#

after the new buffs is arms go to spec for last 3 raid bosses ?

stable fiber
#

depends on who you ask but i still think arms is better on like every boss

#

some people will tell you fury is better on some bosses

#

last 2 though i think are strictly arms only bosses if you care about prog

brisk sedge
#

thank you

stable fiber
#

fury = pad spec
arms = boss damage do'er

#

you probably can play slayer fury on l'ura and its good

#

or on beloren

tacit crystal
#

need box on bird though

slim zenith
#

Slayer or colosus as lvling?

#

70\

#

+*

stable fiber
#

i mean id level as fury personally

#

but if you want to torture yourself

#

then you can play slayer arms leveling

#

colossus wont be any better

slim zenith
#

okay?

#

whats diffrent withe furry?

#

old old BFA player her

#

so i have zero clue

stable fiber
#

better sustain, more mobile with passive movement speed, more cdr = more consistent damage when going mob to mob

slim zenith
#

okay

#

redoing all the spells :>

stable fiber
#

fury damage is much more upfront when you use cds

#

also the way fury cleaves makes it so much easier to pull big

#

big aoe circle > big aoe semi circle > 2 target

somber latch
#

M+ Fury or Arms?

stable fiber
#

also you dont get stuck in a cinematic screen when you push cds as fury

scenic sequoia
#

guys

#

in ST

#

like m+ collosus ST

slim zenith
#

so slayer or mountain then?

#

as furry

scenic sequoia
#

do i press slam or cleave

#

when nothing else avaliablee

stable fiber
stable fiber
slim zenith
#

thanks

stable fiber
#

on st you will slam

#

if its 2 target i believe you prio 3 stack collateral damage > slam

#

fishi question

scenic sequoia
#

do i press execute without sudden death?

stable fiber
#

dont

scenic sequoia
#

ok

stable fiber
#

if you are colossus

#

never push that button

#

unless super excess rage

#

which wont happen

scenic sequoia
#

not even with sudden death?

stable fiber
#

with sudden death you can on st

scenic sequoia
#

oki

stable fiber
#

never push sudden death/execute in aoe

scenic sequoia
#

oki

stable fiber
#

you can push sd > slam on st
and i think you can execute if you have like 100 rage and 0 op charges with ms on cd

#

actually like might not be true

#

think slam with deep wounds just does more damage

#

id say for rage economics you dont execute as colossus ever unless sudden death

umbral badger
#

colossus defo does not benefit from execute buffs. i don't want the 0.2% or 0.3% lol

#

but atl east op buffs yes

umbral badger
stable fiber
#

also if you could run deep wounds

#

w/o deep wounds its a dead button

umbral badger
#

that too

vapid goblet
#

these buffs are not enough lol

#

colossus arms needed like a 15% ST buff it not more

warped owl
#

this is more raid buffs and slayer m+ buffs

stable fiber
#

yeah?

#

???

vapid goblet
#

butt mortal strike

#

buff

stable fiber
#

colossus doesnt need help in m+

#

xdd

umbral badger
# stable fiber w/o deep wounds its a dead button

but yea since execute is double the rage "when you have rage" for nothing much of a dmg boost over 1 single slam "if any" even with executioner stack. i'd say dmg per rage for execute is the actual problem for colossus.

vapid goblet
warped owl
#

just funnel on bosses and you top the prio dmg

vapid goblet
#

it does tank damage if you dont have funnel

stable fiber
#

yeah and then you funnel on a boss

vapid goblet
#

nexus point is fucking

#

dooooooogshit

stable fiber
#

and do 50k more dps then everyone else

#

lol

thick kelp
umbral badger
stable fiber
#

that cooks

#

101k st dps in m+ slarms spec?

thick kelp
#

yep

stable fiber
#

zamnn

vapid goblet
#

and 5min all raid buffs?

thick kelp
#

4min all raidbuffs m+ build

thorn stream
hasty pumice
#

What's the point of simming the m+ spec with all raid buffs

stable fiber
#

idk funny sim number

#

its obviously slightly inflated

#

but you will run with the best raid buffs anyways in most keys

hasty pumice
#

Good ST tho, non BL DPS is also very important for M+ spec

stable fiber
#

only slightly inflated

hasty pumice
#

Shammy + monk you pmuch always have

stable fiber
#

i feel like you never skip druid in high keys

#

motw is like

#

the best raid buff in the game for living

hasty pumice
#

Yeah but there's plenty of clears without a druid

stable fiber
#

idk i dont do high keys

#

noob player

#

i am

hasty pumice
#

I agree you often have one

#

But not always

stable fiber
#

rsham/monk always a lock though

#

for sure

warped owl
#

Don't you already have all the important buffs with monk druid and shaman?

hasty pumice
#

Sometimes you have a paladin and rogue for example

#

Or DK and paladin

#

Doesn't happen often but sometimes

hasty pumice
#

deadge 🔥

stable fiber
#

you technically benefit from like hunter and a very very small amount from dh

umbral badger
#

well, was slayer 100k AOE dps behind colossus in M+ build ?

stable fiber
#

if you have the cantrip rings and gloves

umbral badger
#

or was it more than 100k ?

stable fiber
#

but its only a lil

stable fiber
hasty pumice
warped owl
#

oh ye forgot hunters mark

thorn stream
#

Did he sim with pi ?

stable fiber
#

nobody sims with pi

umbral badger
thorn stream
#

Some do

stable fiber
#

i dont even know if that button does anything

#

for us

#

pretty sure i clicked it before and my sim dps did not go up

#

was awhile ago

orchid glade
#

guys, are we going back to Slayer next week? We don’t need to use Colossus in M+ anymore, right?

stable fiber
#

but like

#

in reality nah

umbral badger
#

either way, i think if slayer sims even 90k now "without full buffs, m+ build" that should be enough to compensate for the lost AoE

stable fiber
#

the aoe got buffed anyways

#

op/reap

umbral badger
#

in m+

#

so my point is i would assume that this buff will make slayer competitive in m+ again

thick kelp
hasty pumice
stable fiber
#

hmm

warped owl
#

blord completly dead for slayer?

hasty pumice
#

Your CS is a huge damage increase and any downtime means you have it up less frequently

#

Colossus doubles down with demolish on bad uptime

umbral badger
thick kelp
hasty pumice
umbral badger

thick kelp
#

Heres a 1:30 ST fight breakdown for that build

#

to give you an idea

stable fiber
#

picture makes me unhappy

warped owl
#

holy overpower over MS

stable fiber
#

yeah that

#

is doomed

#

slam also a lil too high

thick kelp
umbral badger
stable fiber
#

ye

umbral badger
#

nbbut in a 1:1 comparison colossus feels worse

#

in chaos

thick hamlet
#

how do you calculate the impact of both deepwounds nerf and the coming buffs

stable fiber
#

well

umbral badger
stable fiber
#

the sim dps didnt actually account for the deep wounds bug

#

because we didnt know it existed

loud fjord
#

i thought cs would be a bit higher. 0.8%?

stable fiber
#

so really we can only calculate the incoming buffs and not the bugfix nerf

warped owl
loud fjord
#

ye, but still

warped owl
#

it hits for 10-20k every 30s so its barely anything in ST

umbral badger
stable fiber
#

ill just be happy to know that im not carried by a bug anymore

umbral badger
#

i've not been carried so far, but even then i've not been welcomed :p

loud fjord
#

i hope we can track heroic might after the patch again Prayge

stable fiber
#

me too lmfao

#

i hate that we cant track it

#

like it just randomly

#

got removed from cdm

#

well it still is there but like untrackable

umbral badger
# stable fiber me too lmfao

ppl just don't want warriors, regardless of guild rank or group level it is a cultural thing in this game. it takes one sentence from maximum for example about how bad warriors are and in a few weeks that snetiment becomes hte norms

#

in the community

#

and it's not the community's fault anyway

#

it's blizzard

stable fiber
#

i think its the community's fault in terms of m+

#

in raid warrior was pretty shit

#

but both specs are like not half bad in m+

umbral badger
#

as someone who worked with customers, rumers spread so the least you could do is make sure htose rumers are not true :p in that context it's a blizzard thing

#

shouldn't opportunist eventually becomes better for ST with those op buffs every second week

stable fiber
#

we will see

vapid goblet
#

so yea

umbral badger
#

we just did not know

vapid goblet
#

ok when is my 20% mortal strike and 20% slam buffs

#

and i am happi

thorn stream
stable fiber

#

midnight falls is also pretty much just a st fight

umbral badger
hasty pumice
#

Insanely tanky, high damage and decent utility

stable fiber
#

????

umbral badger
umbral badger
#

i hate this shit

#

the illusion of choice that they give you by saying "hey, here is a cleave talent that replaces WW"

#

as if WW is a thing

#

it implies that "instead of using WW for AoE you will use cleave now" and yet even if you don't have cleave you ain't hitting WW ever xd

thorn stream
sturdy vortex
#

ok, Arms Slayer is back, i guess?

umbral badger
#

and stayed out for hte rings

#

it was some chaos happening

#

but man it sucks

#

this raid

sturdy vortex
#

Spam MS for procs, bumbum ST dmg?

thorn stream
#

Damn that sucks

vapid goblet
#

removing reck from avatar was a terrorist attack

stable fiber
#

let padders pad

#

if i have a add on me i drag it out and sweep 2 mobs

#

stormbolt it then go back to boss

umbral badger
#

trust me

#

my logs suck this tier cuz of this

stable fiber
#

let them know

vapid goblet
#

people care if you sit boss?

#

for me people would be happy if they could pad more on the adds

umbral badger
vapid goblet
#

i mean

#

they should

#

warrior is THE worst class by far on the last 2 bosses

umbral badger
#

they saw top guilds going with prot warriors and now they are like "go prot, or we get a prot"

#

kinda thing

vapid goblet
#

you should 100% not bring a warrior there

stable fiber
#

not certain

vapid goblet
#

warrior egg damage

stable fiber
#

after the changes

umbral badger
stable fiber
#

with the egg being 40 seconds

#

it is a slayer boss

umbral badger
#

it is always a slayer boss if it's ST

stable fiber
#

top guilds will be 1 cycling

umbral badger
#

which is why i said "if the base dmg existed"

stable fiber
#

on mythic

umbral badger
#

:p

stable fiber
#

well there was a world

#

where you could fit a lot of demolishes

#

it just doesnt even matter

vapid goblet
umbral badger
#

well, in TWW colossus burst on ST was very good if you had the 10 stacks ready

vapid goblet
#

you need MS to crit everytime or something

#

or we have the 2 adds live and right next to the egg

stable fiber
#

may i show you

vapid goblet
#

and we can cleave

stable fiber
#

the humble recklessness potion

umbral badger
#

all i can say that TWW colossus was an acceptable ST spec. not op but acceptable. and being acceptable gives you opportunities sometimes.

#

but being tank dps levels means you aint' getitng any chances

#

zero base dps multiplied by burst modifiers is still zero 😄

thorn stream
#

For me personally, atleast on st, execute is signature to arms

#

So I’m quite glad slayer is the play in raid

#

But that’s just me

umbral badger
#

using executes to prep an insane mortal is always fun to me

#

but it was WORTH using execute unlike now

thorn stream
#

yea I agree with that :p

tender plaza
#

slayer > colosus now yes?

stable fiber
#

in raid 100%

#

m+ its either

#

colossus at higher end keys probably

vapid goblet
#

rage econ for ST is just

#

terrible now

#

compared to tww as well

#

you simply cannot spam executes

stable fiber
#

i dont think that is a bad thing tbh

vapid goblet
#

atleast

umbral badger
vapid goblet
#

dont make me afk 3 seconds on pull

stable fiber
#

we should get increased rage gen in execute

#

but

umbral badger
#

for colossus it does not exist

stable fiber
#

ehhhhhhhhhhh

umbral badger
#

it's 3rd world economy for colossus xd

stable fiber
#

slayer execute in raid is

#

something

vapid goblet
#

i pressed 2 executes

#

i now have 0 rage

stable fiber
#

^

vapid goblet
native niche
#

Slayer in Raid, Colo in m+ except AA and SR

stable fiber
#

yeah probably that^

#

also slayer execute without windfury

#

LMAO

#

its

umbral badger
# vapid goblet i pressed 2 executes

tbh execute phaes does bring up some rage issues but it is a trade off i am willing to take as a slayer. but at least pre execute rage flow feels fine for slayer compared to colossus afking all fight in between skill hits

stable fiber
#

you dont get to play your class

umbral badger
#

for dps

stable fiber
#

you do more dps

vapid goblet
#

UNH has better execute

#

than arms warrior

#

think about that

umbral badger
#

i am not gonna compare ot other classes

stable fiber
#

they do not

#

but

pastel whale
#

Just charge weave and you’ll be reet

umbral badger
#

cuz it's about the % you get out of execute compared to pre execute

vapid goblet
pastel whale
umbral badger
#

slayer arms get a lot of dps at execute comapred to pre execute

#

so at least you are rage starved for a reason

#

COLOSSUS ON THE OTHER HAND

#

you are rage starved for no fking reason

#

all time

#

all fight

#

xd

stable fiber
#

its not so much as uhdk having better execute, its more that they just are better dps at all stages regardless of boss hp

#

unholy is getting nerfed and arms is getting buffed

#

so it evens out

vapid goblet
#

UNH

umbral badger
vapid goblet
#

is getting a 1.6% ST nerf sir

stable fiber
#

you are right yeah

vapid goblet
#

it is nothing

boreal quartz
#

unh is a ranged spec

stable fiber
#

that is not noting

vapid goblet
#

it is

stable fiber
#

u understand

boreal quartz
#

1.6% = 1.6%

stable fiber
#

nvm

#

u dont

#

but

umbral badger
#

i kinda gave up on colosuss ever becoming 'average" on ST though, i think blizzard sees colossus doing good AoE dps and think "that's good enough"

stable fiber
#

i dont mind it much

vapid goblet
#

oh no instead of simming 120k i now sim 118k 🙁

stable fiber
#

colossus is unbearable to play on st

umbral badger
#

i'd rather if they make it so that the specs are a bit more balanced "so 5% differene" so that ppl can play whatever they want wherever they want

boreal quartz
#

i like having good st in keys idk

umbral badger
#

i for one do

boreal quartz
#

objective when talking about fun

umbral badger
#

if they just balanced specs so that one is 5% higher aoe and the other is 5% higher ST then everythign is viable everywhere

#

but this "extreme" specialization per spec is not fun to me

boreal quartz
#

if everything does the same thing nothing is interesting

umbral badger
#

because it is about the competition

stable fiber
#

well

#

just so you guys know

#

colossus st is FINALLY beating guardian druid sim dps

#

we have WON

boreal quartz
#

my 281 ele in m+ spec outsims turbobuff arms in raid spec

umbral badger
boreal quartz
halcyon valve
umbral badger
#

sadly design wise it is too late now 😄 AoE split bewtween ablities was more balanced in TWW that's why it was possible to balance the dps profile. now cleave is doing too much and has too many talents

wide apex
#

too late for what

#

it'd be trivial to fix

umbral badger
#

for them to fix Colossus ST as long as we are wit hthis shitty tree :p

#

i think the yneed to change some talents

#

if they want to fix

wide apex
#

god forbid

umbral badger
#

or they just need to nerf cleave heavily and compensate in demo and mortal

#

Col Arms steel better for m+ after tunning?

kindred breach
#

reap is still lottery so most likely

#

maybe not if you are lucky and proc reap like no tomorrow

fresh spire
#

Slayer key build is looking pretty solid for balance

#

st dps like 104k vs 81k of colossus :yikes

stable fiber
fresh spire
#

110k

stable fiber
#

hmm

fresh spire
#

slayer isn't going to do as much burst aoe as colossus does but it still does pretty good aoe numbers for 1:30m pull is like 650k vs 570k

#

but ST is so far ahead in slayer it might be worth for some comps

ionic mica
#

i can see myself preferring slayer if i play with an aug cos 1.5 of your 3 dps having shit ST is sad

#

depends on key i guess

thorn stream
fresh spire
#

buffs* but yeh

thorn stream
#

Meant the dw fix

#

Heard it couldn’t be simmed

fresh spire
#

dw fix was a 4% nerf, that was never on sims

#

sims was accurate like we didn't have the bug

umbral badger
fresh spire
#

in full bis colossus in keys is around 81k

umbral badger
#

hmm to be fiar this 20% op buff helps a little for colossus ST i guess

fresh spire
#

execute may aswell, need to test some builds

umbral badger
#

dunno about that i just can never find a way to take deepwounds with colossus to justify execute in any scenario but will see

#

i think bizentein will utlize slayer again now

neon dome
#

tldr how big are these buffs?

thorn stream
rustic jolt
#

looks sweet guys, maybe slayer back on menu?

junior nexus
#

Hey everyone, could someone please tell me why Ravager is thrown before the Colossus in the M+ rotation, and not after it?

boreal quartz
#

well in wawi u did it cuz it doesnt insta proc unhinged nor does it do insane on hit damage

#

i think its still the same reasoning now

junior nexus
#

I'm already at 274, but I still can't really deal any damage, 90k overroll, so I decided to find out if there are any secret tricks)

#

True, I use non-crafted weapons, heroic ones, but I'm not sure that this can weaken me that much.

autumn nexus
#

Warrior needs sweaty giga strats to deal damage, pretty sure the highest key in the world had a war in it

#

most avg joe's have arms being doggo

wintry dome
#

there are some 22 runs with a war

#

but mostly not tbh

autumn nexus
#

Yea, but its omega babysittig

#

Problem is warrior is shit to play, and needs lots of extra crap to work

#

Then theres ret paladin who's... 1 2 3 giga damage

#

Respect to peole who stick with it, I quit classes early if blizzard decides to bring ruin to their door

dim basalt
#

And rets do less than us yeah

grizzled hare
autumn nexus
#

Im glad you think so, keep the warrior dream alive

dim basalt
#

I don't just think so, it is true lol

autumn nexus
#

Even better

dim basalt
#

We outdps anything

#

And the extra shit youre talking about is not a big deal

#

A sham and some funnel is whatever

#

Other specs like rets and ddh want funnel too

#

So it's whatever really

fresh spire
#

if you switch to Biz build arms closer to 90k for his build

dim basalt
#

The one with some ST?

junior nexus
#

I didn't claim to be a top Warrior, it's just frustrating that I'm trying to squeeze out at least some 130k overroll, but it's all in vain.

fresh spire
#

yeh MP/OF > Mass Exe/Powerful

dim basalt
#

Ye

#

Feels nice in ST

fresh spire
#

might just be worth at this point for ST

dim basalt
#

Definitely is in AA NPX SR imo

fresh spire
#

Did find some sins for Slayer where if you don't have MP you only EPx2 ms when cs is up otherwise spam execute deadge

#

small dps increase though

#

nothing huge

Watching Critcake’s most recent video, the Unholy is getting gapped for the entire first half of the key and then catches up for the rest of the dungeon in one pull lol

#

That's the most important SIM probably

#

Also what are your SIM settings

candid pecan

#

And perhaps max ilvl

#

That's why I asked for SIM settings

fresh spire
#

1:30 duration sims

pastel whale
#

That feels like a lot

#

Ah

fresh spire
#

trying to simulate close to a trash pack length

hasty pumice
#

Can you change it to 4 minutes no BL for ST and 3 minute no BL aoe?

#

Also 3 target sim extra

#

I'm at work sorry to bother haha

#

But those Sims are pretty important for high keys

#

For lower keys it doesn't matter anyways which spec you're playing

fresh spire
hasty pumice
#

What ilvl is that, cause I sure as hell am not simming for 87k ST on col

fresh spire
#

bis

hasty pumice
#

Ah

#

Makes sense

#

Wtf is the Biz build

#

I swear theres new builds every week

hasty pumice
clever crag
#

That nobody knows about outside this disc

slow saddle
#

I mean if u watched 1 biz video

#

Aka if u are remotely interrested in warrior😆

clever crag
#

I watched the guide vid

#

He did not play this build

#

Isnt that sacrifice to aoe only worth in uber high keys tho

hasty pumice
#

That's more important for skyreach / academy

#

Cause seeing these numbers I have doubts slayer will be better

#

Rn I see +20% st from col to slayer for a -23% aoe payoff which isn't necessarily worth it

#

So far seems like col will still be better overall for timer

thorn stream
#

Also slightly depends on comp, no?

#

But I ain’t pushing as high as you

#

So you know better

hasty pumice
#

Yes and no, you have 4 fights where the ST kicks in for 20% DPS vs like 13+ packs where the AoE saves timer

#

Depends on context for sure but unless you have outlaw, Phys comp doesn't really have ST blasting

#

Ret pala is good but I wouldn't say insane ST

thorn stream
#

I see

#

Im just a lazy 3.5k gamer so I don’t have to max that tbh

#

But nice insight nonetheless

clever crag
#

3.5k is not lazy 3k is lazy which is my io lo

slow saddle
#

Build is better in lower keys with less funnel play

clever crag
#

And packs die faster so the mass execution value is lower

slow saddle
#

Exactly

sick crown
#

In higher keys and coordinated environment when you pull funnel(2 extra targets) your boss damage shoots up and makes up for the lack of pure st loss colos has

slow saddle
#

17s so far the st build has served me well

#

Keep in mind our mass aoe tbh is pretty irrelevant

#

Shitters die and prio dmg is same

#

Mass aoe might.matter in very specific comps

#

But like most.pugs just mass aoe for overalls anyways

sick crown
#

My only gripe with slayer in keys is that if you don't have a shaman you have to weave in a lot more charges, especially on bosses

clever crag
#

They should bake skyfury into something

sick crown
#

And removing MS from proving slayer was very weird IMO so random

clever crag
#

We too dependent

sick crown
#

Relying mostly on autos criting and windfury just feels horrible

slow saddle
#

Reap on main st ability = bad so good its gone

slow saddle
#

Exterbated by hs

#

Our rage usage being so spiky

#

And rage inc as well, so lettin op give 10 rage would help

#

Or idea was ep giving 50% reduced ms cost per stack

sick crown
#

Agree!

Asking just for quility of life . how can i make my plater do line threashhold for when they fall under 35% health

rancid robin
#

In the "updates-midnight" it says that the buffs are 'pretty minimal'. But 20% on overpower should be big on collossus aswell since it's our top 4

#

isn't it like a 1.8% buff or smth like that. It looks rlly good aswell

exotic horizon
boreal quartz
#

It does it at 35 if u have it talented

#

Just try it out

is it this one because i have excute talented for 35% and it dose not show maybe i dont load the wrong one

not really . Guys for Closus When to Use ravager

shadow osprey
#

Right before your other cooldowns

#

Just toss it avatar, smash, and go off king

wet maple
shadow osprey
#

That and execute damage is pretty minimal in colossus play (speaking in the mythic + build and rotation) so youre only netting 1% maybe less deadge

#

I haven't done the actual math but thats the gist id assume

muted breach
#

Based on my best key dmg which is around 170-180k overal in m+, I'd be getting around ~3-4k dmg overall buff, and single target on slayer might get 4-5k, but will have to see after the buff happens (my slayer still sims 63.4k 1 target)

sudden owl
shadow osprey
#

True but you still lost damage from it (however minimal) and the damage gain from these buffs sre still offset by it, overall making it still minimal.

#

Im speaking in terms of single target. In multi in you probably still net a small bit because of overpower. 🙂

Quick question, is it better to craft your weapon as first craft? Or other pieces? New to DPS/Arms 😄

drifting sparrow
#

I would say weapon now that there's plenty of sparks until you can get PoS weapon

#

How should I choose between Seat Hands and Windrunner Spire Hands??

#

Think I'm also at the point where I will probably just use bonus rolls on Pit of Saron we're still a few weeks away from downing Belo'ren

if M+ team doesnt have a shaman, is Fury better than Arms? or still Arms

did poeple calculate the damage increase ? and will it change from closus to slayer for mythic ?

pulsar frost

i saw that but i still dont know if we going to stay closus or slayer will pull ahead

Colossus by far, still

pulsar frost
#

you asked for damage numbers theres the numbers, buffs mainly to slayer anyways

#

but i doubt itll overtake col in keys

#

raid stays the same probably

It sets Slayer back to what it was before .5

roughly

i might play slayer for weekly 10s

pulsar frost

i mean you can its just 10s

slayer just doesnt feel good to me like it was pre .5 IMO

it feels really bad to press MS

I like arms better tbh

then play arms

I like arms because arms help you eat and live your life.

The rest are slayer ST and swap off BB points for the two sweep talents on bird and salad

Is arms or fury the better spec for raiding now? Tell me what to think pls

pulsar frost

stuff dies to quick anyways

remote talon

or you could not play arms on chim since it's the worst spec in the game at it lol

pulsar frost

if your guild doesnt do as much deeps or adds dont die as quick you can pad and parse

remote talon

not that fury is much better

olive nest

I beg to differ

Killing adds matters so just be the aoe for your down group

If people are anything like me they are just stupid and its easier to ask others than trust you are going to find it on your own

And I think thats okay 🙂

why read the book if you can ask the author warriorbrain

olive nest

If you read it and head off maybe you missed a key point

If you ask directly

#

You get exact info based on your question

#

Generally

pulsar frost
#

i mean for most part you still get dircted to the updates channel

steep walrus
#

I ask alot of questions because I am always worried I will miss something on my own and having someone say it to me somehow helps me retain it and feel like im getting the parts I need

#

And idk how to tell how up to date written guides and stuff are. People seem to catch meta changes faster than people can update posts

pulsar frost
#

the same person that catches meta changes in the dps warrior spec is the same person who updates the guides and stuff so its not much worries at least compared to other specs

steep walrus

Or maybe im wrong. Im 2 weeks ish in after all. Check me out nss-bleedinghollow if you wanna see how new and bad I am

More than fine to ask all the questions about WoW/Warrior in here that you want

That’s what this place is for specifically

steep walrus

Ty

#

Is there a place on here that has the correct st slayer and colo raid builds?

olive nest
#

Wowhead is great if you just want to plug and play builds and go hit the bosses on heroic

#

You can also use the Warcraft logs website to filter by spec and boss to see what the highest ranked person used for their build

#

Whatever floats your boat

steep walrus

Okay cool ty

the normal build is fine, i ran the normal build for all up to my 16s

Because powerful momentum there is just too valuable to give up

And seat in particular, mass exe is also very valuable

If you play colo well with reasonable procs you maybe use sudden death once

tacit crystal

have you guys looked at the apl at all

umbral badger
nova marsh
#

...have you?

tacit crystal
#

yes

#

you press execute a lot more than you think in st

#

especially if you have a shaman

umbral badger
#

or are you gonna tell me that 20% of the 2% is a buff

tacit crystal
#

it is

nova marsh
#

You do not

tacit crystal
#

yes you do

nova marsh
#

Like genuinely I play with shamans all the time

umbral badger
nova marsh
#

SD is more likely to time out in my experience

hybrid needle
#

One execute is enough to ragestarve you, TECHNICALLY it deals more damage tho

nova marsh
#

And just let me slam to begin with

#

Like seriously

umbral badger
#

when ppl look for a buff for colossus ST they are looking for actual buff, not 0.4% buff from "execute"

nova marsh
#

and besides that

#

execute is fucking trash with only one talent supporting it

umbral badger
hybrid needle
#

I never said per rage spend., I said more damage, raw

nova marsh
#

Yes but the rage part is more important lowkey

umbral badger
hybrid needle
#

I highly recommend playing with an rsham, so your slam rotation in ST lets you not be ragestarved forever

nova marsh
#

ya know what actually

#

One second

umbral badger
tacit crystal
#

its still above slam in execute

#

even without mortal wounds

hybrid needle
#

Execute when above 75 rage

#

is the only part ican agree on

tacit crystal
#

i dont think you realize how common that is

rugged cobalt
#

The prio says to demolish only in colo smash windows, but with the current CDR on demolish I find myself hitting demo like 2-3 times before smash is back off CD

umbral badger
#

so it feels better to just slam

rugged cobalt
#

in AoE atleats

hybrid needle
#

75 rage in singletarget? common? in col ?

umbral badger
nova marsh
#

So actually

nova marsh
#

Lemee grab a top log from skyreach

rugged cobalt
nova marsh
#

Specfically because it's like the most ST dungeon in the season almost

tacit crystal
#

i mean how are we not saying its a buff

umbral badger
umbral badger
nova marsh
#

That is not a lot

nova marsh
#

Like lemee put this into perspective

#

execute is cast about as often as demolish is

umbral badger
#

completely

#

and in m+ when you don't have deepwoun ds it is even less than that of a buff

nova marsh
#

Something cast as often as a CD

hybrid needle
#

Whatever the case, col still gets the 20% OP buff

nova marsh
#

getting buffed

#

Is not impactful at all

#

the op buff is neat for colo but it dosen't amount to much

umbral badger
nova marsh
#

Maybe a good buff if ur running the MP variant

white canopy
#

Wont Thane Fury overall just be a stronger choice now than arms in any sens in m+?

umbral badger
#

but i've been saying it all along, colossus can't be saved with random buffs it needs a change in design. i would love if they do what arch suggested weeks ago. which is to swap fatality with executioner so i can save my self a few talents which i could then put into more op porc chance

hybrid needle
#

Highly douubt it

nova marsh
#

If you added a few modifiers to demo for ST, added stack gen onto slam or OP (WHEN THEY ARE NOT SWEPT)

#

I think colo ST could be okay

#

Honestly mainly the modifiers if they aren't willing to change stacks

white canopy
#

You could just make demolish on 1 target do 100% more damage

scarlet widget
#

Question - can I player slayer now in m+ and not feel terrible for not playing colossus? Is slayer arms actually good now in m+?

last saddle
#

im a big fan of the mortal strike resets from overpower in colo tbh

white canopy
#

For pure ST

last saddle
#

i wish slayer had that

umbral badger
# nova marsh I mean it arguably could be

i just think there is a wall that random buffs would hit because you can't avoid buffing AoE. and yes you could remove cleave from here and double or triple this value but even that won't save the spec

nova marsh
hybrid needle
nova marsh
#

I just pointed out how to completely avoid that

last saddle
umbral badger
#

my point is, there is a fundemental issue when you have to spend 231321 talent points in a skill you'd hate to use

#

which is execute

nova marsh
#

I do agree there

#

But I think that's small fish compared to demo being awful to use in ST

#

And also a coin flip

umbral badger
#

also even if you buffed demo on main target by 100% would that even save the spec ? you could do 200% and it won't

#

and at some point it becomes a demo only spec

#

which they would also not like

hybrid needle
#

lmao, its not that bad

umbral badger
#

i don't think demo is bad on ST to begin with

#

but i don't think blizzard want a spec doing 50% of their dmg in ST wit ha 30-45 sec CD :p

#

would be funny though

nova marsh
#

I mean I disagree

#

beacuse the other problem is stack gen in ST is awful

#

You are completely at the mercy of MS

#

One of these issues being fixed could genuinely give colo some decent ST

#

Or both

#

Oh yeah

#

also please give rage

umbral badger
#

i dont' think we disagree on much there :p i just think that given how demolish works and dmg split of it on pure ST with this log as an example. demolish doing 100% more dmg than it does now, demolish will end up doing most of your dmg for a key you push very rarely and i am fairly certain we had such designs in the past which blizzard did not like

scarlet widget
#

don't you guys think demolish as a spell is so clunky? like standing in 1 place for so long feels so bad sometimes and then the aoe being frontal and not circle is also weird

umbral badger
#

don't get me wrong though i'd love an insane demolish crit that i can sweep sometimes

woujld be fun
