ahhh got it thanks
and the other one where im stationary. do i press both when mobs are low? or just the CS
Becuz it comes back up so fast sometimes u regret not sending it
the biggest dps dip for ppl by far is them being afraid to CS low health enemies. yes you don't wanna CS on things dying in 2 seconds. but you don't wanna save it on things dying in 10 seconds
so if you think you have 6 to 10 seconds. just smash that thing
bladestorm is actually crazy rn
im gonna try it out
This is from new patch?
holay
yes
Yeah BS is fuckin'
What was ur overall
BS would be like 4th down in last patch
Hell yeah
I love slayer
this change for slayer sounds like the most noob friendly change ever, just BS correclty to complete your 10s for new players xd
fun
I did another 17 pit as colo man I just cant with that spec
Bs should do big dam tho
something about it thats stressin me out
It’s a big cd it should pump
meanwhile slayer is big chill vibe
yeah I get it
tha's stress is why i love colossus more, i hate how chill slayer is.
Yeah I can’t with Colo I hate standing still channeling shit
time to pull a Noxiv and play slayer only
on dragons?
are u afk
regardless
anybody having issues showing master of arms to show tracking on cdm
Slayer just has a nice flow to it
yes
for some reason
it got removed
lmao
I dont either
idk
ok thought i was tripping
do i press demolish also with CS? when they are low. and i have them both up. yeah right?
yeah you might just be afk
i do like 200k on this boss lmao
and its like a 90 parse
idk i press buttons until void howl then i colo smash, demo, cleave the adds
66k
do we know the difference between colossus and slayer for ST with the changes?
Did they change the animation audio for arms?
Was that slayer or colossus?
colossus...
i was thinking that too, it feels bad. like hitting air
if he did 200k as slayer on dragons i would be so goddamn impressed
Thought it was some new slayer tech 😂
am i doing the void howl wrong?? cds didnt line up, demolish hit like 4 of them
and they all die before ur 2nd cleave goes off
wth is void howl
yea but idk the names of abilities... idk i just look at timeline for the orb spawn
send cs/demo on pull and hold ava rav
wait i only press cleave 3 targets +? or also on 2
Whelp
I got a mythic heart of wind trinket as my only mythic option in the vault. Currently using champion level trinkets but they're the light guidon and heart of hunger. Should I take the trinket or get the coins to buy a roll token?
That's not bad
how do u do exe phase as multitarget colo
sudden death
Is colo only the play on dragons on myth? Orbs die too fast on heroic right?
Orbs aren't the reason you play colo on myth dragons. 2 target at basically all times is to my understanding
so just play slayer for heroic
3 plus only
colo is only for mythic dragons
thought so, thanks mang
@glossy zephyr shit men thanks. rip me i pressed on maisara bird boss always cleave as main key xd
does the crucible trinket really sim that high or should i just get mythic prism from vault
or take tokens
so press OP over MS now?
in aoe as slayer
Did I miss the memo on Sudden Death? Still procing reap on St?
so weird,
yea
just to clarify this, colossus is best for dragons and vanguard, EVEN if orbs die instantly on dragon. colossus is the higest boss dmg spec on the dragons

do we think arms may finally be above fury in raid? or?
sir pls you seem to know how the bird runs. may you tell me what site is best for indepth rotation guidance? icyveins wowhead? or other
@sand totem meaning, even if you are not looking t orb dmg and just wanna do boss dmg. colossus is best for dragons.
just cause of the cleave?
i dont wanna be here.. im stuck here
wowhead, most websites just take information out of wowhead
last week when i looked like 8/10 bosses fury was ahead in dps on logs
primarily because some slayer tools are actually designed to not "sweep" like unhinged bladestorm "which extends CS alot, but cuz it does not sweep it does not extend CS on 2 targets" as well as the fact that colossus scales a lot with sweeping strikes.
if thats the metric you are using then have fun.
@sand totem so this is not "accurate math" but imagine a situation where you have 2 specs that hit 2 targets for full damage. but one target scales up to 240% dmg on 2 targets and the other spec scales up to 190% or 210%
that makes sense. our tanks dont hold them close enough to sweep unfortunately. ill get on their ass about that
Should I take a mythic b tier trinket or the coins from vault? I don't have mythic trinkets currently
mytch mechanics is for them to be close enough other wise it's not the right way to play i think
i mean id like to know why that is and if its better why doesnt it (show), im ok with being wrong and being told differently and explained why
appreciate all the insight brother!
fury is not ahead in most fights, but the sample of arms is like 1/15th that of fury
so for example if you find 1 arms and 5 fury warriors then 1 arms again in top parses against a specific boss. this is just a population thing.
so you could just say that both are fine on that boss
but if you look at a fight and see this despite the population of both specs. then this is clearly an arms-advantage fight.
ok, i only started swapping to fury souly becuz i think it was M vor and M chim, fury was like 15k ahead or somthing
if you just look at logs Fury does not have the majority as its even. Arms parses are far fewer and its better on the bosses that matter Like lura belo crown
for something like Myth chim fury is ahead in parsing, not in boss dps. most guilds will be more happy if you do boss dps.
This shit is a go get bonus rolls right?
hmmge
here is a sample of boss dmg on chim @ivory remnant fury does not exist despite the population
paladins before/after
ok ok, thank you for the insight i like learning more
dam yea thats alot
but if you go overall arms does not exist.
so while we all like to parse, i'd rather have 70% parse and be useful than have 99% parse and be useless
is CS actually reseting the cd of cleave now? I didn't notice it before the patch... so the nerf from Crushing Combo isn't that relevant, right?
@ivory remnant the problem with adds and parsing on adds is that 90% of raids dpsers are competing on adds even when they should not . leaving specs like fury useless. if every dps respects their spec "strengths' then warrriors would finally take add duty and best ST specsx would take ST duty
i think arms might be giga boss dmg buffed on dragons at least, if we ignore the orbs padding ?
did you still do M+ colo build or just colo 2T slapping boss
yea kinda how i felt on my feral druid, id go to (do ads cuz they are the mechanic) but they all just blasted and dead in 2 sec so no dots ticked for me and i did nothing
feral druid is a whole different history, even worse than warriors in some aspects. while ferals have had better ST overall in many tiers as far as i remember. they never had any actual add dmg in raids after the snapshotting was removed
yea its kinda sad
in SOO i was still one of the top parsing ferals "it was my first main" once we lost snapshotting ferals kinda died in what it did best
so at least as warrior you still get to enjoy your add dmg sometimes
and sometimes your ST dmg if you don't ind both specs
🫡

@ivory remnant the funny part when it comes to the feral druid arc is that they were one of the best melees when thre is a lot of downtime, the vast majority of your dmg was bleed 'again cuz of snapshot" and so if you have to not hit the boss for a few secodns you still did bleed dmg. nowadays it feels like the spec gets cucked so easilly so warrior might be even better for you than feral
god bless bonus rolls man
i enjoyed feral alot back in tomb
got gaze finally
felt good
yea i had a history with feral, first person to incorperate strength in ICC when ferals were agility fixated :p once i took top dps spots for a while ferals started to copy.
back when we were kids and we had time to spend 30000000 hours theory crafting for even 1% dps gain lol
can someone tell me why heroic strike has higher prio then mortal strike as colossus on the wowhead guide. but in the bizstein video i just watched it says mortal is better untill cerain mob hp (pure singletarget)
Is EU up?
i'd assume it's not even that big of a difference anyway. but generally outside of CS i would always prio heroic strike. and inside CS i tend to naturally prio mortal "for 4 set"
so i thik you can just not overcomplicate it in your mind to make your gameplay easier.
got it
only thing that feels off for me is ST
i feel so weak there, maybe in execute i dont prio it right
but im racing the tank kinda. but dont have good gear yet so idk
yes that's everyone's perception cuz of how rage is scarce not because of any execute stuff
i swear everyone is getting that damn sword
with gear you will push 70k
believe it or not , i dropped it 5 or 6 times in season start "in m0 and m+"
i was donating that fking shit to the masses
i hope so men. team flaming me already but im still gearing 😄
also feels strange that execute itself has such a low prio
they won't flame you if you do what colossus does best. smash AoE
if you are above 120k overall most ppl won't talk to you
It's not the worst thing ever
But i'd rather bonus roll pit first
ii dont' even think we execute anymore
true that men 😄
but i won't say i know execute now
would've been SO BASED if I got both trinkets back to back
you dont natty execute you use SD tho
need the goats to confirm if we execute ever now
ye only with procc thing but still low prio
like i think now slam is just straight up better than execute
costs less rage, applies bleed and roughly same dmg per rage 'if not more?"
but it buffs MS
again the execute thing i am not too sure about anymore though so gotta hear from other ppl
still too much rage
i think if execute was limited to 20 rage we would gladly use it
it's a very mid sword but one that can be enjoyed by both dps specs i think
i am looking at this vault and I know I should do dreamrift just to see if it drops
but i am very tempted for power now
could just take it and roll vorasius
idk slayer feels fine in m+ for me
Just play fury then
Do the 6 coins = 1 reroll token? I didn't see it available from the person next to the vault
i must learn arms
true. would be worth just to see if i need coins
if i can get coins*
no
do bonus roll
technically u can
as prot spec
but it lowk doesnt matter
alright good
can i be scummy and take the gaze then do hero dog bird and roll on it?
then pass it to friends if i get it?
yes but homies
i dont know if i'd be able to roll on it
man blizz screwed up sound effects for my orc warrior
but when i swap to female they come back lmao
wild
if I have it equipped can I even roll on it? :/
if i do heroic chimeraus does reroll give heroic or mythic gaze?
bonus rolls are the same as vault
Anyone know if talents changed at all for colo m+?
yo anyone got a colossus build for mythic chimera this patch?
just same as prev patch , or maybe you can try go pure ST and do a demo on adds phase but full ST rotation otherwise.
colossus could be fine in ST build and the demo if you are first soak
because first soak = more adds phases, second soak = more execute up time
so slayer likes being on ssecond soak
what M+ dungeon are we sending our rolls on
Bonus rolling nexus point for those ringss
or we using them for myth vor and chimerus
is guidon bugged? i see it go off my macro but my haste sometimes doesnt go up stat wise
I see
never roll on vor unless your guild has many ppl who need trinket. but verey few classes need that trinket.
I know what the numbers say but these changes feel a lot worse than what the numbers show imo
meaning eventually vor trinket will be disenchanted
thanks dad
chim trinket is worth the roll cuz everyone wants that trinket, and warriors are not even high prio for it
just craft the darkmoon hunt trinket like a turbo giga chad
@lusty pasture so if you roll on chim you just wanna do it as a prot warrior.
I didnt know about that, that's pretty nice
yes ppl are manipulating the loot with role right now
at least it's what's been said here by p-pl
as in set loot spec as prot right
not from personal experience
thats nuts
yes to avoid getting the shit trinket
did our rotation change at all with new colo changes?
heroic might isnt being tracked anymore
man i need to fix my UI eventually just hating the game right now lol
too CBA to log in
Weird. Mine was tracked tonight
any suggestions i have champ gaze and hunger
the apex 4?
prism is pretty damn good
probably one of the 2 trinkets.
it works as feather before you get feather
guidon owns in m+
@latent moss no one uses guidon though everyone using myth gaze and hunger
Eu not up yet right
How is light company guidon simming so damn high, 0.5% higher than gaze of alnseer
most dont have it
good if you lack haste
i would assume solarflare is good on ST but you would replace it very fast anyway.
also yeah a lot of people dont have it because its better for the other specs
Sorry had a brain fart and thought of Colossal Might. I didn't even not8ce if my Heroic Might was tracked or not lol
at least for AoE , lining up with ravager is more important than avatar in a sense.
as a very recent arms convert (literally today) im either bad or just find slarms stronger and better to play in keys. Am i cucking myself too hard if i continue down this path?
you wanna push top keys or just chill mid keys ?
if you wanna push top keys it's colossus 'especially if you have a team to help you funnel"
other wise does not matter you c an go slayer
anyone noticing cleave feeling much worse now? no deep wounds feels so bad to me
it certainly does feel a bit weaker
Pugging keys will be a gamble on if you'll have a tank that has a good pull cadence that let's you make use of being colossus or not
yeah my timings feel off now
I am somehow cursed to always press demolish or charge right before an AoE pops up lmao
yeah colo is just giga clunk and everyting de-syncs would just have to get used to it i guess. SLarms feels kinda siiiick
yes that's probably gonna feel much weaker for sure. i think that's probably the biggest nerf for AoE and our ST still sucks sadly
we just sending demolish on cd unless ur cs is about to come up in a couple seconds?
feel like it has to be worth waiting even like 10+ seconds no
Dont worry though, they buffed UHDK to make up for it lmao
probably best rule for now is to think of it 1 demo IN cs and one demo outside of CS . until we figure out better.
uh dk? bro have you seen this yet ?
they buffed dh when they were already top
now the raid is 99.9% dh shitting on us
i'm def not demoing enough. it must have been compensation in aoe for losing wounds
it's too early but i don't thik it will change
it is
I hadn't seen that yet
i can't wait to see if DH will keep shitting on everybody for hte entire week xd
THEY WERE ALREADY GOOD
compensation for losing cleave dw
and got giga buffed
Its ranged so of course it will
had one in my last key consistently pulling 300k on aoe
they were already itop in many fights and situations
why does a "probably S" tier spec get buffed to S+++++++
while we beg for mercy 😄
they've never known how to balance specs that end up with target cap
A warrior player slept with one of the devs wife obviously
Lol its do silly giving classes target caps while others dont
what are the two BiS trinkets to aim for purely M+ focused? I'm seeing a mix of Heart/Gaze/Guidon/Prism based on top M+ logs.
Pick 2 of those and have fun
bonus rolls should help that issue though, so just deciding whether i bonus roll that or gaze first haha
So guys question
This means I'm done and can unlock the forge right?
yeah i was planning to aim for gaze until I saw guidon simming high but i think double passive is just chill
is it cuz I didn't go on the character I did it on?
nah its just not out yet
if u bonus roll on a heroic raid boss it gives u hero gear right?
Holdon. Do we need to do the questchain on all characters

you can get the bonus rolls now but the forge upgrades are not out yet
ye mythic track will only be from mythic raid and 10+ dungeon
ye its simming extremely high for me too
i have it on hero
ok thx
I don't even have a good myth weap yet so I wouldn't send that shit anyways
prolly a low haste moment
then just talk to the guy and pick the option for how you wanna pay
I asked because I literally couldn't
Cuz I'm a dumbass who forgot I did it on rogue 
it should be account wide
Gentleman, Do we use Demo on CD or hold for cs?
is the guidon the new tech? where can i see the sims?
Elementary void core progression...apparently is not
sim it for your character
"Oh I'll just go do a +10 pit instead of picking ip my key)
Gets reminded what class I'm playing
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/6MUTSZ6qsdcD34uibhUmMt
YES I can finally equip max weapon

Does anyone know the answer to this :3
still hold
if cs is like 10 seconds away hold
anyone elses game sound like they arent hitting anyone >? like legit no abil sounds?> and dmg numbers are like lagging behind'
or something liek that
but realistically it currently dosen't matter
archi said it was like a 0.3% difference between holding and not holding
no more fervor of battle slam animation?
Alright so if CS is like 20+ish I should just send
ah okay thats not that big of a dif
Ill prob just send then, Feels like I'll be more consistent
Not if it's replaced by HS
Eyyy
Lead invited a shaman

I was just simming my own character on droptimizer to see what to bonus roll. Guidon was simming as a 3.1% upgrade on myth track fully upgraded and gaze at 2.6% on 5 target sustained.
Does anyone know if I bonus roll a boss from raid that I already have an item from will I have a chance at getting the item
yes
Thats what I thought so you have to roll then it takes it off the table
I like that the colossus change is ALMOST lining up in ST and absolutely hate the AOE desync.

The new heroic strike animation sux!
Anyone been simming that Eyes of the Eagle enchant for the ring? Been simming surprisingly nice
It looked way cleaner as a white execute, now it's just some DK or Ret pally jump
The only animation that made sense with a jump was warbreaker/CS
They bring back the jump and give it to the wrong ability...
. im getting the weirdest audio issues, ill try to explain. Im hitting my abils. My OP, MS, slam and execute all are doing their “swoosh” sound effects, but they arent doing their “clonk” sounds (you know what i mean? like its the sound that actually feels like youre slapping something
also cleave damage is lagging like 3 secs behind
almost time for me to scale
anyone esle
ownage
HAHA

just do them yourself
my autistic ass probably will
a few people have reported sounds missing
ill keep my mic on durin raid tonight
i wanna try 1 pull
in the slayer m+ talents
dont BS the adds, use it after they die
im erect
i am too
try colo chatting
not much
sim question i think
would be crit thinking
hold let me think
1 x battle lord 1x bloodborne into critical thinking
and i keep my strong execute phase
is there a reason the nexus rings aren't recommended for reroll tokens? The combo sims quite high for me
the cook of the century
ngl i have no clue about that fight
happens when u are the first dps warrior on it
xaaxaxaxaxxa
xD
is crushing combo really that valuable
i get 1 cleave off before the crystals die
why are u taking aoe is there aoe outside of crystals
no
no shot cleave gets more value on crystals than just sending BS on it
idk if i bs the adds though
with how much BS is cranking
actually real asf kha
i think this is good though
u were bsing before the 20%
buff
surely now its more value than what
2-3 cleaves
even with fob i think unhinged alone is more boss dam
I mean this was my BS dmg in a key of all things
that thing is doing insane dmg
im still going to BS the boss
just not during the crystals
also does slayer funnel as hard as colossus
is fob that strong
not as hard
you can cleave the kick adds for funnel
but it still funnels
still funnels a fuck ton
maybe
but im sure BS does more dmg than reap + cleave but yeah worth testing it out
this is more boss damage in p1
hey guys, if we use the new bonus rolls on hero bosses, will it drop mythic ilvl ?
psure
yeah only 20% chance for cleave to reap xD
on paladins blood dk died 1 minute in i get autod for 560k slump over he gets rezzed i dont rest of the fight they kill it 🙁
considering Slayer got a bigger nerf than colo no not better than colo
i dont have my
kick macros
scary
better boss damage ngl
(30 seconds of a pull)
Good luck everyone
Anyone simming 100k yet?
for st? on arms?
Ye
